춤— Dance

Want to know the dances before Sept 27?

Random Play Dance is the part people most often say they wish they had prepared for. You do not need to — but if you want to walk in already knowing a chorus or two, Knox Pop Con teaches the same choreography year-round in Knoxville.

Vendor booths

All 5 booths are taken — thank you, vendors. The marketplace is free to walk into from 2:30 to 4:00 PM, and vendors stay open through Random Play Dance.

질문— Questions

Good to know

Is K-Culture Day free?

Partly. The vendor marketplace (2:30–4:00 PM) and Random Play Dance (5:30–7:00 PM) are free to walk into with no ticket. The lunch with HUNTRIX and the Korean language workshop are ticketed, starting at $10 and $20. An all-day pass covering everything is $35.

Do I need to know any Korean for the language workshop?

No. The workshop is designed for absolute beginners and is led by Seoulful Treasures. You will learn to read Hangul, the Korean alphabet, from scratch. Bring nothing but curiosity.

Where is K-Culture Day held?

Karns Community Club Event Center, 6616 Beaver Ridge Rd, Knoxville, TN 37931 — in Karns, northwest Knoxville, about 15 minutes from downtown. Parking on site is free.

Do I need to know K-pop choreography for Random Play Dance?

No. In Random Play Dance a song plays and anyone who knows that particular dance runs into the middle. Most people only jump in for the two or three songs they know, and plenty of people just watch. If you want to learn some first, Knox Pop Con runs weekly K-pop dance classes in Knoxville.

Is this event good for families?

Yes — the 12:00–1:30 PM lunch block is built around families and Young People, with activities and photos with HUNTRIX. Use promo code FAMILY15 for 15% off when buying three or more tickets.

What is HUNTRIX?

HUNTRIX is the K-pop girl group from KPop Demon Hunters. They headline the 12:00–1:30 PM lunch block at K-Culture Day, with activities and photos with the group.

Can I sell at K-Culture Day?

Vendor booths are $40 for the full day and cover both audience waves. There are five booths in total, sold directly on the Knox Pop Con vendor page rather than through the ticketing site — check that page for what is still available.

What can I win in the raffle?

Raffle prizes are ATEEZ items — t-shirts, a hoodie and a drawstring bag. The $25 pass comes with one raffle ticket and the $35 all-day pass with three. Workshop participants can buy additional tickets at $2 for one, $5 for three, or $10 for seven.

Who can get the gacha and raffle tickets?

Workshop participants only. ATEEZ gacha items and raffle tickets come with the workshop passes and additional raffle tickets are sold to workshop participants. You must be present during the workshop to win a raffle prize, and prizes must be claimed at the event.
