dokyungsugar asked: "Do you know what type of food you will be providing the attendees?"

Bagels and cream cheese for breakfast and (I know this will sound bad but heeeeey getting Korean food catered is expensive…) Chinese food for lunch.

A lot of us will be getting Korean food after the first night for dinner though so feel free to mingle and join the groups that wil be going. There are several Korean restaurants on campus.

Anonymous asked: "So, my parents gave me registration as a present (good parents, right?) but they didn't give me any proof of registration... Is there a list of attendees that I can be checked against with a state-issued ID? or I could log into my account to prove that I AM registered? what is the most efficient way to handle the issue?"

You’ll need your ID to sign in so if your daebak parents paid your registration under your name then you should be fine. If you logged in and saw your registration payment checked off as well, then you should be good to go. (If not, then I suggest that you send an un-anonymous email to the official kpopcon13 gmail)

Anonymous asked: "If I may ask, do you know if any KPOP idols are going to be performing at KCON'13? If so, could you name them? I know there are going to be fans who are going to sing and dance covers of KPOP songs but I couldn't find out who was actually going to be there."

Hello, please direct yourself to the FAQ’13 section on the tumblr. We’ve answered this question several times, here, here, here, and here.

But in case I misread your question, we are not associated with KCON. We are KPOPCON, the first KPOP convention to have ever been established in the United States and at the collegiate level. Please read our website and about us section again if you are still confused. We are a fan made convention unlike KCON that was created by Korean entertainment companies.

Anonymous asked: "In day 2's events, will the booths be available all day since there isn't a time period for them?"

YES! :)

Anonymous asked: "for the merchants listed on the website like priscilla wu, soompi, and victoria sanchez, exactly what items will they be selling?"

Accessories, posters, buttons, etc. (They did not specify)

Anonymous asked: "Are we allowed to bring backpacks/bags to the event?"

Yes, I would suggest packing a water bottle and sweaters for day one AND TWO, especially TWO since it’s outside. The bay, as you may or may not know, has very temperamental weather. It will be hot and cold and freezing but then oddly warm again.

I’m so excited! See you soon!

Anonymous asked: "So I don't have an ID to bring to prove I registered so if I printed how the receipt from paypal with the transaction number would that be sufficient enough? Or is there something else I need?"

That’s good enough! See you soon!!!!!!!

Anonymous asked: "I need help, I have to complete the housing application and I cannot locate it, can someone pleas help?"

The housing application was up on the website. You should have logged in and the form should have popped up in the circles for you to click and finish. The housing application is now closed again. I hope you got through. :X

A Word About Housing~

If you requested housing and have received your host’s information, please be sure to email them before Friday so that they know that you’re still staying with them. Also, don’t forget to tell them when you plan to arrive so that they can plan accordingly. Some of them are part of the KPC committee and will need to be on site earlier than most registrants. :)

If you requested housing and did not receive an email from us with information about your host, you should have ALSO completed the housing form that was issued afterwards. If you did not do this, then you probably did not receive an email because that had to be completed in order for us to find you housing. If you did complete the housing form (log into your account and double check) then please send an official email to see what the housing department can do. Unfortunately, we did stop accepting housing requests last week and it is almost impossible to find people wiling to house people this late in the game but if we did make a mistake we will try to do what we can.

Anonymous asked: "I'm not familar with the UC campus so I was wondering if the event is walking distance from the nearest bart station? It would be the downtown Berkeley stop. Thanks!"

Well, I’m not going to lie…I live 10 minutes away from the registration location, Kroeber Plaza (Bancroft and College Ave) and 13 minutes away from the main location, I-House (Bancroft and Piedmont Ave). It’s quite an uphill walk. If you walk from the BART station, it takes about 25 minutes, according to google maps. If you take the bus, 12 minutes, according to google maps.

If you hate waiting for buses, paying for them, or love walking (like me)- Walk up from Shattuck until you get to Bancroft and then go up Bancroft towards campus until you get to College, where you will most likely see us with the registration table and balloons.

If you take the bus, you should take the 51B at the bus stop outside of the BART station close to Shattuck and Allston Way. The bus will go down Shattuck and up Durant Ave. You will need to get off on the College Ave. stop and then make a left towards campus again, until you reach Bancroft (which is really only one street away) and see us at the registration table.

After the registration stop, you can then hike up to I-House.

Consider it a warm up for the dance workshops. ;D

Hope this helps. See you soon~
