KCON:TACT SEASON 2 is just over a week away and we wanted to take this chance to completely go through the event from A-Z. Our goal is to make this the main resource for any information you may need about membership, broadcast programs, new features, artist interaction events, and more. We've done our best to keep it very link focused so you can take direct action on the things you want to do and on the lighter side with images since you are undoubtedly being inundated with square graphics every way you turn. (Can we get a hexagon? Triangle? Trapezoid?) Thank you as always for staying with us and we can't wait to see you at KCON:TACT! MEMBERSHIP For KCON:TACT SEASON 2, there are two types of membership--KCON:TACT and KCON:TACT PLUS. We'll go through in more detail below, but the tiers differ on four points: Price, Channel, Replay, FanPick Cam. Both tiers will be able to view all of the scheduled programs and participate in any of the artist interaction events (Fan Featuring, LIVE KCON-ers, Live Premiere, etc...) KCON:TACT tier is $19.99 and it is available via KCON official and Mnet K-Pop YouTube channels. It will offer fans the ability to replay each day's concert + M&G as a livestream replay (i.e. you will not be able to navigate to different moments as with VOD), but will not offer FanPick Cam, a feature that allows you to control the camera to focus on your favorite idols. KCON:TACT PLUS tier is $24.99 and it is only available on KCON official. This is so we can keep the premium features on a single channel. This tier will give fans a VOD of each day's concert + M&G after the livestream finishes (i.e. you will be able to replay anytime you want and navigate) and will offer the FanPick Cam. To join the KCON:TACT Tier: KCON Official: https://youtube.com/kcon/join Mnet K-POP: https://youtube.com/mnet/join To join the KCON:TACT PLUS Tier: KCON Official: https://youtube.com/kcon/join Please note, you absolutely must be a member (either KCON:TACT or KCON:TACT PLUS) to participate in Fan Featuring, LIVE KCON-ers, and Fan Zone. For LIVE PREMIERE, you must be a member to participate, but viewing is open to the general public. How To Watch KCON:TACT SEASON 2 KCON:TACT can be viewed on KCON official, Mnet K-POP, and directly here on KCONUSA. Please note, if you view on KCONUSA you will be able to access Super Chat just as if you were viewing on YouTube.

Please check the below "Schedule" section to see which days each artist will appear. Please note that some artists may have a concert on one day and an M&G on another day. For example, A.C.E has a concert on NIGHT 2 but has an M&G on NIGHT 4. AB6IX, ACE, ATEEZ, CLC, DAY6, DREAMCATCHER, EVERGLOW, GHOST9, HA SUNG WOON, IZ*ONE, JO1, KARD, KIM JAE HWAN, KIM WOO SEOK, LEE EUN SANG, LOONA, MAMAMOO, NATTY, ONEUS, ONF, PARK JI HOON, SUNMI, THE BOYZ, TOO, VERIVERY, WEI, WOODZ. NEW FEATURES We'll be going into more detail about Fan Request (giving you links to each artist) as well as LIVE KCON-ers and M&G below, but we want to give you a quick rundown of what's new at KCON:TACT SEASON 2. Please note, all of these features are only available to those who are viewing KCON:TACT via YouTube. In an effort to make KCON:TACT more available in nations where YouTube memberships are not available there are platforms to view the stream, however all of the actual interactive elements, concert replays + VOD are only available to those who are viewing via YouTube. FanPick Cam: During the concert + M&G block of programming we're giving fans the ability to essentially watch KCON:TACT as a fan cam. You'll have the ability to rotate the camera to watch your bias(es) perform. Fan Request: This social only campaign asks fans to "request" the artists they would like to see in collabs or which songs they would like to see artists perform or even what concept you would like to see them in. While it does seem too close to the event for your voice to be heard, live events are always planned with a certain amount "on the fly" so please send us your requests. In the "Fan Request" section below we'll link to each of the posts for each artist. Live Chat + Artist Interaction @ M&G: We heard that you wanted more interaction possibilities with the artists as you would at KCON's artist engagement. So, for this KCON:TACT we'll have the ability for the artists to interact with fans via SuperChat and more chances for fans to join in games during the the M&G. SCHEDULE The "Schedule" tab allows you to both view the complete KCON:TACT schedule of events and also add events to your personal calendar. Never miss a KCON:TACT moment! For ease of viewing, you may also view the schedule via the two images below as well. View Schedule: https://kconusa.com/kcontact/schedule/ BROADCAST PROGRAMS Let's go through each of the program blocks that you see on the schedule above. Concert + M&G: The concert and meet & greet content block will run similarly to KCON:TACT 2020 SUMMER with some key additional features: 1) FanPick Cam, 2) Upgraded AR and stage technology, 3) Increased fan interaction during M&G. This livestream is only available to members and will begin at 5 AM PT. M&G: This one is a little confusing since we also have M&G as part of the above program block. To explain, from Monday to Thursday KCON:TACT will operate more like a KCON Convention and feature additional M&G sessions (artist engagement), classes (panels/workshops), and the KCON Studio. These M&G sessions are only different in that they are broadcast on the weekdays. This livestream is only available to members and will begin at 5 AM PT. KCON STUDIO X DIA TV DELIVERY: As
