Do these dates look familiar? Popular comic book convention San Diego Comic-Con will be held the same weekend as KCON LA 2024. 

Netizens are naturally disappointed. For one thing, if you’re part of both fandoms and want to attend these conventions, you will have to pick and choose.

Additionally, it will make everything more expensive than it already is due to the demand. Hotels and airline ticket prices will both skyrocket, although these two locations are about two hours apart.
