Happy Participants, More Events Coming
David shared that many of the competitors were very happy with the event and asked for more like it in the future. “They enjoyed it and want more. So we plan to do K-CAN twice a year again starting this year,” he said.
He also plans to improve the experience for guests who come to watch. “During judging, guests don’t have much to do. So we want to make more fun activities for them too,” David added.
K-CAN is back and it's just getting started again. With more events planned and big support from the car audio community, 2025 could be the beginning of a louder, better future for car audio lovers in Korea. Yes, we CAN! (Febri)
