KCON has been successful in networking poongmul groups at SUNY Buffalo, Syracuse
University, Cornell University, New York University, and SUNY StonyBrook together
and is excited about new poongmul groups being established at Columbia University and
at Fashion Institute of Technology(FIT). KCON believe that such a network of different
collegiate groups will be beneficiary not only among themselves but also for the greater
good of the Korean American Community.
