About
Welcome to the very first Korean edition of JSConf!
JSConf Korea is a community conference that pushes the boundaries of what can be created using JavaScript, and an opportunity for people with diverse experiences to share their stories and positive energy with each other.
Our mission is to make the Korean technology community more daring, more diverse, and more human; in short, we just want to make things better.
Our Program
The conference takes place on Tuesday, September 3, 2019 from 10am to 6pm in Seoul, Korea, at the international convention center COEX.
The day will be full of talks as diverse as the JavaScript ecosystem, tutorials for a fun and hands-on learning experience, as well as booth programs and lightning talks by our sponsor companies and communities.

Seoul
Seoul is a vast and vibrant city of art, technology, and two thousand years of history. When you’re not attending the conference, explore the city with its ultra-efficient subway system that will get you nearly anywhere, including:
- Cafes and pubs in Hanoks with a contemporary spin,
- K-beauty stores with an endless variety of facemasks,
- Muk-bang-worthy food destinations,
- Hiking trails for a half day of hiding away in the nature,
- Well-curated history and art museums
Here is a list of the best attractions, cafes, and pubs in Seoul, personally curated by Sona and Jin, the coffee, beer, and fun connoisseurs.
