We weren't kidding about reliving SMTOWN '10 here at allkpop: our 6Theory media team is about to bring you some of the most exclusive, high quality photos of the entire concert!
If you weren't able to make it to SMTOWN this year, you can still live the experience vicariously through our concert coverage, which follows SM Entertainment's hottest stars from the pre-concert press conference all the way to the red carpet of the after-party!
This article marks the first installment of our five-part RELIVE SMTOWN '10 series, and it features TVXQ's Yunho & Changmin, BoA, Kangta, Super Junior, SNSD, SHINee and more at the press conference before the concert. The idols expressed their gratitude and surprise at the overwhelming welcome from fans since their arrival, as well as their excitement of getting to perform at Staples Center, one of the most famous stadiums in the world. Some performers even mentioned places they visited before the concert: it's known that f(x) visited the campus of USC (University of Southern California), a few members of SNSD went shopping and artists visited Koreatown together for quite a few meals over the weekend.

Oh and by the way, yes, that photo at the top of the article is real! We were searching for a message all over Los Angeles and Matty Song found it for us - written in the sky! ;)

In all seriousness though, the feeling you get when you see random people on the streets of LA stop and point to a message in the sky about a kpop concert and allkpop is totally indescribable.
The photo at the top of the article was taken by Annie Yu, who won our quick photo contest and will receive an allkpop gift package in the mail soon. If you happened to be in Los Angeles and caught this skytype message on tape or photo, send them into us via our tips form with 'allkpop's skytype at SMTOWN' as the subject line!
Stay tuned for exclusive footage of the press conference, and, of course, the concert itself!
