Licensed to Pasadena, California, KAZN serves the Greater Los Angeles area with a Mandarin Chinese language format.

In 1988, the station was sold to NetworksAmerica; the following year, it converted to a multilingual Asian format in Japanese, Chinese, Korean, Tagalog, and Vietnamese and became KAZN.

KAZN broadcasts talk and entertainment shows geared towards Mandarin speakers in the Los Angeles area.

Founded as KAGH by Rose Bowl Broadcasters, a company headed by attorney Andrew G. Haley, the station signed on the air July 22, 1948 and was first licensed on August 6 that year as a 1,000-watt daytime-only station, with Pasadena its city of license.
