Most notably, IVE will be performing "Holy Moly" (2023), a fan-favorite B-side track, for the first time on stage, while Stray Kids will sing "Hall of Fame" (2023), making it the band's first time performing the song outside its concerts.

Boy band ZeroBaseOne, which will attend the awards for the first time, will unveil a stage performance stage for "Our Season" (2023).

Seventeen will reveal the Korean version of the boy band's "Ima -Even if the world ends tomorrow-" (2022), which was released in August as the lead track for the band's Japanese best album "Always Yours."

Tomorrow X Together will perform the boy band's b-side track "Farewell, Neverland" (2023) for the first time on TV.

The awards ceremony will see special collaborated performances.

The Golden Disc Awards are considered one of Korea's most prestigious music awards.

They have a unique format where dozens of nominees and multiple winners are chosen for three main categories — music, album and rookie of the year.

Twenty artists have been nominated for Album of the Year and Digital Song of the Year, and 10 artists have been nominated for Rookie Artist of the Year.

The JoongAng Group is the awards ceremony's organizer.
