The '38th Golden Disk Awards' goes to Jakarta, Indonesia.
On October 31, the Golden Disc Awards office announced, "The 38th Golden Disc Awards with Mandiri will be held at the Jakarta International Stadium (JIS), Indonesia on January 6, 2024."
Jakarta International Stadium can accommodate about 80,000 people. It is also the site of the U-17 World Cup, which will be held from November 10th. Mandiri is Indonesia's largest commercial bank.
The Golden Disc Awards Secretariat said, "K-pop's influence in the global market is gradually expanding, and requests from Asian fans who want to meet K-pop artists are continuing. 
In keeping with this trend, we are providing a platform where a wider range of domestic and foreign music fans can communicate through K-pop. “We decided to hold the event in Jakarta to create a space,” he explained.
This is the fifth time the ‘Golden Disk Awards’ has been held overseas. Following the 26th Japan, 27th Malaysia, 29th China, and 37th Thailand, we are waiting to meet Asian fans.
Golden Disk, which selects popular music that has been greatly loved by music fans throughout the year and settles the accounts, began in 1986. Starting from the 21st, awards will be given in the music and album categories, reflecting the trend of music consumption patterns expanding from albums to digital sound sources. Candidates for each category for the 38th edition will be revealed on the official website and SNS on December 4th.
