The nominee list for the ’39th Golden Disc Awards’, set to be held on January 4th and 5th, 2025, at the PayPay Dome in Fukuoka, Japan, has finally been revealed. The Golden Disc Awards Secretariat announced the nominees for major categories such as Digital Song of the Year, Album of the Year, and Rookie of the Year through their official website and SNS channels at noon on December 2nd.
The nominees were selected based on songs and albums released from early November 2023 to early November 2024, evaluated through quantitative analysis. If an artist released multiple songs or albums, the representative work with the highest sales in each category was chosen as a nominee. In the Digital Song of the Year category, a variety of artists including NewJeans, DAY6, and LE SSERAFIM have been nominated. For Album of the Year, SEVENTEEN, Stray Kids, and IVE are among the contenders.
The Rookie of the Year category was determined by combining digital song usage and album sales, with NOWADAYS, BABYMONSTER, and ILLIT among the nominees.
The awards ceremony will be divided into a Digital Song section on January 4th and an Album section on January 5th, with Sung SiKyung, Cha EunWoo, and Moon GaYoung set to lead as hosts. Additionally, the artist lineup for performances will be unveiled on December 3rd and 9th through official SNS channels. Detailed information on nominees and the selection process for winners in each category can be found on the official Golden Disc Awards website.
There is much anticipation about which artists will claim the highest honors at this event. We look forward to the upcoming artist lineup announcements and diverse moments of the awards ceremony.
