The first batch of artists set to perform for the Golden Disk Awards ceremony have been announced.
The lineup of stars scheduled to appear at the upcoming music awards show in China include BEAST, BTS, f(x), SHINee, VIXX, and Big Bang.
One affiliate for the event revealed that the Golden Disk Awards will showcase huge performances from hit K-pop stars.
"For the 30th anniversary of the Golden Disc Awards, we are preparing performances on a larger scale than we’ve ever done," said the rep, as reported by Soompi. "Twenty of the top artists in K-pop will be attending the ceremony."
The Golden Disk Awards will be held at the Shenzhen Bay Sports Center in Shenzhen, China on Jan. 20 and 21.
Despite the big name lineup, many Korean fans have expressed displeasure over the awards show's location.
"Why is being held in China? Happy to see Big Bang and B2ST though, it's been a while," said a fan, as translated by the blog Netizenbuzz.
Voting for the event is now open through the award festival's official website.
