The Golden Disc Awards will meet fans for the first time in the K-Pop awards ceremony through the metaverse.

Various free fan events will be prepared through Two Tree's metaverse platform "Second Block." The Golden Disc Awards metaverse will feature an exhibition hall and a K-pop artist backstage tour event.

Considering the COVID-19 pandemic situation, with the in-person event confirmed, it is expected to be a special time for fans to communicate directly with artists.

The Golden Disc Awards metaverse will open on Second Block on January 4th. Users can participate in the exhibition hall and backstage tour events in the Golden Disc Awards metaverse through avatars, free of charge.

The artists participating in the backstage tour are ENHYPEN, Jeon Somi, and STAYC. Through advance application, selected fans will be able to enter the artists' backstage at a designated time, and a video chat with the artists will open, allowing real-time communication such as cheering on artists preparing for the live awards ceremony.

The artists will hold backstage tour events three times each on the same day. Fans who participate will be selected by lottery, 300 people per artist, through advance recruitment for three days from January 4th to 6th.

Applications can be made through the PC Chrome browser. "Second Block" will select 900 winners at 1 PM on January 7th and will notify them through the Golden Disc Awards block and email.

Even users who could not participate in the backstage tour can enter the Golden Disc exhibition block and watch spotlight videos of Golden Disc Awards nominees. Also, up to 300 users can connect in real-time, and users can video chat with each other if they get close.

Detailed information about the Golden Disc Awards backstage tour, featuring ENHYPEN, Jeon Somi, and STAYC, can be found on the Second Block homepage.
