On August 22, the highly anticipated “2024 K-World Dream Awards,”known as the world’s largest K-pop festival, commenced with the goal of drawing 10 million K-pop enthusiasts to Korea.
Initially called the Soribada Best K-Music Awards and the K Global Heart Dream Awards, the ceremony took place at Jamsil Indoor Stadium in Songpa-gu, Seoul.

This impressive lineup captured the attention of K-pop fans worldwide.
Jeon Hyun Moo and Jang Doyeon, who were recognized as “Global Top MCs”for the second year in a row, once again took charge and brought even more excitement to the event under its newly revamped name.
At the awards ceremony, each group delivered a special performance. The collaboration stage between soloists Chaeyeon and Ha Sungwoon, who were both contestants on Mnet’s “Produce”series, also garnered attention.
The announcement of the winners, which was also the most thrilling part of the event, was showcased during the proceedings.
