On November 9, the 2018 Korea Popular Music Awards (hereafter KPMA) officially announced that its awards show would take place on December 20 at the Ilsan KINTEX.

The upcoming award ceremony will be jointly organized by the Korea Singers Association, the Korea Entertainment Producer’s Association, the Recording Industry Association of Korea, the Federation of Korean Music Performers, and the Korea Music Copyright Association.

The 2018 KPMA organizing committee remarked, “[The 2018 KPMA] will be a valuable award ceremony that gathers the old generations who have led the Korean music industry in the past and the new generations who will lead it in the future, as well as the K-pop stars who are standing at the forefront of the Korean wave, in one place.”

The 2018 KPMA will determine its awards using both online voting and a panel of expert judges. Online voting will begin on November 16 and will take place on the awards show’s official website.
