The KBS Song Festival (Korean: KBS 가요대축제; RR: KBS Gayo Daechukje) is an annual South Korean music show that airs on the Korean Broadcasting System (KBS) at the end of every year. It first aired in 1965 as an awards show, but KBS discontinued the awards ceremony in 2006.[1][2] It has continued since as a music festival without giving awards most years. However, awards were given in 2013.[3]

The 2018 KBS Song Festival with the theme, "A Huge Fantastical Party", was held at the KBS Hall on 28 December 2018.[4]

History

Park Bo-gum and Seolhyun, hosts of 2016 KBS Song Festival

The program was first broadcast in 1965 by the Tongyang Broadcasting Company (TBC), where it was known as the TBC Broadcast Music Awards (Korean: TBC 방송가요대상).[1] Singer Choi Hee-Joon won the first award in 1965. Separate awards were then given for male and female artists from 1966 to 1986[5]

In 1981, the South Korean government forced TBC to merge with the Korean Broadcasting System (KBS).[6] Following the merger, the program's name was changed to the KBS Music Awards (Korean: KBS 가요대상; RR: KBS Gayo Daesang). It aired on KBS1 every year on 30 December until 1994, when the program moved to KBS2.

In 2005, Kim Jong-kook became the last singer to win the KBS Music Award.[5] In 2006, the program's name was changed to the KBS Song Festival, and the network turned the program into a non-competitive music festival rather than an awards show.[2]

Between 2006 and 2016, the festival typically featured performances by 20 to 30 K-pop groups and singers. However, in 2017, KBS scaled back the festival to include only eight groups, two singers, and contestants from the KBS2 reality show The Unit.[7]

The event has always took place at KBS Hall, with 2 exceptions. In 2015, the event was held in Gocheok Sky Dome and for the 2019 event, it was held in KINTEX.
