JAKARTA - After a year and a half since debut, NewJeans finally appeared for the first time in Indonesia through the 2024 Golden Disc Awards at the Jakarta International Stadium (JIS) on Saturday, January 6.

In front of tens of thousands of Indonesian K-pop music lovers, Minji, Hanni, Danielle, Haerin and Hyein appeared like angels with white wing ornaments attached to their backs.

NewJeans' performance began with the screening of Get Up footage, a 36-second song that amazed R&B music lovers by the busy part of the song one with modern sound, sweet chord progression, and fresh sound.

After showing their ability to dance with dozens of background dancers on stage, NewJeans then brought Cool With You, one of their mainstays from EP Get Up.

Then, NewJeans performed Ditto, a phenomenal song which was later named the best song throughout 2023.

The appearance of ADOR's group seemed to bring everyone who filled JIS together in a big choir. It doesn't matter which group the lightstick from or who they are with, everyone will sing Ditto. Of course most of them are holding cellphones to record, considering that the moment will be a separate history in the future.

NewJeans' appearance is fairly short, indeed the Golden Disc Awards are not specifically intended for them, there are still appearances from other groups and singers who are no less exciting.

NewJeans also brought home two trophies, one of which was the Daesang category (Grand Prize). In the winning speech, NewJeans members thanked many for supporting them so far.

What NewJeans achieved was even more complete with Min Hee Jin being the best producer. He is the CEO of ADOR and the main figure behind the fantastic journey of NewJeans so far.

At the end of the winning speech, Minji as the oldest member gave his best greetings to everyone.

"Everything, good luck this year," concluded Minji.
