The award for Best New Artist will be a battle of the females at this year's Golden Disk Awards, which will air on December 10th at 7PM. As you all undoubtedly know, 2009 has been the year of female idol groups. In the past, the nomination for best new artist would have gone to comparable number of male and female idol groups, but for this year, all four groups nominated happen to only be girl groups. Sorry, guys! The four female idol group that will be duking it out at this year's Golden Disk Awards are 2NE1, 4minute, T-ara (Tiara), and f(x). As none of the four groups released a full-length album this year, album sales will not be a factor in deciding which group will receive the coveted award. Instead, the groups will be scored based on sales from their singles, popularity and scores from judges. Who do you think will take home the prize when the Golden Disk Awards airs this year? I'm personally a huge fan of 2NE1, since I Don't Care was on constant repeat when I was going through a tough break-up.
