This year, the 56th Baeksang Arts Awards were held at the Korea International Exhibition Centre (KINTEX), in Ilsanseo Gu of Gyeonggi Province. Due to the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic, the organisers decided to not host the event with a live audience. Instead, all viewers had to watch the event from their homes. The event is now available for streaming online.
