JT Korea Entertainment (hereinafter referred to as JT Korea) is introducing a unique global idol K-POP audition program.

JT Korea will produce a large-scale and unique global K-POP audition program in the second half of this year. This audition program for this large-scale project is not a simple debut competition, but will realistically capture the genuine growth and journey toward dreams of girls around the world. It presents an innovative paradigm that goes beyond the existing audition format.

This program will contain the touching stories of girls from each country, including North America, South America, Europe, Japan, Southeast Asia, and Korea, who dream of becoming K-POP idols in a documentary format. In particular, participants with diverse cultures and individualities from each country will be selected from their respective regions and will grow into new K-POP stars through solidarity and competition across borders.

In addition, the stage for this audition project is not limited to a single country or space. While most existing auditions are filmed and trained in limited domestic locations, this program will be filmed in cities around the world. It is also structured in a multidimensional way that connects training, mission execution, and cultural exchanges between participants through real-time online connections. This metaverse approach that crosses reality and online will provide a more immersive experience not only for participants but also for global viewers.

An official from the project said, “This program is not simply a competition for debut, but a journey that connects the passion, sincerity, and potential of girls around the world. It will be a new audition format that breaks down the boundaries between reality and the virtual.”

Meanwhile, the JT Korea Global Audition Project, which will feature active K-pop artists, professional mentors, and star MCs who will complete the final stage of debut together, is scheduled to be simultaneously released this fall through major domestic broadcasters and global OTTs.
