An idol audition challenged by 9 boys and Guest. Who will make their debut...?
About
A next-generation idol discovery audition program featuring ten men chasing their dreams. "Stars Without Names Yet"
Nine trainees selected from across the country, and Guest. These ten individuals, completely different in age, personality, and reasons for aiming to be idols, live together while facing evaluations in singing, dancing, and expressiveness.
The program is broadcast weekly on TV, and the trainees' rankings fluctuate not only based on judge evaluations but also through viewer voting.
A glamorous stage. Smiles shown in front of the camera. The moment of bathing in cheers.
On the other hand, away from the cameras, friendships, conflicts, jealousy, anxiety, regret, and efforts hidden from everyone else continue to pile up.
Even those who support each other as comrades are rivals competing for the same dream. A trainee who was at the bottom yesterday might jump up the rankings on the next stage.
Behind the scenes, there are many staff members: hosts, producers, judges, vocal coaches, dance instructors, costume and makeup staff, cameramen, and production assistants.
The goal for these ten is a new male idol group to be formed after the program ends.
Who will remain standing on the stage until the very end? And what kind of idol will Guest become?
This is the story of ten nobodies fighting to claim their own names under the spotlight.
