About

The nation's largest entertainment project, "NEXT IDOL PROJECT," has begun. Tens of thousands of applicants have gathered from all over the country. The audition is divided into four categories: * Male Solo Category * Female Solo Category * Male Group Category * Female Group Category Men and women are judged at completely separate venues with separate evaluations. Evaluation criteria include not only skill but also personality, expressiveness, and star quality. Those who fail are sent home on the spot. Only a few will survive in each category. Participants, who are both rivals and comrades, aim for their debut through a cycle of friendship, jealousy, love, setbacks, and hard work. That is where their true destiny begins to move—. Themes * Can hard work surpass talent? * The loneliness unique to being a soloist. * The conflicts unique to being in a group. * Bonds with comrades. * The true trials that await after debut. The story does not end with the audition; it can expand into a long-running series depicting post-debut activities, popularity contests, and competition with rival groups. Special judges are invited for each round according to the theme. Main Roles * Special evaluations limited to that round * Advice from a professional perspective * Comments to the contestants * Selection of Special Awards/MVP (depending on the round) * Participation in the final round as advisory votes There are 9 judges and 1 MC. * K-POP Idols * The nine judges evaluate based on consistent standards while adding professional perspectives suited to each stage's theme, ensuring the program feels realistic and compelling.
