Hybe, the agency that represents BTS, and FNC Entertainment, the firm that represents SF9, announced intentions to organize a series of auditions in the United States in order to discover fresh talents on Monday.
The first joint auditions for Hybe's seven companies — Big Hit Music, Belift Lab, Source Music, Pledis Entertainment, Koz Entertainment, Hybe Labels Japan, and Hybe America — will take place in Las Vegas next month, according to a press release.
The "Hybe Multi-label Audition" will be held four times on April 8-9 and April 15-16 at the Hybe Music Festival. Participants can apply for the auditions until April 4, regardless of gender, if they wish to be considered as a next-generation global artist born between 2003 and 2011 and born in the United States.
Applicants can choose their preferred disciplines of study from a list that includes singing, rapping, and dancing. While Hybe intends to provide more specific information about the auditions in the near future, the agency indicated that information can be obtained on the Hybe labels auditions Instagram account and its YouTube channel.
BTS, Tomorrow X Together, Enhypen, Seventeen, Fromis 9, and Zico are among the companies managed by Hybe subsidiaries. SB Projects, an associate record label of Hybe America, is responsible for the management of internationally known musicians such as Justin Bieber, Ariana Grande, and J Balvin.
In addition, FNC will organize a series of throughout-person auditions in the United States, which will begin next month. "2022 FNC Pick Up Stage: USA Tour" will be the name of the forthcoming audition, which will take place in six cities sixteen times.
It will begin in Seattle on April 18-19 and move to San Francisco on April 20-21, Los Angeles on April 22-24, and New Jersey and New York on April 28-May 1. It will then return to Seattle on April 18-19 before concluding in Seattle on April 19. You can apply for the audition regardless of your gender if you were born between 2003 and 2010.
Applicants are required to present their applications in person on the regional auditon days that have been set out for them. Voice, rap, dancing, acting, appearance, musical instrument performance and modeling are the many disciplines in which candidates might be recruited. In order to be considered, candidates must submit an application through one of two methods: regional academy visits in six locations, or public auditions in Los Angeles, New Jersey, and New York City.
The final recruits will be chosen from each level of the recruitment process, which includes regional auditions, executive auditions, and final auditions, among others. They will be given the option to sign a trainee contract with the entertainment company and to get systematic management and professional training from the company.
The tryouts are part of the "FNC Pick Up Stage" project, which is being run by the K-pop giant with the goal of releasing next-generation musicians. According to the agency, more specific information about the auditions can be obtained on the company's website as well as on its social media accounts.
