● Eligibility :
To participate as a performer (individual or team), you must be of Malaysia origin, living in Malaysia and over 15 years of age. (Parents should never have acquired Korean nationality)
● Online Audition Video :
Prepare and upload your performance video (ideally between 4-5 minutes) on YouTube and let us know the link through the Application Form. The Online Audition is for screening purpose only, and if you wish, you may prepare and perform a different item at the Festival should you be selected, with the approval of the Embassy.

[Q & A]
1. If you feel compelled to, you may send in both your Vocal and Vocal with Dance category videos (i.e. 2 different videos). However, only one ‘item’ will make to the live stage competition. In other words, no participant will have double performance.
2. You can participate as solo, with no ‘team members’.
3. As for the ‘Vocal with Dance’ category, you are required to sing as well as dance. Of course, you can include some moves (but not main) with Vocal only category.
4. With the choice of songs, any version is fine including Teledrama OSTs – as long as they are considered ‘K-pop’.
5. Those with a foreign nationality may participate in the online audition, however due to the regulations from the headquarters in Korea, one would not be able to ‘represent’ Malaysia as a winner of the qualifier. Only Malaysian citizen and living in Malaysia can reach a final competition in Korea.
6. The Online Audition Video has to be a non-edited ‘live performance’.
7. For the mixed song, maximum 2 songs (only same group’s 2 songs) are permitted.
Once again, thank you for your interest and support.
