Life And Career Of Korean Music Artists: What Does It Take?
Practice And Auditions
Getting into an agency and signing up as a trainee is the first goal. A talent scout might discover the lucky ones at random, but most idol wannabes must audition. Koreaboo reports that it is not uncommon for kids to participate in 30 or more auditions. Most children audition as early as ten years old, so one can only imagine when they start practicing singing and dancing.
Children worldwide can audition for entertainment agencies online and in person, extending the group’s reach to an even larger audience. Lisa from Blackpink is one example. She is one of the foreign idols who passed YG’s audition in Thailand during her time and made the cut.
