International auditions to be held to find members of global idol group, 'Dy-Nasty'

SBS will be broadcasting a globally-targeted singing auditions program, called the 'Final Fifteen'. 'Final Fifteen' will be a '"Super idol" audition project', where they will go on a hunt for talented singers to create the first worldwide idol group. Auditions for this 'Super idol' project will take place in Korea, China, Japan, the United States, and Southeast Asia. 15 people from each gender will be picked to form a total of 30 finalists for the show. 3 will be picked from Korea, 2 from Japan, 2 from China, 6 from America and 2 from Southeast Asia. The final night of voting will take place in America, where one winner will be chosen from each group of countries. The 5 winners will then form the finalized idol group, and will debut and release an album under the name, 'Dy-Nasty'. According to Asia's directing manager of the show, auditions for Korea will commence in June, and the preliminary and final rounds will be shown in 16 episodes through SBS, over a period of 4 months. However, discussions with SBS are still currently underway on whether to cut down audition rounds to 8 episodes instead. Online applications for the show will open up later in the year, and those selected from the online preliminary screening will have their real stage audition in April of 2011. The Judges for 'Final Fifteen' have not yet been decided, however it is likely that the panel will consist of the top singers and producers of Korea. Once each group of countries hold and select their final contestants, they will travel to Las Vegas where they will stay at a hotel penthouse, battling against each other in various survival missions. The final rounds is also scheduled to air on America's MTV channel, of which the host will be famous rapper, Akon. In addition, the finalized group of 'Dy-Nasty' will first make their debut in America, and will be contracted for 5 years with famous American record company, Interscope Records.
