JYP Entertainment's The Wonder Girls are likely headed back to the Big Apple in October to be the headline performers of The New York Chuseok Festival. The Festival is held yearly to celebrate Chuseok, which is basically Korea's version of Thanksgiving. Organizers of the NY Chuseok Festival said that they're currently talking with JYP to have his artists perform and that there's a 90% chance that both JYP and The Wonder Girls will both perform. Other JYP Entertainment artists such as Min, G-Soul, 2AM, and 2PM might perform as well.

This should be a huge pickup for the New York Chuseok Festival as they were only able to get B-list KPOP stars in the past. You shouldn't worry about paying neither as the Festival is free (unless they decide to change it) to the the public.

JYP Entertainment also plans to hold an audition in New York, so all of you in the Tri-State area who think you can make it in KPOP - here's a chance to prove yourself.

ohmygosh. holy crap. NO WAY! i’m definitely going! but dang! SM global auditions are around sept.-oct., and both SM and JYP make you sign this contract when you audition that you can’t audition for another company within a month, so that means if i go audition for SM, i can’t audition for JYP. bah, screw it. HERE I COME, JYP! XD
