SM Entertainment unveils debut selection process for the first time
'NCT Universe: LASTART' (hereafter referred to as 'LASTART') will be broadcast for the first time on the 27th through Japan's Hulu and Nippon TV channels, North America, Central America and South America KOCOWA+ (wavve Americas), Korea's ENA channel and TVing. On this day's broadcast, SMROOKIES (SM Rookies) Xion (SION) & Yushi (YUSHI), and the first gateway of the trainees, the 'Two-Person Stage Mission' site will be revealed.
Like SM's first audition program, 'LASTART' will feature BoA and Eunhyuk as artist directors, and SHINee's Key as special artist director. At the gathering of the three, BoA said, “I can’t lie. I think (trainees) will say that you have to do really well to do well. As he said, "I was famous for being a poison speaker," the attention is focused on what kind of results the three judges will bring.
In particular, on this day's broadcast, the performances of SMROOKIES Shion and Yuushi, who confirmed their debut as NCT NEW TEAM, will be released. Here, Key, who heard the behind-the-scenes of SM casting of Shion and Yuushi, who spent 4 and 5 years practicing respectively, said, “If you have money taken away, you have to talk to the (SM) casting team,” raising questions about what kind of episode it will be.
The stages of the 10 trainees, excluding Shion and Yushi, will also be revealed for the first time. Among the 10 trainees who had to get a chance to debut, it was known that Anderson and Haruta, who were the first to go on stage, were chick trainees who had been practicing for 6 months and 8 months, respectively. , The evaluation of the artist directors who watched their stage is another point to watch.
Expectations are rising for the skills of the SM trainees who will be unveiled for the first time in a tense atmosphere, while the new start of the trainees to debut as the last group of NCT, 'NCT Universe: LASTART', will be held on the 27th Japan Hulu and Nippon TV channels, North America Central America South America KOCOWA+ (wavve Americas), available through Korean ENA channels and TVing.
