HCM CITY — The Seoul-based Big Hit Entertainment Company, who manages the international boy band BTS, is looking for talent in Việt Nam for a girl band.
They will select girls in 16 cities including New York, Melbourne, Osaka, Bangkok, Hà Nội and HCM City.
The winners will be offered training in voice, dance and performance skills, and will have opportunities to work with Korean and Vietnamese music producers, composers and singers.
Big Hit teen bands have members aged from early teens to mid-20s, and the singers are selected from hundreds of candidates across Korea and in other countries.
The singers receive training in music, dance, composing and performance. English and Korean language skills are also included.
In Việt Nam, girl and boy bands have taken the industry by storm in recent years.
Teen bands in HCM City, such as P366, SG048 and Soul Club, have become new music icons for young audiences.
