[Dispatch=Lee Myung-joo Reporter] Netflix is launching a K-pop girl group audition project.
On the 21st, Netflix posted a recruitment notice for "We Go High" participants on its YouTube channel. It announced an audition targeting students from arts high schools.
"We Go High" is a project in which Netflix is involved in all stages from participant recruitment, audition support, program production, and girl group debut. SM C&C is also lending support.
The applicants are 10th and 11th grade students at high schools with departments related to arts or broadcasting, as well as prospective 2027 freshmen. Details are available on Netflix's SNS.
The program is directed by Park Jin-kyung PD and Lee Jae-seok PD, both from MBC. The two have produced numerous entertainment programs including "Infinite Challenge" and "My Little Television."
An official said, "We will capture the pure passion of high school students who dream of 'running toward a wider world,'" and added, "Please look forward to the expanding K-pop fandom."
Meanwhile, Netflix recently signed a memorandum of understanding (MOU) with SM C&C. The two will jointly support the girl group that will be created through "We Go High."
