The ‘All India K-pop Contest 2024’ is held pan-India over a period of about six months with four rounds; online, regional, semi-finale and grand finale. The online qualifiers round was held from May 17th to June 28th, and in this round K-pop lovers from across the country shared an online video of their performance. This was evaluated based on certain parameters, such as, skill, expression and pronunciation, similarity to the original song, and stage presence of the participants. The selected participants from online preliminaries will showcase their skills in the regional round to be held at 11 cities.
Bengaluru on Saturday will kickstart the regional round with 74 participants showing their exceptional skills in the form of 15 dance and 15 vocal performances. The winner of each of these groups will move onto the semi-final round that is to be held in New Delhi on October 19th, 2024.
