HYBE is embarking on a global talent search by hosting an integrated audition across its multi-labels.

On July 4th, HYBE announced the launch of the “HYBE MUSIC GROUP AUDITION” through the official SNS channels of HYBE LABELS AUDITION. This marks the first integrated audition conducted at the HYBE MUSIC GROUP level. The accompanying poster features an image of infinitely connected golden rings and the message "A new stage is opening," heightening anticipation for the discovery of next-generation stars.

With the “HYBE MUSIC GROUP AUDITION,” participants can apply to all eight labels under HYBE with a single application. Big Hit Music, BELIFT LAB, SOURCE MUSIC, PLEDIS Entertainment, KOZ Entertainment, ADOR, and YX LABELS are all joining the search for new talent. Furthermore, Ryan Tedder, a multi-platinum producer who has won four Grammy Awards, will also be participating in the audition through HYBE X RYAN TEDDER.

The audition is open to applicants of any gender and nationality born after 2007. Applicants can showcase their talents in singing, dancing, or any other area where they can demonstrate their unique skills and charm. Online applications will be accepted from July 14th to September 7th. In Japan, pop-up events related to the eight participating labels will be held. These events will take place at MIL Gallery & MIL 2ND in Shibuya, Tokyo, for four days from August 27th to 30th.

Meanwhile, HYBE is expanding its music business globally through HYBE MUSIC GROUP APAC. In addition to HYBE America, which is based in the world’s largest music market, the United States, HYBE also has overseas subsidiaries such as HYBE Japan and HYBE Latin America, where it nurtures artists. The company aims to launch its Indian subsidiary between September and October.
