'Superstar K 2016' upgrades the competition with a new format

The upcoming season of 'Superstar K' will be upgraded with a new format!

With more emphasis on the battle concept, auditions will be held in '20 Second Time Battles.' Contrary to the previous format, competitors will now have a limited time of 20 seconds to sing their songs. The only way they can gain more time is by receiving it from the judges. An additional 10 seconds will be added onto the clock when a judge presses the plus button, and each judge can press the button a total of 3 times for each competitor.

The goal of competitors will be to completely sing the song they have prepared without running out of time. This year's competition will be even more intense with the '20 Second Time Battle' in play!
