Excitement is growing for 'Project 7,' which has announced its lineup of directors and MCs: Ryan Jhun, Ha Sungwoon, Lee Haein, RyuD, Bada Lee, and Lee Soohyuk. This bold team promises to bring a fresh new approach to the show, exceeding expectations.
'Project 7', airing on JTBC, is a unique new idol audition show. Unlike traditional shows where viewers simply vote, this one introduces a new concept of "assembly and enhancement."

Ha Sungwoon, the vocal director, debuted as the main vocalist of Wanna One after appearing on 'Produce 101'. He will share his experience and provide sincere, tailored guidance to help the trainees improve their vocal skills.
Lee Haein, creative director, produced and directed 'Kiss of Life' and has participated in two idol audition shows. She will give the trainees sharp, reality-based feedback to help them grow.
RyuD, the dance director and leader of 'Auspicious,' is a well-known figure in the K-pop scene. He will guide the trainees in perfecting their dance skills across different genres.
Bada Lee, leader of the winning crew BEBE from 'Street Woman Fighter 2,' has choreographed for NCT, aespa, and Seventeen. She will help the trainees improve their dance abilities with her unmatched energy and experience.
Actor Lee Soohyuk will be the MC of 'Project 7'. Known for his charisma, this will be his first time hosting an audition show, marking an exciting new phase in his career.
The production team shared, "We have gathered the most influential figures in the audition world. We are confident that their passion will create the perfect global idols."
'Project 7' is also recruiting fans to become the "Project 7 World Assembler," allowing them to watch live performances and vote for their favorites through the official JTBC website. The show premieres at 8:50 PM on October 18.
