SM TOWN AUDITION [ December 21st, 2006 @ 7:18pm ] I never really talked about my SM TOWN audition with anyone, but just because I went, I'll give you guys my audition experience @ the '06 SM TOWN GLOBAL AUDITION in Orange County, California on September 22nd, 2006. It was truly an experience I'll never forget. Luckily for me, I auditioned with one of my best friends [so I wasn't all by myself]. We met a lot of interesting people at the audition, and we eventually bonded into a small "group" that not only gave each other pointers for the audition, but hope, praise, critisism, and just some comforting friendship. You never really know what to expect an audition: how to act, how to look, what to say, what to do...but all of that comes to you instinctively at the last minute when it's your turn to perform. I wasn't really prepared for the audition [I picked out my audition song the day of the audition], but I tried out anyawys. Basically, you fill out an entertainer's resume for SM TOWN [experience, schooling, age, previous auditions, extra talents, what you're trying out for, what race you are, what languages you can speak, etc], and then they give you your own number sticker. After that, they call a group of about 10 people into a designated room and you stand in a line at about 5 at a time. Since we were cool with one of the audition 언니's & we were the first 10 to arrive at the audition, we got to go first. I was in the first five to perform, and basically you just state your name and then sing a song. [You're also being recorded on a camera the entire time] If they like you, they'll ask you to sing another song and even conversate with you. (They asked me to sing another song for them; some girls weren't even asked) Then near the end of the audition, they turn on some music from a boombox and ask you to dance. You don't have to, but you have the choice. The judges are intimidating and critical as FUCK; they're even worse then American Idol. All in all, I didn't make it. But I did get a call from a weird number a day or so later. If it was really them, I'll never know. Oh well. This is what they gave everyone who auditioned. A folder, a flyer, and an SM TOWN catalogue. 7 Comments post comment
