Bobby Kim has himself seen a significant rise in popularity since joining ‘I Am A Singer‘ in August and impressing audiences with his vocals. Now, he will be the main judge in finding the next ‘ten-million dollar idol’.
The show is being co-produced by ETN and GSI Holdings. A spokesperson for the latter commented, “Bobby Kim is the representative of Korean soulful hip-hop and is acknowledged as a musician with global appeal. We’re anticipating his role as a judge because we believe he will help the contestants develop and upgrade their musical abilities. Also, since he was raised internationally he will be able to help our foreign contestants and potential finalists better in the long run.”
On being chosen Bobby Kim said, “It’s quite a different position for me to become a judge after participating on ‘I Am A Singer.’ I will critique not only the contestants’ musical talents, but also their hidden abilities that will help them gain success as idols. Even though I’ll be on the judges’ panel, I’m feeling feeling nervous nonetheless since ‘Global Super Idol’ is an audition.”
The first round of Thailand’s auditions were held on October 13th with an impressive turnout. In Korea, contestants can enter online through the show’s homepage until December 10th. Regional auditions will begin December 3rd and the show will officially air January 5th, 2012.
