MBC Auditions: Competition Update

       Finally another update about the MBC competition! This time I've added the MBC episode of the Youtubers. I wasn't able to give you guys updates on the competition because the contestants were not able to talk about the contest due to their contracts. I'm not sure if I can give out what I currently know about the competitiors, or who on this list was able to go further on in the competition, but you can always follow the contestants of Youtube/Twitter! The first three videos do not have an English subtitles, but the contestants were admitted into the second round along with others.


 PumaShock FIGHTING!


Daniel Kim



Shane from Canada



Contestant izAKLY was given permission to re-upload the Youtube audition episode and added his own English subtitles and annotations. !





Ps. I guess I will share what I know so far. David Kim, Lillian Lee, and izAKLY did not make it past the third round. I don't know the fate of the other contestants at the moment. Just stay tuned for more episodes and other posts.

MBC Competition: Pumashock Hwaiting

Click Here for and update on the competition

As you  may know, MBC is holding a competition for a new international K-Pop artist. Videos for the competition have been flooding Youtube for weeks now, all filled with aspiring musicians. This blogger is pulling for Natalie White, aka YouTube star Pumashock, all the way! She writes and creates her own original songs and remixes the songs of popular K-Pop artists, blessing them wiith her special touch and beautiful voice.
Her work has not gone unnoticed. She was featured on a Korean Show called Star King which introduced her to a wider Korean audience.Girl's Generation (SNSD) even got to see her remixed version of Gee and were thoroughly amazed at her rendition of the song (see their reaction here). Recently she was featured in a Korean commercial for Supremo Coffee . Natalie has been working hard to achieve a musical career and it seems as if this is just what she needs to break out into the industry. She writes her own songs and knows Korean and English, meaning that all her songs will actually make sense ! Please vote for her between Nov 28 - Dec 3. You are allowed one vote per day. If you're still not convinced about how great she is, watch the videos in this post or go to the link at the right to see her Youtube page. Natalie Fighting!
