Does that mean that I only have to fill in the appication form and send it to the email adress, "without uploading and sending in any other audition material (like audio or video files)"
-
does anyone have the "NEW" audition form of YG ?
oh woaw i thought I wouldn't be able to find it again.
Found and translated it
http://www.mediafire.com/?asue1dh6lbp8qbdthis is the original version

I recently emailed them and asked about the mailing address, and it is:
YG Audition
398-21 Seongkwang Building B1F
Hapjeong-dong, Map-gu
Seoul, Korea
121-886
Hope that clears all the confusion!!
this is the right one bcuz u can find it on their audition website... I am sure a little while ago they''ve had a different address.

who cares if they are dead or not, just audition. We are not 100% sure if the company is dead or not.
So that means that there is a possibillity to get an answer. So why dont you just try?
They might be really picky. Companies dont reply when they are not interrested. maybe they are too lazy to update their website. maybe they have enough trainees and dont need any other people to train. I think in a thread M.Boone said that he became grandfather or so on. Maybe he just wants so take a break.
Lets say they helped several people to get into a company, maybe these people didn't debut yet, i dont think that they are allowed to put information about trainees of the other companies into their website.

My parents know my dream about me, wanting to become a singer since my childhood days. They always hated it. When I sung, they could hear my voice over the whole house. My aunt, dad, mom brother... everyone is telling me to stop but I can't.
When I was young I told them that I wanted to take piano lessons, they said no. After a while I wanted to take vocal lessons and again they took it lightly and said "when you are a grown up"... Fortunatly in High School there was a music teacher who heard me singing and wanted to help me and teached me how to play the guitar... I stayed at school when everyone went home, so I came home really late.. My father moved and my mom didn't liked that but I was so happy. We argued because of that so often.
Even now, (im 19) she tells me to stop taking singing lessons. I just started taking dancing lessons and now shes even more unpatient, telling me that I am gone totaly insane..
When I tell my dad that music is my live that its my passion, then he tells me that I am naive. I should not overdo it. Music cant be your live, thats just a stupid saying... It hurts me really much, but I know that I am not alone.
I know that my dad wants the best for me... He doesn't want me to regret (he told me). But I'll regret when I don't do what I want. He knows how It feels to be forced to do something, my grandfather wanted him to drop out of school and go working because he(grandfather) needed money
I trust my father, but I'll go my path the way I want. This has nothing to do with being unrespectful, and actually my parents are really strict its just that nothing and nooone can stop my stubbornness, especially when it comes to music. I know that they'll be proud of me, later on.
I don't need the premission or allowance of my parents to do what I want. Even If they get angry, this is my live. I'll graduate from school next year, and after that I'll concentrate on music for 2 years. My dad says its a waste of time, I'll lose two years of study time. Of course I am afraid to fail, and 1. If I do then I know that I'll not regret it 2. Its not a waste of time, It's not like I am going to lay on my richard simmons for these two years. I'll have more time to care 1005 about my own stuff without having to worry about stuff for college or university.
I know that most actors and singer had the same problems. I actually don't know much about Yoon Kye Sang but hearing his words made me feel even stronger, and I remember them whenever I feel weak or afraid. If someone is interested the actual part begins at 2:10 My link

send in my audition stuff yesterday...
wanted more time to improve and to make the recordings perfect. But nothing is perfect for me...
When I wouldn't have send in the stuff yesterday then actually would have never auditioned because I always think that i am not good enough yet -___-. (no matter what others say.)
-
Rain isn't necessarily the ideal look now either. LOL. Girls fawn over his body more than they do over his face. You really don't understand what I'm trying to say. LOL. His face is charming, NOT handsome. He didn't change anything. No double eyelids and dark skin was accepted even before him.
I do understand what you're trying to say, but it makes no sense.
It doesnt make sense because you got it wrong. I'll tell you why... because you didn't read the first post of me ^^. (I didn't mean the change over himself.)
-
But rain was strong and continued to audition. He got accepted and was able to change the "beauty standards".
If he probably wouldn't have tried so hard, the beauty standard wouldn't have opened for people with dark skin and mono-lid eyes.
@ShrimpCrackerrr
well, thats what i made this sign >""<. Lets just say, that the music industry opened to people with small/mono-lid eyes because of him.
@whatsupman
wuah you people really understand only what you want do understand.
The fact is that rain didn't got accepted because of his eyes or should I say, because he was the opposite of the ideal look.
We already know that Korea isn't open to foreigners (in the M.Industry). The rest is your opinion. Im not going to deny opinions so I leave it to you.
Its not just about MADONNA or RAIN. They were just examples for the change thing.
Now I'm not going to repeat myself. I already said, what I had to say.
-
Uh I think what Rain had to deal with was not Racism but of something of a totally different prejudice: he wasn't considered pretty...he had dark skin, and a monolid...Back then having a sanga-pul and milky skin for men was more of a norm. But now Rain set the trend for Korean men to look like actual men, with his chocolate abs and his chiseled features. Rain had to deal with the beauty standards of biaseness, not actual racism itself..."To look more Caucasian" I think that quote right their was taken out of context...
ah you misunderstood me. I didn't say it was racism he had to with.
You said the answear by yourself
Back then having a sanga-pul and milky skin for men was more of a norm. But now Rain set the trend for Korean men to look like actual men, with his chocolate abs and his chiseled features.
I repeat "Nothing changes when anybody tries to change it."
The Judges told him that he was a good dance but they didn't want him because of his looks. Probably not only rain but other people too.
But rain was strong and continued to audition. He got accepted and was able to change the "beauty standards".
If he probably wouldn't have tried so hard, the beauty standard wouldn't have opened for people with dark skin and mono-lid eyes.
Hope you understand what I mean.
___________________________
I dont deny the fact that non Asians have disadvantages in the Korean Music Industry. No matter, how many people deny about that, no matter how much you lie to yourself. This fact will not change unless somebody will have the strength and passion, to do so.
I think, the audience might open their arms and minds when a non asian artist would get support from professionals like YG, JYP, SM or whatever.

@Natasya-Pard
The Answers to your question have nothing to do with ethnicity, its about personality.
Is the person ready to give up several things for his passion, is he/she determined and strong enough to deal with the problems, rumors, criticism, racism and whatever.
@Aikurah
Good for you. Those people might even not care about asian music today, because i dont think that they've become fans of asia. Your post sounds like you were the only one who had to deal with racism. You know what? People said those things to me too, even though I am not chinese, japanese or korean.
Why? Because they knew form my interest to Japan. That was even 10 years ago.
My dad wanted me to stop being interested in Asia. People were are always telling that "I was richard simmons headed like all the japanese people too" there was even more, but at the end I didn't care. Eventhough I've had lots of haters, I performed with japanese songs several times.
God gave us a brain, he gave us the ability to learn and understand. Don't blame the people who don't know anything about the asian culture and manners. They can learn, we can learn. But they can't do anything about their bithplace. I think there are for sure a lot of Korean who don't know much about their own culture. Not only Koreans but other people too.
> What these people can do, is to learn. To learn the language, the culture and to understand the people of the country.
Eventhough when they never can't become korean from the outside, they can become korean from the inside. Their body language, manners, the way they life. I made that experience with my German friends, who visited me/us often.
__________
Yeah, you are right! It's a fact that there aren't any famous non asians in the Korean Music Industry.
So it's also a fact that it is hard for non-Asians to join the Asian Music Industry, "especially the Korean Music Industry".
I haven't see any non famous non asian in the Korean Industry, but there were serveral Muscians who were not only active but also successful in other countrys like Japan (and maybe China), before you and I knew that music even exist. I know one, but I don't think he was the only one.
Like most of you said.
Rain said too that he could not imagine a non Asian in the Korean music Industry. But actually he had similar problems in the past.
"The judges did not like him, but they didn't want him because of his looks/single eyelids. He said, "back then, it was popular to have blond hair and to look more Caucasian"
At the end they choose him, because of his willingness. He auditioned again and again, until they accepted him.
>>>>> And today? You see a lot singers who have single eyelids. Some people even like it more.
Back then, I can imagine that people might even have said the same like as you.
why? Probably because they/you are not used to it.
I've read somewhere in this topic that someone said "racism can not be changed"
Thats wrong, everything can be changed, unless someone tries to change it. (ex. Montgomery Bus Boycott, Madonna)
If nobody tried to changes something then nothing is going to happen.
When I don't practice, exercise then I am not going to learn anything. Nothing is going to happen when I don't stand up and try to reach my goals.
Through Madonna, s** and naked skin became an easy thing. Back then, showing skin was seen as a scandal.
20 Years ago, the same was with the german Industry too. In movies and on TV there were only germans. 10 years ago only a few foreigners appeared, but today, yeah well there is still racism,. People/Teachers are and were often racist to me too. But it changed compared to the past. Most of the german artists are foreign.
@Aikurah
Look at this. Far East Movement really didn't gain popularity until 2010.Why, do they get now attention? Because they tried, and they worked hard for it. This shows that protesting doesn't make us look like fools. Because FEM did too. They did what they liked. And many others did too.
Even when protesting, or believing in our dreams would make us look like a fool. clench your teeth. when you aren't able to fight against the blame of others, how are you fight against the other things in the future.
Why are the Asians allowed to, dye their hair, to get a tan, wear lenses and do to plastic surgery to look more causcian.
And Caucasians are getting blamed with doing the opposite.
YouR african friend seems to be annoying, and I wouldn't not consider someone as a friend, whom I look down like you do. Let her do what she want's do to. I also know such people too.
You know how you act? You act like korea is yours. You see the things to superficial. There are people, who are not only listening to Korean Music. Not because it's korean music, but maybe because they are passionate about the whole thing. It maybe gives a different feeling. I grew up with wanting to stay on a stages in Asia, wanting to became a part of avex. Because I loved not only the music but also the language. I am happy not to be german, cuz the people here seem to beincompetent for me. Everything is so one-sided. Germany is not a country nor a language which suits music. Thats what I think.
And about the Caucasian should just stick to America or Europe" thing...
this would be a good choice, for people who are only into music general.
The Music Industry of Japan and Korea is different. To me, the people work more passionate. I like the production of music there, i like the language, and the fashion. Of course I would like to integrate myself. And I think many others feel the same way as me.
What we need is support. Imagine, someone beautiful and talented gets the support of companies like YG or JYP, the person gets also support from other artists. If someone gets that opportunity then I can imagine that this person can be successful.
PEACE!!!

post audition just means the first audition before the second audition
ah, the person might misunderstand that. I had to read it 3 times, to get what you mean. Because it sounded strange to me^^".
Post audition is the opposite of online auditioning.. you send in a package via post mail

@mebui
not everyone who send them an email. but people who tried to send them files... like pictures, mp3s or whatever... (i think)
an other member of soompi got the same mail as you... just look at this... google helps..

@morgansunshine
Singing: 8.5/10
i think your voice is really good, i love the vibrato and control! i'm not japanese, but i've taken language classes and have experience in singing in it, so i hope my input will be helpful. i think your "t"s are a too hard (at times). you're hitting them like a regular American speaking style, but it should be a bit more subdued like a cross between a "t" and "d". i think in general you might want to make your sounds a bit more delicate sounding (unless the song is more harsh, it's more understandable). ack, i don't really know how to explain myself. ^^; i think the opening sounded a bit more "awkward" in sound ("hanashi"(?), the "ashi" sounded really not Japanese-like). i apologize if i'm being offensive!! i wish your microphone was better because your vocals sound so good, but there was the peaking sound at the higher/louder notes ;-;
No you are not offensive, I'm glad about your comment!thanks. (Dont be afraid, I want to know your opinions about my voice). The first word is not hanashi, its arashi
. Now I can hear the mistake too. I think the "I" sounded a little too hard?iish xD? i'll work on it.I don't get what you mean with peaking sound. Do you mabye mean squeaking sound? New microphone is on the way to me
. But I think the squeaking sound is because of the mixing settings. I'm not the best when it comes to mixing up song ^^". Also youtube affected the quality( i think) -

I would like to know what you think about my japanese pronunciation.

Jesus Christ.... I still haven't received anything... *** SO FRUSTRATING *** It's like everyone ignores anything I send...
BTW, Thank you for the update (^__^) Please let me know if you get any further news...
they are even not answearing me.. i asked them 2 times for the john teshing adress they were writing about, ( on their website) "You can email to introduce yourself and we can give you an address that has capacity for such files. "
-
Even though they ask, it is not a requirement for the audition application and you can leave it blank if you feel uncomfortable (I would strongly recommend omitting this information to prevent identity theft as your SS number is very important and should not be freely given out). This will only be required if you are signed and employed/represented by Bros. Ent. in some contractual agreement for tax purposes...
Yeah, I feel unconftable about it. Since im not their trainie. From where do you know that it is not required.
Becauese their application form says "I understand that this information is correct and complete. This form is for
information only and is not an offer for employment. It is further understood
that all submissions become property of Brothers Entertainment and will not
be returned."

do you guys fill out the social security number area?

yg again.. they said that they'll realease the list on 2pm but it's already 8pm in korea

oh btw, yg has updated the pop up thing.

Does anyone know somehing about Star Empire Ent.? They seem to be bankrupt, that's the feeling I got after ready this article http://seoulbeats.com/2009/10/star-empire-tells-its-child-to-move-out/...
V.O.S also changed to an other comanpy and jewelry weren't active since a long time. Poppin' Hyun Joon's last realase was two years ago.

Somehow I think it was just so that, in some cases people fill out all the forms (apply for Singer, Actor, and Producer) to see how multi-talented people are .______. it's a bit of a waste of everyone's time, isn't it...?
they would have told us like for the dancing category. They said those who are applying for singing can dance too.

. Now I can hear the mistake too. I think the "I" sounded a little too hard?iish xD? i'll work on it.
