Project 7 (Korean: 프로젝트7) is a 2024 South Korean reality competition show created by JTBC. It is scheduled to premiere on JTBC on October 18, 2024, and will air every Friday at 20:30 (KST).
Concept
Project 7 is a differentiated new concept idol audition program that introduces the concept of 'assembly, reinforcement', where viewers move away from the perspective of observers who only participate through voting and directly select participants for each round from the first round, form new teams, and develop their favorite participants through this process.[1]
Background and production
Development
The program is co-directed by Ma Gun-young and Chae Sung-wook. It was co-produced by Studio Slam and SLL.[1]
On April 20, 2024, JTBC revealed teasers inviting any male to apply for the show. The program will be produced by the creators of Sing Again and will air in the second half of 2024.
Lee Soo-hyuk, was recruited as Project 7 host.[2] The panel also includes Lee Hae-in, Ha Sung-woon, Bada Lee, Hi-Hat Entertainment performance director Ryu D, as well as prominent songwriter and producer Ryan S. Jhun.[3]
