How to prepare

WAKEONE Online Audition Guide

You can apply in up to two categories—singing, dancing, rap, and acting—and team applications are also accepted. There are no restrictions on gender, age, or nationality, but applicants must have no issues that would prevent them from traveling internationally. Download and complete the official application form (available in Korean and English), then submit it by email along with your application, self-introduction video, audition video(s) for each category, and contact information other than your email address. Results will be announced within approximately 1–3 weeks to successful applicants only. You may reapply once a month.

When preparing, check the following:
- Film your self-introduction video in Korean. Applicants with foreign nationality should also include an introduction in their native language.
- Film your self-introduction in landscape orientation, with your upper body facing the camera.
- For each audition category, prepare a video approximately 2 minutes and 30 seconds long, filmed in landscape orientation with your full body visible.
- Choose up to two categories to apply for, and make sure your application and all required videos are ready.

Before applying, check the WAKEONE official audition announcement again for details and submission instructions.
