Singer Lee Seung-Chul revealed the reason he planned "The Scout."
On the 28th at the Cube Convention Center in Sangam-dong, Mapo-gu, Seoul, a press conference was held for ENA's new entertainment program "The Scout."
"The Scout" highlights the process of contestants who have already once challenged their dreams or who have honed their skills in their respective positions returning to the stage. As different genres and experiences come together, the harmony they will create also promises a depth differentiated from existing auditions.
In particular, "The Scout" is drawing attention as a growth-oriented music project that captures top experts in the pop music industry finding uncut gems who have not been able to showcase their talent, suggesting new directions, and completing their journey into global stars through a professional and systematic multi-care system.
Lee Seung-Chul, who debuted in 1986 and marks his 40th anniversary this year, condensed know-how gained through series such as "Superstar K" to directly plan "The Scout" and participated in its production.
Lee Seung-Chul said, "I was not satisfied serving as a judge on many audition programs. You can have different expressions with one song, but the system that decides pass or fail was disappointing. Eliminated contestants have to carry the label of elimination in continuing their careers, so with the desire to properly shape the uncut gems, I began planning two years ago. What I feel while filming is that it was really the right decision and that things are going well. The muses are participating enthusiastically, and I feel the process of the uncut gems becoming jewels."
ENA's growth-oriented music project "The Scout" will premiere on May 8 at 8 p.m.
