COMPLETE GUIDE: HYBE Music Group Audition 2025 — One Chance, Eight Labels, Infinite Possibilities

What if one audition could change your life? What if one audition could open the doors to eight of Korea’s most powerful music labels? HYBE, the powerhouse behind BTS, SEVENTEEN, LE SSERAFIM, and more, is making that dream a reality in 2025. HYBE has launched its first-ever joint global audition — and it’s massive! The HYBE MUSIC GROUP AUDITION 2025 brings together eight HYBE labels in a single, unified global talent search. Whether you sing, dance, rap, or simply know you were born to perform, this is your chance to shine.

What Is the HYBE MUSIC GROUP AUDITION 2025?

HYBE MUSIC GROUP AUDITION 2025 is a landmark event where eight powerhouse labels under HYBE join forces to search for fresh, global talent.

Rather than running separate auditions for each label, HYBE is conducting one combined audition, which means one application gives you the opportunity to be scouted by any of HYBE’s affiliated labels.

For the first time in its history, HYBE is combining the forces of all its labels — including BIGHIT MUSIC, PLEDIS Entertainment, KOZ, SOURCE MUSIC, BELIFT LAB, ADOR, YG PLUS (YX Label), and more — into a single audition process.

This means one application could put you on the radar of the team behind BTS, TXT, SEVENTEEN, LE SSERAFIM, NewJeans, BOYNEXTDOOR, and upcoming artists yet to be revealed. It’s an audition of historic proportions — and it’s global.

“A new stage begins. One application, a chance to be evaluated by eight labels.”
