i was given the opportunity to audition at SMs Weekly Auditions in Korea i though id share my experience with other auditioners yesterday (8/29) i was planning to audition at SMs weekly audition in korea unfortunately i came late, but an employee at the SM Everysing building told me to come tomorrow (8/30) Sunday at 1PM to audition i was fairly surprised though, because i thought only auditions were on saturday so earlier today when i auditioned, i went to the SM Everysing building, which is basically a place where there is noraebang and kids can take sticker pictures and talk and whatnot take note that i do not know how to speak korean, but i was referring to my korean pocket dictionary* im chinese i was told by an employee to sit down await, so i waited until 1PM, at 1:10, i was brought down with 10 other people and waited downstairs, and waited, until 2:00, until it accumulated to 26 people? we were brought down to a noraebang room and given numbers, i was number 6 we were given forms, like any other audition and had to fill out personal information and etc. the lady that guided us down explained details, which i didnt understand, but she was very nice she started calling numbers, and i was worried because in the SM Global Auditions, its called by groups of 10, and i was number 6 so i left the room and asked her, but it was only groups of 5 when it was time for my group to audition, we stood on a little stage i was fairly nervous because i wasnt sure that if one of the judges were to speak to me, how they would understand me because of the language barrier. there was one lady judge and one lady camera recorder i was the first to sing and i sang SNSD Tiffanys By Myself. i sang the first verse and the chorus, the beginning went really well, but the chorus, i died a little bit lol since the judge lady knew i didnt speak korean, the judge lady talked to me in chinese. she asked me to pull back my hair and side bangs and look both ways and lift my chin and look into the camera, no one else in my group was asked to the other people in my group sang and then it was time for the rhythm test, which was more like 50 seconds opposed to 30 in the Global Auds. it was Disturbia and i wasnt worried about this section because ive been dancing since i was 5.
