The company behind popular Korean groups the Wonder Girls, whose hits include Nobody, and also 2PM and 2AM is holding auditions in Singapore next month to recruit new talent.

Korean talent management company JYP will be holding open casting calls on Dec 8, 9 and 11 at Agora Hall in Republic Polytechnic.

Those hoping for a shot at stardom can audition as long as they are born between 1983 and 2001, regardless of nationality and gender.

JYP is looking for talent in a range of categories including singing, acting, dancing, hosting and modelling.

Be prepared for some stiff competition: Auditions are also being held in Hong Kong on Dec 17 and 18 at the Hong Kong International Trade and Exhibition Centre.

Selected candidates will be notified in January and sent to South Korea to be trained by JYP.
