The private lives of Korea’s top celebrities are revealed. The show features Taeyang, Oh Hyuk, and CL’s lives outside the public eye and focus on their aspirations and passion, not as stars but as young people still learning about themselves and the world. When the lights are turned off and curtains closed, where do they go and what do they do?
On Mix Nine, YG Entertainment’s Yang Hyun Suk will visit management agencies across Korea to look for idol wannabes with potential and help them become a star. 400 trainees will be on the show, and for the final stage of the competition, nine male and nine female trainees will get to compete. They will be competing against each other as a boy group and a girl group, and the winning team will win the name of “Mix Nine”. Unlike most idol survival programs which makes the contestants compete from the very first episode, Mix Nine will start with the stage in which the staff picks the contestants. The first half of the show will be “Enter Tour Step” and the second half “Competition Step”.
Lee Chae-lin (이채린), better known as CL, is a South Korean rapper. She is a member of the girl group 2NE1.
