Season chronology

Process
  • Audition applications + Preliminary auditions (May – September 2015)
  • Round 1: Talent Audition (Airdate: November 22 – December 6, 2015)
    • Contestants who passed the preliminary auditions appear in front of the three judges for the first time. Contestants can pass with at least two "passes" from the judges, or a judge can offer to use the Wild Card.
  • Round 2: Ranking Audition (Airdate: December 6 – 27, 2015)
    • Contestants who pass the first round are put into groups with others that are most similar to their singing style. The whole group can pass, fail, or a selected few can pass. Each contestant gets to have one-on-one training with Park Jin-young, Yang Hyun-suk, or You Hee-yeol.
  • Round 3: Team Mission (Airdate: December 27, 2015 – January 17, 2016)
    • Contestants form teams to compete against another team. The winning team moves on to the next round. At least one member of the losing team must be eliminated.
  • Round 4: Casting Audition (Airdate: January 24 – 31, 2016)
    • Contestants perform solo or in teams assigned by the judges. Each judge has six casting cards. Each spot can be occupied by a contestant or a team of contestants. Contestants selected train with their particular judge for the battle audition. Contestants not selected in the casting round are eliminated.
  • Round 5: Battle Audition (Airdate: February 7 – 21, 2016)
    • Contestants represent the company they were cast to in a 1 to 1 to 1 battle. First place automatically gets to be in the Top 10, while 3rd place is eliminated. Contestants who finish in 2nd place battle the other contestants who finished 2nd place. Anyone who does not get in the Top 10 teams/contestants is eliminated.
