[스포티비뉴스=강효진 기자] As the JTBC audition program’Singer Gain’ enters the long-awaited top 10, the interest is hot, and director Kim Hak-min said, “In the top 10 next week, singers will fight under their name for the first time, and there will be another fun. “I told the point of watching.
JTBC’s’Singer Gain’, which started its first broadcast on November 16 last year at 3.2% (Nielsen Korea standard), continues to increase day by day, soaring to the 8% level and is promoting itself. In particular, in the 9th episode, which aired on the 18th, the top 9 was confirmed except for one of the losers, attracting explosive attention.
In this regard, I had a direct interview with PD Kim Hak-min, who is in charge of directing’Singer Gain’, to hear various questions related to the program.
Next is one question and one answer with Kim Hak-min PD.

-The audience rate is rising. It has already risen from the 3% level to the 8% level.
“I’m happy. I think I’m glad you liked it a lot.”
-The method of calling performers by number is now finished in the top 10, do you think it was successful?
“At first there was a controversy among our production crew, too.’Is this right?’ There were a lot of concerns, but it seems that hiding the name with the number came fresh to the viewers. I think that part was not interesting to the program at the beginning. “
-Instead of not being able to call a name, they got a number and nicknames with many performers. Do you know the various nicknames of the performers such as’Warmtone Jesus’ (No. 29) and’Cooltone Jesus’ (No. 10)?
“It was a lot of hot topic through the gallery or online community anyway. We also enjoy watching it (laughs).”
-At the end of the 8th broadcast, viewers resentful for the 30th episode, which recorded the highest rating (11.2%) per minute. There were a lot of fans who waited anxiously to the point that the joke of’view rate hostage play’ came out, but was it the intended edit?
“Actually, we had to edit it up to that point due to the fact that there was a hard part to edit. It is because we had to adjust the edit according to the frame set week by week rather than intentionally cutting it and lead it to the final. But it is because of the editing conditions rather than the intention of “I have to deliberately quit here. I will make you curious.” The production crew suffers a lot because they have to take turns shooting in addition to the amount of killing every week. Please understand.”
-At the beginning of the broadcast, there were a lot of bad comments towards the junior judges.
“There is still such a tendency, but the cast members are also willing to respond. I hope that viewers do not see this as too edgy. They are also singers who have made their family, and they are the ones who have served as singers. There is a reason. I think it would be nice if viewers could see it from a variety of perspectives as they said a lot of good things in the field.”
-What is the secret that’Singer Gain’ promoted among other audition programs?
“Since a lot of auditions are concentrated on the trot, there seems to be a part that feels fresh in that part. It’s been a while since the audition is not a trot. It seems that the point was big. Compared to some auditions, there are various approaches, including the origins of singers. Viewers are curious about the part where we took a story-like approach to’Sugar Man’,’OST’, etc.’All are the same unknown singers, why are unknown singers’. I think it was.”
-What changed on the first stage when the top 10 members found their names?
“Once I had a name after the Top 10, the judges loved it very much on the first stage. Now, I call it by name, not by’number of issues’, and the point is when the singer finds her name. So are the judges. Like the singer, the stage seems to have been a little more alive. Maybe next week’s broadcast will live a little more like that.”
-Personally, if there is a participant who is reluctant to drop out.
“I’m sorry for all the dropouts (laughs) and I want all the singers to win. I really support everyone.”
-Will there be any possibility for Season 2 as we achieved good results?
“I think (probability) will not be 0%. It will be difficult in the near future, but after the season has changed a lot again, I think it will be a natural point of time.
-Is there a support plan for the winner?
“I will inform you about the details later. First of all, the winner will have a prize of 100 million won and will produce an album. When the corona situation resolves a little, I have a performance in mind. I think Corona will be an important issue.”
-What are the points to watch for the remaining rounds?
“Next week, the top 10 will get their name back for the first time. This is the first fight under their name, not the’number of issues’. The judges and singers seem to have been on the stage with a slightly more unique feeling. It seems that there was a different feeling and fun: Top 10 and Top 6, semi-finals and finals, which is the point of entering the second half, which is largely two times left. “
