K-pop reality audition programmes have been wildly successful, without a doubt.

These programmes produced many successful project groups like I.O.I, Wanna One, IZ*ONE and more. Contestants from these shows have often gained more recognition from viewers and the general public alike, because of the cut-throat competition contestants are put through.

And it’s safe to say that reality audition shows have blown up over the years.

Chinese reality programme Chuang

They were so popular that China created a similar programme Chuang, the Chinese equivalent of Korea’s Produce 101. Its first season was broadcast in 2018.

Back for another spin-off in 2023, Jackson Wang heads the programme, titled Chuang Asia, as the lead mentor.

It plans to create a new girl group that will debut through RYCE Entertainment in 2024. Co-founded by Jackson, the entertainment company is home to familiar and famed figures such as Amber Liu, Tablo, amongst others.
