Several teams, each with two groups of contestants, performed their versions of “Gee” in front of the three members of Girls’ Generation, who determined the winners based on who best showed their own unique skills.

Lee Seung-chul, a singer and judge on Mnet reality TV show "Superstar K3," asked Korean-American contestant Christina Love Lee after a performance on one episode of the show to sing a duet with him, and the result is the single "I Believe," to be released next Monday.

Christina was one of the 11 finalists and ended up placing fourth after months-long competition.

"In fact, what I meant was that she sang so well," Lee explained. "But I thought as a judge I should do something for Christina, who I think was the best singer among all the contestants."

Lee Seung-chul "went over every detail with me," Cristina said. And it seems their relationship will continue. Lee wants to offer help with her debut album. "I want to send the message that your dream can come true to all those who have dedicated their life to music. I hope a duet of a debutante and a veteran singer with a 26-year career will give hope to numerous aspiring musicians out there."

The popular cable show modeled after “American Idol” will hold sessions in Tokyo, Sendai and Osaka, as well as Beijing and New York in June. Auditions for local talent are currently being held in eight locations around Korea.

“Superstar K” will hold auditions in Japan, China and the United States this summer to select contestants for the third season of the talent show, Mnet said Tuesday.

“We launched ‘Superstar K’ in order to give a chance to aspiring singers, mostly comprising of people who have wanted to sing but didn’t have the opportunity to do so. We decided to provide these services so that people can participate more easily,” said Kim Ki-woong, director of “Superstar K.”

Last season’s “Superstar K” created a sensation as John Park, a Korean-American who appeared in “American Idol,” took part in the competition. The eventual winner, Huh Gak, a ventilator repairman, also became a household name. 


“Considering how travel remains difficult in eastern Japan after the earthquakes, we decided to go there ourselves,” said organizers of the program through a press release.

Participants in each city will take part in a two-part screening process. Contenders from Korea and Japan will compete against one another in a third round, while those that make the cut will vie in a fourth and final screening against participants from New York and Beijing. 

The latter, called “Super Week,” will be held in Seoul in August, and organizers will provide transportation and accommodation for those traveling from overseas as well as those from Jeju Island.
The program’s popularity spread overseas, particularly in Japan. Some 90 percent of applicants from the neighboring coutnry this year are Japanese, unlike the strong ethnic Korean demographics of hopefuls in Beijing and New York, said Mnet.

The winner will be entitled to a cash prize of $500,000, concert opportunities and a recording contract.
