The event is being prepared based on participants who have completed their payments. If you are still waiting for payment or have not made a payment yet, please complete it as soon as possible if you wish to participate.
⚠️ There are limited spots available, and late payments may result in the inability to receive accommodation and meals.

2️⃣ M&M Preliminary Round Time Change

  • ✅ If a participant qualifies for multiple finals, they will automatically be placed in the higher-level final.
  • ✅ If simultaneous registration is not possible, please submit separate applications for each category.

3️⃣ Improvisation Competition Format

  • Preliminary Round: Participants will perform three songs in the order of Medium → Slow → Fast. This format may change depending on circumstances.

    • As the improvisation category is flexible, the final format will be determined on-site based on the number of finalists.
    • Since the competition will be accompanied by a live band, tempo may vary during the performance, and exact BPM information will not be provided.
