Bighit Music, the label beyond K-pop megastar BTS and Tomorrow X Together (TXT), will hold auditions around the world to find members of a next-generation boy band.

The company said, Monday, it will hold "2022 Bighit Music Global Audition" both online and offline through September.

Males born in 2002 or later can apply regardless of their nationality and location of residence, for categories such as vocal, rap, dance and producing to show their artistic potential, according to the agency.

Offline auditions will take place in Los Angeles on June 25, Toronto on July 2, Sydney on July 16, Bangkok on July 30, Taipei on Aug. 13, Tokyo on Sept. 3, and Seoul on Sept. 18. Prior registration for participation in the auditions is not required, so those wanting to take part can just come to the venues on those dates. They will receive comments on their singing and dancing skills from casting directors at Bighit Music.

Details of the auditions are available on the company's website. Those who can't attend the auditions can apply online by submitting files through the site.

Bighit has been holding global auditions every year since 2018, with offline events being held in six cities in 2018 and eight in 2019, with online events in 2020 and 2021 due to COVID-19 pandemic.
