Peak Time, an upcoming survival show for K-pop groups with small fandoms, will help everyone find their own stages in the K-pop industry.
Some of the most popular K-pop groups and idols were discovered through survival shows. Companies and networks create these programs in order to pick the best among the contestants and give them the spotlight they deserve.
