Season 1

This six-part series following an aspiring British boyband as they undergo the intensive K-Pop training process in South Korea — but where most K-Pop superstars spend several years honing their talents before being let loose in the industry, the British hopefuls are being fast-tracked in just 100 days! After being trained by world-class choreographers and vocal coaches, and mentored by some of the industry's most acclaimed starmakers, the boys are hoping to launch as a new boyband — Dear Alice — on the global stage. But will they emerge as the hottest new thing in pop music, or will they be on the first plane back home from Seoul?
