In fact, Sidus HQ was so impressed by the quality of the contestants from last year’s Ulzzang contest that they requested to interview the top eight finalists, rather than just the winners and the first runners-up. So your chances of being discovered by one of the leading Korean entertainment agencies have just doubled! In addition, the top male and female winners will each receive a $100 gift certificate from iTunes and a mixed package of Soompi goods.
