the internet has been abuzz for the past week as more and more hopefuls share their experiences auditioning for studio delta, but it was all set on fire for good as lime entertainment announced its own set of public auditions through their social media accounts, all with the tag #thelimeplanet. multiple accounts reported that axis labels’ main pages were completely down for almost an hour after the announcement.
in similar fashion to studio delta’s process, lime entertainment will be hosting open auditions consisting of two phases. phase one will have participants submit a 120-second video: the first minute should be an introduction followed by the answer to one of the questions listed on their website, and the second minute should then be a performance that covers the contestant’s main skill of choice. remember to choose a well lit environment to shoot your video, as a spokesperson for the company has already made clear that they are looking for fresh charms!
phase two is a round of private auditions with the company, and more information on that will be revealed only to those selected to move on in the process.
we wish you the best of luck participating in lime’s auditions!
OOC:
welcome to lime entertainment’s first official audition event! this is for wannabes only and will run until september 20 at 11:59pm EST. any threads or solos posted after the deadline will not count towards participation. no points will be awarded during this event, so there is no form to submit.
please note that, although you may write with other muses in order to be counted in the event, even if different muses come up with a performance idea together, your muse is still expected to submit an individual, separate video focused solely on them.
please use the hashtag #BE:THELIMEPLANET for all posts relating to this event.
TO PARTICIPATE IN THE AUDITION PROCESS, please write a 300+ word solo or a 4-post thread with another muse about the audition. opposite to what studio delta has asked for, in order to audition for lime entertainment, your muse only needs to showcase one specific skill.
muses are allowed to participate in this event even if they have chosen to audition for studio delta already.
here is the list of questions lime entertainment has made available on their website. you need to answer only one of them.
which k-pop artist or group do you admire most, and why?
what unique qualities or talents can you bring to the k-pop industry?
can you express your passion for k-pop in one word, and why did you choose that word?
can you share a concept or music video idea you've envisioned that's never been done before?
imagine you're given a magic power related to your performance skills. what would it be, and how would you use it to captivate your audience?
! IMPORTANT: once done with your solo or points, please submit the link to this blog so it can be counted as your audition!
this year for the holiday season, we're inviting all of our muns to take part in an out of character secret santa event! this is completely optional and solely intended to be a fun way to celebrate the holiday season with one another.
how does an out of character secret santa event work in a roleplay directory?
we'll collect the names and muses of all interested participants and after the sign-up deadline has closed, we'll randomly assign each participant another member to create a "gift" for. there is no monetary value to these gifts; instead, we'll all use our various talents to create fun little surprises! the gift could be a fanfic starring the recipient's muse(s), an edit of their muse(s), a custom photoshop template, a playlist, a blog or page theme, or whatever else you're inspired and able to make for your assigned gift recipient.
instead of ruining the surprise and sending the gift directly to your assigned recipient, all gifts will be submitted to this blog and released on a queue on christmas day. this way, we all get to celebrate one another's creativity together!
throughout the month, it's also encouraged to send kind anonymous messages to your secret santa recipient, if they have anon turned on. kind words can go a long way and it's always nice to receive positive affirmations regardless of the occasion!
SIGN UPS CLOSE AT 9PM EST ON DECEMBER 6TH
please use this form to submit your interest in participating in this year's secret santa event. we'll send out private messages letting everyone know who they are assigned to give a gift to as well as the deadline for gift submissions shortly afterwards.
studio delta has announced on the 27th of august on all of their social media accounts that a new page has been published to its official website: 'into the deltaverse’, a round of public auditions to join the company’s roster!
auditions will be running through september, and they are open to the general public. the audition process consists of two stages: first, those interested in participating must fill out the personal information form on the website and submit alongside it a 90 second solo video consisting of an introduction and a showcase of two or more skills. as noted in a footnote, those skills can be anything from your usual singing and dancing to using your own lyrics or choreography, reciting poetry while hopping on one foot, a brief rap verse followed by a reenactment of king the land’s last scene, and more! the most important thing is to show versatility - after all, studio delta is known for its “producer-dols” and notoriously encourages thinking outside the box!
the videos will be evaluated by top rated coaches in the industry, and an unspecified select few will be invited for the second stage: a private in loco audition with the company. from there, wannabes might be offered a contract with studio delta.
we wish good luck to everyone participating, and let’s get the hashtag #intothedeltaverse trending!
OOC:
welcome to studio delta’s first official audition event! this is for wannabes only and will run until september 10 at 11:59pm EST. any threads or solos posted after the deadline will not count towards participation. follow-up messages will be sent to a select few with more instructions regarding the second stage of the audition process after this date. no points will be awarded during this event, so there is no form to submit.
please note that, although you may write with other muses in order to be counted in the event, even if different muses come up with a performance idea together, in-character your muse is still expected to submit an individual, separate video focused solely on them.
please use the hashtag #BE:INTOTHEDELTAVERSE for all posts relating to this event.
TO PARTICIPATE IN THE AUDITION PROCESS, please write a 300+ word solo or a 4-post thread with another muse about the audition. please also state clearly somewhere in your post the two skills your muse has chosen, such as having at the top of your post “skills showcased: one and two”. some examples of what can be counted as participation are: filming the audition video, practicing choreography with a friend, writing lyrics to an original song your muse intends on performing, reeling after submitting the video and wondering if it’s good enough, and more! as long as the content shows your muse’s clear intent on auditioning and what skills they plan on showcasing, it will be counted.
as stated, muses must showcase two separate skills. this can be two performance skills, two ancillary skills, or a mixture of both! if you’re unsure of whether or not your idea qualifies for the requirements, don’t hesitate to shoot this blog a message and we’ll clear it up for you.
! IMPORTANT: once done with your solo or points, please submit the link to this blog so it can be counted as your audition!
on the morning of 7th MAY, all trainees are called to the AXIS BUILDING hall and are grouped according to their respective companies. murmurs softly begin to fill the hall. there have been whispers of axis labels venturing into something new, yet concrete details remain elusive.
"hello," KIM JAEKYUNG, the DIRECTOR of axis labels speaks into the mic. "i'm sure most of you have heard rumours going around of us possibly starting on a new project." the trainees quieten down, now intrigued by jaekyung. "the rumours are true. we're proud to announce that we will be working closely with SR MEDIA on our expansion into the drama business."
axis labels has announced that they will be expanding their hold in the market through the production of a drama. they have chosen to strategically select the actors from their talented pool of trainees. this move not only showcases the label's commitment to nurturing emerging talent but also aims to elevate their visibility, captivating audiences with fresh faces and compelling narratives.
while neither sr media nor axis labels have yet to disclose the drama that they will be producing, it is clear that they are putting a lot into this, and that their intent is to make their mark in the drama industry.
auditions are open for ALL TRAINEES, regardless of companies that have +5 ACTING and +35 KOREAN. muses that are auditioning will be asked to prepare an audition from one of the following scenes:
SCENE 1: 1:27-6:22
SCENE 2
SCENE 3
SCENE 4
a group of staff members will be seated behind a long table in front of you while you audition, reading out the scene partner’s lines.
[OOC]
this event is for TRAINEES only (vybe and project members are not allowed to participate due to schedule constraints) and will run until june 18 at 11:59pm EST. any threads or solos posted after the deadline will not count toward points or the audition. please send in your points submission before this deadline.

It starts out as rumours at first. A large building in Seongsu is suddenly covered up with scaffolding, and the words "AXIS LABEL CAFE" are bright and clear at the top. It isn’t until news articles begin to make waves, are the rumours confirmed. Axis Labels has decided to open up a POP-UP CAFE in SEONGSU - the trendiest neighbourhood in Seoul.
Axis Labels has rented out a building in Seongsu, and will be holding a grand opening celebration on 26TH MAY! It is a multi-storey cafe, with a small stage for performances on the first floor, along with some drinks, and a larger variety of pastries on the second along with pastries named after each member of an Axis Label boy group! On the third floor, a rooftop garden is set up to enjoy the view, and the nice spring-like weather!
For our current in-character idol group VYBE the pastries available are:
Hershey Brownie Haneul
Strawberry Muffin Seojun
Jasmine Tea Cake Jihyun
Watermelon Cupcake Wook
Sour Cherry Muffin Siwoo
Kiwi Cake Kian
Unlike other grand openings, Axis Labels have decided to go all-out this time by holding a COMMUNITY TALENT SHOW! This isn’t your typical community talent show, where the prize is simply a certificate or trophy. No! Axis Labels have announced that the winners of this talent show, stand a chance to have a PRIVATE AUDITION with one of their subsidiary labels (Studio Delta, SR Media and Lime Entertainment)! Netizens speculate that this community talent show is a ruse to garner more trainees in the ever-growing label.
Muses are allowed to perform the following at the talent show, be it in pairs or solo:
Solo/Duet song to sing (self-composed songs are fine)
Solo/Duet dance performance
Playing an instrument (Only the keyboard and guitar will be available. If muses wish to play any other instrument, they will need to prepare and bring it on their own).
A monologue from a k-drama
A scene from a k-drama in pairs
If muses wish to work in pairs, they may both have a chance at winning the talent show.
WOOK and SEOJUN (@noelxbe and @beseojun) have also been announced to be SPECIAL JUDGES for this community talent show, along with a few other Axis Label staff! So make sure to give it your best!
Wannabes that are not interested in participating in the talent show, are also free to drop by the cafe at any time to try out the food as well as to support their friends!
Bon Appetit!
