Idol Dictation Contest(2021)

Idol Dictation Contest is a spin-off variety series from the popular tvN show Amazing Saturday: Do Re Mi Market. The program invites K-pop idols to the Amazing Saturday studio to compete in the show's signature challenge: listening to songs and writing down the lyrics by ear. Produced by Lee Tae Kyung, the series launched as a four-episode test run, putting idols' musical knowledge and transcription skills to the test. The format strips away the usual variety show chaos to focus purely on the dictation game, creating a fresh take on the beloved listening challenge that made the original series a hit. It's a clever showcase of how well idols know their own industry's music.
