Singer Yoon Mi Rae will be one of three judges on Mnet‘s ‘Superstar K‘ for the second year in a row.
On May 29, Mnet and her agency Jungle Entertainment revealed that Yoon Mi Rae will be judging again this year for the fourth season of the audition program, ‘Superstar K4‘. It’s been reported that she will be joining the judges in mid-June, starting with auditions in the States.
The other two judges, Lee Seung Chul and Psy, were confirmed as judges back in March, but the spot for a female judge remained open until now.
Rated as the best female vocalist and power rapper, Yoon Mi Rae has a different musical style than the other two judges, bringing variety to the table.
With the release of her new album and performances abroad scheduled in the summer, Yoon Mi Rae had been mulling over the offer from Mnet. She decided to accept because she wanted to support the dreams of future singers, and knew that she would be with two dependable judges. Psy previously directed one of Yoon Mi Rae’s solo concerts.
Yoon Mi Rae received attention on the last season of ‘Superstar K’ for her heartwarming comments to audition participants. She was also dubbed as the “judge who has the most fun of all time” by viewers who watched her genuine enjoyment of the participants’ performances.
‘Superstar K4′ will start airing on August 17 after the preliminary rounds are finished in July.
