Each week, the singers perform a song and are eliminated based on the three judges' perception and audience voting. The winner of Superstar K2 received 200 million [won](/source/South_Korean_won) ($172,282 [USD](/source/United_States_dollar)) and a [Samsung QM5](/source/Samsung_QM5) car. This program began on July 23, 2010 and ended October 22, 2010 with the announcement of [Huh Gak](/source/Huh_Gak) as the winner and Korean-American [John Park](/source/John_Park_(musician)) as the runner-up. ## Format The auditions took place in 8 cities across South Korea ([Daejeon](/source/Daejeon), [Incheon](/source/Incheon), [Daegu](/source/Daegu), [Gwangju](/source/Gwangju), [Chuncheon](/source/Chuncheon), [Jeju Island](/source/Jeju_Island), [Busan](/source/Busan), [Seoul](/source/Seoul)) and [Los Angeles](/source/Los_Angeles). There were about 1 million and 350 thousand people that participated in this show and 151 were chosen. The 151 contestants were to participate in a 3-day competition called Superweek. The competition consists of 3 missions; The Sing-Off, the Group Mission and the Rival Mission (the interview round if necessary). The Sing-off consists of 16 people per zone. There, 4 people are chosen and choose some contestants for the Wild Card round. At the end, 50 people are selected for the next mission. The Group Mission consists of 5 members per group. All groups have a leader and each get to choose which member they wish to have in their group. Each group is given an overnight practice for the songs they have chosen and perform for the judges the next day. There, the judges decide on which members to proceed to the next mission. The number of people for the next mission vary from 20-24. In this year's show, the judges decided to have an emergency wild card round to let some of the good singers who failed into the next round. They chose [Kang Seung-yoon](/source/Kang_Seung-yoon) (17), [Kim Greem](/source/Kim_Greem) (24), Kim He Min (24), Kim Yon-jin (25), Moon Son Young (26), Woo Eun-mi (19), John Park (23) and [Hyun Seung-hee](/source/Seunghee) (15) to get on cars. In the end, John Park, Hyun Seung-hee, Kang Seung-yoon and Kim Greem successfully passed the round and joined the rest of the Top 24. The other four were taken to Seoul Station. The Rival Mission consists of two rivals per pair. The pairs are organised by two people having the similar vocal skills. Like the group mission, the rivals are given an overnight practice and perform the next day. There is only one winner per pair and there are no cases of both members going through. However this year, the Rival Mission took a shocking turn and became messed up as some pairs had both members eliminated due to their lacking effort. Only 7 members were chosen (Kim Ji-soo (21), [Park Bo-ram](/source/Park_Bo-ram) (17), Kang Seung-yoon (17), Kim Greem (24), Lee Bo-ram (19), Kim Eun-bi (18) and John Park (23). The judges once again held a wild card round and selected Andrew Nelson (15), Hyun Seung-hee (15), Jang Jae-in (20), Kim So-jung (22), [Huh Gak](/source/Huh_Gak) (26) and Kim Bo-kyung (21). With 13 people, the judges held an interview round where the contestants are interviewed through various questions and decide whether to eliminate the contestant or let them proceed into the Top 10. In the end, Kim Bo-kyung and Hyun Seung-hee were eliminated. During Top 11, contestants participated in many missions throughout live shows and get special awards. The total scores of the contestants add up by - 10%-Internet votes - 30%-Judges scores - 60%-Mobile text votes If somehow the performer got the highest total score, they will be automatically Super Saved and proceed to the next round. Huh Gak won the show against John Park 988:596 and won 200 million won and a QM5. ## Top 11 Name Place Age Huh Gak (Korean: 허각) Winner 26 John Park (Korean: 존 박) Runner-up 23 Jang Jae-in (Korean: 장재인) Top3 20 Kang Seung-yoon (Korean: 강승윤) Top4 17 Kim Ji-soo (Korean: 김지수) Top6 21 Kim Eun-bi (Korean: 김은비) Top6 18 Park Bo-ram (Korean: 박보람) Top8 17 Andrew Nelson Top8 15 Kim Greem (Korean: 김그림) Top11 24 Kim So-jung (Korean: 김소정) Top11 22 Lee Bo-ram (Korean: 이보람) Top11 19 ## Group Mission (Top 50) **No.1- Gummy: Kid** Name Age Results Choi Hyung-hyol 22 Eliminated Noh Seung-min 28 Eliminated Andrew Nelson 15 Advanced Baek Ye-seul 22 Eliminated Joo Eun-ji 17 Advanced **No.2- Park Bom: You and I** Name Age Results Han Kyung-soo 25 Eliminated Kim Ji-soo 21 Advanced Lee Bo-ram 19 Advanced Sun Ji-hye 23 Advanced Kim Soon-nyun 27 Eliminated **No.3- Wonder Girls: 2 Different Tears** Name Age Results Kim Yon-woo 18 Eliminated Jang Jae-in 20 Advanced Kim Yon-jin 25 Eliminated Park Myung-hyun 22 Eliminated Hong Nam-hwa 23 Advanced **No.4- Park Mi Kyung: Meaningless Reason** Name Age Results Moon Sun-young 26 Eliminated Kim Bo-kyung 21 Advanced No Dae-young 23 Advanced Choi Joon-hyuk 19 Advanced Lee Young-suk 26 Eliminated **No.5- JYP: Honey** Name Age Results Sean Lee 23 Advanced Woo Eun-mi 19 Eliminated Seo Hyo-song 18 Eliminated Kim So-jung 22 Advanced Park Dong-soo 25 Eliminated **No.6- Brown Eyes: Already a Year** Name Age Results Lee Young-min 25 Eliminated Jeon Hye-young 22 Eliminated Kang Hwa-ran 7 Eliminated Lee Bo-kyung 20 Advanced Kang In-soo 23 Advanced **No.7- Kim Tae Woo: Love Rain** Name Age Results Hwang Hye-in 21 Eliminated Myoung Hye-jin 22 Eliminated Kim Hye-min 24 Eliminated Lee Je-yoon 20 Eliminated Um Ji-hwan 22 Eliminated **No.8- 2AM: Can't let you go, even if i die** Name Age Results Huh Gak 26 Advanced John Park 23 Eliminated Hyun Seung-hee 15 Eliminated Kim Geu-rim 24 Eliminated Kim Song-beob 21 Advanced **No.9- Davichi: 8282** Name Age Results Hyun Ji-hye 20 Advanced Maeng Jung-eun 17 Eliminated Kang Seung-yoon 17 Eliminated Yoon Ho-young 20 Advanced Lee Jung-young 21 Eliminated **No.10- CNBLUE: Love** Name Age Results Gu Su-kyong 21 Eliminated Kim Eun-bi 18 Advanced Park Bo-ram 17 Advanced Seo Hyon-woo 25 Eliminated Kang Jin-sol 18 Eliminated **Last Consolation** (Wild Card) Name Age Results Kang Seung-yoon 17 Advanced Kim Geu-rim 24 Advanced Kim Hye-min 24 Eliminated Kim Yon-jin 25 Eliminated Moon Sun-young 26 Eliminated Woo Eun-mi 19 Eliminated Hyun Seung-hee 15 Advanced John Park 23 Advanced ## Rival Mission (Top 24) No. Names Category Winner Wild Card Wild Card Result 1 Jang Jae-in & Kim Ji-soo Guitar Artist Kim Ji-soo Jang Jae-in Advanced 2 Kang In-soo & Ju Eun-ji Performance Singers None 3 Lee Bo-kyoung & Sun Ji-hye Ballad Vocal None 4 Sean Lee & Yoon Ho-young Rap & RnB None 5 Hyun Seung-hee & Park Bo-ram Low-Teen Vocal Park Bo-ram Hyun Seung-hee Eliminated 6 Kang Seung-yoon & No Dae-young Male Guitarists Kang Seung-yoon 7 Kim Bo-kyung & Kim Geu-rim Female Guitarists Kim Geu-rim Kim Bo-kyung Eliminated 8 Hyun Ji-hye & Hong Nam-hwa Power Vocal None 9 Kim Seo Jung & Lee Bo-ram Dance Vocal Lee Bo-ram Kim Seo Jung Advanced 10 Kim Song-bob & Choi Joon-hyuk Sensitive Vocal None 11 Kim Eun-bi & Andrew Nelson High-Teen Vocal Kim Eun-bi Andrew Nelson Advanced 12 John Park & Huh Gak Soul Vocal John Park Huh Gak Advanced - Winner of each group advanced to the next round.
