Superband (Korean: 슈퍼밴드) is a South Korean talent show produced by JTBC in 2019, where indie musicians were invited to perform and eventually create a "superband", competing against each other.
The average viewership rating was around 3%, and the show received positive and negative feedback, as well. The concept and its genre diversity was praised, while the media heavily criticised the lack of female participants. Only involving the viewers in the decision process at the end of the show drew criticism, as well.
Besides the winning band, the 2nd, 3rd, 5th and 6th place bands also signed with different production companies after the show.
The winner was Hoppipolla.[2] The show was produced by the same production team of Phantom Singer and Hidden Singer.[3]
