IKON Philippines
IKON Philippines is a reality singing competition which searches for a champion among existing or established artistes rather than among new, unknown starlets as in other such singing competitions. The programme was co-launched with IKON Indonesia and IKON Malaysia in late 2006 as an initiative to search for an artiste who can represent the country in the regional (ASEAN) level. The verdict is determined by 70% of jury marks and 30% SMS.
