Doors are open to anyone with special skills or talents, people with amazing real life stories, and people with special pets or collections.
The show Star King, where people show their special talents, dreams of making all Koreans into stars. The show is both entertaining and touching, featuring a large variety of people who come to show off even some of the easiest skills, professional-like singing, or amateur artists who were able to overcome their disabilities. Like a contestant once said, it is the only show where celebs applaud for the ordinary people. Its purpose is to draw the hidden talents and efforts out into the wide open and to give people hope.
