Universe Ticket (2023–2024)

Universe League (Korean: 유니버스 리그) is a 2024-2025 South Korean reality competition show created by SBS. The show followed the process of creating a new boy group. It premiered on SBS TV on November 22, 2024, and aired every Friday at 23:20 (KST). In the finale on January 24, 2025, which was broadcast live, the show announced the final nine members who would debut as AHOF (abbreviation for All-time Hall Of Famer) and will be managed by F&F Entertainment.

The show served as a sequel to Universe Ticket, this time featuring all male contestants.

Concept

Universe League is built around a league-style format, dividing 42 contestants into three teams: Beat, Rhythm, and Groove. The competition unfolds over five stages, collectively referred to as P.R.I.S.M, with each stage focusing on a distinct aspect of the contestants, otherwise known as players' journeys. The ultimate goal is to win the Prism Cup, which secures the team's debut in a new boy group.

Background and promotion

At the end of the finale episode of Universe Ticket on January 17, 2024, a "Coming Soon" video was released and announced the second season titled Universe League. On January 22, F&F Entertainment announced the preparation for the season two and planned to broadcast it on SBS at the end of this year.

On April 15, SBS and F&F organized a global audition and began recruiting boys who were born before 2011 regardless of nationality starting April 22.

On October 14, SBS announced that the program would premiere on November 22, after releasing the concept trailer on its social media accounts. The next day, the profiles of the 42 contestants were revealed.

1	"Episode.01"	November 22, 2024 (2024-11-22)
Universe League is a K-pop survival show built around a league-style format, with 42 contestants divided into 3 teams. The show begins with "Pick", the first stage out of the five stages in P.R.I.S.M. The contestants form teams through a draft process and showcase their skills. The picked trainees form the "Starting Players". Those who are not picked need to wait until the mentors pick them to form the "Bench Players" of each team.
2	"Episode.02"	November 29, 2024 (2024-11-29)
Right after the judges picked and formed their starting players, its time for them to choose their bench players to complete the team. The second stage from P.R.I.S.M, "Represent", is introduced. The teams are given songs that each player needs to perform, and the winning team is decided through voting by the studio audience. Starting players perform first and "Team Rhythm" was declared as the winner.
3	"Episode.03"	December 6, 2024 (2024-12-06)
The bench players perform and "Team Groove" is declared as the winner. Combining the scores of starting and bench players, "Team Groove" emerges as the overall winner of the "Represent" round. After the performances, the three teams are rearranged based on the number of votes each player received. Yellow cards are given to those who have the least votes. Players ranked 1–7 will be the starting players, while contestants ranked 8–14 will be the bench players. Yellow cards are given based on the results of the "Represent" round. The team which ranked second is given three yellow cards, while the team which ranked third is given six yellow cards. If a contestant receives two yellow cards, they are immediately be eliminated. Additionally, the trading system is also introduced. Teams are given trade tickets to choose the players that they want for their team. Trade tickets are given based on the results of the current round. The team who ranked first is given two trade tickets, while the team who ranked second is given one trade ticket.
4	"Episode.04"	December 13, 2024 (2024-12-13)
It is now time to begin the next stage, "Intercept". In this round, the starting players are given original songs composed by the directors of the team. The bench players are given a chance to choose which team they will intercept or compete with. Just like the last round, live votes from on-site voters determine the teams that will get the opportunity to release the original songs.
5	"Episode.05"	December 20, 2024 (2024-12-20)
The performance of the players continued with a mix of emotions. Some teams were unable to get and secure the song, while others are happy that they were able to get and release the original song given to them. Right after the performance, it is now time to rearrange the players once again and determine who will get yellow cards. Some contestants were eventually eliminated after they received two yellow cards.
6	"Episode.06"	December 27, 2024 (2024-12-27)
To celebrate this holiday season, contestants take a break from intense competition to participate in festive-themed challenges and performances. The episode features heartwarming moments as the trainees bond over holiday traditions, engage in exciting and fun games, and showcase their talents through Christmas carol covers and dance performance. While still maintaining the competitive spirit, the holiday special focuses on camaraderie, growth, and celebrating the season, leaving both contestants and viewers with a sense of warmth and unity.
7	"Episode.07"	January 10, 2025 (2025-01-10)
The next stage of P.R.I.S.M, the "SEVEN" round, is about to begin. Following their performance in the previous round, the mentors will form two 7-member groups, each performing two songs on stage. Rankings don't affect the groupings, so both starting and bench players may end up in the same team. The mentors also have the option to make changes to the lineup before the performance. Only the contestants chosen to perform are eligible for live votes, and if a player is selected for both songs, they will receive double scores.
8	"Episode.08"	January 17, 2025 (2025-01-17)
As the seven round unfolds, the atmosphere becomes charged with tension and excitement, gripping players, mentors, and the audience alike. Following the energetic and captivating performances of the groups representing Unit 2, the much-anticipated moment arrives when the scores and overall standings are to be revealed. Amid the unexpected developments, the trading phase begins, introducing an additional layer of strategy and unpredictability to the competition. During this phase, players are issued yellow cards as penalties for certain infractions or underperformance. The tension escalates further as some players, after receiving two yellow cards, are ultimately eliminated from the competition. The unfolding events leave the audience in suspense, while players and mentors are compelled to adapt their strategies to navigate the high-stakes environment.
9	"Episode.09"	January 18, 2025 (2025-01-18)
This episode marks the beginning of the final round of P.R.I.S.M.: "Move". The top 21 players were determined through a combination of fan votes and the producers' selections. Players chosen via fan votes varied depending on their team's overall ranking, based on the combined votes from Rounds 1 to 3. Team Rhythm secured first place overall, earning the opportunity to select five players through fan votes. Team Groove, which ranked second, was able to select three players, while Team Beat, in third place, could select just one player. After this process, the producers were given the opportunity to finalize the teams. Regardless of previous trades, they could select players from any team to complete the lineup that will compete in the final episode.
10	"Episode.10"	January 24, 2025 (2025-01-24)
The final stage of the Universe League, titled "W.A.R. (We Are Ready)", has officially begun. This decisive round is the ultimate opportunity to claim the prestigious P.R.I.S.M Cup. For this stage, the directors have selected two songs for each team, which will be performed by the 21 finalists. The winners will be determined based on the total votes accumulated during the Final Voting Period and the live voting session. The team with the highest votes will secure victory. Additionally, two players with the most votes from the two losing teams will join the debut group, forming a new 9-member boy band called AHOF, an abbreviation for "All-time Hall Of Famer".

^ Li Zhinuo was eliminated during the pre-finale ranking despite ranking ninth as the public voting result only gave five slots at maximum and Team Rhythm, despite being given the maximum slots, had maxed out their slots due to the number of contestants in the team at a higher rank. The remaining slots were selected by the directors, who were unaware of the rankings during the time of selection.

^ Any contestant who received a second Yellow Card would automatically be eliminated
^ Maximum of 400 votes per performance
