Chongqing Satellite TV will soon add to China's long list of authorized reproductions of foreign programs with a new talent show aimed at finding future film stars.

Based on the hard-hitting acting talent show Miracle Audition, on South Korean TV channel SBS, the Zhongguo Menggongchang (China Dreamworks) will visit South Korea and the US to give young Chinese hopefuls a chance to make their acting dreams come true.

The 17-episode show will go through four different phases: open audition, grand elimination, dream college and the final contest.

An all-star team of judges will include Hong Kong singer and actress Karen Mok, actress Tang Wei and Hong Kong film director Peter Chan.

Top contestants will have a chance to act in a modern-setting TV drama that's specifically written for them.
