Rounds Round One: Rapper Selection Round For the Korea audition, this season marked the return of the stadium auditions, where contestants will register at the venue and take part in Round One on the same day. As a safety precaution from the COVID-19 pandemic, the contestants will be divided into small groups, with each contestant socially distanced from one another, and have a plexiglass placed between him/her and the assigned producer. Each contestant will perform a short a cappella rap in front of the producer. The producer then provide an in-depth evaluation of the contestant, and determine if they advanced to the next round. Similar to the previous two seasons, the contestant will grab the chain at the corner of the plexiglass if he/she passes the round.
A total of 108 contestants, including 5 from the Los Angeles audition, moved on to Round Two.

Round Two: 60-second Team Rapper Casting This round would be done in two parts. For the first part, the 108 contestants who moved on from Round One will each have to do a one minute rap in front of all judges. If all four producer teams failed the contestant, the beat stops and the contestant is eliminated from the show. Contestants who received at least one pass can proceed for Team Casting, where he/she chooses one of the team(s) that had passed him/her. However, during the Team Casting, the producer teams can eliminate contestants, such that each producer team would have only 11 contestants. After this round, 44 contestants moved on to Round Three, with 11 contestants in each producer team.
