You will need your alien registration card (issued in Korea) and your alien registration number.

2. Once you connect to the SBS Ingigayo website (http://tv.sbs.co.kr/gayo/), you will need to click on the “Studio Audience Application” (방청신청), the fourth menu item down on the left-side of the main page.

Clicking on the “Studio Audience Application” (방청신청) option will connect you to a new page prompting you to log in. Type in your membership ID and password, and you will be led to the screen pictured below.
