# The Voice Cambodia

The Voice Cambodia is a Cambodian reality singing competition. The first season premiered on Hang Meas HDTV on August 3, 2014. One of the important premises of the show is the quality of the singing talent. Four coaches, themselves popular performing artists, train the talents in their group. Talents are selected in blind auditions, where the coaches cannot see, but only hear the auditioner. The winner will receive 100 million Cambodian riel ($25,000), and become a singer for Hang Meas Production. As of January 2023, a third season is set to return.
It is the fifth national franchise in the Southeast Asian region after Vietnam, Thailand, Indonesia, and Philippines.

## Format

The series consists of three phases:
* Blind Auditions
* Battle Round
* Live Shows

### Blind Auditions

Four judges/coaches, all famous musicians, will choose teams of contestants through a blind audition process. Judges have the length of the auditionee's performance to decide whether to select that singer for their team. If two or more judges want the same singer then the singer gets to choose which coach they want to work with.

### Battle Round

Each team of singers will be mentored and developed by their coach. In the second stage, coaches will have two of their team members battle against each other by singing the same song, with the coach choosing which team member will advance to the next stage, but the one who is not chosen by the coach still has another chance from another coaches' steal to advance them to the next stage too.

### Live Shows

In the final phase, the remaining contestants will compete against each other in live broadcasts. The television audience will help to decide who moves on. When one team member remains for each coach, the contestants will compete against each other in the finale.

## Hosts and coaches

The show is hosted by Chea Vibol and Chan Keonimol, while the judges are Aok Sokunkanha, Chhorn Sovannareach, Pich Sophea and Nop Bayyareth, four prominent singers in Cambodia.
