Prodigies Pop (Thai TV series)

:For the original format, see Prodigies (Thai TV series)
Prodigies Pop is a Thai music talent show for singers, dancers, and musicians aged 7 to 16 and is based on the pop music version of the French reality competition Prodiges. All performances are accompanied by a choir of roughly 40 voices and a full orchestra of approximately 60 members under the direction of Ria Mulyani. The inaugural season premiered on April 20, 2024.
Unlike the original series in France, for which both episodes in each season are pre-recorded, the season finale in Thailand's version is a live show for which the overall winner is decided solely by televoting despite the super finalists from each category being decided by the corresponding judge. The semi-final, however, is pre-recorded.
