MNL48 Poll

Brief Background of MNL48:

MNL48 was announced on March 26, 2016 along with two other international sister groups TPE48 and BNK48. On May of the same year, a fan-meeting was held in Movie Stars Cafe at SM Mall Of Asia to solicit ideas from the fans regarding topics such as merchandise, costumes, and even the price of the theater tickets.

The MNL48 Plus App was launched on December of 2016 to coincide with AKB48 Team 8's visit for the "60 Years of Philippines-Japan Friendship Celebration". The app - which has been previously leaked- suddenly went live hours before Team 8 held a Fan-Event in Movie Stars Cafe (also the first official AKB48 fan event ever to be held in the Philippines).

The audition period, originally planned to last for a few months, was indefinitely extended until the partnership between Hallohallo Entertainment Inc and Philippine media giant ABS-CBN was announced on September 21, 2017. From then on, the audition will be co-produced by the two media outfits with a segment in the network's noon-time show "It's Showtime" running from January 20, 2018 to April 2018.

The audition was re-launched last October 14, 2017 with a Nationwide Registration and Audition Tour culminating in a Grand Registration and Audition on December 2 and 3 at the ABS CBN Compound which was graced by another Team 8 visit.

A total of 4,134 aspirants auditioned to become one of the first generation members of MNL48. The Top 200 was unveiled on January 20, 2018 and underwent a panel interview which consists of ABS-CBN executives and HHE President Paolo Kurosawa.

Objective of the Poll:

This poll is an opinion poll which will allow each and every MNL48 aspirant to vote for their favorite aspirant to be in the 1st Generation of MNL48.
