Selection process and format

Blind auditions

The season begins with the blind auditions, the first televised stage in the show. In the stage, the four coaches are seated in chairs that face the audience and away from the artists. The coaches judge the artists solely on their "vocal ability", and if they are interested in working with the artist, the coaches would press their button to face the artist. If multiple coaches turn, the artist would elect a coach's team to join. If only one coach turns, the artists are defaulted to that coach's team. At the end of the round, each coach will end up with a team that will advance to the next round.

Competitions

Following the blind auditions, the artists will compete in the sing-offs, the battles, semi-finals and the live finale.
