8 Asians

Here is something eliminated American Idol contestant HeeJun Han might want to put in his back pocket: before he goes on his American Idols Live tour to such exciting places like Broomfield, Colorado and Jackson, Mississippi, he now has a chance to follow fellow ex-Idol John Kim’s footsteps and participate in Korean Idol equivalent SuperStar K.  Their global preliminary auditions come to LA and New York next month, and with his current experience it would be all but certain he would be a finalist on that show, too. Especially if he plays the “guitar, base and jembe.” (Oh, Koreans! You mean the djembe. I think.)
