The first cycle of Korea's Next Top Model (or Do-jeon Supermodel Korea) aired from September to December 2010 on OnStyle. The international destination was Paris. The winner was 20-year-old Lee Ji-min. Among her prizes were a feature in W Korea and a contract with SK-II.
The final 24 contestants were chosen from the pool of 50 during the auditions.
The final 24 were introduced to the host, Jang Yoon-ju, and competed in a runway challenge. They were introduced to a wildcard contestant, Min-sun. After a photo shoot with male models, 14 contestants were chosen as finalists.
The 14 girls moved into the model apartment – a penthouse overlooking the city. After receiving makeovers, they did their first official photo shoot, in which they posed as pin-up girls. Yu-ri and Hyo-kyeong's performances landed them in the bottom two and Yu-ri was the first girl eliminated.
The remaining girls did a high fashion recreation.
The girls participated in a paparazzi-themed photo shoot. At panel, it was revealed that two girls would be sent home. The bottom three contestants were Dan-bi, Il-hong and Young-eun. Young-eun was the first to be eliminated. The episode ended on a cliffhanger, with Dan-bi and Il-hong's verdicts being revealed the following episode.
Dan-bi was revealed as the second eliminee of the previous week.
The girls worked in conjunction with Project Runway Korea for this week's episode.
