The festival, which was non-competitive, took place in the KBS Concert Hall, located in the South Korean capital of Seoul and coincided with the 49th general assembly of the Asia-Pacific Broadcasting Union (ABU). Eleven countries confirmed their participation in the first edition of the competition. The Asia-Pacific Broadcasting Union (ABU) had previously ran international contests, inspired by the Eurovision Song Contest, for their members during 1985 – 1987. The European Broadcasting Union had proposed a partnership with the ABU in 2008 to establish the Asiavision Song Contest, however these talks never produced any results. The ABU announced in 2011 that they would organise their own ABU Radio and TV Song Festivals. The format used was different from that of the Eurovision Song Contest, as there were two festivals that took place. The ABU TV Song Festival was a non-competitive musical gala orientated, while the Radio Song Festival was the competitive. The festival was not aired live by any of the competing broadcasters, but is scheduled to be broadcast between October and November 2012. == History == (詳細はAsia-Pacific Broadcasting Union (ABU) had already run an international song contest for its members inspired by the Eurovision Song Contest in 1985 – 1987, called the ''ABU Popular Song Contest'', with 14 countries of the Asia-Pacific region competing. The show had a similar concept to the current festivals with winners being chosen by a professional jury. South Korea, New Zealand and Australia celebrated victories in this competition. In 1989 – 1991 ABU co-produced the ''ABU Golden Kite World Song Festival'' in Malaysia with participation of Asia-Pacific countries, as well as Yugoslavia and Finland.〔 In 2008, the European Broadcasting Union (EBU) proposed a partnership with ABU on the establishment of an ''Asiavision Song Contest'',〔 however these talks didn't produce any result, and in September 2008 it was announced that the Eurovision Song Contest format for Asian production had been sold to a private company from Singapore, Asiavision Pte. Ltd.〔 The original name intended for that event was ''Asiavision Song Contest'', but it was later changed to ''Our Sound - The Asia-Pacific Song Contest'' following a request from the ABU, who uses the Asiavision name for their news exchange service.〔 Initially, the contest (which was supposed to be a two program live broadcast TV show with public voting) was set to premiere in 2009, but it was later rescheduled for March 2010 in Macao and then for November 2010 in Mumbai, at the end being postponed indefinitely "due to the ongoing issues between the organizers and EBU". Shortly before launching the ABU Song Festival, the ABU had been considering the possibility to organize the ''ABU ASEAN TV Song Festival'' in Thailand.〔 Historically, ASEAN song contests had been organized in periods between 1981 and 1997, however since 2011 the ASEAN Festival had been organized between local Radio stations as ''Bintang Radio ASEAN''. In November 2011, the ABU announced that they would organize its own TV and Radio Song Festivals to take place in Seoul, the South Korean capital, in time with 49th General Assembly in October 2012. The name ''Asiavision Song Contest'' was initially mentioned as a possibility, but they were later officially titled ''ABU TV Song Festival'' and ''ABU Radio Song Festival''. According to the ABU, the deadline for participation applications for ABU TV Song Festival was 18 May 2012.〔 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「ABU TV Song Festival 2012」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
