Asia Bagus! was a star-search program created by Fuji Television spanning from 1992[1] until 2000 to promote young up-and-coming performing artists in Asia. The show broadcast once a week for 24 episodes from April to September[1] throughout Indonesia, Singapore, Malaysia, Korea, Japan, Taiwan (from 1994)[2] and Thailand.

The contestants featured in the program were twelve[3] amateur singers[4] between the age of 12 and 25,[5] selected from 300 entries each month from the participating countries.[3] Three singers from each country, selected from the auditions,[6] were encouraged to sing in their native languages.[5][6] The prevailing champion over three shows went on to compete in a monthly run-off, while grand championships were held once a year. The grand champion of each year will record a solo album while the winners for the monthly run-offs will record an album together.[5]

Former hosts include Tomoko Kadowaki from Japan and Najip Ali from Singapore.[5][7][8] Singaporean Moses Lim also once co-hosted Asia Bagus in 1994[9] while 1993 champion Construction Sight duos Sheikh Haikel and Ashidiq Ghazali became the hosts for 1996.[3] Another Japanese woman was once a co-host of the show.[10]

For the 1996 season, a new segment called Big Asia was added, where Najip Ali interviewed personalities from Asia.[3]

Etymology
