AVSCThirdEdition

Asian Voice Song Contest # 3
Asian Voice Song Contest # 3 (or AVSC # 3) is the third edition of Asian Voice Song Contest.

About
The third edition will be held in Seoul, South Korea after CN Blue won with their song, "Intuition" in the AVSC # 2. Cyprus was voted not to participate in this edition and in future AVSC editions, after a "Should Cyprus be included in the next edition of AVSC?" survey was held with 9 users saying No against the 7 users who voted for Yes, because Cyprus was too European and less Asian to be accepted in the contest despite it's geographical location. Cyprus will be concentrating in joining the Eurovision Song Contest instead. In this edition, the new format of the semi-finals and the big 5 is also introduced.

Participants
Here are the list of the Big 5 countries that are automatically included in the Finals:

 * Originally, Pakistan's entry was "Khamoshi" which battled out Afghanistan's "Aram Aram" but was found out to be an original soundtrack from a Pakistani drama which is against the AVSC rules so it was replaced by "Aik Baar" instead.
