KBS Banned (G)I-DLE “Wife” Due to Provocative Lyrics
(G)I-DLE’s upcoming album “2” is making waves, with a staggering 1.8 million pre-orders, marking it as their second million-seller in a row. This feat ranks them second in pre-order volumes among K-pop girl groups.
However, the group finds itself in the midst of controversy. (G)I-DLE’s latest hit, “Wife,” off their second album, is in hot water for not meeting KBS broadcast standards. On the 24th, KBS declared the track unfit due to its risqué lyrics.
KBS pointed fingers at specific lines for crossing the line, including
- “But that’s not enough, pick the cherry on top,”
- “From head to toe, just chop, chop, chop,”
Therefore, the song’s broadcast future hangs in the balance.
“Wife” isn’t alone in the (G)I-DLE controversy. “Rollie,” another album gem, also got the red flag for name-dropping a brand. Soyeon’s creative genius in “Wife” and Yuqi’s lyrical touch in “Rollie” are under scrutiny. (G)I-DLE must tweak the lyrics for KBS airplay.
Fans are torn over “Wife.” Some worry about its impact on young fans, while others argue for creative expression. The debate heats up, but so does the anticipation for (G) I-DLE’s “Super Lady,” promising a thrilling new chapter for the group.
Initially, (G)I-DLE was planning to apply for partial revision and retrial of “Wife” lyrics so they could perform it on TV. Later, they decided to focus on the title song activities instead.
Can They Bounce Back Stronger?
With all these hurdles they’re currently facing, (G)I-DLE is reportedly facing one of the most challenging comebacks. That is why fans are highly anticipating how the sensational girl group will bounce back and return with their upcoming comeback activities.
But what about you? Do you think (G)I-DLE will be able to return stronger than ever? Please share your thoughts in the comments.
