Stray Kids is on the verge of releasing their highly anticipated comeback, “KARMA,” with dozens of surprises for their fans, better known as STAY. However, one particular song from the upcoming project caused a commotion among the KBS music review committee.
On August 7, Stray Kids revealed a short snippet of their song, “삐처리 (BLEEP),” which was ruled unsuitable for airing due to its lyrics. The KBS network further explained that the song contains expressions that “promote antisocial or unhealthy values,” and that’s why it’s deemed as unfit for broadcast.
Despite KBS’ recent announcement, Stray Kids will not be altering the lyrics or resubmitting the track for re-evaluation. The group is currently focused on promoting the title track, “CEREMONY,” which means there are no plans to revise “BLEEP.”
While “BLEEP” may not make it to KBS broadcasts, fans will still support the song once the album officially drops on August 22. The reckless Stray Kids’ spirit has become their biggest feature, and surely “BLEEP” will be embracing all of this energy.
