GD&TOP’s newest addition to their promotion cycle, “Don’t Go Home,” managed to bring out a softer and more romantic image in lieu of the duo’s ‘hardcore’ one, but the song itself is ruffling some feathers in the music industry.
After MBC had banned the song twice for being too ’suggestive,’ their music video (originally scheduled for release on February 1st) has also been delayed despite passing reviews from KBS and SBS.
The music video release will be postponed to a later time because the final edit did not meet MBC’s standards.
Representatives from YG Entertainment revealed that they fail to understand MBC’s decision, as they firmly believed that the song didn’t contain any suggestive material whatsoever.
The company was adamant about keeping the song intact, and even went so far as to re-submit it for another evaluation without any edits. YG’s CEO, Yang Hyun Suk, made it clear that he would not be embark on any action that would interfere with the artist’s original intent, just so the song could be broadcasted.
Ultimately, it comes down to YG’s constant strive for perfection, which also comes at the cost of financial loss, as well as disappointed fans having to deal with the constant delays.
Regardless of these setbacks, however, many are expecting YG to continue pushing forward with their stance.
