Popular Group's Title Track Banned For Broadcast, Sparking Concern And Suspicion - Koreaboo

Before making their comeback, groups engage in various activities to prepare for their album and music show promotions. In particular, albums are submitted to KBS, the network that hosts Music Bank, for approval to be broadcast.

Sometimes, a group's tracks are deemed "ineligible" for broadcast for any number of reasons, but they are usually B-sides on the album that would not have been promoted anyway.

Upcoming LE SSERAFIM Track Banned For Broadcast -- Sparks Major Criticism

Now, fans have expressed some concerns over a popular group's track being deemed ineligible.

Ahead of the album's November 11 release, KBS released its eligibility for broadcast and "Rizz" was deemed ineligible for broadcast due to "lyrics that are excessively sexually suggestive or provocative."

While it is possible that the lyrics were too sexual for broadcast, some fans have expressed concern over the censorship being linked to homophobia.

The medley highlight released by the group gave a look at the song's lyrics, which included the use of the word "boy" where "girl" would usually be used by a boy group.

Fans shared their thoughts on the ruling, expressing hopes that the ineligibility rating was not related to the sex used in the lyrics.
