[Newsie]

After FIESTAR’s song “One More” was banned by MBC for its suggestive lyrics, a representative said on July 10 to OSEN that the group would be releasing a new version of the lyrics. “The new lyrics will properly portray the smart phone game this time. Whether or not we will promote using the new lyrics has yet to be determined.”

On MBC’s decision to ban their song, FIESTAR’s rep said, “It’s something we have to accept but it’s a little puzzling. The song just portrays playing a smart phone game in a witty way, and it’s a shame that our intent was misinterpreted.”

Following their ban on FIESTAR’s “One More,” MBC announced that they would be cracking down on ambiguous lyrics. A “Music Core” rep said to OSEN on July 10, “It’s not just FIESTAR, but a lot of groups’ these days that have songs with really ambiguous phrases, where they could seem suggestive on one hand, but harmless on the other. Because our show airs at a time when broadcasts are censored for children, we will be cracking down on content that can be interpreted in a suggestive manner, regardless of the original intent.”
