After banning songs from X-5 and ZE:A last month, the Commission of Youth Protection is back with a new slew of songs that they’ve deemed were inappropriate for minors.

The new list includes Mimi Sisters‘ “Mimimimimimimimi” and C’est Si Bon Friends‘ “One Glass of Memory.” The two songs were determined to be harmful for youth due to their use of slang and reference to alcohol.

Hip hop artists weren’t spared this time either - Block B’s debut track “Freeze!” also made the list because the Commission felt that their lyrics expressed unwholesome dating methods. Four tracks from Soul Dive’s new mini-album, “Bad Habits” got lumped in with J-Tong’s “Poo” and Eluphant’s “Superstar” because of their use of slang and sexually suggestive expressions.

As reported earlier, songs that are judged as harmful media to the youth cannot be sold to minors under the age of 19, and also cannot be aired before 10 PM.

What is unwholesome dating methods? I wonder.
Jamming to Eluphant's Superstar. And by the way, their new album is damn good. 키덜트 (Featuring 윤두준 Of Beast) and 월요병 (Featuring Soulman)<3

I dunno. Korea's all backward and shit these days. This Commission of Youth Protection sounds like bullshit with a capital s-t-u-p-i-d.

Still lol-ing over the "unwholesome dating methods" thing tbh. I mean, seriously, it's like they're pulling all these excuses out of their asses.

Feeling sorry for those artists, though, especially Block B -- what with them being rookies and all. :/

With all the studying Korean kids do, you'd think laws like these would be pointless anyway since they don't have any time to enjoy pop-culture as it is.

It's not the responsibility of the government to censor, it's the responsibility of the parents. If the parents are that worried about their children hearing slang (God forbid they don't hear it in school), there are countless technologies that can stop that. It's slightly more loose in the US but the shit that TV censors is stupid /anti-censorship

unwholesome dating methods.

from watching korean dramas, i have learned that the best way to bring all the boys to the yard is by dressing up as a boy.

yeap. let's ban dramas while we're at it.

This is just plane stupid, I can see no reason as to why they decide to put these bans on songs.. It's not as if they can't listen to them online anyway, if they go to the right places.

.. and btw, is 19 the Korean age or the.. "normal" age? xD
