DBSK’s 4th album was put under the 19 year age banned by the Youth Safety Association on November, however SM.ENT will starting next week file a legal case against this to the Justice Court/ District Court.
DBSK’s Management SM Entertainment (SM), quoted by Money Today’s Star News: “We will go through administrative measures against the suspension by filing a case next week to the District Court” and “We have been getting ready for this legal case on the 2nd”
“We have agreed to release a clean version of ‘Jumon - Mirotic’ by the administrative order, but this is something we do not agree with and feel this is entirely unfair. Therefore we have decided to file a case to the court against the administration’s disclosure.”
The Ministry for Health, Welfare and Family Affairs administration has on the November 27th declared that DBSK’s 4th album’s Mirotic’s lyrics were provocative and is harmful to the Youths.
The Commission of Youth Protection have said that the words and the meaning of ‘Jumon-Mirotic’ is not the only problem but the entire lyrics’ meaning was harmful and overly suggestive (sexually).
After the Commission of Youth Protection had released this statement SM.ENT said “Even before when the order had been put against MIROTIC, we have clearly negotiated and tried to explain the real meaning and explanation of the lyrics, but even after this the results came out unexpectedly and we are bewildered as of this moment” “and the JUMON -MIROTIC’s lyrical meaning is entirely different and miles away from the erotic or sexual that the association is making it to be.”
DBSK’s 4th album by the end of November hit 460,000 sales. This is the highest record sale for this year out of any artists/idols.
However with the current condition and news coverage of DBSK’s CD age ban has caused Japanese Media to release news coverage of this. On the 4th, Japan’s AsahiTv, Nihon Tv. etc. released their coverage as ‘Asia’s Star DBSK and the ban of the CD release single MIROTIC. Sankei Sports news on the 5th, Sports-Nippon released their news “Age ban on DBSK 4th album, will this affect DBSK’s attendance for NHK’s Red White ceremony?” (The PD for NHK has already released a statement saying that this incident will not affect DBSK’s attendance for NHK’s Red White ceremony)
DBSk has also hit the top charts in Japan’s Oricon charts numerous times, and have won twice in a row the “Golden Artists Award” at the Best Hits Gayo Awards.
