According to Korean media, the song “Clik Clak” from Baby Monster’s first full-length album “Drip” has been determined by the music evaluation board of Korean station KBS to be unqualified for broadcast.
“Clik Clak” violated Article 46 of the KBS Broadcasting Review Regulations, as the lyrics mentioned specific product brands such as Ferrari, Cartier, Maybach.
According to KBS's music review policy, songs that receive an unqualified rating can be re-submitted for review by editing or removing problematic parts. Only songs that pass the review can be played on KBS programs (TV, radio, etc.).
This means that Baby Monster will not be able to perform this song on KBS's weekly music show Music Bank.
However, the remaining songs in the album “Drip” including “Drip”, “Love, Maybe”, “Really Like You”, “BILLIONAIRE”, “Love In My Heart”, “Woke Up In Tokyo (Ruka & Asa)” all passed the review.
“Clik Clak” is the double title track of the album “Drip”. The music video for the song, released on YouTube on October 30, has now garnered 45 million views after 1 week.
Meanwhile, the MV “Drip” has surpassed 50 million views after 5 days. YG Entertainment has released dance performance videos for both songs.
In addition, Baby Monster is expected to continue promoting through music shows, radio, and other platforms.
Baby Monster's performance in Korea has not been great, but the group's international performance is quite positive. The song "Drip" has entered both the global Spotify and global Apple Music charts.
