Group of k-pop girls Young group He returned once again in hot water: this time on controversial texts from their “soju” track outside the album Growing Pain Pt.1: Libero. Netizen and fans have expressed indignation on the suggestive lines of the song, above all since two members of the group are minor.
The line that causes the highest number of repercussions is “Remove the underwear”, That critics support are seriously inappropriate for a group whose younger members, Doeun (17) and Jieun (15), are still minors.
The problem gained impetus after the popular X account (previously Twitter) @Nugupromoter highlighted the texts, arousing widespread criticism and rekindling the concerns on the mature concept of the group from their debut. A user commented:
“This is beyond the concept: this is simply wrong. You cannot have the fifteen -year -olds associated with this type of content.”
While some fans attempted to defend the group, claiming that the texts were written and performed by adult members, their defense has done very little to repress the repercussions. Critics argue that, regardless of those who sing the lines, the company and the production team, they are ultimately responsible for the group’s content and image.
“It doesn’t matter who wrote it. If you want to make themed music for adults, do not debut minors”, Another user replied.
This controversy adds to a growing list of complaints about how young idols are managed and interpreted in the K-pop sector. Many now ask for greater control against centuries of debut and stronger regulations regarding the contents involving minors. Starting now, Young groupThe agency has not released a statement that addresses the problem.
