LE SSERAFIM's highly anticipated new song "Ash" has recently been disqualified by KBS's music deliberation board, causing quite a stir in the K-pop world.

The track, part of LE SSERAFIM's upcoming 5th mini-album "HOT" slated for release on the 14th, was met with controversy as it was flagged for its problematic lyrics relating to physical and mental abuse, self-harm, and disturbing themes. The song, co-written and composed by Huh Yunjin, was among several others from the album found ineligible for broadcast by KBS's stringent standards.

Despite this setback, fans of the group can rest assured as songs like the title track "HOT" and "So Cynical (Badum)" are still in contention for airplay on KBS platforms. LE SSERAFIM's musical prowess shines through in the remaining tracks of the mini-album, keeping excitement alive among their devoted fanbase.

In a similar vein, A.M.F's tracks "DAMAGE (English ver.)" and "Damage" also faced disqualification by KBS, further underscoring the strict guidelines set forth by the music industry watchdog.

Stay tuned for more updates on LE SSERAFIM's upcoming album "HOT" as the group navigates obstacles and strives to deliver standout performances for their loyal supporters.
