Controversy

[edit]

On August 31, 2009, Korean broadcaster KBS banned the playing of the song "Won't Give You" because of inappropriate lyrics, specifically the following line that roughly translates to "Starting from today, I won't give myself to you. Now, I will never give you my entire heart. Now, I won't ever give myself to you." In response, Cube Entertainment stated, "The lyrics for "Won't Give You" is about the pure feelings of a girl to a guy. We are very disappointed that the lyrics were deemed inappropriate."[1]
