A song from the upcoming solo debut album of BTS’ Jimin was deemed “ineligible” for television broadcasting, according to a review by KBS released Wednesday.

The review cited profanity, slang and indecent expressions in the lyrics as reasons. Face-Off is the first track from the album Face, and the artiste, along with bandmate RM, co-wrote the lyrics.

Other tracks from the album – focus track Like Crazy and Alone – qualified for airing.

Meanwhile, a pre-release from the album, Set Me Free Pt. 2, landed atop Oricon’s weekly digital single ranking on Wednesday, after topping its daily digital single ranking upon release. It also was No. 1 on the iTunes Top Songs chart in 111 regions. – The Korea Herald/Asia News Network
