Brave Brothers Hit With Criticism Over “Outdated” Lyrics For New K-Pop Group Candy Shop
본문
On March 27, BRAVE Entertainment debuted their new four-member girl group, Candy Shop, with the mini-album Hashtag# and title track “Good Girl”. This is the label’s first girl group debut in over a decade since Brave Girls (now known as BB GIRLS) debuted back in 2011, and K-Pop fans have been curious to see how they would manage the new artist after BB GIRLS left the company in 2023.
Candy Shop | BRAVE EntertainmentThe group consists of Soram, Yuina, Sui, and Sarang, who range between the ages of 16 and 18. The teasers that led up to their debut showed promising talent and visuals, and the members themselves didn’t disappoint with their performance abilities for the music video and live performances of “Good Girl”.
However, the debut hasn’t avoided criticism. While “Good Girl” itself is a catchy and enjoyable song, once listeners started realizing what exactly the lyrics of the song were, they began calling BRAVE Entertainment and the song’s producer, Brave Brothers, outdated in their creation.
Here’s the translation for the lyrics of “Good Girl” (based on Genius Korea):
Netizens are finding the lyrics cringey and belonging to a past era of K-Pop a decade or more earlier. They’ve also expressed sympathy for the members for having to sing these lyrics, with the criticism directed entirely at Brave Brothers himself.
