The song "아직은 (Yet)," released in October on BEAST's debut mini album, includes the following line:
"내 몸을 감싼 이 허전함에 눈물로 밤을 새, oh shi_
The loneliness surrounds me as I spend the night in tears, oh shi_"
A Cube Entertainment representative responded to this accusation by saying, "Of course, the phrase was not used as a curse word."
