KBS unbans Lee Hyori’s Chitty Chitty Bang Bang music video

Having banned Lee Hyori’s Chitty Chitty Bang Bang music video last week, it was revealed that KBS has given the ok signal to the re-edited version and it will now be playable on their channel from April 22nd.

The music video was revealed to have been banned by KBS because it violated traffic regulations such as Hyori driving without her seat belt on, dancers dancing on top of buses and Hyori and the dancers dancing on the road.

Having intially deciding not to edit the video, MNET Media then proceeded to delete the problematic scenes, which led to a significant reduction in running time, as 1 min and 30 seconds of footage was edited out. The re-edited music video was submitted to KBS on the 19th for another review and they announced on the 22nd that it can be played on their channel with a +12 rating.

The re-edited video was also submitted to MBC and SBS with the former labeling the video as suitable for all ages, after slapping the original video with a +15 rating. SBS who previously slapped a +12 rating, will reveal their decision on the 23rd.
