Previously, Zico's "Tough Cookie" MV became an immensely controversial topic as international netizens angrily noticed the use of the Confederate flag on his jacket as well as the use of "f*ggot" in the lyrics, "You're such a f*ggot b*tch."
His agency, Seven Seasons, stepped up on November 11 to offer an explanation to fans about Zico's questionable choice of words. �The agency stated, "We did not use the word 'f*ggot' in 'Tough Cookie' with the intention to disparage homosexuality. �This is just borrowed from the musical [style] and musical discourse.
If we had definitely known that the word in question was meant to criticize homosexuality, we would have severely censored it. �Just as how Zico is freely doing music-related things, he has no judgment or negative intentions in relation to homosexuality and respects the sexual minority."
