DJ DOC clarified that their newest song "Address Known" was not misogynistic, but aimed specifically at President Park Geun Hye.
Originally, the trio was supposed to sing "Address Known" on stage at the candlelight protest on the 26th. However, a women's organization took issue with some of the lines in the song, and they could not stand on stage. DJ DOC said, "We were told by the people who organized the protest that we could not perform. 'Address Known' is a diss against President Park Geun Hye and the government administration, so it's disappointing that they saw it as misogynistic."
The problematic line was "Good by Miss Park senorita," and it was explained that 'Miss Park' is for President Park Geun Hye and stood for 'Mistake Park', and 'senorita' was used to talk about her political party 'Saenoori-dang' because they sounded similar in Korean.

Because they could not perform for the crowd, DJ DOC decided to participate in the protest by lighting their own candles to join the protest. The majority of protesters and netizens were disappointed and appalled that the lyrics could be even seen as misogynistic when the entire song was an obvious political commentary.
