VIXX, Ravi
Ravi has issued an apology for his MV.

He released the MV for "Bomb" a few hours ago, from his first ever solo mini-album. However, some viewers weren't very happy with some scenes in his MV. In the MV, Ravi sits on a couch surrounded by women clad only in their underwear, seemingly proud of having them around him. Many became angry at his objectification of women, because it seemed like he was treating them as trophies to have. 

Ravi tweeted an apology, writing, "Hello, this is Ravi. I checked that there was controversy of objectifying and degrading women around a scene in the MV of my title song 'Bomb'. I reflect on my actions that I did not realize this could cause a disturbance. I apologize sincerely to those who were bothered. I will be more careful in the future, and work and think about how to make good music and songs. I'm sorry."

What do you think about the situation?
