On July 31, KBS deemed the following songs unfit for broadcast by national broadcasting station standards - GreeTELExTELEXS's "Fantasy", Red Soul Fever's "At The Roller Skating Rink", Sumin's "Pocket", pH-1's "You Don't Know My Name", and HA:TFELT's "Happy Now". 

HA:TFELT's new single "Happy Now" feat. MAMAMOO's Moon Byul is set for release this August 1 at 6 PM KST. The single was deemed unfit for broadcast due to a line which reads, "Life's a bitch", containing cursing. 

In response to the ruling, HA:TFELT's label Amoeba Culture revealed, "We plan to submit the song for re-evaluation after adjusting the problematic lyrics," most likely only for a KBS standards-version. Once the adjusted version of "Happy Now" passes broadcasting standards, the song will be eligible for broadcast on KBS radio stations and music programs.
