The controversial audition program 'Under 15' will not be airing on MBN.

On March 28 KST, the production staff of 'Under 15' stated, "After much consideration and debate, it has been decided that the program will take some time to reorganize and protect its contestants. The program's premiere on March 31 has been cancelled. It will no longer air on MBN."

The staff continued, "We promise to reorganize in a direction that will not harm the sincerity of the contestants and the goals of the program."

Previously, 'Under 15' received severe backlash for recruiting female contestants under the age of 15, including young girls born in 2015 and 2015.
