Despite its overwhelming success, Psy’s music video for “Gentleman” has been ruled by the local television station KBS unfit for broadcast. However, YG Entertainment announced that it will not be appealing against its decision.

YG Entertainment expressed, “We expected this kind of ruling so we don’t expect that a repeal will have any significance.” They added, “We accept their decision, and we are cool with it. There’s nothing else we can do at this point, and we will not file an appeal.”

Due to scenes that portray the damage to public property, Psy’s music video for “Gentleman” was deemed unsuitable for broadcast.
