MIROTIC is NOT Banned in Japan
by Kat ~ December 5th, 2008

Note that this is only a rough tranlsation
He said that the banning desicion that applies to MIROTIC Korea version is in regard to Korea only since that’s the decision of the Commission on Youth Protection in South Korea.

While the Japan version of MIROTIC won’t take the effect and it’s decided for all Japanese TV programmes, the broadcast of MIROTIC Japan version doesn’t have any problems.

The reason is that, eventhough Japan and South Korea in the last few years, there are cultural exchanges.. However, in each country, the country’s unique culture is the moral standards (T/N: I think that means the moral standard that is applied in South Korea and Japan is quite different, in Japan, MIROTIC is not considered as a harm to Japanese moral standard).

Seems that the banning issue of MIROTIC Korea ver has spread to Japan, so he tried to do some damage control as for MIROTIC Japan version.

The man is the producer of Music Japan, by the way
