CL and her staff seem to have recognized her mistake.
CL had gone under fire after using the unedited "MTBD" track during her Los Angeles show during her "Hello Bi+ches" tour in USA. When she released her solo track "MTBD" back in 2014, the song had become highly controversial when
Muslims noticed that the background track sounded very much like a
reading of a verse from the Quran. As the Quran is the central text of
Islam, Muslims protested that it is extremely offensive and it should
not be made light of by being put in a song or used for entertainment
purposes of any form.
The Korea Muslim Federation had raised a formal complaint, and YG Entertainment had ultimately decided to take out the controversial part of the song out. However, the unedited track somehow made its way into her setlist during the Los Angeles show.
While she has not issued an explanation or made an apology, she and her
staff did correct the issue right away. For her Dallas show (held just a
few hours ago), she performed the edited "MTBD" track.
