Individual teaser photos of B.A.P for 1st mini-album "NO MERCY" [TS Entertainment]
Boy band B.A.P is faced with a last minute problem before dropping their new album, TS Entertainment officials said in a press release this morning.All 50,000 copies of B.A.P's first mini-album "NO MERCY" were found to be defective on the day of its release, July 19, and the officials have made a quick decision to discard the records before going into reproduction."We've been devoting all our energy to unleash the album both online and in record shops on July 19 but there's been a subtle difference in the color of the print," a rep with the agency was quoted as saying."To keep the promise we've made with fans, to provide the top quality for all albums, we've decided to discard all copies produced."As seen from B.A.P's jacket teasers released earlier this week, the concept of "NO MERCY" is inspired from pop art and requires a precise combination of primary colors in a printing process.Despite the faulty product issues, all five tracks in "NO MERCY" were released online at midnight and the title song instantly sat at No. 10 on music distributer Melon's real time singles chart, as of 8 a.m. KST.Meanwhile, the "WARRIOR" singers are scheduled to perform the first televised comeback performance on Mnet "M!CountDown" this evening.※ Any copying, republication or redistribution of 10Asia's content is expressly prohibited without prior consent of 10Asia.
