SEVENTEEN’s ‘God of Music’ Becomes Latest Banned Song During CSAT Exam Season

SEVENTEEN has another hit in their hands but the success of “God of Music” might be too good for students. The new track has just been deemed “banned” during the CSAT exam season!

In South Korea, there exists an unofficial list of songs that are often referred to as “banned” among students due to their irresistibly catchy and addictive nature. This list typically includes tracks like SF9’s “O Sole Mio,” SHINee’s “Ring Ding Dong,” BTS’s “Go Go,” aespa’s “Next Level,” and many others. Now, it seems there is a new addition to this list, and it hails from the popular group SEVENTEEN.

SEVENTEEN’s Latest Hit ‘Banned’ During CSAT Exam Season

SEVENTEEN has consistently released incredibly catchy songs over the years, and their recent track, “God of Music” from the album ‘SEVENTEENTH HEAVEN’ is no exception. Despite its release during autumn, it has garnered attention for bringing back a summery vibe.

As expected, the song has quickly climbed the music charts, but it has gone even further by making its way into college campuses. In a recent news article, it was revealed that “God of Music” has now been classified as a “banned” song by students.

The term “banned” in this context relates to the College Scholastic Ability Test, known as CSAT or “Suneung” in South Korea. This standardized test, administered by the Korea Institute of Curriculum and Evaluation, plays a crucial role in university admissions in the country. The test is conducted annually on the third Thursday of November, with the upcoming examination scheduled for November 16, 2023.

The decision to label songs as “banned” during this period is often a precaution to ensure that students remain focused on their studies and do not get distracted by catchy tunes in the lead-up to this important examination. As a testament to the power of SEVENTEEN’s music, “God of Music” has joined the ranks of such songs, temporarily considered too irresistible for students preparing for the CSAT.
