Hello, this is Hieutpieup Co., Ltd. We have confirmed that Track 5, “The Star,” from B1A4’s 9th Mini Album [SET] was mistakenly distributed with an instrumental (INST) version in which the vocal track was omitted. We sincerely apologize to the fans who have been waiting for the album, as well as to the members who dedicated a great deal of time and effort to preparing it, for failing to identify this issue prior to the album’s release during the production process. We also deeply apologize for the delay in issuing this notice, as additional time was required to accurately determine the cause of the issue and prepare appropriate follow-up measures. Immediately upon confirming the issue, we began replacing and repackaging all remaining CD discs in stock. Starting May 20, albums containing the corrected CD disc will be shipped. For customers who have already purchased the album, please contact the customer service center of your respective retailer. A corrected CD disc containing the proper version of Track 5, “The Star,” will be additionally shipped beginning May 20. While we initially intended to proceed with a direct bulk reshipment ourselves, we ask for your kind understanding that, due to personal information protection and consent procedures, the replacement discs must be distributed through each retailer. Once again, we deeply apologize for the disappointment and inconvenience caused by this issue. We will take greater care throughout the production and quality control process to ensure that a similar issue does not occur again.
