SM Entertainment has announced that it will edit out the controversial scenes from Red Velvet’s debut music video for ‘Happiness’.
The new group debuted with a rocky start yesterday when their music video attracted headlines in Japan.
Shortly after the release of the music video for "Happiness", Japanese media reported that images referencing the bombing of Hiroshima and Nagasaki as well as the tragedy of the 9/11 attacks were seen in the video.

SM said the director of the MV had no intention to offend fans.
SM Entertainment responded to the reports, explaining, "After questioning the director, we found that he simply used a collage source for the images, and there was no intention behind it."
The agency said it would make sure the incident would not repeat in the future again.
“As SM wasn’t able to catch it before, we will remove the material that caused the misunderstanding as soon as possible. We will make sure not to let this kind of thing happen in the future.”
