Muslims and fans around the world find the imitation disrespectful and offensive. Thousands of people criticized the Kpop group and GF Entertainment and asked them to change the album design. 

On September 21, the KINGDOM’s agency announced that preorders for the upcoming album would be postponed due to ‘internal circumstances.’ Finally, GF Entertainment has come forward and apologized for the oversight regarding KINGDOM’s 7th mini album cover.

In response to the controversy, KINGDOM’s agency responded saying ‘It happened due to ignorance and carelessness.’ Further, GF Entertainment apologized in the official statement, ‘We bow our heads in apology to Muslims as well as everyone who felt inconvenienced.’

They informed the fans that they had discarded the album and were going for complete re-production. History Of Kingdom: Part VII. Jahan is set to release on October 18, as announced previously. As per the announcement, fans can pre-order the album on September 26 at 11 AM KST.
