Actually the release date has not changed in Korea - it's still March 29, 2012. There has been some dispute because of one of the actors playing Der Tod, Kim Junsu, was reportedly not included in any of the songs in this recording. Kim is also a famous K-pop singer, who was believed to be casted to increase the popularity of the musical, but nonetheless the musical has sold out even days where Kim was not playing Der Tod. Apparently due to some contract/agency issues, EMK Musical Company was unable to include songs by Kim in the recording when they first released the track list of the OST on the 17th of this month. His fans were outraged and threatened to boycott this recording. EMK responded and they revealed that they were still in negotiation with Kim's agency and that the official track list will be released on the 20th of the this month, but the OST is still scheduled to release on March 29.
