According to an exclusive media outlet report on May 10 KST, an anonymous individual 'A' has filed charges against singer IU for plagiarism. Earlier this week on May 8, Seoul's Gangnam Police Station received a charge report filed against IU, who is facing accusations of plagiarizing 6 songs - "Good Day", "The Red Shoes", "Pitiful", "Boo", "BBIBBI", and "Celebrity". The charge report claimed, "All 6 of these songs closely resemble the original songs in melody, rhythm, and code progression, and in the case of songs like 'The Red Shoes', the resemblance is clearly noticeable even in the ears of the general public. Especially, all 6 songs are suspected of plagiarizing the intro." It's true that back in 2013, when IU first released "The Red Shoes", she became embroiled in plagiarism accusations for the song's close resemblance to "Here's Us" by the German band Nekta. The accuser 'A' further claimed that "The accused (IU) refused to respond to her plagiarism accusations despite their numerous occurrences, instead reporting and erasing all such accusations on SNS for copyright violations. Therefore, the accuser has decided to file a report after witnessing a lack of public awareness regarding the numerous accounts of plagiarism which have been taken down irrationally on SNS for copyright reasons, and additionally as an issue of a failure of legal authorities to fulfill their duties responsibly in determining the amount of damages that those faced with copyright violation accusations must pay." While normally, plagiarism charges must be filed by those who believe themselves to be the victims of creative plagiarism, in the case of 'A', they intend on claiming that third parties can also file charges based on suspicions of "habitual acts of plagiarism for profit".

I'm looking at a fake scandal again... crazy 3.It's not even because they are similar to the original songs, it's because they speed up the music, adjust the pitch, and make it sound as similar as possible, and then call it plagiarism;; 4. This person should just work hard living their own life. Imagine how jealous theey must beㅋㅋ 5. This is a legandary troll. Leave IU alone ㅠㅠ 6. IU's trolls are just of another level. Use that hate energy on your own life or something 7. IU is a strong and good person so I think that she'll manage this well. The people around her will protect her too ㅇㅇ 8. This person is a commoner? 9. Charging someone is different from accusing someone. Charges come from the people involved while accusations come from 3rd parties 10. Those aren't even songs that IU composed anywaysㅋㅋㅋㅋ Cr.

was bound to happen.

I love it..

Not stanning, but i really like Fifty Fifty releases, their music is totally my cup of tea. Same with XG, i wasn't really into them at first, but when they dropped Left and Right....giiirlllllll that song is a BOP and i'm so addicted to it!

Even though I'm not a fan of Aespa's recent releases, I like their concept this time best, I'm glad they are free from this meta universe-AI-sh*t it was so cringe and getting over-recycled in terms of sound and visuals..and let me add cheap looking MVs..I hope they stick to this fun, and kind of rebellious girly concepts, because it looks like this is what they genuinely enjoy, and more like them.

Agree on the survival shows, Harry Potter and Marvel movies, tiktok, The Kardashians and Selena Gomez’s dramas and make up.

Not their worst title track but not their best..it’s honestly too repetitive for me..

Good for them!

"The current state of KPOP is all about the "New-I-Le" generation... NewJeans-Ive-Le Sserafim syndrome" The article confirmed that it was all about New-I-Le "NewJeans, Ive, Le Sserafim" Q: What songs are you listening to? "NewJeans' songs... Le Sserafim. And IVE" Only Pann considers aespa to be part of the big 3 ㅋㅋ Currently, NewJEans and IVe's new songs all hit #1 on Melon, meanwhile aespa's song is getting kicked out from the top 100 ㅋㅋ post response: [+242][-417] original post: here 1. [+192, -39] aespa: won both daesang, rookie award at the same time/first 4th gen group to perform at Tokyo Dome/the group who had a mega hit with Next Level. Le Sserafim: ... 2. [+178, -24] But Le Sserafim is an alleged A-list even though they've never had a single #1ㄷㄷ 3. [+152, -16] ㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋEven StayC received a bonsang, but Le Sserafim never did so how are they A-list? ;; Ive and aespa were the only groups that received a daesang and their careers are solid. NewJeans are doing well too so what does Le Sserafim have? Aren't they in loser-C tier? I'd acknowledge they're A-list in that category ㅠㅠㅋㅋㅋㅋ 4. [+120, -16] It's my first time hearing about New-I-Le ㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋ This is only the journalist's own POV.. Nobody has ever used New-I-Le ㅋㅋㅋ 5. [+109, -12] No but why is Le Sserafim considered an A-list singer when they've never achieved #1 on the charts? Le Sserafim fans, go stream their song instead. It's my first time seeing such a lazy fandom Cr.

Aw congratulations !!! the forum looks so cute today! i would like to request for SailOHr Moon ~! thank you!

F(x) will be the most shocking for me..it is like impossible to happen..and then Miss A or 4minute..

Stray Kids Achieved #1 twice on Billboard Chart 200 They have surpassed 12.5M subscribers on Youtube They're 6th in terms of boy group physical sales TXT Achieved #1 once on Billboard chart 200 They have surpassed 10.6M subscribers on Youtube They're 5th in terms of boy group physical sales ENHYPEN Achieved #6 on Billboard chart 200 The boy group to enter Billboard 200 in the shortest amount of time within the top 10 The boy group to sell 1M in first week sales in the shortest amount of time since debut original post: here 1. I was wondering who the post will be about so I clicked in it, but I don't know any of them ㅜㅜ I hope they'll gain more recognition in Korea too.. Fighting!! 2. Is Seventeen considered 3rd gen? 3. Stray Kids is coming back soon! Fighting~ please give a lot of interest 4. I barely know any boy groups now, I can see why they've lost all the public's recognition 5. Oh..Ok 6. Is NCT considered 3rd gen? 7. If only they had one hit and got the public's recognition, their popularity domestically would've been drastically different, looks like it's damn hard for boy groups 8. I can't understand the comments going "Huh? I don't know them??" what are you guys trying to do? ㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋ So you'll only acnkowledge them if you knew them... 9. All 3 groups combined, there's not a single song of them that I've heard of 10. I really wonder if ENHYPEN will be finally able to enter our chart with this comeback.. CR.

As news of EXO member Kai's sudden military enlistment next week has prompted many fans to question the logistics of South Korea's military service laws, a representative of the Military Manpower Administration spoke with Star News to shed partial light on the issue. The rep commented on May 4 KST, "Typically, those who receive a military service summon letter can request to postpone the date of their enlistment a total of 5 times within a period of 2-years after receiving the summon." The rep continued, "There are many reasons which are acceptable for a postponement request, including 'miscellaneous', but this reason can only be use twice as a part of the 5 total requests permitted." Thus, the rep indicated that Kai has already used up all 5 postponement requests, and therefore has no choice but to enlist on the date indicated by his summon letter, if he plans on abiding by the law. However, it is currently unclear whether or not the representative's explanation is what SM Entertainment may have been referring to when it said, "due to recent changes in military service laws". Earlier on May 3, SM Entertainment announced that Kai had received his summon letter to enlist as a public service worker on May 11. CR: Allkpop roginal post: here 1. His company is the one who couldn't manage this properly. It's not like the members were enlisting in a day or two and they know fully well that he couldn't postpone his enlistment anymore. The way they handled this is comedy 2. No matter what, the company is the one planning everything for their idols whether it's enlistment or any other scheudle. The fact that they couldn't plan his promotion is the company's fault no?ㅜ so many male idols from SM have enlisted already.. how can they still not plan things properly... 3. This is just a regrettable event. It's not like he wasn't gonna enlist 4. But army issues should be an affair managed by the company 5. This is all SM's fault 6. ㅇㅇ There are cases where people suddenly get notified when they can't postpone their enlistment anymore... I know someone who got notified 2 weeks in advance 7. This is sad 8. This is hurting the remaining members as well... they pushed the other members' solos just so they could have a group comeback first 9. The fans and artists must be so upset. The full group promotion was so important 10. The fans must be furious CR.

their weakest tt, it sounds like a recycled Antifragile song and concept, and i hope they stop with the recycling right here, otherwise they will not be able to compete with the other 4th gen ggs.

Aww Kai we will miss you..

"Where was the most unfriendly country you've been to?" Not the friendliest country, And also not the country that is unfriendly only to you But I'm talking about a country that is unfriendly to everyone in general A country where you really felt uncomfortable in It can't be based on prejudice, econmic factor, you can't name several countries. To me it's Spain original post: here 1. France... They bullied all the male middle school students 2. France, I want to take revenge on them 3. HongKong, especially the restaurants employees, their resting face are all furious faces. That's how I remembered 4. Switzerland 5. Greece 6. France was the worst 7. Korea 8. Japan 9. Australia 10. France... Cr.
