original post: here
1. Meanwhile NewJeans' fans were swearing at the original creator for the plagiarism issue. Meanwhile they go around claiming that wearing Hanboks is plagiarism
2. I hate that she gets marketed all the time as "her sister"
3. I pity him...
4. I went to look for the song after reading the post and the song was good
5. But they've never claimed that the song wasn't plagiarized
6. To be exact, the original creator got angry and posted about it, and then fans rushed in, swearing and making things worse, which is why the issue escalated unnecessarily. Honestly, it was a problem that could have been solved already, but instead, people started throwing around conspiracy theories, insulting and mocking the original creator, which caused things to blow up
7. So her first debut was plagiarized?
8. The reactions here sure are different ã…‹ã…‹...
9. The beginning is the same as Onion Boy...
10. You can't deny it though
