Hyuna's song under controversy for plagiarizing lyrics from god song


Article: Hyuna's new track under controversy for plagiarizing god lyrics, "Hommage as a meaning of respect" clarification

A line from her lyrics are the same minus one word. "Am I more attracted to you because we're opposites / because you and I are different / is that (that is) captivating me more / because you're something I'm seeing for the first time" The difference is so negligble that it's difficult to even translate it.

1. [+1,306, -41] It's mine if I don't get caught, it's an hommage if I do get caught ㅋㅋ What a joke

2. [+1,020, -36] If it's an hommage, shouldn't the original lyricsts know? They never mentioned it before or even got permission and now they're calling it an hommage? Do they not know what an hommage is? How is it an hommage if the original producers didn't even know? It's plagiarism if they didn't get permission for it ㅋㅋㅋ A tweet clarifying it won't just make it okay. ㅋㅋㅋ

3. [+907, -29] Should've said hommage to god when the album was released so misunderstandings don't happen.

4. [+104, -2] It wasn't until god fans mentioned it that they said it was an hommage on Twitter. An hommage is an expression of respect, how is that respectful at all? They never mentioned the original singers or what part they're taking as an hommage. Especially in a situation where it's being promoted as being written by Hyuna and Hyunshik-ssi.

5. [+96, -2] Plagiarize first, call it an hommage second. An hommage that even the original singers never heard of... If they were really fans and respected them, they wouldn't have done it in this way.
