1. [+9,720, -479] People are just trying to start trouble right after they get on 'Infinity Challenge'

2. [+8,147, -416] People trying to bring them down now that they're famous

3. [+6,738, -406] Don't pick on them ㅠㅠㅠㅠㅠㅠㅠ

4. [+6,673, -392] Reminds me of what Park Jin Young said in the past. He said that all songs, especially band songs, work with limited chords so it can't help but end up sounding similar... in the end, it's all about turning the song into your own with your own vocalist and band's color. Hyukoh as a band is currently gaining lots of attention through 'Infinity Challenge' so I can't help but think some people are just trying to bring them down by bringing up this plagiarism controversy. Just compete fair and square.

5. [+3,505, -639] The curse of 'Infinity Challenge'...

6. [+512, -43] Well the show has history of Primary so it wouldn't hurt to wait and see what happens..

7. [+480, -24] Hyukoh mentioned in a previous interview that they like those artists so they were probably influenced by them

8. [+391, -25] They better resolve it fast before they end up like Primary

5. [+613, -43] Plagiarism is such a buzzword these days. People just can't stand the success of others.

6. [+68, -1] I'm liking the fast response

7. [+54, -6] You can't call every similarity a plagiarism otherwise people would have to create new chords every day. Just listen to good music for what it is.
