1. [+615, -68] A YG staff was arrested at the airport on the 22nd for drugs and none of the journalists are writing anything about it even though he gave 5 more celebrity names. Stupid fangirls are focusing on the issue of an article using the picture of a Hallyu star member. A, the person arrested, is a famous YG Entertainment international business promoter and has worked with Big Bang concerts and fashion brand launching parties. He was arrested on his way home at the Incheon airport and found marijuana in his home. A's Instagram also shows his friendships with G-Dragon, Seungri, Sandara Park, etc, and even went on vacation with GD and Mizuhara Kiko, obviously being close friends with him.

2. [+478, -73] Listen to the comparison for yourself... http://hgc.bestiz.net/zboard/view.php?id=ghm2&no=169529 The melody, beat, and rhythm are similar. Different cords? The problem is that they use the same instrument effector

3. [+459, -69] There are lots of foreign YouTube comments, more than Koreans, that think the song sounds similar to The Wanted's song. There's just barely a melody change but everything else is the same from the beat to even the sound effects. YG's production style always has the same method where they arrange it by throwing a midi in and out. Teddy's famous for it..

4. [+74, -7] It's so ridiculous to me because it's obvious the minute you listen to it that it's plagiarized so how can you say it's not...? Just because the cord is different? ㅋㅋㅋ

5. [+61, -8] Wasn't GD the one that was on jTBC a while ago saying he's different from SHINee because hr pdocues songs? Looks like he meant plagiarizes songs ㅋㅋ

6. [+61, -86] The cords are completely different, it's not plagiarized. SISTAR and Xia Junsu's songs are more similar.

7. [+58, -8] ㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋ Stupid fangirls reaching for excuses ㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋ

8. [+54, -7] Still ridiculous to me how GD was talking about music this and music that on jTBC news when he's been caught numerous times for plagiarism already. He thinks he's an artist? My ass ㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋ

9. [+54, -5] All that media play about him being an artist is coming back to bite him now...

10. [+46, -6] GD copied Oasis before too and stupid fangirls shielded him saying Oasis are complete nugus and so GD would never copy ㅋㅋㅋ

11. [+45, -7] Instead of fangirls whining that GD's always getting accused of plagiarism, just listen for yourselves unless you're proving as a group that you're deaf

12. [+31, -5] Never have I seen a supposed singer-songwriter get caught up in this many plagiarism controversies ㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋ
