1. [+219, -16] The composer is Teddy ㅋㅋ one of the top 3 plagiarizers along with Kim Do Hoon and Shinsadong Tiger ㅋㅋㅋ by the way, Sunmi's 'Heroine' stage on 'M! Countdown' yesterday was lip synced but it was practically a copy of 'Fight For This Love'. The song and outfit concept is 'Fight For This Love' (https://youtu.be/X0pF2MTfl9o) and her dance concept is from 'Parachute' (https://youtu.be/-AWoZmAxKxg). Practically a perfect mix of the leg spread and the arm grab when the male makes his appearance.

2. [+187, -13] There have been other songs of hers under suspicion of plagiarism but this one is pretty much similar from the melody, arrangement, to style. The backdancer in the chorus, the hat, the military style outfits... https://youtu.be/KAczeHlchqw It's rare for the melody and even the music video concept to be this similar, this is really too much ㅋㅋ

3. [+185, -10] It's not just the melody but the music video too. The military outfit with the red hat and the dance, it's not just similar, it's the same. https://youtu.be/KAczeHlchqw Even with the dance, the only difference is the number of backdancers, the rest is the same overall. She seems to have copied the entire concept.

4. [+29, -7] Why is she so bad at singing though ㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋ I was honestly surprised

5. [+28, -8] Teddy at it again.... tsk tsk

6. [+16, -5] I feel like I've heard 'Gashina' somewhere too...

7. [+8, -5] I doubt Teddy will bat an eye at this

8. [+7, -0] But with this case, it's not just the song. I understand that melodies can sometimes overlap but this has way too many similarities to just claim that Teddy never knew of the original song.

9. [+6, -0] I honestly like the song but it's such a blatant copy ㅜㅜ

10. [+4, -1] I saw a few articles up on Naver about this but they got deleted immediately;;

2. [+1,019, -186] This was totally plagiarized... 'Fight For This Love'

3. [+829, -173] I was honestly shocked with how bad her singing was on 'Happy Together'

4. [+788, -152] Say something, a clarification or anything

5. [+557, -113] Her song is really good but you have to admit that her chorus was totally copied...

6. [+400, -85] Sunmi lacks sooo much singing skills to become a real icon... and she's way too skinny to become a sexy star... she's a bit of a bubble waiting to burst

7. [+341, -72] Her singing is so bad, I thought she was tone deaf with the little I heard on 'Happy Together'

8. [+304, -69] Clarifying your plagiarism scandal is the first step here

9. [+257, -45] I don't even care about her plagiarism, she needs to improve her singing skills...

10. [+246, -52] Way too similar
