Ador/Hybe needs to sue the fk out SM, this level of shamelessness is insane

Well... when I saw the thumbnail of the music video, I was getting NewJeans vibes. (I haven't watched the MV yet)

Their whole concept always gave me gender bend NJ vibes

Ditto is one of the impactful Kpop song & concept of all time.

Lots of companies going to be inspired to have their own take.

I can't wait to see Ador bg take on current kpop scene since 5th gen bgs seems to be a bit of NJ inspired, which is working among public though.

It could be. I don't see anything wrong with that. After all, the nostalgic concept does not belong to just Newjeans. Every company takes inspiration from each other in this way.

At least SM is putting that BCG report to good use

And people wonder why everyone lately "hates" on NewJeans and tokkis

Quickly becoming the most annoying fandom ever

That and Seunghan causing a trainee to be kicked

We need to start a war against SM

As if other fandoms don’t look for resemblances. You’re probably extra annoyed because it’s newjeans

That is very

Add on that this is the teaser image lol

It's known that big companies often do get "inspired" by young whipper snappers from small agencies, and due to their nugudom, get away with straight lifting creative ideas from them, but did SM really just cross their fingers and hope no one notices on this one, lol.

It's a shame. Riize are good performers and the music SM has gotten them is not bad. Doing this just distracts from that and just serves as a crutch that may not even be necessary. It just gives lack of confidence in their own creative ability, really.

They say imitation is the sincerest form of flattery. Were I MHJ, I'm not sure whether to be appalled or flattered. Regardless, you can copy what she has produced, but you'll always be one step behind if you lack the ability to create in the first place.

Everyone recognises SM as shameless thiefs

Well NewJeans has the most fans so that poll was mostly Tokkis

Nothing wrong with that. Agencies are always inspired by what is trending...

Curiously, SM used to be the trendsetter agency and rabbit stans were on multiple group's business for that. Seeing SM now on the other side is hilarious and satisfying.

Haha, the Tv example, hahah. Man, You have to love Kpop fans stupidity. This shit is hilarious

Even if it's true, what's the issue here? Let SM copy NJ, if it works for them who cares ?

Voters list is publically available, no need to use your brain

I didn't waste my time to go check :3

also my reply was a joke you should try to relax a bit and deep breaths

Quote from thebadguy

Let SM be dragged for being copy pasta morons, who cares?

I can't relax, i need that riize group disbanded asap

But why!?

same aesthetic and vibe for sure and it does look similar when you screenshot bits of the mv then put it side by side but if you watch the mv, its not even similar at all.

Honestly I don't even bother trying to give SM the benefit of the doubt anymore, they 100% did it.

They have had way too many instances over the years, from teasers, posters, fonts costumes to MV's and music. No other company has had to appologise, hire the artist, or give later credits more than SM. Even last year for the long awaited GG CB they plagiarised Tokyo DisneySea.

but wasn't this started with SM though? MHJ worked with SM I don't think the nostalgia thing belongs to them if anything it gives me SM early vibes

Okay the pics do look similar but COPYING THE NAME?????????????????

I was just about to pose this question.

Like, these side by side shots are really damning, but was the whole video a direct copy? Or did the person just take similar screenshots and put them side by side. If the latter, then you could probably find a lot of "copied" videos.

That being said, the Ban Heesoo and Boo Heejoo thing is kinda....lmao? That makes me think they were basically trying to rip off NJs.

Waiting for Boo Heejoo's youtube channel.

Companies will just copy the current standard which is New Jeans.

Hybe owns SM. They got some shares along side with Kakao. So they want RIIZE to do well, too.

Good promotion for NJ.

The originals tend to be better than the copy.

I don't know if this thread is a joke or not.
