Isn't this the same hanteo statement? This is not about lesserafim. This is about ktown4u vs hanteo. Ktown4u claims hanteo asked for personal information from their customers and they refuse to give it because it would violate data protection policies. Hanteo claims they need this data for sales verification, so they won't count ktown4u sales. This affects all sales from ktown4u, not any specific group.

“We did not use Shakatak’s composition without permission and requested an authoritative analysis report. Although Shakatak promised to provide a report, we have yet to receive it. The claimant must send a report proving plagiarism, and Shakatak needs to respond to this.”
Seems that Ador claimed it is indeed shakatak song but they refute it was used without permission. Not sure with this translation, but from other translation Ador request credible analysis report. So, Shakatak haven't provided report that support that it can be categorized as plagiarism. Maybe they claimed only based on that selulite guy (the disgusting army as well as human being) .
And yeah, of course it's the same chorus, no doubt. Shakatak need to check where they sold their sample, cause this song also sampled by Japanese boygroup without credited them. And apparently several other songs also sample easier than done. It's old song anyway.
As I understand it, Adorn has not admitted the songs are the same. What Adorn is saying is that if Shakatak thinks the songs are the same, then to prove it by sending a musical analysis of the parts they claim copyright over, my guess is so that they can refute their claims with their own arguments.
You can't sample or interpolate a song legally without a license from the copyright owners, Shakatak would have checked with their publishing company before suing to be able to claim they used the song without permission.

If you look at this ranking in that way, it might seem pointless but the fact that 2NE1 and SNSD are as high as they are without some of their major hits like Gee, Genie, Fire, I Don't Care, etc. being counted is hella impressive. Wonder Girls would definitely be somewhere in the top 15 and BIGBANG would be much closer to BTS, possibly even passing them. Their 2007-08 run was legendary.
Well 2ne1 debuted 2009 so it makes much more sense for them to be there because gaon exist since 2010 right? I agree that Bigbang is certainly impressive, but without giving that context, its a kind of confusing ranking, since even among 2nd gen you'll have groups like Miss A who could appear to be more dominant than say Wonder Girls. Even MBLAQ is above super junior
-
Its kinda pointless to do this for 2nd gen though, since basically half of their discography is not counted, if Gaon existed earlier, I'm sure the ranking willl be very different not only for SNSD but for groups like Wonder Girls, TVXQ, Super Junior, Shinee and even BigBang

Well it was released after Party and along side Lion Heart so it did get a bit overshadowed but a lot of Sone actually loved this song, I remember there was a lot of talk about Seohyun's dance part and Sunny's vocal part too
I loved this song and the combination with Lion Heart was cool because it showed different sides of SNSD. The whole Lion Heart album was really good too
-
This is how I understand it too, beacuse she also mentions that every city is her city, so she's like I can speak a lot of languages because I'm cosmopolitan, so people are like: can you teach me japanese then? and she's like yeah

Its seem complicated because to copyright something its needs to be original enough, I can see them copyrighting entire choreos but single dance moves doesn't seem possible
I imagine they may model it after U.S. law:
Michael Chiappetta, attorney and senior editor in the Intellectual Property & Technology Group at Thomson Reuters Practical Law, explains that you can copyright a dance as long as it's "an original work consisting of the composition and arrangement of a related series of dance movements and patterns organized into a coherent whole."
The United States Copyright Office defines a “fixation” in choreography or pantomime as something that allows movement to be performed in a “consistent and uniform manner.” Choreographers can fix their work through dance notation, video recording or textual descriptions or photographs. But to solely teach the choreography isn’t enough. It needs to be on paper or video, or documented somehow so it can be shared.
It seems simple, but there are exceptions. Common movements or activities, like yoga positions, line dances and exercise routines, are not copyrightable, even when they are unique. This even applies to the positions of ballet, like a tendu or an attitude.
Think of Balanchine’s work, for instance. While deep pliés and a specific articulation of the hands may be a recognizable hallmark of his style, the movements themselves are uncopyrightable. However, those elements did serve as building blocks for Balanchine’s ballets, which were fixed and copyrighted. Today, The George Balanchine Trust owns his ballets and licenses them for use.
Yeah, this makes sense but by these standards there wouldn't be be any copyright infrigment into the NJ/Illit case because from what I've seen its single moves that have been"copied" and I don't think they could be considered "original enough"
-
I don’t think NJ is disbanding but I do think the only way out of this scandal is for MHJ to resign. She might have a point about NJ/ILLIT but there is no way to reconcile relationships between Adorn and Hybe without her leaving. Hybe has a pretty strong case against her it seems, no matter how loyal Adorn board of directors are, if they want to save the company, they will get rid of her and keep NJ with a new producer.
