I'm confused. I thought it was well acknowledged that K-pop songs are all rip offs. Strolling through the supermarket and being subject to K-pop (a place where it's hard to avoid) I can usually identify most melodies.
And Hyo-ri? I thought copying other people was her "style". She carbon copied JLo's uniform for awhile. Then Christina Aguilera’s Candyman video. And on and on...
How has this become a scandal?
@ GOP Feeling;
Thanks for the nod. Love your work, too.
@ JSK;

Two unprecedented events:
1. She admitted that the songs were plagiarized.
2. She removed the accused seven songs from her album.
Add to that the fact that, since most K-pop artists don't write their own songs, other artists have bought songs from the same songwriter as she did.
