Returning to the Kpop race, girl group Fifty Fifty is causing a stir in public opinion when they publicly announced their innovations. However, this has left a lot of controversy, with people claiming that the group is intentionally imitating and plagiarizing the group BabyMonster.
"Starry Night" is the lead single from the group's second mini album. This will be an important musical product, as it marks the return of Fifty Fifty with a new 5-member lineup: Only Keena is a former member, along with 4 completely new faces - Chanelle, Yewon, Hana and Athena.

As soon as Attrakt announced this information, it received a backlash from fans of the old Fifty Fifty group and the 3 former members Aran, Saena and Sio. They said that Attrakt's announcement that Fifty Fifty would release a second mini album was disrespectful to the old members. Because Fifty Fifty has now almost completely "changed blood", with only Keena left.
On the other hand, the first hearing for the compensation lawsuit between the three former members of Fifty Fifty and the company Attrakt has been scheduled for August 29. Fans accused Attrakt of intentionally releasing a new song after only 1 day to take advantage of the promotional opportunity from the lawsuit.
In addition, some other opinions said that the new version of Fifty Fifty is learning and plagiarizing from many other famous groups and companies. They pointed out that the song name "Starry Night" is similar to the hit song of the group MAMAMOO. The design in the introduction video of "Starry Night" is commented to have many similarities with the theme design of the song "Stuck In The Middle" by Baby Monster - a group from YG Entertainment.
Fifty Fifty was accused by kpop fans of copying Baby Monster's design style.
Previously, BabyMonster was also involved in a scandal of plagiarism by another rookie group, BADVILLAIN. Accordingly, fans discovered that the two groups used the image of a black silhouette on a red background to reveal the number of members at the time of announcement. BADVILLAIN's logo was commented to have referenced the ideas of Baby Monster and G-Dragon (who were both artists of YG Entertainment).
The highlight was the group's official photo series released on May 26. BADVILLAIN wore denim outfits and took photos against a white background. This style is very similar to the Baby Monster photo series released after Ahyeon's comeback.
However, in addition to fans of the old members, many Korean audiences support the return of the new version of Fifty Fifty. Previously, the YouTube cover videos of the songs "We Don't Talk Anymore" (Charlie Puth) and "Secondary Option" (Leejean) by Fifty Fifty received a warm response. Keena and the new members were praised for their voices and vocal skills.
Some members of the new group lineup are also highly regarded for their looks. The first generation of Fifty Fifty including Keena, Aran, Saena and Sio debuted in November 2022. The group's single "Cupid" released in February 2023 set a series of impressive records, even breaking the record of the famous girl group Blackpink.
Fifty Fifty climbed to No. 17 and stayed on the Billboard Hot 100 for 25 consecutive weeks, becoming the first K-pop girl group to do so. In June 2023, the four members of Fifty Fifty unexpectedly filed a request to terminate their contract with the management company Attrakt, citing reasons such as the company not paying proper attention to their health and schedule; not being paid since their debut. However, the lawsuit was dismissed by the court due to insufficient evidence.
In October 2023, Attrakt announced the termination of their exclusive contracts with Sio, Aran, and Saena. The company then filed a lawsuit for 13 billion won in damages against the three members and their parents. Sio, Aran, and Saena face a major challenge as they are considered "traitors" by the majority of the Korean public.
