BLACKPINK plagiarizes aespa: Fans give a series of undeniable proofs

As announced, on July 29, BLACKPINK also officially released the MV " Ready For Love" as a work that paved the way for a monumental comeback in August. As soon as it was released, "Ready For Love" quickly achieved many remarkable achievements on music charts and became the K-Pop girl group MV with the most likes since the beginning of 2022.

"Ready For Love" is a song with vibrant melodies and modern music. The line "Ready For Love" is repeated in the chorus according to the same formula as Blackpink's previous songs, but it is attractive and not boring at all.

Ready For Love made many viewers excited when it was just released. After many hours of release, this MV also achieved certain achievements.

However, along with impressive achievements, "Ready For Love" is equally controversial when it has many similarities with the concept of girl group aespa.

Recently, fans of 2 popular girl groups were rioted with a post titled "Is BLACKPINK plagiarizing aespa?".

In this thread, netizens have attached some images cut from BLACKPINK's recent Ready For Love MV, as well as various album concepts performed by aespa. When compared side by side, many elements appear to be duplicated.

There is no denying that some details in Ready For Love have many similarities with the previous aespa's concept.

Many netizens could not hide their surprise because of the similarity between BLACKPINK's MV and aespa's concept:

-It's basically the same concept as aespa

-No one's fans, but these pictures really look alike!

- Honestly, it's like 2 drops of water!

Meanwhile, there are some suggestions that it was the aespa who copied them first.

- I think this is a copy of BLACKPINK's aespa. BLACKPINK has always been like that.

- Can't say copy just because they have black hair or blonde hair, short hair. It's a normal hairstyle. But symbolically speaking, Lisa's short hair and Rose's blonde hair are much more famous and pre-existing.

Earlier, at the time the project Ready For Love was just announced, some viewers also questioned when the release of the song had a "virtual character" that reminded them of aespa. Because before that, this rookie group also had products with "virtual characters".

At that time many debates broke out, some thought that if going in this direction, would BLACKPINK be following aespa? Others are looking forward to this debut to see which group BLACKPINK and aespa will have a better virtual version.

However, most fans believe that the release of virtual character versions is not a new thing in Kpop, but depending on the strategy of each management company or brand, they will have a suitable direction. BLACKPINK has always been a group with its own color. Even before that, aespa was accused of being a copy of Blackpink, so it is impossible to confirm that the 4 YG girls are "following" juniors.

Ignoring the above controversies, currently Kpop fans are extremely anxious to welcome August with the resurgence of a series of groups after a period of silence. Specifically, many Korean groups have recently announced their comebacks. The most notable are the groups BLACKPINK, TWICE, and BTS.

Korean media called this the "fierce competition" of Kpop idols.
