Jisoo met with an unexpected misfortune, being told that Quang Hung music plagiarism, how real is it?

Just returning to the music "race", Jisoo continuously encountered unexpected troubles. Not only was she accused of plagiarizing Quang Hung MasterD's music, but she was also suspected of borrowing Jack's ideas.

On February 14, Jisoo ( BLACKPINK) officially released the EP Amortage and the MV with the theme earthquake. This is the first music project of the Kim beauty under the new company BLISSOO. Leaving YG, the eldest sister of BLACKPINK "let loose" in both concept and music.

As soon as it was released, Jisoo's new MV quickly became a hot topic in the Kpop fan community. In this product, the Kim beauty participated in composing, and the production was handled by an international team. Showing her breakthrough in music.

"Earthquake" is a moderately vibrant mix, helping to highlight Jisoo's unique husky voice. The beat is also catchy, the tempo is fast and interesting enough to match the Kpop-style choreography. Especially the "vibe" is quite close, the feeling is reminiscent of "Flower", the previous solo hit of the eldest member of BLACKPINK. Combined with the simple dance that is easy to learn and remember, "earthquake" is expected to go viral on social networks in the near future.

However, the newly released song has been suspected of plagiarism. Specifically, a TikTok channel compared Jisoo's "earthquake" with "First Love Over Drink" written by Quang Hung MasterD and performed by Anh Trai Say Hi.

Accordingly, the highlight beat of "earthquake" was pointed out to have a melody and rhythm quite similar to the chorus of "First Love Overdrinking". The hypothesis that Jisoo referenced Quang Hung's music was put forward, many Anh Trai Say Hi fans also agreed with this opinion.

Of course, BLACKPINK fans in general and the eldest sister's fans in particular do not agree with this point of view, saying that it is baseless. Because the two musical segments are only a few seconds long, to determine whether there are signs of plagiarism or not, it cannot be based solely on whether the melody has a "similar" rhythm or tempo.

Meanwhile, some still feel that the two songs are really similar and expressed the opinion that if "First Love Too Much" was released later, it is very likely that Quang Hung MasterD would be "attacked" by Kpop fans. While the controversy has not yet been resolved, a YouTube channel named HHST released a clip with the title "If Jisoo plagiarized Quang Hung's music, whose music did Quang Hung plagiarize?", causing confusion among the public.

The owner of the clip said that he did not intend to talk about Quang Hung MasterD because the male singer is friendly and enthusiastic about music and this person likes Quang Hung's perseverance and patience in composing music. "However, the truth is that in the song Tinh Dau Qua Chen, Quang Hung plagiarized the original music, 100% similar to a long part of the song Like Butterflies by Jasper Forks released in 2018.

And the music you think Jisoo plagiarized from Quang Hung MasterD, Quang Hung MasterD actually plagiarized 100% of the original music from the song Bright Moon Of The 15th Night by Park Ku Yoon, released in 2020", is the content of the clip.

And from this channel's perspective, Jisoo's music just coincidentally feels similar to the music in Quang Hung MasterD's "First Love Too Much" but not exactly the same. It's possible that the Kim beauty team referenced the song "Bright Moon Of The 15th Night" a bit too much.

In the comments section, most netizens disagree with the viewpoint of the YouTube channel HHST. "From an objective perspective, I think this channel is nonsense. If you are ignorant, don't bring data to talk about it. What is 100% plagiarism? Listening to the hit part of Tinh Dau Qua Chen, it is really similar, but the music and everything else are different. While one song is a trumpet, the other is a sacred song similar to Thai music," one person wrote. Perhaps, the truth will have to wait for insiders or experts to speak up.

The plagiarism scandal has not yet subsided when a photo related to Jisoo has spread at a dizzying speed and quickly caused controversy. Specifically, the photo is a composite of 2 moments: 1 is the scene of BLACKPINK's eldest sister driving a car through a tunnel in the MV, the other is the scene of Jack also sitting behind the wheel in the MV "Lonely Star".

Although it was only meant to be a joke and harmless on social media, BLINKs were not pleased. The photo was considered disrespectful to Jisoo and her fan community.
