IU's "The Red Shoes" and Trouble Maker's music video... Are they just works of plagiarism?
The music video for Trouble Maker's "Now," was initially the center of attention for its content - a bed scene between a couple, alcohol, cigarettes, firearms, etc. - and was therefore "Rated R." And now, the music video is suspected of being plagiarized.
That's because there are many similar scenes to American pop star Rihanna's music videos. Netizens have commented that the kiss scene inside the car, the hugging scenes on top of the car, and the car turning scenes are the same in both music videos. The agency has responded to these accusations by asking onlookers to see the video as a whole, and has not yet made any official statements.

And then there's IU's new song "The Red Shoes," which took the number 1 spot on the 3 main music programs. The song is very reminiscent of Nektar's "Here's Us." Regarding this matter, IU's agency sought the professional opinions of the songwriter Lee Min Soo and an outside music expert. They related that the two songs might sound similar in melody, but in reality the chord progressions in both songs are completely different.
Not only that, songwriter Kim Hyung Sik and Bang Shi Hyuk both wrote on their respective Twitters that swing jazz songs could sound very similar to each other, and that IU's song is definitely not copied.
