Controversy Surrounds Jung Hae-in’s Drama “Love Next Door” as Finale Approaches

On October 4, discussions on online forums like Theqoo sparked concerns regarding the original soundtrack (OST) for tvN’s drama “Love Next Door” , featuring Jung Hae-in, claiming it closely resembles Baek Yerin‘s song “0310” .

The specific track in question is “What Are We” by Ha Sung-woon, which is included in the OST for “Love Next Door” .

Many netizens have pointed out that this piece sounds strikingly similar to Baek Yerin’s “0310” , featured in her 2019 album “Every Letter I Sent You” .

A user on Theqoo who highlighted the issue said, “If you listen to it without the lyrics, it’s just Baek Yerin’s ‘0310′. It sounds even more identical in the instrumental version.”

Baek Yerin took to Instagram to express her dissatisfaction with the plagiarism claims, stating, “It must suck copying. Feel bad. If you want a song like mine, please ask me.”

She further shared netizen reactions, with many remarking that “What Are We” instantly reminded them of Baek Yerin’s song.

Comments from netizens include remarks like, “Why do I hear ‘0310′?” , “If you copy the guitar line from ‘0310′ almost exactly… This isn’t right,” and “Is it permissible to release a remake without the original artist’s consent?”

“Love Next Door” is expected to air its final episode this weekend.
