NewJeans, the popular girl group, revealed their latest album and official music video for the lead single “How Sweet”on May 24.

Specifically, the mentioned video referenced Midnight Fusic’s “Summer Love”and Karencitta’s “F.U.I.L.Y.”, as well as a clip from NewJeans’ “How Sweet”, insinuating that the songs share striking similarities.

Despite the video appearing abruptly, netizens continue to harbor doubts and have gone so far as to accuse HYBE of intentionally trying to ruin NewJeans’ comeback.

Here are a few remarks from internet users:

Wow, after just mere hours, something like this appears. I just know HYBE is behind this
Within hours of NewJeans’ comeback, an account with no videos made a plagiarism accusation. This is definitely cause for suspicion.
The two songs in the video also sound similar, so they are basically saying that these two songs copy each other as well right?
Are you comedians, HYBE? Did you really think you could pull something like this and fool the public?
Do they (HYBE) really think this will work…
