On June 10, Belift Lab, the agency for ILLIT, released a video accusing NewJeans of plagiarism. The video also mentioned various other groups, including GFRIEND, IZ*ONE, Sunmi, VIVIZ, IVE, NMIXX, Oh My Girl, LE SSERAFIM, BLACKPINK, ENHYPEN, Triple S, LABOUM, BTS, DIA, the Mexican group Jeans, and Pristin.
The video highlights Belift Lab’s detailed description of NewJeans, IVE, and BLACKPINK, which immediately captures viewers’ attention.
Specifically, the article characterizes BLACKPINK as “untouchable celebrities”and IVE as a group whose members are “resembling dolls and admired like princesses”.
Despite being teenagers, NewJeans have been described as “the objects of romance in the imagination of adults,”which has sparked immediate controversy.
Belift just sexualized NewJeans to describe their concept to protect ILLIT in their claims against plagiarism even though the court found grounds to each allegation…”Even as teenagers, they’re the object of adult fantasy romance” ? ?? pic.twitter.com/v67ZU05VkY
