On May 12, the agency of Korean female singer IU (李智恩) responded to the report of plagiarism of its songs, stating that it will take tough measures to deal with false rumors.
EDAM Entertainment said, "Through months of monitoring and commissioned investigations, our company has responded to forces that continue to accuse its artists of plagiarism, groundless espionage rumors, and sexual slander. The fact that plagiarism was suspected and reported was absurd and even shocking. After the report on the violation of the copyright law on the suspicion of plagiarism on the 10th of this month, we appointed a legal person specialized in copyright and confirmed the content of the report. Based on the results confirmed through investigation agencies and media reports so far, the whistleblower did not target the composer as the target of the plagiarism suspicion, but only targeted IU. It can be seen that when some composers clearly stated that it was not plagiarism, a third party who had nothing to do with the copyright forcibly reported the singer Li Zhien just to slander the image of the artist. For these obviously wrong allegations, I believe that the investigation agency will make a quick and wise judgment, and according to the results, the accusers who made the blind accusations will be held accountable accordingly. Our company has been in close communication with the composers since the early stage of the incident, and we will vigorously respond to reports without evidence. "
Previously, IU was reported to the police for plagiarism, and the composers who composed music for her denied the plagiarism one after another.
Previously, the song sung by Korean singer IU (Li Zhien) was reported by an anonymous person A, claiming that there was plagiarism, and reported to the relevant department in Seoul, South Korea on the grounds of alleged violation of copyright law. It is reported that the songs reported by A this time include "Pink High Heels", "Good Day", "BBIBBI", "Poor", "Boo", and "Celebrity", a total of 6 songs are suspected of plagiarism.
