Citrus and caramel doesn’t mix well anyway.
After sexy diva Lee Hyori, it’s now Orange Caramel‘s turn to be accused of plagiarism. The overly sweet trio made of After School‘s Nana, Raina and Lizzy comes under fire for the uncanny resemblance between their first single “Magic Girl” and a Japanese pop song, “Hare no Platinum Dori”, by Saki Nakajima & Mai Hagiwara. And while netizens were at it, they also played “spot the difference” between the MV for “Magic Girl” and the French CM for “Miss Dior Cherie”, claiming that not only the scene where Nana is lifted in the air by the balloons she’s holding came from the TV ad but the whole concept, cakes and candies are plagiarized. Oh My Gosh, pastel colors and candies/cupcakes/sweets/lollipops/whatever sugary treats you may fancy are so unusual in a Kpop MV that they must have taken them from elsewhere ! Quick, someone report Super Junior to the police, I swear that the lollipops they have in “Happiness” are the same as some kids’ I saw down the street, they must have stolen plagiarized them !More seriously, although “Magic Girl” and the Jpop song sound really similar, the Dior ad thing is quite far-fetched.
Now dear PopSeoulers, make your own mind about the whole issue :
“Magic Girl” MV
“Hare no Platinum Dori”
“Miss Dior Cherie” CM
