On September 2nd, Seo Taiji and IU released their collaboration track, “Sogyeokdong,” bringing love and joy to the fans of both IU and Seo Taiji. Even now the song is sweeping through various Korean charts, topping in all of them.
Seo Taiji’s comeback is highly anticipated in Korea as it is his first return in five years.
But even in the midst of its high popularity, it was almost inevitable that the song would face plagiarism suspicions. Some netizens are suspecting that Seo Taiji plagiarized from Scottish duo Chvrches, and now the debate is heating up on the internet.
In many cases of Synth-Pop bands like Chvrches, synthesizers take a huge part in the genre itself, and this might have brought the suspicion of Seo Taiji’s plagiarism.
Seo Taiji’s company responded to the suspicion by asking the audience to listen Seo Taiji’s version of “Sogyeokdong,” due to its significant difference from that of IU’s.
What do you think on the situation?

He also said, "I wrote a lot of love songs all this time, but people didn't seem aware. Now I think it might be possible for us to do a love song blatantly." When asked, "Don't you feel burdened about writing a love story?" Jang Kiha replied, "I worry that the other person might get hurt more than me. I told her about it, but she actually said, 'A piece of work is merely a piece of work, so it doesn't matter to me.'"
