Not only Son Tung M-TP, many Vietnamese stars have been “named” before the suspicion of plagiarism

Son Tung M-TP

At the end of April 2022, Son Tung M-TP marked his return to music with the MV “There’s no one at all”. However, this MV was forced to stop releasing after less than a day of release because of controversial images such as violent scenes, especially the suicide scene at the end of the MV. This incident caused the male singer to face many criticisms of the public, especially parents.

Besides releasing the MV containing many negative actions, Son Tung M-TP was also criticized for his posts accusing the male singer of plagiarizing the MV of Big Bang. Specifically, Son Tung M-TP’s shoulder-length curly hair in the MV “There’s no one at all” resembles the hair of Daesung (Big Bang group). The image of Son Tung squirming on the street, brushing off a couple’s hand and questioning himself, punching a mirror is quite similar to the image of G-Dragon (Big Bang group) in the two MVs “Crooked”, “Haru Haru”. …

Before the criticism from the public and the decision to stop releasing the MV “There’s no one at all” from the Department of Performing Arts, Son Tung MTP apologized. Thai Binh’s original vocalist expressed, “After the release, I also received a lot of mixed reviews. By the way, I would like to sincerely apologize to everyone who had feelings. uncomfortable after watching this music video This is really not what i wanted.

I have always understood my position and influence on young people. I always want to bring the best values ​​to the society as well as to my homeland Vietnam. Therefore, the company and I, with the spirit of market and listening, will actively stop releasing the MV “There’s no one at all”. However, Son Tung M-TP’s apology has not yet satisfied the audience.

Amee

In early 2020, Amee released the MV “Why haven’t you come home” with a fairy scene. This product achieved high results on music charts after only 24 hours of release. Unfortunately, the context element has mixed opinions because it has many similarities with Taylor Swift’s “Blank Space” MV such as: bursting into tears to the point of bleeding mascara, destroying wall paintings with a knife, cutting lover’s clothes…

Before this incident, Amee’s management company responded as follows: “When discussing the script, to the question ‘How crazy do girls often act when jealous? , smashing mementos… The crew members all mentioned Taylor Swift without appointment because we’re all her fans. God, country music princess So how can the princess universe be without her sister?So in the part where the princess was mad because the prince was gone forever, we simulated Taylor’s actions. Swift in a gentle way, more suitable for AMEE as a tribute to a real-life princess.

If this makes the Swifties unhappy, we sincerely apologize and will learn from it. But surely we come from goodwill to cherish idols. Thank you for the musical and creative inspiration Taylor Swift has given us.”

K-ICM

In the middle of 2020, K-ICM collaborated with Xesi to release the MV “Tay Painting”. The product marks the union of two young artists who have created strong effects. After a day of release, K-ICM’s new product was “unmasked” for plagiarizing costumes and using other people’s paintings without permission.

Accordingly, the costume K-ICM wears in the MV “Tay Hoa” is said to be borrowed from the image of the character Hoa Thanh in the novel “Thien Quang Four Phuc” by Mo Huong Dong Khuu. Painter Ivy Nguyen Tran (real name Tran Thao Nguyen) posted a forum to accuse the male producer of using his paintings without permission. The female artist also posted the original drawing and screenshot of the MV “Stupid painting” for the audience to easily compare.

Not long after, K-ICM said that he was in charge of producing, composing, filming the MV and releasing the product. Regarding the use of paintings by artist Ivy Nguyen Tran without permission, the professional department of the management company K-ICM sought to discuss solutions with the artist.

In the middle of 2019, Quang Ha released the MV “Everybody will be different”, opening a series of music projects in the second half of the year of the male singer. After a few hours of release, the MV “Everybody will be different” was suspected of plagiarizing “Day by day” by Korean group T-ara. Suspicion of plagiarism caused Quang Ha to receive many “bricks and stones” from the audience. Even, the number of dislikes (dislikes) of the MV is twice as many as the likes (likes).

Faced with the above situation, Quang Ha gave an explanation. The voice “Thought” affirmed that he rarely listens to Kpop music. Therefore, he does not know if his new product is similar or different from any Korean song.

Singer Quang Ha shared: “I myself rarely listen to Korean music, so I don’t know. Besides, before the MV release, I sang this song live dozens of times and had no opinion. I thought that the melody of this song was similar to T-ara’s “Day by day”. As soon as it was reported that the song “Everybody will be different” was plagiarized, I called musician Phuc Truong. right after that, but Phuc Truong also thought it was a coincidence, but didn’t know it.”

Phung Khanh Linh

The MV “Merciful Girl” by Phung Khanh Linh was released in December 2020, making a strong impression on the media and the public with its ability to “incalculably transform”. Although this is only a dance version, Phung Khanh Linh and the production crew have successfully recreated the image of Britney Spears and Taylor Swift in combination with their own new version.

After the music video for “Charity Girl” by Phung Khanh Linh was released, many people commented that the music drop made listeners feel like “Rose flowers” by Chi Pu. Exchange with Vietnamese peoplePhung Khanh Linh affirmed: “I don’t think it’s the same. I personally think “The compassionate girl” is not the same as Chi Pu’s “Rose”.

Honestly, when I released the trailer, there were a lot of comments about this. On this occasion, I want to vindicate myself. I think because both songs are mixed in Disco style, there are quite a lot of similar sounds. For example, the cello is used in Lady Gaga’s “Stupid Love” quite a lot, or the pounding bass is also typical of this genre.
