[theqoo] WHISTLEBLOWER SHOWS EVIDENCE THAT THE COURT ACKNOWLEDGED ILLIT’S AGENCY BELIFT LAB’S COPYING NEWJEANS

““The plaintiff keeps changing their claims. They said that ILLIT’s final concept was confirmed on July 21, 2023, but the so-called ‘July proposal’ has still never been submitted as evidence. We cannot even verify whether it actually exists.”

1. A request was made to make ILLIT’s billboard advertisement similar to NewJeans’ billboard ad images (both were for debut promotions).

2. A whistleblower recording in which an employee who had shared NewJeans’ project proposal with Belift Lab stated that they “didn’t expect it to be made exactly like this (ILLIT’s proposal).”

3. Reference videos were shown, and choreography would not be selected unless similar movements appeared.

The court acknowledged that the planning proposal was indeed reviewed, and therefore it cannot be ruled out that NewJeans’ proposal was reflected. It was stated that NewJeans’ concept appears to have been similarly reflected in ILLIT, and that failing to seek prior consent or consultation was also problematic.

1. Imagine how much of a mess their internal affairs are that whistleblowers are coming out ㅋㅋㅋㅋ

2. The way they buried this down gives me goosebumps seriously 

3. If you have eyes, anyone can tell it was plagiarism 

4. No but they should’ve done it moderately, but instead, they’re trying to block your eyes and pretend nothing happened

5. Meanwhile their choreographer was bullsh*ting on IG saying NewJeans plagiarized ㅋㅋ

6. ㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋ They’re so embarrassing

7. Huh? So every single person has acknowledged it no?

8. Of course there will be talks if the same group is always getting allegations 

9. The Pit Stop prop was too evil 

10. They’re disgusting seriously;;;;;;;;
