K-pop fans are in disbelief as Indian singer Ipsitaa is being called out for allegedly copying scenes from multiple K-pop music videos in her latest release, “Kadar Na Jaane.“ The music video has stirred up reactions, with many netizens finding it more amusing than offensive.
The MV reportedly showcases scenes resembling iconic visuals from popular K-pop acts like IVE, BLACKPINK, aespa, BTS, and more. The opening scene closely mirrors Wonyoungโs dramatic airplane fall from IVEโs hit song, “I AM.” Other scenes appear to borrow aesthetics from aespaโs KWANGYA world, BLACKPINK‘s “Whistle,” and even references from IZ*ONEโs videos.
Despite the allegations, rather than leaving harsh criticism, many K-netizens have found humor in what they describe as “blatant plagiarism.” Comments range from surprise to laughter, with some even likening the video to a parody or a quick K-pop-themed creation.
Reactions from K-Netizens include:
- “What is this now?”
- “This is so ridiculous that itโs funny.”
- “Iโm not even mad.”
- “Wait, lol, this feels more like a parody.”
- “It starts with ‘I Am,’ hahaha.”
- “Dancing on wings, the outfit is similar too, haha. Itโs so identical that it doesnโt even feel like plagiarism, itโs just funny.”
