After a short hiatus due to health difficulties, The Boyz Eric returned to the K-pop idol on December 22 (his birthday) with the release of a new solo single, 4: 03 (Jet Lag) combined with DAVII. While many fans rejoiced when he returned home, many netizens noticed that the tune sounded eerily similar to BAP’s Coffee Shop.
With Eric starring as the lyricist and composer for the song, netizens believe it’s appropriate to hold idols accountable for mistakes. Dyan, the song’s producer, admitted to having mistakenly plagiarized the idea of BAP’s Coffee Shop, which was published in 2013.
Fans took to Twitter to ask The Boyz Eric to apologize for the plagiarism.
After the song was uploaded to SoundCloud, a lot of The B (The Boyz’s fandom nickname) rushed to listen to Eric’s birthday present. However, many listeners commented that the two tracks 4:03 (Jet Lag) and Coffee Shop sounded identical, especially in the beginning. Despite being a fan of The Boyz Eric, some Twitteratis think it is right to hold him accountable for such an error. On the other side, some supporters support him, arguing that the idol is not a producer. They went on to say that since Eric had just returned from vacation, an impending argument was not what he needed.
Despite that, the internet is already flooded with theories, evidence, and opinions about the incident, and netizens won’t let go of the plagiarism case without apologizing to BAP thoroughly.
Don’t tell me the company/company is not at fault here, someone like me who is not even in the industry can spot the song stolen from BAP, it’s literally in the comments section of that video is very “prod by dyan” 🙄🤡 https://t.co/TCOKEKeAca pic.twitter.com/B59uWSP8qr

it’s not that people hate him but they just don’t want him promoting something that plagiarizes like do you want your idol to sing something due to someone else’s hard work and vice versa if the songs tbz’s are plagiarized then all of you will raise your hands too so please respect each other n say sorry
