ADOR denies accusation of plagiarism against NewJeans

NewJeans was accused of plagiarizing music from the band Shakatak with the release of “Bubble Gum”, a single released on April 26th this year

After English record label WISE MUSIC GROUP accused NewJeans of plagiarizing Shakatak’s track “Easier Said Than Done” with the release of “Bubble Gum”, ADOR issued a statement denying that the South Korean group’s pre-release track is a copy.

It turns out that Wise Music Group had sent an official Letter of Claim in mid-June to conglomerate HYBE and subsidiary ADOR, as well as the Korea Music Copyright Association and Sony Music Publishing Hong Kong Limited (Korea), in order to collect the copyright for the track “Easier Said Than Done”, which had allegedly been used by NewJeans.

According to the Soompi portal, the company requested the cessation of use, the declaration of profits, the change of the rights holder, the provision of a written guarantee and compensation for damages for the alleged use of the Shakatak band’s track, demands that ADOR should analyze and provide a response to Wise Music Group within seven days.

With that, ADOR revealed that it responded to the company within the deadline, denying that ‘Bubble Gum’ had used the band’s song, in addition to requesting that a report be sent proving the accusations.

See the translation of the full statement:

  1. On June 17, Shakatak’s legal team provided evidence of their allegations, and ADOR’s legal team promptly responded on June 21.
  2. ADOR’s response stated: “‘Bubble Gum’ did not use Shakatak’s compositions without permission. We have requested a reliable analysis report on this matter.”
  3. On June 21, Shakatak indicated that he would provide the report soon, but it has not yet been received.
  4. The party raising the issue is required to submit a report proving the plagiarism, and Shakatak must respond accordingly.

It’s worth remembering that ‘Bubble Gum’ was released as a single and later incorporated into the album ‘How Sweet’, released in May of this year. As for ‘Easier Said Than Done’, the track belongs to the album ‘Drivin’ Hard’, released by Shakatak in 1981. Listen to both below:
