The movie 'Miss Granny,' which is currently a popular movie in Korean theaters at the moment, is under fire for having an OST called "Once More" that people are alleging to be a plagiarization of Peppertone's 2005 title track "Ready, Get Set, Go!


It was revealed that the two songs were alike in the chord progression from the introduction to the singing parts--as a matter of fact, even the smallest details were claimed to be strikingly similar.


CJ Entertainment, in charge of distributing 'Miss Granny,' told TV Report, "We have sent a request to an internal expert to confirm this."


On the other hand, Peppertones' agency Antenna Music told TV Report, "We are aware of the similarities between the two songs.  7-80% of the chords are alike.  We have not been contacted by the other party.  We will be taking firm actions.  If necessary, we will deal with this through the law."

"Once More" is a song that actress Shim Eun Kyung sings in the movie.  It was written by B1A4's Jinyoung, Lee Eun Joo, and Hwang Dong Hyuk; composed by Han Seung Woo and Mowg; and arranged by Han Seung Woo and Kim Soo Young.


Check out the comparison video below.  Do you think the song was plagiarized?
