On June 13th, dance crew 'Poreotics' (the season five champions of "America's Best Dance Crew") uploaded a video onto their official Facebook page of a Korean dance crew named 'Monster MG', who allegedly stole their routine for tvN's "Korea's Got Talent".
Poreotics wrote, "WE MADE IT TO KOREA :) We're actually pretty flattered LOL. Big ups to DiamondUpDown for putting this together for us."
The comparison video pits the two routines side-by-side, and viewers immediately noticed that MonsterMG plagiarized Poreotics' choreography.
"Korea's Got Talent" Twitter responded to the claims by writing, "We have taken action ^^ The producers are very upset with the situation right now. They've already made it to the semi-finals so we will discuss the policies with the producers and tvN before we make any further announcements."
Check out the video below:

They wrote again on Facebook, "In regards to the Korea's Got Talent Vid: Thanks to everyone for sending the links to us and and letting us know what's going on. We appreciate your support! However, we know that dancing always stems from somewhere or someone and things like this happen all the time. We are extremely flattered that we are being recognized all the way in Korea :)) Possible next stop?"
