The group was on an MTV show, and they sang a version of "Let It Go," rearranged by B.I. and originally performed for Mnet's survival program 'Mix & Match.' 


Though the group's performance of this version aired about a month ago, netizens took notice more recently. Under the video clip of the performance, they wrote: 


"Hanbin work hard remake this song! Why don't give credit to Hanbin? [sic]


"A complete plagiarism of the Mix&match version, completely shameless?." 


"B.I work so so hard for this song!!! give credit to him !!?" 

"What the hell? this was just a copy and paste. Woah I'm angry rn. Think about how hard Hanbin worked to produce the song and this trio comes up and steals it. shame on you?. [sic]" 


"i came here thinking they'd only use the same music arrangement but everything is exactly the same even the adlibs??wow i see zero creativity here the fact that the only thing they did was change the lyrics to chinese, there isn't even a bit of originality in it, not even the way they sing it. all the hard work hanbin did for this song can't even deserve a credit here? [sic]" and many more comments which expressed similar sentiments.
