Some Wanna One fans said that 1THE9 copied Wanna One's concept:

but it turned out that 1THE9 actually has 5 concept pictures but people were just talking about one of them, here are the other pictures of 1THE9:

People are upset that someWannables were attacking a group that hasn't debut yet and attacking them for something they're not responsible of. some people also attacked them because of their name saying that they copied 1theK which isn't true, their name's romanization in Korean means "Wonder9".

1THE9 fans started using hashtag#1the9iswonderful to clear the misunderstanding.

Here are some of 1THE9 fans tweets:

"They also struggled to fight for a place to make a debut. They also once fell at the lowest point. When they feel hopeless. But what? They continue to get up and improve themselves. They are teenagers who want to do something valuable in their young age."

"wannables complaining about 1the9 wearing same white shirts and blue jeans as wanna one when snsd did this whole concept FIRST in 2009 but did sones came at wanna one when they released that pic ?? NO! so stop hating on them for a damnit picture and stream domino"

"!! WANNABLES !!

bout this wanna one - 1the9 thing! 1the9 DID NOT use "All I wanna do" as their greeting!!
the thing people are mad about is the hand movement! so don't hate on 1the9!
they're absolute cuties and don't deserve the criticism! hate the company instead
rt to spread"

"do you all stan like four groups for you to think 1the9 copied wanna one's intro lmao all intros are copied in that case yeah it's similar that doesn't mean they copied wanna one pleASE GROW UP"

"Wanna one was also accused for copying Nct’s hand gesture so you should learn from that, don’t be stupid pls"

"“wonder about! us! hello we are1the9" and “all i wanna do! wannaone!” its TOTALLY DIFFERENT"

"the greeting is pretty similar and it went in this order
got7 > nct > wanna one > 1the9

did aghases hate on nct? no
did nctzens hate on wanna one? yes
did wannables hate on 1the9? yes, but also no cause y’all are saying you’re hating on mbk"

"So please REMEMBER those words you've said to shield them, REMEMBER what you guys went through when Wanna One were accused of plagiarizing and stop saying harsh words to 1THE9."

some Wannables tweets:

"Just show us the real color of u guys. Imitating seniors doesnt make yall looking good. Trust me. Sorry not sorry but yall need to change things that relate to our wannaone. OK?"

"Please, change your greetings immediately. the greeting you made belongs towanna one. You can use another greeting but not if you have to imitate wanna one!"

"1the9 plagiarize wanna one will not make them famous sweetie"

"check your greeting! Its same with wannaone!! Please change!! @official__1the9"

"1The9 more like what the 9. seriously, its not like wanna one is some nugu group you've never seen before their greetings? come up with your own greeting like how hard is it"

- it seems that some 1THE9 greeting videos have been edited to make it look like Wanna One's
