TWS is under scrutiny after allegations surfaced that their latest track, "Double Take," bears a striking resemblance to GD & TOP's hit song "Knock Out."

Fans and netizens have pointed out numerous similarities between the two songs, including the beat, melody, and overall composition. Social media platforms and online forums compared the two songs, with many users posting side-by-side clips highlighting the alleged plagiarism.

Korean netizens commented:

"It sounds similar."

""Wait, they do sound similar, but wasn't TWS's concept supposed to be refreshing? Suddenly, it's a complete change, lol."

"They should've copied moderately; it's not just one or two things they're imitating."

"I knew HYBE was always shameless, but this is just too much."

"Seriously, this song wouldn't exist without 'Knock Out.'"

"It's so similar."

"Even the music video is similar. lol."

"I can't spot the similarities."
