CCTV Results of Kangin’s Assault Case Revealed

Kangin's CCTV findings about his assault case were released today.

The police have revealed the results after analyzing the CCTV video for the past few days. The police revealed through a press release, "Kangin and the other man involved threw punches and kicked each other on the street in front of the bar. After learning about this, Kangin's sunbae came and got involved in the fight, also throwing punches and kicking."

They continued, "All 7 people involved have been sentenced with acts of violence and legal violations but they are not slapped with a restraining order and are thus not going to prison. As for Kangin, we acknowledge the fact that Kangin tried to keep himself away from the fight. He tried many times to ignore the one person that kept following him and using violence against him. We will count Kangin's acts of violence as self defense."

The police concluded that the fight involved Kangin, two men who escaped the fight, one person who was with Kangin, and three extra people.

Kangin had denied the charges made against him 5 days ago and now the truth is finally out. The police have decided Kangin did try to stay out of it which makes it self defense but he must go to court for a further and more detailed decision about his punishment because he is charged with an act of violence violation. Kangin released a statement apologizing.

Хм, значит, самозащита. Ну что ж, по крайней мере, не соврал, что невиновен. Вообще, конечно, корейцы как всегда делают из мухи слона, ну подумаешь, подрался парень, с кем не бывает. Надеюсь, теперь его временный вынужденный отпуск закончится.

Sony Slams YG Entertainment for Plagiarism Issues

As many of you recall, back in August, Sony noted similarities between G-Dragon's "Heartbreaker" & "Right Round" (Flo Rida) as well as "Butterfly" & "She's Electric" (Oasis). On the 21st, Sony reported their observations to the original producers of each song then waited for their response.

Furthermore, it isn't just G-Dragon who's under the heat - according to Freechal, "I Don't Care" by 2NE1 (supposedly akin to Lionel Richie's "Just Go") & Big Bang's "With U" are also under the same situation.

ATV Music Publishing, the South Korean branch of Sony, just announced the verdict on these alleged similarities. Today on Sisa Magazine 2580, a news programme on MBC, it was reported that officials from Sony sent YG Entertainment warning letters regarding the plagiarism. Sony's legal representative stated, "It was a hard decision for the music critics. However, they decided that there were similarities and accordingly issued a warning letter to the production company and composers. They have also denied YG Entertainment the permission to promote these songs."

So I guess it's official - all three entertainment companies of the Holy Trinity (aka SM, JYP & YG) are having some type of who-can-stir-the-biggest-controversy contest going on. In the span a mere two months, we've seen mini implosions with TVXQ, Kangin, Jaebeom and now, officially, G-Dragon?

Хм-хм, напоминает запрет цензуры на отдельные фразы из Миротика - неприятно, но какбэ бессмысленно, ибо альбом уже продан, промоушн окончен, награды получены. Тут то же самое. Но все равно как-то нехорошо. Плагиат - в принципе такая скользкая тема, и теперь YG надо правильно выйти из этой ситуации, чтоб больше подобного не повторялось.
