Tahsan, Shusmita’s music video accused of plagiarism by Korean media
Recently, social media has been flooded with posts from BTS ARMY, who have been furious about the song "Harai Bohudur", for plagiarising the music video of BTS RM's solo track "Wild Flower". The song features the voice of popular artistes Tahsan, Shusmita Anis, and Sajid Sarker, among others.
BTS fans have accused the artistes of plagiarising 90 percent of RM's music video. They pointed out that the scenes in the forest and the use of fireworks in "Harai Bohudur" were identical to those in "Wild Flower".
Popular K-pop sites "Allkpop" and "Koreaboo" also shared articles about the alleged plagiarism on their website, stating that BTS ARMY is furious with the uncanny similarities.
"It didn't take long for ARMY to notice that several frames of the song's music video bore uncanny similarities to the cinematography of the 'Wild Flower' video, including the signature fireworks scenes and a similar CGI-storm setting," stated the article.
Neither the singers nor their representatives have made any official statements about the situation. According to the Korean outlet, the comment section of the YouTube video was disabled. Tahsan has allegedly deleted the Instagram post from his account, where he promoted the song after its release.
The music video was made by Flybot Studios productions.
The Daily Star is trying to reach the artistes for comments on the matter.
