British band Shakatak wrote on its official account on the 19th that "Wise Music Group, a publishing company, is dealing with the case. I hired a musicologist to look more closely at the issue" he said.
Shakatak believes that Newzins' May announcement of 'Bubblegum' plagiarized their 'Easier Said Than Done'. Shakatak claims that the composition includes the same rhythm and note, the melody hook is the same, the use of electric guitar and bass, and the rhythm and harmony of Tampa are similar. In June, Shakatak sent official complaints and proof of content demanding the suspension of the use of the Bubble Gum and compensation to six companies, including New Jin's agency, its parent company, Hive, and the Korea Music Copyright Association, and Sony Music Publishing Hong Kong Limited (Korean sales office).

As Shakatak said he hired a musicologist, attention is being paid to the results of the plagiarism battle surrounding Newzins.
In particular, Newzins is bound to be more sensitive to plagiarism issues than other groups. In May, Min Hee-jin, who was involved in allegations that he plagiarized Mexico Jeans' group name, logo design, costume code, and music video concept, claimed that other groups, including Irish, plagiarized New Jeans This is because he has been sued for defamation and obstruction of business.

In the midst of this, Shakatak's transcripts were leaked and happening. Some netizens parodied Min Hee-jin's Kakao Talk conversation that was leaked in the past and attacked Shakatak because there is no need to delay it if he goes to the lawsuit. And we're preparing for a public opinion battle. The best thing is that Adore conspired to suggest compromise with me even to prevent a major bad news.
