Article: Twice's side, "We were not aware of similarities to Black Pink's outfits, we are sorry"

JYP's statement, "Regarding outfits from Dahyun and Chaeyoung’s Melody Project video, the hanbok in question was purchased from hanbok company and we didn't properly recognize the similarities. We sincerely apologize for this. We've explained the situation and our deepest apologies to the designer. We will be even more careful in the future so that this kind of incident doesn't happen again."
- [+466, -50] Let's practice singing first.
- [+452, -97] How would they know this?
- [+275, -6] Looks like the other company copied and manufactured it...
- [+262, -8] What's up with the comments? This is a situation where they straight up copied the designer's work, that's plagiarism and wrong. TWICE's coordi was wrong to put them in it so of course they should apologize. This is not a Twice/Blackpink issue...the problem is the coordi.
- [+ 226, -80] Only unemployed bums would have the time to care about this ㅋㅋㅋㅋ
- [+134, -121] Ah~no wonder. The moment I saw their music video I immediately thought of Blackpink...I just assumed they shared the same designer as their coordi
- [+96, -10] Blackpink's hanboks were quite popular though so its a bit hilarious for their coordi who's in the same industry to claim she didn't know..?
- [+39, -17] Dahyun only wore it because she was told to. JYP is infamous for their plagiarisms.
