The new group CN Blue is swept in the tides again with the fact that they have also copied the album title from Ynot after the song as well. Currently, CN Blue is in fight against the copyright issues with the song ‘Blue bird’ from the group Ynot. The rhythm pattern and the melody of the chorus matching in the two songs was the cause of it.
According to Ynot, they stated that FNC Music, the management company for CN Blue, asked the composers Kim DoHoon and Lee SangHo to apologize about the matter, but it the issue seemed to be calming down solely because there hasn’t been any more actions from CN Blue.
However, the netizens are raising the matter once again by claiming that CN Blue’s album title ‘Bluetory’ actually means ‘Blue bird’. According to these netizens, ‘Bluetory’ is a mix up with the word “blue” and “tory” which means “bird” in Japanese.
CN Blue’s management, FNC Music replied that the album title ‘Bluetory’ was purely made up by the president of the company and that it represents CN Blue with the “blue” and the pure Korean word “tory.” They also added that “tory” stands for the “music specialty that each area has” and ‘Bluetory’ in general means that “CN Blue will be showing their own color in the music industry.

Date: 2010-02-05 07:57 pm (UTC)something kind of sentimental like the korean word for tory, meaning a region's area of specialization, seems pretty appropriate to me.

Date: 2010-02-05 07:45 pm (UTC)2. The band is in Korea, not Japan. So where the heck is the basis to this?
Really, netizens. Get a life.

Date: 2010-02-05 07:50 pm (UTC)anyways i am most of all disappointed if this is all this is going to culminate to. i get that plagiarism cases about western/american music is taken more seriously-- that people get really embarrassed about it. but ynot deserves some legal justice ugh

Date: 2010-02-05 08:19 pm (UTC)i think the thing that still bothers me the most is that this is one of the only completely legit cases of plagiarism that we've seen, rather than just netizens freaking out, and yet people still mindlessly deny that the songs sound similar. :| i mean, when the band who made the original song is agreeing....

Date: 2010-02-05 07:59 pm (UTC)Honestly, STFD.
Also, there was never an issue between YNot and CN Blue. I hate when these people throw out names without clarifying the situation just to generate buzz.

Date: 2010-02-05 08:14 pm (UTC)That's so reading into it too much or something.
I always thought that Bluetory was just a portmanteau of blue and factory or something. XD

Date: 2010-02-05 11:25 pm (UTC)It's "tori"/torii, and pronounced differently - or at least, not with the same emphasis. X(.
Sometimes I think someone pays this people to shovel shit.

Date: 2010-02-06 12:43 am (UTC)If Kim DoHoon and Lee SangHo had a hand in naming the album, then that was a pretty ballsy move on their part to name it Bluetory. It's fairly obvious that they ripped off Ynot's song, so if they influenced what CN Blue named the album, then it was like they were trying to get in another jab at Ynot.
Fuckers need to be fired and compensation should be made to Ynot. I hope the end result is a cut of the profits from the album, Kim DoHoon and Lee SangHo getting terminated, and a proper public apology from FNC Music. Ynot better not back down on this. The Korean indie scene shouldn't let these big companies rape their work and claim it as their own.
