Lee Hyori has just gotten the plagiarism finger pointed at her, and this time it does not look good. Canadian girl group named Cookie Culture has accused Hyori of plagiarizing their song entitled “Boy, Bring It Back.”

Hyori’s song entitled “Bring It Back” sounds, unfortunately almost identical to the Cookie Culture song. Stacey Maroske, a Cookie Culture member, said in a statement that, “I was shocked when I first heard Lee Hyori’s 2010 recording. I couldn’t believe how similar the song was. It’s almost an exact replica, even down to our vocal riffs. I mean we worked really hard as a group to write this song and perfect it back in 2008. It just seems really unfair that this song is being sold on iTunes by an artist who has stolen the song from us. It’s plagiarism, and we hope we see justice.”

While I do sympathize with Hyori, there is still no excuse from plagiarism. Cookie Culture will no doubt take legal action, and someone on the Mnet team is going to be in some very, very hot water. If you don’t believe me, then see (hear) for yourself. Be prepared for some disappointment.
