We're back with more K-pop song recommendations! For this episode of Play This! we take a very *serious* look at a very UN-serious song: (G)I-DLE's latest comeback and hit, "Queencard." Sometimes in K-pop we get wacky concepts, nonsensical lyrics and unserious music—but who cares if it WORKS? And "Queencard" works fantastically, thanks to the plenty of camp elements throughout.Tune in for our discussion on all things camp in K-pop (Hint: It's everywhere; you just have to know what you're looking for). Plus, don't miss our song recommendations in the second half of the episode! We dug into the K-pop archives for some oldies but goodies.GET THE PLAYLIST ON SPOTIFY: PLAY THIS: (G)I-DLE's Queencard Plus Other Unserious & Camp K-PopEPISODE RUNDOWN (w/TIME STAMPS)Intro to (G)I-DLE's "Allergy" & "Queencard"What makes (G)I-DLE's "Queencard" camp?

No episódio desta segunda, eu relembro as polêmicas de plágio e sajaegi de BBoom BBoom, defendo o grupo e comento como BAAM é parecida com o single anterior. Além disso, cito alguns outros casos de músicas similares de artistas como EXID, 4Minute, CLC, f(x) e SHINee.
Momoland's "Baam" was a clear formula copy from "BBoom BBoom," but was the song daebak or not? Editor's note: this was recorded back in June.

On Episode 28 of KultScene's K-pop Unmuted, Stephen Knight is joined by musician and podcaster Rhodri Thomas to discuss Jazz and Kpop. We talk about the influence of jazz on a dozen Kpop songs. We also discuss our K-pop Unmuted picks, The Snowman by Jung Seung Hwan, and Bboom Bboom by Momoland.
Today's theme: Plagirism Recently, Korean singer Sunmi and composer Teddy were under suspision of plagiarizing her track “Heroine.” Some popel have argued that the song is a copy of “Fight for This Love” by Cheryl Cole. Also, Momoland's latest song “Bboom Bboom” has been accused of plagirism by Serebro, the original singers of “Mi Mi Mi.” Meanwhile, some of the Korean TV productions have criticized China's brazen plaigirim of Korean programs such as “Yoon's Kitchen” and “Hyori's Homestay.” We look into the definition of copyright and discuss the controversies surrounding plagirism issues in many different fields including music, TV, academia, etc. The Conversationalist with Professor Mun Chae-young (문채영) from Seoul Women's University General English Program “We see many thesis plagiarism charges raised against academic figures. Just how difficult is it to get a thesis approved? How long does it take to write one, and how many sources do you have to refer to?” & Lawyer Baek Kyung-tae (백경태) from Korea Copyright Commission “Often times, we see so many plagiarism issues in terms of breaching copyrights of original works in music, television shows, films, product brands and many more. How effective are these copyrights when it comes to plagiarism controversies?” & Kpopalypse K-pop blogger based in Australia who is also a music teacher “Earlier in the show, we listened to clips of Sunmi's Heroine and Cheryl Cole's Fight for this love. For many of us they sound strikingly similar but can you explain for us why this does not constitute a plagiarism?” Media Monster Mishima: A Life in 4 Chapters Next week: Gangwondo (in time for Pyeongchang Olympics)
