Feeling Embarrassed When Knowing His Video Clip is Exactly the Same as IU's 'Above the Time' MV, Via Vallen Apologizes Via Vallen - IU @ YouTube.com/ascadamusik/1theK

Kapanlagi.com - Not long after releasing his latest video clip titled Kasih Dengarlah Aku, Via Vallen immediately received a lot of criticism from netizens. Not without reason, because the theme and scenes in the video are considered to have plagiarized IU's MV, Above the Time.

What's even more surprising, this news has reached the ears of Korean netizens and was featured in a famous K-Pop news site, Allkpop. K-netz openly criticized Via Vallen's video clip, considering it a low-budget plagiarism of the original version, from IU's MV.

Realizing that his name has become a hot topic on social media, Via finally speaks up. Through his Insta Story, this beautiful dangdut singer from Surabaya sincerely apologizes.

1. Apologies

"To IU, IU fans, especially Vyanisty, and anyone who feels disadvantaged. I apologize for my latest music video that turned out to be very similar to IU's MV. There was absolutely no intention behind this, because I am not a fan of K-Pop in general, so I don't know much about K-Pop MVs," wrote Via Vallen.

Via also admitted that she is only familiar with BLACKPINK. As we know, Via often covers songs from girl groups under YG Entertainment.

 

2. Admitting Embarrassment

She continued, "If I had known from the beginning that the MV for 'Kasih Dengarkanlah Aku' is very similar to someone else's MV, I would definitely have requested a concept change. Honestly, I am very EMBARRASSED when I found out. I will ask for the video to be taken down."

"And this will be a lesson for the future to avoid such incidents. Once again, from the bottom of my heart, I sincerely apologize," concluded Via.
