I dont understand why people get so caught up in this stuff - they are from two completely separate markets... just enjoy the song.

Just ignore. Ignorant comments like these are a dime-a-dozen.

Mess. But this melody is too common.
There's a brazilian song with the same melody, but i cant remember its name now.

Definitely copied, but it isn't Meghan's fault.

Yeah, I'm pretty sure the melody's origins are in the 60s as well.

Well, Kpop acts always copy the music and style from western pop acts

Well tbh the song and melody are both basic as **** so it's obviously just a coincidence

In court it's 8(?) notes I think. If enough of them are in the same progression then it's deemed plagiarism.

Standard retro progression. Unless the lyrics and content is similar (which they aren't), there's no case here. 100s of songs sound similar.

Sorry, I don't really see it like an exact plagiarism, it's more of a Born This Way / Express Yourself situation. People trying too much.

I swear I heard it before, but it was surely not from that Kpop song, they probably also got is from somewhere else

OMG it's the same SONG. Exactly the same.
I hope they sue her and make her pay all the coins she earned with that body shaming song.
SO SO SO GLAD!
