Fans of Stray Kids are raising some concerns after an artist allegedly plagiarized one of the group’s songs before proceeding to “diss” both the group and fans after being called out.
Stray Kids are set to make their comeback on October 7 with the new album MAXIDENT.
The comeback is being highly anticipated by STAYs, who are excited to hear more from Stray Kids’ powerhouse production team 3RACHA. The team consists of leader Bang Chan, Changbin and Han, and they are responsible for many of Stray Kids’ most iconic hits.
Yet, amidst the excitment, fans are upset after finding out that artist Meng Zi Kun allegedly plagiarized Stray Kids’ song “Sorry, I Love You” from the group’s 2021 album NOEASY.

But when they called out the artist himself, he reportedly reacted by making derogatory comments about fans…
He replied to Felix's fans: "You liked him for many years, but Felix still doesn't know you."（ of course, the original is more vicious than my translation ）He used this to satirize cstay pic.twitter.com/XG5ObCO02H

Not only that, they also claim that this is not the first time that this artist has committed plagiarism. According to some fans, he has also plagiarized BLACKPINK‘s “Pretty Savage” in the past.
Consequently, concerned fans everywhere flooded the comments asking JYP Entertainment to step in and protect the group and to take legal action against plagiarism.
Some STAYs pointed out that this is not the first time Stray Kids are plagiarized this year, leading some to doubt whether the company really will take action or not.
@jypnation protect your artists because this is the second time in the span of a few months, someone plagiarized Stray Kids. He started spreading false information after stays said something about it, do something about it please

It remains to be seen how JYP Entertainment will react, especially with the release of MAXIDENT coming up. But for now, some fans are also expressing amusement at the situation, especially since it only proves how much of an icon Stray Kids really is.
People out of nowhere having one sided beef with Stray Kids never fails to make me laugh. How can someone release a whole ass diss track to insult the group he plagiarized and set himself up like that?
