What do you guys think?

Not really, maybe there are slight similarities but I'd call it more of an influence than copying so....I love Iu's song tho, its so not her style O_O its so new coming from her but i love it

Yassss y'all should download her new mini album

I'm too lazy to view it, but it doesn't surprise me if it does sample Gimme More cuz songs now and days are a copy of each other just changed slightly into a new song

There's more than slight similarities. This song literally samples instrumental stems AND Britney's vocals thru the entire song. Even Jim Beams vocal swell is copied into the Korean song. And I didn't watch whatever video is posted. I heard the actual song

Not the first and probably not the last in doing this. (Does anybody remember Get Ya by Hyori Lee?)
But we can't blame the artists. Producers are the ones behind these messes.

The producer could've gotten permission. Nobody knows. I have t seen it say anywhere that they're in trouble
