SS501’s leader, Kim HyunJoong said “We are sorry to our fans because our album release was postponed for about 2 months. During the process of recording, we were caught in a swindle. If we haven’t released it during the midst (of recording), we would have sang a plagiarized song.”
SS501 planned to release their album in August, so they started recording for the album while doing their Asia Tour concert. SS501 went to USA to look for their title song for this album, they received a song that they like from an agent and started recording it immediately. However during the process of recording, this agent continued to offer to sell this song and some other songs, and even demanded for additional (song) usage fee. Kim HyunJoong paid this agent over 8 million won. But the process of recording didn’t go on smoothly after that, DSP Media confirmed that the title song was already being released in USA.
Park JungMin revealed “After we ended our Japan concert in August, on the flight back home, we don’t know who sang this song, but we heard the song which sounded like our title song. We immediately investigate on that agent and confirmed that we were being swindled.” Kim HyunJoong said that luckily through DSP Media’s effort, the 8 million won was returned to him.
DSP Media said “We are lucky that we found out about the song during the process of recording and was able to change it. Even though we do not have any financial losses, because of this, we wasted 2 months time which is like money to us.”
