'Along with the Gods What to play' When you need to raise awareness of the creator Copyright consciousness
The creators' comfortable recognition of Copyright leaves a regret.
Earlier, Web toon writer Along with the Gods was controversial about the violation of Copyright by unauthorized use of camouflage pattern in one of his Exhibition works, "What are you doing in the stairs?"
In this regard, Along with the Gods told personal SNS on September 12, "I did not know that the used Image had a watermark. Tian Shi started to buy it late because the audience informed me. "There are two mistakes. I am sorry that I have not confirmed it, so I have made Tian Shi in that state of a 7-meter picture. I will check it well in the future. "
"The Image used in this place is searched by Google for search terms + free Image, and the Image was searched and stored without thinking. I focused on finding the desired pattern among the many camouflage patterns, and I did not recognize the watermark. "
Along with the Gods paid for the Image usage after receiving the tip, adding that the work was discarded after Tian Shi.
This is not the first time that creators' complacent Copyright consciousness has been controversial. MBC 'What do you do when you play' was also hit by unauthorized use of data Image. In MBC's "What to Play" broadcast on March 13, Yoo Jae-seok used Yoon's "Triangle of Regrets of Monthly Wages" Image on the scene where he mentioned stock investment. The source was written as Luriweb.
After the broadcast, Yoon said that he used Image for commercial purposes without prior agreement on his personal SNS, saying, "If you found Image on the platform, you should have searched the original author somehow and contacted him." "What do you do when you play?" "I did not exactly carry out the specific picture source of the data used in the broadcast. I will apologize politely and proceed with the Copyright consultation as soon as I get in touch with Yoon Sun-young. "
In addition, actor Kim Ji-hoon downloaded the HBO MAX 'Raided by Wolves', which was not officially serviced in Korea, from MBC 'I Live Alone', and watched it. Choreographer Bae Yoon-jung's husband was also criticized for posting a post that downloaded SBS 'Pent House' to Illegal. Bae Yoon-jung apologized for the shame and apology that he was not careful as an industry person.
The controversy is unfortunate because it is a poor Copyright perception that people who make creations, not others, have shown. Furthermore, Along with the Gods participated in the Web toon Illegal distribution eradication campaign conducted by the Ministry of Culture, Sports and Tourism last year. The writer who emphasized the unique authority of the creation became a party to the Copyright infringement.
Copyright is the first purpose of recognizing the efforts and values of the creator of the creation and protecting the author's rights. It is necessary to be aware that others are not only precious, but also that they are precious to others. Many creators are alerted and hope that similar controversy will not be repeated.
