Since then, suspicions of plagiarism about You Hee-yeol's past Music have also been poured out.

Junjo pointed out, "You Hee-yeol's Composer's life Music No. 4 'The Time I Turn on' also seems to have similarities with Ryuichi Sakamoto's performance, so I would like to raise the issue." You Hee-yeol's Composer brought the same melody to the main theme and appeared to have released his work as if he were his own without mentioning the original author (Morikone) or arranger (Sakamoto). "
"I am a similar Music player, and I think that 'unconscious imitation' in the genre is inevitable to some extent. However, in the case of this song (the time I turn on), the similarity is so thick that it seems likely to be seen as additional plagiarism. "
In addition, the value of YouTuber, who introduced himself as a Music communicator, also raised suspicions of plagiarism by You Hee-yeol on the YouTube channel on the 16th, with a video titled "You Hee-yeol's plagiarism was more problematic in 2013".

The value was "There were many stories about the similarity of the two songs between the Musicians at the time, and related articles were uploaded," he said. "It was You Hee-yeol's behavior that did not understand. You Hee-yeol appeared on the air at the time, leaving hints as if he had plagiarized. You Hee-yeol continues to gag with a device called plagiarism. Yoo Jae-Suk has made his favorite dance songs. If you listen to them, it is a song that has written the existing songs. Yoo Jae-Suk points out that plagiarism is passed by the entertainment. "
"Then I call the choreographer to choreograph this song, and he choreographs what he thinks. The problem is that this choreography is so similar to original choreography. Is there any mind to let me know that I am plagiarizing? I am more surprised by this behavior than the suspicion of plagiarism in this song? "
In the actual video, You Hee-yeol swings her body to both sides while fixing one arm, crossing the other arm back and forth, and then choreographs her hips.
