The reason? They could&#8217;ve been copying <strong>NewJeans<\/strong>, one of Kpop&#8217;s newest and biggest groups recently. As proof, thousands of Bunnies (that&#8217;s the adorable fandom name NewJeans fans wear proudly) decided to put YG on the spot for using their concept with a new group, which was cheekily named <strong>OldPants<\/strong>. But plot twist! It was all a misunderstanding.<\/p>\n<p>When this drama started, netizens quickly spilled the tea, saying that OldPants took a lot of elements from NewJeans. But hold up, this Kpop drama doesn&#8217;t stop here! Apparently, this group also snatched the names of <strong>BLACKPINK\u2019s divas<\/strong>. Let&#8217;s break it down, shall we?<\/p>\n<p>First, the logo confusion: OldPants was apparently using a blue background with a<strong> bunny silhouette<\/strong>, which gives off major NewJeans vibes, as they also got their own bunny logo. Then, there&#8217;s the names: these new members have suspicious names, as they all seem to be inspired by BLACKPINK. They\u2019re called <strong>Jinie, Rosa, Lida,<\/strong> and<strong> Jiwoo<\/strong>. Of course, that rings a bell with Jennie, Ros\u00e9, Lisa, and Jisoo!<\/p>\n<p>As if that wasn&#8217;t enough, their Instagram name is @oldpants_yg_official, making every Kpop stan on the Internet world think this is one of<strong> YG\u2019s latest groups<\/strong>. The result? A terrible look for a company, especially one of the big 4.<\/p>\n<p>But, here&#8217;s the real tea: after this major drama, fans noticed a sudden name change on that OldPants Insta profile. It was changed to &#8220;<strong>on1rookies<\/strong>,&#8221; which says this new group is probably under <strong>ON1 Entertainment<\/strong>. The verdict? Maybe, just maybe, YG Entertainment isn&#8217;t going for that copycat game, and it was all just a marketing strategy. It worked for sure, if they were looking for attention (cough, cough, NewJeans) that&#8217;s what they got!<\/p>\n<p><iframe loading=\"lazy\" hcb-fetch-image-from=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch?v=jOTfBlKSQYY&amp;ab_channel=HYBELABELS\" title=\"NewJeans (\ub274\uc9c4\uc2a4) &#039;ETA&#039; Official MV\" width=\"1240\" height=\"698\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/jOTfBlKSQYY?feature=oembed\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share\" referrerpolicy=\"strict-origin-when-cross-origin\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Agency YG Entertainment has found itself in hot water!
