Girl group Kara just released their new single "Step" and now making a sound on music charts. However, it also suspected of plagiarism at the same time.

On midnight of the 6th, Kara revealed their comeback track "Step" after 10 months. After having some conflicts between their agency earlier this year, Kara finally released the song showing the members' impressive enthusiasm.

However, some netizens were suspecting "Step" of plagiarizing the song from American singer Joan Osborne titled "One of us". The combined music videos of the two songs are floating around in the internet. They claimed that the two songs have the same melodies.

This is not the first time Kara received plagiarism allegations. Early last year, their hit single "Lupin" also involved in this kind of controversy. However, the "Step" plagiarism issue seems to end up soon. One expert said, "To constitute plagiarism, a song should contains same few lyrics and similar rhythm." He added, "Although it sounds similar, it doesn't comprehend plagiarism."


*I dont find any similarities between the two. Or maybe there's a remix version of "One of us". You guys better decide!
