Japanese lawyer program copied on Korean TV (Video)
Here’s an interesting video clip from a Japanese TV show in which celebrities and a panel of lawyers give their opinions on various problems. They are showcasing a South Korean program that has
Not only are the sets copied, but even the appearance of text on screen and the way certain types of celebrities are seated is the same as the Japanese original (old guy, female talent, handsome guy and female idol in the first row, comedians in the back). However, there are a few differences, such as the behavior of the host and the attractiveness of a lawyer (the Korean version of the guy is more handsome). They use the word “pakuri,” which basically means the South Korean TV program stole the idea for the show. Is this kind of thing illegal?

The only difference between Korean TV and the Japanese shows they steal from is the lack of bikinis in the Korean versions. It happens constantly.

There is a show on THIS SECOND called World Great TV. The entire show is showing clips from TV shows around the world and also clips from other Japanese TV programs with the bugs and text blurred out and new text covering it.

I’m watching it right now, and unlike the Korean show in question, it appears to give credit to the sources of the TV programs, and I wouldn’t be surprised if it pays for the rights to show clips. It’s a totally different situation from the video in this post.
it depends if those features were included in the franchise. If franchise there was.

LOL Nothing new here, really. Korea has been ripping stuff off from Japan and other countries for a long time. In most cases, they don’t even bother to change the packaging it’s funny.

I think Korea has SOME originality. It need not copy from Japan, China, etc.

Korea do have originality but some of their stuffs (fashion, music, entertainment, movies, food, etc) tends to rip off from Japan and U.S the most.

Why do I smell inferiority complex?
Nonetheless, although Korea is heavily influenced by – as Annie had said – the U.S. and Japan, it has its fair share of creative people.

Heres one of the comments on youtube about the video
“No, you are wrong. both of them negotiatiated the format of this show 5 years ago. A few days ago, NTV in Japan, which made the above clip, apologized to SBS broadcasting in Korea for their mistakes regarding to its poor internal communication . What a shame. If you don’t believe my words, how about inquiring to NTV?”

I inquired into NTV and phoned NTV right now, and asked if there is a fact that NTV apologized to SBS.
The answer….There IS NO SUCH A FACT.
She answered NTV is negotiating with SBS regarding legal right.
So your information turned out to be wrong.
Thanks for taking up a false but interesting comment.
If you don’t believe my words, how about inquiring to NTV?”

Wow ponta, nice work. I was about to edit the post and include a mention of what Random Korean posted, but I guess I won’t know. If NTV actually makes a public statement or changes what they’re telling people, I will edit the post to include the new stance.
I’ll send you phone number of NTV.
You can check it by yourself.
