Hypocrisy of NewJeans, Min Hee Jin and etc.

So... Since Illit debuted they got massive hate for being copy of NewJeans (despite NJ copying Jeans group) and both NJ and MHJ fueled that hate towards them.

Yet today NewJeans literally released a poster using the visual concepts similar to Aespa and XG and guess what? their fans and etc. suddenly are making excuses of "it's only a photoshoot!!!" - yet Illit was bashed for "copying" Hanbok Photoshoot and MHJ even claimed there was no Hanbok Photoshoot before her.

NewJeans made a big show regarding plagiarism and "integrity" yet, as you can see they don't mind it as long as they are the ones plagiarising. Are the not planning to replace Aespa/XG? Per courtesy of their own words?

Again shows that Plagiarism was never an issue for them.

What baffles me is people brushing it off as whatever, yet Illit were treated as some kind of "Pariahs" for the design which wasn't even decided by them.

P.S. for certain individuals crying in advance on why people are discussing NJ in multiple threads well, maybe y'all should stop brigading Megathreads in order to close it down because you don't like the opinion of the commenters.
