The Givers refutes the FIFTY FIFTY copyright controversy and states the 'Cupid' copyright was acquired legally
We want to make it clear that we acquired the copyright for 'Cupid' through a legitimate process via our music publisher.
- In April 2022, The Givers began communicating with the publisher of the original"Cupid" song to acquire songs for artists unrelated to FIFTY FIFTY. Meaningful discussions regarding the use and approval of the song took place in May. 2. Does the Korea Music Copyright Association show a majority stake held by CEO Ahn Sung Il and no stake for the original songwriters?
- The Givers acquired the copyright for the original"Cupid" song from overseas composers, and the shares were distributed based on the actual contribution of each individual, including lyrics, composition, and arrangement by CEO Ahn Sung Il , as well as Korean lyrics by AHIN and KEENA. Thus, the suspicion raised is entirely unfounded.
- According to the copyright transfer agreement between a foreign composer and a publisher,"the assignee has discretionary authority over the method, form, and other characteristics of song credit." This granted The Givers the legal capability to create sound sources that align with additional creative activities, such as additional composition, arrangement, and lyric writing, in addition to the original"Cupid" song.
