The song "?????" from the Chinese movie '????' has been accused of sounding exactly like the VIXX LR song, which was composed by Ravi. The singer has denied that the song is plagiarized, and the song has been removed from YouTube.
Ravi himself spoke up on the controversy, saying, "When I say 'I want to become a trend', I didn't mean to take my music, copy it, ignore my fans and hurt them. There is a definite difference between taking a song as reference and inspiration, and just copying, and there is also a difference between being confident and being blatant. You can experience your words not matching your actions as a creator, and you can be proud of your work, but I believe that how you say things makes a big difference. It's very distasteful to see your actions ignoring and hurting the fans who love and support both me and my music. Even when people said there was plagiarism, I tried to think of it well by thinking we influenced someone, since we also gain inspiration from others. I hope everyone who is influenced by our contents think well, and don't hurt our fans or us."
Jellyfish Entertainment said, "We are very disappointed to see that a creation by our label artist and composer has been used without permission. We have requested a check for plagiarism to the Korea Copyright Commission. We will be taking strong legal action according to the results."
