A Pink using Kyle Hanagami's choreography without permission



Instiz: Overseas controversy of A Pink using someone's choreography without permission 



A Pink was on Yoo Hee Yeol's Sketchbook on June 7, 2014. 
Chorong, Bomi and Hayoung danced with Partition.

Partition is Beyonce's song and a famous American choreographer, Kyle Hanagami, had created his own choreography and posted on his Youtube.
*Kyle Hanagami was a choreographer for Jo Kwon's I'm Da One, After School's Flashback, and NU'EST's Face.

A Pink (A Cube) used the choreography without Hanagami's permission and it was broadcasted.



Hanagami himself commented on the controversial video of A Pink.


This is Hanagami's choreography video on his Youtube channel.
Hanagami's fans are upset because A Cube didn't even give him credit.



Some comments on Youtube.

=====


- I hope it turns out well.

- I can understand why the choreographer is annoyed.

- Didn't After School get into a similar controversy?

- I see many groups using choreographies without permission.
