STARRING Huang Xuan and Wang Yibo, historical detective drama “Luoyang” has been a hot buzz since its premiere Dec. 1. After accusations arose that the drama plagiarized an original design in one of their props, the show’s production team immediately apologized. In the first episode, there is a scene where Wang Yibo and Song Yi’s characters are getting married. Song is holding a red bridal fan, whose a design blogger named Jia Ran accused the team of plagiarizing. Jia Ran wrote, “The work has been plagiarized to the point where people are desensitized. In the past, there were a lot of copycats on taobao.com; now it appears on television shows. When will this end?” The production team admitted to their negligence, saying they have apologized to Jia Ran as well as viewers. When they were making the fan prop, they said, they found a design that “was in wide circulation,” without realizing it was an original design. (SD-Agencies) |
