BLACKPINK, TWICE and BTS have been on the receiving end of illegal use of YouTube’s “copyright” strike system.

Twice’s music videos, “Like Ooh Aah”, “Likey” and “Yes or Yes” have been taken off YouTube as a result of a copyright strike from “Aiplex Software Private Limited“.

In addition, BLACKPINK’s “DDU-DU DDU-DU” and Jennie’s “Solo” have also been removed by the same company.

BTS V’s solo song “Singularity” also appears to have been taken down.

The offending party appears to be a content production company based in Bengaluru, India.

With how popular YouTube is as a streaming service for K-Pop, you have to imagine this will have consequences once JYP, YG and BigHit are made aware.
