According to certain netizens, the answer is yes. The dust has yet to settle after CNBLUE fell under fire with plagiarism accusations regarding their debut album�I'm a Loner, �and the media has announced that the unsolved matter will officially be taken to the court. However, it looks like FNC Music, CNBLUE's label, might soon have a second controversy to clear up against Ynot, the indie band that claims to be the victim in this issue. A number of netizens now believe that FNC Music has not only plagiarized the track itself, but also their album title; some people have noticed an uncanny similarity between the two names. As many already know, CNBLUE's album is entitled Bluetory, and the track of the alleged original album by Ynot is titled Bluebird. Obviously the word 'blue' is used in both titles. Now, some may argue that this alone isn't enough to make a plagiarism case, since 'blue' is such a common word. However, it turns out 'tory (??)' actually means bird in Japanese, making both titles essentially identical. FNC Music has made a statement regarding this allegation:

"The album was personally titled by the president of our agency. It's a combination of the word 'blue', a reference to CNBLUE, and 'tory (??),' a pure Korean word [terminology commonly used in literature, not everyday language] that refers to the musical individualism that each region of a country has. Together, 'Bluetory' refers to the idea that CNBLUE will show their own color of music to the audience."

"Show their own color"? How ironic... Perhaps an album title isn't enough to generate an independent lawsuit of its own, but it certainly isn't helping CNBLUE's absolute denial of having any relation or knowledge of Ynot. It's time for you guys to be the judges again - Bluetory vs Blue Bird. Do you think FNC Music's title was inspired by Ynot, or is this an unfortunate coincidence? Thanks to�leachang for the tip.
