Brian Puspos expresses his annoyance with iKON using his choreography + deletes tweets

iKON
Brian Puspos recently got a little peeved finding out iKON used his choreography on 'MIX & MATCH' and took to Twitter to express his displeasure. 



On the 17th, Brian Puspos stirred the ongoing debate on whether crediting someone's choreography is enough or if there needs to be prior consent and hiring of the choreographer. He linked to iKON's cover of "Niliria", "All of Me", and "Siri Says" on the 8th episode of 'MIX & MATCH', claiming that this isn't the first time that the iKON boys have used his choreography. However, fans pointed out that he was credited on the show and YouTube channel, saying that he seems to be a bit overreacting. He later deleted his tweets, possibly due to backlash from fans.



 

After he deleted his most recent tweet, he tweeted again, "miss you guys. Yall killed it! Proud. Ps. You have crazy fans that misread things," apparently unaware that he tweeted to iKON's international fanbase @iKON_Global. It seems after realizing his mistake, he deleted that tweet as well.




But what left some fans in confusion was his previous tweet from October 3rd that showed a different attitude towards their use of his choreography, saying that it was "pretty cool" and "my boys killed it". 



If you remember, this isn't the first time that Team B, now known as iKON, and their agency YG Entertainment have been criticized for the use of choreography without permission. Although the agency took steps to credit Brian Puspos, seemingly having learned from the past occurrences of similar situation, it seems that Brian's opinion was that simply just writing his name in the credits is not enough.


What are your thoughts on this situation?
