The Supreme Court found that a song from 2002 by an American singer also used the same kind of pattern that Kim Shin Il is accusing J.Y. Park of plagiarizing.�Thus, they have overturned the previous court rulings and have sent the case back for retrial to the Seoul High Court.
For background information, this lawsuit began in 2011 after a plagiarism controversy arose involving�IU's "Someday" from the 'Dream High 1' OST. "Someday"�was found to possess a very similar chorus line to�Ash's "To My Man", and as a result, its composer (Kim Shin Il)�decided to�sue producer�J.Y. Park. Each previous rulings had sided in favor of Kim Shin Il, but now the previous decisions have been revoked and a retrial will take place.
