Boy group MR.MR recently released a song entitled 'Mr.Mr,' which not only matched the group's name but also matched Girls' Generation's latest title track, raising fans' interest as well as some suspicions.
Regarding this connection to Girls' Generation, a rep of MR.MR told Asia Economy on March 3, "The portion of netizens pointing out that MR.MR's 'Mr.Mr' was dissing Girls' Generation, who made a comeback with a song of the same name, is correct."
MR.MR is the first idol group to release a dis song like this and also to acknowledge that it is indeed a dis song. 'Mr.Mr' was released on February 28 and included lyrics like, "How could you do that when I'm right here? / Girl, you come out so easily from behind the curtain / Not me, but another mistake, Mr.Mr / I bet you're amused by my embarrassment," and, "I become faint for a main like you / Am I loser and are you a winner? / We're going the same path / I must have looked small from your high perch / Is that why you did that to me?"
This song made many people suspicious about whether the boys were addressing Girls' Generation in the lyrics.
MR.MR's rep said, "Isn't it a violation of ethics in the music industry to openly use an existing group's name for content in a song? We deliberately put in that topic and the lyric's 'disses.'"
