Beach Fossils themselves have now joined the rabble of people who are claiming that hyukoh copied their song "Golden Age" for "Panda Bear." 


On Beach Fossils' official Twitter account, a tweet was uploaded that seemed to take a jab at hyukoh for their alleged plagiarism. The post read, "Imitation+flattery=sketchy! Golden Age + solo smells of Viceroy. Thanks Korea fans 4 heads up," including the link for the YouTube video that made a comparison to "Panda Bear" and "Golden Age," mentioning hyukoh in the process. 


Korean netizens have flooded the comment section with, "If this is not plagiarism then I don't know what is," "Sorry but I can't possibly explain this," and "If anyone says this isn't plagiarism then they should rip their eardrums out." 


Neither hyukoh nor their label HIGHGRND have yet responded to the band's accusation.
