(Boy Radio), who tweeted the same line in October 2014. 


With this controversy, other lyrics such as his line in "Hold Me Tight" ("I should've just always lost to you. Why did I always argue?") and J-Hope's line in "Just One Day" ("I'll confess to you and my spotlight will be the moon") have been pointed out to be lines from books and other songs. However, while these two are just similarly worded, the lines in his rap for "U" are copied word for word, causing controversy and anger from the original tweeters who are known for tweeting thoughtful words.
