BTS fans are upset at novelist Jung Soo Young for allegedly violating copyright policy. According to claims, her novel 'Surgeon's Love' has copied the cover art of BTS's 'HwaYangYeonHwa Part. 2'.

The cover art of 'HwaYangYeonHwa Part. 2' shows a gray butterfly against a light blue background. The cover of Jung Soo Young's recently published novel depicts a very similar image, of butterflies, color palette, and more.


The timing of the novel is garnering equal suspicion, due to the fact that BTS's album was released in November 2015, while the novel was recently published on February 29, 2016.


Fans couldn't contain their anger, commenting, "I know BTS' cover art is very pretty but you can't do that T.T ", "You can't just copy it like that! BTS should sue her", "Heol.. what the.. plagiarism!!", and more. 


Although there has been no official accusations nor any word from the novelist, but many fans are siding against the author. 


Take a look at the two covers below. Do you think the novelist intended to copy BTS' cover art?
