While the movie "The Man Who Lives with the King" (director Jang Hang-joon) is making a box office cruise with more than 10 million mark, it has been claimed that the scenario was plagiarized.
On the 9th, MBN reported that there was a claim that the scenario of the movie "The Man Who Lives with the King" was similar to that of the drama. According to reports, the bereaved family of the theater actor A, who died in 2019, raised a plagiarism theory that the draft scenario written by A for the production of the drama "Eomheungdo" in the 2000s and the movie "The Man Who Lives with the King" were similar in large part.
A is the 31st generation of Eom Heung-do, and he submitted the drama scenario to broadcasters, but the production was canceled. The bereaved family said they had submitted the scenario to a broadcaster contest a year before A's death, adding that the scene of Danjong refusing to eat at first and then getting close to him and saying, "Tell him it's delicious." He argued that some settings were similar, including King Danjong's attempt to save Eom Heung-do's son and that the court lady who lived with King Danjong was set as only one plum flower. The family expressed their hope that the original author would have his name on the work if A was correct, and A's bereaved family sent a certificate of content to the production company asking for clarification on the circumstances of the scenario creation and the source of the data.
In the meantime, the production company of "The Man Who Lives with the King" said that the claim is groundless.
A production company official told Star News, "The Man Who Lives with the King" is a pure creation based on historical facts, and the entire process of creation is recorded in detail and can be proved. Based on historical figures and events, there may be creations that claim similarity, but there is no path or causality of encountering the work in the creative process, and there is no plagiarism of other works in the planning, development, and production process."
"The allegations of plagiarism are groundless, and we will respond firmly to these claims in all processes, including legal procedures," he said. It is known that no certificate of contents has been delivered so far.
