Black Knight Accused of Plagiarism
Kim Woo Bin's Black Knight is accused of plagiarizing a video game.
On May 16, Netflix responded to the reports of the drama plagiarizing the video game Death Stranding, released in 2019.
The streaming giant denied all allegations and stated that the drama was based on a webtoon by Lee Yoon Kyun, released last 2016.
Black Knight is a post-apocalyptic drama which tells of deliverymen risking their lives to deliver much needed oxygen and stars Kim Woo Bin. Meanwhile, Death Stranding is quite similar as it tells of a delivery man which delivers supplies in post-apocalyptic United States.
Some says that the premise of the two is the same, but the webtoon was released 3 years before Tha release of the video game, so the allegations may be put to rest by just that fact.
