They further shared, "Seven" is a song made through the collaboration of 5 foreign composers and the song is a new creation, completely unrelated to the song in the domestic album from 23 years ago as some people have claimed. These are one-sided statements that do not meet any criteria such as similarity and other principles in determining plagiarism."
Talking about the song "Seven", Jungkook once said: "The song is very good, right? I knew the audience's response would be good. I trust my intuition."

Fin.KL's "Time of Mask" is a track from the girl group's special album "SPECIAL" and was composed by Yang Joon Young. Yang Joon Young has reportedly forwarded a request for plagiarism checks on the two songs to the producer at HYBE Labels and is currently awaiting a response.
HYBE Labels is said to have given a temporary written response, stating that the issue cannot be resolved at this time due to chairman Bang Si Hyuk's business trip to the United States.
Since its release, Jungkook's "Seven" has made history by setting new records and topping multiple charts including those on Billboard, Spotify, and more.
