Hello?

Writer Baek Hee-soo allegedly

plagiarized a book before in 2005,

Do we still have a writer

with a conscious left in Korea?

Jung Eun-gab reports,

Best-selling book, 'Abyss',

is being accused of plagiarism,

It supposedly copied 'Tragedy's End',

which was published in 1992,

The book wasn 't a bestseller,

But those who have read it claim

that it's been plagiarized,

It's exactly the same,

A villa by the lake

and the song are the same,

The main character's name

and even the ending are the same,

Wait a Iittle more!

How did this happen?

I need to figure things out

before I have a press conference!
