CATACLYSM: Escape | LMH ✓

Someone copied my Story

Firstly, it is very unfortunate for me to have to do this but I believe my feelings are valid and that I have to do something about it.

Even though my works are fanfiction only, this does not lessen the value of me as a writer, and the effort I give to think original ideas and be able to arrange it as a whole plot.

An author that goes by the name HyunjinsLostTooth, made a book called GLITCH.

GLITCH is the name of my dystopian and sci-fi series where SKZ and Lee Minho are the main characters. At first when I saw it, I thought maybe it's just a coincidence. But when I opened the book and read the chapters, the similarities aren't deniable anymore.

List of things this person copied from Cataclysm:

1. The description and the tagline.
Mine: I'm going to put a glitch in the system.
Copycat: So, we are going to put a glitch in the system?

2. The terms I use for the book: traitors, Trainers, Mr. Park being the villain of District 9, District numbers, North, South, East, and West Wing, and even the island where exiles are hidden.

3. The first scene being the main character entering her room, the description of the room are the same, and the character's thoughts of her trainer's name.

4. The Head Trainer which is Chan, gathering the students to orient about their teams. Read what's on the picture. The black one is my book while the white one is from the copycat.

5. The "punch" and "food fight" scene lmao this is so obvious they didn't even try to change the words

6. This too, the argument between Minho and (Y/N) while training. Plus the food fight scene where Felix and Seungmin scoots nearer to (Y/N) and Jeongin, but this copycat just changed it to three females lol

7. This scene when Minho enters Y/N's room, and their conversation about trusting no one in the facility. They also copied Minho's character and the way he calls Y/N dumb or dummy. I didn't take a screenshot of ALL the plagiarized scenes because that I could let pass but this.. I focused on the major red flags. Lol

8. About Han Jisung and Ham... Sighs..
The next scene was about the others concluding if Han was into the girl,,, which was also the next scene in this part of my book. Dang,,,

It's very disrespectful. Even though I have flaws as a writer, I firmly believe that no one has the right to steal ideas. Maybe the copycat was heavily inspired (because HyunjinsLostTooth was a reader of Cataclysm, I saw their comments on my book) but that doesn't give them the pass to copy anything from anyone!!

HONESTLY, I STRUGGLE WITH CONTINUING TO READ THE COPYCAT'S BOOK BECAUSE IT HURTS ME THAT IT'S MY OWN WORK JUST REVISED AND CHANGED A BIT,,, BUT THIS PERSON DESERVES TO GET EXPOSED.

PLEASE REPORT THE BOOK, NOT THE PROFILE BECAUSE I BELIEVE IF THEY TAKE THIS MATTER SERIOUS AND APOLOGIZE AND TELL THEIR FOLLOWERS THAT THEY STOLE IT FROM ME, I THINK IT'LL BE OKAY AND I'LL FORGIVE THEM.

The damages done:

- HyunjinsLostTooth claims that it's their work (I stalked their profile and saw how they're so proud of GLITCH)
- a profile asked to translate GLITCH and HyunjinsLostTooth said it's okay as long as they're going to credit them for their work

THAT IS MY WORK NOT YOURS!!
