However, when a product explodes, it is inevitable that a group of "twins" with similar looks will emerge.

No, SHEIN, a Chinese fast fashion brand that has been sought after by young sisters in Japan in recent years, has also launched dumpling bags.

Although it is our domestic brand, it is a typical "flowering inside the wall and fragrant outside the wall", which is popular in Japan~

Looking at SHEIN's Japanese official website, the dumpling bun priced at 632 yen that was accused of plagiarism seems to have been taken off the shelves.

However, Osaka-chan found 3 bags that resembled dumpling buns, with prices ranging from 430 to 747 yen.

You must know that the price of UNIQLO in Japan is 1,500 yen, which is equivalent to nearly half the price you can get at SHEIN.

And some netizens have compared, the two brands of dumpling buns cannot be said to be irrelevant, they can only be said to be exactly the same!

And the dumpling bun itself does not have a very complicated process design, so it can be said that there is no technical difficulty in copying.

As the sales of SHEIN's dumpling bags are rising, Uniqlo, which was stolen, is gone!

In a fit of anger, a complaint accuses him of plagiarism!

Not only did it demand that the three subsidiaries operated by SHEIN stop selling dumpling buns, but it also demanded 160 million yen in compensation.

Some people accuse plagiarism of bad copy, but a large part of the public says it doesn't matter, thinking that this kind of dumpling bar is all over the street, and I saw it more than ten years ago, questioning whether it is plagiarism?

After all, for many consumers, they don't have the leisure to be a plagiarism judge, whoever is good quality and cheap can buy it, plus dumpling buns do not have a unique brand like luxury brands.

In this regard, SHEIN then issued a statement saying: respect the intellectual property rights of other companies and sincerely accept all complaints.

Although it is not, SHEIN is actually not a first-time offender, and has been sued by many companies such as the American fashion brand Ralph Lauren for copyright infringement before.
