The producers of Little Women have issued an apology after allegedly stealing their poster design. The poster shows the show’s three sisters – In-joo, In-kyung and In-hye – heading towards an unknown location. This poster looks a lot like the one released in 2016 by Shiseido, an Asian cosmetics company that distributes mainly in the United States and Europe. Fans noticed the similarities and took to social media to express their opinions on the posters. Many fans flocked to Korean internet discussion forums to point out that the poster was not only influenced by the original 2016 release, but also copied some of the same motifs, such as like light and dark tones.
The audience praised Little Women
The producers of tvN K-drama revealed in a short statement,
“As an announcement poster for the film, the poster shows the three sisters moving towards a better future.” After much discussion, the design team produced the poster. We’ll be more thorough in the future and make sure this doesn’t happen again.”
It sucks for a show that gets a positive response from the audience. The plot revolves around the lives of three sisters and how they escape their tragic fate. Currently, the show focuses on In-joo and In-Kyung. Their professional lives will collide when the two learn that there is a connection between the death of an accountant at the former company and the latter’s theft investigation.
And yet, the only instruction the program gave was that green orchids appeared everywhere. Furthermore, In-joo’s helper, Choi Do-il (Wi Ha-joon), appears to be an associate of mayoral candidate Park Jae-sang (Uhm Ki-joon). It remains to be seen whether the three sisters will overcome the various difficulties in Little Women. For example, in the next episode, In-Kyung will try to stop her sister In-joo from reclaiming the 2 billion Won that her late colleague left her.
Fan reaction to Little Women’s plagiarism allegations translated.
Since most of the answers in the thread are in Korean, here is a short translation of some of them. One of the fans expressed concern that the open copying of intellectual materials has increased recently, threatening the country’s rich cultural heritage.
#Little woman is the advertising target of cosmetic brand SHISEIDO.
The producer shared: — “O poster teaser com o conceito de 3 irmãs e caminhando em direção a um lugar brillante. E a creación da empresa pelo design depois de revisar varias trabalhos.” pic.twitter.com/wUHAxJwKsc

Another fan pointed out that the similarities don’t just stop at the idea and style, but the costumes of the three main characters in Little Women are also compared to the original poster.
