A popular "Baby Shark" song that South Korea's young children adore and their parents often find annoying is not plagiarized, South Korea's highest court ruled.

South Korea’s Supreme Court has rejected a 30 million won damage claim by an American composer who accused a South Korean kids content company of plagiarizing his version of “Baby Shark.”

The judges found “Baby Shark” was based on a nursery rhyme, dismissing the six-year case of U.S. entertainer Johnny Only that centered on his 2011 version.
