New TW Drama 'P.S. Man' Is Accused Of Copying German Film 'Rabbit Without Ears'

Written by: KAY@kays-entertainment.blogspot.com

SETTV's "P.S. Man" is set to release right after "Autumn's Concerto," but netizens are already attacking it online, accusing its costume and plot is copied from a 2007 German film "Rabbit Without Ears" ("Keinohrhasen"). Let's take a look at the comparison chart:

Rabbit Without Ears
  • Because he crashed an upper-class party accidentally, male lead has to do a 300hr community service at a day-care facility, where the female lead works.
  • The male lead is female lead's childhood rival that he always picks on her. She plans to make her revenge during his visit.
  • Female lead's look is composed of a big framed glasses and long hair.
P.S. Man
  • Because he crashed a movie premier event, male lead Blue Lan has to do a 158hr community service at a kindergarten, where the female lead Sonia Sui works.
  • Blue Lan is Sonia Sui's childhood rival that he always picks on her. She plans to make her revenge during his visit.
  • Sonia Sui's look is composed of a big framed glasses and long hair.
As you can see, everything is at least 90% alike. And the explanation SETTV gave to netizens?--"We never watch nor know about this German movie before when we were discussing the plot. Maybe our screen writers looked at many sources when thinking about the plot, but we didn't copy anything."
