    lol i just found out about this...

    "Korean singer "Ivy" and the production company that handled her upcoming music video is getting a lot of flak from the gamers for her new music video.

    For the new song "Sonata of Temptation," her management co. gave out press release with production stills describing how tough it was for her to go through action based shootings that involved "wire action". Upon seeing the released still shots, gamers picked up the "familiar" set design and the character the famous singer is acting out.

    And that "familiar" set design is straight from Final Fantasy VII: Advent Children. It doesn't kinda look like FFVII, it totally looks like it. So much so that the video includes a disclaimer. According to the video's director, this is just a "parody," and he "wanted to contact Square to get permission but, couldn't find their contact info." Hilarious." - Brian Ashcraft

    lol i guess this is easier then designing your own stuff.... wonder if square-enix will be suing them. oh well... i dont think this is a very good song anyway

    i don't think this was a parody...because the video wasn't trying to make us laugh. the mood that is see between the two characters is pretty serious.

    yeah, agreed. A parody should be making fun of something and I didn't find that funny at all.
