Controversy
The group's label Sony Music Taiwan encountered controversy in October 2002 when South Korean media noted the similarities between the song "Everywhere" () and the popular Korean song "Love and Remember" (), which was originally recorded by K-pop group g.o.d in 1999 as part of their second album and was composed by their producer Park Jin-young. Park filed a lawsuit against Sony Music Taiwan, stating that the song had been remade without his permission. Sony Music Taiwan disputed the case on the grounds that they had purchased the rights from Universal Music, as "Love and Remember" was partly based on Curtis McKonly's arrangement of the Christmas carol "The First Noel". The case was eventually settled out of court when Park was paid compensation by Sony Music Taiwan as they used Park's arrangement of the song. Sales
