The Story
The Korean website, http://www.cutecg.com/
has recently uploaded gesquisseh a work by Misato Mitsumi, a member of an Japanese dojinshi circle, gCut a Dashh on its website. Not only http://www.cutecg.com/
has uploaded her works without permission, it has claimed copyrights to it. Currently Misato Mitsumi and her fans are enraged by the response(written below) of the Korean website and there are arguments

The Korean Response
Below is the translated text from the Korean website
*English grammar errors on the site is left in tact.
It is site for Korean. Japanese leaves!
gEsquisseh is an@work by gcut a dushh and gcut a dushh does have the right to gesquisseh.
However, for gcut a dashh to file suits for compensation, gcut a dushh must suffer losses or I must profit from it. Since gesquisseh has not been officially released in Korea, even if it had been sold, gcut a dushh does not have the right to sue us. Also in this case, I have not profited from marketing and even though this is an .com domain, this is an personal webpage and its contents are non-violent and non-pornographic so there should not have been any negative impact to gcut a dashh.
Thus, even if gcut a dashh sued us for an international suit, I will only delete the uploaded dojinshi and will not hold any responsibility to compensate for losses.
Another factor that is important here is that gcut a dashh have not presented us any problems. Despite that fact, if worthless beings fooling around in ?tai/otaku sites are going to come to my website saying copyrights or whatever and attack my website half joking, I cannot agree to their actions. No, I will not accept it. You all who have intentionally uploaded pornography on my website and placed a heavy load on my website will be claimed responsible for halting my website.
And before you start making fusses to foreign countiesf doujinshi sites, I would like to ask you to do something with those freakish websites in which hentaiEotakus gather around. The filth of those websites are spreading in Korea and we are troubled by it.
Those who are strict to others and not to themselves are called hypocrites and trash.
My final comment, this is a website for those with moral values.
Not for humans like you all.
Thatfs it from me.
