ITZY's latest song is under fire among Taylor Swift's fandom because of plagiarism

This is their latest song
ITZY's latest song currently becomes in talk among Korean and International fans for sounding similar to Taylor Swift's Love Story that was released back in 2008.
There are opinions saying that ITZY only used Taylor Swift's song as a sample. There are no articles posted about this matter. Even though it's just a sample, they should've credited Taylor Swift because she's a singer-songwriter. For example, Olivia Rodrigo used Taylor Swift's song as a sample and she put her name in the credits.
There is a high potential that ITZY used Taylor Swift's song as a sample since they're under the same label overseas. Taylor was originally under Big Machine before she separated and created Taylor's Nation. However, all of her songs were written by Taylor herself or either collaborated. Therefore, Taylor has the master rights to her songs. I'm just very confused right now.

1. [+149][-12] Taylor only gave permission for her songs to be sampled onceㅋㅋㅋ And she gave that permission to Olivia Rodrigo. Blackpink also officially asked for permission from Taylor's label for their lyrics.
2. [+138][-12] I'm not a fan of both artists, but it's so f*cking similarㅋㅋㅋ
3. [+128][-6] Taylor even received a Grammy award for that song, there's no way that ITZY is not giving her the credits. Taylor has the master rights to her songs, every artists who sampled her songs put her name in the credits.
4. [+119][-16] It's really similar, though...? No wonder why Taylor's fans are accusing them of plagiarism...
5. [+72][-2] I've been a fan of Taylor Swift for 13 years. Everyone in the fandom is just as confused. We have no idea if it's actually plagiarised or not. I hope JYP will release feedback as soon as possible. Note: I'm not angry at ITZY, I'm angry at JYP.
