Would be the same issue if I started a burger joint and sold burgers with two all beef patties, special sauce, lettuce, cheese, pickles, onions on a sesame seed bun and called it Big Mac.
Not sure if technically whether its a "knockoff" or plagarism or replica, but it certainly isn't the most legit of business practices.
I called it knockoff coz it sounds the most absurd for food, and most fitting for the Night Market.

Terimayo and oroshi are both just names like ketchup and mustard. It's just like how every izakaya calls deep fried shrimp with mayo based sauce ebimayo. Not really a big deal.
Now if the name of the booth was Japandog or something like that, then that's pretty bad lol.
