The name of the their products are the same as the one downtown (terimayo etc)....if i remember correct, that tall skinny nerdy dude even boasted how his tasted better than japadog......i tried it, and for 4~5 dollars....i even laughed at myself for being so dumb as to think it may come close in taste.

plagrism is if they called it japadog as well
it would be more like a replica, which means its similar, but not the same as the original

Well, they do call theirs Terrimayo (vs. Terimayo) and Oroshi (same name).
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.
