I actually don't know how common this is, I'd think that maybe some of the fandom knows about it

I love that both songs were pretty iconic in the time they were released, just proofs how big of a bop it is no matter what version

Yep. Lots of cool facts about this song.

First it was a German song. Then it was originally gonna be for SNSD until Sunnny requested they give it to f(x) cause it fit their style more.

Then it finally made it's way to f(x) and is one of their biggest hits of all time. Actually I think it's their highest selling single. Sold even more than Electric Shock.

Yeah, a lot of SM songs are songs from other artist that they bought the rights to.
