[Note] In this case, we submitted information on behalf of our client Gino Corporation arguing that the application should be rejected under Article 34(1)(xiii) of the Trademark Act, because the client's "SHAKA WEAR" clothing brand is recognized in Korea and abroad as indicating the source of a specific party's goods and the application was filed as a close imitation of it. The information was submitted in October 2020, and a final rejection was issued in May 2021.
