An Unknown Individual Living in Gwangju, Applying for Patenting Trademarks with the Name 'Kang Daniel' in English.

Kang Daniel's conflict against his agency, LM Entertainment is still not finished. But there is a new problem that is quite surprising to the public. There is a third party who secretly registered Kang Daniel's name as a trademark.

According to a YTN Star report today, Tuesday (9/4), an unknown individual (subsequently written A) who lives in Gwangju, submitted an application to patent the trademark under the name "Kang Daniel" in English on March 15.

A registers the name trademark for Class 9 (virtual reality game software, interactive video game programs, online game programs, etc.) and Class 41 (runs an event business, entertainment service business, event planning business, etc. )

Lawyer Kang Daniel released a response regarding the report. "Nobody from our side filed the trademark name Kang Daniel. We are trying to find out what actions to take such as appealing to the Korean Intellectual Property Office," said the 1996-born idol lawyer.


Previously, it was revealed that LM Entertainment signed up to the name trademark of Yoon Jisung. But they denied involvement with the issue of registering the name Kang Daniel.

"We are currently unable to apply for trademarks related to Kang Daniel. Since we are in a conflict with Kang Daniel, our management related to entertainment activities has been completely suspended," LM Entertainment commented. "A is not our party. We don't know who that person is."

Meanwhile, Kang Daniel and LM Entertainment were involved in a conflict after the former Wanna One member filed for termination of the contract. Both sides were scheduled to undergo interrogation in court on April 5 but were postponed.
