Protection of calligraphers’ rights and interests and response to copyright infringement cases

As digital technology develops and unauthorized copying of creative works increases, professional response to protect copyright has become more urgent. There are many people who are not even aware of the copyright of handwritten designs, so more attention is needed.

Daeryun Law Firm announced on the 2nd that it signed an MOU with the Korea Calligraphy Design Association last June.

The MOU signing ceremony held in the Daeryun headquarters Park One conference room was attended by Daeryun CEO Go Byeong-jun, attorney Ji Min-hee, Korea Calligraphy Design Association Chairman Kim Seong-tae, Vice Chairman Lee Sang-hyeon, and Oh Min-jun, as well as other officials.

The Korea Calligraphy Design Association is an organization founded in 2008 to expand the base of calligraphy and develop culture. We are promoting Korean calligraphy culture through calligraphy and helping domestic calligraphers start businesses, get jobs, and advance to higher education.

Through this agreement, Daeryun Law Firm plans to provide legal advice to the Korea Calligraphy Design Association on calligraphy copyright and protection of calligraphers' rights and interests.

Specifically, ▲advice on the introduction of the Calligraphy Association's certification system ▲support for copyright registration and protection of works ▲preparation of response plans for cases of illegal copying and copyright infringement.

Kim Seong-tae, Chairman of the Board of Directors of the Calligraphy Association, said, "Recently, unauthorized copying of calligraphy works by converting them to digital format has become widespread. In calligraphy, it is most important to prevent copyright infringement issues and protect the rights of creators. We will protect the rights and interests of calligraphers through Daeryun's legal advice."

Daeryun CEO Go Byeong-jun said, "We are happy to work with the Korea Calligraphy Design Association, which is leading the Korean calligraphy culture. With the development of the Internet and digital technology, various forms of content are being created and distributed rapidly. Accordingly, cases of copyright infringement are also increasing. Daeryun Law Firm will protect the rights of creators by providing professional legal services for copyright protection."

Daeryun Law Firm recently moved its headquarters to Yeouido and is expanding and reorganizing its corporate legal group to strengthen its intellectual property group and entertainment and sports group.
