IPOS will be publishing a legal decision involving the trade mark of one of the newest K-pop girl groups, BabyMonster.
YG Entertainment, the South Korean entertainment agency behind one of the newest K-pop girl groups, BabyMonster, has won a trade mark case against global giant in the energy drinks industry, Monster Energy. Monster Energy had opposed the trade mark registration of “BABYMONSTER” / “BABYMONSTERS” on the grounds of confusing similarity and passing off.
Monster Energy had also unsuccessfully opposed another mark “Gentle Monsters” recently. The legal decision was published here earlier this week.
Let us know if you’re keen to report on either decisions, thanks!
