메타버스 내 상표권에 관한 연구

The new trend of mankind created by COVID-19 is non-face-to-face and non-contact untact. We have focused on metabuses that live and work in an untact society and have no time and space constraints, and industries using metabuses are growing rapidly. With the advent of the 4th Industrial Revolution, the mobile environment incorporating ICT technology, high-speed Internet, and high-performance computer information devices have made it possible to realize virtual reality, and in the near future, the world of Metabus is expected to surpass the real world's social, cultural, and economic activities. Many companies are moving their activities to metabus platforms by utilizing the advantages of metabus. Metabus is now approaching a world of virtual reality that we are familiar with. However, there is still no review of side effects or related laws, raising concerns that confusion may arise in the event of rapid development. Accordingly, items used as expressions or transactions of goods implemented in photographs or pictures in the metabus space are presented as designated products and reviewed closely. Therefore, this study is about trademark rights, especially among intellectual property, and the problem within metabuses will have a great influence on the use of trademark rights today, given that industrial activities are expanding into the virtual reality world. Therefore, I would like to examine the application of trademark rights that may arise in the metabus world.
