Headnotes by the Editorial Office 1. The mere fact that a similar trademark is used for alcoholic drinks in foreign countries does not suffice for revocation of the trademark registration on the ground of violating ethical and religious codes or public order. 2. Under the circumstances where the foreign company using a similar trademark for alcoholic drinks cannot operate in the country in question, public deception and unfair competition are ruled out.
