Therefore; To grasp trademark infringement from the point of view of the subject, it seems more beneficial to understand the relationship between the subject, the right of action and the responsibility.

 

 

 

A trademark is an important property of a company or enterprise, an important sign to distinguish it from other goods, and one of the most important ways for users to identify it, but the acquisition of a trademark must go through the prescribed procedures to obtain, so that other companies can not infringe on the registered trademark of the company.
