A South Korean chicken shop was accused of infringement. In April 14th, a court in South Korea made a judgement on a fried chicken store in Seoul.

The owner of the shop uses it.

The name, as a shop name, was fined 14 million 500 thousand won (about 82 thousand and 700 yuan) after being banned by the court.

According to Agence France-Presse, the shop owner is named Kim, and the restaurant he opened in Seoul is called "Louis Vuiton Dak".

Dak refers to the word "tongdak" in Korean.

In addition to the shop name, the paper towel and the Logo on the cassette on the store are almost the same as those of "Louis Vuitton".

Because of dissatisfaction with Kim's behavior, in September of last year, Louis Vuitton sent him to court on the grounds that he sold the fried chicken with the name of a company without any damage to the brand name.

In October, the Seoul district court ordered Kim to terminate the act. If he did not comply with the decision, he would pay a fine (at 500 thousand won / day).

After that, Kim changed the name of the restaurant to "chaLouisvui tondak", but Louis Vuitton considered the name to be too similar.

The court ruled that Kim paid 14 million 500 thousand yuan to the brand - the 29 day penalty.

In response, the Korea Times said: "although they changed their names with different letter intervals, they both sound almost the same."
