I received an Office Action after filing a design application — which form should I use?

If you receive an Office Action (notice of grounds for rejection) after filing a design application, you may submit a written opinion or an amendment. A written opinion is used to state the applicant's opinion, while an amendment is submitted to correct or delete the contents of the design application that the applicant has filed.

When submitting such a written opinion or amendment, you may download the "Written Opinion" or "Drawing Amendment" form from the civil-petition forms section of the KIPO (Korean Intellectual Property Office) website and prepare it, or you may prepare it using electronic filing software.
