MASTERCHEF KOREASerial 98735552 · Principal Register
Pending · Application
Owner: Won, Mi Sook
Class 043 - Restaurant & Hotel Services
Filed Sep 05, 2024
The record shows that “MASTERCHEF KOREA” is a pending service mark owned by Won, Mi Sook, filed on September 5, 2024 and currently suspended pending administrative review as of March 16, 2026. The mark covers a wide range of restaurant and hotel services, including fast‑food restaurants, food trucks, snackbars, and various restaurant and bar services that serve food and drink, especially Korean‑style offerings. A similar name would raise the closest concern in the same food‑service context, particularly for establishments that serve Korean or American‑style cuisine. This record does not give the owner control over every use of the words “Masterchef” or “Korea” in unrelated fields. The prosecution history shows a final refusal in December 2025 followed by a suspension in March 2026; no enforcement actions such as oppositions or cancellations appear. The next consequential event would be the administrative review decision, but no date is supplied. If you’re thinking of a similar name for a restaurant or food‑service business, this history suggests a meaningful risk of conflict.

The way I'd use it, honestly, is as the thing you attach when a bank, a marketplace, or a co-founder asks "are we clear on the name". It answers in one page.
