What this record means
The record shows a live, pending application for the mark SMILING JINDO owned by Khi Hyun Kim, filed on September 19 2025 and currently under examination in the Principal Register. The goods listed are “Clothing, namely, infant and children’s bibs not of paper, t‑shirts and hoodies” in International Class 025, so a similar name used on comparable apparel would be the closest area of concern; uses on unrelated products would be farther from the scope shown here. The record does not give the owner control over every possible use of the words “SMILING JINDO.” The prosecution history indicates that an examiner issued a suspension letter and entered an amendment on April 6 2026, which is the most recent substantive status event; no later maintenance or renewal dates are provided. The supplied history contains no oppositions, cancellations or court actions, so there are no visible enforcement signals. I'd treat this as a meaningful concern if you plan a clothing line with a comparable name.
