It happened in 2020. One day it looked like a thorn got stuck in the right middle toe and I looked into it closely. But nothing was found there. The pain got worse with the passing of time and later I couldn’t bear whenever my toes touched anything. ...
"I Received Grand Prize in the Patent Part with A God-given Idea"
Senior Partner, Manmin IP & Law and Patent AttorneyElder Nakhoon Seong, age 57, Parish 12, Manmin Central Church
On September 2, 2016, I was given Grand Prize in the 7th Korea Professional Awards Ceremony in the patent section held in the International Conference Room of the Press Center. The Korea Special Press Association gave prizes to experts in 18 areas including politics and administration.
Among countless patent offices including a mega-sized law firm, Manmin IP & Law and Patent Firm grabbed the Grand Prize because we developed a system mediating reciprocal fair trade based on trust and information in international patent applications for the first time in the world.
When I saw my Senior Pastor Dr. Jaerock Lee living an exemplary life of goodness according to the Word in the Bible and witnessed the powerful works manifested by him, I was highly motivated to lead a diligent Christian life. In his endless love and sacrifice, I could achieve the heart of spirit in May 2015.
On August 31, three months later, something mysterious happened during Daniel Prayer Meeting. I was praying for my business as usual. All of a sudden, an idea about an international patent mediation system and the analysis method of big data popped up into my mind.
I immediately made a note, and back at home I tried them with my computer. Surprisingly, a key solution was drawn to analyze all patent deals that happen all over the world.
I had been ignorant of big data and statistics, but I came to easily analyze the data. It was so amazing and inexplicable. There was nothing that can explain the idea but it was given by the grace of God and it was the work of the Holy Spirit.
On September 2, 2015, I applied for the system's patent. And exactly one year later, on September 2, 2016, I received Grand Prize in the patent part. Hallelujah!
Thirteen years ago, I quit my first job in the Korean Intellectual Property Office with longing for God-given blessings and opened a Patent Office in a small place that was about 13.22 square meters. I would like to extend my heartfelt thanks to my Senior Pastor who has comforted me and prayed for me with heart. And, I also give thanks to the workers in the Manmin International Patent Office.
Above all, I give all thanks and glory to the God of love who is alive and answers us according to faith.
