Hello, while watching the news I suddenly became curious, so I am asking a question…! I have heard the term intellectual property rights, but I am not sure exactly what it refers to. I heard that things like patents, trademarks, and copyrights are included, but I would like to know specifically what types there are. I would be grateful if an expert or an intellectual property rights attorney could give me a quick answer!!

Intellectual property rights are rights to protect creative works and ideas, and they can be broadly divided into industrial property rights, copyright, and new intellectual property rights.
First, industrial property rights mainly apply to creative works related to industrial activity, and they include patent rights, utility model rights, design rights, and trademark rights.
Second, copyright is a right granted to creative works such as literature, music, art, and film, and it includes author's economic rights, author's moral rights, and the like.
Third, new intellectual property rights are a concept that emerged newly with the development of digital technology, and they cover creative works that are difficult to protect under existing systems, such as semiconductors, semiconductor layout designs, and genetic resources.
These rights play an important role in protecting creators' rights and encouraging creative activity.
Intellectual property rights can be said to be a specialized field that requires consideration beyond mere registration of rights, extending to setting the scope of rights, determining whether infringement exists, and legal response strategies.
If the registration of a right is rejected by mistake or you infringe another's rights, the company can suffer great loss, so it is advisable to receive the assistance of an intellectual property rights attorney from the early stage, so please take note.
