DOKKEBIJUDAN published a photo book for commercial purpose using photos of

SWITCH's dolls, MILHWA, HAWHA AND MORI as models without a prior consent from SWTICH. The moderator of DEN OF ANGEL notified DOKKEBIJUDAN of this issue.

DOKKEBIJUDAN have sent a written apology to SWITCH and

this apology is upon mutual agreement between DOKKAEBIJUDAN and SWITCH.

 

 

1.

SWITCH allows using their dolls for commercial use online, only limited to BJD related merchants. However, prior agreement with Switch is necessary for printed materials.

Although there is no license fee,

there must be a copyright (provided by SWITCH) on top or bottom of the printed photograph.

 

2.

This incident occurred because DOKKEBIJUDAN published books for commercial use

without prior consent with SWITCH.

This publication, EUISANGCHUP, is already sold and shipped out,

therefore it is not possible to put copyright in the book.

 

3.

It was the first time that DOKKEBIJUDAN ever created a commercial publication

and this was an insufficient treatment of copyright.

DOKKEBIIJUDAN sincerely apologizes and

we promise that there will be no more issues like this in the future.
