1. The Ministry of Knowledge Economy of Korea (MKE) announced on August 25th, 2008 that the National Standards Committee will implement the new national unified certification mark named "KC mark" from July to February 20th, 2009.
2. The new logo is called KC Mark, which stands for Korean certification. The existing 13 mandatory logo will eventually be unified under this new logo.
3. As a result, suppliers' expenses on certification fees will be reduced, and Korean KC Mark will gradually become a world brand certification. However, there is one drawback. The recently promulgated KCC logo will only be implemented for a few years and will eventually be unified under this new KCC logo.
