Additional note:
The only names tied to this trademark application is the name of the law firm and the patent attorney, Hwang Boui. It's unclear which party these people are working with.— 에린 ♡ 휘찬 (@hwicetag) November 13, 2022
Hwang, the chairman of Spire Entertainment registered “OMEGA X” as Spire Entertainment Trademark last Nov 7
Meaning, the name “OMEGA X” is now belong to Spire Ent. If they ever leave the company, they will not be able to get their name as OMEGA X + #PROTECTOMEGAX #OMEGAX pic.twitter.com/xIUFB5tv2I

Many FOR X (fans of OMEGA X) suspected that Spire Entertainment was responsible for the sudden trademarking, and it was a method to keep the members as part of the group and company despite the abuse scandal.
i think it means that spire, omega x’s company, are trying to force the omega x members to stay with them by copyrighting their group name – meaning that noone else can use it. they are trying to stop the members from speaking out about mistreatment, basically

Yet, another FOR X pointed out that the Hwang mentioned in the application is not Spire Entertainment Chairman Hwang Seong Woo. It’s actually Hwang Bo Ui, an agent from the Patent and Trademark Office.

Now, it’s been revealed that OMEGA X have legal representatives, S Law Firm, who have been confirmed to accompany them at an upcoming press conference about Spire Entertainment’s abuse scandal. Korean media confirmed that it is actually the members themselves, through their legal representatives, that applied for trademark registration.
According to the trademark registration inquiry of the Korean Intellectual Property Office, the application for trademark rights was applied for both OMEGA X’s Korean and English group names as well as the fandom name “FOR X” on November 7. This was the same day Spire Entertainment CEO Kang Seong Hee, who abused the members, allegedly resigned from her position.
FOR X noticed that even the “#PROTECTOMEGAX” hashtag was registered with the group and fandom names. This is the official hashtag used by both the group and fandom to bring awareness to the abuse and mistreatment they’ve faced at the hands of Spire Entertainment.

I remember when we didn’t have a fandom name and hangyeom was live and someone asked about it and he said they were taking their time because they wanted to make sure they had a pretty name for us ☹️#PROTECTOMEGAX
