Regulations on the Handling of Objections

The purpose of these Regulations is to establish procedural justice by handling, fairly and promptly, objections that may arise in all competition and exhibition procedures organized by the Asian Society of Calligraphic Arts (hereinafter the "Society").

These Regulations apply to all competitions and exhibition projects that the Society hosts, organizes, or operates under entrustment.

1. An objection must be filed within seven days from the date of the official announcement of the results.

2. Where a separate deadline is specified in the call for entries (공모요강) of an individual project, that deadline shall apply first.

An objection shall, as a principle, be filed in writing (by email or through the designated form), and must necessarily include the following.

• Personal information: Name, contact information, reception number (or entry division)

• Subject matter: The specific item or procedure to which the objection is raised

• Grounds and basis: Specific reasons based on objective facts (submission of evidence is recommended)

• Requests: Specific requests, such as correction, confirmation of facts, or re-review

Filing channels

• Email: info@orientalcalligraphy.org

• Telephone: 0502-5550-8700 (Even when filed by telephone, the required items above must be submitted in writing.)

1. Acknowledgment of receipt: A notice of receipt is sent within 24 business hours of filing.

2. First response: The progress of the review is shared within three business days from the date of filing.

3. Final response: The final decision is officially notified within 14 business days from the date of filing. (However, where specialized re-verification is required, the period may be extended, and the reason for the delay shall be notified in advance.)

1. Procedural errors: Administrative mistakes in reception, omission, or announcement shall be checked immediately and corrected.

2. Factual errors: Errors in entrant information or work information shall be corrected after verification of evidence.

3. Verification requests: Where a request is made for verification of on-site calligraphy results or comparison with original works, re-verification may be conducted under a resolution of the Judging Panel or the Steering Committee.

The Society may decline to accept an objection in the following cases.

• Where the prescribed filing period has passed

• Where required information is missing, making review impossible

• Where the objection is a mere complaint about a Judge's subjective evaluation (score)

• Where there are baseless slander, personal attacks, or a clear purpose of obstructing business
