Examiner Hyung Sub Sough has allowed 3 of 22 decided applications (14%) in Computer Architecture, Software, and Information Security.
Hyung Sub Sough maintains a public record in Technology Center 2100 (Computer Architecture, Software, and Information Security) spanning two art units: 2192 and 2194. Across 22 disposed applications, the examiner's allowance rate is 14%, with 3 allowed and 19 abandoned applications. This pooled figure represents the aggregate outcome across both art units and describes the historical record of decided cases. The allowance rate reflects the percentage of applications that received a final decision (allowed or abandoned), excluding any pending matters.
A pooled record aggregates outcomes across multiple art units into a single historical snapshot. The allowance rate of 14% is computed from all decided applications across both art units combined and does not forecast the outcome of any specific application. Aggregate statistics describe past dispositions and serve as context for understanding an examiner's record; they are not predictions about individual cases or subject matter within TC 2100.
These are aggregate statistics from this examiner's past public record — not predictions about any specific application. The per-art-unit figures below show how the record varies across art units. Our approach to patent prosecution →
Each section benchmarks this examiner against that art unit's average. Figures are this examiner's own public record within the art unit; the overall rate above pools them.
Primarily examines program control and execution.

Methodology. This page pools every art unit in which Examiner Hyung Sub Sough has a public record within Technology Center 2100. Statistics are computed from publicly available USPTO records, refreshed on a recurring schedule. This page's data was last updated June 25, 2026. The overall allowance rate is total allowed divided by total decided applications (allowed plus abandoned) across all art units — not an average of the per-art-unit rates; pending applications are excluded. Figures are rounded for display. Pooled sample: 22 applications.

These statistics describe past examiner behavior and do not predict the outcome of any particular application. Past results do not guarantee future outcomes. Where this page compares an examiner's allowance rate to an art-unit average, that comparison is a factual description of the public record, not a characterization of any individual examiner's conduct or competence.
