In this paper, we treat the weakly damped, forced KdV equation on $\dot{H}^s$. We are interested in the lower bound of $s$ to assure the existence of the global attractor. The KdV equation has infinite conservation laws, each of which is defined in $H^j(j\in\mathbb Z, j\ge 0)$. The existence of the global attractor is usually proved by using those conservation laws. Because the KdV equation on $\dot{H}^s$ has no conservation law for $s<0$, it seems a natural question whether we can show the existence of the global attractor for $s<0$. Moreover, because the conservation laws restrict the behavior of solutions, the time global behavior of solutions for $s<0$ may be different from that for $s\ge 0$. By using a modified energy, we prove the existence of the global attractor for $s > -3/8$, which is identical to the global attractor for $s \ge 0$.
