2. Determination

A. In light of the difference between the first instance court and the appellate court’s method of evaluating the credibility of a statement made by a witness of the first instance court in accordance with the spirit of substantial direct cross-examination adopted by the Korean Criminal Procedure Act, if there are extenuating circumstances to deem that the first instance court clearly erred in the determination of the credibility of a statement made by a witness of the first instance, or in light of the results of the first instance court’s examination and the results of the evidence examination additionally made up until the time of closing argument, the appellate court should not reverse the first instance court’s determination on the credibility of a statement made by a witness of the first instance solely on the ground that the first instance court’s determination on the credibility of a statement made by a witness of the first instance differs from the judgment made by the appellate court (see, e.g., Supreme Court Decision 2011Do5313, Jun. 14, 2012).

Although the court below also asserted the same purport as the above reasons for appeal, the court below held the witness I and J respectively, and set forth the third time.
