A. Plaintiff A’s wife, Plaintiff B, and C are the deceased J’s children, Plaintiff D’s wife (Plaintiff C’s wife), Plaintiff E, and F are the deceased J’s grandchildren (Plaintiff C’s children).

B. The Busan Metropolitan City Mayor, which is the Mayor/Do governor within his jurisdiction pursuant to Article 8(2) of the River Act, is a diversary river in Busan Metropolitan City (hereinafter referred to as the "river in this case") and is responsible for the management of the river as the river management agency (Provided, That it is delegated to the head of Busan Metropolitan City Maritime Transportation Authority by the Busan Metropolitan City Ordinance on the Delegation of Administrative Affairs, such as the maintenance and repair of local rivers and the inspection of the status of river management).

C. On June 3, 2013, around 21:28, the deceased J died on December 25, 2013 (hereinafter “the instant accident”) in the course of being hospitalized at a hospital due to falling down under the bank below approximately 4.6 meters and falling down under around 4.6 meters, and died on June 25, 2013 (hereinafter “the instant accident”). [Grounds for recognition] The fact that there is no dispute, Gap evidence 1, 2, 9 (including each number; hereinafter the same shall apply), Eul evidence 2, or 4, and the purport of the entire pleadings, as a whole, the entire arguments and arguments.

2. Occurrence of liability for damages;

A. According to the above facts, the Mayor of Busan Metropolitan City as a person in charge of the maintenance and management of the river of this case, where causation is acknowledged between the defects in the installation and management of the river of this case and the accident of this case, the defendant, who is a local government to which the Mayor of Busan Metropolitan City belongs, is liable to compensate for such damage under Article 5(1) of the State Compensation Act.

B. The defect in the construction and management of a public structure under Article 5 of the State Compensation Act refers to the defect in the construction and management of the public structure that is incomplete, and thus, it is in a state where the public structure itself does not have safety enough to have ordinary safety (see Supreme Court Decision 94Da32924, Nov. 22, 1994). Whether such safety is satisfied should be determined based on whether the installer or manager of the public structure has fulfilled his/her duty to take protective measures to the extent that is generally required by social norms in proportion to the danger of the public structure (see Supreme Court Decision 2013Da208074, Oct. 24, 2013).

In light of the above legal principles, the following circumstances can be acknowledged by comprehensively considering the entries and images of No. 3, Eul evidence No. 1, Eul evidence No. 1, Eul evidence No. 1, Eul evidence No. 2, 5, 8, and 9 as a result of the first instance court’s on-site inspection, and the overall purport of the pleadings at the court of first instance. In other words, the accident point of this case is limited to the height of concrete protection wall installed in the bank on the name of about 50cm (or about 20cm at a low level) at the 4-5 meters long, which could cause death if a person falls short of the river, and even if the accident point of this case is ordinarily offered to pedestrians’ walking, the pedestrian traffic of this case is relatively frequent due to the underground railroad station No. 1, Eul evidence No. 1, Eul evidence No. 2, 5, 8, and 9, and the first instance court’s on-site inspection.

Therefore, there is a defect in the construction and management of the instant river due to the lack of safety fences, etc. to prevent people from falling, and the instant accident occurred due to such defect, so the Defendant is liable to compensate the damages suffered by the Plaintiffs due to the defect in the construction and management of public structures pursuant to Article 2 of the State Compensation Act.
