The judgment of the court below is reversed.

Defendant shall be punished by a fine of five million won.

The above fine shall not be paid by the defendant.

Reasons

1. Summary of grounds for appeal;

A. In a situation where the misunderstanding of the legal principle does not clearly explain how the victim fell away from the sea due to any mistake, the omission that the defendant did not force the wearing of the life jackets on the ground that the crew inconveniences alone cannot prevent the defendant from committing a crime of occupational negligence.

In addition, it is doubtful whether the victim would not have died if he/she had a life jackets worn.

B. The sentence sentenced by the court below to the defendant (the imprisonment without prison labor for eight months and the suspension of execution for two years) is too unreasonable.

2. Determination

A. As to the assertion of misunderstanding of legal principles, the crime of occupational negligence in Article 268 of the Criminal Act, which is established when a defendant is liable for occupational negligence, is committed when the death is caused by occupational negligence, refers to a case where the occurrence of the consequence is not predicted or avoided by neglecting the duty of care required for occupational negligence.
