The defendant's appeal is dismissed.

Reasons

1. Summary of grounds for appeal;

A. misunderstanding of facts or misunderstanding of legal principles as to the purchase of "gsh", which is the game money of the Internet game site, and then acquired profits by selling it. Since the money paid by the Defendant to the clients is merely the purchase price of "gnch" and the Defendant cannot be deemed as the interest on the trade difference acquired by selling "gnch", the above act of the Defendant cannot be deemed as "loan", and on the other hand, the "gnch" purchased from the clients cannot be deemed as "goods or services" under the Act on Promotion of Information and Communications Network Utilization and Information Protection, Etc., and therefore, the above act of the Defendant cannot be established as a violation of Article 72 (1) 4 (b) of the Act

Nevertheless, the court below erred by misunderstanding the facts charged or by misunderstanding the legal principles, which affected the conclusion of the judgment.

B. The sentence imposed by the lower court on the Defendant (two months of imprisonment, two years of suspended execution, and four million won of fine) is too unreasonable.
