The defendant's appeal is dismissed.

Reasons

1. Objects of adjudication of this Court;

A. Of the facts charged against the Defendant, the lower court found the Defendant guilty of violating the Act on the Aggravated Punishment, etc. of Specific Economic Crimes (Fraud) with regard to the following facts: “The Defendant, by deceiving victims and making the victims settle the business expenses, such as entertainment expenses, transportation expenses, and goods purchase expenses, in Vietnam, and thereby making the victims pay the card in the name of each victim instead of the total amount of KRW 48,649,878 as stated in the attached list of crimes 3 of the lower judgment by allowing the victims to pay the card in the name of each victim.”

(see, e.g., Supreme Court Decisions 2004Do5014, Oct. 28, 2004; 2009Do12934, Jan. 14, 2010). Therefore, with respect to the part on acquittal, the reasoning of the lower judgment ought to be followed, and the court did not render a separate judgment.

B. The lower court dismissed the application for compensation order B by the applicant for compensation.

In such cases, no applicant for compensation shall file an objection pursuant to Article 32 (4) of the Act on Special Cases concerning the Promotion, etc. of Legal Proceedings.

A. As to the violation of the Act on the Aggravated Punishment, etc. of Specific Economic Crimes (Fraud), the Defendant recommended the victims to make an investment in theme park project.
