Reasons

We examine the grounds of appeal.

Article 61 of the Medical Service Act provides that a person who intends to be a inseminator shall obtain the recognition of his/her qualification from the Mayor/Do Governor ( Paragraph (1)); that person may engage in massage business, notwithstanding the provisions of Article 25 ( Paragraph (2)); that person’s recognition of qualification and limit of his/her duties, etc. shall be prescribed by Ordinance of the Ministry of Health and Welfare ( Paragraph (4). Article 67 of the Medical Service Act provides that a person who performs massage for profit without obtaining the recognition of his/her qualification under Article 61(1) shall be punished for committing such act; Meanwhile, Article 2 of the Rules on Madow under Article 61(4) of the Medical Service Act provides that a person who performs physical therapy to his/her human body by taking advantage of all kinds of methods such as massage, marina, dyke pressure, etc., or by using electric appliances, etc. Article 3 of the said Rules shall be limited to a person who has no capacity to obtain the recognition of qualification for Madern’s blood hair, etc., or by taking it into account the name and mass of his/her body.

Examining the evidence adopted by the court of first instance by the court below in light of the above legal principles and the records, the court below's determination that the defendant's act constitutes a case where the defendant performed an act of massage for profit as provided in Article 67 of the Medical Service Act, and there is no error of law by misunderstanding the facts against the rules of evidence as alleged in the grounds for appeal.

On the other hand, the term "obscenity act" under Article 3 subparagraph 1 of the Act on the Regulation of Amusement Businesses Affecting Public Morals refers to an act that stimulates, plays or satisfies a sexual desire, and which damages the general public's normal sense of sexual humiliation and goes against the good sexual morality. In light of the above legal principles and records, the court below's decision that found the defendant guilty of committing a crime that the defendant provided a obscene act at an immigration establishment is just, and there is no error of misconception of the facts against the rules of evidence as alleged.

Therefore, the appeal is dismissed. It is so decided as per Disposition by the assent of all participating Justices on the bench.
