2. The circumstances favorable to the accused include the fact that the accused makes a confession of the crime, the fact that there is no other criminal records except two fines, and the fact that the accused appears to have made efforts to recover the checks in arrears before the judgment of the first instance is rendered.

However, in full view of the various sentencing conditions indicated in the instant case, including the Defendant’s age, occupation, motive for the commission of an offense, relationship between the Defendant and the victims, means and consequence of an offense, the remaining amount of face value of a check that has not been recovered exceeds KRW 91 million, it cannot be deemed that the lower court’s punishment is too unreasonable.

3. In conclusion, the defendant's appeal is dismissed in accordance with Article 364 (4) of the Criminal Procedure Act since it is without merit. It is so decided as per Disposition.
