2. Determination
A. Fraud is established by deceiving another person to receive property or gain profits from property by taking advantage of the defective expression of intent that may be caused by the deception. The deception as a requirement for fraud refers to the active passive act that has to have mutual faith and sincerity in property transaction. Whether a certain act constitutes deception that causes a mistake of another person is determined objectively by taking into account the situation of transaction, other party's knowledge, experience, occupation, and other specific circumstances at the time of the act (see, e.g., Supreme Court Decision 91Do2746, Mar. 10, 192). In particular, it is common sense that a seller notifies a buyer of the asset value or profitability of a company in trading the company, and if the director exceeds the permissible level in light of the ordinary commercial practices and the good faith principle, it is unlawful.
