Of the facts charged in the instant case, 1 to 721 set forth in the attached list of crimes.

Reasons

1. Summary of grounds for appeal;

A. misunderstanding of facts and misunderstanding of legal principles are independent corporations that have separate entities from Defendant B Co., Ltd. (hereinafter “B”), and it is impossible for the Defendants to report deposit transactions between Hong Kong and Hong Kong to the heads of designated foreign exchange banks.

In addition, since Defendant A was a director of the Hong Kong corporations, he cannot be punished as joint penal provisions, since he was involved in the above deposit transactions.

Of the facts charged in the instant case, the part No. 1-721 of the attached Table No. 1-721, among the charges of this case, shall be acquitted as the statute of limitations has lapsed, and thus, the judgment of acquittal shall be rendered. Since the part No. 722-1, 452, which is the basis for the amount subject to punishment, does not constitute an unreported capital transaction exceeding one billion won or five billion

B. The lower court’s sentence of unreasonable sentencing (the Defendant’s each fine of KRW 70 million) is too unreasonable.
