The defendant's appeal is dismissed.
Reasons
1. Summary of grounds for appeal;

B. The Defendant sent text messages to the victim C and the above victim during the process of protesting against the issue of wages, which is the head of the educational institute that employs himself, which is a justifiable act that does not go against social norms, and is not an offense.
(c)
The punishment of the court below (2 million won) which is unfair in sentencing is too unreasonable.
2. Determination
