Text
We reverse the original judgment.

Reasons
The grounds of appeal by the plaintiff's attorney are examined.
The judgment below rejected the plaintiff's claim for divorce, which is the reason why the defendant did not know the plaintiff's whereabouts while the plaintiff was in contact with the defendant, and other persons who did not know the plaintiff's whereabouts. It is argued that Gap's testimony No. 2 was consistent with this, but the defendant's testimony of Lee Jong-young's witness at the court of first instance could not be believed in its entirety, and it is hard to find that the plaintiff's act of breaking out the plaintiff's desire to escape from the plaintiff's judgment, and that the plaintiff's mental harm was no more than that of the plaintiff's mental harm because the plaintiff's act of breaking out the plaintiff's desire to escape from the plaintiff's judgment, and that the court below's act of breaking out the plaintiff's mental harm cannot be seen as a serious reason to acknowledge that the plaintiff's act of breaking out the plaintiff's desire to get a divorce. However, the court below's act of breaking out the plaintiff's mental harm as the plaintiff's defendant did not have any other reasons.
