The summary of this part of the facts charged is that "the defendant obtained property benefits by inputting the information without authority to the vending machine which is the data processing unit, such as computer, etc., by purchasing nine drinking water in an amount of 11,400 won, using the e-mail card, which was 11,400 won, from August 8, 2019."
The object of the crime of fraud by use of computers, etc., which is defined in Article 347-2 of the Criminal Code, is limited to property interests, not property.

The crime of larceny, which takes possession of drinking water against the will of the manager of a vending machine, is established, apart from the establishment of larceny, which takes possession of drinking water under the control of the defendant.
(See Supreme Court Decision 2018Ra3119 Decided February 21, 2019). Furthermore, the Defendant’s property interest that is exempted from the payment of the cost of drinking water that is not actual drinking water.
