The defendant's appeal is dismissed.

1. The decision of the court below on the summary of the grounds for appeal (5 million won of a fine) is too unreasonable.

2. The Defendant recognized the instant crime and repented of the mistake.

However, perjury is an offense that interferes with the proper judicial functions of the State and damages the people’s trust in the judiciary and trial, and requires strict punishment corresponding thereto. Although the Defendant’s false statement seems to have a significant impact on the conclusion of the relevant criminal case against A, it is not responsible in light of the fact that it is a major part of the above case.

In addition, comprehensively taking account of the Defendant’s age, character and conduct, environment, motive, means and consequence of the instant crime, circumstances after the instant crime, and criminal records, it is not recognized that the sentence imposed by the lower court is too unreasonable.

3. The defendant's appeal is without merit and thus dismissed pursuant to Article 364 (4) of the Criminal Procedure Act. It is so decided as per Disposition.
