The judgment of the court below is reversed.

Defendant shall be punished by a fine of five million won.

The above fine shall not be paid by the defendant.

Reasons

1. Summary of grounds for appeal;

A. It is true that the defendant misunderstanding of facts and misunderstanding of legal principles driving alcohol, such as the written facts charged in the instant case.

However, at the time, the Defendant was subject to intimidation such as “I wish to kill,” etc. from E and forced to drive the Defendant to escape therefrom, which constitutes an emergency evacuation or a justifiable act.

Nevertheless, the court below convicted the defendant of the facts charged in this case. The court below erred by misapprehending the legal principles as to whether the defendant was guilty or whether the defendant was guilty of an emergency escape or a legitimate act, which affected the conclusion of the judgment.

B. Even if the sentencing is not unfair, in light of the background of the Defendant’s drinking driving, etc., the sentence imposed by the lower court (10 million won) is too unreasonable.
