A around August 2010, Defendant A proposed an international cruise ship operation project for tourism purposes (hereinafter “instant project”) with Jeju-do as the main port, and B had the role of raising administrative and financial support for the instant project, and A decided to take charge of practical affairs, such as attracting investors in the instant project, and A had the position of a substantial representative of “D” (hereinafter “D”) of the Dormant corporation, to carry out the instant project on April 25, 201.

However, in the situation where it is necessary to realize the instant project, at the time, approximately KRW 40 billion ($ 35,400,000) from the initial fund, such as vessel leasing expenses, etc., the Defendants attempted to attract outside investors without their own capital to raise funds, but did not intend to attract investments from domestic institutional investors on July 201, but failed to do so.
Accordingly, the Defendants decided to attract investment from individuals who are not institutional investors, and the attraction of such investment was decided by Defendant B. Defendant A prepared a document stating that “The amount of investment in the instant project reaches a total of KRW 41.2 billion, including KRW 2.45 billion,” to be used in attracting individual investors, and provided the document stating “D Investment and Equity Interest” to B.
