Daeryun Law Firm announced on the 11th that it has carried out a large-scale update of ‘AI Daeryun’, which was introduced in January, and has appointed an expert who oversaw the practical work of developing AI-based legal services as its next CEO. The goal is to go beyond introducing cutting-edge technology and take the lead in the coming legal tech era by aligning technology and management. AI Daeryun is a legal artificial intelligence program that analyzes and reviews customers' questions and provides fast and accurate legal information. The core of this update is to fundamentally change the way it operates by reorganizing the ‘AI Agent’-based structure into an ‘Agentic AI’ structure. Agentic AI has self-directed problem-solving capabilities, such as processing multiple tasks sequentially and in parallel to solve a given goal, and revising the path by reviewing intermediate results. This advanced judgment ability was completed by learning the Sentencing Commission's 2025 Sentencing Guidelines, the Supreme Court's public rulings, the Korean Patent Attorneys Association's precedents and trials, Legal Aid Corporation's legal counseling cases, the High School's rules, regulations, and precedents, and Daeryun's own content and case data. Thanks to this, more specific questions and answers became possible. A Daeryun official explained, “We have improved the ability to search vast amounts of data faster than the existing AI Daeryun, allowing users to consult with lawyers while acquiring basic knowledge.” He added, “We plan to continue to improve accuracy and effectiveness by linking internal judgment data with AI in the future.” Daeryun also launched a dedicated mobile app ‘MY Daeryun’ to strengthen communication with clients and provide more convenient legal services. MY Daeryun is an integrated platform that manages cases more systematically and provides customized content of interest to clients. Through MY Daeryun, clients can check the progress of their cases anytime, anywhere and easily use the necessary legal services. Daeryun expects that through this, it will be able to implement client-centered customized services and provide faster and more efficient legal services. Meanwhile, on the 4th, Daeryun appointed lawyer Choi Lee-seon (Training Institute 47th class) as co-representative to accelerate AI Legal Tech innovation. This is to respond to the era of legal tech by entrusting the keys of management to experts with a high level of understanding of AI technology. Until his appointment as co-CEO, CEO Choi served concurrently as the head of Daeryun's Corporate Advisory Center and the head of the AI ​​Innovation Department. From building a contract automation system using AI to developing a LegalTech solution and designing an internal business innovation system, we directly designed and implemented the core tasks of AI transformation. CEO Yi-seon Choi said, "The value that advanced law firms must provide to companies should not remain in a passive role of managing potential risks. We will proactively introduce new technologies such as AI and move toward 'value and profit-generating legal services' that provide strategic consulting for corporate growth."

An anonymous post that was recently posted on a lawyer community caused a great shock to the legal community as a whole. The content was that some law firms were using personnel from former investigative agencies to not only take on cases but also intervene in their processing and results, and were even offering money or valuables to correctional facility insiders or inmates to attract cases or block correspondence as a means of interfering with the business of competing lawyers. Moreover, the claim that he was caught providing funds to organized crime and being introduced to the case seemed like a simple ghost story at first. However, in just a few days, these circumstances began to become reality through actual media reports and announcements from investigative agencies. Repeated ‘coincidences’ are no longer coincidences. We are now at a turning point where the reality of the illegal commission structure, which had been dismissed as rumors, is coming to the surface one by one. A representative example is the so-called ‘Rolls-Royce drug hit-and-run incident’ that occurred in August 2023. The suspect who killed a woman in her 20s while driving a luxury car while under the influence of drugs was indicted on charges of providing entertainment worth 100 million won to a current police officer during the investigation of the case. According to the media, this entertainment was arranged through the office manager of a specific law firm, and the law firm was staffed with many former police officers. The suspect was also a person suspected of being linked to gang violence. There was also an incident that followed. Two offices were searched and seized on the charge that a lawyer from another law firm transferred approximately 20 million won to a prison guard through a transaction with a detention center inmate and in return had the client assigned to a solitary confinement room rather than a general single room. The structure of buying prison conditions with money has been revealed in reality. Cases like these suggest that illegal appointment behavior in the legal profession is a structural problem, not an isolated individual deviation. Within the legal profession, illegal brokers, so-called ‘off-site office managers’, have been operating secretly, and they have exploited the asymmetric information structure to make it impossible for the public to reasonably request cases. Brokers exaggerate investigative influence or previous titles and demand tens of millions of won from clients, and law firms have condoned or aided this. Furthermore, some are even showing duplicitous behavior by using brokers as part of their ‘sales strategy.’ The moment this illegal structure becomes a means of survival rather than an object of crackdown, trust in the judiciary collapses. Daeryun Law Firm, of which the author is the CEO, strictly prohibits all members from contacting brokers and operates an internal guideline to immediately file a complaint with an investigative agency when illegal circumstances are confirmed. However, the reality that law firms that comply with these ethical standards are marginalized in the market, and law firms that condone or utilize illegal laws have a competitive advantage is a structural reversal that seriously undermines the foundation of the rule of law. The problem is that this can no longer be solved through self-regulation of the lawyer industry alone. Collusion with public power, leakage of investigative information, and mediation of cases are not just ethical issues, but are criminal crimes, and the damage is suffered not by specific individuals but by the entire society. Therefore, the state must now step in. In order to protect judicial justice and market trust, the government and related organizations must immediately begin a thorough investigation into cases that have already been revealed, a large-scale investigation and inspection of the overall illegal commission structure that is still continuing in the shadows, and institutional supplementation to prevent recurrence. People trust the ethics of lawyers and entrust their rights and lives to the judicial system. However, if that trust is repeatedly betrayed, justice will collapse and the legal profession will lose its basis for existence. What we need to do now is clear. Breaking the chains of illegality and corruption and re-establishing a structure of justice that the people can trust. And it starts with the country facing this structural problem and taking practical measures.[View full article] Korea Law Daily - [Contribution] Illegal delegation structure that undermines trust in the judiciary.

Recently, large-scale fraud has been rampant, recruiting investors with the lure of high profits and stealing their investment funds. In fact, according to the interim results of the special crackdown on investment fraud announced by the police in February of this year, a total of 7,232 cases were detected during the 17-month crackdown period, and 3,300 people were arrested. In particular, the total amount of damage received during the period was calculated to be around 894.9 billion won. Especially these days, the damage is becoming more severe due to the so-called ‘Ponzi scheme’, which has become more multi-level. They operate an illegal multi-level organization and plan systematic fraud. After gaining the trust of victims over a long period of time, they attract not only the victims, but also the victims' families and acquaintances, causing not only financial losses but also psychological damage. To explain the Ponzi scheme in more detail, let's look at the case I am currently working on. Uplus KMA (hereinafter referred to as UK Platform), headquartered in Changwon-si, Gyeongsangnam-do, operates an asset management service business, including medical services, with more than thousands of members across the country. The company urged its members to invest, guaranteeing monthly returns of 5-10%. In addition, the company has been providing points that can be used on the platform when it receives investment funds from members. Members use these points to receive services such as receiving treatment at affiliated hospitals or taking cruises through travel companies. From the members’ perspective, there was no reason not to participate. Additionally, if you invite family or acquaintances, you can earn more points, so additional rewards are guaranteed. However, the situation took a turn recently when the CEO of the UK platform was arrested on charges of fraud. It was revealed that the company had been using the money of new investors to divert profits that were supposed to be paid out to existing investors. The UK platform not only stopped paying profits but also stopped providing various services that members had used. In the end, the damage grew out of control, and the corporation I work for is gathering victims and preparing a class action lawsuit. In Ponzi fraud cases such as the UK platform, quick response is key. First, if the scale of fraud damage is large, a class action lawsuit can be considered. In order to proceed with a class action lawsuit, you must first recruit victims. Usually, there is a benefit to a joint action with 10 or more people, so the key is to gather as many victims as possible. Class action procedures are largely divided into criminal and civil. First, victims, along with their legal representative, clearly outline the details of the incident and the extent of the damage and submit a complaint through the local police station. Criminal litigation can be said to be the first step to maximizing the criminal punishment of the perpetrator and gaining an advantageous position from the victim's perspective. In addition, a civil lawsuit must also be filed to recover damages. This is because criminal judgments can be used as powerful evidence in civil lawsuits. If civil liability for damages is recognized and a judgment for compensation for damages is made, compulsory execution through seizure, etc. of the perpetrator's assets becomes possible. Daeryun Ko Jeong-hang, a criminal lawyer at the Daeryun Law Firm, said, "A class action lawsuit usually takes six months to a year to complete just the criminal procedure. If a civil lawsuit is added, it may take even longer, so thorough preparation is necessary in advance." He added, "Therefore, if you are planning a class action lawsuit, we recommend that you appoint a legal representative with extensive experience in representing related cases. Professionals who are well-versed and experienced in group criminal complaints, civil preservative dispositions and litigation, etc. “Only by proceeding with the case with a qualified law firm or lawyer can the loss be recovered as quickly as possible and the damage that has already occurred can be minimized, and the perpetrators who have committed a mistake that has completely destroyed the lives of the victims must be severely punished,” he said.

A group of people who lured investors into a stock reading room using famous investment experts and then defrauded them of 4 billion won in investment money was sentenced to prison. On the 10th of last month, the Daegu District Court sentenced Mr. A, in his 30s, to six years in prison on charges of fraud and violation of the law on regulation and punishment of concealment of criminal proceeds. Four accomplices who were also brought to trial were also sentenced to 3 to 8 years in prison each. Mr. A and others have been incarcerated since February of last year. They are suspected of running a fake investment site until April and stealing about 4.8 billion won from 35 victims, including Mr. B. They were found to have attracted unspecified people by posting advertisements on the Internet and social media (SNS) saying, "High profits of up to 300% are expected after listing," and deceived victims by impersonating investment experts. In addition, they deposited the swindled money into a cannon account managed by the organization or pretended to buy and sell gift certificates. It was also confirmed that they had concealed the proceeds of crime through methods such as transfers. The court pointed out, "The role played by the defendants was essential for the completion of the crime and realization of profits in this case, and the degree of their participation was not light." It also stated the reason for sentencing, saying, "It was a planned and organized crime, and the number of victims was large, the amount of evasion was also large, and the need for heavy punishment to prevent the recurrence of repetitive fraud." Attorney Jeon Hyo-cheol of Daeryun Law Firm, Mr. B's legal representative, pointed out, "The victim, who lost almost all of his money, is complaining of extreme pain, but no recovery has been achieved at all." He added, "In fact, even if the organization received investment money from victims, including Mr. B, it had no intention or ability to pay the promised profits," and emphasized, "The crime method was elaborate, including concealing the source of the damage, so severe punishment should have been imposed."

Person A, who purchased Pulio's massage device last March, developed scars on his legs after two months of use. Person A claimed that although he dressed and used the massage device as instructed by Pouliot, he suffered low-temperature burns. The model used by Mr. A is a thigh massage device with a heating function released in February 2025. Another user, Mr. B, underwent surgery to remove necrotic tissue due to low-temperature burns. He claimed that although he wore thick clothes and used a massager on top as instructed by Pouliot, it was not enough to prevent burns. According to the massage equipment industry on the 8th, conflicts between companies and consumers who have experienced problems such as low-temperature burns and abrasions after using Pullio products are spreading. Pullio is a premium home massage brand established in 2022. It maintains the top spot in domestic sales by introducing a wireless calf massage device. Last year's sales were about 190 billion won, more than three times more than the previous year. This company's products became popular when Key, a member of the boy group SHINee, wore them on the 'I Live Alone' broadcast program. The price is around 200,000 to 600,000 won. More than 1 million devices have been sold to date. However, as the number of consumers who say they have suffered low-temperature burns due to the heating function is increasing, conflict over compensation for damages is spreading. The heating function is a function that increases the temperature of the massage area to provide effects such as muscle relaxation and improved blood circulation. This function is installed in most massage devices. This function is also applied to domestic massage chair companies Ceragem and Bodyfriend. However, it has been reported that no cases of damage caused by low-temperature burns due to the heating function have been reported so far. This is because it is equipped with a function to prevent low-temperature burns. Bodyfriend's product has a function that automatically adjusts the heating level after 20 minutes of operation to prevent low-temperature burns. Ceragem’s massage chairs also reach a maximum temperature of 65 degrees, but burns are prevented through low-temperature burn prevention technology. Some products of Bodyfriend and Ceragem are registered as ‘medical devices’ and are subject to strict standards. In order to be recognized as a medical device, it must be certified by the Ministry of Food and Drug Safety, so there is no choice but to introduce technology to prevent low-temperature burns. However, since the Pulio is a massage device, not a medical device, it is known that relatively relaxed standards are applied. Experts explain that this company's products inevitably have a greater risk of low-temperature burns than open-type massage chairs due to the nature of massage devices that cover the legs. Accordingly, Pullio informs consumers that "since each individual's skin is different, it is better to use it on clothing to prevent low-temperature burns, and do not use it in the same area for a long time." An official in the massage industry said, "Pulio products are not medical devices and the unit price is cheaper than general devices, so they use their own technology. “Rather than preventing the problem, we had no choice but to go in the direction of guiding consumers’ usage behavior,” he said. Pulio said, “We are working to compensate for damage caused by the massage device by reflecting the consumer’s position as much as possible,” but consumers who actually suffered damage claim that “they did not receive compensation for treatment costs.” The company also said, “We have maintained the safety standard for heat below 45 degrees, but due to the nature of massage devices with a heat function, the possibility of low-temperature burns occurring depending on the user’s usage cannot be completely ruled out.” “There are none, so caution is needed for safe use.” As low-temperature burns continued to occur, Pouliot announced that it would completely remove the product’s heating function from April 2025. In addition, he added that he created a TF technology development (R&D) team and began development to prevent the occurrence of blisters due to skin friction. Attorney Lee Il-hyung of Daeryun Medical Pharmaceutical Group, a law firm, said, “It is necessary to objectively prove whether the consumer used it in accordance with all instructions and whether burns occurred despite following the instructions. If the requirements of the Product Liability Act are met, the manufacturer is likely to be liable for damages unless it can prove that the damage occurred due to a cause other than a defect. “It is high,” he said. However, he said, “There were not many accidents like this, and if the accident occurred while following the instructions, the problem may be due to the patient’s unusual constitution.” He also said, “Even in this case, there is a possibility that the manufacturer’s responsibility may be absent or limited.” Meanwhile, Pouliot also voluntarily recalled 80,000 neck and shoulder massagers on May 26. Although there were no defects in the product, the material at the end of the massage ball at the bottom of the product was designed to be hard and angled, so it was confirmed that there was a risk of abrasions occurring during the massage process.

Law: “Even though the incident happened three years ago, it is difficult to understand the overly detailed statement.” A female suspect in her 50s who was accused of touching the body of an elementary school student was found not guilty. According to the legal community on the 7th, the Bucheon branch of the Incheon District Court declared A, a woman in her 50s, not guilty on the 18th of last month on charges of violating the Child Welfare Act (forcing children to commit prostitution, prostitution, and sexual harassment). Ms. A was sued by the parents of victim B for touching her lips and patting her buttocks in front of a convenience store near her house in August 2020. During the subsequent investigation, Mr. A argued, “As there was no fact of meeting Mr. B at the relevant time, the fact that there was physical contact with sexual intent does not establish itself.” The court, which conducted a hearing on both sides’ claims, found Mr. A not guilty. The court stated the reason for the sentence, saying, “During the investigation, Mr. B described Mr. A’s facial expressions and detailed facial features in excessive detail, and the statements surrounding the first meeting with Mr. A were different from the statements made at the Sunflower Center and in court.” The court specifically said, “This incident was reported about three years after the date of occurrence, and the possibility cannot be ruled out that the parents of the victim identified the defendant as the perpetrator of the sexual crime after arguing with the defendant.” “The time of the incident occurred in the afternoon. Considering that it was between 2 and 4 o'clock, the possibility that they actually encountered each other at that date and time is not high considering the defendant's working hours," he added. Attorney Kim Jong-seo of Daeryun Law Firm, who represented Mr. A, said, "As this case was filed more than three years after the incident, we could not rule out the possibility that the complaint was made by exaggerating or distorting the facts out of retaliation against the client." He added, "The real right as collateral for the loan company was established through the complainant's apartment register. “In fact, we were able to obtain a not guilty verdict by accurately explaining the circumstances surrounding Group B’s move,” he explained.

A man who was sent to a company under his wife's name to steal customer information he learned while working at the company for several years was acquitted. On the 16th of last month, the Ilsan West Police Station in Gyeonggi Province decided not to send Mr. A, who is in his 60s, on charges of violating the law on aggravated punishment of specific economic crimes (breach of trust). Mr. A has been involved in numerous contracts in charge of general management at Company B, a company specializing in new and renewable energy, from 2022 to last year. At that time, Mr. A was involved in external activities on behalf of the company and was directly involved in several contracts. Company B claimed that Mr. A made a profit by stealing customer information he learned during work to a corporation established in his spouse's name. Mr. A denied all charges. Company B was notified in advance that the spouse's company was participating in the business, and the business details of the two companies did not overlap, so there was no problem. The police decided not to send the case to Mr. A. As a result of conducting an investigation into the projects and contracts in which Mr. A participated while working at Company B, it was determined that charges such as breach of duty were not established. The police explained, “When looking at the business structure and profit relationship of Company B comprehensively, it is difficult to say that Mr. A used Company B’s key information unfairly,” adding, “Rather, it appears that Mr. A received help from a company under his spouse’s name to proceed with Company B’s business.” Lawyer Jeong-Hyeon Yoon of Daeryun Law Firm (Limited), who represented Mr. A. He said, "In order for a criminal breach of trust to be established, it is established when a person who handles another person's affairs violates his/her duties for the benefit of himself or a third party and thereby causes property damage." He continued, "Considering the business structure, content, and progress of Company B, Mr. A's act of receiving fees in the name of consulting fees from related companies cannot be an act of inflicting property damage on Company B or an act of unfair benefit to Mr. A or a third party." He added, “Mr. A was not recognized as guilty of a crime, so he was able to receive a decision of non-transportation.” Reporter Hwang Jeong-won (jwhwang@mt.co.kr)[View full article] They say the company's business partner information was stolen...

Voice phishing crimes are becoming increasingly sophisticated. It is no longer possible to deceive people with crude text or slurred speech like in the past. When dealing with actual criminal cases, many of the ‘collectors’, ‘delivery agents’, and ‘account and SIM providers’ who participate in voice phishing are either newcomers to society or housewives. After registering their resumes on an internet job search site, they are hired according to the working conditions offered online. At first, the job was unrelated to voice phishing, but later on, he was in charge of delivering goods in the name of ‘supporting work of other departments.’ In addition, the methods are becoming more diverse and sophisticated, such as impersonating a financial institution by offering to arrange a low-interest loan or contacting people under the pretext of compensating for damage from personal information leaks from a specific site. The problem is that even those who did not intend to participate in the crime from the beginning end up becoming suspects and defendants and are subject to criminal punishment. If it is revealed that the item delivered as ‘work support for other departments’ was an envelope containing damage money, and that the account provided by the person was used to collect money from the victims, investigative agencies often regard the person as an accomplice. On the other hand, the head of the voice phishing organization that planned and manipulated the actual crime is not easily caught in the investigative net due to its structure. Despite this structural vulnerability, legal judgment is very strict. According to recent trends, most claims that suspects and defendants were ‘not aware’ that their actions were voice phishing are not accepted. Given that warnings and promotions about voice phishing are widespread throughout society, and that account transfers and cash collection activities themselves have a somewhat abnormal structure, most cases are found guilty on the grounds that ‘there was at least some room for suspicion, but this was overlooked.’ However, it is questionable whether this uniform judgment truly complies with the principle of responsibility. Voice phishing techniques are becoming more sophisticated day by day, and is it fair to punish based on ‘recognizability’ even in cases that appear to be normal procedures? There is a need to more closely examine the individual circumstances, circumstances, and level of deception for those who are both actual victims and suspects.[View full article] [Expert Contribution] Voice phishing, boundaries between perpetrators and victims… Consider the principle of responsibility (link)
