As a repeat offense within 10 years from the date on which the last drunk driving punishment became final, the case was subject to aggravated punishment. This time, there was a high likelihood of a sentence of imprisonment, an actual custodial sentence, rather than a drunk driving fine or a suspended sentence, so with the assistance of Daeryun Law Firm the matter was able to conclude with a suspended sentence. 2024-08-22T00:27:57.483Z https://www.daeryunlaw.com/en/success_new/80 The client who sought a special bodily injury attorney had a prior record and committed special bodily injury during the suspended sentence period of a prior crime, so the help of a special bodily injury attorney was needed. 2025-06-18T06:42:29.195Z https://www.daeryunlaw.com/en/success_new/74 The client was in a difficult situation after driving while intoxicated and causing a drunk driving traffic accident.

Even though the client had asked the adulterous partner not to meet her husband, the adulterous partner continued to maintain the relationship. 2024-08-21T02:23:01.929Z https://www.daeryunlaw.com/en/success_new/57 The client, who was facing punishment for obstruction of official duties, had several prior convictions. However, by responding together with a criminal law attorney, the client avoided an actual custodial sentence for the obstruction of official duties. 2024-08-21T02:21:48.386Z https://www.daeryunlaw.com/en/success_new/52 The client, who needed a jeonse deposit return suit, was in a difficult situation because the deposit had not been returned even though the renewal of the lease had been refused.

The client requested repayment from the acquaintance several times but did not receive the money. 2024-08-21T02:16:19.851Z https://www.daeryunlaw.com/en/success_new/37 The client who requested assistance with a monthly rent deposit return lawsuit filed a deposit return lawsuit against a landlord who had not returned the deposit even though the lease had ended. 2025-11-12T00:24:59.000Z https://www.daeryunlaw.com/en/success_new/33 The client, who urgently sought an assault attorney, requested a consultation, stating that the client had been unjustly drawn into an assault dispute and needed an attorney's assistance. To establish the client's innocence, the assault attorney provided assistance from the consultation through every stage of the process. 2026-04-15T04:08:25.029Z https://www.daeryunlaw.com/en/success_new/30 The client, who was caught by the police for driving under the influence without a license, was facing trial. Wishing to reduce the sentence as much as possible, the client needed the assistance of a specialized attorney. 2026-04-21T02:07:50.983Z https://www.daeryunlaw.com/en/success_new/29 The client who came to the affair partner attorney decided to file a lawsuit against the female affair partner, who had committed adultery and infringed on the marital community. 2024-08-21T02:09:32.135Z https://www.daeryunlaw.com/en/success_new/28 The client, who drove under the influence without a license, had previously paid a traffic penalty once for a prior drunk driving record. Despite that prior drunk driving record, the client again drove under the influence without a license, leaving the situation unfavorable. 2024-08-21T02:08:25.490Z https://www.daeryunlaw.com/en/success_new/17 The client, who caused a drunk driving accident, had twice before been sentenced to fines for drunk driving. This time the accident also produced a victim, so the likelihood of an actual custodial sentence was high. 2024-08-21T02:07:18.947Z https://www.daeryunlaw.com/en/trend/14767 The Supreme Court held that, even where a decision of nonconformity with the Constitution has been rendered with respect to the former Medical Care Assistance Act, the entire statutory provision is not uniformly suspended in its application.It further held that the retroactive effect of such a decision extends to parallel cases pending before the courts at the time of the decision of nonconformity, and that the current Medical Care Assistance Act, from which the unconstitutionality has been removed, must be applied. In doing so, the Court set out in concrete terms the scope of effect of a decision of nonconformity with the Constitution and the standards for handling parallel cases (Supreme Court, Judgment of May 29, 2026, 2023 Du 57913). 2026-06-23T09:50:01.184Z https://www.daeryunlaw.com/en/trend/14766 The Ministry of Health and Welfare has drawn the pharmaceutical industry's attention by releasing a proposed revision of the certification criteria for innovative pharmaceutical companies, along with measures to strengthen drug-pricing preferences.As an upward adjustment of the research and development (R&D) investment threshold, a reform of the certification review framework, and the creation of a quasi-innovative pharmaceutical company category are being pursued, the need for advance review at the company level is growing, because whether a company maintains its certification may affect drug-pricing preferences and participation in government support programs. 2026-06-23T09:25:20.032Z https://www.daeryunlaw.com/en/trend/14753 In a case raising the question of whether ordinary decorative tattooing (lettering and tattoo work) performed by a non-medical person constitutes unlicensed medical practice prohibited under the Medical Service Act, the Supreme Court held that such conduct can no longer be regarded as a medical practice.In this decision, the Supreme Court comprehensively redefined the concept of "medical practice" under the Medical Service Act and the standards for assessing it, and in this process it also modified prior Supreme Court precedents, including the 2004 tattoo-related precedent. (Supreme Court, En Banc Decision of May 21, 2026, 2022 Do 13370) 2026-06-23T05:29:20.833Z https://www.daeryunlaw.com/en/trend/14739 The Supreme Court held that, where only the principal is stated in the claim amount of a provisional attachment, the effect of interrupting prescription through the provisional attachment arises only with respect to the principal claim and does not extend to ancillary claims, such as interest or damages for delay, that are not included in the claim amount.In addition, the Court held that, even where only a portion of a divisible claim is specified as the claimed credit and made subject to provisional attachment, the effect of interrupting prescription is recognized only within the scope of that claimed credit, thereby clarifying the relationship between provisional attachment and extinctive prescription (Supreme Court, Decision of October 25, 2024, 2024 Da 233212). 2026-06-23T04:17:21.003Z https://www.daeryunlaw.com/en/trend/14737 The Supreme Court held that even where the transferee of a commercial building succeeds to the lessor's status, the transferee does not thereby succeed to the claims for overdue rent that arose during the period of the former lessor.However, the Court found that, at the stage of returning the deposit after termination of the lease, overdue rent and management fees that arose before the succession to the lessor's status may also be deducted from the deposit absent special circumstances, and it set out the scope of security and the standards for deduction of a lease deposit (Supreme Court, Decision of March 22, 2017, 2016 Da 218874). 2026-06-23T04:03:28.007Z https://www.daeryunlaw.com/en/trend/14708 In a case in which the issue was whether a lessor could deduct overdue rent from the lease deposit when an attachment and collection order had been issued against the lessor's rent claim while the lessee was in arrears, the Supreme Court held that overdue rent that has not yet been collected may still be deducted from the lease deposit.The lessees argued that, because the rent claim had already been attached, the lessor could no longer exercise that claim. The Supreme Court, however, held that the security function of the lease deposit does not extinguish by virtue of an attachment and collection order alone. (Supreme Court, Decision of December 23, 2004, 2004 Da 56554) 2026-06-17T10:05:31.969Z https://www.daeryunlaw.com/en/trend/14706 The Supreme Court held that joint lessees' claim for the return of the lease deposit constitutes an indivisible claim, and that a seizure and assignment order directed against one of the joint lessees does not extend its effect to the other joint lessees.The Court further confirmed that a set-off agreement on the deposit concluded between one of the joint lessees and the lessor does not automatically take effect against the other joint lessees, and, in doing so, set out in concrete terms the attribution of rights and the scope of claim enforcement in a joint-lease structure (Supreme Court, Decision of March 30, 2023, 2021 Da 264253). 2026-06-17T09:21:46.604Z https://www.daeryunlaw.com/en/trend/14690 As competition to gain an early foothold in the Age-Tech market intensifies, major companies are moving to expand AI-based health management and care services.As population aging converges with the advancement of digital technology, the legal issues that companies must examine, including personal information protection, medical device regulation, data utilization, and contractual frameworks, are likewise increasing. 2026-06-16T10:39:24.722Z https://www.daeryunlaw.com/en/trend/14650 From a personal information compliance perspective, the case in which a penalty surcharge of 624.6 billion won was imposed on Coupang is regarded as an instance in which the scope of investigation expanded beyond a personal information leak to online activity records and internal control systems. 2026-06-12T16:05:58.795Z https://www.daeryunlaw.com/en/trend/14633 ESG disclosure is no longer confined to serving as a means of promoting a company's corporate social responsibility activities or its environmentally friendly management results. With the Financial Services Commission's recent discussions on a sustainability disclosure roadmap and the Korea Accounting Institute's moves to amend accounting standards, ESG disclosure is establishing itself as core information for assessing a company's financial position, management strategy, and risk-management system. 2026-06-11T10:02:44.993Z https://www.daeryunlaw.com/en/trend/14609 An accounting fraud investigation is not merely a procedure for confirming whether accounting fraud or a violation of accounting standards has occurred. Recently, the financial authorities announced a policy to strengthen the level of sanctions, treating the refusal to submit accounting records, the submission of false records, and the obstruction of audits as serious violations that undermine the accounting supervision system. 2026-06-10T09:31:42.646Z https://www.daeryunlaw.com/en/trend/14558 A company in need of financial regulatory advisory should examine how over-the-counter derivatives transactions are connected to actual stock market transactions. The Supreme Court recently held that, where an order using a CFD (contract for difference) passes through a securities firm and leads to a price-manipulative transaction in actual listed shares, market manipulation under the Financial Investment Services and Capital Markets Act may be established. (Supreme Court, Decision of May 20, 2026, 2025 Do 21859) 2026-06-16T04:06:04.047Z https://www.daeryunlaw.com/en/trend/13898 The S Electronics general strike, which began with a dispute over performance pay, is regarded as a case that exposed internal organizational conflict, supply-chain risk, and the structural problems of having multiple labor unions. In particular, because this situation brought the expansion of performance-compensation-focused unions together with a full-fledged clash of interests among business divisions, commentators have noted the need for changes in how companies manage collective bargaining and labor-relations risk. 2026-05-27T01:48:04.077Z https://www.daeryunlaw.com/en/trend/13850 An era in which companies themselves choose the schedule of a corporate tax audit has begun. This article examines the tax-audit timing selection system, which takes full effect in April 2026. 2026-05-25T08:48:35.063Z https://www.daeryunlaw.com/en/trend/13832 A wife who secretly installed a voice recorder to obtain evidence of her spouse's infidelity was recently given a suspended sentence (a suspended sentence under Korean law, broadly comparable to a suspended sentence or probation in common-law systems, under which the conviction loses its effect once the suspension period passes without incident) of imprisonment. Accordingly, questions are being raised about the need to secure evidence lawfully in infidelity and affair-partner litigation, as well as the need to respond to the risk of criminal punishment. 2026-05-27T09:47:39.951Z https://www.daeryunlaw.com/en/trend/13831 Jang Yun-gi (23), the suspect in the Gwangju high school girl murder case, was found through the investigation to have originally been searching for a woman he had been stalking and then to have changed his target, killing a high school girl whom he had never met. As a result, concern is growing over the pattern in which stalking crimes escalate into violent crimes. This case involves not only the crime of murder but also attempted murder, preparation for murder, and stalking, and the importance of victim protection and personal-safety responses is again drawing attention. 2026-05-23T07:36:47.630Z https://www.daeryunlaw.com/en/trend/13830 In a wage litigation case in which the issue was whether the 20% annual delay interest rate under the Labor Standards Act applies to interim-settlement severance pay disbursed during the period of employment, the Supreme Court held that this provision does not apply to interim-settlement severance pay (Supreme Court, Decision of March 12, 2026, 2025 Da 214123). 2026-05-23T04:52:20.667Z https://www.daeryunlaw.com/en/trend/13712 In a case raising the question of whether criminal punishment was possible on the ground that an employer had failed to comply with the Labor Relations Commission's order of reinstatement to the original position even after a fixed-term labor-provision contract had ended, the Supreme Court held that, if it was not made clear in the Labor Relations Commission's determination that a duty of reinstatement continued to exist after the contract term ended, the crime of violating a remedy order is difficult to establish.The Supreme Court reasoned that, because a remedy order of the Labor Relations Commission serves as the premise for criminal punishment, its content must be clear enough for the employer to recognize, and that criminal liability cannot be found without a determination as to whether the contractual relationship continued after the contract term ended; accordingly, it reversed and remanded the lower judgment. (Supreme Court, Decision of April 30, 2026, 2023 Do 8049) 2026-05-21T11:06:33.988Z https://www.daeryunlaw.com/en/trend/13328 In a construction claim case, a ruling emerged in which liability for damages was recognized even though the noise from the construction site was within the statutory living-noise standards. (Supreme Court, Judgment of April 13, 2023, 2022 Da 210000) 2026-05-19T04:33:20.081Z https://www.daeryunlaw.com/en/trend/13321 Environmental disputes can have a considerable impact on the overall operation of a business, as they may extend beyond civil claims for damages to administrative dispositions, business suspension, restoration orders, and even criminal liability.In a case where a company that recycled waste as fill material at a building and civil engineering construction site received a corrective order on the ground that contaminants exceeding the soil contamination concern standard were detected, the Supreme Court held that "even if the recycling standards contain no express provision, the compliance requirements for preventing environmental contamination apply separately."This judgment merits reference in practice, in that the court interpreted the regulations with a focus on the purpose of environmental protection and the principle of precaution in an environmental dispute concerning waste recycling. (Supreme Court, Decision of April 3, 2025, 2023 Du 31454) 2026-05-19T04:31:51.855Z https://www.daeryunlaw.com/en/trend/13302 In a case raising the question of whether the public-law obligations concerning waste generated at a business site are succeeded to when that site of a business-site waste discharger is acquired through an auction, the Supreme Court held that waste left outside the business site is also, in principle, included within the scope of succession.However, the Supreme Court held that liability cannot be imposed uniformly even in cases where the purchaser did not know of the existence of the external waste and had justifiable grounds for not knowing.The lower court held that, once a business site has been acquired through an auction, the obligation to treat waste located outside the business site is likewise wholly succeeded to. The Supreme Court, however, found that examination of the purchaser's ability to recognize the waste and of the principle of self-responsibility was necessary, and it reversed and remanded the lower judgment. (Supreme Court, Decision of January 15, 2026, 2023 Du 62830) 2026-05-19T04:30:32.821Z https://www.daeryunlaw.com/en/trend/12513 As the rise in international oil prices and exchange-rate volatility triggered by recent instability in the Middle East continues, tension is spreading across the domestic supply chain as a whole. In response, the government has decided to pursue the priority supply of raw materials for essential medical items, such as surgical gowns, surgical drapes, and medical waste bags, for which production disruptions are feared due to instability in the supply of petrochemical raw materials. This is a measure that recognizes the medical supply chain as a strategic national domain and responds accordingly. Accordingly, companies, too, increasingly need to build a stable supply chain that is not shaken by external volatility and to prepare response strategies tailored to each raw-material supply scenario. 2026-04-28T05:21:34.670Z https://www.daeryunlaw.com/en/trend/12508 As military tensions and geopolitical risks in the Middle East have expanded, a clear shift has also emerged in global capital flows. As confidence in certain regions previously regarded as stable financial hubs has wavered, Hong Kong, the financial center of Asia, has drawn renewed attention while enjoying the resulting benefits.In particular, with the recent increase in capital inflows, the fact that Hong Kong is shifting its strategy toward a “composite hub” that extends beyond a financial center to encompass the technology industry is regarded as a change that also carries significant meaning for Korean technology companies. 2026-04-27T02:54:01.573Z https://www.daeryunlaw.com/en/trend/12445 The personal data hacking incident that occurred at the matchmaking company Duo was confirmed to be a large-scale leak involving the information of approximately 430,000 members. In particular, because the leaked data extended beyond ordinary personal information to include profile data such as individuals' marital history, family relationships, employment, and financial standing, discussion has begun in earnest over how far the scope of a company's data-management responsibility extends. 2026-06-09T04:39:53.150Z https://www.daeryunlaw.com/en/trend/12289 Director remuneration is an area subject to strict procedural controls under Article 388 of the Commercial Act, and recent changes in case law have expanded the range of legal risks to encompass the shareholders' resolution, the board resolution, and even restrictions on voting rights.Remuneration paid without compliance with the required resolution procedures may lead to the return of unjust enrichment and to a shareholder derivative suit, so companies are advised to conduct advance reviews. 2026-05-26T06:24:21.849Z https://www.daeryunlaw.com/en/trend/12271 The military conflict in the Middle East and the de facto blockade of the Strait of Hormuz are matters that are driving structural change across the global energy supply chain. In particular, the fact that the Gulf Cooperation Council (GCC) member states designated Korea as a ‘top-priority supply recipient’ is a result that reflects strategic interests beyond diplomatic rhetoric. This article provides an in-depth analysis of these developments based on the latest international circumstances and news reporting, and it examines in concrete terms the risks that companies may face and the corresponding response strategies from legal and economic perspectives. 2026-04-20T08:38:58.310Z https://www.daeryunlaw.com/en/trend/12038 Intensifying U.S.-China tensions, the spread of protectionism, and growing geopolitical risk are rapidly transforming the global supply chain environment. In response, major Korean companies are moving away from their previous efficiency-centered production structures and pursuing a structural transition centered on supply chain stability and diversification strategies.

(Seoul Southern District Court, Decision of January 14, 2025, 2023 Gadan 261818) 2026-04-07T06:48:59.526Z https://www.daeryunlaw.com/en/trend/11582 In a case in which the issue was whether the opposing power and the right to preferential reimbursement previously acquired are maintained where a tenant directly purchases the housing in which the tenant had been residing under a jeonse arrangement, the Supreme Court held that those rights are all extinguished at the time ownership is acquired.The lower court found that the tenant lost the opposing power and the right to preferential reimbursement upon acquiring the housing, and that a ground for exemption under the jeonse-fund safe-loan guarantee terms therefore arose.The Supreme Court likewise accepted this reasoning and held that, once the tenant's possession can no longer be regarded as possession based on the leasehold, the resident registration loses its function as a method of public notice, and the opposing power is extinguished at the time ownership is acquired. (Supreme Court, Decision of January 8, 2026, 2025 Da 213466) 2026-04-06T07:18:10.146Z https://www.daeryunlaw.com/en/trend/11577 Rescission of contract is a key legal issue in reconstruction and redevelopment projects, one that can determine not only the resolution of a contractual dispute but the very progress of the project itself. In particular, whether rescission remains possible even where a sales contract formed through the exercise of a demand for sale has been confirmed by a final judgment has continued to arise as a practical question. In this case, the court held that even where a reconstruction association has exercised its demand for sale, a sales contract has been formed, and a final judgment has been obtained, the contract may still be rescinded on the ground of default under the Civil Act if the purchase price is subsequently not paid. The court also held that a deposit made after the contract had been lawfully rescinded cannot undo the rescission that had already taken effect, thereby placing certain limits on the strategy of avoiding disputes through a subsequent deposit, a practice frequently used in reconstruction matters.

This case is regarded as a significant precedent because, beyond the violation of the Medical Service Act, it addressed the criteria for criminal punishment of repeated and profit-driven administration, and because the lawfulness of the evidence obtained during the search and seizure had a direct effect on the sentence. 2026-04-02T01:26:15.300Z https://www.daeryunlaw.com/en/trend/11461 The Korean government prevailed in full in an international investment dispute (ISDS) of approximately 320 billion won brought by the Swiss company Schindler.This award carries significant meaning in that it clarified the international legal standards governing a state's regulatory authority and the scope of investor protection.

The issues were whether a defect in the installation or preservation of a structure under Article 758(1) of the Civil Act was established, and whether the amount of damages could be reduced under Article 3 of the Act on Liability for Fire Caused by Negligence.The Seoul Northern District Court recognized the tort liability of the person who discarded the cigarette butt, and, taking comprehensive account of the fire vulnerability of the damaged buildings themselves, the causes of the expansion of the damage, and the fairness of the apportionment of loss, it reduced the amount of damages by 50%.

The question is whether, when such a commission is paid in the course of an illegal solicitation of investment funds, the recipient may retain it.In this case, the issue was whether the sales commissions paid to freelance investment solicitors after the unauthorized fund-raising company entered rehabilitation proceedings could be recovered as unjust enrichment.The Supreme Court held that, even for a sales commission paid in the course of unauthorized fund-raising, a claim for its return may exceptionally be allowed under the principles of fairness and good faith when various circumstances are considered together, and it reversed and remanded the lower judgment.

The convenience of the investigation cannot take precedence over the basic rights of the people.” Kim Young-soo, a lawyer at Daeryun Law Firm, criticized the investigative agency’s practice of executing search and seizure warrants. The constitutional petition filed by Attorney Kim recently passed the preliminary review of the Constitutional Court and was referred to the full court (trial on the merits). This is a meaningful result that allows us to look again at the investigative agency's forced investigation practices and the court's passive interpretation from a constitutional perspective after the full implementation of the court member system last March. A tribunal refers to a system in which court trials are subject to constitutional appeal adjudication. Attorney Kim, who served as the chief judge of the Navy Military Court and the Deputy General Judge of the High Military Court of the Ministry of National Defense and the first director of the Navy Human Rights Center, is a legal expert who has been involved in the military judicial system for 22 years. He filed this constitutional petition based on the procedural limitations he experienced when he was searched and seized as a direct reference in 2022. Attorney Kim pointed out the procedural limitations he experienced during the special prosecutor's search and seizure in 2022. The special prosecutor searched and seized him as a witness in the case of Sergeant Lee Ye-ram's death, but in reality, he explained, it was a forced investigation with the intention of turning him into a suspect. He recalled, "Even though I was not involved in the case at the time, the investigation team only made me read dozens of pages of warrants at the scene and did not even allow me to issue copies or take notes." He went on to emphasize that he was restricted in exercising his right to procedural defense, saying, "I requested to see the warrant again to prevent the conversation or private information I had with the client from being exposed during the cell phone forensics process, but I was refused." Forensics is an investigative technique that finds clues to crimes by restoring data stored in digital devices such as smartphones and PCs. Attorney Kim pointed out that the judiciary's passive interpretation of the current law is undermining the principle of due process guaranteed by the Constitution due to the absence of a copy of the warrant and the obstruction of the process of appeal for an illegal investigation. While the right to access warrants is widely recognized for suspects suspected of crimes in order to guarantee their right to defense, it is pointed out that it is a logical contradiction to strictly limit the issuance of copies to unsuspecting witnesses on the grounds of investigative confidentiality. There was also concern that without a copy of the warrant, the means to check the compulsory disposition of investigative agencies virtually disappears. The core of warrantism is that searches must only be conducted within the subject and period authorized by the judge. Attorney Kim said, “Without a copy of the warrant, there is no way to clearly check on the spot whether the investigative agency is searching within the scope permitted by the court.” He added, “Even if you later try to file a quasi-appeal against the illegal search and seizure, it is difficult to even specify the reason for the illegality because there is no warrant.” A quasi-appeal is a procedure to request cancellation or change from the court in response to dissatisfaction with an investigation agency's disposition, such as search and seizure. The reason the Constitutional Court referred this case to the full court was because it judged that an in-depth discussion was needed on the search and seizure procedure and the issue of guaranteeing the public's right to defense. It is significant in that a check on the investigative agencies' compulsory investigation practices has been implemented, called a constitutional appeal. Attorney Kim hoped that this judgment would be a milestone that puts a brake on the expedient use of warrants by investigative agencies. He said, “This should serve as an opportunity for the National Assembly and the courts to carefully consider human rights and legislate and adjudicate,” and added, “If basic rights are restricted by state public power, the right to confirm and defend the legal basis must be guaranteed.” Lastly, he did not forget to make a request to citizens who will be unfairly investigated by investigative agencies. Attorney Kim advised, “At the scene of a compulsory investigation, we must not be intimidated by state power and confidently demand our rights through due process.” Reporter Hwang Jeong-won (garden@sidae.com)[View full article] Controversy over search and seizure of witnesses... “Investigation convenience cannot take precedence over people’s basic rights” (Shortcut) 2026-05-14T07:21:18.440Z https://www.daeryunlaw.com/en/broadcast/6303 If you were accused of a sex crime after a night of drinking while your memory was blurry, you would be embarrassed. The first concern that comes to mind at this time is 'Can a person be punished even in a situation where he or she has no memory?' In fact, many court cases occur in situations where memory is disrupted while drunk. In particular, when the victim claims, 'I have no memory, but I feel like I was harmed,' the suspect's response becomes very complicated. From the suspect's perspective, the first legal standard to pay attention to is the credibility of the statement. Investigative agencies and courts closely examine whether the victim's statement is specific and consistent. We also review whether the victim's claim matches objective circumstances such as call records and travel routes. Even if the victim claims to have “lost memory,” the charge will not be acknowledged if the circumstances surrounding it are unnatural. Therefore, the suspect must focus on finding contradictions in the other party's statements. The judgment of 'impossibility to resist' is also a point that the suspect must actively defend. This is because quasi-rape, etc., can only be established if it is acknowledged that the victim was in a state of being unable to resist. However, simply being intoxicated does not immediately determine inability to resist. The court closely examines the victim's actions, conversations, and movement routes. For example, if there are circumstances in which the victim continued the conversation normally or moved on his own, this will have a significant impact on the judgment. In the end, the key is not the fact of being 'drunk' per se, but the specific proof of what the state was at the time. Responding to sexual crime cases is not a matter of piecemeal facts, but a battle of the entire trend. A conclusion cannot be reached based solely on one side’s one-sided argument. You can win only when your actions before and after the incident and objective data are connected into a single story. If you want to get rid of unfair charges, it is not enough to simply plead that there was no intent. It is essential to organize the situation in detail chronologically and secure data to support it. Attorney Park Jeong-gu of Daeryun Law Firm explained, “It is easy to think that statements are everything in a sex crime case, but in reality, whether they match the evidence is much more important.” In particular, it was emphasized that in cases of sexual crimes that occurred while drinking, the key issue is whether the context continues uninterruptedly and naturally rather than whether there are fragmentary memories. He added, “The court judges guilt or innocence based on objective proof of facts, not whether the suspect remembers.” He added, “If you are being wrongly accused, you should avoid emotional responses, and it is important to respond thoroughly with objective data and consistent explanations with the help of legal experts from the beginning of the investigation.”[View full article] When it comes to sex crimes under the influence, ‘objective circumstances’ rather than fragmentary memories determine the outcome (link) 2026-05-14T02:45:56.351Z https://www.daeryunlaw.com/en/broadcast/6302 Lawyer Kim Young-soo of Daeryun Law Firm filed a complaint against the Supreme Court and was a witness in the death of Sergeant Lee Ye-ram... A copy of the warrant was not received at the time of search, so the quasi-appeal and re-appeal were dismissed... “If you are not a suspect, there is no obligation to issue a warrant.” “The witness is executed without knowing the English text, regardless of his or her own actions.” The full panel of the Constitutional Court will decide whether the practice of not providing a copy of a warrant when an investigative agency searches and seizes a witness who is not a suspect is unconstitutional. According to the legal community on the 13th, the designated tribunal of the Constitutional Court decided on the 12th to refer the case filed against the Supreme Court by lawyer Kim Young-soo of Daeryun Law Firm to the full court. The case originated when Special Prosecutor Ahn Mi-young's team, which investigated the death of the late Sergeant Lee Ye-ram in 2022, seized and searched the residence and smartphone of Attorney Kim, who was a reference, and refused to issue a copy of the warrant. According to Daeryun, Attorney Kim pointed out in the application submitted to the Constitutional Court that the investigative agency's interpretation of the law is in direct violation of the constitutional right to equality and the principles of due process. Attorney Kim emphasized, “A suspect is a person who has become the subject of an investigation due to his or her actions and is subject to the execution of a warrant, whereas a reference person is executed without knowing the meaning of the case, regardless of his or her actions.” He also emphasized, “The reference person should be seen as being in a position where the principles of due process and the right to seek trial are procedurally guaranteed,” adding, “In particular, he pointed out the realistic problem that if there is no copy of the warrant, the actual right to defense of the confiscated person is neutralized.” Attorney Kim explained the situation at the time, saying, “The applicant cannot remember the contents of the dozens of pages of the warrant, so if a copy was not possible, he requested that he be allowed to film the warrant or make notes on its main contents, but this was also rejected.” He then complained, “It was not possible to confirm whether the execution of the search and seizure warrant was carried out within the legal scope in relation to the facts of the crime stated in the warrant.” He also strongly refuted the claim of ‘secrecy in the investigation’ that the investigative agency uses as the main justification for refusing to issue copies. He pointed out, “There is no difference between investigation secrets disclosed by presenting a search and seizure warrant and investigation secrets disclosed by issuing a copy.” Furthermore, he strongly criticized, “Giving a copy of the warrant to a suspect suspected of a crime but denying it to an innocent reference on the grounds of confidentiality of the investigation is an incoherent action.” Previously, the court ruled that the investigative agency had no obligation to issue a copy of the warrant to a third party other than the suspect in the pre-indictment investigation stage, so it dismissed Attorney Kim’s quasi-appeal and re-appeal one after another. The Constitutional Court plans to make a final decision on whether the provisions of the Criminal Procedure Act are unconstitutional and whether Attorney Kim's fundamental rights are violated through a hearing by the full bench.

According to the legal community on the 12th, Guro Police Station in Seoul decided not to send A, a woman in her 40s, who was booked on charges of leaking trade secrets and violating copyright law on the 2nd of last month. Person A was accused of using lecture materials acquired in the process of being entrusted with instructor management duties from Mr. B, an education program producer last year, in her own lectures without permission. Ms. B. Mr. B claimed that various materials such as educational proposals, textbooks, and activity sheets were delivered to Mr. A, and that Mr. A subsequently stole these materials without permission to create lecture content and imitated the lecture method using audio-visual materials. Although it is true that Mr. A received the materials from Mr. B, he claimed that he had previously taught classes using audio-visual materials. In addition, it was explained that the activity sheet used in the lecture was not an unauthorized use of Mr. B's data, but was drafted using artificial intelligence (AI) and composed in a universal way. The police determined that the material used by Mr. A in the lecture had already been distributed to numerous instructors and students at many educational institutions and used as actual teaching materials, so it was only public data and did not constitute a trade secret leak. It was held that the teaching method using audio-visual materials, the order of class composition, etc. fall into the area of ​​ideas and are not subject to copyright protection. Attorney Daewon Kim of the Daeryun Law Firm, who represented Mr. A, explained, "Copyright applies not to the abstract idea itself, but to specific and detailed expressions. We were able to get a decision not to send the case by actively explaining that the content that Mr. B took issue with was nothing more than an idea that anyone could borrow because it is a universal method for education."

The act of checking the facts of the previous academy to confirm the false experience of the hired academy instructor was not considered illegal. Some people have an optimistic interpretation of this, saying, "Now it is okay to ask applicants about their previous employers' reputations without their knowledge," but if this is fully accepted, it could lead to significant legal risks for companies, so special caution is needed. First, not only should we keep in mind that the Dispute Mediation Committee's decision is merely a mediation decision with no legal binding, unlike court rulings, but we must also accurately understand the scope of this Dispute Mediation Committee's decision. The core of the case was not ‘reputation’ but ‘authenticity of career’. In other words, the act of verifying objective facts, such as the period of employment or position listed on the resume, is considered part of a legitimate hiring process and is permitted as an exception. However, if you go beyond this and go into the area of ​​collecting subjective evaluations of applicants' tendencies, work abilities, and conduct, the story is different. According to Article 2, Paragraph 1 (b) of the Personal Information Protection Act, a third party's subjective evaluation, such as an individual's inclination or performance, is strictly personal information if it can be combined with other information to identify a specific individual. Therefore, if a hiring company collects personality evaluations beyond the scope of fact-checking, such as "What was the applicant's work attitude like" or "What was the friction with co-workers or specific reasons for leaving the company?" As the information was collected, it violates Article 15, Paragraph 1 of the Personal Information Protection Act, and the former employer who provided the information is likely to violate Article 17 or Article 18, Paragraph 1 of the same Act by providing personal information to a third party beyond the scope of collection purpose. Therefore, not only the former employer who provided the information, but also the hiring company that unfairly collected the information cannot be free from criminal punishment or fines. In particular, asking for sensitive information, such as union membership or health status, may result in more severe sanctions as it is sensitive information subject to separate and heavier regulations (Article 23 of the Personal Information Protection Act). Furthermore, in addition to criminal liability, there is another risk factor called civil liability for damages. Even though a simple reputation inquiry does not directly fall under the category of 'interfering with employment' under Article 40 of the Labor Standards Act, the judiciary applies strict standards to acts that violate an applicant's right to self-determination of personal information. In fact, the Seoul High Court (2018na2073790) recognized a company that went beyond its reasonable discretion and conducted an unobjective review search on only certain applicants liable for damages due to illegal acts on the grounds that it lost the fairness of the hiring process and violated the applicant's reasonable expectation and trust of receiving a fair evaluation. Ultimately, verification to select excellent talent is essential for companies, but the practice of negative background checks with a weak legal basis is difficult to protect within the current compliance monitoring system. Forcing an arbitrary investigation by misinterpreting the Dispute Mediation Committee's decision as an 'indulgence' can be an act that undermines the legitimacy of the recruitment process. In order to eliminate the possibility of unnecessary disputes at the source, legal and human resources managers must clearly notify the possibility of conducting reputation checks at the recruitment screening stage and institutionalize the process of seeking official 'written consent' from applicants that specifies the purpose of collection and use, collection items, retention period, right to refuse consent, and disadvantages (Article 15 of the Personal Information Protection Act) Paragraph 2). It should be kept in mind that a company's core strategy of securing excellent talent can only be justified when thorough legal safety measures are preemptively established.

HR compliance that protects companies (Go here) 2026-05-14T04:20:56.325Z https://www.daeryunlaw.com/en/broadcast/6299 Attorney Kim Min-soo of Daeryun Law Firm: The Road Traffic Act stipulates that a blood alcohol concentration of 0.08% or higher is the standard for driver's license cancellation. If a higher figure than this is confirmed during the drunk driving crackdown, the majority will decide that the result cannot be reversed and give up. However, driver's license cancellation is not decided solely by mechanical numbers. This is because the facts on which administrative dispositions are based must be supported by objective evidence. Recently, the Incheon District Court made a reasonable ruling reaffirming this legal principle. The client was caught drunk while driving a two-wheeled vehicle, and his blood alcohol content was 0.418%. This figure is five times higher than the standard for license cancellation, and is a dangerous level that is accompanied by decreased consciousness or breathing difficulties. The police revoked the driver's license based on this. The client applied for an administrative trial separately from the criminal case, but it was also dismissed, and an administrative lawsuit was filed. The lawyers in charge of the lawsuit checked the CCTV at the time to understand the situation at the time. The client drove according to the traffic lights and was also seen steering the wheel to avoid a taxi that suddenly appeared at the intersection. There were also circumstances that were far from intoxicated, such as having a clear conversation with a police officer who was dispatched after being caught drunk. Based on this, the lawyers in charge emphasized that the breathalyzer test values ​​did not correspond to the actual state at the time. As a result, the court ruled in favor of the client by ruling to cancel the driver's license cancellation. This was the result of a comprehensive examination of the contradictions between the breathalyzer test values ​​and the actual circumstances at the time. The court found that based on the submitted evidence alone, there was no evidence to admit that the client drove the vehicle while intoxicated more than 0.08%. This is an example that clearly shows that more serious administrative measures must be based on objective data and legal procedures. In practice, there are many cases where response is given up simply because the drunkenness control number was high. However, the obvious discrepancy between mechanical breathalyzer test values ​​and actual driving conditions is a critical basis for destroying the reliability of the results. Therefore, it is most important to quickly secure objective data to prove the actual situation, such as a black box containing the driving route at the time of the crackdown or conversations with nearby CCTV police officers. If you do not succumb to the pressure of the breathalyzer test results and legally prove the gap between the actual truth and the data, you can be relieved from the harsh punishment of license revocation. In particular, driver's license revocation is often directly related to livelihood. Therefore, if there are unfair circumstances, rather than concluding that “the shame has come out and it is over,” efforts should be made to uncover the substantive truth by carefully reconstructing the objective circumstances with legal experts. ● Contributions by external writers may differ from our editorial direction.

Reasonable Judgment (Shortcut) 2026-05-14T05:53:14.214Z https://www.daeryunlaw.com/en/broadcast/6298 He was in charge of collecting and delivering cash, but claimed, “I believed it was normal debt collection work.” The court said, “There is insufficient evidence that he was aware of the crime… It is difficult to rule out reasonable suspicion.” A man in his 30s who received a job offer through a job search site and was accused of being an accomplice to voice phishing after working to collect cash was acquitted in the first trial. The Seoul Central District Court acquitted Mr. A, who was put on trial in April on charges of violating the Special Act on Prevention of Damage from Telecommunications and Financial Fraud and Refund of Damages. He was sentenced. After posting his resume on a job search site last year, Mr. A received an offer from a credit company official saying, “If you receive cash to be repaid by debtors and deliver it, you will be paid a per-case allowance,” and was accused of participating in the crime of a voice phishing organization by delivering about 170 million won. The prosecution said that Mr. A used a pseudonym and received cash from victims in the name of repayment of existing loans, government-backed refinancing loans, and card accident prevention, and then delivered it to the organization. It was judged that he was in charge. Mr. A completely denied the charges. He claimed that he only recognized it as normal loan-related outside work and had no knowledge that it was a phone financial fraud crime. He explained that the business registration number and company address were actually listed on the Internet homepage, and that it was difficult to suspect because it was operated like a regular company. The court ruled in Mr. A's favor. The court ruled, “It is difficult to conclude that the defendant was immediately aware of the crime of voice phishing based on the fact that he collected and delivered cash,” and “The submitted evidence alone is insufficient to suggest that the defendant had the intention of colluding or aiding and abetting.” He continued, “The defendant returned to Korea after living overseas and did not have much social experience in Korea, and there were circumstances that could have led to the misconception that it was an actual company in light of the employment offer through a job search site, company name information, and systematic work reporting method.” He added, “It is difficult to say that it was immediately known that it was a crime just by the type of work.” Attorney Jang Hyun-ji of Daeryun Law Firm, who represented Mr. A, said, “In order to establish co-principal crime, it must be proven that they knew the structure of the organization’s crime, shared roles, and shared the intention to commit the crime.” He added, “In this case, it was difficult to recognize a collusion relationship because the client believed it was normal debt collection work and acted according to instructions, so it was difficult to acknowledge the relationship of conspiracy.” “There must have been an intention to help, but the client had no such intention,” he explained. “After explaining all the circumstances, including the hiring process, work method, and living environment, we were able to receive a not guilty verdict.” whyjay@sportsseoul.comReporter Shin Jae-yu[View full article] Accused of engaging in voice phishing after applying to a job search site...

We were just in the same class at the beginning of the semester, We didn't even know each other's phone numbers and didn't say a word to each other.. One day, at the end of recess, A student from another class came in to borrow a textbook.. AHe threw the book towards the door to hand it over., Due to lack of strength, the book was sitting in the middle, unable to reach the door. Bfell on both sides. AThe military immediately apologized., BThe amount was passed over without much notice..But a few days later, AThe military was reported as a perpetrator of school violence. A criminal complaint for special injury followed.. BThe sheep's parents AI misunderstood that the military intentionally threw the book at my daughter.. "They have been bullying and bullying my daughter since last year."Hundreds of pages of material to this effect were submitted to schools and investigative agencies.. The result was acquittal and no action.. But in the meantime AHe couldn't go to school for a few days., There was a rumor at school that he was a perpetrator.. AThe amount of money the military's parents spent on attorney fees amounted to tens of millions of won..someone "How can that be school violence?"I can ask back. However, such cases are not uncommon in schools today.. Every minor conflict and misunderstanding that occurs in the classroom is subject to a school violence committee and administrative judgment., Korean society has already entered the stage where things go through administrative litigation and then into the courts.. The judiciary also began to move along with the trend.. In the process of handling school violence, the gap in parents' economic power was revealed. The Seoul Administrative Court last year 2A court dedicated to school violence cases was established in January. 2in a place 4to the place 2I increased my stomach. 2026This measure was taken in response to a surge in related lawsuits as school violence measures were mandatory starting from college entrance exams each school year.. The longer the conclusion of the lawsuit filed against the decision is delayed, the greater the impact on student records and entrance exam schedules., The court also has no choice but to speed up processing.. In fact, lawsuits related to school violence in Seoul are 2022year 51last year in 134By the matter, 3between years 2.6doubled.It’s not just a phenomenon in Seoul either.. 10According to the status of school violence review and appeal procedures obtained exclusively from the Ministry of Education by the Japanese Sisa Journal reporter,, School Violence Countermeasures Review Committee(Below is the academic violence committee) The number of deliberations is 2021school year 1only5653In the gun 2024school year 2only7835By the matter 4After years 77.8% There was a sharp increase. Every year on the school violence committee 1Ten thousand cases are piling up.. This means that the amount of conflict occurring at school flowing into administrative procedures has exceeded the critical point..As deliberations piled up, the number of complaints increased.. During the same period, the administrative judgment request filed by the offending student was 875In the gun 1261By the matter, Administrative litigation 107In the gun 241increased in cases. What is noteworthy is the structure of disobedience.. Claim from victim student(10→3case)Comparatively speaking, the offending student's disobedience(107→241case) Frequency of use is consistently high. In particular, applications for suspension of execution 2024The offending student in the school year 583While the case was filed, the victim 11It's just a matter 53showed a gap of two times.Suspension of execution is a procedure that suspends the effectiveness of school violence measures until the merits of the case are judged.. If the implementation of measures is delayed, the timing of entry into the school record will be delayed., The impact on entrance exams is also reduced.. Moreover, some universities follow government guidelines. 2025As school violence records began to be proactively reflected starting from the school year,, The older students are, who are more sensitive to entrance exams, the more likely they are to file lawsuits.. The purpose of disobedience 'Cancel disposition' than itself 'buy time'This is why the diagnosis that it is close to is coming out in the field..Behind the surge in lawsuits lies the increase in damage reports themselves.. Ministry of Education '2025year 1Primary School Violence Survey'If you look at, Students who complained of school violence 2022year 5only3600number of people, 2024year 6only7700number of people, 2025year 8only1500Number of people increased every year. 3year new 1.5It has doubled..The changed attitude of parents these days also plays a role in the fact that reports lead directly to court.. Even issues that in the past were dismissed as children's pranks now lead to immediate reporting.. 'I was the only one who suffered'There are also frequent cases where even cases close to negligence on both sides are defined as violence.. There are many analyzes that it is based on overprotection or special affection for an only child.. Shin Hye-seong, lawyer specializing in school violence(Former Seoul Family Court Judge)Is "In the past, there was an atmosphere where the parents of the perpetrator apologized, but, now 'You are also responsible for what I did wrong.'A common response like"explained.As legal responses became standardized, the process of dealing with school violence became a stage where economic disparities were revealed.. Parents who can afford to pay legal fees fight until the end., Parents who fail to do so end up giving in even though they are not at fault.. A parent of a victim said "The cost of psychological counseling was subsidized by the Office of Education, which eased the burden., The cost of litigation was burdensome.. Parents of victims of school violence raised money and filed a lawsuit"He said. We have reached a stage where even the affected parents must cover the costs through joint investment to fight within the system..Especially when disobeying school violence measures., Parents become more impatient than the parties concerned. Daewon Kim, attorney at Daeryun Law Firm(Former Incheon Southern Office of Education School Violence Measures Review Committee member)Is "In order to change the outcome of school violence, it is necessary to prove significant deviation or abuse of discretion., This is no easy task"and said. To make matters worse, when criminal cases are combined, the school violence committee is opened late or reopened after seeing the results of the criminal cases., For parents who do not have the psychological and financial resources, the pain only deepens..The more fundamental problem pointed out by legal experts who have seen school violence incidents up close goes into this one step further.. The school violence handling system itself 'Extreme perpetrators and extreme victims'It was designed with the assumption that. separate immediately, school suspension, Strong measures such as no contact are necessary to protect the students who are truly harmed.. However, Attorney Shin "Conflicts increase as the same measures are uniformly applied to cases that are close to false reports or to very minor incidents."points out.One case he argued was an elementary school. 6It happened among female students in grade. The incident in which some students sent an unpleasant note to a friend was recognized as school violence., During the reporting process, past friends "fool"Even the jokes that were teased were all dragged out.. In the end, even students who had nothing to do with the message were reported as perpetrators., Some of them are 'Not school violence' It was only after receiving the disposition that I was able to escape the procedure.. Lawyer Shin "When you were young, even if you and your friends got into a fight, didn't you make up the next day?"as "Nowadays, the moment a parent reports, separation is applied immediately and they are not even given a chance to apologize."and said.Where communication is lost, the gap in perception deepens.. The person identified as the perpetrator wants to apologize, but there is no way., The person who reported as a victim gets angry without receiving an apology.. Lawyer Shin "There are many cases where both parents are reasonable people."Although "However, even contact information is not shared., During the time of disconnection, the other child becomes increasingly perceived as a bad child."said.dispute 1Teachers' seats have become smaller in classrooms where cars are used.. After school violence issues were unified under the jurisdiction of the Office of Education, there was almost no room for teachers to directly intervene.. Lawyer Shin "Teachers can see who is unfairly treated."Although "If you side with the wronged party, it is common for the other parent to come to school and yell at you., In the end, there are many cases where we just walk away without taking anyone's side."He said. He said that in cases where minor cases go to court,, In most cases, there is a problem with one or both parents of the perpetrator or victim.. The burden is passed entirely on to the teacher..The unification of the Office of Education itself is a product of trial and error.. At one time, individual schools held their own school violence committees.. As responsibility was vested in the school principal, there was also a positive aspect of attempting to resolve the issue independently at the school level.. However, as procedures such as committee composition and convening notification were carried out by non-legal experts, procedural defects occurred frequently.. Lawyer Shin "Even though it is a matter that could be recognized as school violence, there have been accumulated cases of decisions being broken in administrative litigation due to procedural flaws."as "A vicious cycle was created where the school felt burdened by having to impose the same measures again, so it retreated to lighter measures."said. Unification was a response to side effects, but, As a result, his diagnosis is that both fieldwork and expertise have been lost.. "The school must take center stage and encourage mediation and reconciliation."Nevertheless, the common opinion of experts is that the school should hold the key to the problem.. It is pointed out that the school's neglect of its role lies behind the fact that the response to school violence has been swayed by the logic of the legal market.. Attorney Daewon Kim "The original purpose of the school violence system is to nurture the perpetrators into healthy members of society by guiding them and resolving disputes."He said "To achieve this, active intervention by the school is essential., In reality, the field is ignoring this responsibility due to administrative burden."pointed out.In fact, in some schools, when an issue occurs, the incident is minimized or concealed., On the contrary, there is a strong tendency to mechanically hand it over to the school violence committee without educational guidance.. A place where educational solutions that need to be achieved within the classroom have disappeared., This is replaced by dry administrative procedures.. Attorney Kim "Ultimately, both victims and perpetrators are objects of protection that schools must embrace and teach."He called for a responsible role for the school.. Then he "School shouldn’t just be a place to process paperwork"as "The school must take the center stage from the beginning of the issue and find educational solutions first, such as encouraging mediation and reconciliation between students and parents."suggested.It is clear why the role of schools is urgent.. Once violence occurs, This is because no system or law can completely erase the scars left on a child.. There are many cases where the victim transfers or leaves school., Some people end up making extreme choices and end their lives.. This has nothing to do with the social status or reputation of the family..A clear example is the story of actor Kwon Oh-joong.. He recently spoke on a broadcast about his son, who suffers from a rare disease, being a victim of school violence.. He sobbed as he relayed the pain of his son, who had glass stuck in his throat and had to crawl to the bathroom.. "It can happen because children are young."I said it calmly, but, The heart of a father who had to take his bleeding son to the emergency room finally broke down..Therefore, the increase in the number of courts dedicated to school violence is more of a reactive response to increasing disputes.. The problems experts point out are also at a stage before the dispute reaches court.. established by the system 'extreme school violence'The gap between the conflict and reality, Lack of expertise at the deliberation stage, And that is the lack of communication in the classroom..I go back to that classroom again. A book thrown at the end of recess, If it were at school, it would have ended with an apology.. However, while the system has closed off the space for that single word to be exchanged,, The case finally reached the court after going through administrative trials and administrative litigation.. Ultimately, the way to reduce court workload is not to increase the number of judges.. It begins with giving back to the school the place where one word can come and go.. MZ Parents have changed 'How to respond to school violence'…Teachers in litigation war 'white flag'In school settings, there are repeated complaints that the mediation function in the classroom has virtually been paralyzed.. In Hwaseong-si, Gyeonggi-do 8A teacher surnamed Kim who has been working for 2 years.(female·35)In a phone call with Sisa Journal, "Even when students reconcile, there are many cases where parents refuse to apologize until the end and insist on taking legal action."as "These days, when it comes to school violence, teachers often withdraw their hands.. In some cases, teachers are held accountable for incorrect intervention."and said. In addition to the burden of having to testify as a witness,, In the process of dealing with school violence, the number of cases where teachers are the target of raising issues is increasing, and the space for mediation in the classroom is becoming increasingly narrow..In a situation where even teachers have given up their hands, where can parents of victims of school violence turn?. Sisa Journal 4month20From work 4month30Parents whose children are victims of school violence met while working 3Each person’s story was different, but "The most realistic measure at this stage is to leave a record in the student record."They all agreed in one voice:. This means that in a situation where mediation in the classroom does not work, the only institutional mechanism that parents can rely on is the student record..Parents of victims "Leaving a record in the student record is a realistic remedy."have children in elementary school AMr. "Punishment is needed not only for the instigators of school violence but also for all students who participated.. Isn't it something that can be reversed when children's hearts are hurt?"and said. he is "I found out as the investigation began.. That the child was dealing with all the perpetrators and the conscienceless school administration alone."He said "I resent myself for forcing a child to go to school when he said he didn't want to go to school."said.Similar feelings of helplessness were felt by other parents as well.. have children in middle school BMr. "When a child refuses to go to school, there is a reason.. However, the school's position was different."as "My child was assaulted and cursed at., The perpetrator 1call disposition(written apology)ended up receiving. Now I'm thinking of moving for my child."said. Having a child in high school CMr. too "The school's response to my child who was assaulted was a written apology.. A world where only those who are harmed are treated unfairly"He said "The disposition is too light compared to suffering a lifetime of trauma and destroying the family together."It was said.In order to hear both sides' positions, reporters contacted the parents of students identified as perpetrators of school violence. DI also met Mr.. DMr. "The student who claimed damage and my child were originally close friends."as "However, at some point, he formed solidarity with other students and suddenly started blaming my child as the perpetrator."claimed that.he is "Reporting to a broadcasting station without confirming the facts, They are only making one-sided claims against the media."as "They are even threatening to file a civil lawsuit., This only appears to be an intention to completely ruin the child's life rather than an explanation through the school violence committee, which is a legitimate procedure."He complained.actually DIt was confirmed that Mr.'s children and the victims had a long-standing bond as seniors and juniors in the sports department.. The specific facts will be determined through future legal battles., DThe position is that much of what is currently known has been maliciously exaggerated.. However, in a situation where one is already labeled as a perpetrator, DYour child's place at school has virtually disappeared.. DHe claimed that he had the impression that the school and the school violence committee were already treating his children as criminals and moving forward with a conclusion even before the investigation was completed..The problem is that the arguments of both sides run parallel paths., Even before the true nature of the incident is revealed, the emotional rift between parents deepens to an irreparable level.. This acts as a decisive obstacle to reconciliation between the parties.. Education sites also complain of frustration.. The teacher surnamed Kim mentioned earlier "From the teacher's perspective, there is no way he would feel at ease because both the perpetrator and the victim are the same students."Even though "If you support one side's position, you may be caught up in responsibility, so it is realistically impossible to actively engage in mediation."He confessed.

Applies to a wide range of requests, including emails and electronic data. 'Group authentication procedure' is also an issue. The first date of the US class action lawsuit for damages worth $5 million (approximately KRW 7.3 billion) filed by users in connection with the 'Coupang personal information leak' incident will begin in June at the federal court in Brooklyn, New York. As the discovery process begins to force the wide disclosure of the other party's information before a full-scale trial, attention is being paid to whether Coupang's internal response process and personal information status will be disclosed in court. At the initial conference, the main issues of the case, scope of evidence discovery, and future litigation schedule are expected to be discussed based on the 'Joint Discovery Plan' submitted by the plaintiff and defendant. The class action suit (punitive damages) filed by Daeryun Law Firm's U.S. partner law firm SJKP against Coupang Inc and Coupang Inc Chairman Kim Beom-seok in February is scheduled for a full-scale hearing in the U.S. court. Both sides plan to submit a 'joint discovery plan' to the court in June, and the first trial will be held at the Brooklyn Federal Court presided over by Judge Marcia M. Henry. The joint discovery plan is a document that organizes and discusses in advance which materials will be disclosed and investigated in the future, to what scope and in what manner, and is prepared based on Article 26 of the U.S. Federal Rules of Civil Procedure (FRCP). This means that the legal verification stage of Coupang's internal data and management's decision-making process begins in earnest, rather than a simple procedure. In particular, the first date is not a place to simply discuss formal procedures, but a process in which the court quickly organizes the issues of the case and future schedule. U.S. federal litigation differs from Korean civil litigation in that the court is actively involved in case management from the beginning, and information disclosure procedures between the parties are also extensive. This lawsuit seeks responsibility for the Coupang personal information leak that occurred in November 2025, and the compensation claim is worth $5 million. The plaintiff claims that Chairman Kim did not fulfill his obligation to protect customer information as the final decision-maker of security policy and was insufficient in establishing and managing the security system. Additionally, it is believed that Coupang Inc was negligent in violating its personal information protection obligations and that this constitutes a violation of implied contract and unjust enrichment. Violation of New York State's Deceptive Business Practices Prohibition Act was also cited as the main cause of claim. The plaintiffs in the class action lawsuit were composed of U.S. citizens Mr. Lee and Ms. Park as representative plaintiffs, and over 7,800 domestic Coupang users were set up as a separate class. Dong-hoo Son, an American lawyer at Daeryun Law Firm, said, "A class action lawsuit is structured in that a representative plaintiff files a lawsuit on behalf of all who have suffered similar damages. In reality, many more victims are included in the scope of validity of the lawsuit." He continued, "The total number of people ultimately included in the scope of validity of the lawsuit will be officially confirmed through the court's class certification process in the future, and the possibility that the number of victims will further increase in the process cannot be ruled out." In addition, Attorney Son said, "The majority of victims will be harmed by representative plaintiffs during future trials." It is expected that the class certification process, which determines whether it can be commonly applied to victims, will be an important procedural gateway. Attorney Son explains that in the future, the main issues will likely be the details of the defendant's actions, whether or not actual damage occurred and the extent of damage, and the possibility of Chairman Kim's individual admission of responsibility. Meanwhile, Coupang's U.S. investors, including Greenox and Altimity, submitted a letter of intent to arbitrate an international investment dispute (ISDS) against the Korean government in January. They reportedly claimed that they suffered investment losses during the Korean government's fact-finding investigation into the Coupang personal information leak, and that the Korean government violated its fair and equitable treatment obligations under the Korea-U.S. Free Trade Agreement (FTA). In the ISDS procedure, the letter of intent to arbitrate is a document in which an investor notifies the state in advance of its intention to file a dispute. After submitting a letter of intent, both sides usually negotiate for 90 days, and the negotiation period, called the 'cooling period', ended on the 22nd of last month.

This webinar was prepared to analyze the tariff refund process, which has recently begun in earnest following the U.S. Supreme Court's recent ruling that the International Emergency Economic Powers Act (IEEPA) was illegal, and to explore companies' preemptive trade risk response strategies. At this event, executives from foreign companies as well as managers from legal, financial, and SCM departments participated and showed great interest. In the first session, Myeong Jae-ho, a customs expert, presented as a speaker on the topic of the U.S. IEEPA tariff refund system and the latest practical trends. Commissioner Myeong explained the step-by-step application scope and practical procedures of the 'CAPE (Consolidated Administration and Processing of Entries)' system, the online refund portal of the U.S. Customs and Border Protection (CBP), which began operation on the 20th of last month. Commissioner Myeong emphasized, "This refund is not an automatic refund according to the Supreme Court ruling, and can only be received if the official importer (IOR) applies directly through the CAPE system." He also advised that securing a financial account in the United States is essential, and that separate procedural alternatives, such as objections, should be prepared quickly to respond to cases that are not subject to application for the system. In the second session, foreign attorney Dong-hoo Son (USA) gave a lecture focusing on major issues after refunds. Attorney Son requested an approach that clearly separates the actual receipt structure of the refund and the legal attribution structure. Attorney Son pointed out, "In DDP (Duty Paid Delivery) transactions, etc., if the IOR on paper and the actual duty bearer are different, there is a risk that the refund will be paid preferentially to the entity other than the economic bearer." He continued, "To prevent such disputes, the pre-contract structure such as rights transfer and profit sharing should be closely organized and the transaction linked to Articles 301 and 232 of the Trade Act. “We also need to comprehensively examine trade risks in the future,” he emphasized. Kim Kuk-il, CEO of Daeryun Management, said, “This webinar was an opportunity to look at the practical pitfalls and structural risks that foreign companies may face in a situation where refund opportunities worth approximately $166 billion (KRW 244 trillion) are open.” He added, “I hope that in the future, companies will clearly establish who is legally attributable and secure logical consistency to prepare for the unfolding trade wave.” Eunhye Lee (zhses3@joseilbo.com)[View full article] “The path to refund 244 trillion won in U.S. tariffs has been opened”… Daeryun, Customs Refund/Trade Webinar Successfully Completed (Go here) 2026-05-14T05:21:50.627Z https://www.daeryunlaw.com/en/broadcast/6294 Recently, the legal market is demanding close services and advanced expertise beyond simple legal dispute representation..

This is the result of the spread of a complacent perception that regards unauthorized use of other people's preferential cards as a minor deviation or a misdemeanor. However, from the perspective of legal practice, fraudulent use is a property crime in which the risks are overwhelmingly greater than the actual benefits. This is because it is a serious illegal act that goes beyond a simple violation of terms and conditions and carries with it a high civil liability for compensation and criminal punishment. More than 80% of all illegal rides are cases of unauthorized use of discount cards belonging to family members or acquaintances. You may think that it's okay if you don't get caught on site, but the reality is different. This is because not only is the target identified by age-specific signals when passing through the ticket gate, but it is also linked to CCTV footage in real time. As a lawyer, the most difficult part to defend is computer log records. The defense that “it was brought by mistake” loses its legal effect in the face of several months of theft history remaining in the data. The primary price to be paid when illegal riding is detected is a punitive additional fare based on the Railway Business Act and Passenger Transport Terms and Conditions. You must pay an amount equivalent to 30 times the fare for the section. What is especially important is that it does not end with a one-time detection. If continuous unauthorized boarding in the past is identified through a check on boarding and disembarking history, a retroactive charge in the form of a return of unfair profits will be made for all past usage. In practice, there are frequent cases of people being forcibly executed for millions of won while trying to save a small amount of freight. Criminal liability is even more severe. The act of using paid facilities without fair compensation falls under Article 348-2 of the Criminal Act, ‘Illegal use of convenience facilities.’ If you actively deceive someone else by arbitrarily presenting their ID card, you may be charged with forgery of a private document, coexistence, and even fraud. It is a matter that can result in a fine or even a prison sentence, and it should not be overlooked that it can turn into a criminal case that leaves a criminal record rather than an administrative fine. If you are in a legal crisis due to an unexpected discovery, you must develop a practical response strategy rather than an emotional appeal. Unreasonable denial of charges in a situation where there is clear physical evidence only becomes the basis for aggravated punishment in future criminal proceedings. We accept what needs to be acknowledged, but we must consider whether the scope of the civil unjust enrichment claim is legally sound. If all past records can be analyzed to see if they were stolen and the actual violation section can be separated, fines amounting to millions of won can be significantly reduced. At the criminal stage, focus should be placed on preventing conflicting charges. A strategic response is essential to minimize charges by proving that the investigation was not habitual from the beginning or by quickly completing compensation for damages. The best defense is to logically explain the situation based on objective evidence and reach an amicable agreement so that a single mistake does not lead to lifelong stains or unbearable property losses.

The moment a cheating trick becomes a crime (Shortcut) 2026-05-14T04:04:45.797Z https://www.daeryunlaw.com/en/broadcast/6292 “There is an exception for car drunk driving, but it is clearly unfair not to have a kickboard.” An administrative judgment ruled that the one-year restriction on reacquiring a driver's license for a person who was caught driving an electric kickboard while drunk and paid a fine was excessive. The Central Administrative Appeals Commission imposed a fine of 100,000 won and license cancellation on Mr. A, who was caught driving an electric kickboard, a personal mobility device, while drunk in November last year. Afterwards, Mr. A He attempted to apply for a test to obtain a license again, but the Corporation did not accept the application, saying that the one-year period of disqualification had not passed. Accordingly, Mr. A filed an administrative appeal, saying that since there is an exception clause in the Road Traffic Act that states that a ‘punishment less than a fine’ is confirmed, a license can be acquired even during the period of disqualification, the fine should be viewed with the same purpose. However, the Corporation maintained its position that the fine is not a punishment under the Criminal Act and therefore is not subject to an exception. The idea is that even if a fine is paid, the period of disqualification should still be applied. However, the Public Conduct Commission accepted Mr. A’s argument. The committee said, “Compared to drunk driving of a car or motorcycle, the reason for requiring payment of fines, detention, fines, etc. for drunk driving of a personal mobility device is to impose a light punishment because the risk is considered to be relatively low,” and added, “There is an exception rule that exempts the disqualification period for drunk driving of a car or motorcycle, which is more dangerous, but the absence of related regulations for kickboards is a clear legislative insufficiency.” It continued, “A person who meets and pays the fine cannot get a license right away, and conversely, he cannot meet the requirements. “If a person who has been criminally punished or refused to pay a fine and received a summary judgment can obtain a license, this is completely against the purpose of the system,” he explained, adding, “It is a contradictory situation in which only those who have paid the fine are disadvantaged.” Attorney Byeon Gwan-hoon of the Daeryun Law Firm, who represented Mr. “A deformed situation arises where a summary judgment is requested and punishment is induced,” he said. “We were able to obtain the cancellation of the disposition by actively demonstrating that it was a serious problem that ignores the legislative purpose of the penalty system, which is to reduce unnecessary judicial waste.” The Central Administrative Appeals Committee was established to hear and decide on judgment requests filed against the disposition or omission of central administrative agencies, special cities, metropolitan cities, provinces, and special local administrative agencies affiliated with the central administrative agency. It is a specialized administrative trial organization under the Anti-Corruption and Civil Rights Commission of the Republic of Korea. Meanwhile, accidents with drunk electric kickboards occur every year. In 2024, Mr. B was caught by the police after crashing into an SUV while driving an electric kickboard while drinking at an intersection in Songdo International City, Yeonsu-gu, Incheon, after violating a traffic signal. At the time of the accident, Mr. B's blood alcohol content was found to be above 0.08%, which is the level for license cancellation. Also, at around 8 pm on August 31, 2025, a vehicle traveling straight on a road near an underpass in Deoki-dong, Ilsanseo-gu, Goyang-si, and Mr. C, a man in his 20s who was driving on an electric kickboard on a crosswalk while drunk, collided. Immediately after the accident, Mr. C fled the scene, and the police caught him at his residence. It was reported that Mr. C's blood alcohol level was at a level that would have resulted in his license being revoked.

Public Conduct Commission points out ‘lack of legislation’ (link) 2026-05-13T21:55:09.727Z https://www.daeryunlaw.com/en/broadcast/6291 The principle of tiller-ownership of farmland (Gyeongjayujeon, 耕者有田) is now at a critical turning point. This principle, which is rooted in Article 121 of the Constitution, stipulates that those who actually farm should own farmland, and was an expression of a strong will to prevent land monopoly by minority landlords and preserve farmland as a national asset. However, as the contemporary demands of ‘strict ownership and flexible use’ collide, a new phase in which opportunities and risks coexist is unfolding. The first thing that stands out is deregulation through ‘spatial reorganization’ of farmland. The government is absorbing urban residents' demand for ‘5 degrees and 2 villages’ by introducing a ‘rural residential shelter’ system from the end of 2025 to early 2026, allowing the installation of temporary accommodation of approximately 33㎡ without a permit for exclusive use of farmland. Regulations on smart farms and vertical farms have also been greatly relaxed, making it possible to install permanent facilities on farmland if certain requirements are met. This shows that farmland is evolving beyond simple farmland into a base for high value-added technology businesses. (Article 2, Paragraph 7 of the Farmland Act) Furthermore, the release of small-scale farmland (agricultural promotion area) of less than 3ha was permitted, opening the way to converting inefficient farmland into convenience and commercial facilities. As mentioned above, while regulations on farmland use have been relaxed, ownership regulations have actually become tighter. This is something to pay attention to in the current farmland system. First, at the acquisition stage, the examination for farmland acquisition qualifications was made practical, so acquisition by outsiders and purchase of shared shares were strictly restricted, and acquisition for weekend and experiential farming purposes in agricultural promotion areas was legally blocked. In addition, in the post-acquisition management stage, a real-time monitoring network combining drones, satellites, and administrative data is operated to constantly monitor uncultivated cultivation or illegal use. In particular, the enforcement fine imposed upon detection amounts to 25% of the land value, which is so punitive that an amount equivalent to the entire land value must be paid in just four years. Attorney Kim Gwang-deok of Daeryun Law Firm said, "In the end, the current farmland market is a place where 'doors of opportunity' and 'risk traps' coexist. Distributed acquisition or reckless neglect under family names can lead to criminal punishment beyond administrative disposition." He added, "Therefore, if you are planning a farmland-related business or considering inheritance or purchase, a legal review that analyzes relaxed regulatory conditions and strengthened punishment regulations in three dimensions must be preceded. Only legal acquisition and elaborate utilization plans can secure assets. “It is the only surety check that is protected, and the answer begins with the diagnosis of an expert who accurately understands the changed legal principles.”[View full article] A great turning point in farmland regulation, practical implications of Gyeongyujeop (耕者有田) (link) 2026-05-13T21:54:26.826Z https://www.daeryunlaw.com/en/broadcast/6290 After a safety accident occurred, an office worker who was sued for insult and defamation after claiming that “managers showed inappropriate behavior in the chat room” of an in-house group was cleared of the charges by the police. This is because the police judged that the article had a public purpose and the level of criticism was mild. According to the legal community on the 7th, the Asan Police Station in South Chungcheong Province decided not to forward Mr. A, who was booked on charges of insult and defamation in March. Mr. A was accused of posting a post defaming managers in the company's business group chat room in September of last year. At the time, Mr. A claimed through the article that some managers showed inappropriate attitudes by laughing and talking even though a fatal accident occurred within the company. Mr. A acknowledged that he wrote the article, but explained that it was not intended to slander. Mr. A's claim was that he wrote the article to raise an issue because he thought the safety insensitivity at the site was serious. The police decided not to forward the case after finding that there were no charges of insult or defamation. In relation to the charge of insult, the police determined that even if mild profanity or abstract expressions were used while expressing negative or critical opinions or feelings about the other person, it cannot be considered an expression that could infringe on external reputation unless there are special circumstances. In relation to defamation, since Mr. A claims that he heard about the actions of the managers and truly believed them, and that it was for the purpose of informing employees, it cannot be ruled out that there was a public purpose, so it was considered illegal. Lawyer Kim Hyun-soo of Daeryun Law Firm, who represented Mr. A, said, “Defamation and “In order to constitute a crime of insult, it is necessary to use expressions that are intended to slander and lower social evaluations. The post was intended to point out chronic insensitivity to safety, and the public interest was the main purpose, and the decision to not forward the case was made by emphasizing that the expression was also mild,” he explained.

In particular, as the number of cases of managing residence and assets together while traveling between Korea and the United States increases, there are many cases where unexpected variables are encountered and difficulties are expressed. The success or failure of asset transfer depends on the ‘process’ of moving it rather than the asset itself. This is why it is most important to check the risks of each process in advance. The first thing to check when transferring assets of a dual resident is 'legal status'. Korean tax law considers individuals domiciled in the country or staying there for more than 183 days as residents, while the United States considers not only citizens or permanent residents as residents, but also those who meet the Substantial Presence Test. In this way, if the standards of the two countries conflict, a person may be classified as a dual resident, and a complex situation arises in which the country of final residence must be determined according to the tie-breaker rule of the Korea-US tax treaty. In this case, even for the same assets, the tax scope and reporting obligations vary depending on which country the person is recognized as a resident of. There are many cases where one asset is evaluated by different standards in Korea and the United States due to the complex effects of the family's residence, location of assets, and center of economic activity. In addition, an important variable is the 'time of asset disposal'. Depending on when you sell your Korean assets before or after moving to the U.S., tax consequences can vary greatly. If a disposition is made after a change in resident status, the tax burden may increase larger than expected as the standards of both countries are applied simultaneously. In particular, in the case of selling Korean assets as a U.S. resident, the existing tax exemption for one home per household may be limited, which may lead to a substantial tax bomb. Restrictions at the physical 'procedure stage' should also be careful. For overseas residents, it is not easy to access the domestic administrative system, so there are many cases where the process is delayed from the initial stage due to restrictions on mobile phone authentication and problems with submitting original documents. However, these administrative restrictions can be largely resolved by representing the case through a lawyer. This is because business can be carried out without physical presence by submitting documents based on a power of attorney, registering real estate, and acting as an agent for financial procedures. However, what needs to be prepared for more fundamentally than these superficial administrative procedures is the gradually strengthening 'global regulatory risk'. Recently, as both Korea and the United States have strengthened management standards for asset holding and movement, 'transparent reporting' in the process, beyond simply moving assets, has emerged as a key issue. Typically, in the United States, Foreign Financial Account Reporting (FBAR) is applied. Reporting obligations arise when the total balance of overseas financial accounts exceeds $10,000, and failure to comply can result in significant sanctions. In Korea, there is also a trend to expand management targets beyond simple accounts to include trust structures, such as the introduction of the obligation to report overseas trust assets. Ultimately, the core of the response strategy is to operate an integrated risk management system based on 'cross-border capabilities' that penetrate domestically and internationally. This is because asset transfer does not end with domestic disposal, but is followed like a shadow by subsequent procedures such as tax reporting in the United States (FATCA) and explanation of foreign exchange transactions. In an environment where one asset is judged simultaneously in the legal systems of two countries, domestic practice and overseas local response must be organically connected without being segmented. Therefore, the professional capabilities of a law firm that can comprehensively carry out everything from administrative representation in Korea to local legal response in the United States within one fence is now a necessity, not an option. In an asset management environment where borders between borders have disappeared, preemptive response through this cross-border infrastructure is the only way to fully preserve asset value.

What is the conflict between Korea and the US standards and what is the response strategy? (Shortcut) 2026-05-13T21:43:25.348Z https://www.daeryunlaw.com/en/broadcast/6288 When it comes to corporate management, news of a business partner's rehabilitation or bankruptcy filing is not just bad news, it is a fatal risk that can lead to a series of bankruptcies for the company. As a lawyer, I am currently helping numerous companies respond to bankruptcy crises, but I often remember the unfortunate case of a small business going bankrupt with surplus money that I encountered 10 years ago when I was working as a corporate bankruptcy trustee in Uijeongbu. The company did not report its claims on time even after recognizing that the client had entered corporate rehabilitation procedures, and eventually had to face the disastrous result of being kicked out of the market without recovering a single penny. This is a point of deep regret that the worst phase of serial bankruptcies could have been avoided if the bond report had been completed within the golden time and some of the funds had been recovered within the rehabilitation process. The first thing that creditors must keep an eye on in order to protect their rights in the corporate rehabilitation process is the short 'claim report period' of about two weeks to one month designated by the court along with the decision to commence. If the court approves the rehabilitation plan without reporting proper claims within this period, the claims will permanently lose effect in accordance with Article 251 of the Debtor Rehabilitation Act. Of course, there is an exception (Article 151 of the same Act) where the claims are considered to have been reported on time if they are reflected in the list of creditors submitted by the court-appointed administrator. However, in practice, only part of the amount of the claim is often recorded or omitted altogether, and unless the creditor directly comes forward and reports the difference, there is a fatal limitation that the right will inevitably be dissolved. Even if a claim is reported in a timely manner, it can be reflected in the rehabilitation plan only after passing a rigorous claim provision/denial process, so strict compliance with the deadline is a prerequisite for all responses. Of course, in order to provide relief to creditors who missed the reporting period, a supplementary reporting system has been established in the future under Article 152 of the Debtors' Rehabilitation Act, etc., but recovering rights through this is by no means easy. In principle, even such future supplementary reporting is restricted after the 'assembly of interested parties for the hearing of the rehabilitation plan' is over. However, through Supreme Court precedents (2011G256, etc.), the legal principle that "if the administrator knew or could have easily known the existence of the rehabilitation claim but did not enter it in the list of rehabilitation creditors, the administrator will not be forfeited as an exception and a supplementary report can be filed later within one month from the date of learning of the rehabilitation procedure" has been established, which has expanded the scope of relief. There is also a precedent (2006Da77197) that states that relief can be obtained through a performance action even after the rehabilitation procedure is completed. However, the essential risk that companies must face here is that the burden of proof to prove the manager's 'intention or gross negligence (knowledge or could easily have known)' lies entirely with the creditors. In practice, it is an area of ​​judicial uncertainty that is extremely difficult for creditors who have difficulty accessing internal information to explain each and every one of them with objective legal evidence. Ultimately, in the face of a business partner's bankruptcy risk, 'vague wait-and-see' or 'arbitrary judgments based on Internet information' are prohibited, and preemptive and thorough legal response within Golden Time is the only solution. In particular, in order to overcome the latest practical trends of the competent court and the threshold of strict bond investigation procedures, it is necessary to avoid an after-the-fact response and design a systematic defense logic from the beginning of the case. In the face of a major crisis where the survival of the company is at stake, the most reliable response will be to appoint a rehabilitation lawyer who is familiar with the relevant local practice more than anything else.

A webinar will be held to diagnose changes in the global trade environment and strengthen the practical response of foreign companies. Daeryun Law Firm It was announced on the 4th that in collaboration with the Korea Foreign Companies Association (KOFA), a webinar on 'U.S. tariff refund and trade risk response for companies' will be held at 3 p.m. on the 7th. The event was planned to go beyond simple refund application process guidance and support the establishment of preemptive governance in preparation for complex legal and contractual issues that may appear after refund and strong trade pressure from the United States. At the event, Daeryun experts with outstanding expertise in customs and global corporate legal affairs will directly participate as speakers. In the first part of the event, which is divided into two sessions, Myung Jae-ho, customs expert, will give a lecture on the topic of ‘U.S. IEEPA tariff refund system and latest practical trends.’ Commissioner Myeong is a veteran who has overseen trade review and FTA (Free Trade Agreement) consulting work at major organizations and companies such as Hyundai Express and Korea Origin Information Service. Based on his solid network with related organizations such as the Korea Customs Service, he plans to present various administrative difficulties that companies may experience during the refund process and customs review response strategies. In Part 2, U.S. attorney Dong-Hoo Son will present on the topic of ‘Issues after refund: Official importer structure, refund attribution, and subsequent trade risks.’ Attorney Son is considered an investment and corporate legal expert who has successfully completed numerous cross-border projects, including advising global pharmaceutical companies on their entry into the U.S. market. In this lecture, he will explain that the opening of CBP's online portal is a practical follow-up to the unconstitutional decision made by the U.S. Federal Court in February, and is expected to analyze and present specific scenarios that foreign companies will face. It mainly addresses sensitive issues such as △the scope of phased application of the CBP CAPE refund system, △response to disputes surrounding the settlement of refunds between headquarters and corporations, and △follow-up response plans for cases excluding CAPE application. This event can be attended by any working-level managers in related departments such as HR (human resources), legal affairs, finance, purchasing, SCM (supply chain management), and logistics, as well as executives of foreign companies. Applications for attendance and confirmation of detailed information can be made through the Daeryun Law Firm website. Kim Kuk-il, CEO of Daeryun Law Firm, emphasized, “With the launch of CBP’s portal, a path has been opened for importers who paid the so-called Trump tariffs to receive a substantial refund. However, the essence that companies should pay attention to is not simply whether or not they will receive a refund, but to clearly establish who the refund legally belongs to and ensure logical consistency of trade risks that will develop in the future.” Kim Jin-ryong Reporter (kim.jinryong@mk.co.kr)[View full article] Daeryun holds seminar on US tariff refund and trade risk response (Go here) 2026-05-13T21:42:54.668Z https://www.daeryunlaw.com/en/broadcast/6285 Customized legal education and counseling for disabled business representatives and prospective entrepreneurs.

Participants were offered practical solutions to specific issues encountered in actual business settings, such as reorganizing personnel and labor systems and reviewing contracts. In the satisfaction survey conducted after the event, there were many positive evaluations, such as “There were many practical tips that can be immediately applied in the field,” and “I hope that related programs will continue to expand.” Park Maru, chairman of the Comprehensive Support Center for Businesses for the Disabled, said, “Even though businesses with disabilities have high growth potential, they often face difficulties due to lack of access to legal information.” He added, “We hope that this cooperation will be a strong starting point to reduce uncertainty in business operation and help stable growth.” Kim Kuk-il, CEO of Daeryun Law Firm, said, “We planned this event with the intention of realizing the precious relationships between people for the public good within the bounds of the law,” and added, “We will expand legal support and social contribution activities so that companies with disabilities can enjoy their legal rights without discrimination.” Meanwhile, Relationship Law, a public interest corporation established to protect the socially underprivileged and the underprivileged, is continuously carrying out various social contribution projects.

In particular, as the U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Service (USCIS) flexibly applies the application criteria chart, a meaningful time has arrived to expedite the green card process for professional talents such as researchers, engineers, doctors, professors, and entrepreneurs who have been considering EB-2 NIW. However, these policy opportunities do not completely guarantee the acquisition of permanent residency. In particular, when preparing to immigrate with children, the 'cross-border strategy', which involves preparing documents in Korea and coordinating local administrative procedures in the United States in real time, becomes a key variable in determining whether the accompanying children can obtain permanent residency. "As the selection method for professional employment visas (H-1B) has recently been reorganized to focus on wage level, the era of relying on 'luck' to obtain residency status as in the past is over," said U.S. attorney Daeryun of Mia Kim (Limited). "Rather than relying on the uncertain visa lottery," he said. He emphasized, “It is important to take strategic action to secure permanent residency stably and fix the age of children by taking advantage of the current opportunity.” Below is a Q&A. - The criteria for selecting the most appropriate green card category for your situation are: ▶ If you have unique achievements, you should consider EB-1A first, and if you can prove your contribution to national interest as a highly educated person, you should consider EB-2 NIW first. On the other hand, capital-based investment immigration to the United States (EB-5) has recently emerged as a realistic alternative among parents who want to secure the stability of their children studying abroad. The current investment amount is in the range of 800,000 to 1.05 million dollars depending on the region, but there is a strong possibility of an increase in conjunction with the system's re-approval on September 30, so there is a need to hurry up the schedule. -Why 'timing' and 'child's age' management are key in the permanent residency procedure. ▶Now that the door is open, you can secure a work permit early by simultaneously filing an adjustment of status (I-485) even before the petition is approved. It's the best time. The most important thing at this time is 'age lock' according to the Child Status Protection Act (CSPA). The child's age is protected by deduction for the duration of the petition review period, but the child's age is ultimately fixed to under 21 only if the application or fee payment is completed within one year from the time the door is opened. If this timing is missed, there is a risk that only children will be excluded from obtaining permanent residency, so real-time response from both Korea and the United States is essential. - The impact of recent H-1B uncertainty on permanent residency strategy. ▶ As the H-1B visa was reorganized to focus on wage level and employment costs for local companies rose, uncertainty about foreign workers increased. Therefore, rather than relying on this, you should design a roadmap to move directly to permanent residency by utilizing the OPT period provided after obtaining your degree. If you are already residing in the United States, it is a practical rule to secure the stability of your stay until obtaining permanent residency by actively utilizing the state-level talent support program or the H-1B quota exception clause. -The most important factor for applicants to prepare in practice is: ▶ Beyond simply meeting the qualification requirements, it is most important to build an elaborate 'activity plan' that can persuade the examiner. Recently, U.S. authorities have strengthened background checks and rigorously evaluated the actual contribution that applicants' capabilities will make in the United States. In addition to 'cross-border insight' that reinterprets achievements in Korea in the language of the US market, selecting an expert with bilingual and bicultural capabilities who can simultaneously coordinate Korea's unique corporate culture and the US legal system increases the probability of success. - Suggestions to minimize the risk of rejection and increase the success rate of the process are: ▶ 'Pre-screening response' and 'three-dimensional strategic design' through experts. Permanent residency in the United States is a complex legal area that combines stay methods and asset management, so a mid- to long-term perspective of at least two years is required. We need to reduce our dependence on non-immigrant visas and build a roadmap linking higher education, employment, and residence based on permanent residency. The best option is to reduce administrative delays and design a stable route through a cross-border strategy from the early stage.[View full article] U.S. permanent residency strategy and timing, cross-border response determines success or failure (Shortcut) 2026-05-13T12:11:29.934Z https://www.daeryunlaw.com/en/broadcast/6281 An employee who was accused of bidding corruption and breach of trust by the company he worked for was cleared of the charges. According to the legal community on the 30th, the Uijeongbu District Prosecutors' Office ordered a non-indictment against Mr. A, a former energy company employee who was sent on charges of breach of trust and breach of trust on the 27th of last month. Mr. A, who worked at a global energy company, allocated excessive quantities to logistics company B, which offered a higher price quote than others, for one year starting in October 2023. He was accused of causing damage. He was also accused of making the CEO pay millions of won worth of travel expenses along with an implicit request while traveling with the CEO of Company B. However, Mr. A denied all charges. Because the company's mistake caused a large amount of damage to company B, the company allocated the quantity to company B to prevent the company from having to pay compensation. In addition, he claimed that he did not arbitrarily select a company and allocate the quantity because the quantity allocation was approved after reviewing the internal factory manager and the head office. Regarding the payment of travel expenses, he explained, “I prepared the travel expenses myself, and I also returned all expenses partially supported by the CEO of Company B with a check.” The prosecution determined that Mr. A could not be seen as having committed a crime alone or taking unfair financial advantage. Considering the fact that, due to the company's system, Mr. A cannot freely select a logistics company and allocate quantities, and that the company claimed that damage was caused by Mr. A but was unable to estimate the amount, it was determined that there was no evidence to establish a charge of breach of trust. Regarding the payment of travel expenses, the ratio of the volume allocated to Company B around the time of Mr. A's trip was maintained at a similar level as before, so it was judged that he did not receive an unfair request and give preferential treatment. Attorney Kim Myeong-cheol of Daeryun Law Firm, who defended Mr. A, said, “We revealed that the lowest price quote cannot be an unconditional criterion for selecting a logistics company, and by closely analyzing the internal approval system of a large company to prove that Mr. A's actions were a reasonable decision, we were able to be acquitted.” “There was,” he said.[View full article] I made an internal payment, but I was sued...

The status of personal information processors in the insurance industry has been put on the chopping block as the Supreme Court ruled that an exclusive insurance agent belonging to a primary insurance company who was indicted for using core customer personal information to change insurance details is not a 'personal information processor'. As corporate insurance agencies (GAs) are pursuing the introduction of specialized insurance sales companies, the analysis is that the identity of the personal information processor varies depending on whether they are independent or entrusted. According to the financial and legal circles on the 30th, the Supreme Court recently overturned the original decision that convicted Mr. A, an exclusive planner who stole customer personal information and modified insurance contracts, as a personal information processor, and remanded the case back to the Seoul Central District Court. Previously, the first and second trials viewed designer A as a 'personal information processor' and sentenced him to 10 months in prison and two years of probation. The Supreme Court's reason for overturning the original judgment was that it was necessary to determine whether a person is a personal information processor based on who has the authority to ultimately determine the purpose and means of processing personal information. The key point of the ruling is that the status of personal information processor must have ‘decision authority’ regarding the processing of personal information. This ruling is also having an impact on the GA industry, which is pushing for the introduction of insurance sales companies, advocating for the so-called ‘separation of manufacturing and sales’ that separates product manufacturing and sales. Kim Yong-tae, president of the Korea GA Association, said that insurance companies will focus on product development and asset management, and that sales and follow-up management will be handled by a separate specialized company. Experts analyzed that although it will vary depending on the method of introduction, if an insurance sales company establishes its own database to manage customer information and determine a sales strategy, there is a possibility that it will have the status of a personal information processor. Jeong Jin-yeol, a lawyer at LK Bipyeongsan Law Firm, said, “If product planning and sales are completely separated, the status of the personal information processor is likely to become an insurance sales company.” Currently, GA focuses on agency and brokerage work, but the interpretation is that professional companies have independent responsibility and authority for sales. Shin Hye-jin, lawyer at Daeryun Law Firm, explained, "If an insurance sales company is entrusted with work from an insurance company and processes customer information, the insurance company maintains its status as a personal information processor as a consignor. On the other hand, if it independently collects and manages customer information and conducts business activities based on this, there is a possibility of forming a joint personal information processor relationship with the insurance company." An official from the GA Association said, "How and how personal information will be handled when introducing an insurance sales company is something that will be discussed by the authorities or in the process of introducing laws, so it is not possible to judge at this time." However, he added, "If a sales company becomes a company, it will be at the level of a quasi-financial company, so a more strengthened personal information maintenance system will be needed than the GA type, which is an agency." However, analysis followed that this ruling does not completely eliminate the designer's responsibility. The Supreme Court ruled that even if the defendant is not a personal information processor, he or she may be subject to the penalty provisions under Article 74 of the Personal Information Protection Act. Article 74 stipulates that if an agent or employee of a corporation commits a violation in relation to work, a fine shall be imposed not only on the offender but also on the corporation. The burden on insurance companies has grown further. Attorney Shin said, "Just because a planner is not a personal information processor does not mean that the agent is completely exempt from punishment. From the insurance company's perspective, this ruling clearly assigned the status and responsibility as a personal information processor, so responsibility for overall management of customer personal information collected and processed through insurance planners has been strengthened." He then emphasized, “Insurance companies, GAs, and planners all need to clearly understand the meaning of the ruling and reexamine their personal information management systems appropriate to their respective legal status.”[View full article] Controversy over the status of insurance planners as ‘personal information processors’… “It depends on the seller” (Shortcut) 2026-05-13T13:11:06.394Z https://www.daeryunlaw.com/en/broadcast/6279 A soldier in his 20s, who was accused of being an accomplice to a telephone financial fraud (voice phishing) organization, was cleared of charges by the prosecution after handing over his account number and other information to a person impersonating a counselor while trying to obtain a loan. According to the legal community on the 29th, the Daejeon District Prosecutors' Office Seosan Branch cleared Mr. A, a man in his 20s, who was sent on charges of violating the Electronic Financial Transactions Act and aiding and abetting fraud on the 19th of last month. Mr. A was accused of being involved in money laundering by a telephone financial fraud organization. He was accused of providing his bank account information and ID to use as a conduit. He was also accused of finding the amount of fraud that came into his account and delivering it to a telephone financial fraud organization. However, Mr. A denied the charges. In March of last year, while talking to a counselor who he found out through an online loan advertisement, he was deceived by saying, "You can only get a loan if you create transaction details," and became involved in a crime after providing his account number, password, and identification card. Mr. A also received an offer from another person impersonating a counselor while looking for an additional loan, saying, "Your account is being used for fraud. If you find the money deposited in the account and deliver it to us, we will report it to the Financial Supervisory Service and provide relief," and after complying, he was also charged with aiding and abetting fraud. Mr. A claimed, "I never expected that my account would be used for fraud. At the time, I was in a situation where it was difficult to make a sound decision because I was in huge debt after being defrauded of investing hundreds of millions of won." At the same time, he explained, “I asked the so-called counselors several times about the progress of the loan, and if I had had the perception that it was a crime, I would not have done this.” The prosecution determined that neither of Mr. A’s charges were valid. According to the Supreme Court precedent, renting 'access media' such as electronic information contained in the magnetic strip of a deposit account or electronic card can be considered a violation of the Electronic Financial Transactions Act, but the information provided by Mr. A does not fall under this. Regarding the charge of aiding and abetting fraud, considering that Mr. A did not suspect that the loan process was abnormal or could be involved in a crime while talking to people impersonating a counselor, it was deemed that there was no intention to facilitate the crime of telephone financial fraud. Attorney Kim Hyun-soo of Daeryun Law Firm, who represented him, said, "In order to constitute a crime of aiding and abetting, there must be awareness and intent to facilitate the crime of the principal offender, but Mr. A was only a victim of a serial fraud who was deceived while trying to get a loan. We were able to get an acquittal by explaining that the loan was urgent due to the desperate economic situation he was in at the time and there was no perception that it was a crime."[View full article] The information you provided to get a loan ended up in the hands of a fraudulent organization...

The effectiveness of the agreement and the normalization of logistics are now key. We look at the meaning of government intervention, the logistics recovery situation, and the impact it will have on other labor disputes. With the logistics dispute between BGF Logistics and Korea Freight Forwarders temporarily resolved, attention is focused on the impact it will have on the logistics industry as a whole. In an industry where multi-level consignment structures are common, as cases of high-ranking logistics corporations engaging in direct negotiations are emerging, demands for primary negotiation from labor unions of other logistics companies ahead of wage and collective agreements (wage agreements) in the second half of the year are expected to spread. According to the logistics industry on the 29th, the CU branch of the Confederation of Democratic Trade Unions (KCTU), the Public Transport Workers' Union Freight Solidarity Headquarters (Cargo Solidarity), the convenience store branch, and BGF Logis held a meeting at the Jinju branch of the Ministry of Employment and Labor at 5 a.m. on this day. A tentative agreement was reached on a collective agreement. BGF Logis is a logistics subsidiary of BGF Retail, which operates convenience store CU. The day before, Minister of Employment and Labor Kim Young-hoon and Rep. Kim Joo-young, secretary of the ruling party in the National Assembly's Climate, Energy, Environment and Labor Committee, visited the site and mediated negotiations. The agreement includes a 7% increase in transportation fees, guaranteed paid vacation four times a year, immunity from civil and criminal charges and cancellation of provisional injunctions for cargo unions, and compensation for the families of deceased union members. Both sides initially decided to hold a signing ceremony at 11 a.m. on this day, but the schedule for the signing ceremony has not been finalized as detailed coordination has not been completed. What the industry is paying attention to is the structure of negotiations. In the early stages of this dispute, the Korean Freight Solidarity pointed out BGF Retail, the main body of CU's franchise business, as a negotiating party, but as the strike continued to prolong, it took a step back by accepting BGF Logis, which is in charge of logistics, as a negotiating party. As a result, this agreement was reached not with BGF Retail, the primary distribution contractor, but with BGF Logis, a top logistics corporation, taking the lead. CU Logistics is usually operated in a multi-level structure consisting of BGF Logis, a logistics center, a local transport company, and individual delivery drivers. In this structure, the direct user and the higher-level corporation with actual operational influence are separated under the contract, so there are conflicting interpretations as to how far the negotiating partner will be viewed in the event of a dispute. Initially, the government also took the position that this issue should be viewed carefully in relation to the usability issue, but the atmosphere changed as confusion on the ground increased due to the prolonged strike. On the 20th, at the protest site in front of the Jinju Logistics Center in Gyeongnam Province, a truck (replacement truck) hit union members, killing one person and injuring two others. In addition to the long-term strike, on-site fatal accidents and damage to stores coincided with the Minister of Employment and Labor and the ruling party members visiting the negotiation site to mediate, and it is interpreted that BGF Logis directly participated in the negotiations in this process. The bases of less than 10% of union members were blocked... The controversy over recognition of representativeness and the fact that key supply chain bases have been shut down only with low organizational ratios are also attracting attention from industry and labor circles. Of the 5,500 CU delivery drivers, it is estimated that 7 to 8%, or 380 to 440, belong to the cargo union. Although its proportion compared to the total article is not large, it is analyzed that negotiation power has increased with the blockade of the Jincheon Logistics Center, which serves as a national hub. Controversy over representativeness also remains. Criticism is being raised about whether it is appropriate for the union to act as the de facto representative bargaining agent in a situation where less than 10% of all delivery drivers belong to the Korea Freight Workers' Union. Issues are also raised regarding whether there was sufficient consultation regarding representation with non-union members and other stakeholders during the negotiation process. The business structure unique to the convenience store industry is also considered a factor in increasing pressure for an early settlement. Convenience store logistics has a high proportion of fresh food, event products, and daily delivery products, so even short-term delivery disruptions can lead to a decrease in sales. Some in the industry estimate that BGF Retail's damage due to this incident is in the range of 5 to 6 billion won. As the situation has entered a controlled phase, the company is faced with the follow-up task of recovering damage to franchisees and preparing support measures. BGF Retail made an official statement on this day and emphasized, "We will closely examine the damage situation and prepare support measures for franchisees as soon as possible." This settlement is expected to have a significant impact on labor-management relations in the logistics industry in the future. As there remains a precedent of higher-level corporations engaging in direct negotiations due to the burden of prolonging disputes, there are observations that demands for similar methods of negotiation are likely to spread during the wage and collective bargaining phase in the second half of the year. There is a possibility that it will be mentioned as a reference case during the discussion on the revision of Articles 2 and 3 of the Trade Union Act, which is pending in the National Assembly. However, some in the legal community and industry are cautiously arguing that this case should not be broadly interpreted as an issue of recognition of the usability of primary contractors in the logistics industry as a whole. Bang In-tae, lawyer at Daeryun Law Firm, said, “In this case, BGF Logis, not BGF Retail, entered into negotiations as a user,” and added, “We need to be cautious in viewing this as an example of acknowledging the use of a primary contract across the logistics industry.” Reporter Hwang Jeong-won (garden@sidae.com)[View full article] BGF-Cargo Solidarity Agreement, Will It Be a Signal for ‘Direct Negotiations’?

Other labor-management relations equity issues [Editor's Note] An agreement between labor and management over CU Logistics was reached and the conflict was resolved. The effectiveness of the agreement and the normalization of logistics are now key. We look at the meaning of government intervention, the logistics recovery situation, and the impact it will have on other labor disputes. The logistics dispute between the CU branch of the convenience store branch of the Korea Confederation of Trade Unions (KCTU), the Public Transport Workers' Union, and the Freight Solidarity Headquarters (Cargo Solidarity) was resolved after 24 days of strike. As the ministers of the relevant ministries and ruling party members personally visit the negotiation sites and begin mediation, discussions surrounding the extent to which the government will be involved in future labor-management disputes at industrial sites are expected to intensify. According to the Ministry of Employment and Labor and the logistics industry on the 29th, the CU branch of the Korea Freight Solidarity Convenience Store Branch and BGF Logis tentatively agreed to a collective agreement through the fifth round of negotiations at 5 a.m. on the same day. The agreement included a 7% increase in transportation fees, guaranteed paid vacation once a quarter four times a year, immunity from civil and criminal charges for the cargo union, and cancellation of the injunction prohibiting business interruption. BGF Logis and Korea Freight Alliance decided to hold a signing ceremony at 11 a.m. on this day and sign the agreement, but time was delayed in the process of coordinating detailed items, and the final agreement was postponed. The two sides negotiated all night long at the Jinju Employment and Labor Office in Gyeongnam, starting at 8 p.m. the previous evening. Minister of Employment and Labor Kim Young-hoon and Democratic Party of Korea lawmaker Kim Ju-young also attended the scene and supported mediation. With the conclusion of the agreement, the blockade of major logistics bases such as Jinju and Jincheon will be lifted, and BGF Retail plans to begin 100% normalization of logistics during the week. The labor community is evaluating this settlement positively in that the protracted dispute has entered a phase of settlement. In a situation where, in addition to the prolonged strike, a fatal accident occurred on site, the government's role in mediation seems to be meaningful. The management community is reacting cautiously regarding the scope of the government's involvement in the field. There is a view that the presence of a minister and a sitting member of the National Assembly at the negotiation site in a situation where the main contractor's obligation to negotiate is not clearly defined may have placed a significant burden on the management. The management community is cautious about the level of intervention... The special nature of the case is considered to be the reason behind the government's mediation of the Yellow Envelope Act. On the 20th, a truck hit union members at a rally in front of the convenience store CU Jinju Logistics Center, killing one person and injuring two others. Afterwards, the blockade continued to the Jincheon Logistics Center, which serves as a national hub, and some franchisees responded that sales had fallen by 30%. There is a possibility that the government has begun making on-site adjustments in consideration of the social costs of a prolonged situation. There are also critical views surrounding the consistency of the government's response. The Ministry of Employment and Labor initially stated that this issue was not related to the Yellow Envelope Act, but after the fatal accident, the level of response changed, with the minister directly mediating at the negotiation site. It is also of interest whether this mediation is in line with the government's labor policy, which advocates improving the dual structure of the labor market. If a similar dispute occurs in the future, it is expected that the key issue will be the standards and fairness under which the government will decide whether to intervene. As multi-level consignment structures are common due to the nature of the logistics industry, it is highly likely that discussions will continue surrounding the scope of negotiation responsibilities of higher-level corporations and the mediation role of the government. This case is expected to have a significant impact on wages and collective agreements (wage agreements) in the logistics and distribution industry in the second half of the year. As a precedent is established for top logistics corporations to engage in direct negotiations, there are observations that unions in other industries may make similar demands. There remains controversy over the representativeness of the union, which accounts for less than 10% of the total number of delivery drivers, as the de facto representative negotiating body. Ultimately, this settlement is evaluated as an example that goes beyond a single logistics dispute and exposes the scope of the government's intervention in labor disputes, the negotiation responsibility of upper-level operators, and the negotiating power and representativeness of minority unions. However, some are cautious, saying that it is difficult to view this agreement as a precedent in which the user rights of primary contractors are immediately recognized. Bang In-tae, a lawyer at Daeryun Law Firm, said, "In this case, BGF Logis, not BGF Retail, entered into negotiations," and added, "It is difficult to view this as a case where the use of outsourced contracts across the logistics industry was immediately recognized." He added, "If the number of cases in which the relationship between top logistics companies that set actual logistics operation standards and site borrowers becomes an issue increases, in the future, there is a possibility that it will lead to discussions on the negotiation structure at the industry level beyond individual corporate units."

Criminal punishment is possible only based on laws enacted by the National Assembly in accordance with the principle of legality of crime, and Article 12 of the Constitution and Article 1 of the Criminal Act prohibit punishment that is not in accordance with the law and due process. Therefore, simply receiving a charge and establishing a crime under the law should be approached as separate issues. The standard for determining whether a specific act constitutes a crime is 'correspondence to the elements.' This is the process of verifying whether all of the behavioral requirements stipulated by law are met. For example, in the case of the crime of forcible indecent assault under Article 298 of the Criminal Act, all three requirements - assault or intimidation, an act directed at a person, and indecent assault - must be proven to be established. If even one of these elements is missing, the person cannot be punished as a forcible molestation under the law. Analysis of the elements is also essential in recent cases of obscene acts using communication media (prostitution), which frequently occur. According to Article 13 of the Special Act on the Punishment of Sexual Violence, the purpose of satisfying sexual desire and the ‘reach’ of media that causes sexual shame are conditions for establishment. Even if a sexual message is written, if it is not actually transmitted and reached the other person, a crime will not be established due to the failure to meet the structural requirements. In many cases, acquittal in sexual crime cases is due not only to the absence of the act but also to the lack of legal structural requirements. Rather than being intimidated by the facts of the charges, suspects should closely analyze whether the charges presented by the prosecution fully meet the legal requirements. The process of verifying each legal requirement is the most basic and core step in establishing a sexual crime defense strategy. Therefore, from the beginning of the investigation, it is necessary to professionally review with a defense attorney whether your actions meet the criminal requirements specified in the law. We must recognize that meeting legal requirements is a critical criterion that determines the establishment of a crime, and block the possibility of unnecessary criminal punishment through logical and thorough legal responses from the early stage.

Retaliation agency services, which take revenge on others in exchange for money, have become an underground industry and are threatening the social safety net. If retaliatory crimes in the past were accidental acts caused by emotional conflicts between the parties, recently, a warning light has been turned on as they have evolved into an organized business form with division of request and execution. According to the legal community on the 28th, retaliatory agency services that perform location tracking, distribution of personal information, and throwing of residential dirt through anonymous channels such as Telegram and open chat are spreading. The methods are becoming more elaborate, such as disguised employment at a delivery platform outsourcing company and stealing the victim's residence information, and are taking the form of a branch organization in which people who have no contact with the victim are involved in crimes through money. Recently, retaliation agencies have begun to be linked to large criminal organizations. There have also been cases where voice phishing organizations request retaliation agencies to prevent victims from reporting to the police or to pressure them into withdrawing reports. Private retaliation is being used as a tool to protect the profits of a criminal organization. Attorney Kim Yun-joong of the Daeryun Law Firm said, "Retaliation is a serious crime that combines violation of the Personal Information Protection Act and criminal instigation." Even clients who did not commit the crime themselves are classified as instigators under criminal law and receive the same punishment as those who committed the crime. If you are involved in a voice phishing organization, you will be charged with the crime of organizing and operating a criminal group, and if the purpose of hindering reporting is proven, it will be treated as a retaliation crime and severely punished under the Act on the Aggravated Punishment of Specific Crimes (Special Act). Crime experts analyze that due to the nature of anonymous platforms, tracking is difficult and the structure of one-time replacement of executors and maintaining the organization is increasing crime. Attorney Kim emphasized, “In line with the speed at which the crime structure is becoming more sophisticated, it is urgent for investigative agencies to establish an organizational-level investigation and legal response system,” and added, “Victims should actively utilize the public security system, including requests for personal protection, from the beginning.” Reporter Hwang Jeong-won (garden@sidae.com)[View full article] If you give money, they rob you and throw dirt on you... Retaliation agency, industrialized by combining with voice phishing (Click here) 2026-05-14T05:14:35.796Z https://www.daeryunlaw.com/en/broadcast/6274 The U.S. Customs and Border Protection (CBP)'s International Emergency Economic Powers Act (IEEPA) tariff refund measure has entered the full implementation phase. CBP has established a consolidated refund processing function (Consolidated Administration and Processing of Entries (CAPE)) within the Export and Import Clearance System (ACE) to request a first-stage refund, and refunds will be paid by Automated Account Transfer (ACH). Although many people are relieved that this is an opportunity to get back the tariffs paid in the past, the atmosphere in the field is complex, with expectations and concerns intersecting. This is because there are a lot of tasks that companies must solve, from applying for tariff refunds through the new refund system to responding to the disruptive trade pressure from the United States that will develop after the refund. The first practical issue that must be faced is that this refund is possible only through the company's active application, not through voluntary action by the administrative agency. In particular, CBP strictly limits refund application eligibility to the import declarant (IOR) and the customs broker (broker) designated by the import declarant. Even if the Korean headquarters paid actual tariffs during commercial transactions, you cannot apply for a refund if you are not a document importer. This is because CBP's refund application criteria gives priority to the status of the importer declared on the import declaration rather than the cost-sharing relationship in commercial transactions. Therefore, if differences of opinion that may arise between the head office and local corporations or distributors regarding the subject of ownership after the refund is paid are not settled in a detailed contract in advance, there is a high possibility that the customs duties paid by the Korean company will not be refunded. The criteria for selecting the refund target also require a sophisticated approach. Currently, the first stage of refund is limited to import declaration cases that are unsettled or less than 80 days after settlement. Cases that have passed 80 days after settlement, post-settlement reports (PSC), objection cases (Protest), AD/CVD imposition cases, etc. will be reviewed separately at a later stage. If a company hastily relies on the first stage of application without carefully classifying the status of its import case, it may face the risk of losing its rights due to administrative omissions. In the end, the future task is to manage non-traditional cases that the system does not accept and to prepare for judicial response if CBP refuses refund. A more fundamental threat is the United States' macro trade strategy that lurks beyond the immediate reward of refund. Currently, the US administration is imposing a 10% global tariff based on Article 122 of the Trade Act, and is also conducting an investigation under Article 301 of the Trade Act with unprecedented intensity. The Office of the U.S. Trade Representative (USTR) began a detailed investigation of 16 countries in March last year under the pretext of structural overproduction, and is also putting pressure on 60 countries in relation to forced labor. This policy stance is formally a way to deal with trade issues between countries, but in the actual execution process, it is developed to target the production of individual companies and the overall supply chain. In particular, the U.S. Trade Representative's investigation and follow-up measures target specific countries, but accumulate evidence through cases for each industry and product, and connect this to tariffs and regulations to directly affect the business environment of companies. Accordingly, rather than dismissing this as a simple conflict between countries, companies are required to respond by examining their entire supply chain and transaction structure. Ultimately, the response to this IEEPA phase must go beyond the level of simply acting as a refund application agent. The key is strategic compliance, which involves legally re-examining the commercial settlement structure between the Korean headquarters and the U.S. subsidiary and comprehensively designing how past customs practice data is connected to future trade dispute scenarios. From investigations into structural overproduction to regulations on forced labor, it is time for companies to examine their structural response system, which also foresees chain regulations after refunds amidst the wave of increasingly sophisticated protectionism in the United States.

Daeryun Law Firm announced that it has signed a business agreement with iSecure, a digital forensics and information protection company. The agreement ceremony was held at the Daeryun main office in Yeouido, Seoul. Attending the site were officials from both companies, including Daeryun CEO Kim Kuk-il, lawyer Lee Seo-hyung, and iSecure CEO Yoo Won-jun. iSecure is an information security company established in 2005 and operates in the fields of ISMS consulting, vulnerability diagnosis, penetration testing, and security solutions.

According to the legal community on the 27th, the Incheon District Prosecutors' Office cleared Ms. A, a woman in her 40s who was sent last month on charges of theft and obstruction of business. During the process of leaving the company in 2024, Ms. A copied Hwasa product design files and work reports to a personal external hard drive and failed to hand over work data and company SNS account passwords to her successor. He was accused of interfering with work by using force. However, Mr. A denied all charges. Mr. A refuted that he had transferred all data to the company's PC at the company's request before leaving the company and that the SNS password was also shared with internal employees. Mr. A then claimed, "I reported the company because of continuous non-payment of wages, but I received a complaint 10 months after leaving the company. It was a malicious complaint." The prosecution accepted Mr. A's claim. The prosecution determined that the information stored in the computer cannot be considered property under criminal law because it is not a tangible object, and that even if Mr. A took it, the crime of theft cannot be established because it does not reduce the information itself or reduce the possibility of possession and use of the company. Regarding the charge of obstruction of business, considering that Mr. A moved the data to his successor's PC and that the company requested a handover 10 months after the suspect left the company, the credibility of Mr. A's claim is high. The decision was made. Kim Ji-hyeon, an attorney at Daeryun Law Firm who represented Mr. A, said, “We were able to obtain a good result by actively demonstrating the legal principle that digital data cannot be subject to theft because the original remains intact even if copied, so there is no infringement of possession.” Reporter Jeong Cheol-wook[View full article] “Give me your password” 10 months after leaving the company...

Chronic disease patients, returning patient, Patients with difficulty moving, Office workers already consider the possibility of treatment and prescriptions without visiting the hospital as an important selection criterion.. In a situation where competing medical institutions within the same treatment area have a non-face-to-face visit management system, if they do not operate it, patient withdrawal is inevitable.. Management of chronic diseases, especially high blood pressure and diabetes, Description of test results, Non-face-to-face treatment serves as an effective means of simultaneously increasing treatment efficiency and patient retention rate in post-surgical progress checks.. Non-face-to-face treatment, not fully permitted 'conditional institutionalization'…Risk of expansion into criminal and administrative issues 2025year 12Non-face-to-face medical treatment was incorporated into a permanent system through the revision of the Medical Service Act in February, but at the same time, strong restrictions and conditions were set.. The current system is still based on face-to-face treatment and focuses on the clinic level., Focus on returning patients, The basic structure of prohibiting institutions dedicated to non-face-to-face treatment is maintained.. In particular, it is allowed for patients who received face-to-face treatment for the same symptoms at the same medical institution within a certain period of time., In other cases, the region and scope of prescription may be limited.. Hospital-level and higher medical institutions are also not able to freely provide non-face-to-face treatment to all patients., It is allowed only in cases where there are certain exceptions, such as patients with rare diseases or patients undergoing follow-up after surgery.. In addition, non-face-to-face prescriptions are restricted for drugs with a risk of abuse, such as narcotics, and if patient information is insufficient, the number of days prescribed or the type of drug may be further restricted.. Ultimately, it is reasonable to understand this revision as legislation that both allows and strengthens control.. Non-face-to-face medical treatment takes place in an environment where examination and palpation are impossible and one must rely on the patient's statement.. Nevertheless, the law does not lower the medical staff's duty of care. In other words, a structure is formed that assumes the same level of responsibility as face-to-face treatment while making decisions based on limited information.. Therefore, future disputes will involve not only the simple results of medical treatment, but also 'Why did you choose non-face-to-face treatment in this situation?'acts as a key issue. For example, chest pain, Difficulty breathing, acute pain, Failure to switch to face-to-face treatment despite symptoms of neurological abnormalities, The judgment itself can be assessed as negligence.. Ultimately, in non-face-to-face medical treatment, it is important to review the need to switch to face-to-face treatment along with medical treatment and to clearly state the basis for that decision.. The process of not only accepting the patient's statement as is, but also ruling out red flags through additional questionnaires, becomes the core of legal defense.. The most frequent problem area in non-face-to-face treatment is prescriptions.. If repeated prescriptions are made at the patient's request or drugs are prescribed without sufficient confirmation, this may be evaluated as a violation of medical law beyond simple negligence.. In particular, in cases involving narcotics or medicines that may be misused, it may be judged as an immoral medical practice and may lead to license suspension, and if insurance claims are combined, it may be expanded to criminal liability.. Moreover, if a medical record is created or a claim is made even though an actual examination has not occurred, the risk increases even further.. Many of the disputes that arise in practice arise from the good intentions of medical staff.. 'Please prescribe the same medicine as I have always taken it.'This includes cases where a patient's request is accepted or a simple non-face-to-face prescription is given for symptoms that appear to be mild.. However, if the patient's condition is not sufficiently checked during this process, if a problem occurs later, the key issue is not the appropriateness of the prescription, but the 'Whether the examination was sufficient'Go to. In particular, in cases where a serious illness is mistaken for a mild illness, the lack of judgment in switching to face-to-face treatment may be assessed as direct negligence.. Responsibility lies with the medical staff…The key is 'Defensible Care' Non-face-to-face medical treatment is based on a platform, but legal responsibility is not distributed.. Even if an error in transmitting patient information or a system failure occurs, the final medical decision is made by the medical staff.. For example, if your identity is unclear., In cases where it is difficult to determine the condition only through explanations on behalf of the guardian, Cases where it is difficult to make a judgment based on audio alone without video, Or, if the medical examination is cut off due to a connection error, it is advisable to establish standards to guide in-person visits or emergency room visits rather than continuing treatment.. Many medical staff tend to perceive the risk of non-face-to-face treatment as a simple medical accident problem., In reality, administrative and criminal risks often materialize faster than civil risks.. A patient's civil lawsuit takes time depending on proving causality, but, Administrative investigation or local confirmation, Reviews for nursing care benefits can be done much more quickly.. If a claim is made without meeting the requirements for non-face-to-face treatment, it may be evaluated as an unfair claim., This can lead not only to recovery, but also to business suspension or fines.. In particular, if the prescription itself is illegal, even the cost of the drug may be subject to reimbursement, resulting in a significant burden on medical institutions.. In the end, what matters is 'It's dangerous so don't do it'not, 'Let’s create and operate a structure to control legal risks.'is the point. Although it is clear that non-face-to-face treatment needs to be introduced for management reasons,, The premise is to establish safe operating standards.. Therefore, the question medical staff must ask themselves in the era of non-face-to-face treatment is simple.. 'Can you do this treatment?'not, 'Can I legally explain and defend this treatment?'am. Subject to non-face-to-face medical treatment under this standard, paperweight, prescription, record, claim, The entire process, including platform utilization, must be redesigned.. Non-face-to-face medical treatment is an inevitable trend, but, We must keep in mind that unprepared introduction can lead to the most dangerous legal trap for medical staff at any time.. |contribution| Attorney Soyoung Yoon, Daeryun Law Firm [View full article] [Contribution] Fully allowing non-face-to-face medical treatment, ‘legal pitfalls’ that medical staff must be aware of (link) 2026-05-14T01:09:39.832Z https://www.daeryunlaw.com/en/broadcast/6265 There are increasing cases of airport arrival halls turning into investigation scenes in an instant upon returning from a pleasant trip. According to statistics from the Korea Customs Service, the detection of drug smuggling by travelers in the first quarter of this year increased by 128% compared to the same period last year. Now, drug smuggling is not just a problem for certain criminal organizations, but has become a realistic threat where even ordinary travelers can be exposed to crime without even realizing it. The tragic story of good citizens being accused of being ‘drug smugglers’ usually starts with an extremely routine request. A typical example is when an acquaintance you have built a close relationship with overseas asks you to “carry just one bag for me because I have too much luggage,” or asks you to deliver a specific item in exchange for financial support for airfare and lodging through SNS. On the outside, it may seem like a simple request or errand, but the moment drugs are discovered at the arrival hall, you can immediately become an accomplice to drug smuggling, a serious crime. The biggest characteristic of cases like this is the urgency of the investigation process. Starting with X-ray reading immediately after entry, detailed baggage inspection, mobile phone digital forensics, and account tracking are carried out simultaneously. Immediately after detection, most people complain of injustice, saying, “I had no idea that the contents were drugs,” but unfortunately, in legal terms, it is very unlikely that such a claim can serve as grounds for acquittal. Our courts broadly recognize ‘intention to fail to carry out’ even if there was no definite knowledge or if the person took the risk of transport despite being able to foresee the risk given the circumstances. In particular, if payment was received even though the source of the goods is unclear, or if the contents were not confirmed even though the delivery method was secret and abnormal, the court considers this as evidence of ‘intention to tolerate the possibility of a crime.’ What is even more dangerous is lying or retracting statements in the early stages of the investigation out of embarrassment. This is seen by investigative agencies as an attempt to conceal a crime, and may become a decisive reason for requesting an arrest warrant. Therefore, it is important to respond logically by quickly organizing objective data such as the specific circumstances of receiving the goods, messenger conversation history, and travel itinerary, rather than emotional complaints. The consistent view of investigative agencies and courts is that drug smuggling is not simply an individual's deviance, but is the actual starting point of all drug crimes that shake the foundation of our community. In fact, according to Article 58 of the Narcotics Control Act, anyone who exports or imports drugs can be sentenced to life imprisonment or more than five years in prison. This means that regardless of whether it is a first offense, the possibility of being sentenced to prison is overwhelmingly high, and it is impossible to expect leniency based on the qualifier of ‘simple participant.’ Park Jeong-gu, a lawyer at the Daeryun Law Firm, said, “In the end, a request to transport another person’s goods of unknown origin under the pretense of a light favor during the entry process or a request to deliver goods in exchange for a large sum beyond common sense is highly likely to pose a serious legal risk in itself.” “If you are caught up in an unexpected incident, securing your right to defense through a legal review by an expert with experience in drug cases before the first statement is recorded is the most realistic response to maintaining a peaceful daily life.”[View full article] Traveler drug smuggling, punishable even if you “don’t know”… Criminal risk starts at the airport (link) 2026-05-11T16:14:53.375Z https://www.daeryunlaw.com/en/broadcast/6264 Daeryun Law Firm joined hands with GS Cable, a mid-sized manufacturer in the Gyeongnam region, to establish a strategic partnership to revitalize the local economy and support businesses.

Unlike the overall delivery industry's attempt to manage the situation through procedural responses, some analyzes say that BGF Retail's business structure and initial response choices ultimately increased the management burden. According to the distribution industry and labor circles on the 24th, BGF Logis, a logistics subsidiary of BGF Retail, began working-level negotiations with Korea Freight Workers' Union on the 22nd. It has been 43 days since the implementation of the Yellow Bag Act. This is in contrast to the fact that many of the major companies in the industry that received requests for negotiation began response procedures within the first 10 days or so of the law's enforcement. Coupang Logistics Service (CLS) announced its request for negotiation on March 10, the day the law went into effect. CJ Logistics posted factual notices on the 17th, Lotte Global Logistics and Rosen Express on the 18th, and Hanjin Express on the 19th. The actions of these companies are interpreted as a strategic choice to manage conflicts within the system, independent of legal judgment. However, there are differing interpretations among practitioners regarding the legal meaning of the factual announcement. Ryu Soon-geon, a labor attorney representing Leein Labor Law Firm, explained, "From the employer's perspective, posting a factual notice can serve as evidence that the union has been recognized as a bargaining target. As of now, there are no specific guidelines from the government, so companies will have no choice but to be cautious about whether or not to post a factual notice." Next, the union advised, “If the primary contractor does not respond to the request for negotiation, one option is to file an appeal with the Labor Relations Commission and receive a decision.” Bang In-tae, an attorney at Daeryun Law Firm, said, “The public notice of the request for negotiation itself is nothing more than the implementation of statutory procedures, so it is difficult to view it as a direct recognition of user status.” He added, “In the end, the key is how dependent the worker is on the side claiming to be the employer and provides labor. If the contract structure focuses on working conditions and processes rather than outcomes, there is a high possibility of negotiation obligations regardless of the government’s interpretation, so it is necessary to check the contract in advance.” It is also pointed out that policy uncertainty affected the company’s judgment. Immediately after the enforcement of the law, Minister of Employment and Labor Kim Young-hoon drew a line saying that this cargo solidarity issue was not subject to application, but after the fatal accident occurred, he readjusted his existing position, citing the absence of a communication channel. Minister Kim said, “The main contractor that must engage in negotiations with cargo drivers is BGF Retail, the CU operator,” and also interpreted the cargo union that did not report the establishment of a union, saying, “Even if they are self-employed in form, if they are subordinated in substance, they can be considered workers.” The Central Labor Relations Commission announced that it would prepare guidelines for judging usability at the time of enforcement of the law, but no substantive standards have been presented to date. In the industry, it is assessed that many companies do not fully understand the yellow envelope law and are having difficulty coming up with a response strategy in the absence of clear guidelines. An industry official said, “A significant number of companies lack understanding of the yellow envelope law,” and “They are unable to come up with a clear response plan and are only waiting for government guidance and are closely watching the market situation.” Citing a law professor, academics also point out that “there are opinions that the implementation of the revised law is premature,” and that “the enforcement of the law was rushed ahead at a stage when specific guidelines or judgment standards were not yet mature, causing confusion in the field.” BGF Retail said. Based on the government's initial interpretation of the law, the government chose to wait for the National Labor Relations Commission's decision, but as the conflict continued, the management burden increased. Some see this issue as an example of increased costs due to the delay in choosing the timing of negotiations, rather than a negotiation that was impossible from the beginning, given that negotiations were eventually concluded. As logistics work has been vertically integrated through BGF Logis, this incident is expected to serve as an opportunity to expand the discussion surrounding the actual scope of influence and responsibility of the main contractor to the distribution industry as a whole.[View full article] 'Yellow envelope law for one month' Quiet delivery company... The reason why conflict only increased in CU (Shortcut) 2026-05-14T05:56:18.070Z https://www.daeryunlaw.com/en/broadcast/6262 It has been about a month since the revised Trade Union and Labor Relations Adjustment Act (hereinafter referred to as the Union Act), also known as the 'Yellow Envelope Act', went into effect. On the surface, the system appears to be settling down, with about 140,000 subcontracted workers requesting negotiations, but the temperature felt by the main contracting companies on site is quite different. In particular, in line with the expansion of user rights under Article 2 of the revised Trade Union Act, the results of the Labor Relations Commission's 'separation of bargaining units' judgment on the subcontractor's union's request for direct bargaining are mixed for each case, and the company's management risk is falling into unpredictable judicial uncertainty. When faced with the subcontractor's union's request for collective bargaining, the main contractor must go through the process of unifying the bargaining channel to decide 'with whom and how to negotiate', and the key issue in this process is the union law. It is a ‘separate bargaining unit’ system stipulated in Article 29-3. Looking at the recent trend of rulings by the Labor Relations Commission, separation of bargaining units is exceptionally cited in cases where significant differences in working conditions such as wage system or working environment between primary and subcontracted workers are proven or when job independence is clear. On the other hand, in cases where there has been a practice of integrating primary and subcontracting in one workplace for negotiation in the past or where the characteristics of the subcontracting union are judged to be reasonable even if they are merged into the existing bargaining unit, the application for separation is strictly dismissed, depending on the specific facts. Legal standards are being applied. The fact that the Labor Relations Commission's judgment results are so mixed suggests that if companies wait and see the situation without a thorough legal review in advance, they may take on fatal risks in the future. If the separation of bargaining units is adopted contrary to the company's intention, enormous administrative costs and confusion in management will occur as the company must individually set up a negotiation table with multiple subcontracting unions. Conversely, if the separation is rejected and bundled into a single large window, the ripple effect of industrial action such as solidarity strikes by subcontractor unions will grow uncontrollably. In other words, regardless of the direction of the decision, the number of cases that companies face all involve significant labor risks. Therefore, prime contract companies should avoid a wait-and-see attitude, relying on the government's optimism shown in the indicators. A company's response strategy should not be passively guided by the Labor Relations Commission's decision, but should focus on building a 'preemptive and objective logic of explanation' to set up a negotiation structure that is advantageous to the company. To this end, the legal and human resources departments must go beyond document review and closely inspect and redesign the situation on site. First, measures to separate work spaces, movement lines, and rest facility use times can be considered as factors that can show differences in working conditions. In addition, special attention must be paid to minimizing the circumstances of direct orders from the primary office that can easily become controversial. It is advisable to avoid accidental on-site work instructions through mobile messengers or text messages, and to prepare communication guidelines for primary and subcontractors and guide them to members. Furthermore, it is a good idea to examine the company's response logic in advance by assuming a hypothetical negotiation request situation with an external expert. In this way, establishing practical guidelines and supplementing expected blind spots in advance is the most realistic alternative to substantially reducing the burden on companies under the current legal system. Since legal judgments may vary depending on the specific circumstances of each individual business, it is appropriate to obtain advice from a legal expert.[View full article] Conflicting decisions on ‘separation of bargaining units’… What is the primary company’s response strategy? (Shortcut) 2026-05-14T05:03:28.015Z https://www.daeryunlaw.com/en/broadcast/6261 In recent times in our society, inheritance is no longer a problem only for some wealthy individuals. Issues such as property disputes between children, the whereabouts of real estate donated during one's lifetime, and whether or not children's contributions to their parents should be recognized are becoming more and more diverse, and related lawsuits are also increasing explosively. In fact, according to the Supreme Court Judicial Yearbook, lawsuits requesting the return of oil have more than tripled in 10 years, from 590 cases in 2012 to 1,872 cases in 2022. The problem is that as disputes become more routine and complicated, many people are missing the most fundamental key to determining victory or defeat. No matter how intense the emotions or how clear the evidence is, a lawsuit cannot even begin if it does not exceed the ‘time’ threshold set by law. Inheritance disputes often start with emotional conflict, but the legal end is ultimately reached within the ‘legal golden time’ when rights can be exercised. In lawsuits over reserve, the court strictly examines ‘when the right was exercised’ as well as the legitimacy of the right. Article 1117 of the Civil Code stipulates that the right to claim return of reserved portion must be exercised within one year from the date of commencement of inheritance and the date of knowledge of the gift or bequest that must be returned. This regulation is not a simple period limit, but is the primary gateway to determining whether the exercise of rights is legal. In many cases, the battle over the ‘point of recognition’ rather than the amount of contribution becomes the key issue. In particular, the standard of ‘not knowing’ is subjective, so objective proof is very difficult. There are many cases where property transfers between families are not documented, and interpretations differ depending on each person's memory only after a dispute occurs. In the end, the court determines whether or not it is recognized by combining various circumstances rather than determining a specific point in time. Kwak Nae-won, an inheritance lawyer at Daeryun Law Firm, explained, "In this process, it is 'evidence' that determines whether or not you will actually win the case. Even if there is no formal data such as a contract or notarial deed, everyday records such as text messages, account flow, role division among family members, and property management methods serve as a decisive basis for proving the time of recognition. Rather than the fragmentary power of individual data, the core competency of a lawyer is to create a 'logical flow' formed by connecting these circumstances." He continued, "A recent case is a representative example. When the decedent passed away after gifting real estate to a specific child while alive and leaving an intention to bequeath it, other heirs filed a lawsuit claiming infringement of the reserve. The issue was when the plaintiffs knew about the gift." Attorney Kwak Nae-won said, "By closely analyzing past text messages and how they managed their assets during their lifetime, we proved that the plaintiffs had already been aware of the gift for a long time. The content of past conversations, which implied that they had already received everything, served as a decisive clue to support the fact of knowledge. The court determined that the plaintiffs filed the lawsuit after the statute of limitations had expired and dismissed all claims." He went on to say, "The above case shows that a suit for reserve is not simply a matter of contesting whether or not there is more or less property. Regardless of whether the right exists, 'whether it was exercised on time' is a prerequisite for victory. Therefore, in a dispute for reserve, early diagnosis is more important than responding after the fact. The party claiming the right must quickly check the property transfer details immediately after the start of inheritance and calculate the statute of limitations. Conversely, the defending party needs to preemptively secure materials to prove that the other party was already aware of the gift." reported. Attorney Kwak Nae-won said, "Conversations and records between family members tend to disappear as time passes. If a dispute is expected, related data must be systematically organized. The essence of a lawsuit over retained assets is ultimately 'time and proof.' The approach of logically combining accurate facts and evidence within a short period of one year determines actual victory or defeat."[View full article] In a lawsuit over oil reserves, the one-year statute of limitations and evidence determine the outcome (Shortcut) 2026-05-14T06:57:17.382Z https://www.daeryunlaw.com/en/broadcast/6260 A house teacher who was accused of child abuse for raising her voice and admonishing students during the dormitory guidance process was acquitted. According to the legal community on the 23rd, the Cheongju District Prosecutors' Office decided not to indict A, a woman in her 50s who was sent on charges of violating the Special Act on the Punishment of Child Abuse Crimes on the 10th of last month. Ms. A worked at a middle school dormitory in North Chungcheong Province last year and asked students, "Why don't you clean it?" He was suspected of emotional abuse by making remarks such as "Don't you think" and "Think about it before you live". He was also accused of putting psychological pressure on students who returned home late at night, such as blocking their entrance and not letting them sleep. Mr. A completely denied the allegations. At that time, there were repeated situations where students did not follow the rules of life, such as returning late at night, so we provided guidance to correct this, and argued that there was no intention of abuse at all, as their voices were temporarily raised in a situation where their condition was not good at the time. The prosecution found that Mr. A's charges were not recognized. The prosecution judged that emotional abuse under the Child Welfare Act refers to an act that reaches the level of harming a child's mental health or normal development, and that it is difficult to admit it simply because of a simple admonition or increased vocalization. In addition, the illegality of the act explained that the relationship between the actor and the child, the situation at the time of the act, repetition, and changes in the victim's condition, etc., said. "Child abuse and discipline for educational purposes must be distinguished," said lawyer Nam Sang-gwan of Daeryun Law Firm, who represented Mr. A. “This case was a one-time act within the scope of routine discipline, and we were able to receive an acquittal by focusing on the fact that violence or repetition was not recognized,” he explained.

Although the patient with a duodenal ulcer had symptoms that suggested the possibility of perforation, the hospital failed to conduct additional tests and provide treatment, leading to the death of the patient. Ulsan District Court Judge Woo Jung-min acknowledged 60% of the defendants' responsibility in the lawsuit (2024 Gadan 105323) filed by the husband and two children of Patient A (58 years old at the time) in Chungju City against Hospital B in Chungju and the head of internal medicine at Hospital B, who was the attending physician, demanding compensation for damages on April 10, saying, "The attending physician should stand in solidarity with Hospital B and pay a total of 156 million won to the plaintiffs." ruled. Hospital B was declared bankrupt in September 2024, and the plaintiffs' claims for damages against Hospital B were confirmed as bankruptcy claims. On September 18, 2023, A visited the internal medicine department of Hospital B with symptoms such as abdominal pain and vomiting, was diagnosed with gastroenteritis and colitis, and was hospitalized for treatment. However, his symptoms worsened and he was transferred to another hospital on September 26, where he was diagnosed with acute peritonitis due to a perforated duodenal ulcer and underwent surgery, but ultimately died. Judge Woo acknowledged the attending physician's diagnostic negligence. Judge Woo said, "Although perforation was not confirmed in the endoscopy performed by the attending physician on September 25, 2023, if a duodenal ulcer accompanied by severe bleeding was observed and abdominal pain continued to be complained afterward, there is room for suspicion of duodenal ulcer perforation. Even if there was no perforation, a nasogastric tube should have been inserted to check for bleeding or a computed tomography scan to check for active bleeding and necessary treatment should have been considered. However, the attending physician should have checked the presence of active bleeding the next day. He pointed out that "only symptomatic treatment such as administration of antipyretics and dopamine was administered until 18:00," and that "although the attending physician was prescribing peptic ulcer treatment to A after the endoscopy, symptoms such as decreased blood pressure, increased pulse, and oliguria were observed in A around 14:40 on September 26, 2023, and anuria was confirmed at around 15:00 after insertion of an indwelling urinary catheter, multiple organ failure. “Although septic shock was suspected and it was very urgent and important to determine the cause, the medical records submitted by the defendant hospital do not confirm the tests or diagnosis performed by the attending physician to determine the cause.” Judge Woo also pointed out, "A's condition deteriorated rapidly between September 25 and 26, 2023, and the expert judge judged that the prognosis could have been different if the attending physician had made an appropriate diagnosis and treatment before A fell into multiple organ failure and septic shock, or if A had been immediately transferred for treatment if treatment at the defendant hospital was judged to be impossible," and "A's prognosis could have been different after the attending physician performed an endoscopy." “It can be acknowledged that A failed to provide appropriate treatment to A due to negligence in diagnosing the condition, leading to A’s death from peritonitis and multiple organ failure due to perforation of the duodenum.” Judge Woo stated, however, that the defendant's medical staff failed to diagnose duodenal perforation, peritonitis, and multiple organ failure in a timely manner, and as a result, A died without receiving proper treatment. However, the defendant's medical staff also performed abdominal radiography and endoscopy in response to A's complaints of abdominal pain, and the results showed no findings suspicious for perforation. Basic treatment according to A's symptoms was continued, and the causes of abdominal pain were diverse, so perforation or peritonitis was diagnosed when a duodenal ulcer was diagnosed. Considering that there may have been some difficulties, the defendants' liability was limited to 60%. Daeryun Law Firm represented the plaintiffs.

Legal Times Reporter Kim Deok-seong (dsconf@legaltimes.co.kr)[View full article] [Medical] “Patient dies due to failure to take appropriate measures despite symptoms of suspected duodenal perforation… 60% of hospital responsibility” (link) 2026-05-14T01:10:08.364Z https://www.daeryunlaw.com/en/broadcast/6258 Lawyer Beomsu Yoon, Daeryun Law Firm In the past, many local governments continued the practice of outsourcing all work to brokers during the process of introducing foreign seasonal workers due to language barriers, complicated administrative procedures, and lack of manpower. This is why the Ministry of Justice began a large-scale inspection of businesses introducing seasonal workers for about three months starting this month. This inspection is targeting 27 cities and counties across the country that have received more than 100 seasonal workers or have caused social controversy in the past due to issues related to seasonal workers. If a violation is discovered or a request for correction such as accommodation improvement is not complied with, special attention is needed from each local government as they may be excluded from future seasonal worker assignments. In particular, they must face the fact that the weight of legal responsibility is different from before. Article 94, Paragraph 11-2 of the revised Immigration Control Act, which came into effect on January 23, strictly prohibits the act of receiving money or valuables by intervening in the selection, placement, or recruitment of seasonal workers, and stipulates that violations will result in imprisonment of up to 3 years or a fine of up to 30 million won. This means that the secret link between 'local government-private broker-farm owner', which was tolerated in the past for administrative convenience, is now treated as a serious crime in which local government officials and farm owners can be implicated as accomplices. So how should local governments defend against such judicial risks and the possibility of administrative sanctions? The key is the directization of administration and the establishment of a specific ‘compliance (compliance) system’. Like the Geochang-gun model in South Gyeongsang Province, the county office should directly carry out visa acquisition and administrative procedures that previously depended on brokers, and directly select workers through local interviews, thereby completely blocking any room for private intervention. In addition, a specific manual is needed to prevent and manage human trafficking crimes, such as passport confiscation or wage theft, at the local government level. When concluding a labor contract between a farm and a worker, the local government must clearly announce the prohibition on confiscation of ID cards and bank accounts and require a pledge to this effect. Furthermore, dedicated personnel should be deployed within local governments to regularly cross-verify farmers' wage payment details and living conditions, including accommodations, in accordance with the Ministry of Justice's inspection standards, and establish communication channels to respond immediately when problems arise. Through this, blocking illegal elements early and proving that the management and supervision system that complies with legal standards is functioning properly will be a key strategy to safely protect seasonal worker quotas for local agricultural and fisheries. ● Contributions by external writers may differ from the editorial direction of this paper.

Daeryun Law Firm, together with the Korea Foreign Companies Association (KOFA), will hold a conference room at the Daeryun main office in Park One, Yeouido, Seoul at 3 p.m. on the 7th of next month. It was announced on the 22nd that it would hold a ‘US tariff refund and trade risk response seminar for foreign companies’. Any foreign company executives or managers from related departments such as HR, legal affairs, finance, purchasing, SCM, and logistics can attend the seminar. Applications for attendance and detailed curriculum can be found on the Daeryun Law Firm website. This seminar goes beyond providing guidance on the refund application process and is designed to help build preemptive governance to respond to complex legal and contractual issues that may arise after refunds and trade pressure from the United States. At the seminar, Daeryun experts with expertise in customs and global corporate law will appear as presenters. The seminar will be held in a total of two sessions, and in the first part, customs expert Jae-ho Myung will present on the topic of ‘U.S. IEEPA tariff refund system and latest practical trends.’ Commissioner Myeong is an expert who has overseen trade review and FTA consulting at major companies such as Hyundai Express and Korea Origin Information Service. It presents strategies to respond to administrative difficulties and customs screening that companies may face during the refund process. In Part 2, foreign attorney Dong-Hoo Son (USA) will present on the topic ‘Issues after refund: Official importer structure, refund attribution, and subsequent trade risks.’ Attorney Son is an investment and corporate law expert who has successfully led a number of cross-border projects, including consulting on global pharmaceutical companies' entry into the U.S. market. He explains that the opening of CBP's portal is a practical follow-up to the U.S. Federal Court's unconstitutional ruling in February, and presents scenarios that foreign companies may experience. Specifically, we plan to deal in depth with practical sensitive issues such as the step-by-step application scope of the CAPE refund system, response to refund settlement disputes between headquarters and corporations, and follow-up response directions for CAPE exclusion cases. Daeryun Kim Kuk-il, CEO of CBP, said, “With the operation of CBP’s portal, a practical path has been opened for importers who paid the so-called Trump tariffs to receive refunds.” “The goal is to ensure logical consistency,” he emphasized.

Whenever a case of a criminal minor who committed a violent crime is reported, the criticism that “they are not punished because they are a juvenile under the law” is repeated. In the current legal system, a juvenile under the criminal law refers to a criminal minor between the ages of 10 and 14 who has committed an act that violates criminal laws. Although they are not subject to criminal punishment, such as imprisonment or fines, they are subject to protective measures under the Juvenile Act. Protective measures do not stop at the level of simple warnings or warnings, but a total of 10 measures are set, including △ entrustment to guardian supervision △ order to attend classes △ community service order △ probation (short-term, long-term) △ entrustment to a child welfare facility △ entrustment to a medical rehabilitation juvenile center △ transfer to a juvenile facility (within 1 month, short-term, long-term). Its intensity can never be considered light. In particular, transfer to a juvenile detention center is a measure of confinement and living in a facility for a certain period of time, which has a significant impact on the person involved in that their physical freedom is substantially restricted. Nevertheless, the biggest reason why the perception that ‘punishment is weak’ is formed is the difference in the nature of criminal punishment and protective measures. While criminal punishment has the nature of retribution and sanctions, protective measures aim at rehabilitation and resocialization. This is because the purpose of the Juvenile Act itself is to “take necessary measures, such as protective measures to adjust the environment and correct the behavior of anti-social boys, and help the healthy growth of boys.” In other words, society is demanding increasingly stronger punishment, but the law maintains a framework centered on reform, so the gap is the essence of the conflict surrounding the juvenile juvenile system. However, many of the juvenile juvenile cases occur due to complex factors such as problems in the home environment, neglect, and school maladjustment. The lowering of the minimum age for application of the Juvenile Act can be understood in this context. As the age of juvenile delinquency is decreasing and the nature of the crime is becoming a social problem in many cases, it is suggested that the state intervene early in the lives of anti-social juveniles. The problem is that this opportunity for reform is not properly utilized. If youth are left without appropriate intervention, they are more likely to commit more serious crimes as adults, ultimately causing greater damage and costs to society as a whole. Looking at some violent crime cases, the need to supplement the system is clearly recognized, and especially in cases where the seriousness and repetitiveness of the crime are clear, a more stringent response is required. However, this does not result in a single solution of ‘lowering the age.’ What is more important is to intervene appropriately at the stage of delinquency to prevent recidivism and to effectively implement a system that increases the possibility of returning to society. The discussion should go beyond emotional arguments and focus on essential areas to increase the effectiveness of protective measures, provide practical support to victims, and strengthen follow-up management to prevent recidivism.[View full article] [Expert Contribution] Debate over lowering the age of boys... Gap between ‘punishment’ and ‘rehabilitation’ (Shortcut) 2026-05-14T06:40:04.191Z https://www.daeryunlaw.com/en/broadcast/6254 [Interview] Lee Tae-seung, lawyer at Daeryun Law Firm, "No wearing of election campaign props or taking photos of ballot papers." As the 9th national simultaneous local election approaches in about 40 days, voters are required to be careful about their daily election activities. It is pointed out that in this election, regulations related to deepfake content using artificial intelligence (AI) technology will be strengthened, and indiscriminate information sharing may lead to legal risks. According to the legal community on the 21st, candidate registration for this local election will begin on the 21st after candidate registration from May 14th to 15th. Advance voting will be held on May 29-30, and main voting will be held on June 3. As the election schedule is in full swing, the proportion of reports received by the National Election Commission related to posts by ordinary citizens or messages in group chat rooms is maintained. Attorney Taeseung Lee of the Daeryun Law Firm said, “The Public Official Election Act regulates the behavior of not only candidates but also ordinary voters,” and added, “Manipulated content such as deepfakes spread quickly, so the act of dissemination itself can directly lead to serious legal problems.” The most important thing voters should be careful about is the sharing of deepfake videos and synthetic voices. Producing, editing, and distributing deepfake content for election campaign purposes is prohibited from 90 days before election day until election day. If you do not indicate that it is virtual information or spread fabricated content as if it were fact, you may be punished for publishing false information or defamation. There are also restrictions on daily SNS activities. It is possible to post support for or opposition to a specific candidate on social media, but sending mass messages using an automatic program is illegal. You should also be careful about repeatedly posting promotional messages in chat rooms organized for a specific candidate or political party. The use of election campaign props and behavior in polling places are also subject to regulation. Ordinary voters who are not registered as election officials cannot wear election campaign props such as shoulder belts, identical clothing, or pickets. On the day of voting, taking photos outside the polling place is allowed, but taking photos of ballots inside the polling place and posting them on social media is prohibited. If you damage election posters or banners, you may be punished by imprisonment for up to two years or by a fine of up to 4 million won. Attorney Lee said, "When notified of a possible violation, it is important to preserve the data and receive expert assistance rather than arbitrarily deleting the post," and added, "During election season, even short expressions can become legal issues, so prior advice is necessary."

On the 1st, the Daegu District Court found A, a woman in her 60s, not guilty on charges of fraud. In 2023, Ms. A deceived her acquaintance, Mr. B, by telling her that she would receive interest if she invested in virtual assets. He was accused of embezzling 25 million won. Initially, Mr. A received a summary order to pay a fine of 5 million won, but he objected and requested a formal trial. During the trial, Mr. A claimed that he had invested through a normal virtual asset management company, but was unable to give the money to Mr. B because the company suddenly stopped paying principal and interest. In the process, the company refuted that it could not even secure transaction details because it blocked access to the computerized transaction network. The court found Mr. A not guilty. The court said, “It is confirmed that the defendant used some of the money he received for personal purposes,” but added, “However, the defendant attempted to pay coins equivalent to interest, but it appears that access to the app was suddenly blocked and could not be delivered to the victim.” He continued, “Given that the employee of the company also made a statement consistent with this, the defendant received the money believing that the investment would be made normally, but it is highly likely that he was unable to secure the coins due to the company's unilateral access blocking measures.” “It is difficult to conclude that there was deception,” he added. Lawyer Shin Min-soo of Daeryun Law Firm, who represented Mr. A, explained, “In order to be guilty of fraud, there must be no intention or ability to repay the money from the beginning.” He added, “Through the statement of the company employee, etc., we were able to obtain a not guilty verdict by objectively proving that Mr. A was only a victim due to the blocking of the transaction network and that there was no intention of defrauding him.” whyjay@sportsseoul.comReporter Shin Jae-yu[View full article] A man in his 60s who stole investment funds using coin investment bait...

"We will provide all legal support," he said, predicting a strong response. While excessive abuse of power and acts of violence toward workers in the service industry continue, there are growing voices calling for this incident to be treated as a serious criminal act beyond a simple incident. In relation to this, lawyer Daeryun Jeong-jun of the law firm said, "The perpetrator's actions are a serious matter that goes beyond simple assault and can overlap with multiple criminal crimes." He added, "Both the victim and the business owner must take decisive legal action by promptly securing evidence. “Second damage can be prevented,” he emphasized. The following is a Q&A with Attorney Jeong regarding the legal issues in this case. -According to the video, the customer punched the employee in the face, followed him to an employee-only space, and committed violence. In this case, what charges are applied to the perpetrator, and is there a possibility of imprisonment? ▲As direct physical force was used on the body of another person, assault is basically established under criminal law. If the victim submits a medical certificate stating that he or she needs physical or mental treatment, such as bruises or post-traumatic stress disorder, as a result of this incident, he or she may be subject to a much more severe crime of bodily harm and may be imprisoned for up to 7 years, suspended for up to 10 years, or fined up to 10 million won. In the case of 'substantive concurrent offenders' who commit multiple crimes at the same time, aggravated punishment is imposed, so the possibility of a prison sentence cannot be ruled out. - Even if there is no physical violence like in this case, there are customers who hurl harsh profanity or insulting language at part-time workers at restaurants or cafes. Is verbal violence without physical contact legally punishable? ▲ Even if there is no physical contact, it is fully subject to criminal punishment. If you hurled severe profanity or ridicule at a specific employee in a public place with other customers, the performance and specificity are recognized and you can be sued for insult. In addition, if a person shouts and makes the store atmosphere unpleasant, making it impossible to accept orders or operate the store, this can also be punished as obstruction of business. - When assaulted while defenseless, a part-time worker may instinctively swing his arms or push the assailant. In this case, to what extent is the victim's self-defense legally recognized? ▲In practice, there are quite a few cases where two parties are unfairly booked together for assault. Because simple assault is a 'crime of impunity without punishment' that cannot be punished if the victim does not want to be punished, perpetrators often take advantage of this and file countersuits to force them to reach a settlement. The court tends to apply the requirements for recognition of self-defense relatively strictly. Defensive actions, such as passively pushing away to escape the other person's violence, are recognized as resistance, but there is a risk that an active counterattack due to intensified emotions or a counterattack that crosses the line may be treated as a two-sided assault. Therefore, it is important to legally explain from the initial investigation stage through objective evidence such as CCTV that it was an inevitable 'passive resistance' that occurred during the defense process. - Under the Occupational Safety and Health Act, employers' obligations to protect workers from verbal abuse or assault by customers have been strengthened. The head office also announced legal support, but what measures should the head office take for the affected employees? ▲According to Article 41 of the Occupational Safety and Health Act, also known as the Emotional Workers Protection Act, employers must immediately temporarily suspend the worker's work and provide sufficient rest when a customer's verbal abuse or assault occurs. In addition, there is a legal obligation to provide psychological counseling when necessary and to actively assist injured workers when they take legal action, such as filing a complaint or filing a complaint against the perpetrator. If the business owner forces an apology from the affected employee to alleviate the situation or neglects to implement these protective measures, the business owner may also be subject to a fine of up to 10 million won.

In line with the global expansion of domestic companies, the inflow of American companies seeking to use the Korean market as a test bed is also steadily increasing. As cross-border expansion between the two countries becomes more active, the importance of 'cross-border risk management' is also increasing. According to the Ministry of SMEs and Startups and the Ministry of Trade, Industry and Energy, as of 2024, exports to the US by Korean small and medium-sized enterprises increased by $1.88 billion compared to the previous year. Direct investment (FDI) by U.S. companies in Korea also reached $5.24 billion, showing active two-way exchange. However, during the entry process, companies face complex legal and institutional differences, such as U.S. employment and environmental regulations that differ by state, Korea's unique serious accident punishment law, and fair trade regulations. In particular, small and medium-sized businesses that have difficulty in systematically establishing an in-house legal system often face difficulties in responding to these risks. Considering these market demands, Daeryun provides integrated advisory services in conjunction with SJKP, a local corporation in New York. First, we support corporate establishment and M&A, local labor law and tax risk checks, and core technology protection so that domestic companies can stably take root in the U.S. market. In the process of localizing American companies in the Korean market, we operate an 'inbound customized package' such as reviewing tax reduction benefits related to foreign investment, establishing a personnel and labor system optimized for domestic laws, reviewing business combinations, and responding to fair trade risks. Here, we combine practical customs solutions such as customs screening and country of origin verification that occur during import and export customs clearance. The policy is to manage the legal and logistics risks experienced by companies in both countries. Related practical advice will be provided by experts with diverse field experience in each field. Kyeong-won Yoon, head of the corporate legal group, who is well-versed in domestic and international corporate law, having served as a legal affairs partner at an embassy as a former chief prosecutor, and Jong-soo Shin, a former partner at Kim & Chang Law Firm, support M&A and tax strategies. Gye-jun Son, a former secretary of the Fair Trade Commission, provides advice on regulatory response, and Jae-ho Myung and Dae-ryun Kim, customs experts, support trade and customs clearance. Local response in the U.S. and coordination between the two countries are handled by Daeryun. Foreign lawyers and lawyers from SJKP are in charge. Foreign attorney Dong-Hoo Son (USA), who has experience in advising bio companies on their market entry, Mia Kim (USA), who is in charge of English-language contracts, and foreign lawyers Won Yeon Won and Joon-Yong Ahn (USA), who specialize in international arbitration and M&A, collaborate closely. At SJKP in New York, Bryce S. Robins, a former US local prosecutor, James Meaney, an expert in litigation practice, and Joseph Anthony, who has financial know-how, Attorney Joseph A. Raia will assist domestic companies in settling into the U.S. market. Daeryun CEO Kim Kuk-il said, "For a successful global business, not only product power but also thorough risk management based on the laws of each country must be supported. By combining the internal infrastructure of Daeryun Corporate Law Group and the local expertise of SJKP in New York, we will play the role of a legal assistant to help companies from both countries enter the stable market."

In the past, if you only returned the amount you received illegally, you might be treated leniently or passed over quietly, but now the situation has completely changed. When caught, it has become difficult to avoid not only punitive additional collection of up to five times the amount of illegal benefits, but also heavy criminal punishment. Due to a moment of wrong judgment, they were left with a huge debt and faced an irreversible crisis. According to Article 116 of the current Employment Insurance Act, a person who receives unemployment benefits by lying or other illegal means is subject to imprisonment for up to 3 years or a fine of up to 30 million won. If a crime is committed in collusion with a business owner, the offender will be punished with imprisonment for up to 5 years or a fine of up to 50 million won. Hiding the fact of re-employment after leaving the company or income from part-time work, as well as false proof of job-seeking activities are all clearly illegal, and depending on the intentionality of the case and the scale of the damage, the possibility of even being charged with fraud and being sentenced to prison cannot be ruled out. A clear defense strategy from the early stage of the investigation is essential to prevent criminal punishment and excessive punitive recovery. Bluntly denying or making excuses for the charges will only be seen as an attempt to conceal the crime from investigative agencies and provide an excuse for aggravated punishment. Rather, you must acknowledge the facts, actively cooperate with the investigation, and objectively prove that there was no malicious intent to defraud by explaining that the act was accidental and unavoidable. In addition, promptly returning the full amount of illegally received funds and showing a sincere attitude of remorse are key requirements for eliciting leniency. No matter how severe the punishment is expected, going through this systematic explanation process can prevent the worst outcome. In fact, one case in which the author personally acted as the defense attorney and led to a non-indictment is a representative example. Client A received a total of 12 million won in unemployment benefits over 6 months. However, even though he was re-employed only two months after leaving the company, he submitted a false unemployment certificate to the employment center, and the approximately 8.5 million won he received after re-employment was caught as illegal, putting him at risk of heavy criminal punishment. The author focused on proving that Mr. A did not have malicious and deliberate intent to defraud. The extenuating circumstances, including the health difficulties and extreme economic hardship that Mr. A was experiencing at the time, were summarized as objective data and submitted to the investigative agency. In addition, Mr. A strongly expressed that he was deeply reflecting on all of his crimes and was actively cooperating with the investigation, and most importantly, he promptly and voluntarily returned the entire amount of money he had illegally received. Accordingly, the prosecution accepted the defense's arguments, including Mr. A's sincere attitude of remorse and the fact that the full amount of benefits was returned, and decided not to indict. Mr. A was able to safely avoid imprisonment and return to his daily life. In cases of illegal receipt of unemployment benefits, the results are sharply different depending on how the initial golden time before attendance at the Labor Office and police investigation is spent. Rather than hastily reacting out of embarrassment, the wisest solution to get out of a crisis is to collect fact-based evidence and systematically explain it with the help of a legal expert with extensive experience in criminal cases from the beginning of the case.

According to the legal community on the 20th, the Incheon Bupyeong Police Station decided not to forward Doctor A and two officials who were booked on charges of violating the medical law on the 1st of last month. Mr. A was investigated for allegedly ordering the procedure to a nursing assistant after determining the patient's condition based only on video data and consultations last year. I received it. Article 27 of the Medical Service Act prohibits non-medical practitioners from performing medical practices that may cause harm to health and hygiene. Mr. A denied the charges. Mr. A claimed, “The patient visited the medical institution in person and underwent consultation and photography, and based on this, we judged whether or not the procedure was necessary. The act in question was at the level of skin care management that did not involve direct harm to the human body or tissue deformation, and was a procedure carried out within the medical institution according to the judgment and instructions of the doctor.” The police also believed that the procedure was within the scope of skin care, rather than medical treatment, and was unlikely to cause significant harm to the human body. At the same time, it was determined that it could not be considered a violation of the medical law because the procedure was performed by a nursing assistant under the doctor's judgment, management and supervision within the medical institution. Lawyer Jang Se-chang of Daeryun Law Firm, who represented Mr. A, said, "Whether or not the medical law was violated should be determined by comprehensively considering the content and risks of the actual act and the degree of medical intervention, not simply a formal procedure such as face-to-face contact." revealed.

However, the moment the owner arbitrarily extends the veranda or erects an illegal partition in front of the emergency exit, the carefully designed fire protection system becomes neutralized. Areas expanded through illegal renovation become blind spots for sprinklers, and flammable interior materials used indiscriminately emit toxic gases in the event of a fire, seriously threatening the 'safety golden time'. The recent fire at the Daejeon parts factory that took the lives of about 10 people is also believed to have started at an illegally repurposed space, and warnings are being issued about its danger. ‘Formally illegal’ buildings built without a permit or ‘substantially illegal’ buildings that do not meet the requirements cleverly avoid the examination of essential restrictions such as firefighting facilities and parking facilities. In response to this, the Supreme Court ruled that even if the aesthetics of illegal buildings are simply improved, there is a risk of neutralizing the power of architectural administration if illegal buildings are left unattended, and it has made it clear that crackdown on illegal buildings is a legitimate execution to protect the important value of 'firefighting public interest' (see Supreme Court decision 87nu714, etc.). In fact, lack of firefighting facilities in illegal buildings leads to harsh legal liability. In a case where casualties occurred due to a fire in a building whose use was changed without permission, the court recognized the owner's liability for professional negligence causing death (Jeonju District Court 2015 Godan 902 decision), and in civil terms, strict compensation liability is imposed for damages caused by the non-operation of essential disaster prevention facilities such as sprinklers. In particular, the building owner is responsible for conducting regular self-inspections on firefighting facilities, etc. in accordance with Article 22 of the Fire Service Act, and if he or she neglects this, he or she may be subject to both civil and criminal liability. Since fire inspection is not a simple administrative procedure but a key safety device that prevents potential disasters, it is most important to receive assistance from a professional lawyer familiar with the field of construction administration regarding the interpretation of relevant laws and the scope of duty performance. Ultimately, the issue of illegal buildings goes beyond the realm of administration and is directly related to serious safety issues that threaten the people's right to life. The reality that it is difficult to completely block secret illegal modifications despite regular investigations causes the vicious cycle of only realizing after an accident that it was a 'human accident' to be repeated. Everyone in our society must seriously recognize that the 'value of safety' secured through compliance with regulations is incomparably greater than the temporary economic gain gained by evading the law.

According to the legal community on the 17th, the Daegu District Prosecutor's Office Pohang Branch cleared Mr. A, a man in his 40s, who was transferred on charges of injury and confinement on the 26th of last month. Mr. A was accused of assaulting his wife, Mr. B, at their home in November of last year, causing two weeks worth of injuries, and confining her to prevent her from leaving the house until the next day. Ms. B claimed that her husband assaulted her face and other areas several times in front of her children. On the other hand, Mr. A denied all charges, saying that Mr. B was making false claims in order to gain an advantage in the divorce suit. Mr. A countered, saying, “At the time my wife said she was detained, she had already gone to work, and the children who were at home also stated that there had been no assault.” The prosecution acknowledged that there was a fight between A and B, but judged B’s claim that she had been assaulted to be unreliable. This is because the witnesses' statements that the assault did not occur were consistent, and Mr. B's statement regarding the injury and the contents of the medical certificate were different. Attorney Kim Hyun-soo of the Daeryun Law Firm, who represented Mr. A, said, "In this case, there were many circumstances in which the spouse made up untrue facts and filed a complaint to pressure the spouse during the divorce lawsuit. We quickly secured objective circumstantial evidence and the children's statements from the beginning of the case, and actively explored loopholes in the injury medical certificate submitted by the other party to protect Mr. A's right to defense. “There was,” he said.

Logistics on site, service, There are voices saying that it is difficult to determine at what point usability issues will arise because each manufacturing industry has different contract types and work instruction methods.. Experts advise that subcontractors should be checked for signs of substantive control before a request for negotiation is made..17According to the distribution industry, e-commerce, department store, franchise, large supermarket, Potential issues under the Yellow Envelope Act appear differently depending on the employment structure and actual work control method of each industry, including food and beverage manufacturing.. Initially, the industry judged that mid-to-high-end sectors such as manufacturing and construction would be affected first, but the distribution industry, which is involved with outsourced manpower, is also trending to ignore risks..In the distribution industry, the first to request negotiations were the logistics sector, including the courier union and cargo union.. Accordingly, online and offline channel industries such as e-commerce platforms are directly affected.. In distribution channels, the logistics subcontract structure and the ratio of outsourced manpower utilization have increased due to competition in delivery speed.. The key issue is the usability issue for special types of workers such as delivery drivers.. Platform companies control the work of delivery drivers through algorithms and applications, but classify the contract type as individual business.. If the actual control of the main contractor, the platform headquarters, is proven, an obligation to negotiate with the subcontractor's union arises, and a breakdown may lead to a paralysis of the logistics network..In the department store, outlet, and duty-free industries, there is a dispatch risk arising from a specific purchase structure.. The majority of store sales staff are affiliated with the store brand rather than the distribution channel.. Observe business hours, If the distribution channel has a practice of directly controlling business operations, such as customer service manuals, it may be considered an exercise of actual control, and issues of usability may arise.. If evidence of direct work instructions from the main contractor is secured, financial pressure is likely to occur..In the franchise and convenience store industry, joint userability issues between franchisors and franchise owners are emerging.. The franchise headquarters provides logistics for brand unity., store management, Apply the service manual to franchisees. The store owner hires part-time workers, but working conditions and work intensity are subordinate to the headquarters manual..

Large supermarkets have parking, US Dollar, The risk of direct employment was avoided by transferring security positions to subsidiaries, but the wage gap between employees directly managed by the headquarters and employees of subsidiaries remained an issue.. The practice of sending supplier employees to store management is also an issue.. Group catering companies entrust cooking and distribution staff.. If the primary contractor, the catering company, directly dictates the cooking time and hygiene standards, there is a possibility of user recognition.. The food and beverage manufacturing industry in-house subcontracts the production line., Logistics outsourcing, A complex subcontracting structure, such as dispatching promotional personnel, requires more detailed attention.. There is an urgent need to inspect subcontract contract actual control signs. There is a possibility that issues raised before the enforcement of the law will be rekindled with the implementation of the Yellow Envelope Act.. 2019In 2018, Lotte Mart hired suppliers’ employees without a separate written agreement. 906If the same situation is repeated, such as the case where a person was dispatched and was sanctioned by the Fair Trade Commission for illegal dispatch, legal liability may expand..

Lawyer Bang In-tae of Daeryun Law Firm "There is no choice but to raise the standards for judging usability from past illegal dispatch lawsuits."as "Business hours that focus on the work itself rather than a contract that focuses on the outcome, dress code, If the work process is instructed in detail or the service fee is calculated based on the number of people and wages, you may be exposed to risk regardless of business type."said.Lawyer Bang continued: "For example, if a safety issue arises because the franchise headquarters imposes a dress code or enforces the use of certain machines, franchise workers can request negotiation with the headquarters."as "When a department store contracts with a cleaning subcontractor, if the service price is calculated in detail based on the number of people and wages involved, the target of wage negotiation for subcontracted workers is the main contractor, not the subcontractor's owner."explained. And then "It is a mistake to be confident that subcontractors do not have unions."He said "According to the union law 2Since it is possible to establish a union and request negotiation with just a name, management must be aware that the obligation to negotiate can arise at any time even without a large-scale national organization."added.

While some companies are resolving legal disputes in advance or going through negotiation procedures, many companies are monitoring the situation without clear guidelines. According to Donghaeng Media Times' coverage on the 16th, each company in the distribution industry is responding to the characteristics of the industry by switching to direct employment, accepting negotiation within the law, and taking a wait-and-see approach. The most proactive types are those that changed their employment structure before legal disputes arose. BR Korea changed its employment structure to reduce the possibility of legal disputes. On the 8th of this month, the Chungju branch of the Ministry of Employment and Labor and the labor union announced a joint declaration between labor, management, and government, and directly hired all 180 production workers from HB Corporation, a partner company at the Eumseong factory in North Chungcheong Province. This is the result of three months of labor-management consultation. Baedal Minjok and E-Mart are examples of proactive responses to risks that were raised even before the enactment of the Yellow Bag Act. Woowa Brothers, the operator of Baedal Minjok, has regularized negotiations with the Delivery Platform Labor Union through its subsidiary Woowa Youth since 2020. Since 2013, E-Mart has converted its subcontracted and dispatched workforce to direct employment. At that time, more than 10,000 people were transferred to the headquarters. Some companies accepted the request for negotiation in accordance with legal principles. A representative example is the courier industry, where subcontractor unions have continued to be active. Under the Trade Union Act, the primary office that receives a request for negotiation must announce this, and if multiple unions exist, the representative negotiating union must be selected through the process of unifying the negotiation channel. CJ Logistics, Hanjin Express, Lotte Global Logistics, and Coupang CLS are currently waiting for the representative union selection process after receiving and responding to requests for negotiations from five courier unions. Industry officials said, “We will faithfully proceed with the negotiation process in accordance with relevant laws and regulations.” “Avoiding negotiation is a greater risk.” Check the contract structure first. Most distribution companies have not yet received a request for negotiation, so they are keeping an eye on the situation. However, the convenience store industry, such as GS Retail and BGF Retail, and e-commerce platforms, such as Musinsa, Avery, and Curly, have a high proportion of outsourced logistics, so guidelines need to be established. The food service industry, including Samsung Welstory, Our Home, and Hyundai Green Food, also has a large number of subcontractors. Each company is taking a cautious stance. An industry official said, "As the distribution industry involves various stakeholders such as partners, franchises, and logistics, we will respond carefully by examining the impact of system changes on the field." Concerns from the field were also raised. Industry insiders pointed out that "it is difficult to prepare proactive measures in a situation where there are no clear cases," "reckless demands may arise," and "the law was implemented with insufficient preparation for both workers and companies." Experts advise that even if a request for negotiation has not yet been received, subcontracts, etc. should be reviewed in advance. Attorney Bang In-tae of Daeryun Law Firm said, "It is natural for companies to lose their sense because a completely different order from the existing concept of user has been introduced," and pointed out, "Now is not the time to worry about whether or not to accept negotiations, but rather to consider each negotiation agenda." Attorney Bang continued, "The degree to which workers are dependent on the main contractor claiming to be the employer is a key indicator in determining usability." “If the processing process is instructed in detail or the service price is calculated based on the number of people and wages, you may be exposed to risk,” he said. He added, “Risk is more likely to arise from unprepared negotiation or avoidance than from incorrect negotiation,” adding, “It should be recognized as a problem not only in the human resources department but also in the overall management, which is connected to production, logistics, and legal affairs.” Reporter Hwang Jeong-won (garden@sidae.com)[View full article] Should we negotiate or wait and see? Temperature difference in distribution industry due to ‘Yellow Envelope Law in one month’ (Click here) 2026-05-13T13:11:05.895Z https://www.daeryunlaw.com/en/broadcast/6239 As the misuse of business loans for purposes other than their intended purpose is rapidly emerging as a key risk in the financial sector, a comprehensive investigation is in full swing. In the past, it was limited to sample inspections focusing on a few detected cases, but recently, the situation has changed with the financial authorities and the National Tax Service intervening simultaneously to track the entire process from loan execution to use of funds. In addition, there is a trend of strengthening crackdowns by investigative agencies. The National Police Agency announced that it conducted a 'special crackdown on real estate crime' for about 5 months from October 17 last year to March 15 this year, cracking down on a total of 1,493 people and sending 640 people, of which 7 people were arrested on serious charges. In particular, the Financial Supervisory Service and the National Tax Service are increasing the intensity of inspections as cases of real estate acquisition using business loans are accumulating, viewing this as an act of disrupting financial order and the real estate market. In this regard, the law firm Attorney Daeryun Shin Hye-jin emphasized, "If business loans and real estate acquisition are combined, it can lead to tax investigations and criminal liability beyond financial sanctions, so early management through cooperation with experts is essential." The following is a Q&A with Attorney Shin. Q. How is this full-scale real estate investigation conducted, and what are the key points that financial authorities look at first? ▲The core of the investigation is whether the purpose of the loan matches the actual use. This survey is not a simple sample check, but is conducted through comprehensive data analysis based on the financing plan. We collect all financing plans submitted when reporting home acquisition and classify them as business loans. Afterwards, financial institution loan data and National Tax Service reporting data will be cross-verified, and account flows will be analyzed to confirm whether the loan is connected to the real estate sale price, down payment, intermediate payment, or balance payment.Q. In what cases will it be detected? ▲The purchase of a home itself does not immediately lead to an illegality, but it may lead to investigation in cases where business loans are used directly as sales proceeds, when loan interest is treated as business expenses, or when real estate is acquired by lending corporate funds to individuals. In particular, if the loan flows through a personal account to the seller's account, or if the funds are transferred to a real estate transaction in a short period of time unrelated to the business, it may be judged as a loan for the purpose of acquiring real estate. In this case, corporate tax and additional taxes may be imposed due to denial of existing expenses.Q. What should I do if I have already purchased real estate using a loan, or if a problem is discovered during a thorough investigation? ▲Even if you have already acquired real estate using a loan, there is room for response. If you report corrections for evasion or voluntarily suggest a repayment plan before the financial institution's official notification of investigation, you can reduce the loss of overdue profits, reduction of additional taxes, and lower criminal risk. However, the timing of the revised report, method of explanation, submitted materials, and negotiation strategy vary greatly depending on the case. The National Tax Service can look into whether sales are omitted across the entire business, processing expenses, misappropriation of corporate funds, and mixing of personal and business funds, so it is important to review the law from the early stage.Q. If caught, what sanctions are there at the financial institution level? ▲Financial companies must check the suitability of business loans of 100 million won or more within 3 months after execution. If misuse other than the intended purpose is confirmed, the financial institution immediately recovers the loan, and the borrower's information is registered with the Korea Credit Information Service and shared with five financial industries, including banks, insurance, mutual finance, and credit-specialized financial institutions. If detected once, new loans may be restricted for 1 year, and if detected twice, new loans may be restricted for up to 5 years, which may affect overall business operations.Q. In what cases does it lead to criminal issues such as fraud? ▲The key is the intentional act of deception and defrauding at the loan application stage. If you stated that it was for business purposes but actually raised funds with the intention of purchasing real estate, you may be charged with fraud. In addition, if false business plans, sales data, tax invoices, or concealment of the use of funds are confirmed, this may lead to criminal charges. In particular, in the case of a corporation, if the representative used company funds to acquire a personal home, separate from fraud, the crime of business embezzlement under Article 356 of the Criminal Act may be raised. Because embezzlement at work is subject to aggravated punishment, the scope of criminal liability and level of punishment may be significantly heavier than for individuals.Q. How should I respond if I am notified of an investigation or if it leads to criminal proceedings? ▲It is most important to consistently organize the initial statement and direction for data submission. At the Financial Supervisory Service investigation stage, statements must be systematized focusing on the purpose of the loan and how funds were used, and at the National Tax Service response stage, all materials to prove the source of funds or business relevance must be prepared. At the criminal stage, the deceptive acts and intent to defraud, which are the requirements for establishing a crime of fraud, must be disputed in detail for each item, but a defense logic must be established in that criminal liability is not immediately established simply through simple violation of contract or change of use after the fact. In the end, depending on what and how this issue is explained, it could be the difference between whether it ends up as a tax risk, whether it escalates into financial sanctions, or whether it leads to criminal liability. Getting the initial response axis right actually determines the outcome. Eunhye Lee (zhses3@joseilbo.com)[View full article] "Blocking the source of misappropriation of business loans"... "Financial, tax, and criminal 'triple risks'" in joint comprehensive investigation (link) 2026-05-14T04:10:31.515Z https://www.daeryunlaw.com/en/broadcast/6238 ‘Namu Wiki’, which is displayed at the top of online searches, is currently recording traffic that overwhelms that of large media companies and is having a significant impact on the formation of public opinion. However, behind the collective intelligence that anyone can edit, there is a fatal side effect of the indiscriminate distribution of unverified false information and malicious rumors. Unlike established media that go through strict fact checks, the structure without a minimum fact-checking process or even an editor in charge has become a hotbed of serious legal disputes. The biggest problem is evasion of the law through fragmentation of responsibility. Even if defamation or business damage occurs due to false information, it is not easy to realistically hold someone responsible. This is because it is difficult to identify malicious editors due to the nature of wikis where many people edit documents. The absence of identity verification and bypass access using a virtual private network (VPN) dramatically increase the difficulty of the investigation and ultimately lead to the ‘evaporation of responsibility phenomenon’, which causes victims to give up filing complaints. Holding the platform accountable also has clear limitations. According to Article 44-2 of the Information and Communications Network Act, when information that infringes on the rights of others is distributed, the information and communications service provider has the obligation to delete the information or take temporary measures at the request of the victim. Accordingly, Namuwiki is also taking temporary measures (temporary deletion of documents) against rights-infringing information. However, the 'transparency report', which discloses the information and reasons for victims' requests for relief, is causing further harm. This is because it triggers the ‘Streisand effect’, which amplifies controversy by stimulating the public’s curiosity, and encourages secondary harm. Deleted documents can also be rewritten after 30 days, so victims fall into the cycle of infinite deletion requests. Furthermore, the Supreme Court has ruled that if an information and communication service provider makes a profit by neglecting defamatory posts, it can be held liable for joint tort by aiding and abetting (see Supreme Court decision 2008 Da53812, etc.). Namu Wiki, headquartered in Paraguay, generates enormous domestic advertising revenue while hiding behind its own ineffective regulations and allowing the re-distribution of illegal information, which misrepresents the purpose of precedent. Even in this seemingly solid legal blind spot, there is a breakthrough to regain damaged rights. This is because some large law firms, including Daeryun Law Firm, where I belong, are providing services to track hidden perpetrators by simultaneously utilizing the legal systems of Korea and the United States. Specifically, it utilizes the U.S. court's discovery (evidence discovery) system to identify identity information of bypass users who accessed via overseas servers. Through this close cooperation between Korean and American lawyers, it becomes possible to take a practical response by holding users hiding behind anonymity directly civil and criminally responsible. Of course, structural problems cannot be justified just because an individual response is possible. Legislative and regulatory authorities must establish legal jurisdiction by strictly applying the domestic agent designation system to large platforms that avoid the law because they are overseas corporations. Furthermore, there is an urgent need to establish an institutional system that can impose effective sanctions in cases where platform management obligations under the Information and Communications Network Act are intentionally neglected. The rights and profits enjoyed by the platform must be accompanied by corresponding responsibilities. ● Contributions by external writers may differ from the editorial direction of this magazine.

In the wake of the controversy over famous YouTuber ‘Kwak Tube’ sponsoring a postpartum care center for the spouse of a public official, interest is focused on how the standards for receiving money and valuables differ between public officials and their spouses. Even if the sponsorship is the same, the standards for applying the law may vary depending on whether the public official receives it or his or her spouse receives it. Recently, Kwak Tube was at the center of controversy after it became known that it had received room upgrades and some services from a postpartum care center after the birth of a spouse's child. Kwak Tube said, “We confirmed through legal advice that it was a private contract unrelated to the spouse’s job,” but paid the difference in sponsorship as controversy arose. According to Article 8, Paragraph 1 of the Act on the Prohibition of Improper Solicitations and Receiving Money, etc. (Anti-Corruption Act), if a public official is assessed to have received money or valuables, regardless of job-relatedness, the contract exceeds 1 million won per time (3 million won per year). In principle, receiving, requesting, or promising money or valuables is prohibited. For this reason, it is pointed out that in this case, the legal judgment may be divided solely by the explanation that it is ‘not related to the job.’ This is because, regardless of the form of sponsorship, the amount standard can be applied if it is assessed that the actual benefit was enjoyed by the public official. The Anti-Corruption and Civil Rights Commission is said to have received a related complaint on April 10 and is reviewing the possibility of applying the law. On the other hand, when the spouse of a public official receives money or valuables, the standards for application are different. Money received by a spouse is a violation only if it is related to the public official's duties. Article 8, Paragraph 4 of the Anti-Graft Act stipulates that “the spouse of a public official, etc. is prohibited from receiving money or valuables in connection with the duties of a public official, etc.” Dae-soo Kim, general counsel at Daeryun Law Firm, explained, “If a spouse receives money or valuables, there is a possibility of violating the Anti-Graft Act only if it is related to the public official’s duties,” and explained, “The application of the law does not change depending on whether the spouse is an influencer or a member of the public.” Reporter Kim Jeong-ah ja.kim@ilyo.co.kr[View full article] The anti-graft law in light of the Kwak Tube controversy...

Suspicion of manslaughter due to occupational negligence Amid suspicions of poor response by rescuers surrounding the capsize of a fishing boat that occurred at Naksan Port in Yangyang-gun, Gangwon-do last month, the police began an investigation. According to the legal community on the 15th, the Sokcho Police Station received a complaint filed by the bereaved family of Captain A, who died in the accident, against six people, including the paramedic and rescue worker who were dispatched at the time. The charge applied is manslaughter due to occupational negligence. The bereaved family claimed that the death occurred because the crew members arrived at the scene and recognized Mr. A in danger, but did not even make minimal rescue efforts, such as throwing life-saving equipment. According to the bereaved family, immediately after the accident, Mr. A swam to the vicinity of the breakwater wearing a life jacket and loudly requested rescue. However, the crews who arrived at the scene did not immediately carry out rescue activities such as throwing lifelines. Mr. A, who was struggling after being pushed by the waves again, was rescued about 20 minutes after the accident, but eventually died. The bereaved family pointed out, "If you look at the video filmed at the time, even when Mr. A's spouse, who was elderly, tried to rescue her husband by directly jumping into the sea water, the crew members just watched the scene calmly on the breakwater for at least a minute." Seo Bong-ha, an attorney at Daeryun Law Firm representing Mr. A's bereaved family, said, "At the time, three crew members were holding a life-saving ring. “The victim was still conscious, waving his hands while carrying him to the end of the breakwater and returning,” he said. “Even after the crew returned, acquaintances at the scene tried to rescue the victim. If active rescue activities, such as throwing life rings, had been carried out even at this time, the situation would have been different,” said Attorney Seo. He emphasized, “There is an urgent need to secure objective data through search and seizure.” Reporter Hwang Jeong-won (garden@sidae.com)[View full article] Donghaeng Media Era - Suspicion of 'poor rescue' in Naksan Port fishing boat capsize accident...

According to the legal community on the 15th, the Tongyeong Branch of the Changwon District Prosecutors' Office decided not to indict Mr. A, who was transferred on charges of fraud and violation of the Special Act on Prevention of Insurance Fraud on the 19th of last month. Mr. A received insurance money by repeatedly being falsely hospitalized for diseases such as lumbar spine and intervertebral disc disorders for about 10 years since 2008. He was accused of receiving it. The police believed that Mr. A had swindled more than 60 million won in insurance money and handed the case over to the prosecution. Mr. A completely denied the charges. He claimed that he only received long-term hospital treatment and hospitalization for an actual illness, and that there was no false hospitalization for the purpose of receiving insurance money. The prosecution found it difficult to acknowledge Mr. A's intentionality. In the case of insurance money received from 2008 to 2015, the statute of limitations has expired, and the insurance money of about 14 million won received in 2019 was also judged not to have been misappropriated by fraudulent doctors. Meanwhile, the prosecution ruled that the need for hospitalization treatment may vary depending on the patient's condition and the doctor's judgment, that actual treatment such as examination and surgery was performed during some hospitalizations, and that there are mixed evaluations of the appropriateness of medical treatment. It was cited as the basis for the disposition. In addition, taking into account the fact that Mr. A had maintained the insurance contract normally for a long period of time and the level of insurance premiums was also difficult to consider excessive, it was judged that it was difficult to conclude that there was a purpose for defrauding. Attorney Cho Ik-cheon of the Daeryun Law Firm, who represented Mr. A, said, "We focused on the fact that there was a need for actual treatment by comparing the medical records and treatment progress." “We have proven that there was no intention through legal principles that are difficult to determine,” he said.

According to the Cheongju District Prosecutors' Office on the 14th, a man in his 20s, Mr. A, who was handed over to the prosecution on charges of violating the Child Welfare Act (child abuse) on March 23, was not charged. The decision was made. While giving skating lessons at an ice rink in November 2025, Mr. A was accused of abusing children by pulling on the clothes of student B and pushing him by grabbing his legs. In response, Mr. A completely denied the charges, saying that B had continued to disobey instructions and played around, and that he had only grabbed the hem of B's clothes to prevent him from starting ahead of other children on the ice. The prosecution said, "The victim is wearing safety gear. He stated the reason for non-indictment, saying, "Considering that there were no significant injuries and that the relationship was amicable to the extent that the victim played a prank on the suspect right before the incident, it is difficult to admit that there was intent to abuse the child." In addition, the prosecution noted that the act occurred while the suspect was tutoring several children alone and said, "Asking responsibility solely for actions or results that occurred during the tutoring process without specific acts of harm makes the suspect, who is responsible for both safety and guidance, passive, which could easily result in neglect. “It can be done,” he added. Mr. A’s legal representative, lawyer Nam Sang-gwan of Daeryun Law Firm, said, “We focused on the dangerous environmental characteristics of the ice surface and the duty to prevent safety accidents assigned to instructors.” He added, “We were able to achieve a good result by legally demonstrating that the suspect’s actions were not physical and emotional abuse prohibited by the Child Welfare Act, but an inevitable and justified educational guidance action to protect the safety of the instructors.” Intern reporter Yujin Lim iyj721@kyeonggi.com[View full article] Skating instructor accused of child abuse, prosecutors acquitted... “Legitimate Safety Guidance” (Shortcut) 2026-05-13T08:01:47.598Z https://www.daeryunlaw.com/en/broadcast/6233 Daeryun Law Firm announced on the 14th that it has signed a business agreement (MOU) with the Ulsan Metropolitan City Taxi Transport Business Association to strengthen legal support for the transportation industry and decided to join forces to expand cooperation.

Mr. B requested a formal trial, and the issue arose when Mr. A appeared as a witness at this trial. Mr. A testified to the effect that there had been assault on both sides between the two, and when the court found Mr. B not guilty, Mr. B accused Mr. A of perjury by conspiracy. Mr. A denied the charges, saying he made a statement from memory and did not make up anything false. Mr. A claimed that a physical collision actually occurred on the day of the argument with Mr. B, and that he was also diagnosed with an injury. As a result of reviewing the CCTV footage, the prosecution confirmed that A and B fell together or used physical force, and determined that there were circumstances that made it difficult to conclude that it was one-sided violence. In addition, in that perjury should be judged based on the entire purpose and context, not just some expressions of the statement, the statement made by Mr. A in court five months after the incident based on memory was considered false testimony. It was difficult to determine, so it was decided not to charge. Attorney Lee Seong-cheol of Daeryun Law Firm, who represented Mr. A, said, “The key to the crime of perjury is whether the witness made a false statement while recognizing that it was against his or her memory,” and added, “Even if there are some errors or contradictions in the statement, that alone does not constitute a crime of perjury.” He continued, “As a result of reconstructing the entire flow of the statement based on the video data and the physical circumstances of both parties at the time, we argued that it is difficult to acknowledge the intentionality of perjury. “I was able to receive a not guilty verdict,” he said.

According to the National Police Agency's statistics, last year's drunk driving recidivism rate reached 43.65%, and the chain of recidivism is not easily broken, with the number of repeat offenders caught more than six times in particular increasing significantly. In order to eradicate such crimes, the Supreme Prosecutors' Office and the National Police Agency established a 'joint prosecution and police joint drunk driving eradication measure' from July 2023 and introduced measures to confiscate and confiscate vehicles of habitual drivers. A total of 1,173 vehicles were confiscated across the country last year under this system. In particular, investigative agencies have been increasing the level of pressure on habitual drunk drivers by further expanding the confiscation criteria since the end of last year. Previously, vehicle confiscation was limited to cases where an accident resulted in death or serious injury, but the scope has now been expanded to include cases where a person is on trial for drunk driving or commits a repeat offense while on probation. Additionally, if a person with a history of drunk driving within 5 years is caught again while drunk with a blood alcohol concentration of 0.2% or more, he or she will be subject to this. This year, as these strict standards are applied across all fronts, vehicle confiscation cases are expected to rise even more rapidly. If you are at risk of vehicle confiscation due to being caught drunk driving, you must take thorough legal action to preserve the vehicle, which is a key household asset. For a successful defense, a legal approach using objective data from the early stages is essential. According to Article 48 of the Criminal Act, the confiscation of vehicles for drunk driving is not a mandatory obligation but rather an ‘arbitrary confiscation’ at the discretion of the court. Therefore, the key to defense is to explain that the vehicle in question is the family's only means of livelihood or that the confiscation is overly harsh considering the value of the vehicle. Furthermore, in order to avoid a sentence of vehicle confiscation, a persuasive argument is needed to 'block the possibility of recidivism'. It is necessary to go beyond simply a written reflection requesting leniency, and to have voluntary efforts recognized by the court through alcohol dependence treatment history or public transportation usage records. In particular, in cases of accidents involving human or material damage, whether or not there is an agreement to recover damages can be an important factor in not only sentencing but also in defending against vehicle confiscation. This is because reaching an amicable agreement with the victim and securing a 'non-punishment application' is the most important sentencing element that shows that the defendant has fulfilled his responsibility for his crime. At this time, there is a high risk that if the defendant directly enters into an agreement, it will be misunderstood as a ‘secondary offense’ and the agreement will be broken, so it is safer to go through objective mediation through a legal representative. Relieving the weight of the case through rapid damage recovery is the only practical justification for preventing punitive vehicle confiscation. A drunk driving criminal trial and vehicle confiscation defense are important legal procedures that require faithful submission and explanation of materials to support the facts and normal relationship. An emotional appeal of injustice alone cannot persuade investigative agencies and the court. Collecting evidence based on facts and responding in accordance with legal procedures based on consistent legal principles is the only sure way to protect precious property and daily life amidst massive institutional changes.[View full article] Strengthened standards for vehicle confiscation for drunk driving... What is the defense strategy to protect key assets? (Shortcut) 2026-05-14T05:53:38.908Z https://www.daeryunlaw.com/en/broadcast/6230 In January, the Ministry of Employment and Labor announced legislation for the 'Work Package' to comprehensively protect freelancers and platform workers starting this year's Labor Day (May 1), and the risk of corporate labor management is reaching its peak. This is because we have entered a legal inflection point where the responsibility to prove employee status, which was previously borne entirely by labor providers, is now transformed into the company's 'responsibility to disprove', with the purpose of concretizing the 'right to work' stipulated in Article 32 of the Constitution of the Republic of Korea. The core of this amendment is the establishment of Article 104-2 (Presumption of Worker) Paragraph 1 of the Labor Standards Act. This provision defines a person who directly provides labor for another person's business as a labor provider, and specifies that in the event of a dispute, they are presumed to be 'workers'. In the current legal system, labor providers claiming rights had to prove their status as employees according to the general legal principle of burden of proof. However, in the future, if employers fail to completely disprove the independent business status of the relevant personnel, they will be subject to all responsibilities under the Labor Standards Act, including the obligation to pay wages and severance pay. This 'power of presumption' is not only used for dispute mediation by the Labor Relations Commission, which has the effect of reconciliation under civil law, but also for all civil disputes, such as claims for wages and severance pay, and lawsuits confirming invalidity of disciplinary action and dismissal. It has a ripple effect. A point of particular note is the labor inspector's strong investigative authority stipulated in Paragraph 2 of Article 104-2 of the amendment. Employers cannot refuse a request to submit data without a justifiable reason, and if they violate this, they are expected to face all-out pressure, including administrative sanctions, such as a fine of up to 5 million won pursuant to Article 116 of the same Act. The top priority that companies must immediately implement in response to these risks is a complete disconnection of the business command and supervision system. This is because the most important criterion that the Supreme Court considers when determining employee status is ‘substantial command and supervision.’ In practice, freelancers and partner company personnel must be thoroughly separated in company messengers or group chat rooms, and the practice of enforcing commuting times or work locations must be immediately abolished. Furthermore, it is essential to completely remodel the communication method in the form of consultation on contract results rather than work instructions to completely block any room for dependency. In addition, in order for a company to fulfill its responsibility to disprove in court, it must preemptively prepare objective signs to prove that the other party is an 'independent business operator.' A representative defense method is to explicitly allow 'substitutability' in the contract, which allows the principal to hire a third party to perform the work instead of performing the work himself. In addition, specific data to prove actual business status must be accumulated at all times, such as stipulating that major equipment, tools, vehicles, etc. required for work be used as personal assets rather than company assets and leaving proof of this. Under the worker presumption system, 'companies that cannot prove' cannot avoid legal defeat, which can lead to enormous management losses and a decline in corporate reputation. Now, labor management has gone beyond simple personnel administration and has become a high-level compliance area that requires legal redesign of the entire labor management process to meet the strengthened burden of proof. Establishing a preemptive and detailed legal safety device will be the only way to preemptively protect against unsettled labor risks and ensure the survival of the company.

Real estate and economic case experts are deployed to provide one-stop support from multi-faceted legal assistance from lease registration to performance claims and criminal charges… “We are striving to minimize damage to tenants.” Amid growing anxiety among tenants due to a large-scale rental deposit-related problem in a large apartment building in the Chungju area, Daeryun Law Firm announced on the 9th that it has launched a response task force (TF) to relieve damage to tenants. The place where the problem occurred was an apartment with about 2,000 households located in Judeok-eup, Chungju, and Company A, a rental business operator, recently extended the Housing and Urban Guarantee Corporation (HUG) guarantee insurance. As corporate rehabilitation procedures are entered without implementation, the crisis of non-return of large-scale deposits is increasing. Accordingly, Daeryun recognized the seriousness of the situation and formed a customized task force by combining veteran experts with abundant experience. The leader of the TF was Cho Young-sam, a lawyer who served as a judge at Changwon District Court and Chuncheon District Court and had extensive experience in various civil and criminal trials for a long time. Attorney Cho is an expert in major real estate and civil litigation, including leading the Supreme Court's first precedent that a landowner can claim royalties even if the right to use a grave is recognized, and will lead the overall litigation strategy of this task force. Attorney Gyu-seok Park, who has handled many complex economic crime cases such as investment and development-related fraud, also joined. Attorney Park, who has experience as an advisory attorney for an asset management company and a real estate development company, plans to focus on closely digging into the issues related to landlords' deceptive practices. In addition, attorney Dae-won Kim, who successfully obtained the return of the deposit by representing tenants in the 'Danueu incident in Hakjae Village, Yesan-gun' related to HUG rental deposit guarantees in the past, and attorney Jae-sik Kang, a real estate expert with extensive court and registration practice, were also named to the task force. Daeryun said through this TF. We plan to provide one-stop legal services from initial fact finding, application for lease registration order, HUG deposit performance request agency, customized legal advice at each stage of the process, as well as transition to additional litigation, such as filing a criminal complaint for lease fraud when a dispute arises. The plan is to overcome the limitations of individual responses in line with the characteristics of large complexes where group action is essential and to take a multifaceted response that simultaneously pressures landlords and HUGs. Daeryun Cho Young-sam, an attorney at Daeryun, said, “If the financial condition of the rental business operator had already deteriorated to the extent that corporate rehabilitation was expected at the time of signing the first lease agreement, this could be evaluated as an act of deception not only for the tenant but also for the HUG.” He added, “As we have a lot of experience in consulting and conducting lawsuits related to performance claims, apartment tenants who are concerned about large-scale damage can actually take action. “We will focus all our capabilities at the corporate level to ensure that the deposit is returned,” he said. jckim99@sportsseoul.comReporter Kim Jong-cheol[View full article] Daeryun Law Firm launches a task force to respond to the non-return of deposits for large-scale apartment complexes in the Chungju area (link) 2026-05-14T06:10:19.299Z https://www.daeryunlaw.com/en/broadcast/6226 Daeryun Law Firm announced on the 9th that it has continued its rapid double-digit growth in 2024 and last year, solidifying its position as the '9th largest law firm in Korea' in terms of sales for two consecutive years. Last year, Daeryun's sales based on value-added tax returns were calculated to be 130 billion won. This is a 15.4% increase compared to the previous year, which was about 112.6 billion won. Among the top major law firms in sales announced earlier this year, this is the second highest growth rate after Shin Sejong (18.0%). Daeryun's sales per lawyer are approximately 540 million won. This ranks 8th in the country. The background for growth is said to be 'overwhelming infrastructure' and 'responsible litigation system'. Previously, Daeryun significantly strengthened its cross-border legal advisory capabilities by establishing a local corporation, SJKP, in New York, USA last year. After its opening, a class action lawsuit was filed against Coupang's U.S. headquarters. Daeryun also structured a litigation system that requires an experienced manager-level attorney to oversee all aspects of the practice, including customer communication, strategy establishment, and trial attendance. The purpose is to resolve the problem of service imbalance that can occur when senior lawyers are excluded from practice or individual lawyers with less experience are in charge of cases. Daeryun is known to have handled more than 15,000 cases last year. Kim Kuk-il, CEO of Daeryun Management, said, "What is more important than the external figure of sales is the practical data accumulated through directly solving numerous cases and the resulting customer trust. A virtuous cycle has been established in which the majority of clients who have actually experienced Daeryun are satisfied with the service and request new cases or actively introduce them to those around them." “We will focus on the essence of a law firm that protects rights and interests as the top priority,” he emphasized.

The two companies plan to form a 'global complex crisis response task force' that includes the risk of war with Iran, and provide practical services that go beyond simple advice to actual dispute resolution and execution. In order to respond to this incident, Daeryun brought to the forefront American lawyers with brilliant experience. Led by Son Dong-hoo, an American lawyer with more than 10 years of litigation experience, Won Won-yeon, an American lawyer who has performed large-scale international commercial arbitration and ISDS (investor-state dispute resolution) at large domestic law firms such as Kim & Chang, Kwangjang, and Sejong, joined the team. In addition, attorney James Meaney with 20 years of practical experience, attorney Bryce Robbins, an expert in criminal risk and trade regulations, and attorney Dominica Peko, who is a former assistant prosecutor at the Brooklyn District Prosecutors' Office and is well versed in marine insurance disputes, joined the team. Add strength. SJKP, a collaborating law firm, has unrivaled practical capabilities in cross-border (cross-border transaction) disputes, force majeure clause interpretation, and maritime transportation, so synergy between the two companies is expected. Daeryun and SJKP analyzed that the needs of companies have recently been focused on 'maintaining existing businesses' and 'risk management' rather than new investments. As high oil prices and supply chain instability prolong, issues directly related to survival, such as corporate restructuring, workforce reduction, and bankruptcy, are frequently occurring. What is particularly noteworthy is that the demand for ‘compulsory execution’ procedures, such as seizure or lien execution to recover debt, is rapidly increasing. The two companies not only review the application of force majeure in cases of non-compliance with contracts due to geopolitical variables, but also deal with sanctions (IEEPA) and export control issues. The core strategy of this task force is to not only stop at simple legal interpretation, but to respond comprehensively to overseas asset tracking and actual execution. It also provides precise guidance on maritime transportation disruptions and insurance disputes that will be brought about by tensions in the Strait of Hormuz. As the battle over who is responsible for transportation delays and cargo losses is expected to intensify, we plan to provide international dispute resolution solutions that go beyond the laws of a single country. A Daeryun official said, "In a global economic crisis, there are increasing cases where conflicts of interest between companies lead to hostile takeovers or M&A disputes. Based on our experience in integrated response encompassing not only arbitration and litigation, but also asset execution, we are developing a strategy focused on solving real problems to help companies overcome the waves of uncertainty. “I will present it,” he said.[View full article] [Uncertainty risks from the Middle East] Daeryun-SJKP ‘Global TF’ in operation… Focus on localized risk management (click here) 2026-05-13T22:16:38.677Z https://www.daeryunlaw.com/en/broadcast/6224 The legal debate that shakes the foundation of the 14th Amendment to the U.S. Constitution, so-called “territorial citizenship,” has once again been put to the test by the U.S. Supreme Court. Currently, a fierce legal battle over the scope of recognition of children's citizenship continues in the Supreme Court. The long-standing principle of granting citizenship to those born in the United States, regardless of their parents' residency status, is being shaken completely. Depending on the results of the final ruling, which is expected to take place between June and July, the legal status of Korean immigrant families and the entire family's residence plan could be changed in an instant. The key issue in this trial is the scope of interpretation of the 'subject to the jurisdiction thereof' stipulated in the citizenship clause of the 14th Amendment to the Constitution. Until now, citizenship has been consistently granted to those born within U.S. territory, but there is now a clear movement to limit the scope to only cases where at least one parent is a U.S. citizen or permanent resident. Until now, before the legal principle is overturned by a new ruling, the existing principle of territoriality remains in effect. However, if the Supreme Court narrows the scope of its jurisdiction, the situation is reversed. The essential crisis of this situation is that the acquisition of citizenship for children of temporary residents such as international students and expatriates may be effectively blocked after this summer. The biggest threat posed by changes in legal interpretation is that the child's citizenship is dependent on the parent's residency status. So far, a child's citizenship has gone beyond a simple matter of nationality and has served as a 'legal shield' that allows a family to remain in the United States. If the child does not have independent residency rights called citizenship when the parent's visa expires, the entire family's education and residence base is bound to collapse. Therefore, we are now at a point where not only the child's documents but also the possibility of the parents' visa extension must be viewed as a single family-level risk and managed in an integrated manner. The first step in risk management is 'data archiving'. You must systematically prepare hospital records and medical treatment details at the time of the child's birth, as well as data proving that the parents have legally stayed in the United States and engaged in economic activities. This is because it serves as legal evidence to protect the child's status in the event of retroactive application of citizenship or disputes over eligibility in the future. In addition, if the visa you currently hold is limited to 'temporary stay', a strategy is needed to minimize the possibility of 'jurisdiction' controversy, such as checking with an expert on the possibility of switching to a visa that can secure a more stable stay status. In addition, in case securing US citizenship becomes uncertain, the Korean birth registration and nationality maintenance procedures should be carried out in parallel, but the timing should be carefully adjusted so that this process does not conflict with the 'intent to reside' under US immigration law. If you approach the U.S. process and Korea's family relationship registration report separately, there is a possibility that you will be placed in a long-term disadvantageous legal position as the nationality and residency status judgments overlap or conflict. This complex legal thread between the two countries can never be resolved with the legal knowledge of either country alone. This is because we need to precisely predict and respond to the butterfly effect that changes in U.S. immigration law will have on Korea's family law and military service law. In the end, a practical solution to this issue must be found in the 'cross-border' response capability that designs the optimal movement route by taking an integrated view of the laws of both countries. Only a systematic system in which domestic expertise and the working network of local law firms work together as a one-team in real time and simultaneously coordinate the procedures of both countries through a single window can be an effective safety net for Korean immigrants facing huge institutional changes. There are only about two months left until the Supreme Court ruling. From the moment a child is born, the legal clock already starts ticking. Rather than waiting for a ruling, proactively examining possible risks and establishing a response plan is the only sure way to protect your child's future and your family's daily life.● Contributions by external writers may differ from the editorial direction of this magazine.

Attorney Park was appointed as a prosecutor in 2005 and entered the legal profession. I took a step. Since then, he has gained a deep understanding of investigative logic by experiencing the entire criminal process at the Busan District Prosecutors' Office, the Geochang Branch of the Changwon District Prosecutors' Office, and the Special Department of the Ansan Branch of the Suwon District Prosecutors' Office. Attorney Park Seong-jun, who was appointed as a judge in 2010, has tried various cases while serving as a judge at the Daegu District Court and the Busan High Court. In particular, he is evaluated for his ability to accurately understand complex issues by taking on major cases that have attracted social attention, such as the appeal trial of the Dong-A Pharmaceutical executive rebate case and the appeal trial of the Hyowon Cultural Center contract invalidation case between Pusan National University and E-Land Retail. He has also been in charge of a case claiming damages against the state related to the death of a captain that occurred during a crackdown on illegal fishing. In addition, Attorney Seong-Jun Park is a legal expert who is qualified as a certified public accountant. He is recognized for his expertise while serving as a member of the Busan Regional Tax Office's tax violation investigation deliberation committee. Attorney Park Seong-joon said that he is competitive in responding to corporate-related cases and financial and tax issues by adding accounting expertise to his investigation and trial experience. “Based on the wealth of experience I have accumulated as a judge and prosecutor, I will present an optimal strategy that accurately penetrates the core of the case,” he said. “We will prioritize protecting the rights and interests of clients and provide legal services with practical results.” Kim Kuk-il, CEO of Daeryun Law Firm, said, “Attorney Park’s joining requires a complex legal review.” “It will be an opportunity to raise Daeryun’s service level in the areas of corporate advisory and large-scale litigation,” he said. “We will provide more sophisticated legal services based on our expertise in both trials and investigations.” Reporter Son Jeong-heon, Lawleader twson@lawleader.co.kr Law Leader - Daeryun Law Firm recruits former Chief Judge Park Seong-jun (Click here) Empathy Newspaper - Daeryun Law Firm Recruits Attorney Park Seong-jun, a former Chief Judge (Click here) 2026-05-12T13:02:39.882Z https://www.daeryunlaw.com/en/broadcast/6222 A soldier in his 20s was put on trial on charges of swearing at a specific superior in his unit, but was found not guilty by the court because it was recognized that the remarks did not refer to a specific person and did not have a performance nature. According to the legal community on the 7th, the 3rd Regional Military Court acquitted Mr. A, in his 20s, who was indicted on charges of insulting his superior last month. Mr. A was indicted on charges of making insulting remarks against a specific superior in a situation where his remarks could be heard by people around him within the unit. However, Mr. A denied the charge, saying he had never made the problematic remarks. In addition, it was argued that even if the remark had been made, it was difficult to identify the other party as it was more like a dissatisfied self-talk. The court found him not guilty based on the statement of another unit member, Mr. B, who was at the scene at the time, saying, “I heard the remark itself, but I did not know who it was directed at.” In order for an insult to be established, the victim must be identified and the expression must be likely to be spread, but according to Mr. B's statement, Mr. A's remarks do not meet these requirements. Attorney Seo In-ho of the Daeryun Law Firm, who represented Mr. A, said, "In this case, the key point was whether the remarks met the requirements for criminal punishment rather than whether Mr. A made the problematic remarks. As a result of the dispute focusing on whether a specific target was identified and whether the expression had the potential to be spread externally, a not guilty verdict was reached."

However, despite the possibility of tariff refunds, domestic export companies are often unable to take practical responses due to complicated procedures and the burden of hiring local experts. In particular, while the U.S. Customs and Border Protection (CBP) is expected to operate the refund system (CAPE) around the 20th of this month, The industry's response goes beyond simple refund applications and extends to objections and lawsuits. Myung Jae-ho, a customs expert at Daeryun Law Firm, explained, "If we check in advance key elements such as identifying the refund entity, managing the settlement point, and designing the refund receipt structure, we can sufficiently increase the possibility of a refund." He also added, "We can respond more efficiently by using a domestic law firm that directly cooperates with a local U.S. law firm without an intermediary law firm." He selected 'confirmation of the claimant' as the factor that needs to be checked first. He explained, "About 6,000 companies, or 25% of the approximately 24,000 companies exporting to the United States, are transacting under DDP conditions in which the exporter bears the cost of customs duties, so there is a possibility that they may be eligible for a refund." He added, "We need to check 'who can claim it' before whether a refund is possible," he explained. Tariffs are paid by the importer of the United States (IOR) in customs clearance. Commissioner Myeong explained that there are many cases where it is written down, and in reality, there are many structures that make it difficult for Korean companies to claim refunds directly. In particular, in DDP transactions, cost burden and legal rights are often separated, so he emphasized that it is necessary to first review how the tariff burden and refund rights are established in the contract. He then explained that it is important to manage the schedule before and after 'tariff settlement (Liquidation)' when proceeding with the refund process. Before tariff settlement (Liquidation) Although corrections can be made relatively easily through a post-summary correction (PSC), it becomes difficult to respond if the protest procedure goes through after settlement. Commissioner Myeong reiterated that 'timing management' is most important because it usually takes about 314 days to settle, and objections must be raised within 180 days. Applying for a refund does not mean 'automatic payment'. The U.S. Customs and Border Protection (CBP) presents each procedure based on the taxpayer's application rather than a lump sum automatic refund, and CBP is only an agency that executes refunds and does not have the authority to judge whether customs duties are illegal. Commissioner Myeong added, "For this reason, only part of the refund may be granted or rejected, and in the event of such a dispute, it is likely to lead to a lawsuit in the U.S. Court of International Trade (CIT)." These include securing an import declaration (entry), confirming the schedule for calculating and settling customs duties, and registering an account to receive a refund. Commissioner Myeong said, “Recently, CBP is considering paying refunds only through electronic transfer (ACH),” and added, “If you do not have a US account, a bypass receipt structure through a third-party agent must be prepared in advance.” Furthermore, the customs structure itself is recently changing to the form of ‘basic tariff + additional tariff.’ He also pointed out that companies should keep this in mind. He said, "In the past, a certain level of tariff was applied regardless of whether FTA was applied, but now, with the shift to the 'basic tariff + additional tariff (10%)' structure, the actual burden varies depending on whether or not the FTA is utilized." He added, "Proof of origin is also an important variable. Even if it is domestically produced, if key raw materials are imported, it may be difficult to recognize the origin." Separately, it is important to note that Article 232 of the Trade Expansion Act and Article 301 of the Trade Act, Tariffs, Dumping, and Countervailing Duties (AD/CVD) remain in place. He said, “There is a possibility of introducing additional tariffs based on Section 122 in the future, so there is a need to reorganize the mid- to long-term tariff strategy separately from whether or not to refund.” Lastly, Commissioner Myeong said, “Tariff refund is not a simple cost issue, but a complex area where contract structure, customs clearance method, and dispute response are all connected.” He added, “In practice, there is a possibility that CBP will increase the intensity of response by requesting submission of additional data through information request (Form 28) or delaying refund review. He pointed out, “For companies that are not prepared, the refund process may be prolonged or lead to unfavorable results,” and “It is important to approach strategically in the early stages, as the results vary greatly depending on preparation.” He also added, “Tariff refund lawsuits must be filed within two years, and in this case, around April 2027 is expected to be the final deadline, so now is the best time to prepare a response, as the rights may not be exercised if preparations are delayed. “It’s a point in time,” he added.

According to the results of a fact-finding survey by the Korea Federation of Small and Medium Businesses, 9 out of 10 exporting small and medium-sized enterprises are virtually giving up on rights relief even when overseas IP disputes arise due to the pressure of excessive litigation costs. In addition, the majority of small and medium-sized companies found it difficult to operate a large in-house legal team like large corporations, so the probability of being exposed to legal disputes when expanding overseas was found to be relatively high. In order to respond to these risks, Daeryun Corporate Legal Center announced on the 6th that it had subdivided the cross-border advisory area in earnest. The main areas of support are △ review and writing of international transaction agreements (NDA, license agreements, etc.) △ inspection of regulatory risks related to the establishment of overseas local corporations △ local labor law and tax advice. △Protection of core technologies and trademark rights, etc. The policy is to reduce unnecessary friction that companies may experience by checking complex overseas legal requirements in advance. In particular, the response process for 'non-payment to customers' and 'unauthorized use of trademark rights', which occur most frequently in the overseas business process, has also been systemized. Daeryun supports recovery of funds using local provisional seizure procedures and international arbitration provisions for non-payment of export payments that occur in Southeast Asia and other countries. In addition, we are providing immediate legal response measures, such as prompt invalidation judgments and applications for injunctions prohibiting infringement, to local brokers' malicious trademark preemption actions. Daeryun Law Firm's CEO Kim Kuk-il said, "For successful overseas expansion, not only the competitiveness of the product but also thorough risk management based on local laws must be supported." He added, "By taking full advantage of the accessibility of large law firms with a nationwide branch network, we provide legal support so that small and medium-sized businesses in the metropolitan area as well as local regions can conduct business stably on the global stage." “We will spare no effort in providing assistance,” he said.

Employees take it without permission because they will throw it out anyway, and in extreme cases, lawsuits break out. Reporter Byeong-soo Ahn checked the facts to see if there were actually any legal problems. 【 Reporter 】A case in a cafe in Cheongju where the owner sued an employee for taking a drink that was scheduled to be discarded. Public opinion is too strong. As the store owner belatedly withdrew the complaint, the store owner belatedly withdrew the complaint. We questioned whether employees should not freely take 'food that would otherwise be thrown away', such as leftover coffee or expired kimbap. When asked about the controversial Baek Cafe, they declined to comment, saying, "We are looking at the matter seriously." So, we looked into how other franchise cafes respond to similar situations, and the conclusion is that it is a problem. If there is food scheduled to be discarded, 'Immediate disposal' is the rule, so employees are strictly prohibited from eating or taking it away, and breaking this is a violation of the internal rules. ▶ Interview: Franchise cafe public relations manager - "In a broad sense, it's all company items. You can't use it arbitrarily, and you have to get the company's permission..." However, there were no cases of self-discipline or legal action, because it was "too inhumane to employees." Although no trial has actually been held for this reason, there is a possibility of being punished for business embezzlement if it goes to court. This is the diagnosis of the legal profession. This is because if there was no prior consent to take food that was not sold, 'illegal acquisition' can be recognized. If the employee has a practice of disposing of food scheduled for disposal or immediately repays the amount of damage, it may be taken into account, but if it is habitual or the amount taken is excessive, it may be disadvantageous. ▶ Interview: Youngjin Ahn / Attorney at Daeryun Law Firm - "If it goes to the trial stage, of course, an unfavorable result is expected for the defendant. The court may make a decision to postpone the sentencing by comprehensively considering these factors, such as the fact that the person is new to society... "The statement that there is no problem in taking it if you are going to throw it away is 'generally false'. However, the reality of having to worry about even a single leftover food is unfortunate.

The agreement ceremony was attended by officials from both sides, including CEO Park Dong-il of Daeryun and Oh Seong-ho, president of the Korean-Chinese Community Association. Starting with this agreement, both sides plan to establish a counseling system for foreigners residing in Korea who cannot receive legal help due to language barriers or institutional unfamiliarity. In particular, the scope of support has expanded beyond simple immigration and visa issues to include contract disputes, investment advice, labor-related issues, and civil and criminal cases that may arise during business management. The Korean-Chinese Korean Association is an organization established in 2015 that operates community-based projects and community volunteer activities for Korean Chinese and foreigners residing in Korea. The association expects that this cooperation with Daeryun will be able to raise the level of legal welfare within the community to a higher level. Oh Seong-ho, president of the Korean-Chinese Association, said, "There are many legal problems experienced by Chinese people staying in Korea," and "I believe that a more systematic legal response will be possible through cooperation with Daeryun." Through this cooperation, Daeryun has also taken a step closer to expanding the global market. Park Dong-il, CEO of Daeryun Law Firm, said, "We will actively utilize Daeryun's global legal network and collaboration system with local lawyers in China," and added, "We will lay the foundation for foreigners residing in Korea to receive legal services without discrimination."

According to the legal community on the 6th, the Ansan Branch of the Suwon District Prosecutors' Office handed over the case to the prosecution on the 27th of last month on charges of violating the law on the regulation and punishment of concealment of criminal proceeds. Mr. A, a man in his 60s, was cleared of any charges. Mr. A has been under investigation for allegedly receiving and hiding about 280 million won of the approximately 3.5 billion won in funds that his wife, a company accountant, had embezzled while working. The issue of the investigation was whether, despite knowing about his wife's embezzlement, he received a large amount of money transferred to her account and used it to buy real estate, such as an apartment and a new building. Mr. A completely denied the charges, saying, “Because my wife was in charge of all household expenses and income management, I did not even know the details of the account transactions in my name.” He continued, “I had no idea of the embezzlement until my wife went to turn herself in to the police.” He added, “The funds to purchase the real estate in question were also funds given by my mother. He claimed, “It was purchased by combining the existing deposit.” The prosecution accepted Mr. A’s claim, saying that the process of selling his apartment seemed to be a normal flow. The prosecution said, “According to the real estate transaction details, the apartments purchased in the suspect’s name are part of the normal apartment sales process, such as acquiring a house from a non-owner or disposing of an existing house and acquiring a new house,” and judged, “There are no circumstances confirmed to suggest that excessive property was acquired through criminal proceeds.” Regarding the account in Mr. Attorney Dae-ryun of the law firm explained, “According to Article 4 of the crime of concealment of criminal proceeds, it must be clearly proven that he was aware of the circumstances. Just because he is a family member, it cannot be concluded that he was aware of another person’s crime and conspired to collect the proceeds.” He added, “In this case, it is a case where the wife was able to be cleared of the unfair charge of being an accomplice by proving through objective financial transaction details that she was the one in charge of managing the household finances.” Reporter Mi-ji Kim unknown@kyeonggi.com[View full article] “Buying real estate with money my wife embezzled?”...

Guaranteed high profits” Ms. A, a woman in her 20s, boarded a plane to Laos in 2022 after receiving an offer for a high-profit part-time job. Mr. A's life suddenly fell into the abyss after he had hopes for a new beginning. As soon as I arrived at the site, my passport was taken away, I was imprisoned, and I was assigned work. After escaping at the risk of her life, she returned to Korea, but she was investigated as a suspect rather than a victim. The prosecution viewed Ms. A as a key manager of a voice phishing organization worth about 170 million won and requested 10 years in prison. The prosecution presented as key evidence that the IP address used in the crime and Mr. A's financial account access address were the same. However, the first trial court found Mr. A not guilty. According to the Ministry of Foreign Affairs, the number of reports of Koreans being detained in Cambodia increased from 1 case in 2022 to 330 cases (January to August) last year. It was found that these criminal organizations mainly lure young people through social media with phrases such as ‘Recruitment for a large overseas Telemachine branch in Southeast Asia.’ In relation to this, lawyer Nam Kwon-yul of Daeryun Law Firm, who represented Mr. A, emphasized, “Overseas high-paying part-time jobs are likely to involve college students in their early or mid-20s with no social experience,” and added, “It is better not to even try because there are cases where they are indicted without actually committing a crime.” Attorney Nam is below. Q&A. - In this case, how was the victim of employment fraud identified as the voice phishing manager? ▲The defendant was a victim who had his passport taken away and imprisoned locally after being deceived by the words ‘highly profitable translation part-time job.’ The only basis for the prosecution's indictment was 'IP address'. The IP used to access the voice phishing malicious program server matches the IP used by the defendant to access his personal financial account. Based on this, the prosecution viewed the defendant as a key manager of a criminal organization that directly managed the server and requested 10 years in prison. - The focus of the defense of the suspect was ▲ Focused on digging into the technical blind spots that the investigative agency had missed. First, the uniqueness of the local network environment in Southeast Asia was emphasized. In places such as Laos, hundreds of people use a method of sharing one public IP (CGNAT). Therefore, it could not be concluded that it was the defendant's terminal based solely on the IP address match. Additionally, the defendant only had about 8 months of experience working as a development assistant in the local area. It was strongly expressed in court from the beginning that it was technically impossible to directly manage a malicious program server that requires advanced security technology. - The specific grounds for the first trial court's decision to acquit all are three main reasons. First, this is the initial statement left at the embassy immediately after escaping. The 'raw truth', written only to survive without legal calculations, became a decisive shield to break the prosecution's logic of collusion. Second is the composition of the local organization. Since most of the members were Chinese, it was difficult to view it as a voice phishing organization that required fluent Korean. Thirdly, there is a lack of objective evidence. As a result of the investigative agency's forensics, no malicious programs were found on the defendant's electronic device. - The fundamental reason why innocent participants repeatedly occur in Southeast Asia is because it is strongly characterized as 'large-scale human trafficking' that exploits the desperation of young people. They are lured overseas with high profits, and as soon as they arrive there, their passports are taken away and they are imprisoned in a space cut off from the outside world. Young people who lack social experience have no choice but to succumb to this extreme violence and pressure. However, investigative agencies only focus on the results of 'being at the crime scene' and ignore the structural violence as to why they were unable to escape from there. The limitations of these superficial investigations are the cause of wronged victims being transformed into perpetrators overnight. - When involved in an overseas voice phishing incident, the response strategy according to the damage situation. ▲ The key is where to focus the defense. If you are a simple participant, you must prove that you were a low-level assistant who only received a fixed salary and not a profit share. On the other hand, in cases where the person was forcibly taken away by coercion, as in this case, it is necessary to secure as much as possible the 'initial statement' before legal calculations are involved, such as the embassy rescue request letter mentioned above.

How to respond to a suspect whose 10-year sentence was overturned (link) 2026-05-12T11:49:32.922Z https://www.daeryunlaw.com/en/broadcast/6215 The court refuted the claim that “I grabbed her hand by surprise,” saying, “I only touched it because I was worried about her hand shaking.” The court said, “There was actually a symptom of shaking hands, and there was nothing unusual before or after the act… no intent to molest was proven.” A man accused of making surprise physical contact with a woman he met for the first time was found not guilty in court. The Seoul Central District Court found Mr. A, who was indicted on charges of forcible harassment, not guilty on the 18th of last month. In 2024, Mr. A was accused of assaulting B, a woman he met through social media, by surprise, holding her hand while they were talking offline for the first time. The prosecution believed that Mr. A was guilty and requested a summary order of a fine of 5 million won, which the court also accepted. However, Mr. A objected and requested a formal trial. During the trial, Mr. A completely denied the charges. At the time of the incident, Mr. B's hands were shaking violently, and he only held his hands to calm them down. The court found Mr. A not guilty. The court said, “The place where the incident occurred was an open road with a sign saying ‘CCTV recording in progress.’” He added, “There were many people passing by, so the actions of the two people were fully identifiable.” He continued, “At the time of the incident, the victim actually had symptoms of shaking his hands, and there was nothing unusual about the actions or reactions of the two people before and after the specific point when the defendant held her hand. Considering this, there is ample room to believe that the defendant touched the victim’s body out of concern for her condition, so it was a case of molestation.” He added, “It is difficult to say that intent has been proven.” Meanwhile, lawyer Seo Bong-ha of Daeryun Law Firm, who represented Mr. A, said, “As a result of analysis of the CCTV footage, the location was an environment where harassment could not occur as it was on the main street with all sides exposed enough for about 30 passers-by and many vehicles to pass by for 10 minutes.” He added, “Mr. “We were able to find out that there was no intention,” he explained. jckim99@sportsseoul.comReporter Kim Jong-cheol[View full article] Man accused of forcibly molesting a woman he met for the first time by holding her hand... Law: Not guilty due to “no intent” (Shortcut) 2026-05-13T14:33:32.197Z https://www.daeryunlaw.com/en/broadcast/6214 Column by American lawyer Dong-hoo Son of Daeryun Law Firm (Limited) The number of so-called ‘flip’ cases of moving headquarters overseas to attract global investment and successful overseas expansion is increasing. The number of Korean companies attempting to enter the global ecosystem by establishing local joint ventures (JVs) is also increasing. According to a media report, the number of domestic startups that conducted flips increased six-fold in 10 years from 32 in 2014 to 186 in 2024. This suggests that for export companies, restructuring their governance structure in line with global standards is no longer an option but an essential gateway to growth. However, a hasty push for a flip could actually be detrimental. This is because you may face an unexpected tax bomb or management crisis. This is a tragedy that occurs when only superficial procedures are followed without a professional understanding of ‘cross border’ work, in which the laws and systems of both countries are complicatedly intertwined. We must be aware that a flip that is not preceded by a thorough legal diagnosis can become a fatal trap that is strangling the company, and we must thoroughly check the legal risks. The first difficulty we face is the tax burden. The flip is carried out by exchanging existing Korean corporation stocks for newly established U.S. holding company stocks. At this time, there is a high risk that Korean tax authorities will regard this as an actual transfer of stocks and impose a large capital gains tax. If the tax treaties and tax laws of both countries are not analyzed at the same time to design a legal tax-saving structure, a situation may arise where the founder has to pay hundreds of millions of won in transfer taxes without actually receiving cash, depending on the valuation at the time of stock exchange. In addition, the threat to management rights caused by the differences in the corporate law systems between Korea and the United States cannot be overlooked. The U.S. state of Delaware, where many companies head, broadly recognizes the ‘principle of business judgment’ and strongly protects the authority of the board of directors. However, paradoxically, in order to keep this in check, American investors put strong pressure on entrepreneurs through ‘contracts’ rather than laws. They control the board of directors by inserting detailed protective provisions, such as an extensive right of veto, into investment contracts, and after the fact, they actively utilize shareholder lawsuits to challenge directors' violations of their strict fiduciary duties. Ultimately, if the toxic clauses contained in the local standard investment contract cannot be filtered out, there is a high possibility that the founder will lose actual management leadership or become embroiled in enormous litigation risk, despite having a nominal equity advantage. In fact, there are many cases where founders of famous domestic startups were effectively excluded from the board of directors after Series B. The risk of violating the Foreign Exchange Transactions Act that arises during the capital transfer process is also fatal. This is because omitting Korea's foreign exchange prior reporting obligation or violating procedures can escalate into a criminal risk that will result in investigation by investigative agencies. Therefore, if the regulatory networks of both countries are not carefully examined, successfully attracted funds can suddenly become shackles that can shake the existence of a company. In other words, overseas capital movement is a highly complex project that goes beyond simple contract review and can only be completed when the laws, systems, and regulatory systems of both countries are aligned. Ultimately, the key to solving all these problems lies in practical cross-border capabilities. Korean and American laws differ not only in language but also in the regulatory systems surrounding companies. It should not be overlooked that decisions made solely based on U.S. law may directly violate the taxation logic of Korean tax authorities or foreign exchange transaction law regulations. With the existing fragmented method in which large domestic law firms delegate practical work to local law firms, it is difficult to understand the organically intertwined legal issues of the two countries in a timely and three-dimensional manner. In addition, there is a risk that communication will be delayed in urgent situations. Therefore, for companies that are about to take a full-fledged global leap forward, it is essential to have the assistance of a working expert who can apply the legal standards of both countries at the same time and formulate a detailed strategy. Beyond the fragmentary review of documents, lawyers from both countries should be able to communicate in real time about a single case and come up with a comprehensive solution. In a structure where the headquarters in Korea and local lawyers in the U.S. provide separate advice on the same case, the gap becomes a risk. The success or failure of the flip ultimately depends on whether the legal environments of both countries can be controlled simultaneously within one strategy.[View full article] ‘Flip’ has increased 6-fold in 10 years... How do we prevent global tickets from becoming ‘poisonous’? (Shortcut) 2026-05-13T22:25:25.780Z https://www.daeryunlaw.com/en/broadcast/6213 The representative of a shipbuilding company's partner company was sent to the prosecution on suspicion of tax evasion by issuing false tax invoices exceeding billion won in the name of another person, but was cleared of the charges by proving that only the name was different and that he actually provided construction services. According to the legal community on the 2nd, the Tongyeong branch of the Changwon District Prosecutors' Office decided not to indict Mr. Mr. A, who runs a shipyard subcontracting company, was accused of creating a business in the name of another person, such as a family member, for the purpose of avoiding taxes, and issuing false tax invoices worth 1.4 billion won dozens of times. However, although it is true that Mr. A operated the business in the name of another person, he denied the charges, saying that it was not a fictitious transaction in which only tax invoices were issued without actual transactions. Although he ran several work teams with his family, he actually carried out the construction as one company, so he claimed that only the name of the person issuing the tax invoice was different and that he provided construction services to the main contractor normally. The prosecution determined that Mr. A's claim was true based on the content of the conversation he had with the quantity team employees via messenger and the details of remittance of the construction payment received from the main contractor to the team members. Even if the tax invoice was issued in the name of another person, the actual construction service was provided according to the information stated in the tax invoice. If services were provided, the charges were dismissed due to insufficient evidence in accordance with the Supreme Court precedent that a fake tax invoice issued without a transaction cannot be considered. Attorney Cho Ik-cheon of Daeryun Law Firm, who represented Mr. A, said, “We presented as objective evidence the fact that Mr. A’s work team actually provided construction services to the main contractor. We logically explained the multi-level subcontracting practices in the shipbuilding industry and the legal principles of Supreme Court precedents, and we were able to receive a non-prosecution by proving that there was no intention in the fictitious transaction.” said.

Acquitted of charges by proving actual construction (link) 2026-05-13T12:16:47.532Z https://www.daeryunlaw.com/en/broadcast/6210 Youngjin Ahn, attorney at Daeryun Law Firm, has frequently asked questions from clients who have been involved in voice phishing cases. The question is, why are multiple police stations across the country contacting me even though I only participated in one crime? This stems from the characteristics of voice phishing cases, where investigative jurisdiction is determined based on the region where the victim occurred. From the suspect's perspective, there is great fatigue from having to repeat the same investigation multiple times, but the real problem is that if each person goes to trial, the final sentence may be much heavier than expected. In this situation, the most important strategy in practice is 'merging', which brings together scattered cases into one. This is because it is more advantageous for the defendant to have multiple cases judged at once in one trial than to be sentenced separately. This is in accordance with the principle of handling concurrent crimes stipulated under Article 37 of the Criminal Act, and in practice, this results in the overall sentence being lowered each time a person is sentenced. In our experience, the effect of reducing sentences is approximately 20%, so merging is not a simple administrative procedure but a practical response to the defendant's right to defense. However, it is rare for investigative agencies to merge cases on their own. In particular, it is difficult to expect mergers at the police stage due to jurisdictional issues, so actual attempts at mergers begin in earnest from the point when the case is transferred to the prosecution. In this case, it is necessary to go beyond simply submitting a written document, and to explain in detail to the prosecutor's office in charge that multiple cases against the same suspect are in progress, and then collect the cases at the local jurisdiction office. This is a point where efforts must be made to unite the scattered flow of cases through active communication with investigative agencies. If some cases have already gone to trial, a more elaborate response is needed. The key is to match the ‘progress speed’ of the entire incident. For cases indicted first, the date should be adjusted so that sentencing is not carried out quickly, and for cases still under investigation, it should be urged that indictments be carried out as quickly as possible. This is because once the sentence is handed down, it becomes virtually impossible to merge it with the case indicted later. Ultimately, the aspects of voice phishing cases vary depending on how this complex timing is managed. Of course, it is not easy to unite cases scattered across the country. This is because it requires an arduous process of individually checking and coordinating the different progress of the police, prosecutors, and courts. However, the legal results when cases are merged through such strategic efforts are clearly different from those where cases are not merged. In the end, the decisive key to lowering the actual sentence in a voice phishing case lies in a carefully designed response strategy from the beginning of the investigation. ● Contributions by external writers may differ from the editorial direction of this paper.

This measure is in response to a steep increase in the number of related cases filed since the establishment of a dedicated court in 2023. In fact, the number of annual school violence administrative litigation cases filed with the administrative court rapidly increased from 51 in 2022 to 134 in 2025. In effect, the final destination for resolving school violence cases is the court. Behind the intensifying legal response from parents and students, there is a sense of crisis that the results of the School Violence Review Committee's disposition are directly related to the students' future. Disciplinary records from the Academic Violence Committee under the Office of Education remain in the school records and have a fatal impact on future career paths, including college entrance exams. In fact, out of 3,273 test takers with a confirmed history of school violence in the 2026 college entrance exam, 2,460, or 75%, were found to have failed. However, recently, there have been frequent cases where even simple fights or misunderstandings have become excessively controversial and resulted in unfairly severe disciplinary action. There was also a case where a playful conversation between classmates led to a transfer, but the court ruled to cancel the decision after reconciliation with the victim was recognized. This suggests that there is a clear opportunity to correct unreasonable dispositions through school violence administrative litigation. Attorney Kim Dae-won of Daeryun Law Firm (Limited) said, "For a successful school violence administrative lawsuit, it is essential to collect objective and clear evidence from the early stage. First, if you have been unfairly identified as a perpetrator or received excessive disciplinary action, you must focus on proving that the act did not meet the requirements for school violence. Reveal the context of the case through messenger conversation details, factual confirmation from surrounding students, etc., and identify procedural flaws in the school violence committee investigation process and the appropriateness of the level of disciplinary action. “There is a need to argue legally,” he explained. He continued, "On the contrary, the victimized student must prevent secondary damage caused by the offending student's harsh punishment or the school's lukewarm response. They must persuade the court by arguing the illegality of the existing disposition based on objective data such as hospital medical certificates and psychological counseling records." Attorney Kim Dae-won said, "What is important to note is that the effect of disciplinary action is not suspended just by filing a lawsuit. In order to prevent disciplinary action from being implemented or recorded in the school record during the lawsuit period, an 'application for suspension of execution' must be filed in parallel with an administrative lawsuit. All irreparable damage that will occur due to the disposition and the impact on public welfare must be disclosed in detail, and the possibility of winning the claim on the merits must be fully explained in accordance with the recent Supreme Court decision 2025mu565. In the application for suspension of execution, He said, “Elaborate preparation equivalent to that of a lawsuit on the merits is required.” He continued, "School violence administrative litigation is a serious legal dispute with a clear burden of proof. If you want to cancel or reduce disciplinary action, you must exclude subjective emotional responses. Collection of evidence based on facts, consistent statements, and systematic response according to legal procedures are the only sure ways to protect the future of students."[View full article] Increasing number of administrative lawsuits against school violence, evidence should be used instead of emotion (link) 2026-05-14T01:42:31.824Z https://www.daeryunlaw.com/en/broadcast/6208 Expert says, "Rather than rejecting it outright, we should respond selectively by issue." On the 10th, the so-called Yellow Envelope Act was implemented in earnest and the industrial field was engulfed in turmoil. The key point is that if the main contracting company has a substantial impact on the working conditions of the subcontracting workers, it must be considered an employer and respond to collective bargaining. According to the legal community on the 31st, after the enforcement of the amendments to Articles 2 and 3 of the Trade Union and Labor Relations Adjustment Act, more than 400 subcontracting unions requested collective bargaining from the main contracting companies, and only about 10 companies accepted it. Experts warn that such inaction could actually lead to a greater legal burden. Attorney Bang In-tae of Daeryun Law Firm emphasized, “Now is not the time to worry about whether or not to agree to negotiations, but rather to consider what, with whom, and to what extent to negotiate.” The standard for a primary contractor to be recognized as an employer is whether or not it has ‘structural control over working conditions.’ Even if the main contractor does not directly instruct subcontractors to do work, they can be viewed as employers if they virtually eliminate the possibility for subcontractors to determine their own working conditions through production schedules or cost structures. Attorney Bang explained, “A typical example is when the main contractor confirms the production plan and affects the working hours of the subcontractor, or makes it difficult for the subcontractor to autonomously adjust wages through the unit price of the contract.” However, if it remains at the level of general contract management, such as presenting quality standards or negotiating delivery dates, it is difficult to view it as a user. By industry, the impact is expected to be greater in places where the multi-level subcontracting structure is established and where primary and subcontracting work is closely interconnected, such as shipbuilding, automobiles, steel, logistics, and construction. Hanwha Ocean and Hyundai Heavy Industries have already received and announced a request for negotiation from the subcontractor union. If they ignore the request for negotiation or delay, they may be subject to legal liability. The union law defines refusal or delay in collective bargaining without justifiable reasons as an unfair labor practice. Attorney Bang said, “If the primary contractor persists without responding even though there is a possibility that it can be viewed as an employer, it could lead to an application for relief from the Labor Relations Commission, an administrative lawsuit, or even criminal punishment.” However, this does not mean that all negotiation demands must be responded to. Attorney Bang advised, “Instead of blanket rejection, we need an approach that examines each issue.” If the subcontractor actually exercises independent equipment and personnel rights, and the main contractor only manages quality and delivery, employer status can be denied. Issues in which the main contractor is not involved, such as individual disciplinary action for subcontracted employees or detailed wage systems, and defects in the procedures of the union that requested negotiation are also grounds for defense. The manual released by the Ministry of Employment and Labor in February of this year also needs to be checked. The original position of viewing all employees of the main contractor and subcontractors as one bargaining unit was changed to classifying them as separate bargaining units. Attorney Bang emphasized, “Companies that have prepared to respond based on previous standards need to reexamine right now.” Attorney Bang said, “Future risks are more likely to arise from avoiding negotiations without any preparation than from incorrect negotiations,” and urged, “Management should recognize this as not just a problem in the human resources department, but as a management-wide problem where production, purchasing, safety, and legal affairs are all connected.” Reporter Hwang Jeong-won (garden@sidae.com)[View full article] Companies 'non-responsive' to demands for negotiation on the Yellow Envelope Act...

In particular, it is attracting attention as an unusual ruling that breaks the existing practice of holding investors partially responsible and recognizes 100% responsibility of financial institutions. According to the legal community on the 31st, the Seoul Northern District Court ruled on the 10th that in a lawsuit claiming contract money filed by a woman in her 70s against Securities Company B, "the proceeds already received from the investment principal." The court ruled in favor of the plaintiff, saying, "Pay the full amount, which is approximately 265.88 million won. This is a result of fully acknowledging the actual damages claimed by the plaintiff. In 2019, Mr. A was introduced to an employee of B Securities Company in the same branch through his main bank. At that time, the employee recommended a real estate fund, a first-class ultra-high risk private equity fund that could result in a loss of the entire principal, and Mr. A gave 304.5 million won to it. I invested. The problem arose when a dispute with movie theater tenants arose due to the COVID-19 incident and the sale of real estate fell through. Even though the originally set fund maturity date was exceeded twice, Mr. A ultimately did not receive his investment back. Accordingly, Mr. A filed a lawsuit claiming that he did not receive a proper explanation about the ultra-high risk structure of the product or the possibility of principal loss at the time of investment, and that the basic principle of recommending a product appropriate for the investor's situation was not followed. On the other hand, Securities Company B completely denied its obligation to return the investment. Since the real estate sale was not completed and the fund was not cashed out, the contract cannot be considered terminated. In addition, the securities company even refused to request that “if it is difficult to return the cash, at least hand over the fund certificate as is.” As the Capital Markets Act was revised and the minimum investment standard for private equity funds was raised to 500 million won, Mr. A, who invested 300 million won, was deemed 'unqualified'. However, the court ruled in Mr. A's favor. The court acknowledged the violation of the duty of explanation and the principle of suitability under the Capital Markets Act, saying, "The defendant relied only on information received inappropriately from the bank without knowing the latest information of the investor, and unreasonably recommended ultra-high-risk products to the plaintiff, an elderly and vulnerable financial consumer." He continued, "The limit on the investment standard amount is only a regulation applied when issuing a new fund, and cannot be applied at the stage of settling and returning existing contracts." “It is against the principles of good faith to reduce the amount of compensation for unconfirmed responsibility,” he said, and ruled for full compensation. Attorney Nam Kwon-yul of Daeryun Law Firm, who represented the plaintiff, said, “The plaintiff was in a desperate situation where he had to support the medical expenses of his unconscious son and the living expenses of his family on behalf of his widowed spouse.” He pointed out, “The recommendation of an ultra-high-risk product that does not fit the financial purpose at all to vulnerable financial consumers in a trustworthy space such as a bank branch is a clear mis-sale.” “This ruling, which breaks the customary offset of investor negligence and recognizes 100% responsibility of financial institutions, is a very meaningful precedent that demonstrates the court’s strong will that it can no longer grant impunity to perpetrators,” he explained. #incident #court #privatefund #fullcompensation Shin Min-ji (sourminjee@ikbc.co.kr)[View full article] Incomplete sale of private equity funds to elderly investors in their 70s...

The longer the construction period, the greater the possibility that unexpected variables will occur, which will soon lead to acute disputes. In particular, construction disputes require consideration of labor, materials, and civil complaints issues as well as interference with pre-post processes, so early response is paramount. The most effective way to win a construction dispute is prevention, and the first step is drafting a contract. When reviewing drawings and contracts, it is essential to carefully consider and codify all risks that may arise for each process after construction begins. In particular, specific and clear details must be written to prevent differences in interpretation between parties in the future. In addition, due to the long-term nature of construction, numerous changes are bound to occur on site. However, 'verbal agreements', which are commonly used in practical settings, inevitably face limitations in proof in the event of a post-facto dispute. Even minor changes must be recorded in writing and signed by both parties. In particular, since the relationship between changes to a contract becomes the basis for its effectiveness, it is also necessary to establish a basis, such as by writing process meeting minutes, or to clearly record the date and time of the change. If construction is suspended or resumed, the reason and date and time, and for delays in construction, the cause and responsibility must be written in writing. If the cause of the delay lies with the orderer, this must be officially notified and recorded in order to secure an advantageous position in future liquidated damages disputes. In addition, in the event of a dispute, it is necessary to specify in advance in the contract which method to use among mediation, arbitration, and litigation to establish a rapid response system. Ultimately, the most certain strategy to win a construction lawsuit is to closely reflect all predictable scenarios in the contract and make sure to keep all changes in the construction process in writing. If necessary, it is most important to take preemptive action to eliminate the seeds of potential disputes from the contract conclusion stage through the assistance of legal experts. This is because thorough contract writing and thorough change management are the surest means of preventing the possibility of disputes and the best way to secure an advantageous position.

According to the legal community on the 30th, the Masan Branch of the Changwon District Prosecutors' Office acquitted Mr. A, a man who had been sent on charges of obstruction of official duties on the 13th, due to insufficient evidence. Mr. A, who worked at a foundation that was a government- and local government-funded organization, was admitted to a theme park selected as a national project in 2019. While in charge of licensing-related work, he applied for a ‘pre-construction use permit’ from the relevant ministry. During this process, Mr. A was accused of writing the completion rate as 100% in the supervisor’s opinion and arbitrarily fabricating and submitting an image of the seal of a private sector supervisor who was not present at the time. At the time, in reality, construction in some areas had not been completed. Accordingly, local government B, which was in charge of management and supervision, accused Mr. A of interfering with the legitimate performance of public officials' duties by falsifying documents as if the entire process had been completed, despite knowing that there were unconstructed parts. However, Mr. A denied the charges. At the time of applying for a use permit, the supervisory director had already confirmed and stamped appropriate construction on the ‘Construction Project Management Report’, which is a higher-level document, so he only believed in this and processed the work, and there was no intention to deceive. The prosecution also accepted this claim. It is difficult to say that Mr. A only recognized that the construction was completed based on the construction project management report, and had the intention of making a false statement. The prosecution also determined that since the government agency with final approval authority was already aware of the fact that some facilities were inadequate through on-site inspections, the written opinion submitted by Mr. A could not be considered to have influenced the public official to the extent of causing a misunderstanding or distorting the review judgment. Attorney Jeon Kang-woo of the Daeryun Law Firm, who represented Mr. A, said, “The crime of obstruction of official duties can only be established by taking advantage of the ignorance of the other public official, but in this case, the crime cannot be established because the government office in charge is already aware of the current situation. He said, “We were able to receive a decision not to prosecute by carefully explaining that the work in question was not an arbitrary act, but normal work according to the order of approval and that there was no intention to make false information.” Reporter Jeong Cheol-wook[View full article] Public institution employee acquitted of false submission of national project documents...

The purpose of the new center is to strengthen the contractor's right to defense in the existing defect lawsuit market, which is biased toward the plaintiffs (residents' representative meetings, etc.). Daeryun plans to provide customized risk management services to construction companies through defendant-specific strategies and preventive consulting. Daeryun has a team of experts in each field, led by Center Director Kim Kwang-deok, who has nearly 20 years of practical experience in construction companies and medium-to-large law firms. Attorney Park Jeong-gyu, who has experience as a Supreme Court trial researcher and construction court judge, Kang Dae-hee, who has distinguished himself in advising construction companies, and Kim Hyeong-jin, who has numerous achievements including large-scale construction projects. A lawyer joined to increase professionalism. Here, attorney Seon Yoo-ju, who specializes in redevelopment and reconstruction and is registered with the Korean Bar Association, and attorney Shin Hye-jin, who has extensive experience in providing legal advice to public institutions such as LH, plan to establish a collaborative system to resolve the grievances of construction companies in a three-dimensional way. The Defect Litigation Center goes beyond simple litigation and provides integrated services such as defect prevention consulting, construction contract review, and defect appraisal response. In particular, at the defect evaluation stage, which is the core of litigation, we focus on calculating the reasonable scope of liability by closely analyzing various reasons for limitation of liability, such as design negligence or usage negligence. We have also strengthened our internal infrastructure to respond effectively. In connection with the evidence investigation center in Daeryun, we secure objective physical evidence such as construction records and supervision reports and establish a logical defense system. At the same time, we plan to cooperate with carefully selected defect appraisal companies to share the latest precedents and technology trends and provide services that combine technology and law to construction companies. Daeryun Center Director Kim Gwang-deok said, “Due to the nature of projects, stable risk management is essential for construction companies,” and emphasized, “Based on Daeryun’s unique ability to secure evidence and technology network, we will become a partner that protects construction companies’ legitimate defense rights and resolves management uncertainties.” Reporter Kim Hee-guk kukie@kookje.co.kr[View full article] Kukje Newspaper - Daeryun Law Firm Launches Defect Litigation Center...

It is a document called a ‘confirmation of fact’ or ‘confirmation of violation.’ The format is simple. The person being investigated signs in his/her handwriting, ‘I confirm that I have committed the following violations.’ However, the legal ramifications are by no means simple. The court treats this document as evidence equivalent to a de facto confession. The Supreme Court maintains the position that if an administrative agency receives a confirmation letter admitting a specific violation during an on-site investigation, it is difficult to deny its evidentiary value unless there are special circumstances such as it was written forcibly or it is difficult to use as proof due to insufficient content. The problem is that the burden of proof lies with the person being investigated to prove that it was written under ‘special circumstances’, that is, under compulsion. Even if there was pressure from the investigator, it is realistically very difficult to prove this after the fact. In actual investigation sites, there are many cases where direct psychological pressure is applied. Among the cases I consulted with, there was one where the investigator said, "If you stamp the confirmation now, that's it, but if you don't stamp it, you have to look at the entire ledger of the headquarters." In another case, the person under investigation stated, “I don’t know if it violated the law or not, but I wrote it because they told me to.” There was also a case where the confirmation written by the client, who runs a pharmacy, following the investigator's instructions on the day of the field investigation contained some information that the client himself did not remember. If the above situation arises, the person being investigated may be subject to unfair treatment because he or she must prove that the contents of the statement are not true. Such coercion of a statement of fact may constitute criminal coercion, and furthermore, it is very unfair in that it violates the right to refuse to make a statement guaranteed under the Constitution. However, unlike criminal procedures, the guarantee of the rights of the parties in administrative investigation procedures falls far short of this, and awareness of the procedural legitimacy of courts and administrative agencies is weak. Therefore, it is important for the parties involved in the case to take good care of their procedural rights. Specifically, medical institutions and pharmacy managers should keep the following in mind when conducting field investigations. First, it is necessary to distinguish whether the wording of the confirmation is a ‘statement of facts’ or a ‘legal evaluation’. ‘There is a specific post on the website’ is a confirmation of fact, but ‘the post constitutes a violation of medical law’ is a legal judgment. Even if the person being investigated can confirm the facts, they have no legal basis to admit for themselves whether it is a violation. The determination of whether or not there is a violation is the responsibility of the administrative office and the court. Therefore, it is justifiable to refuse to sign a statement containing a legal evaluation, so it is not an unreasonable request to request that the statement be modified to state only objective facts. Second, refusal to sign is a right, not disobedience. If the investigator forces you to sign or makes comments implying that you will be disadvantaged if you refuse, you must take note of the contents. It is best to contact a lawyer immediately during the investigation process, and if this is not possible, at least securing time by saying, 'I will review the contents and then sign' can make a difference in the situation. Third, if you have already signed, you must move immediately. You must immediately secure materials to prove facts different from what is stated in the confirmation, such as prescriptions, dispensing records, medical records, accounting ledgers, and transaction statements. If a coercive atmosphere has been created, recording the circumstances in detail immediately after the conclusion of the investigation can also be useful evidence. CCTV footage from the day of the investigation and statements from bystanders are especially important. Since it is automatically overwritten after a certain period of time, you should request preservation of the video or save it yourself as soon as possible. A single fact-confirmation letter can be the decisive basis for administrative action leading to license suspension, business suspension, fines, and even criminal charges. If you treat signing the documents presented by the investigator as if it were an insignificant procedure, you may end up facing unfair circumstances later. Therefore, it is important to check the contents before signing and, if necessary, seek expert assistance. |Contribution| Attorney Lee Il-hyung of Daeryun Law Firm (Pharmaceutical & Bio-Healthcare Center)[View full article] [Contribution] Tips for responding to the practice of requesting factual confirmation when investigating medical institutions and pharmacies (link) 2026-05-14T01:18:09.991Z https://www.daeryunlaw.com/en/broadcast/6201 Recently, voice phishing damage has been increasing rapidly. According to data from the National Police Agency, voice phishing damage increased by about 47% from KRW 854.5 billion in 2024 to KRW 1.2578 trillion the following year. The number of cases also increased by 12% over the same period. In particular, as criminal methods become more sophisticated, cases of people going beyond simple financial losses and becoming involved in crimes without their knowledge are appearing. A representative example is the so-called ‘passbook rental/account rental’ method, which uses account information for crimes under the guise of loan procedures. Even if you thought you were a victim, you can be subject to criminal punishment just for providing an account. Article 6, Paragraph 3, Subparagraph 2 of the Electronic Financial Transactions Act prohibits the rental of access media such as bankbooks, check cards, cash cards, and OTPs. Violators may be subject to imprisonment for up to 5 years or a fine of up to 30 million won. However, not all cases are subject to punishment just because an account is provided. ‘Renting of access media’ refers to the act of allowing another person to conduct an electronic financial transaction using an access media without the user’s management or supervision while receiving, requesting, or promising compensation. The ‘compensation’ referred to here means economic benefit, and the standard for judgment is whether it was provided with the knowledge of such benefit. (Supreme Court ruling 2020Do16468, delivered on April 15, 2021) This legal principle has actually been applied in cases conducted by the author. Mr. A, who has been an athlete his entire life, was contacted by a financial counselor while looking for a loan on the Internet. Believing the explanation that “you can only get a loan if you have accumulated transaction records,” I provided my account information, bank ID, and password, but was later asked by the counselor to retransmit the deposited money or purchase virtual assets. Although he followed the instructions without much doubt, the account was used as a channel for voice phishing funds, and Mr. A was eventually investigated for violating the Electronic Financial Transactions Act. The key to the case was whether Mr. A was aware of the crime and provided the account. Circumstances in which money was promised or paid in return for providing an account have not been confirmed. As a result of explaining that he had very limited financial experience, that he surrendered to the investigative agency and returned some of the funds to the victim, he was ultimately not indicted as it was judged that the intention of renting access media was difficult to recognize. Providing a passbook or account to another person like this may seem like a simple convenience, but it can lead to realistic disadvantages such as criminal punishment as well as restrictions on financial transactions. In particular, if you are registered as a ‘financial disorderly person,’ serious restrictions may occur, such as restrictions on credit card issuance or loan use for a certain period of time. As in Mr. A’s case, access media rental often begins with words such as ‘You must create a loan record’ or ‘You only need to check the remittance details.’ Loan advertisements with unreasonable conditions, contact via Telegram, and requests to provide accounts, cards, and OTPs are typical signs of crime. Under no circumstances should access media be passed on to others. If funds from an unknown source have been deposited into your account, you must never transfer or withdraw the funds and must immediately report them to financial institutions and investigative agencies to confirm the facts. If you have already become the subject of an investigation, you must systematically organize the circumstances in which you provided the access medium, specific contact details, whether compensation was received, and the process of following instructions, from the initial stage. Like Mr. A, you can expect non-indictment or leniency only if you can prove with objective data that you did not receive compensation and that there was no intent to commit the crime. In cases where intentionality is an issue, the initial response and method of explanation determine the outcome. This is why the assistance of an experienced professional lawyer is necessary. ● Contributions by external writers may differ from the editorial direction of this paper.

This new book was designed for those who started working thinking it was just a part-time job but ended up getting involved in voice phishing and being investigated by investigative agencies. It is characterized by detailed response strategies for the entire criminal process that the suspect will face, from the initial stage of the investigation to the trial. The author, Attorney Youngjin Ahn, is a criminal lawyer registered with the Korean Bar Association and is currently working on criminal cases in various fields as a member of the Daeryun Criminal Specialized Group. In particular, we have been specializing in various types of voice phishing cases, such as cash delivery, withdrawal, and account provision. Previously, in 2024, he published “Sex Crime Defense Guidelines Introduced by a Criminal Lawyer”. Attorney Ahn conducted an in-depth analysis of recent acquittal cases in courts across the country and clearly pointed out the court’s standards and logical basis for acquittal. This is expected to be a useful guideline for defendants who need to go beyond theoretical legal knowledge and exercise their practical defense rights. Specific strategies for responding in practice were also given special attention. We have systematically organized practical points that can be immediately used in the actual case handling process, such as how to write a report, case merging strategy, reduction of sentence claims based on sentencing standards, and victim settlement procedures. Attorney Ahn Young-jin said, “This book is a guide that focuses on practical case response rather than academic theory,” and added, “I hope that it will help those who have been unfairly involved in a voice phishing case and are about to face an investigation or trial to understand the flow of the case and set their own response direction.” [Reporter Jeong-heon Son, Law Leader] twson@lawleader.co.kr][View full article] Law Leader - “I thought it was a high-paying part-time job, but is he an accomplice to voice phishing?”...

Gimpo Police Station announced on the 26th that it has decided not to forward the case to Mr. A, the owner of the distribution company who was booked on charges of violating the trademark law. Company B, a company holding domestic patents and trademark rights, was accused of selling counterfeit products by using its registered trademark and patent rights without permission. Company B claimed that Mr. A's product was substantially the same as its own product and that its brand name was written in the product name and advertising text without permission during the online sales process. Mr. A completely denied the charges. He refuted that the product does not fall within the scope of patent rights because the way it operates is different, and that it only used its own officially registered trademark during the sales process and never stole the other brand. The police decided not to send the case and said, "Although the structure of the suspect's product and Company B's patented product are similar, there are some differences." He added, "Even if this fact falls under the 'indirect infringement' under Article 127, Paragraph 2 of the Patent Act, this is a violation of the criminal law that punishes infringement of patent rights. “It is not the purpose of stipulating the composition requirements, so it is not subject to criminal punishment,” he explained. Regarding the charge of violating the trademark law, “All suspect products bear trademarks registered by the suspect,” and added, “There is a lack of objective evidence to suggest that consumers may confuse the suspect product with foreign products.” Attorney Cho Min-woo of Daeryun Law Firm, who represented Mr. A, said, “Article 127 of the Patent Act is intended to protect patent holders by imposing civil liability on indirect infringers.” “It is a regulation for the purpose,” he said. “We were able to defend the case early by refutating Company B’s claim that they misunderstood this as grounds for criminal punishment and even proving the use of our own trademark.” Intern reporter Yujin Lim iyj721@kyeonggi.com[View full article] Company representative accused of patent and trademark theft...

The Seoul Western District Prosecutors' Office decided not to indict Mr. A, in his 30s, who was sent on fraud charges on the 26th of last month. Mr. A, an internet broadcaster, was accused of embezzling money and goods worth over 200 million won by asking for sponsorship from Mr. B, a viewer of his channel in 2024, under the pretext of marriage. Mr. B's side claimed that Mr. A started dating after expressing interest in him, but when the financial support was cut off, he unilaterally broke off the relationship and suffered psychological exploitation during the relationship, causing enormous damage. Mr. A denied the charges. All the money sent by Mr. B was in the name of voluntary sponsorship, and in fact, he also gave money to Mr. B for reasons such as hospital expenses. At the same time, Mr. A also emphasized that he once offered to return the donation he received. He also emphasized that he had offered to return the donation he had received. He asked to meet several times, but was rejected, and later found out that even the photos and personal information received were false, so he countered that he only notified them of the breakup. The prosecution decided not to indict Mr. A. The prosecution said, "The property acquired by the suspect appears to have been given voluntarily by the complainant, and there is no evidence to suggest gaslighting. If the complainant truly believed that she would marry the suspect, there is no reason to present false personal information or avoid meeting face to face." “The suspect’s statement that they broke up after finding out about false personal information is credible, and considering this, it is difficult to acknowledge the suspect’s intention to deceive,” he said, adding, “Even if the intention to deceive is recognized, there is insufficient evidence to prove the causal relationship with the act of providing property.” Attorney Yang Ki-yeon of Daeryun Law Firm, who represented Mr. He explained, “By delving into the contradiction that Mr. B avoided face-to-face encounters by presenting false identities, we were able to obtain an acquittal by proving that Mr. A had no intention of deception.” #Accident #BJ #Donation #Marriage Shin Min-ji (sourminjee@ikbc.co.kr)[View full article] A male BJ who received 200 million won in donations from viewers saying "Let's get married"...

As nine deaths were discovered concentrated in a 2.5-story duplex space that was not on the drawings, suspicions of arbitrary structural changes or illegal expansion are being cited as one of the main causes of increased casualties. The legal community predicts that this disaster will lead to a legal battle over the business owner's failure to fulfill his safety management duties depending on the results of future investigations. In this regard, attorney Kim Hyeong-jin of the Daeryun Construction and Real Estate Group at Law Firm said, "If the suspicion of illegal expansion is confirmed to be true and the structure catches fire, “If a significant causal relationship with the expansion of human casualties, such as preventing evacuation, is recognized, it will be a key basis for holding the management responsible for heavy responsibility under the Severe Accident Punishment Act,” he said. “The fact that a space not on the drawings was operated itself could be an indicator that the safety and health management system was not properly established and implemented.” The following is a Q&A with Attorney Kim. - If large-scale casualties such as the Daejeon fire occur and violations of the law, such as negligence in safety management, are detected, the business owner must be What is the most fatal legal provision? ▲If a violation of the obligation to ensure safety and health is confirmed as a result of the investigation, the strongest punishment is Article 6 (Penalty Provisions) of the Serious Accident Punishment Act. According to this provision, if one or more deaths occur due to a violation of the obligation to ensure safety and health specified in Article 4, the business owner or manager is subject to a fixed-term prison sentence of more than one year or a fine of not more than 1 billion won. In this case, as the number of deaths reached 14, it seems difficult to avoid a prison sentence, and the corporation could also be fined up to 5 billion won under Article 7. - It is still under investigation, but if it is confirmed that a 2.5-story space that was not on the drawings was arbitrarily created, what provisions of the Building Act could be problematic? ▲ It is a violation of Articles 11 (building permit) and 108 (penalties) of the Building Act. Extensions that increase the floor area of ​​a building must obtain permission from the local government. Anyone who violates this rule and builds a duplex arbitrarily will be subject to imprisonment for up to 3 years or a fine of up to 500 million won. In particular, in the case of the court, immediately after a number of casualties occur, as in this case, apart from the administrative corrective order, the investigative agency also proceeds with a judgment on criminal liability. - Even if the illegal expansion was not the cause of the fire, can the fire be held responsible for the spread of damage due to 'duty-related negligence'? ▲ Yes. Article 268 of the Criminal Act (Occupational Negligence Manslaughter) stipulates that a person who causes death due to professional negligence shall be punished by imprisonment for up to 5 years or by a fine not exceeding 20 million won. If it turns out to be true that the windows on the floor suspected of being illegal were narrow and the external passage was limited, this becomes a key element in proving the causal relationship between the negligence of the business owner and the death. In other words, if the structure in question was legal and the employees were able to evacuate, there is a higher possibility that liability for occupational negligence manslaughter will be recognized. -How are violations related to firefighting facilities, such as oil vapor and sandwich panel structures in the factory, handled? ▲Whether or not the Fire Prevention Act (Fire Prevention and Safety Management Act) has been violated is considered. Due to the nature of the process, even though there are many combustible materials, if firefighting facilities such as sprinklers are not properly maintained and managed, you are subject to severe punishment. In particular, since there is a high possibility that spaces suspected of illegal expansion are not equipped with legal fire-fighting facilities, this may lead to separate criminal punishment through a special investigation by the National Fire Agency. -Legal guidance that management currently operating old factories or shopping malls should use this disaster as a lesson to check. ▲It is too late after an accident occurs. First of all, risk factors such as fire risk processes must be blocked in advance through risk assessment, etc., and a thorough investigation must be conducted to determine whether the floor plan on the building register matches the actual space in use. If there is a duplex or temporary building that is not on the drawings, it must be demolished immediately or consult a legal expert to determine whether it was a legal procedure. In addition, the only way to minimize legal risks is to check whether firefighting facilities are being obscured by illegal structures and causing ‘visual and functional impairment.’ Reporter Kwon Byeong-seok (bsk730@fnnews.com)[View full article] ‘2.5 floors’ with many dead… The cost of customary ‘illegal expansion’ seen in the Daejeon disaster (link) 2026-05-13T14:27:22.670Z https://www.daeryunlaw.com/en/broadcast/6192 “An inevitable choice in the midst of a transaction suspension crisis” VS “Profit was stolen”… Former executives of a cosmetics company who were accused of breach of trust worth hundreds of millions of won after being accused of breach of trust worth hundreds of millions of won due to conflicting claims from both sides, were non-transferred by the police. The Yongin Western Police Station in Gyeonggi Province announced on the 24th that it had decided to non-transfer two people, including A, a man in his 50s, who was suspected of breach of trust and obstruction of business, with ‘no charges’ in January. He is accused of establishing a separate corporation while working and stealing the company's profits by swindling existing buyers. In addition, allegations were made of interfering with information processing by deleting thousands of business files stored in the company's cloud. In response, Mr. A completely denied the charges. As the transaction between the existing company and the buyer was in danger of being completely halted, the position was that the contract was inevitably continued through a new corporation in order to maintain profits. It was claimed that the deleted files were also private videos or duplicate data where the originals were stored separately, and there was no intention to intentionally interfere with the company's operations. The police judged that it was difficult to acknowledge intentional breach of trust based on the complainant's claims alone. The cause of the suspension of existing transactions has not been clearly proven, and there is room for the actions of Mr. A and others to be seen as measures to prevent losses to the company. Attorney Seo Bong-ha of Daeryun Law Firm, who represented Mr. A and others, said, "On the surface, it was a situation where a partner could have created a separate company and deleted the files, which could have caused misunderstanding, but behind the scenes, there was a legitimate reason to prevent losses to the company." “We were able to successfully defend ourselves,” he said.

This ruling goes beyond the plaintiff's company's victory and heralds a counterproductive change in the legal market. “Bar associations should also break away from regulations and begin full-scale discussions on how to use AI.” A meaningful final ruling has been made that will change the landscape of the domestic legaltech (legal technology) industry. The Supreme Court recently confirmed a ruling in favor of the plaintiff in the appeal trial of a lawsuit filed by Park Seong-jae, head of Loform Legal AI Center, against the Seoul Bar Association requesting cancellation of disallowance for concurrent employment. This is the Supreme Court's first ruling that the ‘automatic legal document creation service’ provided by LegalTech does not violate the current law. The issue in this ruling was whether the service constitutes ‘handling of legal affairs by non-lawyers’, which is strictly prohibited by the Attorney General Act. In response to this, the Supreme Court considered the system in which documents are automatically completed when users enter information as legal. The idea is that if the structure is such that only documents are created mechanically without the involvement of a lawyer's individual review or revision process, this cannot be considered legal work. Accordingly, Legal Tech is expected to quickly dominate the market for basic legal documents such as content certification, complaints, and payment orders in the future. This ruling goes beyond just one company's victory and suggests that the introduction of AI technology in the legal market is an unavoidable trend of the times. The clock in the global market is already turning quickly through ‘generative AI’ beyond simple document automation. According to a survey by global consulting firm FTI, the proportion of corporate legal teams around the world adopting generative AI has nearly doubled from 44% last year to 87% this year. The paradigm of the legal market has already begun an irreversible change. AI will be responsible for standardized tasks such as drafting basic documents and searching for extensive precedents, while lawyers will focus on advanced legal interpretation, coordination of complex interests, and establishment of detailed trial strategies. Disputes with lawyer groups over LegalTech services have continued for over 10 years. It is expected that the Korean Bar Association's regulations, which have been in conflict over the legal tech issue, will also gain some breathing space. Daeryun, a law firm to which the author belongs, has paid attention to the potential of AI technology from an early age and has been gradually introducing related systems throughout its practice. By using AI technology for simple repetitive tasks, the work structure has been improved so that lawyers can focus on essential legal service capabilities such as analysis of key issues in a case and risk management. Rather than being a threat to lawyers' jobs, AI and legal tech are powerful means of improving the quality and accessibility of legal services. Now, the legal community should not stop at blocking technological development, but start discussing in earnest how to control and utilize AI. As the first milestone has been set by the Supreme Court's ruling, it is time to establish guidelines to establish legal tech in practice.[View full article] [Contribution] Will the release of Legal Tech be a signal for innovation in legal services?

On the 13th of last month, the 11th Division of the Seoul Administrative Court ruled in favor of the plaintiff in the lawsuit filed by A, a 60-year-old care worker, against the Chairman of the Central Labor Relations Commission to cancel the unfair dismissal sanctions judgment. Last year, A said to the nursing facility, 'I will only work until the end of this month, so please process my resignation.' I sent a text message. However, tens of minutes later, I withheld my position, saying, 'I will think about it,' and later, as time passed, I reversed my intention, saying, 'Please withdraw my resignation.' However, the management refused to withdraw his resignation, saying that Mr. A had already expressed his intention to leave the company and that it had advertised job openings and hired new personnel accordingly. Accordingly, Mr. A applied to the Local Labor Relations Commission for relief from unfair dismissal. The Jino Committee said that even though the expression of intention to resign was legally withdrawn, the management unilaterally refused to withdraw his resignation. Mr. A ruled in favor of terminating the employment contract, saying that there was no justifiable reason and that it was unfair dismissal in violation of the obligation to notify in writing. However, the result was overturned in the subsequent retrial of the Central Labor Relations Commission. The Central Labor Relations Commission interpreted Mr. A's text message as a 'notice of termination', a unilateral notice, and ruled that it was not an unfair dismissal. It ruled that the worker could not arbitrarily withdraw his intention to resign once it had reached the management. Ultimately, Mr. A disagreed with this ruling and filed an administrative lawsuit in court. The court ruled in favor of Mr. A. The court ruled, "According to the in-house employment contract and employment rules of the relevant nursing facility, workers need to request the employer to accept the employee's compensation in order to avoid liability for damages that would arise in the event of unilateral resignation," and "It is reasonable to view the expression requesting processing of the resignation as an offer to terminate by agreement requesting acceptance of the resignation." At the same time, "Until Mr. A sent the message that he would withdraw the resignation, he received an expression of approval from the management." “There is no truth,” he said, adding, “The fact that the company posted a job advertisement was only a measure to prepare for the shortage of manpower, and the termination of the employment contract agreement does not take effect unless the expression of intention to accept reaches the plaintiff.” Attorney Chang-min Jeong of the Daeryun Law Firm, who represented Mr. A, said, “According to the Supreme Court ruling, an employee can freely withdraw his/her expression of intention to resign until the employer approves it based on the employee’s submission.” He added, “Mr. We did not receive it, and we were able to win the case by emphasizing that the company's internal action of posting a job advertisement could not lead to acceptance.”[View full article] I withdrew my intention to resign, but was I fired?

In the first session, Ko Seong-ho, Vice President of Air Lucid Korea, gave a presentation on the topic of ‘Salary increase rate outlook and global corporate compensation trends.’ Vice President Go emphasized the flow of compensation strategies and changes in the human resource management environment of global companies and explained why the overall corporate compensation system needs to be redesigned. In the second session, Attorney Bang In-tae and Daeryun gave a presentation on the topic of ‘2026 Labor Policy Changes.’ Attorney Bang conducted an in-depth analysis of the ‘Roadmap for Reduction of Actual Working Hours’ and ‘Major Changes in Employment and Labor Policy’ into two parts. In the first part of the presentation, he explained in detail the practical changes that the ‘Roadmap for Reduction of Actual Working Hours’ will bring to corporate sites. Attorney Bang mentioned the government's goal of reducing actual working hours to 1,708 hours, the OECD average, by 2030, and emphasized that companies should reexamine their actual working hour recording and management systems in preparation for the planning and supervision of comprehensive wage abuse that has been in effect since the end of February. In Part 2, under the theme of 'Major changes in employment and labor policies in 2026,' he analyzed what future impact it will have on the personnel system and overall labor-management relations. Attorney Bang first explained the work-family balance policy, which has been in effect since January of this year, including support for the 10 o'clock attendance system during the childcare period and an increase in subsidy for substitute workers. He then mentioned the need to reorganize the wage system following the application of the minimum wage this year. In particular, attendees showed great interest in an in-depth analysis of the revised labor union law that went into effect in March. Attorney Bang said, “The key is to change the user-defined regulations in which the employer is viewed as an employer when he or she is able to control and determine working conditions in a practical and specific way even if he or she is not a party to the labor contract. As the negotiation structure between primary and subcontractors expands, the company’s labor risk management system needs to be redesigned from the beginning.” Kim Kook-il, CEO of Daeryun Management, said, “Labor policy changes are expanding to a level that affects the overall corporate management,” and added, “This seminar will help HR managers accurately understand the policy flow and establish practical response strategies.” “I hope it will be helpful,” he said. Meanwhile, Daeryun is supporting global companies and foreign companies seeking to enter the domestic market with ▲ employment contract review ▲ employment structure reform ▲ collective agreement ▲ response to labor disputes, etc. We also operate field-based advisory projects in cooperation with professional organizations.

According to Mr. A, Mr. B is known to have imprisoned his mother by removing the rice cooker and locking the door. Accordingly, when Mr. A tried to move his mother's residence, Mr. B arbitrarily transferred his mother to a nursing hospital. Mr. A requested help from the police to find the nursing hospital where his mother was transferred, but did not receive help in locating her location due to a “family dispute.” Accordingly, Mr. A referred the case to this center. Accordingly, a list of nursing hospitals was quickly constructed using public data and medical institution registration information in the Ulsan and Busan areas, and primary filtering was performed based on objective indicators such as hospital bed size and medical treatment. Next, the subject's past movement history and health status were comprehensively analyzed to establish multiple hypotheses such as 'accessible distance', 'receiving environment', and 'point of hospitalization', and hospitals with a high probability of actual hospitalization were compressed step by step. As a result of organically combining these scattered clues, the hospital where the mother was staying was finally identified within just one hour of receiving the request. Mr. A, who confirmed his mother's survival and location, said that he was heartbroken because he was worried about how his mother would fare as she was old and unable to do anything for herself. He was at a loss because he could not get help even when he reported it to the police, but he was heartbroken, saying that he was able to find her quickly. This case shows that the role of private legal services in domestic and civil disputes is expanding beyond court arguments to identifying the substance of the case and resolving the crisis. It is a similar trend to large English-speaking law firms operating their own investigation teams from the beginning of a case to secure key information. In cases such as domestic affairs where it is difficult for investigative agencies to intervene immediately, quick confirmation of the facts is the most important step in resolving the problem. In the future, online investigation (OSINT) know-how and rapid on-site response capabilities are expected to play a big role in redressing clients' rights.

Global Epic CP Lee Soo-hwan / lsh@globalepic.co.kr Daeryun Law Firm – Cookbank Co., Ltd. MOU signed… “Corporate Dispute Prevention and Legal Advisory Cooperation” (Shortcut) 2026-05-06T00:33:38.337Z https://www.daeryunlaw.com/en/broadcast/6184 On the 12th of last month, the Financial Services Commission and the Korea Exchange announced a delisting reform plan to quickly and strictly eliminate insolvent companies. According to the exchange's simulation, the number of companies subject to KOSDAQ delisting this year is expected to increase significantly from around 50 companies originally expected to around 150 companies. As financial authorities' efforts to improve the market structure become fiercer, it is time for listed companies to face the impact this reform plan will have on their future survival and seek survival strategies. The most noteworthy change is the new requirement for delisting of 'coin stocks (stock price less than 1,000 won)' that will be established in July. If the stock price falls below 1,000 won for 30 consecutive trading days, it is first designated as a managed stock. The problem comes after that. If the price remains below 1,000 won for 45 consecutive trading days within 90 trading days after designation as a managed stock, it will be subject to final delisting review. This suggests that even if a company has normal business activities, it can be kicked out of the market at any time if it neglects stock price management. The outward-looking evaluation standards also become harsher. Starting in July of this year, the market capitalization standard for KOSDAQ-listed companies will be raised from 15 billion won to 20 billion won, and it is scheduled to be significantly strengthened to 30 billion won in January next year. What is more critical is that the ‘maximum improvement period’ given to a company in the event of delisting is shortened from 1.5 years to 1 year. Even the physical golden time for a company at risk of trading suspension to normalize its management has been greatly reduced. The standards for internal soundness and compliance have also become stricter. Previously, only complete capital erosion as of the end of the fiscal year was a requirement for delisting, but in the future, complete capital erosion on a 'semi-annual basis' will also be newly added as a substantive review requirement. The standards for expulsion for violations of public disclosure have also been significantly strengthened. Previously, in order to be eligible for listing eligibility, a company had to accumulate 15 penalty points over the past year, but now, if it accumulates only 10 points, it will be immediately put on the review board. Even a single serious and intentional violation can result in immediate expulsion. This is why detailed risk management by finance departments and public disclosure officers has become more important than ever. In the face of strengthening regulations in all directions, companies with low stock prices are considering stock mergers to increase unit prices. However, unreasonable mergers without improving fundamentals can actually be toxic, and if the stock price does not reach par value even after the merger, it is still subject to exit requirements. In the end, it is impossible to avoid the tight network of exchanges with tricks or short-term stopgap measures. Above all, the key to maintaining listing is ‘preemptive risk management.’ Available financial resources must be inspected in line with the changed requirements, and the internal control system must be thoroughly reorganized to prevent omission of disclosure. Preparing a detailed 'management improvement plan' that can logically persuade the exchange and following an objective explanation process is the most certain survival solution for listed companies to survive in this unprecedented wind of exits.

(Shortcut) 2026-04-30T06:24:59.057Z https://www.daeryunlaw.com/en/broadcast/6183 Demand for understanding the US federal priority principle and QMSR and integrated legal risk management The dawn of regulatory science innovation in 2026 The Korean Ministry of Food and Drug Safety's allocation of 11.4 billion won in the budget for ‘Food and Drug Regulatory Science Innovation Support’ in 2026 means that the domestic AI-based medical device and digital therapeutic device (DTx) industry has been promoted to a national strategic export item. This large-scale budget investment goes beyond simple financial support and contains a strong policy will to standardize the technical effectiveness of domestic companies in line with international legal standards. This heralds a major transformation of the industry. Now, companies must design a sophisticated legal roadmap that takes into account everything from the early stages of technology development to final licensing and health insurance fee registration. This will soon become a core competency directly related to survival in the global market. Regulatory response based on technical understanding Licensing of digital healthcare devices is fundamentally different from existing hardware-centered medical device screening. The process of proving the effectiveness of the algorithm and the continuous reliability of the data is essential. Through my expertise as a pharmacist, practical experience at a global pharmaceutical company, and public service experience at the Ministry of Health and Welfare and the Health Insurance Review and Assessment Service, I have experienced the entire process of innovative technology going through to settle in the market. Regulatory authorities focus on evaluating how the technology ensures ‘predictable safety’ within the current legal system rather than the innovation itself. Ultimately, the core of regulatory science is to explain complex scientific evidence in the language of laws and norms that authorities can accept. Translating technology into the language of law determines the success or failure of licensing. Legal seat belt for entering the U.S. market. The legal concept that companies targeting the U.S. market must understand is the principle of ‘Federal Preemption.’ The U.S. Supreme Court's Riegel v. Medtronic, Inc (2008) case presents important implications for medical device companies. At the time, the court ruled that patients can be restricted from filing product liability lawsuits based on state law for medical devices that have passed the U.S. Food and Drug Administration's (FDA) premarket approval (PMA) process. This shows that FDA approval goes beyond simple market entry permission and can be a legal shield that protects companies from the risk of large-scale civil litigation in the United States. Therefore, faithfully complying with the Quality System Regulation (QMSR), which will be fully implemented from 2026, is both a regulatory response and at the same time the strongest litigation defense strategy. Expansion of cyber security and product liability With the proliferation of software-based medical devices, security defects have emerged as a new product liability issue. Global regulatory authorities and courts tend to interpret security flaws in software medical devices not as simple technical errors but as serious manufacturing errors directly related to patient life. The FDA mandates the submission of a software bill of materials (SBOM) and the establishment of a post-security patch process in the QMSR system. If this is neglected, a chain of legal risks can arise that can lead to not only license cancellation but also violations of the False Claims Act. Companies must apply ‘Security by Design’ from the development stage. At the same time, a documentation system must be established to legally prove the design and management process. Transparency demands and administrative response strategies In Korea, the HIRA is closely examining expenditure reports through advanced data analysis techniques. The level of transparency demanded by companies is continuously increasing. Looking back at past precedents related to the Ministry of Health and Welfare's decision to reduce drug prices or invalidate public notices, companies that failed to logically prove the ‘academic justification’ for providing economic benefits in the early stages of administrative investigations suffered a huge management blow. In particular, digital healthcare companies must integrate and manage data to prevent marketing activities from being mistaken for rebates. When expanding overseas, global compliance standards must be established that simultaneously meet Korea's expenditure report system and the U.S. Physician Payments Sunshine Act. Integrated risk management creates leading companies. The success of the AI ​​and digital healthcare industries is not achieved through technological innovation alone. It must be accompanied by a solid legal defense mechanism to protect the technology and make it sustainable. Regulatory response, quality management, cybersecurity, and transparency should not be separate tasks but integrated into one strategy. We hope that the domestic medical device industry will lead global standards through preemptive regulatory strategies and institutional preparations commensurate with technological innovation.[View full article] “AI medical devices and DTx, legal response capabilities determine global survival” (Shortcut) 2026-05-13T12:58:29.203Z https://www.daeryunlaw.com/en/broadcast/6182 A daycare teacher who was handed over to the prosecution for excessive disciplinary action against a child was acquitted. According to the legal community on the 18th, the Chuncheon District Prosecutors' Office decided not to indict Ms. A, a woman in her 30s who was sent on the 26th of last month for violating the Special Act on the Punishment of Child Abuse Crimes. In November of last year, Ms. A subdued a student who was fighting with a friend by hugging his torso and urinating. He was accused of committing child abuse, such as ignoring the child's words. The parents filed a complaint, saying that Mr. A was excessive in disciplining the child and that even though the child urinated on his clothes, he did not immediately change his clothes and made him apologize first, thereby causing shame. Mr. A denied the charges. The child was said to have been disciplining the child to prevent this, as he was behaving aggressively, such as badmouthing other friends and trying to throw toys at him. In addition, the child urinated. It seemed like he was trying to avoid a difficult situation with an excuse, so he insisted that he apologize first and then change his clothes. In addition, he emphasized that the discipline was very brief and that if it had been an excessive action that crossed the line, fellow teachers around him would have stopped him immediately. The prosecution believed that Mr. A's charges were not recognized. The prosecution said, "It cannot be said that it was the right attitude to control the child victim in the name of discipline and fail to immediately change his clothes, but the need for discipline for the child at the time was not recognized." He said, "The suspect's claim is credible when we see that the victim child also tried to avoid the disciplinary situation by saying 'I will pee' rather than complaining that he wanted to go to the bathroom." He continued, "The suspect did not commit any other acts of abuse, and there is also a precedent that acts similar to the relevant disciplinary law do not constitute abuse. After the situation was over, follow-up measures were clearly taken, such as calming the child down for a nap and informing the parents of the situation." He added. Lee Ji-yeon, a lawyer at Daeryun Law Firm who represented Mr. A, explained, "Even if it is inevitable to control a child with aggressive tendencies and prevent him or her from moving, it cannot be considered abuse if there is no intention to harass him." He added, "Mr. A's actions were also an inevitable measure for proper discipline, and he was able to be acquitted by carefully proving the follow-up measures after the situation ended." #IncidentAccident #Discipline #Daycare teacher #Childabuse #Not guilty Shin Min-ji (sourminjee@ikbc.co.kr)[View full article] Controversy over 'suppressing a child and delaying urination'...

At first glance, it may seem like an obvious right, but there is a good reason why this question went all the way to the Supreme Court. As the 'reform' market, which involves transforming luxury bags into wallets or other forms, has grown, brand companies have taken legal action, claiming trademark infringement. Last February, the Supreme Court overturned the original ruling in a trademark infringement lawsuit filed by Louis Vuitton against a reformer and sent the case back to the Patent Court. Previously, the first and second trials acknowledged liability for damages, saying that the act of producing reformed products using Louis Vuitton bag fabric constituted trademark infringement. The court cited the fact that refurbished products are 'products' with independent exchange value, such as those traded in the second-hand market, and that there is a possibility that consumers may mistake the source for a Louis Vuitton product. However, the Supreme Court made a different decision. The Supreme Court ruled that if the owner of a luxury bag requested remodeling for personal use, and the repairer transformed and processed it and returned it to the owner, it did not constitute “use of a trademark” under the Trademark Act and therefore did not constitute infringement of trademark rights. Since the core function of trademark rights is to prevent consumers from being confused about the source of the product, if the reformed product is not distributed in the market and is limited to personal use, it is difficult to say that that function has been infringed. In particular, it has been made clear that the burden of proof for these ‘special circumstances’ lies with the trademark owner claiming trademark infringement. It is difficult to recognize infringement simply by the fact that a product with a trademark has been modified, and the brand company must directly collect and prove in detail whether the reformed product was actually produced and distributed like a commercial product in the market. Considering the purpose of this ruling, the reform industry in the future must make it clear that the service it provides is ‘repair and modification for personal use.’ Keeping a record of the fact that the design or production method was decided based on the customer's request also helps prevent disputes. In addition, displaying reformed products like products or promoting them in the form of sale must be approached cautiously as there is a risk of dispute. Meanwhile, brand companies responsible for proving trademark infringement must specifically check and secure evidence to determine whether reformed products are repeatedly produced in a certain form beyond simple repair and whether the compensation received by the reforming industry exceeds the normal repair cost. Based on this, it is necessary to more selectively inspect and design the company's response strategy. At this time, rather than comprehensively restricting the entire reform market, it is more realistic to focus response capabilities on cases where reformed products are at risk of being mistaken for official products or are distributed like products through online platforms. In particular, some global luxury brands have already operated official repair centers or certification services and have directly managed parts and repair processes. In the future, the scope of allowable repairs and modifications must be made clearer, and separate management standards must be established for areas that may cause consumer misunderstanding during the online and offline distribution process. In the end, trademark protection is a matter of proactive management, not post-dispute response. Here, as the scope of the reform service, judgment of marketability, use of trademark, etc. are areas that involve legal judgment, it is most important to check the standards and prepare a response strategy through expert advice from the early stage. As the luxury goods and reform markets grow, the structure of disputes becomes more complex. This is why a management system established in advance is ahead of litigation.[View full article] Luxury product ‘reform’ debate...

This partnership was promoted to help companies from both countries advance overseas and improve the quality of global comprehensive legal services. Tahota Law Firm, which opened in 2000, is currently one of the largest law firms in China with over 4,000 lawyers. Under the banner of ‘connecting the world with China at the center,’ it is a place with global influence by establishing a network in 36 major hubs around the world, including Washington, D.C., Sydney, Australia, and Bangkok, Thailand. At the agreement ceremony held at Daeryun’s main office in Yeouido, Seoul on the 12th, CEO Dong-il Park, director Ye-seom Lee, attorney Gyeong-won Yoon, and attorney Jong-soo Shin attended the agreement ceremony held at Daeryun’s main office in Yeouido, Seoul on the 12th. On the Tahota side, a large number of key executives, including Jeong Soo-tae, head of law firm headquarters (currently vice-president of the Chinese Bar Association), Harbin representative Jang Chun-kwang, and Chongqing representative Goh Liang, attended and showed great interest in the Korean market. Starting with this agreement, the two companies plan to closely cooperate in various fields such as corporate legal advice and investment/M&A, joint performance of international disputes and cross-border litigation, intellectual property protection, visas and immigration. In particular, Daeryun decided to help Tahota Law Firm successfully advance into the Korean market based on the practical know-how it has accumulated so far, while sharing its expertise through human exchanges and joint seminars. Commenting on this agreement, Soo-Tae Jeong, CEO of Tahota Headquarters, said, "As the old Chinese saying goes, 'As long as you are far away, you are like neighbors,' we are happy to be able to plan the future with Daeryun, which has established a solid presence in Korea," and expressed its commitment to providing professional cross-border legal services. Daeryun Park said. The CEO also emphasized, "The fact that China's top law firm chose Daeryun as a partner is a result of recognition of our expertise and potential," and added, "Using this agreement as a stepping stone, we will go beyond Asia and become a global comprehensive law firm." Meanwhile, Daeryun has already established close partnerships with other large law firms in China such as Yingke and Hengdu, and is steadily expanding its partnerships in the United States, Japan, and Vietnam, providing legal solutions specialized for global business.

The Ulsan District Court was the plaintiff in a lawsuit filed by A, a man in his 60s, against the Korea Workers’ Compensation and Welfare Service in January to cancel the disability rating decision. A favorable decision was made. Mr. A suffered a fall accident while working in 2006 and was diagnosed with spinal cord damage and paralysis of the lower extremities. Afterwards, in 2008, he was judged to have a disability level 2, and the same grade was maintained during a re-examination six years later in 2014. The problem arose seven years later when Mr. A was once again readjusted to a disability grade. This is because the corporation canceled the existing disability level of level 2 and downgraded it to level 3. The corporation took issue with the fact that Mr. A passed the driver's license aptitude test after being reexamined in 2014, drove on his own, and even got a job for a certain period of time. This is because the level 2 decision, which means 100% labor loss rate, is inappropriate because the worker is actually able to work. In response, Mr. A protested, saying that the corporation canceled the existing disposition without any legal basis. In addition, an administrative lawsuit was filed, arguing that since the patient still requires frequent nursing care, the grade should be maintained at level 2 instead of level 3. The court ruled in Mr. A's favor. First, the court explained, “If there is a defect in the administrative act, it can be canceled even if there is no separate legal basis.” However, “the passing of the driver's license aptitude test and temporary employment presented by the defendant are all circumstances that occurred after the disposition of the disability grade, so it is difficult to acknowledge that Mr. He added, “There is no objective data to show that the decision on the state of disability at the time of the initial decision and trial was wrong.” Attorney Hwang Gyu-hwa of Daeryun Law Firm, who represented Mr. A, said, “According to the Supreme Court, the reason for the cancellation of an administrative action refers to a defect that existed at the time the relevant disposition was made.” explained.

The Court Member TF has been staffed with people with experience working at the Constitutional Court who are familiar with the Constitutional Court's unique hearing method and legal principles, and experts with extensive experience in handling constitutional appeal cases. The plan is not to simply gather people from the Constitutional Court, but to dig into the unconstitutionality of the ruling from various angles by organically combining the practical sense of veterans who were judges and prosecutors. The team leader is Cho Sang-soo (18th class of the Judicial Research and Training Institute), who has accumulated extensive experience in leading investigations by holding major positions such as the Chief Prosecutor of the Seoul High Prosecutors' Office and the Deputy Chief Prosecutor of the Suncheon Branch of the Gwangju District Prosecutors' Office. Attorney Cho plans to lead the overall constitutional appeal process based on his experience working at the Constitutional Research Center of the Constitutional Court. Attorney Tae-seung Lee (26th class of the Training Institute) was appointed as the deputy team leader in charge of the TF's practical strategy. Attorney Lee served as the head of the Masan branch of the Changwon District Prosecutors' Office and as a constitutional researcher at the Constitutional Court, and is evaluated as having both high-level investigative command capabilities and constitutional insight. Attorney Lee Jun-hee (28th class of the Training Institute), who was a judge, also joined. Attorney Lee, who was dispatched to the Constitutional Court while working at the Seoul High Court and learned related work, plans to focus his core competencies on identifying unconstitutional elements of existing rulings and reflecting them in litigation strategies. In addition, Jeon Hyo-cheol (6 cases), Kim Young-min (8 cases), Kim Dong-jin (9 cases), and Jeong Jun-ki (9 cases), who have experience working at the Constitutional Court and handling related cases, were also named to the task force. Daeryun is expected to demonstrate professional response capabilities encompassing the entire court adjudication process, from initial factual analysis to derivation of constitutional issues. The TF collaborates with professional groups (criminal, civil, and administrative) within the corporation to analyze existing litigation records from various angles. We plan to focus on finding constitutional issues overlooked during the trial and pointing out contradictions in the facts to prove the unconstitutionality of the ruling. In particular, a ‘one-stop rapid response system’ will be operated in line with the characteristics of the system, which requires claims to be filed within 30 days from the date of trial confirmation. As soon as the ruling is received, a former constitutional researcher will conduct an initial review to determine whether it is unconstitutional, and a dedicated team will immediately be formed to begin drafting a request for judgment. The key is to reduce unnecessary administrative procedures and maximize legal perfection within a short period of 30 days. Kim Kuk-il, CEO of Daeryun Management, said, “As the introduction of the court system is a significant change in the judicial system and an opportunity for new rights relief, the assistance of experts familiar with the practice of the Constitutional Court is essential.” He added, “Based on the expertise of the newly launched TF, we will do our best to completely resolve the injustice of our clients and protect their rights.” Reporter Jeong Cheol-wook[View full article] Seoul Shinmun - Daeryun Law Firm launches ‘Court Officer Response TF’ in line with ‘Three Judicial Reform Acts’ (Go here) Aju Economic Daily - [Law Firm Lounge] Daeryun launches 'Tribunal Dedicated Task Force' in line with the three judicial laws (Go here) Gyeonggi Ilbo - Daeryun Law Firm launches ‘Court Judge Response TF’… Forward deployment of experts from the Constitutional Court (Go here) 2026-05-12T22:18:04.288Z https://www.daeryunlaw.com/en/broadcast/6177 Dispute over method of calculating production quantity... “It is difficult to determine an act of deception.” Police: “There is a lack of objective evidence to prove collusion and fraud.” It was suspected that people in business relationships conspired to swindle a large amount of transaction money by manipulating transaction statements and falsely claiming warehouse rent, but the charges were dropped as a result of the police investigation. In January, the Busan Police Agency decided not to forward five people, including Mr. A, who was suspected of violating the Act on the Aggravated Punishment of Specific Economic Crimes (fraud). Mr. A, who was an executive, was accused of conspiring with partner company officials for about five years starting in 2020 to submit transaction statements that inflated the coil production quantity to the parts company, and defrauding about 3.1 billion won by overcharging warehouse rent and management costs. They completely denied the charges. The production quantity cannot be judged on a single basis as it is produced by mixing several product numbers, and since raw materials were purchased and used separately from outside in addition to the coils supplied, a simple comparison cannot determine overestimation. In addition, it was explained that warehouse costs have been customarily settled at an amount that includes not only rent but also incidental costs such as forklift costs and management fees. The police decided not to forward the case. This is because it is difficult to prove the deceptive actions of Mr. A and others with only the submitted data. The police explained, “Although the number of parts that can be produced per 1 kg of coil is fixed, we took into account the fact that there are multiple parts instead of one, the unit price per part changes every year, and the fact that the number of products sold by the auto parts manufacturer is greater than the number of parts actually received from partner companies.” Attorney Kim Young-heum of Daeryun Law Firm, which represented the suspects, said, “This incident occurred during a transaction process in which dozens of practitioners participated over a period of five years, and as claimed by the complainant, He pointed out, “Continuing a large-scale fraud secretly for a long period of time is close to impossible in terms of logistics and accounting systems.” He added, “The intention of deception cannot be determined simply by comparing the raw material supply and parts production, and it is difficult to meet the requirements for criminal fraud, especially considering the settlement process approved by the final approval authority and the external raw material supply and demand situation.” Reporter Kim Hee-guk kukie@kookje.co.kr[View full article] Suspicion of inflating coil quantity and rent… 3 billion won special price fraud ‘not sent’ (link) 2026-05-13T12:38:05.016Z https://www.daeryunlaw.com/en/broadcast/6174 2019year PF Legal battle underway over loan advisory fees “Advisory area Securities company share, In most cases, refund claims are not established.”Revenue impact is limited…Internal control and contingent liability management are tasks Meritz Securities has passed. 2019Real estate project financing executed in 2018(PF) Development company VC Babylon was involved in the financial advisory fee received during the loan process. ‘Request for refund of unjust enrichment’ A lawsuit is in progress..

The Chuncheon District Prosecutors' Office decided not to indict Mr. A, a man in his 20s, who was suspected of aiding and abetting a violation of the Narcotic Drugs Control Act in January due to insufficient evidence. Mr. A used the sleep-inducing drug Stilnox (zolpidem) on two occasions in 2019 and 2020. He was accused of receiving a prescription and providing it to Mr. B, a senior at pharmacy school. At the time of the incident, Mr. A, who was a student at pharmacy school, was working part-time at a pharmacy run by Mr. B. It was investigated that he received this request and handed over the prescription. At the time, Mr. B is known to have requested from Mr. A, “The drug inventory is out of sync due to poor management, so if you receive a prescription, you can match the computerized dispensing details with the actual drug quantity.” However, Mr. B used the prescription handed over by Mr. A and others. It was revealed that he had made a false report by entering false information into the integrated narcotic drug management system as if he had normally dispensed the medicine to a patient. As a result, Mr. B was ultimately sent to trial on charges of illegally possessing more than 80,000 tablets of the drug over a period of 5 years for the purpose of direct administration. Mr. A denied the charges. As a student with insufficient practical experience at a pharmacy, he refused the request of Mr. B, who had considerable influence over current students through support for club activities and recruitment of part-time workers. It was difficult. In addition, he claimed that he only knew that it was for the purpose of 'filling the inventory' and had no knowledge that Mr. B would administer the drug or illegally possess it for a purpose other than that purpose. The prosecution found that Mr. A was not guilty. The prosecution said, "Even looking at the content of the messenger conversation, there are no circumstances found to suggest that Mr. A knew that Mr. The reason for the non-indictment was revealed. Attorney Lee Il-hyung of Daeryun Law Firm, who represented Mr. A, said, "By carefully analyzing the entire mobile messenger conversation history, we presented as objective evidence the circumstances in which the client had no knowledge of the purpose of the senior's crime and rather tried to turn it down around the corner. We achieved a good result by logically explaining the specific hierarchical relationship that made it difficult to refuse the senior's request and proving that there was no intention of aiding and abetting." #Sleep inducer #Not guilty. #Pharmacy student #Prescription #Accident Shin Min-ji (sourminjee@ikbc.co.kr)[View full article] Pharmacy student not prosecuted for giving 'narcotic' prescription to senior at the request of "I need to replenish inventory"...

From the nomination stage to after the election, the judicial risk management capabilities of candidates and election camps have emerged as a key election task. Daeryun Law Firm announced on the 12th that it launched a task force (TF) dedicated to responding to the 9th national simultaneous local elections last month. It is a structure in which local lawyers from major branch offices across the country and the headquarters' Digital Forensics Center cooperate with attorney In-won Kim. According to statistics from the Supreme Prosecutors' Office, the number of election offenders booked for violations of the Public Official Election Act during the 8th local election amounted to approximately 3,790. In this election, even fake news that exploited AI deepfake emerged as a new threat factor. Regarding the background of the launch of the task force, Attorney Kim explained, "The Public Official Election Act has detailed regulations, so even a simple mistake can be evaluated as an illegal act. The law applies even before candidate registration, and nomination screening and preliminary candidate activities are also subject to legal discipline." In actual practice, there are cases where statements of support for a specific individual or group or posting of online promotional material have been caught as part of a pre-election campaign, or errors in self-introduction materials have led to the publication of false facts. He emphasized, “Early legal analysis and evidence preservation are the key to responding to cases,” and “All public actions in the early stages of an election must undergo prior legal review.” The most frequently occurring illegal acts in the campaign are pre-election campaigning, donations, and publishing false information. SNS postings or sending text messages are often classified as pre-election campaigns. Attorney Kim said, “The law judges actions based on the impact they had on voters rather than the actor’s intention.” Money management also requires caution. If the purpose of use is unclear or a third party bears the costs, it may be judged as illegal political funds. All expenditures must be managed by the person in charge of accounting and documentary evidence must be kept. When an unexpected situation such as a National Election Commission crackdown or search and seizure occurs, the presence and scope of a warrant must be checked and any violations of procedures must be recorded. Attorney Kim said, “The principle is that all comments and data submissions are made after consulting with a lawyer,” and “The response in the first few hours determines the direction and outcome of the subsequent investigation.” In this election, digital election crimes using AI deepfake are also a major variable. False videos, synthetic voices, etc. can spread in a short period of time and lead to defamation and election interference. Attorney Kim said, “We must request deletion as soon as damage occurs, secure the distribution route, and verify whether it has been manipulated using forensic technology.” The TF has a system in place to secure evidence in cooperation with the corporation's own forensic team. Attorney Kim In-won said, "Elections are a legal and moral process that goes beyond competition and gains the public's trust," and suggested, "The most powerful strategy will be to conduct a transparent and fair campaign within the bounds of the law." He added, “We will do our best to make this local election an exemplary election based on legal expertise and fairness.” Reporter Hwang Jeong-won (garden@sidae.com)[View full article] Attorney Kim In-won, “Local election judicial risk, early legal response is essential” (link) 2026-05-06T08:22:21.728Z https://www.daeryunlaw.com/en/broadcast/6165 The Supreme Court ruled that if re-discipline was imposed after the disciplinary action was canceled due to a procedural defect, the action was legal even if the statute of limitations for disciplinary action had passed from the time of the misconduct. According to the legal community on the 11th, the Supreme Court dismissed the plaintiff's claim and confirmed the union's victory in the appeal of the lawsuit for confirmation of invalidity of honesty filed by Mr. B, an audit employee of Union A (hereinafter referred to as the union), against the union in January. This case dates back to 2015. The union at the time Mr. B, who was an employee in the audit office, was accused of deliberately omitting or concealing the facts of misconduct, such as embezzlement, by a fellow employee. Accordingly, the union dismissed Mr. B for disciplinary action in 2020, but Mr. B objected and filed a lawsuit, and in February 2023, the Supreme Court ruled that the disciplinary dismissal was invalid. Accordingly, the union reinstated Mr. A and lowered the level of disciplinary action, imposing a 'six months of suspension' (second disciplinary action). However, this time, the Local Labor Relations Commission canceled it due to procedural defects. In the end, the union corrected the procedural shortcomings and issued another six-month suspension (3rd disciplinary action) in November 2023. In response, Mr. B filed another lawsuit, saying, “Disciplinary action in 2023 for misconduct in 2015 would have exceeded the statute of limitations for disciplinary action, which is usually 5 years.” The first trial court ruled in Mr. B’s favor. The court ruled that "since a disciplinary decision was requested 5 years after the date on which the cause for disciplinary action occurred, the relevant disposition was invalid due to a defect in which the statute of limitations for disciplinary action had expired." However, the second trial court's judgment was different. The appellate court ruled, "The defendant union's disciplinary regulations (Article 6, Paragraph 4) clearly state that 'when a disciplinary action is invalidated or revoked by the court or the Labor Relations Commission, a disciplinary decision may be made again despite the statute of limitations.'" He stated, “The disposition of the case is in the nature of a retrial after the previous disciplinary action was canceled by the decision of the Labor Relations Commission, so it cannot be considered to have occurred after the statute of limitations for disciplinary action has expired.” He continued, “While in charge of audit work, the plaintiff made a large financial transaction with the offending party, and based on this, he condoned the fact of embezzlement, causing damage to the union.” He added, “Considering that the level of disciplinary action was reduced from the initial dismissal to six months of suspension, it is difficult to view the defendant’s disposition as an abuse of discretion.” It was added. The Supreme Court also dismissed the plaintiff's appeal, believing that the lower court's judgment was justified. Attorney Ik-cheon Cho of Daeryun Law Firm, who represented the union, said, "The first trial pointed out that the statute of limitations had expired, but this case is a 're-disciplinary' procedure that occurred as the previous disciplinary action was invalidated or canceled, so the statute of limitations does not apply," he said. He added, "This is not a request for a new disciplinary decision, but a 'modification' of the legally requested resolution." “It was proven and there was a good result,” he added. #Supreme Court #Disciplinary action #Statute of limitations #Incidence and accident Shin Min-ji (sourminjee@ikbc.co.kr)[View full article] ‘Dismissal → Reinstatement → Re-discipline’... ‘Three disciplinary actions’ over a 10-year period, the Supreme Court’s management finally wins (Go to the link) 2026-05-13T07:49:24.093Z https://www.daeryunlaw.com/en/broadcast/6164 A business owner who was put on trial for failing to pay severance pay to employees was acquitted at the appeals court. According to the legal community on the 10th, the 3-3 Criminal Division of the Changwon District Court overturned the original trial ruling that sentenced A, a man in his 40s, who was indicted for violating the Labor Standards Act in January, to a fine of 1 million won in the appeal trial and declared him not guilty. Mr. A paid wages and severance pay to Mr. B, a trainer who quit while working at the gym he ran last year. He was accused of failing to pay within the due date. During the trial, Mr. A argued that he was not an employee under the Labor Standards Act because he had signed a freelance contract with Mr. B rather than an employment contract. Even if he was recognized as an employee, he denied intentionality, saying he was not aware of the obligation to pay because there was no precedent for paying severance pay to other trainers. The first trial court sentenced Mr. A to a fine. The court ruled, “Mr. B has been regularly paid allowances and fixed wages while working at a specific time zone agreed upon with the defendant,” and “this is equivalent to providing work in a subordinate relationship for the purpose of wages.” Mr. A, who was dissatisfied with the result, immediately appealed. At the appeal trial, Mr. A asserted that Mr. B had committed embezzlement before leaving the company and owed him an amount of money. Therefore, during the settlement process, it was determined that there was no money to be paid, and it was emphasized that there was no intention of non-payment. The second trial court declared the person not guilty. The appellate court said, "Mr. B left the company due to unpleasant circumstances and wrote a confirmation of payment in this regard. In this situation, we cannot rule out the possibility that the defendant misunderstood that he was not obligated to pay severance pay. At the time of writing the contract, there are no circumstances showing that Mr. B raised an objection to the statement, 'There is no severance pay settlement because he is not an employee,' or requested subscription to the four major insurance policies." Attorney Cho Ik-cheon of Daeryun Law Firm, who represented Mr. A, said, "Payment of wages, etc. He explained, “If there are grounds to dispute the existence of the obligation and there is a significant reason for non-payment, the intention to violate the Labor Standards Act cannot be recognized.” He explained, “Given the specific contractual relationship between the two and the circumstances at the time of leaving the company, Mr.[View full article] Business owner who failed to pay trainer wages found not guilty on appeal...

Former executives of the fishing community who were indicted for not returning documents related to their operation were found not guilty. The Jinju branch of the Changwon District Court acquitted two people, including former fishing village leader A, who was accused of embezzlement in January. They were expelled from the extraordinary general meeting of the fishing community in June 2022. Afterwards, they were asked to return related documents such as bankbooks, accounting ledgers, and meeting minutes necessary for the operation of the fishing village community, but they did not respond. The reason was that a legal dispute contesting the validity of the resolution of the extraordinary general meeting was ongoing at the time. Accordingly, the fishing community filed a complaint against them, claiming that their operations were disrupted due to not receiving the documents back. The court found them not guilty. The court said, “It is difficult to say that the defendants at the time had an intention to illegally acquire documents from the fishing village and dispose of them as their own.” At the same time, the court added, “In light of the fact that the defendants won a lawsuit to confirm the invalidity of the fishing village community while contesting the validity of the expulsion resolution, we decided that it is difficult to directly evaluate the act of keeping related documents in a situation where the legitimacy of the expulsion resolution was denied as embezzlement.” Attorney Lim Seok-pil of Daeryun Law Firm, who represented the two, said, “To establish a crime of embezzlement in business, a simple refusal to return is not enough. He explained, “The intention to illegally acquire property and dispose of it as if it were one’s own must be recognized,” adding, “If, as in this case, the expulsion decision itself is judged invalid in the appeals court, the court has made it clear that the act of keeping related documents cannot be considered embezzlement based on the intention to illegally acquire property.” Reporter Kim Hee-guk kukie@kookje.co.kr[View full article] Former executive who refused to return fishing village documents...

When a property for sale becomes scarce, you become anxious and it is easy to omit or postpone basic procedures such as checking a copy of the register or verifying ownership. In addition, there are many tenants who are unaware that the documents and precautions to check vary depending on the type of housing, such as multi-family, multi-generational, or officetel. Most lease fraud offenders prey on the impatience of these tenants. In reality, lease fraud, such as double contracts and falsified documents, is repeated every year. According to data from the Ministry of Land, Infrastructure and Transport, the cumulative number of victims of charter fraud reached 36,449 as of the end of January 2026. What is especially noteworthy is that multi-generational/multi-family housing and officetels account for approximately 68.2% of all damage types. Three out of four victims are under the age of 40, and they are concentrated in the youth. The multi-family houses and multi-family houses where the damage is concentrated have a similar appearance, but their legal structures are completely different. Since multi-generational housing is registered for each generation, there is a separate copy of the register for the room being contracted, so only the rights to the room in question need to be clearly considered. However, caution is needed as there are quite a few so-called ‘tin leases’ in which the deposit exceeds 70% of the sale price. On the other hand, multi-family housing has one owner for the entire building. For this reason, it is necessary to check the loans for the entire building and the rights of other tenants. This is because the total deposit of tenants who moved in before my deposit often exceeds the value of the building. If an auction proceeds in this situation, it is highly likely that it will be difficult to recover the full amount of the junior deposit. In fact, the Supreme Court and courts at various levels have recently ruled that when brokering a multi-family housing lease, a real estate agent has an obligation to accurately check the total amount of the senior tenant's deposit and explain it to the tenant. If this is neglected, liability for damages has been acknowledged. Therefore, a thorough preliminary inspection is the only way to prevent damage. Before signing a contract, it is necessary to compare the lessor's original ID card with the registered owner. When signing a contract with an agent, you should check the power of attorney and seal certificate more carefully. It is also a good idea to check in advance whether you can sign up for a deposit return guarantee. If the guarantee agency refuses to sign up, it is a strong signal that there is a problem with the rights to the property. Even before paying the balance, you must re-issue a copy of the register and make a final check to see if any liens, etc. have been added in the meantime. However, there is a limit to the ability of individuals to completely filter out increasingly sophisticated fraud methods. This is because issues such as whether the building ledger matches the register and the risk of seizure due to the landlord's tax delinquency are areas that individuals can easily miss. Therefore, it is safest to receive a legal review from an expert at the pre-contract stage. If damage occurs, a quick response is vital. Depending on the situation, you must immediately review possible legal means such as sending a certificate of contents, applying for a lease registration order, or filing a criminal complaint. This is because the possibility of recovering the deposit can vary greatly depending on the order and timing of response. As it is best to prevent lease fraud, minor doubts that arise during the contract process should not be overlooked lightly. In order to keep your precious deposit safe, it is more necessary than ever to carefully check and confirm the entire process of the contract.

According to the legal community on the 9th, the Ulsan Southern Police Station decided to not forward Mr. A, the director of an oriental medicine clinic, who was accused of violating the medical law and writing a false medical certificate in January. From 2024 to last year, Mr. A had car insurance for four patients who came to the hospital after suffering a traffic accident. He was suspected of issuing false medical certificates required for payment guarantee procedures. The insurance company filed a complaint, taking issue with the fact that actual treatment was not performed on the issuance date listed on some medical certificates. Mr. A denied the charges. It was claimed that the medical certificate in question was not written on the premise of a single treatment on the day of issuance, but was written based on previous treatment and treatment progress. At the same time, patients claimed that they continued to visit the hospital for treatment after the traffic accident and that the contents of the medical certificate were also based on medical records. Mr. A emphasized, "The issuance date written on the medical certificate indicates the time when documents to be submitted to the insurance company at the patient's request during the car insurance payment guarantee process were printed and sent. Just because there was no separate medical treatment on the day of issuance, it cannot be considered a medical certificate without examination." The police accepted Mr. A's claim. The fact that the date of issuance of the medical certificate does not match the date of actual medical treatment cannot be considered as a false medical certificate, nor can it be concluded that the contents of the medical certificate are inconsistent with actual medical practice when looking at the patients' existing medical records and treatment progress. Attorney Chae Young-jae of Daeryun Law Firm, who represented Mr. A, said, "Under medical law, a medical certificate is not a document written based on the premise of a medical examination at a single point in time. In this case, the content and progress of the actual medical practice should be viewed as the standard for judgment rather than the formal element of the date of issuance of the medical certificate.

The prosecution charged Mr. A with forgery of private documents, saying he had used the name of his unconscious father to prepare documents and withdraw deposits. Mr. A completely denied the charges. At the time, his father was unconscious and his mother had been managing his financial affairs, but he only visited a financial institution at his mother's request to raise money for hospital expenses. At the same time, Mr. A had withdrawn all the money at the time. He claimed that it was transferred to his mother's account and used for actual medical expenses. The court accepted Mr. A's claim and declared him not guilty. First, the court said, "In light of the fact that the cashier judged that there was no problem with the defendant and his mother accompanying him to a financial institution and withdrawing funds from the deceased's account, it is reasonable to assume that the employee was aware of the fact that the mother usually managed the father's account." It also said, "The defendant had the intention of forging private documents." It cannot be seen, and even if intent is recognized, it can be acknowledged that there was the deceased's presumptive consent to the act of preparing the withdrawal slip." Attorney Byeon Gwan-hoon of Daeryun Law Firm, who represented Mr. A, said, "Forgery of a private document means a case where a person who does not have the authority to write a document prepares a document by stealing another person's name. If there was the explicit or implied consent of the owner, or if it is presumed that the owner would have naturally approved it if he or she had known in light of all circumstances, it is considered forgery. “It is difficult to see,” he explained. In addition, Attorney Byun added, “We explained in detail the circumstances in which it is difficult to conclude that it was forgery by explaining the family’s property management practices, actual use of funds, and the process of document creation with objective data,” and added, “This is a ruling that the court acknowledged that criminal intent cannot be inferred from formal acts alone.”[View full article] Daughter in her 50s who withdrew money from her unconscious father's account... Not guilty of 'forgery of private documents' (Click here) 2026-05-12T05:54:01.040Z https://www.daeryunlaw.com/en/broadcast/6157 The long-held belief that ‘performance pay is not wages’ has been broken. Last January, the Supreme Court overturned the original ruling that denied the wage status of Target Incentive (TAI) in a lawsuit claiming severance pay filed by 15 people, including former Samsung Electronics employee A, and sent the case back to the Suwon High Court. Companies that have previously considered performance bonuses as 'discretionary company bonuses' are in a situation where they have to reexamine their severance pay calculation method from the beginning due to this ruling. The key criterion of the ruling was 'whether it can be assessed that workers' provision of work can control the achievement of the goal that is the standard for payment.' The target incentive recognized as wages was a fixed amount of money in which the base bonus amount, which was the basis for its calculation, was set according to a formula (120% of the monthly standard wage) determined in advance based on the standard salary for each worker, and the scale of payment was determined in advance to some extent, and the payment amount was determined according to the degree of implementation of tasks for each business unit (30%) and the degree of financial performance achievement (70%). The Supreme Court considered the structure of this target incentive Target incentives were interpreted as wages because they were considered closer to the ex post settlement of labor performance rather than the ex post distribution of management performance. Although the sales indicator (30%) of financial performance achievement is influenced by non-labor factors, sales in a professionally specialized and advanced organization such as Samsung Electronics are the result of the intensive provision of labor by workers in the relevant area, and it is believed that the achievement of sales goals can be controlled through labor provision. On the other hand, judgments about performance incentives (OPI) were different. The performance incentive is calculated as the base amount of 20% of each business division's EVA (profit after tax operating profit minus capital costs, etc.) multiplied by the payment rate calculated based on each worker's rank or performance. However, the amount of EVA, which is the basis for calculating performance incentives, fluctuates significantly depending on exchange rates, raw material prices, capital costs, etc. In other words, the occurrence and scale of EVA are the result of a combination of other factors, such as the size of equity or debt capital, the size of expenditures, market conditions, and management judgment, in addition to workers' provision of labor. It was believed that other factors that are not closely related to workers' provision of labor and are difficult for workers to control have a greater impact. Based on this, the Supreme Court interpreted that performance incentives are not wages, considering that they are not paid in return for work but rather a distribution or sharing of profits resulting from management performance. Although this Supreme Court ruling does not present new legal principles regarding the determination of wage status, it is meaningful in that it presents more specific criteria for judging whether a company's performance incentive system constitutes wages. This appears to be an opportunity to go beyond simply judging the compensation system within Samsung Electronics and to reexamine the overall performance bonus system of our company. Until now, many companies have understood performance bonuses not as wages but as compensation for management performance. However, in the future, it has become clearer that performance bonuses can be legally evaluated as ‘wage’ depending on the payment standards and calculation structure. For workers, this means the possibility of expanding the scope of calculation of various statutory allowances such as severance pay and overtime and night allowances, and for companies, it means that there is an increased need to reexamine compensation system design and labor cost management strategies more precisely. In particular, if the payment structure of performance bonuses is closely linked to the provision of work and the scale of payment is predictable to a certain extent in advance, the possibility of it being evaluated as wages may increase regardless of the name. Conversely, in cases where the nature of distribution of management results or profit sharing is strong, there is room for denial of the nature of wages. Ultimately, it is highly likely that the core of future disputes will be the actual nature and payment structure of performance bonuses. In order to prepare for these changes, companies need to check the actual legal nature of their performance bonus system. It is important to comprehensively review the payment standards, calculation method, and certainty of payment for performance bonuses to ensure consistency with related regulations such as employment rules, compensation regulations, and employment contracts. At the same time, workers also need to accurately understand the structure and legal meaning of the performance-based pay system, and be clearly aware of how their wages are structured and what rights they have accordingly. In the end, this ruling can be said to be a case that once again confirms that the substance and structure of the system, rather than the name 'performance-based pay' itself, are the standards for legal judgment. In the future, it is highly likely that a company's compensation system will go beyond the realm of simple personnel and management strategies and become the subject of labor law risk management. Contemplating how to design and operate a performance compensation system has now become an important task for both companies and workers.

According to the legal community on the 5th, the Daegu District Court ruled in favor of the plaintiff in a lawsuit filed by teenager A against the superintendent of the Gyeongsangbuk-do Gimcheon Office of Education in December last year to cancel the school violence disciplinary action. In 2024, A was accused of making sexually humiliating remarks to a student in his class and pinching his body. He was referred to the School Violence Measures Review Committee for his actions. The committee that reviewed the case ordered A to complete five hours of special education and transferred schools. A protested, saying that this disciplinary action was overly harsh. He was a close friend of the victim, and it was said that the incident occurred during a playful conversation between peers and there was no intention to harass him. He also filed a lawsuit asking the court to cancel the transfer, saying he had asked for forgiveness from the victim. The Office of Education immediately refuted the decision. This is because the level of A's words and actions is too high to be dismissed as a simple joke. They also argued that a school transfer was inevitable because the situation required complete separation between the victim and A. The court ruled in A's favor. The court said, "The review committee determined that there was no degree of reflection or reconciliation by the plaintiff, but considering that the victim student signed an agreement, the committee's judgment appears to be inappropriate. The plaintiff has never engaged in sexually problematic behavior other than this incident, and considering his usual relationship with the victim student, it is difficult to conclude that there is no possibility of leading the plaintiff." He added, "Even if a lighter measure than a transfer is taken, it appears that education and guidance for the plaintiff can be achieved." The disposition was canceled. Lawyer Noh Gyeong-guk of Daeryun Law Firm, who represented A, explained, "According to the School Violence Prevention Act, measures against the offending student are decided based on a comprehensive judgment of the offending student's degree of remorse and the possibility of leading the way. We were able to receive a good result by emphasizing that a complete reconciliation with the victim student was achieved and that A had a good possibility of leading the way."

According to the legal community on the 11th, Judge Dong-Hwan Choi of the 6th Criminal Division of the Goyang Branch of the Uijeongbu District Court recently found Mr. A, in his 40s, not guilty on charges of violating the Special Act on Traffic Accidents (injury). Previously, Mr. A was a pedestrian crossing the road while driving a motorcycle on a one-way, two-lane road in Paju City in 2024. He was handed over to trial on charges of hitting Mr. B. At that time, Mr. B, a pedestrian who was hit by Mr. A's motorcycle, suffered serious injuries and was taken to the hospital. The prosecution filed an indictment on the grounds that 'Mr. A caused the accident by neglecting his duty to look ahead.' During the trial, Mr. A denied the charge, saying, 'At the time of the accident, it was around sunset with rain, and it was impossible to recognize Mr. B, who was jaywalking, due to the headlights of the opposite vehicle making it difficult to secure visibility.' The court accepted Mr. A's claim. The court said, “Considering that there was no crosswalk near the accident site, a number of vehicles were crossing at high speeds, and that it was around sunset when it was raining and the vehicles were driving with their headlights on, it would have been difficult for the defendant to predict that there would be someone jaywalking.” He continued, “The defendant was driving normally along two lanes, the victim was wearing a black umbrella, and the headlights obscured some of the visibility.” “In light of the possibility of obstruction, it appears that even if the defendant had fulfilled his duty to look ahead, it would have been difficult to foresee the unexpected entry of a pedestrian or avoid a collision,” the ruling said. Attorney Choi Seong-ho of Daeryun Law Firm, who represented Mr. A, said, “This ruling makes it clear that a driver cannot be held criminally liable based solely on the outcome of a traffic accident,” adding, “Especially in the case of an accident involving jaywalking, there is no specific proof of foreseeability and avoidance.” “This is an example that reaffirms that this must be done first.” Reporter Shin Jin-wook jwshin@kyeonggi.com Reporter Bin Lee-kyung beekyy@kyeonggi.com[View full article] Motorcyclist in his 40s found not guilty for hitting and seriously injuring a jaywalking pedestrian (link) 2026-05-14T04:48:19.845Z https://www.daeryunlaw.com/en/broadcast/6153 A driver who injured a child riding a bicycle while driving a vehicle in a children's protection zone was acquitted of charges. According to the legal community on the 4th, the Daegu District Prosecutors' Office decided not to indict Mr. A, a man in his 50s, who was sent in January on charges of violating the Act on the Aggravated Punishment, etc. of Specific Crimes (Child Protection Zone Deficiency). Mr. A was driving a car in a children's protection zone in Suseong-gu, Daegu in August last year. He was accused of colliding with and injuring Person B, who was passing through an intersection on a bicycle. Group B claimed that Mr. A caused the accident by neglecting his duty to drive safely in a child protection zone. Mr. A completely denied the charges. He protested, saying, “At the time, I was traveling at a speed of 15 km/h, which is well below the speed limit of 30 km/h in the child protection zone,” and “There was no driver negligence because the bicycle rushed at 40 km/h and hit me.” The prosecution accepted Mr. A’s argument. Although it is acknowledged that a traffic accident occurred in a children's protection zone and caused injuries, it is difficult to say that there was negligence, such as a violation of the duty of care on the job, as the suspect fulfilled his duty of safe driving by following the speed limit and driving slowly. The prosecution explained the reason for non-indictment by saying, "Even if the driver recognized the danger from the moment the victim came into the driver's field of vision and braked hard, it was analyzed that it was physically impossible to avoid this accident." Attorney Hong Seung-pyo of Daeryun Law Firm, who represented Mr. A, said “For the so-called ‘Minsik Law (Article 5-13 of the Special Price Law)’ to be established, there must be not only a violation of the driver’s duty of care, but also the possibility of foreseeing and avoiding an accident,” he said. “We were able to achieve a good result by proving that it was a force majeure situation in which the victim jumped out of the blind spot at high speed and could not avoid the accident.” #Accident #Children’s protection zone #Not guilty #Bicycle Shin Min-ji (sourminjee@ikbc.co.kr)[View full article] The driver who collided with a child riding a bicycle in a children's protection zone was not indicted... why?

With large-scale customs duty refund litigation becoming visible following the U.S. Supreme Court's recent ruling that reciprocal tariffs are illegal, Daeryun Law Firm announced on the 3rd that it has launched the ‘Korea-US Joint Task Force on Tariff Refunds’ to support preemptive rights relief for domestic export companies. Currently, in the United States, movements surrounding judicial relief are in full swing, centered on large importers such as Costco and FedEx. In fact, it is known that there are about 1,800 direct lawsuits (Court Filing) cases filed with the U.S. Court of International Trade (CIT). As the lukewarm attitude and time-consuming administrative procedures of the U.S. Customs Service (CBP) cannot be trusted, the intention is to boldly skip them and obtain a clear refund order from the court. Domestic companies exporting to the United States are also paying close attention to preemptive legal action. In particular, about 6,000 Korean companies that exported under the ‘Delivery on Duty Paid (DDP)’ method, in which all taxes, including customs duties, are directly borne by the exporter, can request refunds directly from the US customs authorities, increasing the need for professional legal support for them. Accordingly, through this TF, Daeryun will solve the practical difficulties faced by DDP exporting companies and present a one-stop solution to ensure that tariffs that have lost their legal basis due to unconstitutional rulings can be quickly returned. This is our policy. First, we will immediately implement the optimal administrative relief roadmap for each company in line with the US Customs Service's 'Liquidation' schedule, which is a key watershed in the refund process. This is because settlement of the 10% universal tariff has already begun in the middle of last month, and settlement of the 15% reciprocal tariff is scheduled for June, so an agile response is essential. Accordingly, the TF plans to closely analyze each company's import customs clearance date and quickly carry out customized refund procedures required by period, from PSC before settlement to protest after settlement. It will also thoroughly block unexpected regulatory risks that arise during the refund process. In accordance with the recently mandated Electronic Customs Refund (ACH) regulations, we plan to provide a practical bypass so that domestic companies without US accounts can safely transfer refunds through the process of designating a third party agent. In particular, Daeryun plans to provide a ‘global one-stop’ service with SJKP, a local partner law firm in the US. Currently, SJKP is carrying out various cases related to customs duty refunds. Based on cooperation with SJKP, Daeryun eliminates duplicate fees by carrying out cases directly without an intermediary law firm, and provides close support for integrated legal services from pre-administrative procedures to CIT litigation at a reasonable cost. The TF is headed by attorney Kyung-won Yoon, a former chief prosecutor. In addition, attorney Shin Jong-soo, head of the Corporate Advisory Center of the Corporate Legal Group, and customs experts Myung Jae-ho and Kim Dae-ryun joined to enhance expertise. U.S. attorneys Daeryun Son Dong-hoo and Won Jeong-yeon and SJKP U.S. attorneys Tal Hirschbuck, Bryce Robbins, and James Manny will also participate in the task force, reviewing strategies necessary for direct litigation in the International Trade Court and closely analyzing regulatory risks. Daeryun Kim Kuk-il, CEO of Management, said, “There are many domestic DDP export companies that are unable to fully exercise their legitimate refund rights due to the complex administrative procedures and physical restrictions of the U.S. customs authorities.” “We will do our best to provide solutions so that our companies can regain their legal rights without unnecessary costs or wasting time.” Reporter Park Jun-sik parkjs@wowtv.co.kr[View full article] Korea Economic Daily - Daeryun Law Firm launches joint task force between Korea and the United States on U.S. tariff refunds...

According to the legal community on the 27th, the Daejeon Dunsan Police Station decided not to send the case to A, a woman in her 40s who was accused of insults, threats, and attempted coercion in January. While taking a class at an academy in Daejeon in July of last year, Ms. A's child asked the instructor to use the bathroom. Permission was not granted. As a result, the child ended up making a toilet mistake in the classroom, and the problem arose after Mr. A complained to the instructor. At the time, Mr. A made remarks to the effect of 'I will take legal action', 'I will upload it to the community', and 'Write an apology', but the instructor filed a complaint, saying he felt scared and insulted. Mr. A denied the charge. Although there may have been emotionally charged expressions at the time, He protested that there was no intention to insult or threaten the other party. He also emphasized that legal action and comments on community posts were also intended to raise issues. The police ruled that not all charges were acknowledged. First, in the case of insults, it was difficult to conclude that the remarks in question were derogatory expressions that would damage the reputation of others, and that there was a lack of objective evidence to support them other than the complainant's claim. The charge of threats was also judged not to have been intended to cause direct harm to the complainant. The police determined that the academy that was present at the time of the conversation The director also explained that he took into account the statement that he felt it was dissatisfaction with the academy's response rather than the individual instructor. Regarding the charge of attempted coercion, it was acknowledged that Mr. A had requested to write an apology, but no coercion or threat of disadvantage was confirmed. Attorney Man-jung Kim of Daeryun Law Firm, who represented Mr. A, said, "It cannot be immediately concluded that it is an insult, threat, or attempted coercion just because the expression was strong during the protest. The context and content of the statement, He explained, “There is a need to look specifically at the specificity of the harm and whether it is coercive.” He then pointed out, “This decision is an example of once again clarifying the standards for distinguishing between emotional protests and acts subject to punishment under criminal law.”[View full article] Child made a toilet mistake after being restrained by instructor...

The Daegu District Prosecutors' Office decided not to indict A, a woman in her 50s who was sent on charges of trespassing in January, 2025. She left home after filing for divorce from her husband in March. Afterwards, Mr. A entered the front door code to collect the rest of his luggage, but in the process, he and his daughter, Mr. B, got into a physical fight. Accordingly, the husband and Mr. B filed a complaint, claiming that Mr. A broke into the residence without permission to secretly steal information beneficial to the lawsuit. Mr. A denied the charge. Person A refuted that she had to go because Ms. B and her husband told her to come directly to her and take her luggage, emphasizing that “I went into the study to pick up an album and did not even have divorce-related documents in mind.” The prosecution accepted the claim of suspect A. It is difficult to say that there are special circumstances under which the suspect has lost his right to housing. The prosecution said, “The residence in question was jointly owned by the suspect and the victim, and the separation period was only about two weeks,” and “Considering that the suspect entered without any physical force because the front door password was not changed during the process of going to and from the house, there is insufficient evidence to acknowledge the loss of residential rights.” Attorney Kwon Min-kyung of Daeryun Law Firm, who defended Mr. He said, “Even if the victim had an emotional aversion to the suspect, this is nothing more than the victim’s subjective circumstances.” He added, “When we comprehensively considered the client’s objective behavior, such as the circumstances, purpose, and method of entering, we were able to defend ourselves by actively explaining that it could not be considered an intrusion that actually harmed the tranquility of the residence.” Reporter Jeong-heon Son, Lawleader, twson@lawleader.co.kr “They invaded my home” when I went to pack my bags during divorce proceedings...

On the 11th, the Gyeonggi Southern Police Agency transferred Mr. A, the head of a beauty clinic, who was booked on charges of violation of medical law and professional negligence causing death, to the Suwon District Prosecutors' Office. Mr. A is suspected of causing the death of B, a man in his 30s, while performing a sedative anesthesia skin care procedure using propofol in January last year. At that time, Mr. B suffered cardiac arrest during the procedure and was rushed to a nearby hospital, but eventually died without regaining consciousness. In addition, Mr. A was also accused of entering false information in the medical record to reduce the actual administered dose of propofol. The bereaved family claimed that Mr. A unreasonably administered unnecessary sedative anesthesia for the procedure, administered excessive amounts of propofol, and neglected his duty to monitor the patient. In addition, it was emphasized that appropriate emergency measures, such as securing an airway, were not properly implemented in an emergency situation where oxygen saturation was low and cyanosis occurred. The police determined that Mr. A's charges were acceptable. The police explained, "Based on the statements of those involved, CCTV data of people entering the procedure room, and propofol dosage data, it is determined that the victim suffered an emergency situation such as cyanosis after Mr. A administered the drug during the procedure." At the same time, it was confirmed that the medical record was falsely recorded. Attorney Jang Se-chang of Daeryun Law Firm, who acted as legal representative for Mr. B, said, "It was a serious crime of very poor quality to cause the patient's death by failing to fulfill the basic duty of care during the sedative anesthesia process, which is directly related to life, and to try to conceal responsibility by lying about the medical record." “We will do our best to ensure that punishment is imposed,” he explained.

According to the Korea Fair Trade Mediation Board, a total of 660 applications for dispute mediation in the construction subcontract field were received in 2024, an increase of approximately 34% compared to 492 cases two years ago. This figure accounts for 60% of all subcontract dispute cases, clearly revealing the reality that construction companies and subcontractors are taking a direct hit as the funding crunch caused by the construction economic downturn deepens. At construction sites, construction costs are directly related to the issue of survival. In the case of small and medium-sized construction companies or subcontractors with relatively limited financial resources, there is a high risk that even a slight delay in payment recovery will lead to serial bankruptcies as they will not be able to cover material and labor costs. At this time, the most powerful legal tool that a construction company can take to protect its rights is the right of lien. The right of lien refers to the right of a person who possesses another person's goods or securities to retain (occupy) the goods until the claim accrued for the goods is repaid. Simply put, it is the right to hold out and not hand over the building until the overdue construction costs are paid. Since it is virtually difficult to dispose of a building with a lien or obtain a mortgage loan, it becomes a powerful weapon to psychologically and economically pressure the building owner. However, a lien does not arise simply because money has not been received. In order for a legally valid lien to be established, several requirements must be met. The first thing to consider is consistency (relevance). This means that there must be a direct relationship between the bond for which the lien is being exercised and the building in question. In other words, the money not received must be the cost of new construction or renovation of the building. You cannot occupy the construction site just because you have other debts owed to the building owner. In addition, an important issue is 'the timing of commencement of occupation.' If the construction company began occupying the building after the court's auction start decision was registered due to the owner's debt, the lien cannot be filed against the successful bidder even if the construction payment was not received. In other words, the difference between winning and losing is whether possession is legally secured and a lien is obtained before the seizure takes effect. In addition, it is necessary to carefully consider whether there was any illegality in the occupation process (trespassing, etc.) and whether construction payment claims were due for payment. Therefore, in the event of a dispute, priority should be given to reviewing whether legal requirements are met rather than attempting to retake the site by force by recklessly occupying the site. It is wise to clarify the fact that the payment due date has arrived through proof of contents, etc., and prepare a safety device for collecting the debt by filing a lawsuit to confirm the existence of a lien along with provisional seizure measures. In some cases, when a building owner counterattacks against a lien with a claim for extinguishment, he or she must find a way to protect the construction cost claim. Attorney Kim Gwang-deok of the Daeryun Law Firm said, “The lien dispute turns into a high-level legal battle from the moment it goes to auction. If possession begins even a day later than the date of registration of the auction start decision, the lien may be broken, and fierce battles will arise over the legality of possession and the statute of limitations on secured claims, etc.” “There are clear limits to the ability of ordinary people to respond alone in complex rights relations, so precious construction funds can be protected only when the exact point of possession is proven and responded through legal procedures with the assistance of experts such as lawyers from the beginning of the dispute.” news@beyondpost.co.kr[View full article] As disputes over non-payment of construction costs increase, how can I protect my rights by exercising my ‘lien’?

Daeryun also filed a complaint against them in December of last year on charges of violation of the Personal Information Protection Act and breach of trust in business, and explained that it filed additional complaints after continuously receiving damage cases. In the additional complaint submitted this time, about 940 victims were named as complainants. The complaint included content pointing out Coupang's poor internal management and the illegality of its follow-up response. Daeryun pointed out that the main cause of this incident was ‘poor internal system management’ rather than external hacking, and emphasized that concealment and reduction circumstances immediately after the accident were suspected. Accordingly, we plan to verify the charges by examining violations from various perspectives, including general problematic issues such as professional breach of trust, as well as violation of the Personal Information Protection Act due to intentional negligence. Large-scale civil lawsuits are also picking up speed. On the 12th, Daeryun submitted a complaint for compensation for damages against Coupang Corporation and former Coupang CEO Park Dae-jun to the Seoul Eastern District Court on behalf of 3,566 victims. The complaint listed as key issues the violation of security measures due to non-recovery of authentication keys for retired employees and violation of notification obligations due to delayed public announcement after recognition of unauthorized access. In addition, the CEO's personal responsibility for the collapse of the security system was also addressed as a major issue. Based on these issues, Daeryun plans to explain the risk of secondary crimes due to the combination of leaked information and actively demonstrate to the court that even if there is no direct financial damage, the leak of personal information itself has caused serious rights violations and mental damage. Legal action in the United States is also underway. On the 8th, Daeryun's American partner law firm SJKP formally filed a class action in the U.S. District Court for the Eastern District of New York, with Coupang Inc, Coupang's parent company, and Chairman Kim Beom-seok as co-defendants. This lawsuit plans to hold Chairman Kim Beom-seok, who makes the final decision on policy, responsible for negligence, violation of implied contracts, unjust enrichment, and violation of the New York State Consumer Protection Act. Based on this, we plan to force fundamental systemic changes at Coupang, including monetary compensation of more than $5 million (approximately 7.3 billion won) and the establishment of a security system through court declaratory and injunctive relief. SJKP plans to continue to recruit plaintiffs and expand the scale of the lawsuit. Daeryun Management CEO Kim Kuk-il said, “This lawsuit is a measure to sound the alarm on the company’s complacent sense of security and irresponsible follow-up response,” and added, “We will restore the rights of victims until the end through multifaceted and three-dimensional legal support that links domestic civil and criminal lawsuits with class action lawsuits in U.S. federal courts.” Reporter Jeong Cheol-wook[View full article] Seoul Shinmun - Daeryun Law Firm files additional criminal complaint for personal information leak from Coupang... “Point out poor internal management and focus on concealment” (link) Financial News - Daeryun Law Firm exerts all-out pressure on Coupang... “Additional criminal charges filed” (Shortcut) 2026-05-13T05:58:20.209Z https://www.daeryunlaw.com/en/broadcast/6143 Homeplus, which is currently undergoing corporate rehabilitation procedures, has sparked controversy over non-payment of salaries to executives and employees for the first time since its founding. It is analyzed that legal risks have reached their peak as management difficulties such as store seizures and inventory shortages due to tax delinquency are worsening, and wage arrears, which is the 'worst obstacle' to revival, have occurred. Many corporate managers often misunderstand that all debt repayments will stop once the decision to initiate rehabilitation is made, but the reality is different. Article 179, Paragraph 1, Item 10 of the 'Debtor Rehabilitation and Bankruptcy Act' specifies workers' wages and severance pay as 'public interest claims'. This means that, unlike general rehabilitation bonds that are converted into equity (or written off) or repaid in installments according to the rehabilitation plan, public interest bonds are the highest priority bonds that must be repaid immediately as soon as the payment due date arrives, regardless of the rehabilitation procedure. In other words, it may be possible to approve the rehabilitation plan even if the bank loan is not repaid, but if the overdue salary is not resolved, the rehabilitation procedure itself may be abolished due to the impossibility of carrying out the rehabilitation plan. This is why labor costs should be considered an essential constant rather than an adjustable variable when establishing a fund balance plan. The problem is the risk of criminal punishment that occurs when wages are not paid in a situation where funds are blocked. In accordance with Articles 43 and 109 of the Labor Standards Act, anyone who fails to pay wages may be subject to imprisonment for up to 3 years or a fine of up to 30 million won. Executives who are subject to investigation often deny intentionality, citing worsening management as the reason. However, the Supreme Court precedent maintains a strict attitude that the intentionality of wage arrears cannot be denied simply due to financial difficulties. In particular, if the arrears are prolonged due to failure to transfuse emergency funds, as in the Homeplus case, there is a very high possibility that the CEO will be criminally charged with violating the Labor Standards Act. If the executives who are supposed to take the lead in preparing the rehabilitation process are called to the investigative agency or the new recruits are arrested, the worst situation could be that they will miss the golden time for corporate normalization. Therefore, the company must establish a detailed strategy to minimize risks during the rehabilitation process. First, when raising new funds, it is necessary to clearly persuade the court and creditors that 'wage repayment' is the primary purpose of use of the funds and obtain approval. It must be emphasized that resolving wage arrears is a prerequisite for revival rather than investing in business profits. If repayment is impossible on one's own, the payment system under the Wage Claims Guarantee Act, well-known as arrears, must be actively utilized. This is not simply a welfare system for workers. It is a strategy that allows the government to first resolve a significant portion of wage debt by confirming the fact of non-payment by the company and assisting in the process. If this effectively reduces the amount of arrears and proves management's will to liquidate, it can be a powerful defense for reducing criminal liability. For a rehabilitated company, non-payment of wages is like a trigger that causes judicial risk for management and turns off the momentum of rehabilitation. Therefore, corporate legal affairs and human resources managers should set 'resolving labor risks' as the top priority rather than securing operating profits when establishing a rehabilitation plan, and should strive to preemptively establish specialized legal safety measures.

According to the legal community on the 24th, the Cheonan Branch of the Daejeon District Prosecutors' Office decided not to indict driver A, who was suspected of causing death by fleeing under the Aggravated Punishment Act for Specific Crimes in January. While driving a passenger car in September 2024, Mr. A made a non-contact while changing lanes from the second lane to the first lane. He was suspected of causing the accident. At the time, the motorcyclist B, who was riding behind him, tried to change lanes at the same time as Mr. A and fell while suddenly braking. As a result of this accident, Mr. B suffered a serious injury of 12 weeks. Afterwards, Mr. A left the scene without any special relief measures and was investigated. Mr. A denied the charge. Although he saw the motorcycle fall immediately after changing lanes, he did not recognize that the accident was caused by him. At the same time, the motorcycle was traveling faster than the speed limit at the time. The police believed that Mr. A fell while suddenly braking. The police transferred the case to the prosecution, believing that Mr. A was guilty based on the fact that he left the scene immediately after the accident. However, the prosecution's judgment was different. After reviewing the black box video, accident details, and road conditions, they concluded that it would have been difficult for Mr. A to recognize that the accident was caused by him. The prosecution said that Mr. He explained that there is a possibility that the victim thought he had caused the accident alone due to road conditions while slowing down. He also added that, considering that Mr. A obeyed the signals and drove in accordance with the general traffic flow after the accident, it is difficult to acknowledge his intention to run away or avoid relief measures even after recognizing the accident. Attorney Dae-som Yoon of the Daeryun Law Firm, who represented Mr. A, said, "In a non-contact accident that occurred immediately after changing lanes, recognition of the accident is a key issue," adding, "The driving speed of the motorcycle and the accident Considering the aspects and subsequent driving behavior, we were able to arrive at a decision not to indict by legally demonstrating that there was a strong possibility that the client did not recognize the cause of the accident.”[View full article] A serious motorcycle accident occurred while changing lanes...Why was the driver who left the scene 'not prosecuted'?

On the 12th of last month, the Changwon District Prosecutors' Office cleared Mr. A, a man in his 30s who was sent on charges of absconding from criminals and violating the Prostitution Punishment Act. Mr. A was accused of engaging in prostitution at a massage parlor in January 2024. He was immediately arrested on charges of mediation. At the beginning of the investigation, he referred to himself as the president and denied the existence of accomplices. However, during the subsequent investigation, he confessed to the existence of Mr. B, the actual president, and the police charged Mr. A with escaping the crime, believing that he had intentionally obstructed the investigation to allow Mr. B to escape. Mr. A denied the charge. Mr. A claimed, “I received advice on running the business from Mr. B, but I took charge of the actual management myself, so I called myself the boss.” He added, “I was just afraid that if I mentioned my accomplices, the crime would be seen as organized and I would be punished more heavily, and I had no intention of letting Mr. B escape.” The prosecution accepted Mr. A’s claim. It was decided that it would be difficult to view Mr. A as a simple ‘pants boss’. The prosecution explained, “Mr. A actually interviewed and hired employees, managed daily profits, and even took charge of police response in case of crackdowns. If the suspect has actually controlled and managed the business, it is difficult to conclude that calling himself the business owner was false enough to deceive the investigative agency.” The prosecution added, “In a situation where the investigative agency did not conduct any other investigation to confirm the facts other than asking the suspect whether he was an accomplice, it is difficult to say that the suspect actively deceived the investigative agency and helped the criminal escape just because he made a statement that was different from the facts.” Choi Yong-hwan, an attorney at law firm Daeryun who represented Mr. “Because this was a case where the client passively made a statement to lower the level of his punishment, we were able to achieve a good result by explaining the legal principles of exercising the right to defense,” he said.

A large number of ‘veterans’ from all over the country - Establishing a ‘one-stop system dedicated to elections’ from the nomination stage to investigation and trial response Daeryun Law Firm is operating a dedicated organization to minimize legal risks for candidates and election officials ahead of the 9th national simultaneous local elections to be held in June. Daeryun gathered experts with specialized know-how in election-related criminal cases and launched the ‘9th National Simultaneous Local Election Response TF (hereinafter referred to as Election TF)’ It was announced on the 24th. This task force focused on providing quick and precise legal solutions in line with complex election patterns. The newly launched election task force was led by a detective group with extensive experience in investigation and trials. Detective Group Leader Kim In-won, a former chief prosecutor at the Seoul Central District Prosecutors' Office, takes charge of the organization as the team leader, and Lee Tae-seung, First Department Head of the Detective Group, serves as deputy team leader and directs the overall work and the entire Seoul. In particular, considering the characteristics of local elections with diverse regional constituencies such as metropolitan and basic group heads and local council members, key personnel from Daeryun's national offices were deployed forward. Through this, an organic cooperation system between regional offices was established, enabling on-site response within the ‘golden time’ immediately after an incident occurred. Members in charge by region include lawyers from major metropolitan areas such as ▲ Seo Bong-ha (Suwon) ▲ Lee Gwang-woo (Incheon) ▲ Jeong Jae-bong (Uijeongbu), as well as ▲ Kim Jin-won (Busan) ▲ Yoon Hyeong-yoon (Changwon) ▲ Lim Seok-pil (Ulsan) Veteran lawyers familiar with the legal situation in each region, including ▲Cho Sang-soo (Daejeon) ▲Shin Min-soo (Daegu) and ▲Kim Cheol (Gwangju), joined. In addition, we eliminated legal blind spots by deploying dedicated personnel to major regions across the country, including ▲ Cho Young-sam (Gangwon) ▲ Nam Sang-gwan (Cheongju) ▲ Yoon Seok-ju (Jeonju) ▲ Da-woo Lee (Jeju). This task force does not simply stop at ex post facto arguments, but provides proactive legal consulting from the stage of forming an election camp. The main areas of work include ▲ legal response during the preliminary candidate registration and nomination screening process ▲ digital forensic tracking and action against false fact disclosure and fake news ▲ accounting advice on election expenses and political fund laws ▲ attendance and exercise of defense rights at the investigation stage. Collaboration with the Digital Forensics Center, which is operated in-house, has also been strengthened. As election campaigns through SNS and online communities become more active, we plan to focus on proving or impeaching charges through scientific evidence analysis for various digital election crimes that occur. In-won Kim, head of the election task force, said, “Local elections are full of accusations and accusations because local interests are intertwined, and the legal rules for applying election law are very difficult.” “We will create an environment where people can focus on the election without getting caught up in it,” he said.

At the agreement ceremony held at the Daeryun Jeju branch office on the 11th, key officials from both sides, including attorneys Daeryun Ko Seung-seok, Lee Da-woo, Kim Dong-hwan, and Ryu Hyeong-jun, as well as Jeju City Judo Association Chairman Kim Jong-beom and standing vice president Kim Hyeong-gyu, attended. The Jeju City Judo Association operates judo in Jeju Special Self-Governing Province. As a non-profit sports organization that oversees the sport, it plays a central role in the development of Jeju Judo, from managing local athletes and leaders to supporting the operation of the gym and holding various competitions. Through this agreement, Daeryun will provide systematic and professional legal support to the Jeju City Judo Association. Areas of cooperation include △ regular legal advice on the overall operation of the judo club △ prevention of disputes related to athletes and leaders △ review of gym and dojo management contracts △ response to compensation for damages and labor and personal information issues that may arise during the competition operation process. Through this, Daeryun plans to further enhance the risk management system of sports organizations. Kim Jong-beom, chairman of the Jeju City Judo Association, said, “Through cooperation with a large law firm, we expect to be able to respond more preemptively to various legal risks that may arise in the process of running a judo association.” He added, “We will strengthen the institutional foundation so that athletes and coaches can focus on their activities in a stable environment.” Ko Seung-seok, attorney at the Daeryun Jeju branch office, said, “Helping the sound operation of local sports organizations is important.” “It is an important social value that a law firm should pursue,” he said. “We will work closely with the Jeju City Judo Association to provide practical legal support, and expand the cooperation model to the entire sports field in the Jeju region in the future.” Meanwhile, Daeryun plans to gradually expand customized legal support activities targeting various sports organizations in the Jeju region with this agreement as an opportunity.

Therefore, most people believe that if they only communicated without actually meeting, there is no legal liability. But the court's perspective is different. Our Supreme Court defines unjust acts that cause divorce and alimony claims as 'a broader concept that includes adultery, but does not amount to adultery, but is any act that is not faithful to the couple's duty of chastity.' In other words, even if there was no sexual intercourse, if an action was taken that broke the trust between the couple, it could be legally considered misconduct as a violation of the duty of chastity. This attitude of the court was clearly revealed in a recent case that the author worked on. The client, Mr. A, was greatly shocked when he happened to see a message that his spouse shared with Mr. B, who was an acquaintance. This is because the spouse was expressing to Mr. B his dissatisfaction and difficulties in married life. The two seemed to have shared a deep emotional connection. In particular, the two people planned a specific meeting, and during this process, the spouse said, ‘Please hug me when you meet,’ and Mr. B also responded positively. Accordingly, Mr. A filed a lawsuit against Mr. B, claiming alimony for incest. Mr. B protested, saying, “I have never actually met him and only listened to his concerns as a friend,” but the court ruled that Mr. B was responsible for compensation. Even if there was no physical meeting, the act of exchanging rational feelings while knowing that the spouse was present, criticizing the spouse, and building an emotional bond was viewed as a violation of the marital life. So, what kind of acts will the court recognize as misconduct? According to precedent, the scope is quite comprehensive. Regardless of whether or not you are having sex, using nicknames such as ‘honey’ or ‘honey’ or exchanging explicit expressions of affection such as ‘I miss you’ or ‘I love you’ is clearly cheating. Furthermore, even if there is no physical contact, conversations containing emotional connection such as 'hug' or planning specific meetings are also included in the category of cheating. In other words, if you go beyond just saying hello and share your daily routine and form an emotional dependence like a lover, it is difficult to avoid liability for damages due to illegal acts. What you need to be especially careful about is cheating under the guise of counseling. A common mistake made in relationships with married people is crossing the line while listening to concerns about marital conflict. The court strictly distinguishes between the act of listening to a person's concerns as a friend and the act of narrowing the emotional distance by blaming the spouse. When the other person gossips about their spouse, agreeing to it and belittling the other spouse by saying things like, "I'm a waste of you," or "I wouldn't do that," can be considered an act that promotes the breakdown of the marital relationship. Therefore, when interacting with a married person, thorough caution is needed to avoid the possibility of misunderstanding from a third party. The most certain criterion is ‘Is it honorable to disclose the contents of this conversation to the other spouse?’ If you feel like you want to hide anything, you should recognize that the relationship has already exceeded the risk level and keep your distance. Conversely, there are many people who have caught the circumstances of their spouse's affair, but hesitate to take legal action because there is no conclusive evidence to prove a physical relationship. However, the court comprehensively judges the emotional distance between the two people through various evidence such as KakaoTalk, text messages, and SNS. Even if the sexual intercourse scene was not captured, it is important to remember that if there are clear traces of emotional infidelity that betrayed trust as spouses in the exchanged conversation, the court will hold the person accountable severely.● Contributions by external writers may differ from the editorial direction of this paper.

Class action lawsuits have begun in the U.S. as well as in Korea and are receiving a lot of attention. Reporter Gil Jae-seop reported from Seoul. The domestic law firm that first filed a criminal complaint against Coupang has initiated a suit for punitive damages in the U.S. along with a domestic civil suit. The U.S. class action lawsuit has a big difference in the amount of compensation compared to the domestic lawsuit. Yes. {Kook-il Kim/CEO of Daeryun Law Firm/For personal information leaks due to gross negligence, the amount of compensation can be increased exponentially in a punitive manner. The amount of damages is punitive, ranging from tens of billions of dollars to several trillions. } The domestic public-private joint investigation team announced that Coupang's personal information was leaked at 33.67 million cases. However, it was revealed that the delivery address list page containing personal information of family members and acquaintances and common entrance passwords was also viewed 148 million times, so the scale of the leak could be larger. {Choi Woo-hyuk/Ministry of Science and ICT, Information Security Network Policy Division Director/This is clearly management's It's a problem.

According to the legal community on the 20th, the Suncheon branch of the Gwangju District Court acquitted Ms. A, a woman in her 40s who was put on trial on charges of attempted extortion last January. Ms. A has been going through a long conflict with Mr. B and his wife, the landlords of the building where she lived, since 2023. During this process, Ms. A accused B's husband of trespassing. She later made a statement to Ms. B, saying, "If you do not give me the settlement, I will file additional charges against my husband for sexual harassment and other charges." In response, Ms. B filed a complaint, claiming that Ms. A tried to extort the settlement amount under the pretext of filing a criminal complaint. Ms. A denied the charges. Ms. B's husband repeatedly entered her residence without her consent, and even caused her to feel actual sexual humiliation. At the same time, she only explained the criminal complaint process and attempted to threaten or extort the settlement amount. He emphasized that there was no intention. The court accepted Mr. A's claim. The court said, "The main part of the facts that the defendant claimed to be a sex-related crime appear to be consistent with the truth, and it is quite possible that he felt sexual shame in the situation." It said, "The defendant's words and actions are likely to be seen as being related to the exercise of the right to file a complaint surrounding a sex-related crime." In addition, the court said, "In the process of discussing a criminal settlement, he did not exaggerate or emphasize the damage he suffered or the surrounding circumstances." Even if it was expressed, it is difficult to immediately evaluate it as an abuse of rights or an act of blackmail,” he added. Attorney Lee Kang-jae of Daeryun Law Firm, who represented Mr. A, explained, “Attempted extortion is not established simply by mentioning the possibility of criminal charges or suggesting an agreement,” and added, “It must be judged by strictly distinguishing whether there was a threat to the extent of suppressing the other party’s free decision-making and whether the purpose was to obtain unfair property benefits.” #incident #judgment #Attempted extortion #Not guilty #Threat #Money extortion #Gwangju Shin Min-ji (sourminjee@ikbc.co.kr)[View full article] Woman who mentioned suing while demanding settlement money...

Aunt Juju refers to a type of ‘unlicensed illegal medical practitioner.’ It is a metaphorical term for a woman who visits homes without a medical license and illegally administers nutritional supplements or injections. It is difficult to dismiss illegal medical visits as an aberration of some celebrities. In online communities such as mom cafes and SNS, you can easily find posts such as “Looking for a nurse to give injections at home” or “I have an IV in my family at home because I have a nurse.” In one online cafe, there was even a line of comments such as “I left your number in a message” on a post asking “I’m not feeling well right now. Can I get an IV in 2 hours?” This suggests that visiting medical services are being carried out without protection even among the general public. Jang Hyeon-jae, director of Fatima Clinic, a specialist in home visits for 29 years, cited ‘lack of awareness’ as the main reason for illegal visit treatment. There are many people who view IV treatment outside the hospital as a simple nutritional supplement and do not recognize it as a medical practice. Director Jang Hyeon-jae said, “When we provide on-site treatment, due to the nature of the space, we are not fully equipped with medical equipment like hospitals, so we are more careful about diagnosis.” Non-medical people without medical qualifications visit ‘Aunt Rosacea’According to Article 33 of the Medical Service Act, IV procedures performed outside hospitals are clearly illegal under the Medical Service Act. This means that the procedure should only be performed at medical institutions where medical services can be performed. However, as an exception, in cases where emergency patients are treated in accordance with the Emergency Medical Services Act or at the request of the patient or patient's guardian, treatment may be performed at a location other than a medical institution. In addition, visitation treatment is permitted when the head of the national or local government deems it necessary for the public interest or when there are unavoidable reasons for providing treatment at the patient's location. So what are the criteria for judging the first exception, ‘emergency patient’? Attorney Jang Se-chang of Daeryun Law Firm said, “It depends on the judgment of the medical staff,” and added, “Under the exception rule that ‘treatment is possible upon request from the patient or guardian,’ it is possible to receive on-site treatment even if it is not an emergency.” He said, “However, if you use visit treatment even if you are able to move or it is not an emergency, you cannot apply for health insurance medical fees,” and added, “The patient must pay the full cost of visit treatment.” The court and the Ministry of Health and Welfare are interpreting the exceptional circumstances mentioned above relatively strictly. For example, in 2011, in a case where a medical corporation required its doctors to regularly visit multiple social welfare facilities and provide treatment, the Supreme Court ruled that ‘medical treatment at the request of a patient or patient’s guardian’ only means cases in which it is provided in response to an individual and specific request from a specific patient. This means that the act of deliberately repeating medical visits without the patient's request may also constitute a violation of medical law. Visiting treatment is only possible with a domestic medical license. In other words, it means that medical practices such as nurses coming to people’s homes to prescribe prescriptions and administer injections are ‘illegal.’ Some say that “retired nurses and currently active nurses can apply,” but this is also not true. This is because Article 27 of the Medical Service Act states, “Medical personnel cannot perform medical practices other than those licensed.” Nurses serve as assistants in medical treatment performed under the guidance of doctors. This means that nurses can administer drugs according to the doctor's prescriptions and instructions, but they cannot decide the type or dosage of the drug on their own. However, there is an exception in cases where patients who have been discharged after surgery or have difficulty moving receive ‘home nursing services.’ A family nurse practitioner who has passed the national qualification examination can administer medication according to a doctor's prescription at a location other than a medical institution. Therefore, the medical community believes that “those who are called ‘aunts of injections’ are likely to be non-medical people who are not qualified to visit medical services.”The risks and punishment levels of illegal medical visits must be emphasized.In online communities, there are also stories of experiences in which a family member or acquaintance who is a doctor provided medical treatment on a visit. Jinhee Kim, a medical lawyer, said, “Cases like this can be viewed as the standard for general visit treatment.” He said, “However, in accordance with relevant laws, you must keep a medical record containing symptoms, diagnosis, treatment process, and details to avoid problems later.” If a person who is not qualified to be a medical professional provides on-site treatment, he or she may be subject to imprisonment of up to 5 years or a fine of up to 50 million won. Attorney Jang Se-chang warned, “If such an act is repeatedly carried out for money or made into a business, the ‘Special Measures Act on the Control of Health Crimes’ rather than the Medical Service Act applies, and the person can be imprisoned for life or more than two years.” According to a 1997 case law, “if a medical visit is carried out with the intention to repeat illegal medical practice, it is considered ‘medical practice as a profession,’ even if the act is limited to a one-time act.” The same goes for drugs. According to the Pharmaceutical Affairs Act, non-pharmacy owners (pharmacists or oriental pharmacists) cannot sell medicines, and medicines cannot be sold in places other than stores. In particular, prescription drugs can only be sold with a doctor's prescription. Violation of this may result in imprisonment of up to 5 years or a fine of up to 50 million won according to the Pharmaceutical Affairs Act. It is also illegal for pharmacists to provide on-site medical treatment, diagnose a patient's illness, and provide prescription medication. In fact, in 2017, the Supreme Court judged and punished a case in which a person holding only a pharmacist's license performed medical treatment that falls within the exclusive domain of a doctor as an unlicensed medical practice. What kind of punishment will a patient who received medical treatment receive? If the patient did not know that the medical practice was illegal, in principle, he or she is not subject to criminal punishment. However, if you are more than a simple victim and are an ‘instructor’ who caused someone to practice medicine without a license, you cannot be free from legal responsibility. Article 27, Paragraph 5 of the Medical Service Act stipulates that “no one shall allow a non-medical person to perform medical services.” Even if the subject of treatment is ‘oneself,’ it is against the law. There is also a need to reconsider awareness of illegal home visits and drug prescriptions. In particular, there is a tendency to think that nutritional supplements, such as intravenous fluids, can be easily administered anywhere without a doctor's diagnosis. In principle, fluids are prescribed when there is a medical need, such as dehydration, electrolyte abnormalities, or infection. Lee Yoo-jeong, a professor of family medicine at Korea University Guro Hospital, warned, “If you repeatedly receive intravenous fluids without a doctor’s prescription, infection at the injection site or inflammation of blood vessels may occur. Excessive moisture builds up in the body, which poses a risk to the heart and lungs, and in severe cases, there is a possibility that it may lead to systemic infection.” #Home medical care #Illegal procedure #Illegal prescription #Injection aunt #Women’s Donga[View full article] Aftereffects of the ‘aunt who gave injections’, “To what extent is home visit treatment legal?” (Shortcut) 2026-05-14T02:02:57.209Z https://www.daeryunlaw.com/en/broadcast/6129 33 million information leaked... The meaning of the 'subclass' strategy for Korean consumers There is heated discussion both inside and outside the legal community regarding the recent Coupang, Inc. incident in which personal information of 33 million people was leaked. At a time when most people are preparing for domestic lawsuits, there are many who are questioning the fact that my law firm, SJKP, LLP (Daeryun Law Firm's U.S. partner), submitted a complaint to the U.S. District Court for the Eastern District of New York (EDNY). The question is, “For a company that generates most of its sales in Korea, why did they choose the US court, which has difficult procedures?” The answer to that question is clear. The core of this lawsuit is to hold Coupang's U.S. headquarters (Inc.) fundamentally responsible for the incident and force it to establish a practical system to prevent recurrence. And SJKP's judgment is that the optimal judicial battlefield to realize this is the United States. This is not simply an attempt to assert the superiority of American legal procedures. It is the result of intense legal consideration to provide the most practical means of relief to victims in cross-border data breach incidents. The point that differentiates this lawsuit most from domestic lawsuits is the expansion of 'defendant eligibility.' In the complaint, not only Coupang Corporation but also Chairman Kim Beom-seok were listed as co-defendants. This is not simply a symbolic choice based on the position of corporate representative. Under U.S. law, if a corporate violation occurs due to direct involvement or approval of management, or due to gross negligence in management, the executive may be held liable separately from the corporation. SJKP believed that Chairman Kim Beom-seok should take actual responsibility for this 'internal control failure' as the final decision-maker on security policy and budget. Furthermore, it is also clear that there is a violation of Article 349 of the New York State Corporation Law (N.Y. GBL). This provision strictly prohibits acts or practices that deceive consumers. Coupang has continued to give the impression that it has a sufficient security system, but in reality it operates a lax security system that falls short of this, misleading consumers. The final responsibility for these 'deceptive practices' cannot but fall on Chairman Kim Beom-seok, who oversaw the policy direction. In addition, we plan to actively utilize the 'discovery' system, which is the core of US civil litigation, to identify the governance failure, which is the root cause of this incident. Unlike in Korea, where it is difficult to prove a victim, in American courts, decisive evidence such as internal emails or decision-making meeting minutes can be forcibly obtained. Through this, SJKP will thoroughly uncover whether Chairman Kim Beom-seok and the headquarters were aware of security vulnerabilities but tolerated improvements for profitability reasons. This goes beyond a simple data leak and proves the 'collapse of governance', which is a neglect of the responsibilities of the highest decision-making system, and will become a powerful driving force for demanding strict legal responsibility. Some are focusing on the amount of damages claimed over $5 million (approximately KRW 7.3 billion), but the true value of this lawsuit, which legal experts should pay attention to, lies in 'equitable damages.' Unlike domestic civil lawsuits, which often limit to ex post facto monetary compensation, U.S. courts can issue 'Declaratory Relief', which officially confirms that a company's actions are illegal, through a ruling, and 'Injunctive Relief' that forces specific actions. In addition, SJKP requested the court to order Coupang to establish the best security system and mandate a multi-factor authentication system. This goes beyond a simple agreement and is a will to prevent a second leak by forcibly reorganizing the company's security governance. In addition, the goal is to bring about 'systematic change' by demanding strengthened monitoring services for minors and the elderly who are vulnerable to identity theft. Another decisive reason for choosing the U.S. court is the strategy of forming a 'class'. This lawsuit has New York residents as the representative plaintiffs, but victims residing in Korea are designated as a 'subclass'. A subclass is a device that separately classifies and protects groups with different residences or legal issues within the overall group. Through this structure, Korean consumers will be able to enjoy the same effects of the U.S. court's favorable ruling, and the benefits of the security enhancement order will also extend beyond the border to Korean users. In the end, the reason why SJKP headed to the U.S. court is clear. This lawsuit is not just a battle for compensation, but a fight to establish the company's 'data security obligations' that meet global standards. We are confident that this lawsuit will become a milestone in new digital justice that prevents global companies from avoiding responsibility and ensures that consumer rights are fully protected regardless of national borders.

Coupang lawsuit asks for ‘digital responsibility’ beyond punishment (Shortcut) 2026-05-11T04:27:58.723Z https://www.daeryunlaw.com/en/broadcast/6128 "It is unfair to consider an act repeated for several months as not serious after several months of school violence," said the court, which judged the school violence repeated for several months individually and judged the "soft baton" punishment given to the perpetrator to be unfair. According to the legal community on the 12th, the 1st and 2nd administrative divisions of the Incheon District Court ruled that the 1st and 2nd administrative divisions of the Incheon District Court on January 22 were teenager A at the Incheon Southern Office of Education. A decision was made in favor of the plaintiff in a lawsuit filed against the superintendent of schools to cancel the written apology. Previously, Group A filed an administrative lawsuit against the school violence review committee's decision to issue a written apology (No. 1), the lowest level, to student B. Group A is said to have suffered physical and mental harassment from Group B and his group since 2024. At that time, it was investigated that Group B and others had used violence against Group A under the pretext of ‘sparring’ (exchanging prices with an opponent in boxing). Afterwards, Group A’s parents obtained a pledge to prevent recurrence from the offending student, but Group B continued to harass Group A by swearing at him or criticizing him in front of the students around him. Ultimately, Group A reported the damage to the school. However, the School Violence Committee issued the lowest level of written apology (No. 1) on the grounds that the vulgar language used by Group B was a common expression among students and that the remarks encouraging bullying were not directly aimed at Group A. In response, Group A protested, saying, “This is a rash measure taken without a proper investigation,” and argued that stronger measures are needed. The Office of Education countered, saying that it had obtained sufficient statements from the parties and the students who witnessed it and conducted a thorough investigation. In addition, he emphasized that the investigation cannot be considered inadequate just because A's claim was not accepted, and that the School Violence Response Review Committee cannot impose disciplinary action based on uncertain circumstances or speculation. However, the court ruled in A's favor. The court ruled, “Even if it was not a direct comment toward the plaintiff (Group A), looking at the entire context, there is ample room to view it as words and actions intended to exclude the plaintiff from a public place and intentionally humiliate him.” He continued, “It is not reasonable to deny intentionality from the perspective of deeming the actions repeated for several months to be insignificant when judged individually,” adding, “Imposing a disposition without even confirming additional facts simply because the statements of both sides are contradictory and there is no evidence is a serious error in the basic judgment elements. Mr. A's legal representative, Kim Dong-jin, a lawyer at the Daeryun Law Firm, said, "The regulations for handling school violence cases define bullying and ridicule as types of bullying, but the Office of Education only judged whether this constituted verbal violence and did not review whether it was bullying." He added, "Even though Mr. B's remarks seemed ordinary on the outside, we were able to win the case by proving that behind them there was an intention to persistently isolate and ridicule Mr. A."

The agreement ceremony, which was held virtually at the Daeryun Gangnam branch office on the 4th, included CEO of Daeryun Jeong Chan-woo, lawyer Yoon Kyeong-won, and Tri Minh Law Firm. Key officials from both sides, including representative attorney Nguyen Minh Anh and Ho Chi Minh branch vice-governor Nguyen Bui Ba Huy, attended. Tri Minh Law Firm was established in Hanoi, Vietnam in 2007 and has strengths in the field of foreign investment and corporate legal affairs. In particular, based on a cooperative network with major government agencies such as the Vietnamese Ministry of Justice and the Ministry of Planning and Investment, it helps foreign companies enter Vietnam. Through this MOU, the two companies plan to provide integrated legal services to Korean companies pursuing entry into Vietnam and Vietnamese companies interested in the Korean market. Specifically, ▲Advice on licensing and investment in Vietnam entry ▲Advice on corporate investment and M&A structures between Korea and Vietnam ▲Legal support for real estate and construction projects ▲Advice on finance, banking and commercial transactions We cooperate in various fields such as ▲labor, personnel and intellectual property rights advisory ▲joint response to local disputes and commercial arbitration. In particular, this MOU is significant in that it goes beyond simple business cooperation and establishes a foundation for cooperation that expands legal service exchanges between Vietnam and Korea and provides practical support for the mutual advancement of companies. NGUYEN MINH ANH, representative attorney at Tri Minh Law Firm, said, “We are very honored and proud to have signed an MOU with Daelun. “I think this agreement will not only be a cooperation between two law firms, but will also be an important starting point for legal cooperation between Vietnam and Korea and a meaningful milestone that will provide real value to companies and citizens of both countries,” said CEO Daeryun Jeong Chan-woo. “We will provide specialized legal solutions for the Vietnamese market through cooperation with law firms.” Meanwhile, Daeryun Law Firm is continuously strengthening its global legal service system by expanding its cooperation network with law firms and professional organizations in major countries such as the United States, China, and Japan. #Vietnam #Daeryun #Business Agreement Seok-ho Park (haitai2000@ikbc.co.kr)[View full article] “Building a legal bridge between Korea and Vietnam”...

This seminar was prepared to explore preemptive response strategies for Korean companies to the rapidly changing business environment in China and the Vietnamese market, a key point of the global supply chain, and was jointly held by Daeryun and the Korea-China Association of Korea on the 11th at the FKI Tower Conference Center in Yeouido, Seoul. The seminar site included traditional areas such as manufacturing and construction. Executives from various industries preparing to target the local domestic market, including industrial groups, distribution, healthcare, and beauty, attended. In particular, participants who wanted to explore local M&A and new business opportunities beyond simple production base relocation showed great interest. The seminar was divided into a total of two sessions. Attorney Kyung-won Yoon, who was the first presenter in the first China session, introduced risks in each field such as contracts, intellectual property rights, labor, and investment recovery in detail under the topic of ‘Types of legal disputes and points to keep in mind when entering the Chinese market.’ Attorney Yoon emphasized, “In Chinese business, preliminary review of contracts is the first step in preventing disputes.” He emphasized, "Clarify the provisions for resolving disputes with local partners. Preemptive registration and monitoring are essential for intellectual property rights issues such as trademark infringement." Regarding China's recently strengthened data protection laws, he advised, "Special attention should be paid to compliance such as safety evaluation of data transfers abroad." Park Seung-chan, chairman of the Korea-China Association and director of the China Management Research Institute, made a presentation on the topic of 'the recent Korea-China summit and our companies' response.' Chairman Park analyzed, “Korea-China economic relations have gone beyond simple mutual complementation and have entered the ‘5.0 era’ of full competition and horizontal cooperation. As China’s technological independence and supply chain internalization accelerate, our companies must read the flow of supply chain reorganization and establish more sophisticated localization strategies.” In the second Vietnam session, lawyer Daeryun Choi Young-jin explained ‘Types of legal disputes and points to keep in mind when entering Vietnam.’ Attorney Choi compared the pros and cons of establishing a new corporation, joint venture, and M&A as methods of entering Vietnam. He explained, “M&A allows for quick market entry, but there is a risk of inheriting hidden risks such as tax and land use rights of the acquired company. Statement guarantees and contingent liability compensation structures through acquisition contracts, etc. are essential.” He then emphasized, “Borrowing in the name of local people should be avoided as it is difficult to be legally protected and may lead to loss of management rights.” Choi Ho-cheol, PM of the Korea Trade-Investment Promotion Agency (KOTRA), gave a presentation on the topic of ‘Vietnam Investment Advancement Support Project, Success Stories, and Investment Opportunities.’ PM Choi said, “Vietnam is transforming beyond a production base into a huge consumer market with a population of 100 million,” and “The M&A strategy that goes beyond simple manufacturing and targets domestic markets such as distribution, consumer goods, and healthcare is effective.” Daeryun Kim Kook-il, CEO of Management, said, “I hope that this seminar will serve as an opportunity for our companies to find practical solutions in an increasingly complex global trade environment.” He added, “We will continue to work on local legal risk diagnosis through Chinese and Vietnamese groups.” “We will closely support the company’s entire overseas expansion process, including M&A and dispute resolution,” he said.

According to the legal community on the 11th, SJKP, an American partner law firm of Daeryun Law Firm, filed a lawsuit in New York on the 6th (local time) with Coupang Inc. and Chairman Beomseok Kim as co-defendants. A class action lawsuit has been filed. This lawsuit seeks responsibility for a data leak that occurred in November 2025, and the compensation claim is more than $5 million (approximately 7.3 billion won). Regarding the reason for designating Chairman Kim as a defendant, SJKP explained, "It is not because of his position as CEO, but because he exercised actual control and decision-making authority over data security budget and policies." This is based on the legal judgment that under U.S. federal law, individual executives can be held responsible if corporate misconduct occurs due to management's approval or gross negligence in management. The complaint lists the following reasons for Chairman Kim's liability: ▲Negligence, ▲Negligence Per Se, ▲Unjust Enrichment, ▲Violation of New York State Corporation Law, and ▲Breach of Implied Contract. SJKP American lawyer Son Dong-hoo argued, "Chairman Kim neglected the establishment of a security system even though he had an obligation to protect customer information as the final decision-maker of security policy," and added, "The fact that he violated consumer protection and personal information protection laws is itself recognized as negligence." He added, "We tried to maximize the company's short-term profits by reducing the budget that should have been used to build security infrastructure out of the profits, and we judged that Chairman Kim was involved in this process and took unfair advantage." “We must set a precedent for holding CEOs accountable.” The plaintiffs in this lawsuit include New York City residents and U.S. citizens as lead plaintiffs, and all U.S. residents who suffered information leak damage are included as class members. Victims residing in Korea were set as a separate subclass. Attorney Son explained that the Korean victims' classification as a subclass was "not for compensation discrimination, but a device to procedurally protect the rights of groups with different places of residence and applicable laws." He added, "According to U.S. precedents, subgroups often receive substantially equal compensation as the representative plaintiff. There is no need to worry about disadvantage because the court reviews the reasonableness of the compensation proposal." SJKP said the purpose of this lawsuit goes beyond monetary compensation. He emphasized that it was a structural change in the company. Attorney Son said, "The goal is to bring about practical system changes, such as providing financial compensation to victims as well as providing long-term risk monitoring services and strengthening protection for minors and the elderly in particular." He continued, "The purpose of this lawsuit is to set a precedent that CEOs can take personal responsibility for security incidents so that companies recognize personal information protection as a matter of survival rather than cost reduction."

In the past, the main focus was plants in the Middle East, infrastructure in Asia, and urban development in Africa, but in the 2020s, the landscape is changing, with the company entering Western markets such as North America and Europe and recording orders worth US$3 billion (approximately KRW 4.4 trillion) per year. To secure competitiveness in the borderless legal service market, one must not remain within the narrow confines of the existing Overseas Construction Promotion Act and the overseas EPC (engineering, procurement, and construction) level. It is time to change the framework to provide global legal services from a macroscopic perspective that encompasses the entire project, such as investment development and urban development. Legal review from the overseas expansion and negotiation stage: Case of binding force of applicable law In overseas construction practice, applicable laws, dispute resolution methods, and contract conditions are complexly intertwined. In particular, as international standard contracts, including FIDIC (Federation Internationale Des Ingenieurs-Conseils) contract terms, are widely used, legal review from the overseas expansion and negotiation stage has become the starting point for multinational legal services. The Supreme Court's position on the application of governing law to overseas engineering contracts (2016Da222712) also clearly shows the importance of drafting contracts for design, construction, and operation. In that decision, the Supreme Court ruled that if there is a clear agreement between the parties on the choice of governing law, it must be followed. Even if the issue is closely related to domestic law, such as trade secrets, it reaffirms that the governing law clause in the contract has a strong binding force that changes the standard of trial itself. Between domestic law and international arbitration: Arbitration awards in construction disputes Disputes in the overseas construction field are commonly resolved through international arbitration institutions such as the ICC (International Arbitration Court) and SIAC (Singapore International Arbitration Center). In particular, such arbitral awards have the same effect as domestic final judgments in accordance with the New York Convention (Convention on Recognition and Enforcement of Foreign Arbitral Awards). However, the New York Convention stipulates that 'execution may be refused if it is against the public order of the enforcement country.' In addition, the court recently ruled that "'violation of public order' under the New York Convention should be interpreted in a very exceptional and limited manner" (Seoul Central District Court 2021 Kagi 2778), showing importance on the stability and predictability of international arbitral awards. This ultimately gives an important implication that the role of lawyers should be expanded to convergence experts who deeply understand and respond to construction technology and international contract practices. In the midst of the expansion of overseas expansion and the opening of the legal market, the challenges of global legal services, legal services are now positioned as a core strategic asset that determines the success or failure of a project beyond an after-the-fact means. In particular, providing multinational legal services in a timely manner in areas where Korean companies are strong, such as plants, shipbuilding, and marine structures, and designing them advantageously from the initial contract terms have value beyond the ability to win orders. To this end, we must actively consider providing legal advisory services from domestic law firms as a package when receiving overseas orders, or providing legal consulting support to developing countries in connection with international development cooperation (ODA) projects. At the same time, active support should be provided to strengthen multinational capabilities by closely cooperating with global law firms in the Americas and Europe so that our legal services can stand shoulder to shoulder with the global market.

As some of the data that can confirm the specific information access process is lost, the possibility of administrator punishment is also raised. According to the police on the 11th, the Seoul Metropolitan Police Agency's Coupang Investigation Comprehensive Task Force (Task Force) began an additional investigation into a request from the Ministry of Science and ICT (MSIT) the previous day to investigate Coupang's failure to comply with data preservation orders. The Ministry of Science and ICT announced the final investigation results of the Coupang infringement incident the previous day and used the app for a total of 11 days from May 23 to June 2 last year. They confirmed that the connection records (logs) had been deleted and requested the police to investigate. In addition to requesting an investigation into the deletion of web logs in December of last year, the scope of the investigation was expanded to include the deletion of app logs. In accordance with the Information and Communications Network Act, the Ministry of Science and ICT ordered Coupang to preserve data on November 19 last year when the infringement report was received, but the explanation is that Coupang did not adjust its automatic log storage policy, so the records that should have been left disappeared. According to the Ministry of Science and ICT, Coupang stores app logs every six months. If the data preservation order had been implemented immediately, the records from May 23 should have remained, so the government believes that Coupang took related action only after December of last year. An app log is a type of 'logbook' in which all user actions that run the app are recorded. This is an important clue to specifically identify the subject accessing information when analyzing a breach incident. Heung-Yeol Yeom, Professor Emeritus of Information Security at Soonchunhyang University, explained, “Both web logs and app logs are needed to determine the circumstances of the leak.” The police are investigating not only the app logs but also the circumstances of the web log deletion. Web logs were deleted for about 5 months before the leak suspect left the company. Although there is a difference from the time when the suspect began committing the crime in earnest, it is evaluated as data that can be used to examine the background of the attack, etc. Seoul Metropolitan Police Agency Commissioner Park Jeong-bo said at a regular meeting on the 9th, "We are also investigating the necessary personnel in relation to the investigation requested by the Ministry of Science and ICT." Under the current law, deleting access records can be punished by imprisonment for up to 2 years or a fine of up to 20 million won. Corporations can also be punished as they fall under the dual punishment provisions. Accordingly, the police are expected to look into the circumstances surrounding Coupang's failure to comply with the data preservation order. The data preservation controversy has been repeated in the past whenever personal information was leaked, including at SK Telecom and KT. As the possibility of evidence being destroyed has been steadily raised, the Personal Information Committee recently announced a policy to establish a new evidence preservation order system that enforces data preservation when an investigation begins. In the political world, a bill was proposed last year that would allow preservation orders to be issued even before hacking damage occurs. Jang Ji-woon, an attorney at Daeryun Law Firm, said, "Whether or not there was intentionality will be the key issue," and "the main issue will be whether there was intentional destruction for the purpose of destroying evidence and interfering with the investigation." Seo Jeong-bin, a lawyer at Soul Law Firm, also said, “If the purpose of (deletion) is concealment or reduction, there is a possibility of aggravated punishment.” Reporter Min Soo-jeong (crystal@mt.co.kr)[View full article] Police focus on investigation into 'suspicion of Coupang data preservation order'... “Intention is the key” (Shortcut) 2026-05-09T12:12:17.593Z https://www.daeryunlaw.com/en/broadcast/6121 'Strategic non-reporting' is on the rise, and legal disputes are rapidly increasing. 'Family order' must be proven to receive legal protection. 'Common-law marriage' refers to a relationship in which people live together like a married couple without legally registering their marriage. In particular, it refers to a relationship that needs to be protected as a de facto legal couple. In the past, there were many cases where middle-aged people or remarried families maintained a common-law relationship without registering their marriage due to unavoidable circumstances, but the recent situation is different. There is an increasing number of cases in which the younger generation postpones marriage registration due to the need to maintain a single household for economic reasons such as loans and subscriptions, or free dating relationships. As the ‘common-law marriage’ family form increases in our society, related legal disputes are also increasing. Many people often think that living together for a certain period of time constitutes a common-law marriage. However, contrary to general perception, the court's standards for judgment are much more stringent. In fact, this means that, like a married couple who has registered their marriage, they must be able to objectively prove that it was a relationship that requires legal protection. In fact, the Supreme Court also stipulates that for common-law marriage, “simple cohabitation or an intermittent romantic relationship is not enough; the parties must subjectively have the intention to marry and objectively, there must exist the substance of the marital life that allows joint life between spouses to be recognized in terms of family order in terms of social concepts” (see Supreme Court decision 2000Da52943, delivered on April 13, 2001, etc.). In fact, the court’s criteria for such judgment were also used in cases that the author was in charge of. You can get a glimpse. Client A provided housing to his lover and temporarily covered living expenses. However, they were unable to overcome conflicts such as personality differences, and the conflict began when the ex-lover insisted on a common-law marriage and requested property division and alimony. The author argued that a common-law marriage was not established by emphasizing that the couple did not have a wedding during the litigation process and that although it is difficult to reveal specific cases, they did not act as spouses or communicate with the other party's relatives and family. The court also did not recognize their relationship as a ‘common-law marriage.’ It was determined that there was no evidence to support a common-law marriage. As the ‘common-law marriage’ was not recognized, all claims for property division and alimony were dismissed. As such, the court’s standards in common-law marriage disputes require objective indicators, contrary to our expectations. This is why you should not think that you can easily receive legal protection just because common-law marriage has become common. When a dispute arises, there are surprisingly many cases in which no protection is provided. Therefore, if a common-law marriage must be recognized or its establishment cannot be recognized, you should check your situation in advance from a legal perspective. Just because you have not legally registered your marriage does not mean that you are relieved of all responsibility or that your rights are not recognized. However, in order to be legally recognized, it is not important to simply live together, but it is necessary to consider whether they have ever expressed their intention to marry, whether there is a basis to believe that they are an actual couple or started a family, and what evidence is available to prove this. Whether or not you are in a common-law marriage is not a matter to be disputed after the fact, but rather a matter that requires sufficient consultation with a legal expert to accurately check your relationship and rights before a dispute arises. ● Contributions by external writers may differ from the editorial direction of this paper.

'Violation of safe driving duty' prosecution court said, "An inevitable choice to avoid an accident... Another accident would have occurred if a sudden stop occurred." The driver who caused an accident while trying to avoid a vehicle that cut in without turning on the turn signal in the next lane was found not guilty. On the 22nd of last month, the Seoul Central District Court found Mr. A, a man in his 40s, not guilty on charges of violating the Road Traffic Act. Mr. A was driving on a five-lane road in Seoul in 2024. He was accused of causing an accident while returning after turning the steering wheel to change lanes to avoid a vehicle that cut in without warning from the right. The police judged that Mr. A had violated his duty to drive safely under the Road Traffic Act and sent the case to the prosecution. The prosecution found Mr. A guilty and requested a summary order of a fine of 200,000 won, which the court also accepted. However, Mr. A objected and requested a formal trial. During the trial, Mr. A claimed that the victim's vehicle did not turn on its turn signal. He claimed that he had to cut in and hurriedly avoid the car without stopping. He also emphasized that since the lane he had to avoid was a left-turn lane, he had no choice but to return to the original lane. The court found Mr. A not guilty. The court ruled, "This accident was caused by the victim's sudden lane change," and "The defendant's speeding up to pass in order to go straight was an unavoidable driving act under the circumstances at the time." He continued, "It is difficult to believe that the defendant should have made a sudden stop or made an unmandated left turn to avoid an accident in anticipation of the victim's vehicle illegally crossing the lane. Rather, considering the traffic situation at the time, there is a high possibility that a secondary accident will occur in the event of a sudden stop." He added. Attorney Kim Yun-joong of Daeryun Law Firm, who represented Mr. A, explained, "Violation of safe driving obligations cannot be assumed solely as a result of an accident, and the objective risk must be strictly proven. We were able to obtain an acquittal by actively demonstrating that changing lanes at the time was an inevitable choice to avoid an accident."[View full article] 'Bang' while trying to avoid a car in front that didn't have its blinker on...

Kwon Chil-seung and AI Association debate… “There is an urgent need for a legislative decision to eliminate legal uncertainty.” A unanimous voice from the industry and the legal community said, “A legislative decision to eliminate uncertainty is needed... a minimum track to lead innovation.” In line with the recently implemented AI Basic Act, a forum for discussion was held at the National Assembly to increase public access to justice and establish the legal status of the legal tech industry. In addition, the office of Democratic Party lawmaker Kwon Chil-seung and the Korea Artificial Intelligence Association held the 2nd seminar room of the National Assembly Building on the 9th, titled ‘People’s rights and choices in the AI era.’ In his welcoming speech, Rep. Kwon Chil-seung said, “AI technology must become a wise tool that expands human capabilities,” and emphasized, “Rather than rejecting the wave of technology, we should lead the change with expert insight.” Choi Yi-seon, policy expert at the Korea Artificial Intelligence Association, who made a presentation on the topic, said, “As of 2024, the legal service trade balance deficit has exceeded KRW 1.6 trillion,” and emphasized that the domestic legal market pointed out the crisis. Commissioner Choi Yi-seon said, “Building a ‘sovereign legal AI’ that accurately embodies the spirit of domestic law, rather than a global AI model learned based on English and American law, is the way to protect the sovereignty of the legal profession,” adding, “What is needed now is a legislative decision that lays down a minimum track so that legal tech companies can run without legal uncertainty.” In the discussion that followed, Yang Cheon-soo, a professor at Yeungnam University Law School, served as the moderator, and attorney Lee Seo-hyung of Daeryun Law Firm led the legal profession. He appeared as a representative panelist. Attorney Seo-Hyung Lee said, “With more than 70% of domestic civil lawsuits filed without lawyers for both plaintiffs and defendants in recent years, LegalTech is a key tool to increase people’s access to justice.” He also suggested, “We need a flexible regulatory design that guarantees maximum autonomy in providing simple legal information by applying the risk-based approach of the AI ​​Basic Law, and sets documents submitted to the court as high-risk areas and mandates lawyer review.” Specific demands from industry figures also continued. Elbox CEO Lee Jin called for preemptive legislation, saying, “Through RAG (Search Augmented Generation) technology, we are proving the stability of AI by dramatically reducing the hallucination phenomenon,” and Nexus AI CEO Lee Jae-won appealed for a revision of the Attorney Act, saying, “The vague provisions of the Attorney Act are blocking rational collaboration for AI development.” Meanwhile, the organizers, Democratic Party Rep. Kwon Chil-seung, Rep. Park Ji-won, and Rep. Park Hee-seung attended the debate. In addition, various experts including Kim Hyun-cheol, president of the Korea Artificial Intelligence Association, policy expert Choi Lee-seon, who gave the presentation, Lee Seo-hyung, lawyer at Daeryun Law Firm, Lee Jin, CEO of Elbox, Lee Jae-won, CEO of Nexus AI, who participated as discussants, Jeong Woo-seok, head of the Legal Department of the Ministry of Justice, and Oh Cheong-mi, director of the National Legal Information Center of the Ministry of Government Legislation, attended and held a heated discussion on the future of the legal tech industry.

Consumers affected by Coupang, where a large-scale personal information leak occurred, filed a class action lawsuit against Coupang's U.S. parent company on the 6th (local time) seeking punitive damages in a U.S. court. According to the U.S. District Court for the Eastern District of New York, the Coupang information leak victims, with U.S. citizens Mr. Lee and Mr. Park as representative plaintiffs, filed a lawsuit against Coupang Inc., Coupang's parent company, and Beom-seok Kim on the same day. A lawsuit was filed seeking damages against the Chairman of the Board of Directors. Coupang Inc is the parent company that holds a 100% stake in Coupang's Korean corporation. In the complaint submitted to the court on this day, Mr. Lee and others claimed that Coupang Inc was negligent in violating its obligation to protect personal information, which constituted a violation of the implied contract. They also claimed that they made unfair profits by failing to take appropriate security measures and violated New York State law prohibiting deceptive business practices. The law firm that represented the lawsuit SJKP's attorney Tal Hirshberg said at a press conference after submitting the complaint that day, "Coupang Inc was established under U.S. commercial law and owes obligations to all who use Coupang, including U.S. citizens as well as Koreans," and explained, "I think using the U.S. court will help us obtain better information about what mistakes were made (on Coupang's side)." The law firm, a Korean partner of SJKP, said Daeryun's CEO Kim Kook-il said at a press conference that day, "The essence of the Coupang incident is that the information of more than 33 million members was leaked, and responding to this problem must be a priority," and added, "I am confident that the class action lawsuit filed today is the most wanted and essential lawsuit by the affected members." The complaint did not specify the specific number of participants in the lawsuit. Attorney Hershberg explained that more than 7,000 information leak victims have contacted us about participating in the class action lawsuit to date. The Coupang lawsuit in the U.S. will be conducted separately from the lawsuit filed in the Korean court. It is also expected to be conducted separately from the shareholder class action lawsuit previously filed in the U.S. Federal Court for the Northern District of California. The United States has a punitive damages system, so large amounts of compensation are often set for companies with gross negligence. In fact, T-Mobile, one of the three major U.S. mobile carriers, In 2021, the personal information of more than 76.6 million current and potential customers was leaked, causing a stir. Consumers filed a lawsuit in court, and T-Mobile spent $350 million (about 510 billion won) in settlement. Separately, he promised the court that he would invest at least $150 million in strengthening the company's security system. pan@yna.co.kr Lee Ji-heon (pan@yna.co.kr)[View full article] Yonhap News - Victims of Coupang information leak file class action lawsuit in U.S.… Claim for punitive damages (link) Edaily - Coupang and Chairman Kim Beom-seok are sued in the U.S., personal information leakage class action lawsuit in full swing (Go here) KBS - Victims of Coupang information leak file class action lawsuit in the US...

This is because objective evidence such as communication records and CCTV, rather than ‘who says what,’ now determines the outcome of a trial. In a criminal justice system with such a strengthened evidence-based approach, we met with attorney Tae-seung Lee, head of the first department of the Daeryun Criminal Group at Law Firm, on the 4th to learn about the defense strategy that a suspect must have and the role of a law firm. - It is said that material evidence determines the outcome of a trial, but how is this changing in detail in the field?” Now, statements are just a starting point. We live in an era where objective data such as forensics, communication records, and CCTV have become more persuasive than dozens of reports. Therefore, it is very important for defense lawyers to plan how to secure and analyze what material data will be obtained from the beginning of the case, rather than relying only on reversing statements or alibis. - Why is the importance of evidence especially emphasized in sex crime cases? "This is because the statements of the parties are often conflicting. What fills that gap is digital evidence. For example, in a case of forced molestation, there was a case in which an acquittal was obtained by proving the intimacy and natural relationship between the two people through comprehensive analysis of messenger conversations, movement routes, CCTV, etc. before and after the incident. In addition, in a case suspected of 'possession of sexual exploitation material', the charges were cleared by technically proving through forensic analysis that the file was created automatically and there was no trace of actual viewing or saving. - What about other fields such as economic crime or organized crime? "In fraud and embezzlement cases, if you closely analyze account details, messenger records, etc., you can find clues to prove the legitimacy of fund flow or transparency of decision-making. For organized crimes such as voice phishing, the key is to analyze server logs or communication patterns. Through this, simple This means that the outcome can be completely different depending on how far one reads even the same record. "Because CCTV or log records are usually deleted in 1-2 weeks, it is very important to secure the original video through the court before the start of the investigation for the right to defense. However, there are high practical barriers to proceeding with the process, such as identifying the subject of application, constructing persuasive logic for the court, and cooperating with related agencies. Therefore, there is a high risk that evidence will be deleted if time is delayed, so it is necessary to consult with experts from the beginning of the case and approach it strategically. “The forensic center is located within the law firm, but the law firm center has the advantage of data recovery technology. A law firm's strength is its ability to reconstruct the data into legal language, whether there is evidence, whether there are any controversies over illegal collection, and whether indiscriminate data restoration can be detrimental to the client, so legal judgment is especially essential in this process so that lawyers, forensic experts, and former police officers can collaborate to get as close to the truth as possible. What is it?" People in criminal proceedings are going through the darkest tunnel of their lives. The best defense is not just a fight over the law, but helping the client return to his or her daily life. We are not a passive defense that just waits for the investigative agency's action, but we proactively seek out evidence and try to lead the process from the beginning of the case. Our goal is to be a reliable partner who gives you the belief that 'I did everything I could with this team.'" Baek Jae-hyun Reporter (itbrian@newsis.com)[View full article] Lee Tae-seung, First Division Chief of Daeryun Detective Group, “Digital evidence separates guilt and innocence” (link) 2026-05-09T00:33:20.185Z https://www.daeryunlaw.com/en/broadcast/6115 Recently, there has been a series of personal information leaks from large platform companies. However, the essence of this incident is not a simple matter of external intrusion, but that 'information managed internally was leaked.' This point suggests the importance of an internal control system for overall corporate information. In the case of corporate officials, this incident should serve as an opportunity to have the same level of alertness not only to personal information but also to 'technology and trade secret leaks', which are core assets. This is because, just as personal information leaks destroy trust, technology leaks that occur silently also pose a risk that threatens the existence of companies. In fact, according to data from the National Police Agency, technology leaks are so frequent that 668 cases of violation of the Industrial Technology Protection Act have been detected over the past five years, deepening management's concerns. The strongest legal basis for sanctioning such leaks is Article 18 of the Unfair Competition Prevention and Trade Secret Protection Act. According to this provision, a person who uses trade secrets in a foreign country or knowingly leaks trade secrets for the purpose of obtaining illegal profits or causing damage to a company may be subject to imprisonment for up to 15 years or a fine of up to 1.5 billion won. However, the biggest difficulty in practice is proving the 'intention of leakage', which is a crime requirement. This is because most suspects deny intentionality by protesting that “I only backed it up because I needed it for work” or “I could not delete it by mistake.” At this time, digital forensics goes beyond simple data restoration and becomes the key to completely reconstructing the ‘digital behavior pattern’ of the former employee. Although users may be able to delete visible files, it is virtually impossible to manipulate the 'metadata' and 'system artifacts' recorded by the operating system. Forensic experts organically link the logs of when files were deleted and when large amounts of data were moved to a personal cloud or USB, and scientifically prove that the 'accidental mistake' claimed by the suspect was in fact a 'carefully planned export'. However, securing procedural legitimacy is what must precede a technical approach. If you are in a hurry to deal with a leak and arbitrarily recover data or search an employee's personal device without legal review, you may run the risk of being counter-sued for violating the Personal Information Protection Act or detecting electronic records, etc. Moreover, we must be aware that data obtained without going through legal procedures may be denied evidence during the investigation and trial process according to the 'rule of exclusion of illegally collected evidence'. Therefore, the essence of responding to technology leaks is not simply restoring data, but securing evidence that can be used in court. The integrity of the recovered data must be maintained to prove that it is the same as the original, and the 'chain of custody' from collection to analysis and submission must be fully explained. Furthermore, it is essential to legally reinterpret the fragmented digital traces and complete a logical link that proves the intentionality of the leak. Ultimately, a successful technology leak response must be an integrated response system that combines technical analysis and legal crisis management. Due process must be followed under the legal advice of a lawyer from the initial stage of evidence collection, and an organic system must be in place that can directly lead to effective legal action, such as applying for a temporary injunction or filing a criminal complaint, as soon as the analysis results are derived. Only when the law refines the traces discovered by technology into a powerful weapon can it fully protect its precious intellectual property from technology leakage crimes that threaten the existence of companies.

How companies can recognize ‘digital intent’ (link) 2026-05-13T12:55:09.647Z https://www.daeryunlaw.com/en/broadcast/6114 Plaintiff: “I borrowed 520 million won in my name, but I don’t know what kind of land I bought.” “The suspect actually used the loan to purchase land… there was no intention to deceive.” A man in his 70s who was sent on charges of getting a loan of 500 million won in the name of an acquaintance by deceiving him into believing that he could make a lot of money by investing in a development site near the airport was acquitted by the prosecution. The Western Branch of the Busan District Prosecutors’ Office was cleared of charges on the 20th of last month. A decision was made not to indict Mr. A, a man in his 70s, who is suspected of violating the Act on the Aggravated Punishment of Specific Economic Crimes (fraud). In July 2016, Mr. A was accused of personally misappropriating the loan after deceiving his acquaintance B by telling him, ‘Buy land near the airport because it will be developed,’ and obtained a loan of 520 million won in B’s name. Mr. B filed a complaint to the police when Mr. A did not provide information about the land he wanted to purchase and did not even pay the loan interest. Mr. A completely denied the charges. It is true that he proposed to purchase the land, but he claimed that there was a mutual agreement to take out a loan in the name of the complainant and that the loan was made with the consent of the complainant. Mr. A emphasized, “I actually purchased the land, but development fell through and I did not make any profit, and there was no intention to deceive the complainant from the beginning.” The prosecution found that Mr. A was not guilty. The prosecution explained the reason for non-indictment by saying, “For the charge to be acknowledged, it must be confirmed that the money received from the complainant was used for something other than the purchase of land. Considering that the suspect used the loan to actually purchase land, it is difficult to conclude that he stole the money by deceiving the complainant.” Kim Young-heum, a lawyer at Daeryun law firm who represented Mr. “We dug into it,” he said. “We were able to obtain a good result by presenting objective financial data proving that the client actually used the loan to purchase land, while also revealing that there were actual development opportunities in the area, and persuading us that this case was nothing more than a civil settlement issue, not a criminal deception.” Reporter Kim Hee-guk kukie@kookje.co.kr[View full article] “It will be developed near the airport”… Man in his 70s on charges of 500 million won loan fraud not indicted (link) 2026-05-03T16:59:17.108Z https://www.daeryunlaw.com/en/broadcast/6113 Let’s claim the cost of laser treatment for ‘congenital nevi’… Insurance company: “Simple procedure without incisions.” The court said, “Laser removes lesions by destroying melanin cells… It is practically similar to excision.” The court ruled that even if it is a laser procedure rather than a surgical operation, if it has a substantial surgical effect, such as removing a lesion, it should be recognized as surgery under the terms and conditions. According to the legal community on the 5th, the 3-1 Civil Division of the Suwon District Court handed down the lower court ruling that ruled in favor of the plaintiff in the appeal of the insurance claim lawsuit filed by A, a woman in her 40s, against the insurance company on the 15th of last month. Maintained. Mr. A signed an insurance contract with his children scheduled to be born in 2019 as the insured. The contract included a special clause providing for payment of surgical expenses for congenital deformities, deformities, and chromosomal abnormalities. Mr. A's child, born the following year, was diagnosed with a congenital non-neoplastic nevi and received laser treatment accordingly. Initially, the insurance company paid the treatment costs, but later refused to pay for additional treatment costs, causing a dispute. Mr. A filed a lawsuit against the company, claiming that he had met all requirements for insurance payment, including receiving a definitive diagnosis from a doctor and undergoing surgery necessary for treatment. On the other hand, the insurance company refuted this claim. This means that the diagnosis cannot be considered confirmed based solely on clinical estimates without undergoing a biopsy. In addition, it was argued that laser treatment is not subject to payment under the terms and conditions because it is a procedure other than surgery that involves manipulation such as cutting or excision of the body. The court ruled in Mr. A's favor. The court explained, "The doctor in charge stated that the diagnosis of the disease is usually confirmed through clinical observation by a specialist," and "The diagnosis of the disease should be considered confirmed." Regarding the issue of surgery, "The disease is unlikely to improve naturally and may affect social life, so treatment is necessary," and "The laser procedure used for treatment is a method of treating lesions by breaking melanin pigment cells into small pieces." It continued, "This involves manipulation of the living body. “It can be considered similar to excision in that it removes the injured lesion, so it is a surgery as defined in the terms and conditions,” he added. The insurance company, which was dissatisfied with the first trial result, appealed, saying that it was a case where treatment was not necessary, but the second trial court also made the same ruling.

The Chuncheon District Prosecutors' Office ordered a non-indictment against Mr. A, a man in his 40s who was transferred on charges of fraud on the 8th of last month. Mr. A was an acquaintance in July 2024. In the process of concluding a business transfer contract with Mr. B, he was accused of stealing property profits worth 180 million won by lying about the status of customers, company debt, and facility status. Mr. A was reported to have claimed at the time, "I have no debt to the company and own all assets, including facilities." Mr. A completely denied the charges. He said, "Mr. B, an acquaintance of 10 years, decided to take over after already knowing the financial status of the company, including sales." He refuted this. He also emphasized, "It is true that the business rights were transferred, but the list of facilities or goods subject to transfer was not specifically specified in the contract." The prosecution accepted Mr. A's argument. It was determined that Mr. B was able to fully understand the overall business as he regularly visited the company. The prosecution said, "The suspect continued to work at the business for several months after the business transfer," and "If he had tried to deceive the other party for the purpose of embezzling money, it would have been difficult to carry out such an action." He explained. Heo Jeong-won, a lawyer at Daeryun Law Firm who represented Mr. A, said, "We actively explained that whether or not a crime of fraud is established must be judged based on the time of the act of deception. It was effective to clearly point out the facts underlying the transfer agreement, such as the fact that the debt questioned by the complainant is also included in the subject of succession." #Accident #Fraud #40s #Non-indictment Park Seok-ho (haitai2000@ikbc.co.kr)[View full article] I handed over the business, but half a year later, "Give me my money back"... 40-year-old not indicted on fraud charges (link) 2026-05-10T08:33:58.982Z https://www.daeryunlaw.com/en/broadcast/6111 Advocating as an 'executive network' beyond simple friendship, parents across Busan have come together as a huge network to directly solve local education and safety issues and create a city where children are happy.

According to BSPN, more than 200 people, including parents, education sector and community officials, attended the event. Launched on this day. BSPN promotes an ‘executive network’ that is differentiated from existing parent groups. Beyond simply raising problems or complaints within the school, parents directly check and verify on-site issues such as education, care, and school route safety. The purpose is to share correct information and bring about improvements through practical actions such as discussions, campaigns, and volunteer activities. The launch ceremony opened with a congratulatory performance by the children's cheering team 'Shooting Star' along with the declaration of the slogan 'Parents of Busan, One Heart'.

Attendees cheered and cheered for Busan parents' new leap forward. BSPN Chief Spokesperson Son Jeong-soo said, "We proved today that parents in Busan can be of one mind," and added, "We will become a strong network that protects and cares for all children in Busan at the same level, just as we look at our children with warm eyes."

According to the legal community on the 3rd, the Changwon District Prosecutors' Office decided not to indict Mr. A, in his 40s, who was sent on charges of forcible harassment and defamation in December last year. Mr. A was accused of molesting Mr. B, a medical staff member who was treating him in a hospital emergency room in 2024, and spreading false information by claiming that he had sexual relations with Mr. B. Mr. A was accused of taking long-term flu medication. As a side effect, he showed strange behavior and was admitted to the emergency room, but he denied the charges, saying he had no recollection of what happened at the time. Even if there was physical contact, it is argued that this was not an act done with sexual intent. The prosecution determined that Mr. A was mentally and physically impaired due to side effects of the drug. This is because Mr. A underwent a drug test because he showed abnormal behavior before visiting the emergency room, and it was confirmed that the medication he was taking could cause abnormal behavior, self-harm, and confusion. In addition, it was suspected that Mr. A was in a normal state of mind due to his unreasonable behavior of molesting a stranger and making sexual comments in front of many people, and considering that Mr. A had no history of sexual crimes, it was determined that he did not have the ability to discriminate between objects or make a decision due to the side effects of the medication. Choi Yong-hwan, who represented Mr. A, Attorney Daeryun of the Law Firm explained, "Even if the alleged facts meet the requirements for a crime, if there are grounds that constitute a crime under the law, a 'not guilty' disposition, which is a type of non-indictment, is issued. Based on medical records, etc., we were able to obtain a decision not to indict by proving that Mr. A was in a state of mental and physical loss at the time."

However, the National Tax Service noted that these corporations often have no real functions, including management, but only serve to collect payments for entertainment activities, and are defining them as 'paper companies for tax avoidance purposes' and increasing the intensity of crackdowns. The National Tax Service uses evidence to determine the human and material substance of a corporation, such as offices, employee employment, and contracts, as a standard for judging tax evasion by providing differentiated services that are distinct from existing agencies and contributing to increased sales. Aiming for tax savings... According to the Hankook Ilbo coverage of the recent full-scale crackdown, the main reason why one-person agencies representing famous celebrities or their families have proliferated is because they can achieve tax savings by applying the corporate tax (highest tax rate of 26.4%), which is less burdensome than the personal comprehensive income tax, which has a top tax rate of 49.5% (including local taxes). The CEO of an entertainment agency said, "As a celebrity's income increases, the burden of progressive taxes also increases, so asset management companies are recommending the establishment of a one-person corporation. Most high-income celebrities handle expenses that way." Controversy over tax evasion through 'one-person agencies' has been on the rise since last year. The National Tax Service took issue with celebrities' one-person agencies through a 'planned investigation'. The National Tax Service believes that a celebrity using a corporation with no other functions as a channel to receive payment while maintaining a management contract with an existing agency is a trick to 'change only the taxable entity from an individual to a corporation.' Noh Jong-eon, a lawyer and CEO of Existence Law Firm, pointed out, “If we recognize cases like Cha Eun-woo’s as ‘tax saving,’ it would be like encouraging ordinary office workers to set up a corporation, receive a salary, and reduce taxes.” Prior to Cha Eun-woo, actors Lee Ha-nui, Park Hee-soon, Yoo Yeon-seok, Lee Jun-ki, and Cho Jin-woong also paid fines ranging from hundreds of millions to billions of won due to suspicions of tax evasion by a one-person agency. The agencies consistently explained that “it is just a difference in the interpretation and application of tax laws.” Although the surcharge is paid, it is believed that it is subject to corporate tax. In fact, some celebrities objected to the National Tax Service's decision and filed a request for judgment from the Tax Tribunal (at the stage before administrative litigation). However, no final decision has been made in any case yet. Tax evasion through one-person agencies is legally a ‘grey area’. National Tax Service's standard... "The actual function of a corporation" The National Tax Service does not take issue with the establishment of a celebrity's one-person agency itself. The problem is that a corporation is used as a 'conduit' (an entity that simply acts as a conduit and then disappears) without any actual function. As a result of Hankook Ilbo's recent analysis of cases of pre-tax adequacy review decisions related to single-celebrity agencies, the standards presented by the National Tax Service when considering 'substantial functions' were specifically identified. ① First, the physical and human substance must be clear. Tax evasion is suspected if there are no traces of setting up an office or hiring employees, as well as a contribution contract with the new corporation as a party, a business entrustment contract, or a contract containing the specific scope of work of the corporation. ② Here, there must also be a record of actually providing ‘services’ as a corporation. It is not enough to just set up an office and hire employees, and you need a contract to prove that you have provided 'services' commensurate with your income. The National Tax Service pointed out, “If the revenue of the corporation in question is nothing other than settlement money generated from entertainment activities based on the exclusive contract between the celebrity and the existing agency, and the only wage earner is a celebrity, it appears that it does not have the ability to manage the celebrity.” Experts say that Cha Eun-woo also appears to have difficulty meeting both conditions, considering the facts revealed so far. Ahn Won-yong, a lawyer at Dasol Tax Firm, said, "To date, there has been no case where the 'substantial function' of the corporation has been recognized and the surcharge has been returned in the case of a one-person agency. The key is whether the actual purpose of establishment and operation of the corporation can be proven, and it seems that celebrities did not think that this would be a problem." However, as the tangible tax savings are clear, the establishment of one-person agencies is expected to continue for the time being despite the risk. However, some point out that celebrities should take the Cha Eun-woo controversy as an opportunity to examine the actual functions and transaction structures of corporations. Ja-young Yoon, senior attorney at Daeryun Law Firm, said, “As celebrities’ image is important, they need to receive strict advice in advance from a tax risk management perspective,” and added, “Self-inspection based on the National Tax Service’s decisions is also a good method.” Reporter Na Gwang-hyeon (name@hankookilbo.com) Reporter Shin Eun-byeol (ebshin@hankookilbo.com) Reporter Lee Yu-jin (iyz@hankookilbo.com)[View full article] ‘How can Cha Eun-woo be cleared of tax evasion suspicions?’...

This workshop, held at the FKI Tower Conference Center in Yeouido, Seoul on the 30th of last month, was designed to examine the core compliance management and ESG strategies that companies must have in a rapidly changing internal and external management environment. The event was held simultaneously online and offline, and legal and compliance officers and practitioners from each company attended and filled the room. The workshop consisted of practical programs such as ESG management strategy and fair trade risk management. Among these, in the fair trade compliance session, Attorney Gye-Jun Son of Daeryun Corporate Law Group presented topics directly related to practice, such as ▲Major issues of the 2026 Fair Trade Act ▲Types of unfair trade practices ▲Subcontract transaction risk management. Attorney Son first cited 'strengthening digital forensics-based investigations' and 'large-scale investigation team' as the Fair Trade Commission's latest field investigation trends and presented systematic response tips. He said, "Recent investigations have involved large-scale manpower. “The trend is to secure digital data,” he said, adding, “We must not only accompany investigative officials at all times, but also have the company’s IT experts present to prevent infringement of rights during the forensic process and establish a system to immediately seek assistance from lawyers in uncertain matters.” He also followed up with suggestions on risk management measures for each stage of subcontracting transactions. Attorney Son pointed out legal issues that may arise at each stage, from contract conclusion to payment, and warned of the dangers of following business practices. He added, "The Subcontracting Act has many prohibitive provisions in principle and is structured in such a way that the company must bear the burden of proving justifiable reasons. Since it is not easy to claim that transaction practices with partners do not violate the law, it is essential to make efforts to improve transaction practices themselves by strengthening internal training and regularizing prior monitoring through external experts." In addition, ESG added. Presentations on government-supported business strategies and ISO 37001/37301 revision response guides followed, and at the end of the event, the '2025 Compliance Management Leaders Awards' awards ceremony was held to discover excellent companies that contributed to establishing a compliance culture. At the awards ceremony on this day, HK InnoN was honored with the grand prize, and Korea South-East Power and GS Retail received the grand prize and excellence award, respectively, and were selected as exemplary examples of compliance management. Daeryun Choi Yi-sun, CEO of Management and AI and Compliance Department Head, said, "Starting with this workshop, Daeryun will strengthen its all-round partnership encompassing law and compliance so that companies can continue to grow beyond complex regulations and continue to grow sustainably."

The victim's family submits an appeal. The court ruled that the parents of Choi Won-jong (25), the 'Bundang knife rampage' who killed 14 people, cannot be held responsible. According to the legal community on the 30th, the 3rd Civil Affairs Division of the Seongnam Branch of the Suwon District Court ruled in favor of some of the plaintiffs in the lawsuit for damages filed by the victims' family of the 'Bundang knife rampage incident' against the assailant Choi Won-jong and his parents on the 16th. The court ruled in favor of some of the plaintiffs. It was determined that Choi should pay 880 million won in compensation to the bereaved family, but all claims for damages filed by the bereaved family against Choi's parents were dismissed on the grounds that "if the parents took their own actions, they cannot be held responsible for crimes using unpredictable means," the court said. "There is no evidence to suggest that Choi's parents violated their duty of supervision," and "in light of the fact that Choi left home immediately after becoming an adult and has ignored the family's medical advice and care, the family He explained, “It seems that it would have been very difficult to get Mr. Choi, who had become independent, to receive medical treatment or take medication again.” In terms of the foreseeability of the crime, he also said, “The period of time that Mr. Choi and his parents lived together just before the crime was only two days, and the delusion that Mr. Choi mentioned at the time was also far from threatening or harming anyone, with the intention of ‘being harmed by stalking by a large organization.’” In addition, although Mr. Choi has a mental history, he has no criminal or investigative experience. Considering the fact that Choi's parents did not harm others or used violent words or actions, it was judged that it would have been difficult for the parents to predict Choi's actions. Daeryun Law Firm, which represented Choi's parents, explained, "The Supreme Court precedent states that 'supervisory duty' does not mean a general obligation to completely control the behavior of a mentally ill person and prevent all consequences of that behavior, but should be interpreted within a reasonably limited scope." He added, “It appears that the court has reflected the existing precedent that liability must be held by comprehensively considering all circumstances, including kinship, cohabitation, level of daily contact, and whether the person has ever committed an act of harm to others in the past.” The victim’s family reportedly submitted an appeal on the 29th.

This seminar, held on the 29th, was held jointly with the Korea Artificial Intelligence Association. It was prepared to examine changes in the regulatory environment that companies will face in the wake of the Basic Act on AI, which will be implemented from the end of this month, and to present practical response strategies. The event, which was held online and offline, was attended by people from all walks of life, including major domestic and foreign conglomerates representing each industry such as energy, manufacturing, and distribution, as well as officials from national research institutes. Attorney Yi-seon Choi, who made the first presentation, explained the system and legislative purpose of the Basic Act on AI under the topic of ‘Basic Act on Artificial Intelligence, a mine or a shield?’ Attorney Choi analyzed, “Unlike the EU AI Act, Korea’s AI Basic Act does not prohibit the use of specific artificial intelligence in principle,” and “It is a structure that supports industrial growth and imposes management responsibility only for areas with a large social impact.” He then emphasized, “AI compliance is not a regulation, but can be a practical shield to protect companies in the event of future accidents or disputes.” Attorney Nam Kwon-yul pointed out the ‘differential regulatory system’ of the AI ​​Basic Act. He explained, “The AI ​​Basic Act varies the intensity of regulation depending on the impact of artificial intelligence, and specifically imposes transparency, safety, and accountability obligations on high-impact AI.” He also said, “The starting point of risk management is for a company to clearly distinguish whether it is a ‘developer’ or a ‘user operator’, or a combination of both statuses.” In addition, “User operators that are in direct contact with users must focus on securing ‘transparency’ to inform the fact that AI is being used, and developers who build systems must focus on ‘business operator responsibilities’ such as the risk management system.” He added, “In particular, items 1 to 3 among the business responsibilities must be “User operators are also considered to have implemented this, thus relieving the burden of overlapping regulations,” he added. At the same time, he emphasized, “Legal response in the AI ​​era is a matter of insight to distinguish which position and responsibility each person takes on,” and added, “Lawyers from Daeryun Law Firm will share the burden regarding new risks.” In the last session, attorney Seo-Hyung Lee explained from a practical perspective how companies should check and fulfill each obligation under the topic of ‘Practical response plan for companies under the AI ​​Basic Act.’ In this process, he used high-impact AI as an example and emphasized that its relevance should be judged based on the context in which it is used, rather than a specific technology or model type. Regarding the transparency obligation, he pointed out that advance notice of AI use and display of results should not be limited to formal measures, and should be structurally reflected from the service design stage so that users can actually recognize it. Next, lawyer Lee said, “Responding to the basic AI law is not a matter of declarative compliance, but is a process of classifying application obligations based on whether high-impact, generative, or high-performance AI is high-impact, generative, and high-performance AI and reflecting this in the company’s decision-making and operating structure.” He added, “These standards are applied throughout the development, operation, and legal stages.” “It is important to have a system that can be continuously inspected and reviewed,” said Kim Kuk-il, CEO of Daeryun. “This seminar was an opportunity to pre-examine the regulatory environment and responsibility structure that companies will actually face after the implementation of the Basic AI Act. Daeryun will support companies’ practical regulatory response through integrated legal advice covering everything from high-impact artificial intelligence judgment to responsibility design, compliance establishment, and dispute response, centered on the AI and Data Intelligence Group.” Reporter Kwon Byeong-seok (bsk730@fnnews.com)[View full article] Financial News - Daeryun, AI Basic Law Response Strategy Seminar..."Inspection of High-Impact AI Regulation and Responsibility Structure" (Shortcut) Law Leader - “Intensive inspection of high-impact AI regulation and responsibility structure”... Daeryun successfully completes seminar on AI basic law response strategy (link) 2026-05-04T22:42:00.949Z https://www.daeryunlaw.com/en/broadcast/6087 On the 22nd, the 'AI Basic Act', which will become the legal basis for the AI ​​(artificial intelligence) industry, came into effect. This bill contains at its core regulations on 'high-impact AI' that can have a significant impact on human life or basic rights. The safety and reliability of AI technology, which has so far remained in the realm of self-regulation, has now entered a phase where responsibility is required according to explicit regulations. These changes require AI business operators to have systematic compliance and risk management capabilities beyond technological competitiveness, and are expected to fundamentally reorganize the operating paradigm of the entire industry. First of all, 'transparency' must be secured so that users can clearly recognize whether AI is involved. This is basic work to build user trust by preventing situations where AI-generated information is mixed with human results and making the source transparent. Accordingly, high-impact AI or generative AI operators must notify the use of AI through terms and conditions before providing services, and attach identifiable marks such as watermarks to the results to indicate that they are AI products. In addition, companies with very large AI models must have a preemptive safety verification system. The bill stipulates that AI with a cumulative amount of calculations used for learning greater than 10 to the power of 26 FLOPs is subject to core management. This is a step higher than the EU AI Act's standard of 10 to the 25th FLOPs, and can be interpreted as an intention to build a preemptive risk management system that goes beyond existing models and encompasses the next generation of super AI that will emerge in the future. Currently, the LLM of major domestic companies does not meet this standard, so it is unlikely to be immediately classified as 'high-impact AI', but establishing governance in preparation for the future technological environment has become an unavoidable task. Additionally, a 'people-centered management system' must be established to complement the 'black box' problem, which is the opaque decision-making structure of AI. In order to clarify who is responsible for the results, business operators must have a system that can explain the algorithm's judgment criteria and data overview, and establish specific procedures that allow humans to immediately intervene and control in the event of a system error. Ultimately, in order to efficiently implement increasingly complex legal requirements, an integrated response strategy that penetrates the entire company's value chain is essential. Although the law has already been implemented, the 'one-year fine guidance period' set by the government to establish the system is a very valuable golden time for companies. This period is not simply a grace period to avoid punishment, but should be used as an optimal preparation period to secure actual legal stability and improve internal systems. Fortunately, the AI ​​Framework Act is substantially alleviating the burden of overlapping regulations on operators through the 'deemed implementation' system. If the AI ​​development business has already completed certain measures, the user using it is also considered to have fulfilled the corresponding obligation, or if it has faithfully complied with the obligations under individual laws such as the Digital Medical Products Act or the Credit Information Act, it is recognized as having fulfilled its obligations under this Act. Therefore, companies should use the given guidance period as a diagnostic tool to closely review whether their service falls into the high-impact AI category. At the same time, it will be necessary to establish a 'customized implementation strategy for each industry' to reduce the waste of duplicate responses by considering consistency with other laws and regulations. The driving force to spread the sails of innovation despite the strong waves of regulation ultimately depends on how precisely a company manages legal risks.

It is difficult to determine." A convenience store owner who was put on trial on charges of taking a drunk part-time worker to a hotel and sexually harassing her was found not guilty. The 12th Criminal Division of the Seoul Southern District Court found not guilty a man in his 40s, Mr. A, who was indicted on charges of quasi-forcible molestation under the Child and Adolescent Sexual Protection Act in December last year. Mr. A ran the convenience store he runs in October last year. After drinking with the victim, Mr. B, who was a part-time worker, he was accused of taking the drunk Mr. B to a hotel and molesting him by removing his clothes. Mr. A denied the charges. He claimed, “I took off the vomit-covered victim’s coat and top and bottom, but I did not intend to molest him.” Regarding the reason why he did not come out of the room for about 30 minutes, “Mr. B vomited on the hotel floor, so I asked the staff for understanding and tried to resolve the situation.” An explanation was given. The court found that Mr. A was not guilty. Considering the fact that the victim had no recollection of the situation at the time, it was believed that the possibility of inferring the damage in light of the post-mortem circumstances could not be ruled out. The court said, "There is suspicion that the molestation was committed as in the indictment, as the defendant's DNA was detected in the victim's underwear," but added, "As a result of checking the CCTV in the hotel lobby, while the defendant was supporting the victim, he put his arms around his shoulders or hugged him with both arms, and some parts of his body were raised. “It is possible that he touched the victim,” he ruled. He added, “Although the victim claimed to have been naked after waking up, it is difficult to determine molestation considering the fact that DNA was not detected inside the victim’s underwear.” Park Seong-dong, a lawyer at Daeryun Law Firm, who represented Mr. He said, “I was able to obtain a good result by faithfully explaining the situation at the time, where it was difficult to consider the person who committed the crime. #Accident #Actual harassment #Why is the store owner not guilty?

Gong Daeryun, a practical application risk management method, said, “The rapidly changing pharmaceutical and bio environment... will become a ‘legal compass’ that helps companies grow.” Daeryun Law Firm announced on the 29th that it successfully completed the webinar (online seminar) ‘2025 Pharmaceutical and Bio Sector Settlement - Medical, Bio and Healthcare Group Seminar’. This webinar, held on the 28th at the Daeryun main office in Park One, Yeouido, Seoul, heated up the pharmaceutical and bio industry last year. It was prepared to conduct an in-depth analysis of heated patent disputes and personnel and labor issues and to find practical response strategies for companies in preparation for the rapidly changing regulatory environment. The webinar was broadcast live online on this day, and many people in charge and practitioners from related industries, including pharmaceutical companies, bio ventures, and healthcare companies, participated and showed great interest. The presenter was attorney Lee Il-hyung, head of the Daeryun Pharmaceutical Bio Healthcare Center. Attorney Lee, who holds a pharmacist's license, delivered practical implications by analyzing major precedents he personally worked on, such as the '13-valent pneumococcal vaccine ruling', based on his extensive experience in litigation in the medical and pharmaceutical field. "It is important to note that the court recognized the special nature of bio-processing and interpreted the scope of 'research and testing exception' broadly," he said. "As much of the legal uncertainty related to the production of semi-finished products has been resolved, companies can more stably and confidently pursue R&D and global cooperation using public technology. “It was an opportunity,” he explained. Attorney Lee then continued to make suggestions from a human resources and labor perspective on the issue of illegal dispatch, which is a chronic risk in the pharmaceutical industry. He focused on the relationship between the main contractor's obligation to comply with standard operating instructions (SOP) and whether illegal dispatch is established. He said, “In strictly regulated industries such as pharmaceutical and bio, it is reasonable to view requiring compliance with SOP as a legitimate exercise of quality control rights rather than command and order to personnel.” However, he advised, “If the SOP goes beyond the simple standard of results and specifically controls the work method, there is still a risk,” and “the management system must be thoroughly blocked from the main contractor’s direct work instructions and the management system must be reorganized so that the partner company operates as an organization with its own expertise rather than simply supplying manpower.” Lastly, practical countermeasures in line with changed laws, such as the Digital Medical Products Act that went into effect last year, were also shared. Attorney Lee emphasized, “The implementation of the Digital Medical Products Act is an opportunity to dominate new markets such as digital therapeutics through the use of real-world data (RWD),” and added, “Companies must proactively establish cybersecurity and quality management strategies in line with the changed certification system and create new business opportunities.” Daeryun CEO Kim Kook-il said, “The role of the law firm is to help companies focus on their core business without wavering in the rapidly changing pharmaceutical and bio regulatory environment.” He added, “Daeryun will continue to “We will not miss out on changing industry trends and faithfully fulfill our role as a legal compass for the company’s sustainable growth,” he said.

However, even in the above case, if substantial identity is recognized between the two health care institutions, such as the opening location of the newly opened health care institution being the same or located nearby the previous health care institution and using a similar name, the patient demand base formed during the operation of the previous health care institution being the same or similar, or the transfer of human and material resources as is, there is a possibility that business suspension may still be considered possible for the newly opened health care institution by the operator who closed down the wrongful billing health care institution. Therefore, based solely on the conclusion of the above Supreme Court decision, considerable caution is required in cases where the business closes after an on-site investigation and before the suspension of business, and then opens a practice nearby under the same or similar name, or maintains an operating form to the extent that it is misunderstood as a medical institution that is virtually identical in appearance. Meanwhile, if the Ministry of Health and Welfare's on-site investigation confirms unfair claims and a medical institution that is at risk of being subject to a business suspension closes its business and no longer operates the institution, the business suspension becomes ineffective as a means of sanction. It should be noted that in such cases, a fine may be imposed instead of a business suspension. Ultimately, if unfair claims are confirmed as a result of the Ministry of Health and Welfare's on-site investigation, it is difficult to avoid administrative action in any form, whether it is a business suspension or a fine. So, what if the business closes before the investigation after selecting the target for the field investigation? In this regard, the Ministry of Health and Welfare's notice regulations, revised on June 30, 2022, stipulate that if business suspension is judged to be ineffective as a sanction because a medical institution has closed down before the administrative disposition is finalized or the institution subject to the disposition does not exist due to a change in the personality of the representative in a medical institution opened by a corporation, a fine may be imposed in lieu of a business suspension ('a fine in lieu of a business suspension') ‘Applicability Standards’ Article 2, Paragraph 2 (c). Accordingly, according to the above revised notice, even before the administrative disposition is confirmed, for example, before the on-site investigation by the Ministry of Health and Welfare is conducted, if unfair claims are confirmed through on-site confirmation by the National Health Insurance Corporation and the medical institution is selected as a target for on-site investigation, the risk of fine imposition still exists even if the relevant medical institution closes its business and avoids business suspension. However, if a specific administrative investigation, such as an on-site confirmation by the National Health Insurance Corporation, has not been conducted on a nursing facility that closed before the Ministry of Health and Welfare conducted an on-site investigation, there are still significant questions as to what standards and grounds can be used to impose fines.[View full article] [Contribution] Legal risks in case of closure of a nursing home before and after a field investigation by the Ministry of Health and Welfare (Click here) 2026-05-14T01:31:22.803Z https://www.daeryunlaw.com/en/broadcast/6078 Daeryun Law Firm announced on the 28th that it has launched the ‘School Violence Response Group’, a dedicated organization that covers the entire process from the initial response to dispute resolution and psychological recovery stages of school violence incidents. Recently, school violence disputes are expanding beyond the School Violence Response Committee (School Violence Committee) into a ‘complex war’ combining administrative, criminal, and civil matters. According to data from the Ministry of Education, the number of administrative lawsuits filed against the school violence committee increased from 255 cases in 2021 to 628 cases in 2023, an increase of approximately 2.5 times in two years. As school violence disputes become more structurally complex, the need for a more systematic and professional response is increasing. In line with this trend, Daeryun's School Violence Response Group operates a ‘one-stop support system’ that goes beyond simple legal assistance and connects professional infrastructure. In addition to analyzing evidence through the digital forensics center, we plan to organically provide psychological recovery support through professional counselors and personal protection services using security personnel to take responsibility for students' safe return to daily life. The group leader will be Cho Young-sam, a former judge of the juvenile division of the Chuncheon District Court. Attorney Cho heard many cases of juvenile protection and juvenile punishment while serving as a judge, and is an expert who understands the flow of juvenile justice practice. Attorney Gyu-seok Park, a former prosecutor, also joined the group. Attorney Park is in charge of special crimes and juvenile cases at the Chungju Branch of the Cheongju District Prosecutors' Office, and has handled major issues and investigative work in the process of converting school violence cases into criminal procedures. While working at the Gwangju Metropolitan Office of Education, Attorney Eun-jeong Na served as a working-level member of the school violence countermeasures committee and student disciplinary coordinator, and gained practical experience in overall procedures and disciplinary and protective measures at the education office level. Attorney Dae-won Kim, a lawyer specializing in school violence registered with the Korean Bar Association, He is serving as a member of the school violence response deliberation committee of the Incheon Metropolitan City Southern Office of Education, and has in-depth practical capabilities in the school violence committee deliberation structure and judgment standards. Management CEO Kim Kuk-il said, “School violence cases are high-level disputes in which juvenile justice, education administration, and investigative procedures operate simultaneously,” and added, “Daeryun has continuously advanced its response system based on professional manpower, practical experience, and infrastructure.” He then emphasized, “Through the school violence response group with a one-stop support system, we will present practical solutions so that students and families can return to a comfortable daily life.” Reporter Jin Ga-young news@lawissue.co.kr[View full article] Roishu - Daeryun launches ‘School Violence Response Group’… Establishment of a one-stop integrated response system (link) Seoul Shinmun - Daeryun Law Firm launches ‘School Violence Response Group’… Establishment of a one-stop response system (link) 2026-05-14T01:42:07.325Z https://www.daeryunlaw.com/en/broadcast/6077 Preemptively identify legal risks that may arise when entering the local market and provide practical solutions Daeryun “China and Vietnam are places where opportunities and risks conflict…an opportunity to prepare a specific strategy” Daeryun Law Firm and Korea-China Association announced on the 27th that they will hold a ‘Seminar on our companies’ legal issues and practical responses to China and Vietnam’ at FKI Tower in Yeouido, Seoul at 2 p.m. on the 11th of next month. This seminar will focus on rapidly changing business in China after the recent Korea-China summit. It was prepared to preemptively prepare for the Vietnamese market, which has established itself as a key point for the environment and global supply chain. Daeryun plans to examine legal risks that may arise when entering the local market and present practical solutions to help Korean companies make stable overseas investments. This seminar will be divided into two key sessions: China and Vietnam. In the first China session, attorney Daeryun Yoon Kyeong-won and Professor Park Seung-chan, president of the Korea-China Association and director of the China Management Research Institute, will appear as presenters. Attorney Yoon will share in-depth perspectives on ‘Types of legal issues and points to keep in mind when entering into China’, and Professor Park will share in-depth perspectives on ‘The recent Korea-China summit and our companies’ response.’ In the second Vietnam session, Attorney Daeryun Choi Young-jin will explain ‘Types of legal issues and points to keep in mind when entering into Vietnam’. In addition, KOTRA PM Choi Dong-cheol will take the podium to analyze and deliver local investment opportunities under the theme of ‘Vietnam investment support project, success stories, and introduction of investment opportunities.’ After all presentations, a Q&A session will be held to resolve practical difficulties of attendees and discuss response measures. Applications for participation can be made through the Daeryun official website. Anyone from a company considering or already entering China or Vietnam can apply. Daeryun Kim Kuk-il, CEO of Daeryun, said, “China and Vietnam are lands of infinite opportunity for our companies, but at the same time, they are places where unexpected legal disputes and risks exist.

Accordingly, the outcome of the class action lawsuit filed by domestic and foreign Coupang investors has become more important than before. Although it is strictly a separate issue, it is intertwined in the sense that it proves the background and core of the losses suffered by investors. As a shareholder who invested more than 200 billion won in Coupang, attention is being paid to whether the National Pension Service will initiate a class action lawsuit. According to related industries on the 26th, Greenox and Altimeter, investment companies in Coupang, recently requested the Office of the U.S. Trade Representative (USTR) to investigate the Korean government's Coupang-related measures and take appropriate trade relief measures. The investment companies stated the reason, saying that investors suffered enormous losses as the Korean government launched an intensive investigation targeting Coupang after Coupang's personal information was leaked. In addition, the investment companies submitted an International Investment Dispute (ISDS) letter of intent to arbitrate to the Korean government to file an arbitration claim under the Korea-U.S. Free Trade Agreement (FTA). These investors said, "Prime Minister Kim Min-seok said in relation to law enforcement for Coupang's information leak case, 'With the same determination as when eradicating the mafia. ISDS is a legal remedy through which a foreign investor can claim compensation for damages from the government when an investment loss is incurred due to the actions of the government of the investment host country. If an agreement is not reached within a certain period of time after the letter of intent to arbitrate is submitted, a formal arbitration procedure is initiated. As the information leak incident has become a common problem, the importance of the outcome of the class action lawsuit filed by Coupang shareholders has become greater than before. The U.S. branch of Daeryun Law Firm SJKP announced last month that it would officially file a consumer class action lawsuit against Coupang Inc in the New York Federal Court. In addition, We the People Law Office also filed a class action lawsuit against Coupang Inc and its key executives, including Chairman Kim Beom-seok, in the U.S. District Court for the Western District of Washington on behalf of domestic shareholders this month. The class action lawsuit filed by shareholders and the ISDS are currently separated in terms of legal procedures, but the core point is 'shareholder damage'. Coupang shareholders who filed the class action claim that 'Coupang's Their position is that they suffered losses due to information security failures, and the U.S. headquarters also exercised actual management rights and are not free from responsibility. If they actually win, this means that the American investment company's claim that it suffered losses due to the Korean government's investigation will lose its persuasiveness. SKJP's U.S. attorney Dong-hoo Son said, "The class action lawsuit on behalf of the victims is aimed at relieving specific damages to individuals in accordance with private contract and tort law, and focuses on the company's compliance with security obligations and governance failures. He added, "ISDS aims to protect investors' property rights based on international law and examines whether the Korean government's administrative measures are discriminatory or harsh." He added, "If the company's security failure and gross negligence are clearly proven in the class action lawsuit and a large-scale compensation judgment is issued, it could be decisive evidence supporting the legitimacy of the fine imposed by the Korean government in the ISDS." As a result, attention will also be focused on whether the National Pension Service will participate in the lawsuit. It appears that the National Pension Service is also a stakeholder holding about 218.1 billion won worth of Coupang stocks as of the end of 2024. Lee Young-gi, a lawyer at We the People Law Firm, said, "In the case of the National Pension Service, it also revealed that it will exercise shareholder rights for ESG, which was advocated in the recent presidential work report." He added, "If pension funds such as the National Pension Service, which are institutional investors who have suffered great damage from the decline in Coupang's stock price, participate, it will be easy to prove the sharp decline in the stock price." did.joongjp@yna.co.krsijung@yna.co.kr[View full article] US Coupang investment company ISDS notice...

As a result, the stock price fell and American investors suffered losses, which was cited as the reason for filing the dispute. On the New York Exchange on the 22nd local time, the stock price of Coupang's headquarters fell by nearly 30% compared to before the information leak. However, analysis suggests that Coupang is unlikely to win the dispute based only on the decline in the stock price. This is because it is not easy to prove both that government regulations are unfair and that they are the cause of the decline in stock prices.

Issues in ISDS/Article 301 ‘Coupang Incident’ (Shortcut) 2026-05-12T09:17:48.949Z https://www.daeryunlaw.com/en/broadcast/6072 “The most effective pressure” to delay taxation with retaliatory tariffs in France’s digital tax dispute… “A cool-headed diplomatic solution is needed.” Coupang’s U.S. investment company, venture capital (VC) Greenox and Altimeter, submitted a letter of intent to arbitrate an international investment dispute (ISDS) on the 22nd (local time) in opposition to the Korean government’s measures to regulate personal information leaks. They officially requested that the Office of the United States Trade Representative (USTR) investigate the Korean government and impose trade sanctions, including the imposition of tariffs. What U.S. investors presented as the basis for the USTR investigation is Article 301 of the Trade Act, so-called 'Super 301'. This is a legal means by which the United States can impose sanctions, such as retaliatory tariffs, on trading partners' unfair trade practices through presidential authority, and has been used as a core basis for major trade disputes in the past. Article 301 of the Trade Act was a major instrument of trade policy during the Trump administration. In 2018, the United States initiated a Section 301 investigation and imposed retaliatory tariffs on Chinese products due to China's infringement of intellectual property rights. This served as a means not only to resolve the U.S. trade deficit but also to demand system changes in other countries. In 2019, tariffs were imposed on aircraft and wine in the European Union (EU) due to subsidy payments to Airbus. The industry generally analyzes that this issue has a similar structure to the ‘French Digital Service Tax (DST) dispute’ in 2019. At the time, when France imposed taxes on American IT companies, USTR considered it an act of discrimination and opened an investigation. Afterwards, they announced the imposition of tariffs on French champagne, etc. and brought about a postponement of taxation. Coupang investment companies also define the Korean government's measures as 'discrimination against American companies', so the USTR's judgment in the future is drawing attention. Experts advise that we should keep in mind the possibility that this incident will spread beyond the individual Coupang issue and spread to Korea's major industries as a whole. Dong-hoo Son, an American lawyer at SJKP, said, “The essence of Article 301 is to find the most effective point of pressure to bring about policy changes in the other country’s government,” and analyzed, “It is a sufficiently realistic scenario for Korean semiconductors or automobiles to be placed on the retaliation list, as was the case in France.” He went on to say, "Article 301 has a strong tendency to be a political sword, and ISDS can be said to be a legal shield, but going through both procedures at the same time appears to be a diversionary operation." He added, "I am concerned that the risk of retaliation and astronomical compensation will act as a psychological and political binding force on policymakers." It is also pointed out that the structural specificity of Korea's data management system could become an issue in this dispute. Songcheon Moon, professor emeritus at KAIST Graduate School of Business, known as a world-renowned scholar on cyber DB security and the first national doctor of computer science, pointed out, “The U.S. claim is based on self-defense, and from their point of view, it is legal and reasonable.” Professor Moon advised, "The government will have to sufficiently prove that the weight and severity of damage from personal information leaks due to system differences between the two countries are different. The United States does not have a resident registration number, but Korea has a structure that has a lot of food for hackers due to the 'absolute ring' resident registration number." There are also voices calling for focusing on diplomatic solutions rather than overly interpreting the issue. Lee Jeong-hee, a professor of economics at Chung-Ang University, expressed caution, saying, "There has always been a trade controversy about foreign companies being disadvantaged, but in practical terms, there are not many cases where trade has become a major problem due to one specific company. It remains to be seen whether the U.S. government will actually take action." He emphasized, “We must continue to make people understand that we are not trying to diplomatically disadvantage a specific company, but rather hold them responsible for domestic damage.” Reporter Hwang Jeong-won (jwhwang@mt.co.kr)[View full article] France also suffered... The power of ‘Super 301 trillion’ summoned by Coupang (link) 2026-05-10T18:35:31.979Z https://www.daeryunlaw.com/en/broadcast/6071 The ISDS risk investigation team remains silent for 56 days due to differences of opinion between the ruling and opposition parties and out of session… Concerns about weakening negotiating power, burden of enforcement and gap… National Assembly Exit Strategy Dilemma As Coupang's American investors began International Investment Dispute (ISDS) procedures, the National Assembly's investigation into Coupang was placed in a fog from the beginning. As concerns grow that the political investigation could provide a pretext for international conflict during the 90-day cooling-off period, it is assessed that it has become unclear whether the government investigation will be launched in February. With both the enforcement of the investigation and the gap in response being pointed out as risks, how the National Assembly will design an exit strategy is emerging as a key task. According to the industry on the 23rd, Coupang's U.S. investment companies Greenox and Altimeter submitted a letter of intent for ISDS arbitration based on the Korea-U.S. Free Trade Agreement (FTA), claiming that they had suffered damages due to the Korean government's response following the Coupang personal information leak. ISDS is a system in which foreign investors seek a solution through international arbitration when they suffer losses due to the actions of the country in which they invested. The letter of intent to arbitrate is a preliminary procedure to inform the opposing government of the intention before filing formal arbitration. Following the submission of the letter of intention to arbitrate, the Korean government and U.S. investment companies are expected to enter into a 90-day cooling-off period of consultation, and the government investigation into Coupang is expected to virtually drift. The Democratic Party of Korea submitted a request for a government investigation to the National Assembly's Bill Division on December 31 last year, and the People Power Party submitted a request for a government investigation on the 8th. Due to the confrontation between the ruling and opposition parties over the leadership of the year-end and New Year's political situation and the internal circumstances of each party, an agreement on the agenda was in flux, and the report was made at the plenary session held on the 15th, 15 days after the Democratic Party's submission. The differences of opinion on the scope of the investigation were not narrowed, with the Democratic Party demanding an investigation focusing on Coupang, including information leaks and industrial accidents, and the People Power Party demanding an investigation into the overall personal information protection policy, including the three mobile communication companies and Temu and Ali. National Assembly blocked by external variables... With the National Assembly entering a non-session period ahead of the approval process for the plan that must confirm the scope of the investigation and witnesses due to concerns about counterattacks over 'retaliatory harassment', and external variables such as ISDS cooling-off period discussions overlapped, follow-up schedules, including the adoption of the government investigation plan, became difficult. Initially, it was expected that a full-scale investigation would be conducted after the opening of the extraordinary National Assembly in February, but as concerns over trade friction arose, some analysts say that the adoption of the plan itself has become uncertain. Experts point out that forcing a government investigation during the cooling-off period in the ISDS procedure could work at a disadvantage in the international arbitration arena. The cooling-off period is a time to seek an amicable agreement between the parties to the dispute, and if the level of pressure from the National Assembly increases during this period, there is a possibility that the investor side will take issue with this as a coercive measure. Dong-hoo Son, an American lawyer at SJKP, said, "During the cooling-off period, the government or the National Assembly pushing for an investigation or increasing pressure may be regarded as retaliatory harassment to force investors to submit. From the government's perspective, it has no choice but to face a dilemma between enforcing domestic law and preventing friction in trade, and may create an unfavorable situation for itself in an international trial. “It could lead to negative results,” he explained. Concerns about weakening the government’s negotiating power… 'Exit strategy' amid uncertainty As the confirmation of the official facts by the public-private joint investigation team was delayed, separate from the important government investigation, the government faced structural limitations in having to respond without the results of the domestic investigation or political agreement during the process of negotiation and explanation with American investment companies. Although 42 days have passed since the investigation team was officially launched on December 13 last year, there has still been no official announcement of investigation results. It has been 56 days since the incident occurred (November 29). It is pointed out that the situation in which the government has to respond to international disputes without clear confirmation of facts is weakening the government's negotiating power. Lee Jeong-hoon, professor of economics at Chung-Ang University, said, "The delay in the investigation team's announcement is a factor that amplifies market uncertainty," and predicted, "Investor anxiety arising from the absence of clear investigation results is likely to be passed on to the Korean government in future disputes." He continued, "If there is a situation where the investigation is delayed, efforts must be made to resolve uncertainty, such as clearly disclosing this." If the political foundation to support the legitimacy and transparency of the government's response is weakened, the risk may spread throughout the industry. This is because this dispute could increase uncertainty about overall cooperation in strategic industries between Korea and the United States, such as semiconductors and batteries. There are concerns that the gap in the National Assembly's response within the 90-day cooling-off period may go beyond the current issues and lead to a decline in external credibility and an increase in trade risks. Considering public opinion, it is not realistically easy to completely stop the National Assembly's response, so it is pointed out that the National Assembly must plan an exit strategy well. Professor Lee said, “Completely suspending the National Assembly’s functions just by filing for international arbitration is not in line with the legal sentiments of domestic victims and the public,” and suggested, “The National Assembly should continue its original role, including providing relief for damage, while maintaining a cool response that minimizes legal defects.” Reporter Go Hyeon-sol (sol@mt.co.kr)[View full article] International investment dispute ‘90-day cooling off period’… Coupang government investigation is in danger of being stranded (link) 2026-05-10T03:00:10.541Z https://www.daeryunlaw.com/en/broadcast/6068 Daeryun Law Firm announced on the 23rd that it was selected as an excellent law firm in the field of trademark litigation at the 'Korea Law Firm Awards 2025' hosted by Asia Business Law Journal (ABLJ), a legal magazine in Asia. Every year, ABLJ, a leading legal media in the Asia-Pacific region headquartered in Hong Kong, conducts an in-depth survey of in-house lawyers, law firm lawyers, and legal experts around the world. It selects and announces excellent law firms that have achieved remarkable results in each field throughout the year.

This dessert, which is a reinterpretation of Dubai chocolate and has a chewy texture by wrapping kadaif and pistachio in marshmallows, is gaining explosive popularity mainly on social media, causing a sell-out crisis. There has even been a strange phenomenon in which douchonku is made and sold not in cafes or bakeries, but in general restaurants such as sushi or soup restaurants that seem to have nothing to do with desserts. Recently, it is no exaggeration to say that the whole world is caught up in the doojokku craze, with young people holding open runs in front of blood donation centers after hearing that doojokku will be given to those who donate blood. In fact, if you look at second-hand trading platforms such as Carrot Market, you can see that the doojokku purchased at the store are being resold for a higher price or that there is a flood of purchase request posts saying, 'I'm looking for a doojokku.' Furthermore, many posts are found reselling ingredients needed to make dujokku, such as kadaif noodles and pistachios. It may have started with a light heart or to earn a small amount of pocket money, but the act of selling opened food in small pieces is not only prohibited by platforms such as Carrot due to concerns about hygiene, but also carries the risk of developing into legal problems. Food is a field directly related to the health and safety of the public, so legal regulations are very strict. First, according to Article 37, Paragraph 4 of the Food Sanitation Act, anyone who wishes to manufacture, process and sell food must report or register their business with the competent government office. Anyone who violates this and operates without reporting may be subject to imprisonment for up to 3 years or a fine of up to 30 million won in accordance with Article 97 of the same Act. There are also harsher punishment provisions. Article 4, Paragraph 7 of the Food Sanitation Act strictly prohibits the act of selling ‘products manufactured, processed, or distributed by persons other than business operators.’ If you violate this, you may be subject to severe punishment of up to 10 years in prison or a fine of up to 100 million won in accordance with Article 94 of the same Act. In other words, in principle, it is against the law to sell home-made dujoku without reporting the business or to arbitrarily divide and sell douchoku purchased at a store into small quantities. Of course, it is very rare for an individual to be immediately arrested and investigated for selling small quantities. If it is a first offense or the case is minor, administrative guidance or fines are often applied first. However, it should be noted that the surveillance network of investigative agencies has recently expanded beyond offline to online as well. The Ministry of Food and Drug Safety constantly monitors illegal advertisements online through its cyber investigation team. Carrot Market, a platform operator, is also aware of these risks and is taking crackdown measures through monitoring and prohibiting trade in food products directly processed and manufactured by individuals. In other words, even if someone does not report it, there is always the possibility of being caught up in the systematic surveillance and crackdown network. Therefore, if by chance you become the subject of an investigation by an investigative agency due to such a transaction, you should focus on proving that the act was unintentional and that business feasibility was significantly low rather than vaguely complaining of unfairness. In order to establish a violation of the Food Sanitation Act, there must be a business activity with the intention to continue and repeat, so it must be actively asserted that the number of sales was one-time or one-off or that there was virtually no actual profit. In addition, as an ordinary person, not a professional seller, you must explain with specific transaction details and circumstantial evidence that it was an accidental act due to legal grounds. Through this, efforts should be made to clear the charges at the investigation stage and prevent unfair punishment that may occur. ● Contributions by external writers may differ from the editorial direction of this paper.

(Shortcut) 2026-05-12T07:53:59.285Z https://www.daeryunlaw.com/en/broadcast/6058 KT and LGU+ also file an administrative lawsuit against the Personal Information Protection Commission's fine disposition. Security incidents also occur... Keeping a close eye on the court results. The battle between SK Telecom (hereinafter referred to as SKT) and the Personal Information Protection Commission over the 134.8 billion won fine has entered a new phase. This is because SKT disobeyed the fine imposed on the USIM information leakage hacking incident and filed an administrative lawsuit. This lawsuit, which is the first dispute since the launch of CEO Jeong Jae-heon's regime, is expected to have a significant impact not only on the standards for calculating fines but also on the personal information liability structure of the telecommunications industry as a whole, depending on the court's judgment. According to the industry on the 20th, SKT filed an administrative lawsuit on the 19th to appeal the fine imposed by the Personal Information Protection Commission in relation to the USIM information leakage hacking incident. SKT explained the background of the lawsuit, saying, “We would like to receive a thorough judgment from the court regarding the appropriateness of the fine.” SKT had customer SIM information stolen due to a hacker attack in April last year. As a result, 26.96 million pieces of core information including phone numbers and subscriber identification keys (IMSI) were leaked. The Personal Information Commission imposed a fine of 134.791 billion won and a fine of 9.6 million won for the incident in August last year. This is the largest fine since the launch of the Personal Information Commission. At the time, Personal Information Commissioner Ko Hak-soo pointed out, “There were overall security vulnerabilities, and even though we were aware of this for a long time, we missed the opportunity to take action.” The issue was ‘transience’… The issue of whether the principle of proportionality is violated is whether the fine is excessive compared to the violation. The industry believes that SKT will bring to the fore the violation of the principle of proportionality in fines. The principle of proportionality is the principle that means for achieving administrative purposes must have a reasonable proportional relationship with the purpose and that no more sanctions than necessary should be imposed. In accordance with the revised Personal Information Protection Act, the Personal Information Protection Commission calculated a fine of 3% based on total sales, not sales directly related to illegal activities. In response, SKT is expected to argue that sanctions based on total sales are a measure that excessively expands the scope of responsibility, considering the nature of the incident caused by an external attack such as hacking. “There is no large-scale investment or secondary damage.” Legal dispute In a case where personal information is leaked, the business operator may dispute legal responsibility over whether it has fulfilled its obligations to ensure safety under the Personal Information Protection Act. However, in this lawsuit, SKT is focusing on the appropriateness of the fine rather than completely denying the violation of the safety measure obligation itself. The court is also likely to base its judgment on the appropriateness of the level of sanctions rather than the illegality itself. Ji-woon Jang, an attorney at Daeryun Law Firm, said, “SKT will emphasize that the accident occurred even though it implemented the protective measures required by the technology level and industry practices at the time,” and added, “It is likely to mention that it made large-scale security investments and system improvements after the accident and that no secondary damage occurred.” “Considering that the fine is excessive, the key issue will be whether the level of sanctions is appropriate for the act of violating the law.” The ruling is expected to spread throughout the telecommunications industry. The ruling is not limited to SKT and is expected to have an impact on the entire telecommunications industry. Currently, KT is facing a fine from the Personal Information Commission after the public-private joint investigation team concludes. LG U+ is currently under police investigation on charges of obstruction of official duties surrounding the disposal of hacked servers. In these cases, the company's response after the accident can also be a major factor in determining legal responsibility. If SKT wins, all or part of the fine will be canceled. Naturally, the Personal Information Commission's method of calculating the overall sales standard is also put on hold. In particular, if a partial cancellation or reduction ruling is issued, a standard may be proposed that the standard for calculating fines in personal information infringement and hacking cases should be more strictly considered. Conversely, if SKT loses, the method of calculating fines based on total sales applied by the Personal Information Commission will be recognized as justified by the judiciary. This may lead to an interpretation that broadly holds companies responsible for managing personal information protection regardless of whether or not they suffered hacking damage. In addition, it is highly likely that the intensity of regulation on large-scale personal information processing businesses, including telecommunications companies, will be further increased. There are observations that with the expansion of security investments in telecommunications companies, it will become inevitable to revise management strategies to reflect potential regulatory risks. One telecommunications industry official said, “This ruling will serve as a standard for measuring the extent to which fines based on total sales are tolerated by the judiciary,” adding, “It is highly likely that it will remain as a precedent that determines the direction of the telecommunications industry and the domestic personal information sanctions system as a whole.”[View full article] SKT CEO Jeong Jae-hyun refuses to pay a fine of KRW 134.8 billion...

Claiming, "It is acknowledged that there was a point of inappropriateness, but it cannot be said that his mental health was impaired." An English teacher who cursed and administered corporal punishment to an academy student was cleared of charges. On the 8th, the Gwangju District Prosecutors' Office decided not to indict Mr. A, a man in his 30s who was sent on charges of child abuse and defamation. Mr. A was in the academy classroom in March last year. He was accused of abusing middle school student B, calling him a 'mentally ill person', swearing at him, and hitting his palm about 100 times with an empty plastic bottle. The academy, which recognized the abuse after Mr. A left the company, filed a complaint and the investigation began. Mr. A admitted the facts themselves, but denied intentionality of the abuse. He said, "B's academic attitude was insincere, such as suddenly joking or acting unexpectedly during class," and "B's mother disciplined him. The prosecution accepted Mr. A's claim. It was determined that it was difficult to say that the suspect's words and actions caused damage to the child's body or amounted to abuse equivalent to abandonment or neglect. The prosecution explained, "It is acknowledged that the suspect's words and actions were inappropriate, but there is insufficient evidence to show that the child's mental health was impaired as a result, such as receiving psychological treatment." In addition, regarding the charge of defamation, "The suspect's He added, “It is difficult to acknowledge the intentionality of the statement as it was only a one-off, and the content is closer to an expression of subjective opinion rather than lowering the social evaluation of the child victim, so it is difficult to say that it stated the facts.” Attorney Kang Jeong-hoon of Daeryun Law Firm, who represented Mr. A, said, “In order for emotional abuse of a child to be recognized, the level of harm to mental health and development must be recognized beyond simply an act that may cause discomfort,” adding, “While the client honestly acknowledges the facts, the act in question must be recognized as disciplinary action.” He explained, "We were able to obtain a good result by legally proving that this was the purpose."[View full article] “You are a mental patient…” Why is the English teacher who insulted a first-year middle school student not prosecuted for child abuse?

In particular, with the news that the police confiscated the server and launched a large-scale investigation, even simple viewers are trembling with fear as they do not know when the police will arrive. On the 20th, we had a phone interview with Kim In-won, head of the criminal group at Daeryun Law Firm, to hear about legal matters related to the distribution and viewing of pornography. Group leader Kim was appointed as a prosecutor at the Incheon District Prosecutors' Office and served as the chief prosecutor at the Seoul Central District Prosecutors' Office and the Seoul Northern District Prosecutors' Office, investigating sex crimes, special and financial cases for over 30 years. He joined Daeryun in May 2022. The following is a Q&A with Group Chairman Kim. - The N Room incident caused public outrage and punishment was strengthened. Nevertheless, why do digital sex crimes like AVMOV not disappear? “The biggest cause is blind faith in anonymity and distorted profit structure. Criminals have the mistaken belief that they are safe if they hide behind technical barriers such as bypassing overseas servers and paying with virtual currency. There is still a market structure that makes money by distributing provocative videos, and I think the fact that users can easily access it and the complacent perception that it is not a big crime are also contributing to maintaining the demand for crime.” - ‘If you pay with coins, a record is maintained. There are many people who believe that it will not be left behind. "Major domestic and international coin exchanges are obliged to provide subscriber information upon requests for cooperation from investigative agencies. Due to the nature of blockchain, fund flows are permanently recorded and tracked to the end. As soon as the operator's wallet address is identified, it is only a matter of time before the identity of all members who sent coins there is revealed." - If you claim that you watched it thinking it was a legal adult content and did not know it was a crime video. "It is difficult to clear the suspicion simply by subjectively stating that you did not know. For example, objective circumstantial evidence must be comprehensively considered, such as the path by which the site was accessed, whether the title or thumbnail of the video implied illegality, and the viewing time. If illegality is clearly revealed in the file name or thumbnail, scientific proof such as access log analysis is necessary to refute the illegality." - Punishment for downloading, possessing or redistributing illegal videos beyond viewing. The level of crime is: "Possession and storage are more serious crimes than viewing. This is because it carries the risk of being viewed again and distributed at any time. Furthermore, if you re-distribute it, you can be punished at almost the same level as the person who first distributed it. In particular, if you distribute child and adolescent sexual exploitation material, you can be sentenced to more than 3 years in prison, so it is highly likely that even a first-time offender will be sentenced to prison without probation." - Asking to upload a high-level video or mocking the victim. Will users who leave comments be subject to different punishments than those who simply watched? "Any act of encouraging a crime or ridiculing the victim through comments beyond simple viewing is accepted by investigative agencies and courts as strong evidence of active participation in a crime. Legally, a charge of aiding and abetting the spreader's crime may be applied, and if a specific video is requested, it may be interpreted as the domain of an educator or a co-principal. Additionally, if you continue to participate within the site through comments that specify and ridicule the victim, you may be subject to defamation or defamation under the Information and Communications Network Act. Additional charges of insult are applied under the Criminal Act, so it is highly likely that a much heavier sentence will be imposed than that of a simple viewer." Reporter Baek Jae-hyun (itbrian@newsis.com)[View full article] “We don’t use the ‘I didn’t know’ excuse… We need to change the complacent perception of digital sex crimes” (link) 2026-05-08T13:23:11.323Z https://www.daeryunlaw.com/en/broadcast/6054 Winter is a season when one small spark can easily spread into a large fire. The risk of indoor fires is particularly high during this period when the use of heating appliances increases rapidly. In the case of an indoor fire, special caution is required as the worst outcome can be loss of life and it can also lead to criminal punishment and huge civil compensation claims. The legal issue in fire accidents lies in the degree of intent and negligence. According to Article 164 of the Criminal Act (Arson of existing buildings), a person who intentionally sets fire to an existing building shall be punished by imprisonment for life or more than three years. On the other hand, the crime of accidentally starting a fire (Article 170 of the Criminal Act) is subject to a fine of less than 15 million won. The problem arises in ambiguous situations. Even if there was no definite intention, the court applies the crime of arson if “a fire was neglected while knowing that it could start.” Additionally, if a fire is caused by professional negligence or gross negligence (nearly intentional negligence), the person is subject to imprisonment for up to 3 years or a fine of up to 20 million won under Article 171 of the Criminal Act. In particular, if it is recognized as a misfire, not only is it subject to criminal punishment, but also liability for damages under Article 750 of the Civil Act cannot be reduced in compensation according to the special provisions of the Act on Liability for Misfire, and you may have to pay a huge amount of compensation. Therefore, it is most important to prove that it was not a ‘premeditated crime’ from the early stages of the investigation. Attorney Kim Jong-seo of Daeryun Law Firm recently took charge of the case of Mr. A, a client who almost became an arsonist due to a moment of mistake. Mr. A was booked on charges of attempted arson of a Hyeonju building by lighting an eco-bag at his home on fire with a lighter while intoxicated. The police strongly argued for indictment, saying that Mr. A had a ‘definite intention’ to set the fire based on the fact that he lit the fire himself using a lighter. Accordingly, a defense strategy was developed based on objective evidence. First, the fact that Mr. A voluntarily called 119 immediately after lighting the fire, legally argued that this constitutes an attempted surrender and arrest under the law. In addition, he suffered mental pain due to the death of a family member, and medical records proved that he was mentally and physically weak at the time of the incident. In addition, photos from the scene proved that the fire only caused some scorching of the eco bag and wallpaper and did not pose a public risk. As a result, the prosecution issued a suspended indictment conditional on completion of training to prevent recidivism, and the client was able to avoid the risk of becoming a criminal record and protect his life as a social worker. Attorney Kim Jong-seo of the Daeryun Law Firm said, "Immediately after a fire, there is no situation and there are many cases in which statements against oneself are made, but even a single statement can greatly change the level of punishment and the outcome of liability for compensation." He emphasized, “Only by establishing a response strategy that lowers the degree of negligence can we avoid the double whammy of criminal punishment and civil litigation.” Global Epic CP Lee Soo-hwan / lsh@globalepic.co.kr Winter fire accidents increase rapidly...

Paying attention to the results of the first trial for tram traffic obstruction, the National Coalition for the Elimination of Discrimination against Persons with Disabilities (Jeon Jang-yeon) held a rally on the 19th to mark the 1,000th day of the subway propaganda campaign on the way to work and urged the Seoul Metropolitan Government to make a decision to guarantee the right to mobility for the disabled. He also hinted at the possibility of resuming protests, saying that if there is no policy change from the Seoul Metropolitan Government, “I will have no choice but to take the subway again.” Jeon Jang-yeon has temporarily suspended subway protests until the local elections in June following a policy meeting with Seoul mayoral candidates from the Democratic Party of Korea. On the morning of the 19th, Jeon Jang-yeon held an event called '1000 Days of Subway Propaganda on the way to work' at Hyehwa Station on Subway Line 4 in Jongno-gu, Seoul. Justice Party leader Kwon Young-guk, as well as officials from the Progressive Party and the Basic Income Party, also attended the event. Seoul Mayor Oh Se-hoon, who had previously been offered a meeting by Jeon Jang-yeon, did not attend. A performance of writing and attaching post-it notes was held immediately after the 1,000-day propaganda campaign began. Soon, more than 40 post-it notes were attached to the platform. The post-it notes included things like, ‘1,000 days have passed, 10,000 days have passed, and I won’t get tired until 100,000 days.’ ‘We are all mobility-disadvantaged or people who will be mobility-disadvantaged.’ Jeon Jang-yeon criticized the Seoul Metropolitan Government and Mayor Oh Se-hoon for ignoring the guarantee of actual rights by dismissing the mobility rights of the disabled as a matter of conflict. It was also made clear that if the Seoul Metropolitan Government does not change its policy, it may resume subway riding. Park Gyeong-seok, CEO of Jeon Jang-yeon, said, “If the (movement) rights that the city of Seoul is talking about are not actually guaranteed, we will have no choice but to take the subway again.” Jeon Jang-yeon has been carrying out propaganda campaigns demanding guaranteed mobility rights for the disabled on subway platforms during rush hour, using the International Day of Persons with Disabilities on December 2021 as an opportunity. As a result, trains were delayed for up to tens of minutes. There were about 4,500 inconvenience and complaint complaints filed with the Seoul Transportation Corporation last year alone. On this day, there was also friction with some citizens during the event. One man protested by shouting, “Oh, it’s so noisy,” and another man uttered an expletive. Jeon Jang-yeon has decided to temporarily suspend subway protests until the day of the June 3 local elections. This is while accepting the proposal to postpone protests and hold policy meetings by Democratic Party lawmaker Kim Young-bae, who announced his intention to run for mayor of Seoul. Investigation and trial are in progress... There is a high possibility of being guilty of 'obstruction of tram traffic'. Some predict that the result of the first trial verdict on charges of obstructing tram traffic following the subway demonstration by some activists of Jeon Jang-yeon will have an impact on the method of protests by Jeon Jang-yeon in the future. The police have received a number of complaints and accusations against Jeon Jang-yeon activists from the Seoul Transportation Corporation and civic groups, including obstruction of business and tram traffic, and are investigating. On the 29th, the results of the first trial on charges of obstructing tram traffic against two Jeon Jang-yeon activists will be announced. They were handed over to trial on charges of disrupting the smooth operation of trains during a propaganda campaign in April 2022 and April 2023. Experts predicted that there was a good chance that the court would find the Jeon Jang-yeon activists guilty of obstructing tram traffic. Kwak Joon-ho, a lawyer at Cheong Law Firm, said, "It will be difficult for the court to say no to obstruction, so there is a high possibility that a conviction will be found. However, we will try to minimize the sentence." Seok Sang-yeop, a lawyer at Ilo Law Firm, also said, "It is unlikely that a person will be found guilty when he or she obstructs traffic during a rally. However, when tram traffic is repeatedly and deliberately obstructed, as in this case, and citizens are harmed as a result, the possibility of a conviction is higher than in normal cases." At the same time, he said, "If the level of obstruction is to the extent of delaying the operation of the train, such as actually forcing the train door open or lying down on the tracks, then (the charge) is established." If a guilty verdict is found, propaganda campaigns within the station will be possible, but there are observations that it will be difficult to maintain the method of protest that actively delays the operation of the subway. In particular, it is predicted that if a guilty verdict is found, the investigative agency may conduct a more active investigation or even consider arresting the offender in the future. Nam Kwon-yul, an attorney at the Daeryun Law Firm, said, "These precedents effectively function as guidelines for investigative agencies and have the effect of maintaining a constant standard and direction for investigation and prosecution for similar protest actions."

It was prepared. Sean Elgut, the founder and Washington DC representative of Veritas Collegiate Academy, a prestigious private school, and his wife, as well as global real estate and finance experts, showed great interest. The seminar consisted of four sessions in which legal, tax, accounting, and overseas legal experts participated. Chan-Woo Jeong, CEO of Daeryun Management, who took charge of the first session, analyzed practical changes resulting from the Constitutional Court's decision, such as the abolition of inheritance decentralization between siblings, under the theme of 'Korea's asset succession laws and precedent trends.' Representative Jeong emphasized, “As we live in an era where the wishes of the deceased are respected, elaborate preliminary planning that takes into account the red tape of wills and reasons for inheritance disqualification is essential.” In the following session, Dong-hoo Son, an attorney from New York, USA, presented on the topic of ‘American asset succession laws and cases.’ Attorney Son warned of the dangers of the difficult probate process that must be followed when holding assets in the United States. He presented asset management models that meet global standards, such as ‘Living Trust’ and ‘Establishment of LLC’, as key means to safely protect assets. In the last session, tax accountant Lee Joo-hee and accountant Park Soo-jin introduced professional tax saving strategies. Tax accountant Lee Joo-hee explained the risks of global asset taxation based on residency determination and measures to prevent double taxation. Accountant Park Soo-jin received a positive response by presenting a tax-saving simulation by share structure using the family business inheritance deduction and gift tax special taxation system with a maximum limit of KRW 60 billion. Kim Kuk-il, CEO of Daeryun Management, said, “This seminar was an opportunity to showcase Daeryun’s unique integrated solution encompassing domestic law, U.S. state law, and complex international taxation.” He added, “We will continue to utilize our global network to provide various opportunities to solve entrepreneurs’ complex asset succession concerns in one stop.” Reporter Jeong Cheol-wook[View full article] Seoul Shinmun - Daeryun Law Firm successfully concludes seminar on ‘Future Family Business Succession and Global Asset Management’ (Go here) Roishu - Daeryun Law Firm successfully completed seminar on ‘Future Family Business Succession and Global Asset Management’ (Click here) 2026-05-14T06:57:42.628Z https://www.daeryunlaw.com/en/broadcast/6050 Recently, the prosecution indicted about 50 people, including famous instructors so-called 'one-way instructors', officials of large entrance exam institutes, and current and former teachers. They are accused of providing money to teachers who have experience in writing CSAT or mock assessment questions and purchasing questions, or obtaining questions in advance of EBS textbooks before they are published and using them for private education content. The investigative authorities judged this to be a serious issue that undermined the fairness of the educational field, applied charges such as violation of the Anti-Corruption Act and obstruction of business, and sent those involved to trial. What is noteworthy in this case is that not only the teacher who received the money and the private education officials who provided it, but also the private education company stood before the law. This suggests that customary external cooperation or consulting contracts can become legal risks that can push the entire company into crisis. The Anti-Corruption Act was introduced to ensure fair performance of duties by public officials, but in corporate practice, problems often arise due to misunderstanding of its scope of application. ‘Public officials, etc.’ as defined by the law broadly includes not only public officials, but also faculty and staff of schools at all levels, including private schools, and executives and employees of school corporations and media companies. In other words, when a company enters into a contract with an external expert for the purposes of marketing, consulting, lectures, etc., if the other party is included in the list of 'public officials, etc.', the Anti-Corruption Act will apply without exception. From a company's point of view, the most fatal thing is the dual penalty provision. The Anti-Graft Act stipulates that fines or fines be imposed not only on the employee who commits a violation but also on the corporation to which he or she belongs. In this case as well, if it is acknowledged that an academy official provided money or valuables to a teacher in connection with work, it is difficult for the academy corporation to avoid punishment as well. In particular, a key issue in sentencing is whether there was organizational direction or assistance at the corporate level during the investigation process, or whether considerable attention and supervision was exercised to prevent violations. Therefore, companies must internalize the following principles in their compliance system from a risk management perspective. First, there is a need to make identity verification procedures mandatory for transaction partners. This means that when signing an advisory contract or requesting a lecture, a process must be in place to check in advance whether the other party is a ‘public official, etc.’ under the Anti-Graft Act. In particular, it must be clearly recognized that teachers at private schools, not public schools, and media personnel are also eligible, and if necessary, they must be requested to provide proof of prior approval from the head of the relevant institution. Next, it is necessary to establish an objective basis for calculating legitimate rights. The law recognizes as an exception the receipt of money or valuables based on legitimate authority. However, as in this case, paying an amount that far exceeds the normal market price or paying money in the name of consulting fees without specific service results is highly likely to be considered a bribe or illegal money or valuables. When paying for external services, companies must establish reasonable standards based on market unit prices and thoroughly verify whether the contract details match the actual work performed. The last important principle is the prohibition of using confidential and undisclosed information in the course of work. When a company pays a fee to obtain information from a public official, etc., if the information is classified as an official secret, this may not only violate the Anti-Corruption Act but also extend to crimes such as obstruction of business or breach of trust. Even if a legally legal contract has been concluded, if the actual information exchanged is undisclosed internal information obtained by the other party in the course of his or her job, this is considered an illegal act. Therefore, it is necessary to closely monitor the work progress of related departments where information is frequently collected, such as external cooperation or strategic planning, and constantly check whether the source and circumstances of information obtained by executives and employees are within legal boundaries. Compliance capabilities have now become a key indicator of a company's sustainability. Establishing a preemptive risk management system beyond passive responses to avoid the law is the surest way to protect corporate trust and secure competitiveness. It is a time when the entire organization, from management to working-level employees, needs to make efforts to increase legal sensitivity and make ethical management part of its constitution.

(Shortcut) 2026-05-12T12:25:48.055Z https://www.daeryunlaw.com/en/broadcast/6049 Daeryun Law Firm announced on the 16th that it has launched the 'Franchise Business Damage Relief Task Force (TF)' to respond to the rapidly increasing franchise business disputes. According to the 'Results of the 2025 Franchise Field Survey' released by the Fair Trade Commission, poor sales, unfair trading practices, and distrust of settlement methods were pointed out as the main reasons why franchise owners are considering terminating their contracts. In particular, focusing on restaurants and industries closely related to daily life, franchise headquarters and It has been found that there is an increasing number of cases where conflicts between store owners lead to structural problems. This TF was established to structurally analyze and systematically respond to disputes that repeatedly occur throughout the franchise business, such as refund of franchise fees, unclear settlement structure, designation of essential items, and raw and subsidiary material transaction issues. The TF is led by attorney Gye-jun Son, head of the Daeryun Corporate Legal Group. In addition, Attorney Shin Jong-soo, head of the Corporate Advisory Center of the Corporate Legal Group, joined and strengthened his expertise. Attorney Son is a former secretary of the Fair Trade Commission and has accumulated expertise in the field of franchise and fair trade by directly conducting deliberations and investigations on cases of violation of the Franchise Business Act and regular investigations of large-scale franchise headquarters. Attorney Shin has a lot of experience in responding to large-scale group disputes, such as the Timon and WeMakePrice incidents. In addition, labor lawyer In-tae Bang, lawyer Ji Min-hee, who has accumulated expertise in fair trade and corporate consulting, lawyer Jang Ji-woon, who served as managing director of a KOSDAQ-listed company, and lawyer Kim Dae-gil, who practiced compliance, contract, and financial accounting law at many companies, joined the task force. In addition, experts in accounting, tax, and labor have joined the task force. We provide a 'one-stop damage relief service' that goes beyond the review of legal principles and encompasses finance, accounting, and labor by providing a 'one-stop damage relief service' that encompasses finance, accounting, and labor by analyzing the settlement system of the franchise headquarters, calculating unpaid balances, and inspecting labor risks during the franchise operation process. Attorney Dae-Ryun Son Gye-Jun said, "Unfair acts taking advantage of the franchise headquarters' superior position are not simply violations of the law, but are directly related to the livelihood of store owners," and added, "We provide support and collective response from various angles so that store owners can receive actual damage relief. “We plan to carry out the procedures in parallel,” he said. Daeryun is currently preparing to operate a damage reporting center for franchise businesses, and plans to present effective solutions focused on protecting store owners through the damage reporting center in the future.

"There are differences for each individual hair test... I cannot be certain that he took the drug on the given date." A man in his 30s who was put on trial on charges of taking Philopon was found not guilty in the first trial. The Wonju Branch of the Chuncheon District Court found Mr. A not guilty on charges of violating the Narcotic Drugs Control Act (Hyangjeong) in December of last year. Mr. A was found not guilty at his residence in March last year. He was suspected of taking Philopon. At the time, the police judged that the charge was clear, citing the fact that Mr. A showed abnormal behavior such as not being able to control his body or self-harming when he was arrested for a separate assault case, and that the National Institute of Forensic Science's hair analysis results tested positive for Philopon. Mr. A denied the charge. Although the substance could be detected in his hair due to his past history of drug use, he claimed that he had not taken the drug on the date specified in the indictment. “A detailed urine test conducted 10 days after the incident resulted in a negative response,” he countered, adding, “Considering the normal drug excretion period, if he had actually taken drugs, the urine test should have come back positive as well.” He also emphasized that the abnormal behavior at the time of arrest was a blackout side effect caused by consuming cold medicine, sleeping pills, and alcohol together due to extreme depression and stress. The court ruled in Mr. A’s favor. The court explained, "It is true that drug substances were detected in the defendant's hair, but since there are individual differences in hair tests, it is difficult to conclude from this alone that the drug was administered at the time stated in the indictment." The court then questioned the credibility of the statement of Mr. B, a housemate, who was the only direct evidence. The court said, "In addition to the fact that Mr. He added, "Considering that the urine test results were also negative, it is difficult to say that the charges have been proven beyond a reasonable doubt." Attorney Min-young Han of the law firm Daeryun, who represented Mr. A, said, "The prosecution indicted based only on the defendant's abnormal behavior and positive hair results, but impeached the indictment by scientifically analyzing the timing discrepancy in the urine test results." He said, “Being clear can lead to good results.”[View full article] "The test result was positive for hair..." Man in his 30s found not guilty on charges of using Philopon 'Why?'

Daeryun Law Firm announced on the 15th that it will hold a webinar (online seminar) '2025 Pharmaceutical and Bio Sector Settlement - Medical, Bio and Healthcare Group Seminar' on the 28th. The lecturer will be attorney Lee Il-hyung, head of Daeryun Pharmaceutical Bio Healthcare Center. This lawyer, who holds a pharmacist's license, is an expert with extensive litigation experience, ranging from pharmaceutical patent disputes to healthcare regulatory response and legal advice. The webinar largely consists of analyzing precedents and examining major laws and regulations in the pharmaceutical and bio fields of last year. In particular, attorney Lee Il-hyung personally carries out cases and delivers practical implications focusing on major precedents in which legal principles were argued. First, through the '13-valent pneumococcal vaccine ruling', we look in detail at the latest issues in the patent field, such as ▲whether the production of semi-finished products constitutes patent infringement (direct infringement) ▲the principle of territoriality and the meaning of domestic production ▲the scope of application of exceptions to experimental implementation (research purposes) under the Patent Act. Next, we analyze rulings related to illegal dispatch, a chronic risk in the pharmaceutical industry, from a human resources and labor perspective. The key issue is whether compliance with the main contractor's standard operating instructions (SOP) can be viewed as actual command and order. Attorney Lee plans to explain the criteria for judging illegal dispatch based on relevant precedents and present specific risk management measures for the operation of subcontractors in the pharmaceutical and bio industry. Lastly, we plan to examine changes in major laws and regulations, such as the 'Digital Medical Products Act' that has been in effect since last year, and share compliance points that companies should not miss and practical countermeasures. Daeryun Kim Kook-il, CEO of Management, said, "Patents, regulations, and employment structures are intertwined in the biopharmaceutical industry, so even a single ruling can have a significant impact on corporate management. Through this webinar, it will be an opportunity to obtain practical risk management solutions that can be immediately applied to the field based on the perspective of lawyer Lee, who has personally handled related cases."

A man who posted a message saying he would kill a foreigner on an internet community was cleared of charges due to lack of evidence reaching the victim. The Seoul Central District Prosecutors' Office decided not to indict a man in his 30s, Mr. A, who was sent on charges of public intimidation in December of last year. In October of last year, Mr. A posted on the bulletin board of an anonymous office worker community, 'If you enter Korea, He was accused of posting a post titled 'Sending all Egyptians to the underworld', along with a purchase history of a Japanese sword and a baseball bat. Mr. A is known to have deleted the post a few hours after he wrote it. Mr. A completely denied the charges. He said, "At the time of writing, I was extorted of 10 million won worth of money by a local person during a business trip to Egypt and the goods were confiscated at customs, so I wrote this out of resentment," and "It was just an accidental expression of emotion, but I did not commit an actual crime." “I had no plan to commit it at all,” he claimed. The prosecution accepted Mr. A’s claim. Considering that the specific date and place of the crime were not specified, it was judged to be insufficient to admit that there was an intention to threaten. The prosecution explained, “In the case of the site where the article was posted, unrefined expressions abound behind anonymity,” adding, “The crime of intimidation is established only when the other party recognizes the meaning by notifying the harm.” He added, “The site in question is for office workers in Korea.” Considering that it is a space, there is insufficient evidence to say that the suspect's post reached the target Egyptian people," he added. Attorney Seo Bong-ha of Daeryun Law Firm, who represented Mr. A, said, "We sincerely explained that if the actor's words and actions are merely emotional swear words or temporary expressions of anger, the intent to threaten cannot be acknowledged. Since the public intimidation crime was implemented last March, we were able to obtain a good result by proving that the perception of illegality was weak."

This seminar will be held jointly with the Korea Artificial Intelligence Association, and will be held in conjunction with the Korea Artificial Intelligence Association to inspect the regulatory environment changes and legal liability structures that companies will face ahead of the implementation of the AI Basic Act and share practical response strategies. It has been prepared. The AI Basic Act, which will take effect on the 22nd, aims to establish a legal basis for the development and use of artificial intelligence technology, and in particular, the key point is to impose an obligation to secure safety and reliability for ‘high-impact AI’ systems that can have a significant impact on human life or basic rights. The seminar consists of a total of three sessions. Lee Seon Choi, CEO of Daeryun Law Firm, who presented the first session, is an AI compliance expert and has practical experience in directly planning, producing, and applying the ‘Daeryun AI’ legal review system, a vertical AI specialized in the legal tech area. Based on this, he plans to point out the regulations and legal responsibility structures that companies must consider in the process of introducing AI, and further look at ways to maximize corporate profits by practically utilizing AI in management. The second session presentation will be delivered by attorney Nam Kwon-yul. Attorney Nam plans to explain the obligations and implementation plans for securing transparency, safety, and accountability related to high-impact AI, based on his experience participating in multi-disciplinary regulatory improvement work, such as reviewing the bill on the promotion and use of the legal technology industry while working at the Office for Government Policy Coordination. Lastly, Attorney Ji Min-hee, who has served as a legal advisor to startups and a member of the Blockchain Law Society, will share the application and management plan of basic AI laws that can be used within each company, focusing on practical issues that arise in the process of introducing AI technology. It is a plan. Cho Young-gon, head of Daeryun AI and Data Intelligence Group, said, “Ahead of the implementation of the Basic AI Act, companies are facing uncertainty about the scope and responsibility of high-impact AI.” He added, “This seminar focused on presenting response strategies that can be applied to actual corporate practice beyond explaining the provisions of the law.” This seminar will be held simultaneously online and offline, and participation can be applied for on the Daeryun website. jckim99@sportsseoul.comReporter Kim Jong-cheol[View full article] Sports Seoul - Korea Artificial Intelligence Association and Daeryun Law Firm hold a seminar on strategies to respond to the ‘Basic AI Act’ (Go here) Gyeonggi Ilbo - Daeryun Law Firm holds ‘AI Basic Law Corporate Response Strategy Seminar’ (Go here) 2026-05-12T11:03:27.146Z https://www.daeryunlaw.com/en/broadcast/6040 The proportion of digital sex crimes is increasing. According to statistics from the Ministry of Gender Equality and Family and the Korea Institute of Criminology and Legal Policy on the 13th, the proportion of digital sex crimes among all sex crimes has nearly tripled in four years, from 8.3% in 2019 to 24% in 2023. Since the N Room incident, digital sex crimes have been evolving more secretly and sophisticatedly. Recently, the existence of ‘AVMOV’, an illegal video distribution site, has been reported in the media and is causing social repercussions. AVMOV has been distributing large quantities of illegally filmed videos of family members, lovers, and other acquaintances, and it has been revealed that the number of subscribers is more than 500,000. Since the reports surrounding AVMOV, questions surrounding related punishments have been popping up one after another on the Internet. Most people react with anxiety, wondering if they could be subject to punishment just by accessing the site. In relation to this, attorney Kim In-won of Daeryun Law Firm said, “Recently, investigative agencies are tracking not only operators but also simple users through overseas cooperation and digital forensics.” He added, “Especially in cases where child and adolescent sexual exploitation material is mixed, such as in the AVMOV case, it is highly likely that the excuses of ‘I saw it without knowing’ or ‘I did not download it’ will not work, so legal response is required from the beginning of the investigation. “It is essential,” he advised. The following is a Q&A with Attorney Kim - Will I be punished for simply watching streaming on AVMOV without payment or downloading? ▲ In principle, I am subject to punishment. In accordance with Article 14, Paragraph 4 of the Sexual Violence Punishment Act, a person who possesses, purchases, stores, or watches illegally filmed material may be subject to imprisonment for up to 3 years or a fine of up to 30 million won. If the target of the illegal filming is a child or adolescent under the age of 19, he or she may be sentenced to imprisonment for a term of more than 1 year in accordance with Article 11, Paragraph 5 of the Act on the Sexual Protection of Children and Adolescents. In the past, possession of files was important, but with the revision of the law, the act of watching streaming itself is now defined as a crime. In particular, if it was possible to guess that it was an illegal video through the thumbnail or title, it would be difficult to avoid punishment as ‘intentional failure to write’ was recognized. - I accessed the site quite a lot, can I reduce my sentence if I turn myself in? ▲Embroidery is a ‘double-edged sword.’ Voluntary reporting before becoming aware of the investigative agency can be a favorable sentencing factor that can lead to leniency as a sign of reflection. If you are a person involved in the operation or have uploaded something, this can be a strategy to avoid arrest. It is safe to turn yourself in after consulting with a lawyer. -What is the primary criterion for being subject to an AVMOV investigation? ▲ Investigative agencies are given priority because they must investigate a large number of connected users with limited manpower. Site operators, distributors, payers, and bulk downloaders are the top targets. In particular, paid payment details serve as evidence proving ‘provision of criminal proceeds’ and ‘clear intent.’ However, even if you are a free member, there is a possibility that you will be subject to investigation if you have a high number of connections or if logs of repeated viewing of a specific subtitle are confirmed. -Formatting your mobile phone or hard disk when a police investigation begins is absolutely prohibited. Physically destroying a hard disk or hastily deleting data is regarded by investigative agencies as an attempt to ‘destroy evidence’ and becomes a decisive reason for issuing an arrest warrant. Recent forensic technology can even restore log records of deleted data. Rather, it is wise to immediately stop accessing and prepare objective sentencing materials through a lawyer to prove the circumstances of one's access and lack of intention. - How should one respond if one has been wrongfully implicated in the AVMOV case? ▲Digital sex crimes are a battle to prove ‘intention.’ If a pop-up window appears due to accidentally clicking on a banner while surfing the web, or if viewing history is left behind due to auto-play, this must be explained technically. However, in this case of AVMOV, the ‘login’ process is essential to watch the video, so it is highly likely that the investigative agency will judge this to be an intentional act. Therefore, rather than blindly denying the charges, an active legal defense is needed, such as receiving assistance from forensic experts and lawyers and submitting log analysis data to prove that the access in question was temporary or unintentional.

The Daegu District Prosecutors' Office decided not to indict Mr. A, a man in his 20s who was sent on charges of defamation and obstruction of business in November last year. When the investigation began in 2023 regarding his victimization of school violence when he was a high school student, Mr. A was accused of interfering with the investigation process by defaming the teacher in charge, Mr. B. At the time, it was known that Mr. A sent a text message to his friends saying that Mr. B was manipulating evidence and lying. Mr. A denied the charges. Mr. A claimed that even though he reported the damage directly to the school, Mr. B reprimanded him by telling him that he should change his usual attitude. At the same time, he emphasized that he sent the text message because he heard from his friends that Mr. B was investigating his shortcomings, and felt that Mr. B's treatment was unfair. The prosecution decided not to indict Mr. A. The prosecution said, “When looking at the context of the school violence reporting process, the suspect’s actions expressed an opinion to the effect that the accuser’s actions were ‘gathering false information,’” and added, “Even if it is a somewhat exaggerated expression, it cannot be considered a statement of fact.” Attorney Jihye Kwon of Daeryun Law Firm, who represented Mr. “The decision must be made in consideration of the content,” he explained. “In a situation where it appears that proper punishment for school violence will not be implemented, Mr. A’s remarks were merely a response to Mr. B’s unfair actions, and could not be seen as being made with the intention of damaging reputation.”[View full article] Man who gossiped about teacher investigated for school violence decided not to indict on charges including defamation (Shortcut) 2026-05-03T20:22:19.717Z https://www.daeryunlaw.com/en/broadcast/6033 He was accused of issuing a false medical certificate even though there was no 'alveolar bone grafting'. Law: "We must take into account the nature of the treatment within the hospital... We cannot rule out that it is an auxiliary material." A dentist who was put on trial for aiding and abetting insurance money fraud by issuing false medical certificates during the implant surgery process was acquitted in the first trial. The Ulsan District Court in November last year found dentist A, who was indicted on charges of violating the Special Act on Prevention of Insurance Fraud and writing a false medical certificate, not guilty. Mr. A is accused of aiding and abetting seven patients to swindle 13.8 million won worth of insurance money from insurance companies by issuing false medical certificates as if he had also performed 'alveolar bone grafting' even though he only performed implant surgery on the patients. The prosecution determined that no actual transplant surgery took place, citing the fact that the bone graft product sticker attached to the confiscated medical records had already been used on other patients or had expired. Mr. A completely denied the charges. It is argued that the error in the medical record was only an administrative error, and that the actual surgery was performed normally. Mr. A countered, saying, “The implant used in the hospital is a ‘wedge-shaped’ product, not a typical screw type,” and “This method necessarily involves a bone grafting process to fill the gap by collecting the autologous alveolar bone generated during the implant placement process.” The court ruled in Mr. A’s favor. The court explained, "The fact that there are duplicate or expired implant stickers attached to the medical record raises suspicion, but we cannot rule out the possibility that this is an auxiliary material." He continued, "The 'wedge-shaped implant' performed at the hospital requires two surgeries to cover the gums," and added, "Because the gap around the implant must be filled with autogenous bone naturally collected during drilling during this process, there is a possibility that an actual bone graft surgery was performed. “It is sufficient,” said Shin Min-soo, a lawyer at Daeryun Law Firm who represented Mr. A. “Unlike general implant surgery, it was effective to explain in detail to the court the medical mechanism of the special method used by our client.”[View full article] After receiving the implant, insurance pays for ‘jaw bone transplant’… Dentist accused of fraud 'not guilty' (Shortcut) 2026-05-14T01:33:36.474Z https://www.daeryunlaw.com/en/broadcast/6031 Exporting companies must know how to use export vouchers and the criteria for selecting successful partners. The global trade environment surrounding domestic exporting companies is changing faster than ever. The strengthening of tariffs and export controls in the United States, the expansion of environmental and ESG regulations in the EU, and the advancement of certification and non-tariff barriers by country are now a reality that applies not only to large corporations but also to small and medium-sized export companies without exception. In this environment, the 'Export Voucher Project' supported by the government goes beyond cost support and has established itself as a key strategic tool that manages the risks of export companies and accelerates entry into the global market. When the Export Voucher Project needs to focus on 'proactive risk management' beyond marketing The Export Voucher Project is a system designed to allow small and medium-sized export companies to freely select and utilize the services of private professional organizations registered as executing agencies by receiving vouchers from the government. In the past, it tended to be used for simple marketing, translation, and exhibition participation support, but recently, as global regulations have strengthened, the importance of 'proactive risk management services' has been greatly highlighted. Through the voucher, companies can receive initial entry advice, such as establishing an overseas corporation, as well as dispute prevention through export contract review and response services to the complex regulations and certification of the export partner country. Furthermore, it is possible to receive professional assistance for global risk management, ranging from precise diagnosis of tariff and non-tariff barriers to response to US tariff measures and export controls, which are hot topics in the recent trade environment. A problem often seen in practice is that legal, tariff, and regulatory risks are revealed only after a contract is signed, resulting in a situation where the cost of post-action response far exceeds the amount of voucher support. This is why export vouchers should be used at the early design stage rather than as a short-term cost-cutting tool.Fragmented advice is risky, and an 'integrated solution' is neededExport is not a single area problem. Within one transaction, complex issues such as contract law, customs law, foreign exchange transaction law, taxation, intellectual property rights, and local regulations are intertwined. This is evidenced by cases where a single overseas agency contract turns into a dispute over exclusive rights, errors in FTA origin judgment lead to additional tariffs, and brand use is blocked due to unregistered trademarks. Therefore, rather than seeking separate advice for each field, companies should find an implementation agency that will comprehensively review all of these factors. We must carefully consider whether a one-stop service covering legal affairs, tax affairs, customs duties, and intellectual property rights is possible, and whether professional personnel such as lawyers, customs experts, and tax accountants can collaborate within one system to design a structure to prevent disputes from arising from the beginning. This is the way to prevent dispersion of responsibility and disconnection of strategy. You must work with a partner who is responsible for implementation. In order to maximize the efficiency of using export vouchers, it is advantageous to select a partner who goes beyond the realm of advice and supports practical implementation. In other words, there is a need for a system that goes beyond consulting and supports trade document agency related to contracts, customs clearance, and payment, as well as overseas certification and local registration procedures. In particular, it is more important for small and medium-sized companies with limited internal manpower to select an implementation agency with such a complete structure. This is because, given the reality of companies lacking a separate dedicated department, handling everything from advice to document processing and local registration all at once will reduce the work burden and, conversely, enjoy the tangible effect of improving work speed. Furthermore, it will also be an important criterion to check whether the company has extensive experience in responding to actual disputes or sanctions rather than theoretical explanations, and whether the latest global trade issues can be immediately reflected in practice. Export vouchers, companies that use them properly will survive. Exporting has now become a strategy that determines the survival of companies. The export voucher project is the most powerful weapon given to the country to implement its strategy. What is important is ‘with whom and how’ you use this weapon. Instead of viewing vouchers as homework to be exhausted, companies should use them as an opportunity to find a reliable partner to accompany them on their global journey. If we select a company with the expertise to take full responsibility for our company's overseas expansion and actively utilize it, the trade environment of crisis will actually become an opportunity.[View full article] [Contribution] Export vouchers, a ‘strategy’ rather than a ‘subsidy’ (Shortcut) 2026-05-10T05:50:40.243Z https://www.daeryunlaw.com/en/broadcast/6024 [Interview] Son Dong-hu, SJKP American lawyer, "American court evidence can be used in Korea as well" Victims of Coupang's recent personal information leak incident have filed a lawsuit against the U.S. headquarters (Coupang Inc.), drawing industry attention. The legal community considers the 'discovery' (evidence discovery) system, which does not exist in Korea, as the key to victory or defeat, and believes that Coupang's internal reporting system and concealment circumstances, which were shrouded in mystery, may be revealed. There are also predictions that the evidence secured during this process could determine the direction of lawsuits and investigations in progress in Korea. In an interview with Money S on the 6th, U.S. attorney Son Dong-hoo of SJKP, who is leading the Coupang U.S. lawsuit, suggested that proceeding with the Coupang lawsuit in U.S. courts rather than in Korea could increase the success rate. The background to Attorney Son's suggestion is the compulsory nature of 'securing evidence.' Attorney Son pointed out, "Korean litigation is like a 'tilted playing field,'" and "Victims have to prove the company's wrongdoing, but in many cases, the company does not hold onto and release important server records or internal reports." On the other hand, the situation in the United States is different. This is because there is a discovery system that obligates both sides to disclose evidence before the trial begins. Attorney Son explained, "In the United States, a company can be forced to release all data related to a case, including internal emails, messenger conversations, and server access records. This is the system that Korean companies are most afraid of." He explained that Korea also has a system called 'document submission order', but it is not comparable to the United States in terms of effectiveness. In Korea, the plaintiff must specifically prove that “document A is over there” and ask for it to be pointed out. However, the reality is that from the perspective of a victim who does not know the company's internal circumstances, it is difficult to even know what to ask for. Attorney Son added, "US Discovery can request the entire 'information that may be related to this case'," and added, "It is a structure that makes it virtually impossible for a company to hide information just because it is a trade secret or is disadvantageous." “Even if the server is in Korea… if there is ‘control’ at the head office, it is subject to enforcement” Some raise the question of whether it would be difficult for a US court to enforce the data because it is located in a Korean corporation (Coupang). In response to this, Attorney Son explained, “The standard for U.S. courts is not physical location, but ‘who controls it?’” and “If the U.S. headquarters has the power (control) to order a Korean corporation to submit data, the U.S. court can issue a disclosure order even if the server is on the other side of the world.” What happens if a company deletes or does not submit unfavorable data? Attorney Son emphasized, “In an American court, destroying evidence is tantamount to suicide.” He said, “If you hide the data, the court will consider it as a de facto admission of the fact, saying, ‘How much of a sting would it take to hide it?’” and “It is even so strict that it will rule on the case immediately after the trial is over.” Attorney Son predicted that the ramifications of this lawsuit will not stop at the United States. He added, "Internal data legally obtained in U.S. lawsuits can be used as decisive evidence in trials or investigations in progress in Korea," and added, "There have been many cases in the past where internal documents revealed through U.S. discovery turned the tables on Korean lawsuits." Finally, Attorney Son said to victims who hesitate to participate in lawsuits, "The class action lawsuit and discovery system in the U.S. is a system that exists to reveal the internal truth of companies that individuals cannot access," adding, "We can file lawsuits against large corporations." “It is not easy to raise the issue, but this is a process that goes beyond simple compensation and establishes the correct standards for corporate responsibility,” he emphasized.

Even though Mr. Jang died while working at Coupang, it was reported to the U.S. financial authorities that no employee died in an accident. Reporter Do-yoon Lee reported exclusively. [Report] Deok-jun Jang, who finished working overtime at the logistics center, died in October 2020 and February 2021. The Korea Workers' Compensation and Welfare Service determines it to be an industrial accident. In March of the same year, Coupang was listed on the New York Stock Exchange. Mr. Jang's death occurred five months before listing, and recognition as an industrial accident occurred a month before. I checked the 2021 annual report submitted by Coupang to the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission. Coupang's safety system is described as the best in the world, and it states that there has been no accidental death so far. The same happened in 2022, when at least one person died at the logistics center. This is a report. What stands out is Coupang's own classification method. After distinguishing between 'work-related' and 'accident-related' deaths, it only stated that there were '0' accidental deaths and did not mention work-related deaths. Although disclosure of the number of deaths is not required under the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission's disclosure regulations, Coupang used 'expression' in the report that could easily be perceived as having no employee deaths. [Son Dong-hoo/US Attorney/Representative of Coupang Class Action Litigation: "The measurement standard was set too narrowly and important context was omitted. There is a high possibility that it will be evaluated as a disclosure that could mislead investors by omission..."] If this annual report, called 10-K, is found to be a false or deceptive disclosure, it will be subject to not only civil but also criminal and administrative liability. There have been more than 9,900 industrial accidents reported by Coupang to the Korean government over the past five years. However, the U.S. disclosure only said that there were no self-classified accidental deaths. Coupang said, "Until then, there were no industrial accidents at Coupang and its subsidiary businesses. “There are no deaths,” he explained.

Fair trade law evaluation is possible when considering market dominant position. Large platforms should be required to take responsibility commensurate with their influence. The recent personal information leak incident that occurred at Coupang goes beyond a simple failure to protect information and raises important issues worth reexamining from a fair trade law perspective.. So far, personal information leak cases have been mainly discussed in the area of ​​the Personal Information Protection Act or the Information and Communications Network Act. However, if the platform company that is the party to the leak has a market dominant position or an equivalent competitive advantage, the legal evaluation is based on the Fair Trade Act.(or competition law)It has no choice but to expand into the area of. information leak, Distortion of the entire platform business order The essence of platform business lies in trust..

The problem is that if personal information is leaked in this structure, the damage is not limited to infringement on the rights of individual consumers, but also has the potential to distort the competitive order of the market as a whole..In particular, large platforms such as Coupang have a structure in which trading partners have limited options.. In this situation, accidents caused by neglect of personal information management act as a barrier to entry for competing businesses and at the same time affect consumers. 'Crying and eating mustard' This can lead to forcing a deal..Fair trade law has traditionally been, terms and conditions, We have regulated acts that restrict external competition, such as exclusive transactions.. However, the recent trend of competition law is based on data and algorithms., There is a trend to recognize non-price factors, such as loss of platform trust, as important competitive variables.. The level of personal information protection is also an extension of that.. Evading responsibility after the fact also distorts consumer choice. Looking at the Coupang incident from a fair trade law perspective,, The key points are summarized in three points..first, Whether there is a market dominant position or equivalent competitive advantage. In general, when determining a market dominant position, not only market share but also dependence on transactions in that market is considered., fungibility, The level of entry barriers are comprehensively considered.. Coupang's share of transactions and frequency of use in the e-commerce platform market, In particular, the repetitive use structure in the area of ​​everyday consumer goods is not unrelated to these judgment factors..The second is the so-called 'lock in(lock-in) effect'all. Membership Structure, fast delivery infrastructure, Points and subscription benefits act as factors that substantially increase consumers’ switching costs.. On the surface, it seems like a device to expand consumer benefits, but, If, as a result of the benefit, a structure is formed that makes it difficult for consumers to move to another platform even if they are dissatisfied with the level of personal information protection or transaction conditions, this may be evaluated as a competition-limiting effect..third, It's a matter of combining and accumulating data.. Large platforms have a purchasing history, search history, Payment information, We continue to strengthen our competitive edge by combining and analyzing multi-layered data such as shipping information.. Neglecting to manage personal information protection under this data combination structure may affect the overall data-based competitive order.. If a market-dominant business enjoys a competitive advantage through data combination but does not fulfill its corresponding protection obligations, it can raise an issue under fair trade law.. Evading responsibility or delaying damage relief during the response process after an accident also acts as a factor that distorts consumers' rational choices.. Germany, Unauthorized use of data 'Abuse of market dominant position' Regulations This issue is not only being discussed in Korea.. European Union(EU)and the German competition authorities already treat data and privacy protection as an important element of competition law..EU In the process of enforcing competition laws on large digital platforms, the Commission has continued to raise concerns about the impact of personal information collection and use on consumer choice and competitive structure.. In particular, it makes clear that personal information processing conditions may be evaluated as unfair transaction conditions if the platform actually functions as an essential transaction counterparty.. It is an approach based on the recognition that personal information protection is a factor that determines the quality of competition beyond regulatory compliance issues..The case of the German Federal Cartel Office is more direct.. German competition authorities took issue with the practice of a dominant platform operator combining and utilizing data collected from various services without the explicit consent of users. 'Abuse of market dominant position'It has been judged that. The key point in the case was not the data combination itself, but whether the consumer could actually refuse it or choose an alternative.. in other words, The judgment was made by linking the protection of personal information and the effect of limiting competition into one issue..These overseas cases show that personal information protection is gradually moving to the core of competition law rather than its outskirts.. Privacy Protection Competence, not obligatory 'competitiveness'Coupang's personal information leak incident clearly shows the intersection of personal information protection and fair trade law.. The Fair Trade Act no longer just governs price fixing or market division.. Fair trade law in the digital platform era is also required to play a role in protecting the trust infrastructure of the market.. From a policy standpoint, there is a need to clearly recognize personal information protection capabilities as a key competitive factor.. In the digital platform market, the level of personal information protection is no longer considered an incidental compliance item, but an essential transaction condition that determines consumer choice and trust.. Nevertheless, imposing only the same level of ex post sanctions or formal obligations on market-dominant platforms would be a measure that does not sufficiently reflect the reality of the data-driven competitive environment..There is a need to demand greater accountability and transparency from large, market-dominant platforms commensurate with their influence.. Disclosure of information regarding personal information processing and security investments, Quick and effective damage relief procedures in the event of an accident, Responsibility for explaining data combination and utilization structures must be institutionally supported.. This is not simply a discussion about increasing the level of punishment., The purpose is to establish the prerequisites for competition so that market participants can make rational choices..This approach is not aimed at sanctions or punishment against specific companies.. Privacy is not a cost across platform markets 'competitiveness'In the long run, it can be said to be the minimum condition for creating a competitive environment in which innovation and trust are compatible..Coupang's personal information leak incident goes beyond a technical incident and raises questions about the social and competition legal responsibilities that platform companies must bear from their dominant position.. If a platform has grown based on consumer trust, the legal evaluation that must be endured when that trust is damaged should not be limited to the framework of the Personal Information Protection Act.. From the perspective of competitive order, There is also a need to calmly look back on this incident from the perspective of the evolution of the Fair Trade Act..

Competition law sharpens [Daeryun’s Biz law forum] (Shortcut) 2026-05-10T07:06:04.657Z https://www.daeryunlaw.com/en/broadcast/6013 "I'm looking for someone to help me stand in line at Hongdae when we move from December 31st to January 1st. "On December 26th last year, this post was posted on the online used goods trading platform Carrot. This job posting, which offered a cost of 30,000 won, attracted 30 applicants. On the night of December 31 last year, ahead of the New Year, long lines were waiting to enter bars, restaurants, and game rooms in the middle of Hongdae despite the cold wave of minus 8 degrees. Among this procession was Mr. Park (43), who has been working professionally as a line queuer for over 5 years. He said, “Recently, there has been a significant increase in requests to wait in line at restaurants such as luxury hotel restaurants and bars. There are people who earn an average of 4 to 5 million won per month, and during the COVID-19 period, their income was up to 8 million won due to the most work, so there are cases where waiting in line is their full-time job.” Not only in Hongdae, but also at Carrot in Changwon, Gyeongsangnam-do, “I am looking for a line waiter in a bar in Sangnam-dong on January 1st (Changwon City) for 50,000 won.” As articles were posted, it was easy to find related articles from all over the place. The content was diverse, such as “I was born in 2007, and I want to enter as soon as 12 o’clock,” and “I don’t want to waste time with the opposite sex, so I’m looking for someone to stand in line for me.” Likewise, ‘line-waiting part-time jobs’, which were previously limited to purchasing limited editions of luxury brands, have recently expanded into restaurants, bars, bakeries, etc. and are becoming popular nationwide. It emerged in the late 2010s, and as demand increased before and after COVID-19, it expanded into a form of professional agency part-time work. Recently, as the number of customers has increased explosively at Daejeon's famous bakery 'Seongsimdang' and several cafes selling 'Dubai Chewy Cookie', a dessert popular among young people, the demand for people to stand in line at these shops is also increasing. The general line queuing allowance is the minimum wage (10,320 won), but higher wages may be charged depending on the date or situation. Mr. A, the owner of an agency that specializes in providing waiting services, said, “Outdoor waiting is more expensive per hour, and during peak seasons such as the end of the year and the beginning of the year, the premium is about 50%.” Experts analyzed that the development of platforms and changes in the perception of modern consumers are behind the rapid increase in the number of people who do not hesitate to pay for the goods plus the act of waiting in line. Choi Cheol, a professor of consumer economics at Sookmyung Women's University, explained, “In the past, it was common to go out of your way and endure inconvenience to consume, but these days, consumers recognize time and effort as specific transaction costs and are willing to pay additional costs.” Lee Eun-hee, a professor of consumer studies at Inha University, said, “With the development of the Internet and platforms, matching between suppliers and consumers for even minor services is easy,” and predicted, “Services such as bar queuing, which are segmented demands, will continue to appear in the future.” There is also controversy over such queuing service. Kwak Jun-ho, a lawyer at the Cheong Law Firm, said, “The act of waiting in line itself is not problematic under the current law, but there is room for moral criticism about settling with money for limited goods.” Jeong-min Cheon, an attorney at Daeryun Law Firm, pointed out, “The reality is that there are no regulations on the behavior of organized agency businesses,” and “There are some stores that explicitly ban queue-queuing agencies, and if they do not comply with a store’s request to vacate, there may be a potential for legal disputes.” Reporters Han Chan-woo and Lee A-mi han.chanwoo@joongang.co.kr[View full article] Now waiting in line is my job...

This is because the court at the time clearly ruled which legal claims would survive and which would be dismissed, and presented a 'basic textbook' for future similar lawsuits to refer to. In the ongoing Coupang, Inc. class action lawsuit, it is expected that a more detailed and sophisticated legal battle will unfold based on this precedent. The most critical difference between the Sony and Coupang cases lies in the framing that defines the cases. The Sony incident arose from a situation in which the PlayStation Network (PSN) was hacked in 2011, causing the information of about 77 million users to be leaked and service to be interrupted. At the time, the lawsuit was all focused on ‘data leak’. The main concern was whether there was an external intrusion itself and whether Sony implemented technically reasonable security measures. On the other hand, the Coupang incident essentially has 'governance failure' as its core issue. Beyond the technical negligence of failing to prevent external attacks, it deals with the overall failure of the global operating system and security management structure centered on US corporations. The level of litigation has expanded to the area of ​​management responsibility, which examines who was responsible for making security decisions and whether there was structural neglect. In the U.S. federal court, the first hurdle in a personal information leak case is whether standing as a plaintiff is recognized under the Constitution. In the previous Sony case, the court focused on the objective fact that personal information was violated and opened the door to plaintiff eligibility widely, but applied very strict standards at the stage of determining liability for compensation. It was believed that the abstract risk of instability due to information leakage alone did not meet the requirements for compensation. At the time, the court dismissed a number of claims that lacked provable "realistic damages," such as actual misuse of personal information or attempted fraud, as well as specific cost expenditures and time losses. In other words, the key issue given by Sony's precedent is that the outcome of a personal information case depends not on whether a leak incident occurred, but on how to structure and prove the specific damage caused by it. Therefore, the success or failure of this Coupang lawsuit can also be seen as depending on how realistic damages, such as identity theft management costs or damages caused by leaks such as actual monetary losses, are logically specified. The legal approach also needs to change. At the time of the Sony decision, the court dismissed a large number of pure negligence (Negligence) claims on the grounds that “in principle, economic damages are the domain of contract law.” On the other hand, many claims based on the California Consumer Protection Act (UCL, FAL, CLRA) were acknowledged. This is because the Consumer Protection Act focuses on the presence of deceptive practices by companies. The court judged based on what statements the company made about its security level, whether those statements conflicted with the security status or risk perception recognized within the company at the time, and whether consumers were reasonably misled as a result. This trend is expected to remain effective in the Coupang lawsuit as well. The key issue will be whether the company deceived consumers by failing to keep its promises of 'industry standard encryption' or 'reasonable security', rather than liability for negligence, which has a low probability of winning. In other words, linking consumer deception and failure of security governance can be seen as the core link of this lawsuit. What should be noted above all is the qualitative expansion of Discovery. If the discovery of the past Sony incident was limited to confirming the adequacy of technical security measures, the scope of the Coupang incident should be expanded to include the board of directors and management. This is because we need to go beyond simply ‘whether a security system was in place’ and investigate ‘who left the vulnerable system unattended and under what organizational structure?’ A close understanding of the executive reporting line, security budget allocation, and decision-making structure at the U.S. headquarters will be the key to this lawsuit. In the end, the Coupang lawsuit is expected to not only follow the textbook precedent of the Sony case, but will use this as a stepping stone to develop into an advanced legal struggle to hold the global company's headquarters responsible. This lawsuit, which seeks responsibility for governance beyond technical negligence, will become a new judicial standard that redefines the scope of data security responsibility of global companies in the future. ● Contributions by external writers may differ from the editorial direction of this magazine.

The direction of Coupang's response, which is increasing confusion with half-baked follow-up measures, is ultimately pointing to 'Protecting Chairman Kim Beom-seok’s brother'and 'stock price defense' 'Minimize litigation risk'all. However, the devices prepared by Coupang and Chairman Kim's brothers to avoid various regulations and judicial risks are actually increasing the level of sanctions and the possibility of large-scale lawsuits at home and abroad.. 'Kim Beom-seok appointed as CEO' The biggest variable is the large-scale personal information leak of Coupang's younger brother Kim Yu-seok. What is clearly revealed is that Chairman Kim's younger brother, Vice President Kim Yu-seok, is the executive in charge of the delivery camp management division at the Korean corporation.. 2021New York Stock Exchange, USA(NYSE)Coupang listed onIncis past 5New York Stock Exchange per year(NYSE)In the disclosure report submitted to Chairman Kim's 'Specially related person'It has been revealed that Vice President Kim belongs to Coupang..

Vice President Kim 2024year only 30Received cash and stocks worth over 100 million won, Report released after listing(202124Yearly salary)The cumulative payment amount of the award is 140It's over 100 million won.In industry and politics, Vice President Kim is an unregistered executive, but, 2014It is believed that he has played a significant role in the company's major management activities and decisions, including being involved in the company's major management activities and decisions together with his older brother, Chairman Kim, who has been with Coupang since 2012.. One industry insider said "The mere fact that Kim Yoo-seok did not want to reveal that he was the vice president shows that he already has considerable influence and decision-making power within the company."He said "It appears that an attempt was made to separate external and internal positions from a risk management perspective, as Kim Beom-seok's designation as head could lead to completely different results depending on Kim Yu-seok's role and status."said.The existence of Vice President Kim is the same person as Chairman Kim.(count: A person or corporation that actually controls a large conglomerate) It is considered a key variable in determining whether to designate. The Fair Trade Commission 2021Although Coupang was designated as a large conglomerate in 2018, it designated Coupang Corporation as the same person, saying there was insufficient evidence to designate Chairman Kim, who is a U.S. national, as the same person.. At the time, this decision was controversial., Afterwards, the Fair Trade Commission made it possible for foreigners to designate the same person and specified the requirements and exception provisions for designating the same person for corporations.. Even after this, Chairman Kim, a foreigner, has no shares in domestic affiliates and his relatives do not participate in management., Designation of the same person was avoided by acknowledging exceptions such as no financial transactions with the company.. Authorities are investigating Vice President Kim 'Although he belongs to Coupang, there is no basis to judge that he participates in management.'I saw it.however 2025year 12He is serving as vice president during the large-scale personal information leak incident and hearing in March., This year, it was confirmed that he received a significant amount of compensation and stock incentives. 5There is analysis that it will also affect the screening of the same person scheduled for this month..Joo Byeong-ki, Chairman of the Fair Trade Commission "Is Kim Beom-seok's younger brother Kim Yu-seok participating in management?, There is a need to investigate how much bonus and compensation is being received."and avoiding institutional loopholes.

"If false disclosure was made U.S. Expansion of litigation is inevitable"The emergence of interim CEO Harold Rogers, who became the head of the Korean corporation due to the personal information leak incident. 'Mocking the Korean government and people'Coupang's strange response, which was criticized as being negative, is becoming a bad news that further increases the risk.. While a joint public-private investigation is in progress, Coupang suddenly announces details that are close to self-exoneration., In the name of the National Intelligence Service 'Following instructions from authorities'He countered by saying,. Representative Rogers publicly announced this self-investigation. "This is a successful example of cooperation, but the Korean government is not properly informing the public."He also attempted to change the frame.. At the same time, Coupang was a victim of an information leak. 3370About 10,000 people '1per person 510,000 won purchase voucher provided' A compensation plan was also presented., When I opened the lid, it was actually '5000one-won coupon'It was just. Marketing of Coupang subsidiaries to victims 'Smishing behavior that crosses the line'A curse was poured out saying,.Even though we were able to predict the reactions of our government and domestic consumers, 1The analysis that US stock market investors are behind the repeated claims that do not match the car compensation plan is gaining weight.. In fact, ahead of Coupang's joint hearing, the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission(SEC)In the materials submitted to △Identify the culprit of the leak △The culprit 3300Although 10,000 accounts were accessed, the actual data stored was approximately 3000Just a dog △my3It contains content that the Korean government has not confirmed, including confirmation that it was deleted without sharing., To consumers 1article6850It was also stated that coupons worth hundreds of millions of won would be paid.. Chairman Kim Beom-seok's situation 40In the English apology issued after one day, "false insecurity(false anxiety), falsely accused(false criticism)" Different from the Korean language, etc. 'False/false' It is pointed out that the use of the term was intended to reduce the risk of lawsuits from investors.. Even though Coupang took proactive measures and cooperated as much as possible with the Korean government, it made every effort to convey the message that the authorities were excessively pressuring and harassing American companies..Listed on the New York Stock Exchange 2021since 2025year 3until the quarter 150Coupang, which has spent more than 100 million won in lobbying funds and has shown aggressive actions against US politics and relations, faced its biggest crisis since listing due to its half-baked response to this incident.. The number of local law firms pursuing class action lawsuits against Coupang is increasing.. Levy & Kolcinkey law firm located in New York City, USA. "A class action lawsuit is being filed for shareholders who suffered damage from Coupang's information leak."It was announced. To date, the number of law firms that have announced the recruitment of plaintiffs for class action lawsuits related to Coupang is at least 5identified as a place. Rewards for insiders who report meaningful non-public information(of the amount collected 1030%)to pay SEC Introducing the regulations 'whistle blowing'A law firm encouraging. Personal information leakage incident and unfaithful disclosure to Vice President Kim Yu-seok, If the number of shareholders claiming damages from a fall in stock prices due to false disclosures to minimize the situation increases, the size of the lawsuit and the amount of compensation could grow to an astronomical scale..Chairman Kim and CoupangIncA class action lawsuit against is already underway.. The lead plaintiffs are shareholders of the New York City Public Pension, which consists of the New York City Public Employees' Pension and the Police and Teachers' Pension.. Shareholders support Coupang's initial public offering(IPO) In the process, the risk of overwork and death due to poor working conditions was concealed, and information about search results manipulation and supplier price enforcement was concealed., They claim that the stock price plummeted after being investigated by Korean authorities after listing. 'Grossly false and deceptive acts'It was stipulated that. 1planted 'No remand'It was judged and dismissed as, The plaintiff appealed and faced additional legal judgment.. While the lawsuit is currently in progress, a personal information leak occurred and suspicions arose against Vice President Kim Yoo-seok, leading to a drop in stock prices on the U.S. stock market and a class action lawsuit that Coupang was trying to defend..Son Dong-hoo, who is leading a class action lawsuit for victims of personal information leaks from Coupang in the United States. SJKP(Daeryun Law Firm USA Corporation) New York lawyer "There is a gap between the main content announced by Coupang through public disclosure and the reality., If this is intentionally omitted or hidden (1laterally) discovery(discovery) It will be verified through internal documents and decision-making structures at this stage."He said "Issues related to Kim Yu-seok 'Did you have the title of executive?'not, This is whether governance and decision-making risks that are important to investors have been sufficiently disclosed.. Even though Kim Yoo-seok, a related party, had a meaningful influence on the company's decision-making or control structure, if he reduced or omitted the disclosure, he could become the subject of a dispute and additional litigation would be inevitable."explained. Coupang's stock price, which had plummeted due to the information leak, rebounded by more than 6% after an announcement was made attempting to minimize the situation, recovering to $24 per share. However, as the Korean government announced stronger investigation and follow-up measures against Coupang, it fell 1.36% and 2.24% for consecutive days on December 30 and 31 last year, remaining at $23.59. ■ Possibility of cooperation with the U.S. National Tax Service in the midst of the special prosecution's speed war on 'external pressure on Coupang investigation' The permanent special prosecutor and the National Tax Service are also targeting Coupang. Coupang, which recruited people from the prosecution, the courts, the Ministry of Employment and Labor, the Fair Trade Commission, the National Tax Service, the police, and the National Assembly, is in a state of 'vegetable government' as the government issued a 'ban on contact with Coupang', warning of 'disgrace to the company'. If Coupang's systematic illegal response or collusive relationship is revealed in the permanent special investigation team's investigation, the fallout is expected to be significant. On December 31 last year, the Permanent Special Prosecutor Ahn Kwon-seop's team summoned and investigated Kim Jun-ho, a public interest informant on the 'Coupang Blacklist', as a witness. Mr. Kim worked as a member of the human resources team at Coupang Fulfillment Service (Coupang CFS) Protection Logistics Center for five months starting in November 2022, and was in charge of excluding job applicants using blacklist documents. The special prosecutor's team is investigating the main body of Coupang's case of non-payment of severance pay, as well as suspicions of unfair external pressure that arose during the investigation and reporting of this case. The suspicion of external pressure in the investigation, triggered by the revelations of Chief Prosecutor Moon Ji-seok, who was in charge of the case, inevitably expands the investigation to include collusion not only within the prosecution but also between officials of the Ministry of Employment and Labor and Coupang. Coupang CFS changed its employment rules in a way that was unfavorable to workers in May 2023, and the Seoul Eastern Branch of the Ministry of Employment and Labor at the time approved this. The special prosecutor's team is checking the overall process of the prosecution's investigation of Coupang and the acquittal after approval from the Ministry of Employment and Labor. The legal community believes that securing physical evidence to support the suspicion of external pressure will be the key. The National Tax Service, which detected Coupang's suspicion of offshore tax evasion and launched a high-intensity special tax investigation, hinted at the possibility of cooperation with the U.S. Internal Revenue Service (IRS). The political world believes that the US Congress's 'life-saving efforts' or the authorities' passive response will not be effective, given that this incident may have caused damage to domestic investors, such as exposing Coupang to a large-scale class action lawsuit. Lee Hae-min, a member of the Korea Reform Party, said, "Since Coupang did not provide the data (requested by the Korean government and the National Assembly), we came to the conclusion that it would take a bombshell from the US IRS to make a move." He added, "I wonder if Coupang will lobby beyond the Office of the US Trade Representative (USTR) to the IRS. The cost of lobbying will also be considerable." We plan to file charges such as failure to appear under the National Assembly Testimony Act. CEO Rogers, former CEO Park Dae-jun, Vice President Cho Yong-woo, and Auditor Yoon Hye-young were included in the list of indictments on charges of perjury and other charges under the National Assembly Testimony Act.

The U.S. local class action attorney responded to this change in disclosure. ‘securities fraud’ raised the possibility of charges being filed.

This is the past 16Day(local time) In public notice “‘Coupang’We are fully cooperating with these regulatory authorities.(Korean regulators have initiated investigations with which Coupang is fully cooperating)”This is quite a different expression compared to the expression.Lee Woong-hyuk, professor of police department at Konkuk University, commented on this: “The focus shifted from Coupang's organizational issues to individual issues.”He said “The reality of the incident is not a structural defect due to the company's negligence in security management. ‘my3one's personal deviation’It is interpreted as an intention to gain an advantage in future lawsuits by converting to .”said. This change in wording was made after the police expressed strong regret over Coupang's own investigation.. It's been half a day since the police officially pointed out Coupang's non-cooperation. 29Day(local time) Coupang through a correction announcement ‘We are working with investigators to solve the case.’presented a conflicting message..Earlier, Seoul Metropolitan Police Agency Commissioner Park Jeong-bo said, 29At the regular press conference on Sunday morning, “Coupang arbitrarily submitted the suspect's laptop and never announced that its own forensics were in progress.”as “If Coupang submitted fabricated data, it should be held strictly responsible.”warned that.Professor Lee said about this “Coupang, the target of the investigation, has moved to a position where it stands side by side with the police and receives cooperation.”He said “It is highly likely that this could be interpreted as a strategy to shift the blame to the culprit in order to avoid criticism from domestic public authorities.”pointed out.“Correction notice, Sensitive and powerful attack point”Some in the legal community believe that Coupang's correction disclosure deceived investors and victims. ‘securities fraud’ It was pointed out that there was a high possibility of charges being applied..

Son Dong-hoo, who is leading the consumer class action lawsuit regarding the Coupang personal information leak case in the United States. SJKP(Daeryun Law Firm USA Corporation) A New York lawyer said this change in disclosure “Very sensitive and powerful attack point”pointed out.Lawyer Son “The reason for changing the subject of cooperation to the culprit is to rule out the possibility of the company's lack of cooperation and to maintain the impression to investors that the investigation is smooth.”He said “This is under U.S. securities law. ‘distortion of important facts’ or ‘misleading omission’A point that can be sufficiently argued with”said.‘distortion of important facts’ and ‘misleading omission’The Securities Exchange Act10article(b) and SEC rule 10b-5This is a typical fraudulent activity prohibited by.

One lawyer said "If you look at the details, the video or audio using deepfake is definitely a bit awkward."Although "People who are old or insensitive to technology may become victims of phishing crimes, even if they are a little awkward."said.In addition, one lawyer said that during the recent stock market boom, smishing(A crime that uses fake text messages to trick people into downloading malicious apps, sharing sensitive information, or losing money.)We note that fraud in investment reading rooms is increasing..One lawyer said "Just out of the blue via telegram or text message ‘High-profit guaranteed investment leadership room’are invited to"as "If you belong to a room 30If there are at least one person, everyone but me can be seen as a cheater."said.And then "Actual investment leaders create fake sites, but ordinary people mistakenly believe that the numbers that appear on the fake site are what they own."as "The leading forces give relatively small profits to the victims, but then the victims put in more money, and the forces deceive the victims until their investment money disappears completely, and only then do the victims realize the damage they have suffered."explained.A lawyer speaks to victims of phishing crimes "First, it is necessary to report it to the police and apply to the Financial Supervisory Service or a financial company to suspend account payments."as "After that, it is important to provide investigative agencies with a clue to track down superiors through consultation with a professional lawyer."advised. The following is a Q&A with a lawyer..-I heard that criminal methods are becoming more sophisticated every day.."In the past, crime methods, in the case of voice phishing, were simple enough to be used as a joke material with a vague tone of voice, but recent crime methods have become so sophisticated that even I was scared.. Now, deep fakes, deep voices, etc. AI Even technology is applied, for example, deepfake technology is used to pretend to be a real family, so even people with good sense are often fooled by being embarrassed at that moment without realizing that it is a phishing crime.. If you look at the details, the video or audio using deepfake is definitely a bit awkward.. However, people who are older or insensitive to technology may become victims of phishing crimes, even if it is a little awkward.."-What types of phishing crimes are newly occurring or are being watched recently??"As stock prices have recently entered a boom period, it is believed that fraud crimes in investment leadership rooms have increased noticeably.. In a way 'smishing' It can be seen as a type of crime. Just out of the blue via Telegram or text message 'High-profit guaranteed investment leadership room'You are invited to and it starts from there.. For example, in the room I am in 30If there are about 100 people, everyone except me can be considered a cheater.. There the wind catchers 'My profits also soared'Then, victims try to access the actual site and start investing.. However, the real investment leaders have put in some effort to create fake sites, and the general public mistakenly thinks that the numbers that appear on the fake site are what they own.. The leading forces give relatively small profits to the victims, but then the victims put in larger amounts, and the forces deceive the victims until their investment money disappears completely.. For example, the powers that be give victims 'have to pay taxes to the US government' 'The financial authorities are checking, so you have to add or withdraw additional money.' Requesting a transaction using all kinds of rhetoric such as 'AI told you about the method, but why? BDid you do it this way?'continues to demand damages while seizing the house.. However, the profits that should be returned are not received, and only then do the victims realize the damage they have suffered and are placed in a difficult situation.."-Recently, a romance scam based in Cambodia(Fraud under the guise of love) The organization is flourishing.. What are their specific methods??“These forces never talk about money from the beginning.. SNS It starts with exchanging greetings through the back.. In fact, this is partly the responsibility of our society, where there are often not many people to ask how they are doing every day.. Once you have made them emotionally depend on you and think you have gained a certain level of trust, you can now talk about money. There are two main cases.. In the first case, it flows similarly to the investment leadership method just mentioned.. for example 'Customs clearance was tied up due to taxes, but they said they could fix it by paying a certain amount.'If the victim hands over money, 'I need to send more'There are cases in which they continue to try to swindle damages until the victims say no more..In another case, criminal forces 'There is a good investment place that I know well.'There are also cases where people are guided to investment leadership rooms.."-After a series of recent personal information leaks, citizens are increasingly concerned as they say they are receiving a lot of text messages or calls encouraging phishing..“The crimes of phishing groups often begin with clever use of social issues, such as personal information leaks.. These are text messages 'Your personal information has been leaked, so check it out.'

Rather, they receive advice from a phishing lawyer to keep in contact with the criminal. In some ways, this can be seen as a strategy to encourage investigative agencies to catch them.. It is important to provide investigative agencies with a clue to track superiors through consultation with a professional lawyer.."-Recently, there has been an increase in the number of young people who are relatively proficient in digital devices being victims of or involved in phishing crimes..

There are many unfortunate cases where people start out thinking it is a simple job due to their lack of social experience, but end up in prison.. In order to solve this, first of all 'There is no such thing as high profits without a reason.'I think it is important to have awareness of.

Attorney Minyoung Han "Rather than cutting off contact with the criminal, we should leave a 'lead'" (link) 2026-05-14T05:26:14.230Z https://www.daeryunlaw.com/en/broadcast/6007 The industry's expectations for changes in the gaming industry law are rising with the overall revision of the Game Industry Promotion Act (hereinafter referred to as the Game Act Amendment). In the past, when the law was enacted in 2006, games were viewed as objects of ‘regulation and management,’ but this amendment recognized games as creative works and shifted the paradigm to ‘culture and promotion.’ However, paradoxically, the transition period when the system changes rapidly is also the most dangerous time for companies. If you look at the details, conflicts with other existing laws or ambiguity in interpretation still remain as legal gaps or risks. The first thing to watch out for is the conflict between the expansion of autonomous classification and the Youth Protection Act. The revised bill seeks to expand the scope of private autonomous rating classification to include games not available to youth, but Article 7 of the current Youth Protection Act (Review and Decision on Media Harmful to Youth) grants the authority to review media harmful to youth to a national agency (Youth Protection Committee). Even if a company starts a service through its own rating classification in accordance with the revised Game Act, if it violates the Youth Protection Act or is judged to be ineligible for a rating, it may fall into the trap of double regulation in which the responsibility lies solely with the company. Changes in the standards for judging gambling should also be kept in mind. While the existing gaming law regulated all games in an integrated manner, the revised bill divided the regulatory system into 'digital games' and 'specific location-type (arcade) games'. The intention is to strictly manage arcade games with high risk of gambling, while relatively easing digital games. The problem arises here. Even if it is a digital game, there is a separate definition for games that simulate gambling activities such as Go-Stop and Poker. Even if it is a general RPG or casual game, there is still a risk that it will be classified as a regulated 'game imitating gambling' if the probability item presentation or mini-game method is judged to be simulating gambling. The deletion of the 'prohibition of providing prizes' clause that applied to digital games is also an opportunity and a trap. The amendment allows the provision of prizes only for digital games, enabling various business models. However, the key is convertibility (possibility of converting into cash). This is because the moment the given prize is traded for cash through an item trading site, etc., it can be considered gambling. In such uncertainty, companies must not only thoroughly prevent legal disputes, but also establish a detailed defense strategy that can prove that there was no intent or fault. First, in order to resolve the risk of autonomous rating classification, a self-rating deliberation committee must be established within the company and the discussion process must be kept in detailed meeting minutes. This proves that the company has faithfully fulfilled its duty of care based on the content of a thorough review in accordance with the standards of the Game Management Committee. Additionally, in order to prepare for speculative issues, a probability verification report must be prepared from the planning stage and managed in conjunction with the server log. In particular, before launching, it is a good idea to obtain a legal opinion regarding the BM (profit model) structure from an external law firm or professional organization stating that the system does not constitute a gambling simulation game. This serves as a strong shield for the company to defend in the future that it was not aware of the illegality. Lastly, in order to prevent the risk of exchanging prize money, it is not enough to simply include a prohibition clause in the terms and conditions. A technical lock-in device must be put in place, such as attaching items given as prizes to an account to block transactions at source or restricting the use of items. In addition, if you constantly monitor item brokerage sites and regularly produce operational action reports that sanction accounts that attempt to exchange currency, you can avoid charges of aiding and abetting gambling that may arise in the future. It is welcome that the law recognizes changes in the industry and eases regulations. However, lowering the regulatory barrier also means that the area for which companies are responsible has expanded. Preparing objective data and documented evidence to support an aggressive strategy for business expansion. This will be the surest survival strategy for the gaming industry facing a regulatory transition.

Surprisingly, it was his parents who stopped him. The parents, unable to watch their son struggling in the swamp of gambling, directly requested police arrest and investigation. Adding to the shock was the fact that the suspect was said to have been gambling on his smartphone at the moment of his arrest. Gambling addiction has gone beyond an individual's deviance and is becoming a serious social problem. According to data submitted by the Gambling Industry Integrated Supervision Committee to the office of Representative Min Hyeong-bae on the 31st, the number of gambling addicted patients increased by 127% in five years from 1,491 in 2019 to 3,391 in 2024. This year, in just August, the number of patients has already surpassed last year's total. Gambling can lead to the destruction of a person's life and family, as well as criminal punishment. In relation to this, attorney Cho Ik-cheon of Daeryun Law Firm said, "Gambling is difficult to quit through one's own will alone, and in most cases, it leads to additional crimes such as fraud or theft to raise funds." He added, "Even for first-time offenders, it is difficult to avoid imprisonment if habituality is recognized or the scale of gambling is large, so it is difficult to avoid imprisonment, so it is difficult to avoid a prison sentence from the beginning of the investigation along with professional response. "That's important," he said. The following is a Q&A with Attorney Cho. -How is the level of punishment different between simple gambling and habitual gambling? ▲According to Article 246 of the Criminal Act, a person who gambles with money is subject to a fine of up to 10 million won. However, exceptions are made when it is only temporary entertainment. However, if ‘recidivism’ is recognized, the punishment becomes much more severe. Habitual gambling can be punished by imprisonment for up to 3 years or a fine of up to 20 million won. - How is habituality judged? ▲ Habituality is determined by comprehensively considering the number, period, scale, and criminal history of gambling. If you make a living through gambling without a job, or if you bet a large amount of money over a short period of time, you are likely to be considered a habitual gambler. Recently, cyber gambling such as illegal sports Toto has become prevalent, and this is a violation of the National Sports Promotion Act and is subject to stronger punishment, such as imprisonment for up to 5 years or a fine of up to 50 million won. -Why is borrowing money to finance gambling, as in this case, considered a fraud? If you deceived and borrowed money even though you did not have the ability or intention to repay at the time of borrowing, it is a fraud. In particular, lying about the intended use is the core of deception. In the case above, it is clear that the victim would not have lent the money if he had known that it would be used for gambling, so this is a crime of fraud that defrauded the victim and stole his property. Fraud is punishable by imprisonment for up to 10 years or a fine of up to 20 million won, and can be punished aggravatedly as a concurrent crime with gambling. - Can you avoid punishment if you gambled on a site with an overseas server? ▲It is impossible. Korean criminal law follows the secularism principle, so even if a Korean gambles using an overseas server, he or she will be punished under domestic law. Recently, investigative agencies are using advanced investigative techniques such as account tracking, IP tracking, and digital forensics to track and arrest not only operators but also simple users. - When a family member is addicted to gambling, what is the most helpful way to respond? ▲Gambling addiction is both a disease and a crime. In many cases, it is difficult to resolve the issue by persuading family members or paying off the debt on their behalf. Rather, once the debt is paid off, the person returns to gambling, repeating the vicious cycle. In addition, the most important thing when involved in a related crime is to objectively prove the ‘will to prevent recidivism’. A statement of reflection that simply says “I will never do it again” is ineffective. It is helpful to receive counseling from a specialized organization, such as the Korea Gambling Problem Prevention and Treatment Center, and submit sentencing materials containing a certificate confirming that you are faithfully participating in the treatment program and a detailed supervision plan for your family.

The 11th Criminal Division of the Cheongju District Court sentenced A, a woman in her 30s, to four years in prison last November. Ms. A had 16 people, including her acquaintance B, work on OSTs for famous dramas for two years from 2023. He introduced himself as a participating music director and was accused of embezzling approximately 1.7 billion won over 381 occasions. In this process, Mr. A deceived the victims by receiving sponsorship from a broadcasting company and offering to buy goods for them at a low price. When he was investigated, Mr. A reportedly told the victims, “I will not pay back money to the person who sued me.” Accordingly, Mr. B petitioned for severe punishment, claiming that Mr. A had even induced infighting among the victims. The court sentenced Mr. A to four years in prison. The court stated the reason for sentencing, saying, “Considering the nature and method of the crime committed by the defendant, the number of victims, the number and period of the crime, and the scale of the defrauding, the guilt is very serious,” and “He was not forgiven by many victims except for some victims.” Attorney Lee In-jun of Daeryun Law Firm, who represented Mr. “We emphasized that Mr. A had an intention to deceive from the beginning, based on the fact that he has never worked at a broadcasting station and that the broadcasting station does not sell separate sponsorships,” he said.

Damage amount to at least KRW 10 billion Court says, "The scale of the crime is very large and intelligent...severe punishment is inevitable" A person in his 40s who committed fraud against his long-time co-workers and stole over 10 billion won was sentenced to severe punishment. On the 14th of last month, the 12th Criminal Division of the Daejeon District Court sentenced A, a woman in her 40s, to 17 years in prison, who was indicted on charges of fraud, forgery of private documents, and use of forged documents under the Aggravated Punishment Act for Specific Economic Crimes. He is accused of stealing investment funds from dozens of company colleagues, including Mr. B, saying, "I will make profits through real estate auctions," for about five years since 2019. The amount that Mr. A swindled from victims is known to be approximately 10 billion won. In addition, Mr. A used documents containing personal information such as his colleagues' ID cards, power of attorney, and employment certificates to open mobile phones in other people's names and write false real estate rental contracts. It was confirmed that he had even received a lease loan. In the process, Mr. A even recruited manpower to act as a fake lessor and lessee when signing a contract and committed the crime systematically. The court sentenced Mr. A to 17 years in prison. The court said, "Many victims whose names were stolen are suffering from serious pain, such as debt demands from financial institutions, etc. due to loans made without their knowledge," and "Due to the defendant's crime, there was a breakdown in loan contracts between many victims and financial institutions. He pointed out that "legal disputes over validity and invalidity are continuing." The court then pointed out, "The scale of the crime was very large, and the method of the crime was not only very bold and intelligent, but the nature of the crime was very bad in that it was committed by creating a new method that had been difficult to access until now." He added, "Considering the defendant's self-reliance, we took into consideration the fact that the possibility of recovery from damage does not seem to be high."

This provides companies with the opportunity to create new data-based business models beyond simple regulatory compliance., It will become a key foundation that determines the global competitiveness of countries and companies in the digital medical field.. 2. patent field – 13Pneumococcal vaccine ruling 2025Important precedents in the pharmaceutical and bio patent field include Pfizer and SKbetween biosciences '13A. Pneumococcal vaccine(Prevenar13) Concentrate export'There is a Supreme Court ruling regarding. of patent law ‘Principle of completeness of components’In principle, if only parts are exported, there is no infringement on the finished product patent.. However, the Supreme Court 2019Year Ensign ‘suture ruling’Even if only parts are exported, finished products are produced through∙If the finished product can be viewed as virtually identical to the exported product, ‘Direct infringement’He said he could admit it., After Pfizer-SKBioscience incident 1The trial court invoked the above legal principles and ruled that the plaintiff(Pfizer) acknowledged the party's claim of direct infringement.. however 2planted 1Overturned the trial ruling and sided with the defendant.. This Supreme Court ruling 2Reaffirming the validity of the trial decision, It is significant in that it presents clear guidelines on whether this can be considered an infringement of domestic patent rights when parts or raw materials of a patented invention produced domestically are exported overseas and turned into a finished product.. To be specific,, In the target decision, the Supreme Court SKBioscience denied both direct and indirect infringement in its act of supplying raw vaccine solution to a Russian pharmaceutical company for research purposes..

[View full article] [Contribution] Summary of major precedents and revised laws in the biopharmaceutical field in 2025 2026-05-07T05:07:52.393Z https://www.daeryunlaw.com/en/broadcast/5992 The practice of advertising and marketing agencies registering false reviews of restaurants on platforms such as Naver has not been eradicated. It is pointed out that it not only disables the review function but also reduces consumer trust. Experts warned that there is a high possibility that false reviews could be illegal, such as violating the Labeling and Advertising Act. According to related industries on the 30th, some marketing agencies are selling products that register reviews desired by business owners such as restaurants in exchange for money. They targeted major platforms such as Naver and Google, and in some cases, they sold review products of restaurant guides claiming to be Korea's Michelin Guide. The price was up to 7,000 won per review. It is known that reviewers receive 1,000 to 2,000 won in return. Agency A received 4,000 to 5,000 won per review. The business owner can convey the desired review text to the business within 300 characters. However, the number of review registrations was limited to 1 to 2 per day. This appears to be because they were conscious of the response of the platform company that monitors reviews. An official from agency A said, “Even if you write 10 reviews a day, there are many cases where they are not exposed (by the platform company).” Another agency B also sold a product that paid 5,000 won per Google Maps review. The product description said, "For new companies or industries that need to expand exposure, increasing star ratings and securing reviews is very advantageous in forming initial competitiveness," and "Automatic reflection begins within 5 to 20 minutes on average after ordering." Agencies advertise that they are based on 'actual users', but this does not mean actual products or store users. Agency B also explained that there was no need to prepare actual food. When asked whether food should be provided to the reviewer, an official from Agency B said, "A review is literally just something to make it look pretty," and "If you are not hosting a review event, you don't have to provide (food)." Possibility of violation of the Labeling and Advertising Act... Problem with ‘Poomasi’ There are also quite a few ‘Review Poomasi’ where business owners register reviews as if they were customers. On this day, hundreds of business owners gathered in a group chat room called ‘Reservation Review Marketing Study’ and exchanged reviews. There were also rules, such as having to delete records such as cache after completing the review. Woo Jin-jin, an attorney at Daeryun Law Firm, said, “Listing false advertisements for each company also has the potential to be subsumed by economic interests.” According to the Fair Trade Commission, “false reviews” by some agencies are highly likely to be a violation of the Labeling and Advertising Act. The act of requesting a review between an advertising and marketing agency and a business owner such as a restaurant is not a problem in itself, but the review writer must meet conditions such as △ specifying that financial compensation was received △ and △ actual use of the service. Violation of this constitutes deception or false advertising. There are also cases that have led to punishment. In September of this year, Mr. C, an internet consulting business, was sentenced to a fine of 10 million won by the Seoul Central District Court on charges of interfering with the business of a restaurant advertising and order brokerage platform company. He planned a business to register false reviews by receiving 1,800 won per review from restaurant owners, and paid 1,200 won per review to part-time workers who participated in the project. An official from the Fair Trade Commission said, "If the amount of false reviews is large and malicious, a fine will be imposed. If not, corrective measures such as deleting false reviews will be taken." An obligation to prohibit repetition of false reviews is also imposed. If you violate this, you may be reported to the prosecution and subject to criminal punishment. False reviews can lead to consumer distrust. Baek Gwang-hyeon, a lawyer at Barun Law Firm, said, “Complying with the Labeling and Advertising Act regulations should be viewed as the first step to gaining overall trust in customers and consumers rather than thinking of it as an effort to avoid sanctions or punishment from the Fair Trade Commission,” and added, “It is better to protect the overall brand value through trust rather than increasing short-term sales through manipulation.” Reporter Park Jin-ho (zzino@mt.co.kr)[View full article] "7,000 Won per review" Pretending to be a good restaurant and giving it '5 stars'... a fraudulent manipulation (Click here) 2026-05-12T16:31:10.903Z https://www.daeryunlaw.com/en/broadcast/5991 Recently, 'AVMOV', an illegal video sharing site called 'the second Soranet', is causing a big social stir. As the number of registered members reportedly reaches 540,000, investigative agencies also appear to be paying close attention. The police are narrowing down the tracking network by launching a large-scale mandatory investigation, including securing the IP list and payment details of paid members as well as the site operator. After the identity of AVMOV was reported, those who accessed the site or watched the video simply out of curiosity will inevitably suffer from extreme anxiety. You might console yourself by saying, ‘I used a VPN so I’m safe’ or ‘I’m not guilty because I just watched it streaming without downloading it.’ However, the core of this incident lies in the nature of the distributed video. Unlike general adult content, videos filmed or distributed without the consent of the person concerned are subject to the crime of possessing, purchasing, storing, or viewing video footage filmed using a camera, etc., pursuant to Article 14, Paragraph 4 of the Special Act on the Punishment of Sexual Crimes, etc. Simple viewing or possession can result in imprisonment for up to 3 years or a fine of up to 30 million won, so you can face uncontrollable legal liability. Many people protest, saying, "I didn't know it was an illegal video," but since the N Room (Doctor's Room) incident in 2021, the court has relatively broadly recognized the intent of non-filming by considering whether the file title contains words suggesting it is an illegal video, whether payment or remittance was made, and the nature of the category on the site. It's a trend. If torrenting is used in the process, the problem becomes more serious. Due to the nature of torrents, where file fragments are downloaded and uploaded at the same time, the crime of 'distribution' can be applied regardless of the person's intention and can result in aggravated punishment. Therefore, uploaders, downloaders, and continuous viewers need to be prepared to be contacted by investigative agencies and examine the contents more carefully. In the case of large illegal site cases, in most cases, the investigative agency issues a summons notice after already securing a large amount of evidence. At this time, hastily destroying evidence or emotionally denying the charges can lead to irreversible consequences, such as arrest and investigation. In particular, since the level of punishment for sex crimes has been greatly strengthened after the N Room incident, a complacent response is absolutely prohibited. Seung-jin Ahn, a sex crime lawyer at Daeryun Law Firm, said, "Immediately after being contacted by an investigative agency is the only 'golden time' that can change the outcome of the case. Rather than an unconditional denial or confession, the key is to explain the circumstances of the person's access and whether it was intentional with objective evidence." “The response strategy must change, and we must prepare sentencing materials and legal defense logic to prevent unfair punishment,” he advised.

To avoid aggravated punishment (Shortcut) 2026-05-14T04:17:36.051Z https://www.daeryunlaw.com/en/broadcast/5990 While Coupang Chairman Kim Beom-seok announced an apology and a so-called “compensation plan” a day before the hearing, U.S. attorney Son Dong-hoo, who is representing the U.S. class action lawsuit, said that the measure will be handled separately from the determination of legal responsibility. Attorney Son said on ‘Kim Jong-bae’s Focus’ on the 30th, “It is said to be 50,000 won compensation, but from a practical perspective, this part appears to be in response to crisis management and to prevent customer defections, so it is difficult to see it as providing any kind of compensation in legal terms.” Currently, the U.S. class action lawsuit against Coupang is scheduled to proceed in federal court. Attorney Son explained, “From the perspective of the U.S. federal court, these measures will not be viewed as compensation or closure of recovery for damages, but will be viewed separately from the determination of legal responsibility,” and “We will not judge that a reduction is given because the person committed an act for which he or she is responsible.” Regarding Chairman Kim Beom-seok's apology and Coupang's statement, the difference between the Korean and English versions was pointed out. Attorney Son said, “The Korean version appears to be aimed at the public and the National Assembly hearings, and the English version is aimed at American investors and American courts.” He added, “In the English version, the subjects were limited to ‘Coupang Korea’ and ‘Korean People.’” He continued, “We believe it was a statement made to appeal as much as possible to the court that this matter had nothing to do with the parent company, Coupang Inc.” Regarding Coupang's stock price rising more than 6% on the New York stock market, he said, "It can be seen as a big upward trend in the short term, but it is difficult to say that the problem has been resolved." He added, "The stock market largely responds to the reduction of company uncertainty." However, he added, “The volatility of the stock price may be significant depending on the progress of the court trial.” Coupang expressed concern about the mention of ‘government instructions’ in its statement. Attorney Son said, “It is a very dangerous strategy to use the word ‘government’ without specifying what kind of government or ministry it is,” and added, “This kind of reaction does not enter into the court’s judgment, but it can increase anxiety in the investment market and Korean victims.” A line was drawn regarding the possibility that public opinion in the United States could influence the lawsuit. He said, “Coupang is adopting a strategy that defines itself as a small and medium-sized business in the United States and requires protection and development,” and added, “I have no concerns that public opinion will change to the extent that it will affect the trial.” He continued, “In the United States, Coupang has been described as a ‘small and middle business’ in lobbying reports and public announcements.” Regarding Chairman Kim Beom-seok's non-attendance at the hearing, he said, "I understand that sufficient legal judgment was made." Also, regarding the impact of the hearing and the results of the government investigation on the U.S. lawsuit, he emphasized that “the fixity of the statement is more important than influencing the judgment,” and that “a statement made at a hearing becomes an official statement that is difficult to overturn in a later court.” Regarding the status of the U.S. class action lawsuit, he said, “The complaint has been prepared, and the process is ongoing due to the issue of representative plaintiff eligibility,” and “Plaintiff participation can continue even after submission of the complaint.” Regarding the current number of plaintiffs, he said, “It appears that there are more than a few thousand in the United States alone.” Attorney Son added, “As it is a federal court lawsuit, it may take a long time,” and “Due to the nature of class action lawsuits, it takes time to select a date and the discovery process.”[View full article] EToday - Will Coupang’s 50,000 won compensation plan work in the United States?

Yesterday, a day before the hearing, ‘Compensation plan’They also put out something called. There is also an interpretation that this is a move to lessen the legal burden in U.S. lawsuits.. We have invited Attorney Son Dong-hoo of Daeryun Law Firm, who is representing us in class action lawsuits in the United States.. Let's talk about it. Welcome.◎ Son Dong-hoo > hello.◎ host > First of all, I think I should ask for your evaluation of this. ‘Compensation plan’This term gets caught, but, I honestly don't know if this should be considered compensation, but anyway. 1per person 5I gave this worth 10,000 won.. How do you rate it??◎ Son Dong-hoo > As someone involved in the trial, it is difficult for me to even evaluate it, but what you said was 5It is said to be compensation of 10,000 won, but from a practical perspective, this part appears to be a part of responding to crisis management to some extent and also a part to prevent customer defection, so it is difficult to see it as any kind of compensation from a legal perspective..◎ host > Then wouldn’t the scope be narrowed and the lawsuit proceed??◎ Son Dong-hoo > yes.◎ host > What impact could this have as the lawsuit progresses?, in the results?◎ Son Dong-hoo > Since I will be litigating in a U.S. federal court, from the perspective of the U.S. court, I will not see this action as any compensation or closure of recovery for damages, but rather will view it separately from the determination of legal responsibility..◎ host > In America?◎ Son Dong-hoo > yes.◎ host > The sentence is reduced because he committed certain responsible acts., For example, I wouldn't make a judgment like this.. in american court?◎ Son Dong-hoo > yes.◎ host > is it so. Isn’t there an apology issued by Chairman Kim Beom-seok?? Then Coupang's statement came out.. So what effect will the content have??◎ Son Dong-hoo > I saw it from both sides too.. I've seen both the Korean and English versions, so I think you can think of it this way.. I think we need to think more about the audience for the statements released by Chairman Kim Beom-seok at Coupang.. The Korean version is for our people., And it appears to have been targeted at a National Assembly hearing.. And in the English version, this part is actually for investors in the United States., And since it is intended for US courts, the US statement is more limited., It's narrowed down.. range.◎ host > The expression is a little different..◎ Son Dong-hoo > yes.◎ host > That's how you read it, Even the lawyer?◎ Son Dong-hoo > Since I had to read it as a lawyer rather than emotionally, I focused on how it would be read in court.. The expression was a little different..◎ host > I'm not sure about the exact wording, but in any case, the English version doesn't contain information about suspicions, measures, etc. that are taking place in Korea. ‘It is based on false facts’ I mean, I wrote it now with this nuance..◎ Son Dong-hoo > Moreover, the subject itself ‘Coupang Korea’ and ‘Korean People’ In this way, we limited the target to Korea.. Actually CoupangIncThe parent company is an American company, and the English version released in the United States is also a statement that was clearly intended to limit the victims to Korea..◎ host > Lawyer, what you said is ‘CoupangIncIt has nothing to do with it.’ Are you saying you emphasized this??◎ Son Dong-hoo > As much as possible in court, I think it was a statement made to appeal as much as possible to the fact that they also recognized that..◎ host > Then, according to American legal principles, is there any room for that to work??◎ Son Dong-hoo > At what point did they become aware of it?, I knew to some extent, How much damage, Limiting it to Korea is in line with your persuasive legal logic when you make a statement..◎ host > For example, the results of a self-investigation were released, followed by a statement and an apology.. Then, Coupang's stock price rose on the New York Stock Exchange. 6%They say it has risen above the level, but how should this be interpreted?. ate, It was effective, Should I look at it like this??◎ Son Dong-hoo > In the short term, obviously 6%The number is a very large increase, so it can be done, but it does not mean that it worked, but rather that the actual problem itself has been solved. However, the same may be true in Korea, but stock investors and the investment market itself, The stock market considers the uncertainty of CEOs and companies to be the biggest risk factor, so when we see that the company is responding to this to some extent, the stock market itself can react stably to this.. But our price rises according to the progress of the court trial., There is a risk factor that the downtrend can fluctuate sufficiently..◎ host > Perhaps Coupang made an announcement ‘This is according to government instructions’You said. According to the announcement.◎ Son Dong-hoo > yes, yes.◎ host > However, there is a controversy over the authenticity of this in Korea, so I would like to ask you about my interpretation.. If the government is brought into this, this will become a government-to-government issue, opening the way for the U.S. to respond at the government level., Is there any room for interpretation like this?. how do you see it?◎ Son Dong-hoo > That's what I think of as Robert O'Brien, Trump in the past 1The person who was the National Security Advisor during the ‘X’I think it's related to the content I posted.. We did not consider this to be Coupang Korea's mistake in leaking damage to the government, and did not specify which government it was by using the word "government.". It is a very dangerous strategy to write this part in a statement in such a way that it is making an American company participate in an investigation by the government in Korea without saying which department did this..◎ host > a risky strategy? What do you mean by dangerous??◎ Son Dong-hoo > A person who was a high-ranking official in the previous administration ‘X’It was a long but very influential statement.. Such a response will not enter into the legal judgment of the trial at all in court.. Instead, the investment market and Korean victims become more anxious.. Trust in Korean Coupang will be lost even more.. That's why I think it's a risky strategy..◎ host > Remarks by some American media and some influential figures telling people not to mess with Coupang, How should the phenomenon being claimed be interpreted??◎ Son Dong-hoo > ‘Don't mess with Coupang’I don't think I read that part very well.. In this way, as you said, the Korean government's intervention in this specific case by American corporations could have negative consequences for President Trump's efforts to make the relationship between Korea and the United States friendly so far., I confirmed that there were parts that were expressed in a roundabout way like this.. It's very unfortunate that Coupang is causing it this way.. However, I don't think you need to worry about that because it won't have much of an impact on the court's decision..◎ host > is it so. But the picture goes like this.. When an accident occurred, Coupang conducted a sincere investigation following the instructions of the Korean government, and isn't there some measure that will be taken by the Korean government later?. Nevertheless, the Korean government took this action and caused damage to Coupang., Suppress Coupang, If the narrative is structured in this way, isn't there a possibility that it will affect public opinion in the U.S. and that public opinion created in that way may also affect lawsuits in the U.S.?. how do you see it?◎ Son Dong-hoo > Coupang's parent company is located in Delaware, USA, and these are the contents disclosed by these companies. 10-KIf you look at the annual report or lobbying reports submitted to the Senate, Coupang's American company is considered a very small company., It is expressed as a small business and as a small company, it must be protected and fostered.. It's a very different strategy from Korea..◎ host > in the united states?◎ Son Dong-hoo > yes, yes.◎ host > Since it is a small and medium-sized business, it is subject to fostering..◎ Son Dong-hoo > yes.◎ host > We need to protect?◎ Son Dong-hoo > In order to protect the e-commerce platform, I lobby a lot and hire many U.S. citizens, so I am taking a strategy as a corporation to protect it.. It's a different strategy from the very aggressive one in Korea..◎ host > Are you saying that Coupang is pursuing that strategy in the United States??◎ Son Dong-hoo > yes. Therefore, how does American public opinion change regarding Coupang?, Public opinion changes enough to affect the trial., We do not address these concerns..◎ host > Only lobbying money for several years. 150I mean, I spent close to a billion won..◎ Son Dong-hoo > That's why I studied the Senate lobbying report.. Sometimes we do it quarterly, but sometimes we do it once a lot. 100more than ten thousand dollars, 15There were times when it was more than a billion won, but as I said each time, Coupang's business is a small and medium business, and since it is a small and medium-sized business, we need to foster it and foster e-commerce, so please protect it. We will also develop the local economy by doing this., Because we have continued to lobby for this purpose, it is very different from the investment business strategy in Korea..◎ host > The reason Chairman Kim Beom-seok gave for not appearing at the hearing was that Coupang is a global company., Didn’t you put it this way because you have a lot of schedules around the world??◎ Son Dong-hoo > Also, I plan my personal schedule....◎ host > In the U.S., they call themselves a small business, but in Korea, they call themselves a global company. That seems very different, so I asked..◎ Son Dong-hoo > I'm not sure why they keep delaying it like this, but I hope you come..◎ host > Please understand what kind of person Chairman Kim Beom-seok is.?◎ Son Dong-hoo > I'm also in trial, It is inappropriate to directly evaluate the person involved in the lawsuit.. We also have such a governance structure and various statements like this., And looking at the situation so far, he is a person who has invested very aggressively and achieved success in Korea, but I hope that in addition to lobbying at the US headquarters, he will also do a lot of good work and donate a lot in Korea.. I am that part.◎ host > I wish I had donated a lot, not a lot.?◎ Son Dong-hoo > yes, I hope you do a lot in Korea too..◎ host > All right. By the way, is the recruitment of litigants over?, what happens?◎ Son Dong-hoo > no. Litigants participating in U.S. federal courts, We can continue to collect manuscripts even after we submit the complaint..◎ host > Even after submitting the complaint?◎ Son Dong-hoo > You can continue to attend later.. So, unlike Korea, we do not have to continuously attach and submit litigants, so the number is continuing to increase. Please understand that there is a delay due to the fact that we have to appear in federal court to designate a representative plaintiff..◎ host > What is the size of the lawsuits raised so far??◎ Son Dong-hoo > I'm not involved in the Korean Coupang lawsuit, so I don't know much about it because I'm an American lawyer, but it seems like there are more than a thousand people in the U.S. alone..◎ host > thousands or more. So when do you plan to submit the complaint??◎ Son Dong-hoo > ASAP, The intestines are all ready.. As you said, I continued to contact people in the area until early morning today regarding eligibility as a representative plaintiff..◎ host > We had an interview with the CEO once before, and he said he would likely submit it within the year, but if it is within the year, it would be by tomorrow..◎ Son Dong-hoo > okay.◎ host > How is this possible within the year?, Submission of complaint?◎ Son Dong-hoo > We will do our best to make it possible..◎ host > It's civil now.? this.◎ Son Dong-hoo > yes.◎ host > It takes a long time. lawsuit?◎ Son Dong-hoo > The lawsuit itself takes a long time because it is in federal court..◎ host > How much do you expect?, until the results come out?◎ Son Dong-hoo > As I said, plaintiffs can continue to participate even after the complaint is submitted.. Because it is a class action lawsuit, The purpose itself is the same for most of the plaintiffs, but since there are several sporadically, it will take a long time to select the date itself.. Afterwards, the discovery procedure, This is why we do it in the US, but this process takes time..◎ host > All right. The hearing will be held for two days starting today.. It is highly likely that a government investigation will be conducted afterwards.. Looking at the current movements of Korean politics,. Can the results of the hearing or the results of the government investigation serve as reference material for litigation in the United States or have an impact on the court's judgment?, How about?◎ Son Dong-hoo > Rather than influencing judgment, what is important to us is the consistency of the statement., statement, The remarks and attitudes you made at the hearing cannot be overturned in court, rather than being accepted as is..◎ host > It's an official statement..◎ Son Dong-hoo > yes.◎ host > Then, the reason why Chairman Kim Beom-seok did not appear at the hearing may have taken that into account.. Although it is an area of ​​interpretation.◎ Son Dong-hoo > I understand that you have made sufficient legal judgment..◎ host > I guess it's something like that.?◎ Son Dong-hoo > yes.◎ host > There is ample room for interpretation that way.. All right. I think this is where we should listen to what the lawyer says today.. Thank you.◎ Son Dong-hoo > thank you.◎ host > We were joined by attorney Son Dong-hoo of Daeryun Law Firm..[When citing content MBC Please indicate that this is an interview with.] [View full article] [Focus] U.S. lawyer says, “Coupang mobilizes conflict frame between Korea and the U.S., mentioning ‘government instructions’… ‘Dangerous strategy’ has no impact on U.S. lawsuit” (Shortcut) 2026-05-12T16:53:54.541Z https://www.daeryunlaw.com/en/broadcast/5987 Criticism posted on various community bulletin boards... “Is this for the purpose of promoting a service that you don’t know about?” Experts say, “It doesn’t seem to have any impact on Coupang’s lawsuit against Coupang… Rather, it is an admission of responsibility.” Regarding Coupang’s announcement of a compensation plan worth 50,000 won for all customers related to the customer information leak incident, citizens, including Coupang users, reacted as “an insincere attitude.” A law firm that is in the process of filing a group compensation claim lawsuit against Coupang after the Coupang incident said that the preparation of this compensation plan will not have a significant impact on the lawsuit. Rather, it was analyzed that there was an advantage in acknowledging liability for damages as it was a result of Coupang admitting its mistake. According to News 1 coverage on the 30th, when Coupang announced a compensation plan for the customer information leak the previous day (29th), a series of articles criticizing Coupang were posted in online communities. Coupang issued a notice on the same day to customers of 33.7 million accounts that received notification of personal information leakage △Coupang Comprehensive Mall △5,000 won △ They announced that they would provide purchase vouchers worth a total of 50,000 won, including 5,000 won for Coupang Eats, 20,000 won for Coupang Travel products, and 20,000 won for Alux products. It was announced that the payment will be made from January 15th of next year, and that customers who have withdrawn will also be included. Through the FAQ on the website, Coupang explained, "This is a purchase voucher given to customers who have experienced inconvenience as we fully acknowledge responsibility for the personal information leakage incident." However, cancellation of withdrawal is not possible for customers who have already withdrawn, so it will be issued sequentially when they re-enroll. Coupang users have voiced strong criticism of Coupang's compensation plan. A woman in her 30s living in Seoul Mr. Park said, "You have to make an actual purchase to use the voucher, so you have to spend it anyway, and since they say it cannot be used by withdrawn customers, don't you have to tell Coupang your personal information again?" and "Travel and Alux are services I didn't even know about, so aren't they trying to promote them through this situation?" Mr. Kim, a man in his 40s, said, "I don't know what's different from when they usually give benefits such as weekend discounts," and "Coupang gives vouchers rather than actual cash compensation." “I don’t understand what kind of damage there could be,” he said. He then said, "If you purchase a Coupang seller's product, there will be a profit left for Coupang, so it does not seem like Coupang is losing a lot." Mr. A said to an Internet community, "The attitude after the incident caused anger to build up, and seeing that it was announced as a compensation plan, it seems to have triggered the public's anger." He criticized, saying, "They are promoting it while announcing a compensation plan, and it does not appear to be sincere." Mr. B also said, "It seems like they are encouraging people to sign up while pretending to compensate." “It is only 5,000 won, but when I see personal information being sold, it seems bigger than that amount, so I don’t know what compensation means.” Meanwhile, it was confirmed that some participants are inquiring about the impact of the compensation plan at a law firm that is in the process of filing a collective damages lawsuit on behalf of Coupang users after the announcement of the compensation plan. However, experts predicted that this compensation plan will not have a significant impact on future legal proceedings. Jeong Tae-won, a lawyer at LKB Pyeongsan Law Firm, said “It does not seem to be a real compensation plan. It is just a pretense plan put forward in a situation where public opinion is not good,” he said. “It appears to be a means to be used in further legal proceedings, but it seems highly likely to have an adverse effect.” Ji-woon Jang, an attorney at Daeryun Law Firm, also said, “The compensation plan in question is nothing more than a unilateral proposal by Coupang, and even if it is paid, it does not mean that a legal settlement for the leak damage will be reached.” “There will be little impact on civil and criminal proceedings and lawsuits filed in the United States,” he said. Attorney Jang continued, “It appears that the purpose is to resolve this situation early and reflect these efforts as consideration in future administrative dispositions and civil lawsuits.” He added, “It is a situation that is highly suspicious of the purpose of intentionally concealing and minimizing the incident rather than a true intention to resolve the situation and recover damages.” A lawyer in Seocho-dong said, “This is a one-sided compensation plan that does not take into account the client’s position or reaction.” “It appears that Coupang’s liability for damages will be acknowledged in future civil lawsuits,” he said.

On the Coupang side “Period during which shareholders claimed damages 5Only one death could be identified among Coupang's 10,000 employees”claimed that.

The statement in question is 2025year 12month17This came out at a hearing on the Coupang personal information leak incident held at the National Assembly on the same day.. Coupang interim CEO Harold Rogers, who attended the hearing, said in relation to this situation: “Under U.S. law, the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission(SEC)There was no obligation to submit a report to. In fact, this type of data leak does not violate privacy laws in the United States.”said.Experts pointed out that this claim is far from the truth.. 3700The leak of personal information of 10,000 people is highly likely to be a violation of personal information laws in the United States as well.. American law firm SJKP, a local subsidiary of Korean law firm Daeryun(SJKP)Dong-hoo Son, a New York lawyer who litigated the Coupang personal information leak case, “The leaked information is very sensitive..

Recently, in the aesthetics industry, MTS(Microneedle Therapy System) Controversy over medical law violations continues surrounding the use of devices to enhance the absorption of cosmetics.. Especially the needle attached to the device.(Needle)Confusion in the field is increasing because whether or not it is a medical practice may vary depending on the length of the treatment.. Accordingly, the author recently received a non-transfer from the actual investigative agency.(No charges) Through examples that led to decisions 0.2mm MTS We would like to address the legal issue of whether the use of the device constitutes unlicensed medical practice under the Medical Service Act.. ◆ reconstruction of events : blog 'preview' The photo led to an accusation. The client was running an aesthetic salon and conducting cosmetics education and online sales business. A cosmetics(chief ingredient : Hyaluronic acid, Exisome, retinol)I wrote a post on my personal blog to promote. The problem started with the photo included in the post.. The client 0.2mm Long needle attached MTS A scene is created where cosmetics are applied to the skin using a device.. This is a demonstration shot to show how to use the product., There has never been any procedure performed on actual customers or other people.. But someone who saw this 'A non-medical person used a medical device to practice medicine without a license.'He accused the client of violating medical law.. Accordingly, the defense lawyer launched a defense through a fierce legal battle., The jurisdictional police station ultimately refused to forward the case.(No charges) made a decision. What was the key legal issue that persuaded the investigative agency?. ◆ first issue : 0.2mm With you 'medical practice' The most important issue is 0.2mm MTS The use of the device is subject to medical laws.27Preparation1prohibited by the clause 'medical practice'Was it applicable to. The Supreme Court ruled that medical practice 'Diagnosis using experience and skills based on medical expertise, Optometry, prescription, Prevention or treatment of disease through medication or surgical procedures, In addition to this, any act that may pose a risk to health and hygiene if not performed by a medical professional'Define as(supreme court 2008do277 judgment, etc.). However, recently the Seoul Administrative Court 0.25mm Using more than one needle MTS It was determined that the procedure was a medical practice that could cause harm to health and hygiene due to the possibility of infection.(2023Guhap83592). The above ruling was announced by the Ministry of Food and Drug Safety 'Regulations on medical device items and ratings for each item'this 'Medicine absorption inducing skin stimulator'cast 2Based on the fact that it is classified as a medical device,, needle length 0.25mm Lee Sang-in MTS It was determined that the device was a medical device.. If we interpret this logic in reverse, the needle length is 0.25mm Devices with less than 'home beauty equipment'This means that it can be classified as. 0.2mm Needles create microscopic passages only in the stratum corneum of the skin to help absorb cosmetics, and are unlikely to cause any real risks such as bleeding or infection.. Therefore, this is an act for purely cosmetic purposes rather than treating a disease., It is difficult to evaluate it as a medical practice that is likely to cause harm to health and hygiene if not performed by a medical professional.. ◆ second issue : 'preview'silver 'surgery'No, in order to constitute a crime of violation of medical law, 'act'must actually exist. Producing and filming a specific scene for advertising or demonstrating it for personal use is not subject to medical law.27Preparation1Unlicensed medical practice stipulated in paragraph 'execution'I can't say I did it. In this case, the client filmed himself using a device to take pictures for advertising purposes. 'production'Take a picture and post it, It was just a demonstration for customers to use for personal use.. In order for an investigative agency to prove a charge, it must reveal that the suspect received compensation from another person and practiced medicine without a license.. However, the accuser only made speculative accusations based on blog photos., No evidence was presented to identify the actual victim or the specific facts of the crime.. In the end, it is difficult to say that a simple demonstration was an act of violation of the medical law.. ◆ Third issue : Whether or not there is unfair advertising under the Cosmetics Act?13Preparation1antithesis1The law prohibits labeling or advertising that may misperceive cosmetics as medicines.. However, the client's post A It was just to guide you on how to use cosmetics effectively., It does not claim medical efficacy such as treatment or prevention of disease.. This is fundamentally different from cases where people were punished for preventing hair loss or treating dermatitis., It does not constitute unfair advertising that deceives consumers.. ◆ in the aesthetic industry 'safety line'This decision to not send the product leaves important implications for the aesthetics industry.. First, needle length 0.25mmis an important baseline for medical judgment.. 0.25mm If you use a needle of less than. Additionally, there must be a strict distinction between demonstrations on how to use the product and actual procedures performed on customers., It should be borne in mind that the demonstration itself cannot be considered an act of violation of medical law.. In addition, care must be taken to clearly distinguish between instructions on how to use cosmetics and advertisements for drug efficacy to avoid unfair advertising under the Cosmetics Act.. Those in the industry clearly understand these legal principles and 0.25mm Services must be provided within legal boundaries, such as providing guidance on the correct use of cosmetics using less than 100,000 devices.. However, in all cases, the judgment may vary depending on the specific facts., In the event of a similar dispute, it is recommended that you respond appropriately with the assistance of a legal expert..

While there is a positive response from citizens, there are also criticisms that it may be subject to crackdowns. Experts expressed their opinion that legal punishment could be imposed if license plates are covered or decorations fall off, resulting in an accident. According to the distribution industry on the 27th, decorations to decorate vehicles for the end of the year are being sold at online shopping malls. In particular, deer antlers and red nose ornaments inspired by Rudolph are popular every year. Vehicles using this decoration are also called Rudolka, a combination of Rudolph and Car. On social media, citizens brag about Rudolka or post posts saying they witnessed it. Citizen A said, “I dressed up as Santa and transformed into Rudolph to deliver a Christmas gift to my nephew.” Citizen B also said, “Even though there is no snow in Cheongdo, this year it is Rudolka to create a Christmas atmosphere.” The end of the year is a time when purchases of vehicle decorations increase rapidly. Mr. C, an official at an ornament sales company, said, "I know we sell the most in the country," and added, "The two weeks from December 10th to just before Christmas are the peak time. At times, we sell more than 1,800 items a day." Some are concerned about the possibility of being subject to crackdowns or being illegal. Related inquiries are also posted in car enthusiast cafes and blogs. To address concerns, some sales websites attached an explanation that they had received a response directly from the National Police Agency that it was not illegal. Mr. C said, “There are cases where we had customers who were cracked down on by local governments around the year before last, so we resolved the issue ourselves.” According to the National Police Agency, installing Rudolka decorations themselves is not a problem. However, if it △ blocks the view of the window too much, △ blurs the view to the extent that the lights interfere with the driving of other vehicles, △ decorations are not properly fixed, or △ covers the license plate of the vehicle, it may be subject to crackdown. Promotional images posted on some dealer websites show decorations covering the license plate, but if you do so, you may be subject to crackdowns. The Road Traffic Act stipulates that you must not drive a vehicle with a device that interferes with the function of traffic enforcement equipment or any other device that may interfere with safe driving or does not meet the standards. In addition to the license plate, decorations that block the driver's view of the side mirror and windshield may also constitute a violation of the Road Traffic Act. An official from the National Police Agency explained, "Generally, illegal attachments are subject to a fine of 20,000 won, but if they interfere with the function of traffic control equipment by blocking the license plate, you may be subject to imprisonment for up to 6 months, a fine of up to 2 million won, or detention." In some cases, decorations that emit LED lights may be considered installation of lighting devices that are not approved under the Automobile Management Act, so it is necessary to carefully consider whether they can be operated while driving. Experts agree that special attention should be paid to cases where structures fall and cause damage to other vehicles, especially when driving at high speeds. This is because it can immediately lead to civil and criminal disadvantages. Jeong Hong-cheol, a lawyer at Daeryun Law Firm's Drunk Traffic Accident Group, said, "A falling object is considered a falling object on the road, and if the windshield of the rear car breaks or an accident occurs as a result, the driver of the vehicle with the attachment is likely to be 100% responsible for negligence." Kim Kyeong-hwan, a lawyer at Withrow Law Firm, also said, "If (the attachment) is recognized as cargo, it could fall under a 'falling object accident', which is one of the 12 gross negligence cases, and could easily lead to punishment."

However, there are many confusing parts as to whether it is a sincere apology to customers or a sophisticated tactic to avoid immediate political and legal risks. Reporter Soo-jin Song reads between the lines of the apology. [Report] "My apology was late" and "I cannot help but feel devastated." Chairman Kim Beom-seok devoted half of the apology to reflection and expression of regret. 2,000 characters. Nearly a thousand letters in the middle meant an apology. However, if you remove the apology, there is a sophisticated strategy. First of all, except for the expression 'wrong judgment', the word 'wrong' was not used. Instead, the large-scale information leak and a series of situations were defined as 'failure' and 'insufficient'. Customer damage was also listed with emotional words such as 'anxiety' and 'worry', but no actual damage was specified. The reason for the delay in the apology was that it could not be helped due to the government's request to maintain confidentiality. They are indirectly blaming the government. Since it is not an intentional cover-up, it appears to be a request for indulgence. Expressions such as 'full cooperation with the government and compliance with government requests' appear everywhere. It appears to be an attempt to break the government-versus-Coupang structure that emerged with the announcement of the results of the 'self-investigation'. In his apology, Chairman Kim Beom-seok claimed that 'misinformation' is rampant and spreading, but Coupang did not reveal what the misinformation was. [Kook-il Kim/Daeryun Law Firm Lawyer/Representative in U.S. litigation: "3,000 items were saved, 100% recovered.

Chairman Kim posted an apology on the Coupang website and admitted that the initial response was inadequate and communication was insufficient, saying, "I cannot help but be devastated by the situation in which the people were disappointed." After taking steps to prevent secondary damage, all facts were confirmed and an apology was made. Chairman Kim said, "We have been fully cooperating with the government from the beginning of the investigation," and "complied with the government's request to maintain confidentiality." As a result, he explained that he was negligent in explaining to the public. He then once again emphasized the results of his own controversial investigation. "After one month of effort, we have recovered 100% of the leaked customer information," he said. "We confirmed that it was limited to 3,000 cases and that it was not distributed or sold externally," and made the 'self-conclusion' through the internal investigation a fait accompli.

Analysis to gain an advantage in the trial even if you risk domestic criticism. An analysis has been raised that the reason Coupang conducted its own investigation into the suspect of personal information leakage and arbitrarily announced the relevant information without consulting with the government was because it considered the trial in the United States to be the top priority. This means that it was done in a position where it had no choice but to lead the lawsuit filed in the United States to its advantage even if it had to endure domestic criticism. According to the legal and distribution industry on the 26th, the American law firm Hagens Berman announced the day before that it would enter a shareholder class action lawsuit on behalf of Coupang Inc investors. This is the second Coupang Inc shareholder class action lawsuit, following the shareholder class action filed by Rosen, an American law firm, on the 18th. The argument of the class action plaintiffs is clear. Coupang Inc. belatedly disclosed a serious cybersecurity incident, and shareholders suffered damage due to the resulting drop in stock price. The U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) stipulates that if a company determines that it is a serious security incident, it must disclose it within 4 business days. Coupang made a related announcement on the 16th of this month, more than two weeks after announcing the large-scale leak on the 29th of last month. Experts believe that Coupang made the announcement unilaterally, risking conflict with the Korean government in order to claim that it was not a serious security incident. It should be argued that the scale of the information leak was small, but this means that Coupang was anxious that the work progress of the Korean police and the public-private joint investigation team would not meet Coupang's expectations. The results of its own investigation announced by Coupang are in line with expert analysis. Coupang claimed that the amount of information stolen outside the company was only about 3,000 people. This is an argument that can be used as evidence that the materiality does not meet the SEC disclosure requirements. The detailed disclosure of the forensic investigation process in cooperation with American companies Palo Alto Networks and Mandiant and the laptop recovery process using divers is also interpreted as a strategy to persuade the American jury, which is composed of ordinary citizens. Son Dong-hoo, attorney at Daeryun Law Firm, said, “Based on American precedents, the issues are whether the company’s investigation and follow-up actions were sufficient and the level of severity identified,” and “In this respect, the results of the internal investigation are important references in the trial.” He explained, “It will be data.” Reporter Taewoong Bae btu104@hankyung.com[View full article] Coupang seeks U.S. certification that ‘it was not a major security incident’ (Click here) 2026-05-06T02:45:33.997Z https://www.daeryunlaw.com/en/broadcast/5977 Coupang has started recruiting people from the U.S. government and Congress to work in Washington, where the U.S. diplomatic office is located.

This is Reporter Baekwoon. This is a recruitment notice posted by Coupang Inc, the parent company of Coupang, on its website yesterday (23rd). The place of work is Washington, DC, USA. The qualification is more than 10 years of experience in the public sector such as the government and Congress, and the task is to develop and implement strategies to increase Coupang's reputation and awareness among policymakers and the media. Recently. It is believed that Coupang's newly opened Washington DC government relations office is hiring additional government relations staff. Coupang has spent more than 15 billion won in lobbying funds since its listing in the U.S. in 2021, and the number of hired lobbyists has increased from 4 to 32. The industry believes that the expansion of government relations staff is an attempt to attract more support from US political relations by emphasizing that Coupang is an American company. In addition, class action lawsuits in progress in the United States, etc. It seems that there is also a purpose to respond. In particular, in the United States, there is a 'discovery system' that requires the mandatory submission of even sensitive information from within the management, which is bound to put considerable pressure on Coupang. [Dong-hoo Son/Attorney, New York, USA: If discovery is initiated and the court gives permission, the target company is likely to have to disclose its internal security policy, incident recognition time, response process, and decision-making structure under the court's order.] Meanwhile, Coupang has filed a complaint regarding labor inspection by the local labor office in 2020. Regarding yesterday's SBS report that there were suspicions of all-round response, including eating with supervisors, the Ministry of Employment and Labor announced that it has begun a formal audit and is determining the facts.

Looking at the ‘recruitment notice’ that was suddenly posted (Go here) 2026-05-13T14:41:48.915Z https://www.daeryunlaw.com/en/broadcast/5976 (Seoul = News 1) Reporter Han Soo-hyun = Coupang independently announced its own investigation results without consulting with the government and investigative agencies in relation to the customer information leak, amid continued criticism that it was a 'self-investigation', and executives including Coupang Inc. Chairman Kim Beom-seok were additionally sued for obstructing the investigation. According to the legal community on the 26th, Jihyang Law Firm represented the victims of Coupang's customer information leak and filed charges against top executives, including Chairman Kim and Coupang CEO Harold Rogers, for obstruction of official duties. They announced that they had submitted a complaint to the Seoul Metropolitan Police Agency on charges of destruction of evidence and obstruction of business. Coupang announced in a press notice the previous day (25th) that this personal information leak incident was the sole crime of one former employee. Coupang said that, as a result of its own investigation, the employee had accessed the information of 33 million customers, but only stored the information of 3,000 accounts separately. However, while the public-private joint investigation team and police investigation are currently underway, the issue was raised that Coupang unilaterally announced the results of the investigation and announced them as if they were the results of an official investigation. The reliability of the announcement was also pointed out. Jihyang believed that Coupang's investigation and announcement of results was an attempt to interfere with the government's official investigation and work and systematically conceal the crime, and filed an additional complaint. Jihyang said, "Coupang's announcement of a 'self-investigation' is an act of deceiving both state agencies and the 33.7 million affected people," and pointed out, "It cannot be an act to neutralize the national response and mislead the investigation, rather than simply providing information." He added, "All responsibility falls on the former employee." “It was defined as a single crime committed by a single person, and the intention was to fundamentally block the possibility of systematic intervention or systemic security failure and reduce the scope of the investigation,” he said. “We cannot erase the suspicion that this is a typical ‘tail-cutting’ attempt to conceal the background of the incident and avoid top management’s responsibility.” In particular, Ji-hyang pointed out that it was a “serious act of obstruction of justice” when former employee A claimed to have personally recovered the laptop that was thrown into the river. “It is an attempt to preempt and contaminate the evidence, and it is an advanced tactic to confuse the investigation by damaging the evidentiary power and probative power of the original evidence and submitting contaminated evidence to the investigative agency,” he said. He continued, “Coupang directly interfered with the important self-protection task of responding to emergencies of each citizen by creating a false sense of security, and exposed 33.7 million citizens defenselessly to the possibility of paralysis of social life, such as massive smishing damage or account freezes.” He emphasized, “We must immediately ban all Coupang executives and employees from leaving the country, and quickly initiate a mandatory investigation, including search and seizure of the office and residences of those involved.” He added, “Chairman Kim, who is staying in the U.S., must be immediately summoned and investigated, and if he fails to comply, all means, including international criminal justice cooperation, must be taken.” Meanwhile, despite Coupang’s unilateral announcement, group lawsuits filed by Jihyang, Daeryun Law Firm, and LKB Pyeongsan are scheduled to proceed without change. Jang Ji-woon Attorney Dae-ryun said, "The fact that Coupang investigated first without handing over the identity of the secured distributor to the investigative agency raises suspicions of destruction of evidence and is highly likely to encourage distortion of the truth. It has no impact on future group lawsuits or criminal complaints." He added, "As the investigative agency is conducting the investigation, it is unlikely that the state agency will trust or cite the results of the suspect's own investigation, Coupang." He added, "The results of Coupang's investigation and the facts revealed through future investigations are unlikely to differ." “In this case, Coupang’s responsibility, including allegations of posthumous concealment, will only increase,” he added.[View full article] “Coupang’s announcement of its own investigation is obstruction of the investigation”… Chairman Kim Beom-seok additionally sued 2026-05-06T09:42:28.114Z https://www.daeryunlaw.com/en/broadcast/5975 A man who was involved in a 'currency exchange phone financial fraud (voice phishing)' crime while looking for a loan to cover his mother's medical expenses was acquitted. According to the legal community on the 26th, the Seoul Eastern District Prosecutor's Office decided not to indict Mr. A, a man in his 50s who was sent on charges of telecommunications financial fraud on the 13th of last month. Mr. A was deceived by an unidentified member of a telephone financial fraud organization last January and deposited money into his account by Mr. B. He was suspected of exchanging 15 million won into 6,000 dollars and 630,000 yen and delivering them to a gang member. Mr. B was deceived by a member of a telephone financial fraud organization who said, “You must make a deposit to receive a loan,” and deposited the money into Mr. A’s account.

Court said, "Most of the acts are not recognized as school violence...an abuse of discretion." A teenager who had been disciplined for being a perpetrator of school violence filed a lawsuit against the educational authorities to cancel the punishment and won. On the 11th of last month, the Uijeongbu District Court ruled in favor of the plaintiff in the lawsuit filed by teenager A against the superintendent of the Gyeonggi-do Guri Namyangju Office of Education to cancel the punishment for a school violence offender. Previously, the Uijeongbu District Court ruled in favor of the plaintiff. Last year, Ms. A was identified as a perpetrator of school violence by three friends from the same school. She was cited for reasons such as intentionally alienating certain people from her group of friends, creating a SNS group chat room with the exception of one person to gossip about them behind their backs, or causing embarrassment in public places. Accordingly, the School Violence Countermeasures Review Committee ordered Ms. A to perform 3 hours of school volunteer work, complete 2 hours of special education, and prohibit contact, threats, and retaliation against the victim until graduation. They protested against the school violence committee's decision. The school violence committee made its decision based on facts that were not true, and some of the plaintiff's actions could not be viewed as school violence beyond everyday fights or conflicts that occur in peer relationships. In addition, both parties claimed that the school violence committee deviated and abused its discretion in the process of considering the intentionality, seriousness, and persistence of school violence, such as gathering all cases with different periods, characteristics, and parties into one for deliberation. The court ruled in favor of both parties. There were a total of ten acts by Ms. A that the School Violence Committee used as the basis for disposition, and most of them were recognized as school violence even though they were acts that could not be evaluated as school violence as defined by the School Violence Prevention Act. The court also said, "The defendant evaluated the plaintiff's actions toward each victim as bullying on a continuous basis, but the actions toward two of the three victims cannot be recognized as school violence." The court also said, "The actions of two of the three victims cannot be recognized as school violence." He added, "Although one victim appears to have suffered psychologically, we took into consideration the fact that the conflict between the two does not appear to have started from the plaintiff's one-sided harassment." Attorney Kim Ho-jeong of Daeryun Law Firm, who acted as legal representative for Ms. A, said, "The School Violence Commission did not specifically specify the reason for the disposition regarding the content, extent, frequency, or circumstances of the act of school violence." He explained, "I emphasized that I lost it. #Disposition of school violence #Cancellation lawsuit #Court unfairness #Accident Park Seok-ho (haitai2000@ikbc.co.kr)[View full article] Why did the teenager who filed a lawsuit to cancel the school violence case win? 2026-05-09T13:27:16.161Z https://www.daeryunlaw.com/en/broadcast/5972 Coupang, which caused a large-scale personal information leak, is facing a series of class action lawsuits in the United States, where its headquarters are located. As judicial risks are gradually increasing, including the addition of the law firm that led the lawsuit related to the 'Dieselgate' emissions manipulation scandal by Volkswagen, Germany's largest automobile company in 2015, there are predictions that the US lawsuit could become the detonator of the Coupang incident. U.S. law firm Hagens Berman announced on the 24th (local time), “We have filed a class action lawsuit on behalf of Coupang investors against Coupang Inc., Coupang’s parent company.” Hagans Berman is a law firm that was the first in the United States to file a lawsuit related to Volkswagen's Dieselgate, which shocked the global automobile industry 10 years ago, and is credited with playing a leading role in obtaining compensation of $14.7 billion (about 17 trillion won in Korean currency at the time). The law firm said, "This lawsuit focuses on whether (Coupang) misled investors about the appropriateness of cybersecurity protocols." He also said, “An issue is also whether Coupang’s disclosure system was sufficient to notify investors in a timely manner within four days of a serious cybersecurity incident.” Coupang reported the relevant facts to the U.S. financial authorities on the 16th (local time), about a month after becoming aware of the leak incident (the 18th of last month). It is said that the rule that a serious cybersecurity incident must be announced within 4 business days was violated. This law firm plans to recruit additional Coupang Inc investors who have suffered damages by February 17th next year. The industry predicts that judicial risks originating from the United States may be the detonator of the Coupang incident. In particular, in the United States, there is a 'discovery system' in civil litigation that mutually discloses evidence held by the parties before the trial begins, so if the law firms' claims are accepted, Coupang Inc may have to disclose sensitive data such as internal meeting minutes and emails. Another reason to pay attention to the U.S. lawsuit is that if punitive damages are applied, the amount of compensation could be astronomically high. On the 18th (local time), attorney Lawrence Rosen and U.S. shareholders of Coupang Inc filed a class action lawsuit, saying, “Coupang’s inadequate security protocols allowed a former employee to gain unauthorized access to customer information for six months.” They cited ‘damage to shareholder value due to security failure’ and poor disclosure as justification for the lawsuit. Korean law firm Daeryun's U.S. subsidiary (SJKP) is also preparing a consumer class action lawsuit against Coupang Inc.

The law firm that first sued Volkswagen for ‘Dieselgate’ joins the company 2026-05-13T14:55:10.448Z https://www.daeryunlaw.com/en/broadcast/5968 Recently, the number of cases where corporate executives are at the center of legal disputes is increasing due to the strengthening of the Severe Accident Punishment Act, the implementation of amendments to the Commercial Act, and the spread of shareholder activism. The ‘individualization of risk’ is accelerating, such as claiming compensation for damages or holding individual executives criminally liable. Accordingly, the size of the directors' liability insurance (D&O insurance) market is steadily growing every year. This product is a system that guarantees damages and litigation costs when financial damage occurs to shareholders and third parties due to an executive's professional negligence or failure to fulfill obligations. According to the Financial Supervisory Service, this year's D&O contract size is expected to increase by about 15% compared to the previous year to approximately 62 billion won by September. Compared to countries where such insurance is active, such as the United States, the United Kingdom, and Japan, the prevailing opinion is that it is still in its infancy, but this proves that the sense of legal crisis felt by executives is increasing. However, when an accident occurs, insurance payments are often rejected, or fierce legal battles break out between insurance companies and executives over the scope of compensation. So, what are the legal issues of D&O insurance that corporate managers must be aware of? First of all, we must clearly understand the scope of 'damages' covered by D&O insurance. The core of this insurance is to compensate for the resulting damages when an executive becomes legally liable for damages to a third party due to an unfair act committed while performing his or her duties. The unfair act referred to here is a broad concept that encompasses business negligence, negligence, mistakes, and omissions. This works in conjunction with the scope of responsibility of executives set by laws such as Article 399 (liability to the company) and Article 401 (liability to third parties) of the Commercial Act. The problem arises immediately after the accident occurs, at the stage of interpretation of the insurance company's disclaimer clause. Since many executives have purchased insurance, we believe the majority of legal costs will be covered. However, the insurance terms and conditions state that damages caused by ‘intentional or criminal acts’ are not compensated. Even if you are found guilty in a criminal case, no insurance money will be paid. In other words, if an investigation is initiated on charges of embezzlement, breach of trust, or violation of the Capital Markets Act, it is very likely that the insurance company will judge this as a reason for exemption and withhold or refuse insurance payment. Many clients knock on the door of law firms when faced with such situations. In this case, the lawyer's assistance does not stop at simply criminal defense against the investigative agency. Legally proving from the early stage of the investigation that the charge is a negligence in management judgment rather than an intentional crime is a key judgment standard when disputing immunity during the insurance payment process in the future. Only by proactively responding from the investigation stage when the charges are not confirmed can you prevent insurance payments from being rejected in the future. Just as important as insurance payment is the issue of burden of litigation costs. Typical damages lawsuits take several years until the Supreme Court makes a final decision, and it is virtually impossible for individual executives to cover large amounts of attorney fees and litigation costs until a decision is made. For this reason, it is necessary to utilize the 'advance payment clause for defense costs' in the terms and conditions to ensure that legal costs are paid in advance by the insurance company even before the judgment. However, for risk management purposes, insurance companies tend to be reluctant to pay out before the judgment is confirmed. This is because there is a possibility that the money already paid may not be returned if the grounds for exemption are recognized in the results of a future trial. Accordingly, it is important to persuade the insurance company through a letter of promise to return prepaid expenses when the grounds for exemption are confirmed. In this way, D&O insurance is more than a simple financial product, but a complex legal contract directly related to the survival of executives. The structure is such that insurance companies try to minimize payments by imposing strict terms and conditions, and executives must prove the legitimacy of their management activities and request defense. In the end, D&O insurance is an economic safety device that supports active management activities, but signing up does not automatically resolve all legal risks. True risk management is completed by establishing a compliance management system and responding to a crisis by closely analyzing insurance terms and conditions and commercial law responsibilities with legal experts from the beginning when a crisis occurs.

According to the legal community on the 24th, the 2nd Criminal Division of the Jeju District Court acquitted teenager A, who was indicted on charges of violating the Special Act on the Punishment of Sexual Crimes, etc. on the 18th. In 2024, A was accused of sexually assaulting B, an elementary school student whom he had known, by threatening to "tell people around me about my sexual relationship" and sending obscene photos. I'm receiving it. However, Mr. A denied the charges and claimed, “It is true that I dated Ms. B, but I was not forced to have sexual intercourse.” He also raised questions about the credibility of Ms. B’s statement by pointing out that the location of the crime and the circumstances at the time that she stated were constantly being changed. Regarding the charge of sending obscene photos, Ms. B did not show any resistance at the time, but rather continued the conversation naturally. The court said, “The victim’s statement is inconsistent and objective, with the details of the damage changing.” “There are some contents that contradict the facts,” the ruling said. “It is possible that the victim falsely stated that she was a victim of sexual violence because she was afraid of being reprimanded by her guardian for her relationship with the defendant.” He continued, “The victim did not express any objection to the photos sent by the defendant and continued the conversation casually,” and declared “A not guilty,” saying, “It cannot be seen that he sent a sexually humiliating message against the victim’s will.” Lawyer Yongdu Park of Daeryun Law Firm, who represented A, said. “If there is no direct evidence other than the victim’s statement, there should be no room for reasonable doubt about the statement in light of objective circumstances or rules of experience,” he explained. “Based on the history of the two people’s relationship, we were able to obtain a not guilty verdict by emphasizing the lack of objectivity in Ms. B’s statement.” Intern reporter Seo Da-hee happiness@kyeonggi.com[View full article] High school student found not guilty on sexual assault charges...

As a class action lawsuit is being pursued in the U.S. surrounding Coupang's large-scale personal information leak, the 'discovery (evidence discovery)' system is attracting attention as a key procedure that will determine the success or failure of the lawsuit. There are predictions that the U.S.-style litigation structure, which, unlike in Korea, allows forcibly securing internal company data, will be a watershed in dividing the scope of responsibility of Coupang's headquarters. According to the legal community on the 23rd, SJKP, the U.S. branch of Daeryun Law Firm, plans to file a consumer class action lawsuit against Coupang Inc, Coupang's parent company, in New York federal court at the end of this month or early next year after completing the recruitment of plaintiffs. Daeryun explains that the core of the lawsuit is to determine whether the headquarters was responsible for security investment and internal control rather than the personal information leak itself. Coupang I&C, listed on the U.S. stock exchange, is the parent company that owns 100% of Coupang Korea Corporation. The strategy put forward by SJKP is the American discovery system. Discovery is a process in which documents and electronic information held by the other party are compulsorily submitted prior to the trial on the merits, and can even include company internal data such as board meeting minutes, internal reporting data, security budget decision documents, and email and messenger records from the incident response process. SJKP's position is that through this, it will confirm whether Coupang's headquarters took appropriate response or management/supervision measures after the personal information leak incident. The legal world believes that discovery itself can be a significant burden on companies. Kang Dong-hee, an attorney at Yoon & Yang Law Firm, explained, “Unlike Korea’s document submission order, U.S. discovery allows for extensive internal data acquisition and even includes testimony from executives and employees in the process,” adding, “It can also be used as a means of pressuring companies to reach an early agreement.” Some analyzes say that Discovery's impact could be greater in shareholder class action lawsuits than in consumer lawsuits. Lee Eun-woo, a lawyer at Hyangyang Law Firm, said, “Discovery means preserving related data rather than deleting it before the full-scale evidence begins,” and predicted, “In this case, the impact through a shareholder class action lawsuit may be greater than that of the victims of domestic information leaks.” As a shareholder class action lawsuit is a case in which the amount of damage is large and law firms invest intensive manpower and resources, the explanation is that internal documents and the contents of witness interviews secured through a full-scale discovery process after the data freeze can be key evidence in determining who is responsible. Currently, in the United States, apart from consumer lawsuits, a class action lawsuit is being pursued centered on shareholders who suffered damage from the stock price drop due to Coupang's personal information leak. We the People Law Firm has begun recruiting litigants to file a shareholder class action lawsuit in New York federal court, and is considering the timing of recognition of the information leak incident and whether there is a delay in disclosure as key issues. The law firm believes that Coupang did not fulfill its obligation to disclose personal information in a timely manner as required by the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) even though it was aware of the personal information leak. In addition, in the business report submitted in February of this year, it is said that key information regarding the 'possibility of cyber security threats having a significant impact on the company' was falsely or poorly disclosed. If a company's reputation or customer trust is damaged due to a cyber security incident, the SEC considers it a 'serious incident' and stipulates that it is subject to disclosure. The legal community believes that the possibility that failure to disclose the leak in time or to minimize the risk may fall under these standards cannot be ruled out.[View full article] ‘Discovery’ emerged due to the Coupang incident… It became a key strategy in U.S. court lawsuits [Evidence discovery system, changing the game] (Shortcut) 2026-05-03T11:44:41.910Z https://www.daeryunlaw.com/en/broadcast/5964 Assault by pulling arm of protesting subordinate... 1st trial 'fine 300,000 won' appeal court: "Defendant is responsible for sales and employee management...action to prevent chaos in the store" A man who was put on trial for assaulting a subordinate was sentenced to a fine in the first trial, but was acquitted on appeal. The 2nd Criminal Division of the Gwangju District Court overturned the original decision that imposed a fine of 300,000 won at the appeal trial of a man in his 50s who was sent to trial on assault charges on the 19th of last month and found him not guilty. He was sentenced. Mr. A was accused of assaulting Mr. B by pulling his arm during an argument with his subordinate, Mr. B, over business practices within the company last year. The prosecution deemed that this charge was acceptable and summarily indicted Mr. A with a fine of 300,000 won, and the court also issued a summary order. However, Mr. A, who did not comply, requested a formal trial. During the trial, Mr. A claimed that he only grabbed Mr. B's arm to move to another place and did not pull him. He claimed that there was no intent. The court of first trial sentenced him to a fine. The court said, "If you look at the CCTV footage, you can see the defendant moving while holding the victim's arm," and said, "It is reasonable to believe that there was intention to assault because the victim refused the defendant's actions to take her out of the store." However, the judgment of the court of second trial was different. The appellate court said, "At the time, another employee and a customer were consulting nearby, and if the main content of the argument was heard by the customer, the contract could not be concluded." It was ruled that the purpose of the defendant's actions was to calm the victim and take her outside to prevent disruption or confusion in the business by calming the victim down and taking her outside." He added, "The extent of the exercise of tangible force was not significant when he grabbed the victim's arm once to express his intention to go out with him and then released it," adding, "As a person in charge of sales and employee management, the defendant's actions were justified." Attorney Jeong-hoon Kang of Daeryun Law Firm, who represented Mr. A in the appeal trial, said, "The specific act was “Whether it constitutes self-defense is judged based on the legitimacy of the purpose and the appropriateness of the means,” he explained. “Based on Mr. A’s duties and the circumstances of the store, we were able to obtain a not guilty verdict by emphasizing that there was no intention to attack.”[View full article] A man in his 50s who assaulted a subordinate was found not guilty on appeal.

Mr. B claimed, “Mr. A and others threatened to inform the company and family of the job request and demanded money, and I was unable to resist, so I was forced to prepare a false notarized certificate worth 300 million won.” Mr. A completely denied the charges. Mr. A countered, saying, “In the past, I paid 50 million won to Mr. B to ask for a job, but it didn’t work out, so I just asked for compensation for the damages.” He added, “Mr. B tortured me for 5 years in hopes of getting me a job at a famous manufacturer listed on the KOSPI, and the notarized deed was also written after Mr. B voluntarily proposed compensation for damages.” The prosecution decided not to file an indictment. The prosecution explained, “The essence of this case is that the complainant, Mr. B, committed employment fraud by deceiving clients and stealing money,” adding, “In fact, Mr. B has already been indicted on this charge.” He added, “Considering that Mr. B has written several handwritten confirmations that he will compensate a large amount of money in the past when he fails to find a job, the notarized deed is judged to be a legitimate contract in the nature of compensation for damages by agreement between the parties, not a threat.” Attorney Kim Geun-soo of Daeryun law firm, who represented Mr. “We were able to get rid of the unfair charges by proving that the notarized certificate was a fair compensation agreement for 5 years of damage,” he said.

In Busan, collective action appears to be in full swing, starting with a press conference by a civic group on the 15th, followed by the submission of complaints through law firms. According to Daeryun Law Firm on the 23rd, more than 3,900 people have participated in the lawsuit for damages against Coupang Inc, which is being filed by SJKP LLP, a local partner law firm in the United States. Coupang Inc, Coupang's parent company, submitted a report titled 'Significant Cybersecurity Incident' to the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) on the 16th (local time). According to SEC regulations, companies listed on the U.S. stock market must make a disclosure within four business days from the date the company determines a cybersecurity incident to be ‘serious.’ However, controversy arose because the disclosure was made only a considerable amount of time after Coupang became aware of the incident. In addition, Harold Rogers, Coupang's interim CEO, received strong criticism when he attended a National Assembly hearing on the 17th and said, "Although we are not subject to disclosure obligations, we made the disclosure in consideration of continued interest." In particular, social public anger is not expected to subside easily as it is pointed out that Coupang is going beyond the controversy over simply 'delayed disclosure' and is consistently avoiding legal responsibility rather than resolving the situation. Voices of criticism are also coming from the industry. In particular, it is evaluated as a clear contrast to the actions of other companies that were in similar situations in the past. Previously, Kakao quickly formed a damage support council when a fire in 2022 paralyzed related services and caused damage. SK Telecom also announced measures for victims, such as free SIM card replacements, when a customer information leak occurred. An industry official who requested anonymity explained, "There are stories inside and outside the industry that Coupang is holding meetings with domestic and foreign law firm officials in preparation for class action lawsuits in the U.S." and "It seems like they are putting more emphasis on legal action than on preparing measures for consumers." The government also drew its sword. On the 18th, Deputy Prime Minister and Minister of Science, ICT and Future Planning Bae Kyung-hoon submitted the 'Coupang Incident Pan-Ministry Response Direction' as an emergency agenda at the 2nd Science and Technology Ministerial Meeting held at the Seoul Government Complex and began emergency response by forming a task force (TF) team. This TF aims to go beyond simple accident resolution and prepare fundamental measures such as reforming the information security certification system and strengthening corporate responsibility. However, some are raising concerns about institutional limitations. An official in the security industry predicted, “For Coupang, defending against a U.S. lawsuit that applies punitive damages will be the top priority,” and added, “Despite pressure from the government, it is highly likely that it will remain passive until the end in announcing an apology or compensation plan that could serve as unfavorable evidence in a lawsuit.” Reporter Baek Jae-hyun (itbrian@newsis.com)[View full article] Consumers are angry at Coupang for avoiding responsibility... Class action lawsuit in full swing (link) 2026-05-13T00:45:29.165Z https://www.daeryunlaw.com/en/broadcast/5958 ■ Coupang's U.S. shareholders also file class action lawsuit: "Shareholder value was damaged by delayed disclosure" The issue of violation of SEC regulations appears to be a major blow as it is combined with a consumer lawsuit. Coupang's personal information leakage situation has spread into a class action lawsuit for shareholders in the United States. While the focus has been on consumer class action lawsuits surrounding personal information infringement, this time, even shareholders who raise issues about violation of disclosure obligations and damage to shareholder value have taken legal action. There are evaluations that cracks are appearing in Coupang's defense logic, which has argued that "there is no problem under U.S. law" regarding delayed disclosure. According to related industries on the 21st, the key issue of this shareholder class action lawsuit filed in the U.S. District Court for the Northern District of California is the fact that Coupang Inc, Coupang's parent company, failed to disclose the incident in a timely manner even after being aware of it, rather than the personal information leak itself. The plaintiff claims that Coupang only described cyber security risks at the level of ‘potential risk’ through quarterly reports (Form 10-Q), etc., but in reality, a large-scale personal information leak by a former employee had already occurred. As a result, investors made investment decisions based on distorted information. With this lawsuit, whether Coupang violated the disclosure regulations of the U.S. securities authorities is expected to emerge as a major issue. The U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) requires disclosure within 4 business days when a serious cybersecurity incident occurs, but the plaintiffs believe that Coupang did not fulfill its obligation to disclose to the U.S. SEC within 4 business days from November 18, when it became aware of the incident. In relation to this, Coupang has maintained its position that “the personal information leak issue is not serious.” Coupang CEO Harold Rogers also said at a hearing held at the National Assembly on the 17th, “This matter is not classified as a serious incident by US standards, so there is no obligation to disclose to the SEC.” However, due to this shareholder class action lawsuit, Coupang's judgment itself has become subject to verification by the court. There is a greater possibility that the issue of whether a company can unilaterally judge the ‘gravity’ of an accident or whether it should be judged from the investor’s perspective will be dealt with in earnest in court. This lawsuit is also noteworthy in that it is different in nature from existing consumer class action lawsuits. While consumer class action lawsuits contend with a company's violation of its personal information protection obligations and invasion of privacy, shareholder class actions take issue with stock price declines and investment losses caused by the company's failure to disclose, financial information, and internal control. The underlying law is also the U.S. Securities and Exchange Act, not the Consumer Protection Act. An official from Daeryun Law Firm said, “In the case of a shareholder class action lawsuit, it could not only lead to the burden of a large settlement amount, but also lead to management liability issues and an SEC investigation, which could cause an immediate blow to corporate management.” In addition, there is an analysis that Coupang’s legal burden is growing further as a consumer class action lawsuit is underway at the same time. Previously, SJKP, the American branch of Daeryun Law Firm, officially filed a consumer class action lawsuit against Coupang Inc in the New York Federal Court on the 8th of this month (local time), and the number of participants in the lawsuit was reported to have reached about 2,000 in four days. In Korea, a number of law firms, including Cheong Law Firm and Jihyang Law Firm, have filed class action lawsuits against Coupang. Seong Woo-rin, an attorney at Dae-kyung Aju Law Firm (Limited), said, “In Korea, a consumer class action lawsuit for damage from personal information leakage and a shareholder class action lawsuit for stock price declines are underway simultaneously in the U.S.” He added, “In the case of shareholder lawsuits, the structure is to claim compensation for the decline in the value of stocks held, so there is a possibility that astronomical damages will be calculated on a much larger scale than the damage to personal information leakage.” “There is,” he said. He added, “Since the stock price has actually fallen, there is a possibility that the shareholders will win.” He added, “If the shareholder class action lawsuit and the consumer class action lawsuit are combined, Coupang can be seen as having entered a significant risk phase from a legal and financial perspective.” Reporter Lee Yong-seong (utility@sedaily.com)[View full article] When you lose, you pay astronomical amounts of compensation...

A sophisticated design of the wage system must be supported. 1969born in AMr. Coming 2029year retirement age(60count)When you retire, you will receive national pension. 5have to wait years. This is a time when savings are not enough and re-employment is not easy.. Our country has already 65The proportion of population over the age of 20%We have entered a super-aging society, exceeding, The total birth rate is 0.7While staying at Ming University, the decline in labor force became a reality.. On the other hand, the age for receiving national pension is 2033year 65The trend is gradually increasing until the age of. legal retirement age 60Between taxes and pension benefits 5This is why an income gap of about a year or so occurs structurally..Raising the retirement age fills this gap while also utilizing skilled workers for a longer period of time., It is being presented as a means to alleviate the financial burden of pensions.. However, youth employment declines, Increased labor cost burden, There are also many concerns about deepening generational conflict.. Korean society is now, 'retirement age 65How to prepare for the three eras'I am standing in front of a huge question:. There is considerable consensus on the direction of increasing the retirement age.. However, if you do not sufficiently prepare for increased corporate burden, etc. 2010A cautious legislative approach seems necessary as the confusion experienced when the peak wage system was introduced in 2018 could be repeated.. 'Legislation within the year' aimed ruling party, The Democratic Party of Korea's Special Committee on Retirement Age Extension presented three proposals. 2current retirement age 60From three 65Three scenarios were presented to labor and management, gradually raising the age to 30.. All three plans are the same in that they extend the retirement age., There are differences in speed and stage composition..1Ahn is 2028since 2036by year 2in year 1Raise the retirement age by years 8After years 65It is relatively quick to reach age 3.. 2Ahn is 2029since 2039by year 10over the years 61·62The three sections are 3every year 1year, 63·64The three sections are 2every year 1It is a compromise solution to raise the price by year.. last 3Ahn is 2029since 2041by year 12years 3every year 1Raise it by year, most gently 65It is a content that reaches the age of three.. All three plans raise the retirement age and re-employ retirees.(After retirement 1~2year re-employment)combined. The plan is to adjust the workforce gap around retirement age and the burden on companies.. The ruling party aims to enact legislation within the year, but, The final plan is expected to continue to be adjusted between the labor community's demands for speed and the management's concerns.. 15If you don't want to follow the footsteps of the peak wage system from a year ago,… It is difficult to deny the necessity of extending the retirement age.. In the reality of a super-aging society and an increase in pension starting age, 60Neglecting an income gap after retirement causes great anxiety for both individuals and society.. able to work longer, As the number of healthy seniors increases, the existing structure of forcing skilled workers to leave is also criticized as being irrational in terms of economic efficiency..However, the retirement age 'how much to raise' no less 'What kind of wage and employment structure will it be combined with?'is also important. If the retirement age is raised hastily and the connection with wages, jobs, re-employment, and pensions is lost, youth employment will decline., Labor costs soar, Side effects such as conflict between the older and younger generations may shake up the discussion on extending the retirement age.. 2013Due to the revision of the Elderly Employment Act in 2018, the statutory retirement age was raised. 60As the wage increased, many companies introduced the peak wage system to ease the burden of labor costs and maintain employment.. At the time, the law encouraged reform of the wage system by extending the retirement age and the introduction of a peak wage system, but the extent of the wage reduction was limited., target action, No specific guidelines were provided regarding age discrimination criteria, etc.. This gap was later filled by the courts.. The Supreme Court 2022In the case of the annual retirement age maintenance wage peak system, 'Does this constitute age discrimination without reasonable grounds?'The degree of wage reduction as a criterion for judging, Existence and substance of target measures, The use of resources saved by the wage peak system was suggested.. Since then, lower courts have ruled that the wage peak system introduced by companies is invalid.. Recently, even with regard to the retirement age peak wage system, a drastic reduction in wages cannot be justified just because the retirement age has increased., It was even judged that excessive wage adjustments combined with insufficient target measures were invalid..The result of leaving it up to field autonomy without setting clear standards at the legislative stage., The system introduced through social agreement between labor and management was belatedly invalidated by the court.. Companies now have the obligation to pay large amounts of wages, going back to the past.. This creates unpredictability for both workers and companies, and is also an undesirable result in terms of legal stability and trust protection principles.. Clear guidelines such as wage system are needed for this retirement age. 65The most important thing to watch out for in the three discussions is 65It is a hasty legislation that is only focused on the speed of achieving the goal.. In addition to raising the retirement age, legislators must hold specific and forward-looking discussions on at least the following issues:. First, regarding the company's wage system, how will the seniority-based wage system be converted to one centered on job and performance?, As a necessary measure in response to the extension of retirement age, separate legislation or clear guidelines are needed on what systems other than the peak wage system will be recognized.. Procedures related to retirement age and wage reform to prevent disputes similar to the peak wage system from recurring, It also seems necessary to clarify the standards for designing the wage system..Extending the retirement age is an inevitable task to increase the sustainability of an aging society.. However, if it is promoted in a way that undermines legal stability, it will diminish the company's mid- to long-term manpower and investment plans., This could ultimately come back as a headwind for jobs and growth.. Only when elaborate design is supported from the legislative stage 'retirement age 65three eras'will be able to settle on social trust.

Daeryun, which was held on the 16th, was held in the conference room of Daeryun's headquarters office in Yeouido, Seoul. It was prepared in cooperation with the Korea Corporate Disaster Management Association and the Korea Continuity Research Institute Co., Ltd. This seminar, which was prepared to explore practical corporate response measures in response to the expansion of the Severe Accident Punishment Act, was attended by practitioners in charge of disaster, safety and risk management within companies and showed great interest. The seminar consisted of a total of three sessions, with experts from each field appearing as presenters. In the first session, Yang Jun, CEO of the Korea Continuity Research Institute Co., Ltd., said, He gave a lecture on the topic of 'Measures for activating disaster reduction activities'. Representative Yang emphasized the need to respond to internal and external risks by combining the Severe Disaster Punishment Act and Business Continuity Plan (BCP). In particular, it was explained that a safety culture should be established that analyzes disasters by segmenting them according to severity and prevents even minor accidents from developing into major disasters through thorough investigation. The second session was led by Team Leader Jong-pil Park of the Korea District Heating Corporation and continued with his presentation on the topic, 'Why do companies' disaster safety measures fail in the field?' Team Leader Park pointed out the limitations of regulation-centered safety management through an analysis of the recent status of industrial accidents and called for a paradigm shift to an autonomous safety culture. In addition, through the case of the Korea District Heating Corporation's AI-based smart safety management platform, he introduced how digital transformation and new technology linkage lead to real-time on-site monitoring and improved safety levels for partners. In the last session, Attorney Jeong Sang-hyeok of the Daeryun Corporate Advisory Center gave a presentation on the topic of 'An organization's legal risk response in the event of a serious disaster.' Attorney Jeong looked at the background of the introduction of the Severe Accident Punishment Act and the structure of the provisions, while providing step-by-step guidance on the case handling procedures that companies must follow in the event of an accident. In addition, it analyzed key factors that determine punishment based on frequent accident cases such as falling and getting caught and actual judgments, and guided companies' practical prevention methods and response strategies. Daeryun Kim Kuk-il, CEO of Daeryun, said, "In the event of a disaster, the actual operation of the pre-emptive response system and the level of legal risk response are becoming key factors that determine the existence or failure of a company." Daeryun announced that since the expansion of the Serious Accident Punishment Act, it has expanded related centers within the corporate legal group and is providing customized legal advice and risk management services to companies through lawyers specializing in related fields such as labor and industrial accidents.[View full article] Jose Ilbo - Daeryun, disaster reduction and risk response seminar... “Presenting corporate crisis management practical solutions” (link) Money Today - Korea Corporate Disaster Management Association holds seminar with Daeryun and Korea Continuity Research Institute (Go here) 2026-05-13T00:19:34.403Z https://www.daeryunlaw.com/en/broadcast/5954 [Anhamuin Coupang, effective competition is the answer] Lina Khan’s warning… A structure in which illegal profits are greater than fines [Editor's Note] There is an analysis that Coupang's continued controversies and absence from the National Assembly resulted from the absence of a check force in the market. Structural problems in which the profits from a monopoly position are judged to be greater than regulatory costs such as fines are also considered to be the cause. It is pointed out that the government's artificial intervention or moral appeal alone has its limits. Normalizing the distribution ecosystem by restoring ‘effective competition’ and establishing prior regulations in line with global standards are presented as fundamental solutions. There is criticism that Coupang's repeated controversies stem from capitalist profit and loss calculations in which 'the profits gained from illegal activities are greater than fines.' Experts advise that it is urgent to introduce a system that imposes punitive compensation that affects the existence of a company and holds direct criminal responsibility for management. According to the industry on the 18th, Coupang has been sanctioned several times for violating the Fair Trade Act, but was imposed a low fine compared to its sales volume. Following 8 million won in false and exaggerated advertising in 2017, 3.297 billion won in abuse of power against suppliers in 2021, and 400 million won in violation of the Subcontracting Act in 2022, the company was fined 162.8 billion won last year for algorithm manipulation. Coupang expects annual sales of 50 trillion won this year. Assuming that 15 million WoW membership subscribers pay the monthly fee without leaving each month, Coupang's annual sales from subscription fees alone are more than 1.4 trillion won. The calculation is that even if the Fair Trade Commission imposes fines worth trillions of won, it will be difficult to damage the company's financial structure. Former Chairman of the U.S. Federal Trade Commission (FTC), Lina Khan, an expert in big tech antitrust regulation, said, "If the profits gained from violating the law are greater than the fine, it is a failure of law enforcement," and emphasized, "We should not allow a situation where fines are simply regarded as business costs." Industry official A said, "Coupang is a supplier with labor issues." He criticized the company, saying, “Despite all-round criticism, including abuse of power and government regulations, we are consistently refusing to respond under the pretext of ‘customer convenience.’” He added, “This is a method rarely seen in Korean companies.” Legal experts say, "Criminal charges are more effective than fines... Punishment of those responsible must be strengthened." Gye-Jun Son, a lawyer at Daeryun Law Firm, said, "Companies with large sales do not care much about the amount of fines imposed by the Fair Trade Commission," and suggested strengthening 'criminal punishment' for top managers as a solution. He is an expert in the field of fair trade who has served in key positions at the Fair Trade Commission, including the Subcontracting Division, Cartel Division, and Litigation Affairs Office. Attorney Son explained, "What companies are most afraid of is the CEO being reported to the prosecution," adding, "Companies become nervous only when a separate investigation is conducted in addition to the Fair Trade Act and the CEO is directly the subject of investigation." He went on to suggest, “We need to strengthen the criminal punishment provisions specified in individual laws such as the Personal Information Protection Act and make the CEO, the top person in charge, take legal responsibility when a serious illegal act occurs to create deterrence.” This is an analysis that could put direct pressure on executives such as Coupang Chairman Kim Beom-seok, who has recently been controversial for failing to attend the National Assembly. Experts emphasize a regulatory shift from 'post-detection detection' to 'proactive discipline'. A representative example is the ‘Platform Fair Competition Promotion Act’ (Platform Act) being promoted by the Fair Trade Commission. The goal is to designate market-dominant business operators in advance and block the four major illegal practices, such as preferential treatment and tie-in sales. There is also a need to introduce a 'temporary suspension order' that immediately suspends services if irreparable damage is expected even before a final judgment is made. It is a device to prevent market disruption caused by continued illegal activities. There is an urgent need to shift the burden of proof in the EU style and expand punitive damages in the Korean style. Shifting the burden of proof and expanding the punitive damages system to increase the effectiveness of regulations are also tasks. For cases that are difficult to prove, such as algorithm manipulation, platform companies should be held responsible for proving their integrity when suspicions are raised, as in the European Union's Digital Market Act (DMA). Some argue that the 'punitive damages system' introduced in the domestic subcontracting law should be expanded to cover all platform monopoly activities. Currently, the Subcontracting Act stipulates compensation of three times the actual loss for five major acts, such as unfair price reduction and cancellation of consignment. Since last August, liability for compensation for technology theft has been strengthened up to five times. Attorney Son argued, "The United States' triple punitive damages system was introduced because it was proven to be effective in suppressing actual illegal activities," and added, "As there is discussion in Korea that the compensation limit should be increased up to 10 times to resolve the recent controversy over punitive punishment, we should consider introducing an effective penalty." On the 17th, the National Assembly's Political Affairs Committee discussed personal information leaks, etc. An amendment to the Personal Information Protection Act was passed, raising the upper limit of fines for serious violations from 3% of total sales to a maximum of 10%. If this law is applied, Coupang's fine will increase to a maximum of 5 trillion won. However, Coupang's information leak occurred before the amendment was passed, so it is excluded from retroactive application. Accordingly, Song Kyung-hee, chairman of the Personal Information Protection Committee, said, "There is a need to consider imposing a punitive fine, even through the enactment of a special Coupang law or separate legislation."

There are criticisms that the report was delayed to reassure American investors. The CEO of Coupang, who appeared at the hearing, said that although reporting was not mandatory, he made it public because of great interest. Reporter Seung-hoon Choi examined whether this claim was true. This is Coupang's public disclosure report disclosed to the SEC of the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission at 6:13 am today (17th) our time. It was titled 'Significant Cybersecurity Incident' in the name of CEO Rogers. On the 18th of last month, up to 33 million customer names and phone numbers were reported. They were aware that personal information had been leaked, and wrote that Korean regulators were likely to impose financial penalties. CEO Rogers appeared at a hearing about four hours later and argued as follows. [Harold Rogers/CEO of Coupang: This type of information is not an incident requiring reporting under the U.S. Personal Information Act. So, we were not obligated to disclose it.] We said that we did not have an obligation, but we did so because we “considered that it is a situation that continues to attract attention.” Is that really true? If a U.S. listed company determines that a security incident is serious, it must report it to the SEC within 4 days in the form 8-K. The Coupang report released today says “significant” from the title, and the form was written in 8-K. Although it was a report submitted in accordance with the disclosure obligation, it is claimed that there was no obligation to disclose it. It is pointed out that the facts are inconsistent. [Son Dong-hoo/Attorney, New York, USA: Disclosure of serious cyber security incidents is (soon) mandatory. [They submitted the 8-K because it had a ‘significant impact.’] The report does not mention when Coupang judged this incident to be ‘significant.’ There are also suspicions that it is trying to avoid fines for delayed disclosure by arguing that it knew about the leak a month ago, but judged it to be significant only recently. Amid growing criticism, Deputy Prime Minister for Science and Technology Bae Kyung-hoon is discussing with the Fair Trade Commission the suspension of Coupang’s operations.

According to the legal community on the 18th, the Uijeongbu District Prosecutors' Office decided not to indict Mr. A, a man in his 40s who was sent on charges of fraud on the 10th of last month. Mr. A, the landlord, last month In February, he signed a lease contract with tenant B for a warehouse building located in Gyeonggi-do and received a deposit of 50 million won. However, after signing the contract, Mr. B sued Mr. A, saying that he did not intentionally inform him that the building was an unlicensed and illegal building and that the actual area was smaller than the contracted area when he signed the contract. Mr. A completely denied the charges, saying, “When I purchased the building in 2022, I was not aware of the illegality because I was told by the previous owner that it had been used without problems for decades.” In addition, they argued that they did not intentionally deceive Mr. B because the district office's notification of the violating building was only made after the contract was signed in July 2024. The prosecution, which examined the case, decided that it was difficult to view Mr. A's actions as fraud. The prosecution said, “Not only did the complainant visit the site in person and check the building in detail before signing the contract, but when he raised an objection immediately after signing the contract saying that the actual area was small, the suspect immediately ordered the use of the additional space free of charge without rent. “I took action,” he said. If Mr. A had intentionally defrauded, there was no reason to provide additional area free of charge. Regarding the charge of deception related to illegal buildings, the prosecution said, “Considering that the timing of the correction order from the competent city hall is consistent with the suspect’s claim and that the building in question has been used without any problems before, it is difficult to say that the suspect entered into a contract with knowledge of the illegality.” Kim Ji-hee, lawyer at Daeryun Law Firm, who represents Mr. A, said, “For fraud to be established, deception is required.” “The intent of the act and defrauding must be proven,” he explained. “The client faithfully fulfilled his obligations, including making repairs at his own expense, and was able to get rid of the unfair charges by proving with objective evidence that he was not aware of the illegal building at the time of signing the contract.” Reporter Kim Mi-ji unknown@kyeonggi.com[View full article] They stole 50 million won by renting an unlicensed building...

Interview with accountant Park Soo-jin “If shares are simply distributed equally or differentially, disputes over management rights and inheritance rights are frequent in the future generations. Therefore, it is essential to design a structure in advance to split business areas or separate domestic and international areas.” On the 17th, accountant Park Soo-jin of Daeryun Law Firm pointed out the core of family business succession as follows. Daeryun, which recently launched the Future Family Business Succession Center, is accelerating its support of inheritance and succession strategies for wealthy individuals and entrepreneurs. In addition, we plan to provide a solution to prevent double taxation in connection with the U.S. partner company ‘SJKP LLP’. Accountant Park, a key member of the center, is a veteran who has accumulated expertise in the domestic and overseas tax and finance fields by working for more than 17 years in overseas companies, including Samil Accounting Corporation and LG Chem Europe GmbH. Currently, Daeryun is in charge of family business inheritance, gifting, and tax saving strategies for corporate managers. Below is a Q&A with Accountant Park. -Why a detailed financial and tax diagnosis must be made before establishing a family business succession strategy. ▲The essence of family business succession is the transfer of shares. Many managers think of the family business succession inheritance deduction system to save taxes, but if they take over without recognizing hidden tax liabilities, the successor may suffer fatal blows such as a liquidity crisis due to massive taxation. Therefore, it is important to conduct a ‘health check’ to detect company-specific diseases. You may think of this as a simple choice. However, if you prioritize a thorough diagnosis, you will be able to not only discover structural risk factors but also explore business strengths and expansion opportunities for future generations. -If there is a specific strategy or know-how to optimize succession costs. ▲Listed companies are often relatively well prepared, but small unlisted companies are often unfamiliar with the valuation regulations under the Commercial Tax Act, such as the fact that sale price is applied first. Traditionally, the management of net asset value and net profit and loss value has been the key, but as courts are recently recognizing the Discounted Cash Flow (DCF) method, it is necessary to establish a tax minimization strategy by analyzing corporate types and precedents. We also recommend managing the size of small and medium-sized businesses. When a company grows beyond a certain size, tax benefits disappear and it suffers a premium assessment disadvantage. In this case, a strategic corporate restructuring scenario is essential. In the case of families with multiple children, it is recommended to allocate each specialized business area separately. - The mindset that managers must have for successful family business succession. ▲ It is common to allocate shares intensively to management successors. However, economic equity must be guaranteed both quantitatively and qualitatively to non-heir children. During the family business succession process, we often see cases where shares were distributed evenly or differentially. Nevertheless, the reason for seeking out a law firm in the end is because of the exercise of minority shareholders' rights and the intensification of management rights disputes between shareholders with equal shares. Based on this work experience, we recommend going beyond simply guaranteeing oil decentralization and designing a structure that makes it difficult for disputes to arise. To this end, it is important for managers to have an open mind to communicate two-way with family members before planning, rather than just unilaterally designate a successor. - Recently, as the number of wealthy people holding overseas assets has increased, interest in succession of overseas assets has also increased. If there are tax issues that they can easily miss. ▲For those with assets of a certain level, they turn to overseas due to fatigue from high rates of domestic taxation. However, even in this case, you may face unexpected tax burdens due to differences in tax law systems between countries. In particular, in the United States, assets around the world are included in the scope of taxation not only for citizens or permanent residents, but also for those with domicile status under tax law. In addition, there are frequent cases where advance gifts are made hastily without understanding the U.S. Step-up Basis (a system in which the acquisition price is readjusted to the market price upon inheritance), which actually increases the tax burden. Succession of overseas assets requires an integrated solution regarding the taxation and reporting systems of both countries, rather than a simple comparison of tax rates. -What field do you want to develop a specialized succession model in the future? ▲We plan to systematically strengthen the ‘cross-border inheritance and gift integrated solution’ that encompasses the assets held overseas by domestic asset owners. Tired of high rates of taxation, they are considering off-shoring, but due to insufficient review, they also go through the trial and error of reverse flipping (moving an overseas corporation back to Korea). Based on Daeryun's global network and information power, we will focus on minimizing clients' unnecessary cost waste and tax expenditures by supporting design and implementation from the beginning.

Afterwards, the police, who were transferred to the Seoul Metropolitan Government, began a full-fledged investigation into the case in which former CEO Park Dae-joon and Coupang Corporation were sued in relation to Coupang's large-scale customer information leak. According to News 1's coverage on the 17th, Seoul Songpa Police Station summoned lawyer Jang Ji-woon of Daeryun Law Firm on the 11th to represent Mr. A, who sued Coupang Co., Ltd., former CEO Park, and Coupang's certification agent and certification manager on charges of violation of the Personal Information Protection Act and professional breach of trust. The police investigated. It was found that on the same day, the police confirmed the allegations of personal information leakage and professional breach of trust that were stated in the complaint regarding Coupang's customer information leak incident against Attorney Jang. Previously, Daeryun said in the complaint, "As managers and managers in charge of personal information processing, they neglected their duty to take safety measures to prevent information leakage," and "The person in charge leaked personal information without returning the authentication key even after leaving the company." He continued, "The managers also did not retrieve the authentication key of the person who left the company or “They did not take any action, such as replacing the authentication key.” Meanwhile, Songpa Police Station transferred the case to the Seoul Metropolitan Police Agency after investigating the complainant.

District office, 'each disposition' according to violation, court says "Defendant's disposition standard is the administrative office's 'business handling rules'... disposal suitability and law must be followed" The court ruled that even if the fines are added up for multiple violations, the fine in lieu of business suspension cannot exceed the upper limit set by law. Last October, the 4-3 administrative division of the Seoul High Court filed a lawsuit against the head of Yeonsu-gu District Office in Incheon by waste disposal company A and others. The appellate court overturned the original judgment and ruled to cancel the fine imposed on the plaintiffs in the appeal of the case for cancellation of administrative disposition for violation of the Waste Management Act. Company A and others received a fine in lieu of business suspension equivalent to 6% of sales from Yeonsu-gu for violating three regulations under the Waste Management Act in 2023, including not attaching and not carrying waste collection/transportation permits. The fine for these companies' violations is 1% of sales. It was 2%, and the district made this decision based on the standard that 'when there is more than one violation, each is disposed of according to the violation.' However, Company A and others were dissatisfied with the result and filed an administrative lawsuit. However, the court of first instance dismissed the plaintiff's claim, saying that there was no problem in the process of calculating the amount of the fine. Accordingly, Company A and others stipulated that the fine in lieu of business suspension in accordance with Article 28, Paragraph 1 of the Waste Management Act should not exceed 5% of sales. An appeal was filed, claiming that the fines could only be levied on the line. The court of the second trial ruled in favor of the plaintiff. The appellate court said, “The regulations presented by the defendant as standards for disposal are nothing more than rules for handling affairs within the administrative office. Since they do not have the effect of binding the public or the court, the appropriateness of disposal must follow the provisions of the Waste Management Act.” At the same time, “Same as the method calculated by the defendant, the sales amount is calculated by calculating fines for each violation and then simply adding them up.” “A fine exceeding 5% cannot be imposed,” he said, adding, “However, since the court cannot directly set the fine, we have no choice but to cancel the entire fine.” Attorney Shin Jong-soo of Daeryun Law Firm, who represented the plaintiff in the appeal, said, “According to the Waste Management Act, the fine in lieu of one month of business suspension is 2% of sales, 3 months is 3%, and 6 months is 3%. “It is 5%,” he said. “If there are multiple violations equivalent to 1 month and a fine is imposed by simply adding them up, an unreasonable result will occur where the fine is imposed in an amount that replaces 3 or 6 months of business suspension.”[View full article] “Laws take precedence over internal regulations”... fines for waste disposal companies, appeals ‘cancelled’ (link) 2026-05-13T15:18:13.799Z https://www.daeryunlaw.com/en/broadcast/5946 A man in his 20s, who was sentenced to prison in the first trial for sexually assaulting a drunken acquaintance, was acquitted in the appeal trial. According to the legal community on the 16th, the Chuncheon 1st Criminal Division of the Seoul High Court overturned the first trial ruling and declared him not guilty in the appeal trial of Mr. A, a man in his 20s who was put on trial on charges of quasi-rape in October. Mr. A got drunk while drinking together at the house of Mr. B, an acquaintance, in 2021. He was indicted on charges of following Mr. B into the room and sexually assaulting him, and was sentenced to 2 years and 6 months in prison in the first trial. Mr. A denied the charges, saying he had never had sexual relations with Mr. B. In addition, it was argued that Mr. B's statement was different at each stage of the investigation and was unreliable given that he described the damage in such detail that it was difficult to say that he was drunk. However, the first trial judged that Mr. B's statement was so specific and natural that he could not say it without directly experiencing it, and determined that there had been sexual intercourse between the two. Although some loss of memory may occur over time, the core part is that the credibility can be recognized by consistently stating the facts. The appellate court's judgment was different. The court said that Mr. B's statements regarding sexual relations were consistent and detailed, so it was difficult to reject them, but that it could not be concluded that he was in a drunken state of mind or body or was incapable of resisting. Although the amount of alcohol consumed at the time exceeded the usual amount of alcohol, it was not enough to cause loss of consciousness as it was consumed slowly over several hours, and the victim of sexual assault was described in detail by Mr. A, including how he took off his clothes and his words and actions. When Mr. B was questioned by his boyfriend about his relationship with Mr. A, he sued Mr. A, and the court ruled that it is difficult to rule out the possibility that Mr. B gave a defensive response and exaggerated the situation somewhat, or that he expressed feelings of victimization under the influence of his boyfriend. I saw it. Lee Ji-yeon, an attorney at the Daeryun Law Firm who represented Mr. A at the appellate trial, said, "If the victim's statement serves as evidence of guilt because there is no direct evidence to admit the facts of the indictment, there must be no reasonable doubt about the contents. We emphasized that the credibility of the statement is low based on the fact that the statement was changed at each stage of the trial, whether Mr. B was too drunk to resist at the time."

Lawmakers from the ruling and opposition parties propose amendments such as 'strengthening representative responsibility' and announcing follow-up measures... Democratic Party "Prepares fundamental measures" Ahead of the National Assembly Science, Technology, Information and Communication Committee (Over-Defense) hearing on the 17th regarding the large-scale personal information leak, a 'half-length' hearing is expected as the three key members of Coupang submitted written reasons for non-attendance. According to political circles and industry sources on the 15th, the previous day, Kim Beom-seok Inc. The Chairman, Kang Han-seung, head of North American business development, and former CEO Dae-joon Park submitted a written statement explaining their absence from the hearing. Previously, at a plenary meeting on the 9th, the Committee decided to hold a hearing on the Coupang infringement incident at 10 a.m. on the 17th, and adopted six people as witnesses, including Chairman Kim, former CEO Park, General Manager Kang, Coupang CISO Brat Metis, Coupang Vice President of External Cooperation Min Byeong-gi, and Coupang Vice President of National Assembly and Government Affairs Cho Yong-woo. However, As the three people expressed their intention to not appear, the National Assembly announced that it plans to take legal action and other related decisions on the day of the hearing. A political official said, "As both ruling and opposition party lawmakers believe that the reason for non-appearance is inappropriate, a decision is expected to be made as the hearing progresses." He added, "Under the current law, mandatory attendance cannot be requested, so it will proceed as scheduled, focusing on witnesses such as Coupang's CISO." According to the National Assembly Testimony Appraisal Act, a request for witness attendance at a hearing can be made regardless of nationality or residence. Yes (Article 5). Failure to appear without a justifiable reason is subject to criminal punishment (Article 12), and the National Assembly may report the party who failed to appear to the investigative agency (Article 15). However, an accompanying order (Article 6) may be issued to the party to force attendance, but the accompanying order is limited to the National Assembly inspection. In fact, this hearing will be reduced to the attendance of Harold Rogers, Chief Administrative Officer and General Counsel of Coupang Inc., the 'Interim Representative for the 7th Day', and Brat Metis, Coupang CISO. Of course, Chairman Kim and others can express their intention to attend by resolving the reason for non-attendance. A statement of reasons for a witness's non-appearance must be submitted at least 3 days prior to the hearing, but there is no deadline for the intent to appear. However, according to the National Assembly, there has never been a case like this so far. Ji-woon Jang, a lawyer at Daeryun Law Firm, said, "It is unclear whether a proper investigation can be conducted against foreigners living abroad even if criminal charges are filed for non-appearance," and added, "We have no choice but to expect Chairman Kim himself to appear voluntarily depending on public opinion pressure or political judgment." Pressure on 'offensive crimes' is also expected. According to the National Assembly Bill Information System, People Power Party lawmaker Lee Man-hee and others proposed a bill to partially amend the Personal Information Protection Act, which stipulates that the current law (Article 64), which stipulates the standard for imposing fines for personal information leaks as 'less than 3/100 of total sales', should be raised to 6/100 of sales compared to major countries such as the United States. Park Beom-gye Representatives of the Democratic Party of Korea and others also proposed expanding the scope of group lawsuits (Article 51) and introducing fines for repetitive and serious personal information infringement incidents that allow for fines to be imposed within the range of 10% of total sales (newly established in Article 64-2 (2)). People Power Party lawmaker Kim Sang-hoon also proposed an amendment aimed at clarifying the responsibilities of representatives and strengthening the role of the personal information protection manager (Article 31). It was proposed. In a statement on the 14th, the National Assembly members including Choi Min-hee, Kim Hyun, Kim Woo-young, Noh Jong-myeon, Lee Joo-hee, Lee Jeong-heon, Lee Hoon-ki, Jeong Dong-young, Jo In-cheol, Han Min-soo, and Hwang Jeong-ah said, "The 'reason for the failure of the three Coupang witnesses' to appear cannot be condoned as an act of deceiving the Korean people," adding, "Chairman Kim 'resides overseas', former CEO Kang 'is not in a responsible position', and former Park The representative cited 'health reasons' and criticized it as "arrogance that ignores the people and an act that cuts off trust with the people." He added, "We will immediately push for legislation to prevent recurrence, such as strengthening governance responsibility, reinforcing attendance obligations, and establishing a response system for those responsible for staying abroad." Park Soo-hyun, chief spokesperson for the Democratic Party of Korea, met with reporters after the Supreme Committee meeting on this day and said, "We hope that the actual founder will make a responsible statement to the public, but we stand with the people for the fact that they have been avoiding it for over 10 years." “The party is also angry,” he said. “However, I understand that there is no means of coercion within the current National Assembly system, and the party will do its best to address the damage caused by the Coupang issue and to fundamentally address the issues.” Reporter Kim Myeong-shin (lila@news1.kr), Reporter Cho So-young (cho11757@news1.kr)[View full article] Coupang's 'half' hearing missing the key...

In other words, even if there is no explicit agreement, the exchange of sensitive information can be considered collusion if it is judged to have restricted market competition as a result. In fact, the Fair Trade Commission has strengthened the tendency to view information sharing between competitors as implicit communication, that is, as strong evidence of collusion, through the 'Unfair Collaborative Conduct Review Guidelines'. In particular, Article 44, Paragraph 2 of the Enforcement Decree of the Fair Trade Act specifies the information subject to sanctions as the cost of products, shipment volume, inventory volume, sales volume, transaction conditions, or payment conditions of price or consideration. Therefore, even in meeting minutes, emails, messenger conversations, and even private conversations, if the above sensitive information is exchanged, there is ample room for it to be interpreted as a signal of price cooperation. The problem is that this risk can occur even if no actual collusion was planned or executed. This is because, from the perspective of practitioners, the line between sharing information and expressing intent to collude can feel ambiguous. In particular, companies with denser industry networks or more complex distribution and marketing structures have more external contact points, and there are many cases where unintentional words and actions become a problem in exchanges with partners or competitors. If an investigation by the Fair Trade Commission is initiated, the company will be burdened with the burden of proof to actively prove that there was no collusion. Therefore, the company must establish a three-stage compliance strategy of 'prevention-inspection-response' to minimize the risk of information exchange. First, in the preventive stage, internal guidelines must be elaborated. Prohibited information stipulated by the Enforcement Decree of the Fair Trade Act must be specified and employees must be educated that sharing it with competitors can be considered collusion. In particular, when attending an association meeting or meeting, it is safe to specify the scope of permitted speech in advance. Next, at the inspection stage, a system for managing records must be established. It is important to recognize that materials such as reports and competitor trend analysis documents may be subject to investigation in the event of a dispute, and strict preparation and storage standards must be followed. Communication records with the outside world must also be managed transparently to prevent unintentional information exchange. If you are at the stage of being investigated for suspicion of collusion, you must quickly prepare an initial response logic. The key is to prove that the information exchange at issue was not intended to restrict competition and was unrelated to price or production decisions. Due to the nature of collusion in information exchange, interpretation is more important than objective documents or data, so if data or statements that can support 'there was no intention to agree' are not organized in the beginning, suspicion can become confirmed. A corporate crisis can start not only from the failure of a grand strategy, but also from a seemingly trivial loophole in information management. Now that fair trade regulations are becoming more sophisticated and standards for judging the illegality of information exchange are becoming stricter, it is a time when a 'verbal risk management strategy' that is as detailed and strict as a management strategy is required.

'Landlord's fault vs. lessee's fault' The court said, "The protection period for recovery of key money does not apply... Circumstances of unauthorized subletting by tenants" Even if a commercial lease contract was terminated midway, if there was no clear agreement on the end point, the court ruled that the protection period for recovery of key money should be based on the end date of the first contract. Last October, the Jeju District Court dismissed the plaintiff's claim in a rental deposit lawsuit filed by self-employed person A against building owner B. Person A last October In 2022, he signed a commercial lease contract with Mr. B for a three-year contract period, but due to personal circumstances, he requested cancellation a few months after signing. Mr. B complied, and the two parties reached an agreement on the premise of terminating the contract. Afterwards, Mr. A found a new tenant, signed a key money contract, and even coordinated the schedule for signing the lease agreement between Mr. B and the new tenant. However, a problem arose when Mr. B changed his existing position and refused to sign the lease contract. Mr. B said that he would use the commercial building himself. This is because he refused to sign a contract with the new tenant. Mr. A claimed that this hindered his opportunity to recover the deposit. In addition, he demanded payment of approximately 30 million won, claiming that Mr. B did not return part of the deposit without his consent. Mr. B refuted this. The notice was that the contract was terminated because Mr. A had sub-leased part of the store to a third party without permission. It was emphasized that the date of the key money contract signed by Mr. A did not fall within the key money recovery protection period under the Commercial Lease Act. The court ruled in Mr. B's favor. The court said, "It is difficult to say that there was a specific agreement on the end of the lease in the agreement process between the two sides," and "The key money recovery protection period is from six months before the end of the first contract until the end, so the defendant's sabotage “It does not fall within this period,” he said. He added, “It has been confirmed that the plaintiff ran a ‘Shop and Shop’ type advertisement with the intention of subletting part of the building. This is subletting without consent, and the defendant is not liable for damages under the Commercial Lease Act.” He added, “The rental deposit that was not returned by the defendant is justified because it deducted the cost of restoration to its original state.” Attorney Kim Dong-hwan of Daeryun Law Firm, who represented Mr. B, said, “Mr. “From the beginning, we had no intention of recognizing Mr. A’s right to sublease, so we had a ‘sublease prohibition clause’ at the time of the lease contract,” he explained. “Not only was it not a period during which protection for collection of key money was recognized under the Commercial Lease Act, but the fact of unauthorized sublease also constitutes a reason to exclude this obligation, so the claim related to key money itself was groundless. #Tenant #Rights #Claim dismissed.” Park Seok-ho (haitai2000@ikbc.co.kr)[View full article] Tenant claims "I was prevented from recovering the deposit"...

According to the legal community on the 11th, the Daegu District Prosecutors' Office decided not to indict Mr. A, a man in his 40s, who was transferred on charges of embezzlement under the Act on the Aggravated Punishment of Specific Economic Crimes. Mr. A was accused of embezzling 1.8 billion won while working as a co-CEO at a manufacturing company run by Mr. B, who is in his 40s, from 2014 to 2019. Mr. B claimed that Mr. A received a false tax invoice from a paper company without actually transacting goods, remitted the company money, and received it back into his personal account. In response, Mr. A claimed that although it was true that he had raised funds using false tax invoices, it was for the company to give rebates to major clients, and that it was all done under the instructions and approval of Mr. B. The prosecution found that the funds raised were actually delivered in cash to the person in charge of the client, and ruled that Mr. A was not guilty as there was no evidence of personal use. In addition, it was determined that Mr. A was not guilty as Mr. B received a notification message when transferring company funds and was aware of the flow of funds, such as directly managing the OTP. Attorney Shin Min-soo of Daeryun Law Firm, who represented Mr. A, said, “For a crime of embezzlement to be established, the intent to illegally obtain property by disposing of other people’s property as if it were one’s own must be proven. In this case, Mr. B sued Mr. A to protect his business interests by shifting responsibility for the rebate conflict that arose between business partners. “We were able to clear the charges by objectively proving that the funds raised by Mr. A were used for the company’s operating profits,” he explained.

According to the legal community on the 10th, the Anyang Branch of the Suwon District Prosecutors’ Office did not indict Teen A, who was sent on charges of defamation and insult last October. Last year, Mr. A was accused of describing instructor B as a “scammer” and posting a composite photo of Mr. B and politicians in a group chat room where fellow students gathered at the academy. Mr. A denied the charges. He refuted that he was dissatisfied with the content of Mr. B's lecture, so he expressed his thoughts about it. In addition, in the process of expressing this dissatisfaction, he posted a composite photo in the chat room, but emphasized that he had never used expressions that violated the honor of Mr. B, such as profanity. The prosecution decided not to indict Mr. A. The prosecution said, "It is difficult to say that the suspect's statement stated false facts because the contents of the complainant's class did not meet his expectations and that he subjectively evaluated this," and added, "The suspect's composite of the accuser's face in a specific photo was merely an attempt to express negative emotions in a somewhat humorous way, so it cannot be concluded that it was an insulting expression." Attorney Kim Young-joo of Daeryun Law Firm, who represented Mr. “It means a report or statement about the current facts,” he said. “We were able to obtain a non-indictment by emphasizing that there were no specific expressions in Mr. A’s remarks that could infringe on Mr. B’s social value or evaluation.” Reporter Seohyun Lee sunshine@kyeonggi.com[View full article] Teenager who defames lecturer, saying, “He looks like a fraud” Prosecutor’s Office ‘Non-indictment’ (Shortcut) 2026-05-07T04:31:50.627Z https://www.daeryunlaw.com/en/broadcast/5934 It was found that over 2,000 cases of consumer damage related to the marriage brokerage business have occurred in the past five years. According to the Korea Consumer Agency on the 10th, the total number of applications for damage relief related to the marriage brokerage business investigated by the Korea Consumer Agency from 2020 to August of this year is 2,038. By year, the number of applications increased by about 50% in five years from 276 in 2020 to 416 in 2024. The number of marriages has decreased by nearly 40% in 10 years, but the number of members joining the marriage information company (Jeongjeongsa) is increasing, and the related damage is also increasing. Attorney Lee Eun-sol of the Daeryun Law Firm said, "According to the law, Jeongjeongsa has an obligation not to provide false information to users, and if damage is caused intentionally or through negligence, it must also be liable for civil compensation." However, if the court determines that a reasonable verification process has been followed, it may be difficult to hold responsible, so thorough verification is required from the contract stage. “It is necessary,” he emphasized. The following is the main content of the interview with this lawyer regarding legal action in case of damage related to marriage brokerage. -The types of marriage brokerage fraud that mainly occur. ▲There are three main problems. First, there is marital history fraud. This is the case when people hide the fact of divorce or even sign up as unmarried while having a legal spouse. This is the most basic verification obligation under the standard terms and conditions. In some cases, not only one's own occupation or property but also family relationships, such as the occupation and property of parents, are falsely disclosed. Likewise, there are often cases of concealing medical history that may have a significant impact on debt status or marriage, such as rehabilitation or bankruptcy proceedings. However, it is also true that there are limits to verification because the company does not have the authority to inquire about criminal records or sensitive medical histories, etc. - To what extent does a marriage information company have a legal obligation to verify member information? ▲The 'Act on the Management of Marriage Brokerage Businesses' (hereinafter referred to as the Marriage Brokerage Act) states that marriage brokers 'must not provide false information' to users. As a result, this means that the company has an obligation to verify information. According to the ‘Marriage Information Business Standard Terms and Conditions’ first enacted in 2001, it is stipulated to confirm the marital status of the member and confirm the veracity of personal information that requires verification between the parties, such as education, occupation, and medical history. In other words, the company must use good managers to verify the authenticity of key information that can be objectively determined through documents such as graduation certificates, employment certificates, and withholding tax receipts submitted by members. A duty of care is borne. -What punishment will be imposed if a decision maker provides false information in violation of the law? Is punishment possible even in cases of negligence? ▲According to Article 26 of the Marriage Brokerage Act, a person who provides false information to a user may be subject to ‘imprisonment of up to 5 years or a fine of up to 50 million won.’ However, for criminal punishment, intentionality must be proven, but in practice, in most cases, negligence such as negligence in verification is an issue rather than in cases where a company intentionally provides false information. In this case, Article 14 of the same law stipulates that 'if damage is caused to a user intentionally or through negligence, the company is responsible for compensating for the damage.' To this end, marriage brokers are required to sign up for warranty insurance. - Companies try to avoid liability based on disclaimers such as 'there was no problem on paper' or 'information may be different' in the contract. Can I still receive compensation in this case? ▲You should check the disclaimer clause in the contract. Provisions such as ‘the relevant information may differ from reality’ may be invalid. This is because provisions that are unfairly disadvantageous to customers, contrary to the principle of good faith, or that exclude liability due to the business's intent or gross negligence, are prohibited. If such an exemption clause is invalid, the essential liability of the business remains. Article 14 of the Marriage Brokerage Act and the default provisions of the Civil Code require a business to be liable for compensation if damage is caused by its negligence. If you receive a suspicious document and neglect additional verification, this is a violation of the ‘duty of care as a good manager’ and clear negligence, so you can claim civil damages. - The key strategy for a fraud victim to win a lawsuit against the matchmaking company as well as the individual member who was defrauded is: ▲ To win against the company, you must prove the company’s intention or negligence. The main issue is proving that the company knew the facts were false or neglected information that could have been known if they had been a little careful. For example, if the company promotes the member as an excellent member or guarantees that verification has been completed, this is strong evidence that strengthens the company's responsibility. In addition, the key to winning or losing a lawsuit is proving through consultation recordings, emails, text messages, etc. that the member neglected to verify the original documents submitted or ignored obvious suspicious circumstances and pushed ahead with the brokerage.

A parent who was sued for defamation after posting an article criticizing the operation of a daycare center on an Internet Mom Cafe was cleared by the prosecution. The Eastern Branch of the Busan District Prosecutors' Office decided not to indict Mr. A, who was transferred on charges of violating the Information and Communications Network Act (defamation) last October. Last April, Mr. posted an article related to childcare center subsidies on the Mom Cafe bulletin board. At the time, the article contained content pointing out the opaque support and subsidy practices of the daycare center management committee. It is known that Mr. A used expressions such as “gaslighting” and “being ripped off” in his writing. Accordingly, Mr. B, the director of the daycare center, sued Mr. A for defamation. In the case of the subsidy, parents voluntarily raised funds, and there was no request for subsidy from the daycare center. At the same time, Mr. B claimed, “When Mr. A did not receive the video of the daycare event, he was vindictive and posted false information.” On the other hand, Mr. A denied the charges. Mr. A countered, saying, “I worked as a member of the steering committee for a year and personally experienced that Mr. B was putting psychological pressure on parents by complaining about financial difficulties.” He added, “The purpose of the article in question was to prevent damage to other parents and to urge improvement in the management method.” The prosecution decided not to indict Mr. A. The prosecution explained, “The overall content of the article posted by the suspect appears to represent a subjective value judgment about the unfairness he experienced while serving as a member of the steering committee for about a year, and it is difficult to view this as a disclosure of specific facts required for defamation.” In addition, he explained, “Like the contents of the suspect's restroom, we have taken into account the fact that the public interest cannot be denied.” Attorney Kim Sang-gu of Daeryun Law Firm, who represented Mr. A, said, “Under the Information and Communications Network Act, defamation is not established simply by using critical expressions, but the purpose of slandering a person must be recognized.” He added, “Since the client's main motive was for the public interest of securing transparency in the operation of a daycare center, there were some private motives on the side. “Even if it was included, we were able to obtain a good result by legally demonstrating that the purpose of defamation could not be recognized,” he said.

Daeryun Law Firm, which represented the lawsuit, announced that the number of participants in the lawsuit has already exceeded 1,000, and that any member who has ordered at least once from Coupang can participate in the lawsuit. Attorney Dong-hoo Son from SJKP, Daeryun's local U.S. subsidiary, said on CBS Radio's 'Kim Hyun-jung's News Show' on the 10th, "Regarding this personal information leak, we are filing a lawsuit against Coupang Inc, the parent company of Coupang's Korean corporation, in New York, USA. “We are filing a consumer class action lawsuit in the Southern District Court,” he said. “Coupang Inc. is a corporation located in the U.S. state of Delaware, a company listed on the New York Stock Exchange and Nasdaq, and a company that owns 100% of Coupang Korea’s shares.” In response to the host's question, 'Can only people with American nationality participate in the lawsuit?', he responded, "The victim's residence is not important. Those in Korea and those in foreign countries other than Korea can participate in the lawsuit in the U.S. Federal Court if they have suffered damages." Regarding the size of the compensation amount, he said, "It is difficult to tell you the amount itself," but explained, "I will tell you that the compensation amount is much more realistic than in Korea." Kim Kook-il, CEO of Daeryun Management, said in an interview with MBC Radio on the same day, "As of yesterday's press conference, (the number of people participating in the lawsuit) was about 200, but it has already exceeded 1,000." CEO Kim said, "Any member who has ordered at least once from Coupang can participate in this lawsuit. In the United States, there is an 'opt-out' system, so even if you were not a plaintiff in this lawsuit, you will receive compensation according to the judgment unless you give up your rights. However, there will be a difference in the amount of compensation for those who directly participated as a plaintiff and those who were not plaintiffs." Regarding the reason for pursuing a compensation lawsuit in the United States rather than Korea, he said, "Compensation in Korea only proves what kind of damage there is and compensates for the damage. Compensation in the United States has the meaning of punishment. When damage is caused by anti-social corporate activities, not only compensation for the damage, but also retaliatory compensation for the negligence that created the damage. It is meant as a deterrent to prevent such things from happening in the future." He continued, "What I want in this lawsuit is “This is because we can secure emails exchanged between Coupang’s U.S. headquarters and Coupang’s Korean headquarters, meeting materials, and decisions made by the board of directors,” he said. “This content will be more reliable and more extensive than what will be revealed through the investigation in Korea.

I used to SKT When the information was leaked, it was divided into two fields: civil and criminal, but at that time, civil was the main field and criminal was only a small part.. However, at Coupang this time, I divided the civil and criminal categories, and contrary to what I expected, almost half of the people applied for the criminal category as well.. ☏ host > Then the detective work is carried out in Korea.? ☏ Kim Kuk-il > yes, yes. ☏ host > So, can any Coupang member participate in this litigation group?? ☏ Kim Kuk-il > yes, yes. Anyone who has ordered at least one item from Coupang can participate.. ☏ host > However, in the United States, there is a class action system, so even if you are not included in the group of litigants, if a judgment is made, isn't there a system where the judgment is applied equally?, Does this have anything to do with this this time?? ☏ Kim Kuk-il > Unless you waive a right you do not wish to have by opting out, you will receive compensation according to the judgment even if you were not the plaintiff.. ☏ host > Even in this lawsuit.? ☏ Kim Kuk-il > yes, yes.

All you have to do is prove what kind of damage there is and compensate for that damage.. ☏ host > That's right. ☏ Kim Kuk-il > However, punitive damages in the United States ‘punishment’There is a meaning. When damages are caused by intentionally, illegally, and anti-social corporate activities, not only compensation for the damages, but also compensation in the form of punitive retribution is required for the intentional or serious negligence that caused the damages.. At the same time, compensation is also added as a deterrent to prevent something like this from happening again in the future.. So we cannot predict how much compensation will be awarded in class actions..

I expect that the contents will be more reliable than those revealed by investigative agencies through investigations in Korea, and that a large amount of unexpected contents will be revealed.. ☏ host > You mentioned it briefly a while ago, but the data you want to secure through Discovery is mainly data that can prove, for example, that the US headquarters was aware of lax security or how they responded after personal information was leaked., Would you say that the focus is on this aspect?? ☏ Kim Kuk-il > yes, yes. To give a simple example, although it is not completely confirmed, Chinese security agents, When the employee in charge of the authentication left the company, he took the authentication key with him and used it to steal member information over a long period of time.? Such lax security management, Is it true that headquarters didn’t know about information management?? I just did what I've always done about it., what investment, I believe that such matters, such as investing or making changes to a security level that meets global standards, were discussed within the board of directors and Coupang headquarters.. If it wasn't discussed at all, it means ignoring security.. ☏ host > If you compare it to a public service society, it would be considered dereliction of duty., then? ☏ Kim Kuk-il > yes, yes. Most of the members are citizens 5If there are 10 million people 3500It can be said that there are 10,000 members, but there are really only a few thousand people who are managed., If it has been managed with a security system that manages tens of thousands of people, can't it be seen as a system that deserves social criticism?? Coupang headquarters was also informed that an internal employee was stealing data knowing this, but they did not take action quickly., Also, the number of people was reduced further., Or, even though they knew that reporting would be reduced, they announced it to the outside world only with a small number of people., announced, We also want to secure whether there are any emails or other materials that convey this kind of information.. ☏ host > Considering the possibility that the data may have been destroyed or concealed, is this also possible to track and confirm?? ☏ Kim Kuk-il > yes. There is a technology that can restore it without deleting it all from the computer data anyway., And if you conceal or destroy such materials, you will be subject to appropriate punishment such as obstruction of justice.. ☏ host > Then, if you file a lawsuit, the Discovery you mentioned, Is it possible to trigger this right away and request submission of data right away?? ☏ Kim Kuk-il > However, Class Action is a, Even in Korea, where class actions were created due to these limitations, class actions are still only available individually and have not been officially introduced.?

This is a very, very special case and it is recognized as a multi-victim lawsuit, so the first thing that is accepted by the court is that it is recognized as a class action.. Since all the victims are in Korea, it only happens in Korea, so the U.S. courts have no jurisdiction over this., Even if you ask, we can't accept it., This is how the U.S. court can rule again. ☏ host > How much of a possibility do you think it is?? ☏ Kim Kuk-il > I think the odds depend on us continuing to collect victims.. ☏ host > Do you think it depends on the number of victims?, Do you think it depends on the size of the litigation team?? ☏ Kim Kuk-il > I hope that multinational victims come forward along with the scale.. ☏ host > In countries other than Korea? ☏ Kim Kuk-il > yes. In particular, aren’t there also Koreans in the U.S.?? There are quite a few people like this who are also members of Coupang in Korea.. When these people file a lawsuit together with Korean citizens, even in the U.S. court, this is not just a Korean problem.. ☏ host > That's right. ☏ Kim Kuk-il > Just looking at the manuscript makes it difficult to reject it.. This is important to us and that is why we held a press conference yesterday.. many people, In particular, we hope that many people in the United States will participate.. I held this press conference to appeal that.. ☏ host > That's the key in the end.. If you look at it that way. ☏ Kim Kuk-il > yes it is. If you pass that gate, we will start a lawsuit in court and present evidence for both sides., Please provide proof, Of course, Coupang headquarters will only issue what is advantageous to them, right?? Then, we apply for discovery and the court says, “Please check everything.” This is how the process goes. ☏ Host > This lawsuit is being filed primarily by consumers and members, but isn't it possible for shareholders or investors to file lawsuits as well? ☏ Kim Kuk-il > That’s right. In this case alone, I think an investor lawsuit is possible because reporting, reporting, and notification were delayed, and there were violations of disclosure obligations, but since Coupang member users and consumers suffered the most damage, we are trying to focus here first. ☏ Host > Then, when do you expect to file a complaint? ☏ Kim Kook-il > Since so many people have responded positively, we are discussing internally whether we should actually go a little faster than expected. Originally, I was planning to file it somehow within the year, but I'm expecting that it might happen sooner. ☏ Host > You can't just cut a radish with a knife, so you initially thought that the standard was around 1,000 people? ☏ Kim Kuk-il > Yes, that’s right. ☏ Host > But the number of people exceeded 1,000 overnight. ☏ Kook-il Kim > Yes, that’s right. ☏ Host > Then, you can file a complaint right away. ☏ Kim Kook-il > Today, while I was having a morning meeting, I was in New York, and when I was meeting with American lawyers, my first estimate was that SKT, which we are still working on, would have about 1,000 people, but it fell short of that. Nevertheless, we proceeded because we had a deadline, and in the case of Coupang, of course, we expected SKT and set it at 1,000 people, but it surpassed the number in one day, so you can see how the people are so angry about Coupang that they cannot resolve it. So, at this morning's meeting, we just said, let's just take 10,000 people. ☏ Host > Okay. Lastly, I would like to ask this question. It is about the speed of litigation. If the Korean government's investigation results are officially announced and fines are imposed on them, will the speed of litigation in the United States speed up, and what will happen? ☏ Kim Kuk-il > That’s right. Wasn't the reason we filed a civil and criminal complaint, especially a search and seizure in the criminal case? ☏ Host > That’s right. ☏ Kim Kook-il > If the process of the leak through the search and seizure, who leaked it, how this friend leaked it, what preparations were made at the company level for it, and whether the company knew about it even after it was leaked and then covered it up again, if these things come out through the investigation, wouldn't there not be a lot of information to check even if we apply for discovery? ☏ Host > That’s right. That's right. ☏ Kim Kuk-il > Rather, the reason for proceeding with both Korea and the United States is that there is an advantage in being able to use the data obtained from one side for the other side. ☏ Host > Yes, I understand. I think we should listen to today's words up to this point. There are probably many people who are watching the litigation progress. Thank you. Representative. ☏ Kook-il Kim > Yes, thank you. ☏ Host > We were with Kim Kuk-il, CEO of Daeryun Law Firm.[View full article] [Focus] Coupang class action lawsuit, "Concealment of headquarters data is not possible...

Daeryun Law Firm is leading the litigation. "Information leakage itself is also a problem., Management's failure to make judgments during the post-action response process is also an important litigation issue and responsibility will be pursued until the end."said.Daeryun’s U.S. subsidiary 'SJKP LLP'Is 8Day(local time) One World Trade Center, Manhattan, New York, USA(1WTC) my SJKP At a press conference held at the office, Coupang's U.S. headquarters 'Coupang I&C(Inc.)'The legal basis for the lawsuit for damages against was explained as follows..Daeryun’s side "If you delegate the Korean lawsuit, the U.S. lawsuit will automatically proceed in parallel."While, US courts (plaintiff's) than nationality 'Who gave the cause?'considers important.

There are realistic limits to the ability of Korean investigative agencies to search and seize internal materials of the U.S. headquarters, so if a U.S. lawsuit proceeds, the headquarters' board of directors meeting minutes will be used through the evidence discovery process., Security Investment Decision History, Secret internal data, such as reporting systems, can be forcibly disclosed, which is a key part of litigation. 'smoking gun'emphasized that this could be.Next are Kim Kuk-il, CEO of Daeryun Management, and New York Attorney Son Dong-hoo., Tal Hirshberg(Tal Hirshberg) This is a Q&A conducted with New York State attorneys and others..―When a victim who applies for a Korean lawsuit files a U.S. lawsuit simultaneously, Are there any separate costs?.▶does not occur. If you delegate the Korean lawsuit, the U.S. lawsuit will automatically proceed in parallel., There is no separate deposit or additional cost for this.. The same applies to U.S. citizens who must pursue U.S. lawsuits alone.. a U.S. citizen SJKP Apply through the law firm website or, Even if you only file for a U.S. lawsuit through the Korean law firm Daeryun website, the cost is completely free.. This lawsuit is the first case filed in New York led by a Korean law firm., We plan to proceed systematically, step by step, without burdening the victims..―The amount of damages in Korea is small.(30only10010,000 won)It's just. US punitive damages(Punitive Damages) The expected size of the claim is.▶The amount awarded by Korean courts is far too low compared to the pain suffered by victims.. On the other hand, the United States has a structure in which not only those who file lawsuits but also all victims who prove damage can receive compensation., Its scale is incomparably larger than that of Korea.. In particular, punitive damages go beyond simple compensation. "You shouldn't run a business like this."has the meaning of sounding an alarm. If the court recognizes Coupang’s malice or gross negligence, An astronomical compensation ruling could result..―The actual damage from information leak occurred in Korea.. Is it possible to file a lawsuit against a U.S. corporation?.▶It's quite possible. Shares of Coupang Corporation 100%The parent company that owns is a Delaware corporation in the United States. 'Coupang(Coupang Inc.)'am. Server Management, personnel system, The entity that oversees internal control, etc. is the head office.. Even if the damage occurred in Korea, We will hold the Delaware parent company directly accountable for the fact that the headquarters management who designed and managed the security system is avoiding responsibility without taking appropriate measures..―The specific legal basis for this class action lawsuit is.▶There are two key points. first, Insufficient data monitoring and internal control systems. second, After the incident occurred, there was no recognition or recovery action from the headquarters level.. Information leakage itself is also a problem., Management judgment during follow-up response process(Business judgment & fiduciary duty) Failure is also an important litigation issue.. We will pursue responsibility for this until the end..―There also seem to be securities law issues, such as violation of disclosure obligations., The reason for filing a consumer lawsuit first rather than an investor lawsuit is.▶It's a strategic choice. Delaware courts have traditionally been very pro-business.(corporate-friendly)The threshold for shareholder lawsuits is high due to the propensity for. So we have users in New York, etc.(consumer) First, file a lawsuit focusing on the damage and secure jurisdiction., Small intestine correction(Amendment)We will adopt a strategy to expand the scope to include shareholder damage through.―What is the situation for victims in the U.S. and abroad?.▶Coupang’s parent company is a British e-commerce company. 'farfetch(Farfetch)' acquired user data in North America and Europe., in korea R.LUXIt is doing business under the name. It is very likely that their information was also leaked during the system linking process.. We are currently securing victims in North America and Europe., We plan to report the global damages, including these, in the complaint..―How are Korean criminal charges and U.S. civil lawsuits connected?.▶Korean lawsuits are judged to focus on information leaks that occurred in Korea and damage to domestic consumers., U.S. litigation is the responsibility of the higher-level U.S. headquarters for management and supervision., In other words, it has the nature of questioning the failure of governance at the global level.. Coupang's ultimate decision-making body is the U.S. headquarters., Considering that the board of directors and management have exercised key authority over security and risk investments, reviewing legal liability in the United States is essential.. In addition, there are a significant number of US citizens, permanent residents, and users residing in the US., Separate procedures for recovering damages in the United States are also necessary.. As a result, the perspectives and legal principles of the lawsuits in the two countries are different., have a complementary relationship with each other.―Do Korean consumers have to file a Korean lawsuit in order to participate in a U.S. lawsuit?.▶American courts are more important than nationality. 'Who gave the cause?'considers important. Therefore, Korean residents are naturally eligible to be plaintiffs.. but, It is strategically advantageous to secure specific damage proof materials through Korean litigation, so it is strongly recommended to carry out litigation in both countries simultaneously.. Proceeding exclusively with U.S. lawsuits is limited to special cases, such as U.S. citizens..―What is the benefit of filing a lawsuit in both Korea and the United States when the victim is the same?.▶The biggest reason is that the U.S. 'discovery(Discovery·discovery)' Because of the system. There are realistic limits to the ability of Korean investigative agencies to search and seize internal data from the U.S. headquarters.. However, if the U.S. lawsuit proceeds, the headquarters' board of directors meeting minutes will be obtained through the discovery process., Security Investment Decision History, Confidential internal data, such as reporting systems, can be forcibly disclosed.. This is the core of this lawsuit 'smoking gun'this will be. ―When is the time to file a complaint?.▶Plaintiff, the legal minimum requirement to file a lawsuit 40Recruitment has already been achieved (today 200Secure more than 100 people). You can submit it as soon as tomorrow, but, The timing is being adjusted for strategic reasons.. first, Only by gathering victims not only in Korea but all over the world and increasing the scale can we truly persuade the U.S. courts.. second, This is because of litigation strategy security.. The specific date is being kept private to prevent other law firms from excessively intervening or imitating the strategy and causing confusion to victims.. but, The goal is within the year(12during the month) There is no change in submission.―The total size of the lawsuit 7billion dollars(approximately 1trillion won)Even if I say that, all victims 3000Divide by 10,000 people 1per person 2only3It's only about 10,000 won. Is actual damage recovery possible?.▶not so. Settlement of U.S. class action lawsuit(Settlement)are not all victims, Plaintiff who participated in the actual lawsuit(Class members)It is common to calculate and distribute. Therefore, the amount received by those who did not participate in the lawsuit is different from those who did.. past AT&T At the time of similar information leakage incidents such as 1per person 60I remember receiving compensation of about 10,000 won.. Of course, in this case, Since the amount of damage or number of plaintiffs has not yet been confirmed, it is currently difficult to say in detail the expected amount of compensation., It is expected that the amount of compensation will be higher than the typical amount of compensation that can be received in Korean lawsuits..―Has it been confirmed that the US headquarters has access to the Korean server?.▶Delaware corporation through in-house research(head office)We have identified the circumstances under which this Korean system is being managed.. However, conclusive physical evidence for this(server logs, etc.)In order to secure court discovery(Discovery) Procedure is necessary. This is why we file lawsuits. Only when a lawsuit is initiated can internal data be secured to prove the head office's management responsibility through legal enforcement..―What is the key basis for determining that U.S. courts have jurisdiction?.▶of the incident 'transnational(Multinational)' It's because of personality. Headquarters in the United States(delaware), Platform services in Korea, And the security development company is China(shanghai)It is located in. Since this is a 'borderless' data breach case in which the perpetrator, victim, and management system span multiple countries, it is appropriate for the U.S. federal court, rather than a specific regional court, to deal with it comprehensively. -What are the specific charges (Cause of Action) that will be specified in the complaint? ▶There are three major types: △Data Breach, △Violation of Consumer Protection Act, and △Violation of Security Duty. Although there are issues of violation of shareholders' disclosure obligations (Securities Act), we plan to apply consumer-related charges first to focus on protecting victims, and will adopt a strategy of adding or merging charges (multi-district litigation) during future litigation proceedings.

SEOUL, Dec. 8 (UPI) -- South Korean top online retailer Coupang is facing a crisis after a data breach exposed information from 33.7 million customer accounts, or more than 63% of the country's population of 51.7 million. Coupang acknowledged late last month that names, email addresses, phone numbers and delivery addresses were leaked, although it claimed that payment information and credit-card data were not compromised. The fallout has been swift, with clients showing signs of abandoning the popular e-commerce platform and potential victims filing lawsuits at home and abroad. According to data from local analytics firm IGAWorks on Monday, the number of daily active users of Coupang declined more than 10% in the last week, dropping to 16.18 million Friday from 17.99 million Dec. 1. The company also faces growing legal risks as more lawsuits emerge. Seoul-based law firm Chung already filed suit in a Seoul court early this month on behalf of 14 Coupang users. It seeks $136 in compensation per plaintiff. "This kind of lawsuit takes quite a lot of time. Hence, we started the process early on. The number of participants may increase in the future," Chung lawyer Kwak Joon-ho said in a media interview. Another law firm, Daeryun, said it plans to pursue a class action against Coupang in the United States. The global head office of Coupang is Seattle, and the company is listed on the New York Stock Exchange. "Our U.S. affiliate SJKP will lead the lawsuit against Coupang. As the U.S. law permits a class action, we will seek punitive damages with the aim of raising corporate awareness," Daeryun lawyer Jason Jang told UPI. The Seoul administration is expected to impose heavy sanctions on Coupang, according to President Lee Jae Myung, who said that during a Cabinet meeting earlier this month. "We are required to identify the cause of the incident as soon as possible and hold those responsible strictly accountable," Lee said. "I urge the relevant ministries to take effective and practical measures, such as strengthening fines." Lee raised the possibility of punitive damages. The state-run Personal Information Protection Commission is likely to levy substantial fines. Under South Korean law, financial penalties can reach up to 3% of a company's related revenue.As Coupang reported sales of $2.8 billion last year, potential fines could top $800 million for a record amount since launch of the commission in 2020. The previous high fine was less than $100 million. South Korea vulnerable to hacking accidents Coupang's massive data breach adds to a string of recent security failures involving major South Korean corporations, including leading mobile carrier SK Telecom. Earlier this year, SK Telecom admitted that a cyberattack compromised sensitive data on its network, compromising critical information of up to 24 million subscribers. As a result, the firm was fined $92 by the commission and was required stop adding clients for nearly two months, in line with the government guidelines. Last month, the nation's No. 1 crypto exchange, Upbit, experienced a breach in which virtual assets worth $30 million were transferred from its hot wallets to unauthorized external wallets. AhnLab, a leading cybersecurity company, noted that the country remains an appealing target for hackers. "The concentration of cyberattacks on South Korea can be attributed to its high dependence on IT, the high value of its digital assets and its relatively low level of investment in information security compared to the global average," AhnLab Director Yang Ha-young told UPI. Sogang University economics Professor Yoon Suk-bin voiced similar concerns. "Korea has digitalized most sensitive personal information, and the data is owned by a small number of large corporations. Hackers can strike a jackpot by targeting them," Yoon said in a phone interview. "Worse, our companies tend to cut their security budgets when incidents do not occur," he added. "As platforms grow larger, they should crank up investment in security infrastructure, but in reality, they move in the opposite direction."

It is predicted that if Coupang's gross negligence is acknowledged in the United States, where punitive damages are active, the amount of compensation could reach trillions. 2021 In the T-Mobile hacking incident in which 76 million people's personal information was leaked, each person was compensated up to 32 million won.

A class action lawsuit is expected to be filed in the United States and the punitive damages system will also be used..."

(Shortcut) 2026-05-07T08:46:59.129Z https://www.daeryunlaw.com/en/broadcast/5927 Victims of personal information leaks are also pursuing a class action lawsuit against Coupang's headquarters in the United States. A law firm is taking the lead in gathering victims, and if the U.S. court recognizes punitive damages, Coupang will have to pay a huge amount of compensation. Today (9th), Correspondent Lee Han-seok reports from Washington for the first news. The U.S. branch of a Korean law firm has decided to file a class action lawsuit in a U.S. court against Coupang Inc., the U.S. headquarters of Coupang. Coupang I&C is a company in which founder and chairman Kim Beom-seok holds 74% of the voting rights. It owns all of the shares of Coupang's Korean subsidiary. Separate from the lawsuit filed in Korea, this is a lawsuit for damages against the US headquarters. The law firm explained that the US is a fundamentally differentiated lawsuit that deals with governance failures and violations of disclosure obligations of listed companies. [Kook-il Kim / CEO of Daeryun Law Firm: If the US headquarters has actual access to the system data of the Korean subsidiary, the US court can force the submission of relevant materials regardless of where the server is located.] The role of Coupang's headquarters is not limited to civil litigation in Korea. He explained that it is difficult to find out, and that the issue of the trial will be what role the headquarters played in the relationship between the U.S. headquarters and the Korean subsidiary. Based on past precedents, he said he will seek punitive damages against companies with gross negligence and hold Coupang accountable for violating its governance and risk management obligations. In the United States, if the company's gross negligence is proven, the amount of compensation can grow to an astronomical level. A class action lawsuit was filed after the personal information of about 76 million customers was leaked, and 350 million dollars and 510 billion Korean won were spent in settlement money for consumers. The law firm said that about 200 people who participated in the Korean lawsuit so far also participated in the U.S. lawsuit, and that they will file a lawsuit in court within this year as soon as more litigants are added.

A law firm is taking the lead in gathering victims, and if the U.S. court recognizes punitive damages, Coupang will have to pay a huge amount of compensation. Today (9th), Correspondent Lee Han-seok reports from Washington for the first news. The U.S. branch of a Korean law firm has decided to file a class action lawsuit in a U.S. court against Coupang Inc., the U.S. headquarters of Coupang. Coupang I&C is a company in which founder and chairman Kim Beom-seok holds 74% of the voting rights. It owns all of the shares of Coupang's Korean subsidiary. Separate from the lawsuit filed in Korea, this is a lawsuit for damages against the US headquarters. The law firm explained that the US is a fundamentally differentiated lawsuit that deals with governance failures and violations of disclosure obligations of listed companies. [Kook-il Kim / CEO of Daeryun Law Firm: If the US headquarters has actual access to the system data of the Korean subsidiary, the US court can force the submission of relevant materials regardless of where the server is located.] The role of Coupang's headquarters is not limited to civil litigation in Korea. He explained that it is difficult to find out, and that the issue of the trial will be what role the headquarters played in the relationship between the U.S. headquarters and the Korean subsidiary. Based on past precedents, he said he will seek punitive damages against companies with gross negligence and hold Coupang accountable for violating its governance and risk management obligations. In the United States, if the company's gross negligence is proven, the amount of compensation can grow to an astronomical level. A class action lawsuit was filed after the personal information of about 76 million customers was leaked, and 350 million dollars and 510 billion Korean won were spent in settlement money for consumers. The law firm said that about 200 people who participated in the Korean lawsuit so far also participated in the U.S. lawsuit, and that they will file a lawsuit in court within this year as soon as more litigants are added.

Press conference scheduled in New York on the 8th. While user lawsuits are in full swing in Korea against Coupang, which suffered a large-scale personal information leak of over 30 million cases, a class action lawsuit is being pursued in the United States against Coupang's headquarters in the United States. American law firm SJKP, a local subsidiary of Korean law firm Daeryun, will hold a press conference in Manhattan, New York on the 8th (local time) and announce plans to file a suit for punitive damages against Coupang in a U.S. court. The plan was announced on the 7th. An official from Daeryun Law Firm said in a phone call with Yonhap News, "We will pursue lawsuits in Korea and the United States simultaneously. We have already recruited some plaintiffs in relation to punitive damages to be filed in U.S. courts, and we will recruit more plaintiffs through a press conference." Coupang previously announced on the 29th of last month that information on about 33.7 million customer accounts had been leaked, saying that personal information such as names, emails, phone numbers, addresses, and some order information were leaked. 100% of the shares of Coupang's Korean corporation are owned by its parent company, Coupang Inc., which is listed in the U.S., and more than 70% of the voting rights of Coupang's parent company are held by founder Kim Beom-seok, chairman of the board of directors of Coupang Inc. Chairman Kim was born in Seoul, but acquired American citizenship while living in the United States with his father, an expatriate at a large company, as a child. After graduating from Harvard University, he founded Coupang in 2010. Started a business.

Scheduled to be filed at Songpa Station in Seoul "Intentional lack of writing is enough... Expect thorough investigation of the truth and punishment of those responsible" Daeryun Law Firm is taking legal action against Coupang and its CEO in connection with Coupang's large-scale personal information leak on the 5th. Daeryun plans to file a complaint with the Songpa Police Station in Seoul at 2 p.m. on the same day against Coupang CEO Park Dae-jun and managers and managers in charge of in-house personal information certification work on charges of violating the Personal Information Protection Act and breach of duty. In his complaint, Daeryun stated, "As managers and managers in charge of processing personal information, they neglected their obligations to take safety measures to prevent information leakage. The person in charge leaked personal information without returning the authentication key even after leaving the company." He also stated, "The managers also did not take any action, such as not collecting the authentication key of the person who left the company or replacing the existing authentication key." He pointed out, "Managers, including CEO Park, neglected unauthorized access to the server by former employees in order to reduce the cost of replacing authentication keys and gain the convenience of continuing to use existing authentication keys." He continued, "It is judged that there was an internal intention to tolerate it even though they were fully aware of the risk of information leakage, such as giving up on prompt response even when they recognized the leak." In addition, "Coupang claimed that unauthorized access occurred on November 6, but was made aware of it on the 18th." He argued, "If the connection was made, an abnormal access signal would have been immediately sent to Coupang, but it is difficult to understand that they were not aware of this." He also emphasized, "An investigation into the internal reports made at the time and the instructions of the decision-maker is necessary." Regarding the charge of breach of trust, Daeryun said, "Not only are Coupang users suffering damage such as invasion of privacy, but Coupang Co., Ltd. has also suffered significant property damage, such as increased security measure costs and the possibility of fines being imposed." “It satisfies the requirement of ‘incurring property damage due to violation of duties,’” he explained. Gye-Jun Son, head of Daeryun’s corporate legal group, said, “Customers believed that Coupang would safely protect their personal information with the latest technology, but in reality, Coupang betrayed their trust by not even managing basic authentication keys.” He added, “We hope that this complaint will lead to a thorough investigation of the truth and punishment of those responsible.” A class action lawsuit is also being considered. Unlike Korea, the plan is to obtain actual damage relief through the U.S. courts, which have a punitive damages system.

Review begins Dae-Ryun “If the U.S. lawsuit begins in earnest, we plan to respond in conjunction with domestic litigation” [Sports Seoul | [Reporter Kim Jong-cheol] Amid ongoing controversy surrounding Coupang's personal information leak, SJKP, a local U.S. corporation established by Daeryun Law Firm, announced that it is considering filing a lawsuit against Coupang's headquarters. According to an official from SJKP, SJKP has currently formed a response task force (TF) centered on U.S. lawyers affiliated with the corporation and has begun procedures to file a class action lawsuit against Coupang Inc., located in Delaware, U.S. The local class action lawsuit is an investment in the United States. Attorneys Kyle Courtnall and Tal Hirshberg will participate, led by Son Dong-hoo, an attorney from the U.S. (New York State) who has extensive advisory experience related to corporate legal affairs. Attorney Kyle is a former Virginia state prosecutor who is licensed to practice law in Washington D.C. and Virginia, and has performed work related to the financial sector at Morgan Stanley and other companies. Attorney Tal is a New York attorney and has litigation experience representing many federal cases in the U.S. Southern District Court and Eastern District Court. SJKP is examining from various angles whether domestic victims, along with U.S. victims, can be included as plaintiffs in the class action lawsuit. Dong-hoo Son, a lawyer in New York, said, “Coupang Korea is directly responsible for the personal information leak that occurred in Korea, but the parent company, Coupang Inc., cannot be completely free from that responsibility either.” He added, “It appears that it will be possible to file a lawsuit in the U.S. court as it is considered damage resulting from a data leak.” Meanwhile, Daeryun, a law firm that launched SJKP in New York, USA, announced on the 2nd that it is recruiting victims to participate in a collective damages lawsuit in Korea, and has announced that it is recruiting victims to participate in a collective damages lawsuit in Korea on the 2nd.

In fact, it is no exaggeration to say that the personal information of the majority of Korea's economically active population was leaked. The recent large-scale personal information leak at Coupang caused a huge shock to our society. What's even more shocking is that Coupang was completely unaware of the leak until five months had passed. This incident was not an accidental accident due to technical limitations. This is the result of our companies completely ignoring the lessons they should have learned from the SKT personal information leak that occurred just a few months ago, and it is a predicted human disaster caused by complacency and thinking, “No way.” It is perhaps a natural result that the government and relevant authorities took this incident as an opportunity to discuss strengthening fines and making a punitive damages system a reality. Why do tragedies like this repeat themselves? The fundamental cause is that companies do not recognize investments related to personal information security as an ‘essential requirement.’ Under the current domestic legal system, even if an information leak occurs, the fines or damages that a company must pay do not reach the level that would cause a fatal blow to the company's management. To put it bluntly, the incorrect calculation that it is economically more profitable to hire a law firm to defend and pay fines after an accident than to incur the astronomical cost of building a security system is widespread in business circles. In order to eliminate this moral hazard, the introduction of a punitive damages system is necessary. This is also a key issue that Daeryun Law Firm emphasized while proceeding with the SKT lawsuit. Unless this system, which has the effect of both punishment and prevention of recurrence by holding companies that have committed malicious or gross negligence responsible for a large amount of compensation beyond compensation for the actual cost of damages, is established, a second SKT and a third Coupang incident will occur again at any time. The need to introduce punitive damages becomes clearer when looking at the progress of the SKT class action lawsuit currently in progress in Daeryun. Currently, SKT is avoiding adjustment due to 'financial burden' and is showing an attitude of prolonging the matter. If a strong punitive damages system had already been introduced in Korea, would it have been possible to implement a delay strategy? If the compensation amount had snowballed as the lawsuit dragged on, they would have started providing quick relief for the damage a long time ago. However, they cannot just wait until the system is improved. Even at this moment, leaked personal information can be misused for crimes, and victims' anxiety is growing. Daeryun represents the victims in the ongoing SKT-related lawsuit as well as the Coupang incident and will not back down until the end. In particular, Daeryun officially requested SJKP, a local corporation recently established in New York, to review the possibility of filing a class action lawsuit against Coupang's headquarters in the United States. Coupang's parent company is Coupang Inc, which is listed on the New York Stock Exchange. The United States is a country with a strong punitive damages system, and if this situation can be handled in a U.S. court, an astronomical amount of compensation liability that cannot be compared to that in Korea could be acknowledged. The court should not sit back and forth in the Coupang-related disputes that will follow along with the SKT lawsuit, but make a quick and strict ruling. Investigative agencies must also uncover the circumstances surrounding the leak and the suspicion of concealment through a thorough investigation without any suspicion. Daeryun will fight until the end together with the people who suffered damage at the front of the road. That is the calling we must fulfill as lawyers and as a national law firm.[View full article] [Contribution] The Coupang leak and the introduction of punitive damages, why it can no longer be postponed (Shortcut) 2026-05-13T14:21:17.769Z https://www.daeryunlaw.com/en/broadcast/5916 Recently, six major national universities, including Seoul National University, rejected 45 applicants with a history of school violence in the 2025 school year entrance exam. Past school violence measures have begun to act as a real disadvantage that determines whether or not a student will be accepted into college. As all universities will be required to reflect school violence records starting from the 2026 school year, it is clear that the entrance exam threshold for students who have committed school violence will be higher. As the measures of the School Violence Committee become a shackle for entrance exams, parents are willing to take legal action. Even if it is a minor issue, a lawyer is appointed to actively fight to avoid the fatal outcome of having to write in the student records. As a result, the number of administrative appeals and administrative lawsuits challenging the decisions of the School Violence Committee is rapidly increasing every year. In fact, the number of administrative appeals filed against the School Violence Commission nearly doubled in two years, from 1,295 in 2021 to 2,223 in 2023. So what are the legal issues that parents of school violence perpetrators and victims should be aware of? First, we need to look at how school violence is defined. Article 2, Paragraph 1 of the ‘School Violence Prevention and Countermeasures Act’ defines school violence very broadly as “injury, assault, confinement, intimidation, kidnapping, enticement, defamation, insults, blackmail, coercion and compulsory errands, sexual violence, bullying, cyber bullying, obscene and violent information using information and communication networks, etc.” This shows that the law opens the scope of what constitutes school violence much wider than expected, and that various types of acts can be problematic even if they are not accompanied by direct physical force. Once a report of school violence is received, the school investigates the case and forwards the case to the School Violence Committee under the Office of Education. Expert members belonging to the School Violence Committee deliberate on the severity of the case and the degree of reflection of the parties and decide on measures from No. 1 to No. 9. This stage of deliberation by the Academic Violence Committee can be said to be the first legal hurdle. Therefore, a smoother response is possible if you receive assistance from a lawyer at this stage. In general, the goal of assistance from a lawyer is not only to lower the level of action, but also to secure a legal basis for winning in future administrative trials or administrative lawsuits. In other words, before taking legal action, it is necessary to review factual errors and procedural defects from the academic violence committee stage and design a defense strategy to cancel the disposition itself. Of course, there are other considerations as well. Many parents often misunderstand that in accordance with Article 17-2 (Delete of Records of Measures) of the School Violence Prevention Act, related records will be deleted upon graduation. However, the measures to be deleted immediately after graduation correspond to relatively minor matters (No. 1 to No. 3). In some cases, deletion requirements must be met, such as the student's degree of remorse and reconciliation with the victim. What is more important to keep in mind is the timing. If an issue arises while a high school senior, the unfairness of the action may be contested through administrative litigation or the college application may be closed before the requirements for record deletion have been reviewed. In fact, there is a gap in rights relief where the opportunity to take legal remedy is fundamentally excluded. For this reason, there has been an increasing number of cases in recent years where a provisional injunction to suspend execution is filed separately from the main lawsuit immediately after the school violence committee measures are taken. This is a legal response method to temporarily suspend student record entries until the effectiveness of the measure is confirmed, thereby preventing immediate disadvantage in entrance exams, etc. However, in some cases, this procedure leads to long-term litigation, and limitations in operating the system are pointed out, such as psychological burden or secondary damage to the victim. Attorney Soo-yeon Son of the Daeryun Law Firm said, "In this way, the school violence committee has gone beyond a simple disciplinary body within the school and has become a de facto 'first-trial court for entrance exams' that determines the career and future of students. The offending student relies on legal means such as suspension of execution to minimize disadvantage, and the victim student demands a just recovery. “But the longer the legal battle goes on, the deeper the wounds become,” he said. “The only way to end the problem of school violence is for schools and society to responsibly provide a space for reconciliation and help students return to the learning community, not from a ruling.”[View full article] The School Violence Committee became the ‘first trial’ of college entrance exams... The true solution lies outside the court (Shortcut) 2026-05-14T01:42:52.594Z https://www.daeryunlaw.com/en/broadcast/5913 Daeryun Law Firm announces its intention to participate in the lawsuit and forms a task force with lawyers specializing in personal information and IT. Daeryun Law Firm, which filed a class action lawsuit regarding the SK Telecom SIM information leak incident, announced on the 2nd that it will also participate in the lawsuit related to the Coupang personal information leak. Coupang is understood to have had personal information such as names, email addresses, shipping addresses, and phone numbers leaked from approximately 33.7 million customer accounts. Coupang is being criticized for not recognizing that there was an attempt to steal personal information five months ago, and there are concerns about additional damage. On this day, Daeryun plans to form a dedicated task force (TF) centered on professional lawyers specializing in personal information protection and IT and begin full-scale response. If necessary, experts from the Digital Forensics Center will be assigned to the task force to secure and analyze various technical evidence, including victims' device access records. In particular, Daeryun is also reviewing whether Coupang's U.S. headquarters is responsible. This is because the level of fines and sanctions that can be applied can be completely different depending on the results. Daeryun said, “Depending on whether the U.S. headquarters is the actual controller of information processing, a much more rigorous accountability procedure is possible based on not only domestic law but also international standards.” Daeryun CEO Kim Kook-il said, “As a law firm with expertise in large-scale information leaks, we will strictly hold companies accountable for their legal and ethical responsibilities.” Daeryun previously said in May. In the case of the SKT SIM information leak, we are also taking legal action by filing a class action lawsuit and suing security managers, including SKT CEO Yoo Young-sang, on charges of breach of trust and obstruction of business. Based on this experience, we plan to apply professional evidence analysis capabilities and a large-scale victim response system to protect victims in this Coupang class action lawsuit.

A man in his 40s, who was suspected of hitting a pedestrian with a vehicle and running away, was decided not to be sent. In October, the Seoul Jungnang Police Station dismissed Mr. A, who was suspected of causing death by fleeing under the Aggravated Punishment Act for Specific Crimes, as 'not guilty'. Mr. A was charged with hitting pedestrian B on the elbow with the side mirror while driving a vehicle on a road in Jungnang-gu, Seoul last April and then running away without providing additional relief. Initially, it was reported that Mr. A admitted to the charges during the police investigation. Accordingly, the police handed Mr. A over to the prosecution without detention. However, during the subsequent stage of the prosecution investigation, Mr. A denied the charge of causing death while running away. It was claimed that the time of the accident was at night and the tinting on the car window was dark, so he was not aware that the accident had occurred and that he had passed the victim when driving straight ahead. At the same time, after the accident, Mr. B did not ask Mr. A to handle the accident or chase Mr. A's vehicle. It was emphasized that circumstances such as the fact that Mr. B complained of great pain and that he was not injured enough to immediately go to the hospital also support Mr. A's claim. Regarding the circumstances in which he admitted to the charges during the police investigation, Mr. A said, "During the first investigation, he stated that he had no knowledge of the accident and had no reason to run away, but during the second investigation, he was told by the police that 'you only need to pay a small fine' and 'you can be arrested even without fear of destroying evidence or escaping'. At this, he felt strong fear and made a false statement. The prosecution, which took over the case, ordered a supplementary investigation, and the police ruled that Mr. “It cannot be considered as causing a functional disability, so it cannot be recognized as a minor injury in violation of the Act on Aggravated Punishment for Specific Crimes,” he added. Attorney Kim Yu-jin of Daeryun Law Firm, who acted as legal representative for Mr. A, said, “Mr. A was investigated by the police several times without a lawyer, but he made a false statement because he wanted to conclude the case quickly without interfering with his main job.” He explained, "I decided to reveal the truth with the help of a lawyer." Attorney Kim said, "We were able to get the result of non-transportation by emphasizing that there was only a slight contact between the vehicle's side mirror and the victim's elbow at the time, that the victim only received conservative treatment due to the accident and did not even want insurance, and that Mr. Park Seok-ho (haitai2000@ikbc.co.kr)[View full article] ‘Tap’ of elbow with side mirror… Man sent on suspicion of runaway fatal shooting → Reason for non-transported (go to link) 2026-05-13T06:36:55.234Z https://www.daeryunlaw.com/en/broadcast/5911 A man in his 40s who was accused of converting voice phishing damage into coins and sending them to a withdrawal account was cleared of charges. According to the legal community on the 1st, the Daejeon District Prosecutors' Office decided not to indict Mr. A, a man in his 40s who was sent last September on charges of the Special Act on Prevention of Damage from Telecommunications and Financial Fraud and Refund of Damages. Mr. A received a transfer of 26 million won from the victim in December of last year. He was accused of swindling the profits by exchanging them for coins and sending them to an electronic wallet designated by a voice phishing remittance agent. Mr. A completely denied the charges. He said he thought it was a part-time job as a coin purchasing agent that earns commissions using market differences between domestic and foreign virtual currency exchanges. At the same time, Mr. A explained, “I only recognized it as a normal arbitrage transaction, but I had no awareness of being involved in voice phishing crime.” Mr. A also said, “At the time, I felt uncomfortable after working once, so I went to the police station and received counseling, and tried to quit working.” He added, “However, the company suddenly deposited an additional 20 million won into the account, saying it was an employee’s mistake, and I tried to return it, but the matter escalated due to the limit.” The prosecution emphasized that Mr. A had committed a crime. It was determined that there was no intent to participate. The prosecution said, “At the time, Mr. A tried to return the money that had been incorrectly deposited, but was unable to return it due to the daily transfer limit of only 700,000 won.” He added, “At the company’s continued urging, it was confirmed that Mr. A transferred 1 won each to the victim’s account four times and left a note asking, ‘Are you an agent for purchasing coins?’” He continued, “At the time, the person whose name was unknown responded to the suspect by impersonating the victim’s husband and asking him to act as an agent for the purchase.” He added, “It appears that the suspect who was deceived has moved on to coin trading.” Attorney Kim Hyun-soo of Daeryun Law Firm, who represented Mr. A, explained, “Pretending to be recruiting part-time workers to purchase virtual currency is one of the new voice phishing methods,” adding, “We were able to obtain a good result by faithfully explaining that there were no circumstances for the suspect to avoid the incident, such as inquiring about the case with the police, and that he had no intention of participating in collusion or aiding and abetting.” Reporter Kwon Byeong-seok (bsk730@fnnews.com)[View full article] Why was a man in his 40s not indicted on charges of participating in voice phishing?

MY Daeryun is an integrated legal platform that allows customers to use the legal services they need at once, including lawyer recommendation, consultation reservation, case progress management, and provision of customized legal content. After a pilot launch in early September, the features and interface were improved by reflecting user feedback before being officially released. With the introduction of this app service, existing communication channels that had been dispersed through text, email, and phone calls were integrated into one, allowing clients to check the progress of their cases more systematically. In particular, customers who requested a case to Daeryun can check the status of the case in real time through MY Daeryun and check related information, schedule, and results at a glance. Transmission of incident-related documents and inquiries to personnel can also be done safely and quickly through the app. Customer A, who is actually using it, said, “Before, when I was curious about the progress of a lawsuit, it was cumbersome to ask questions over the phone and submit documents, but with MY Daeryun, it is convenient because I can check the progress in real time and submit documents easily.” New customers can receive recommended lawyers and even apply for legal consultation within the app, so they can easily make a reservation for a consultation without complicated procedures. Daeryun automatically connects the customer with the most suitable lawyer by comprehensively analyzing the type, size, region, and progress stage of the case. By combining Daeryun's case data and AI technology, customers can quickly be matched with an expert without having to search for a lawyer themselves. Users can conveniently adjust the consultation schedule by selecting the desired time and office, and rapid response is possible based on the network of 36 offices nationwide. In addition, legal calculation services for each item such as child support, alimony, and inheritance are provided, along with practical cases by field, customized legal information, and various legal form materials. Daeryun is shortening the response time to customer inquiries through the establishment of this system. It is expected that manpower that was used for repetitive phone information or data requests can be redeployed more efficiently. In particular, most communications, from minor procedural inquiries to information on data submission deadlines, can be handled within the app, reducing the burden of duplicate response and simultaneously increasing the consistency and accuracy of customer response. Kim Kuk-il, CEO of Daeryun Law Firm, said, “MY Daeryun is a new communication channel based on trust with customers.” “It will be a foundation for strengthening,” he said. Meanwhile, the MY Daeryun app can be downloaded for free by searching for ‘MY Daeryun’ on the Google Play Store and Apple App Store.

This goes beyond simply conflict between unions, consumers, and workers, and is leading to legal and social issues being raised regarding the overall working hour calculation and management system of many companies where night work has become routine. In particular, the legal issue in the overwork debate lies in the 'calculation of actual working hours', which examines how working hours are actually composed, and this issue naturally leads to the question of whether time formally treated as rest constitutes actual work. In other words, the key question is whether the break time on paper is ‘hidden working time’ conducted under the direction and supervision of the employer. Ultimately, the core of the dispute lies in how to set the boundaries between working hours and rest times under the Labor Standards Act. Article 54 of the Labor Standards Act stipulates that a break of at least one hour must be granted during eight hours of work. This time must be freely available to workers, free from the employer's command and supervision. The Supreme Court also ruled that all time under the employer's command and supervision constitutes working hours (2014Da74254). For example, if workers are not guaranteed free use of 'waiting time' while waiting for immediate instructions at a specific location during delivery, it is very likely that this will be recognized as working time rather than rest time. The problem is that if these hours are recognized as actual working hours, the legal risk that companies must bear is significant. The first thing they will face is criminal punishment and wage issues for violating working hour restrictions. If formal rest time is recalculated as working hours, the company may be assessed as violating the 52-hour weekly limit (Article 50 of the Labor Standards Act), which may result in imprisonment of up to 2 years or a fine of up to 20 million won under Article 110 of the Labor Standards Act. Additionally, Article 56 of the Labor Standards Act stipulates that 50% of the ordinary wage for night work from 10 p.m. to 6 a.m. It is stipulated that wages should be paid in addition. Therefore, if it is revealed that some of the time treated as rest time was actually night work, the company must retroactively pay the missing night allowance, and may even incur the burden of late interest due to late payment. Failure to properly pay wages in this way constitutes a violation of the ‘principle of full wage payment’ under Article 43 of the Labor Standards Act, and there is also a risk of criminal punishment under Article 109 of the same Act. Legal responsibility does not stop at wage issues. Employers have a duty of safety consideration to protect the lives and bodies of workers under employment contracts and civil law, and this becomes the basis for civil liability for damages. In addition, Article 39 of the Occupational Safety and Health Act obliges employers to prepare health measures against harmful and risk factors, including night work. If overwork is allowed to accumulate due to non-guaranteed rest periods, this may be assessed as failure to fulfill safety and health obligations and may result in additional legal liability. This may ultimately lead to a major industrial accident. Article 2 of the Serious Accident Punishment Act defines a serious industrial accident when one or more deaths occur due to an occupational disease, and Article 4 imposes an obligation on management managers to establish a safety and health management system, including identifying and improving harmful and risk factors. If basic safety and health measures such as break time management are neglected despite being aware of the risks of high-intensity night work such as early morning delivery, this may be interpreted as a violation of the duties of the manager and may result in criminal liability. Therefore, in order to manage and control risks related to working hours, companies must establish a system that can objectively prove that actual break time has been guaranteed. Of course, it is true that there are practical difficulties in measuring and controlling drivers' rest times in minutes and seconds due to the nature of the delivery business, which involves frequent out-of-town work and irregular travel routes. However, in legal disputes, these practical difficulties are not grounds for exemption, and the responsibility to prove the reality of the break time lies entirely with the user. Beyond simply recording break times on pay stubs, there is a need to establish an objective record management plan that can show that workers were out of the employer's direction and supervision, such as records of entering and exiting rest areas, logging out of work systems, and deactivating delivery apps. In particular, in business models that are premised on night work, such as early morning delivery, we must clearly recognize and prepare for the fact that working hour disputes are no longer just a simple issue of non-payment of wages, but can escalate into a serious disaster risk that threatens the sustainability of the company.

Daeryun Future Family Business Succession Center is related to accelerating entry into a super-aging society, family business inheritance deductions, etc. It was designed to preemptively respond to rapidly changing internal and external environments, such as regulatory changes, diversification of wealth sources, and asset portfolio diversification. In particular, we plan to focus on minimizing inheritance and succession risks that can occur not only for wealthy individuals and entrepreneurs, but also for ordinary families, and to help with the stable transfer of wealth to the next generation. Daeryun Future Family Business Succession Center goes beyond simple legal advice and provides ▶ optimized will and trust design, ▶ governance structure reorganization according to family business succession, ▶ transfer strategy for special assets such as unlisted stocks and overseas assets, ▶ succession tax and gift tax saving plans, etc. It provides a ‘one-stop total solution’ throughout the entire process and supports succession strategies not only for domestic but also overseas assets such as the United States. The composition of core personnel has also been completed. Attorney Ho Gyu-chan (Judicial Research and Training Institute 36th class), who served as head of the legal team at various financial conglomerates, leads the first half. Attorney Ho is regarded as a practitioner who is well-versed in not only financial and management legal affairs, but also the design of complex trust structures such as testamentary trusts and family business succession trusts. The succession method through a trust goes beyond simple asset transfer and requires sophisticated strategies such as ▶ smooth succession of management rights through a living trust, ▶ simultaneous resolution of retention and livelihood security issues through the division of stock beneficial rights, and ▶ maintenance of family business permanence through a joint beneficiary structure of heirs. Attorney Gyu-chan Ho has practical experience in establishing various trust-based succession models. In addition, accountant Park Soo-jin, who has extensive experience in tax diagnosis and tax due diligence through his experience at Samil Accounting Corporation, tax accountant Gyu-cheol Lee, who worked as a tax official at the National Tax Service for 25 years and performed various tax work including corporate tax, income tax, and value-added tax, and tax accountant Joo-hee Lee, who has presented practical and result-oriented solutions through representation in tax appeal procedures such as pre-tax adequacy review. Daeryun Law Firm plans to join forces to establish a three-dimensional strategy. Daeryun Law Firm plans to present asset management solutions that transcend domestic and international borders based on its solidly established Manpower. In particular, the launch of the Future Family Business Succession Center is more meaningful in that it simultaneously meets global demand. On the 21st (local time), Daeryun held a seminar on ‘New York real estate investment and Korean-American asset succession and tax strategy’ for overseas Koreans through the US local corporation ‘SJKP LLP’. Based on this, it plans to expand its integrated advisory capabilities to encompass overseas real estate investment, cross-border inheritance and family business succession, and the needs of customers with overseas assets. In addition, in commemoration of the launch of the Future Family Business Succession Center, Daeryun plans to hold a private seminar for unions and associations with executives and employees and companies that have signed MOUs under the theme of ‘Inheritance and family business succession strategies for future generations.’ Through this, the purpose is to provide more in-depth guidance on the complex succession issues faced by entrepreneurs and owner families, and to strengthen expertise and reliability so that actual succession design and execution can be entrusted to Daeryun. Based on this, we plan to expand our integrated advisory capabilities to encompass overseas real estate investment, cross-border inheritance and family business succession, and the needs of clients with overseas assets, including those in the United States. Attorney Ho Gyu-chan of Daeryun Law Firm said, “Successful family business succession goes beyond simple transfer of wealth and “It is an important task that connects permanence and the family philosophy,” he said. “We will combine Daeryun’s professional human infrastructure and global know-how to provide customers with the optimal customized master plan.” Reporter Son Dong-wook, Lawleader twson@lawleader.co.kr Law Leader - Daeryun Law Firm launches Future Family Business Succession Center... “Proposed cross-border succession solution” (Go here) Sejeong Ilbo - Daeryun Law Firm launches Future Family Business Succession Center... “Establishing a cross-border succession solution” (Shortcut) Tax and Finance News - Daeryun Future Family Business Succession Center launched...

Daeryun has set the scope of its service to include cases where cases are accepted through false or exaggerated advertisements or courtesy advertisements, contact is lost or handled poorly, and cases where a fair refund is not paid after termination of the contract. It also includes cases where a similar all-officials-friendly advertisement was made to imply superiority by touting experience as an officer or executive of the Korean Bar Association or a local bar association. Daeryun provides free support for refund claims and compensation claims for those who have been harmed by bad law firms and lawyers. Daeryun also strengthens internal ethics and applies strict management standards to protect the rights and interests of customers. Even if it is not intentional negligence, if the lawyer in charge handles the case poorly or loses contact with the customer, we will thoroughly investigate and impose appropriate sanctions to prevent recurrence. Through this measure, Daeryun plans to strengthen the protection of legal consumer rights and interests and do its best to protect legal consumers. Victims of bad law firms can contact Daeryun at any time, and related inquiries can be made on the official website. Daeryun CEO Kim Kuk-il said, “Recently, the number of victims of bad law firms that deceive consumers has been increasing, and this is a serious problem that undermines trust in the entire profession of lawyers.” He added, “We actively sympathize with the public interest policies promoted by the executive branch such as the Korean Bar Association, and as a leading law firm, we will take the lead in relieving victims with a sense of responsibility.” Reporter Jeong Cheol-wook[View full article] Seoul Shinmun - Daeryun Law Firm provides free support to victims of ‘rogue law firms’ (link) Financial News - Daeryun Law Firm provides free relief to victims of defective law firms (Click here) Enet News - ‘Top 10 Law Firms’ Daeryun Law Firm Provides Free Relief to Victims of Bad Law Firms (Click here) Gyeonggi Ilbo - ‘Top 10 law firm’ Daeryun Law Firm provides free relief to victims of defective law firms (Click here) Kukje News - Daeryun Law Firm implements free relief service for victims of ‘rogue law firms’ (Go here) KBC Gwangju Broadcasting - ‘Top 10 law firm’ Daeryun Law Firm provides free relief to victims of defective law firms (Click here) 2026-05-10T05:27:12.564Z https://www.daeryunlaw.com/en/broadcast/5904 Universities, students, and professors are all confused by AI cheating... Accountability structure unclear Expert: “Standards, not prohibitions… We need to set boundaries between AI-based learning and cheating” Although generative AI-based cheating is rapidly increasing in college, the system and responsibility structure to regulate it are still vague. It is pointed out that the ‘gray area’ is growing in a structure where responsibility is not clearly attributed to universities, students, or professors. AI cheating in universities… 224 cases detected over 5 years Recently, in a non-face-to-face lecture at Yonsei University, some students committed group cheating using AI during the midterm exam. In an online exam with about 600 students, test takers had to submit a video showing the screen, hands, and face, but some students evaded control by manipulating the shooting angle or running multiple programs on the screen. At Seoul National University, cheating using ChatGPT was discovered and a reexamination was conducted, and at Korea University, group cheating was confirmed through a KakaoTalk open chat room. According to data received from the Ministry of Education by Kang Kyung-sook, a member of the Korea Innovation Party, there were 224 cases of cheating detected at 49 universities across the country over the past five years (2020 to November 17, 2025). There were 65 cases of sharing problems and answers, 48 ​​cases of using unauthorized data, 41 cases of traditional cheating, and 40 cases of using electronic devices, and there were 4 cases of ‘Chat GPT specified’. This includes only cases directly recognized by the university headquarters, so the actual scale is likely to be larger. Insufficient university response… Universities that are within the guidelines apply disciplinary measures such as F grades, ethics education, and community service to students who are caught, but the response system is inadequate. This is because although the use of AI has increased explosively, revision of school regulations and establishment of AI use standards have been slow. In a survey by the Korea Research Institute for Vocational Education and Training, 91.7% of college students (4-6 year universities) last year answered that they use AI for assignments and searches, but in a survey by the Korea Council for University Education, 71.1% of 131 universities nationwide did not even have AI-related guidelines. Even universities that have guidelines are assessed to have limitations in actual application as they are limited to declarative statements or comprehensive expressions. Universities are aware of these problems, but their attitude is that they have no choice but to remain at the level of guideline guidance for now. Yonsei University said, “The authority to evaluate classes lies with professors, so it is difficult to force or determine whether or not to use AI at the headquarters level,” and added, “We only provide evaluation standards and guidelines for AI use.” Seoul National University formed the ‘AI Ethics Guidelines Establishment TF’ in August of this year and is discussing establishing standards. The “exam and assignment verification system” needs to be redesigned. Some believe that this confusion is also related to the university’s structure and operation method. Although non-face-to-face lectures have increased rapidly since COVID-19, criticism is that the online evaluation system, including test management and ethics education, has not been sufficiently established, increasing the possibility of AI abuse. Experts emphasize that this incident should be used as a starting point for redesigning the evaluation system for the AI ​​era. Park Nam-ki, professor emeritus at Gwangju National University of Education, said, “The boundary between legitimate AI use and misconduct must be clear,” and added, “For AI-use tasks, an evaluation structure and procedure that proves the process, such as a written plan, step-by-step review, and supporting materials, is needed.” The legal community emphasized the urgency of legal and institutional response, saying, “AI use standards and procedures must be stipulated.” The legal community emphasized the urgency of legal and institutional response, saying that sanctions for the same behavior are conflicting due to different standards of responsibility and punishment levels for each university. “In a situation where AI has become routine, a response centered on prohibition is not effective,” said Yoo Jae-gyu, a lawyer in the Pacific AI team. “The scope of AI use permitted in exams must be clearly defined and provided with sufficient guidance in advance.” Attorney Jeong-hee Kang said, “We need to establish a system to evaluate the achievements in using AI.” Attorney Jeong-won Heo of Daeryun Law Firm said, “The key is whether the university clearly notified in advance whether or not to use AI and whether the student was intentional.” He suggested, “Disciplinary standards and procedures should be stipulated in the school regulations, and CBT-type testing equipment or internal network-based evaluation systems should also be reviewed.” In a situation where it is not even clear whether AI is a tool or a means of cheating in the educational field, the university community must set new standards. We are at a crossroads that needs to be prepared.

This seminar is an opportunity to share practical strategies for asset succession between Korea and the US and New York real estate investment. Daeryun Law Firm's CEO Park Dong-il, accountant Yoo Jeong-yeon, SJKP's U.S. (New York State) attorney Son Dong-hu, and Korini CEO Moon Tae-young attended and presented as presenters. CEO Park Dong-il introduced a one-stop global advisory structure encompassing law, tax, and immigration under the topic of 'Korea-US double taxation and asset succession strategy.' First, Representative Park said, "Korea taxes residents, and the U.S. taxes citizens, permanent residents, and tax residents on worldwide income. Since both countries have a structure that allows the same income to be taxed at the same time, the first step is to understand how the Korea-US tax treaty adjusts this." He continued, "The reporting obligation, tax rate, and scope of foreign tax credit application vary depending on how tax residency is determined under the tax treaty." “In cases where assets exist in both Korea and the US, tax planning is not a matter of reactive response but a matter of proactive structural design, and it is essential to establish a reasonable tax-saving strategy and succession structure based on this,” he added. Attorney Dong-hoo Son of the United States (New York State) explained the characteristics of the inheritance system and the importance of advance planning on the topic of “asset succession practice and inheritance structure design in the U.S.” Attorney Son said, “The ‘Living Trust’, in which assets are designed in advance in the form of a trust during one’s lifetime, is used for U.S. assets. “It is a key tool for succession,” he said. “It is an especially effective method for customers with complex asset structures as it reduces disputes between family members and allows design for purposes such as personal information protection and inheritance tax adjustment.” In addition, Attorney Son noted that financial transactions and business operations may be halted if a “decision-making system during life,” such as property management power of attorney and medical decision-making documents, is not in place, adding, “Asset succession in the United States is not a single document, but when trust, will, tax, and legal representation rights are designed together.” “It is finally complete,” he emphasized. Corini CEO Taeyoung Moon introduced the latest indicators and investment flows of the New York real estate market and shared on-site insights. CEO Moon said, “As of the third quarter of this year, the total transaction volume of New York residential real estate was approximately KRW 9.2 trillion (approximately $6.56 billion), with a transaction volume of 3,281, the average sale price was approximately KRW 2.8 billion (approximately $2M), and the median price was approximately KRW 1.6 billion (approximately $1.6 billion). “It is continuing its upward trend compared to the previous year, recording $1.2M.” He added, "The office market, which had shrunk after COVID-19, is also showing the most positive trend since 2019 due to employment recovery and re-investment of global tech companies." He added, "Investing in U.S. real estate is not a simple purchase, but a process that connects finance, law, and tax." Korini supports finding local properties, designing investment structures, and connecting financial institutions. At the contract review and tax and inheritance structure design stages, we collaborate with SJKP LLP to support safe transactions. “With this seminar, SJKP and Korini plan to establish a collaboration model that covers all stages of real estate investment in the U.S. and provide a unified support system to investors.

Cases where incorrect claims due to simple practical errors or mistakes lead to recovery of tens of millions of won to hundreds of millions of won, and if repeated, escalate into business suspension or criminal investigation are steadily occurring. In particular, recently, as EMR logs, CCTV videos, billing patterns, and AI-based anomaly detection technology have been used for crackdowns, the hospital's daily recording and billing process has become exposed during the investigation process. 2. Characteristics and enforcement system of recovery of nursing care benefits The most important feature of recovery of nursing care benefits is that they are recovered regardless of whether it was intentional or not. In clinics, missing records are common during busy outpatient treatment, and at the hospital level, as records are shared among multiple doctors, nurses, and therapists, the timing and content are likely to differ. In nursing hospitals, it is easy for management to accumulate as the standards for nursing grade and staffing vary from day to day. Due to these structural characteristics, cases of claiming non-covered items as benefits, recording post-emergency EMR routines, overcharging compared to the implementation of physical therapy and manual therapy, and non-compliance with hospitalization fee standards are common in all institutions regardless of size. The same enforcement procedures apply. The Health Insurance Review and Assessment Service analyzes EMR logs, revision time, input person, and CCTV, focusing on whether medical records and claims match. The National Health Insurance Corporation determines refunds based on several years' worth of claims, and the Ministry of Health and Welfare imposes business suspensions or fines. If the amount is large or repeated, it may expand into a criminal investigation related to medical law violations or insurance fraud. In this trend, the size of the medical institution does not affect the intensity of crackdown. 3. Major cases of detection by type of institution and causes of increased risk of recovery. Points with a high risk of detection are different for each type of institution. At the clinic level, missing records, mixing of non-coverage and benefit, and discrepancies in the implementation of manual and physical therapy are the most common. At the hospital level, the main problems are errors in calculating nursing grades, differences in recording times for multiple personnel, and inconsistencies in document management standards between medical departments. In nursing hospitals, structural risks accumulate, such as not meeting staffing standards, violating long-term hospitalization standards, and adjusting functional evaluation scores. However, although the characteristics of each type are different, the results are all the same. Recovery, business suspension, and criminal risks apply equally to all organizations. Looking at actual cases, the danger becomes clearer. A clinician who was busy writing records after work due to busy outpatient treatment was notified of a refund of hundreds of millions of won when hundreds of post-mortem records were revealed in the EMR log pattern. At the hospital level, they continued to bill for 1:1 manual therapy, but were suspended from business after being caught in CCTV footage for rotating multiple patients. There was a case in a nursing hospital where hundreds of millions of won in refunds and fines were imposed at the same time due to the fact that claims for the same nursing level were accumulated even on days when there was a nurse vacancy. In addition, there were clinics that received tens of millions of won refund notification due to incorrect input by the billing agency, and in this case, responsibility was transferred to the medical institution that made the claim. The reason why the risk of redemption is increasing so rapidly is clear. First, a precise crackdown system was established in which AI automatically compares claims, records, CCTV, and logs. Second, there is a structural factor that strengthens the crackdown on unfair claims due to financial pressure on health insurance. Third, it becomes easier to secure digital evidence, allowing investigative agencies to reconstruct medical institutions' practical processes in virtually real time. Fourth, as the perception that ‘unfair claims = insurance fraud’ spreads, the number of cases being turned into criminal cases is increasing. 4. Establishing a response strategy and prevention system for medical institutions Ultimately, clinics, hospitals, and nursing hospitals must all recognize the risk of nursing care benefits as a ‘management system problem’ rather than a simple administrative mistake. It is essential to establish an internal system to check whether records and claims match, strengthen the EMR revision and log management system, manage CCTV evidence, train claim staff, and introduce a pre-audit system. In particular, the moment you are notified of an investigation, the speed of response and the establishment of an initial strategy become key factors in determining the scope of recovery and level of disposition. The recovery of nursing care benefits is a risk that goes beyond a simple financial burden and directly impacts the management stability of clinics, the organizational management of hospital-level medical institutions, and the overall long-term operating structure of nursing hospitals. However, most risks are fully preventable as long as medical record management, billing accuracy, and internal control systems are in place. Unfair claims are not a problem that arises overnight, but are simply a matter of management gaps accumulated in the absence of standards and systems being revealed at a specific point in time. 5. Conclusion Now that the boundaries between medical care and law are becoming more elaborate, all directors, regardless of the type and size of medical institution, need to view nursing care benefit risk as a ‘management risk that must be managed preemptively.’ With systematic preparation, medical institutions will be able to secure stability from recovery, disposal, and criminal risks and continue operating more sustainably.[View full article] [Contribution] Risk of recovery of nursing care benefits, an ‘invisible enemy’ shaking up hospital management (Shortcut) 2026-05-04T15:18:33.781Z https://www.daeryunlaw.com/en/broadcast/5897 Most of those who decide to divorce face the harsh wall of reality along with deep emotional turmoil. Especially when it comes to property division and child support issues, the wall gets even higher. If your spouse continues to unilaterally notify you by saying things like, “I can’t give you a penny because I don’t have any assets in your name,” or “I quit my job, so I don’t have the money to pay child support,” your eyes will inevitably turn dark. The court's judgment surrounding property division and child support is far from these superficial claims. The core of property division is ⑴ thorough search and understanding of the other party's property, and ⑵ contribution to the formation and maintenance of property. In particular, in the case of contribution, in accordance with Article 839-2 of the Civil Act, if there is no agreement on the division of property, the family court determines the amount and method of division by taking into consideration the amount of property achieved through the cooperation of both parties and other circumstances. If you have devoted yourself to housework and childcare as a full-time housewife for decades and have maintained a family, even if you do not have property in your name, you can be recognized as having made a key contribution to the property formation process. Conversely, when it comes to child support issues, you cannot avoid responsibility simply by claiming that you have no current income. This is because the court imposes an obligation to support children by calculating the possibility of future income-earning activities, that is, ‘estimated income’, based on past income, education, experience, etc. This is in accordance with the general principle of parenting that the welfare of the child should be considered as the top priority, and does not exempt parents from responsibility simply because they do not currently have any income. A recent case that the author handled well demonstrates the court's 'substantive judgment' principle. Client A, who had been a full-time housewife for 30 years, filed for divorce from her husband. The husband dismissed Mr. A's contribution, saying that all real estate and deposits were financed with his own business income. When the lawsuit began, he even hid his assets by transferring the business he was running into the name of his eldest son, who was an adult, and withdrawing his deposits. He also tried to avoid paying child support to his second son, who was still a minor, by claiming that he had no income. After meeting the client, I carefully reviewed the circumstances of the case. In particular, it focused on verifying the assets hidden by Ms. A's husband, how Ms. A's housework contributed to the increase of the husband's assets, and that the husband's cessation of income-generating activities was aimed at avoiding child support. As a result, concrete data proved that Ms. A supported her husband's initial funds for the business and helped her husband focus solely on the business by creating a stable family environment. In addition, we obtained financial transaction details and statements from people around him showing that the husband was exercising actual operating rights even after passing the business over to his son. Based on the evidence submitted by the author, the court not only rejected the husband's claim that Mr. A's contribution was 0%, but also did not accept the husband's claim that he had no current income. The court regarded the assets (business stocks, deposits, etc.) that the husband had concealed just before the divorce suit as ‘estimated assets’ and fully reflected them in the property division, and also recognized Mr. A’s contribution as being quite high. Furthermore, in determining child support, the court ruled that the full amount of child support requested by Mr. A should be paid by calculating 'estimated income' based on past income data and the actual operation of the business. As can be seen from this case, divorce litigation is a process of obtaining a result using legal standards and objective evidence, not emotional appeals or one-sided claims. Therefore, rather than giving up hastily or responding emotionally to the other party's unfair claims, we must seek legitimate rights through a systematic response. Above all, it should be kept in mind that the initial collection of evidence and organization of facts based on the review of the matter just before the lawsuit and the establishment of a strategy are key elements that determine the outcome of the case. Attorney Do-young Do of Daeryun Yeouido Law Firm said, "In matters of property division and child support, the court considers actual contributions and responsibilities beyond superficial facts such as title or current income. A lawyer must listen to the client's story and give a lot of thought to how to argue and persuade the court." “Even if you claim to be hiding your assets or have no income, you can secure and refute objective data, such as property search activities during the litigation process, the flow of property movements and value changes confirmed in past financial transactions, and surrounding circumstances, and obtain the help of experts from the early stages of litigation to clarify the facts and secure legal evidence, so it is more important than anything else to have a strategy to cool-headedly protect your rights without being swayed by emotions,” said Ga-young Jin, lawissue reporter. news@lawissue.co.kr[View full article] Divorce lawyer talks about divorce property division and child support... The court looks at ‘substance’ (Shortcut) 2026-05-12T01:51:35.820Z https://www.daeryunlaw.com/en/broadcast/5896 Indicted on charges of having church members occupy the door and disrupting worship, the appeals court said, “The church members came forward voluntarily.” Unlike the first trial, a man in his 60s who blocked the church door and disrupted a fellow pastor's worship service due to a conflict between church members was found not guilty in the appeal trial. According to the legal community on the 24th, the 4-1st Criminal Division of the Incheon District Court recently found Mr. In 2021, Mr. A was sent to trial on charges of interfering with the work of fellow pastor B by having church members block the main entrance to the church and sending a statement saying, “I will not give up the chapel.” The incident started with a dispute within the church. Due to the dispute, Mr. A received a provisional injunction from the court to suspend the execution of his duties, and Mr. B was decided to act as an acting representative. Afterwards, the church members began to fight into factions that followed Mr. A and Mr. B, respectively, and as the dispute intensified, it was confirmed that it spread to the point where they blocked the church chapel. However, Mr. A said, “I never ordered anyone to block Mr. B’s entry or issue a statement,” and added, “If Mr. B had tried to enter alone without accompanying church members, he would have been prevented from entering. He denied the charge, claiming, “It would have been allowed.” In response, the first trial court sentenced Mr. A to a suspended prison sentence. The trial court of the first trial said, “Even if the victim entered the church building alone in a situation where church members were in conflict, it was not a situation in which worship could be properly conducted. The defendant did not answer the victim’s phone call to hand over work, nor did he stop the church members’ actions. He implicitly supported the obstruction of business.” However, the appellate court partially acknowledged Mr. A’s claims and declared Mr. A not guilty based on the court’s provisional injunction decision. The appellate court explained, “The previous injunction decision only suspended the defendant from his duties and appointed the victim as an agent, but did not impose an obligation to cooperate in the handover. Looking at the submitted on-site video, it appears that the church members blocked the victim’s church members from entering, but did not block the victim.” He continued, “The church members stated that the defendant did not order them to write the statement and wrote it voluntarily.” He added, “Even if he did order them to write the statement, it was enough power to interfere with work.” “It cannot be considered an event,” he ruled. Attorney Kim In-won of Daeryun Law Firm, who represented Mr. A in the appeals court, explained, “For a statement to be recognized as an obstruction of business, there must be actual acts of pressure, such as the mobilization of a significant number of people, continuous and organized action, physical occupation, or obstruction of traffic,” and explained, “We were found not guilty by emphasizing that Mr. A was not involved in writing the statement and that he was only expressing a simple religious resolution and that no act of pressure occurred.” Reporter Park Chae-ryeong chae@kyeonggi.com[View full article] “I won’t give you a place to worship”… Church member who disrupted worship amidst factional fight acquits on appeal (Click here) 2026-05-10T11:53:40.535Z https://www.daeryunlaw.com/en/broadcast/5895 Daeryun Law Firm became the first large domestic law firm to officially launch a local independent law firm, ‘SJKP LLP’, in Manhattan, New York, USA. It is evaluated as suggesting a structural change in the way Korean law firms advance overseas by establishing a separate legal entity (LLP) that can perform legal work in the United States, rather than a simple overseas office. SJKP held an opening ceremony at its office in One World Trade Center (1WTC) in Manhattan, New York on the 20th (local time). The event was attended by about 80 political figures, including CEOs Daeryun Kim Kuk-il and Park Dong-il, New York Governor's Office Director of Asian and Pacific Affairs Sibu Nair, New York Police Commissioner (interim) Alden Foster, KOTRA New York Director Kim Rak-gon, Shinhan Bank North America President Do Geon-woo, Catskill Investment CEO Ryan Blakley, and LS Cable & System New York Corporation President Jeon Gye-ho. This was achieved. Daeryun Kim Kuk-il, CEO of SJKP, said in his opening speech, "The launch of SJKP is not simply the opening of an overseas office, but the first step in implementing the legal service model accumulated in Korea in New York, the center of the global legal market. We will expand customer-centered services based on honesty and trust to global standards to build a sustainable global one-stop service network connecting Korea and the United States." ▲ Securing speed and expertise through an independent corporation model The biggest feature of SJKP is that it is an ‘independent corporation (LLP)’ with the same legal status as a local law firm in the United States. In the case of overseas offices operated by domestic law firms, there was a limitation in that they generally only played a role in coordinating overseas transactions of Korean companies or supporting collaboration with local law firms. On the other hand, in the case of SJKP, American lawyers can directly perform litigation, consulting, and contract review work in the name of SJKP. It is symbolic in that it overcomes the legal and institutional limitations of existing overseas offices and establishes a system that can function directly as a local law firm. ▲ Establishment of a ‘direct response’ system… Strengthening customer response speed and quality As SJKP operates as an independent corporation, it is expected that there will be changes in the way customers request cases. This is because, unlike the existing method, which required reappointing a local law firm through an overseas office, lawyers residing in New York can immediately review the case and take initial action. Customers are also expected to save time and costs through prompt legal response. In addition, SJKP organically cooperates with Daeryun, which has more than 300 legal experts. Among the issues reviewed locally, if there is a need for interpretation of Korean law, it will be directly connected to Daeryun and processed accordingly. Through this, customers can receive one-stop legal services without the hassle of entrusting legal issues in the United States and Korea, two countries with different jurisdictions, to separate law firms. To strengthen its expertise, SJKP has recruited a large number of legal experts who have accumulated various experiences in major law firms in the United States, ICE (Federal Immigration and Customs Enforcement), Glover IT companies, financial institutions, and government agencies. These are New York and Washington D.C. He has accumulated practical experience in a wide range of fields, including civil and criminal affairs, international transactions, financial crimes, corporate law, asset management, real estate investment, and immigration and visas.

"It created anxiety" Prosecutors said "Stalking is not a crime just because the other generation does not want to hear complaints" Not indicted A woman who was handed over to the prosecutors on charges of stalking her neighbors for several years for protesting against noise between floors was acquitted. On the 13th of last month, the Seoul Southern District Prosecutors' Office decided not to indict Mr. A, in his 50s, who was suspected of violating the law on the punishment of stalking crimes. He is accused of stalking his neighbor B, who lives above him, for about three years starting in 2021 due to noise between floors. It is known that Mr. A approached Mr. B by visiting Mr. B's house frequently or filing a complaint through the management office. Mr. B filed a complaint with the police, saying that even though he did not make noise, Mr. A continued to make misleading complaints and came to the front of the house to create anxiety. Mr. A filed a complaint. He denied it. An arbitration committee was held to resolve the issue of noise between floors, but Mr. B refused to comply, claiming that he had only legitimately filed a complaint with the management office. The prosecution decided not to indict Mr. A. The prosecution said, "If you look at the records, there were related complaints in other rooms as well, and judging from this, it appears that the noise between floors was real," but added, "The suspect has been filing complaints for a long time, causing inconvenience to not only the complainant but also the management office and other related parties. He said, "The dispute has not been resolved, so there was no other way than to file a complaint to complain about the damage." He added, "The act of filing a complaint itself cannot be said to be a crime of stalking just because the other generation expressed that they do not want to hear the complaint." Attorney Ji Min-hee of Daeryun Law Firm, who represented Mr. He explained, “Mr. A only filed a complaint to resolve the problem in a situation where he suffered from noise between floors for a long time, and he proved his innocence by emphasizing that he had no intention of causing anxiety to Mr. B.”[View full article] Complaint about noise between floors over 100 times, sued for stalking... What is the prosecution’s decision? (Shortcut) 2026-05-08T16:17:39.088Z https://www.daeryunlaw.com/en/broadcast/5893 Recently, ‘work loan’ organizations have been on the rise. According to a survey by the Financial Supervisory Service, the number of reports of damage from illegal private financing is increasing every year: 8,043 cases in 2020, 9,918 cases in 2021, 10,913 cases in 2022, 13,751 cases in 2023, and 15,397 cases last year. They target ordinary people who need urgent money with phrases such as ‘100% approval for everyone’ and ‘guaranteed credit rating upgrade’. In particular, because work loans are similar to the general loan process, loan applicants may participate in crimes without their knowledge and be subject to criminal punishment as accomplices. In fact, courts are tending to severely punish loan applicants who lent their names to work loans as accomplices who played an essential role in the crime. Even if the loan applicant did not know the specific method of committing the crime, if he or she knew or could have sufficiently anticipated that illegal results may occur while participating in the abnormal lending process, he or she may be recognized as a co-principal of conspiracy due to ‘intentional negligence.’ In this regard, Daeryun Law Firm lawyer Choi Han-sik (pictured) said, “Considering the structure, the loan client is liable to be punished as an accomplice in fraud or forgery of private documents, so early response is more important than anything else.” Attorney Choi served as head of the legal team at a large corporation and bank. Below is a Q&A with Attorney Choi. -What is a work loan? ▲Work loans, a type of financial fraud, refer to the entire act of defrauding financial institutions and obtaining a loan by falsifying documents such as employment certificates and withholding tax receipts of people who are not qualified for loans. Recently, the method has become more sophisticated, and brokers register loan applicants as regular employees in shell companies, etc., and then create salary transfer details or four major insurance payment records for several months to swindle loans. - What punishment will be imposed when caught? ▲ Work loans are a complex crime that combines several criminal crimes, and can be punished as follows depending on the act. First, fraud is established. The act of defrauding a financial institution with false documents to obtain a loan is itself a crime of fraud, and is punishable by imprisonment for up to 10 years or a fine of up to 20 million won. If the amount of misappropriation is more than 500 million won, the Act on the Aggravated Punishment of Specific Economic Crimes (Special Police Act) is applied and a much more severe punishment, such as imprisonment for more than 3 years, is applied. Also, since certificates of employment and income proof documents are forged during the loan process, the crime of forging private documents (Article 231 of the Criminal Act) and the crime of using forged documents (Article 234 of the Criminal Act) are applied. This corresponds to a prison term of up to 5 years or a fine of up to 10 million won. In addition, if you transfer or rent access media such as a bankbook or card at the broker's request, you will be subject to a heavy punishment of up to 5 years in prison or a fine of up to 30 million won for violating Article 49 of the Electronic Financial Transaction Act. The most important thing is that even if the loan applicant pleads that he simply lent his name, there is a very high possibility that he will be punished as an accomplice of a criminal organization. The court considers the act of providing one's name and cooperating with the loan application while knowing the dangers of work loans as an essential contribution to the crime and holds the broker responsible for the same responsibility. - The first thing to do when you find out that you have already been involved in work loans is ▲ Even if you passively followed the broker's instructions, there are many cases in which work loans are recognized as accomplices in fraud and forgery of private documents and are sentenced to prison. Therefore, as soon as you are aware of your involvement, you must stop all procedures and quickly initiate legal action. First, you must secure all relevant evidence, such as call recordings with the broker, messenger conversation details, advertising texts or postings, and deposit/withdrawal details. Based on the obtained data, it is important to consult with a legal expert to objectively analyze the extent of one's participation and intentionality, and to devise a strategy for how to make a statement during the investigation stage. If a loan has already been issued, one can consider surrendering through consultation with a lawyer. However, hasty surrender may result in admitting all charges, so you must obtain legal assistance to determine when and how to surrender. In addition, it is also necessary to immediately contact the financial institution that issued the loan, inform them of the fraudulent loan, and take measures to prevent the spread of damage, such as suspending payments. - Representative risk signals of work loans that the general public can distinguish are ▲ Recently, as non-face-to-face lending has become more active, there are many cases of people approaching through SNS or text messages with things like 'government-supported low-interest refinance loan' and '100% approval regardless of credit rating'. They pretend to be a normal procedure and induce the installation of apps from unknown sources, or ask for key personal information, such as a copy of ID card, bankbook, check card, and public certificate password, claiming that it is necessary to issue a loan. The information transmitted in this way is directly misused for crimes such as falsifying documents or opening a bank account in the name of the loan applicant, so you should never respond. Also, if an advance payment is requested for fees, work expenses, deposits, computer costs, etc., this is 100% fraud. Official financial institutions never recommend loans through text messages or SNS, or ask for money as a fee before executing a loan.

As it has been pointed out that the core design of the lightstick released by QWER is similar to the 'loudspeaker' shape that The Boyz has previously used, the conflict is expected to continue as each agency announces legal action. The essence of this situation lies in the boundary between ideas and expressions, which are the core principles of intellectual property law. Article 3 of the Framework Act on Intellectual Property defines intellectual property as something whose property value can be realized through intangible things such as knowledge, information, technology, and expressions of ideas or emotions created or discovered through human creative activities or experiences. In particular, with regard to the appearance of a product, the Design Protection Act and the Unfair Competition Prevention Act specify and protect the subject of protection. In other words, the concept of a 'loudspeaker-shaped cheering stick' itself is an idea and cannot claim exclusive rights. Although it is difficult, the specific shapes, colors, and proportions that realize it are clearly the area of intellectual property rights. It has been pointed out that the two controversial lightsticks are similar in the area of ​​these ideas, but the difference is also clear in that The Boyz's is heart-shaped and QWER's is circular, which is expected to become a major issue in future legal disputes. In this case, it is inevitable that it will ultimately be judged by two legal standards: the Design Protection Act and the Unfair Competition Prevention Act. The Design Protection Act serves as a preemptive shield that protects the exclusive rights of previously registered designs. If one party registered the design right first, the court determines infringement by considering whether the overall aesthetics of the two designs are similar in the impression they give to consumers. On the other hand, even if there is no design registration, the Unfair Competition Prevention Act can serve as an ex post facto relief device. The core of this law is to prevent acts that disrupt market order and obtain unfair profits by imitating the results of others' significant investments or efforts without permission. The court comprehensively considers whether a specific design is already widely known in the market and whether latecomers have imitated it and confused consumers. So what should companies and creators prepare to prevent IP disputes that frequently occur in rapidly growing industries and daily life? First, an IP portfolio must be created. Many companies and creators are often unaware of what intangible assets they have. For example, in the case of tech companies, it is necessary to look at not only patents but also ideas from the design process, such as research notes and blueprints. Design assets such as the product's appearance and packaging, web and app UI, and content assets such as promotional videos and work manuals are also essential. Even in the case of creators, creative works such as completed scripts and works, as well as individual characters and storyboards, must be recognized as a ‘bundle of rights.’ Second, ‘registration first, disclosure later’ must be made an iron rule of business. Before revealing an idea to the world, the most reliable and economical way to protect it is to secure legal rights by first applying for design rights or trademark rights. Responding after a dispute breaks out will only result in the double whammy of enormous litigation costs and a decline in brand image. Third, the possibility of legal disputes during the collaboration process must be blocked through contracts. IP disputes frequently occur not only in relationships with external competitors, but also with internal collaborators (employees, outsourced services, partners) who work together to complete ideas. Therefore, internal risks must be thoroughly managed from the beginning of the business by establishing clear legal measures such as ① signing a non-disclosure agreement (NDA) before discussing ideas, ② establishing employee invention regulations that clearly state that employees' ideas are company assets, and ③ stipulating IP ownership provisions for outsourced services in the contract. Ultimately, the way to avoid disputes lies in 'routine' management. Building an IP portfolio, the principle of first registration and then disclosure, and tight contract management provide a much more effective shield than responding after the fact. Unnecessary legal disputes can be prevented by preventing legal risks in advance by changing the attitude of recognizing IP protection devices as core competitiveness rather than complex regulations.

Lawyer Intae Bang introduces major issues and response tasks, focusing on banning retirement age extension and comprehensive wage system. Daeryun “We will further strengthen human resources and labor advice for companies.” Daeryun Law Firm announced on the 17th that it held a working-level discussion on trends in labor law revision at the ‘HR ROUND TABLE’ seminar held for human resources managers of foreign companies together with the Korea Foreign Enterprise Human Resources Managers Association (KOFA HR). KOFA HR This seminar, hosted by Daeryun Law Firm and held at Daeryun Law Firm's Yeouido main office on the 12th, was attended by many executives and workers in charge of human resources from global companies. The seminar speaker was lawyer Bang In-tae of Daeryun (41st class of the Judicial Research and Training Institute). Attorney Bang is a labor lawyer registered with the Korean Bar Association and is a practical expert who has provided advice and litigation on the overall personnel and labor issues, including employment contracts, wage systems, working hours, collective bargaining, and dismissal and disciplinary action, for various companies at home and abroad. In the lecture, Attorney Bang In-tae explained major issues and corporate response tasks, focusing on the 'extension of retirement age to 65' and 'ban on comprehensive wage system', which are currently being legislated. In the first session, Attorney Bang first The background on the discussion on extending the retirement age, such as labor shortage due to aging and low birth rate, and the income gap caused by raising the national pension starting age, was analyzed, and related bills currently proposed in the National Assembly were analyzed, and expected scenarios when future bills were passed were introduced. Next, as a way to prepare for the extension of the retirement age, we discussed measures to reform the system, including an evaluation system centered on competency and performance, personnel management, and career path redesign. In the second session, the main contents of the Labor Standards Act amendment regarding the ban on the comprehensive wage system were explained, and the impact on companies if comprehensive wage contracts were banned was discussed. Next, in preparation for the ban on comprehensive wage contracts, it was emphasized that companies need to make preemptive preparations by suggesting specific measures such as inspecting the working hour management system, improving work efficiency, and reorganizing wage regulations. In the Q&A session that followed the lecture, personnel practitioners at foreign companies asked questions about the operation of retirement systems and standards for judging working hours, etc., which they encountered in the field, and attorney Bang In-tae provided tailored advice based on actual cases. Attorney Kim Kuk-il, managing director of Daeryun Law Firm, said, "This seminar “We plan to further strengthen human resources and labor advice for domestic and foreign companies,” he said. “As the pace of legal change is accelerating, we plan to continue to provide opportunities for corporate human resources managers to share realistic solutions.” Meanwhile, Daeryun Law Firm is operating a corporate legal group that specializes in labor contract review, employment structure reform, collective agreements, and labor dispute response for global companies and foreign companies aiming to enter the domestic market, and is collaborating with professional organizations in the field.

Although the testimony based on memory had some differences from objective facts, the prosecution judged that the overall purpose could not be considered false. According to the legal community on the 17th, the Changwon District Prosecutors' Office decided not to indict Mr. A, who was transferred on charges of perjury last September. In August of last year, Mr. A was sued for giving false testimony while attending the trial of Mr. B, the former CEO of the company he worked for, on charges of breach of trust. The issue in the trial at the time was whether Mr. B executed the funds without receiving approval from the chairman, the actual owner of the company. Mr. A, who worked as the head of the management department at the company, testified in court, saying, "All funds, even if small amounts, were subject to the final approval of the chairman. Additional salaries paid to executives were also according to the chairman's instructions." The company then sued Mr. A for perjury, claiming that all of Mr. A's testimony was false. The company claimed that vouchers that had not been approved by the chairman were confirmed, and in particular, vouchers related to foreign currency execution were not approved by the chairman at all. The company also claimed that the payment of additional salaries to executives was done at the direction of Mr. B, and that Mr. A testified falsely even though he wrote a fact-confirmation statement regarding this. However, Mr. A denied the charges, saying, “The fact that some slips did not have the chairman’s approval was simply an omission in the lump-sum approval process, and I did not intentionally lie.” Mr. A also claimed, "In the case of executing foreign currency, there was no approval process from the beginning, and everything was reported verbally to the chairman. The confirmation of facts was also written according to the instructions of a company official." The prosecution ruled that although there were some inconsistencies with the facts in Mr. A's testimony based on memory, the overall purpose was not different from objective facts and there was no intention to perjure, and they were dismissed. It is a result of a combination of factors such as the possibility that the slip with the missing payment occurred by mistake as claimed by Mr. A, and that it is against common sense to give a large amount of additional salary to an executive without the instructions of the chairman, who has the final approval authority. Attorney Jong-Hoon Han of Daeryun Law Firm, who represented Mr. A, said, “The crime of perjury cannot be established simply because the testimony differs from objective facts, and the witness must recognize that he or she has made a false statement against his or her memory. The client must be aware that he or she is responsible for the company’s payment system and self-execution process. “Because I consistently stated what I remembered, I was able to get an acquittal by legally explaining that the entire testimony could not be viewed as false just because of some exceptional facts,” he said.

If he had been intentional, he would have left the place” A man who was handed over to trial on charges of drinking and driving a vehicle was found not guilty. The Ansan Branch of Suwon District Court found Mr. A, in his 30s, not guilty on charges of violating the Road Traffic Act (drinking driving) on the 29th of last month. Mr. A had a blood alcohol content of He was accused of driving a vehicle while intoxicated at 0.147%. In the process, it was confirmed that Mr. A crashed into a vehicle parked behind his vehicle. Mr. A denied the charge. After drinking, he fell asleep in the car. It was hot, so he turned on the air conditioner, and in his sleep, he touched the gear and put it in reverse. The court said, "At the time of the incident, the car was parked only at the rear of the defendant's vehicle," and "If he had intended to drive, he would have driven forward. “There was no special reason to back up,” he said, and declared him not guilty. He added, “The defendant was still sleeping in the car after colliding with the car behind him, until the police arrived on the scene,” and added, “If there had been intent, he would have left the location.” Attorney Kim Young-min of Daeryun Law Firm, who represented Mr. A, explained, "The Supreme Court ruled that if a car moves without the will or involvement of the person inside the car, it does not constitute driving. It is common to get out of the car to check the state of damage when a traffic accident occurs, but Mr. A emphasized that he was asleep without the intention of driving." #Drunk driving #Not guilty #Not intentional #Accident Park Seok-ho (haitai2000@ikbc.co.kr)[View full article] I was in my 30s after drinking and driving, but I was found not guilty... why? Court: “Driving was not intentional” (Shortcut) 2026-05-12T15:28:07.032Z https://www.daeryunlaw.com/en/broadcast/5871 Recently, voice phishing crimes have become increasingly sophisticated. In the past, there were many relatively simple forms such as ‘loan fraud calls’ or ‘threat calls impersonating prosecutors’, but now it is evolving into a method of using ordinary citizens as ‘tools of crime’. In particular, cases of recruiting people to participate in voice phishing crimes under the names of ‘high-paying part-time job’ or ‘part-time errand job’ on famous job search sites or SNS used by everyone are rapidly increasing. In fact, a client who visited the author not long ago believed an advertisement called “a simple online side job” on a famous social media site. I applied for a part-time job to help the household, and the company requested the client's resident registration card photo, contact information, bank account, etc. for recruitment and work. The client performed this, saying it was a simple task of sending the number '1' at a set time. A few days later, more than 10 million won was deposited into the client's account and then automatically withdrawn. The company's finance team explained that the deposit was for a business test. However, this was a typical voice phishing money laundering process, and in the end, the client realized that he had been involved in the crime without his knowledge, told his family about this, and turned himself in to the police. Clients involved in such crimes often say, “I thought it was simply a case of delivering company money.” However, such acts can be classified as transfer of cannon accounts, withdrawals, or transfers, and can be punished for violating the Telecommunications Fraud Damage Refund Act (Telecommunications Financial Fraud), the Electronic Financial Transactions Act, or the Act on Concealment of Crime Proceeds. This criminal structure is carefully designed, and recently, phishing attempts have been attempted by sending text messages containing URLs to job seekers who approached them after seeing online advertisements such as ‘300,000 won per day high-profit part-time job, working from home’ or by luring them through 1:1 mobile messengers. The number of methods is increasing. Afterwards, they request a copy of your ID card or account information and then use it to commit crimes. In addition, as a typical technique, cash is delivered in the name of ‘transportation of company funds’, ‘salary payment work’, and ‘quick service payment delivery’. Victims either provide personal and account information for money laundering without their knowledge, or become a collection agent or consignment agent, and are ultimately subject to criminal punishment. One of my clients started a part-time job through a close friend's introduction to earn living expenses, and although he was only paid about 1 million won in actual part-time work expenses, he was arrested and tried in custody on charges of acting as a collection agent within a large voice phishing organization. You can come across part-time job recruitment posts on the Internet. You must check whether the company is trustworthy, check the company address, business registration, official contact information, etc., and be immediately suspicious if it asks for personal ID, account information, OTP number, etc. No matter how close you are to an acquaintance, you should not be quick to be suspicious even if they suggest a part-time job with high profits and ask for your account and ID card without telling you the exact details of the job. In particular, it is important to keep in mind that saying, “You just need to hand over the money” or “Please do the banking for me” are representative voice phishing methods. Recently, voice phishing crime has evolved into an organized crime that recruits members based overseas, such as Cambodia and China. It is also advertised as a high-profit part-time job on famous job search sites and SNS, so people who are new to society, students, and job seekers who need quick money are committing crimes without knowing exactly what they are doing. Is involved. Voice phishing is not just a scam, it is a serious crime that destroys trust in the entire society. In order to avoid becoming a victim or participant in crime, you must above all be wary of the sweet temptation of “easy and quick money.”[View full article] [Monday Column] ‘Highly profitable part-time job trap’… The moment you become an accomplice to voice phishing crime (Shortcut) 2026-05-13T05:47:59.436Z https://www.daeryunlaw.com/en/broadcast/5865 In the past, fake transfers were considered just a means of getting children assigned to a specific school district. However, recently, it has turned into a serious crime aimed at economic gain, such as real estate fraud or tax evasion. In fact, the number of cases of fake transfers related to transfers discovered by the Seoul Metropolitan Office of Education last year was 102, an increase of about 70% in five years, and related crimes are on the rise, with fake transfers accounting for more than 70% of real estate illegal subscription methods. Attorney Kang Dae-hee of the Daeryun Law Firm emphasized, “Fake transfers are a clear violation of positive law, and it is difficult to avoid criminal punishment if you think complacently and react hastily.” Below are related questions and answers.Q1. How is ‘false transfer’ legally defined, and what is the punishment? What is the legal difference between simple address mismatch and ‘false moving-in’, which is subject to criminal punishment? A: False moving-in refers to the act of filing a false move-in report as if you moved for an unlawful purpose, even though you have not moved your residence according to the Resident Registration Act. According to Article 37 of the Resident Registration Act, it is a serious crime punishable by ‘imprisonment of up to 3 years or a fine of up to 30 million won.’ The key criterion that distinguishes between failing to change address due to a simple mistake and false residence, which is subject to criminal punishment, is ‘the presence or absence of an unlawful purpose.’ A crime is established when a clear intention to obtain benefits not permitted by law, such as a child's school assignment, real estate subscription, or tax evasion, is proven.Q2. Through what channels and methods do the government or investigative agencies mainly detect fake transfers? A: In the past, they often relied on internal reporting or civil complaints, but recently, the detection system has become quite sophisticated. The Ministry of Land, Infrastructure and Transport and local governments constantly monitor abnormal transactions through the Real Estate Transaction Management System (RTMS), and in particular, in areas where subscriptions are overheated, all winners are investigated to determine whether they actually reside there. In addition, it is detected by analyzing the actual living base using big data such as health insurance premium payment history, credit card usage records, and communication records. Q3. I know that there are many cases of fake transfers for the purpose of assigning children to ‘prestigious school districts’, real estate subscriptions, or tax avoidance. Recently, for what purpose have fake transfers become a major problem? A: False transfers for the purpose of school districts still exist, but recently, fake transfers related to real estate speculation are overwhelmingly common. The purpose is mostly to increase the subscription points for apartments in the metropolitan area or overheated speculative districts, or to obtain special supply qualifications given to residents of specific areas. In addition, false transfers for the purpose of tax avoidance, in which a false address is transferred to a house that is not actually occupied in order to receive exemption from capital gains tax for one house per household, are also treated as a serious problem.Q4. There are cases where the line between living in a different place due to employment, etc. and clearly illegal moving in under false pretenses is unclear. What is the most important standard to legally distinguish between the two? A: According to the Supreme Court precedent, when the address on the resident registration and the actual residence are different, the standard for distinguishing between legal and illegal is where the ‘substantial basis for living’ is. For example, if a couple spends a weekend as a couple due to work or temporarily stays in another area due to their children's studies, there is a high possibility that the base of living is at the original address where the family is. However, regardless of the location that is the center of family, social, and economic activities, if the address is moved solely for the purpose of obtaining specific benefits, this clearly constitutes a disguised transfer. In the end, the ‘purpose and intention’ of address transfer becomes the most important criterion for judging legitimacy.Q5. If you are suspected of false registration and are under investigation, what is the first thing the suspect should do? Can the level of punishment be lowered if the crime is voluntarily reported or the period of residence is short? A: First of all, you should avoid making hasty statements and organize the facts with the help of a legal expert. Attempting to unconditionally deny the charges or destroy evidence may result in unfavorable results. Voluntarily reporting a crime serves as a very important sentencing reduction factor during the investigation and trial process. In addition, if you can prove with objective data that the period of false registration is relatively short and that the actual benefits obtained through it are not significant, you can increase the possibility of receiving leniency such as a fine or probation.

Punishment and countermeasures for false transfers (Go here) 2026-05-13T19:37:26.230Z https://www.daeryunlaw.com/en/broadcast/5854 On the 7th, the ‘Special Act on Support for Busan Maritime Capital Relocation Institutions’ (hereinafter referred to as the Special Act) was passed by the National Assembly’s Agriculture, Food, Rural Affairs, Oceans and Fisheries Committee. It has great symbolic and practical significance in that it has created a hybrid model that can simultaneously realize balanced national development and the simultaneous growth of the maritime industry. This bill aims to promote balanced development of the country by decentralizing the administrative and industrial structures concentrated in the metropolitan area, and at the same time establish a new growth axis for the Republic of Korea by strengthening the competitiveness of the maritime industry centered on Busan. In particular, this special law is the result of cooperation that transcends the ruling and opposition parties and incorporates the contents submitted by Kim Tae-seon (Ulsan-dong) of the Democratic Party, Kwak Gyu-taek (Seodong-gu, Busan), and Cho Seung-hwan (Busan Jung-yeongdo) of the People Power Party. This is a symbolic scene that declares that beyond political factions and interests of specific regions, there was a bipartisan consensus on the call of the times for Busan to be Korea's new growth axis and the center of the maritime capital. Busan Port, the former center, is the world's second-largest transshipment port and seventh-largest container port as of 2024, and is the undisputed logistics hub of Northeast Asia, handling 24.4 million TEU of containers and 13.5 million TEU of transshipment cargo annually. As such, the core of this special law is to lay the foundation for the systematic growth of the 'Buul-Gyeong Marine Economic Zone', which is the heart of Korea's maritime industry and where the offshore plant market worth 230 trillion won is concentrated, centered on the site that is taking a leap forward as a smart port with the opening of the country's first fully automated dock in April 2024. To this end, the special law broadly stipulates support measures such as support for the relocation costs of the Ministry of Oceans and Fisheries, stable housing for government officials, education for children, and improvement of living conditions. In addition, by establishing a new marine specialized district system, it was possible to create a marine industry complex cluster that combines administration and industry, thereby laying the institutional foundation for Busan to establish itself as the ‘Maritime Capital of the Republic of Korea’ in name and reality. If the National Assembly quickly completes the Legislation and Judiciary Committee and plenary proceedings, the Ministry of Oceans and Fisheries will complete its relocation to Busan within 2025, and Korea will set an important turning point toward becoming a true maritime power. In order for this important decision to lead to the practical result of dominating the $3 trillion global maritime market by 2030, it is necessary to quickly complete the legislative process for the special bill as well as follow-up legislative processing. This is because in order to be called a true maritime capital, it must be filled with actual administrative authority by transferring shipbuilding and offshore plant policy functions, rather than simply moving the signboards of ministries. The capabilities of all entities must be brought together, including active participation from industry and academia to successfully establish ‘Marine Capital Busan’ on a new legal basis, strategic support from the financial sector to attract domestic and foreign investment, and professional assistance from the local legal community to legally support all of these processes. The process of completing all these tasks is the path to establishing Busan as Korea's undisputed maritime capital and a successful model for balanced national development, and it is the path to laying a solid foundation for Korea's new prosperity.

It appears to be focusing on using technology to increase customer convenience and standardize service quality between branches across the country. Daeryun announced on the 11th that it is operating a technology-based system throughout the entire process from initial legal consultation to case closure. During the consultation process, 24-hour basic legal consultation services are provided through 'AI Daeryun', an AI-based consultation system. This enables immediate consultation even at night or on weekends, and is later used as basic data for actual consultation with lawyers, contributing to shortening the first response time and maintaining consultation quality. In the case implementation stage, the mobile-based service platform 'MY Daeryun' is introduced and utilized. Through the app, clients can immediately communicate with their attorney and process case progress status, scheduled schedule, and submission of necessary materials in real time. Daeryun announced that customer satisfaction has significantly increased since the introduction of 'MY Daeryun'. Daeryun operates its own integrated case management system to unify the processing standards for all cases received at 36 state/branch offices nationwide. All incident information is automatically linked to the central server, and progress stages and responses are recorded according to the internal standardization system. It was built with the purpose of providing legal services of the same quality without regional variation. This technological infrastructure is expected to serve as a core competitiveness in Daeryun's global strategy. Daeryun has currently opened SJKP Law Firm at the World Trade Center in Manhattan, New York, USA, and is structuring the AI ​​and mobile-based systems being used domestically so that they can be used overseas as well. Daeryun CEO Kim Kook-il said, "Legal Tech is a means of helping lawyers focus more on their clients," and added, "We will continue to innovate in the domestic and international legal markets through technology-centered legal services."

Just past 8 a.m., the conference room door opens and lawyers from Daeryun branch offices located throughout Seoul take their seats one by one. Each person holds a case record in their hands. Attorneys Woo Jin-gyu, Chae Won-hyeop, and Park Jeong-gu attended the meeting that day. The person leading them is Chief Attorney Ahn Kwon-seop. He has led the prosecution practice in the special, violent, and general criminal fields for 25 years. After joining Daeryun, he is directly leading the cases received from all over the country. The case on the table that day was a group sex crime case that occurred in a local area. In Daeryun, where offices across the country are connected through a single network, ‘local incidents’ do not remain ‘local affairs’. In this case as well, four lawyers with extensive experience in sexual crime cases gathered together. “In this case, the key evidence was secured early, so we need to set a clear direction in the first investigation,” Attorney Ahn said, and Attorney Woo nodded and agreed, saying, “The client is also psychologically sensitive as a suspect. I think the explanation process needs to be designed more carefully.” Attorney Ahn, who is in charge of the practice, is famous for carefully examining case records within the company. Even on days when there is no trial scheduled, there is always a thick pile of record files at his desk. Attorney Ahn said at the meeting that day, "There is always a person's life behind a case. Understanding and empathy for people are ahead of the law. What is as important as winning a case is trust. Because the trust with the client built in that way becomes a lifelong asset." The most important thing for Attorney Ahn is communication with the client. He believes that since clients involved in lawsuits are inevitably anxious every day, it is important for the lawyer in charge to clearly explain the flow of the case first. He said, "I think it is basic to explain first before the client asks. If communication is cut off, no matter how faithfully the writing is written, trust will be lost." He said that he feels most rewarded when clients keep in touch with him even after the case is over. He emphasized several times that trust is built through the process, not the result. Even after the meeting is over, the lines at the national office are always busy. Case records are shared in real time through an integrated management system, and regional lawyers frequently access online meetings. Daeryun's case handling process is the force that makes 36 offices across the country operate as one organization. Attorney Ahn's philosophy that "trust is built in the process, not the result" ultimately encapsulates the direction Daeryun pursues in one word. Reporter Kwon Byeong-seok (bsk730@fnnews.com)[View full article] “Behind an incident, there is always a person’s life” A glimpse into the morning of Daeryun Law Firm (Shortcut) 2026-05-11T09:28:38.307Z https://www.daeryunlaw.com/en/broadcast/5849 Cyber ​​hackers hidden behind the anonymity of online platforms and reckless violations of personal rights by malicious commenters are exceeding the level of danger. The spread of false facts and defamation indiscriminately inflicted not only on celebrities but also on the general public and companies is causing enormous psychological and material damage, but the reality that it is difficult to identify the perpetrators is causing a deep sense of helplessness in the victims. Recently, a series of incidents in which the identities of YouTuber 'Pteokga' and the operator of 'Taldeok Camp' were revealed and they were held legally responsible have created an important inflection point in this hopeless situation. The identity of overseas platform users, who were virtually impossible to track through domestic judicial procedures alone, was secured through the U.S. federal court's discovery system. This sent a strong message to the market that one could no longer be safe behind the shield of anonymity. Until now, when a complaint was filed with a domestic investigative agency to identify a suspect, the investigative agency requested international cooperation and specific information could only be received when the overseas platform arbitrarily determined that a response was necessary. For this reason, due to the nature of the U.S. legal system, which does not consider defamation or insult as a crime when facts are stated, it was common for the provision of information to be refused or to take several years. In this situation, discovery procedures based on Title 28, Article 1782 of the U.S. Federal Code (28 U.S.C. §1782) are emerging as a very effective means of collecting evidence for foreign litigants. In fact, according to the industry, the use of this system is increasing, to the extent that dozens of related lawsuits have already been filed this year. In other words, by using this system, identifiable data such as IP addresses, subscriber information, and access records of anonymous users can be legally obtained from companies in the United States that do not have direct coercive power in foreign court procedures, and this can serve as a decisive clue to prove the facts in overseas lawsuits. In this process, not only individuals but also companies and public institutions can suffer defamation, damage to credit, and leaks of trade secrets. The number of cases of damage such as this is increasing. It also has a huge social impact, such as damaging the corporate image in real time or reducing the trust of public institutions. Nevertheless, it is difficult to delete content based on overseas servers or verify the identity of the creator through domestic procedures alone, delaying actual damage relief. This reality shows that companies and public institutions also need to have systematic digital risk management and a response strategy that utilizes the global legal system (e.g., U.S. Article 1782, etc.). So what preparations are needed to effectively respond to online defamation through the evidence discovery system? First, the legal requirements required by Federal Law Article 1782 must be met. When filing an 'application for discovery of evidence for foreign litigation' in a U.S. court, it must be legally explained in detail that ① the subject with the information (platform company) exists within the jurisdiction of the relevant court, ② the applicant is a party with an interest in the lawsuit in a foreign country, and ③ the information requested is absolutely necessary for the damages claim lawsuit to be conducted domestically. In particular, during this process, the U.S. court focuses on whether the act constitutes an illegal act or crime under the laws of Korea, the applicant's country. In other words, the key is to systematically prove the illegal act or crime to the U.S. court using facts, evidence, and related precedents based on Korean law. Ultimately, this process requires organic legal and procedural cooperation between Korean and American lawyers. Next, it is necessary to establish an integrated strategy that takes cost and time efficiency into account. The evidence discovery procedure has a complex structure that organically connects the Federal Law Section 1782 lawsuit in the United States and the main lawsuit that will be held in Korea after securing identity. In the past, the dual structure of requesting cases to a local U.S. law firm and a domestic law firm, respectively, resulted in costs of hundreds of millions of won and communication inefficiencies, but recently, it has become possible to dramatically reduce costs by carrying out procedures in one stop through a law firm directly managed in the U.S. What's even more encouraging is that the identification of an anonymous user can be processed quickly, taking less than two months, and actual damage relief is possible. Now that the online ecosystem has become the center of our lives, protecting yourself from anonymous attacks is no longer a choice but a matter of survival. Although difficult procedures and unpredictable variables still exist, actively using advanced legal means such as the discovery system will be the most reliable strategy to prevent online illegal acts in advance and actively protect one's rights, beyond simple post-event response.

Prosecutors say, "I don't see any use of profanity or force... I can't conclude that there was any harm in the remarks." A woman who was handed over to the prosecution on charges of making threatening remarks to a neighbor's child who was having a conflict over noise between floors was acquitted. The Uijeongbu District Prosecutors' Office decided not to indict Mr. A, in his 30s, who was sent on charges of threats on the 17th of last month. Around June, he was accused of going upstairs to complain about the noise between floors and threatening his neighbor B's child, saying, "I will find out which daycare center you go to." Mr. A denied the charge. He claimed that he only went there to request that the noise between floors be reduced, and that there was no intention to threaten him. At the time, Mr. B refused the request, saying, "The child is young and cannot understand," and countered that he had made the statement to confirm the facts. The prosecution refuted Mr. A. A non-indictment decision was made. The prosecution said, "We have not confirmed that the suspect cursed at the victim or used physical force," and added, "It is difficult to conclude that there was a specific notice of harm to the children in the suspect's remarks." Attorney Jeong Jae-bong of Daeryun Law Firm, who represented Mr. He explained, “The decision must be made by taking into account the circumstances before and after,” and “By explaining the noise situation between floors that Mr. A was experiencing and the content of his repeated requests to Mr. B to refrain, we proved that there was no intention of intimidation in the remarks.”#Interfloor noise #Threats #Prosecution judgment #Incidence Park Seok-ho (haitai2000@ikbc.co.kr)[View full article] I went to complain about noise between floors...

In the future, ‘Relationship Law’ will provide social services such as single-parent families, the elderly living alone, and the disabled. We plan to expand public interest activities through legal counseling, litigation support, and regular volunteer and sponsorship programs for vulnerable groups. In addition, we plan to cultivate legal professionals who contribute to the public interest through mentoring and internship programs for law majors and law school aspirants, and build a sustainable social contribution system based on this.

Hospital A: "Preferential treatment? Side effects? No problem." Everyone knows about Hospital A in Seoul. It is a comprehensive secondary general hospital designated by the government that is responsible for essential local medical care. The size is also considerable. According to data received by Democratic Party lawmaker Seo Mi-hwa's office from the Korea Health Industry Development Institute, the hospital's revenue last year amounted to 162.5 billion won. A The hospital is called the 'holy ground of clinical trials.' Clinical trials are research activities conducted on humans (patients or healthy adults) to confirm the safety and effectiveness of medicines. Among them, Hospital A is a leader in 'bioequivalence testing' (generic drug clinical trials), which determines whether generic drugs (generics) show the same efficacy as existing drugs (original drugs). As it is a sacred place, the number of tests performed is unrivaled. Hankook Ilbo checked the number of generic drug clinical trials reported to the Ministry of Food and Drug Safety from 2021 to August of this year, and 569 (39.6%) of the total 1,437 cases were at Hospital A. There was a significant gap between us and Hospital B, which ranked second (386 cases, 26.9%). Our pride is also great. On the hospital's clinical trial center website, there is a phrase that says, "We have been leading the development of domestic clinical trials." They added that it is a “world-class clinical trial institution” and “groundbreaking efforts and progress.” The clinical trial center's annual sales are said to be about 20 billion won.There's a reason it's doing wellClinical trials are subject to approval by the Ministry of Food and Drug Safety. It may be necessary to have sufficient facilities and professional personnel, such as a medicine storage room. As of last September, there were about 208 approved clinical trial conducting institutions across the country. How did Hospital A become the overwhelming leader in clinical trials for generic drugs? The industry cites three main reasons. The first is facilities and manpower. Generic drug clinical trials are tests that compare the efficacy of existing drugs whose patents have expired with those of generic drugs. It is important to statistically confirm to what extent the absorption rate in the body is equivalent to that of existing drugs. Therefore, the external conditions of participants, such as sleeping, waking up, and eating, must be controlled. Medication and blood collection must also be performed simultaneously. This means that lodging, lodging, and management personnel are essential. Hospital A is one of the few hospitals that can afford these. Since opening the clinical research center in 2011, it has been expanded and expanded more than three times. The medical staff is also said to be specialized in clinical trials of generic drugs. Hong Jeong-hee, director of the Drug Efficacy Equivalence Department at the Ministry of Food and Drug Safety, said, “The concentration of hospitals in certain hospitals means, in other words, that the hospitals in question are skilled in clinical trials of generic drugs.” Price competitiveness and location cannot be ignored. Tertiary hospitals, such as university hospitals, mainly conduct clinical trials for severe and rare diseases. It is difficult and expensive. On the other hand, clinical trials for generic drugs only need to check the absorption rate in the body. It is less than half the price compared to university hospitals. A pharmaceutical company official said, “In the case of Hospital A, the cost is around 200 million won.” The hospital's location in Seoul, within a 200-meter radius of a subway station, also serves as an advantage in recruiting test participants.My son's medicine is undergoing clinical trials at his father's hospital.However, what the industry is really paying attention to is the unique ‘clinical trial ecosystem’ centered on Hospital A. This is because the business structure that hospitals have built over several years is designed to maximize ‘their profits.’ The key is the Chairman of the Board of Hospital A. He is one of the leading figures in the medical field, having served as president of the Korean Hospital Association and president of the Korea Small and Medium Hospital Association. As the head of a public institution under the current government, he was often in the spotlight due to his close relationship with former President Yoon Seok-yeol. The first son is the director of the hospital and the second son is the director of the administrative center. The head of the administrative center is the vice president. Of course, there is no reason to view family management as strange. However, when Pharmaceutical Company I appears, the picture changes significantly. I Pharmaceutical Company was created by the chairman of the hospital's board of directors by acquiring an existing pharmaceutical company in 2019, and is still the largest shareholder (holding 21.03%). The CEO is the chairman's second son, who also owns 8.92% of the stock. Hospitals and pharmaceutical companies have a 'push and pull relationship' with each other through clinical trials. The father's hospital is in charge of all clinical trials conducted by the son's pharmaceutical company. Since June 2020, pharmaceutical companies have registered a total of 13 clinical trials for generic drugs with the Ministry of Food and Drug Safety, and all of them were conducted at the father's hospital. The second son also serves as the administrative director at the hospital. The administrative director is responsible for the hospital's clinical trial center. This means that clinical trials for the drug he created are being conducted at a hospital under his jurisdiction.After clinical trials... Dad's hospital purchases son's medicine in bulkAdhesion continues after clinical trials. Analyzing data obtained by Hankook Ilbo from the Ministry of Food and Drug Safety, data submitted by the Health Insurance Review and Assessment Service (HIRA) and the National Health Insurance Service to Rep. Seo Mi-hwa's office, and prescription records from Hospital A, Pharmaceutical Company I received approval from the Ministry of Food and Drug Safety for a total of 32 prescription drugs and over-the-counter drugs from 2020 until recently. And half of them (at least 15) were supplied to Hospital A. The proportion of items was about 46.9%. The amount of prescriptions was also not small. The father's hospital was found to have prescribed at least 600,000 tablets of the son's pharmaceutical company's products within the hospital alone. It is mainly used to promote gastrointestinal motility and relieve inflammation and pain. The amount of outpatient prescriptions was higher than this. During the same period, hospitals prescribed at least 879,000 out-of-hospital medicines (approximately 209,000 in 2021, 330,000 in 2022, 300,000 in 2023, and 40,000 in 2024). The number of out-of-hospital patients per day is said to be around 1,000 to 1,500. As a result of Hankook Ilbo checking eight pharmacies within a 500-meter radius of Hospital A, two pharmacies had records of prescribing reflux esophagitis drugs from Pharmaceutical Company I. The hospital's 'push' was focused on the early stage of the pharmaceutical company's business (2021-2022). 37.4% of the total prescriptions in 2021 and 28.1% in 2022 were prescribed at my father's hospital. This figure is based on the specifications submitted to the HIRA. This means that the actual hospital prescription rate may be higher. A person who knows the hospital situation well said, "I understand that Pharmaceutical Company I mainly produced drugs used in Hospital A," and added, "I think they wanted the money to circulate 'within the family.'" As a result, Pharmaceutical Company I grew rapidly in a short period of time. Sales, which were about 1,356.82 billion won in 2020, increased about 13 times in four years to about 17.2 billion won last year. A pharmaceutical industry official said, “For a new pharmaceutical company to break into a large hospital is in itself a ‘tremendous achievement.’” Hospital A, however, said, “What we purchased from Pharmaceutical Company I are inexpensive medicines that are routinely prescribed, such as gastric mucosa protectors.”Hospital A says “no problem”, is that really true?A Hospital says there is no problem, but is that really the case? This paper asked 22 experts from the medical, legal, and academic fields. They first pointed out the problem of conflict of interest. Clinical trial-related laws, such as the 'Rules on the Safety of Medicines, etc.', require sponsors (pharmaceutical companies, etc.) and implementing agencies (hospitals, etc.) to keep each other in check to properly verify drug effects and side effects. This is because if one person is in charge of both the client and the implementing agency or is involved in a family relationship, it is difficult to properly keep checks even for their own economic interests. An official at a clinical trial center in Gyeonggi-do said, "If the researcher conducting the clinical trial is under conditions to be influenced by the foundation (hospital) and the chairman, there is a high possibility that bias will occur." If checks are not made, the rights of participants will be violated to that extent. For example, if a problem is discovered during a clinical trial, the trial should be stopped immediately and reported. However, in a structure like Hospital A, there is a high possibility that the problem will be neglected or covered up. Park Eun-jeong, a researcher at the Korea Institute of Health and Medical Research, said, “With this structure, it is difficult to properly respond to problems that arise.”Many people are in violation of current laws such as the Pharmaceutical Affairs ActIt is interpreted that there is ample scope to view it as a violation of current laws such as the Pharmaceutical Affairs Act. Lee Seo-hyeong, head of the Daeryun Medical Pharmaceutical Group at the Daeryun Law Firm and an advisory lawyer for the Ministry of Food and Drug Safety, pointed out, “If the clinical trial sponsor and the implementing organization are in fact the same entity, but the clinical trial report was written with concealment and the drug product approval was obtained from the Ministry of Food and Drug Safety, this may constitute a violation of the Ministry of Food and Drug Safety (obstruction of official duties) that interferes with the review work of the Ministry of Food and Drug Safety.” A hospital’s purchase of a pharmaceutical company’s product may be viewed as a violation of the Fair Trade Act. Kim Seong-jin, a representative lawyer at K&L Law Firm and a former member of the Fair Trade Commission, said, "(The chairman and son) are related persons under the Fair Trade Act," and added, "Consignment and consignment of clinical trials and purchase of medicines can be interpreted as acts of unfair support." Group leader Seo-Hyung Lee said, “The act of entrusting a clinical trial can be interpreted as compensation for prescribing the company’s medicine, that is, an economic benefit (kickback), and in this case, the chairman’s family can be accused of breach of trust and Pharmaceutical Company I can be accused of breach of trust.” Hospital A strongly refutes this claim. Regarding the conduct of the clinical trial, he said, "Pharmaceutical Company I entrusted the clinical trial to Hospital A because it is an excellent and trustworthy institution. The clinical trial is carried out professionally and independently by six doctors from Hospital A, so it cannot be considered a conflict of interest." Regarding the purchase of medicines, he denied the possibility of preferential treatment, saying, "The Pharmacist Committee, composed of 10 expert members, is in charge of selecting and managing medicines." The person in charge of operating the hospital's clinical trial center said, "Clinical trials are conducted under the supervision of the Ministry of Food and Drug Safety, and since there is a separate clinical trial analysis agency, issues of concern such as concealment of side effects cannot occur."[View full article] Hankook Ilbo - The drug that was clinically tested and prescribed at my father's hospital was made by my son's company (link) Hankook Ilbo - Suspicious clinical trial ecosystem between father and son...

According to the legal community on the 9th, the 5th Civil Division of the Busan High Court (Chief Judge Jae-wook Lee) dismissed the appeal of the defamation suit filed by Ongroup Foundation Chairman Jeong Geun and Ongroup Medical Foundation Chairman Yoon Seon-hee against four dismissed Ongroup Asset employees. In the first trial, which was sentenced on March 26, the court also dismissed Ongroup's claim. Ongroup has argued that its image was tarnished by false issues raised by employees. The intention is that even though ‘Ongroup Asset’ notified the employees of the dismissal, responsibility was passed on to ‘Ongroup’. Ongroup Asset is an asset management company established in August 2023, and the largest shareholder is Ongroup. Ongroup Asset was closed down due to difficulties in registering as an asset management company. Meanwhile, in January of last year, the company fired its employees with a single text message saying, “Due to management difficulties, we will be closed indefinitely and are being laid off.” Employees held a rally against Chairman Chung and others to stop layoffs and liquidate unpaid wages worth 42 million won. The illegality of the unfair dismissal case was recognized in April last year when the Busan Labor Relations Commission accepted the employees' request for relief. The first trial court determined that responsibility for the unfair dismissal lies with the shareholders or affiliated companies (Ongroup) who decided to suspend Ongroup Asset. Chairman Chung and Chairman Yoon each own 25% of Ongroup Asset, and Ongroup owns 50%. Based on this, the court judged that it was highly likely that the decision to suspend business was based on their wishes and did not accept the claim. Lawyer Jeong Woo-young of Daeryun Law Firm, who represented the employees, said, "The employees have never expressed that Ongroup was the party to the non-payment of wages. However, they only asked Ongroup, the majority shareholder, to take responsible action." explained.

However, this valuable data resource is trapped in a complex legal system and is not utilized properly. 'data paradox'are trapped in.To overcome this, the Ministry of Health and Welfare will function as a basic law on the use of health and medical data. 'Act on Promotion of Digital Healthcare and Utilization of Health and Medical Data(Hereinafter referred to as the Digital Healthcare Act:)' We are once again pushing for the enactment.. In order for this law to be successfully established, the fatal consistency problem of the existing legal system must be resolved prior to enactment.. 'data paradox' Will this be a stepping stone to escape? The root cause of the current lack of utilization of healthcare data in Korea is 2020year data 3Conflicts between laws and conceptual confusion have intensified since the law was revised..Bioethics law in practical settings such as clinical research(Clinical research jurisdiction)and Personal Information Protection Act(Introducing the concept of pseudonym processing)This was applied simultaneously and a conflict of regulatory jurisdictions arose.. Under the Bioethics Act 'Anonymization' The concept is different from the internationally accepted anonymization process and at the same time has an ambiguity that encompasses the concept of pseudonym processing under the Personal Information Act.. This conceptual confusion is caused by the European Union(EU) Personal Information Protection Act(GDPR) Before and after implementation 2018since 7The need for improvement has been pointed out for over a year., It is an age-old problem that has never been resolved..In the field, extreme confusion arose over which legal standard should take precedence., Established under the Personal Information Act 'Guidelines for using healthcare data'remains as a non-legally binding administrative guideline.. 2018year or 2020If there had been a process of coherently reorganizing existing laws in 2012, industrial development would have accelerated much more.. This is an example of an example where, even though regulations have been relaxed, the burden on companies has actually increased due to the lack of consistency between laws..The digital healthcare law is 'rooftop house' not regulation, Correcting the existing fragmented relationship between laws 'system maintainer'must carry out its mission as. The true success of this law lies not in simply enacting a new law;, To comprehensively resolve conflicts between existing laws 'Legal and institutional resilience'This means that it depends on. 'Data use' activate vs Balance between protection The Ministry of Health and Welfare must implement a law that balances the conflicting values ​​of activating data use and protecting it.. Measures to provide transparency and strengthen data control rights for data subjects, especially in relation to commercial use, For example, my data-based dynamic consent(Dynamic Consent) We can consider ways to secure public trust by finding a method..High-value-added use can be promoted only when data that has undergone minimal data processing can be safely collected with the consent of the public.. This will become a key driver in accelerating the use of sensitive healthcare data.. This is why the Digital Healthcare Act seeks to legally establish strong protection measures by providing additional consent for high-risk sensitive information and specifying penalties for re-identification attempts..The Digital Healthcare Act must provide a definition of the highest concept that resolves the conflict between the concept of pseudonymization under the Personal Information Act and the concept of anonymization under the Bioethics Act.. In addition, the utilization standards and deliberation procedures that were existing administrative guidelines were absorbed into legal sub-regulations to provide a legal basis., We must completely eliminate uncertainty in the field by increasing the stability of regulations.. EMR Through standardization, the data between the rich and the poor must be overcome. EMR Standardization is an essential element that accelerates the use of data, such as transfer and combination.. However, difficulties in securing budget, Varieties of Terminological Standards, Various by institution EMR Progress was slow compared to its importance for various reasons, including the format..Insufficient standardization is at tertiary general hospitals and small and medium-sized hospitals., It deepens the informatization gap between lawmakers and causes data to create a phenomenon where the rich get richer and the rich get richer.. For startups and small businesses, it is difficult to enter the market due to high initial barriers during the data collection process.. In the end, like in the United States, each agency collects large-scale data on its own or, As it is now, it results in dependence on government-led national projects, which acts as the root cause of slowing down the development of related industries..In the Digital Healthcare Act, the Minister of Health and Welfare EMR Establish the basis for establishing and announcing standards for efficient management of the system, The government should be able to provide strong policy momentum to standardization work by preparing detailed policies based on this.. If the Digital Healthcare Act is successfully enacted, data-based precision medicine, artificial intelligence(AI) diagnostic aid, This will be an institutional watershed in which customized health care services are introduced in earnest into medical settings.. However, this presupposes that the Digital Healthcare Act properly maintains the consistency of existing laws..20262018 is an important turning point in Korea’s digital healthcare.. This time, if we only increase regulations while ignoring conflicts between laws and confusion over concepts,, Even though we have world-class medical infrastructure, we will repeatedly fall behind in competitiveness in data utilization..This time, we must complete a consistent medical data law system. 2018since 7I need to get back the time I lost over the years..

The court said that individual agreements written only to specific people take precedence over standard contracts that apply to all union members. In September, the Suwon District Court ruled in favor of the plaintiff and dismissed the defendant's appeal, as in the first trial, in a lawsuit filed by plaintiff A, a member of the union, to claim the return of down payment, etc., paid against housing association B. Mr. A joined the union in July 2016 and received a separate letter of confirmation stating that 'there will be no additional contribution.' Initially, Mr. A hesitated to sign the contract for fear of additional contributions, but he believed in the letter of confirmation given by the union and paid about 30 million won, including the down payment. However, after the extraordinary general meeting in 2022, the union requested an additional contribution of tens of millions of won from Mr. A due to an increase in project expenses. When Mr. A refused based on the letter of confirmation, the union expelled Mr. A. In the end, Mr. A filed a lawsuit requesting cancellation of the contract and return of the deposit due to the union's violation of the contract, and won in the first trial. The union appealed, arguing that “the other standard contract signed by Mr. A clearly stated that ‘additional contributions may be incurred.’” The judgment of the second trial court was the same as the first trial. The court ruled that if the contents of the two documents conflict, the individual agreement takes precedence. The court said, “It can be seen that the union encouraged the signing of the contract by offering advantageous conditions such as ‘exemption of additional contributions’ to only some members, including Mr. A, in order to actively recruit early union members,” and explained, “The special promise that the union made on its own cannot now be overturned by citing other provisions in the standard contract. Attorney Ja-young Yoon of Daeryun Law Firm, who represented Mr. A, said: “When the client was concerned about additional contributions, the union wrote a special letter of ‘exemption of additional fees’ and proved the specific circumstances that led to the contract through fact confirmation letters, etc.,” he said. “The court also determined that the union must keep its individual promises, so we were able to achieve a good result.”[View full article] Court: ‘No contribution’ individual agreement takes precedence over standard contract” (Shortcut) 2026-05-04T15:21:00.099Z https://www.daeryunlaw.com/en/broadcast/5834 There are more sophisticated and cruel crimes than voice phishing..

Victims may not realize it is a scam, Even after realizing it, I turn away and cannot escape.. In fact, in the investment fraud victim community, “Is this also a romance scam??”There are endless posts asking:. Even if the answer is yes, most people deny it.. Because I can't admit that the relationship was fake..

In the beginning, the victim does not feel any burden. ‘financial help’I request. Victims who feel romantic interest are afraid of breaking off the relationship., Or they send money out of pity and guilt.. Sometimes we make constructive suggestions, such as investments., They encourage direct remittance by citing absurd reasons such as deposit requests or account errors.. Furthermore, there are times when victims are used as a tool for committing crimes, such as helping attract investors for fraudulent investments or using them as a means of delivering cash.. This is a case where the victim becomes the perpetrator.. Can it lead to other damage besides simple financial damage?? Perpetrators build a strong rapport with their victims and steal their confidential personal information..

If the relationship goes sour in the future, threaten to spread it or, requesting sexual exploitation material 2In some cases, it may lead to car damage..I wonder why the victims become so defenseless.. Victims of romance scams often have narrow social networks or are emotionally isolated.. In such situations, kind words and empathy, When you find someone who consistently shows interest, you start to believe that they are someone who truly understands you.. So, unlike other crimes, the perpetrator receives attention and affection rather than threats.. Focus on building consensus.

In many cases, the lawsuit itself is given up due to the shock of a breakdown in trust.. Ironically, victims tend to believe the scammer's words but not the lawyer's sincere advice..If you have already suffered damage, What should I do first?? Romance scams are evolving every day. Lawyers also hear about the damage ‘If this continues, I might get hit too.’Because it makes me think,. If you have been harmed, above all ‘first responder’this is important. You must immediately apply for payment suspension to your financial institution., You must ensure that you do not completely lose contact with the abuser.. This is because the longer the connection is maintained with the other party, the more advantageous it is for investigative agencies to make arrests and secure evidence.. See a lawyer as quickly as possible and develop a case strategy., You must receive legal assistance appropriate for your situation..Is there any possibility of arresting the perpetrator or recovering the damages??

A real estate agent who managed real estate on behalf of the building owner and stole the deposit was sentenced to 5 years in prison. The Pyeongtaek branch of the Suwon District Court sentenced Mr. A, a man in his 40s who was put on trial on fraud charges, to 5 years in prison. Mr. A signed a lease contract on behalf of the building owner for about 2 years starting in 2022. He was accused of collecting about 1.3 billion won in deposits from 16 tenants, including Mr. B, on 35 occasions. As a result of the investigation, the owner of the building, who was staying abroad at the time, was unable to enter the country for a certain period of time, so he delegated the authority to manage the deposit to Mr. A, and it was confirmed that Mr. A took advantage of this to commit a crime. The court sentenced Mr. A to 5 years in prison. The court said, "The defendant used the deposit he received for personal use, and then received a large amount of deposit again while renewing a contract with an existing tenant." He said, “The crime is not good because he invested in stocks and coins and used them for his own business expenses.” He then stated, “The period of the crime was long, the number of victims was large, and the amount of damage was very large, causing financial difficulties for the victims.” Attorney Seongjin Yoon of Daeryun Law Firm, who represented Mr. B, said, “Deception, which is a requirement for fraud, refers to all acts that betray the duty of good faith and sincerity that must be maintained by each other in property transaction relationships.” He explained, “During the trial, we were able to receive a prison sentence by emphasizing that Mr. A borrowed the name of the building owner and deceived him into believing that there would be no problem with returning the deposit, thereby embezzling money.” #Building owner #Deposit #Broker #Prison sentence Park Seok-ho (haitai2000@ikbc.co.kr)[View full article] A real estate agent who manages real estate on behalf of the building owner and steals the deposit… 5 years in prison (link) 2026-05-06T01:51:41.162Z https://www.daeryunlaw.com/en/broadcast/5822 Daeryun Law Firm announced on the 5th that it has opened a local office in New York, USA.

Court: “There is no evidence of writing.” Defense attorney: “The investigative agency’s filtering method was a flawed premise from the start.” “On behalf of progressive college students, we are planting a bomb at the Supreme Prosecutors’ Office.” On May 17th last year, at approximately 6:48 p.m., a post like this was posted under the title ‘Saturday Day’ on the A University current affairs bulletin board of ‘Everytime’, an online service app for university communities. The police identified the mobile IP used to write the post and selected 197 cell phone numbers that were connected to the mobile IP at the time the post was posted. Among them, only one person, Mr. B, was a member of Everytime University A. Mr. B is a student at the university and was indicted on charges of threatening and obstructing the execution of official duties based on the fact that he accessed the bulletin board on the day the post was made very close to the time of writing. A bomb attack occurred at the Supreme Prosecutors' Office building and a warning was made as if it would harm the lives or bodies of Supreme Prosecutors' Office employees, and app users were made to call 112 to protect the Supreme Prosecutors' Office workers, including those in charge of protecting the building. The intention is to threaten. There are also charges of interfering with the legitimate execution of police officers' duties by dispatching police officers to the scene to search the Supreme Prosecutors' Office building and conducting patrol work. However, Mr. B consistently denied the charges, saying, "I did not post the relevant post" from the investigation to the trial. At the time, Mr. B claimed that his sister asked him to do a survey that afternoon, and that he only posted the survey and contents sent by his sister on the bulletin board a few hours later, but did not write a post. Mr. B claimed that from 4 p.m. that day, he He claimed that he accessed the bulletin board about three times between 6:22 p.m. and went to check the comments on a survey post posted on his account.

Judge Lee said, “It is confirmed that Mr. B actually posted the survey and contents sent by his sister at the request of his sister,” and “Mr. B conducted the digital forensics results requested by Mr. B and the investigation agency conducted. “Even in the results of digital forensics on the mobile phone, no evidence was found that Mr. B wrote the post in this case,” he said. He continued, “Not only is there no evidence to suggest that Mr. B was involved in regular political activities or expressed political opinions, but there is no clear reason or motive for writing this post,” and explained, “There is no direct and objective evidence at all to acknowledge that Mr. B wrote the post.” Attorney Woo-cheol Jeong of Daeryun Law Firm, who represented Mr. B, said, “In this case, B “The only evidence that Mr. B was guilty was that Mr. B was the only student at University A who used a specific IP at the time of the posting,” he said. “The method of filtering students at University A among IP users was based on a wrong premise from the beginning.” He added, “We emphasized that convicting a young man simply because of several coincidences is directly contrary to the principle of criminal trial, ‘When in doubt, use the defendant’s benefit.’” Reporter Han Su-hyeon (shan@news1.kr)[View full article] A progressive college student was indicted for the “Supreme Prosecutor’s Office bombing,” but there was no evidence?

According to the legal community on the 3rd, the Seoul Central District Court ruled in favor of the plaintiff in the insurance money lawsuit filed against the insurance company by the surviving family of Mr. A, who took his own life last September. In 2017, Mr. A signed an insurance contract with himself as the insured and the beneficiary of the death benefit as his legal heir. At the time, the contract contained a clause that insurance money would not be paid if the insured intentionally harmed himself, but that an exception would be made if the insured was unable to make free decisions due to mental or physical loss. Five years later, Mr. A committed suicide. Mr. A's surviving family applied for death benefits from the insurance company, but were refused payment. Although Mr. A was drunk at the time, considering the fact that he prepared the suicide tool himself, he was not in a state where he could not make a free decision. Accordingly, the bereaved family filed a lawsuit. It was claimed that Mr. A had suffered from depression for a long time and was suffering from extreme stress due to a lawsuit with his brother. Additionally, while discussing the lawsuit with his family, a fight broke out and the police were dispatched. He emphasized that he was anxious that this would become known at work, etc. The court ruled in favor of the bereaved family. The court said, "The deceased drank alcohol while taking drugs in a very mentally difficult state, including going through a lawsuit with his family of origin before the accident. The deceased's violent behavior at the time showed that he was unable to control his impulses after drinking, and he was at high risk of committing other impulsive acts." He continued, "In this state, it is reasonable to say that he impulsively committed suicide due to anxiety, regret, and despair." He added, "It cannot be seen as a choice." Kim Young-min, a lawyer at the Daeryun Law Firm who represented Mr. A, explained, "Whether the person was unable to make free decisions is determined by comprehensively considering the physical and mental situation of the suicide, the time and degree of onset of mental illness, and the surrounding circumstances at the time."

The bereaved family of a mother who was transferred to the hospital but died after complaining of breathing difficulties after giving birth won a lawsuit filed against the hospital's medical staff for damages. The Cheongju District Court ruled in favor of a portion of the plaintiffs, saying, "The defendant should compensate the plaintiffs a total of 330 million won," in a lawsuit for damages filed by the bereaved family of A, who died after giving birth last September, against the obstetrics and gynecology staff. In March 2023, A was admitted to a local hospital to give birth. He was admitted to the obstetrics and gynecology department and underwent a cesarean section. However, Mr. A complained of pain in the surgical area the morning after the surgery, and soon after began to show symptoms of difficulty breathing. Accordingly, the hospital medical staff provided emergency treatment using an oxygen tank, but Mr. A's condition worsened, and Mr. A, who was transferred to a nearby university hospital, eventually died in the early morning of the next day. The National Institute of Forensic Science revealed that Mr. A's cause of death was pulmonary thromboembolism. Mr. A's side The bereaved family pointed out that the hospital medical staff did not conduct an initial evaluation, such as measuring physical vital signs, on Mr. A, who was showing symptoms of difficulty breathing. In particular, they filed a lawsuit, claiming that the death occurred because they did not provide oxygen through ambubagging to Mr. A until cardiac arrest occurred and did not take emergency measures in time, such as belated endotracheal intubation. The hospital medical staff objected. Immediately after the symptoms of breathing difficulty occurred, they began supplying oxygen through an oxygen tank to Mr. A and immediately called 119. While reporting, he claimed that tracheal intubation was performed in consultation with an anesthesiologist residing at the hospital. At the same time, he emphasized that he had exercised all his duties of care as an obstetrician-gynecologist. The court sided with Mr. A's bereaved family. The court said, "This court's medical records expert may suspect pulmonary embolism if an elderly mother with the same physical condition as the deceased suddenly complains of difficulty breathing, and if she does not breathe on her own, ambubagging or endotracheal intubation should be promptly performed." He explained, "We have presented an opinion to the effect that it should be carried out." The court then pointed out, "However, considering that endotracheal intubation was performed only about 43 minutes after the deceased first complained of difficulty breathing and collapsed, it appears that the hospital medical staff did not take any special measures to secure the deceased's airway until the firefighters arrived." However, the court ruled that the medical staff did not take measures such as CPR until after endotracheal intubation and transfer to the university hospital. It was added that it is reasonable to limit the scope of compensation liability to 60%, taking into account the fact that measures were taken to transfer Mr. He explained, “I was able to get a favorable ruling by emphasizing it.” #Mother #Death #Emergency measures #Court #Accident Park Seok-ho (haitai2000@ikbc.co.kr)[View full article] Mother who died after giving birth... Law: “Hospitals are responsible for failing to provide emergency treatment in a timely manner” (Shortcut) 2026-05-13T12:52:06.085Z https://www.daeryunlaw.com/en/broadcast/5800 Recently, the government announced the 'First Plan to Rationalize Economic Punishment' and formalized the abolition of breach of trust in the criminal law. As the breach of trust regulations, which had failed to pass the threshold despite several discussions in the past, are being abolished for the first time in 70 years, the business community is rejoicing, while all attention is focused on the direction of future alternative legislation. Until now, the crime of breach of trust has been considered the biggest fetter on corporate management due to the ambiguity of the requirements such as 'violation of duty' and 'property damage'. In fact, according to a study by the Korea Chamber of Commerce and Industry, the acquittal rate for breach of trust and embezzlement was 6.7%, which is more than twice the average for all criminal offenses (3.2%), which shows the uncertainty of legal principles that make it difficult to guarantee results even in prosecution by the prosecution. This uncertainty acts as a fear that even good-faith management judgments may be subject to criminal punishment, which discourages management and prevents companies from pursuing new business or making bold investments such as M&A. The ‘judicialization’ was solidified. This is in contrast to the cases of major developed countries such as the United States and Germany, which mostly prioritize civil resolution procedures. So what should companies prepare after the abolition of breach of trust? It is expected that the alternative legislative direction to be pursued within the year will be to severely punish malicious crimes such as embezzlement through the Act on the Aggravated Punishment of Private Interests, etc., but leave responsibility for general management judgment to civil relief procedures such as shareholder representative lawsuits. Accordingly, companies first need to thoroughly prepare for civil risks that will be strengthened, such as shareholder representative lawsuits. If the criminal complaint/indictment card disappears, shareholders will more actively use shareholder representative lawsuits to hold directors accountable. Therefore, in the decision-making process of the board of directors, companies must secure procedural legitimacy by recording and managing in detail not only the final conclusion, but also the information on which the judgment was based, the contents of the review, and opposing opinions. If you have sought advice from an external expert, it is important to clearly state the details. Second, the importance of D&O Insurance will increase. To prepare for the possibility that the frequency and scale of civil lawsuits will increase after the abolition of breach of trust, companies should reexamine the limits and scope of coverage of existing insurance. This can be the most practical safety measure to protect individual executives from potential litigation risks and help them focus on their business activities with confidence. In the future, it is necessary to pay attention to new products that will appear in the market, such as special provisions related to shareholder representative lawsuits. Lastly, the compliance monitoring and internal control system must be upgraded to the next level. Beyond simply formal procedures, we must institutionalize a prior review process that simulates legal risks that may arise when making major investments or M&A decisions in advance and transparently reports them to the board of directors. Through regular board education, we must not only make directors clearly aware of their fiduciary duties and scope of responsibility, but also actively inform shareholders of these efforts to advance corporate governance and secure long-term trust.

Based on field experience, he has a broad spectrum of activities, including serving as a human rights policy officer at the Supreme Prosecutors' Office and a construction counselor at the Embassy in China. Daeryun Law Firm announced on the 27th that it has further strengthened its expertise in the criminal field by recruiting attorney Kyung-won Yoon, a former chief prosecutor. Attorney Kyung-won Yoon has served as chief prosecutor (trial) at the Seoul High Prosecutors' Office, as well as chief prosecutor of the Women and Children's Crime Investigation Department at the Busan District Prosecutors' Office. He is a practical lawyer who was in charge of all criminal fields while working at major prosecutors' offices across the country, including Daegu District Prosecutors' Office, Seoul Central District Prosecutors' Office, and Suwon District Prosecutors' Office. While working at the Busan District Prosecutors' Office, he directly led sensitive human rights crimes such as sexual violence, domestic violence, and juvenile cases, and worked to protect victims and ensure fair procedures. At the Ansan Branch of the Seoul Central District Prosecutors' Office and Suwon District Prosecutors' Office, he focused on investigating public security, tax, customs, and economic crime cases, gaining deep insight and experience in social cases. At the Daegu District Prosecutors' Office and the Gwangju District Prosecutors' Jangheung Branch, he demonstrated a wide range of investigative capabilities while handling a variety of criminal cases, including violent crimes, pharmaceuticals, and maritime cases. While serving as a human rights policy officer at the Supreme Prosecutors' Office, Attorney Kyung-won Yoon oversaw the prosecution's human rights protection policy and has maintained a perspective that emphasizes the balance between guaranteeing the human rights of suspects and protecting victims throughout criminal proceedings. In addition, he served as head of the Legal Education Department at the Legal Research and Training Institute and as a counselor at the Embassy in China, serving as an international criminal. and legal cooperation affairs, and has experience in legal networks and policies encompassing both domestic and foreign countries. He has also been active in the Korean-Chinese Law Society and the Unification and North Korean Law Society, and has also continuously participated in research in the field of international law and unification law.

Attorney Yoon said, "Based on my experience in criminal cases so far, I will determine the substantive truth of the case. He expressed his ambition by saying, “I want to provide legal assistance that provides practical help to those who desperately need the protection of the law.” Kim Kuk-il, managing attorney of Daeryun Law Firm, said, “The recruitment of Attorney Yoon will be an opportunity to expand Daeryun’s service spectrum, not only in the criminal and trial fields but also in international law and human rights policy,” adding, “We will establish ourselves as a trusted law firm through legal services that combine publicness and expertise.” Law Leader Reporter Son Dong-wook twson@lawleader.co.kr Law Leader - Daeryun Law Firm recruits former Chief Prosecutor Kyeong-won Yoon (Click here) Sports Seoul - Daeryun Law Firm recruits former Chief Prosecutor Kyeong-won Yoon (Click here) MBN - Former Chief Prosecutor Kyung-won Yoon joins Daeryun Law Firm as Chief General Counsel (Click here) 2026-05-11T07:48:38.507Z https://www.daeryunlaw.com/en/broadcast/5796 A trainer in his 30s who was put on trial on charges of intentionally making physical contact while providing massage and corrective exercise while guiding a teenage female member at a gym was found not guilty. According to the legal community on the 27th, the 1st Criminal Division of the Western Branch of the Daegu District Court acquitted a man in his 30s, Mr. A, who was put on trial on charges of violating the Act on Sexual Protection of Children and Adolescents on the 25th of last month. Mr. A, a gym trainer, will be released in 2023. He was indicted on charges of molesting B, a teenage member at a gym, by approaching him and offering to give her a massage. However, Mr. A claimed that he only gave B a massage to help her stretch and correct her posture, and that he did not molest her. Ms. B also took issue with turning off the lights in the gym during the massage, but Mr. A refuted that he turned off the lights because the deadline was approaching. The court found Mr. A's claim more credible than Ms. B's and declared her not guilty. This is because Ms. B's statements regarding the number, date, and method of molestation continued to change, but Mr. A maintained a consistent statement. In addition, when Mr. A usually guided other members' exercise, he also did the same corrective exercises as he did for Ms. B, and the place where the massage was performed was also covered by CCTV, so it was judged that Mr. A could not be considered to have intentionally committed physical contact. Attorney Kang Hyeon-gu of Daeryun Law Firm, who represented Mr. A, said, "In a situation where Mr. A denies the charges, direct evidence is not available. If there is none, only the victim's statement serves as evidence of guilt, and in this case, the rationality of the statement and the objective circumstances are all taken into consideration to determine the case, and the fact that Mr. A had lived with the members without any problems for over 10 years, as well as the contradictions in Mr. B's statement, allowed him to be declared not guilty.” Busan reporter Jeong Cheol-wook[View full article] Trainer accused of molestation during massage ‘not guilty’… Court: “Victim’s statement is inconsistent” (link) 2026-05-08T22:23:59.169Z https://www.daeryunlaw.com/en/broadcast/5795 On the 21st, BJ Juice Seyeon won the first trial of a damages lawsuit against cyber Wrecka YouTuber ‘Pteokga’. Following the Jang Won-young case, which revealed the identity of the operator of YouTuber's 'Taldeok Camp', this is another case through the US court's 'discovery system (discovery of evidence)'. However, despite such a powerful solution, the hundreds of millions of won in litigation costs incurred due to complex procedures such as cooperation with local US law firms have been considered an insurmountable barrier to entry for most YouTubers and influencers. Accordingly, Daeryun Law Firm recently opened an office in New York, US. It was announced on the 27th that unnecessary duplicate costs were eliminated through the 'one-stop overseas defamation response service'. The main content is that Daeryun's local U.S. lawyers collaborate with domestic lawyers based on the identity information secured in the U.S. court to provide integrated support for all processes of civil and criminal litigation. American attorney Son Dong-hoo, who leads Daeryun's U.S. subsidiary, said about the key to cost reduction, "The existing discovery system had a dual structure of paying fees to domestic and overseas law firms, but Daeryun had a local law firm affiliated with the New York office. “The lawyer directly performs all processes,” he explained. “Through this, unnecessary duplicate costs and inefficiencies arising from the communication process are fundamentally blocked, and the benefits go entirely to the client’s cost savings.” Daeryun also added that they are designing the most efficient and realistic procedures for their clients by subdividing litigation strategies based on federal or state laws depending on the nature of the case and the location of the platform headquarters. The discovery system they use is designed to overcome the limitations of existing international cooperation methods. It is meaningful. Even if the domestic police requested cooperation through a criminal complaint, the provision of information was often refused or took a long time due to the nature of the U.S. legal system, which does not consider ‘factual defamation’ or ‘insult’ as crimes. On the other hand, the discovery system is carried out by demonstrating the need to identify the perpetrator for litigation in Korea through civil procedures and issuing a subpoena directly through the court. Based on its professional understanding and strategic know-how about this discovery process, Daeryun handles the entire process. We are establishing and operating an optimal strategy to maximize efficiency and significantly shorten the period. This system goes beyond simply relieving personal damage and performs a social function of suppressing the spread of false information online and protecting the public interest. In addition, Daeryun plans to introduce a system that allows clients to communicate directly with American lawyers and transparently check progress through its own application 'MY Daeryun', which will be released within the year, to relieve anxiety caused by language and distance barriers. Attorney Son said, "The purpose of this service is simply to overseas “It goes beyond representing lawsuits to actually protect creators and influencers from perpetrators who cause pain by hiding behind anonymity,” he said. “We will contribute to creating a healthy cyber culture by providing reasonable legal services and do our best to prevent any more unfair victims.” Reporter Kwon Byeong-seok (bsk730@fnnews.com)[View full article] Financial News - Discovery system captured by Taldeok Camp and Buk...

In addition, Article 20, Paragraph 1 of the Pharmaceutical Affairs Act stipulates that only a pharmacist or oriental pharmacist may open a pharmacy, and Article 21, Paragraph 1 restricts a pharmacist or oriental pharmacist to open only one pharmacy. However, with changes in technology and market structure, medical institutions and pharmacies with various operating forms and new profit structures are appearing, including existing MSOs (network hospitals), medical consumer cooperatives, and recently introduced factory pharmacies. When opening and operating a medical institution or pharmacy of this type, the issue of illegality under the above Medical Service Act and Pharmaceutical Affairs Act inevitably becomes an issue. When decisions regarding partnership, investment, and operation are made by several people, including non-medical personnel, in a medical institution, it must be reviewed whether the non-medical person is actually opening and operating the medical institution through the medical practitioner (commonly known as 'executive hospital'), whether it is the overlapping opening of the medical institution by the medical practitioner, and whether it is the accompanying license rental. Whether or not the act of opening a medical institution between a non-medical person and a medical person through an agreement such as a partnership constitutes an act of opening a medical institution by a non-medical person is determined by who has taken the lead in handling the opening and operation of the medical institution. Specifically, the basis is the entity that procured the opening funds, facilities and land, etc., the entity that made management decisions and personnel decisions, and the attribution of profits (whether in the form of regular salary). In the case of a medical corporation, there is a possibility of being recognized as an office-directed hospital, but the office-directed hospital must be recognized as a non-medical person opening and operating a medical institution by exploiting a medical corporation that only has an external form through illegal means. In other words, it is only recognized in a limited way in cases where a non-medical person abuses a medical corporation whose entity is not recognized due to lack of actual property contribution as a means of opening and operating a medical institution, or when the medical corporation's assets are unfairly leaked, thereby deviating from the public nature or non-commercial nature of the medical corporation. In the case of overlapping operation of a medical institution by a medical professional, the eligibility is determined by taking into consideration all circumstances, such as the entity of financing, such as the opening process and facilities or sites required for opening, the relationship between the person in charge of opening and other medical personnel designated as the actual establisher, the method of raising funds, the decision-making structure regarding management, the entity exercising command and supervision rights over practitioners, the form of distribution of operation results, and if there is a hospital management support company (MSO) operated by another medical professional, the amount of expenses incurred by the company and the transaction details. There are cases in which medical institutions are not recognized as overlapping operations if they are judged to be at the level of simple management support or investment. Non-medical personnel who open an office hospital or medical personnel who violate the regulations prohibiting multiple openings will be subject to heavy criminal punishment and administrative measures, and profits may be recovered under the National Health Insurance Act. Medical professionals who lend their names will also be subject to criminal punishment and administrative action. Looking at the example of pharmacies, there is a possibility that partnerships or investments between pharmacists and non-pharmacists, partnerships between multiple pharmacists, pharmacy franchise businesses, and operation of factory pharmacies through partnerships may be recognized as license rentals in violation of the one-person-one-site operation principle. The Pharmaceutical Affairs Act prohibits all acts of leasing a license, receiving a license, or arranging for it. Even if the borrower is a pharmacist, license lending may result in criminal punishment, administrative disposition, and recovery of unjust profits under the National Health Insurance Act. In addition to the criminal punishment and administrative disposition described above, there is room for additional problems to arise, such as tax-related disputes and civil disputes over operation and profit attribution. Therefore, if you wish to open and operate a medical institution or pharmacy through partnership, investment, or a new business model, you need to be mindful of whether there are elements that violate the Medical Service Act and the Pharmaceutical Affairs Act in various areas such as branding or franchising, capital investment and cost expenditure decisions, and management consulting services.[View full article] [Contribution] Legal issues to keep in mind when opening and operating new types of hospitals and pharmacies (link) 2026-05-12T12:03:42.678Z https://www.daeryunlaw.com/en/broadcast/5790 The amount of insurance fraud discovered has exceeded 1 trillion won for three consecutive years, emerging as a social problem. Particularly, special caution is required as a careless attempt to receive more insurance money in the event of a car accident or hospital treatment can lead to irreversible consequences. According to the Financial Supervisory Service, the amount of insurance fraud detected last year reached KRW 1.1164 trillion, of which fraud related to automobile insurance and accident and disease insurance accounted for more than 70% of the total. Attorney Kim Gwang-deok of Daeryun Law Firm said, "Special laws apply in the case of insurance fraud, so a more careful response is needed." “There is,” he explained. Q. What are the most common types of auto and medical insurance fraud? A. The most common form of auto insurance fraud is intentionally causing an accident or exaggerating the damage from the actual accident and charging excessive repair costs or settlements. Typical examples include unnecessary long-term hospitalization for minor accidents or demanding settlement money by adding additional passengers. In the case of medical insurance fraud, there are many methods of making up documents to make it seem like you received treatment that you did not actually receive, or falsely being hospitalized even when there is no need for hospitalization. Recently, there has been an increasing trend of organized fraud in which certain hospitals and patients collude to intensively provide expensive, non-covered treatments and collect actual loss insurance money.Q. What is the difference between the ‘Special Insurance Fraud Prevention Act’ and general fraud crimes?A. The general crime of fraud is committed when 'delivering property or obtaining property interest by deceiving a person', but the Special Act on Prevention of Insurance Fraud has a narrower and clearer scope by specifying as a punishment subject to 'the act of claiming insurance money by deceiving the insurer regarding the occurrence, cause, or details of an insurance accident' itself. The biggest difference is the level of punishment. According to Article 8 of the Special Act on Prevention of Insurance Fraud, a sentence of up to 10 years in prison or a fine of up to 50 million won is prescribed. Repeat offenders are subject to aggravated charges, and if the amount of gain is more than 500 million won, they can be sentenced to life imprisonment or up to 5 years in prison according to the Act on the Aggravated Punishment of Specific Economic Crimes, etc., so they are punished more severely than general fraud charges.Q. What punishment will you receive if you are accused of being an accomplice by following the recommendations of a hospital or vehicle maintenance company?A. Even if the person did not intend to do so, he or she may be punished as an accomplice if he or she tolerated the offer from the hospital or maintenance company or was fully aware that it was fraudulent and took advantage of it. It is not uncommon for people to complacently follow the lead thinking 'everyone else does this too' and end up receiving the same punishment as the main culprit. Insurance fraud is interpreted as an aggravating element of the crime of fraud. The court determines the sentence by comprehensively considering whether or not the person initiated the crime, the degree of participation, and the size of the profit obtained, but even simple participation can result in a fine or even imprisonment. If you have been wrongfully implicated, it is very important to prove that there was no intent and to legally explain the specific circumstances that led to your participation in the crime.Q. How should I make a statement to avoid any disadvantage when I receive a call from the insurance company's Special Investigation Unit (SIU) to come for an investigation? A. The investigation by the insurance company's Special Investigation Unit (SIU) can actually be seen as a previous stage of the police investigation. All statements at this stage are recorded and can be used as extremely detrimental evidence in future criminal proceedings. Therefore, it is absolutely prohibited to hastily deny the charges or to speculate and state facts that you do not remember. You must answer clearly that you do not know anything about anything you are not sure about, and carefully consider what legal consequences your statement may have. From this stage, it is safe to prepare for expected questions and determine the direction of your statement with the help of a lawyer. It is also a suspect's natural right to be investigated in the presence of a lawyer. Q. A solution that can be resolved through acknowledging some of the charges and reaching an agreement with the insurance company is: A. When it is difficult to deny a charge because there is clear evidence, it is important to acknowledge the crime and show sincere remorse. In particular, returning the entire amount of unfairly obtained insurance money to the insurance company and reaching an amicable settlement serves as the most important reason for reducing the sentence at trial. The key to reaching an agreement with an insurance company is not just returning money, but the process of getting the insurance company to submit an agreement requesting leniency from the suspect to an investigative agency or court. In the case of insurance fraud, the amount of damage is usually large, so settlement is often considered to avoid imprisonment. However, if there are multiple insurance companies, you must be careful because civil claims for refund of unjust enrichment may result.

Daeryun Law Firm announced on the 22nd that it submitted a report on prohibited acts by business organizations containing the Korean Bar Association's violation of the Fair Trade Act to the Fair Trade Commission. Earlier this year, Daeryun unveiled 'AI Daeryun', an artificial intelligence-based legal service developed in-house, and began full-scale operation. In response, the Korean Bar Association expressed its intention to take disciplinary action, saying that it would take strict action after determining the facts. Daeryun later filed a constitutional appeal with the Constitutional Court, saying, “The Bar Association’s advertising regulations are infringing on the freedom to practice one’s profession.” Currently, the Constitutional Court has referred the case to the full court and is currently hearing it. According to Article 5 of the ‘Rules on Lawyer Advertisements’ established by the Korean Bar Association, lawyers, etc. can directly use programs such as artificial intelligence to allow consumers to use programs such as artificial intelligence. You cannot advertise in a way or content that allows you to use it or connects consumers to programs such as artificial intelligence. In addition, through Article 6 of the 'Regulations on Lawyer Advertising', which sets out specific details regarding the relevant rules, the Korean Bar Association stipulated that, in accordance with Article 5 of the Rules, lawyers, etc., who advertise the fact that they use artificial intelligence in their work, must register the relevant artificial intelligence system in advance in accordance with the Association's certification standards. Daeryun judged that the Korean Bar Association's regulation of artificial intelligence advertising directly violated the 'minimum regulation principle', which is a core principle of lawyer advertising regulation. In addition, the Korean Bar Association stipulates that advertising of lawyers' use of AI programs must follow the association's certification standards, but it was pointed out that the current lack of proper certification standards is resulting in the same result as a complete ban. Attorney Gye-Jun Son, who submitted a report to the Fair Trade Commission on this day, said, "Through AI technology, even information-vulnerable groups can receive quick and accurate legal counseling. “We tried to allow it, but the Korean Bar Association’s current regulations make it impossible to disclose this to the outside world, seriously limiting consumers’ right to know.” Attorney Son said, “The legal market is also in an era where innovation is needed. In the global legal market such as the US and the UK, AI-based legal services are already becoming common, and consumers have the right to receive better services.” He added, “Even though there is an opportunity to improve this through AI and digital technology, the Bar Association is regulating it.” He emphasized, “This report stems from the hope that the legal market will grow healthily through reasonable regulations.” #Korean Bar Association #AI Advertisement #Fair Trade Commission Park Seok-ho (haitai2000@ikbc.co.kr)[View full article] KBC Gwangju Broadcasting - "Time for innovation in the legal market"...

Following the arrest and detention of Koreans in Georgia, the number of cases where valid visa holders are denied entry at the airport has increased. The U.S. State Department recently significantly reduced the scope of interview exemptions for non-immigrant visa applicants. Face-to-face screening is also mandatory for visas related to business activities, such as short-term business (B1), expatriate (L1), and investment (E2). As the interview location was limited to nationality or residence, it became difficult to conduct a quick interview through a third country. These changes are directly affecting the business trip and investment schedules of global companies. Accordingly, large domestic law firms are strengthening their organizations dedicated to visas and immigration.

Based at the office, local lawyers provide real-time connection to visa screening, immigration procedures, investment advice, etc. Daeryun's U.S. attorney Mia Kim (Washington, D.C.) explained, "A U.S. visa goes beyond simple entry permission and is a process of evaluating a company's trustworthiness." Attorney Kim recently introduced a case in which a technical staff member of a large company went on a business trip to inspect U.S. facilities and was stopped at the immigration screening. These workers entered the country using ESTA and expressed 'inspection' as 'working', which was misunderstood as illegal work. In the end, all members of the business trip were denied entry. Attorney Kim later presented a case in which the B1 visa was approved again by supplementing the purpose of the business trip and supporting documents, emphasizing that "one word can determine the success or failure of entry." In another case, the head of a domestic mid-sized company was denied ESTA entry due to a past minor criminal record. Attorney Kim prepared information about the details of the case and the absence of risk of recidivism, went through the waiver process at the U.S. Embassy, and received approval for a B1/B2 visa. Attorney Kim said, "Recently, there has been an increase in visa inquiries from subcontractors of large corporations that have established corporations in the U.S. and dispatched personnel," and added, "There is a trend in which corporate transparency, employment plans, and business purposes are also evaluated. It is important to respond in advance to various variables." Recently, in the global market, visa screening has been strengthened and overseas business personnel are responding to local regulations, etc. Complex risks occur simultaneously. Accordingly, the role of law firms is becoming a strategic partner that helps companies achieve sustainable management.

According to the legal community on the 22nd, the Wonju Branch of the Chuncheon District Court found Group A, a teenage male indicted on charges of violating the Act on Sexual Protection of Children and Adolescents, not guilty on the 26th of last month. The sentence was handed down. Mr. A was brought to trial in June last year on charges of purchasing a link to a Telegram data sharing room containing a large number of sexual exploitation materials of children and adolescents. In the data room, about 1,100 files, including sexual exploitation of children and adolescents, were posted. Mr. A denied the charges, saying he did not know whether there was sexual exploitation of children and teenagers in the data room. It is said that he only purchased an access link from the administrator to view general adult content after seeing an advertisement for a data room posted on a Telegram channel, and was not aware that child and adolescent sexual exploitation material was posted. The court also ruled that it could not be concluded that Mr. A knew that the data room contained child and adolescent sexual exploitation material. This is because the capture of the data room advertisement submitted as evidence by the investigative agency was collected after the day Mr. A purchased the link, so it is difficult to view it as exactly the same as what Mr. A saw, and there was no evidence such as the conversation that Mr. A had with the data room manager. Attorney Gil Se-cheol of the Daeryun Law Firm, who represented Mr. A, said, “For the indictment to be proven, the actor must have tolerated the possibility of a crime occurring,” and “The notice at the time when Mr. “We were able to receive a not guilty verdict by faithfully explaining that it was difficult to recognize that there was exploitation material.” Reporter Jeong Cheol-wook[View full article] A teenager indicted for violating the ‘Scam Law’ by entering a paid adult chat room is found not guilty… Court “Cannot determine whether it recognizes sexual exploitation of children and adolescents” (Shortcut) 2026-05-14T05:18:41.994Z https://www.daeryunlaw.com/en/broadcast/5782 Constitutional freedom to practice one's profession, Violation of freedom of expression, etc.…Filing a constitutional complaint at the Constitutional Court Regulating the introduction of legal tech is an unfair act ‘Report to the Fair Trade Commission’…Establishment calling for investigation 9After years '10large law firm' Stand tall…“Future keywords are ‘Global mega law firm’ jump”Main office in Yeouido, Seoul·35dog branch office…Establishment of local corporations in New York and Washington, USA “AIThe era when human intelligence surpassed, The global legal market is becoming more sophisticated day by day.

The agreement ceremony held in the conference room of Daeryun's Yeouido headquarters on the 21st was attended by Daeryun's representative attorneys Kim Kuk-il and Park Dong-il and American attorney Son Dong-hu, while working staff from VCA Seoul, including General Director Brian Kim, Corporate Representative Jang Jae-ho, and Center Director Shin Ga-in, attended. VCA Seoul is an international school located in Apgujeong-dong, Seoul, and is the Korean campus of a prestigious private educational institution with its headquarters in Washington, D.C., Virginia, USA. Our school in the U.S. boasts a prestigious education system, ranking first in the Niche rankings as the best private high school in Virginia. Based on its local education network in the U.S., VCA Seoul supports students wishing to study abroad in the U.S. to enter prestigious U.S. universities and focuses on nurturing global talent with both academic capabilities and character education. Daeryun recently established law firms in New York and Washington D.C., hired local lawyers, and provides a variety of solutions to individual and corporate customers based on high expertise in the fields of overseas investment, immigration, and international disputes. Through this MOU, both organizations plan to focus on building a stable study abroad environment by providing integrated legal and visa-related support to students and families preparing to study in the United States. Specifically, we plan to actively cooperate to △ expand legal advice and visa litigation services for those wishing to study in the U.S. △ provide comprehensive legal consulting for VCA students and their families △ link consulting and services related to housing for international students, such as purchasing and renting houses in the U.S. △ enhance brand value by jointly hosting English and American culture seminars. Brian Kim, CEO of Veritas College It Academy, said, “VCA Seoul goes beyond providing prestigious education in the U.S., and has sought all-round support to help students continue their study abroad safely and successfully.

For a fraud to be established, there must be a deceptive act by the other party, a mistake by the victim, and the delivery of money due to the mistake. In other words, fraud is committed only if you borrow money by lying even though you did not have the intention or ability to repay it at the time of borrowing the money. On the other hand, if there was a willingness or ability to repay, but the borrower was unable to repay due to worsening economic conditions, this is nothing more than a simple civil default. The problem is that in reality, the boundary is very vague. For example, when borrowing money, you said, “I will repay you when I get my salary next month,” but in reality, if you did not have a job or income, the court may view this as an act of deception. On the other hand, if you are unable to repay due to a change in economic circumstances or an unexpected situation after borrowing, such as if you borrowed money to expand your business but are unable to repay the money due to an unexpected transaction stoppage or failure to collect bonds, it is only a civil default. If you were already in an over-indebted state at the time of the borrowing, or if you borrowed money by hiding it despite not having the intention or ability to repay, and if the other party would not have lent you the money if you had been truthfully informed of the purpose of the borrowed money or the method of raising funds, you are guilty of fraud. Ultimately, a crime of fraud is established. The key to judgment is the intention and situation at the time of borrowing money. It is necessary for a person lending money to understand the other party's property status, income, and existing debts at the time of lending money, and to record the circumstances, purpose, and conditions of the borrowing. In addition, the person who borrows money also needs to secure data to prove that he or she had the intention and ability to repay at the time of borrowing, and if he or she later repaid part of the interest or principal, this is important evidence that there was no intention to deceive from the beginning. Fraud and default have different starting points than the results. In other words, what is more important than the result of ‘failure to repay’ is ‘what intentions and circumstances existed at the time of borrowing’. Therefore, when making financial transactions, it is necessary to clearly record the circumstances, purpose, and conditions of the borrowing and to understand the other party's economic situation to prevent disputes and provide post-facto verification.[View full article] [Expert Contribution] Is it fraud or simple default?

According to the legal community on the 21st, the Seoul Southern District Prosecutors' Office decided not to indict Mr. A, a man in his 20s who was transferred on charges of confinement and forcible molestation on the 19th of last month. Mr. A was accused of forcibly dragging B, a drunken woman in her 30s, to his residence last May and confining her for about three hours. However, Mr. A completely denied the charges. He stated that he was also drunk at the time and only came to his senses after returning home, and that he only brought him home because Mr. B was dozing off in the hallway. Mr. A explained, “The landlord lived upstairs, and I was concerned that there would be trouble because Mr. B was right in front of the front door, so I agreed to go into the house.” The prosecution found that Mr. A was not guilty. The prosecution said, “As a result of checking CCTV, it is consistent with the suspect’s statement that he does not remember anything from the time the accuser was present,” and added, “There is no clear evidence in the recording at the time that the suspect forcibly brought the suspect home.” Attorney Ahn Kwon-seop of Daeryun Law Firm, who represented Mr. A, explained, “For an act to be considered a crime, it must cause shame or disgust, and confinement must make it impossible to leave a specific area, but neither of these applies in our client’s case.” He added, “Through the recording at the time, we explained the difference between ‘passing out’ and ‘alcohol black out,’ which is fragmentary memory loss, and we were able to receive a non-indictment by faithfully explaining that contact with the client was limited to assistance, etc.” Reporter Seohyun Lee (sunshine@kyeonggi.com)[View full article] "I saw you dozing off in the hallway..."

According to the legal community on the 20th, the 2nd and 3rd administrative divisions of the Uijeongbu District Court ruled in favor of the plaintiff in the suit to cancel the demotion filed by A, a man in his 20s, against an army official on the 30th of last month. Mr. A was demoted last year for sexually harassing two superiors in front of fellow soldiers in 2022 while he was serving in the military. However, Mr. A filed an appeal, claiming that the disposition was not legal. He did not commit an insult by referring to a specific person, and only spoke once in an ambiguous expression. The military, which reviewed the case, dismissed it, and Mr. A filed an administrative lawsuit in court. The military countered that the filing of the lawsuit itself was illegal because Mr. A had already been discharged from the military. It was also emphasized that there was no coercive investigation and that Mr. A had made insulting remarks by specifying the victims' names. The court ultimately ruled in Mr. A's favor. The court first judged Mr. A's lawsuit as legal, saying, "The plaintiff received a reduced salary from the time of his demotion until he was discharged," and "If the disposition is canceled, he can be considered to receive compensation for the financial disadvantage." He continued, "In some of the plaintiff's remarks, he mentioned the names of the victims and committed sexual insults. The degree of misconduct cannot be said to be light," but added, "Considering that he committed it only once in the presence of soldiers, the most severe disciplinary action, demotion, is excessive." He added, "It violates the principle of proportionality." Heo Seong-guk, a lawyer at the law firm Daeryun who represented Mr. A, explained, "The disciplinary committee determined that there were aggravated grounds for reasons such as 'severe sexual humiliation' and 'multiple harassment at the same opportunity,'" adding, "However, since Mr. Reporter Seohyun Lee (sunshine@kyeonggi.com)[View full article] A soldier who insulted his superior in front of his colleagues was demoted... Law “Excessive Disposition” (Shortcut) 2026-05-14T03:09:52.689Z https://www.daeryunlaw.com/en/broadcast/5774 “Investment for the next relationship with customers” Pay attention to whether there will be a change in the industry practice of leaving it only in the hands of law firms. On the 20th, Daeryun Law Firm declared the introduction of the ‘Litigation Quality Assurance System’, the first domestic law firm to do so. He also added that the 'Daeryun Member Guarantee System', which allows refunds at any time if you are not satisfied with the membership service, will be implemented. Attention is being paid to whether Daeryun's move will bring about a change in the industry's practice of leaving cases to law firms until the results are obtained. In an interview with Newsis on the same day, Daeryun CEO Kim Kook-il emphasized, "The emphasis of this system is on guarantees, not refunds." CEO Kim commented, "It means that we have not simply left open the possibility of a refund, but have objectively inspected the quality of legal services and established a system to institutionalize it." Next, a Q&A with CEO Kim Kuk-il. - Please briefly explain the litigation quality assurance system. "Literally, we will take responsibility for the legal services provided by Daeryun. We promise professional case performance, transparent procedures, and faithful communication, and have designed a structure to take responsibility in a reasonable manner if these standards are not met." This means that if the client expresses dissatisfaction with the legal service, immediate action will be taken to ensure that the client is satisfied. If the client is still dissatisfied, the fee will be refunded. If the necessary procedures for performing the work, such as establishing a response strategy and writing an opinion, have been completed, a minimum deduction will be made according to the degree." - What is the reason for introducing it for the first time in the industry? "In the domestic law firm market, legal services have always been provided unilaterally until the client takes charge of the case. It was a structure in which everything had to be left to the law firm. Even if the client did not like the execution process, there was virtually nothing that could be done, so there were quite a few cases where some clients who had entrusted the case to another law firm complained of damages, saying, "They were unilaterally denied a refund." Daeryun believes that this irresponsible reality is weakening the trust of the entire domestic legal market. This in itself gives clients confidence in the quality of legal services and psychological stability at the same time.” - Recently, controversy over refunds has continued in the legal world. Lawyer groups also took issue with some law firms' refund policies and hinted at sanctions. Can it be seen as a system that takes this atmosphere into consideration? "No. Daeryun has been conscious of issues related to refunds for a long time and has been seeking ways to respond. Until now, the industry has considered the issue of refunds between law firms and clients as a 'conflict between private persons'. It was viewed as a civil matter. There were also no guidelines at the bar association level related to refund regulations. Daeryun also went through trial and error. In the end, it thought that 'customers' should be the center, and this time, We have established our own principles and stipulated a structure of responsibility." - How can we specifically request a refund? "When a request for a refund is received from a client, the team in charge first checks the progress of the case and calculates the deductible based on pre-established standards. In addition, after the refund process is completed, we will begin a detailed analysis to avoid repeating the same mistake. "It may be a burden on management. However, in the long term, it is considered an investment in the next relationship with the customer, which creates a virtuous cycle that leads to re-requests and recommendations. Above all, the goal is to achieve systematic quality control to the extent that refunds are rare. "The purpose of this system is not refunds. Daeryun's ultimate goal is to establish a structure that does not require refunds, and clients can entrust their cases with that trust. “That is the goal of the Litigation Quality Assurance System.” Reporter Baek Jae-hyeon (itbrian@newsis.com)[View full article] Kim Kuk-il, CEO of Daeryun Law Firm, which introduced Korea’s first litigation quality assurance system [Interview] (Shortcut) 2026-05-04T07:44:50.506Z https://www.daeryunlaw.com/en/broadcast/5773 A man in his 30s who was handed over to the prosecution on charges of opening the common front door and visiting the victim after opening the common front door and visiting the victim's residence was cleared of charges. On the 2nd of last month, the Busan District Prosecutors' Office decided not to indict Mr. A, a man in his 30s who was sent on charges of trespassing. Mr. A entered the apartment through the common front door on two occasions in August and went to the front of the victim B's house. He was accused of visiting. Mr. B claimed that Mr. A came to threaten him even though he had expressed his refusal several times. On the other hand, Mr. A denied the charges. I sent a text message to Mr. B before the visit and explained that I intended to meet him for the purpose of conversation, not threats. Mr. A claimed, “I went to the residence of Mr. B to resolve misunderstandings and express his thoughts face-to-face with Mr. B’s family,” and that “the victim did not clearly express his intention to refuse by actively communicating with him until just before the visit.” The prosecution ruled that Mr. A was not guilty. The prosecution said, “The suspect entered through the common front door by calling the household rather than entering a password,” and added, “Considering the fact that the victim came down in the elevator with the suspect or the suspect attempted to enter the victim’s house, it is difficult to say that there was an intention or inception of the home invasion.” Kim Jin-won, an attorney at law firm Daeryun who represented Mr. “It must be based on behavior,” he said. “He sincerely explained that Mr. A’s behavior was not an abnormal method of access.” Digital Content Team[View full article] “Household call, not abnormal entry”… Man in his 30s acquitted of home invasion charges (Click here) 2026-05-13T04:10:20.064Z https://www.daeryunlaw.com/en/broadcast/5772 Daeryun Law Firm is the first domestic law firm to introduce the ‘Litigation Quality Assurance System’ and begin providing responsible legal services. In addition, it announced on the 20th that it has implemented the 'Daeryun Members Guarantee System', which allows refunds at any time if you are not satisfied with the membership service, and has started operating the so-called 'double guarantee system'. The 'Litigation Quality Guarantee System' is a system that takes immediate corrective action if the client expresses dissatisfaction during the course of the case, and refunds the fee if the dissatisfaction is not resolved. It is considered an unprecedented attempt in the domestic legal market in that the law firm itself guarantees the quality of legal services. The purpose is to guarantee the quality of legal services, secure customer trust by establishing a system that allows immediate response and even refunds in the event of customer complaints, and spread a culture of responsibility in legal services. Daeryun explained that it has designed a structure that takes responsibility in a reasonable way if the three standards of professional case performance, transparent procedures, and faithful communication are not met. Daeryun Kim Kuk-il, CEO of Daeryun, said, "Daeryun has been aware of the problem related to refunds for a long time and has been seeking ways to respond. As a worker in the same industry, we are concerned about the recent behavior of some law firms, such as lack of communication and non-refundability after 3 days," and added, "We have established our own responsibility structure under the principle that the customer should be the center of legal services." He explained, “We have stipulated it and prepared institutional supplementary measures.” In addition, Daeryun operates a separate team in charge of refunds, and when a request for a refund is received from a client, it checks the progress of the case and calculates the deductible amount according to the standards. The plan is to simplify the process as much as possible to reduce the inconvenience of the client, while analyzing the cause after the refund to reflect it in improving service quality. CEO Kim said, "There may be some cost burden in the short term, but in the long term, it is an investment that builds customer trust." “The ultimate goal is to create an environment where law firms can provide a level of service that leaves no room for doubt and where clients can entrust their cases with trust,” he said.

Startup common sense that I would like to share with doctor entrepreneurs dreaming of starting a startup (1) The need to improve your understanding of technology If you are preparing to start a business in the digital healthcare field,, Acquiring basic programming knowledge is recommended..

Most of the crimes that occur locally are controlled by Chinese criminal organizations. They are committing crimes in the form of online fraud. Romance scams are one of the crimes they commit and have recently been spreading rapidly in Korea. ◆ “I thought it was love”… Romance scam damage amounted to 84.7 billion won in 8 months According to the National Police Agency on the 19th, romance scam damage increased rapidly from 1,265 cases and 67.5 billion won in February to December last year to 1,357 cases and 84.7 billion won in January to August this year. In terms of damage, it increased by more than 25%, exceeding last year's total in just eight months. There are various ways to build trust before committing a crime. They use religion to make the relationship feel like fate by saying, “God knows everything,” or they make the relationship special and valuable by saying, “I will be loyal to you” or “I will not disappoint you.” Ask personal and thoughtful questions, such as “How is your husband’s health?” It is about creating the perception that you are not just a conversation partner, but that you ‘understand’. There are many ways to extort money. “Terrorists have come to attack my camp. I need money,” “I want to come to you as soon as possible. Please give me the money needed to enter the country,” and “There is a good investment place, so I will introduce it to you.” As it is a crime based on trust, victims sometimes experience aftereffects such as shame, self-blame, and social phobia after learning of the damage. In some cases, people hesitate to report because it is difficult to state the facts of the damage. ◆ “If you hide it because you’re embarrassed, you won’t be able to find the damages”… How to respond to romance scams according to experts Experts advised that if you have become a victim of a romance scam, you should respond immediately. The first thing you need to do is freeze your account. Lawyer Shin Yong-hoon (Daeryun Law Firm) said, "You must contact the bank of the account you transferred money from and immediately suspend the use of the account. Since the account in question often has a Buddhist or canon account holder and money is withdrawn quickly, you must request prompt action from the bank." Evidence to be submitted to the investigative agency must include deposit details and conversation details exchanged with the other party. Attorney Dong-Hyeon Oh (New Royer Law Office) explained, “You can check the transaction confirmation or transfer confirmation on the banking app, and you can also obtain it directly from the bank,” adding, “You can submit the transfer details and the text messages or contact details exchanged with the other party of the romance scam to the investigative agency.” Attorney Shin added, “In a fraud case, what matters is what I was deceived into giving money to.” We must also be careful of additional damage that takes advantage of the victim's psychology. Attorney Oh emphasized, “There are cases where people are encouraged to make additional deposits by saying, ‘If you deposit the fee, the money can be refunded.’ It is best to cut off communication with the perpetrator of the romance scam, but even if it is difficult, you should never comply with the other party’s demands.” What is more serious is that the victim may become involved in the crime. Among the cases handled by Attorney Oh, there was one where the victim of a romance scam became an accomplice in a voice phishing crime. They took the victim's bankbook name and password, saying, "To recover the damage, you need the bankbook name." This victim unknowingly became a perpetrator involved in a voice phishing crime. Attorney Oh said, "Romance scam gang members do not only commit one crime, so they can lead victims to become accomplices. In addition to money, they should not hand over information that only the individual knows, such as name and bank account password." Prompt reporting of damage was also emphasized. Attorney Shin emphasized, "If you hesitate to report due to shame, the probability of recovering damages decreases even more. If you do not even report, the victim has no choice but to bear the entire damage." Attorney Oh said, "Damages may be recovered through criminal charges and, in some cases, civil lawsuits."[View full article] [Fraud crime on the rise] ㉓Romance scams ‘This is how we should respond’… “Quick reporting, account suspension, securing evidence” (Shortcut) 2026-05-13T22:45:41.537Z https://www.daeryunlaw.com/en/broadcast/5769 Defendant was found not guilty for "contacting while moving the parking payment kiosk" and "touching the victim by getting caught in her bag" A man in his 50s who was put on trial for molesting a woman who was paying at a parking lot kiosk was acquitted. On the 17th of last month, the Gwangju District Court found A, a man in his 50s, not guilty on charges of forcible assault. Mr. A was accused of touching the body of a woman, B, who was standing in front of a parking payment kiosk machine in a supermarket parking lot in Gwangju last year. Yes. Mr. A denied the charges. He had problems with his physical movements due to a chronic illness he had been suffering from, and he claimed that he accidentally bumped into him while he was moving when Mr. B, who was paying his bills, told him to use the machine next to him. He also emphasized that there were many people around at the time of the incident and that he had no reason to commit such a crime in a situation where his spouse was also with him. The court found Mr. A not guilty. The court said, "When looking at the CCTV footage of the scene, it can be confirmed that the defendant's arm was caught in the bag the victim was carrying and that the defendant's body came into contact," but added, "It cannot be concluded that the defendant touched with the intention of molestation." He added, "The defendant's spouse was very close by, and it is difficult to say that he committed the crime of forcible molestation immediately after talking to the victim in a situation where many people were passing by." Daeryun Law Firm, which represented Mr. A. Attorney Kim Seong-ik explained, "In order to establish a crime of forcible molestation, there must be proof beyond a reasonable doubt that there was an intention to commit molestation. Mr. A demonstrated that there was no intention by emphasizing that he did not intentionally approach Mr. B but was moving to settle the account."[View full article] A man in his 50s molested a woman who was paying her bills in a parking lot... What is the court decision? (Shortcut) 2026-05-03T03:34:19.776Z https://www.daeryunlaw.com/en/broadcast/5768 A woman in her 50s who was accused of embezzling the property of her sister, who was suffering from cancer, was cleared of the charges by the prosecution. According to the legal community on the 17th, the Jeonju District Prosecutors' Office decided not to indict A, a woman in her 50s, who was sent on charges of theft and fraud on the 22nd of last month. In December of last year, Ms. A transferred assets worth 120 million won, including the deposits of her sister, B, who was suffering from cancer, to her own and a third party's account. He was accused of stealing bribes. The accuser was the husband of Mr. B. Mr. A denied the charges. Mr. A stated that he only followed the wishes of his older sister, Mr. B, who entrusted him with all matters related to her property. Person A said, “My sister’s husband is an alcoholic and has a lot of business debt, so she relied on me a lot.” Regarding the reason why the money was deposited 15 times into the account of someone other than a family member, he added, "We discussed it at the beginning because there are gift tax issues if the money is deposited at once." The prosecution decided not to indict Mr. A. The prosecution said, "There is no dispute that the suspect transferred the money in the deceased's account to several people during the funeral period," and added, "The suspect took the lead in handling the deceased's overall property, including the deposit issue for rent, during his lifetime, and in a will-type video, he said, “Given the fact that the deceased mentioned entrusting the suspect with all distribution of assets, there is insufficient evidence to admit the charge,” he said. Attorney Lee Ha-neul of Daeryun Law Firm, who represented Mr. A, said, “Mr. A faithfully explained that he had no intention of stealing the property by supporting the deceased’s medical expenses and presiding over the funeral as a resident,” and added, “It is good to actively express to the court that the crime of theft cannot be established because the deceased had a clear intention to delegate.” “We were able to get results,” he explained.

On the 11th of last month, the 11th Civil Division of the Incheon District Court announced that it ruled in favor of the plaintiff company A in the 'suit to confirm the existence of a rental contract relationship' filed by cafe operator A against the Incheon Tourism Organization. The case dates back to 2023. Company A signed a 10-year lease agreement with the Incheon Tourism Organization to move into a tourist facility in Incheon. The terms of the contract included a clause to pay one year's rent in advance at the beginning of each year. However, contrary to expectations, as the number of visitors did not meet expectations, Company A ran into financial difficulties and was unable to pay rent last year. Accordingly, the Corporation sent a proof of contents to Company A early this year, urging Company A to pay rent. The proof of contents also included information that the contract would be terminated due to late payment. It was based on the clause in the contract that said, ‘If the monthly rent arrears reach 3 months, the contract can be terminated.’ The current Commercial Building Lease Protection Act stipulates that the landlord can terminate the contract when the tenant's rent arrears reach three periods. Company A immediately protested. It was argued that it was unfair to agree to pay rent at once on a ‘yearly basis’ and then calculate the contract termination conditions ‘on a monthly basis.’ In the end, Company A filed a lawsuit to confirm that the lease agreement was still valid. The court ruled in Company A’s favor. The court pointed out, "While the contract stipulated to pay rent on a yearly basis, the standard for termination in case of late payment was set at 3 months, which in itself is disadvantageous to the lessee." “Therefore, the provision for cancellation of late payments is ineffective, so it cannot be said that the rental contract was legally terminated due to the proof of contents sent by the Corporation,” the ruling said. Attorney Kim Seong-chan of Daeryun Law Firm, who represented Company A, said, “The reason for termination in the contract only stated ‘if the rent arrears amount to three periods under the Commercial Building Lease Protection Act,’” and “during the trial, ‘if the rent was to be paid on a yearly basis, He explained, “By actively asserting that ‘the rent is for 3 years,’ we were able to win the case after being recognized as a contract that was unfavorable to the lessee.” Reporter Hwang Jeong-won (jwhwang@mt.co.kr)[View full article] “I’m three months behind on rent, so please vacate the store”… When I looked at the contract, it was ‘invalid’ (Shortcut) 2026-05-14T03:53:35.610Z https://www.daeryunlaw.com/en/broadcast/5758 A middle school student who was subject to community service disciplinary action for group cyberbullying in a group messenger chat room filed a lawsuit to cancel the disposition and won. On the 10th of last month, the Daegu District Court ruled in a lawsuit filed by middle school student A against the head of the Uljin Office of Education in Gyeongsangbuk-do to cancel the school violence disciplinary action, saying, “The defendant should cancel the 6 hours of community service imposed on the plaintiff.” Student A, along with students from the same school in a messenger chat room last year, defamed Person B by swearing at him and spreading false information. For this reason, it was referred to the School Violence Measures Review Committee. The Office of Education, which investigated the incident, ordered Person A to perform 6 hours of community service. Person A, who objected to this order, filed an administrative lawsuit. He said that he had never sworn and that he only passively participated without understanding the context of the chat room. In addition, it was claimed that the Office of Education did not specifically specify 'acts recognized as school violence' in the process of imposing community service. The Office of Education refuted this. This is because Group A agreed with the words of other assailants and went along with the cyber bullying of Group B. It was also emphasized that the actions subject to review were specifically indicated during the school violence committee notification process. The court ruled in favor of Student A. The court said, "It is difficult to say that the plaintiff's comments in the chat room amount to insults that could lower the social evaluation of the victim student," and added, "They are merely passive and incidental remarks such as striking back or ending the conversation, and cannot be seen as spreading actual false information or making comments criticizing the victim." However, the court said. Regarding the claim that the reason for the disposition was not specified, he did not accept it, saying, "The plaintiffs attended the school violence committee and fully stated their opinions, and during this process, they would have been able to fully know the basis and reason for the community service disposition." Attorney Jeon Hyeong-oh of the Daeryun Law Firm, who represented Mr. A, said, "When reviewing defamation or insults that constitute school violence under the School Violence Prevention Act, it is necessary to fully review whether or not they have performance, which is a requirement under the criminal law." He added, "The remarks made by Mr. A in the chat room are necessary." “Regardless of whether it meets the criminal requirements, such as insult or defamation, it is not satisfied,” he explained.

According to data from Nice Credit Rating, trade receivables of major domestic construction companies increased from KRW 18.4 trillion at the end of 2021 to KRW 33.8 trillion in the first half of this year. This is an 83.5% increase in just three years. The increase in receivables is not limited to the construction industry. Amid complex external variables such as economic recession, supply chain instability, and changes in the global situation, the risk of payment recovery is increasing across industries such as manufacturing, distribution, and service industries. From a corporate perspective, debt collection is an issue that goes beyond securing money through collection and is directly related to liquidity management, financial soundness, and even business continuity. If debt collection fails, the financial structure will be shaken and partners, subcontractors, and even financial institutions will be hit like dominoes. Therefore, debt collection should be understood as a management strategy for the survival of a company. The problem is that if collection is delayed or fails, even if it is recorded as an asset in the financial statements, no actual inflow of funds occurs, which has a negative impact on the overall cash flow of the company. When cash inflow is blocked, companies rely on short-term borrowing to make up for insufficient liquidity, which also increases interest costs. Increased costs hinder profitability and ultimately lead to worsening financial indicators, leading to a downgrade in credit rating. As a result, it can fall into a vicious cycle in which additional external financing becomes difficult. To solve this problem, it is necessary to initiate a debt collection process, but if the legal process is not followed, not only will it be subject to criminal punishment, but it can also cause fatal damage to the company's credibility and image. Therefore, it is of utmost importance to approach it in a due process and strategic manner within the legally permitted scope. It starts with the process of notifying the obligation to fulfill the debt through proof of contents, and then secures rights through a payment order application or civil lawsuit. If you win the lawsuit, you can attempt actual recovery through compulsory execution if necessary. If the debtor has already entered rehabilitation or bankruptcy proceedings, he or she must participate in dividend payments and exercise his or her rights. At the same time, it is necessary to strive for proactive risk prevention to reduce the risk of debt generation from the beginning. First, at the contract stage, it is a good idea to detail the payment deadline, late interest, and measures to be taken in the event of a dispute. If the transaction amount is large or the project is carried out over a long period of time, preparations must be made to organize advance payments, interim payments, and balances, distribute risks through prepayment, and minimize losses in the event of receivables. A company's survival ultimately comes from cash flow. And the first step to maintaining this trend is to thoroughly manage receivables without neglecting them. Receivables left unattended at this moment may return as a crisis tomorrow. In today's economic environment of prolonged uncertainty, stable asset management will soon become a decisive factor in determining the future of a company.

According to the legal community on the 13th, the 1st Criminal Division of the Eastern Branch of the Busan District Court sentenced Mr. A, in his 50s, to three years in prison on the 12th of last month on charges of quasi-rape. In addition, he was ordered to complete a 40-hour sexual violence treatment program and to be restricted from employment at child and youth-related institutions for three years. Mr. A was indicted on charges of adultery with Mr. B, a junior colleague at work, who fell asleep after taking sleeping pills on several occasions since 2021. After learning of Mr. A's crime, Mr. B forgave Mr. A several times, but as the same thing continued to happen again, he eventually filed a complaint with the investigative agency. Mr. A denied the charges, saying that Mr. B was not in a state of incapacity to resist and that they had entered into a relationship after agreement. At the same time, he claimed that there was a possibility that the complaint was false, saying that he continued to work with Mr. B even after the incident and had regular conversations with him. Although he was acquitted by the police and prosecutors, he appealed and the trial began. The court did not acknowledge Mr. A's claim. The court ruled, “If you look at the content of the conversation between Mr. A and Mr. B, you can only see the content that could have been exchanged as part of a business relationship, and there is nothing to judge that they maintained a romantic relationship. The probative value of the victim, B’s statement, cannot be rejected based solely on the fact that they worked together for a while after filing the complaint.” At the same time, it ruled, “Although Mr. B has protested several times, there is no evidence that they had a consensual relationship, so it can be said that Mr. A committed the crime after recognizing that Mr. B was asleep.” The court explained the reason for sentencing, saying, “We took into account the fact that Mr. A’s guilt was heavy as the crime occurred several times over two years, and that he did not seriously reflect on the crime.” Attorney Jang Eun-min of Daeryun Law Firm, who represented Mr. B, said, “It has been a long time. “Mr. B’s response may have been insufficient due to the fact that he was the victim of several sexual crimes by Mr. A, whom he knew, but the major parts of the statement were consistent and there were no contradictions, so since Mr. A was Mr. B’s boss, he had no choice but to maintain a close relationship for the sake of making a living, and the credibility of the statement was proven by proving the specific and overall context, such as the situation in which he asked for forgiveness after committing the crime.” Busan reporter Jeong Cheol-wook[View full article] A man in his 50s commits adultery with a co-worker who fell asleep after taking sleeping pills...

The Uijeongbu District Prosecutors' Office reported on Mr. A, a 30-year-old beauty salon owner in his 30s, who was transferred on charges of damage to property and obstruction of business on the 18th of last month. A decision was made not to indict. Mr. A was accused of taking a tablet PC containing customer information of Mr. B, a nail shop manager who was in his hair salon, without permission and deleting the information in January. Mr. A denied the charge. It was claimed that the tablet PC in question was a public item and not Mr. B's personal property. They refuted that the reason customer information was deleted was because Mr. B opened a new nail shop near the beauty salon and used the existing business name. Mr. A said, “Mr. B was siphoning off our store’s customers to his new store and ignoring legitimate requests to correct the theft of the business name, so we were forced to delete the information.” The prosecution ruled that Mr. A was not guilty. The prosecution explained the reason for non-indictment by saying, “In the contract written by the two people, there is a clause that says, ‘All customer information managed at the end of the contract will be handed over to Mr. A.’” and “Considering that Mr. B was also aware of this clause, it is difficult to say that the deleted customer information belongs to Mr. B.” Attorney Heo Seong-guk of Daeryun, a law firm representing Mr. A, said, “For a crime of property damage to be established, there must be a perception that another person’s property is being infringed.” “Rather, we actively explained that it was Mr. B who violated the contractual confidentiality obligation,” he said.

It is evaluated as a decision that goes beyond a simple financial dispute and directly exposes the problem of structural transparency in the franchise industry.. Starting from this ruling, franchisors must prioritize legal risk management and the establishment of a trust-based management system rather than short-term profits.. "There was a customary agreement" The difference in franchise fee, which blocks the source of logic, is the amount taken by the franchisor in excess of the wholesale price when supplying raw and subsidiary materials., That means delivery margin.. Originally, the franchisor could designate a specific supplier to the franchise for reasons of unifying quality and improving logistics efficiency., If margin is acquired during this process, it is legally considered a type of franchise fee..This is already specifically defined in the Enforcement Decree of the Franchise Business Act.. In the information disclosure statement, it is also a regulation to specify the ratio of the average difference in franchise money per franchise to sales.. However, in this ruling, the court "The difference in franchise fee is not a simple distribution margin, but a franchise fee that requires contractual agreement."He drew a clear line, saying. There are no relevant provisions in the franchise agreement., If the franchisee did not know of its existence, it would be clear unfair profit.. For a long time, the franchisor included the difference in franchise fee in the price of raw and subsidiary materials.. However, the court's judgment is that if there is no clause or individual agreement to justify this, it is unfair enrichment.. The court's ruling "A contractual agreement is not established solely through the disclosure of information."This section has great significance to the industry as a whole.."There was an implied agreement in long-standing trading practices."This is because it fundamentally blocks the logic of the franchise headquarters.. Collecting the franchise fee difference without the franchisee's clear knowledge or consent is no longer a practice but has become a violation of the law.. Even if the name is changed due to transportation costs, management costs, etc., if proof is lacking, it is considered the difference in franchise fee.. This ruling sends a structural warning to the franchise industry.. The key points that franchisors should keep in mind regarding franchise difference are as follows:.① Strengthening the obligation to specify in the franchise agreement : 2024year 7month 3The revised Franchise Business Act includes essential information in the contract. 'Supply price calculation method'includes. This means going beyond simple price disclosure and clearly presenting the margin structure and calculation basis.. If this is not recorded or handled opaquely, there is a high possibility that it will lead to an unfair enrichment lawsuit..② Exemption is not possible through information disclosure alone. : Registration of information disclosure statement is merely an administrative procedure.. the court 'Provision of an information disclosure statement does not imply consent from the franchisee.'I decided. If there is a discrepancy between the information disclosure statement and the contract, the court will give priority to the franchisor's liability..③ Non-recognition of customary/implied consent : Considering the franchisee's weak bargaining power, the court ruled that the franchisee's 'implied agreement' do not accept the claim. In order for the franchisor to maintain a legal structure, prior notice, written consent, and price disclosure are required. 3You must go through the steps. Franchise headquarters, than short-term profits 'faith' If the ruling is confirmed by the Supreme Court, it will have a significant impact on all future sales, accounting, and legal departments of franchise headquarters.. Practical countermeasures to reduce risk are as follows:.① Complete reexamination of supply contracts : Delivery contract structure with partner companies, Logistics cost calculation method, Margin rates must be transparently redesigned. Unclear contracts can serve as unfavorable evidence in future lawsuits..② Ensure consistency between contract and information disclosure statement : If the figures or expressions between the two documents are different, the court 'deliberate concealment'can be regarded as.③ Clarification of accounting structure : Separate accounting codes for each item such as logistics costs, management costs, and commissions. 'Bulk processing of supply prices' The practice must be eliminated.④ Institutionalization of franchise prior consent procedures : Supply price and margin basis must be documented and signed or electronic consent obtained from franchisees.⑤ Regular update of information disclosure statement : Information disclosure statements that differ from actual operations may be considered false information, so renewal is required every year.. This ruling is not limited to one brand, Pizza Hut Korea.. eating out, beauty, education, This is because most franchise industries, including services, have the same franchise structure.. In particular, franchisors make profits through delivery margins instead of franchise fees. 'Logistics-centric model'If you are running , you could take a direct hit..It is highly likely that the Fair Trade Commission's investigation standards will be strengthened.. If the difference in franchise fee is not specified in the contract or notified to the franchisee,, This means that it is not just a civil matter, but can also be grounds for administrative sanctions and fines..The essence of the franchise industry is not expansion, but 'faith'all. Franchisees disclose their profit structure transparently and, Only when trust with franchisees is restored will the foundation for sustainable growth be laid.. In that sense 'difference in franchise fee'is not just a financial item, but has become a barometer of legal risk and an indicator of brand reputation.. Designing a structure of trust before a structure of profit, That is the only way for the franchise industry to survive in the future..

In the world, artificial intelligence, digital asset norms, ESG expansion, visa issues, etc. are affecting society as a whole beyond the economy. In addition, the rise of Legal Tech is changing the trend of the global legal market. It is not just a problem for companies. Individuals preparing to work, study abroad, immigrate, and the general public making investments are all being affected. Legal issues such as visas, international taxes, and digital copyrights have already become part of our daily lives. The recent U.S. visa crisis remains a representative example showing how vulnerable not only large corporations but also individuals are to the unstable international legal environment. In this situation, Daeryun Law Firm established local law firms in New York and Washington, D.C. It is significant in that it is not a simple office expansion, but a local foundation and preparations to provide services through the ‘one firm system’ to global companies. Daeryun operates from its headquarters so that all branches can be managed within the headquarters system. Currently, it is designed so that you can receive the same quality of service no matter which office you visit at home or abroad, which is an important foundation for establishing the standardization and trust required by the global market. In addition, we are gaining experience by directly solving practical tasks such as complex documents and permits, recruiting local talent, and HR systems during the overseas expansion process. This is a process that goes beyond expanding legal services and accumulating know-how about the overall operation of an overseas law firm. It will also be important information and an asset for other domestic law firms seeking to expand overseas in the future. Pioneering a new path is never easy. There are many walls to overcome, such as differences in systems and culture, unexpected regulations, and differences in language and work methods. I do not think that the experience gained through this process is unique to Daeryun. We believe that it is an asset that the entire domestic legal community can utilize together, and that it can serve as a practical guide for other law firms and lawyers. We went through a lot of trial and error to expand overseas, and it took manpower, money, and time, but we plan to share all of this know-how with related industries. However, the efforts of private law firms alone are not enough. National support and the role of the Korean Bar Association are essential for domestic law firms to establish themselves in overseas markets and for lawyers to increase their international competitiveness. Supporting the establishment and operation of overseas law firms, nurturing talent in the fields of international disputes and investments, and expanding global networks are more urgent than ever. Major countries in the United States, Europe, and Asia are already fostering legal services as a strategic industry. If the domestic legal market is late in responding, the opportunity passes to competing countries. The domestic legal market has already been opened in stages through the implementation of the Korea-US FTA and the Foreign Legal Consultants Act. Currently, large global law firms are entering the market and expanding their influence on domestic companies and the private sector. According to a National Tax Service investigation last year, Korean companies paid a record 3.128 trillion won in legal service fees to foreign law firms in 2024. From this survey result alone, we can guess the extent of the imbalance in the domestic and international law firm markets. Therefore, the establishment of Daeryun's New York and Washington offices is only the beginning. Domestic legal tech companies are also actively exploring the global market through investment and overseas expansion. Artificial intelligence-based contract review, e-discovery solutions, and digital litigation platforms are already attracting attention in the Asian and North American markets and expanding cooperation models. Therefore, for these individual achievements to become assets to the entire Korean legal profession, institutional support from the Korean Bar Association and national-level policy and economic support are essential. The domestic legal profession must no longer remain domestic. When we compete fiercely and create opportunities on the international stage, the domestic legal market can open an ‘era of K-law’ that connects the success of K-culture and K-beauty.[View full article] [Contribution] K-Pop, K-Culture, Next is K-Law Firm Export (Go here) 2026-05-05T13:13:51.529Z https://www.daeryunlaw.com/en/broadcast/5737 The Ministry of Health and Welfare claims that it was an 'unlicensed medical practice' and the court sanctions the court, saying, "It is not an unlicensed medical practice under the Medical Service Act." A dentist who ordered hair growth pills for the purpose of taking them himself was suspended for 'unlicensed medical practice' and won a lawsuit. According to the legal community on the 9th, the 6th Division of the Seoul Administrative Court (Chief Judge Na Jin-i) filed a lawsuit against the Minister of Health and Welfare to revoke the suspension of his medical license by dentist A. On August 29, the Ministry of Health and Welfare ruled that the disposition should be canceled. Mr. A is a dentist who runs the New York Dental Clinic in Gangbuk-gu, Seoul. He purchased and used hair treatment twice in February and April 2021. In September of last year, the Ministry of Health and Welfare suspended Mr. A's dentist's license for one month and 15 days, saying he violated Article 27, Paragraph 1 of the old Medical Service Act. The provision stipulates that medical practitioners cannot practice medicine other than what they are licensed to do. Mr. A filed a lawsuit dissatisfied with this disposition. The court accepted Mr. A's argument that the dentist's purchase of hair growth medication and his own use cannot be regarded as an unlicensed medical practice as defined in Article 27, Paragraph 1 of the Medical Service Act. The court said that Mr. A's act was “in principle a medical practice,” but that “practicing medical treatment on oneself rather than on others is a personal area that has little to do with the risk that may occur to the life or body of others or general public health,” and that unlicensed treatment is unlicensed. It was ruled that it did not conflict with the purpose of regulating medical practice. In addition, citing the Supreme Court precedent that “Patients have the right to decide for themselves how to maintain their life and bodily functions and to choose medical treatment in accordance with the personal rights and the right to pursue happiness stipulated in Article 10 of the Constitution,” the court ruled, “There is no special basis to believe that patients are excluded from the right to perform medical treatment directly on themselves without the intermediary of medical professionals.” The court ruled, “The purpose and purpose of the medical law and the patient’s When interpreting the right to self-determination in a harmonious manner, it does not appear that the medical law intends to completely prohibit medical services performed on oneself by non-medical personnel,” he concluded. “For the same purpose, it is reasonable to believe that cases where medical practitioners perform medical services other than those licensed to them cannot be regulated as unlicensed medical practice.” Attorney Chang-min Jeong (12th bar exam) of Daeryun Law Firm, who represented Mr. A in this case, said, “Invasion of one’s own body is not subject to criminal punishment or He explained, “It was recognized that in order to be subject to regulation under public law, there must be special regulations such as the Narcotic Drugs Control Act.” The Ministry of Health and Welfare appealed, and this case was decided in the second trial.

There is a space for tired drivers to take a moment to catch their breath. It is a ‘drowsiness rest area’. Although it is a safety facility installed to prevent drowsy driving, it has recently been pointed out that it has become a source of accident risk and responsibility disputes. The safety space is a ‘liability blind spot’ and is especially vulnerable to drowsy driving and secondary accidents due to long-distance driving during the Chuseok holiday. According to the Korea Expressway Corporation, a total of 167 traffic accidents occurred during the Lunar New Year and Chuseok holidays over the past five years. Of these, 109 (65.3%) were accidents due to drowsiness or lack of attention. During the same period, a total of 13 people died in holiday traffic accidents, and three of them lost their lives in secondary accidents, which have a fatality rate more than six times higher than regular accidents. The problem is that sleepy rest areas, which are supposed to prevent such accidents, are becoming another danger zone. A sleepy rest area is classified as a temporary rest area rather than a simple parking lot. Many places have structural problems such as short and sharp entry/exit roads, unclear internal movement lines, and insufficient lighting, so collision accidents occur frequently during entry, reversal, and cutting in. In fact, accidents involving entering and reversing vehicles frequently occur in sleepy rest areas during the holiday season. In this case, even if the victim raises structural problems with the facility, in most cases, driver negligence is considered a greater fault during the dispute process. Currently, the Ministry of Land, Infrastructure and Transport and the Korea Expressway Corporation are responsible for managing highway drowsiness rest areas. However, unless a serious defect in facility management is clearly proven, the responsibility of the management entity for accidents within the shelter is often limited. Because most accidents are the result of driver negligence, victims are easily caught up in liability disputes without proper compensation. Lawyers specializing in traffic accidents point out that there is a blind spot in victim protection. Kim Min-soo, a lawyer at Daeryun Law Firm, explained, “If a defect in the installation or management of a drowsy rest area is the cause of the accident, the ‘installation and management of the installation and management of the installation can be held responsible’ under civil law. However, the reality is that in most cases, the driver’s negligence is considered first, so it is difficult for the management entity to be held responsible.” Expert “Facility improvement and guidance must be strengthened.” Heo Eok, director of Gachon University's Safety Education Training Center, said, "As drowsy rest areas are managed by the Korea Expressway Corporation, they should categorize accident cases and notify drivers, and be equipped with sufficient safety devices such as sidewalk dividers and speed bumps." He also suggested, "We also need a system that provides guidance on precautions when entering and immediately shares information in the event of an accident." “We also provide on-site safety management and processing support in the event of an accident.” However, he drew the line, saying, “Dispute resolution, including calculation of fault ratio, is the responsibility of the insurance company.”[View full article] Accident at a ‘drowsy rest area’ on the way home for Chuseok… Who is responsible?

However, due to employment difficulties and economic pressure, people are easily exposed to the temptation of employment, loans, and financial benefits.. In fact, there are many cases where they set up a fake company, recruit applicants through employment platforms, and then use young people as delivery vehicles or collectors..Even though social awareness about voice phishing has increased, why is the actual damage soaring?? First of all, economic difficulties can be cited as a reason.. When an offer like a low-interest loan comes in, my judgment momentarily becomes clouded.. here is the organization ‘gaslighting’and isolates the victim. Creating fear by impersonating an authoritative organization, It makes you cut off contact with family and acquaintances and blocks outside help..

Recently, the victim has cut off contact with the outside world and is staying at a lodging facility. ‘self-confinement’It is in the same context.Are there any cases where gaslighting led not only to financial loss but also to physical and mental damage?? Among the actual cases 20There was an incident where a female client was deceived into handing over not only personal information and money, but also a nude video of herself, saying she would be given a loan.. After a long conversation with a member of the organization, I gave in to cajoling and threats and delivered the video., Afterwards, I suffered threats to spread the word and became completely subordinate to the organization.. A Daepo bank account was opened and a SIM card was opened in the client's name, and he was eventually tried as the perpetrator..# Anyone can fall victim to voice phishing, so the first thing you need to do is?

Evolving Voice Phishing Techniques (Shortcut) 2026-05-10T06:17:15.735Z https://www.daeryunlaw.com/en/broadcast/5733 Daeryun Law Firm announced on the 2nd that it successfully completed a lecture on the theme of ‘Understanding Labor Cases’ for future lawyers at Sogang University Law School on the 30th. This lecture was prepared in accordance with the MOU signed between Daeryun and Sogang University Law School last year. Jeong Sang-hyeok, a lawyer at Daeryun Corporate Law Group (10th edition), introduced the outline, structure, and key issues of labor law under the theme of ‘Workers should know the law – A to Z of labor case practice.’ Attorney Jeong introduced on this day, “The essence of labor law is to protect workers who are relatively weak.” He explained, “Unlike civil law, which emphasizes free contracts, labor law presupposes an imbalance of power between employers and workers. For this reason, a one-sided mandatory provision that renders contract terms unfavorable to workers legally invalid acts as a general principle.” In general, when you sign a labor contract, you can think of yourself as agreeing to all the conditions, but the minimum standards guaranteed by law, such as minimum wage, severance pay, and annual leave, take precedence over the contract terms. Attorney Jeong emphasized, “Labor law is a ‘lifestyle law’ that can be used in any career. If you know the law, you can protect yourself in unfair situations.” In the lecture, Attorney Jeong explained the theory and also presented specific response strategies focusing on key issues that frequently arise in the actual field. It introduced practical cases such as bullying and sexual harassment in the workplace, various disciplinary actions such as dismissal and demotion, non-payment of wages and severance pay, and industrial accidents, and provided detailed guidance on legal relief procedures appropriate for each situation. In particular, he added practical advice, saying, “Issues that violate labor laws, such as non-payment of wages, can only be handled by reporting them to the Labor Office, which has a labor inspector with the status of a special judicial police officer, not to the police.” Daeryun Corporate Legal Group operates detailed centers in corporate consulting, corporate rehabilitation and bankruptcy, M&A, asset management, personnel and labor, and management rights disputes, providing legal services tailored to the characteristics of the case. Attorney Jeong said, “In this lecture, I looked at the institutional changes in the labor environment that workers will face and explained their importance from various perspectives,” and added, “I hope that this will serve as a milestone that provides direction to future legal professionals.” Reporter Jeong Cheol-wook[View full article] Seoul Shinmun - Daeryun Law Firm lectures on labor law to future lawyers at Sogang University (link) Lawleader - Daeryun, Sogang University Law School ‘Labor law lecture to protect my rights from part-time workers to new employees’ (link) 2026-05-06T14:50:07.349Z https://www.daeryunlaw.com/en/broadcast/5729 The U.S. Court of Appeals for the Federal Circuit (CAFC) ruled on August 29, local time, that the imposition of reciprocal tariffs under the International Emergency Economic Powers Act (IEEPA) was illegal. Last May, the Court of International Trade (CIT) completely invalidated the executive order based on IEEPA and banned its enforcement. In this appeal, the Federal Circuit equally recognized the illegality of drug tariffs and cross-tariffs. President Trump immediately appealed the Federal Circuit's ruling. And President Trump said, "This is the most important case among the U.S. Supreme Court cases," and "Our country has a chance to become incredibly rich again, but if we don't win this case, we could become incredibly poor again," and warned that trade agreements with other countries, including Korea, could be invalidated. Even if the Supreme Court rules that the reciprocal tariff measures are illegal, President Trump will continue to enforce Article 122 of the Trade Act, Article 232 of the Trade Expansion Act, and Article 338 of the Tariff Act. Experts believe that reciprocal tariffs can be replaced by other laws such as Article 301 of the Trade Act, so tariff imposition measures will continue during President Trump's term. Therefore, rather than expecting President Trump's tariff policy to be withdrawn, domestic export companies need to minimize damage with government support and at the same time re-establish export strategies in line with US tariff regulations. First, the HS code of the exported product must be accurately confirmed. Depending on the HS code of the exported product, it is determined whether it falls under the item-specific tariffs imposed on aluminum, steel, automobiles, and automobile parts, or is subject to reciprocal tariffs, so it must be confirmed. Also, the country of origin of the exported product must be confirmed. Origin is divided into 'preferential origin' for receiving preferential treatment such as FTA and 'non-preferential origin' for non-preferential purposes such as reciprocal tariffs. Since the purpose of classifying the country of origin is different, it should be noted that even if a product is determined to be a Korean product according to the FTA origin determination criteria, it may be judged as a Chinese product according to the US non-preferential origin determination criteria. Tariffs are calculated by multiplying the customs value of the imported goods by the tariff rate. In order to reduce tariffs, the tariff rate must be lowered or the taxable value must be lowered. Checking the HS code and country of origin of exported goods is to confirm the exact tariff rate. If it is difficult to lower the tariff rate due to changes in the supply chain, etc., measures to lower the taxable price should be considered. Currently, domestic export companies are lowering the export price by reducing the margin included in the export price to respond to the US tariff policy. However, caution is needed when arbitrarily adjusting the price because the U.S. Customs may view the adjustment as an abnormal discount and not recognize the import declaration price. So, what is a legal way to reduce the customs value? Unlike Korea, the United States calculates the taxable value based on FOB (Free on Board) price. In Korea, international transportation freight and insurance are taxed based on CIF (Cost, Insurance, Freight), but in the United States, which is based on FOB, international transportation freight and insurance are not included in the taxable price. Under U.S. customs law, when selling under EXW (Ex Works) conditions, if inland freight and other service costs incurred in the exporting country are not included in the price, they are not taxed as international transportation freight. In the case of sales under Incoterms other than EXW, the inland freight and other service costs of the exporting country are separately specified, and costs incurred after the product is placed with a carrier for export to the United States are considered international freight and are not taxed. If the relevant regulations are used, inland freight, terminal costs, forwarder costs, and document issuance costs incurred in Korea can be deducted from the taxable value when filing an import declaration in the United States, which will help reduce customs duties. In addition to the relevant regulations, the U.S. Customs Act stipulates costs that can be deducted from the taxable price, so domestic export companies need to review the costs included in the export price to see whether they can be deducted.

This can be interpreted as a significant increase in multi-damage fraud crimes such as multi-level marketing, voice phishing, and quasi-receipt investment. In particular, in the case of multiple fraud crimes, it was revealed that the amount of compensation increased by about 160% in one year from KRW 315.4 billion in 2023 to KRW 815.6 billion in 2024. Quasi-receipt activity refers to all fundraising activities that attract investment funds without obtaining permission or permission by law, and caution is required due to the large amount and scale of damage. In particular, because the boundary between ‘legal investment’ and ‘illegal investment’ is often vague, many people realize that they have been scammed only after the situation has occurred. Attorney Jeong-Hyun Yoon of Daeryun Law Firm, which specializes in the financial legal field, said that if you have been a victim of such a crime, “evidence must be secured quickly and an application for provisional seizure of the perpetrator’s property must be quickly made.” Below are related questions and answers. - What are the characteristics of ‘quasi-receipt acts’ and what are the general fraud crimes and punishments in the law? Is it different? ▲The crime of fraud requires the misappropriation of property profits through deceptive acts, but the act of quasi-receipt constitutes the act of raising funds from an unspecified number of people by promising to guarantee the principal without permission. Quasi-receipts are subject to imprisonment of up to 5 years or a fine of up to 50 million won. The crime of fraud is punishable by imprisonment for up to 10 years, and if the amount of misappropriation is more than 500 million won, the punishment is aggravated according to the Act on the Aggravated Punishment of Specific Economic Crimes. -If there are key characteristics or red flags that the general public can distinguish from legal investments. ▲Unauthorized companies promising ‘principal guarantee’ and ‘confirmed high profits’ at the same time are the key characteristics of illegal quasi-receipt activities. In addition, unclear business models, payment of allowances when attracting new investors, lack of permission from financial authorities, excessive use of celebrities' images, and inducement of additional investment after payment of profits are representative risk signals. -What is the first thing a victim should do when he or she finds out that he or she has been scammed by a similar receiving fraud, and is there a realistic way to get the investment back other than criminal charges? ▲ When damage occurs, evidence such as investment contracts and deposit details must be secured and a criminal complaint must be filed quickly. Separate from criminal punishment, a civil lawsuit for damages is necessary to recover damages. Applying for preservation measures such as provisional seizure or injunction to tie up the perpetrator's assets before litigation is a realistic way to recover from damage. -There are many new quasi-receipt practices these days, but what are the characteristics of these latest fraud methods? ▲The latest quasi-receipt acts have the characteristic of making it difficult to identify the true nature of the business by touting technical terms such as virtual assets, NFT (non-fungible tokens), and RWA (real-world assets). They usually use a method of creating a plausible homepage or white paper, attracting investment using listings on famous exchanges, and then setting a ‘lock-up’ period to tie up investors’ funds. It is also necessary to carefully examine cases where new members are invited to a group room via text or KakaoTalk, claiming that losses can be made up through YouTube or blogs. - There are times when the boundary between legal investment attraction and illegal quasi-receipt activities is vague, and to distinguish the difference between the two. ▲The clearest standard for distinction is the presence or absence of a ‘principal guarantee agreement’. While legal investments require notification of the possibility of loss of principal, quasi-receipt activities raise funds from an unspecified number of people by promising to guarantee principal. Additionally, legitimate investment brokerage companies are registered with financial authorities and are subject to management and supervision.

He is accused of stealing approximately 600 million won in the name of business funds from Mr. B, a moneylender, while he was unable to repay due to management difficulties. Mr. A denied the charge, saying, “I had sufficient ability to repay because I was generating significant sales through other personal businesses in addition to the company that was experiencing management difficulties,” and “I maintained a normal business relationship with Mr. B.” In addition, “During the course of financial transactions, I used a bank account in the name of a third party at Mr. B’s request, and money was continuously transferred through that account.” “I repaid it,” he said, adding, “If you add up all the transaction details on borrowed-name accounts, the amount was repaid much more than the loan amount.” The court accepted the claims of Mr. A and others and declared them not guilty. At the time of the indictment, Mr. A was running a private business and recording high profits, and most of the borrowed money seemed to have been spent on the private business, so the court ruled that it could be seen that he had the intention or ability to repay the loan. In addition, the fact that the financial transaction details became more complicated by using a borrowed-name account without accurate settlement during the transaction process also influenced the ruling. The court said, “It is difficult to rule out the possibility that repayment was made in this situation,” and “Looking at the past transactions, the defendants Considering that the victim was continuously repaid, it is difficult to say that there was an intention to deceive only with regard to the amount in question.” Attorney Park Jeong-gu of Daeryun Law Firm, who represented Mr. A, said, “Generally, fraud through repeated financial transactions builds trust and then gradually increases the borrowed amount and then stops repayment.” “I was able to do it,” he said.

According to the legal community on the 29th, the Western Branch of the Daejeon District Court ruled on the 20th of last month that the plaintiff lost in the lawsuit for damages filed by A, a man in his 50s, a translator, against another translator B. The case occurred in 2016 when A translated and published a classic Chinese philosophy book. It has begun. Mr. B, who published the same translation in 2004, pointed out the similarity in content and sued Mr. A for violating copyright law. After Mr. B raised the issue, Mr. A's publisher withdrew all of the books and stopped publishing them. However, the prosecution acquitted Mr. A on the grounds that it was difficult to acknowledge the similarities in the translation process. Accordingly, Mr. A filed a lawsuit demanding compensation of 50 million won, including royalties, reissue costs, and psychological damages, claiming that publication of the book was stopped because Mr. B threatened the publisher's representative. In this lawsuit, Mr. B denied the charges, saying that he never threatened the representative of Mr. A's publisher and only raised a legitimate issue. At the same time, Mr. A's publisher's representative refuted the problem, saying that he had acknowledged the problem, apologized, and stopped publication. The court accepted Mr. B's argument. The final decision, including the suspension of publication, was made by the representative of Mr. A's publisher, and based on the evidence submitted by Mr. A alone, it is difficult to say that Mr. B threatened him. Attorney Shin Min-soo of Daeryun Law Firm, who represented Mr. B, said, "Mr. A claimed that the cause of the damage was Mr. B's threats, but he proved that he did not threaten him by submitting as evidence the content of the phone call in which the publisher's representative acknowledged his mistake and apologized."

On the 29th, Cheongju Cheongwon Police Station in North Chungcheong Province decided not to send A, a man in his 30s, who was accused of driving his car about 10 meters while drunk on a road in Cheongju last July and hitting cars parked in front of him. Mr. A's blood alcohol content at the time was over 0.1%, which was at the level of license revocation. Mr. A denied the charge, saying that while he was sleeping to sober up, he turned over and unintentionally stepped on the accelerator. Mr. A explained, "Because I was intoxicated at the time, I did not even realize that I had stepped on the accelerator and the collision occurred." A police official explained, "It was not an accident that occurred while driving while drunk." "It is acknowledged that the suspect sat in the driver's seat after drinking and turned on the engine and lights, and in that state, the vehicle was pushed forward and hit the victim's vehicle," he said. "When checking the CCTV footage around the front black box site of the victim's vehicle, there are no circumstances showing that the suspect drove intentionally," he explained. Attorney Daeryun Dong-eun, a law firm representing Mr. A, said, "Driving under the Road Traffic Act means 'using it according to the original usage on the road.' “It only applies to cases of intentional driving,” he said. “In the case of Mr. A, he did not start the car to drive, but got into the car for the purpose of sobering up and sleeping, and we were able to lead to a non-transportation as it was revealed that it was the result of unconscious behavior, not intentional.”[View full article] I fell asleep while drunk and 3 cars crashed...

(Shortcut) 2026-05-10T06:35:27.110Z https://www.daeryunlaw.com/en/broadcast/5715 Crimes of small theft under 100,000 won have recently been on the rise again. After reaching a peak in 2009 during the global financial crisis, it has steadily decreased and recorded 40,583 cases in 2018, but after COVID-19, it gradually rose and recorded 107,138 cases last year, exceeding 100,000 cases again after 15 years. Since small-scale thefts occur so frequently, you may not consider the crime a big deal, but this is a wrong idea. Even if the amount of damage is small, small-scale theft is punished by the same legal standards as general theft. Theft is the act of illegally acquiring another person's property without the owner's consent. The core requirement for establishing a crime is that it must target ‘property’ owned or occupied by another person. Therefore, real estate that cannot be physically moved, such as land or buildings, is not an object of theft. In addition, the actor must have a clear intention to illegally acquire another person's property, that is, an ‘intent to acquire illegally.’ For example, even if you initially brought an item out of simple curiosity, if you later develop the desire to use or dispose of it for personal gain without intending to return it, this can also be considered a theft. The sentence varies depending on the specific method of the crime. The most basic type, simple theft, is punishable by up to 6 years in prison or a fine of up to 10 million won. If you break into another person's home at night and steal property, the crime of 'night-time home invasion and theft' is applied and you are punished more severely with up to 10 years in prison. In particular, in the case of habitual offenders, the punishment can be increased by up to one-half of the statutory penalty due to the serious nature of the crime. In addition, if a weapon is used or two or more people collude to commit a crime, a special theft can be committed and the person can be imprisoned for between 1 and 10 years. So, how should you respond if you are accused of theft due to a moment of mistake? The key to determining the sentence is to logically prove to the investigative agency and the court that there is a ‘sincere effort to recover from the damage’ and ‘there is no risk of recidivism.’ The most decisive mitigating factor is by far the ‘agreement with the victim.’ Since theft is not a crime of involuntary punishment, the agreement does not completely avoid punishment, but it has the greatest effect on lowering the sentence. Beyond simply reimbursing the value of the stolen items, it is common to attempt to reach a settlement with an amount that includes compensation for the victim's mental distress. If an agreement is reached, a non-punishment application form must be received and submitted stating that "the offender does not wish to be punished" to ensure a substantial reduction in sentence. However, because victims often refuse to communicate directly with the perpetrator, it is effective to politely convey the intention to reach an agreement through a lawyer. In addition to reaching an agreement with the victim, it is also important to show deep regret for one's mistakes. It is a good idea to submit a statement of reflection that contains the background that led to the crime, the pain the victim suffered as a result, and a specific pledge on how he or she will live in the future. In addition, the objective circumstances that warrant leniency must be proven with ‘sentencing materials.’ Petitions written by family members or acquaintances serve as good evidence to show that the defendant is a conscientious member of society. In addition, if the crime was committed due to difficulties in making a living, you can appeal for leniency by submitting documents related to your debt or unemployment, and if it was due to a psychiatric problem such as impulse control disorder, you can submit a relevant medical certificate and treatment history. Attorney Lee Ki-jun of Daeryun Law Firm said, "In the end, the reduction of the sentence for theft is centered on three axes: recovery from damage, serious reflection, and prevention of repeat offenses. Even if it is small-scale theft, it is a serious crime that can result in a prison sentence if you respond laxly. Therefore, the case “Receiving the assistance of a professional lawyer from the beginning and systematically responding from agreement with the victim to preparing sentencing materials is a wise way to prevent a momentary mistake from becoming a big stain on your life.” Global Epic CP Lee Soo-hwan / lsh@globalepic.co.kr To reach a settlement on the rapidly increasing 'modern-day Jean Valjean' petty theft crime (Go here) 2026-05-14T00:22:38.500Z https://www.daeryunlaw.com/en/broadcast/5711 Attorney Daeryun Lee Il-hyung " FDA, AIand IoT Strengthening regulations on medical devices-Strict marketing regulations""FDA Permit process is complex but predictable...Compliance investment is a necessity, not an option" Contributors and Pharmacy Newspaper 「medical device」We planned a series related to. In this article, we will look at the legal regulations and entry strategies of domestic medical device companies when entering the U.S. market.. 1. Recently, the rush of Korean medical device companies to enter the U.S. continues.. K-Following beauty success K-This is because the potential for global expansion of medical technology is attracting attention.. However, when we meet companies preparing to enter the U.S. market, FDA Many people are confused when faced with the complexity of the permitting process and various entry strategy options.. The contributor recently held consultations with dozens of companies through a COEX consultation booth event., Recognizing that most of the questions the working-level staff were curious about overlapped, we felt the need to organize key points.. In this contribution FDA We would like to introduce content that may be helpful to practitioners, focusing on the permitting process and proven entry strategies.. 2. FDA Permit Procedure, America is trickier than you think FDAAccording to the risk posed to patients, medical devices are Class I, II, IIIDivide and manage into. Because the permit procedures required for each grade are different,, Above all, the first hurdle is to find out exactly what grade your product falls into..Class I The product may seem relatively simple, but, not really. mostly 510(k)is exempted, but FDA Facility registration and equipment list registration are required., Compliance with the quality system is also essential.. In particular, products that are classified as quasi-drugs or cosmetics in Korea may be treated as medical devices in the United States, so caution is required.. Class II This is the area that most product companies worry about.. 510(k)Equivalence with existing approved products must be proven through, The key here is appropriate Predicate Deviceis to find. Even products with the same function predicate device Permission may vary depending on selection.. FDA The review period is officially 90It's work, but, In reality, if you request additional data or go through a supplementary process, 4-6It usually takes months. Class III Product is the most demanding area. Fillers are a representative example., PMA(Pre-market approval)Large-scale clinical trial data is needed to receive. Minimum permit period 180It can take anywhere from one day to several years, so there is sufficient time, Must be approached with financial resources. 3. Direct payment or indirect payment?, That is the problem. The biggest concern for Korean medical device companies is their entry strategy.. It is largely divided into a direct payment method that sells directly to hospitals and a short payment method that uses distributors.. The biggest attraction of direct payment is profitability.. Since there are no distributor commissions, you can maximize your margins., You also have direct control over brand management and customer relationships.. Additionally, you can receive direct feedback from hospitals and medical staff, which is advantageous for improving products or identifying market trends.. However, the reality of direct payment is not easy.. A large initial investment is required to deploy sales personnel and build a logistics system throughout the United States.. The burden of understanding and responding to different regulations in each state is significant.. One large medical device company also attempted direct sales at first, but eventually switched to partnering with partners.. On the other hand, the biggest advantage of Gannap is quick market entry.. The initial investment burden is low as you can utilize already established distribution networks and customer relationships., Distributors are also responsible for complex regulations and logistics procedures.. However, profitability declines due to distributor commissions., The downside is that it is difficult to directly control brand management or customer relationships.. In case of short payment GPO(Group Purchasing Organization)me DistribuotrA representative method is to use. However, they are price competitive, product competitiveness, Because we attach great importance to supply stability, having sufficient competitiveness is a priority.. 4. Practical know-how found in success stories Looking at the cases of companies consulted by the contributor, several patterns are identified.. For products dealing with rare or unique diseases, direct delivery was advantageous.. This is because a direct approach is more effective in areas where patient numbers are limited and expertise is important.. On the other hand, general consumables or general-purpose medical devices were often cheaper..A medical device company was attempting direct delivery by establishing a U.S. corporation based on its differentiated technological capabilities as the world's first developer.. On the other hand, disposable medical device manufacturers chose a strategy of gradually expanding the market, starting with government bidding.. This is a method of expanding into the private market after gaining experience in the government market where information is relatively open and entry barriers are low.. 5. Latest regulatory trends, Points you shouldn't miss FDAIs AIand IoT Regulations on basic medical devices are being strengthened.. In particular, continuous learning AI For algorithms, the existing 510(k) A new regulatory framework is being developed as the system is difficult to manage.. Companies developing these products must carefully monitor regulatory changes.. Marketing regulations are becoming more stringent.. FDA Advertising for uses outside of the approved indications or claiming exaggerated effects may result in severe sanctions.. UDI(Unique Device Identifier)This is also a part that cannot be overlooked.. Class I Even if it is a product UDI Attachment and GUDID Registration is often required, You must understand the exact requirements in advance. 6. Conclusion and Recommendations The US medical device market is certainly attractive, but, Thorough preparation is essential for success. Above all, it is important to accurately understand the characteristics of your products and company capabilities and then select an appropriate strategy.. FDA The permitting process is a complex but predictable area.. Trial and error can be minimized if you prepare sufficiently in advance and get help from experts.. Especially in recent times where the regulatory environment is rapidly changing, investing in compliance has become a necessity rather than an option.. Korea’s medical device industry’s technology has already reached a world-class level.. Now, I am confident that if we have a systematic entry strategy and ability to respond to regulations, we will be able to succeed in the U.S. market..

For elderly patients with limited mobility or those who need long-term medication due to chronic diseases, proxy prescriptions, or more precisely, 'proxy receipt of prescriptions', are not just convenience, but a key element of continuity of treatment. The current medical law stipulates that only patients who have been directly examined by a doctor, dentist, or oriental medicine doctor can receive a prescription, but there are exceptions, such as when the patient is unconscious or has significant difficulty moving and the same prescription is given for a long period of time for the same injury. It is stipulated that prescriptions can be received on behalf of only under certain circumstances. However, even in this case, only the patient's immediate ascendants, descendants, spouse, spouse's immediate ascendants, siblings, etc. can serve as representative recipients. The Pharmaceutical Affairs Act also, in principle, presupposes direct receipt by the patient. However, in a reality where aging is rapidly progressing, these regulations place a significant burden on patients and their families. It is a bigger problem for elderly patients in rural areas who have difficulty traveling long distances, and for their guardians who must work simultaneously with care and work. The reason why the demand for ‘representative receipt of prescriptions’ is growing is clear. As of 2024, the population aged 65 or older exceeds 20% of the total, entering a super-aging society, and the prevalence of dementia, cancer, and chronic diseases continues to rise. Coupled with the problem of medically vulnerable areas, the current system, which requires patients to visit the hospital in person for simple check-ups or medication prescriptions, shows a gap with the flow of patient-centered medical care. However, indiscriminate permission is by no means the solution. First of all, the doctor's face-to-face treatment of the patient must be provided. If patients do not receive treatment directly, it is difficult for doctors to confirm accurate clinical symptoms and changes, and the possibility of drug side effects or misuse increases. Additionally, if the medicine is incorrectly delivered to a third party or received without the patient's consent, it may lead to privacy protection issues as well as legal disputes. In particular, these days, social problems such as drug distribution and drug abuse are frequently occurring due to the prescription and proxy reception of psychotropic drugs, which are narcotic drugs. The key is to find a balance between convenience and safety. Therefore, institutional improvements need to be made. For example, there is a method of institutionalizing a method for family members to legally receive money on their behalf by introducing a strict guardian registration system based on patient consent. If we carefully review the side effects that these measures may cause and prepare a comprehensive institutional solution at the hospital treatment, prescription, and pharmacy stages, we will be able to find an answer to the problem of balance between currency exchange and personal information protection. The issue of proxy prescriptions, or proxy collection of prescriptions, is an area where patient convenience and safety, medical professionals' responsibilities, and patients' rights are complexly intertwined. However, what is clear is that this is a problem directly related to the quality of life of patients and the care system of society as a whole. Establishing an institutional solution that ensures patient safety while alleviating the burden on families is an important task that our medical community must solve as we move towards a super-aging society.[View full article] [Contribution] Proxy prescription, balance between patient convenience and safety (link) 2026-05-12T11:53:38.496Z https://www.daeryunlaw.com/en/broadcast/5709 As international discussions surrounding the leadership and regulation of digital asset hegemony intensify due to the rise of stablecoins, Korean-American lawyers from each country unanimously emphasized the need to create a trusted market. At the 32nd regular general meeting of IAKL held at the Korea University Law School in Anam-dong, Seongbuk-gu, Seoul on September 25, Taejun Bae (37th Judicial Research and Training Institute), attorney at Lin Law Firm, said of the Virtual Asset User Protection Act that was implemented last year, “There is criticism that Korean-style protection regulations are excessive.” The Virtual Asset User Protection Act mandates banks to trust deposits of digital asset users in preparation for fraud and hacking incidents. There was opposition that investment was discouraged due to low liquidity and the possibility of being used as an international payment method was reduced. Several digital asset basic laws have also been proposed in the National Assembly. It contains regulations such as imposing disclosure obligations on the issuance and distribution of digital assets and prohibiting unfair transactions. Attorney Bae said, “Regulations in Korea tend to be greatly influenced by social or political influences,” and added, “We need to watch for changes in the future.” Other countries are also strengthening digital asset regulations. A representative country is the United States. First, regulations are being unified. Dong-hoo Son, a foreign attorney at Daeryun Law Firm (New York, USA), said, “The joint statement issued by the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission and the Commodity Exchange Commission shows a strong will to regulate digital assets.” The two organizations have been fighting over jurisdiction over whether digital assets are securities or products, but formalized regulatory cooperation in September 2025. The reason for strengthening regulations is to create a highly trustworthy market environment for digital assets. Park Wan-ki, a foreign lawyer at Liberty Chambers (Hong Kong), mentioned a survey showing that public trust in regulated platforms is more than 20% higher than in unregulated platforms, and said, "Hong Kong is trying to become 'Wall Street' rather than the 'Wild West' (the West, a symbol of disorder) of the cryptocurrency market." Hong Kong restricts access to ordinary people, not professional investors, so that they can only invest in digital assets regulated by financial authorities. Some countries have flexible responses. Switzerland is showing flexibility in the way it regulates digital assets within the existing civil and financial law systems. Park Min-young (2nd bar exam), attorney at Sedam Law Firm, explained, “For some digital assets, tokens are initially issued in Switzerland and then obtained a license in the EU, which has strict consumer protection regulations.” Attorney Park also warned, "Switzerland has great flexibility, but you must follow the regulations of the market in which you actually want to conduct business. Just because regulations are lax, you should not use them as a means of evasion."[View full article] Digital assets: regulation or flexibility? “We must build a trusted market” (Shortcut) 2026-05-14T04:50:46.427Z https://www.daeryunlaw.com/en/broadcast/5708 Daeryun Law Firm joined hands with industry and private companies to innovate legal services and respond to policies in the era of artificial intelligence (AI). Ahead of the huge institutional change called the 'AI Basic Act' scheduled to be implemented in 2026, this is the first preemptive step to establish a cooperation system among legal experts, industries, and companies. Daeryun Law Firm announced on the 30th that it signed a business agreement (MOU) with the Korea Artificial Intelligence Association and Skyes Korea Co., Ltd. at its Seoul headquarters branch office on the 25th and established a triangular cooperation system for AI-based legal service innovation and policy response. The agreement ceremony was attended by key officials including CEO Dong-il Park and Lee-sun Choi of Daeryun Law Firm, Chairman Kim Hyun-cheol and Executive Vice Chairman Kim Geon-hoon of the Korea Artificial Intelligence Association, and Kim Hee-jin, CEO of Sky's Korea. This business agreement started from the fact that the use of artificial intelligence is spreading throughout the legal field. Recently, AI has become a means of increasing efficiency and strengthening expertise in legal document writing, contract analysis, etc., and the paradigm of legal services is also changing. The AI ​​Framework Act, scheduled to go into effect in January 2026, is expected to be a major institutional turning point for both industry and the legal profession. Close cooperation between associations, companies, and legal experts is required in the process of preparing subordinate laws. The parties to the agreement plan to build a convergence model encompassing industry, law, and policy based on their respective strengths. It is expected that the association's network of over 1,600 member companies, Sky's Korea's consulting and marketing capabilities, and Daeryun's legal service expertise will be combined to create a cooperative system that can support the entire AI ecosystem. The three organizations will work together to develop the ability to utilize AI as a core competitiveness of legal experts and to position AI as a means to complement and strengthen legal services, rather than a simple substitute. In addition, in line with the implementation of the Basic AI Act, we plan to jointly pursue legal and policy responses such as participation in regulatory sandboxes and legislative support. We will strengthen corporate-tailored AI introduction consulting and government business connection support and promote the spread of AI solutions by utilizing the association's member company network. At the same time, we provide advice on legal issues and regulatory issues that arise in the industrial field and continue to propose joint policies and improve regulations. “Through this agreement, the association will be able to work with legal experts and companies to respond to policies and regulations for the development of the AI industry,” said Kim Hyeon-cheol, president of the Artificial Intelligence Association. “The convergence of AI and legal services will create new global competitiveness. We will support industrial development together with the association and companies,” said Park Dong-il, CEO of Daeryun. “Reporter Jeong-won Hwang.” (jwhwang@mt.co.kr)[View full article] Money S - Daeryun, leading AI innovation...

It unilaterally withdrew after requesting 108 months instead of the 84 months stated in the bidding notice, sparking controversy over violation of the National Contract Act. According to Article 27 of the National Contract Act, if a contract is not concluded or performed without a justifiable reason, the bidder's eligibility to participate in the bidding is restricted as an unfair company. In other words, whether there was a 'justifiable reason' is a legal matter. This is an issue. Regarding this, the Ministry of Strategy and Finance, which is in charge of the National Contract Act, is of the position that legal sanctions are difficult to impose. The Ministry of Strategy and Finance stated that it is difficult to say that Hyundai Engineering & Construction has an obligation to conclude a contract because it has only submitted basic design documents and has not even signed a preliminary contract. On the other hand, civil society groups criticized that setting a precedent of not imposing penalties on companies that unilaterally give up on a negotiated contract during the process will have a serious negative impact on all future national projects. [Lee Ji-hoo/Chairman of Citizen Sympathy, Preparing for a Future Society] “I don’t understand the fact that the government cannot impose sanctions on Hyundai Engineering & Construction, which only pursues corporate profits.” The legal community believes that a comprehensive review of contracts and public offering guidelines is necessary, separate from the interpretation of the Ministry of Strategy and Finance's laws. [Park Dong-il/Attorney] (Article 27, Paragraph 1, Item 9, Article 27, Paragraph 1, Item 9 of the National Contract Act) provides that the company can be designated as an unfair business operator even in cases where it ‘refuses to conclude a contract without justifiable reasons,’ and it appears that sanctions against Hyundai Engineering & Construction will be determined through a closer review of the facts and a specific judgment.” As the Ministry of Land, Infrastructure and Transport announced that it would review whether to impose sanctions after receiving the response from the Ministry of Strategy and Finance, attention is focused on whether or not it will be finally designated as an unfair business operator.

'Spreading anger' (Shortcut) 2026-05-07T06:16:41.127Z https://www.daeryunlaw.com/en/broadcast/5697 The court on charges of 'quasi-fraud' intentionally targeting market gains to build a country house said, "Is schizophrenia recognized... but it is difficult to say that it is significantly cheaper" A man who was put on trial on charges of deceiving a schizophrenia patient and purchasing a land permit at a lower price than the market price was found not guilty. On the 28th of last month, the Changwon District Court found Mr. A, a man in his 60s, not guilty on charges of quasi-fraud. Mr. A was accused of intentionally approaching Mr. B, who suffered from schizophrenia, and purchasing the land permit at a lower price than the market price while acquiring the right to use a river in Miryang-si, Gyeongsangnam-do to build a country house in 2021. However, Mr. A denied the charge. At the time of the transaction, we had several conversations with Mr. B, and the intention is that Mr. B had reasonable judgment regarding the disposition of the rights. At the same time, Mr. A emphasized, “I could not understand at all that Mr. B was suffering from mental illness.” The court found Mr. A not guilty. The court explained, “According to the market valuation results, the standard market price of the license in question is 3,544,140 won, and the defendant purchased it at a price that is 15% lower than the market price,” adding, “It is difficult to say that the rights were acquired at a price so low that it constitutes quasi-fraud.” Kim Kyung-hwan, a lawyer at law firm Daeryun who represented Mr. “Intentionality is the issue,” he said. “The fact that Mr. B was diagnosed with schizophrenia does not allow us to conclude that the defendant was aware of Mr. B’s mental and physical disability at the time of signing the contract.” It was also stated, “Mr. B faithfully proved that he was in a state where he was able to distinguish between interests and interests at the time, such as proposing to transfer the permit to Mr. A first.”[View full article] “I deceived a patient with schizophrenia”... ‘Permit appraisal results’ that overturned the fraud case (link) 2026-05-10T14:54:56.714Z https://www.daeryunlaw.com/en/broadcast/5696 The aftermath of the Korean detention incident that occurred in the U.S. state of Georgia continues to linger. In particular, the situation appears to have entered a new phase as workers who were detained at the time came forward claiming 'human rights violations'. First of all, one of the biggest issues currently being raised is ‘arrest and detention without warrant.’ According to some media reports, there was no warrant at the time of arrest, and related documents were reportedly prepared only a few days after the workers were detained. The Fourth Amendment to the U.S. Constitution fundamentally limits warrantless arrest and detention. Even in the case of immigration raids, arrests are not permitted based on simple estimates or vague suspicions; they must meet the standard of 'reasonable cause' and proceed in accordance with procedures guaranteed by the Constitution. The basis for the crackdown by Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) appears to be Article 287 of the Federal Immigration Act (INA §287, 8 U.S.C. §1357). The provision does give immigration authorities the authority to investigate foreigners suspected of being in the country illegally and, in certain cases, to arrest them without a warrant. However, the premise is that there must be a ‘reasonable reason’. If arrests are made en masse without individual reasons in a large-scale crackdown, it will not be free from unconstitutional controversy as it conflicts with the Fourth Amendment of the Constitution (prohibition of unreasonable searches and arrests). Therefore, detained workers may raise questions about the guarantee of these constitutional rights. The lack of procedural notice can also be pointed out as a problem. Foreigners detained during immigration procedures must receive a 'Notice to Appear' (NTA), which must clearly state the reasons for deportation. If the immigration authorities did not properly notify this, it is worth claiming a procedural defect. In addition, workers can use a legal tool called 'Motion to Suppress Evidence' to request that evidence obtained during illegal arrests be excluded from the court. In addition to simple detention procedures, workers can raise legal issues if they have ever been in a situation where their human rights are violated during the detention process. Immigration detention does not provide a public defender as in criminal cases, but the right to contact a lawyer is guaranteed under Article 292 of the Immigration Act. Therefore, if phone calls or interviews are restricted at the time of detention, this may constitute a violation of constitutional due process. In addition, issues such as overcrowding, poor hygiene, and lack of medical services in detention facilities can all be disputed as violations of due process under the 8th Amendment (prohibition of cruel or abnormal punishment) or Article 5 of the Constitution. In particular, if you are not provided with the medication you normally take, it is highly likely that it will be considered a serious violation of your rights. In fact, in 2020, when COVID-19 was spreading around the world, an incident occurred at the Mesa Bird Immigrant Detention Center in California, USA, where a Korean man in his 70s committed suicide ahead of deportation proceedings. At the time, the deceased suffered from diabetes, high blood pressure, and heart disease, and applied for bail due to the risk of COVID-19 infection, but the immigration court dismissed the request. Afterwards, the deceased's family filed a lawsuit against ICE and the immigration detention center operator for damages based on medical neglect and deliberate indifference. During the lawsuit, the issues that the man suffered from before his detention and whether he received treatment during his detention became an issue. However, the case did not reach a court ruling, and the case was closed through an agreement. In this situation, what many people are curious about is the 'possibility of filing a lawsuit.' The answer is 'possible'. In principle, U.S. courts allow lawsuits filed by foreign plaintiffs, and jurisdiction is recognized because the illegal acts occurred within the United States. However, there may be difficulties in securing evidence and proceeding with procedures due to living abroad, and burden of costs. Types that can be claimed include illegal detention, violation of due process, medical neglect, civil rights infringement, and illegal death. For this purpose, objective evidence is needed, such as documents at the time of detention, medical data, statements by the person and his or her colleagues, and consulate records. Also, in practice, you can appoint a professional lawyer in the United States, secure a statement, and submit a complaint to the competent federal court. Individual lawsuits are also possible, but in reality, class lawsuits may be a more efficient method. If a class lawsuit is filed, the likelihood of winning is also high. Just as the bereaved family filed a lawsuit for damages and received financial compensation in the case of the death of a man in his 70s mentioned above, the workers involved in the detention case in Georgia will also be able to receive legal judgment.

(Shortcut) 2026-04-25T06:51:38.077Z https://www.daeryunlaw.com/en/broadcast/5689 Introducing the law firms’ Yellow Envelope Law Task Force. Daeryun Law Firm formed a task force (TF) last month to present practical countermeasures to corporate clients from the beginning of the implementation of the so-called Yellow Envelope Act (Amendment to Articles 2 and 3 of the Labor Union Act). We focus on providing comprehensive legal support encompassing customized personnel systems and overall labor-management relations to help corporate customers develop predictable management strategies and minimize unnecessary disputes. The TF is headed by In-Tae Bang (Training Institute 41st class), an attorney with extensive experience in human resources, labor, industrial accident consulting, and litigation representation. Attorney Jeong Sang-hyeok (bar exam taken 10 times) specializes in preventing corporate risks based on his experience as a member of the deliberation and investigation committee on workplace bullying, sexual harassment, and human rights violations. Attorney Chang-min Jeong (12 cases) has handled a number of corporate-related civil and industrial accident cases. Labor attorney Nam Seo-hye, who has provided labor consulting in the IT, service, manufacturing, distribution, and hospitals and clinics fields, and labor attorney Yang Hee-chun, who has been in charge of responding to Labor Office and Labor Relations Commission cases and workplace harassment investigations, are also adding their expertise to the TF. The TF seeks to achieve the two axes of minimizing corporate legal risks and stabilizing labor-management relations at the same time. To this end, we are preparing services such as △a response manual for each key issue of the Yellow Envelope Act △risk diagnosis and simulation for each company △establishing a response system in case of a dispute △operating an in-house training program. In particular, as the characteristics of companies differ depending on the industry and size, TF's biggest differentiation is that it provides customized solutions for companies rather than uniform advice. The TF holds regular seminars and webinars to inform corporate officials, including personnel and labor managers, of the main contents of the amendment and expected legal risks. Recently, a 'Yellow Envelope Law Response Strategy Seminar' was held at the Seoul Headquarters branch office. Regarding the on-site atmosphere felt during this process, Attorney Bang said, "When dealing with corporate clients, most of them feel a great deal of anxiety about 'what to prepare after the law goes into effect.'" He added, "In particular, the human resources and labor teams need a detailed roadmap as they need to prepare internal regulations, labor-management negotiation strategies, and risk response scenarios in line with changes in the system." We plan to predict and analyze cases and, based on this, build a response model that companies can use immediately in the field. We are also preparing practical guidelines and casebooks that companies can use on their own. Attorney Bang said, “We will cooperate with the government, academia, labor-management organizations, etc. to provide advice from an objective and balanced perspective,” and added, “We will do our best to ensure that the implementation of the Yellow Envelope Act becomes an opportunity for stable growth for companies.” Reporter Park Seon-woo (closely@bloter.net)[View full article] [Yellow Envelope Law Firm Restaurant] Daeryun, reduces risks and supports stabilization of labor-management relations (link) 2026-05-06T21:29:12.187Z https://www.daeryunlaw.com/en/broadcast/5682 British adult platform 'OnlyFans' receives a subscription fee for uploading explicit videos. There are concerns that teenagers who approached out of curiosity may be involved in crimes such as sexual exploitation. Domestically, this constitutes a violation of the Information and Communications Network Act, and the Korea Communications Standards Commission has issued only one correction order this year. # A, a woman in her 20s, earned about 320 million won by posting about 80 explicit content on OnlyFans to cover living expenses and tuition. Ms. A received a subscription fee of about $5 per month from about 1,000 subscribers, and she also had face-to-face sex with men she met through OnlyFans and received money approaching several million won per session.# While Ms. B, another woman in her 20s was continuously failing to find a job, at the suggestion of her boyfriend, she started filming nudity videos and sex videos and uploading them to OnlyFans. Mr. B, who received subscription fees equivalent to $15 per month from about 200 subscribers, uploaded about 30 videos and made a profit of about 100 million won. # Mr. C and D, a couple in their 30s, also received a subscription fee of 20,000 to 30,000 won per month on OnlyFans and uploaded about 30 sex videos of themselves, earning about 300 million won. OnlyFans is a British content platform that appeared in 2016 and grew rapidly during the pandemic, with 238.8 million users and more than 3.1 million creators as of early last year. Users can view the creator's photos, videos, and live broadcasts by paying a monthly subscription fee. It may seem similar to YouTube membership, Instagram membership, etc., but OnlyFans differs in that it allows sexual content. In OnlyFans, content creators take 80% of the profits. Overseas, celebrities are already earning hundreds of millions of won by posting videos on OnlyFans. Joining OnlyFans itself is not a crime, but creating and uploading pornographic material is against domestic law. For this reason, there is a high chance that you will fall into crime without even knowing it just by signing up for OnlyFans. The problem is that the existence of OnlyFans is becoming known not only to adults but also to teenagers. There are also concerns that people who access OnlyFans content out of curiosity may be exploited by sex offenders. One teenager said, “You can easily find 30-second preview bait videos on sites such as An official from the Korea Communications Standards Commission said, “OnlyFans is not a company with a branch in Korea, so it is difficult to impose separate sanctions on the business operator, and even if you talk to OnlyFans, there will be no response.” He added, “In reality, it may be faster to report the individuals who upload the videos to the police and subject them to criminal punishment.” In fact, according to data received by Maeil Business Newspaper from the Korea Communications Standards Commission, the committee has approved only one request for correction until the 23rd of this year. If illegal adult content is distributed on OnlyFans, the National Security Commission can check it and take action to prevent access within the country, but the number of requests for correction is decreasing every year. The National Security Commission approved 20 requests for correction in 2021, but only one request was made this year. It does not know anything about OnlyFans' domestic creators, number of users, or sales. The N-room prevention law obliges domestic telecommunication companies to block the distribution of illegal videos, but there is no way to apply this to overseas platforms such as OnlyFans. According to the Information and Communications Network Act, businesses with more than 100,000 daily average users in the three months immediately preceding the end of the previous year and businesses with sales of more than KRW 1 billion in the previous year must designate a person in charge of youth protection. However, OnlyFans cannot be regulated by applying this provision because its size has not been estimated. It is in a blind spot of regulation. It is difficult to receive protection even if a crime occurs. Mr. A appealed, saying, “I am suffering from severe mental pain because the video posted on OnlyFans was leaked illegally,” and “Stronger regulations are needed as victims continue to emerge.” Seonggeun Cho, an attorney at Daeryun Law Firm, said, “In the beginning, creators were given probation or leniency by the court, but as the OnlyFans business grows, it is changing to stronger collection and stronger punishment.” He added, “Mainly people in their 20s and 30s use videos to make money.” “There are cases of people being arrested for uploading videos for the purpose of making a living, so users need to be aware that it is a crime and be alert,” he said.

On the 27th of last month, the 4-3rd Administrative Division of the Seoul High Court filed a lawsuit to cancel the car driver's license cancellation filed by A, a man in his 30s, against the Gyeonggi Province Northern Police Agency chief on the 27th of last month. The appeals court overturned the first trial judgment and ruled in favor of the plaintiff. Mr. A was caught in a drunk driving crackdown in 2023 and had his license revoked the following year. At the time of detection, the blood alcohol concentration was 0.033%, which is the level of license suspension, but the police canceled the license on the grounds that Mr. A had a history of drunk driving. Afterwards, Mr. A filed an administrative judgment, claiming that there was a problem with the measurement process. At the time, I was notified by the police that a relatively light ‘license suspension’ would be imposed, and this is why I did not have blood drawn. Mr. A argued that the cancellation was illegal because he had given up his right to request a re-measurement due to the police officer's provision of incorrect information. However, the police countered that the police officer who controlled the scene at the time clearly informed Mr. A that he had the right to re-measure, and that Mr. A then directly wrote in the relevant documents that he would give up the re-measurement. Furthermore, he emphasized that since the enforcement police officer has no obligation or responsibility to guide legal decisions, the final decision-making rests with Mr. A's own responsibility and judgment. The Central Administrative Appeals Commission, which reviewed the case, dismissed Mr. A's claim. Accordingly, Mr. A filed an administrative lawsuit. The first trial court ruled in favor of the police. The court said, “The police officer was merely notified for convenience that he was expected to receive administrative action equivalent to a suspension,” and added, “It is difficult to say that the police officer has a duty to investigate the driver’s drinking history and guide the expected action, and it cannot be said that the plaintiff was wrongly notified.” Mr. A, who was dissatisfied with this, immediately appealed, and the second trial court ruled in Mr. A’s favor. The appellate court said, “The purpose of establishing the alcohol re-testing procedure is to allow police officials to clearly inform drivers of the legal effects and to enable them to reasonably decide whether to request a re-testing,” and concluded, “If the police incorrectly notified the driver of the disposition and the driver gave up the right to request a re-testing, this is an illegal matter.” At the same time, “As a plaintiff who is not a legal expert, it seems that he decided not to request a re-testing in anticipation of a suspension as notified by the police.” He added, “It is reasonable to consider that the right to request a re-measurement has been waived based on the provision.” Attorney Shin Dong-hoon of Daeryun Law Firm, who represented Mr. A, said, “The suspension and revocation of a driver’s license has a large difference in the degree of disadvantage to the person disposing of it, so in cases like Mr. A who slightly exceed the blood alcohol concentration violation standard, this is important information in deciding on a re-measurement.” He added, “During the trial, the police provided incorrect information about important matters in deciding to exercise the right, and as a result, Mr. “We were able to overturn the first trial result by emphasizing that we had given up,” he explained.

According to the legal community on the 22nd, the Seoul Central District Court on the 28th of last month awarded 167 million won in compensation to the plaintiff in a lawsuit filed against the state by three people, including Mr. A, the bereaved family of the victims of the Goseong Press League. It was ruled that payment should be made. Mr. B, the victim of the incident and father of three, including Mr. A, was sacrificed by the police in the Goseong area of Gyeongsangnam-do around July and August 1950 for being involved in the National Press Association. Mr. A applied for investigation into this case in 2021 through the Truth and Reconciliation Commission. Through this, the Jinhwa Committee confirmed that Mr. B was a victim of the Goseong National Press Association incident last year. Mr. A and others demanded compensation from the government for illegal acts, but the government insisted on the statute of limitations, saying that the period for filing a claim for compensation had passed. The right to claim national compensation must be made within three years from the date the victim or his representative became aware of the damage or harm. However, the court did not accept the government's argument. The court refuted the government's argument and ruled in favor of Mr. A, saying, "If the Fire Protection Committee decides to investigate the truth regarding serious human rights violations or fabricated or suspected cases, the right to claim compensation arises from the date the notice of decision to determine the truth is served." It continued, "The deceased was killed by the defendant's police without going through due process," and "The defendant is responsible for compensating the bereaved family for the mental pain and alimony, etc." This was elaborated. Mr. A's representative, Se-ro Park, an attorney at the Daeryun Law Firm, explained, "Mr. A's side had to go through painful years without knowing the exact circumstances of Mr. B's death, such as the reason or date and time of his death. We were able to get a good result by emphasizing the fact that we were only able to identify the exact damage and perpetrator after receiving the decision to determine the truth."

On the 11th, the Wonju branch of the Chuncheon District Court sentenced Mr. A, an assistant teacher at the daycare center, to a fine of 12 million won, who was indicted on charges of violating the Special Act on the Punishment of Child Abuse Crimes. Mr. A was in the same class as Mr. B, a daycare student in October last year. When he tried to play along with his friend, he is accused of grabbing B's arm and forcing him to sit down, causing a fracture. At that time, Mr. A lifted his body while holding B's wrists with both hands and pressed him to the floor. As a result, it was confirmed that Mr. B suffered an injury that broke his shin and required about 14 weeks of treatment. Mr. B's side said, "Mr. A cried out in pain, but no action was taken and only other children treated him. He claimed, “Considering the extent of the injuries, Mr. A’s crime can only be seen as an intentional act mixed with emotions.” The court sentenced Mr. A to a fine. The court pointed out, "He caused serious injuries by violently lifting and sitting down a child with weak bones and muscles, causing considerable physical and mental pain to the victim and his parents." However, the court said, "He made a somewhat excessive movement once while trying to discipline the child to stop him from playing, and this only constitutes a relatively minor level of assault. We took into account the fact that the defendant is a first-time offender and the fact that he admits to the crime in this case." It was added. Attorney Gil Se-cheol of Daeryun Law Firm, who was in charge of legal representation for Group B, said, "As an assistant teacher, he must fulfill his duties in his position of protecting and supervising children, but Mr. A injured a child whose bones were not yet fully formed. He emphasized that the child victim is requesting severe punishment." #Court #Childabuse #Daycare #IncidentAccident Park Seok-ho (haitai2000@ikbc.co.kr)[View full article] Daycare teacher who caused a fracture to a 30-month-old child by “grabbing his arm and forcing him to sit down” (link) 2026-05-09T01:43:05.518Z https://www.daeryunlaw.com/en/broadcast/5674 In recent years, the development of artificial intelligence (AI) has brought about great changes throughout our society. In particular, chatbots, generative AI, and legal search and analysis systems have emerged in the legal field, and various law firms, including the one I belong to, are providing self-developed artificial intelligence legal services. Concerns that not only lawyers but also professional occupations such as accountants and tax accountants may be replaced by AI are constantly being raised, and it is true that AI is greatly improving the work efficiency of lawyers through extensive case law research, drafting, law and legal analysis, etc. AI uses vast amounts of data. It is excellent for quickly analyzing, searching for precedents and laws, and deriving certain patterns. Compared to the days when lawyers had to manually flip through dozens of case books to find cases, AI can suggest similar precedents and strategies for resolving cases in a matter of seconds. In addition, it has already established itself as a powerful assistive tool for lawyers in drafting contracts, creating standardized forms, and repetitive legal review tasks. For this reason, some even predict that “simple legal documents will soon be written by AI, and lawyers will gradually become unnecessary.” However, can AI truly replace the role of human lawyers? The legal profession will not be unaffected by AI's counterattack, but the author's conclusion is that it will not be easy to replace human lawyers, given that they still have a role and meaning in existence. The core of a lawyer's role is 'dealing with people.' Among the many tasks a lawyer does, communicating with clients and understanding the client's injustice are more important than writing and submitting a perfect document. In fact, there are many clients who feel relieved and even mentally healed while talking to a lawyer about their unfairness and the frustration of not being able to tell anyone. There are actually lawsuits that AI cannot handle. Among the criminal cases I handled, there was a person who lost both the first and second trials and was considering an appeal. Although I did everything I could as a defense attorney, such as interrogating witnesses intensely in the first and second trials and requesting evidence from other organizations, I lost the case and did not recommend an appeal to my client. On the contrary, considering the Supreme Court precedent and the high dismissal rate of appeals, I honestly said that the chances of winning the case were very low. The first client decided not to file an appeal based on my opinion, but he called me dozens of times three days before the last day of filing the appeal and said he would fight until the end. In the end, the case was lost, but the client expressed his gratitude to the author, saying, “Thank you for fighting hard until the end. I am so relieved that I have now done everything I can.” If it were AI, would it have been able to carry out this incident? According to AI's analysis of vast amounts of information and patterns, this case is a case that cannot possibly be won, so wouldn't it have been prevented from even being attempted? Also, when carrying out a case, there are many cases where you feel that the case is a "living creature." Even if a strategy is drawn up and thorough preparation is made at the time of the initial appointment, there are many cases where completely unexpected facts are revealed, the client decides to withdraw, or the case progresses in a different direction, such as an adjustment. No two cases are completely identical, and even in similar cases, legal evaluations may vary depending on the relationship between the parties, background, etc., and the conclusion may differ from the perspective of fairness depending on the client's situation or the judgment of the court. Cases cannot be resolved through a simple combination of legal information or pattern analysis. Although the client's case is just one of a vast number of cases of the same pattern to AI, it is the only case important enough to swallow up the client's life, and as the lawyer in charge, it is a task to understand the client's fear and injustice, sympathize with it, and defend it with all one's might, so it is necessary to pour the energy transferred to the client beyond mechanical case performance. A lawyer is not a person who simply writes legal documents, but a person who sincerely accepts the client's wishes and solves the problem. It's a person. AI is good at text data, but because it does not fully understand the subtle nuances of human relationships and the meaning of the case between the parties, there is a fundamental limitation of not being able to carry out cases based on various human interactions. Therefore, the correct approach to AI is not “AI replaces lawyers,” but rather “AI assists lawyers.” AI can save lawyers’ time and reduce repetitive tasks, which allows lawyers to use more energy to formulate strategies, make value judgments, and more. You can focus on communicating with your clients. In other words, the development of AI may not lead to the disappearance of lawyers, but may serve as an opportunity to further strengthen their expertise.[View full article] [Monday Column] The role of a lawyer in the era of artificial intelligence (AI) (link) 2026-05-14T01:48:00.468Z https://www.daeryunlaw.com/en/broadcast/5671 Daeryun Law Firm, responding to the demand for inbound and outbound legal advice with a focus on American lawyers, is expanding its scope of activity by strengthening its international work encompassing the expansion of global companies into Korea and the overseas expansion of domestic companies. Daeryun, which is also in the midst of expanding its global network, recently established law firms in New York and Washington D.C., hired local lawyers, and is preparing to open an office. American lawyers Mia Kim and Dong-hoo Son are at the center of this move. Attorney Mia Kim (Washington, D.C.) is an expert in the fields of international import and export transactions, international tax law, U.S. corporation establishment, and U.S. immigration law, and U.S. attorney Dong-hoo Son (New York) has been in charge of various litigation matters, including corporate law, asset management, and real estate investment, at a U.S. law firm for 9 years. In addition, Daeryun is based in Washington, D.C. We are expanding our international business base by recruiting U.S. Attorney Kyle Courtnall to our office and Tal Hirshberg to our New York office. U.S. Attorney Kyle graduated from Georgetown University, Johns Hopkins MBA, and University of Virginia Law School, and worked at the Washington D.C. and Virginia State Prosecutors' Offices and law firms, handling a variety of cases including criminal and immigration law. In addition, based on his experience as a financial advisor at Morgan Stanley and JPMorgan Chase, he is demonstrating his strengths in the international finance and cross-border fields. Tal is an American lawyer. After working for Starbucks Public Affairs and AOL, he worked as a lawyer at Selendy Gay Elsberg PLLC. ;He has solid practical skills based on extensive experience in various international work areas, including civil and criminal cases in New York, as well as international cross-border and immigration law. The two lawyers will work as manager-level attorneys at Daeryun's U.S. office in the future. ; Attorney Kim said, "Daeryun has now gone beyond providing advice in Korea and has entered the stage of securing execution capabilities centered on local corporations," and added, "With the addition of Kyle, an attorney with extensive local experience, our ability to respond to the industry has been further strengthened." Attorney Son also added, "Attorney Tal, who has extensive experience in international affairs in various fields, has joined the New York office," adding, "Tal and I plan to work together as a team to provide intensive support centered on the New York market." Accordingly, based on strengthened corporate-oriented services, we plan to actively support the growing demand for investment, corporate establishment, and various disputes in the global market. The two lawyers agreed that the demand for both 'inbound', where overseas companies enter Korea, and 'outbound', where Korean companies go overseas, are steadily increasing. Attorney Son said, "Overseas companies are making many attempts to enter the Korean market in relation to consumer goods industries such as luxury goods and clothing, while Korean companies are making overseas inroads in the financial industry such as asset management. “It is gradually increasing,” he explained. Attorney Kim added, “Inquiries about domestic companies establishing local corporations in the U.S. have also increased.” ; In particular, Attorney Son said, "Recently, the number of startups and small and medium-sized businesses interested in the so-called 'Flip' has increased significantly." Flip refers to a strategy of establishing an overseas parent company on top of an existing Korean corporation and transferring the shares of the Korean corporation to the overseas parent company. ;Attracting global investment, preparing for overseas IPOs, and easing the tax burden on foreign investors are cited as the purposes of flips. Attorney Son said, "In fact, Daeryun has received many related inquiries. In the case of flips, it is a structure commonly chosen for global investment and exit, but assistance from experts is essential as it requires a thorough preliminary review of tax, foreign exchange regulations, and existing contract issues." In the future, Daeryun will further expand its network in major overseas markets beyond the United States and become a long-term partner of global companies. It is our policy to establish ourselves. Attorney Kim said, “Daeryun has a large number of lawyers who have experience in numerous cases, including the establishment of corporations in various industries and the issuance of residence visas related to this,” and added, “We will do our best to provide strategic and professional legal services to clients around the world.” #Law Firm #Global #USA Shin Min-ji (sourminjee@ikbc.co.kr)[View full article] Daeryun Law Firm expands customized international advisory services for global companies (Click here) 2026-05-12T11:03:54.504Z https://www.daeryunlaw.com/en/broadcast/5670 Law firms operate not only with lawyers, but also with the capabilities of expert committee members and advisors in each field..

'First sale regulation' and 'FTZ' must be used, etc." It is suggested that as U.S. trade policy is threatening domestic medical device price competitiveness, an advanced export strategy utilizing laws and systems is required. At Daeryun Law Firm's 'U.S. Medical Device Market Entry Seminar' held at COEX in Seoul on the 17th and hosted by the Korea Medical Device Industry Association, the U.S. tariff policy was discussed. Solutions to the problem were discussed. Daeryun Law Firm's customs expert Jae-ho Myeong, who was a speaker at the seminar that day, explained, "The new U.S. tariff policy goes beyond simply increasing the tax rate and is evolving to consider the 'nationality' of the product." Commissioner Myeong pointed out the vulnerabilities of the medical device industry with its complex global supply chain, saying, “Apart from the performance of the finished product, the country of origin of the input components is becoming a new trade barrier that hinders exports.” He added, “There may be cases where there is a conflict between the parts list submitted for FDA approval and the proof of origin for customs declaration, so if there is no integrated legal review, we may face greater risk.” Commissioner Myeong proposed ‘preemptive tariff design’ in which legal experts participate from the R&D planning stage as a solution to overcome this double whammy. He emphasized, "The final tariff rate varies depending on which parts are used and which country it is assembled in, so we need to devise a 'tariff diet' strategy that utilizes laws from the beginning of product development." Specifically, ▲product design considering the product classification (HS Code) to which low tax rates are applied ▲use of 'first sale regulations' that report tariffs at the first transaction price excluding intermediate distribution margins ▲bonded area in the United States Strategies such as tariff exemption and deferral plans using ‘foreign trade zones (FTZ)’ were also introduced.[View full article] Medipana - Changing US tariff policy considers ‘nationality’… “‘Preemptive design’ is important” (Shortcut) Wikitree - After crossing the FDA, tariff barriers...

The Busan District Court sentenced Mr. A, who was put on trial on special theft charges, to 6 months in prison on the 28th of last month. Mr. A received a luxury bag worth ‘5.9 million won’ from a used trading app in March of last year. He is accused of approaching seller B after seeing a post saying, "I am selling it," and asking him to deliver the bag to a convenience store, and then stealing the items being prepared for delivery and running away. As a result of the investigation, Mr. A visited a convenience store with a friend, and it was confirmed that the friend first broke a soju bottle in the convenience store refrigerator to attract the attention of the employee, and then used the opportunity to pick up the delivery box on the reception table and run away. The court found that Mr. A admitted to the crime, but that his technique was poor and that he had no contact with the victim. A prison sentence was imposed on the grounds that no agreement or damage recovery was achieved. Mr. A's history of receiving numerous juvenile protection orders for similar crimes was also taken into consideration in the sentencing. Attorney Seo-young Hwang of Daeryun Law Firm, who represented the victim, explained, "Mr. A intentionally deceived the victim by saying, 'He was trying to buy a birthday present for his wife while on an overseas business trip,' and induced him to make a delivery transaction rather than a direct transaction. The victim, who tried to use a used goods trading app, complained that he had suffered great financial and psychological damage."

Attorney Yeon Myeong-heum started out as Chief of Investigation at Yangcheon Police Station in Seoul in 2007 and has held key positions such as Special Investigation Chief of Seoul Metropolitan Police Agency, Chief of Anseong Police Station in Gyeonggi Province, and Chief of Seoul Western Police Station. It was rough. While serving in the police force for over 20 years, he directly investigated and commanded major criminal and economic crime cases, such as large-scale apartment remodeling corruption and pseudo-gasoline manufacturing cases, and is evaluated as a person with field sense and expertise. In particular, he showed a strong presence in the inspection field by playing an active role in various difficult cases such as cybercrime investigation into a North Korean hacker organization, illegal receipt of solar power subsidies, and corruption of personnel managers in metropolitan cities. In addition, Attorney Yeon served as the chairman of the 2015 police promotion exam preparation committee. He also contributed extensively to internal police training, including counseling on legal issues for police officers across the country. In addition, he taught constitutional trial lectures at the National Police University and solidified his position as a legal expert connecting investigative agencies and judicial agencies. Attorney Yeon said, "I now want to implement the experience I have accumulated in the investigative field into legal services to protect the rights and interests of the people at Daeryun, a large law firm. I will fulfill my role as a practical lawyer who can penetrate the essence of disputes and respond quickly and elaborately." Daeryun CEO Kim Kuk-il said, "Attorney Yeon is a talented person with long practical experience and expertise who is leading various cases. “Daeryun is a talented person with deep judgment and insight,” he said. “Daeryun’s criminal response capabilities have been further strengthened with the addition of Attorney Yeon, who has extensive investigative experience and case analysis ability.” Meanwhile, Daeryun operates a detective group and special action headquarters to respond to high-level criminal cases such as violent, economic, and public crimes, and is building a client-centered rapid response system from the beginning of the investigation to the trial stage.

Daeryun Law Firm signed an MOU with Medicos Biotech, a biomaterial developer, for legal stability in the bio and beauty industry and entry into the global market. At the signing ceremony held at Daeryun's Seoul office on the 11th, Daeryun CEO Kim Kuk-il, attorney Son Dong-hu, and Daeryun's U.S. attorney Kyle Courtnall, Tal. Hirshberg attended, and CEO Kim Soon-cheol of Medicos Biotech was present. Medicos Biotech Co., Ltd. is a specialized company that develops functional biomaterials and possesses stem cell and immune cell-based source technology, and has accumulated global-level R&D capabilities in various fields such as anti-aging, immune enhancement, and skin regeneration. In particular, we are continuously expanding our export base centered on the Asian and North American markets based on medical beauty, functional health functional foods, and pharmaceutical-bio convergence solutions, and recently, we are entering the global health tech market in earnest through the development of a customized healthcare platform based on precision medicine technology and AI analysis. Daeryun Law Firm provides a variety of legal advice, including medical dispute mediation, administrative litigation, new medical technology evaluation, and non-face-to-face treatment, focusing on the medical pharmaceutical group, which has many lawyers with doctor and pharmacist qualifications. In particular, bio startups often have difficulty obtaining advice necessary for business operations such as law, labor, tax, and accounting, but Daeryun is supporting bio startups in various ways through a total program. Through this MOU, the two organizations provide ▲ legal risk diagnosis and advice related to functional bio materials and medical beauty technology, ▲ consulting on establishing a bio data and personal information protection system and response to international regulations, and ▲ consulting on overseas licensing strategies such as the FDA and EMA. We plan to promote domestic and international integrated cooperation tasks such as linking with the global partnership network, ▲ raising global legal awareness and policy proposals in the biohealth field by holding joint seminars and forums, and ▲ providing labor, tax, and accounting advice necessary for business operation. Kim Soon-cheol, CEO of Medicos Biotech, said, “Commercialization of biotechnology must be achieved not only with scientific evidence, but also with securing legal credibility that meets international standards.” “We will push for commercialization more firmly,” said Kim Kuk-il, CEO of Daeryun Law Firm. “Legal risk management in the global market is key in the bio industry due to regulatory differences between countries and complex licensing procedures,” and “Daeryun will work with us as a strategic partner beyond legal partnership to ensure that Medicos Biotech’s innovative capabilities achieve stable and sustainable growth at home and abroad.” Reporter Son Dong-wook, Law Leader, twson@lawleader.co.kr Daeryun Law Firm and Medicos Biotech MOU for ‘Biohealth Global Market Legal Support’ (Click here) 2026-05-06T20:05:43.898Z https://www.daeryunlaw.com/en/broadcast/5656 Recently, US visa and immigration policies have become more stringent. This is because the Trump administration is maintaining its stance of welcoming foreign investment, but is further expanding crackdowns on violations of the purpose of stay, such as illegal stay. This trend is acting as a variable that increases uncertainty for both companies and workers wishing to enter the U.S. market. On the 4th local time, U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) and Homeland Security Investigations (HSI) conducted a large-scale crackdown at a factory in Georgia and arrested about 450 people. Many of these were not illegal immigrants but Korean workers who entered the country legally through a short-term business visa (B1) or Electronic System for Travel Authorization (ESTA). The problem was that although he entered the country under the pretext of a business trip, he was actually engaged in field work. In the end, they were detained on the grounds that their purpose of stay was different from their actual activities. As a result, the company faced a situation where key personnel suddenly left and the project was halted or planned factory construction was delayed. Although the government mobilized charter flights to support the return home, the confusion caused by administrative procedures was not easily resolved. The essence of this situation lies in the uncertainty of the system. The U.S. government is citing the justification of expanding investment and attracting talent, but at the same time tightening the reins of crackdown. Visas that allow you to legally work in the United States include L1/E2 (expatriate visa) and H-1B (professional work visa), but both require complicated preparation and take a long time to be approved. In particular, the quota for H1-B is limited every year, so even if you meet the requirements, you will not get a chance if you are excluded from the lottery. If this situation is repeated, key industrial projects entering the US market, such as semiconductors, secondary batteries, and shipbuilding, may be shaken. In particular, in the semiconductor and battery fields, which are highly dependent on field engineers, the risk of crackdowns is very likely to lead to production disruptions. For a US visa, one small mistake during the application process can lead to fatal results. Typos on the visa application form (DS-160), ambiguous answers in interviews, and even past posts and ‘likes’ on social media are subject to review. Family sponsorship visas are also immediately rejected if the financial requirements are not met. In the end, it is essential to prepare in advance for a visa that suits the characteristics such as H-1B, L1·E2, and O1 (artist visa), and differences in interpretation and political variables that may arise in the process must also be taken into consideration. Therefore, strategic plans must be sought before application to ensure thorough preparation. It is essential to ensure consistency in all documents, including application forms, employment contracts, financial evidence, and educational and career records, and to thoroughly prepare interview questions and answers. It is also important to have a system in place to compensate for unfavorable factors in advance and respond quickly to requests for additional documents. The United States is a center where the world's capital and talent flock. But the threshold is getting narrower. Strict regulations, strengthened crackdowns, and unpredictable policies are forcing companies and workers into an increasingly unstable environment. In the current environment, where related regulations and procedures are expected to be further strengthened for the time being, the basic action that companies and workers can take is to make visa issues a top priority for 'risk management'.

Last month, the Busan Northern Police Station arrested and sent five people who transported drugs from Cebu, Philippines using the ‘throwing’ method. As seen in the above case, the number of domestic drug cases is rapidly increasing. The number of domestic drug offenders caught increased by nearly 145% in 10 years, from about 11,000 cases in 2015 to 27,000 cases in 2023. In drug cases, as heavy punishment is expected for simple possession, assistance from legal experts and lawyers with extensive relevant experience is needed. Lawyer Park Seong-dong of Daeryun Law Firm said to the suspects involved in such cases, “In organized drug distribution cases, you must “The key is to clearly distinguish and defend the level of participation and role, so it is important to thoroughly explain the facts through legal assistance to avoid being unfairly and excessively responsible,” he said. Attorney Park graduated from the National Police Academy and served as chief prosecutor of the Seoul High Prosecutors' Office. Below is a Q&A with Attorney Park. - Punishment for drug distribution and trafficking crimes. ▲ Drug trafficking and distribution are punished much more severely than general possession or administration. In the case of hallucinogenic substances such as marijuana, you can be punished by imprisonment for up to 5 years or by a fine of up to 50 million won. In particular, the punishment for psychotropic drugs such as methamphetamine, ecstasy, and ketamine is more severe. You can be sentenced to up to 10 years in prison or a fine of up to 100 million won. If the number of transactions is high or the nature of the crime is serious, imprisonment for life or more than 10 years is possible. - The first thing a suspect involved in drug distribution and trafficking crimes who is about to be investigated by the police for the first time must do. ▲ Understand the serial nature of the investigation. The ultimate goal of an investigative agency is not simply to arrest one person, but to thoroughly eliminate sales tactics and higher-ups. Therefore, you may be quick to give in to the drug investigator's cajoling and make comments that are unfavorable to you, so you should consult with a legal expert before answering. If you have taken drugs, rather than unconditionally denying the charge, you should turn to a strategy of asserting that there is no ‘recidivism’. -What evidence can be advantageous to submit at trial? ▲Reflection and petition, data showing willingness for treatment and rehabilitation, recidivism prevention plan, investigation cooperation data, etc. In particular, it is important to sincerely explain that drug-related crimes have the possibility of returning to society. - It is said that there is a reward if you report it before you are involved in a drug crime. ▲ Compensation is paid to those who report or report the crime to an investigative agency or arrest the criminal before the drug crime is discovered. In order to receive compensation, it is necessary to submit an application for compensation payment to the Minister of Justice through the chief prosecutor of the local prosecutor's office. Even if the criminal is not arrested and only the drugs are confiscated, compensation can be received within the upper limit, which ranges from a minimum of 1 million won to a maximum of 300 million won.

(Shortcut) 2026-05-13T10:30:51.100Z https://www.daeryunlaw.com/en/broadcast/5650 The court ruled that it was illegal to not pay survivor's pension to a worker who died from pneumoconiosis while working in a mine due to an underlying disease. On the 21st of last month, the 13th Division of the Seoul Administrative Court ruled in favor of the plaintiff in a lawsuit filed by A, a woman in her 80s, against the Korea Workers' Compensation and Welfare Service to cancel the disposition of survivors' benefits and funeral expenses. A's husband Mr. B worked as an obstetrician at a coal mine for about 7 years since 1982. Afterwards, Mr. B was diagnosed with disability due to pneumoconiosis in 2002, and while receiving treatment, his condition worsened and he died in 2021. The direct cause of death listed on the autopsy report was pneumoconiosis. Accordingly, Mr. A reported to the Korea Workers' Compensation and Welfare Service, saying that Mr. B suffered from pneumoconiosis while working at the coal mine and died as a result. He requested survivors' benefits. However, the corporation rejected it. Mr. B was found dead at home, so the exact cause of death was unknown, and he suffered from chronic diseases such as high blood pressure, so it was difficult to determine pneumoconiosis as the main cause of death. Mr. A, who was dissatisfied with the disposition, filed a request for review, but it was dismissed, and his subsequent request for reexamination was also dismissed for the same reason. Accordingly, Mr. A filed an administrative lawsuit against the Corporation. During the trial. Mr. A emphasized that the Corporation overlooked the fact that Mr. B had suffered from lung disease for a long time and cited only the underlying disease as the cause of death. The court ruled in Mr. A's favor. The court said, "The deceased appears to have received appropriate treatment for the underlying disease and lived without any significant aftereffects until his death," adding, "On the other hand, pneumoconiosis and cardiopulmonary function were gradually worsening, and after being first diagnosed with pneumoconiosis, inpatient and outpatient treatment was repeated until just before death." “It appears that the deceased’s underlying disease may have had a complex effect on the death, but there is no evidence to suggest that the deceased’s health condition has worsened due to this,” he said, adding, “Even though it is difficult to clearly determine the cause of the deceased’s death, it is reasonable to consider worsening lung disease such as pneumoconiosis as the cause of death.” Attorney Kim Jin-ju of Daeryun Law Firm, which represented Mr. A, said, “The claim that the exact cause of death cannot be determined simply because the place of death was at home is based on Mr. B’s medical records and the autopsy report.” He explained, “It was a case of ignoring all objectively stated information,” and “Based on medical records, etc., we were able to obtain the court’s cancellation judgment by proving the medical causal relationship that the progressive worsening of pneumoconiosis and decreased respiratory function contributed to death.” #Court #Judgment #Survivor’s Pension Park Seok-ho (haitai2000@ikbc.co.kr)[View full article] Court calls it illegal to deny survivor's pension due to 'underlying disease' (link) 2026-05-04T11:56:02.456Z https://www.daeryunlaw.com/en/broadcast/5649 In a class action lawsuit claiming damages filed by subscribers who suffered damage from the SK Telecom SIM hacking incident, SKT submitted a response to the court asking the court to "dismiss the plaintiff's claim." According to Daeryun Law Firm on the 15th, SKT submitted a response to the claim for damages to the Seoul Central District Court on the 3rd, stating, "All of the plaintiff's claims will be dismissed and the plaintiff will bear the legal costs." Daeryun filed a lawsuit against SKT on behalf of about 250 people who suffered damage from the SKT SIM hacking incident, requesting compensation of 1 million won per person. In the response, SKT withheld a specific rebuttal. The reason is that although there was a resolution by the Personal Information Committee regarding whether the Personal Information Protection Act was violated, the specific reason could not be confirmed because the resolution was not delivered. SKT said, ‘As soon as the facts and issues in dispute in this case are confirmed, we will present our opinions in detail through a brief.’ There are also criticisms that SKT is ignoring compensation to consumers who suffered damage from hacking by not accepting the Korea Communications Commission’s recommendation to extend the contract termination penalty exemption period and also refusing to claim damages. Previously, the Korea Communications Commission’s Dispute Mediation Committee recommended that SKT extend the contract termination penalty exemption period until the end of this year. On July 4, SKT announced that it would waive the penalty for customers who canceled their contracts within 10 days, but the deadline was so short that it was difficult for consumers to be fully aware of it. However, as SKT did not submit a written opinion within the response deadline, the recommendation was not automatically accepted. Daeryun Special Action Headquarters (attorneys Young-gon Cho, Sang-won Yeo, and Myeong-cheol Kim), who are leading the class action suit for damages, said, “SKT is not showing a responsible attitude toward customer damage even after being fined 134.8 billion won,” and added, “Through this lawsuit, we have created an opportunity to make personal information protection the top value of corporate management and to address corporate irresponsibility.” “I will sound the alarm,” he said.

Corporate management risks resulting from policy changes, such as the United States' visa screening requirements and strengthened crackdown on illegal stays, have become a reality. In fact, law firms in charge of immigration and visa work are inundated with related inquiries, and interest in stable human resources management and ensuring legal stay in the industry is increasing. Experts point out that Korean companies should have a more systematic legal response structure in the wake of this incident. An immigration lawyer specializing in immigration law explained, "The U.S. visa system is not only complex, but the issuance process is also difficult, so it appears that companies have been using short-term business visas (B1) or visa-free Electronic Travel Authorization (ESTA). This will lead to issues with residency qualifications, putting them at risk of deportation or punishment in the future." In this situation, large domestic law firms are also strengthening their related capabilities, focusing on groups that handle international affairs such as immigration. Jipyong Law Firm recently launched the 'Global Risk Response Center' and is focusing on prevention and advice on risk management and consulting, including international trade, tariffs, and overseas regulations. Daeryun Law Firm has also strengthened its advisory for global companies, focusing on immigration and overseas investment groups. Daeryun, which has established local corporations in New York and Washington D.C., utilizes its local network to support ▲establishment and investment of domestic companies in the U.S. ▲checking expatriate visa applications ▲advising on immigration law and permanent residency acquisition. In particular, we are focusing on preventing and managing labor law risks that may arise in the process of dispatching human resources at home and abroad. An official from a local company said, "There are many cases where projects are delayed or contracts are canceled in the actual field because companies are unable to obtain appropriate visas. Since visas must be applied appropriately according to the size of the company and the characteristics of each industry, it seems inevitable that dependence on law firms will increase."

According to the legal community on the 15th, the Seongnam Branch of Suwon District Court ruled in favor of the plaintiff in a lawsuit seeking damages filed by Mr. A, a man in his 60s, against Mr. B, a man in his 40s, on the 12th of last month. Mr. A signed a sales contract with Mr. B, a relative, in 2016 and transferred the title to the apartment he owned. Soon after, Mr. B terminated the lease contract after consulting with the tenant who lived here and began living in the apartment on his own. However, a problem arose when Mr. B disposed of the apartment in 2023. Mr. A's side claimed that the real estate contract in question was concluded in the form of a 'title trust' and that, therefore, Mr. A disposed of the apartment without permission even though he was the actual owner. At the same time, he filed a lawsuit claiming that he should receive back about 1 billion won, which is equivalent to the market price of the apartment at the time of sale. Mr. B immediately refuted. It is said that the sale price was normally paid to Mr. A and the real estate was purchased. He emphasized that even when he terminated the contract with the existing tenant, he personally returned the deposit. The court ruled in Mr. A's favor. The court said, "It is confirmed that the plaintiff sent the money received during the contract process directly to the defendant's father, which is consistent with the plaintiff's claim that he entered into a real estate trust contract in the form of a sales contract." The court said, "As for the deposit returned to the tenant, the defendant's father also stated that he received money from the plaintiff and remitted it to the defendant. However, the defendant does not clearly explain the circumstances in which the money was received." He added, "The plaintiff also sent a separate sum of money when the tenant moved out, which appears to have paid moving expenses and brokerage fees to the tenant who was still on the contract at the time. Looking at these circumstances, the two entered into a real estate title trust agreement, and the defendant disposed of the real estate without the plaintiff's permission, so it is obligated to compensate for the damages." Attorney Kang Dae-hee of Daeryun Law Firm, who represented Mr. A, said, "The title trust is explicitly established by agreement between the parties." Of course, it can be established implicitly, and whether or not it is determined by considering the circumstances in which the registration was completed and the status of real estate management, etc., he explained.

Expanding the utility of rehabilitation with the 'Comprehensive Consideration Act' and 'Pre-ARS' Bankruptcy procedures that deal with the bankruptcy and rehabilitation of corporations are an unfamiliar and difficult area to approach. Since it is a matter that depends on the survival of the company, the actual benefits must be comprehensively considered, from the debtor's debt settlement to the creditor's losses. Practical experts advise that a quick decision is needed if a company is judged to have entered the bankruptcy stage. This is because the longer the situation is dragged out, the lower the realistic possibility of revival, and the individual representatives may also be exposed to legal risks. When a company has a certain amount of cash, it can handle issues such as tax issues, worker wages, and severance pay. This year, as institutional changes related to bankruptcy procedures continued, the scope of use of the rehabilitation system also expanded.Advised Kim Won-sang, head of Daeryun Law Firm's Rehabilitation and Bankruptcy Center, in the field of rehabilitation and bankruptcy., procedure, Learn about systems, etc.. The following is a Q&A with Attorney Kim.. -Please introduce your current work and field at Daeryun.. △Mainly responsible for corporate rehabilitation and bankruptcy.. The field may be unfamiliar, but broadly it refers to restructuring., Narrowly, it refers to corporate rehabilitation and bankruptcy as stipulated in the Debtor Rehabilitation Act.. -I am curious about the characteristics of advice in this field.. What should I pay special attention to?. △Basically, bankruptcy proceedings are a matter of how to pay off the debtor's debts.. Bankruptcy and rehabilitation are similar but different paths., Bankruptcy is the process of destroying a corporation, and rehabilitation is the process of reviving it.. There are two ways to dissolve a corporation: dissolution and liquidation and bankruptcy.. When a corporation's assets are greater than its liabilities, shareholders also receive benefits through dissolution and liquidation procedures.. Conversely, when liabilities are greater than assets, all creditors are paid and the corporation is dissolved.. Corporate rehabilitation cancels some of the debt and reimburses the remaining debt. 10It is to save the corporation by paying it back annually.. From a creditor's perspective, there may be a negative perception of rehabilitation and bankruptcy because it has the effect of extinguishing his or her claims.. In addition, there is a possibility of fraud or a criminal offense, so it is important to proceed with the procedure while establishing a good relationship with the creditor.. -What is the role of a law firm in corporate bankruptcy?. Is there a proper bankruptcy procedure?. △The role is to represent the debtor.. File an application with the court and proceed with the litigation process according to the procedure.. A company with more liabilities than assets can go bankrupt at any time.. Since a company wishing to file for bankruptcy has no choice but to write off its debts to business partners from which it was purchased, the debtor is at an advantage but the creditor is at a disadvantage.. During this process, there is a risk of being sued for criminal fraud, etc., so it is best to resolve the matter well in advance and establish a good relationship before entering into the process.. The most problematic thing when entering bankruptcy proceedings is the money that the representative took away from the company.. In Korea 1Since there are many independent shareholders, the company often identifies its shareholders as shareholders and often spends company money as it pleases.. A company going through bankruptcy proceedings is obviously going through a difficult time, so this part of the process becomes a problem.. It is also important to ensure that all creditors are paid equally.. We must be wary of the possibility of biased repayment.. -What is the nature of rehabilitation advisory?. If there is a key factor that separates success and failure. △The accounting aspect plays a big role in revival.. Sales must be good, so that surplus profits remain after deducting costs, which can be used to repay part of the debt.. For example, if the debt 100If it's 100 million won 30%Just pay it back 70%will be converted into equity capital.. 30Hundreds of millions of won 10Because it is repaid annually, the average 1in year 3It's hundreds of millions of won each.. Sales are important because operating profit, excluding various costs, must be greater than that amount.. However, since companies that enter the rehabilitation process come from a state of declining sales, it is important to determine how to expand the number of customers in the future to sustain the company.. If sales are down, you should look into whether the company can be a target for acquisition based on its strengths in intellectual property rights and patents.. Even within the rehabilitation process M&Ais possible. -How about looking at the recent trends in corporate rehabilitation and bankruptcy?. △past 2023since 2024By the second half of 2018, the number of corporate rehabilitation and bankruptcy cases had increased significantly.. Most people predicted that the future economy would be bad and made preemptive preparations.. From the most recent first half of this year, it decreased slightly compared to the end of last year.. Before that, it was difficult to extend the loan and the conditions were strict., There seems to be an expectation that these issues will be alleviated.. It is expected that this level will be maintained until the first half of next year.. -late last year ‘Comprehensive Consideration Act’was introduced. Impact on the industry and prospects for future changes. △When going through rehabilitation, both security rights and rehabilitation claims must be considered.. The security right is 100% have to pay back. On the other hand, bonds are about 30% Pay off the remaining amount 70%is an equity-to-equity conversion.. Previously, this was calculated mechanically using the relative equity method.. However, in Korea 1Since there are many personal or family companies, the CEO's share of stock is often reduced, falling below the majority.. In theory, creditors could dismiss the employee, which could lead to loss of management rights.. The Comprehensive Consideration Act allows the person running the company to secure a majority stake.. Representatives who have entered the rehabilitation process can also use the rehabilitation process effectively because they can avoid the risk of loss of management rights.. There are an increasing number of cases of establishing rehabilitation plans based on this, centering around the Seoul Rehabilitation Court.. Another rehabilitation court, As local court bankruptcy departments spread and become established, more companies will be able to take advantage of the rehabilitation process.. -Are there any institutional issues you are specifically looking into?. What is the issue or point of observation?. △At the Seoul Rehabilitation Court Pre-ARS(Autonomous Restructuring Support) The system was recently introduced. ARSis an adjustment procedure., Rather than having a company go through rehabilitation until the end of the process and get the plan approved, it is better to reach a smooth agreement with creditors and shorten the period.. With the consent of all creditors, Submit the plan in advance. When rehabilitation procedures begin, usually 7months8It takes months., In this case 2months3Can be finished in months. Pre-ARSEven without going through rehabilitation procedures, a plan can be created and approved by creditors through the rehabilitation court's mediation process so that it can be quickly approved.. It protects debtors by utilizing the adjustment process without presuming a rehabilitation process.. If a rehabilitation procedure is initiated, all creditors will know about it and there may be a sort of stigmatization effect.. This means that coordination can become ineffective.. Pre-ARSreduces the stigma effect. Debt management is not easy, so if you decide to reduce it in advance and organize it with creditors,, It can be much more advantageous than the adjustment process that takes place during the rehabilitation process.. This is a groundbreaking system, but how to implement it in practice seems to be a separate issue.. I think it can be recommended if you are considering rehabilitation due to sudden financial risk.. -What are your future plans for Daeryun?. △We would like to operate the part in the broader sense of restructuring rather than simply in the category of rehabilitation or bankruptcy.. Because it is a difficult company M&AYou may think it doesn't work, but there are places where it works.. It is not the extent to which the debtor cancels the debt. M&A The goal is to activate even the means..

Immediate restrictions on demands for compensation for strike damages may reduce risks such as increased demands for collective bargaining, but may actually serve as an opportunity to build cooperation and trust between labor and management. The 'Trade Union and Labor Relations Adjustment Act Amendment Act', the so-called 'Yellow Envelope Act', which was passed by the National Assembly on the 24th of last month and approved at the Cabinet meeting on the 2nd of this month, is scheduled to go into effect in the first half of next year. This amendment contains content that fundamentally changes the landscape of labor-management relations in Korea, and its ripple effect is expected to grow further depending on future court interpretations and precedents. The Yellow Envelope Act, which is subject to labor-management negotiations ranging from restructuring to M&A, is named after citizens sending donations in 'yellow envelopes' in response to the company's large-scale compensation claims following the Ssangyong Motors strike in 2009. Initially, the discussion was limited to limiting companies' excessive compensation for damages to workers, but the scope was greatly expanded during the National Assembly discussion. There are three key points. ▷ Expansion of the scope of the employer: Anyone who can actually control or determine working conditions, even if he or she is not a party to a labor contract, is considered an employer. Accordingly, there is a possibility that the main contractor and the parent company will have an obligation to negotiate with the unions of subcontractors and subsidiaries. ▷ Expansion of the subject of collective bargaining and labor disputes: Not only wage levels and working hours, but also management decisions such as restructuring and mergers and acquisitions (M&A) are subject to negotiation and dispute. ▷ Limitation of liability for damages: The scope of immunity has been expanded to include not only legitimate industrial action but also other union activities and even defense against illegal actions by employers. Evolution of the concept of ‘actual control’ ‘Substantial control’ is the standard for determining whether or not the primary contractor’s obligation to negotiate is recognized. In the 2010 Hyundai Heavy Industries case, the Supreme Court ruled for the first time that if the main contractor can control and determine the labor conditions of the subcontractor's union, it should be considered an employer. After this ruling, in cases such as CJ Korea Express, Lotte Global Logistics, Hyundai Steel, and Daewoo Shipbuilding & Marine Engineering, the Labor Relations Commission and the court recognized the main contractor's obligation to bargain with the subcontractor union. What these cases have in common is that 'the work of the subcontractor is essential to the main contract's project, so the main contract has no choice but to exercise significant influence on the working conditions or performance measurements of the subcontractor.' The greater the possibility that the main contractor determines the working conditions of workers at subcontractors, the more likely it is that employer-friendliness will be recognized. Demands for individual bargaining from dozens of subcontractor unions are likely to pour in. After the implementation of the Yellow Envelope Act, companies may face the following risks: ▷ Increased demands for collective bargaining: Main contractors may face requests for individual bargaining from dozens of subcontractor unions. This is a factor that can conflict with the system of unified negotiation channels and prolong disputes. ▷Labor-management consultation on management decisions: Management decisions such as layoffs, factory relocations, and M&As may be put on the union negotiation agenda. ▷Difficulty in claiming compensation for unions and workers: It is expected that it will become more difficult to hold companies accountable for damages incurred during industrial disputes. Requires preliminary maintenance of relationships with subcontractors... How should companies prepare to respond to each scenario? Maintaining relationships with subcontractors and subsidiaries is a priority. Elements of direct intervention by the main contractor must be minimized in contracts, work order systems, and on-site management methods, and any risks of illegal dispatch must be checked. It is also necessary to prepare in advance a management decision-making process in which labor and management cooperate. It would be a good idea to prepare a manual that internalizes the procedure for collecting union opinions in important decision-making processes such as restructuring or business relocation. Internal training and simulation are also required. Both management and field managers must be familiar with the contents of the revised law, and training to respond to the union's demands for each scenario is essential. The Yellow Envelope Act is evaluated as a watershed in rebalancing the balance of power between companies and unions. Given that it shakes up existing labor-management practices, it is bound to be a factor that increases legal risks for companies. However, at the same time, it is an opportunity to establish transparent management and a predictable cooperation structure. If the obligations required by the law are faithfully fulfilled while autonomous consultation and trust building between labor and management are carried out simultaneously, the company can reduce the cost of disputes and gain social trust. There is a saying that a crisis is an opportunity. Why not use the Yellow Envelope Act as an opportunity to find a new labor-management model for sustainable growth?[View full article] The yellow envelope law has become a reality...

As corporate management risks due to policy changes such as the U.S. visa screening requirements and strengthened crackdown on illegal stays have become a reality, Daeryun Law Firm announced on the 11th that it has strengthened its advisory for global companies, focusing on immigration and overseas investment groups. Inquiries related to law firms in charge of immigration and visa work are pouring in, and the industry has a stable workforce. Interest in operation and ensuring legal stay is increasing. Large domestic law firms are also strengthening their capabilities, focusing on groups that handle international affairs such as immigration. Daeryun, which established local corporations in New York and Washington D.C., utilizes its local network to support ▲establishment and investment of domestic companies in the U.S. ▲checking expatriate visa applications ▲advising on immigration law and permanent residency acquisition. In particular, we are focusing on preventing and managing labor law risks that may arise during the process of dispatching human resources at home and abroad. A local company official said, "There are quite a few cases where projects are delayed or contracts are canceled in the actual field because companies are unable to obtain appropriate visas. Since visas must be applied appropriately according to the size of the company and the characteristics of each industry, it seems inevitable that dependence on law firms will increase." Experts say that with this incident as an opportunity, Korean companies need to have a more systematic legal response structure. Point out. A lawyer specializing in immigration law explained, “Not only is the U.S. visa system complex, but the issuance process is also difficult, so it seems that companies have been using short-term business visas (B1) or visa-free Electronic Travel Authorization (ESTA),” adding, “This leads to issues with residency qualifications, putting them at risk of deportation or punishment in the future.” Eunhye Lee (zhses3@joseilbo.com)[View full article] In response to the strengthening of US visa regulations...

The specific reason for the delay in the schedule is unknown, but delays in administrative procedures on the U.S. side, the manner in which detainees leave the country, and the postponement of the Foreign Minister's meeting are cited as possible reasons. On the 10th, the Ministry of Foreign Affairs announced in a press notice, "It has become difficult for our nationals detained in the U.S. state of Georgia to depart on the 10th local time due to circumstances on the U.S. side," and "we are maintaining discussions with the U.S. to ensure departure as soon as possible." However, no specific reason or expected schedule for the delay was mentioned. It was reported that the Koreans detained in the U.S. state of Georgia were initially released around 4-5 a.m. on the 10th (local time) and then departed Atlanta International Airport via a Korean Air charter flight around 2:30 p.m. on the same day and arrived at Incheon International Airport on the afternoon of the 11th (Korean time). The Korean Air charter flight departed from Incheon International Airport to Atlanta on the morning of the 10th. However, the return schedule of the detainees was suddenly postponed about 10 hours before the expected departure time from the United States. Some believe that the reason for the delay may be that the release of Korean detainees was delayed due to the incomplete administrative procedures such as visa investigation and confirmation procedures by the U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE). Kim Ji-sun, CEO of Daeyang Immigration Corporation, said on the premise that "it is only an expectation and an estimate" and that "there are administrative procedures for voluntary departure, and for this, permission from a judge is required in the United States as well." He went on to point out, “In principle, you have to spend money to do this (departure procedures) and you may have to pay a deposit to the court,” and “From the U.S. perspective, there is no need to rush, and the U.S. administrative procedures themselves are not fast.” There is also speculation that the law enforcement practices of immigration authorities, such as whether to tie up detainees during escort procedures within U.S. territory, may have become an obstacle to negotiations. Previously, Kim Yong-beom, head of the Presidential Office's policy office, said on the 9th that negotiations were underway regarding transportation between the detention site and the Atlanta airport. Some raise the possibility that negotiations between South Korea and the United States regarding the mode of departure of Korean detainees may not have been completed. After consultation with the United States, the government planned to return Korean detainees en masse in the form of 'voluntary departure'. In this regard, the release of detainees may have been disrupted due to lack of smooth negotiations with the United States. Mia Kim, a U.S. attorney at the Daeryun Law Firm, said, "I believe there will be a difference from the Korean government's position in that the U.S. cannot uniformly apply (voluntary departure method) because there are some (among the detainees) who are subject to deportation." Secretary of Homeland Security Christie Norm, who oversees U.S. immigration policy, said on the 8th that those detained in the Georgia crackdown "will be deported." There is also speculation that the one-day delay in the meeting between Foreign Minister Cho Hyun and U.S. Secretary of State Marco Rubio, who is visiting the United States, may have affected the return schedule. According to a Ministry of Foreign Affairs official, Minister Cho, who arrived in Washington DC on the night of the 8th (local time), originally planned to meet with Secretary Rubio on the 9th to demand a prompt response from the US to resolve this situation, legislation to establish a new employment visa (E-4) exclusively for Koreans, and expansion of the quota for professional employment visas (H-1B), but the meeting between the two ministers was delayed by a day. However, there is a view that the postponement of the schedule may have been because Secretary Rubio had to respond due to the Israeli military's airstrike on Qatar. Meanwhile, according to the Ministry of Foreign Affairs on the 10th, Minister Cho held a meeting with Korean business representatives in Washington D.C. on the 9th and said, "The government is making every effort to quickly and safely return our citizens detained in Georgia and to prevent them from being disadvantaged when they re-enter the United States in the future." Representatives of companies such as LG and Hyundai Motors who attended the meeting requested the government's efforts to establish a separate visa (E-4 visa) quota for Korean professionals and increase the approval rate for visas (E-2 visas) for employees of companies investing in the United States.

The scope and role are expanding, including legal advice and consultation, as well as the preparation and review of necessary documents such as litigation, arbitration, and contracts. Daeryun Law Firm, which celebrates its 9th anniversary this year, has shown rapid growth and has established itself as an emerging powerhouse in the domestic legal market. CEO Kook-il Kim, who met at Daeryun Law Firm's Seoul headquarters branch office in Yeouido, Seoul on the morning of the 9th, said, "The motto of 'Improve service until customers are satisfied' has been the driving force behind Daeryun's growth." It started. CEO Kim emphasized the importance of ‘customer-centered legal services.’ He emphasized, "We do our best in every case, but we are not perfect either, so there are customers who are disappointed with Daeryun's service. However, to avoid repeating the same mistake, we immediately improved the service until the customer was satisfied. By expanding these cases to the entire system, we created a system to prevent the same disappointment from repeating again." In addition to customer-centered service, another strength of Daeryun is 'challenge'. The ‘three-lawyer team system’ was the first step in that challenge. At that time, it was common in the law firm industry for one lawyer to handle only one client's case, so there were many voices of concern. It was also unfamiliar to lawyers who were not used to collaboration. CEO Kim said, “Change was necessary because multitaskers, where one lawyer takes charge of all cases, had clear limitations both physically and in terms of expertise,” and added, “There were gaps in the legal services provided by each lawyer, but we considered it as a process to provide legal services of the same quality nationwide, maintaining the strengths and supplementing the weaknesses.” Daeryun established the ‘One Firm’ system from this period. All cases received from across the country are collectively managed by the main office, and the case allocation system has been reorganized to increase professionalism by assigning lawyers with the most appropriate skills to the case. And the most important part of this process was, of course, ‘customer satisfaction.’ This was the reason why it was the first large law firm to establish a ‘Customer Satisfaction Center’. CEO Kim said, “Through the Customer Satisfaction Center, I received detailed feedback on the legal services provided by Daeryun,” and explained, “It is because we cannot find improvements if we do not listen carefully.” Daeryun conducted a customer satisfaction survey on about 3,800 case clients early this year. Regarding the fact that 98% of respondents expressed ‘satisfaction’, CEO Kim said, “We tried to immediately improve most of the negative feedback received through the Customer Satisfaction Center.” CEO Kim explained, “Most clients feel a great burden just by being investigated by an investigative agency or caught up in a lawsuit.” He added, “It is also important to relieve clients’ anxiety by disclosing the details of the case handling process.” Daeryun last month aimed to ‘achieve 100% customer satisfaction.’ The Customer Satisfaction Center was expanded to the ‘Customer Management Center’. While the Customer Satisfaction Center focused on customers’ ‘after-action opinions’, the Customer Management Center plans to quickly listen to the voices of clients whose cases are in progress. In addition, in order to strengthen communication between lawyers dedicated to each case and clients, we plan to continuously improve the system for customer satisfaction by activating the ‘online communication program’ launched last July. Meanwhile, in the legal community, there has been criticism recently that law firms that take on large quantities of cases while competing for advertisements for branch offices across the country are managing cases poorly. The main basis is the ‘number of applications for legal service damage relief’ filed with the Korea Consumer Agency. Regarding this, CEO Kim said, “The ratio of civil complaints compared to the 20,000 cases in progress at Daeryun is about 0.2%,” and pointed out, “They are lining up only fragmentary civil complaints without any consideration of the total number of cases being handled by each corporation and their ratio.” Lastly, CEO Kim said, “Daeryun has grown by constantly pursuing change centered on customers, so no matter what customers ask, Daeryun responds. “I want to convey that I am satisfied with the already improved service,” he said, adding, “We will constantly change and grow with ‘customers’ at the center by weaving negativity into positivity.” Reporter Cho Hye-jeong (hjcho@kyeonggi.com)[View full article] “Customer feedback, another growth engine for Daeryun”...Kookil Kim, CEO of Daeryun Law Firm [Interview] (Shortcut) 2026-05-02T13:43:22.519Z https://www.daeryunlaw.com/en/broadcast/5634 [Interview] American lawyer Mia Kim, Daeryun Law Firm As more than 300 Korean workers were recently detained in the United States on charges of illegal stay, changes in immigration and visa policies are emerging as important management risks for companies expanding overseas.

On the 10th, U.S. lawyer Mia Kim of Daeryun Law Firm found the root cause of this situation to be the 'Trump administration's policy of strengthening the crackdown on illegal immigrants.' He pointed out the reality that issuing legal work visas such as professional work visas (H-1B) and expatriate visas (L1·E2) is very difficult and takes a long time. Because of this, many short-term workers would have had no choice but to rely on short-term business visas (B1) or Electronic Travel Authorization (ESTA). Attorney Kim said, "Even if you pass the lottery, it takes 3 to 4 months to issue an H-1B visa, and the reality is that it is difficult to issue an L1 or E2 visa because it must meet strict requirements such as proof of expertise." He mentioned the establishment of a new 'Korean-only professional employment visa (E4 visa)' that is being discussed in some quarters. The E4 visa aims to help Korean professionals find legal employment in the United States and improve the investment environment for Korean companies in the United States, but it has not yet been legislated. Attorney Kim predicted, “In the future, multifaceted factors, such as Korea-U.S. relations and the lack of skilled manpower in the U.S., will determine the passage of E4 visas.” Attorney Kim especially emphasized the visa problem of small and medium-sized partners entering the market with large corporations. This is because small and medium-sized businesses with limited manpower and resources are more vulnerable to visa problems and lack the ability to respond to local laws. “Each company has different situations, so suitability for visa requirements may also vary,” he advised. “Uniform applications that do not take this into account can lead to legal risks.” A warning was also added that illegal stay is subject to strict crackdowns, so it is difficult to avoid forced departure or punishment. This incident once again confirmed to companies dreaming of expanding overseas that it is essential to be aware of visa issues and manage risks through thorough legal review.

These are the chief prosecutors, New trends in the lawyer market, starting with the role of lawyers who served as chief judges, great wheel ‘All members of the team attended the trial’ He spoke frankly about the system, etc..Below is a Q&A with the lawyers.-There is often a preconceived notion that highly experienced lawyers only post their names or give advice behind the scenes.. If there is a reason to be deeply involved in the incident directly at the scene.▲Jinwon Kim(Jin below): In the past, the so-called ‘All halls’They just put their name on it, It was a practice in some cases for junior lawyers to carry out actual litigation.. Now you can never do that because all legal information and lawyers are transparently disclosed.. Because a trusting relationship with a client is created through the process of recording and reviewing directly, I always go to the field..▲Lee Il-kwon(Below this): Investigations and trials are highly fluid., Accidental situations also occur frequently.. In these situations, lawyers must be able to judge and make decisions in the moment.. In my case, since I have more relevant experience, the likelihood of being able to use my reflexes is relatively high.. Many of Daeryun's former lawyers are investigating agencies., This is also the reason why I practice in fields such as courts.. Client trust and satisfaction can also be said to be high..▲Nakhyung Kim(Kim below) : Most clients who entrust their cases to lawyers are bound to feel a considerable burden of costs.. This is a case that the client worked so hard to raise the cost for., Just putting your name on the table but not actually handling the work can be said to be a betrayal of your basic duty as a lawyer..-Daeryun Law Firm 'The entire case team attended the trial.' I heard that a system is being implemented.. How do you think this system can help clients?.▲seaweed: From the client's perspective, an investigation or trial is a once-in-a-lifetime moment.. In most cases, appearing in court itself is scary and daunting.. Therefore, it can provide psychological stability by giving the perception that multiple lawyers are providing thorough legal protection..▲this: In principle, I am in favor of everyone attending the trial.. The presence of all attorneys in charge increases the client’s trust in the law firm and at the same time ‘customer focus’This is because it can provide value and satisfaction of. Of course, I am confident that if efficiency can be further increased in the process of establishing the system, such as allocating lawyers within the same area, it will be a necessary system for clients..-Lawyers with different strengths ‘one team’Is there a reason why it is composed of and an example of synergy?.▲seaweed: Related to pornography incident, I worked on the case with attorney Lee Il-kwon.. Attorney Lee reviewed investigation records, I was mainly responsible for formulating the trial strategy.. In the process of reviewing the evidence records together, legal judgments and advice, including confessions and recommendations for reflection, were provided, resulting in a suspended sentence..▲this: The reason for pursuing one team is to promote collaboration and growth.. In the case of Daeryun, experienced veteran lawyers and junior lawyers, A lawyer who acts as a bridge in the middle comes together to form a sum.. This is because the experience of veteran lawyers and the mobility of junior lawyers can create good synergy.. During this process, junior lawyers review investigation records, Write a statement of opinion, You will have know-how in practical writing, such as witness interrogation.. Ultimately, all these efforts for the sake of the original team ‘Client's Trust’Aiming for one goal:.-What values ​​do you think are most important to a lawyer today?.▲seaweed: In the past, in the legal profession, he was the chief judge of the court., High-ranking former prosecutors and former prosecutors only put their names forward and do not even appear in court., I understand that in severe cases, there were some unreasonable practices, such as office managers writing letters.. However, since the introduction of law schools, tens of thousands of people are competing.. The practice of giving honor to all officials is no longer found., Clients are well aware of the reality in the legal profession that they cannot get the results they want by relying on courtesy.. Therefore, not only do we currently have expertise and skills in related cases, but also how much ‘customer focus’The only criterion is whether a lawyer can convey his know-how to clients, and this is the direction of the times that cannot be reversed..▲jin: In the past, it may have been said that everything was in sync with just one title., The current situation is completely different. Even if you have a long period of legal experience ‘Practical processing ability’Because I think we need to have, I want to maintain an attitude of always learning and learning.. This is because such efforts are passed on to the client..▲this: In the past, so-called lawyers ‘name value’Ina ‘authority’was important. And lawyers who have this are often ‘former lawyer’It was called. Because there was virtually no way to obtain information about the lawyer., There were also many cases of indiscriminate appointment of lawyers through legal brokers.. But now we live in an era where all information is made public through the Internet.. What clients want from lawyers like us ‘name value’It will be their knowledge and experience, not.

Insights from three ‘experienced’ Daeryun lawyers (link) 2026-05-12T11:44:42.435Z https://www.daeryunlaw.com/en/broadcast/5629 One of the most acute issues in divorce proceedings is the issue of custody. In cases where there is a fight over custody, it is rather good. This is because it means that the parents at least have the will to raise the child. On the other hand, if you try to avoid childrearing responsibilities by passing them on, you are bound to be in trouble. Custody is not just a battle for rights, but an issue directly related to the life of the child. Division of property or alimony can be settled in money, but custody of a child has a decisive impact on the life of the parents as well as the growth and development of the child, so the judgment must be cautious. So, what standards will the court apply when appointing a custodian? It is often said that ‘women have an advantage when it comes to custody.’ To conclude, half are right and half are wrong. The standard that the court consistently emphasizes is the ‘welfare of the child’, that is, the stable growth and happiness of the child. First of all, the age of the child and the continuity of the childcare environment are important. In the case of preschool children or lower grades of elementary school, the parent who has primarily raised the child is often designated as the custodian. This is why mothers who have lived with their children are often designated as custodians, even if they are somewhat economically disadvantaged. Next, the parents' will and ability to raise children are also important criteria for judgment. Although high income does not mean that you will be granted custody, it is taken into consideration how diligently you are willing to take care of the child and whether your work or life pattern is suitable for raising the child. In this case, even if the child is economically active, if there is an auxiliary caregiver such as a grandparent who can cooperate in raising the child, it is considered positively. The child's will is also respected. In many cases, the court directly confirms the opinion of the child, such as who the child has formed a more stable attachment with and whether he or she is satisfied with his or her current life. In the past, there was a strong tendency to entrust custody to the mother when the child was young, but recent trends show a tendency to place more emphasis on the actual degree of childrearing participation and environment rather than the gender of the parents. The number of cases where fathers who have actively cared for their children are designated as custodians is steadily increasing. This can be said to be a trend that reflects social changes and changes in the division of roles within the family.[View full article] [Expert Contribution] In divorce proceedings and custody battles, does the woman have the advantage?...

On the 11th of last month, the Busan Yeonje Police Station decided not to send the game company representative, Mr. A, who was suspected of fraud. Mr. A was accused of raising about 7.7 million won in funding for four types of board games through the company's website and crowdfunding site between February 2021 and September 2023, then failing to release the product and failing to refund the investment. Investors were promised payment of goods within one year after funding from Mr. A, but when payment was not made and communication was insufficient, they filed a class action lawsuit. Mr. A denied the charges. Although payment for the product was delayed, they claimed that they did not raise funds without the intention or ability to make the product in the first place. Mr. A explained, “We started actual production with the funding, but we were unable to produce it due to overseas factories being shut down due to COVID-19. Even though we produced it later, delivery was delayed due to product quality issues.” The police determined that Mr. A was not suspected of fraud. A police official explained, “Usually, the production of products through crowdfunding takes several months or more,” and “Considering that the plaintiffs reported damage nearly three years after the start of funding, it is difficult to say that they were not aware of the characteristics of the funding purchase method.” He added, “Even apart from liability for civil damages due to delayed delivery, it is difficult to admit that there was an act of deception.” Attorney Lee Il-kwon of Daeryun Law Firm, who represented Mr. A, said, “For a fraud to be established, it must be proven that the suspect did not have the intention or ability to produce the product at the time of the contract, that is, the intention of deception.” He added, “Mr. “We faithfully explained our efforts, and through this, we were able to receive recognition that the delay in product delivery and refund was not intentional.” Digital Content Team[View full article] Board game ‘not delivered, non-refundable’ after receiving funding investment… Game company CEO ‘Bulsongchi’ (link) 2026-05-12T11:08:15.928Z https://www.daeryunlaw.com/en/broadcast/5620 Attorney Seo-Hyung Lee “We will create a regulatory environment that harmonizes safety and innovation” Attorney Seo-Hyung Lee, head of the Daeryun Medical Pharmaceutical Group at the law firm, was appointed as an advisory attorney at the Ministry of Food and Drug Safety on the 13th of last month.

Court said, "It does not explicitly express sexual parts or actions." A man who was handed over to trial on charges of distributing composite pornography on SNS was found not guilty in the first trial. On the 22nd of last month, Daejeon District Court Hongseong Branch acquitted Mr. A, in his 40s, who was indicted on charges of distributing pornography under the Act on Promotion of Information and Communications Network Utilization and Information Protection, etc. (Information and Communications Network Act). Mr. A was accused of receiving a composite photo of a specific woman's face and body parts in underwear in May of last year from an unknown person and posting it on his SNS account. At the time, it was confirmed that Mr. A had also entered information about the woman's name, age, and physical condition. Mr. A denied the charges. It is true that he posted some photos received on SNS, but the intention is that it is difficult to view these photos as 'pornography.' He emphasized that there were no poses reminiscent of sexual activity. In addition, Mr. A added that, considering that he did not directly composite the photo and that the photo was so elaborately composited that it was difficult to clearly confirm whether it was composited, it is difficult to say that he posted it intentionally for obscenity. The court found Mr. A not guilty. The court explained, "Looking at the photos, it is difficult to evaluate that they explicitly express or depict sexual parts or sexual acts." “Even when compared to ordinary women’s underwear advertisements, the difference does not appear to be significant enough to be considered pornographic,” said attorney Byeon Gwan-hoon of Daeryun Law Firm, who acted as legal representative for Mr. A. “According to precedent, in order to call it a ‘pornographic material,’ it is not enough to simply give a vulgar and promiscuous feeling related to sexual interest, and sexual parts or actions must be expressed in an excessive and explicit way,” he said. “Based on these contents, the post in question requires criminal punishment.” He emphasized that it is difficult to determine that it constitutes 'pornography'. #Distribution of pornography #Synthetic pornography #Accident #Not guilty Shin Min-ji (sourminjee@ikbc.co.kr)[View full article] A woman in her underwear in her 40s who posted composite photos and personal information on social media was found not guilty...

In particular, more severe punishments are being imposed for sex crimes that occur within the military. Military criminal law has higher sentences than general criminal law, and only stipulates a lower limit of imprisonment without fines. According to Article 92-3 of the Military Criminal Act, if soldiers or those with equivalent status commit acts that cause sexual humiliation through assault or intimidation, they are subject to imprisonment for a limited period of one year or more without a fine. Therefore, if you are serving in the military or are a paramilitary worker, you should be aware of this information. In addition, sexual offenses in the military are grounds for military disciplinary action. You may be subject to disciplinary action separate from criminal punishment. Although the aggravated punishment may vary depending on the factors, the punishment can range from a relatively light reprimand to a severe disciplinary action such as salary reduction, demotion, or even dismissal or dismissal. I will explain by citing a case of forced harassment by a soldier among the cases I have handled. In this case, the suspect, who was a military official, forcibly molested the victim, who was a subordinate. At that time, the suspect made physical contact against the victim's will, such as rubbing his face against the victim's face. The suspect claimed it was just a prank, but the victim filed a complaint with the police, saying she felt sexually shamed and insulted by the behavior. It may have started as a joke, but the suspect's behavior had a big impact. This is because it was a situation where he could be subject to not only criminal punishment but also disciplinary action. There was a high possibility that the worst-case scenario would occur where the suspect, who was close to retirement age, would not receive pension payments ahead of retirement. According to relevant laws, pension payments could be restricted if the person was dismissed for serious corruption or crimes. For the suspect who should have received the lowest possible punishment, the author looked closely at the case. Since the circumstances were clearly proven, an attitude of reflection was important. The priority was to admit all charges and offer a sincere apology to the victim. Thanks to these efforts, we were able to obtain forgiveness from the victim and elicit his intention not to be punished. In addition, as a result of comprehensively examining various factors such as completion of anti-recidivism training and petitions from people around him, the case was concluded with a suspended indictment. Park Gyeong-ok, a military lawyer at the Daeryun Law Firm, said, "The role of a representative is essential to resolve military sexual crime cases in the desired direction. In the case above, if you proceed with the case alone and recklessly fight for innocence by saying, 'I did nothing wrong,' it will have the opposite effect of aggravated punishment. “The possibility was high,” he said. “Since the initial response largely determines the outcome, I think it is necessary to prepare the right strategy through sufficient consultation with a military lawyer.” Reporter Gayoung Jin (lawissue) (news@lawissue.co.kr)[View full article] Military sex crimes can be punished, including dismissal or dismissal...

Classification provisions and explanation obligations based on primary site The most common cancer in Korea is thyroid cancer.(2022by year). Thyroid cancer often metastasizes to other organs or tissues.. insurer(insurance company)If the policyholder develops metastatic thyroid cancer ‘Thyroid cancer diagnosis insurance benefits’Separately from ‘General cancer diagnosis insurance benefits’Among the terms and conditions of the cancer insurance contract to prevent payment of ‘Secondary and unspecified site malignant neoplasms(cancer)In the case of primary malignant neoplasm(cancer)If this is confirmed, the primary site(Area where it first occurred)Classify based on’The contents of the so-called ‘Classification provisions based on primary site’It stipulates. in other words, When thyroid cancer has spread to lymph nodes, Thyroid cancer as primary cancer, Considering lymph node metastatic cancer as a secondary malignant neoplasm, it stipulates that only insurance payments based on the thyroid cancer site will be paid and no insurance payments will be made for lymph node metastatic cancer..However, there has been a long-standing dispute as to whether this classification clause based on the primary site corresponds to an important matter of an insurance contract and is subject to an obligation to explain.. There has been no Supreme Court precedent on this issue until recently., In the lower court cases, there was a tense conflict between cases that said the duty to explain was subject to it and cases that said that it was not the subject..2. In fact, the plaintiff, who is the insurer, and the defendant, who is the policyholder, 2013A cancer insurance contract was signed in 2018..The insurance contract in this case is, Cancer diagnosis fee when cancer diagnosis is confirmed after the coverage start date 300010,000 won paid, When diagnosis of cancer other than minor cancer is confirmed after the coverage start date, cancer diagnosis fee other than minor cancer 4000It is decided to pay 10,000 won.. The special terms and conditions for cancer diagnosis expenses in the insurance contract in this case stipulate classification provisions based on the primary site..The defendant 2023Thyroid cancer in hospital(Corporal code C73), lymph node metastasis(Corporal code C77)After being diagnosed with, I underwent thyroid unilobectomy and central lymph node dissection.. The defendant charged the plaintiff with standard cancer diagnosis fees for thyroid cancer due to lymph node metastasis..But the manuscript ‘Since the classification clause based on the primary site is general and common in transactions and can be expected by the policyholder, it is not subject to the obligation to explain., Plaintiff gave defendant lymph node metastasis(C77)Insurance money according to 7000There is no obligation to pay 10,000 won.’A lawsuit was filed against the defendant to confirm the absence of debt, claiming that.3. my1Judgment system of trial and original trial1planted “① It can be said that classification provisions based on the primary site are generally common in transactions., ② It is reasonable to view the classification clause based on the primary site as a clause that policyholders can fully anticipate, even if there is no separate explanation.. Therefore, the defendant cannot claim a violation of the plaintiff's obligation to explain the classification criteria in this case.”Even if the plaintiff did not fulfill his obligation to explain the classification clause based on the primary site to the defendant, the plaintiff's claim was accepted, saying that the plaintiff's insurance payment obligation to the defendant under the insurance contract in this case does not exist.. The defendant appealed this, but, Centrifugation is also1The defendant's appeal was dismissed, saying that the deliberation's findings of fact and judgment were recognized as fair..4. Supreme Court's Judgment The Supreme Court presented the following two reasons and concluded that the original trial's judgment had an error that influenced the judgment by misunderstanding the legal principles regarding the obligation to explain insurance terms and conditions., The decision was made to overturn the original judgment and remand the case to the original court..go. The classification clause based on the primary site is an important part of the insurance contract.“The classification clause based on the primary site is related to what is to be covered as an insured event in an insurance contract and determines whether there is actually an obligation to pay insurance money., As a core matter of an insurance contract that is directly related to the scope of coverage or insurance payment amount,, It should be considered an important content of the insurance contract in this case because it can directly affect whether or not to conclude an insurance contract or determine the price for it..”me. General insurance policy holders cannot expect that metastatic cancer will not be covered as cancer.“Main contract terms and conditions of the insurance contract in this case ‘asterisk 14’In the classification number ‘C76~C80’of unclear, Secondary and malignant neoplasms of unspecified site’is specified as an independent cancer.. Then, as a general public, without an explanation from the insurer regarding the classification provisions based on the primary site, ‘If you are diagnosed with secondary cancer that has metastasized from thyroid cancer, you cannot receive cancer coverage based on the exclusion clause for thyroid cancer, etc. and the classification clause based on the primary site.’It doesn't seem easy to predict that. In fact, the provisions for classification based on the primary site are so-called thyroid cancer, etc. ‘small cancer’It was introduced in accordance with the insurance terms and conditions improvement plan prepared by the Financial Supervisory Service to resolve the confusion that occurred in insurance payment practices due to the lack of established standards for classifying cases that have spread from one part to another.. Considering the terms and conditions of the insurance contract in this case and the introduction of the classification clause based on the primary site,, Since the classification clause based on the primary site is a general and common matter in transactions, it is difficult to say that the policyholder could have sufficiently anticipated it without a separate explanation..”5. The classification clause based on the primary site of flats results in the fact that cancer patients who have metastasized from a site recognized as a small cancer to a site recognized as a general cancer will have no choice but to receive compensation only for small cancer insurance based on the primary site according to the classification special agreement based on the primary site. ‘Reduction regulations or exemption regulations that limit general cancer insurance payments’corresponds to. According to the classification provisions based on the primary site, in the case of secondary and unspecified malignant neoplasms, as in this case, they are classified based on the thyroid gland, which is the site where the cancer first occurred, and general cancer diagnosis fees cannot be paid., Even if the defendant had been informed of the above special provisions, it cannot be assumed that he would have entered into each insurance contract in this case.. Therefore, the classification clause based on the primary site actually corresponds to the standard for determining whether or not to pay insurance money or the amount, and is an important content of the insurance contract., The classification provisions based on the primary site cannot be viewed simply as confirmation regulations regarding the definition or classification criteria of cancer..In an insurance contract that did not have a classification clause based on the primary site, there was no established standard for classifying cancer that had spread from the thyroid gland to other parts, such as lymph nodes. As confusion arose over whether or not to pay general cancer insurance benefits, the Financial Supervisory Service 2011year 4In the case of metastatic cancer where the menstrual primary site is confirmed, guidelines were issued to improve insurance policy provisions to pay insurance benefits based on the primary cancer., Accordingly, most insurance companies began to include classification provisions based on the primary site in their cancer insurance terms and conditions.. In this way, there have been frequent disputes between policyholders and insurance companies regarding whether cancer that has spread from the thyroid gland to other parts is considered general cancer., In light of the fact that the classification clause based on the primary site reduces the scope of insurance payment by considering metastatic cancer, which could be recognized as general cancer in the absence of a special contract, as primary site cancer., In the case of secondary and unspecified malignant neoplasms, the classification based on the primary site and exclusion from general cancer cannot be said to be a matter that the policyholder was aware of at the time of entering into the insurance contract in this case, or a matter that was common and common in transactions and could have been fully expected even without separate explanation, or a matter that is merely an amplification of the standard of medical judgment.. Rather, there has been a lot of confusion regarding the classification method for metastatic cancer., It should be seen that the need to explain the contents in detail was more urgent in order to avoid a situation where the policyholder enters into an insurance contract without knowing this and suffers an unexpected disadvantage..In addition, the classification provisions based on the primary site include technical terms, etc., so the content is not simple., Even though malignant neoplasms exist in the thyroid gland and other parts of the body other than the thyroid gland, it is difficult to understand without further explanation that it is treated only as thyroid cancer.. In particular, if the meaning of the terms and conditions is unclear, such as because the insurance contract provisions can be interpreted multiple times and each interpretation is reasonable, they must be interpreted in a way that is favorable to the customer.(supreme court 2008all81633 See Judgment).Considering the above, it is reasonable that the target judgment determined that the classification clause based on the primary site is an important content of the insurance contract and is subject to the obligation to explain..Until recently, there was no Supreme Court precedent on whether the classification clause based on the primary site was subject to the obligation to explain, and the judgments of the lower courts were mixed., The Supreme Court 2025year 3month 13Day 2023all250746 Starting with the ruling 2022all263813, 2023all273633, 2023all245058 Judgment and target judge 2025all209662 By issuing rulings, etc., it was made clear that the classification provisions based on the primary site are subject to the obligation to explain..The ruling is considered to be of great significance in that it presents unified standards for statutory interpretation related to the above issues..

Attention is focused on the results of the police investigation in connection with the recent hacking incident at a telecommunications company. It is said that all 20 victims were KT users, and in particular, KT's server was destroyed in relation to this hacking incident, which was raised in the National Assembly. In a situation where telecommunication companies deny the hacking itself, the suspicion of server destruction, which could be key evidence, is causing a stir. Reporter Seulgi Cho reports. [Reporter] Choi Min-hee, Chairman of the Science, ICT, Broadcasting and Communications Commission, strongly criticized KT and LG U+ for not voluntarily reporting hacking suspicions. [Choi Min-hee / Chairman of the National Assembly Science, Technology, Information, Broadcasting and Communications Committee: How do these telecommunication companies view the Ministry of Science and Technology of the Republic of Korea and KISA (Korea Internet & Security Agency) to act like this? .] At the same time, we raised suspicions about KT's server destruction and ordered a thorough investigation to determine whether this was intentional. [Choi Min-hee / Chairman of the National Assembly Science, Technology, Information, Broadcasting and Communications Committee: I heard that in the case of KT, the server was destroyed. (Ryu Je-myeong, 2nd Vice Minister of Science, ICT and Future Planning) Yes, we have confirmed that fact as well.] [Choi Min-hee / National Assembly Science, Technology, Information, Broadcasting and Communications Committee Chairman: Of course, it is a bit strange at this time. ‘Isn’t this done to remove traces of hacking? ' This kind of suspicion may arise... .] There are also voices from civic groups calling for a clear investigation of the facts in terms of user protection. [Han Seok-hyun / Seoul YMCA Citizen Relay Office Director: If the Ministry of Science and Technology has limitations in conducting investigations as a supervising ministry, the Personal Information Protection Committee will actively interpret the Personal Information Protection Act to address the damage from leaks in such situations... .] The server is key evidence that contains the hacker's infiltration path, the malicious code used, and the type of data leaked. If it was intentionally destroyed, it could be seen as an attempt to destroy evidence. [Son Gye-jun / Attorney at Daeryun Law Firm: We should look at (the issue) separately. We need to examine the evidence to see who is responsible, and identify who destroyed the evidence.] Although KT has stated that it is cooperating with the government investigation, it has not provided a clear answer to the related suspicions. Meanwhile, in Gwangmyeong, Gyeonggi-do, a case was reported to the police in which hundreds of thousands of won were withdrawn through small payments from the mobile phones of about 20 KT users, and an investigation is underway.

Controversy over 'server destruction' due to hacking suspicions (link) 2026-05-03T18:34:36.113Z https://www.daeryunlaw.com/en/broadcast/5609 Daeryun Law Firm announced on the 4th that it successfully completed a seminar on the theme of 'Commercial Act Amendment and Yellow Envelope Act Response Strategy' held at Daeryun's Seoul headquarters branch office on the 3rd. This seminar was prepared to examine the key issues of the Commercial Act Amendment Bill and the Trade Union and Labor Relations Adjustment Act, also known as the 'Yellow Envelope Act', which passed the National Assembly in succession in July and August, and to explore practical response strategies for companies. The seminar was held online and offline, and about 100 people in charge and practitioners from related industries such as finance, construction, service, and cargo attended. This seminar, which was divided into two sessions, featured attorneys Daeryun Bang In-tae (41st class of the Judicial Research and Training Institute) and Ho Gyu-chan (36th class) as presenters. In the first session, attorney Bang In-tae introduced the main contents and impact of the Yellow Envelope Act. Attorney Bang pointed out the key issues contained in this amendment, such as expanding the scope of parties to collective bargaining for employers, limiting claims for damages due to industrial action, and expanding the negotiation agenda, and explained the risks that companies may face after the law is implemented. He said, "The revised Labor Union Act contains many contents that can significantly shake up existing labor-management relations practices," and added, "It is most important to educate all executives and employees so that they can fully understand the contents of the revised law and strengthen trust and cooperation between labor and management." He gave advice. In the second session, lawyer Ho Gyu-chan presented the main contents of the commercial law amendment and its significance. Lawyer Ho analyzed in detail the major amendments such as the expansion of directors' duty of loyalty, improvements to the outside director system of listed companies, expansion of the 3% rule, and introduction of electronic general shareholders' meetings, and presented practical directions for responding to changes in corporate governance. Attorney Ho said, "With this amendment, it is expected that there will be many changes in corporate management, such as expanding the scope of directors' loyalty duty to protect the interests of total shareholders beyond the company." He added, "However, as issues such as what the interests of total shareholders are remain, future precedents and investigative agencies “It appears that close observation and analysis of the judgment and the Ministry of Justice’s authoritative interpretation will be necessary,” he explained. “This seminar was an opportunity to look at the institutional changes resulting from the two amendments and examine their ripple effects from a variety of perspectives,” said Daeryun CEO Kim Kuk-il. “I hope it will provide meaningful insight in preparing for the coming environment and serve as an important milestone in predicting the future of each company.” Reporter Park Jun-sik (parkjs@wowtv.co.kr)[View full article] Korea Economic TV - “Multi-faceted review of ripple effects”… Daeryun, commercial law revision/yellow envelope law seminar successfully completed (link) Tax Ilbo - Daeryun, commercial law revision/yellow envelope law seminar successfully completed... “Multi-faceted review of ripple effects” (Shortcut) 2026-05-09T13:13:14.519Z https://www.daeryunlaw.com/en/broadcast/5607 Worker: “There was no action taken to reduce work.” Company: “They did not disclose their health status.” Court: “Management has difficulty predicting accidents.” A worker who collapsed from a cerebral hemorrhage while working filed a claim for damages from the company for industrial accidents, but lost. On the 19th of last month, the Western Branch of the Daegu District Court ruled that the plaintiff, A, in his 50s, had lost the lawsuit filed by a man in his 50s for damages against company B, an automobile parts manufacturer. Mr. A collapsed while working in 2020. He was taken to the hospital and diagnosed with cerebral hemorrhage and ‘Moyamoya disease’, a rare cerebrovascular disease. At the time, the Korea Workers' Compensation and Welfare Service recognized only cerebral hemorrhage as an occupational disease and paid insurance money to Mr. A. The intention was that moyamoya disease should be considered an underlying disease. Afterwards, Mr. A filed a lawsuit against the company for industrial accident damages. This is because Company B did not take any special measures, such as reducing work, even though the person was in poor health due to high blood pressure before the accident occurred. Mr. A claimed that he developed brain disease due to a harmful work environment, such as shift work and a noisy environment. At the same time, they requested compensation of about 200 million won, including treatment costs, lost profits, and alimony. Company B refuted this. They countered that the cause of the cerebral hemorrhage was moyamoya disease, which Mr. A suffered from. In addition, Mr. A claimed that the accident could not have been predicted because he did not inform the company about his health condition. They also explained that they did not violate safety consideration obligations such as providing sufficient rest time during the work process. The court ruled in Company B's favor. The court said, “Even considering that it was shift work, it is difficult to conclude that the plaintiff’s workload was excessive compared to normal standards, and the company also provided workers with earplugs to protect their hearing,” and added, “There were no cases where symptoms or diseases similar to the plaintiff’s were found in other workers.” It continued, “As a result of the physical examination of the plaintiff, it was determined that the underlying disease was the cause of the cerebral hemorrhage, and the plaintiff himself appears to have been unaware of his physical condition before the accident,” adding, “The defendant company did not know about the possibility of an accident occurring.” He added, “It is difficult to admit that Company B violated its duty of protection by not taking safety measures even though it could have been predicted.” Attorney Song Seok-min of Daeryun Law Firm, which represented Company B, said, “Industrial accident compensation under the Industrial Accident Compensation Insurance Act has the nature of a social security system, so it is different from default liability that is premised on the employer’s intention or negligence.” He added, “In addition to the fact that Company B was not aware of Mr. A’s health condition, there were additional factors causing stress, such as special workload or sudden environmental changes. “I emphasized the fact that no harm was done,” he explained.

The bill first includes a clear definition of digital assets and the rights of digital asset users., It will contain information on the obligations of digital asset business operators, etc.. Another key content of the bill is that in order to operate a digital asset industry, one must obtain approval from, or register or report to, the Financial Services Commission., While clarifying that the management and supervision entity of the digital asset ecosystem is the Financial Services Commission,, The purpose is to establish market order and ensure financial safety.. previous year 7In effect since March 'Act on Protection of Virtual Asset Users, etc.'(Virtual Asset User Protection Act)To put out the urgent fire of protecting user assets and regulating unfair trade practices, 1If it was stage regulation, This basic law covers the regulation of issuance, distribution, disclosure, and transaction support of digital assets, starting with entry into the digital asset industry. 2It is significant in that it is a step-by-step comprehensive regulation.. in other words, With the establishment of a basic law in the digital asset industry that will play the same role as the Capital Markets Act, all related companies now face new regulations and responsibilities..Industry reactions surrounding the implementation of the Basic Law are mixed.. Securities, financial companies, and large companies are expected to benefit by seizing the opportunity to dominate the market and advance into new businesses., This is because many other small and medium-sized businesses may face significant difficulties.. What is problematic is the enormous cost incurred to equip human and material facilities and establish an internal control system.. Beyond simply meeting capital requirements and having computer resources,, Recruitment of professional personnel such as compliance officer, risk management officer, and chief information protection officer and establishment of a large-scale control organization, Anti-money laundering and establishing abnormal transaction detection systems are a burden that threatens the survival of small and medium-sized businesses.. This is likely to ultimately accelerate market reorganization centered on large corporations with capital power..Another concern is that the regulatory approach to be introduced domestically may conflict with global standards.. For example, the European Union 'MiCA'(Markets in Crypto-Assets Regulation) The bill provides for a single license system that allows businesses to operate in other member states if approved in one member state.('Passporting')Formed a common market by introducing. However, since the Basic Law applies regulations, including licensing, to all overseas companies that provide services to Koreans, concerns are raised that it could lead to a disconnection from the global market..So, what preparations do digital asset-related companies need to make at this point in order to effectively adapt to the Basic Law in the future??first, It is important to first understand the legal nature of the digital assets and related business structures that the company is handling.. The bill stipulates the sale, brokerage, storage, collective management, and wallet of digital assets.(Wallet)Total management, delegation, advisory, etc. 10After defining various digital asset industries, obtain approval or register/report according to each business.(Hereinafter, approval, etc.)It is mandatory to complete. After the passage of the Basic Act, digital self-employed businesses that have been outside the system can legally conduct business only if they meet the human and material requirements in accordance with the law and receive approval.. Therefore, in order to conduct business without disruption during the enforcement period of the Basic Act, it is necessary to consult with an expert group such as a law firm, meet the necessary requirements for approval in advance, and proceed with the application process in a timely manner..second, Establish a governance and internal control system at the level of a financial company., A risk management system must be established for financial and management soundness and computer stability.. This is an issue that goes beyond simple regulations and is directly related to corporate reliability., Furthermore, it is a problem of the risk of being systematically expelled from the digital asset ecosystem.. We form a management team of people who not only have expertise in digital assets but also have ethics and reliability., Equipped with an independent compliance monitoring and risk management organization, Customer verification and suspicious transaction reporting procedures must be implemented technically to thoroughly prepare for due diligence by regulatory authorities..finally, All investment contracts and terms and conditions, And the company's internal regulations must be completely reviewed.. The Basic Act stipulates reporting procedures and standard terms and conditions when enacting or changing terms and conditions., With this, it is expected that large-scale supervision of contracts and terms and conditions within the industry will be exercised.. Past cases in which the Fair Trade Commission recommended correction of unfair terms and conditions of virtual asset business operators can be used as a lesson.. In addition, there is a need to elaborate internal regulations to the level of a financial company and ensure that internal control is implemented from the daily business level by reflecting the business conduct compliance requirements of each business operator..At the time of proposing the basic law, the lead sponsor and the Digital Asset Committee announced that they aimed to pass it within the year, so there is not much time.. Rather than hastily reacting after the law goes into effect, it is wise to prepare step by step from now on.. Most importantly, the Framework Act on Digital Assets 'regulation'not 'opportunity'It is a change in perspective.. As market reliability increases through institutional incorporation, more capital and excellent talent will flow in..

Previously, on the 28th of last month, the Personal Information Protection Committee imposed a fine of KRW 134.791 billion on SK Telecom for violating personal information protection laws, including violation of safety measure obligations and violation of leak notification. A fine of 9.6 million won was imposed. According to the Personal Information Committee's investigation results on the 3rd, it was confirmed that 25 types of information, including mobile phone numbers, subscriber identification numbers (IMSI), and SIM authentication keys (Ki), of 23.24 million users of SK Telecom's LTE and 5G services were leaked. The hacker first infiltrated SK Telecom's internal network in August 2021 and installed malicious programs on several servers, and SKT last year Even after confirming that a hacker had accessed the Hexim authentication server (HSS) in 2022, it was confirmed that no separate inspection was conducted. In addition, SKT operated the Internet, management network, and internal network all connected to the same network, and it was revealed that external access to SKT's internal management network server was allowed without restrictions. In addition, the Personal Information Commissioner's Office also pointed out the delay in reporting personal information leaks. Even though SKT was aware of the personal information leak on April 19, it did not notify the committee within 72 hours. Afterwards, the committee decided to notify subscribers of the leak on May 2, but notification of the confirmation of the leak was not made until the 28th of the same month. With this announcement from the Personal Information Committee, attention is also focused on various lawsuits surrounding SKT. After the information leak incident became public knowledge at the end of April, several law firms, including Daeryun Law Firm, filed a class action lawsuit on behalf of SKT subscribers. In this situation, some analysts say that the results of this investigation by the Information Commissioner's Office will serve as an advantageous basis for victims in the ongoing lawsuit for damages. Daeryun Law Firm, which is leading the class action lawsuit against SKT, said, "As a result of the investigation by the Personal Information Committee, SKT's overall poor security management was officially confirmed." “The decision to impose the largest fine in history is a measure that clarifies the responsibilities of business operators,” he analyzed. He emphasized, “This will be a key basis for supporting victims’ claims for damages in the ongoing class action lawsuit, and the court’s judgment on the rights of individual victims must now follow quickly.” Reporter Kwon Byeong-seok (bsk730@fnnews.com)[View full article] Largest fine ever imposed for ‘SKT hacking’… “This will be the core basis for claiming compensation” (Go to here) 2026-05-01T22:42:55.910Z https://www.daeryunlaw.com/en/broadcast/5599 It is very difficult to convert the human pain index into numbers. However, according to the ‘Holmes-Rahe Scale’ created by renowned American psychiatrists Holmes and Rahe to convert human stress into a score, the number one stress level experienced by humans is ‘death of spouse’, followed closely by ‘divorce from spouse’ and ‘discord with spouse’. In other words, if you experience both divorce and discord with your spouse at the same time, you will experience the highest level of mental pain that a person can experience. The most common case in which you experience these terrible experiences at the same time is ‘when you divorce due to your spouse’s infidelity.’ When you become aware of your spouse's cheating, you have two choices: the first is to ‘forgive for now and live with it’, and the second is to ‘immediately file a divorce suit and claim compensation for incest’. The divorce is obtained by collecting alimony from the adulterer and by claiming alimony based on fault from the spouse. In practice, the reality is that there are far more cases of the second case than of the first case. What is more unfortunate is that for families with children, the peaceful family is broken up by an adulterous woman or an adulterous man, and as a result, the child is forced to grow up in an unstable environment. Currently, under Korean law, it is impossible to criminally punish perpetrators of family breakdown. This is because the adultery system, which stipulated criminal punishment, was abolished a long time ago. In this situation, if you secretly look at your spouse's cell phone to find evidence of his or her affair, the 'victim of the most devastated' turns out to be a 'perpetrator of information and communication network infringement' and is subject to criminal punishment. As a result, the only option left is to receive ‘almonia’ through a civil lawsuit, and even this is very rare in being cited for the entire amount claimed. In order to achieve the result of ‘all wins,’ the evidence of ‘cheating’ must have been completely collected in a legal way and the adulterer must be aware of the fact that his or her spouse is married. In addition, the mental damage caused by the cheating must be proven with ‘objective data.’ If all of this is completed perfectly, ‘A third party’s act of cheating with one of the couple, infringing on the marital life that is the essence of marriage, or interfering with its maintenance and infringing on the spouse’s rights to inflict mental pain, will in principle be said to constitute a tort (Supreme Court ruling 2013M2441, decided on May 29, 2015).’ According to the Supreme Court precedent, it is possible to receive considerable alimony. In addition, the unjust act specified in Article 840, Paragraph 1 of the Civil Act, which stipulates the grounds for divorce, includes adultery, but is a broader concept than that, and includes any act that is disloyal to the marital chastity obligation to the extent that it is difficult to continue the marital relationship according to social norms, even if it does not amount to adultery (Supreme Court, May 24, 1988, Decision 88M7) ruling). In addition, whether an act is illegal must be evaluated by taking into account the degree and circumstances of the specific case (Supreme Court Decision 92M68, November 10, 1992). According to this legal principle, the amount of alimony is recognized, and it is determined whether the amount is full or partial. Therefore, ‘collection of evidence’ can be said to be the key to a lawsuit for compensation for incest. If illegality is revealed at the evidence collection stage, even though you are a victim, you may be recognized as a perpetrator and this may be a factor in reducing your compensation. Therefore, it is important for a legal expert to participate in the evidence collection stage from the beginning of the case and legally prove without criminal problems the evidence of misconduct that violated the duty of marital chastity and the circumstances that the adulterer knew whether the spouse was married. In addition, you must submit a medical certificate proving that there has been significant psychological damage so that you can be cited for the ‘full amount claimed’ in compensation for damages to the adulterer. Domestic lawyer Kim Jandi of the Daeryun Law Firm said, “Divorce due to a spouse’s cheating is the sum of the highest pain index experienced by a human being, so it is not easily cured over time, but a ‘realistic’ way to overcome this pain is to take as many legally possible measures against the other party as possible. Therefore, as soon as you are aware of your spouse’s cheating. “I hope you can secure legitimate evidence and achieve the best results with the help of a lawyer,” he advised.

Police said, “The suspect did not request a change of type first... making it difficult to recognize the ‘illegal method.’” A suspect in his 30s who was accused of arbitrarily changing his type when he was ineligible after winning an apartment subscription was acquitted. According to the legal community on the 2nd, the Gyeonggi Hwaseong Dongtan Police Station decided not to send A, a woman in her 30s, who was booked on charges of violating the housing law on the 6th of last month. Mr. A won the subscription in 2023. I won by applying for a special supply for newlyweds, but later, during the document submission process, I learned that the marriage was registered after the date of the tenant recruitment announcement. Based on the date of the recruitment announcement, Mr. A was not a newlywed couple, so according to principle, the winning subscription should have been canceled, but the contract went ahead. This was because the winning type had changed from newlyweds to ‘single-parent family.’ In response to this, the Ministry of Land, Infrastructure and Transport requested an investigation, believing that Mr. A had conspired with the business owner to arbitrarily change the subscription type. However, Mr. A completely denied the charges. At the time, an official from the construction company responded that “since she was pregnant at the time of the recruitment announcement, it could be considered a common-law marriage,” and explained that she submitted additional necessary materials. Afterwards, when I visited the sales office again, I was told by the person in charge, “I won as the remaining generation of a single-parent family,” and I just believed and followed that. The police determined that Mr. A was not guilty. It is said that the person who first informed about the change in subscription type was an employee of the sales office. The police explained, “The employees are experts who have received training related to subscription,” and “It would have been difficult for the suspect to perceive this type change notice as an ‘unfair method.’” He also added, “The suspect did not first request a change in the subscription type, but followed the guidance of the sales agency employee, so it is difficult to say that it was intentional.” Attorney Jang Eun-min of the Daeryun Law Firm, who is Ms. A’s legal representative, said, “A violation of the housing law is only valid if it constitutes an ‘act of receiving housing by false or other fraudulent means.’” He added, “Mr. “We were able to achieve good results by emphasizing that there was no intention,” he said.

Court said, “Important promotional content, such as business purpose, is consistent with facts... It is not enough to lead to a mistake.” The court ruled that even if promotional materials were inflated during the commercial sale process, it does not constitute an act of deception. This is because even if there are somewhat exaggerated expressions, it cannot be concluded that it is a false or exaggerated advertisement. On July 24, the 2nd Civil Affairs Division of the Ansan Branch of the Suwon District Court dismissed the plaintiff's claim in a lawsuit filed against the developer by Mr. At the time of the sale, the developer reportedly promoted through catalogs, etc., that the mall was a public-private joint venture and that business safety and economic feasibility were guaranteed. However, after the completion of the mall, Mr. A and others learned that the mall they received was not included in the government project. Accordingly, they filed a lawsuit, claiming that they had signed a contract after being deceived by the developer's false and exaggerated advertisements. It was an argument that not only should the contract be canceled due to a mistake, but the entire sales price should be refunded. The developer countered, saying, “There is no fact that there was any claim or advertisement that there was budget support for any of the buildings,” and “Therefore, the related advertisement only conforms to the facts and cannot be viewed as a false and exaggerated advertisement.” The court also ruled that it could not be said that there was an act of deception at the time of sales promotion. The court ruled, “As a result of a comprehensive review of all promotional materials, including catalogs, it is difficult to say that each building in this case was advertised with the intention of guaranteeing stability as a public-private joint venture or a national project. Therefore, we cannot conclude that the developer deceived the plaintiffs through promotional materials.” Lawyer Ha-yeon Lim of Daeryun Law Firm, the legal representative of the developer, said, “Most of the publicity that the purchasers claim to be deceptive was not conducted on their own. He explained, “It was just a prediction based on an analysis of the building by an unrelated real estate official,” adding, “Even in the official promotional material, there was only a law stating that if financial support from the government was deemed necessary, a portion of the funds could be subsidized or technical support could be provided.” Attorney Lim said, “Above all, the developer was actually selected as the final business operator in the government project contest and was scheduled to receive support for the project cost, so even if the scope and conditions changed somewhat, this was not false. Therefore, the developer had no obligation to return the sale price. “We are not liable for damages,” he added.

According to the legal community on the 2nd, the Chuncheon District Prosecutors’ Office decided not to indict Mr. A, a man in his 50s, who was accused of attempted extortion. Mr. A was assaulted while stopping Mr. B, a man in his 60s, who was drunk and making a commotion at a restaurant in Chuncheon in September last year. Mr. B went to the workplace of Mr. A, a public servant, saying he would apologize, and submitted a complaint to the investigative agency, claiming that Mr. A pressured him to file a claim for damages and demanded money. Mr. A denied all charges. He claimed, “Even when Mr. B came to apologize, he did not show sincerity by saying, ‘I don’t remember because I was drunk,’ so I only said that I would follow the proper legal process,” and “I had no intention of demanding money or threatening him.” The prosecution ruled that there was no charge, finding that Mr. B’s statements were inconsistent and that it was difficult to clearly prove that Mr. A had asked for money. In addition, even if Mr. A tried to receive a certain level of financial compensation, considering that he suffered criminal damage such as assault and swearing from Mr. B, it could not be considered an illegal act that exceeded social norms. Mr. A's legal representative, Min-young Han, a lawyer at Daeryun Law Firm, said, "If notice of harm is used as a legitimate means of realizing rights in a crime of blackmail, whether or not it is allowed should be judged by comprehensively considering the purpose and means. The reason that Mr. A brought up the lawsuit was not through threats, but through due legal procedures. “We faithfully explained that we were making it known that rights can be realized,” he said.

Due to legal uncertainty, the industry is casting a skeptical eye over the deal to acquire UTC Investment (hereinafter referred to as UTC Investment) by Forest Partners, a domestic private equity fund (PEF) management company. This is because a candidate for the next head of a large company sold his personally owned venture capital (VC) company on credit without even receiving a down payment. Handing over a company without receiving a single penny is a rare case in the industry. In addition, in the case of Forest Partners, the acquiring company, the controversy is spreading as the legal risks related to the 2023 wave incident have not yet been resolved and the company's representative is involved in a lawsuit. Im Sang-min, Daesang Group's second daughter, sales structure without down payment According to the investment banking (IB) industry on the 1st, Forest Partners received the entire UTC Invest stock transfer (1 million shares) from Daesang Im Sang-min, vice president (001680), on the 1st of last month. Forest Partners plans to pay the acquisition price in three installments over the next three years. The company did not disclose the size and schedule of the acquisition. Considering that UTC Invest's net assets as of the end of March were 30.8 billion won, the industry estimates that the acquisition price of UTC Invest is in the range of 35 to 40 billion won when the typical domestic venture capital management premium (15 to 30%) is reflected. According to the Financial Supervisory Service's electronic disclosure system, Forest Partners' current assets on a consolidated basis at the end of last year were approximately 4.5 billion won. Cash equivalents are 800 million won, which is only 1/50th of the estimated transaction amount. Considering this, there is an analysis that Forest Partners will take over the management rights of UTC Investment through a fund or a separately established special purpose corporation (SPC). What the industry is paying attention to is not only the financial power of the acquirer, but also the unusualness of the transaction method. In general, in VC mergers and acquisitions (M&A), stocks are transferred with down payment and balance paid sequentially after the transaction is calculated. However, in this case, there is an installment payment structure without even a down payment, so it is evaluated that “assets worth tens of billions of won were effectively handed over on credit.” An official in the venture investment industry said:“It appears that it will be difficult for Forest Partners to pay for the acquisition of UTC Invest with its own funds,” he said. “It appears that a paid-in capital increase will be inevitable in the future, so there is a need to take a good look at the payment entity.” Ji Min-hee, attorney at Daeryun Law Firm,He said, "If this transaction is for the interests of a specific person or profit realization, it may lead to problems such as illegal trading under the Capital Markets Act, breach of trust in business, and violation of the Aggravated Punishment Act for Specific Economic Crimes." Regarding the payment, Forest Partners said, "We plan to liquidate major funds between 2025 and 2027 to recover investment funds and receive performance fees, and secure additional funds through the recovery of two convertible bonds that are maturing, sale of non-business assets, and convertible bonds assigned to shareholders." From legal risks to rumors of external intervention... Growing Suspicion Another issue surrounding this transaction is the legal risk of the acquirer. When a policy agency selects a GP (consignment management company) for an investment project, management stability is an important evaluation indicator, but Forest Partners is finding it difficult to fully meet this requirement. Forest Partners concentratedly sold 41.9 billion won worth of Fado shares in the week before the stock price decline due to Fado's 'earnings shock' in November 2023. Accordingly, the Financial Supervisory Service's Capital Market Special Judicial Police and the Southern District Prosecutors' Office detected the circumstances of illegal transactions by internal executives and employees at Fado and began an investigation. The investigation is still ongoing. Here, owner risk also emerged. Forest Partners CEO Han Seung, who took office as UTC Invest's representative in August, is embroiled in a lawsuit related to forced harassment of employees. Han Seung, CEO of Forest PartnersHe said, "There are no plans at all to raise funds from the target to pay for the acquisition," and added, "It is true that UTC Investment was not aware of the possibility of returning GP from the policy institution investment project due to a change in major shareholders during the acquisition process." He then claimed, “The lawsuit against me, including forced harassment, was brought about by an employee who left the company two years ago out of spite,” and added, “There is a high possibility that he will be found not guilty.” Some say that the background to this transaction is Vice President Lim's spouse, Kook Yoo-jin, head of Blackstone Korea. In the industry, suspicions are raised that “CEO Kook is actually trying to expand his control through Forest Partners, with which he is close.” In fact, it is known that CEO Kook had been interfering with the management of UTC Investment even before the sale, and had been in dispute with internal executives. In particular, experts are pointing out that this transaction has the potential to be used as an expedient gift structure beyond a simple sale. After transferring shares on credit without a down payment, actual control may remain with the owner's family depending on who invests funds during the future paid-in capital increase. Tax experts explained, "If shares are transferred between specially related persons at a price lower than the market price or in an abnormal manner, the National Tax Service may determine that the stock is subject to gift tax," adding, "We cannot rule out the possibility that this case will also be subject to investigation." Forest Partners official said:He said, "It is true that the relationship between CEO Yoo-jin Kook and Forest Partners is close," and "the close relationship with CEO Kook had an influence on Forest Partners' acquisition of UTC Invest at a relatively low price." Meanwhile, CEO Kook owns ‘Astra Holdings’, a private real estate corporation that has no major contact with his main business, PE. The business purposes of Astra Holdings include ▲real estate development, implementation, and consulting ▲real estate leasing and subleasing ▲management consulting and consulting ▲financial investment and investment advisory.

Gyeonggi Hwaseong West Police Station decided not to forward Mr. A, a man who was booked on charges of embezzlement and breach of trust on July 31. Mr. A embezzled about 20 million won in payment received from a business partner while working at company B, a ship logistics company last year, and ignored the company's instructions not to issue documents, giving the company about 100 million won. Company B was accused of causing damage worth about 20 million won. Company B claimed that the customer suffered damage due to Mr. A's actions, and that the company compensated for the loss. Mr. A denied the charges, saying that the transaction amount was normally delivered through an in-house employee. However, he countered that it was not delivered due to an employee's mistake, or a problem occurred in the ledger while the company was handling other unpaid amounts, making proper confirmation impossible. The issuance of documents was also made after consultation with the customer. It was emphasized that the storage fee was incurred due to long-term retention issues due to local circumstances. The police determined that Mr. A was not guilty. The police said, "Considering that the company mainly manages funds in cash and deposits them in bulk, there is no way to prove which part of the money remitted from the sales department was partially deposited by the suspect. Since the company managed funds without clearly distinguishing the fares for individual payments, the suspect was unable to determine the whereabouts of the freight." “It should not be inferred that embezzlement occurred because of the inability to explain or submit data,” he said. He added, “When looking at the conversation between the customer in charge and the suspect, it is confirmed that there were logistics that incurred storage fees.” He added, “There are no circumstances to believe that the suspect committed a crime to make a profit or generate profits for a third party based on the data submitted by the complainant.” Ji Min-hee, a lawyer at Daeryun Law Firm, who represented Mr. A, said, “Company B is “We are having a business meeting to manage the receivables, and if the receivables had arisen in this situation, they would have already been managed,” he explained, adding, “As a rule of thumb, it is absolutely impossible for Mr. A to embezzle the transaction proceeds in this situation.” #Accident #Business embezzlement #Breach of trust #Reporter Daeryun Gouri[View full article] A man in his 30s who was suspected of embezzling 20 million won in transaction money was acquitted (link) 2026-03-29T12:36:52.132Z https://www.daeryunlaw.com/en/broadcast/5591 Market changes such as family business succession and creator taxation 'reactive response' → 'pre-design' paradigm shift As the legal market in the tax field is rapidly changing, major domestic law firms are actively working to strengthen their tax groups. This movement is due to an increase in the demand for tax-related laws, including an increase in the number of tax trials. According to the Tax Tribunal on the 1st, the number of tax trials processed since 2018 has exceeded 10,000 for seven consecutive years. The number of companies receiving family business inheritance deductions also more than doubled from 88 in 2019 to 188 in 2023. As the succession of family businesses and assets increases and the taxation system for new businesses such as the creator economy and platform business becomes more complex, the demand for professional legal responses such as tax appeals and correction claims has increased. The top 10 large law firms are focusing on strengthening their capabilities by recruiting experts and reorganizing their organizations to meet the needs of the evolving market and clients. On the 20th, Shin & Kim Law Firm signed a contract with Seoul National University Law School professor Lee Chang-hee and foreign lawyer Jang Maria. Kim Tae-hoon, a customs expert, was newly recruited. Attorney Jang is an expert qualified to be both a certified public accountant and a New York State attorney. Yulchon Law Firm also appointed lawyers Jeon Young-jun and Kim Geun-jae as co-heads of the tax group in February and began preparing responses to rapid market changes such as global customs conflicts and corporate tax investigations. Last month, Daeryun Law Firm carried out an organizational reorganization that separated the tax administration group into a tax group and an administrative group. The plan is to provide precise customized legal solutions by maximizing expertise in each field. Attorney Kwak Nae-won, who served as a judge at the Seoul Administrative Court, will lead the administrative group, and attorney Kang Seong-kwon, who worked at the Seoul Regional Tax Office and has a deep understanding of overall national tax administration, will lead the tax group. Attorney Kang said, "As the paradigm of the tax legal market has changed from 'reactive response' to 'pre-planning', the needs of customers have diversified," adding, "In the past, people only sought out lawyers after receiving unfair taxation notices, but recently, there are cases where they are looking for the optimal structure without risk. He explained, “Tax cases require a comprehensive understanding of accounting and management perspectives, so comprehensive assistance is needed, including lawyers, accountants, and tax experts.” He also emphasized, “We will be a reliable assistant throughout the entire process from the tax investigation stage to tax litigation to prevent clients from receiving unfair tax treatment.”[View full article] The era of 10,000 tax trials...

According to the legal community on the 28th, the Seoul Eastern District Prosecutors' Office decided not to indict Mr. A, who was sent on charges of violating the copyright law on the 7th of last month. Mr. A was accused of infringing copyright by using Company B's modeling program without permission for five years since 2018 and posting the results on a blog. Company B sued Mr. A, saying that he created a blueprint using the company's program without purchasing genuine software and then used it for business-related advertising. Mr. A denied the charges, saying that he only works in steel structure production and does not even know how to use the design program. When a request for steel structure production comes in, it is a common practice in the industry to hire a technician using Company B's program to provide design services, and he said he also worked on steel structure manufacturing in this way. Mr. A also countered that he ran the blog to receive more orders and that he only posted other people's design results downloaded from the Internet or obtained during the work process. The prosecution determined that Mr. A may have written a blog post based on data obtained through another designer. As a result of the investigation, requesting a design service as claimed by Mr. A is a common industry practice, and there was also a case where Mr. A actually requested a design. Attorney Cho Min-woo of Daeryun Law Firm, who represented Mr. A, said, "Using software for work while knowing that it is an unauthorized copy of the software is a copyright infringement. However, Mr. A was only in charge of production work, not design, and was able to receive a decision of not guilty by emphasizing that he had never used Company B's program and did not know how to use it."

According to the legal community on the 28th, the Cheongju District Prosecutors' Office decided not to indict A, a woman in her 60s who was transferred on charges of manslaughter by abandonment of her husband on the 8th of last month. Last year, Ms. A was accused of moving her father, B, who was hospitalized, to another hospital due to the burden of nursing fees, causing his death. The attending physician, concerned that he would not receive proper treatment, tried to stop Mr. A from going to the hospital, but Mr. A did not comply and Mr. B eventually died. Mr. A denied the charges. Mr. B, who was suffering from a chronic illness, no longer wanted to receive treatment at the existing hospital, and personally signed the relevant documents, expressing his intention to refuse life-sustaining treatment. They also refuted that they had taken all necessary measures for Mr. B by finding a place that could provide the same treatment as the existing hospital and transferring him there. The prosecution ruled that Mr. A was not guilty. The prosecution said, "The signature on the documents related to life-sustaining treatment appears to have been written in the victim's handwriting, and there is no indication that pressure was applied by the suspect." He added, "It is also difficult to conclude that the act of stopping treatment was against the victim's will, as it is written in the opinion that 'the patient and guardian do not want surgery.'" Attorney Lee In-jun of Daeryun Law Firm, who represented Mr. He explained, “There must be a sense that the suspect is neglecting his duty of support,” and “Mr. A did his best to treat Mr. B even at the hospital where he was transferred, so the charge of abandonment itself could not be established.” Reporter Kwon Byeong-seok (bsk730@fnnews.com)[View full article] A man in his 60s who forcibly moved his father to the hospital and prevented him from receiving treatment...

It was a habit of severe drunken violence.” Police said, “It’s all false.” Police said, “Some of the evidence photos were confirmed as ‘marks of surgical procedures’… The circumstances are unclear.” A case was revealed in which a man who was booked for assaulting his girlfriend was cleared of the charges after a police investigation. On the 29th of last month, Dongjak Police Station decided not to transfer a man in his 30s, who was booked on charges of assault. He was accused of strangling Mr. B and placing him on the floor so that he could not move. Mr. B claimed that Mr. A's actions caused injuries to various parts of his body. He also submitted a complaint to the police station, saying that he often used violence when drunk. On the other hand, Mr. A refuted that there was no assault at all. At the time, Mr. B, who was drunk, caused a disturbance on the street, and injuries occurred in the process of preventing it. At the same time, he claimed that he explained the situation to the police officer who was dispatched after the incident and returned home with Mr. B. In addition, he refuted that the drunken violence was a false claim made by Mr. B based on false evidence. The police determined that Mr. A was not guilty. The police said, “Looking at the photos of the wounds and bruises submitted by the victim, it is presumed that there was a physical conflict with the suspect.” However, the police officer who responded to the report at the time stated that he could not confirm the wounds on the victim’s body and did not hear the victim talk about the assault. “Considering all of these circumstances, it is difficult to clearly determine whether the wounds on the victim’s body were caused by the suspect’s actions or occurred before the incident,” he said. “Among the photos submitted as evidence of the assault,” the police said. It was confirmed through the victim's SNS account that some of the wounds were caused by treatment or cosmetic procedures due to health problems," he added. Attorney Seung-jin Yoo of Daeryun Law Firm, who represented suspect A, said, "When Mr. A broke up with him, Mr. B was sued for posting false information on his social media, and later created false evidence and counter-sued Mr. A." He added, "The police also judged that Mr. It appears that a judgment has been made,” he explained.

According to the legal community on the 26th, the Suwon District Court on the 10th of last month indicted a man in his 50s on charges of violating the Special Act on Regulation and Punishment of Speculative Activities, etc. The man, Mr. A, was found not guilty. Mr. A was accused of holding a speculative fishing competition at the fishing spot he ran for two years starting in 2021. According to Article 30 of the Special Act on Regulation and Punishment of Speculative Activities, anyone who engages in gambling activities without permission from the authorities may be punished by imprisonment for up to 3 years or by a fine of up to 20 million won. In the competition, the ranking was determined by the total weight of the fish caught by the guests, and prizes such as free fishing tickets were awarded according to the ranking. The prosecution judged that such a contest constituted a ‘giveaway business’ under the Special Act on Regulation and Punishment of Speculative Activities. A sweepstakes business refers to a business practice that provides participants with a certificate with a rank written on it and awards prize money according to the rank written on the certificate. The prosecution believed that the weight of the fish served as a certificate. Mr. A denied the charges. The weight of the fish is only a simple evaluation standard and has no legal properties as a 'certificate'. In addition, he emphasized that the contest was conducted independently among regular customers, and that the contestant did not receive any money other than the entrance fee to the fishing spot, so there was no profit purpose. The court found Mr. A not guilty. The court said, "The act of speculative activity as defined in the Speculative Activities Control Act is an act of gathering property or property profits from several people and determining the gain or loss in a coincidental way to cause property profit or loss." “Interpreting it as a certificate is an extended interpretation that is unfavorable to the defendant,” he said. He added, “As long as the weight of the fish caught by fishing during a relatively long competition time is added up for each guest, the fishing skills, skills, and efforts of the guests can also significantly affect the results.” He added, “It is difficult to view it as a business using a method that may cause a sense of speculative behavior because it is different from the nature of a sweepstakes business in which the winner is won in a simple and immediate way by chance.” Attorney Kim Young-min of Daeryun Law Firm, who represented Mr. A, said. “The weight of the fish is only a criterion for determining whether or not to win an award, so it does not function as proof or evidence that can prove winning,” he explained. “In addition, we were able to receive a not guilty verdict from the court by emphasizing that we did not use a device to artificially manipulate the outcome of the competition on the scale that measures the weight.” Reporter Seohyun Lee (sunshine@kyeonggi.com)[View full article] Held a fishing competition with regulars and was accused of ‘speculative business’… What is the court ruling?

Do I really have to give them back?” It is common to see money and goods being exchanged between lovers. The forms vary widely, from everyday living expenses to expenses arising from cohabitation on the premise of marriage. The problem is when the relationship breaks down and one party demands a return of the money. From the perspective of the party requesting the return, it may be considered 'money to be returned for granted', but the law is not that simple. In order for a claim for the return of the loan to be recognized in a civil lawsuit, the plaintiff who filed it must prove the fact of the loan. It is difficult to objectively recognize the intention to lend based on simple details of the remittance, such as records of remittances to the other party, transaction details, and deposit/withdrawal accounts. In order to recognize that a rental contract has been established, substantive data regarding agreement of intent are required, such as an IOU or equivalent written text, a text message or email specifying a promise to repay, and a recording of a request for return or statement of repayment. However, in the case of romantic relationships, unlike general transaction relationships, there are rare cases where there is a clear contract or IOU on the background of money receipt. Therefore, the court also comprehensively examines the circumstances and relationship between the parties to determine whether the nature of the money belongs to a loan or a gift. In fact, this same issue was the key in the case I handled. While the defendant was dating the plaintiff, he received approximately 58 million won from the plaintiff on several occasions. However, when the relationship ended, the plaintiff filed a lawsuit demanding its return. At the time, the plaintiff claimed that the defendant borrowed money in the name of repaying the loan. However, there was no direct evidence that could prove the establishment of the contract, such as a rental contract or an IOU. First, the author consistently emphasized the basic principle of civil litigation that 'the person who claims must prove' and thoroughly passed the burden of proof to the plaintiff. It was also pointed out that between lovers, money is often provided without any special conditions. At the same time, he persuasively argued that it is reasonable to view this situation as a gift rather than a loan. In particular, he effectively refuted the plaintiff's claim by emphasizing that the plaintiff paid additional money even though the defendant had not repaid the money after providing the money, and that the plaintiff showed off his financial resources and said he wanted to help the defendant. As a result, the court also judged the plaintiff's claim of 'rental' to be insufficiently proven and dismissed the claim, freeing the defendant from a heavy financial burden. Attorney Kim Young-min of Daeryun Law Firm said, "When a dispute over rental money occurs between lovers like this, emotional judgment can only be used. “You must fully understand the relevant legal principles and establish an evidence collection strategy with a cool-headed judgment from the beginning of the case,” he said. “Only by organizing the facts by issue and constructing logical arguments through the credibility of the parties’ statements and organic interpretation of the circumstantial evidence can you reduce unnecessary disputes and defend yourself from legal liability.” Global Epic CP Lee Soo-hwan / lsh@globalepic.co.kr Rent dispute between lovers...

(Shortcut) 2026-05-13T08:12:27.425Z https://www.daeryunlaw.com/en/broadcast/5564 The former representative of the officetel commercial management group, who was sued for 700 million won in damages for arbitrarily removing an art sculpture installed in the building's common space, won the case in the first trial. On the 17th of last month, the Seoul Central District Court dismissed the plaintiff's claim in a lawsuit seeking damages filed by the officetel commercial management group against four people, including former CEO Mr. In 2015, Mr. A and others demolished and discarded the art sculpture installed in front of the main entrance on the first floor of the officetel building. Later, in 2020, the district office ordered the management team to restore the demolished sculpture to its original state. This measure was taken in accordance with the old Culture and Arts Promotion Act, which stipulates that when constructing a building of a certain size or larger, an amount equivalent to a certain percentage of the construction cost must be used to install art decorations such as paintings, sculptures, and crafts. It was in accordance with Article 11, Paragraph 1. The management team that received instructions for restoration claimed that Mr. A, who was in charge of disposal at the time, demolished the sculpture without permission from the district office and caused damage to the officetel by failing to obtain the consent of more than 2/3 of the unit owners required under the Apartment Building Act. On the other hand, Mr. A and others countered that they were not responsible for compensation. According to the management regulations, they are only liable for damages when they cause damage due to intent or gross negligence, and they were responsible for damages at the time. This means that they did not neglect their duties. At the time, the sculpture was removed in response to complaints from residents, and the management director also did not notify them of legal procedures during the process. The court ruled in favor of Mr. A and others. The court said, "It is acknowledged that the defendants proposed a project and demolished it without going through the procedures set forth in the Multi-Purpose Building Act," but added, "There is a strong possibility that this act will be viewed not as a personal gain, but as a measure for the benefit of the residents, such as maintenance of old facilities and improvement of aesthetics." It also said, "The defendants are not legal experts, and unless the professional consignment management company that communicated with the defendants during the demolition pointed out the legal problem, there is no violation of their duty of care." He stated the reason for the sentencing, saying, "It is difficult to say that there was," and stated the reason for the sentencing. Attorney Park Jeong-gyu of Daeryun Law Firm, who represented the defendant, said, "The issue in this case was whether the liability requirement of 'intention or gross negligence' required by the management regulations was met." He added, "The members of the management group were 'ordinary people' who were only representatives of each neighborhood, and did not specifically know the laws related to the sculpture in this case, and it was difficult to easily understand the legal nature of the sculpture or the basis for its installation. “I gave my explanation,” he said.[View full article] 'Government official' sued for 700 million won for demolishing artwork...

According to the legal community on the 25th, the Daejeon District Prosecutors' Office decided not to indict Mr. A, in his 30s, on charges of aiding and abetting violation of the Petroleum and Petroleum Alternative Fuel Business Act on the 17th. In 2021, Mr. A was asked by his former lover, Mr. B, to lend him the business name needed to operate a gas station. At the time, Mr. B persuaded him by emphasizing that he had bad credit, and Mr. A reportedly responded. However, Mr. B later operated a gas station in Mr. A's name and was caught selling fake oil worth 230 million won for about two weeks starting in March of the following year. The police determined that Mr. A helped Mr. B sell fake oil in exchange for a certain amount of compensation, and handed the case over to the prosecution. Mr. A completely denied the charges. It is true that he lent his name, but he was not aware of the sale of fake oil at all. Mr. A claimed, “I first met him while working as a part-time worker at Mr. B’s business, and since we were thinking of getting married, I took the loan of the name lightly.” He added, “In fact, I did not even receive the promised profits from the business, so I asked Mr. B to close the business several times.” The prosecution found that Mr. A was not guilty. The prosecution explained, “It is confirmed that the suspect lent his name in exchange for financial compensation,” and added, “Also, there is a vague perception that the gas station business will be used for illegal purposes such as tax evasion, but when looking at various circumstances, it is difficult to say that the suspect was aware of the sale of fake oil and participated in the crime.” Kim Dong-gu, an attorney at Daeryun Law Firm who represented Mr. “It must be done,” he said. “We were able to receive an acquittal by thoroughly explaining through objective data such as communication records and bank account deposit and withdrawal details that Mr. A was not aware of the fact that fake oil was being sold.”[View full article] I only lent the name...

Below, we will provide an overview of the patent system and the pharmaceutical product approval process and explain how they are linked.1. What is a patent?A patent is an intellectual property rights system that legally protects an inventor so that he or she can exclusively practice an invention for a certain period of time. Korea's patent law stipulates inventions with 'industrial applicability', 'novelty', and 'inventive step' as patent requirements, and provides strong exclusive effects to registered patents to prevent unauthorized use by third parties. According to various studies, drug prices plummet by more than 70-80% after patent expiration. Therefore, in the pharmaceutical industry, patent rights are a key means of recovering enormous development costs. Patents, which cost hundreds of billions of won to develop a new drug, can be said to be a factor directly related to the survival of a company.2. What is the drug approval/patent linkage system? This system is a device that connects patents and drug product approvals to protect the patent rights of original drugs and at the same time promote the legal entry of generics. Korea's approved patent linkage system consists of the following three axes: ① Patent registration: When the original company applies for product approval, related patents can be registered with the Ministry of Food and Drug Safety. These patents are taken into consideration when a generic company applies for product approval. ② Notification system and sales ban: Generic developer is obligated to notify the original company when applying for approval, and if it is judged that there is a risk of infringing on the patent, the original company can apply for a sales ban. ③ Priority sales product approval: The generic company that succeeds in patent evasion for the first time can sell alone for 9 months. This acts as a device to encourage generic development.3. The general flow of patent registration from patent application to registration, duration and extension is as follows. ① Filing: The contents of the invention are submitted to the Korean Intellectual Property Office along with the specification. ② Examination and registration decision: After application, the examination stage is entered. At this time, the patent office examiner determines whether the patent requirements are met and if it is judged to be a valid patent, it is registered. ③ Duration: Lasts for 20 years from the date of application, and in the case of pharmaceutical patents, the 'permission delay period' is Reflecting this, it is possible to extend the duration for up to 5 years. Pharmaceutical patents are usually filed in the early stages of development, before or after preclinical or phase 1 clinical trials. As explained earlier, strong exclusive effect is recognized in registered patents.4. Pharmaceutical product approval: General industrial products undergoing clinical trials from phase 1 to phase 3 can be manufactured and sold freely. However, in the pharmaceutical industry, only drugs that have received ‘item approval’ after passing phase 1 to 3 clinical trials can be sold. In other words, there is a strong hurdle called ‘approval’ in the pharmaceutical market.5. In the pharmaceutical development process where patents and approvals are linked, a patent for the 'target substance' is generally applied first, and then approval is obtained after clinical trials. These two processes are linked in the following way: patents are a means of protection, and licensing is a means of market entry. No matter how good a patent you have, you cannot sell it without permission, and conversely, even if you have permission, if you do not apply for a patent and do not have exclusive rights or the patent has expired, you cannot make a profit. Even when a generic company launches a generic drug after the original company launches a product, the approval and patent are linked. It is common for generic companies to analyze the original company's patents and establish an avoidance strategy (claim invalidity or non-infringement). Afterwards, if avoidance is deemed possible, the generic company will apply for drug product approval, and according to the patent system (license-patent linking system), the generic company must notify the patent holder of the approval application. At this time, if the original company applies for a sales ban, the Ministry of Food and Drug Safety can delay the entry of generics for a certain period of time. Conversely, there is also a system in which generic companies attack the original company. The priority sales product licensing system is an incentive to encourage patent avoidance. If the generic company successfully evades the patent, it will benefit from exclusive sales rights for a certain period of time.6. Conclusion It is no exaggeration to say that the success or failure of new drug development or generic drug development depends on ‘how to devise a patent strategy to recover the cost of new drug development,’ ‘whether a valid patent exists at the time of approval,’ and ‘whether that patent can be avoided.’ Therefore, we conclude by emphasizing that pharmaceutical companies must not only consider the simple approval process but also have a complex response strategy that includes patent strategy. | Contribution | Lee Il-hyeong, attorney at Daeryun Pharmaceutical Bio Healthcare Center[View full article] [Contribution] The intersection of approval and patent with a focus on the pharmaceutical approval and patent linking system 2026-05-12T12:00:26.810Z https://www.daeryunlaw.com/en/broadcast/5556 When a company excluded from a holding company under the Fair Trade Act reports, the Fair Trade Commission reviews it.“There are more regulations than benefits”Mid-sized corporate holding companies are giving up their holding company status under the Fair Trade Act.. past 2Following Iljin Holdings’ abandonment of holding company status in February,, Noroo Holdings also gave up its holding company status.. In particular, it is noteworthy that they are voluntarily giving up their positions.. The industry believes that this is because there are more regulations than the actual benefits of maintaining a holding company.. 20According to the Japanese mid-sized business community and the Financial Supervisory Service's electronic disclosure system,, Noroo Paint, Noroo Auto Coating, etc. 8Noroo Holdings, a holding company that controls 10 subsidiaries, 14We were notified by the Fair Trade Commission that we do not qualify as a holding company under the Monopoly Regulation and Fair Trade Act.. anticipant 2month 19Iljin Holdings was also notified by the Fair Trade Commission that the Fair Trade Act does not apply to holding companies..What is noteworthy is that both companies voluntarily gave up their holding company status.. Noroo Holdings last year 8month 13Day, Iljin Holdings last year 2month 17Reported to the Fair Trade Commission requesting exclusion from the holding company under the Fair Trade Act.. As the Fair Trade Commission determined that the company's report met the requirements, the two companies were excluded from holding companies under the Fair Trade Act..In fact, the two companies already did not meet the holding company requirements.. The Fair Trade Commission passed 2017Based on the total assets of the holding company 1000From 100 million won 5000This is because it was raised to billions of won.. Noroo Holdings 2024The total assets on a separate basis at the end of the year are 3897It's billions of won. During the same period, the total assets of Iljin Holdings were also 2858It's billions of won. 5000Noroo Holdings and Iljin Holdings, valued at less than 100 million won, were scheduled to automatically lose their holding company status..However, the Fair Trade Commission has postponed the application of the standards to companies that do not meet the holding company standards, allowing companies to maintain their holding company status if they wish., You can now give up your holding company status if you don't want to.. The Fair Trade Commission has set the standards 2027year 6postponed until March.The reason why mid-sized companies are giving up their holding company status is because there are many regulations.. According to the Fair Trade Act, a holding company is 2It is prohibited to hold debt exceeding two times the amount of debt.. The standards for financial safety are higher than those of general corporations..There is also an obligation to maintain shareholding ratios in subsidiaries and subsidiaries.. In the case of a listed company, the holding company has the total number of issued shares for its subsidiaries. 20% more, In case of unlisted companies 40% It is mandatory to hold more than.

You cannot even own stocks of financial companies..The obligation to disclose governance structure is also a burden for holding companies.. Holding company shareholder status, Status of subsidiaries and subsidiaries, Stock ownership status, Financial status, etc. must be disclosed in detail., If excluded from a holding company, it is free from this detailed disclosure obligation and only has to disclose the same level as a general company..Woohyung Jeong, senior attorney at Daeryun Law Firm, said: “The Fair Trade Act views holding companies as targets of regulation in order to establish a fair economic order.”While “Debt ratio is restricted when excluded from holding companies under the Fair Trade Act., Obligation to maintain subsidiary shareholding ratio, This can be resolved through restrictions on stock ownership of affiliates, etc., The obligation to report or disclose is reduced, allowing for more free corporate activities.”explained. On the other hand, the actual benefits gained from maintaining the holding company status are small.. Previously, ‘Special exception for non-inclusion of income and dividends from holding companies in gross income’Through this, holding companies had the advantage of being recognized as less subject to tax on dividends than general corporations.. In the case of a general corporation, regarding the invested corporation 100%Dividends must have shares of 100%If excluded from taxation, In case of a holding company 30% Dividend even if it is more than 90%It was possible to exclude taxation for.for example Ahistorian 50%Dividends for companies with a shareholding ratio of 100If you are receiving billions of won, General corporations 50Hundreds of millions of won, The holding company 90Hundreds of millions of won were excluded from taxation..However, with the revision of the Corporate Tax Act, the standards for non-inclusion of profits for holding companies and general corporations were integrated.. Re-taxing dividends on which corporate tax has already been paid ‘double taxation’As a social consensus was formed that, 2022year 12month 31After this date, whether it is a holding company or a general corporation, the shareholding ratio 50% If it is above this, the entire dividend can be excluded from taxation..Currently, the purpose is to provide additional time for the holding company to acquire stocks of listed subsidiaries. ‘Special exception to the holding company's non-inclusion rate of income and dividends in profits’go 2026year 12month 31Although it was postponed until, 2027From 2018, profits for the holding company are expected to decline..Hanmin Kim Tax Accountant Hanmin Tax Accountant “In the past, a holding company with a small shareholding ratio could be subject to a high rate of non-inclusion of dividends in profits., 2023Since the standards for holding companies and non-holding companies have been integrated, actual profits have decreased compared to general corporations.”said. As Noroo Holdings was excluded from the holding company 2026The corporate tax burden on dividends is expected to increase by 2020.. However, most of the shares in subsidiaries are 50% Because it is more than, 2027The burden is expected to decrease from 2018 due to the abolition of special corporate tax provisions..

This seminar was prepared to preemptively prepare for the labor-management relations and corporate governance environment that will change depending on changes in laws. On the 3rd of last month, a bill to amend the Commercial Act, which aims to expand directors' duty of loyalty and improve corporate governance, was passed by the National Assembly. This amendment also includes strengthening the independent director system, introducing an electronic general meeting of shareholders, and strengthening the 3% rule, so companies are busy responding to this. In addition, Articles 2 and 3 of the Labor Union Act, the so-called ‘Yellow Envelope Act’, which contains contents such as limiting companies’ claims for compensation and expanding collective bargaining matters, are also scheduled to be processed at the extraordinary plenary session of the National Assembly this month. It is expected to bring about significant changes in labor-management relations along with the corporate management environment, so it is necessary to prepare response strategies after the law is enforced. At the seminar, attorneys Ho Gyu-chan (36th class of the Judicial Research and Training Institute) and Bang In-tae (41st class of the Judicial Research and Training Institute) from Daeryun Corporate Legal Group will appear as presenters. Attorney Bang, a labor lawyer registered with the Korean Bar Association and well-versed in legal advice in the human resources and labor areas of companies, will give a presentation on the main contents and prospects of the Yellow Envelope Act. Attorney Ho explains the key issues and implications of the amendment to the Commercial Act. While working in the Commercial Law Department of the Ministry of Justice, Attorney Ho participated in the revision of the corporate section of the Commercial Act, and later served as an advisor on corporate governance and financial law to law firms and financial institutions. After the presentation, the two lawyers plan to conduct a Q&A and discuss practical responses to major issues. The seminar will be held simultaneously online and offline, and anyone can apply for free. Applications for participation can be made on the Daeryun official website. Kim Kuk-il, CEO of Daeryun Management, said, "The Yellow Envelope Act and the amendment to the Commercial Act are important issues that can simultaneously bring new risks and opportunities to companies' labor-management relations strategies, governance structures, and overall operating methods. I hope that this seminar will help companies review their response strategies and establish practical directions." Meanwhile, Daeryun focuses on corporate legal groups and provides customized legal services for companies such as labor re-transfer, collective bargaining, and board consulting.

On the 14th of last month, Yuseong Police Station in Daejeon decided not to forward a man in his 40s, Mr. A, who is suspected of defamation under the Information and Communications Network Act. This year, Mr. A was accused of posting a video containing false facts related to the products of electronics company B on his YouTube channel. Company B claimed that Mr. A had exaggerated the defect rate of its products by inflating the actual rate. It was claimed that the cause of the defect was determined to be a manufacturing defect, unlike in reality. Mr. A denied the charge, saying that he had compared the defect rate with similar product lines through an actual investigation. In addition, the company name was not mentioned in the video, and the product was also mosaiced, so it was emphasized that the manufacturer of the product could not be identified as Company B. The police determined that Mr. A was not guilty. The police said, "The content contained in the video is based on the suspect's own investigation as well as the results of experiments by private companies and researchers. He said, "The suspect requested Company A to make improvements in this regard, but the company ignored them. In the long term, it appears that Company A also needs to inspect or correct the cause of the defect rate." He also explained the reason for the decision to not forward the video, saying, "The suspect posted the video because it was created based on evidence for the purpose of public interest, not to slander Company A, so there was a perception that it was false." Attorney Cho Sang-soo of Daeryun Law Firm, who represented Mr. A, said. “Article 310 of the Criminal Act stipulates that illegality arises if the facts stated are true and solely for the public interest,” he said. “We emphasized that consumer complaints have been filed with Mr. A, who is recognized in the home appliance industry and has many subscribers, and that we have produced a video based on these to prevent damage.” Go Woori (wego@ikbc.co.kr)[View full article] Posted a false review?...

The 4th Criminal Division of the Daegu District Court dismissed the prosecution's appeal and upheld the original trial ruling that acquitted Mr. A, a man in his 40s who was indicted on defamation charges, on the 9th of last month. In 2022, Mr. A said, “Mr. B, one of the franchise owners, intentionally failed to repay his debt and was even punished criminally.” He was accused of spreading the information to other franchise owners. Mr. B, who heard this from other store owners, filed a complaint against Mr. A, and the investigation began. Mr. A denied the charges. Mr. B was violating the franchise agreement by purchasing materials through external companies other than those designated by the head office, and claimed that the problem arose by introducing these external companies to other store owners. He emphasized that he only met with the franchise owners to discuss the matter and did not make any defamatory remarks. Based on the statements of the franchise owners, the prosecution determined that Mr. A was guilty and requested a summary order of a fine of 2 million won. Afterwards, a court order was issued, but Mr. A, who refused to comply, requested a formal trial. The first trial court declared him not guilty. The court said, "The part where the victim heard the defendant's remarks from the franchise owners is nothing more than a report containing a repeat statement, so it has no evidence," and added, "The only evidence that could be consistent with the indictment is the store owners' statements that they heard the remarks directly from the defendant." However, "the statement of the store owners is different from what is stated in the indictment, so it is not confirmed that the defendant made the remarks." He added, "The defendant and the store owners are going through a legal dispute, so their “It is difficult to believe the statement as it is,” he added. The prosecution, which objected to this, filed an appeal on the grounds of misconception of facts. However, the appellate court also upheld the not guilty verdict, saying that there were no reasonable circumstances to consider the original trial's judgment unfair. Attorney Jeon Hyeong-oh of the Daeryun Law Firm, who represented Mr. A, explained, "During the investigation, the store owners were unable to properly answer the contents of their testimony or their statements conflicted with each other. We emphasized that their statements were intended to punish Mr. A for his ill-feeling, and the court also accepted this and appears to have failed to recognize its credibility."

However, there are not many cases where the difference between the two terms is clearly known. Reckless driving is a crime under the Road Traffic Act and is an act that poses a threat to an unspecified number of people. It occurs when two or more of the nine acts, such as violating a traffic signal or crossing the center line, are committed consecutively or one act is repeated, and can be punished by imprisonment for up to one year or a fine of up to 5 million won. On the other hand, retaliatory driving is a special crime under the criminal law and is an act of intimidation targeting a specific person. A single act is enough, and as a car is recognized as a 'dangerous object', special injuries (imprisonment for 1 to 10 years), special threats (imprisonment for 7 years or less or a fine not exceeding 10 million won), and special assaults (imprisonment for up to 5 years or a fine not exceeding 10 million won) are applied. However, for a retaliatory driving charge to be established, objective circumstances such as intentionality, persistence, repetition, and creating fear in the victim are required. Everything must be proven. Even if you honked your horn for a long time simply because you were in a bad mood, or changed lanes quickly without a turn signal, charges may not be established if there was no clear intent to threaten. A recent case I handled clearly shows the importance of concrete evidence. Client A, who worked as a bus driver, was booked on charges of special threats last year. Mr. A, who was driving in the bus-only lane at the time, tried to overtake the bus in front through the second lane on the right as it was traveling at a slow speed. However, the vehicle running in the next lane did not easily give space. Accordingly, Mr. A got behind the vehicle in question and flashed his high beam lights, and even crossed over into the second lane even after returning to the bus lane. After meeting the client, I carefully reviewed the circumstances of the incident. In particular, we examined whether Mr. A's actions met the requirements for retaliatory driving. As a result, it was determined that it was difficult to prove the ‘intention’ of retaliation in Mr. A’s actions. Mr. A claimed that at the time, he turned on his high beam as a signal to adjust his driving speed to the damaged vehicle. In addition, regarding the lane crossing, it was emphasized that it was a mistake that occurred while steering the steering wheel to avoid colliding with the median, and that it was not intentional. The prosecution also saw circumstances showing that Mr. A crossed the lane toward the victim and threatened the victim even though he entered the bus lane after flashing his high beam lights, but decided not to prosecute, saying that considering the extent of crossing the lane, it is difficult to consider it as intentional retaliation. As can be seen from this incident, there is an exact legal standard for retaliatory driving, which is a common behavior committed by drivers on the road. It is clearly different from conflict. Therefore, even if you are accused, you can avoid unfair punishment through systematic response. Above all, we must keep in mind that collecting early evidence and organizing facts are key factors that determine the outcome of a case. When you are subject to retaliatory driving on the road, it is important to keep a safe distance and not fight back. After securing evidence with a black box or mobile phone, report it to 112 or the Safety Report Center, and record the vehicle number, time, location, and specific threatening actions in detail. Attorney Lee Ha-neul of the Daeryun Law Firm said, “Conversely, if you have been identified as the perpetrator of retaliatory driving, it is more important to accurately determine the facts than hasty admission.” He added, “Retaliatory driving is a special crime that carries the possibility of imprisonment even for first-time offenders, so help from experts must be obtained from the initial investigation stage. Black box video, witness statements, and the situation at the time. He said, “It is more important than anything to find areas to dispute the charges by comprehensively reviewing the charges, and to lower the level of punishment through a sincere agreement with the victim. Also, it is more important to prevent such situations by making defensive driving a habit.” Global Epic CP Lee Soo-hwan / lsh@globalepic.co.kr Punishment for retaliatory driving is different from reckless driving...

Court said, “The number of offenses is not good... the victim suffers greatly.” A man in his 40s was sentenced to prison for threatening and stalking his ex-lover who broke up with him, saying, “I will not leave you alone.” According to the legal community on the 19th, the 2nd Criminal Division of the Ansan Branch of the Suwon District Court on the 17th of last month ruled on the ‘Act on the Punishment of Stalking Crimes, etc.’ Mr. A, in his 40s, who was accused of violating the law, was sentenced to one year in prison. In addition, he was also ordered to complete a 40-hour sexual violence and stalking treatment program. When Mr. A received notice of a breakup from Mr. B, his former lover, last year, Mr. A was put on trial on charges of stalking Mr. B by repeatedly texting and calling him about 130 times. He was also accused of demanding money by threatening to spread a photo of Mr. B's body parts. Mr. B requested severe punishment, saying that Mr. A's threats caused him long-term fear and anxiety and that he had difficulty in interpersonal relationships. Accordingly, the court sentenced Mr. A to one year in prison. The court said, "Considering the relationship between the two and the number of times the crime was committed, the nature of the defendant's crime was not good, and the victim suffered considerable mental pain," and "Although the defendant did it for the victim, “There was a criminal deposit (a system in which the perpetrator entrusts money to the court for the victim’s recovery), but considering the fact that the victim did not forgive, it is difficult to view this as equivalent to an agreement,” the ruling said. “Mr. A’s actions went beyond the emotional response of the breakup process and were a serious crime that seriously violated Mr. B’s right to self-determination,” he said. “During the trial, he emphasized that this was equivalent to or more than physical violence. “It appears that the court recognized the seriousness of the case and handed down a prison sentence.” Reporter Kim So-hyun (sovivid@kyeonggi.com)[View full article] “Threatened about 130 times in response to breakup notice”… 40-year-old sentenced to prison for stalking ex-lover (link) 2026-05-12T06:09:09.241Z https://www.daeryunlaw.com/en/broadcast/5544 Daeryun Law Firm recently formed a task force (TF) to preemptively respond to changes in corporate governance and the way the board of directors and general shareholders' meetings operate due to revisions to the Commercial Act. The TF focuses on accurately interpreting the purpose of legal revisions and providing customized advice optimized for a company's business structure and management environment. Accordingly, it deals in depth with all legal issues and practical areas related to the Commercial Act Amendment. The TF is comprised of lawyers with extensive practical experience in the fields of corporate advisory, governance of listed companies, mergers and acquisitions (M&A), contracts between shareholders, fair trade, and dispute prevention. The core members include attorneys Shin Jong-soo (31st class of the training center), Son Gye-jun (36th class), Ho Gyu-chan (36th class), Bang In-tae (41st class), and Ji Min-hee (bar exam 10th class). Attorney Ho said, "Daeryun has designed a compliance system that can be applied to actual management sites and supports the board of directors and general shareholders' operating procedures and decision-making process," and added, "Expansion of directors' duty of loyalty, strengthening of the independent director system, which are the core of the revised commercial law. “We analyze the impact that the introduction of an electronic general shareholders’ meeting will have on corporate management and present strategies to turn this into an opportunity,” he said. In this process, we diagnose the company’s risks and areas needing improvement, and provide a customized operation manual that reflects industry characteristics, governance status, shareholder composition, etc. to further differentiate ourselves. The TF is preparing online and offline seminars to understand the major issues and precedent trends of the amendment. We will also provide key information through our YouTube channel and newsletter. In particular, the newsletter is planned to be structured so that it can be used in the field by containing explanations of condolences, as well as actual dispute cases and precautions for practical application. Attorney Ho said, “There is a growing consensus among companies that a proactive design, rather than a reactive response to commercial law revisions is necessary,” and added, “This will be data that takes this trend into consideration.” In the short term, the TF plans to focus on supporting areas with significant changes, such as audit committee election regulations and independent director selection procedures.

It is judged to be a violation of the principle of clarity as the subject of correction is ambiguous. On the 23rd of last month, the 1st Administrative Department of the Gangneung Branch of the Chuncheon District Court ruled in favor of the plaintiff in the lawsuit filed by Mr. A against the local government to cancel the order to correct the violative building. Previously, Mr. A's spouse purchased a neighborhood living facility in Gangneung, Gangwon-do in December 2003 and completed the registration of transfer of ownership. Afterwards, the spouse passed away and Mr. A received the inheritance. In February of last year, the local government ordered the building to be restored to its original state, saying it was acknowledged that the building had been expanded without permission and violated building laws. Accordingly, Mr. A filed an administrative appeal to cancel the correction order, but it was dismissed, and he later filed an administrative lawsuit. During the lawsuit, Mr. A claimed that he had never committed any illegal acts, such as expansion, in relation to the building in question. In particular, he emphasized that although more than 20 years had passed since the purchase of the building, the local government had not once raised an issue during this period. The first trial dismissed Mr. A's claim, finding that the local government's corrective order was justified. The first trial court stated, “Considering the legislative purpose of the Building Act, which aims to contribute to the promotion of public welfare by improving the safety, function, environment, and aesthetics of buildings, it is judged that the public interest sought to be achieved is greater than the private interest infringed by the disposition of this case.” However, the appellate court judgment was different. The appellate court ruled, “The disposition in this case does not specifically state the area and location occupied by the unauthorized extension of the building, the date and type of violation, etc.” and “Therefore, the disposition in this case is illegal because the object or content of the correction order cannot be considered to have been specified clearly enough for Mr. He said, “It did not contain any data such as drawings or photos that could be used to specify whether or not it was done,” and added, “In other words, this is nothing more than an assumption without any objective basis.” At the same time, he added, “There is no data to acknowledge that Mr. A had expanded the building without permission after acquiring ownership of the building in this case, and even considering the acquisition process, it is difficult to say that Mr. A was able to know this information.” Digital Content Team[View full article] Demolition order 20 years after purchasing the building...

On the 25th of last month, the Seoul Eastern District Court sentenced Mr. A, an assistant brokerage indicted on charges of embezzlement and forgery of private documents, to six months in prison. Mr. A was accused of brokering a lease contract with a sale price of 200 million won in 2022 and embezzling 70 million won of deposit paid by tenant B. Mr. A was found to have continued to engage in illegal activities, such as brokering contracts, even though he was an assistant broker. According to the Licensed Real Estate Brokerage Act, an assistant broker is a person employed by a licensed real estate agent and can only perform simple auxiliary duties such as providing on-site guidance to brokerage items or general affairs. Mr. A is said to have forged a contract, delivered forged private documents to Mr. B, etc., and used most of the stolen money as personal investment funds. During the trial, Mr. A It was argued that charges such as forgery of a private document were not established because the contract was shown to the lessor and his signature and seal were obtained. The court ruled that Mr. A was guilty of forgery of a private document because he deceived the lessor into signing and sealing a document against the will of the landlord, so he was sentenced to prison. The court said, "The defendant admits to some crimes, but in light of his statements and attitude in court, does he truly reflect on and regret this incident? He also pointed out, “It’s questionable.” Attorney Park Jeong-ho of Daeryun Law Firm, who is the legal representative of victim B, emphasized, "This case is a serious economic crime in which Mr. A, who was in charge of assisting brokerage, abused his trust to embezzle customers' funds and forged and used private documents such as contracts to conceal this."

Shinyoung Securities maintains that “it is not subject to the Capital Markets Act as it is an unlisted company,” but controversy is growing over whether it violates the Capital Markets Act, with some pointing out that this is an act of financial institution executives and employees taking unfair profits by using internal information. The company in question is Aall Korea, which manufactures metal-organic framework (MOF), a new dehumidifying and antibacterial material. In November 2021, Aall Korea attracted a total of KRW 22 billion in new stock investments from K-Net Unicorn Development Investment Association (KRW 4 billion), Woori Shinyoung Growth Cap No. 1 Private Equity Partnership (KRW 6.5 billion), Shinyoung Securities (KRW 1.5 billion), and NH-Iris ESG New Technology Investment Association (KRW 10 billion). Woori Shinyoung Growth Cap No. 1 is a private equity fund (PEF) established by Woori PE and Shinyoung Securities in 2018, and is currently a financial industry-based investment asset management company with Shinyoung Securities as the representative. In July 2021, the same year, Shinyoung Securities decided to invest 13,428 shares in Aol Korea at 595,800 won per share, worth about 8 billion won. However, during this process, it was confirmed that on June 28, 2021, a Shinyoung Securities executive used internal information to purchase 200 shares of common stock in the name of his family at 350,000 won per share. Then, on July 30, 2021, another employee also purchased 800 shares of common stock at the same price in the name of his spouse. This is about 40% lower than Shinyoung Securities’ official investment price. After the incident occurred, Shinyoung Securities did not file a separate complaint with the Financial Supervisory Service, but only punished the relevant officers and employees with a ‘salary reduction’ in accordance with internal ethical standards. Shinyoung Securities' position is, "We don't know how the executives and employees knew about it and bought the stocks." A Shinyoung Securities official said, "As a result of the investigation from a risk perspective, what Shinyoung Securities acquired was RCPS (Redeemable Convertible Preferred Stock), and what the employee purchased was common stock, which was a normal transaction that matched the market price at the time." He added, "Because it is an unlisted company, it is not subject to the Capital Markets Act." Despite this explanation, the legal community believes that it is difficult to avoid suspicion of violating the Capital Markets Act, as it is judged that executives and employees of the financial institution pursued unfair profits by utilizing internal information. Attorney Ji Min-hee of Daeryun Law Firm said, “For Article 54, Paragraph 1 of the Capital Markets Act to be applied, the following requirements must be met: ‘He must be an executive or employee of a financial investment business, the information must have been known in the course of his duties, the information must have not been disclosed to the outside, and the information must have been used for his/her own/third party’s benefit.’ In this case, since the executive or employee used internal information to purchase the product at a low price in the name of a family member, he or she may be held liable for violating Article 54 of the Capital Markets Act and the obligation to prohibit the use of job-related information.” explained. He continued, “The fact of whether it is RCPS (Redeemable Convertible Preferred Stock) or common stock has nothing to do with the application of the above provisions, and whether it is a reasonable price must be examined. However, even if it is a fair price, it does not affect the fact that internal information was used. Regarding the use of internal information, the decision is made by taking into account various circumstances such as the impact/contribution of the relevant information on the judgment and decision regarding the transaction, the economic situation of the relevant person, the transaction period, and the form or method of the transaction.” In addition, “In the case of Article 174 (prohibition of use of undisclosed important information) of the same Act, the principle is that Article 174 does not apply because it is an unlisted corporation. However, if the unlisted corporation is scheduled to be listed within 6 months or is scheduled to merge with a listed corporation, Article 174 applies,” he said. “Even if it is a corporation to which Article 174 applies, as in the judgment of Article 54 above, common stocks and whether they are at a fair price are important to be undisclosed in and of themselves.” “It does not affect the decision on whether to use the information,” he said.[View full article] [Exclusive] Shinyoung Securities, executives and employees suspected of ‘insider trading’… Purchase of stocks at a low price in the name of a family member (link) 2026-05-12T12:48:52.494Z https://www.daeryunlaw.com/en/broadcast/5535 Recently, terrorist threats about installing explosives in multi-use facilities such as department stores and parks used by an unspecified number of people have been spreading throughout the country like a trend. According to Yongin Eastern Police Station, on the morning of the 13th, a fax was sent to the Daejeon Immigration Office saying, “We will blow up Everland Resort,” and the police launched an emergency search. Previously, a fax was received stating that explosives were installed at a department store in Gwangju Metropolitan City on the 11th and at the Olympic Park gymnastics stadium on the 10th. Terrorist and crime warnings are also prevalent online. On the 5th, an article was posted on an Internet community saying, “Explosives were installed at the main branch of Shinsegae Department Store and will be blown up at 3 p.m.,” causing an evacuation commotion. The author of the article was found to be a middle school student living in Jeju Island. This phenomenon increased rapidly after the stabbing incident at Seohyeon Station in Bundang in 2023, and at that time, the National Investigation Headquarters of the National Police Agency conducted special security activities for two months starting in August and conducted intensive crackdowns. As a result, 571 reports of violent crimes were discovered during the period, 298 people were arrested, and 28 of them were detained. However, due to the limitations of applying charges in such investigations, the suspects were only punished lightly, such as fines. Regarding this, legal experts analyzed that the requirements for establishing a crime varied depending on interpretation, making application difficult. Attorney Kim Dong-jin of Daeryun Law Firm (Limited) said, “In the past, in the past, “Because I was not familiar with the crime without asking, I thought it was difficult to trust the murder notice and that it was unlikely to be realized,” he said. “As the motive for enacting the crime of intimidation did not include a post warning of murder, it was difficult to punish the author of the post for this crime.” He continued, “Various charges such as obstruction of official duties by hierarchy, cyberstalking, preliminary crime of murder, and creating anxiety under the Information and Communications Network Act may be applied, but as seen earlier, crimes such as crime notices are not possible.” “Because it is not a crime that was envisaged and legislated, there is a problem that it does not fully fit these crimes,” he said, adding, “In particular, since it is difficult to easily determine intentionality, the crime of public intimidation is a supplement to this.” In fact, the ‘public intimidation crime’ has been implemented since March of this year to ensure that strong punishment is imposed on crimes that threaten an unspecified number of people. The crime of public intimidation stipulates that if a person threatens to harm the life or body of an unspecified number of people, he or she will be punished by imprisonment for up to 5 years or by a fine of up to 20 million won. In addition, such a crime carries civil liability in addition to criminal punishment. This is because most of the threats and reports are found to be false, leading to a waste of administrative power. Attorney Kim said, “If a person is found guilty through a criminal court, they will be liable for damages caused by illegal acts under Article 750 of the Civil Act,” and “If the perpetrator is a minor, their parents and other supervisors will be responsible for damages under Article 755 of the Civil Act.” However, Attorney Kim is of the position that it is difficult to view civil action as a realistic solution. He analyzed, “If at least hundreds of millions of won in administrative power is wasted due to the deployment of police, it is virtually impossible for one family to shoulder the national cost, so it is difficult to see it as a realistic recovery measure.” Reporter Kwon Byeong-seok (bsk730@fnnews.com)[View full article] What is the legal application for ‘series of bomb threats’?

A public official in his 50s who molested a subordinate at a dinner party was sentenced to prison. On the 12th, the Daejeon District Court Cheonan Branch sentenced a man, Mr. A, who was indicted on charges of forcible harassment to six months in prison. In addition, he was ordered to complete a 40-hour sexual violence treatment program and be restricted from employment at child and youth-related institutions for two years. Mr. A, who was working as a team leader at a government-affiliated organization, was accused of pulling the hand of Mr. B, a subordinate, and placing it on his thigh at a dinner party in 2023, and asking, “Can I kiss him?” At the time, Mr. B was talking about promotion with Mr. A and said, “If there is anything I don’t know, please let me know. Team leader.” He claimed that he made a statement to the effect of “Please help me,” and that Mr. A approached him, whispered, and asked, “Can I give you a kiss?” He also emphasized that even when the two of them were alone after the company dinner, Mr. A asked for physical contact under the pretext of a promotion, saying, "Please show me your faith. I will do my best only if you show me your faith." Mr. A completely denied the charges. At the time, the company dinner was for some employees, including the victim, who was discouraged by missing out on promotions, and he explained that Mr. B, who was sitting next to him, suddenly grabbed his hand and tapped the back of his hand once or twice as encouragement. At the same time, he explained that he did not mention the kiss to Mr. B. The police who initially investigated the case decided not to send the case. The reason was that there was not enough evidence. The police explained the reason for the acquittal by saying, “The victim’s statement was not specific, and it was unnatural based on experience for the suspect to hold the victim’s hand and offer to ‘kiss’ while his colleagues were sitting across from each other, and the colleagues did not see the damage either.” Mr. B, who did not accept this, filed an objection. Immediately after the incident occurred, Ms. B talked to her husband on the phone and told the company in detail about what happened at the company dinner, and immediately reported this to the company the next day. The purpose is that this contains specific details that cannot be stated unless one has directly experienced it. The prosecution, which took over the case, found Ms. B's statement credible and sent Mr. A to trial. The court sentenced Mr. A to six months in prison and placed him under court custody. The court said, “The victim provides detailed statements about the circumstances of the incident, the circumstances of the damage, and the defendant’s actions, and the main parts of the content are consistent.” He also added, “Even if you look at the phone call between the victim and his spouse immediately after the crime, it contains the statement, ‘The defendant asked to kiss.’” The court continued, “Although it appears that the employees across from him were unaware of the defendant’s actions, the hands of the defendant and the victim were under the table, so there is a possibility that the witness’ gaze could be obstructed by the table.” At the same time, “The defendant tried to take advantage of the victim’s desire for promotion, so the crime was bad and there was no serious reflection, and the victim also did not show any serious remorse.” “We are pleading for severe punishment.” He stated the reason for the sentencing. Attorney Daeryun Yoon of the law firm representing Mr. B said, “The Supreme Court believes that the credibility of the statements of sexual crime victims should not be rashly rejected unless the main parts are consistent and there are no irrational or contradictory parts compared to the rules of experience, and there is no motive to make false statements against the defendant.” He explained, “I was able to receive a prison sentence after indictment by emphasizing that there was no reason to make an unfavorable statement against Mr. A in a situation where he was trying to get promoted.” Reporter Kim Jong-cheol (jckim99@sportsseoul.com)[View full article] A boss who harassed a subordinate who wanted a promotion by asking, “Can I kiss him?” Sentenced to 6 months in prison (link) 2026-05-13T12:43:50.753Z https://www.daeryunlaw.com/en/broadcast/5533 Daeryun Corporate Law Group announced on the 14th that it signed a business agreement (MOU) with Bridgecode, a financial advisor specializing in M&A for small and medium-sized venture companies, to strengthen corporate financial services.

According to the '2025 Revised Economic Outlook' announced by the Bank of Korea in June, the growth rate of construction investment this year was predicted to be -6.1%. This is the lowest figure since -13.2% during the 1998 foreign exchange crisis. This is also revealed in the scale of wage arrears. The amount of wage arrears in the construction industry, which had been decreasing until 2021, turned to an increase in 2022 when the construction economy slowed down, and increased by about 49% to 436.3 billion won in 2023 compared to the previous year. In this reality, the current Labor Standards Act imposes heavier responsibilities on the main contractor considering the subcontracting structure of construction sites. A representative example is Article 44-2 of the Labor Standards Act. This provision stipulates that even if a subcontractor other than the construction business fails to pay wages, the immediate subcontractor is also jointly and severally liable. This is a ‘no-fault liability’ structure that holds the original contractor responsible even if there is no direct fault. Because of this, the main contractor takes on unpredictable legal risks in areas that are difficult to directly manage and supervise. For example, let's assume that construction company A, the main contractor, entrusts the construction to company B, and then subcontracts it to company C, a human resources company that is not registered as a construction business. If Company C, which actually recruits and manages construction workers, fails to pay wages due to management difficulties, responsibility extends beyond Company B, which signed a contract with Company C, to Company A, the highest-ranking contractor. As Company A, it is shackled to be responsible for the wages of workers with whom it has no direct contractual relationship. Ultimately, in order for the main contractor to survive in such a tight legal liability network, much more specific and realistic defense measures are needed beyond simply writing a good contract. The following three options must be considered: First, actively utilize the direct payment system for subcontracting payments. Second, clearly establishing a unit price adjustment process according to price fluctuations. Lastly, it is important to carefully review the subcontractor's financial soundness before signing the contract. First and foremost, the direct payment system for subcontracting is an effective device that allows the main contractor to prevent legal disputes due to non-payment of wages or non-payment of payments in advance by paying subcontracting payments directly to workers or material and equipment suppliers rather than to intermediate recipients. In addition, in private construction, even if it is not a contractual obligation, the chain of joint liability that may arise in the future can be broken through the direct payment system. In addition, by checking the actual number of days worked and wage payment details of workers in real time through an electronic commuting system or mobile wage management platform, it is possible to fundamentally prevent payment omissions or delays. Second, if the burden on subcontractors increases due to design changes or a surge in raw material prices during construction, it is important to prepare a unit price adjustment process in advance to reflect this. By regularizing cost review meetings every quarter and specifying in the contract that unit price negotiations will automatically begin when material prices rise above a certain standard, the possibility of disputes over increased construction costs can be greatly reduced. In addition, by introducing a unit price adjustment model based on risk and comprehensively scoring the above items, a more reasonable and predictable contract is possible. Lastly, it is fundamental to thoroughly review whether the supplier is registered as a construction business and its financial soundness. In order to understand this, it can be prevented by mandating the submission of a construction business registration certificate and setting up wage payment guarantee insurance as a mandatory requirement of the contract. This goes beyond simply avoiding legal responsibility. This is because joint liability for non-payment of wages is not a one-time cost that damages one line of the main agency's financial statements, but a serious management risk that directly leads to long-term loss of trust and decline in brand value. In the construction industry, as the construction period is long and stakeholders are complexly intertwined, a single non-payment incident will affect the competitiveness of receiving orders and financial creditworthiness for years to come. Therefore, in order to prevent unpredictable financial losses and protect the trust of the field, organization, and market, 'prevention' is the best defense strategy and the only survival strategy.

Gangwon Hongcheon Police Station was found not guilty on charges of violating the Special Act on Prevention of Insurance Fraud on the 10th of last month. A decision was made not to send the booked man, Mr. A, in his 30s, without charges. Previously, Mr. A stopped his cargo vehicle at a construction site in Hongcheon, Gangwon-do in November 2024. However, the vehicle with the ignition on slid downhill and hit the vehicle of Mr. A's colleague, who was parked in front of him. There were no casualties in this accident, but Mr. A's cargo vehicle was severely damaged, resulting in property damage amounting to 16 million won. Accordingly, Mr. A reported the accident to Insurance Company B for insurance processing, and Insurance B reported that Mr. A intentionally caused the accident to receive insurance money and sued Mr. A. Insurance Company B sued Mr. A. It was based on the National Forensic Service's appraisal report. It is said that the appraisal report contains analysis results showing that there is a high possibility of an intentional accident. Mr. A denied all charges, claiming, “Insurance Company B filed the complaint without conducting a proper investigation into the situation at the scene or the circumstances surrounding the accident at the time of the accident.” The police also decided not to forward the case, finding that Mr. A was not guilty. The police said, “There is no special evidence that can be considered insurance fraud.” Lee Ji-yeon, a lawyer at Daeryun Law Firm who represented suspect A, explained, “After proving the cause of the accident based on the results of analysis of the situation just before the vehicle collision, the reason the impact was alleviated, and the area of the collision, we were able to conclude that there were no charges.” Attorney Lee Ji-yeon also said, “As Mr. “If the insurance company had conducted an accurate investigation into the accident, they would have immediately known that this accident was not intentional,” he added.

The Suncheon Police Station in South Jeolla Province decided not to forward Mr. A, the representative of a construction company in his 50s, who was booked on charges of violating the Framework Act on the Construction Industry on the 7th of last month. After receiving a subcontract for a new logistics center construction project from a construction company in 2022, Mr. A was accused of subcontracting to another construction company without the supplier's permission. According to Article 29, Paragraph 3 of the Framework Act on the Construction Industry, subcontracting is prohibited in principle, but when there is a need to increase construction efficiency, subcontracting is possible as an exception with written consent from the contractor. The Busan Regional Construction Management Office of the Ministry of Land, Infrastructure and Transport reported that Mr. A did not receive written consent during the subcontracting process and requested a complaint from the relevant agency. Mr. A reimburses in the event of non-payment of payment by the supplier when signing a subcontracting contract. He denied the charge, saying that he had received a payment guarantee agreeing to the method, but that this in fact amounted to written consent. The police accepted Mr. A's claim and decided not to forward the case. The police said, "The Framework Act on the Construction Industry prohibits subcontracting and requires written consent as an exception, but does not even stipulate a form or format for consent," and added, "It is confirmed that the supplier knew and approved it as a subcontract, even in the contents written in the guarantee, so the suspect is suspected. “There is not enough evidence to admit it.” Oh Sang-wan, a lawyer at Daeryun Law Firm who represented Mr. A, added, “Since the Framework Act on the Construction Industry only stipulates ‘agreement in writing,’ implied consent may also be permitted.” He added, “Even if the ‘agreement to subcontract’ content is not directly stated in the warranty, the obligation to agree in writing can be seen as being satisfied because the intention to agree to this was included.” Go Woori (wego@ikbc.co.kr)[View full article] Construction company acquitted on suspicion of subcontracting...

Afterwards, startup company B filed for bankruptcy, received investment from a VC, and then moved its business partner to a representative private corporation, effectively making the bankrupt venture industry “a case of violation of the duty of good faith… It must be resolved.” Startup company A is in the middle of a lawsuit with a venture capital (VC). This is because Company A used the investment funds to purchase cryptocurrency such as Bitcoin, contrary to the contractual purpose. VC filed a civil suit against Company A, requesting restoration of funds and compensation for damages. The criminal case filed charges of embezzlement or breach of trust. Previously, VC signed an investment contract with company A that imposed joint and several liability, joint guarantee liability, penalty for breach of contract, etc., but it was not enough to prevent the misappropriation of investment funds. After receiving investment from VC, startup company B transferred all clients of the existing corporation it pioneered to its new corporation. Investors filed civil and criminal lawsuits for violation of non-competition obligations and trade secret obligations, saying that as a result, the existing corporation's debt rapidly increased and it eventually filed for bankruptcy. According to the venture investment industry on the 13th, the worries of VCs and investors are deepening as some startups have recently intentionally filed for bankruptcy after using investment funds for personal purposes. This is because when a corporation goes bankrupt, the corporation and its debts disappear together, making it difficult to recover the investment. Kim Won-sang, senior attorney at Daeryun Law Firm, said, “There are often cases where corporate bankruptcy is filed for the purpose of seizing the corporation’s assets.” Attorney Kim said, “As long as it falls under legal excess debt (debts are greater than assets), the corporation can be declared bankrupt, and the corporation’s debts are extinguished as there is no separate exemption decision (decision that the remaining debt must be repaid). “It is abuse,” he explained. Although he did not intentionally file for bankruptcy, there are cases where the moral hazard of the individual representative was an issue. ‘Noda Lab’, a big data-based B2B trade transaction platform established in 2021, is planning to go through bankruptcy procedures. This is because the CEO fled abroad after using the investment funds without going through legal procedures. A VC who previously invested in Noda Lab believed that the company CEO had misappropriated the funds for personal purposes and raised the issue with the representative. The CEO reportedly returned the funds, claiming that he had used them for the company and not for personal purposes. However, the CEO is still absent, preventing the corporation from going through bankruptcy procedures. In 2023, Yoo Jeong-beom, CEO of Vroom operator Mesh Korea, withdrew and spent a total of 3 billion won without permission from the board of directors or court while the company was undergoing corporate rehabilitation procedures due to worsening liquidity. In July of this year, the court sentenced CEO Yoo to four years in prison on charges of breach of trust. The problem is that if the moral hazard of startups continues, the trust of VCs and investors will decline, which will likely weaken investment sentiment. One startup official said, “Investment in startups is just expanding, and I am concerned that the moral hazard of individuals will decrease the trust of VCs and weaken investment sentiment.” There is also a view that it is just a deviation of some individuals. An official familiar with the startup industry said, “With the launch of Korea Venture Investment since 2005, the government’s management and supervision functions have been strengthened, and in the private sector, accelerators (ACs) have emerged and close management is in place.” He added, “As most startup CEOs are conscientiously focusing on the growth of their companies, I hope that some cases are not seen as the whole.” Experts point out that individual self-purification is more important than supplementation through systems. One venture capital official said, “The CEO “If the duty of good faith is not fulfilled, the VC that manages the risk has no choice but to tighten the management,” he emphasized. “As this ultimately imposes sanctions on the founder’s active start-up activities, personal self-purification is necessary.” Reporter Kim Jeong-eun (xbookleader@chosunbiz.com)[View full article] Buy coins with investment money and file for bankruptcy...

On the 16th of last month, the Eastern Branch of the Busan District Court found Mr. A, a man in his 30s, not guilty, who was put on trial on charges of violating the Electronic Financial Transactions Act. Mr. A was charged with renting his access medium to a voice phishing gang in November 2023. I received it. According to the Electronic Financial Transactions Act, access media refers to means or information that can provide transaction instructions in electronic financial transactions, such as credit card public certificate passwords. Mr. A denied the charges. In the process of inquiring about the loan, a person in charge whose name was unknown said, “To increase the loan limit, you need to increase your cash holdings,” and he explained that he provided the public certificate password, etc., saying that the process of buying and selling stocks was necessary for this. He added, “We only promised to pay a fee equivalent to 5% of the principal amount when the loan was executed, and we did not provide the password in return for the loan.” The court found him not guilty. The purpose of the case in question is that the access medium in this case was not provided in exchange for providing a loan opportunity, but was merely used as a means to realize the promised loan. The court also added, “There is ample room for the defendant to believe that additional actions in the above process were necessary in a situation where the loan from the loan company was not possible, and he later voluntarily visited the police to understand the situation and made efforts to obtain proof.” Attorney Nakhyeong Kim of Daeryun Law Firm, who served as Mr. A’s legal representative, said, “Access media. “For a rental crime to be established, the suspect must receive or have the perception of economic benefits commensurate with the rental,” he said. “Through Mr. A’s KakaoTalk conversation, we were able to obtain acquittal by emphasizing that Mr. A was not aware of the crime, such as continuously checking for illegality during the loan execution process.” Digital Content Team[View full article] “Change to high interest rates”...

A man who was sent to trial on charges of establishing a paper company and issuing false tax invoices was acquitted. Daeryun Law Firm announced on the 12th that the 11th Criminal Division of the Suwon District Court found Mr. A, a man in his 50s, not guilty on charges of issuing false tax invoices on the 11th of last month. In 2021, he was accused of establishing a so-called 'bomb company' that did not supply services or goods to avoid taxes and issuing false tax invoices worth about 3.3 billion won. In response, Mr. A denied the charges, saying there was no purpose for tax evasion. Mr. A's defense is that he established a new company to change the delivery form from an individual business to a corporation, but the contractor put the contract on hold, so the existing business only continued operations by signing a subcontract with the new company. The court found Mr. A not guilty. The court ruled that Mr. A established a corporate company in the same building and on the same floor as the existing business and exchanged service work, which was the same as the service provided to the contractor, so the defendant did not actually supply it. Although there was suspicion that a tax invoice was issued, the court ruled not guilty, citing the fact that documents such as monthly transaction payment statements and specific shipment details were prepared along with the subcontract agreement and building lease agreement. In addition, the court explained the background of the acquittal, saying, “It appears that the employees hired by the corporation performed the work received from the contractor and even delivered the corresponding delivery.” Attorney Park Gyu-seok of Daeryun Law Firm, who represented Mr. A, said, “According to the Supreme Court precedent, “The existence of a physical transaction means that there is a legal agreement between the parties to supply goods or services,” he explained. “We were able to prove that there was a physical transaction by emphasizing that an agreement existed based on the fact that the company established by Mr. A was an independent company and that the monthly production volume and unit price were specified in the documents submitted when requesting the contract payment.” Reporter Park Chae-ryeong (chae@kyeonggi.com)[View full article] A man who started a paper company and issued false tax invoices is not guilty (link) 2026-05-06T16:59:07.740Z https://www.daeryunlaw.com/en/broadcast/5524 Since the Trump administration strengthened mutual tariffs, Korean companies' investments in the U.S. and entry into the U.S. market have increased, but the number of cases facing difficulties due to complex legal regulations in the U.S. is increasing. Accordingly, domestic law firms are moving to build networks in the United States and strengthen legal advisory services. According to a report by the Korea Institute for Industrial Economics and Trade on the 12th, Korea's cumulative investment in the United States increased significantly from about $40 billion (about 55 trillion won) in 2014 to $130 billion (about 181 trillion won) in 2023. During the same period, the number of domestic companies entering the U.S. increased by approximately 43%, from 11,101 to 15,876. Experts emphasize that the assistance of legal experts is essential for successful entry into the U.S. market. According to a survey by the Korea Federation of Mid-sized Enterprises, mid-sized companies cited rising raw material costs as difficulties in the export market, as well as problems with applying local laws such as import regulations and customs clearance in export destination countries. An official from an IT company said, "We tried to enter the U.S. market without separate consultation, but the service opening was delayed due to legal issues related to personal information and patents." A global strategy researcher said, "The U.S. has a structure that makes it difficult for domestic companies to respond alone because the regulations of the federal and state governments are intertwined in multiple layers." He advised that it is important to receive help from experts from the early stages in order to respond to regulations such as intellectual property rights and personal information protection. In line with this trend, domestic law firms are also strengthening support for entering the U.S. market. Daeryun Law Firm signed an MOU with 'Koriny', an American real estate platform company, in March of this year, and has been cooperating with 'Bridgeway IP Law Firm', a law firm specializing in American intellectual property rights, since July to support patent applications and IP licensing practices. An office is also scheduled to open at One World Trade Center (1WTC) in Manhattan, New York. Daeryuk Aju Law Firm opened an office in Washington, D.C. in 2022, and Yulchon Law Firm expanded and reorganized its international trade, international taxation, and customs teams into a trade industry specialty team in preparation for the launch of the second Trump administration. DLG, a law firm, opened a U.S. office in Silicon Valley early this year and began providing legal services. An industry official said, “In a complex regulatory system like the U.S., it is difficult to enter the market successfully through simple contract review alone,” and added, “The demand for law firms with practical experience and are well-versed in local laws from the early stages is increasing.” Reporter Hwang Jeong-won (jwhwang@mt.co.kr)[View full article] Regulations and lawsuits are ‘an obstacle’ for companies entering the US market… ‘Speed’ of K Law Firm’s overseas expansion (Go here) 2026-05-12T17:14:01.148Z https://www.daeryunlaw.com/en/broadcast/5520 Daeryun Law Firm (Limited) is attracting attention by providing legal support for young people who have been harmed by crimes by impersonating them. According to the legal community on the 11th, Daeryun submitted a letter of appointment as a lawyer to the Daegu Seongseo Police Station on behalf of Mr. A, in his 20s, who was recently a victim of fraud on a second-hand trading platform. Mr. A suffered fraud while disposing of a luxury bag through Carrot Market, a second-hand trading platform, around June of this year. The unidentified buyer contacted Mr. A through an external channel. Mr. A, who had induced a transaction and needed to quickly dispose of the product at the time, responded to the offer and was defrauded worth 8 million won. The problem is that while looking for a law firm for legal action, Mr. A fell victim to a fraudster impersonating Dae-ryun again. The other party is known to have impersonated a Dae-ryun counselor and embezzled money under the pretense of accepting a civil or criminal case. After hearing Mr. A's sad story, Dae-ryun took on Mr. A's case. We decided to provide legal support. Attorney Young-kyung Ko of Daeryun's Gwangju branch office, who represented Mr. A, said, "I couldn't help but be angry when I heard that Mr. A, who had been going through a difficult time due to fraud, suffered secondary damage from an impersonator who impersonated our company." He added, "I want to make every effort to take additional procedures to alleviate Mr. A's injustice." Daeryun will continue to provide legal support to victims of crimes impersonating Daeryun, such as Mr. A. The plan is to provide a variety of legal support to young people and the underprivileged who are experiencing difficulties.

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."

The command system is clear and assumes absolute obedience to orders, and all members maintain order and discipline through group life. Due to these characteristics, strict standards are applied to disciplinary action for various violations that occur during service. The level of disciplinary action is determined depending on the degree of misconduct, and soldiers receive reprimands, probation, vacation restrictions, pay reductions, military training, and demotion. On the other hand, professional soldiers are subject to sanctions ranging from light discipline such as reprimand, probation, and pay reduction to more severe discipline such as suspension, demotion, dismissal, and dismissal. The Military Personnel Judicial Act stipulates that soldiers will be disciplined if they violate or neglect their duties. Examples of this include failing to follow instructions, insulting superiors, and refusing orders. In addition, even if the issue is not related to the job, such as drunk driving, infidelity, or inappropriate use of social media, disciplinary action may be taken if it is judged to be a violation of dignity. This mainly becomes a problem when criminal punishment is received, such as assault, sexual offenses, and drunk driving. For example, if a soldier commits drunk driving, he will not only be criminally punished under the Road Traffic Act, but will also be subject to disciplinary action for violating the duty to maintain dignity. Especially these days, a lot of attention is needed as many cases of severe disciplinary action have been confirmed for problems in the private sector, such as adultery or inappropriate use of social media. Military disciplinary action does not simply limit the impact of service itself. In particular, in the case of professional soldiers, disciplinary records have a significant impact on their entire military career, including promotion and assignment. Even if you only receive a light disciplinary action such as a reprimand, probation, or pay reduction, it can cause you to miss out on a promotion or fail the long-term service review, and if you receive a severe disciplinary action greater than suspension, your career will virtually come to a halt. Not only must they undergo a screening for unsuitability for active duty service, but upon dismissal or dismissal, they are subject to restrictions on public employment for 3 years and 5 years, respectively, and their severance pay is reduced by 25% and 50%. For professional soldiers for whom military service itself is the core of their career, military disciplinary action can be a fatal blow to their entire career. For ordinary soldiers, military disciplinary action is often taken lightly because the service period is fixed. However, it is not a matter to be taken lightly in that if a person is discharged as a corporal after receiving a severe disciplinary action such as a 'demotion', he or she may be negatively influenced by some public institutions or private companies and may have a long-term disadvantageous stigma. The military disciplinary process is carried out through a disciplinary review committee after a factual investigation. At this time, the person subject to disciplinary action has the right to submit sufficient explanatory materials prior to deliberation, and during this process, he/she may claim that his or her actions do not fall under the grounds for disciplinary action or that there are extenuating circumstances. If he or she believes that the disposition made by the disciplinary committee is unreasonable, he or she may take relief procedures through an appeal. An appeal must be filed within 30 days from the date of notification of the disposition, and if the disciplinary action is deemed illegal or unfair as a result of the review, it may be overturned or the punishment may be reduced. If the result is not satisfactory even after the appeal, you can respond through administrative litigation. In particular, if you have received severe disciplinary action such as dismissal, dismissal, or demotion, there will be a greater need to file a lawsuit to cancel the disciplinary action and receive a court decision. In this case, the court comprehensively reviews the facts of the reason for disciplinary action, the legality of the disciplinary procedure, and the proportionality and appropriateness of the punishment. Attorney Seo In-ho of the Daeryun Law Firm in Chuncheon said, "If you are in danger of disciplinary action, it is best to receive assistance from a military lawyer from the beginning and sufficiently prepare all explanatory materials during the disciplinary review process to seek a solution based on your rights and procedural legitimacy." He advised, “It is advisable to resolve the issue through the assistance of a military lawyer.” Global Epic CP Lee Soo-hwan / lsh@globalepic.co.kr Military disciplinary action and response methods explained by a lawyer (link) 2026-05-12T14:32:00.433Z https://www.daeryunlaw.com/en/broadcast/5516 world health organization(WHO)The definition of obesity as a disease 1994It's a year.

In the era of losing weight through injections, the light and dark side of the WeGoBe craze [Weekend Digging] (Go here) 2026-05-11T06:15:03.051Z https://www.daeryunlaw.com/en/broadcast/5515 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.

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.

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.

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."

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.

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...

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) 2026-05-06T22:23:12.057Z https://www.daeryunlaw.com/en/broadcast/5505 Daeryun Law Firm announced on the 5th that it has signed a business agreement with ‘LMinds Co., Ltd.’, an AI-based voice recognition technology solution company, and will join forces to respond to legal risks and strengthen technology commercialization advice.

According to the legal community on the 5th, the Eastern Branch of the Busan District Court sentenced Mr. A, in his 30s, to three years in prison on charges of fraud using computers, etc. on the 24th of last month. Mr. A was accused of embezzling 170 million won by using the card and making loans without permission on 81 occasions using the mobile phone of Mr. B, with whom he was in a romantic relationship, in 2022. He was indicted. Mr. B claimed that Mr. A unlocked his cell phone and did this while he was asleep. He also claimed that after the crime was discovered, when he demanded repayment, Mr. B made threats, including throwing objects. On the other hand, Mr. A denied the charges, saying he received Mr. B's consent. The court ruled in Mr. B's favor. It was determined that Mr. A arbitrarily canceled the card notification service to prevent loan-related text messages from being sent to Mr. B, and that even after Mr. B changed his public certificate password, he re-registered the password again and received loans repeatedly. Because of Mr. A's unauthorized use of the card and the loan, Mr. B received notices of performance reminders, seizures, collections, and auctions from financial institutions, and was sued. However, Mr. A denied the crime and did not repay the damages, the court ruled. Attorney Jeon Hyeon-joo of Daeryun Law Firm, who represented him, explained, "Mr. A reassured Mr. B, who noticed the crime and demanded repayment, saying, 'I will repay the money,' but after that, the loan amount actually increased.

On the 10th of last month, the 14th Division of the Seoul Administrative Court ruled in favor of the plaintiff in a lawsuit filed by a man in his 50s, A, in his 50s, against transportation company B to cancel the unfair dismissal sanctions judgment. I received notice of dismissal from Company B for violating my duties and engaging in breach of trust. At the time, the executives pursued a contract to lend funds to affiliates, but Mr. A caused losses to the company by obeying their unfair instructions without securing appropriate collateral. Mr. A claimed unfair dismissal and applied for relief from the Local Labor Relations Commission, but it was rejected. He also requested a retrial from the National Labor Relations Commission, but it was dismissed again on the grounds that ‘grounds for disciplinary action exist and the amount of punishment is appropriate.’ Accordingly, Mr. A filed an administrative lawsuit to cancel the retrial decision. During the trial, Mr. A argued that the company's disciplinary action was excessive. He said that he was notified of the decisions made by the former management and the board of directors and only followed instructions, but was not aware of the specific circumstances, so it was difficult to determine that it was a breach of trust. The court ruled in Mr. A's favor. First, the court explained, “It is difficult to justify that the plaintiff, who is in charge of the business, followed the management’s decision without sufficiently reviewing or raising questions about the risks of lending, bond security, and collection plans,” and added, “The retrial ruling that he violated his professional duty not to respond to unfair instructions is reasonable.” However, the court said, “The management points out that the plaintiff participated in the breach of trust by former executives as a reason for disciplinary action, but it is difficult to say that the plaintiff devised or directly proposed an illegal means.” He added, “Dismissal is an overly excessive disciplinary action, as it is reasonable to say that it is recognized only to the extent of violation of job duties, excluding active participation in breach of trust.” Attorney Ki-eun Lee of Daeryun Law Firm, which represented Mr. A, said, “According to social norms, a dismissal is justified only when the employee is responsible to the extent that the employment relationship cannot continue, and this is judged by comprehensively considering the motive and circumstances of the misconduct, the status of the worker, etc.,” adding, “At the time, Mr. A was directly involved in management’s decision-making.” “I was not involved, and the difficulty of handling work contrary to orders due to my position was accepted, so it was recognized as excessive disciplinary action,” he explained.

On the 7th of last month, the Busan District Prosecutors' Office decided not to indict Mr. A, who was accused of fraud. Mr. A was accused of intentionally hiding a business loan worth 60 million won received in the name of the cafe when transferring the cafe to the complainant, B, in October 2022. Mr. B acquired the cafe by transferring Mr. A's business registration number as is in order to inherit the existing reviews of the delivery app. Afterwards, while looking for a new loan, Mr. B was told that a loan had already been made using Mr. A's business number, so additional loans were not possible. Accordingly, Mr. B asked Mr. A to repay the existing loan in full, but when this was not accepted, he filed a complaint. Mr. A denied the fraud charges. Although he received a loan, he claimed that it was not for the purpose of passing it on to Mr. B. Mr. A explained, “The loan in question was made before taking over from Mr. B for purposes such as interior decoration of the cafe and operating funds,” and “At the time of signing the contract, we also revealed that it would be difficult to make additional loans in the name of the business.” The prosecution found that Mr. A was not guilty. The prosecution explained, “Considering that the complainant had run the cafe for about two years after signing the contract and looked for a loan, it cannot be concluded that whether or not the loan was a key aspect of the transaction at the time of the transfer contract. Since the suspect also repaid all of the loan, it is difficult to say that he intentionally deceived the complainant.” Attorney Kwon Ji-hye of Daeryun Law Firm, who represented Mr. A, said, “For a fraud to be established, there must be a direct causal relationship between the act of deception and the resulting property damage.” “It must be proven,” he said. “Because the loan in question was Mr. A’s personal debt, there was no obligation to notify, but Mr. A clearly demonstrated that he notified Mr. B of this and that no actual property damage occurred.” Digital Content Team[View full article] The owner who hid a 60 million won loan and took over the cafe...Prosecutors “No damage to the transferee” (Shortcut) 2026-05-09T12:23:29.368Z https://www.daeryunlaw.com/en/broadcast/5498 The CEO of a startup who was investigated by the prosecution on charges of issuing false tax invoices worth 400 million won was acquitted. On the 8th of last month, the Daejeon District Prosecutors' Office decided not to indict Mr. A, in his 40s, who is suspected of violating the Punishment Act on Tax Defenders. Mr. A is suspected of having received false tax invoices stating that he had received materials and services from two companies, including a manufacturer, from October to December 2023. Mr. A is accused of receiving these false tax invoices. The total value of the tax invoices issued by the company amounted to 450 million won. According to Article 10 of the Tax Offenders Punishment Act, if a false tax invoice is issued without a physical transaction, one may be imprisoned for up to one year or fined up to twice the tax amount calculated by applying the value-added tax rate to the supply price. In the investigation by the investigative agency, Mr. A said, "When receiving materials from the manufacturer, only ownership is transferred and the actual He denied the charge, saying, "The goods were placed in the company's warehouse, leading to a misunderstanding that a false tax invoice was issued." He then explained, "The reason a cash transaction did not take place during the payment process was because the transaction was carried out in a way to write off the debt the company had previously borne." The prosecution decided not to indict Mr. A due to insufficient evidence, believing that the statements of the companies were consistent with Mr. A's statements and that there was a related contract, so there was no charge. The prosecution said, "Mr. A was transferred from the companies. He stated the reason for the disposition, saying, "There is no basis to conclude that a tax invoice was received without receiving goods or services." Mr. A's legal representative, attorney Jeong In-ho of Daeryun Law Firm, said, "After signing a contract with the manufacturer, Mr. A received the materials through revision of possession (transfer of ownership, maintenance of possession) rather than actual delivery." He explained, "In the case of other companies, Mr. A was unable to afford to pay the transaction price at the time, so he wrote an IOU and received the goods. However, this was also a matter of mutual agreement, and partial repayment was made." He added, "Because this case cannot be seen as creating a false tax invoice without a physical transaction, a non-prosecution should be imposed on Mr. A."

(Shortcut) 2026-05-13T19:03:11.978Z https://www.daeryunlaw.com/en/broadcast/5495 An acquaintance of mine with whom I had not been in contact for some time recently called. An acquaintance said that he got divorced by agreement last year due to his spouse's cheating, and that after the divorce by agreement, he sent child support for his minor daughter for 3 to 4 months, but has not been paying child support for several months. Surprisingly, cases of non-payment of child support, which the author is currently in charge of, have also occurred to acquaintances close to the author. According to the 'Single-Parent Family Survey' conducted by the Ministry of Gender Equality and Family last year, 7 out of 10 (71.3%) reported never receiving child support from the non-custodial parent. Parents who raise their children alone after divorce have the burden of raising their children as well as their own lives, and the biggest problem is by far the financial problem. As the head of a single-parent family, you inevitably need money to raise a child, and any parent who has raised a child will know how frustrating and frustrating it would be if the ex-spouse avoided contact or unilaterally stopped paying child support. Ms. A, a working mother raising two children alone while divorcing by agreement due to her spouse's cheating, promised to pay child support of 700,000 won per child per month when divorcing by agreement with her ex-spouse, but her ex-husband did not pay child support every month, even when he did. A small amount of about 200,000 won was paid. In this situation, Ms. A can forcibly execute the ex-husband's property without a separate civil suit by using the child support burden record prepared and delivered in the divorce procedure by agreement as the right of execution. If the ex-husband does not comply, the family court may issue a direct payment order or performance order in accordance with Articles 63-2 and 64 of the Family Litigation Act. Violation of compliance orders may result in imprisonment and a fine of up to 10 million won. Imprisonment is a sanction that allows detention in a detention center for up to 30 days if the court's decision is not complied with. In addition, pursuant to Articles 21-3 to 21-5 of the Act on Securing and Supporting Compliance with Child Support, a driver's license suspension and ban on leaving the country can be requested for defaulters, and indirect sanctions such as disclosure of names are also possible. However, although the performance order and detention order are very powerful means of securing compliance, the other party may request that the child support defaulter be banned from leaving the country. If the delivery of legal documents is interrupted, it is very likely that the trial itself will be delayed as it is difficult for the hearing to be held, and execution is also not easy if you change your residence even after the citation has been cited. For this reason, the issue of child support is likely to become a long-term battle that will not end for several years, and those who claim payment are often emotionally exhausted before receiving the actual child support, so it is necessary to prepare sanctions that ensure speed and effectiveness. Due to this problem, the 'Act on Securing and Supporting Compliance with Child Support' was revised in 2021 to provide for defaulters who intentionally fail to pay child support, but who do not fulfill their child support obligations for less than one year despite receiving a detention order. The basis has been established for criminal punishment of imprisonment or a fine of up to 10 million won. From July 1, 2025, child support will be paid by the state first to children from single-parent families with a median income of 150% or less, and will be collected from non-custodians who are debtors of child support in accordance with the example of compulsory national tax collection. It is said that about 500 applications were received on the first day of implementation when the advance payment system was implemented. When going through a child support lawsuit, you realize that what the custodial parent ultimately wants is not an execution right such as a judgment or imprisonment or punishment of the other party, but the immediate deposit of the money needed to raise the child. In today's era of high prices, child support is not only a matter of children's well-being, but also a matter directly related to their survival, and is also the responsibility of parents who are bound to their children. Recently, while raising three children, including myself, I feel a lot of gratitude towards my mother, who was unable to buy even the right things for herself. Children will also one day come to know such parental love.[View full article] [Monday Column] Child support directly related to a child’s right to survive (link) 2026-05-13T05:47:41.908Z https://www.daeryunlaw.com/en/broadcast/5491 When an incident occurred in the process of filling out a fact-confirmation report for a school violence incident, a report was filed for emotional abuse... Prosecutors applied for violating the Child Welfare Act, saying, "As a teacher, it is inevitable to accurately understand the facts of school violence." There was a case in which a teacher who was sent to the prosecution on charges of swearing and other abuse while teaching a student who committed school violence was acquitted. On the 7th, the Cheongju District Prosecutors' Office reported A, a teacher in his 40s who was sent on charges of violating the Child Welfare Act (child abuse). A non-indictment decision was made. While investigating a school violence case last January, Mr. A was accused of damaging the child's mental health by swearing at a student suspected of school violence, such as "Hey, you bastard." The parents of the perpetrator filed a criminal complaint against Mr. A, claiming there was a problem with his teaching method. It is known that the student stated that he felt anxious due to Mr. A's words and actions at the time. Mr. A refuted this claim by saying that it was only discipline and not abuse. Mr. A claimed, “There may have been somewhat strong guidance in the process of writing the fact confirmation regarding the serious issue of school violence, but there was absolutely no conduct that could be considered abuse.” The prosecutors who investigated this case decided not to indict. This is because it is judged that Mr. A, as a teacher, has a duty to confirm the facts of school abuse. The prosecution said, “Mr. A was in a situation where he had to determine the exact facts, and there was a need to conduct this process in a somewhat serious atmosphere.” He said, “Considering that there was no assault or threat during the proceeding, Mr. A is not suspected of child abuse.” Attorney Lee Eun-seong of Daeryun Law Firm, who represented suspect A in this case, said, “Mr. “Because I was the head of the grade department, when school violence occurred, I had the obligation to fairly investigate the facts of harm and damage to students and report the results to my superiors,” he explained. “In fact, in accordance with the Act on Prevention and Countermeasures against School Violence, when we are aware of a case of school violence, we have a dedicated organization or an affiliated teacher confirm the facts of harm and damage without delay.” Attorney Eun-seong Lee said, “Mr. A complies with the requirements within the scope permitted by education laws and school regulations.” “The procedures were followed,” he said, adding, “This can be seen as an educational necessity and an act to maintain order in the school.” Law Leader Reporter Son Dong-wook twson@lawleader.co.kr Law Leader - Teacher accused of child abuse while teaching school violence...

The court ruled that if there was a conflict of opinion about the boundary even after the cadastral reinvestigation notification, it is a case of dispute. According to the legal community on the 31st, the 1st administrative division of the Gwangju High Court filed a lawsuit filed by a woman in her 70s, A, on the 26th of last month, against the Jeollanam-do Administrative Tribunal for cancellation of the administrative judgment decision. The appeals court canceled the first trial judgment and ruled in favor of the plaintiff. Mr. A is the owner of land in a village located in Goheung-gun, Jeollanam-do. There is a stone wall between the adjacent land of Mr. B. Mr. A has been managing and occupying the land on a daily basis, including installing a TV receiver in the space beyond the stone wall, because according to the cadastral map, this space was Mr. A's land. However, in 2021, Goheung-gun sent Mr. A a cadastral confirmation notice. The conflict began when the county sent a report to Mr. A. The county notified Mr. A of its plan to adjust the boundary using the stone wall as the actual boundary according to the results of the cadastral resurvey survey. In this case, the space beyond the stone wall that Mr. A had used for a long time will be owned by Mr. B. Accordingly, Mr. A submitted a written opinion to the county requesting that the boundary between the two lands be maintained as existing. The county boundary determination committee accepted Mr. A's opinion, but Mr. B objected and filed an objection. The committee dismissed the decision. However, Mr. B filed an administrative appeal again, and the Jeollanam-do Administrative Appeals Commission subsequently canceled the county's decision to dismiss. Mr. A filed an administrative lawsuit based on Article 14, Paragraph 1 of the Cadastral Resurvey Act. The relevant provision stipulates that 'if there is no dispute over the land boundary, the boundary shall be determined based on the actual boundary of occupation, and if there is a dispute, the boundary shall be determined based on the survey record at the time of registration.' Mr. A has been involved since before the cadastral resurvey survey. Since he was actually using the space, he claimed that it was a case of 'a dispute' between the two landowners. The first trial court dismissed Mr. A's claim. The court said, "The plaintiff did not request Mr. B to move the fence outside the boundary or file a lawsuit related to this until before the cadastral resurvey project, and only submitted a written opinion after completing the survey," and ruled, "Therefore, it is difficult to say that there was a dispute regarding the boundary." Dissatisfied, Mr. A appealed, and the second trial. The court ruled in Mr. A's favor. The appellate court explained, "Before the cadastral resurvey, there was no room for a dispute to arise as Mr. B did not use the space in question, but after the boundary adjustment notification, the plaintiff submitted a written opinion. Even after the cadastral resurvey, if there was a conflict of opinion about the boundary, this should be considered a 'case of dispute.'" Attorney Ko Young-kyung of Daeryun Law Firm, representing Mr. A, said, "The land owners did not give each other explicit or implicit consent to use the land." He said, "If the land was used accordingly, even if there was no long-term dispute, it cannot be concluded that there is no dispute over the ground boundary unless there are special circumstances such as agreement or relinquishment of ownership." He explained, "We were able to overturn the result in the appellate trial by emphasizing that Mr. A did not give up ownership of the land, citing the fact that he occupied and managed facilities beyond the fence regardless of the structure."

This revision was promoted with the purpose of strengthening the rights of minority shareholders and increasing transparency in corporate governance. Although the business community sympathizes with the purpose of this amendment, they are expressing concerns about the side effects it may have. This is because it includes some toxic provisions that have a significant impact on corporate governance. So what provisions are the business community concerned about? Looking at the main contents, there are ① introduction of directors' duty of loyalty to shareholders, ② introduction of independent director system, ③ expansion of application of the combined 3% rule when electing and dismissing audit committee members, and ④ introduction of electronic general shareholders' meeting system. First, Article 382-3 of the current Commercial Act stipulates directors' duty of loyalty to the company, but no duty of loyalty to shareholders has been established. Accordingly, it was stipulated that directors should perform their duties for the benefit of not only the company but also the shareholders. For this reason, if the board of directors' decisions infringe on the interests of minority shareholders, they can now be held legally responsible. In the end, it is pointed out that this could lead to a decline in management activities as the possibility of shareholders increasing their lawsuits, such as seeking compensation for damages or accusing directors of breach of trust, is increasing. The introduction of the independent director system is also a big concern for companies. This system includes changing the name of outside directors to independent directors and increasing the mandatory appointment ratio (from more than 1/4 to more than 1/3). This is a system originally used in the United States, and its purpose is to separate ownership and management and prevent arbitrary decision-making. The purpose is to increase fairness and transparency in management, but there is also the problem of excessively restricting autonomous management rights. The following is a revision to the election and dismissal of audit committee members. The amendment strengthened the regulations related to the appointment of audit committee members for listed companies with total assets of 2 trillion won or more. Accordingly, the so-called 'combined 3% rule', which limits the combined voting rights of the largest shareholder and related parties to 3% when appointing audit committee members of a listed company, will be expanded to apply to all audit committee members. The purpose is to increase the independence of the audit committee by expanding the regulations that previously applied only to inside directors to include outside directors. However, since most companies organize their audit committees with outside directors, such revisions are bound to be a burden. In particular, as minority shareholders, institutional investors, etc. can exercise substantial influence in the audit committee selection process, related disputes are likely to increase. Some argue that the management rights of major shareholders are the right to form the board of directors, and this is being infringed upon. The last thing to consider is the introduction of electronic general shareholders' meetings. Previously, shareholders exercised their voting rights by physically attending the general meeting of shareholders, but with this revision, participation in resolutions through electronic methods became possible from a remote location. As time and space constraints disappear, minority shareholders can conveniently participate in general shareholders' meetings and participate in management. However, from the company's perspective, many trials and errors are expected for complete introduction as there are still legal responsibilities such as security issues and the cost burden associated with establishing an electronic voting system. In summary, companies are concerned that management uncertainty will increase due to the unprecedented situation of a board of directors led by external forces rather than the existing major shareholder-centered board. Even from a professional standpoint, realistically, it seems close to impossible to combine the interests of all the various shareholders. What should we do to minimize damage to companies during this crisis? First, it is necessary to establish a response plan tailored to each company's situation. This is because the strategy is bound to change depending on whether it is listed or not, shareholder equity ratio, board structure, etc. Once you have established an initial direction, you must begin practical preparations to support it. Specifically, it is necessary to document and manage the actual roles and responsibilities of the board of directors. In addition, it is recommended that risks be minimized by closely examining the confrontational structure before submitting the future audit committee appointment proposal. In addition, preemptive preparations such as ensuring the stability and security of the electronic shareholders' meeting system and maintaining the manual will be necessary. Through this, we believe that we can ultimately improve management transparency and improve corporate governance to increase corporate value.

While the CEO of Uplus KMA (hereinafter referred to as UK Platform), which was engaged in an asset management service business, is under arrest and investigation on fraud-related charges, Daeryun Law Firm announced on the 29th that it will gather victims and file a class action lawsuit. Daeryun estimates that there are more than thousands of UK Platform members across the country. UK Platform, headquartered in Changwon-si, Gyeongnam, has been recruiting members by saying it provides an all-in-one service that takes care of health, leisure, and retirement at once. In addition, it is known that more investors were gathered by utilizing a referral system where existing members receive rewards when they attract new members. The company operated by giving members points that could be used on the platform when they provided investment funds. Specifically, members were encouraged to receive a variety of services by guaranteeing a 5-10% return on investment per month and paying points worth four times the amount invested. Members were expected to use these points to receive services such as receiving treatment at affiliated hospitals or taking cruises through travel companies. In particular, the CEO of the UK platform introduced himself as a doctor and received a large amount of investment from members, but was arrested last month on charges of violating medical law and fraud. Accordingly, the original promise was not properly carried out, and damage continued to occur, such as the payment of profits or the use of services were stopped. Because of this, members demanded a return of their investment, but Daeryun explained that the company was even massaging secondary damage by encouraging members to reinvest their points into coins. As damage continued to occur, Daeryun Law Firm formed the UK Platform Fraud Victims Criminal Complaint Task Force (TF). Daeryun plans to form a team of lawyers with extensive experience in Ponzi fraud cases and take formal procedures, including filing a fraud complaint against the UK platform representative. In addition, it plans to identify the specific amount of damage, organize damage cases by type, and file a complaint. We also plan to focus on requests for investigation of suspected accomplices. In addition, it was decided to proceed with civil actions such as claims for damages and provisional seizure if necessary. Daeryun Law Firm's CEO Kim Gook-il said, "Recently, so-called Ponzi schemes that prevent investors from returning their money have been rampant. Now, they have taken on a multi-level format and the scale of damage is becoming enormous." “I will help you do that,” he said.

The revised Commercial Act, aimed at improving corporate governance centered on major shareholders and strengthening shareholder rights, is predicting changes in the mergers and acquisitions (M&A) market. In the long term, increased trust and revitalization of the M&A market are expected, but there are also concerns that hostile M&A attempts may increase. The legal community advises that a careful transaction structure must be designed while at the same time securing M&A legitimacy and procedural transparency. According to the legal community on the 28th, the revised Commercial Act promulgated this month includes the expansion of directors' loyalty obligations to shareholders, the conversion of outside directors to independent directors, and the '3% rule' that limits the voting rights of major shareholders when appointing audit committee members. The key is to check the dominance of major shareholders and protect the interests and rights of all shareholders. This sends a positive message, including revitalizing the M&A market. Attorney Shin Jong-soo of Daeryun Law Firm said, "Clarifying directors' loyalty obligations to shareholders and strengthening the independent director system can lead to improvements in corporate governance, so there are aspects that can contribute to increasing the trust of overseas investors and revitalizing the M&A market." Attorney Lee Young-ju of One Law Firm predicted, "I think this will have the effect of strengthening minority shareholder rights in the M&A market, leading to more active transactions and an increase in various types of participants." Some say that among exit (investment recovery) methods, the preference for initial public offering (IPO) will decrease and the M&A method of acquiring 100% of stocks will be preferred. Seunggyu Byun, a lawyer at Seum Law Firm, explained, "Exiting through an IPO has the advantage of allowing the founder to maintain management rights, but since the stocks are distributed to multiple shareholders, there is a possibility that they may file a lawsuit for violation of the fiduciary duty of directors, including the founder." He continued, “Unlike an IPO, M&A-type exits do not disperse stocks or distribute them on a large scale, so they can maintain a closed shareholder structure and the risk of being sued by shareholders is relatively small,” and added, “Even among companies that are already listed, the number of cases of voluntarily delisting due to difficulties in shareholder management is expected to increase more than before.” Careful transaction design and transaction fairness need to be reviewed. There were also many voices concerned about being exposed to hostile M&A attempts due to the impact of the revised Commercial Act. Attorney Shin said, "External investors may point out management problems of the controlling shareholder and attempt to propose a hostile M&A and appoint an audit committee member, claiming that it is beneficial to all shareholders. In this case, the directors must be in the position of so-called auctioneers by fairly reviewing the interests of all shareholders, not the existing management and controlling shareholders, so the likelihood of hostile M&A attempts and success is likely to increase." Kim Ji-ho, an attorney at Lin Law Firm (Limited), pointed out, "As directors' responsibilities will increase in the short term and the unclear interpretation of their duty of loyalty will continue for some time, there are concerns that companies may hesitate or reduce the size of M&A." He added, "There is also a possibility that the M&A process will become cloudy, with the acquired company requesting more favorable transaction terms or delaying negotiations on the grounds of possible violation of directors' duties." As changes in the M&A market under the Revised Commercial Act become inevitable, the transaction structure is There are also voices calling for more careful design. Lim Dong-han, an attorney at Dongin Law Firm, said, "In particular, the risk of directors' violation of their fiduciary duties must be carefully considered when designing a transaction structure that may conflict with the interests of controlling shareholders and general shareholders. This can increase the complexity of the transaction structure in major M&A transactions such as mergers, listings of subsidiaries, and physical spin-offs." In addition, some point out that it is important to review to ensure that there are no problems with procedural transparency and transaction fairness. This means that they must keep in mind the possibility that shareholder lawsuits or criminal lawsuits related to management's breach of trust may be filed during the transaction process. Attorney Yoo Seok-hyun of the law firm Mission said, "The interests of all shareholders were considered during the M&A process, but the management judgment criteria for whether the will of some shareholders were ultimately violated are still unclear. Accordingly, companies should prepare more objective data and fair procedures than before to prepare for the intervention of minority shareholders and secure the legitimacy and transparency of M&A to increase corporate value and reliability. “We need to take this as an opportunity,” he advised.

On the 1st, Suwon District Court's 6-1 Criminal Division rejected the prosecution's appeal and declared him not guilty at the appeal trial of a man in his 40s on fraud charges. Maintained. Mr. A was accused of deceiving Mr. B, the president of a gas supplier, into paying overdue gas bills on his behalf in 2023. In addition, he was accused of failing to pay for gas after receiving gas from Mr. B's company. As a result of the investigation, it was confirmed that Mr. A became delinquent in gas payments as the management of the factory deteriorated, and subsequently signed a new contract with Mr. B's company. Mr. B claimed that at the time of the contract, Mr. A emphasized that his financial situation would soon improve and promised repayment, but did not keep this promise. The prosecution judged that Mr. A did not have the intention or ability to repay, given that the factory's management conditions were not good at the time and that this contract was signed while there were large separate debts. During the trial, Mr. A denied the charges. There was no mention of financial circumstances. He also refuted that he learned of Mr. B's company through the introduction of an existing gas company, and since the two companies were close friends, he would have been aware of his economic situation. Furthermore, it was argued that there may have been other reasons, such as sales performance, for concluding the contract despite knowing this. The first trial court found him not guilty. The first trial court said, "Given that the employee who signed the contract stated that he 'heard the entire story from the existing company,' it can be seen that he was well aware of the defendant's economic situation. It is also unconvincing that the victim would sign a contract while taking over the existing company's debt, believing only that 'the financial situation will improve soon'." The prosecution, which was dissatisfied with this, filed an appeal, but the second trial court upheld the original judgment. The appeal court said, "The existing company As payment delinquencies increased, he announced his intention to stop supplying gas and introduced the victim company, and it appears that he was significantly involved in the content and conclusion of the contract. Looking at this, it appears that this contract was concluded for the benefit of the existing company rather than because the defendant wanted it to be.” He added, “There is considerable scope to believe that the victim company signed the contract by taking the risk of not being paid for business performance based on trust in the existing company.” Representing Mr. A. Attorney Seongjin Yoon of Daeryun Law Firm explained, "The actual benefit that Mr. A gained through this contract was 16 million won in unpaid gas fees, and he did not lie about the specific conditions related to the gas contract. Rather, because it was the existing gas supplier that actually benefited from this contract, the court seems to have judged that it is difficult to say that Mr. A committed an act of deception."

The existing pharmaceutical industry is opposing warehouse-type pharmacies that promote distribution efficiency and cost savings, fearing misuse of medicines and ecosystem collapse. If these warehouse-type pharmacies attempt non-face-to-face sales, the impact is expected to be even greater. At this point, the Supreme Court ruling on non-face-to-face sales of pharmaceuticals was issued on the 12th of last month (Supreme Court ruling 2023Do9880). The ruling is a case dealing with a violation of the Pharmaceutical Affairs Act in the act of receiving reorders over the phone for diet herbal medicine sold after face-to-face interview and delivering it by courier. The appeals court in this case said that the above act did not violate Article 50, Paragraph 1 of the Pharmaceutical Affairs Act for the following reasons, saying, "The main part of the series of activities that make up the sale of medicines, such as ordering, manufacturing, delivery, and medication guidance, can be viewed in the same way as if they took place within a pharmacy." (Seoul Eastern District Court ruling 2021No1678). ① After conducting a face-to-face interview and selling the herbal medicine for the first time, he said over the phone that he wanted to take more of the herbal medicine, and the herbal medicine was resold through courier. ② The contents, composition, and price of the herbal medicine sold the first time and the herbal medicine sold again were all the same. ③ The buyer of the herbal medicine did not complain of any abnormal symptoms through the phone call, so the seller had to make an additional purchase. However, the Supreme Court ruled that Article 50, Paragraph 1 of the Pharmaceutical Affairs Act stipulates that 'pharmacy operators and drug dealers shall not sell drugs in places other than their pharmacies or stores,' and the reason for strictly restricting the places where drugs are sold is 'not only to prevent misuse and abuse of drugs through faithful medication guidance, etc., but also to block the possibility of deterioration and contamination of drugs during the storage and distribution process, and to make clear who is responsible in the event of a drug accident.' The decision was made to the effect that 'the series of actions of checking the physical changes after taking herbal medicine while facing the orderer, then receiving the order of herbal medicine suitable for the orderer's physical condition, dispensing it, and faithfully providing medication instructions were not properly carried out, and the seller did not directly deliver the herbal medicine to the orderer without any intermediate process. Therefore, all or major parts of the series of activities that constitute the sale of medicines, such as ordering, delivery, and medication guidance, cannot be considered to have been carried out within the pharmacy.' The above Supreme Court ruling is the warehouse pharmacy's next business. It shows that 'online ordering and courier delivery', which are considered models, are highly likely to be judged as a violation of Article 50, Paragraph 1 (Restrictions on Sales Places) of the Pharmaceutical Affairs Act at this point. However, non-face-to-face medical treatment and drug prescription systems are being activated in developed countries such as the United States, Japan, and the United Kingdom, and in Korea as well, in June 2022, it will be possible to purchase over-the-counter drugs through a remote control system after receiving consultation and medication guidance through a video call with a pharmacist through a monitor installed in front of a pharmacy. Considering that special regulatory provisions for verification purposes have been designated for vending machines, it seems likely that related regulations and precedents will change in Korea as well.[View full article] [Contribution] Legal issues regarding non-face-to-face drug ordering and courier delivery (link) 2026-05-13T15:13:55.475Z https://www.daeryunlaw.com/en/broadcast/5479 "He attended without missing the special prosecutor's investigation, was harmed by meeting with his subordinates... There is no reason for arrest." Former Marine Corps Commander Kim Gye-hwan, who has denied the so-called 'VIP (former President Yoon Seok-yeol) fury theory', stated that he is not subject to investigation under the Special Prosecutors' Act on perjury charges and that there is no reason for detention. Daeryun, a law firm representing former commander Kim, said in a statement on the 23rd, "Colonel Park Jeong-hoon's charges of perjury during his trial for mutiny, and the National Assembly's audit of government affairs. They claimed that the charges do not amount to the 'death case of Marine Chae Soo-geun', which is specified as the subject of investigation by the special prosecutor, or to illegal acts such as dereliction of duty and abuse of power, such as concealment and ignorance, related to it. Former Commander Kim said, "It is difficult to say that the crimes for which the warrant is requested, such as conspiracy to commit perjury and violation of the National Assembly Testimony Act, are clearly established. Former Commander Kim is already banned from leaving the country, and there is no fear of flight as he always attends the special prosecutor's investigation." He emphasized, "Even if his subordinates contact him first, he is avoiding meeting, and he is not even talking on the phone with the people involved in the case. In relation to perjury, all the evidence, including witness interrogation records and National Assembly meeting minutes, has already been secured, so there is no possibility of destroying evidence." Previously, on the 18th, the Special Prosecutor's Team for Marines in the Line of Duty reported that former Commander Kim was furious after receiving a report on the results of the Marine Corps death case from the National Assembly and the Central Regional Military Court. An arrest warrant was requested on the 18th, claiming that he committed perjury by making a statement denying the 'fury theory'. Former Commander Kim appeared as a witness in the first trial of the head of the Marine Corps Investigation Team (Colonel) Park Jeong-hoon in February of last year on charges of mutiny and other charges, and is accused of perjury by perjury by stating that he never conveyed former President Yoon's anger to Colonel Park. Former Commander Kim was also accused of perjury by Park Eun-jung's Fatherland Innovation Party during the National Assembly Legislation and Judiciary Committee's military court audit in October last year. The lawmaker was also charged with perjury under the National Assembly Testimony Evaluation Act when he answered "no" to the question, "Have you ever told Colonel Park Jeong-hoon about the VIP fury rumor?" Nam Se-jin, chief judge in charge of warrants at the Seoul Central District Court, interrogated the suspect before the arrest of former commander Kim on the 22nd and said, "Considering the suspect's career, residence and family relations, the suspect's appearance during the investigation process, and his attitude in statements, it is difficult to acknowledge the concern about running away." Considering the progress of the investigation, the current status of the suspect, etc., it is difficult to say that there is a risk of destruction of evidence beyond the exercise of the right to defense at this stage," the special prosecutor's team dismissed the request for an arrest warrant. Meanwhile, in a briefing on the day, the special prosecutor's team said, "For the first time, (former Commander Kim) admitted in court that he was aware of former President Yoon Seok-yeol's anger. He said that he had never heard of former President Yoon's anger after being informed of the results of the Marine Corps Investigation Team during Colonel Park Jung-hoon's trial or during a National Assembly inquiry. He said, "We believe it is necessary to further investigate other allegations, including changes in the statement. We plan to summon former commander Kim again soon."

The court overturned the sentence of fine for evading the first trial. The 3-2 Criminal Division of the Changwon District Court (Chief Judges Mi-yeon Kwon, Hyun-hee Jeong, and Taek-won Oh) on the 10th declared Mr. A, who was sent to trial on charges of evading compulsory execution, not guilty. The crime of evading compulsory execution means compulsory execution. It is a crime committed by concealing, damaging, or falsely transferring property for the purpose of avoiding the crime, or by injuring a creditor by incurring a false debt. According to Article 327 of the Criminal Act, he may be punished by imprisonment for up to 3 years or by a fine of up to 10 million won. Mr. A, who previously ran a firefighting facility management business, has been entrusted with the fire safety management service of a building since around July 2012. However, due to negligence in management, a large fire broke out, and a related damages lawsuit was filed, putting the company at risk of having to pay 400 million won. When Mr. A faced the threat of forcible execution of his property, he established a new company with his spouse as CEO. In addition, a contract was signed under a new name with some of the existing consignment management contract companies. The prosecution believed that Mr. A had concealed assets for the purpose of avoiding compulsory execution for damages, and charged him with evasion of compulsory execution. The first trial found Mr. A guilty on the charge and sentenced him to a fine. The first trial court said, “Mr. A concealed the assets of the existing company by falsely transferring business partners.” However, the appellate court found Mr. A not guilty. The appellate court ruled, “Considering various circumstances, such as the fact that the contract was canceled due to the deterioration of the company’s image after losing the related civil suit, and the fact that the existing company’s liability for damages was transferred to the new company, the submitted evidence alone cannot be considered to have proven that Mr. A had the purpose of avoiding compulsory execution.” Attorney Daeryun Koh Jeong-hang, a law firm representing Mr. A, said, “Mr. A terminated contracts with some customers and transferred them to a company under his spouse’s name to continue the business.” “It was for business reasons such as difficulty, that is, not for the purpose of avoiding debt,” he explained. “Accordingly, the liability for damages for the fire is also transferred to a new company, so the building that suffered the damage can receive a transfer execution order under Article 31 of the Civil Execution Act and take compulsory execution procedures.” He continued, “In the end, Mr. A’s actions of transferring the fire protection equipment business and transferring the business partner do not constitute false transfer or concealment of evasion of compulsory execution.” “We were able to get an acquittal by emphasizing that there was no risk of harming creditors,” he said.

According to the legal community on the 22nd, the Suwon District Court ruled on the 26th of last month that two members of a local housing association filed against the union and the developer in the Suwon District Court as the plaintiffs. The court ruled in favor. “The union and the developer worked together to recruit contractors through false advertisements, so this can be seen as a case of deception or mistake. Therefore, the contract can be canceled or invalidated,” he said. “Even if the contracting party is the association, it can be confirmed that the developer also acts as a party to the contract text, etc.” The sale deposit is paid in full or in part as a penalty when the contract is terminated, and in principle, cannot be refunded. However, the court ruled that the contract must be returned because the contract was entered into by mistake due to false and exaggerated advertising. Previously, in October of last year, two subscribers signed a preliminary tenant contract with Union A on the condition of paying a rental deposit of about 200 million won and a down payment of 55 million won. At the time, the union encouraged subscribers to sign up by explaining that a famous construction company brand was in charge of construction. For the down payment, an advance deposit method was proposed instead of the existing two-month deposit method. If you deposit in advance, part of the down payment is returned. However, the construction company advertised by the union later posted a warning notice on its website saying, “There has been no agreement or contract for construction related to the new rental housing project.” Subscribers who saw this submitted applications for contract termination, but the union postponed contract termination without disclosing the exact reason. Even though the developer was designated as the recipient of the down payment, he also avoided responsibility by claiming that he was “not an actual party to the contract.” In relation to this, attorney Kim Tae-hwan of Daeryun Law Firm, who represented the plaintiff, pointed out, “The defendants delayed the return of the down payment on the grounds that they were not parties to the contract, making it difficult to clearly hold them legally responsible and dispersing the contracting parties.” He continued, “The defendants recruited subscribers with advantageous sales conditions, but in reality, the construction company was not determined and the land for the site was distributed.” “The defendants had to return the entire down payment and litigation costs as they were responsible for restoring the contract to its original state due to withdrawal of subscription,” he explained.

In this trend, President Lee Jae-myung, during his candidacy, argued that the mandatory ESG disclosure period should be brought forward from 2026 to 2025. The goal is to 'improve corporate transparency in line with global standards and resolve Korea's chronic discount'. This is expected to have positive effects in the long term, such as attracting global investment, improving corporate trust, and expanding sustainable management infrastructure. However, there are growing concerns that early implementation in situations where institutional and practical preparations are insufficient may result in serious burdens and risks for companies. In particular, in the case of small and medium-sized companies, the resources and capabilities required to establish an ESG disclosure system are not sufficient, so there is a high possibility of trial and error and side effects. So, what specific risk factors can early mandatory ESG disclosure pose to companies? First of all, various legal disputes may arise due to incomplete disclosure. Producing highly reliable ESG data requires significant time and cost, including improving existing systems and receiving verification from external professional organizations. However, if disclosure is rushed without sufficient internal system maintenance or external verification amid pressure for early implementation, the accuracy and reliability of the data will inevitably decline. Such unverified information or exaggerated performance can become a catalyst for shareholder lawsuits targeting management directly in accordance with Article 125 of the Capital Markets Act (liability for compensation due to false statements, etc.). In particular, 'greenwashing', which is packaging non-environmentally friendly activities as if they are eco-friendly, is not limited to a simple reputation issue and is highly likely to lead to actual sanctions, such as fines from the Fair Trade Commission for violating the Labeling and Advertising Act. Such unverified disclosures can spark legal disputes for companies. Second, excessive response burden occurs due to ambiguity in evaluation standards and inconsistency in standards for each institution. Currently, domestic and international ESG evaluations are carried out in different ways by various organizations without internationally unified standards. For example, global rating agencies MSCI, S&P Global, and Korea ESG Standards (KCGS) apply different evaluation indicators and industry-specific weights. In fact, according to a report analyzing 55 of the top 100 domestic companies in 2021, the ESG ratings of each institution differed by an average of 1.4 levels. In other words, a company that is rated ‘excellent’ by one agency may be judged ‘poor’ by another agency. Such inconsistencies and ambiguities are rapidly increasing the company’s response costs. ESG reports, audit data, improvement plans, etc. must be duplicated to suit the needs of each organization, and consulting costs and manpower burden also increase. This is a huge risk, especially for small and medium-sized businesses with limited financial and human resources. Third, 'disconnection risk' may occur throughout the supply chain. ESG disclosure is difficult to complete solely through the efforts of individual companies. Various indicators such as carbon emissions, human rights, safety, and ethics require securing and managing data throughout the entire supply chain. In particular, carbon emissions data requires information from partner companies. However, many partners lack understanding and preparation for ESG, and their manpower and capacity to build systems are limited. As a result, partner companies that have difficulty responding to ESG face the risk of being excluded from the supply chain of large companies. This could soon lead to the 'risk of supply chain disruption'. The discussion surrounding the timing of mandatory ESG disclosure is a process for our society to move in a better direction. Whether in 2025 or 2027, this huge wave of change is bound to come. The important thing is not ‘when to start’ but to gather wisdom on ‘how to prepare well.’ ESG will become a stepping stone for our companies and capital markets to take a leap forward only when we minimize the side effects caused by hasty implementation and fully realize the purpose of the system through thorough preparation. We need to navigate this important transition wisely. Small and Medium Business Team[View full article] [Contribution] ‘Lee SG’ speeds up mandatory disclosure… What are the corporate risk factors? (Shortcut) 2026-05-09T13:17:32.017Z https://www.daeryunlaw.com/en/broadcast/5474 A presentation by lawyers from law firms such as Daeryun, Kim & Chang, and Yulchon As the U.S. administration led by President Trump implemented strong immigration policies such as restricting the entry of foreigners and cracking down on illegal immigrants, the domestic industry was also put on alert. Amid the strengthening of U.S. visa screening, an information session was held on July 21 at El Tower in Yangjae, Seoul to explore corporate response measures following the enactment of the so-called 'One Big Beautiful Bill Act (OBBBA)', which reflects President Trump's major national agendas such as tax cuts and strengthened crackdown on illegal immigration. At the 'U.S. OBBBA legal and visa response strategy briefing session' held by the Korea Battery Industry Association, lawyers from several law firms, including Kim & Chang Law Firm, Yulchon Law Firm, Daeryun Law Firm, and American law firm Covington & Burling, appeared as presenters and shared know-how on visa interviews and tax credit compliance. U.S. attorney Mia Kim introduces B1/B2 visa interview know-how. U.S. attorney Mia Kim of Daeryun Law Firm noted, "Recently, cases of visa approval delays or rejections in cases where there is a replaceable workforce in the U.S. or a history of repeated entry through ESTA and long-term stays are increasing," and introduced interview know-how for B1/B2 visas, which Korean companies frequently apply for but face difficulties among the major types of U.S. visas. The B1 non-immigrant visa is for short-term business purposes in the United States, and the B2 is for tourism, medical treatment, etc. Both visas are short-term visits and the length of stay is limited to 6 months. Attorney Kim explained, “You must prepare a specific and consistent business trip or research plan focusing on content directly connected to your professional field, such as career experience, business trip plan, research plan, and job relevance,” and “If the business trip is for the purpose, the specific schedule and work details must be revealed.” Foreign lawyer Koo Ja-min of Covington & Burling, foreign lawyer Hong Wook-seon of Yulchon Law Firm, and accountant Jeong Hyun explained the main contents of OBBB Law's tax reform in the battery sector. In addition, he said that eligibility requirements and compliance standards will be specified through the Ministry of Finance's enforcement regulations in accordance with the OBBB Act, and shared a tax credit compliance checklist, including eligibility review, construction start requirements, tax credit calculation and transfer, compliance obligations and sanctions related to Prohibited Foreign Entity (PFE), and contract and legal risk management. Foreign lawyers So-yeon Park, Yeon-woo Lee, and Eui-hyun Kim of Kim & Chang Law Firm presented the newly introduced definition of PFE, material assistance requirements, and corporate compliance matters for PFE to regulate supply chains in specific countries. If a PFE from a covered nation, such as China, North Korea, Russia, or Iran, invests, manufactures, and produces in the United States, it cannot receive tax credits such as the Advanced Manufacturing and Production Tax Credit (AMPC), Clean Power Investment Tax Credit (ITC), and Production Tax Credit (PTC).

There is an assessment that the independence and responsibility of the board of directors will be strengthened as the amendment to the Commercial Act includes the conversion of outside directors to independent directors and expansion of their size. In fact, the purpose is to lay the foundation for outside directors, who have been criticized as being the management's top movers, to raise their voice for checks and surveillance through the amendment. However, in the legal community, there are concerns that confusion may arise in the field because it is difficult to find a suitable person with independence and expertise or a company-specific strategy is not prepared, and it is pointed out that specific measures must be prepared to secure actual independence beyond name changes. The commercial law amendment bill recently passed at the cabinet meeting removes the existing outside directors. It includes changes to the name of independent directors and expansion of the mandatory appointment ratio from one-fourth to one-third of the total number of directors. An independent director is defined as 'a director who, as an outside director, performs functions independent of internal directors, executive officers, and business execution directives.' Accordingly, it is expected that independent directors will be required to have a higher degree of independence than existing outside directors. Changes in the existing management environment, which was greatly influenced by management, are also expected. Attorney Seok-Hyeon Yoo of the law firm Mission said, "It will be possible to increase the check on the company's management." Seung-Gyu Byeon, a lawyer at the law firm Seum, said, "In particular, in line with the main content of the Commercial Act Amendment Bill, which requires directors to directly bear a duty of loyalty to shareholders, when independent directors make decisions for major shareholders, the possibility of making decisions that take into account the interests of all shareholders will increase, considering the possibility of being sued by minority shareholders even if it goes against the interests of major shareholders." I looked ahead. It is necessary to secure candidates for independent directors and prepare customized strategies for each company. However, it may be difficult to achieve the practical effects of the amendment simply by changing the name to independent directors and expanding the size. First, there is the problem of finding appropriate independent director candidates. Kim Ji-ho, an attorney at Lin Law Firm (Limited), said, “If several companies increase the number of independent directors at once to meet the one-third appointment ratio requirement, it may become difficult to find suitable people who meet the qualifications for the relevant industry, and as the responsibilities of directors are strengthened, there is a possibility that candidates may avoid independent director positions.” To prevent this situation, a system for discovering and managing independent director candidates must be systematized. Attorney Yoo explained, “We need to prepare in advance for the appointment of new independent directors to prevent a situation where there is a shortage of candidates right before implementation.” Dong-Han Lim, a lawyer at Dongin Law Firm, emphasized, "Efforts must be made to increase the reliability of the selection of independent directors through an objective and professional director recommendation process and to establish an efficient decision-making system." Jong-Soo Shin, a lawyer at Daeryun Law Firm, said, "The selection process and qualification requirements must be strengthened to ensure the actual independence of independent directors." He added, "In line with the trend of strengthening requirements for independent directors, the candidate recommendation committee system must be practically operated and the independence verification process must be objective." “I do it,” he said. In particular, he advised receiving candidate recommendations through multiple channels. Attorney Kim said, “There is a need to actively consider recommendations from external experts and shareholders,” and added, “In the case of independent directors recommended and appointed through various channels, it is expected that they will contribute to securing independence.” In addition, a careful approach is needed depending on the circumstances of each company. Attorney Shin said, "The impact of the amendment to the Commercial Act will vary depending on each company, whether it is a listed or large-scale listed company, the distribution of shareholders' shareholding, the composition of the existing board of directors and outside directors, and transactions with affiliated companies with different shareholdings of controlling shareholders." He added, "The amendments must be reviewed in detail and responded to according to the company's situation." Attorney Byun also said, "As the effect of changing the name of an outside director of a listed company to an independent director is not explicitly and specifically set, what effect does this amendment to the Commercial Act have on actual corporate management? “We need to look at the accumulation of practice and precedents and the revision of the Enforcement Decree of the Commercial Act to see whether it will have an impact,” he said. If such supplementation is made, it is expected to ultimately have a positive impact on the capital market. Attorney Lim pointed out, "The change to the independent director system will send a positive signal to global investors about the improvement of the governance structure of Korean companies and will have a positive impact on resolving the chronic problem of Korea discounts." Attorney Kim said, "By increasing trust in companies externally and introducing the concept of independent directors, which is emphasized in the corporate governance structure of developed countries, it can contribute to strengthening the international competitiveness of Korean companies and increasing the share of foreign institutional investors in Korea."

According to the legal community on the 21st, the 2nd criminal division of the Wonju Branch of the Chuncheon District Court sentenced Mr. A, who was sent to trial on charges of attempted fraud and forgery of private documents, to 1 year and 6 months in prison on the 25th of last month. Mr. A borrowed 305 million won in the name of business funds from Mr. B, a former co-worker, in 2017 and then used it. Mr. A submitted a forged IOU to the court and claimed that the debt did not exist, but it was not accepted. Accordingly, Mr. B filed a complaint, claiming that Mr. A had forged supporting documents and used them fraudulently. At the trial, Mr. A argued that "the indictment was filed after the statute of limitations had expired" on charges such as forgery of private documents and that "an acquittal should be pronounced." However, the court did not consider the circumstances of the crime and The court sentenced Mr. A to prison, saying that the nature of the crime was not good considering the method. The court stated the reason for sentencing, saying, "The defendant falsified the loan certificate to avoid a large debt in a civil lawsuit and submitted it as evidence, thereby hindering the proper exercise of judicial power. Among fraud crimes, litigation fraud is an aggravating factor in sentencing." Attorney B's legal representative, Daeryun Gil Se-cheol, said, "Mr. A gave money to Mr. B. “Not only did they not repay, but they submitted false information in a civil lawsuit that had been going on for about four years, wasting unnecessary time and money.” Shin Min-ji (sourminjee@ikbc.co.kr)[View full article] A man in his 50s who did not repay money and even forged an IOU... sentenced to 1 year and 6 months in prison by law (link) 2026-05-04T12:39:17.589Z https://www.daeryunlaw.com/en/broadcast/5471 A man in his 50s who was sent on charges of entering a unisex restroom and peeping into the women's compartment was acquitted. According to the legal community on the 21st, the Chuncheon District Prosecutor's Office decided not to indict Mr. A, who was sent on charges of violating the Special Act on the Punishment of Sexual Crimes (Invading Public Places for Sexual Purposes) on the 26th of last month due to insufficient evidence. In December of last year, Mr. A peeped at Mr. was charged with Mr. A was arrested as a red-light criminal and handed over to the prosecution with a recommendation for indictment. Mr. A denied the charges. He claimed that he was drunk at the time and that he only used the public restroom because he was not feeling well. Regarding the circumstances of looking into the women's compartment, he said, "While I was dozing in the bathroom, I heard the door to the next compartment open, and as I was about to go out, my legs went numb and I collapsed," and claimed, "At that time, I just happened to bump into Mr. B, and there was no sexual purpose." The prosecution acknowledged that Mr. A tried to look in front of the women's compartment, but it was difficult to conclude that this act alone was intended to satisfy his sexual desires from the time he entered the bathroom. As a result of checking the CCTV, it was confirmed that Mr. A stayed in the bathroom for about 40 minutes, which was judged to be consistent with Mr. A's claim that he fell asleep in the bathroom. The prosecution believed that there was no clear evidence to admit the charges, considering that other customers at the bar also used the restroom. Attorney Jae-young Yoo of Daeryun Law Firm, who represented Mr. A, said, “For a charge related to trespassing into a public place for sexual purposes to be established, the requirements must be met, such as satisfaction of sexual desire, a place for multiple use, and failure to comply with a request to vacate.

In this regard, the author 2025year 6The overall rebate regulation was covered in a monthly article in the Pharmaceutical Newspaper.. This time for practitioners 2015Summary of major cases related to rebates from 2008 to the recent past., Let’s take a look at the implications.. 1. 2015year Jhospital incident - Rebate using direct wholesale JThe hospital incident involved the hospital chairman, etc. 46The name is so-called ‘Direct wholesale’While operating 2011since 2015Pharmaceutical companies by year 18Rebate from anywhere 10This is a case where billions of won were received.. These are ‘Direct wholesale’and operates a pharmaceutical company and 'unit price contract'I received a rebate by signing a contract and pocketing the difference in drug price discount.. Meanwhile, in this case, clues to the investigation(Background on how the investigation began)go ‘the former’(Hospital direct wholesaler)It is unique in that it was reported by a pharmaceutical company employee who could not endure the abuse of power.. Another unusual thing is that the criminal and administrative measures were different.. The prosecution ‘The rebate is a small amount or the salesperson's personal deviant behavior’The pharmaceutical company was not indicted, including deferred prosecution, on the grounds that it appeared to be. However, this was also a controversial case as the Ministry of Food and Drug Safety announced that it would make its own judgment and take administrative action against some pharmaceutical companies.. 2. 2016year Nfour incident - Variant rebate using academic journals Nlive 2011since 2016Until 2018, we used medical journals and academic journals to hold round-table meetings in the name of advertising expenses and provide medicines to doctors. 25He was indicted on charges of providing bribes worth hundreds of millions of won.. The investigation into this case began with the revelation of an employee of a medical magazine., The investigation began in earnest with the Seoul Western District Prosecutors' Office conducting a search and seizure operation.. The prosecution ‘Roundtable discussions and academic journal production’In the end 'Variant Rebate' He claimed that, At the trial, controversy continued over whether there was organized collusion and recognition of illegality.. What is noteworthy about this case is that relatively heavy sentences were sentenced to working-level officials and professional academic journals., NThe company executives were declared not guilty and exempted.. Prosecutors claimed it was an organized kickback case at the company level, but, The court is a working group(PM) It was judged that there was insufficient evidence that executives or department heads were specifically reported to or were involved in the act.. In addition, some kickback activities were exempted as the statute of limitations had expired., He acknowledged that there was a possibility that the defendants were not aware of the illegality.. In particular, in the field of rare diseases and anticancer drugs, the need for academic events to improve disease awareness was also taken into consideration.. 3. 2018year ‘5dog pharmaceutical company’ case - Multi-agency joint investigation 2018year 9In January, the Board of Audit and Inspection conducted its own audit of the results of the integrated corporate and individual investigation by the Seoul Regional Tax Office., 5Total number of pharmaceutical companies 374After confirming the suspicion of providing monetary and in-kind kickbacks worth hundreds of millions of won to doctors and pharmacists., Ministry of Food and Drug Safety(Ministry of Food and Drug Safety)The need for investigation was notified to. Accordingly, the Central Investigation Team under the Ministry of Food and Drug Safety(Joongjodan)this 2018year 12month DThe investigation began in earnest with a search and seizure of the company's headquarters.. This incident ‘National Tax Service tax investigation → Board of Audit and Inspection Auditor → Ministry of Food and Drug Safety investigation → Sent to prosecution’It is characteristic in that it is a case of rebate detection linked to multiple institutions leading to. In addition, the Board of Audit and Inspection analyzes tax audit results to detect kickback suspicions and, It is noteworthy that the investigation was initiated after notification to the relevant agencies.. 4. 2024year Kpharmaceutical, 2025year DRecent pharmaceutical incidents 2024years and 2025There was also a rebate-related incident in 2012.. However, in both cases, the company denies the charges., As the facts have not been confirmed, I do not think it is appropriate to make specific comments.. Therefore, we would like to replace the above incidents with other press releases.. 5. 2024year medical device company GCompany case medical device company Glive 2016since 2022Drug-eluting stents for coronary arteries by(DES) Nationwide to expand sales 54gun in dog hospital 37Clinical research expenses worth billions of won, Academic activity fees, He was caught by the Fair Trade Commission on charges of providing advertising expenses..Gthanks DES Sales are 2016year 3From 100 million won 2022year 49In billions of won 16increased by more than twofold, Of these 90% It was confirmed that the above incident occurred at a hospital that had a rebate agreement.. The Fair Trade Commission 2024year GWith a correction order to Sasa 2100 million 8,700A fine of 10,000 won was imposed.. It is well known that some rebate practices exist in the medical device industry., Typically, its scale was relatively small compared to pharmaceutical companies.. However, in this case, despite being a medical device company, the rebate amount was relatively large., It is noteworthy that sanctions were imposed by the Fair Trade Commission, not by an investigative agency.. 5. Implications There were other big and small rebate incidents, but we ask for your understanding that we cannot tell you all about them due to space limitations.. If I get the chance, I will tell you more about the cases.. one side, If we consider the series of events, the following flow can be captured.. first, clues to investigation(Reasons for starting an investigation)As ‘whistle blowing’This is still the most.second, However, the clues in the above investigation are becoming more diverse..third, Multi-agency cooperation is becoming routine.fourth, In the future, HIRA's prescription data will be analyzed, It is expected that various investigative techniques will be used, including the use of tax investigation data..fifth, As I said in the previous article,, Government regulations continue to be strengthened. And it is expected that rebate regulations will continue to be strengthened in the future.. Summarizing the above, in the future ‘compliance’ The importance is bound to continue to grow., The industry also needs to prepare for this.. on the other hand, If you look closely at the cases above, the number of cases where the charges were acquitted is not less than you might think.. Therefore, if you are being unfairly misunderstood about rebates,, I would also like to tell you that there is an opportunity to resolve these difficulties if sufficient explanation is provided during the future investigation process..

'Trade secret infringement' Am I recognized?"It's not illegal" The Supreme Court ruled that the parties must clarify their intentions from the start of the contract. Companies often develop technologies jointly with other companies.. A large company 1·2A representative example is developing production technology for specific parts to be delivered together with car suppliers.. Suppliers maintain amicable relationships with large corporations until technology development is completed and expect to share in profits after delivery.. However, in reality, unexpected problems always arise..By the time development was completed 1tea supplier 2Stop collaborating with tea suppliers and operate independently., or new 2When making final delivery to a large company together with a car supplier, on the other way 2tea supplier 1An example is the case of skipping the car supplier and making the final delivery directly to a large company.. Although significant costs and efforts were invested in technology development,, For companies that are no longer able to produce and sell products, their technology has been stolen..At this time, the victim company sues the offending company. 'Trade secret infringement lawsuit'Can I win if I file a case?? Shouldn’t they at least charge a fee for using the technology?? From the technician's point of view, it is natural to be protected. 'my skills'It was stolen., Can I be protected from the court?? Is it possible to use it unilaterally without the consent of the other party? Which company owns a trade secret jointly developed by two or more companies?? What is the scope of each co-developer's use?? Although the technology belongs jointly to the developers,, In principle, joint developers unless there is a separate agreement 1The court's ruling is that developers can freely use all of the technology without the consent of other developers.(supreme court 2024. 11. 20. sentence 2021all278931, 278948).Let’s substitute it into the above example.. of large corporations 1·2The car supplier worked together to develop trade secret technology and parts., The conclusion is that even if one party betrays the other party and independently produces the relevant parts using trade secrets and then delivers them to a large company, it is not a trade secret infringement.. This is an incomprehensible ruling from the perspective of researchers and developers.. Why did the court make this decision?. At first glance, it is a natural judgment that jointly developed results are jointly owned.. The problem is 'joint attribution'this 'Available range for each developer'The point is that it is not directly related to. Let's take an object as an example.. civil law257Dozing off 'joint ownership'shape again 'share', 'joint oil' and 'total oil'Distinguish by. 'movable property and movable property coincide'If it becomes a composite product 'When it is impossible to distinguish between master and servant of matching movables'In 'share a composite'It is stipulated that. thus Aand BWhen a person creates a composite by combining the items they each had with each other., According to the above regulations, synthetic Aand Bbecomes a share of. Reasons why it is difficult to apply the logic of civil law and patent law Aand BThe provisions of the Civil Code on sharing(civil law262Article to Article270article)Unless there are other circumstances,, Each person can use and profit from the entire composite in proportion to their share.. Aand BIf each person has a half interest in the composite Aand BThis means that you can use and profit from it at half the rate..If we apply this civil law logic to trade secrets, the story is different.. In case of objects AWhile using and profiting Bcannot be used and profited at the same time, Because technology is different.. technology AWhile using Bcan also be used at the same time. Aand BIf civil law sharing regulations are applied to technology shared by Aand BIt must be divided according to the shares held., This conclusion is somewhat unnatural..Regarding this issue 'shared patent'You can also refer to how to use. Our patent law is99Preparation3In port 'If the patent right is jointly owned, each co-owner may implement the patented invention on his/her own without obtaining the consent of the other co-owners, except in cases where it is specifically agreed upon in a contract.'It is stipulated that. When researchers keep techniques secret 'trade secret'Become this, If this is disclosed and registered as property rights, 'patent(or utility model)technology'Therefore, the objects of trade secret technology and patented technology are similar in many ways.. Therefore, the two can be understood in the same context.. If so, the jointly developed technology 'share'In this case, it can be concluded that each sharer can freely use the technology without the consent of other sharers.. However, the above ruling "Share jointly developed research results"It is worth noting again that it was not explicitly determined that. The court is not shared 'joint attribution'There is an intention in using the expression.. therefore 'joint attribution'From the expression "Our court considers joint research and development results to be shared., It was determined that each sharer could use the results at will by applying the sharing provisions of the Patent Act."And you can't jump to conclusions.. It is my personal opinion, but our patent law and patent rights sharing regulations are a reference to Japan's patent law., The problem is that Japanese civil law is different from our civil law. 'joint ownership'the form of 'share', 'joint oil' and 'total oil'The point is that it is not divided by. Ultimately, our patent law 'patent sharing' The provisions of our civil law 'share' Mechanical substitution of regulations is an issue that requires further consideration.. 'protect interests'-'infringement regulation' The Supreme Court sees it differently. Then, for what reason does the court "Co-developers can freely use co-owned technology without the consent of other developers."Did you decide that? The court does not protect the rights holders 'agent(infringer) regulation'The above problem was judged from the perspective of. This is what the Constitutional Court said in the past "The Unfair Competition Prevention Act is well known., in other words, Since the goal is to individually and specifically regulate activities that may cause confusion with widely known signs, the problem is limiting the scope of regulation rather than the scope of protection."(Constitutional Court2001. 9. 27. Heonba77 reference)It can be understood in the same context as the judgment that.Looking at the previous Supreme Court ruling, "Even in the case where two people jointly hold a trade secret, if any of the holders has an obligation to keep the trade secret as a secret to other holders due to contractual relationships, etc., uses or discloses the trade secret for the purpose of obtaining unfair profits or causing damage to the other holders, (la)This may constitute an act of infringement of trade secrets.. (omission) How to use the technical information in this case, which is a trade secret jointly held by the plaintiff and the defendant, Since there is no separate agreement regarding restrictions on use, etc., It cannot be said that the defendant must use the technical information in this case only to manufacture products supplied to the plaintiff or that it has an obligation to use it with the plaintiff's consent."(above Supreme Court decision)and said. Ultimately, the court 'Whose Rights Should Be Protected??'not 'Is the behavior in question subject to regulation??'It was decided that.About the above ruling "Aren't protecting the interests of rights holders and regulating the actions of infringers ultimately the same thing??"You can think. However, in commonly used joint research and development agreements, "Share research results"And it is often written simply., Considering that there are quite a few cases, it is judged to be very important to protect the rights holder's interests and regulate the infringer's actions.. Based on what was explained above, the contract "The results of joint development are shared"If this is written or not written at all, it is very likely that legal disputes unintentional by the developer will arise in the future.. "Shared development technology is shared"By signing a contract that states "Jointly developed technology can be freely used by the other party without permission."There are probably not many researchers and developers who are aware that they are agreeing with the contents of.In order to use and profit from the results in accordance with the intent at the time of first entering into a joint development contract, a clear contract that meets the parties' wishes must be established first.. The assistance of legal experts is also essential to prevent disputes from occurring.. [View full article] “It’s a technology we created together…” Is betrayal legal?

One of the hottest topics in the legal industry this year is ‘Daeryun's growth’It seems like. This is because it is one of the few law firms that has grown rapidly in the current legal market where survival is a concern., past 9How do you evaluate Daeryun’s progress over the years??CEO Kook-il Kim(Kim below) : From the beginning of its establishment, Daeryun ‘differentiation strategy’put forward. The domestic legal market has been operated in a closed structure for a long time.. First of all, visiting the law firm itself was not easy.. Especially for rural residents, I had to go directly to Seoul to use the services of a large law firm.. It was also difficult to obtain information surrounding the legal services provided by law firms.. Daeryun wanted to destroy all of this.. The establishment of branch offices throughout the country was also aimed at reaching customers first..The customer service center was also created with a similar purpose.. We want to improve everything without missing the stories of customers who actually used Daeryun.. Like this only ‘consumer’I think there has been a good response because we have been providing legal services with only one eye on it..Q. Looking at the newly established communication channel,, Here are some interesting points. Literally a lawyer and a client, I guess this means creating a group communication room between the employees in charge, right??seaweed : Yes. Daeryun was the first large law firm to actively communicate with clients by establishing a separate customer satisfaction center and customer management team.. Collect all customer feedback that occurs during the service process, Based on this, it was a way to find ways to improve service..nevertheless, I thought there might be some clients who feel inadequate.. To communicate with lawyers, you have to make a phone call., If lawyers are overworked, they may unintentionally lose contact with their clients..The newly created online communication program is based on online messenger and, Dedicated lawyers, staff, and clients participate simultaneously for each case.. You can also check the progress of the incident in real time., You can also look into related document files.. By establishing a communication channel, anyone can receive quality legal services on a regular basis if they wish.. It is expected that a faster response will be possible even in emergency situations..Q. ‘lawyer liability system’Please explain in detail.seaweed : actually ‘lawyer liability system’This is a guideline established from the beginning of Daeryun’s establishment.. Depending on the level of difficulty, the case can be divided into independent and collegial divisions., Specialized group, If allocated to a special department, etc., The existing method was for members of the department to work together as a team under the direction of the person in charge to handle the case..However, the situation has recently changed as the number of clients entrusting their cases to Daeryun has increased explosively.. This is because it has become realistically difficult for high-ranking management lawyers, such as representative lawyers, to directly manage all cases.. As clients’ expectations are rising,, The quality of legal services had to be further improved.. To achieve this, it was necessary to refine the system once again., Responsibility management has been strengthened.. Writing and Attending Trial, The scope of duties and responsibilities surrounding the overall activities required to carry out the case, including communication with the client, has been clarified..Judgment/Inspection, Lawyers with experience such as police officers are no exception.. It is usually assumed that lawyers with this experience will not practice.. In Daeryun, the lawyer is in charge of the actual writing process and the trial process..Q. What is the value that Daeryun ultimately pursues??seaweed : Competition alone can no longer support healthy market growth.. In the end, aren’t legal services solving people’s problems?. Therefore, the consumer must be the center..Lawyers must also have a public mission.. The same goes for law firms.. This is especially true for larger law firms.. There is a need to jointly consider ways to improve the quality of legal services and develop the domestic legal market..Daeryun has been studying the law firm systems of advanced countries such as the United States for a long time and applying them to the domestic market.. These efforts will continue in the future. Providing quality legal services to consumers, We will do our best to develop the domestic legal market..[Reporter Son Dong-wook of Lawleader twson@lawleader.co.kr] [View full article] Daeryun launches online communication program between lawyers and clients... “We will communicate flawlessly” (Shortcut) 2026-05-13T12:29:40.889Z https://www.daeryunlaw.com/en/broadcast/5467 Strengthening communication with working-level staff in charge of cases, 'responsibility-centered' law firm operation system in full swing Daeryun "Customer-centered communication and responsibility core values" Focus on building an advanced legal service model Daeryun Law Firm announced that it will strengthen customer service by launching an online communication program that allows clients and lawyers to communicate directly. Daeryun recently launched an online communication program and began work on opening a communication room for each case received by the firm from the beginning of this month. The communication room, which is based on an online messenger, is attended by a team of lawyers and staff in charge of each case. Previously, in order to communicate with the lawyer, the client had to call the lawyer directly or call the team in charge if the lawyer was unable to answer the phone due to a trial, meeting, or consultation. However, the newly released online communication program allows real-time Q&A as well as checking case-related documents. It is expected that a quick response will be possible even in emergency situations. Daeryun's policy is to break physical limitations and increase customer trust through these communication channels. Previously, Daeryun has prepared various systems to increase customer convenience, such as installing and operating a customer satisfaction center. A Daeryun official said, "If the existing customer satisfaction center was a method of constantly communicating customer inconveniences that may occur during the service provision process and regularly receiving and listening to requests, satisfaction, and improvements from customers, with the launch of this online communication program, it can be conveniently used in real time, anytime, anywhere. “We are now able to communicate,” he said. Daeryun is also accelerating the maintenance of its internal system, including strengthening the ‘lawyer responsibility system.’ The existing lawyer responsibility system was operated in a way that, depending on the difficulty of the case, assigned to a single department, settlement department, specialized group, or special department, the members of each department worked as a team under the direction of the director to handle the case. While strengthening the lawyer responsibility system, the scope of duties and responsibilities surrounding overall activities necessary for case performance, such as writing, attending trial, and communicating with clients, were made clearer. This is the result of considering the situation in which the number of cases has increased significantly recently, making it practically impossible for high-ranking management lawyers, such as representative lawyers, to manage all cases. In order to provide higher quality legal services than before, opinions were raised that the system needed to be strengthened, so it was decided to strengthen responsibility management. Daeryun CEO Kim Kuk-il said, “In the case of the lawyer responsibility system, it is actually a culture that has been implemented since the beginning of the corporation.” “As it is a sensitive field that deals with life and rights, securing trust in the service is more important than anything else,” he said, adding, “We will continue to improve the system to increase customer convenience and satisfaction and create an advanced legal service model.” Busan reporter Jeong Cheol-wook[View full article] Seoul Shinmun - Daeryun Law Firm innovates legal services on two axes: ‘Strengthening Communication and Responsibility’ (Click here) Sports Seoul - Daeryun Law Firm begins to innovate legal services on the two axes of ‘strengthening communication and responsibility’ (Click here) Jose Ilbo - Daeryun Law Firm innovates legal services on the two axes of ‘strengthening communication and responsibility’ (link) Tax and Finance News - Daeryun, client and lawyer communicate frequently...

The seller's burden ratio for the discount amount is too high, They are raising their voices saying that discount coupons are often issued without accurate prior knowledge of sellers, and that an investigation is needed to determine if there are any problems with regulations or procedures.. Avery sellers on Naver Cafe, Summarizing the content of multiple posts posted on social media such as Instagram, these are the proportion of the seller's burden of the product discount amount resulting from the issuance of discount coupons by the platform.(of selling price 5%)They are raising the issue that this is too high..

Among the core contents of the commercial law amendment, the so-called '3% rule', which limits the influence of major shareholders when appointing and dismissing audit committee members, is scheduled to go into effect in July next year. The 3% rule contains the intention to reduce the influence of major shareholders and strengthen the monitoring function of management. The legal community seems to agree with this purpose, but there are concerns that companies will inevitably need to prepare all-round countermeasures, from securing the expertise of audit committee members to securing favorable shares to defend management rights. According to the legal community on the 17th, the 3% rule for audit committee members (Article 542-12 of the Commercial Act) is expected to play a positive role in improving corporate governance. Previously, when electing and dismissing audit committee members who are outside directors, the 'individual 3% rule' was applied, which allowed voting rights of 3% each without adding the stocks held by the largest shareholder and the stocks owned by specially related persons, and when electing and dismissing audit committee members who were inside directors, the 'combined 3% rule' was reflected, which recognizes voting rights of up to 3% in total. However, in the revised bill, regardless of whether inside or outside directors, the largest shareholder and specially related persons are allowed to exercise voting rights of up to 3%. Voting rights were combined and unified at 3%. It has become difficult to appoint audit committee members that suit the tastes of controlling shareholders. Seunggyu Byun, an attorney at law firm Seum, explained, “The influence of major shareholders on the audit committee is expected to weaken and the supervisory function of the audit committee will be strengthened.” Attorney Lim Dong-han of Dongin Law Firm said, "It will contribute to establishing a sound governance structure by strengthening the objective monitoring function of the audit committee. It is expected to play a positive role in protecting shareholder rights and interests by increasing the possibility of appointing audit committee candidates recommended by minority shareholders." Shin Jong-su, attorney at Daeryun Law Firm, said, "It will be able to supplement accounting transparency and internal checks." There is a need to secure the expertise of audit committee members and transparent disclosure of the decision-making process. However, it is pointed out that it may be difficult to secure appropriate audit committee members as the exercise of voting rights by the largest shareholder is restricted. Kim Ji-ho, a lawyer at Lin Law Firm (Lihan), said, "There is a concern that a person recommended by a minority shareholder will be appointed as an audit committee member even if he or she lacks expertise in the relevant industry or audit work," and added, "In particular, there is a possibility that sensitive internal information shared with the board of directors may be leaked to the outside." In addition, Attorney Shin, who mentioned the possibility of failing to meet the quorum when electing or dismissing audit members due to the expanded application of the 3% rule, pointed out that "confusion is expected in practice." In addition, Attorney Lim said, "The decision-making process of the audit committee may become more complicated and the time required for this may increase excessively." He added, "In addition, there is a risk that hostile M&A forces such as foreign private equity funds or activist funds will take over the audit committee to avoid the 3% rule." “It has grown,” he pointed out. As many changes are expected in the business environment of companies, it is necessary to review countermeasures along with revising the Articles of Incorporation to reflect the amendments. First, secure a pool of audit committee candidates and strengthen their capabilities. Attorney Lim emphasized, "We need to discover and secure qualified candidates in advance and prepare training programs to develop their abilities." Attorney Kim said, "It is important to secure the expertise of audit committee members by strengthening the qualifications for audit committee members in the Articles of Incorporation," and added, "We must strive to appoint people with expertise and a willingness to protect corporate value by strengthening shareholder communication and expanding corporate information session (IR) activities." He added that there is a need to prevent concerns from minority shareholders by transparently disclosing information on the audit committee appointment process and decision-making. Among the commonly proposed countermeasures, there was also mention of the need to increase communication with friendly shareholders to protect the management rights of the largest shareholder. Attorney Yoo Seok-hyeon of the law firm Mission said, “The largest shareholder must make more efforts to communicate and secure power of attorney with friendly shareholders who are not related parties at a legal level.” Attorney Shin said, "In case the majority shareholder is unable to clearly appoint an audit committee member due to the 3% rule, we must seek ways to secure friendly shares and cooperate with minority shareholders, and companies with a distributed governance structure must also prepare a response strategy to proxy competition in advance."

On the 13th of last month, the Seoul Southern District Court ruled in favor of the plaintiff in a lawsuit filed by A, a man in his 30s, against his acquaintance B on the 13th, saying, "The defendant should pay the plaintiff about 1.483 billion won and delay damages for the same." In 2022, a total of 1.18 billion won was given to Mr. B for cryptocurrency investment and fund lending. However, contrary to his original promise to guarantee principal, Mr. B repeatedly postponed repayment. Afterwards, Mr. B wrote an additional memorandum of performance and agreement for Mr. A, but the repayment was never made. Accordingly, Mr. A filed a criminal complaint against Mr. B and also filed a civil suit. Mr. B claimed that he was only an intermediate agent. At the same time, he emphasized that Mr. A violated the ‘duty of cooperation’ in the agreement by suing him for violating the Special Police Act. If repayment was not made, it was decided to set up a mortgage of 1.5 billion won to Mr. A using the Cambodian land owned by Mr. B as collateral, but the intention was that even this had become impossible due to the criminal complaint. On the other hand, the court accepted most of Mr. A's claims. The court explained, "There is no basis to believe that repayment was delayed due to the plaintiff's complaint, and since the defendant clearly stated in the agreement that he would take responsibility directly, we cannot accept the claim that he was a simple introducer." However, the portion of the agreed interest exceeding 20% per annum, the legal maximum interest rate, was deemed invalid and ruled to pay approximately KRW 1.483 billion excluding this amount. Kim Won-sang, a lawyer at Daeryun Law Firm who served as Mr. A's legal representative, said, “The defendant spoke as if the plaintiff's obligation to cooperate was a prerequisite for a refund, but he actively clarified that this was an argument that changed the relationship over time.” He added, “It was not a verbal promise, but a document containing the specific amount and intention to repay, which was the defendant's “It was used as conclusive evidence to prove payment obligations, leading to good results,” he said.

Court says “Handwritten signature, responsibility is clear” (Shortcut) 2026-05-12T12:13:51.328Z https://www.daeryunlaw.com/en/broadcast/5457 Workers at childcare and welfare facilities who have to care for a large number of children in one space face dilemmas every day. This is because actions taken to protect a large number of children may be seen as ‘emotional abuse’ against a specific child. In particular, the most embarrassing moment is when a child needs ‘discipline’. Due to the nature of group living, one child's problematic behavior can have a significant impact on other children, so appropriate restraint is essential. Sometimes it is necessary to separate children from other children. The problem is that such physical restraint and separation can be considered another form of child abuse. A recent case I took on also began in this dilemmatic situation. Client A was a veteran childcare worker who had worked at a child welfare facility for several years. At the facility where Mr. A was working, group B, a child suffering from severe intellectual disability and ADHD, was living with him. The problem was that Group B continued to engage in unexpected behavior, such as yelling or throwing objects. On the day of the incident, Group B also acted threateningly towards other children, so the client briefly separated Group B into a separate space to minimize damage. However, due to this action, Mr. A became a suspect of child abuse. According to Article 17, Paragraph 5 of the Child Welfare Act, no one may commit an act of emotional abuse that harms a child's mental health and development. If you violate this, you may be subject to ‘imprisonment of up to 5 years or a fine of up to 50 million won.’ In particular, the situation becomes more serious when workers at childcare facilities, rather than ordinary people, are involved in related charges. The charge applied is changed to ‘violation of the Special Act on the Punishment of Child Abuse Crimes, etc.’, and the possibility of aggravated punishment is bound to increase. The defense team, including the author, focused on proving that Mr. A’s actions were not ‘abuse’ intended to harm the child, but were ‘legitimate disciplinary and protective measures’ to protect all other children. Simply looking at the fact that the child was separated could be misleading, so we tried to convincingly explain the motive and purpose of the act, as well as the urgent situation at the time. First of all, we made it clear that Mr. A's actions were aimed at ‘protecting’ other children from violent situations. In addition, it was true that Group B was separated for nearly 30 minutes, but the door was not locked, and it was argued that this was the minimum amount of physical restraint to ensure the safety of other children at the time. In addition, Group B also emphasized that unilateral abuse did not occur, based on the fact that he usually showed a strong bond with the client. The investigative agency also accepted this claim and was able to close the case with a non-indictment. As in the case above, measures for everyone can be seen as abuse to one child. If you face a legal problem with a similar dilemma, you must prepare objective evidence and legal arguments to prove that your actions were a legitimate protective measure. It is most important to systematically explain the legitimate purpose and background of one's actions with the help of a legal expert from the early stage.[View full article] Laurider - Legal dilemma of emotional child abuse...The main issues according to the lawyer are (Go to) Korea Law Daily - Emotional child abuse, legal dilemma of discipline and separation measures...

The principal contractor, who was reported by a subcontractor for habitual abuse of power and non-payment, filed a retaliation lawsuit and claimed ownership of the subcontractor, but it was not accepted. On the 20th of last month, the Seoul Southern District Court ruled that Company A, an electronic communication device seller, filed a lawsuit against Company B, a mechanical parts manufacturing subcontractor, in the retained earnings lawsuit. The plaintiff's claim was dismissed in the claim lawsuit. Retained earnings refer to surplus based on profits earned from corporate business activities. Company A signed a parts manufacturing contract with Company B in 2008 and continued the transaction for several years. Later, in 2016, Company A signed an exclusive contract with Company B due to business expansion. Accordingly, Company A received a certain fee from Company B and provided the necessary equipment for parts production. Company B reorganized the facilities in the factory. It supplied machine parts to Company A. However, Company A continued to abuse its power by repeatedly failing to pay to Company B under the pretext of business support. In the end, around February 2024, Company B reported Company A to the Fair Trade Commission for unfair subcontracting practices. After reporting, Company A suddenly filed a lawsuit claiming that ‘Company B is a subsidiary of Company A.’ Company A said, “The representative of Company B receives a salary from Company A, and is the nominal representative. He claimed, "We have an obligation to pay KRW 1.7 billion in retained earnings generated by Company B from 2016 to 2023." In response, Company B claimed that it is an independent business and has no relationship with Company A other than a subcontract. It emphasized that it received a large order from Company A, but suffered extreme economic difficulties as the payment was not paid on time. The court said it is difficult to say that there was an agreement between the two companies regarding the incorporation of the business. I decided. The court ruled, "It is true that the plaintiff provided some economic and human convenience to the defendant's business operation and business performance, but there is no basis to admit that there was an agreement between them to return to the plaintiff the retained earnings generated by the defendant's operation." Kwak Nae-won, lawyer at Daeryun Law Firm, who represented company B, said, "Company A claimed that company B was its subsidiary for reasons such as the purchase of machinery. However, this support was not provided free of charge, and hundreds of millions of won were spent. He explained, "Company B believed in Company A's promise to increase orders and took the risk of expanding its business. Company A claimed that Company B's sales increased significantly due to its business support, but Company A's other subcontractors also experienced increased sales during that period, and it was not a preferential treatment for Company B or an in-house factory, but rather a typical pattern of subcontracting during Company A's business expansion period." Attorney Kwak added, “Company A hired one of the top three domestic law firms, so the response was difficult, but we were able to win the case after proving Company A’s retaliation for reporting to the Fair Trade Commission through legal interpretation,” he said.

The Korea Battery Industry Association announced on the 16th that it plans to hold a 'US OBBB law and visa response strategy briefing session'. This briefing session will be held at 14:00 on the 21st at El Tower in Yangjae, Seoul, hosted by the Ministry of Trade, Industry and Energy and the Ministry of Foreign Affairs, and sponsored by Kim & Chang Law Firm, Yulchon Law Firm, KOTRA, and the Korea Institute for Industrial Economics & Trade, and about 150 industry officials related to the US OBBB law, including batteries, solar energy, wind power, and heavy electric equipment, will attend. The briefing session will be held to explore investment, production, and supply chain response strategies and ways to utilize opportunity factors for U.S. investment companies and partner companies in the battery and solar power industries following the enactment of the 'One Big, Beautiful Act (OBBB Act)', the 2025 budget adjustment bill signed by U.S. President Donald Trump on the 4th. In addition, an event will be held to share major cases of the recently greatly strengthened U.S. visa issuance and entry screening process with partner companies entering the U.S. and introduce practical response know-how. Regarding the U.S. OBBB law, attorney Ja-min Koo of Covington & Burling, a prominent U.S. law firm, Hong Wook-seon, a foreign attorney at Yulchon, and accountant Jeong Hyeon are discussing ▲ the main contents of the OBBB law, ▲ major revisions to the Advanced Manufacturing and Production Tax Credit (AMPC), Clean Power Investment Tax Credit (ITC) and Production Tax Credit (PTC), and ▲ the global minimum tax. It focuses on explaining corporate tax reform, etc. Kim & Chang Law Firm's lawyers So-yeon Park, Yeon-woo Lee, and Eui-hyeon Kim jointly introduce the main contents of the requirements for ▲Prohibited Foreign Entities (PFE) and ▲PFE's Material Assistance, which are newly introduced and applied to AMPC, ITC, and PTC, tax credits related to clean energy such as batteries, solar power, wind power, and carbon capture. In addition, KOTRA and the Korea Institute for Industrial Economics and Trade will announce strategies to utilize opportunity factors for Korea-US battery cooperation and entry into new demand markets related to US opportunity factors resulting from the enactment of the OBBB law. In addition, Kim Dong-yoon, head of the North American Economic and Diplomacy Department at the Ministry of Foreign Affairs, and attorney Kim Mia of Daeryun Law Firm will introduce ▲ U.S. visa and entry procedures and practical response know-how, and various sessions will also be held. In particular, the U.S. OBBB law includes support and regulation for various industries such as batteries, solar power, and heavy electric equipment, so this seminar was prepared to provide practical response plans and a checklist of legal responses to small and medium-sized companies that have difficulty responding to normal regulations. The Korea Battery Industry Association argued, “The Advanced Manufacturing Production Tax Credit (AMPC) has been maintained and uncertainty related to IRA has been resolved, but due to the reorganization of the battery supply chain in the U.S. market to meet practical support requirements, our companies must reduce the proportion of use of parts and materials from specific countries every year.” He continued, "However, as certain countries' exports and investments to the U.S. become more difficult, it could become a new opportunity for us. We hope that this briefing session will be a good opportunity to strengthen new security cooperation with the U.S. by presenting companies with ways to strengthen compliance capabilities and practical response strategies."

The overall labor policy stance of this government is to shorten working hours and expand state responsibility, but it is of the position that a drastic policy shift is necessary for sustainable work-life harmony. In particular, public attention is being paid to the introduction of the '4.5-day week system', which was one of President Lee Jae-myung's election promises. In fact, a significant number of citizens were found to be positive about the introduction of the 4.5-day week system. PMI, a data consulting company, recently conducted a survey on the introduction of the 4.5-day week system among 1,000 male and female adults aged 19 to 69 across the country, and found that 37.9% of respondents were in favor. However, difficulties are expected due to the introduction of the system. This is because companies have no choice but to incur a cost burden. The government plans to encourage voluntary participation by providing incentives to companies that adopt the 4.5-day week system, but there are also voices of concern. When working hours are shortened, companies are forced to hire additional workers to maintain production. From a professional perspective, although it is still only a pilot project, the 4.5-day work week appears to be an unavoidable trend. It is predicted that changes in working methods will be inevitable due to Korea's unique long working hours and the problems of low birth rate and aging. In particular, Article 50 of the current Labor Standards Act stipulates that working hours per week cannot exceed 40 hours, excluding break times. This sets an upper limit on working hours, and employers can voluntarily set working hours shorter than 40 hours upon consultation with workers. Therefore, it is possible to introduce the 4.5-day week system without revising the law. The 4.5-day week system can be seen as a transition to a more efficient work structure with less work. However, institutional supplementation and policy support are essential for expansion into the private sector. Specifically, practical measures are required, such as ① reforming the wage system to enable short-time work hours without wage cuts, ② financial support for the burden of fixed costs, and ③ consulting on the introduction of flexible working hours for small and medium-sized businesses. Currently, most companies maintain a seniority-based wage system, but if the number of working days and working hours is reduced, labor productivity may decrease, resulting in business withdrawal, restructuring, and workforce reduction. Therefore, it is necessary to prevent a decrease in productivity and strengthen corporate competitiveness by reforming the time-based wage system to a role-based wage system. In particular, if a company wants to reduce its fixed cost burden, various policy support should be provided, such as customized support by company size, strengthening finances of small and medium-sized enterprises, and manpower matching support and consulting. If these efforts are continued, it will be possible to establish a practical system. In addition, if the 4.5-day week system is established, it is likely to have a variety of effects on the industry. First, it can be advantageous in securing young talent who value work-life balance, and in the long run, it can also increase workers' work concentration and loyalty to the organization. On the other hand, in human resource-centered industries such as service and manufacturing industries, rising labor costs and rigidity in human resource management can act as disadvantages, so it will be important to design a system tailored to each industry and reach an agreement between labor and management.

Court: “Possibly confused with someone else.” An office worker in his 40s who was indicted on charges of having sex with a middle school student he met through a chat app was found not guilty. On the 17th of last month, the Daegu District Court acquitted Mr. A, a man who had been put on trial on charges of raping a minor. Mr. A was accused of having sexual intercourse with B, a middle school girl, at a motel in 2023, despite knowing that she was a minor. However, while Mr. A acknowledged that they entered the lodging establishment together, he refuted that he did not have sexual intercourse. Ms. B's tone and behavior were strange, so she tried to escape, but Ms. B screamed and blocked her. He also claimed that he did not know his exact age because his age was not properly recorded in the profile of the app through which he communicated with Ms. B. The court found him not guilty. The court said, “The victim met several men over a short period of time, and the genes of men other than the defendant were detected in the victim’s clothes.” He added, “While he makes detailed statements about his relationships with other people, his statements about the defendant lack consistency and specificity.” At the same time, he added, “We cannot rule out the possibility that the victim confused the defendant with another person and made his statement,” and added, “It is difficult to reject the defendant’s claim of innocence and say that there is enough credibility to be confident that the facts of the indictment are true.” Lawyer Jeon Hyeong-oh of Daeryun Law Firm, who represented Mr. A, explained, "For an adult to be guilty of rape of a minor, he must have intention, knowing that the other person was under the age of 16. In this case, Mr. A had no physical opportunity to attempt sexual intercourse with B. This was proven based on data such as genetic testing and the victim's statement."

There is no intention to deceive the court." A man in his 70s who applied for a housing lease registration for a property for which the deposit was not returned even though the lease contract period ended has been cleared of suspicion that he received a false lease registration order. According to the legal community on the 15th, the Incheon District Prosecutors' Office decided not to indict A, a man in his 70s, who was sent to the prosecution on charges of attempted fraud last June. Mr. A was accused of falsely applying for a housing lease registration order for a house that he did not occupy directly or indirectly and thus lost his ability to oppose. Last year, Mr. A applied for a housing lease registration order for an apartment for sale in Incheon Metropolitan City, where he signed a lease contract in 2019. A few months later, Company B, which won the public auction for the property, filed an objection, claiming that Mr. A received a false registration order even though he had lost the right to oppose the property (the legal power that a tenant can claim against a third party). Accordingly, Mr. A signed a lease contract with the landlord in 2019, but did not receive the deposit back after the end of the contract period. ▲The short-term sublease contract is an unavoidable one to reduce deposit damage. The charges were denied, citing the fact that it was a measure ▲ efforts were made to prevent the loss of opposition, such as leaving items behind while maintaining the move-in report. The prosecution ruled that “there was no intention to deceive the court in Mr. A’s actions” and that “it was not a case of manipulating groundless evidence.” It was believed that Mr. A applied for a lease registration order because he believed that he had the power to fight against the real estate in this case while not receiving any refund of the deposit. In relation to this, lawyer Jaehyung Lee of the Daeryun Law Firm, who served as Mr. A's legal representative, said, "For litigation fraud, clear intent to defraud the court must be proven," and added, "Mr. A, a victim of lease fraud who paid a large amount of deposit, did not stop making efforts to protect his rights. Through these efforts, the crime was committed. “We were able to obtain acquittal by making it clear that there was no ‘intention’,” he explained.

Lim Dong-han, an attorney at Dongin Law Firm, "Discussed in existing precedents 'Director’s duty of loyalty under commercial law'was mainly interpreted with a focus on the company., Accordingly, criticism has continued to be raised that the interests of general shareholders may be infringed upon in situations where there is a conflict between the interests of the controlling shareholder and the company."as "As shareholders are designated as the subject of directors' fiduciary duties, directors 'all shareholders'has a legal obligation to protect the interests of and treat them fairly."explained.Seok-Hyeon Yoo, an attorney at Mission Law Firm, "It's not just about adding a few words to the law., This clearly declares the direction of commercial law regarding the duties of directors, which may result in shaking up the entire foundation of directors' company management practices."as "Changes will be made to further strengthen the protection of shareholder rights and improve the transparency of corporate governance."I pointed out that.Byun Seung-gyu, an attorney at Seum Law Firm, "It is expected that a tendency will be formed to not disregard the interests of not only major shareholders but also minority shareholders."said. Environment, Society, Governance(ESG) There were also observations that it would have a positive impact on management.. law firm(finite) Lin's lawyer Kim Ji-ho said: "The company has an institutional mechanism to fulfill its duty of loyalty., For example, the Director Recommendation Committee to strengthen the independence and transparency of the board of directors., It is highly likely that a director remuneration committee will be established."as "Corporate governance can be improved, To protect shareholder interests in the long term ESG There is room for more effort in management as well."He said. 'decisions for shareholders' How do you judge…There is a possibility of a surge in lawsuits 'total shareholder profit'Ina 'Fair treatment of the interests of all shareholders' It is pointed out that it may not be easy for management to judge that the decision was made for shareholders because the content of the amendment is abstract.. Lee Young-joo, lawyer at One Law Firm, "For example, the division of property, which is a major problem,, The spun off subsidiary is an independent corporation, so its growth potential can be recognized at a glance and it has a structure that is good for investment while focusing on its core capabilities., Minority shareholders of the parent company will no longer be able to exercise influence over the subsidiary, and the value of the shares they hold will decline due to the separation of the parent company's core business."as "(This decision) Is it a management decision for the company's sustainable growth?, It may be difficult to determine whether the choice is for a specific person, such as a major shareholder."pointed out. When a director's decision is judged to conflict with the interests of some shareholders or violate the duty to protect shareholders' interests, lawsuits demanding legal liability may increase rapidly.. In criminal terms, there is a possibility that the scope of application for breach of trust will be expanded..Attorney Kim "Previously, directors had to do with their relationships with individual shareholders. 'person who handles affairs'The attitude of the precedent was that it does not have the status of, With this amendment, directors may become shareholders' affairs handlers, so violations of their fiduciary duties may result in shareholders' losses.(Damage to stock value)If this leads to a breach of trust, the likelihood of being recognized as a breach of trust has increased."said. The problem is that as the possibility of directors becoming embroiled in lawsuits increases, active decision-making may become difficult.. Shin Jong-su, an attorney at Daeryun Law Firm, "It is pointed out that the possibility of ex post facto accountability increases in directors' decision-making, which may lead to passive management."explained. Attorney Byun also "There is a risk that problems may arise where management puts the director's own avoidance of responsibility ahead of the company's interests."He emphasized. It is also expected that minority shareholders may claim excessive rights.. Attorney Byun "There is a possibility that the management rights of a company with a small majority shareholder's stake may become unstable or spark a dispute., Exceptionally, there is some concern that if some minority shareholders make excessive demands, it may be detrimental to the company and all shareholders."said. Attorney Yoo "Since the provisions of the Commercial Act have no choice but to be interpreted abstractly until the standards for judgment are established,, In particular, controversy over company operation practices will continue."I predicted. There is a need to document the decision-making process and establish an internal audit system. Accordingly, companies need to prepare response measures such as reorganizing the internal control system and continuing active communication with shareholders.. Prove that the director's decision was for the benefit of shareholders, This is because the management decision process must be shown objectively and transparently.. Lawyer Shin "Management collects sufficient information when making decisions, review of alternatives, The legitimacy of responsible management must be secured by documenting procedures such as review of conflicts of interest between management and shareholders."advised.This lawyer "Strengthening shareholder disclosure and background for discussion during board resolutions, You must clearly prepare the basis for your judgment, etc."He said "When dealing with management or major shareholders, it is necessary to secure procedural transparency, such as by applying the most conservative standards and receiving objective external review."explained.You should not miss out on maintaining your audit system.. Attorney Yoo "An internal audit system must be established in relation to all matters where interests between shareholders may conflict."I pointed out.Attorney Lim "It is desirable to utilize the opinions of external experts"as "Corporate briefing session(IR) Efforts are also needed to strengthen functions and provide sufficient opportunities for minority shareholders to express their opinions at general shareholders' meetings."He emphasized.In addition, signing up for executive liability insurance was also suggested as a countermeasure.. Attorney Kim "Subscribing to executive liability insurance to prepare for claims for damages from minority shareholders can also be a kind of safety measure."as "However, in this case, the grounds for exemption are not overly broad., You must check whether there are any special terms and conditions that may allow shareholder-filed lawsuits to be included in compensation."He said.It is also important to accumulate practical cases that can be referenced.. Attorney Byun "In order to establish the specific meaning and scope of a director's duty of loyalty to shareholders, future practice and accumulation of precedents are necessary."He said.

According to data released by the Supreme Court, the Korean Intellectual Property Office, and the National Intellectual Property Commission in March, the average number of domestic patent infringement civil lawsuits filed over the past five years (2018-2022) was approximately 92 per year, and the average processing period was 19 months (581 days). However, the citation rate was found to be only around 20%, which is significantly lower than the global level (70% in the United States, 80% in China, etc.). Meanwhile, the number of cases in which domestic companies participated in the Korean Intellectual Property Office's industrial property rights dispute mediation last year was 160, the highest ever. Accordingly, there are growing voices in the industry that companies must prepare countermeasures against intellectual property rights. In line with this trend, Daeryun expanded and reorganized its intellectual property group and launched the 'Intellectual Property One Team', which is composed of experts with extensive practical experience in the courts and the Korean Intellectual Property Office. A key member is Lee Da-woo, a lawyer who has worked as a judge at the Patent Court and the Seoul Central District Court. Attorney Lee, who recently joined the team, is a hands-on talent with a deep understanding of patent litigation and technology dispute structures. While working at Yulchon Law Firm, he overturned and overturned the lower court's ruling regarding the export of trade secrets of an automobile parts company and resulted in an acquittal. Attorney Minwoo Cho, who served as an examiner at the Korean Intellectual Property Office and a technical examiner at the Seoul Central District Court, is also a key member. Having handled technology-related cases in both the executive branch and the judiciary, he provides legal advice and supports litigation response based on multi-layered analysis and practical interpretation. In addition, Tae-Hwan Kim and Joo-Mi Lim, who are registered intellectual property rights lawyers registered with the Korean Bar Association and have been active in numerous patent disputes and corporate litigation, will join and add to the group's capabilities. Haeseong Kang, a patent attorney who served as a technical examiner at the Patent Court and an adjudicator at the Korean Intellectual Property Office, also joins the group. Patent Attorney Kang is an expert with experience in everything from examination and trial to judicial decision processes, and has specialized capabilities in responding to technology-centered disputes. In addition, patent attorney Minhee Ma, who has performed significant intellectual property rights work, including trademark disputes for large corporations and advising on character trademark applications, will also be present. In particular, Patent Attorney Ma has led many successful results in overseas-related cases, such as agreements on the coexistence of global trademarks and responses to overseas trademark brokerage and infringement. In addition, expert Nami Kwak, a patent attorney specializing in U.S. applications, has joined the team and is providing advice on domestic and foreign patent applications and international intellectual property rights issues. Commissioner Kwak worked at an American patent law firm and was in charge of analyzing and establishing strategies for numerous patent applications, including licensing contracts with overseas companies. Through this reorganization, Daeryun's Intellectual Property Group plans to strengthen legal services in all areas of intellectual property rights, including responding to patent and design rights infringements, as well as responding to copyright disputes related to AI and software, protecting brand and trademark rights, and intellectual property rights contracts and licensing disputes. CEO Daeryun Kim Kook-il said, "Intellectual property rights are an important factor that determines a company's core competitiveness in an era of technological innovation and globalization." He added, "In particular, at a time when technology and creativity are important, issues related to intellectual property rights that companies face are becoming more complex." He then said, “As Daeryun Intellectual Property Group is comprised of a group of experts with both theory and practice, we will provide a one-stop legal solution to protect our clients’ rights.” Reporter Lee Dong-jun (blondie@segye.com)[View full article] Segye Ilbo - Increasing demand for intellectual property rights laws...

According to the legal community on the 14th, the Gyeonggi Northern Police Agency decided not to forward Mr. A, who was booked on charges of breach of duty, forgery of official documents and events, etc. on the 12th of last month. While working as a public servant from February 2017 to June of last year, Mr. A carried out youth-related projects and used a corporate card a total of 33 times. He is accused of using a budget worth about 2 million won for personal purposes. He was also accused of forging official documents by arbitrarily putting their seals on them while writing an operating business plan for this crime without obtaining approval from the head of the government office or department head. Mr. A completely denied the charges, saying that he actually carried out work even on days off such as vacations and childcare hours. Mr. A claimed, “When I was on sick leave, after receiving treatment, I returned and held a meeting with other people. In this process, I used conference fees, etc., and this cannot be considered fraudulent use. The official seal was also taken with permission after an oral report was made to superiors.” The police believed that there was insufficient evidence to admit Mr. A’s charges. It is judged that it cannot be concluded that the meeting did not proceed just because Mr. A applied for vacation, etc., as claimed by Mr. A. Attorney Jeong Jae-bong of Daeryun Law Firm, who represented Mr. A, said, “This issue was a problem because Mr. A used the budget at the time of using annual leave, or the attendees listed on the budget application were different from the actual attendees.” “We only prepared and submitted a business plan according to requests while carrying out the project, and there was no intention or purpose of forgery or event,” he said, adding, “All of Mr. A’s budget usage details in question in this case were used for actual purposes.” Reporter Kwon Byeong-seok (bsk730@fnnews.com)[View full article] Civil servant accused of ‘suspicion of misappropriation of legal documents’ ‘non-transferred’… Why?

Green Life and others held a meeting in the conference room on the 5th floor of Busan Station on the 13th and said, "The Ministry of Oceans and Fisheries and HMM headquarters will also move to the North Port! Revival of the original downtown, now is the opportunity." shouted. About 20 people attended the event, including former National Assembly member Choi In-ho, city council member Jeon Won-seok, district councilor Lee Im-seon (Saha-gu), doctors, lawyers, construction and real estate industry workers, and citizens. First, in the case of Supply Depot 55, the problem of contaminated soil from a nearby apartment construction site was also pointed out in the government audit, but Busan City criticized that there was no significant movement after Mayor Park Hyeong-jun's statement of 'active review' and ordered 'speed'. Some expressed concerns about health issues for nearby residents. University professor A pointed out, "There are almost no cases of epidemiological investigation of old military bases, but the 55th Supply Depot should not stop at just moving troops, but should also investigate the level of contamination of surrounding groundwater and exposure to volatile substances." Baek Hae-ju, CEO of Green Life, also said that there is a need to discuss practical policies for Busan's development, including the water purification issue of nearby Dongcheon, which is a waste of budget, and said, "Above all, the space where the 55th Supply Depot left was should be created as a park, and no other facilities or buildings, such as apartments, should be built." There was also great interest in hosting a maritime specialized court. Park Dong-il, CEO of Daeryun Law Firm, said, “Without a maritime court, we rely on foreign courts and arbitration institutions such as the UK, Singapore, and China, causing dispute costs of approximately 200 billion to 500 billion won to be leaked overseas every year.” He added, “The maritime court is essential for quick and accurate rulings, establishment of maritime sovereignty, and strengthening industrial competitiveness.” Attorney Choi Yong-ki also emphasized, "Some see it as a competitive structure with Incheon City in relation to hosting the Maritime Court, but before competing for the big house or the small house, international case-related work must be brought to Busan. This will be a great help in practical regional development, such as the development of the Northern Sea Route, which is also President Lee Jae-myung's pledge, and the development of related industries and human resources training." The issue of relocating Sajik Baseball Stadium to the North Port was also discussed. Park Young-bok, a construction company executive, selected 'creation of the North Port Sports + Culture Complex' as Busan's task for balanced development, along with the 55th Supply Depot, Gadeok New Airport, and the relocation of the Ministry of Oceans and Fisheries and related organizations. He said, “In terms of citizen response and cultural tourism, a facility that combines a dome-type baseball stadium and an arena-level performance hall is desirable, but a comprehensive review is needed that links construction costs with the Sajik Baseball Stadium reconstruction plan.” In addition, it was proposed to install a library, swimming pool, and outdoor performance hall in the space where Sajik Baseball Stadium left. Former lawmaker Choi In-ho, the guest speaker, said, "I believe that communication between the Ministry of National Defense and Busan City is important regarding the issue of relocating the 55th Supply Depot. I will look for a role that will help the citizens of Busan." He went on to say, “There is a lot of interest in the development of the North Port, which will change the future food map of Busan.” He added, “Conflicts will be reduced and the positive function will be maximized if we approach it from the perspective of Busan’s overall development, rather than attracting specific facilities and institutions to specific local governments.” In particular, regarding the first phase of the North Port development, “There are criticisms that development centered on apartments and officetels by special interest groups is gaining momentum, and all citizens are indignant. If you combine the first, second, and third phases, it will become a wonderful world-class city that will surpass New York City.” “This will happen, so we need to correct this before it’s too late,” he emphasized. Regarding the development of the site behind Sajik Baseball Stadium, he expressed caution, saying that although libraries and swimming pools are good, there will be people who will be disappointed and there will be voices opposing it. The housing issue of Ministry of Oceans and Fisheries officials was also discussed, especially among citizens of Dong-gu, the location of the 55th Supply Depot and the relocation site of the Ministry of Oceans and Fisheries. Jeong Nam-jin, CEO of J Real Estate Brokerage Corporation, said, “Approximately 32,000 new apartments will be supplied near the North Port from 2026 to 2031,” adding, “By utilizing the residential land and residential-commercial complex land within the second phase of the North Port site, we will be able to support the settlement of employees of the Ministry of Oceans and Fisheries and related organizations.” Seo Jin-seok, Yeongnam headquarters reporter (sisa533@sisajournal.com)[View full article] “Apartment-focused North Port development will face citizen anger” (link) 2026-05-03T21:24:46.198Z https://www.daeryunlaw.com/en/broadcast/5446 The court ruled that a debtor who had lent money to an acquaintance and failed to repay it, calling it 'gambling money', must pay the full amount. According to the legal community on the 14th, the Gangneung branch of the Chuncheon District Court ruled in favor of all the plaintiffs in a lawsuit filed by plaintiff A against defendant B on the 11th of last month to claim the return of the loan. Person A, who worked as a hold'em pub dealer, gave business funds, living expenses, Approximately 12 million won was lent to him in the name of repaying existing gambling debts. However, Mr. B refused to repay the amount, claiming that the money he received was 'illegal wages' that he is not obligated to repay under civil law. According to Article 746 of the Civil Code, when property or labor is provided for illegal reasons, the return of the profits cannot be claimed. Accordingly, Mr. A filed a lawsuit. There was no reason to lend gambling funds to Mr. B. During the trial, Mr. A continued to discourage Mr. B from gambling, and emphasized that at the time, Mr. B borrowed money, citing the need for business funds, not gambling. The court ruled in Mr. A's favor. The court explained, "It is acknowledged that the defendant asked the plaintiff to lend him money needed for business or earnestly asked him to borrow money to repay existing gambling debts." Also, "Even if the plaintiff knew of the defendant's gambling, some of the loan money was "It appears to have been paid for living expenses unrelated to the defendant's gambling, and the remaining funds are not new gambling funds, but to repay already incurred gambling debts, so they cannot be considered wages for illegal causes," said Park Da-jeong, a lawyer at Daeryun Law Firm who served as Mr. A's legal representative. “We were able to obtain a favorable ruling by proving the purpose, such as repayment of existing debt or business funds,” he said.

Attorney Kim Tae-hwan, "Possibility of copyright protection...Cannot be provided only by payment of a price." Controversy is brewing as the university lecture site 'UniStudy', a subsidiary of the education company Megastudy (CEO Son Seong-eong), collects university midterm and final exam questions in exchange for cash compensation. In particular, criticism has been raised that the submitted test papers are inappropriate as they are uploaded to the bulletin board in their original text without modification and are provided only to paid members. There is also criticism that this kind of behavior was used as a means to secure members for ‘Unistudy.’ On the 1st, Megastudy posted an event through its application 'Cube' and university lecture site 'Unistudy' announcements, offering Shinsegae gift certificates to college students if they submit mid-term and final exam papers and genealogy. 'Cube' announced that it collects the most recent five years' worth of test papers from each university's midterm and final exams in an email format. If you submit only the test questions, you will receive a 10,000 won Shinsegae gift certificate, and if you submit an explanation of the correct answers, you will receive a 15,000 won voucher. According to the notice, the submitted test papers will not be returned and can be used as content creation materials for the subsidiary ‘UniStudy’. 'UniStudy' also stated that, limited to the most recent 5-year test papers, all who took a photo of the past exam paper and uploaded their genealogy would receive a 5,000 won gift certificate from CU Convenience Store and 20,000 won Unistudy points, and 7 people would receive a 30,000 won voucher from Shinsegae Department Store. Article 32 of the Copyright Act allows the reproduction and distribution of published works only for the purpose of evaluating knowledge and skills, such as entrance exams or qualification tests, but does not apply for commercial purposes. Since Megastudy announced that it will use the test paper to produce educational content, it can be interpreted that it has a clear commercial purpose. Another problem is that Megastudy uploaded the collected test papers to its bulletin board in their original text without modification. Since the test paper containing the test taker's original text is not a secondary work that has been summarized or edited, it is pointed out that it may be subject to copying and public transmission under copyright law. In particular, this material appears to be intended for commercial use as it is set to be downloadable only to paid members. A similar case in the past is the ‘Jokbo.com’ incident, which collected and provided high school test questions without permission. Regarding this case, the Seoul High Court judge ruled that “the test questions are creative works, and unauthorized collection and commercial use is copyright infringement.” The court ruled, "The plaintiffs, who are teachers, made a mental effort to measure the academic performance of students at their school and calculate their grades in accordance with their educational philosophy and presented the test questions in this case without copying others. Since it is recognized that there is a minimum of creativity in the expression of the questions and the expression of the proposed answers in the questions presented, it is reasonable to believe that the test questions in this case are works protected by copyright law." The legal community also pointed out that Megastudy's collection of university exam papers was inappropriate. Kim Tae-hwan, a lawyer at Daeryun Law Firm, explained, "University test questions are likely to be protected as copyrighted works. There is creative expression in the part that makes up the question, and because the expression, not the idea itself, is protected, problems that involve the professor's expert knowledge and creative judgment can be protected by copyright." He continued, “We cannot freely provide test questions to paid members because we did not obtain permission from the professor, the copyright owner, or the school, the transferee, but simply paid a monetary price.” A similar method can be seen in Megastudy’s ‘Unistudy’s ‘Unipass’. ‘Unipass’, a refund program for paid lectures, is a system that refunds tuition to students who achieve a certain grade standard, and requires submission of test papers as a condition for refund. This can also be interpreted as a structure to secure someone else's copyrighted work in exchange for monetary compensation. Megastudy has taken a strong stance against illegal copying or unauthorized distribution of its textbooks. In fact, in the past, we have taken strong action, such as demanding an apology from those who illegally spread it and posting this on our website. In this event, it is pointed out that it is inconsistent with the attitude it has shown so far in that it attempted to collect the works of university test takers and use them for its own content. This paper contacted Megastudy, but Megastudy did not issue a statement on the related controversy.[View full article] [Exclusive] Megastudy, ‘paid collection’ of university test papers… File a claim of copyright infringement (Go here) 2026-05-10T07:07:05.785Z https://www.daeryunlaw.com/en/broadcast/5444 A man he met through an app...showed off his wealth to win favor and recommend investment. The court said, "He committed the crime while on probation for a similar crime. He needs to be severely punished." A man who stole hundreds of millions of won by taking advantage of the goodwill of the other person he found out through a smartphone application was sentenced to prison. According to the legal community on the 10th, the Jeonju District Court sentenced a man in his 30s, A, who was indicted on fraud charges on the 26th of last month to 6 years in prison. He is accused of stealing about 400 million won by contacting nine people, including Mr. B, whom he met. As a result of the investigation, Mr. A approached the victims by showing off his wealth, gained their favor, and then encouraged them to invest. The prosecution believes that Mr. A committed this crime for the purpose of repaying personal debt. During the trial, the victims pleaded for severe punishment, saying that Mr. A had repeatedly delayed repayment, saying he would repay the money. The court said, "The defendant deceived many victims. He said, "A large amount of money was defrauded," and "Above all, he committed the crime while on probation for a similar crime, so he needs to be severely punished." He then said, "The defendant also paid the defrauded money to some victims as a way to prevent them from committing additional crimes." He said, "It is difficult to evaluate that he purely restored the damage to the victims, and he was not forgiven by most of the victims." He stated the reason for sentencing. Daeryun Law Firm, which served as legal representation for the victim, Mr. B. Attorney Lee Jae-hyung explained, "Mr. A created expectations by making it seem like he would return some of the swindled money, preventing them from reporting it to the investigative agency," and added, "This was an act that caused additional damage to the victims, and the court appears to have judged this situation to be very poor and imposed a severe punishment."

On the 11th of last month, the Daejeon District Court sentenced Mr. In addition, a 10-year ban on employment at child and youth-related institutions and 5 years of probation after the end of the sentence were ordered. Mr. A was accused of sexually assaulting Ms. B, a teenage female student whom he met through a mobile messenger last year, and filming the incident. As a result of the investigation, it was confirmed that Mr. A had recorded the sexual conversation that took place on the phone with the victim without permission and then used this as an excuse to encourage them to meet. Person B said that Mr. A came to his house and forced him to drink alcohol and committed this crime. He appealed for severe punishment, claiming that he committed the crime. In response, Mr. A denied the charges, saying, “The relationship was consensual.” This is because Ms. B answered ‘I understand’ when asked for consent before having sex. The court sentenced Mr. A to prison. The court ruled, "At the time of the crime, the victim's resistance was already suppressed by the defendant's threat to distribute the recording file," and "The victim's passive response of 'I understand' right before sexual intercourse cannot be viewed as a true exercise of sexual self-determination." It also said, "The method of the crime was very vicious, as he threatened the victim with a recording file, forced a meeting, and even committed adultery." He added, "He even committed the crime in his residence while the victim's parents were away. He stated the reason for the sentencing, saying, "Severe punishment of isolation from society, including not receiving forgiveness from the victim, is inevitable." Lawyer Hwang Se-jeong of Daeryun Law Firm, who represented Ms. B, said, "This case was not just a simple sexual assault, but a serious criminal act that destroyed the victim's personality through online media."

Therefore, even in situations where the suspect has been falsely accused, it is difficult for the suspect to defend himself. In particular, since rape and other sexual assault cases occur in private spaces, a truth battle must be waged to determine the truth, and in this process, actual damage such as social stigma can grow uncontrollably. The most important thing when caught up in sexual crime allegations is an accurate initial response and prompt securing of evidence. Before an investigation agency begins a full-scale investigation, they must systematically collect data that can prove their innocence. For example, text messages or messenger conversations with the other person, call records, photos, location information, CCTV footage that shows the circumstances of the meeting, and statements from bystanders can be crucial evidence to refute criminal charges. If there is data that can prove that the complainant was not at the time or place claimed, or explain the context, it is necessary to compile it. Reports of false sexual crimes occur more often among close relationships such as lovers and acquaintances than among strangers. After a relationship breaks down, emotional conflict or revenge comes into play, leading to exaggeration of the situation and false accusations. Looking at an actual case, there was a case where a boyfriend who broke up with his girlfriend was accused of sexual assault. The client protested that it was a normal encounter unrelated to sexual violence, but had difficulty in defending the case due to the specific statement of the accuser, his ex-girlfriend. In this case, the defense attorney focused on proving his innocence by collecting various records of messages exchanged with his ex-lover, photos, and third party testimony. In particular, it was emphasized that the two continued to have peaceful conversations and natural encounters even after the date of the crime claimed by the accuser. In addition, a record of the other party sending greetings after a certain period of time after the breakup was submitted as evidence. Based on this, we were able to successfully change the perception of investigative agencies. As a result, the case was able to be closed with a decision of 'not forwarded' at the police stage. Attorney Seo Bong-ha of Daeryun Law Firm in Seongnam said, "Sex crimes are serious cases that leave irreparable defamation and social disadvantage to the suspect, so if you are wrongfully accused, you need a quick and precise legal response more than anything else. If you make an unfavorable statement while trying to respond in the first instance alone, it can make the subsequent situation more difficult, so we have extensive case experience from the beginning of the investigation. He said, “Getting help from a sex crime lawyer is the starting point for a safe defense.” Global Epic CP Lee Soo-hwan / lsh@globalepic.co.kr If you have been wrongfully implicated in a sex crime... Legal assistance is essential from the beginning of the investigation (link) 2026-05-11T05:18:22.772Z https://www.daeryunlaw.com/en/broadcast/5438 Although it is rare, even in this era, there are families that have a ancestral temple, a graveyard, and a shrine and have continued the tradition of paying homage to their ancestors from generation to generation. Our family is one of them. My family is the head of the Seongsan family, and lives in a clan village in Hangae Village, Wolhang-myeon, Seongju-gun, Gyeongsangbuk-do. We have inherited ancestors, tombs, shrines, and ancestral rites from generation to generation, and have been serving our ancestors. Perhaps that is why the author has some experience representing the defendant in cases where the division of inherited property was requested. The ownership relationship of the mountain that enshrined the tomb of our ancestors can be broadly divided into two types. One is a method in which a clan, which is an unincorporated division, owns a mountain and entrusts the registered title to the clan representative or other trustworthy clan members. In principle, the Act on Registration of the Name of the Real Owner of Real Estate considers both the title trust agreement and the registration pursuant to this agreement invalid (Article 4, Paragraphs 1 and 2 of the same Act), but with regard to real estate held by a clan, an exception provision is made to recognize the effect of a title trust contract in which the actual rights holder and the registered name are different (Article 8, Paragraph 1 of the same Act). In this case, the registered holder of the deceased, that is, the title trustee, is determined by a contract between the clan and the title trustee, and even if the registered holder dies without settling the title, the title trustee's heir automatically succeeds to the title trustee. In the case of a change in ownership based on a title trust agreement, no gift tax, transfer tax, or acquisition tax is imposed. In reality, disputes often arise when the heirs of the title trustee claim ownership of the deceased's property against the clan because the clan and the trustee do not clearly write a contract. In order to prevent such disputes and risks arising from them, it is important to have the title trust agreement notarized and keep it well. The other method is for the person who presides over the ancestral rites to inherit the deceased's assets, etc. The Civil Code stipulates in Article 1008-3 that ‘the person who presides over the ancestral rites shall inherit the ownership of Geumyang forest land within 1 jeongbo of a tomb, farmland as tomb soil within 600 pyeong, and the genealogy and tools.’ The meaning of this law is, first, that in the case of the death of the heir who presided over the ancestral rite, Geumyang forest land, grave soil, genealogy, and ancestral rites are excluded from the inherited property subject to division. In other words, the Geumyang forest, graveyard, genealogy, and ritual tools are inherited solely by the next person who presides over the ancestral rites, and the person who presides over the ancestral rites not only inherits the title but also has complete ownership. According to the 2008 Supreme Court unanimous decision, if there is no agreement between the co-heirs, the eldest son of the deceased becomes the ancestor, if the eldest son has already died, the eldest grandson, and if there is no son among the co-heirs, the eldest daughter of the deceased becomes the ancestor. What is important to note is that Article 1008-3 of the Civil Act only applies in cases of inheritance and does not apply in cases where the deceased disposed of Geumyang forest land, grave soil, genealogy, and tools in advance. According to Article 8, Paragraph 3 of the Enforcement Decree of the Inheritance Tax and Gift Tax Act, tax exemption applies up to 9,900 square meters for Geumyang forest land and 1,980 square meters for farmland with seedling soil. If the total asset value of Geumyang forest land and farmland with seedling soil exceeds 200 million won, tax exemption is applied only up to 200 million won. In reality, disputes often arise when other heirs claim that they will not recognize the mountain as Geumyang forest land and file a lawsuit to divide the inherited property, or when they question the status of the person who presided over the ancestral rite and file a lawsuit to confirm the status of the person who presided over the ancestral rite. If you want to inherit Geumyang Forest alone, you must take good care of the cemetery, the mountain that guards the cemetery, and especially the trees surrounding the cemetery. If the forest is cut down and some of the area is used for other purposes, the nature of Geumyang Forest will be lost. It would be best to familiarize yourself with these legal principles in advance to prevent family members from fighting over property, but if a dispute has already occurred, you should immediately contact a lawyer who specializes in inheritance and have the situation diagnosed. This is because inheritance issues are intertwined with inheritance tax reporting and payment deadlines, so the longer it is delayed, the more losses accumulate.[View full article] [Column] Can prenatal inheritance be divided into inherited property? (Shortcut) 2026-05-14T01:09:57.422Z https://www.daeryunlaw.com/en/broadcast/5437 Recently, the U.S. commercial real estate market is undergoing a structural transition. Due to the prolonged high interest rate trend, the establishment of telecommuting, and the expansion of online consumption, commercial assets centered on offices and retail are recording high vacancy rates everywhere. In some urban areas, the vacancy rate is close to 30%, and the real estate value adjustment that began in earnest after the pandemic has not yet ended. As uncertainty in the commercial real estate market grows, residential real estate, which has the advantage of relatively stable cash flow and possession of real assets, is attracting attention as a new alternative. In fact, residential real estate in the United States can expect a rental yield of 7 to 9% per year depending on the region, and is strengthening its position as an investment asset that generates fixed cash flow even in a high interest rate environment. In particular, from the perspective of foreign investors, the United States is the world's largest domestic market and has a structure that clearly guarantees legal ownership, so it is evaluated as an investment destination that can pursue asset defense and profit generation at the same time. However, the essential key to investing in real estate in the United States is not simply whether you can buy it, but how to operate it and with what structure to manage taxes and risks. In particular, in the case of residential real estate, various maintenance costs such as property tax, education tax, insurance premium, management cost, and repair cost are continuously incurred. In addition, since the United States has multiple tax systems at the federal-state-local government level, investors must have a prior understanding of regional tax rates, tax reduction systems, and taxation methods. Various tax reductions and tax-saving strategies exist throughout the United States, and their application requirements also differ from state to state. In particular, in high-density residential areas in the eastern region (New York, Massachusetts, Pennsylvania, etc.), tax reduction systems for actual residents or the elderly are relatively well developed. As such, the tax environment has a direct impact on the rate of return on investment, so it must be comprehensively approached from the perspective of the total cost of ownership as well as the simple sale price. These institutional characteristics can be understood in more detail by looking at New York State as an example. New York State is one of the representative states with a carefully designed tax reduction system for actual residents. First, the STAR (School Tax Relief) system is a program that provides education tax relief to actual owners whose annual income is less than $500,000. Additionally, if a senior citizen aged 65 or older resides in the property directly, they can receive a property tax reduction of up to 50% through the Senior Citizen Exemption system. In this way, when combined with a mid- to long-term holding strategy for actual residence or retirement purposes, the tax burden is significantly reduced. So, which areas in New York State are promising as practical investment destinations? A representative example is Syracuse. This city is a typical university city centered around the large campuses of Syracuse University and the State University of New York (SUNY), with a high proportion of out-of-state and overseas students and a lack of dormitory supply. As a result, rental demand for one-room or small apartments is steady, and the average monthly rent for a studio type (one-bedroom) is about $1,400 (about KRW 1.9 million). The sale price of this type of real estate is about $150,000 (about KRW 200 million), and it is a structure that can realize a rental yield of about 8-9% per year even without an actual owner. In particular, if certain requirements are met, it can be used as a complex asset management platform rather than a simple investment, as it can be used as a tax reduction through conversion to actual residence or as a tax saving strategy when gifting or inheritance after long-term holding. However, given that U.S. real estate is both a profitable asset and a high-risk contractual asset, professional legal and tax advice must be obtained first. Foreign investors are exposed to complex legal and institutional variables, such as application of FIRPTA (Foreign Real Estate Transfer Tax Act), possibility of disputes in lease contracts, state-specific tenant protection laws, and various litigation risks. A comprehensive risk management plan must be established, taking into account all possible risks not only during the sales process, but also at the holding and transfer stage. Ultimately, investing in U.S. real estate is not simply purchasing assets, but requires the same strategy and structure as operating an overseas business. Only by comprehensively analyzing all factors such as tax, law, profit, maintenance, and foreign exchange risk and preparing a response strategy can you prevent unexpected losses and achieve stable profit realization and asset defense at the same time. In an era where overseas asset allocation is more important than ever, structure is more important than information, and preparation is what surpasses expectations. When investing in residential real estate in the United States, only investors with legal safeguards can smile to the end.

The court accepted the defendant's claim, pointing out the lack of specific evidence and the insufficiency of the investigation process. The Tongyeong branch of the Changwon District Court found Mr. A not guilty on charges of violating the Road Traffic Act (drunk driving) on the 11th of last month. Mr. A was on trial for driving about 40km from a road in Haenam-gun, Jeollanam-do to a nearby gas station with a blood alcohol level of 0.074% at around 8 p.m. on July 27 last year. It was handed over. At the time, the investigative agency charged him with drunk driving based on the fact that Mr. A spoke gibberish and stated that ‘someone else was driving.’ It was confirmed that Mr. A, who had previously been on vacation with his girlfriend and an acquaintance, had been drinking while having lunch that day. After finishing his meal, Mr. A called a designated driver and arrived at the accommodation. Mr. A woke up a few hours later, got into an argument with his girlfriend, and then got into a car. Arriving at a nearby gas station, Mr. A drank a bottle of soju in the car and fell asleep in the back seat of the car. Afterwards, the police were dispatched following a report from a gas station employee, and a breathalyzer test was conducted. At trial, Mr. A completely denied the charge of drunk driving. Mr. A emphasized, “After an argument with my girlfriend, I was upset, so I drove to the parking lot, drank alcohol and fell asleep in the car. Even though I wanted to explain that I was not drunk and driving, the police were only interested in testing for breath alcohol. I presented a bottle of soju that I had finished drinking, but the police ignored this.” The court decided that it could not completely rule out the possibility that Mr. A had been drinking in the car after stopping near a gas station. The court stated the reason for the acquittal, saying, “The defendant was sleeping in the back seat at the time of discovery, and there was no one who witnessed the drunk driving.” The police officer who dispatched to the scene did not take pictures of the state of the soju bottle at the actual scene or leave any records about it. It is difficult to conclude that the defendant was drunk driving based on the evidence presented alone.” Attorney Song Jae-baek of Daeryun Law Firm said, “Among the evidence records in this case, there are no records that can be used to estimate the time and amount of Mr. A’s drinking. “There was no evidence,” he explained. “If we apply the Widmark formula, we cannot rule out the possibility that Mr. A’s blood alcohol concentration was in an elevated state at the time of the breathalyzer test. If we back-estimate his blood alcohol concentration through this, it cannot be concluded that he exceeded the punishment standard of 0.03% at the time of driving.” He added, “The investigative agency rejected this as evidence missing even though Mr. A himself retrieved the empty soju bottle he had consumed.” He added, “In accordance with Article 76 and Article 172, Paragraph 1 of the National Police Agency’s criminal investigation rules, the police officer should have made efforts to secure evidence, such as writing a live investigation report, so he could have been found not guilty because Mr. A’s claims were consistent.” Digital Content Team[View full article] “I parked and drank in the car”… The reason why the 40-year-old was found not guilty on drunk driving charges (link) 2026-05-14T01:16:26.553Z https://www.daeryunlaw.com/en/broadcast/5433 A man in his 70s who was summarily indicted on charges of forcibly molesting a co-worker was cleared of the charges after requesting a formal trial. According to the legal community on the 8th, the Seoul Central District Court found Mr. A, who was indicted on charges of forcible molestation, not guilty on the 12th of last month. Mr. A was indicted on charges of touching his body while talking to his co-worker, Mr. B, in May of last year. Mr. B claimed that Mr. A molested him by touching parts of his body several times while urging him to sign documents. However, Mr. A denied all charges. They claimed that the security post designated as the location of the molestation was too narrow for two people to enter at the same time, and that the conversation was captured on CCTV. The prosecution concluded that the charges were acceptable and summarily indicted Mr. A. The court then issued a summary order to impose a fine of 5 million won on Mr. A, but Mr. A objected and requested a formal trial. The court ruled that Mr. B's statement was inconsistent and therefore unreliable. This is because Mr. B said to the police that Mr. A stroked his buttocks, but later claimed in court that he molested him by touching various parts of his body, including his buttocks. The court also ruled that even if Mr. A may have touched a part of his body while asking Mr. B for a signature, the possibility that this was a routine action without the intention of forcible molestation cannot be ruled out, and that it cannot be proven that Mr. A had the intention of forcible molestation even by combining the transcript and CCTV footage. Mr. A's legal representative Kim Jong-seo, a lawyer at Daeryun Law Firm, said, “In a sex crime case, if the victim's statement is the only evidence, it must be confirmed that the statement is significantly credible or is credible through other circumstantial evidence.” Reporter Jeong Cheol-wook[View full article] Man in his 70s summarily indicted on charges of molesting a colleague...

According to the legal community on the 7th, the Incheon District Prosecutors' Office cleared Ms. A, a woman in her 40s, who was charged with violating the Telecommunications Business Act and aiding and abetting fraud in May. Ms. A used a mobile phone from January 2021 to August 2023. While working as a store manager at a dealership, he was accused of providing four mobile phones worth 7 million won to members of a voice phishing organization. The police conducted an investigation, determining that Mr. A had aided and abetted the crime by condoning the use of the cell phone despite knowing that it would be used for so-called ‘mobile phone gangster’ purposes. In response to this, Mr. A denied the charge, saying to the police, “I checked my ID according to the telecommunication company activation manual, and there was nothing particularly suspicious during the activation process.” He also claimed, “There are cases where expensive phones are sometimes used for business purposes,” in relation to the police investigation into the use of the latest, expensive terminals for business use. The prosecution, which forwarded the case, determined that Mr. A was not guilty. This is because the intention to collude between Mr. A and the voice phishing organization is not recognized, and the mobile phone dealer has no legal obligation to individually check the customer's activation purpose. Moreover, in the case of some mobile phones, it was confirmed that employees other than Mr. A had activated them. Based on the results of this investigation, the prosecution concluded that Mr. A was not aware of the crime. Attorney Park Jeong-ho of the Daeryun Law Firm, who represented Mr. A, explained, “If the intent of aiding and abetting cannot be proven to the extent of excluding reasonable doubt, it must be judged for the benefit of the defendant.” He added, “Mr. A only performed his duties in accordance with the telecommunication company activation manual, had no knowledge of the crime of cell phone thievery, and did not receive compensation, so it was recognized that there was no intent.” Reporter Seohyun Lee (sunshine@kyeonggi.com)[View full article] I sold a cell phone, but I aided and abetted a voice phishing crime?...

However, society is now asking the direction of the sword's point, whether the sword of disciplinary authority given for the original purpose of 'midnight' is really aimed at the public interest or whether it has degenerated into a means of control for the benefit of a specific group. According to Article 91 of the current Bar Act, the Bar Association autonomously carries out the entire process from request for disciplinary action to review and resolution, and the level of sanctions ranges from reprimand to permanent expulsion. Although it is formally notified to the Minister of Justice, institutional concerns are raised in that the actual authority is concentrated in the Bar Association, a private professional organization. The Bar Association's exclusive disciplinary authority is an unusual structure that runs counter to the principle of public responsibility compared to other professions. Doctors are subject to disciplinary action by the Doctors Disciplinary Committee under the Ministry of Health and Welfare, while accountants and tax accountants are subject to disciplinary action by administrative agencies such as the Financial Services Commission and the National Tax Service, respectively. In particular, it is in a contradictory structure in which private organizations themselves decide on the existence or non-existence of public qualifications, with only lawyers, and this has a logical flaw that undermines the general principle of the rule of law that ‘control over qualifications must be by public power.’ The problem is that these structural concerns are not just theoretical. The Korean Bar Association is a political organization led by a directly elected president, and there is an inherent risk that disciplinary power could be used as a means to suppress specific groups or differing opinions. In fact, the Bar Association actively exercised or announced its disciplinary authority in some cases, revealing the absence of an internal control mechanism. The symbolic incident in which this structural risk became a reality was the ‘Rotalk incident’. Based on its internal rules, the Korean Bar Association effectively forced a choice by imposing a fine of up to 3 million won on lawyers who use legal platforms. This was interpreted as a violation of internal regulations, but the media and civil society evaluated it as an abuse of disciplinary power beyond the scope of self-regulation and as an act of disrupting market order in competition in legitimate advertising and services. This issue is not limited to criticism within the legal community. This has already emerged as an important social agenda, with President Lee Jae-myung's pledge to establish an independent lawyer disciplinary body. Disciplinary action against lawyers is not simply a matter within the profession, but a public issue closely linked to constitutional values ​​such as freedom of expression, freedom to practice one's profession, and the public's right to know. Therefore, the improvement of the disciplinary structure must go beyond the level of internal control of the position and be approached as an issue of constitutional legitimacy and democratic responsibility surrounding public qualifications. Therefore, the current structure contains three fatal risks as follows: ① private organizations actually decide whether to deprive public qualifications, ② the criteria for that judgment are based on abstract concepts such as ‘maintaining dignity,’ ③ procedural transparency and external checks are insufficient. This means the possibility of arbitrary abuse of disciplinary power and This leads to the double danger of politicization of the organization. Now is the time to calmly seek institutional reform of the lawyer disciplinary system. It is necessary to disperse some of the disciplinary authority to independent external organizations or administrative agencies, have external personnel participate in the disciplinary committee, and comprehensive provisions such as ‘maintaining dignity’ be more clearly defined by law. Clarity of disciplinary grounds and procedures, predictability, and compliance with the principle of proportionality are most important. Advanced countries under the rule of law have already provided a clear answer to this. In the UK, the Legal Services Regulatory Agency (SRA) and the Bar Standards Board (BSB) are responsible for disciplinary action, and are clearly separated from the Bar Association. In the United States, the Supreme Court of each state also has disciplinary authority, and audits are conducted through independent investigative organizations. The American Bar Association (ABA) is only responsible for establishing codes of ethics and does not intervene in disciplinary action. This is the minimum institutional device to balance autonomy and fairness. Self-regulation is an important device for local organizations to maintain trust in a democratic society. However, the premise is fairness, transparency, and checks and responsibilities on authority. If a functional organization monopolizes the life and death rights of public officials and exercises that power arbitrarily, we end up tolerating “monitors who are not monitored” in the name of the law. If the Bar Association wants to be recognized as the authority of true autonomy, it must quickly step down from its position as a ‘monitor’ and show the decision to accept external checks.[View full article] [Contribution] Is the disciplinary right of the Bar Association under the name of ‘self-regulation’ okay as is?

Brokers providing personal rehabilitation consulting for debtors: “The risk to the debtor is high and it causes social harm.” “Get 90% forgiven through the personal rehabilitation system promoted by the government.” This is an advertising phrase that appears frequently on social media (SNS) such as YouTube and Instagram. Deceptive phrases that promise to reduce the loan burden, such as “Check the forgiveness amount even if you do not plan to revive immediately” or “How to reduce the loan amount by 90% through the government system,” are noticeable. Some advertisements even proudly state that they are the ‘National Debt Relief Support Center’ along with the Taegeuk symbol, the official logo of the Korean government. Thinking that it is a public institution, you go to the website through the link in the advertisement, and for some reason, this prompts you to consult a law firm. Recently, as the Lee Jae-myung administration's bad bank has emerged as a hot potato, personal rehabilitation advertisements are rampant on social media. We are actively promoting our service, saying we will provide ‘solution’ services not only to lawyers but also to those who are not qualified to represent personal rehabilitation. The problem is that solution advertisements that appear frequently recently encourage misuse of personal rehabilitation, claiming that they will ‘enable you to reduce any debt.’ This is a business that stimulates the curiosity of ‘Can I get rid of my debt?’ in a situation where the government is pursuing a bad bank policy of burning delinquent bonds en masse. The identities of those advertising solutions are diverse. Small and medium-sized law firms sometimes advertise directly, and sometimes loan brokers, loan companies, and illegal private finance companies are involved. Although each advertising entity is different, their goal is the same. The goal is to save money by increasing personal rehabilitation benefits. First, loan brokers and loan companies act as brokers. They lure debtors by offering solutions or consulting services. Brokers are responsible for teaching people how to meet personal rehabilitation standards and connecting them to lawyers they have collaborated with. Brokers receive fees from lawyers during this process. There are several problems with this solution sales practice. First of all, it may be illegal. It is a violation of the Attorney-at-Law Act for people without a lawyer's license to perform some debt settlement agency work and hand over cases to lawyers in exchange for a fee. Moreover, solutions using brokers also bring disadvantages to the debtor. Typically, the cost of hiring a personal rehabilitation lawyer is 2 to 5 million won. Of this, the broker takes about 20-30% as a commission. From the lawyer's perspective, he or she receives more money from the debtor because he or she has to pay a broker's fee. Above all, the consulting activities of solution brokers pose unexpected risks to the debtor. Brokers whisper that they will negotiate various conditions for the debtor and allow him/her to undergo debt restructuring. They encourage you to lie about how the loan money will be used or to hide some supporting documents. However, according to legal experts, even if you commit fraud after listening to your broker, there is a high possibility that you will be caught during the personal rehabilitation process. If such misconduct is discovered, the responsibility lies entirely with the debtor. Beyond the failure of personal rehabilitation, you can even be accused of deceiving the court. Jeong Il-woo, a responsible attorney at Daeryun Law Firm, said, “Recently, there has been a flood of incorrect information related to personal rehabilitation,” and “the safest way is for the debtor to directly seek out an insolvency lawyer and receive consultation.” In addition, solution sales that occur in the shadows are also harmful to our society. This is because it promotes moral hazard, which means ‘you don’t have to repay the loan.’ In addition, misuse of personal rehabilitation increases social costs. The purpose of the system, which should only be received by those who absolutely need it, is being polluted. Jeong-won Yoon, head of the Personal Rehabilitation and Bankruptcy Support Center at the Korea Legal Aid Corporation, said, “You should not use personal rehabilitation just because you do not want to repay the money right away,” and pointed out, “If personal rehabilitation that is not absolutely necessary increases, it eats up public resources and increases social costs.” Reporter Kim Tae-ho (teo@chosunbiz.com)[View full article] [Financial Focus] “Don’t pay off your debt”… As bad banks emerged, illegal personal rehabilitation sales continued on social media (click here) 2026-05-14T02:46:19.610Z https://www.daeryunlaw.com/en/broadcast/5421 The court ruled that a truck owner who is not the owner of the vehicle on paper is also a claimant if he or she has been transferred the right to claim damages from the truck company. On the 4th of last month, the Eastern Branch of the Busan District Court ruled in favor of some of the plaintiffs in a lawsuit for damages filed by two truck owners, including A, against the Korea Freight Truck Transport Association. Person A purchased a cargo truck in 2023 and assigned it to a transportation company, and after that, driver B took over driving the vehicle. He was in charge. Later, in October of the same year, Mr. B suffered an accident while driving when he collided with a cargo vehicle running in the next lane. Accordingly, the two people demanded that the National Trucking and Transport Association, which signed a mutual aid contract for the cargo vehicle in question, pay compensation, including repair costs. However, the lawsuit began when the association refused. The association acknowledged some of the negligence of the truck driver but argued that Mr. A's claim should be dismissed. This is because Mr. A is only the owner of the accident vehicle, and the owner of the car registration certificate is a transportation company, so he cannot claim damages. Mr. A countered that he has the right to claim because he received all claims for damages related to the traffic accident from the transportation company. The court ruled in Mr. A's favor. The court said, "The plaintiff is in the position of a claimant for property damage because he received a claim for damages from the transportation company that owns the vehicle. The accident occurred when the defendant's vehicle suddenly changed direction and did not turn on the turn signal during this process." He continued, "It is reasonable to assume that the defendant's driver is primarily responsible for the accident," adding, "The defendant has an obligation to compensate for damages, including repair costs for the plaintiff's vehicle and compensation to the driver." He added. Attorney Kim Nak-hyeong of Daeryun Law Firm, who represented Mr. A, explained, "The Association claimed the unfairness of the claim by citing a precedent that says, 'The owner of the vehicle, who was entrusted externally by the company that owns the vehicle, acted on behalf of the owner company, and the legal effect belongs to the owner company.'"

Law “You have the right to file a claim” (Shortcut) 2026-05-09T00:04:15.298Z https://www.daeryunlaw.com/en/broadcast/5419 The process of deciding to divorce is painful for everyone. The first question many people ask when considering divorce is, 'Which method should I choose between divorce by agreement or divorce by trial?' The type of divorce goes beyond simple procedural differences and varies depending on whether the parties agree or not and the degree of conflict. Therefore, if you are considering divorce, it is necessary to clearly understand the difference between the two systems. First, if an agreement on divorce is possible between the couple, divorce by agreement is the simplest and fastest method. Rather than examining the cause, such as the reason for the divorce between the parties, the court is closer to checking whether procedural requirements have been met. However, it is not an easy task to end with a consensus on divorce. If specific agreements such as alimony, property division, custody, and child support are not clarified, many cases lead to further disputes. Conversely, if one party does not agree to divorce, or if it is difficult to reach agreement on major issues such as custody and property division, the judicial divorce process must be initiated. For judicial divorce, there must be a civil law cause (e.g., spouse's misconduct, abandonment, grossly unfair treatment, etc.), and the burden of proof lies with the party who filed the lawsuit. This has the disadvantage of being time consuming and costly, but it is also a means of recovering legitimate rights, such as uncovering the other party's hidden assets or claiming compensation by acknowledging fault. In addition, there are many cases where disputes are resolved relatively quickly through mediation. .Divorce is a new starting point for a better life. Therefore, divorce methods and procedures must be carefully selected based on legal strategies and interests, not just emotions. In fact, there is an increasing number of cases where lawsuits are filed again over custody or property division after a divorce by mutual consent. This stems from making a hasty and emotional decision without sufficient legal advice at the time of divorce. If you are contemplating divorce, it is important to carefully consider the method that suits your situation rather than hastily deciding on the procedure. In this process, it may be helpful to consult expert advice to ensure objective perspectives and legal standards.[View full article] [Expert Contribution] How should I choose between divorce by agreement and divorce by trial?

According to the legal community on the 2nd, the first administrative department of the Gwangju District Court ruled in favor of the plaintiff in a lawsuit filed by a man in his 50s, Mr. A, in his 50s, against Goheung-gun, Jeollanam-do, to cancel the construction permit injunction on the 19th of last month. Mr. A submitted an application for a building permit to build a livestock farm to the county in 2023. He was in charge of prior review work in this regard. The county planning subcommittee conveyed its opinion to Mr. A that there were no special problems with the construction of the livestock farm. However, the committee suddenly rejected the motion, saying that an amicable solution was needed due to the series of complaints from nearby residents. Afterwards, the county also disallowed permission on the grounds of 'concerns about damage to the residential and agricultural environment of local residents due to environmental pollution'. Accordingly, Mr. A filed an objection, but it was dismissed, and he eventually filed an administrative lawsuit. During the trial, Mr. A submitted the application. It was argued that it was illegal to restrict construction based solely on collective complaints, even though sufficient review of the environmental pollution prevention measures listed had not been conducted. The court ruled in Mr. A's favor. The court said, "The defendant first presented the fact that the subcommittee's deliberation result was a rejection, and then abstractly presented the objections of neighboring village residents to the construction of a livestock house and the reasons under the national land planning law." It said, "According to the results of the deliberation, the defendant appears to have taken a disposition mainly based on civil complaints that have no basis in the law based on the results of the deliberation." It continued, "The livestock building is far enough away from the village, and the access road does not pass through the village, so the defendant “It appears that the claimed risk of damage is not likely to be significant,” he said. “The defendant does not appear to have sufficiently reviewed the feasibility of the preventive measures submitted by the plaintiff.” Attorney Kim Jun-seong of Daeryun Law Firm, who represented Mr. A, said, “According to the National Land Planning Act, even if there is a risk of environmental pollution due to development activities, development can be permitted if prevention is possible and attached as a condition of permission.” While Mr. A explained in detail specific evidence and preventive measures to prevent environmental pollution, “The court appears to have accepted Mr. A’s request because the military only vaguely repeated claims to the effect that there would be concerns about environmental pollution,” he explained.

According to the legal community on the 2nd, the Busan Yeonje Police Station decided not to forward Mr. A, in his 30s, who was booked on charges of violating the medical law in May. Mr. A has been running a skin care business since September of last year and was accused of performing skin treatments on customers using a device with a 0.2 mm long needle. Mr. A was investigated by the district office and police in February of this year when someone reported to the district office that “the store run by Mr. A is performing skin treatments that only medical professionals can perform and is advertising this on social media.” Under the current law, skin treatments are classified as medical practices, and practicing medicine without a license is punishable by up to 5 years in prison and a fine of up to 50 million won. In the police investigation, Mr. “It was concluded that it was not illegal,” he claimed. As a result of the investigation, the police also determined that the device used by Mr. A could not be determined to be medical, so it could not be considered that he used this device to practice medicine. Mr. A's legal representative, Attorney Son Yun-jeong of the Daeryun Law Firm, said, "Not only as a result of the district office crackdown, but also the public health center that applies the medical law did not conduct an on-site crackdown because they judged that the device used by Mr. A was not a medical device. Also, the same type of device as the device used by Mr. A is classified as a home skin care device and can be purchased by anyone online, and such data was submitted. “He was able to be cleared of charges due to insufficient evidence,” he explained.

Considering that the Constitutional Court's decision rate of unconstitutionality or non-constitutionality is only about 4.2% of all cases, this decision is even more noteworthy. The origin of the problem was Article 13 of the ‘Act on the Honorable Treatment and Support of Persons of National Merit, etc.’ (hereinafter referred to as the National Meritorious Persons Act), which contains information on the order of payment of compensation to the bereaved families of persons of national merit. This provision stipulates that when there are two or more survivors of the same rank and there is no agreement between the survivors, compensation is to be paid first to 'the person who mainly supported the person of merit.' However, if even this requirement is not met, compensation is paid to an ‘older person (elderly person)’ in accordance with Article 13, Paragraph 2, Item 3. This 'senior priority' clause was the key issue in the case. The client who was entrusted with the case was the second daughter of a person of national merit. Although she faithfully supported her father for many years, she was unable to reach an agreement with her other siblings about receiving compensation. It was difficult to objectively prove past support. In the end, the client was refused compensation according to the 'senior priority' rule and filed a lawsuit. However, the first trial result was a loss. Afterwards, the client came to see me and we went to the appeal trial together, but the claim was dismissed for the same reason. Believing that there was a problem with the provisions of the law itself, the author persuaded his client to file an appeal with the Supreme Court and request a review of the law's constitutionality. The Constitutional Court ruled that determining the recipient of compensation solely based on a coincidental circumstance such as 'age' violates the principle of equality. This makes it clear that it is against the concept of justice to not be paid compensation just because you are not an elder, even if you have fulfilled your actual duty of support. Due to the nature of constitutional trial cases, citation decisions are extremely rare, and even if a case is won, there are many cases in which there is no direct economic benefit. Nevertheless, the reason why I did not give up on this case until the end was because I believed that it would be an important opportunity to correct the unreasonable system of our society beyond the relief of individual rights. Of course, this decision is another beginning. We hope that this decision will be a turning point in presenting fair and just standards to all bereaved families who may find themselves in similar situations in the future.

(Shortcut) 2026-04-30T13:06:37.007Z https://www.daeryunlaw.com/en/broadcast/5410 [Interview] Attorney Bang In-tae, specializing in labor law at Daeryun Law Firm, Artificial intelligence (AI) and automation technology are rapidly changing the entire industry, from manufacturing to the service industry, but the laws and systems that should protect workers' rights are not keeping up with the pace of technological development. There are criticisms that workers are being left in a legal blind spot in the employment ecosystem transformed by AI. The restructuring of the labor market has already begun. According to the Korea Employment Information Service's 'Digital-based technological innovation and changes in human resource demand structure' report, 6 out of 10 jobs, including facilities and production, that are greatly affected by automation were analyzed to have a high possibility of technological substitution. Technological developments are threatening existing jobs and creating new employment forms. The problem is that the current labor law does not properly reflect these changes. Attorney Bang In-tae of Daeryun Law Firm said, "Our labor laws are still based on 'old-style jobs' and are unable to keep up with changes," and predicted, "As repetitive tasks are automated with AI technology, companies will process work through platforms, and the number of self-employed workers or short-term contract workers will increase further." He pointed out that “protection is insufficient.” The argument that the legal concept of ‘worker’ should be expanded as a solution to this is gaining strength. Attorney Bang added, "Voices are growing that platform workers and specially employed workers should be included in social security systems such as industrial accident insurance and unemployment benefits," and added, "Government discussions to strengthen workers' right to participate in management are also actively taking place to reduce inequality caused by technological change." Overseas countries, including the U.S., are introducing AI-related personnel regulations one after another. Overseas countries, including the U.S., which began digital transformation ahead of us, are already taking institutional responses. California this year restricted AI from replacing teachers, and New York introduced regulations on AI-based publications. States such as California, New York, and Illinois prohibit discrimination that may occur when companies use AI in decision-making, such as hiring or personnel evaluation. Attorney Bang In-tae said, "New York State has even introduced a system that requires companies to disclose if mass layoffs are linked to the introduction of AI," and added, "There is also a need for Korea to require companies to notify and disclose to stakeholders how AI has affected the process from hiring to firing." He continued, "The key to labor policy in the AI era is 'balance.'" He argued, “There is an urgent need to establish legal and institutional measures to protect workers’ rights without hindering technological innovation.” Specific measures included ▲establishing a retraining and job change support system for occupations with a high possibility of being replaced by AI ▲expanding livelihood support for the unemployed through revision of the Employment Insurance Act and mandating customized job training ▲reviewing the application of social insurance (employment/industrial accident) and minimum wage system for non-traditional employment types. In order to alleviate the burden on companies, he believed that it was necessary to review ▲converting the seniority-based wage system to one centered on job and performance ▲introducing an hourly wage system linked to the flexible work system. Lastly, he emphasized, "In the coming AI era, how successfully we protect workers' rights and reform into a sustainable wage system will determine national competitiveness."

The Masan branch of the Changwon District Court dismissed the plaintiff's claim in a lawsuit for damages filed by a man in his 30s, Mr. A, against the owner of the gas charging station, Mr. B, last May. Mr. A was seriously injured while visiting a gas charging station in May of last year. The accident occurred while he was pushing a charging station employee to move a vehicle that was not starting. At the time, the exit from the charging station was on a downhill road, and as the vehicle accelerated, it started heading towards the road, and Mr. A tried to block it late, but it was not enough. In the end, the vehicle stopped only after passing Mr. A, who had fallen, and collided with a bus traveling on the road. Mr. A claimed that the charging station was responsible. They said that they requested to move the vehicle despite knowing that it was a dangerous downhill terrain and did not take proper safety measures. Mr. B refuted this claim. The employee countered that he did not directly order the vehicle to move, and that the accident occurred due to Mr. A's voluntary judgment. The court found that Mr. B was not negligent. The court ruled, “There is room to believe that the charging station staff did not provide sufficient guidance on the slope or risk factors at the site, but the direct cause of the accident is that Mr. A was run over by the vehicle while trying to stop the accelerating vehicle with manpower.” He added, “It is difficult to say that the employee could have predicted the accident, and there is no causal relationship sufficient to recognize legal responsibility between the employee’s actions and the accident.” Attorney Jong-Hoon Han of Daeryun Law Firm, who represented Mr. B, said “For liability to compensate for damages to be recognized, there must be a sufficient connection between the wrongful act and the resulting damage,” he said. “By comprehensively considering the likelihood of an accident occurring, the level of employee negligence, and the severity of the damage, etc., the plaintiff’s claim could have been dismissed.” Digital Content Team[View full article] Vehicle stopped at a charging station...

According to the legal community on the 1st, A, a woman in her 60s, sold foreign currency twice on a second-hand trading platform in 2023 and 2024 and received about 18 million won. Shortly after, Ms. A received about 18 million won. This is because the money Mr. A received through the transaction was voice phishing damage. Mr. A claimed that he only received fair compensation for the transaction and did not participate in the crime, and that he also suffered damages when the debt extinction process began. On the 17th of last month, Mr. B and two others countered that Mr. A was also responsible for a large amount of money. “I did not closely look into the personal information of the trader and remitter while selling foreign currency,” he said, emphasizing that Mr. A was either intentional or grossly negligent in his illegal activities. The Seoul Western District Court, which heard the case, ruled in favor of Mr. A, saying, “It is difficult to say that there is a liability for return of unjust enrichment and compensation for damages to the defendants.” The court said, “It is difficult to say that there were any suspicious circumstances enough to create an obligation for the plaintiff to confirm the identity of the buyer of foreign currency, and that the money remitted was related to a crime.” It was ruled that the plaintiff cannot be held at fault for not knowing whether it was the source of the money.” In this regard, lawyer Park Jeong-gyu of Daeryun Law Firm, who represented Mr. A, said, “The unjust enrichment system considers the creditor’s acquisition to have a legal cause if there are no special circumstances such as malice or gross negligence in the process of receiving the money.” He added, “It is emphasized that he did not participate in the crime based on the fact that he did not separately check the other party’s personal information or the name of the depositor in the used transaction environment. “We were able to obtain a favorable ruling,” he explained.

As President Lee Jae-myung ordered the Fair Trade Commission (FTC) to increase its workforce immediately after taking office, attention is focused on expanding the role of the Fair Trade Commission. The background to this order is the accumulated suffering of small business owners. This is because the burden has increased as large platform companies such as e-commerce and delivery apps continue to impose excessive fees and unfair transaction practices. This is not the first time that voices for regulation surrounding online platforms have emerged. The Small Business Association and the People's Solidarity for Participatory Democracy have already been demanding the establishment of a fair trading order by demanding the enactment of the ‘Online Platform Fairness Act (hereinafter referred to as the Online Platform Act)’ since 2020. The ONPL Act contains regulations on abuse of market power, unfair trade, and monopoly issues by platform companies. Previously, President Lee also pledged to enact the ONPL Act, emphasizing that he would protect stores and prevent monopoly and abuse of monopolistic positions by large platforms at home and abroad. In fact, according to the Fair Trade Commission’s ‘2024 Statistical Yearbook’ last year, the number of cases handled by the Fair Trade Commission was a total of 2,496. Among these, there were 124 cases in which fines were imposed, and the total fine amount was 422.7 billion won. Looking at the types of legal violations, unfair trade practices accounted for the largest proportion at KRW 212.3 billion, followed by unfair collaborative practices (KRW 170.1 billion). Accordingly, it is expected that large-scale investigations related to platform unfair trade practices will continue. However, there is currently no law that directly applies to online platforms, so as long as the Fair Trade Act has the nature of a general law, it is expected to be governed by the Fair Trade Act until the ONPL Act is enacted. In general, the Fair Trade Commission can conduct necessary investigations ex officio when it determines that there is a suspicion of violating the provisions of the Fair Trade Act. In addition, anyone can report violations of the law, and reports can be submitted in a variety of ways, such as through the official website or by visiting the Fair Trade Commission's civil affairs office. Usually, when a violation of the law is discovered, a public official (examiner) is appointed to review it and an investigation is conducted. At the case investigation/examination stage, if necessary, ① the attendance and hearing of the opinions of the parties, stakeholders, or witnesses, ② the designation of an appraiser and commission of an appraisal, ③ the business operator, business organization, or executive/employee may be ordered to report on costs and management status and submit other necessary data or items. Here, the Fair Trade Commission's investigation is legally an administrative investigation and has the nature of a discretionary investigation, but in reality, it carries with it a certain degree of coercion. Therefore, in case of refusal or obstruction of the investigation, fines, enforcement fines, and criminal penalties may be imposed. The Fair Trade Commission's deliberation procedures are based on the principle of ex officio structure. The hearing is based on an oral hearing, and if necessary, a written hearing is conducted. Once the deliberation process for the case is completed, agreement and resolution procedures among the meeting members proceed. In addition, if you are dissatisfied with the Fair Trade Commission's disposition, you can go through procedures such as the right to request access to data, an objection, and an appeal. Attorney Jeong Woo-young of Daeryun Law Firm said, "If you are the subject of an investigation by the Fair Trade Commission due to unfair trade practices, etc., you should not arbitrarily delete or hide data. It is good to show cooperation in the investigation. You can receive assistance from a lawyer during the investigation process, so we recommend that you actively utilize it. In particular, Fair Trade Commission cases proceed similarly to criminal cases. “Due to the nature of fair trade-related law, it is a specialized and specialized area, so it is better to submit an opinion through a lawyer,” he advised. He continued, “If you are a reporter, you must secure data that can confirm the violation of the law.” He added, “It may be difficult to collect related data, so it is important to find a legal expert to proceed with the investigation and mediation process.” Gayoung Jin, lawissue reporter (news@lawissue.co.kr)[View full article] In the 'online platform era', regulations such as abuse of fees begin...

This is not a simple institutional problem, but the result of authoritarian thinking and structural closure underlying legal services in general.. I believe that we must dismantle this old structure and create a consumer-centered open legal market that realizes information equality..Looking back through history, power has always been maintained by controlling information.. In medieval Europe, the Bible was written only in Latin and its contents were unknown to commoners.. Information was power, and the clergy monopolized that power.. 15Gutenberg's popularization of printing press and translation of the Bible into native languages ​​was a decisive opportunity to break down that monopoly.. The liberation of information meant a shift in power, which led to the French Revolution and the Industrial Revolution., Furthermore, it led to the spread of democracy..The same goes for the law.. The law is a tool to protect the rights of the people, but if interpretation and access are monopolized by a specific class, the law becomes a means of domination.. The legal market, where access to information is blocked, is nothing more than a barrier to vested interests that reign over the rights of the people..One of the main channels through which people today can access legal services is ‘advertisement’all. Advertising is not just a commercial activity. It is a space of constitutional rights that allows lawyers to freely express their expertise and services and helps the public compare and evaluate them and make rational choices.. in other words, Advertising is a lawyer's freedom of expression and, It is a democratic device that simultaneously implements the people’s right to know..The lawyer market of the past was never an open market.. Advertising was considered taboo, and hiring a lawyer depended on informal routes such as transfers, brokers, and acquaintances.. Consumers do not receive sufficient information, I had to choose a lawyer based only on limited channels and reputation.. The resulting excessive costs and information gap were passed on to the people, and legal services became distant from the people..It has to change now.. Citizens have the right to choose a lawyer. And as a service provider, lawyers must be guaranteed the opportunity to freely publicize the work capabilities and expertise they provide.. In particular, advertising autonomy is urgently needed for small and new lawyers who lack capital and recognition.. They have their own special strengths, Locality and expertise, Advertising is the only way to appeal your philosophy and approach to the market.. If advertising is regulated, all expressions will be standardized.. As a result, consumers lose real choice in choosing the right lawyer for them, and lawyers are unable to communicate their differences to the market.. Ultimately, this is disadvantageous to consumers., It results in entrenching a non-competitive legal market structure..I can agree to some extent with the point that advertising should not be solely centered on capital.. If a specific advertising structure determines exposure and acceptance opportunities depending on financial power, this may cause information bias.. However, these concerns ‘Format and Structure’This is a problem that can be sufficiently improved through technical and policy adjustments.. That cannot be a justifiable reason to control advertising itself or suppress expression itself.. ‘Protect citizens from information’The attitude of restricting advertising under the pretext of isolating the public from information is in reality. This is a dangerous idea that assumes that legal consumers are unable to make their own decisions and underestimates the public's ability to make decisions.. Advertising regulations should always be minimal and start from the premise of freedom of expression and the right to know..These standards that threaten freedom of expression are still in effect in reality.. Recently, Daeryun Law Firm, to which the author belongs, was notified of an application for disciplinary action by the Korean Bar Association due to a statement posted on the company's website.. The part in question was the following vision declaration:.“Daeryun Law Firm's ultimate goal is to become the world's best law firm..”This sentence was merely a declaration that revealed the company's philosophy and goals.. There was no intention to promote a specific service., There was no purpose to induce acceptance.. Nevertheless ‘best’Disciplinary proceedings were initiated simply because the expression was included..Is this really an advertisement?? Is there any objective evidence that consumers are directly and specifically influenced by this sentence to the point of contacting a law firm?? If even sentences expressing the company's vision and direction are subject to censorship,, Lawyers can no longer speak freely. This is not regulation of advertising, but control of expression itself.. This promotes information asymmetry and, A distorted market has been created in which lawyers are selected based on personal connections, causing repeated opaque transactions such as brokerage.. This is the harm caused by a structure that seeks to maintain control..The means to fundamentally change this structure is the liberalization of advertising.. Through advertising, lawyers can transparently convey their philosophy and expertise, and the public can compare and choose for themselves.. This is the healthiest and most legal way to replace courtesy treatment and brokerage, and is the key to protecting consumers and improving transparency in the legal market..Information should be revealed, compared, and evaluated, not hidden.. Through advertising, lawyers can make their presence known to the public and citizens can independently choose the legal service that suits them.. This is the democratization of information and the core of consumer rights..Now is the time to open up the closed legal market.. Freedom of expression and freedom of information, There are ways to correct the capital bias structure while ensuring the right to know.. We need coordination for freedom, not regulation for regulation's sake.. That is true openness and the starting point of a legal market where democracy operates..

Mr. A signed a sales contract with Association B in 2015. However, he lost his qualification as the head of the household when he moved to his parents' home in 2022. Afterwards, in 2023, Union B filed a lawsuit against Mr. A demanding payment of approximately 20 million won in contributions, and Mr. A filed a counterclaim. This is because, as you go from being the head of the household to becoming a member of the household, you naturally lose your union membership status. In addition, he emphasized that he had no obligation to pay because he lost his union member status earlier than the date on which he decided to pay the contribution. The union countered that Mr. A was not entitled to file a lawsuit. This is based on the provision written in the contract document that ‘if a member loses his or her qualifications as a housing association member due to relevant laws and regulations, no civil or criminal objection will be raised.’ He then argued that Mr. A's lawsuit should be dismissed. The court ruled in Mr. A's favor. Regarding the sub-prosecution agreement, the court explained, “It is reasonable to believe that the union cannot raise an objection when the union revokes its membership,” and “It is difficult to view it as prohibiting Mr. A from claiming that he has lost his union membership.” Lawyer Wooyoung Jeong of Daeryun Law Firm, who represented Mr. A, said, “The moment Mr. A lost his status as the head of the household, he also lost his union membership and status.” “There was a benefit in seeking confirmation of the non-existence of union membership status,” he said.

According to the legal community on the 30th, the Seoul Western District Court ruled in favor of the plaintiff in the wage lawsuit filed by Mr. A, in his 30s, against distribution company B on the 30th of last month. Mr. A joined Company B in 2021 and started working, but after repeated non-payment of wages, he eventually expressed his intention to resign. However, he said. Even after leaving the company, the company did not pay about 43 million won in overdue wages and severance pay, and Mr. A eventually filed a lawsuit. Then, Company B insisted on a reduction of the amount claimed. This was because Mr. A had been absent without notice several times while working. The company presented company attendance records as the basis for this and claimed that Mr. A had been coming to the company intermittently for several months without a set work date. Accordingly, Mr. A said that his working location was irregular as he frequently worked outside at the time. He refuted this. He also emphasized that the company had given him wide discretion regarding the place of work, and that it was unfair to recognize attendance based solely on door records. The court sided with Mr. A. The court said, "The plaintiff's attendance record appears to be somewhat irregular, and the defendant has not reduced the plaintiff's salary despite the plaintiff's poor attendance performance," and added, "Even looking at the employment contract, it appears that the defendant has allowed the plaintiff to freely choose the type of work." It continued, "If the plaintiff is absent without notice, “If so, we should have reprimanded him, but we only had work-related contact,” he said, adding, “The plaintiff can be seen to have worked normally, and the company has an obligation to pay him wages accordingly.” Attorney Gwangdeok Kim of Daeryun Law Firm, which represented Mr. A in this case, said, “Company B claimed unauthorized absences on the grounds that there was no record of Mr. “We were able to obtain this ruling by emphasizing the fact that we never received warnings or disciplinary action,” he explained.

Law says, "Pay normal rates" (Shortcut) 2026-05-10T11:28:49.210Z https://www.daeryunlaw.com/en/broadcast/5398 Non-covered medical expenses for Oriental medicine were subject to actual cost medical insurance, but were excluded from the scope of compensation in October 2009 when the financial authorities and the insurance industry revised the 'Actual Cost Medical Insurance Standard Terms and Conditions' on the grounds that there were many differences in coverage between existing non-life insurance companies' products. Accordingly, we would like to increase the people's choice and accessibility to oriental medicine and further argue that insurance coverage for actual cost medical expenses is necessary in order for the people to receive quality oriental medicine without financial burden. In the National Assembly audits conducted in 2012, 2013, and 2015, it was repeatedly pointed out that actual cost medical insurance should be applied to uncompensated treatment items at oriental medicine clinics and hospitals, and the Anti-Corruption and Civil Rights Commission also issued a press release in July 2014 titled ‘Uncovered medical expenses for oriental medicine with a clear purpose of treatment should also be covered by actual cost medical insurance’, requesting improvement on this issue to the Ministry of Health and Welfare and the Financial Services Commission. It has been recommended. In Korea's medical care, 'oriental medicine' occupies a significant proportion along with western medicine. As of 2022, there are 15,124 oriental medicine medical institutions, accounting for 20.8% of all medical institutions, and 90 out of 231 public medical institutions nationwide have at least one oriental medicine department. In addition, according to a 2024 survey by the Ministry of Health and Welfare, 67.3% of people over the age of 19 have experience using oriental medicine, and 50% of outpatients and 43% of inpatients have experience using Western medicine clinics and hospitals for the same symptoms before receiving oriental medicine treatment. Despite some disparaging claims that it is 'traditional therapy for health promotion', the purpose of more than 90% of people using oriental medicine is 'treatment of disease' rather than health promotion or beauty, and a high level of satisfaction is recorded with the treatment effect. Despite the status and importance of oriental medicine, according to the provisions related to actual cost medical insurance revised in 2009, oriental medicine non-reimbursed treatment is excluded from coverage under actual cost medical insurance. As a result, medical consumers cannot receive actual cost medical insurance coverage even if they receive treatment that is not covered by oriental medicine, so even though they need to receive oriental medicine treatment, they are unable to properly receive oriental medicine treatment due to the burden of medical expenses, or even if they receive treatment, they have to pay the entire medical cost themselves. In addition, considering that Western treatment is covered more broadly than oriental medicine treatment, such as being subject to actual cost medical insurance and medical care benefits under the National Health Insurance Act when performed by a doctor even though the treatment is the same, there is a very big problem with the system that is designed to discriminate only against oriental medicine treatment without any justifiable reason. Due to the above actual cost medical insurance standard terms and conditions, medical consumers are essentially blocked from the opportunity to sign up for actual cost medical insurance for non-reimbursed oriental medicine treatments, thereby limiting their right to self-determination to choose medical institutions and medical methods, freedom of contract, right to choose medical care, and the right to health or health. When the state carries out legislative activities to restrict the fundamental rights of citizens, it must comply with the principle of prohibition of excess set forth in Article 37, Paragraph 2 of the Constitution, must not infringe on the essential content of fundamental rights, and even if fundamental rights are restricted, it must be limited to the extent of necessity. In particular, the above actual cost medical insurance provision not only excessively infringes on the freedom of contract by blocking medical consumers from signing up for actual cost medical insurance products that cover non-reimbursed oriental medicine medical services, but also does not fully and comprehensively cover medical expenses at all just because it is oriental medicine treatment, thus broadly infringing on an individual's right to choose medical care, right to access medical care, and the right to health or the right to health, raising the question of whether the principle of prohibition of excess is observed. Meanwhile, doctors and oriental medical doctors are both medical practitioners under Article 2, Paragraph 1 of the Medical Service Act, and are essentially the same group in that the rights and duties of doctors and oriental medical doctors as medical practitioners are equally defined throughout the Medical Service Act. However, the above actual cost medical insurance provision provides for insurance coverage in principle for Western medical treatment in general, including non-reimbursed treatment, especially manual therapy and extracorporeal shock wave therapy, which have a high potential for abuse and are currently problematic, while oriental medical treatment is excluded from all coverage regardless of whether it is for therapeutic purposes. In other words, it violates the Constitution because it violates the basic rights of medical consumers, such as their right to self-determination, right to choose medical care, right to health, freedom of contract, and right to equality. Expanding the public's choice by legitimately re-covering non-covered treatment that was excluded from the standard terms and conditions would be the only way to gain national consensus.[View full article] [Contribution] Non-coverage treatment of Oriental medicine should be covered by actual cost insurance to expand the public’s choice (link) 2026-05-06T13:50:07.046Z https://www.daeryunlaw.com/en/broadcast/5394 Daeryun Law Firm announced on the 27th that it will recruit Chief Attorney Kang Young-woo (35th Judicial Research and Training Institute) and strengthen its capabilities in criminal cases, including violent crimes. Attorney Kang started out as the head of the investigation department at Daegu Dalseo Police Station in 2006, and served as the 2nd investigation chief, the head of the intelligent crime investigation team, the head of the violent crime department at the Daegu Provincial Police Agency, the chief of Ulleung Police Station, the chief of Uiseong Police Station, and the chief of Daegu Southern Police Station. Lawyer Kang, who is well-known as an investigative expert, has worked in the police force for over 20 years and has led various violent crimes such as murder, rape, and theft, as well as thousands of traffic crime cases. In particular, the voice phishing team was established for the first time in the country and received a lot of attention for not only arresting suspects but also supporting victims' recovery. In addition, we have a deep understanding of cyber investigations and various economic crimes, such as the 2011 middle school student suicide case due to group bullying, which became the first sign of the seriousness of school violence, the 'Jo Hee-pal' multi-level fraud case worth about 4 trillion won, the unfair treatment of local mayors, and violations of the Public Official Election Act by city hall officials. Attorney Kang said, "We have decades of police experience. “At Daeryun, we will do our best to sincerely communicate with and impress our clients by considering them as family rather than a simple contractual relationship,” he said. “Attorney Kang has the expertise to match the rapidly changing investigative system, and is a talent who can demonstrate outstanding abilities in criminal cases that require an urgent response, especially violent crimes,” he said. “This recruitment will serve as an opportunity to further strengthen the capabilities of the Daeryun Detective Group.” Lawissue Reporter Jeon Yong-mo (sisalaw@lawissue.co.kr)[View full article] Roishu - Daeryun recruits lawyer Kang Young-woo, former chief of Daegu Southern Police Station (link) Law Leader - Daeryun Law Firm recruits lawyer Kang Young-woo, former chief of Daegu Southern Police Station (link) Yeongnam Ilbo - Daeryun Law Firm recruits former Daegu Nambu Chief Kang Young-woo...

After remitting about 3% of the down payment, the court claims to 'maintain the contract' The court said, "Defendants made the deposit unilaterally with the purpose of extinguishing the plaintiff's right to cancel the contract" The Supreme Court ruled that in a real estate sales contract, unilaterally remitting only part of the down payment without the seller's consent and attempting to continue the contract was not justified. According to the legal community on the 25th, the Second Division of the Supreme Court filed a lawsuit to confirm the absence of debt filed by A, a woman in her 40s, against B and his wife on the 1st of last month. The appellate court confirmed the original decision, which ruled in favor of the plaintiff. Mr. A signed a contract to sell the apartment he owns to Mr. B and his wife in 2020. Mr. B and his wife first remitted 30 million won as a down payment and promised to pay the balance the following year. A few days later, Mr. A announced his intention to terminate the contract to the real estate agency due to personal reasons. However, conflict arose when Mr. B and his wife suddenly transferred 10 million won to Mr. A. It has begun. Mr. A argued that unilaterally sending money regardless of his will cannot be considered fulfillment of the sales contract. In addition, he deposited 70 million won in accordance with the terms of the contract, which states that 'the seller may repay the deposit and cancel the contract until the buyer pays the balance,' and emphasized that the contract was legally terminated. However, Mr. B and his wife insisted that the contract for sale had already begun with their own transfer before the deposit was made, so they did not pay the deposit. They countered that cancellation of the contract due to repayment is impossible. The court of the first trial ruled in favor of Mr. B and his wife. The court said, “There is no evidence to suggest that there was a special clause in the contract not to begin performance of the balance before the payment date.” It said, “The defendants, who are the purchasers, should be considered to be able to begin performance of the balance even before the payment date of the balance.” However, the judgment of the second trial court was different. The appellate court said, “The defendants paid part of the balance immediately after learning of the possibility of the plaintiff canceling the contract.” “We paid, but that amount is only about 3% of the total contract deposit,” he said. “This appears to have been unilaterally deposited with the purpose of extinguishing the plaintiff’s right to cancel the contract, so it cannot be viewed as a legitimate provision of performance.” He added, “Therefore, the contract can be considered canceled at the time the notice of cancellation of the sales contract reached the defendants.” The Supreme Court also dismissed the appeal and upheld the original judgment. Attorney Choi Han-sik of Daeryun Law Firm, who has represented Mr. A since the appellate trial, explained, "If the seller also has a benefit due on the payment date of the balance of the real estate sales contract, this applies when there are special circumstances that prevent the debtor from commencing performance before the performance period." He added, "These special circumstances include the content of the obligation, the performance of the obligation, and acts that unfairly interfere with the other party's exercise of the right to release." He continued, "Mr. B and his wife only account for a very small portion of the total balance. He explained, “Only 10 million won was unilaterally deposited into the plaintiff’s account, and this can be seen as an act that violates the rules of good faith,” and “We were able to win the case by emphasizing that this act was aimed at interfering with Mr. A’s right to statutory discharge.” Shin Min-ji (sourminjee@ikbc.co.kr)[View full article] Small remittance despite knowing the possibility of contract cancellation...Supreme Court says it does not provide legal performance (link) 2026-05-11T05:01:13.052Z https://www.daeryunlaw.com/en/broadcast/5382 Meeting minutes containing sensitive information are registered in the system without setting ‘employee viewing restrictions’… After being left alone for 2 years, the second trial court said, "I was found not guilty because there was no intent... There was negligence in not setting a viewing limit." A teacher who was indicted and acquitted on charges of leaking a colleague's sensitive personal information lost a lawsuit for related damages. The court ruled that even if criminal punishment was avoided because intentionality was not acknowledged, damages should be compensated to the injured party if there was negligence in the leak. On the 29th of last month, the 1st Civil Division of the Busan District Court overturned the original trial ruling and ruled in favor of the plaintiff in the appeal for damages filed by A, a teacher in his 50s, against a school corporation and teacher B. In 2019, Mr. A had a meeting with the school for the purpose of protecting school rights. The minutes of the meeting were completed based on the interview at the time, and the minutes contained sensitive personal information about Mr. A. The problem began when Mr. B, who was the head teacher at the time, uploaded the minutes to the Education Administration Information System (NEIS) without setting a ‘restriction on employee viewing’. This is because other faculty members can now freely view the meeting minutes containing Mr. A’s personal information. It was found that this state of full disclosure had been maintained for two years. Accordingly, Mr. A filed a claim for mental damages against Mr. B and the school corporation on the grounds that his sensitive information was leaked to a third party. On the other hand, Mr. B countered that he was not aware of the viewing restriction function and had no intention of spreading Mr. A's information. He also emphasized that the information was already known to other faculty members and that the meeting minutes were not leaked because NEIS was discontinued in December 2019. The first trial court ruled in Mr. B's favor. The court said, “Mr. B recorded the meeting minutes in accordance with the regulations and registered them in the system, but it appears that he was unaware of the viewing restriction function and registered them with the default setting of ‘do not set’,” and added, “Considering that Mr. B was indicted on charges of violating the Personal Information Protection Act and was found not guilty, it is difficult to acknowledge the illegality.” However, the judgment of the second trial court was different. The appellate court overturned the original trial ruling, saying, “Mr. B knew that the meeting minutes were a matter that should be kept private, so he should have checked the ‘employee viewing restrictions’ section and set it so that employees could not view them.” The defendant’s acquittal was not recognized as intentional, so he was not subject to criminal punishment, and his negligence in not setting employee viewing restrictions was recognized, so he is responsible for compensating the plaintiff for damages.” Daeryun Jeong Woo-young, a law firm representing Mr. A, said The lawyer explained, “Under the Personal Information Protection Act, ‘leakage’ refers to any act of revealing personal information to an unknown person, and if there is negligence for damages, liability cannot be avoided.” He added, “We were able to overturn the lower court ruling by emphasizing that not all teachers were aware of Mr. A’s sensitive information and that Mr. B’s actions amounted to a violation of the duty of care at work.” Reporter Kim Jong-cheol (jckim99@sportsseoul.com)[View full article] Teacher who leaked sensitive information... “If there is negligence, damages must be compensated” (Shortcut) 2026-05-12T03:26:53.962Z https://www.daeryunlaw.com/en/broadcast/5381 A similar banner was hung in Yeoksam-dong, in front of the Raemian apartment complex in Gaepo-dong, Gangnam-gu, which is considered one of Seoul's representative wealthy villages. A banner accusing a spouse of having an affair was hung in front of the apartment complex. An expert who saw this expressed concern about defamation to Segye Ilbo on the 24th. According to various media outlets on this day, banners accusing adultery were reportedly hung in Gaepo-dong and Yeoksam-dong in Gangnam-gu, Seoul. The banner reads, ‘No. ○○○, ○○○-dong, who has two children and seduces a married man to run two houses. It reads, ‘Kim ○○, the adulteress at a bar who ruined someone’s family, be careful of the flower snake!’ Next, as if taking into account the possibility of being sued for defamation, certain dong/housing numbers and the endings of names are marked with a star (*) in the content. Also, a banner hung in front of a building in Yeoksam-dong reads, ‘A married man with two children acts as a bachelor, lives with an adulterous woman for three years, and is shameless and shameless with no remorse.’ Likewise, the name and workplace of the man on the Yeoksam-dong banner were mosaicized. In particular, the two banners even contain affectionate photos of a man and woman believed to be having an affair. The unidentified person holding the banner covered their eyes, but bystanders appear to be able to recognize the person involved. These banners were hung at the entrance to the apartment complex and in the lane where many vehicles pass by, causing controversy as not only nearby residents but also a citizen who saw the banner posted a photo on the Internet. Regarding this banner, lawyer Kim Dong-jin of Daeryun Law Firm expressed concern to Segye Ilbo on this day, saying, “It is a requirement for establishing defamation under Article 307 (1) of the Criminal Act, and specificity is an issue.” He said, “In the case of specificity, it is recognized as a direct statement, but if the general public can know who the person is talking about through indirect information, the requirement for specificity is satisfied.” He also said, “It is somewhat difficult to predict the establishment of guilt or innocence based on the content of the banner in question.” He continued, “The banner avoids specificity by refraining from mentioning the real name and listing the last digit of the residence number in question as *. Therefore, if the other party can be sufficiently identified with the number of apartments in question and the additional information revealed in addition to the given information, this constitutes specificity in defamation.” At the same time, he advised, “In the case of defamation when the facts are stated, punishment can be avoided if it is for the public interest according to the reasons for illegality under Article 310 of the Criminal Act.” “However, in this case, it is difficult to say that it was for the public interest, so Article 310 of the Criminal Act does not seem to apply.” Reporter Lee Dong-jun (blondie@segye.com)[View full article] ‘Gangnam Gaepo Raemian affair incident’… Expert concerns about “problematic issue” (link) 2026-05-13T02:08:25.111Z https://www.daeryunlaw.com/en/broadcast/5380 As the popularity of online games increases, the number of items and money transactions used within the game naturally increases. However, most game companies restrict cash transactions of game items, money, and accounts between users according to their terms and conditions. If caught, you may be subject to sanctions such as permanent account suspension. The reason game companies prevent the cashing of in-game assets is to avoid encouraging ‘speculative behavior.’ In particular, according to the Game Industry Act, game-related business operators must not allow or encourage gambling using games. This is because exchanging game money for cash induces excessive gambling and undermines a healthy gaming culture. As such, monetary transactions within online games are fraught with risk. Although transactions between individuals may not be illegal in themselves, they are likely to be subject to sanctions because they violate the game company's terms and conditions. In particular, caution is required as you may be punished for fraud if you make a profit through deception during the transaction process. In this regard, I will look at a case I was in charge of. The client, the suspect, was a user who enjoyed playing online RPG games and often sold game money to other users for cash. One day, the suspect made a deal with someone he met through an anonymous chat room. The other party transferred approximately 20 million won in cash to the suspect and received game money. However, the other party's game account was permanently suspended due to the game terms and conditions, which state that illegal acquisition of game money can result in sanctions such as account blocking. According to this policy, the other side, which had about 100 million won in game money and items tied up in the game, ended up making absurd demands on the suspect. He insisted on compensation in cash for 100 million won, the amount of game money tied up in his account. When the suspect refused to comply with the ridiculous demand, the other party eventually sued the suspect for fraud. To resolve the case, the first thing I did was check the game terms and conditions. According to the terms and conditions, the game company owns the cyber assets traded between the complainant and the suspect, so it was difficult to say that there was an objective transfer of value based on social norms. In addition, the complainant also knew that the use of game money could be suspended during cash transactions, so it could not be said that the suspect deceived the complainant. Thanks to the explanation of these legal aspects to the police, this case was successfully dismissed. Incidents related to virtual spaces such as games are constantly increasing. You may encounter unexpected disputes during the transaction process, but it may also happen that you do not receive legal protection. Therefore, users considering financial transactions within online games should be aware of the risks and make decisions based on sufficient information, and if they are already involved in a dispute, it is recommended that they seek out an expert who has handled many related cases.

A, a woman in her 30s who was sent to the prosecution on charges of using company money stolen by her husband for living expenses, was cleared of charges. On the 20th of last month, the Incheon District Prosecutors' Office decided not to indict Ms. A, who was sent to the prosecution on charges of embezzlement under the Aggravated Punishment for Specific Economic Crimes Act. Ms. A was accused of conspiring with her husband, Mr. B, to embezzle 700 million won in company funds over a period of 3 years and 6 months starting in April 2021. This case began when the company, which discovered Mr. B's embezzlement, filed a complaint against Mr. A. Mr. B registered his wife, Ms. A, as an employee of the company and had her receive a remittance of 130 million won as salary. Afterwards, Mr. B, who had been embezzling company money for over three years, could not handle it and committed suicide, and the embezzlement was revealed by the company while reviewing the accounting data. During the prosecution investigation, Mr. A completely denied the charges of embezzlement. Although she acknowledged that she had received part of the embezzlement, she claimed that she had no knowledge that her husband had embezzled company funds. In addition, Ms. A said, "My husband was entirely in charge of financial management, including salaries, and the amount remitted was not large, averaging about 3 million won per time," and explained, "All the money I received was used for living expenses." The prosecution reasoned that it was difficult to prove that Ms. A was aware of the embezzlement in advance based on the fact that she received money remittances every month. The charges were dismissed. Kim Dong-jin, a lawyer at Daeryun Law Firm who represented Mr. A, said, "In order to establish a common crime, the 'subjective requirement' of committing a crime together and the 'objective requirement' corresponding to the fact that it was committed must be met. Although it is true that a certain amount of money was transferred to Mr. A's account, Mr. A convincingly demonstrated that he had no knowledge of the source or purpose of the funds and was not involved in the process of using the money at all."

This is because the court judged that the crime could not be proven due to inconsistencies in the woman's statement. According to the legal community on the 24th, the Busan District Court recently declared A, in her 40s, not guilty, who was recently sent to trial on charges of forcible harassment. In April of last year, Mr. A was summarily indicted on charges of touching the shoulders and thighs of Ms. B, a teenager she met while drinking with an acquaintance, and was ordered to be summarily fined, but he objected and requested a formal trial. During the trial, Mr. A denied the charges, saying, “I never once revealed that Ms. B was a minor.” The court ruled that Mr. B’s statement was not credible and declared him not guilty. This is because key statements, such as where the person was seated and how he or she got to know Mr. A, were different between the investigative agency and the court, and the statements were inconsistent, with content that was not said by the investigative agency being newly mentioned in the court. The court also ruled that it was difficult to say that there was proof of a crime because the people who were present at the drinking party each gave different statements about whether or not A had physical contact with B. Jang Ho-cheol, an attorney at the Daeryun Law Firm who represented Mr. A, said, “In a sex crime case, the judge must leave a reasonable doubt beyond a reasonable doubt. “If we are not sure that the indictment is true, we must judge it in the defendant’s interest,” he said. “Mr. B kept changing his statement and even asked for settlement money with his acquaintances. By explaining these strange circumstances, we were able to get a not guilty verdict.” Busan reporter Jeong Cheol-wook[View full article] After drinking together, “I’m a minor”… A person in his 40s was found not guilty on charges of forced harassment (link) 2026-05-13T05:43:51.197Z https://www.daeryunlaw.com/en/broadcast/5374 The head of a multi-level sales organization, who was sent on charges of receiving investment money by recommending coin investment through an internet shopping mall, was cleared of charges. According to the legal community on the 23rd, the Jeonju District Prosecutors' Office decided not to indict A, a woman in her 50s, on charges of violating the Act on Regulation of Quasi-Receipt Activities on the 12th of last month. Person A ran a multi-level sales organization in March 2021 and received tens of millions in coin investment from victim B. In the process, Ms. A received 36 million won by promising to return the entire investment upon request when Ms. B complained about the burden of her financial situation. However, Ms. B expressed her intention to withdraw due to her husband's opposition, and when the return of the promised investment continued to be delayed, she sued them. Ms. A denied the charge, saying that the promise she made with Ms. B was not a guarantee of the investment but a guide to refunding the product. The shopping mall in question provides coins as free gifts when purchasing products. It was a payment system, but he claimed that he never recommended direct investment in coins. He said that he was also a victim who lost about 300 million won, and that he had never operated by promising principal guarantee to an unspecified number of people. The prosecution ruled that Mr. A was not guilty. In order to establish a quasi-receipt act, a 'business' agreement to guarantee the principal amount must be made to an unspecified number of people, and the 'return' mentioned by Mr. A is when the investment is withdrawn within a month to a specific person who complains of difficult circumstances. I thought the intention was to return the principal. Attorney Gwang-Woo Lee of Daeryun Law Firm, who represented Mr. A, explained, "For a crime of quasi-receipt to be committed, the key is to conduct business with an unspecified number of people," adding, "We argued that this case was only a personal promise taking into account the special circumstances of one complainant and cannot be considered a business activity as defined by the law, and this led to a non-indictment."

The Tongyeong branch of the Changwon District Prosecutors' Office on the 26th of last month decided not to indict Mr. A, in his 50s, who was transferred on charges of violating the law on the regulation of fraud and similar receiving activities Mr. A was accused of opening an anonymous chat room with an acquaintance last year and then inviting Mr. B and others to invest in stocks, promising to guarantee principal and generate high profits. The investment they received was confirmed to be over 100 million won. The victims filed a criminal complaint, claiming that only a portion of the profits were paid at the beginning of the investment, and that they did not receive the principal or the profits back thereafter. He also emphasized that Mr. A and others committed the crime by using the so-called ‘turnaround’ method of using their investment funds as profits from other investors. However, Mr. A denied the charges. He said that he only lent the account based on the words of an acquaintance, and like other victims, he had not heard anything about specific investment details or profit structure. The prosecution ruled that there were no charges. The prosecution explained the reason for non-indictment by saying, “Coins are products with very high price fluctuations, and considerable discretion is granted to the operator when purchasing or selling an item, unless specifically specified,” and “It is difficult to admit fraud charges considering various circumstances, such as the fact that the complainants also appear to have had no knowledge of specific investment items, the fact that Mr. A immediately transferred most of the money received from them to an acquaintance, and the fact that the complainants received the profits for a considerable period of time.” Mr. A's legal representative Attorney Lee Il-kwon of Daeryun Law Firm said, "In this case, Mr. A can also be seen as a victim. He believed in the words of a close acquaintance and provided investment funds, and he simply complied with all of the acquaintance's demands in the hope of receiving the proceeds." He added, "For a quasi-receipt act to be established, there must be an act of raising funds in the name of investments, etc. from an unspecified number of people, and the accusers were acquaintances such as seniors and juniors at school. They were also not invited to the chat room. “It was a structure that was inaccessible to humans,” he said. “Also, when considering repetition, continuity, and business nature, there was no evidence to comprehensively admit illegal activities, such as business registration, advertising, or investment briefings to raise funds, so the case was acquitted.” Digital Content Team[View full article] A person in his 50s was sent on charges of ‘high-profit coin investment bait’ fraud… Prosecution: “Not indicted” (Shortcut) 2026-05-14T05:45:20.737Z https://www.daeryunlaw.com/en/broadcast/5369 Daeryun Lee Il-hyeong, lawyer, "After the introduction of the CSO reporting system, interest in pharmaceutical companies has increased" "Establishing a sound business method - upgrading the compliance system...an essential task for sustainable development" 1. Introduction Rebates are a long-standing issue in the pharmaceutical industry, but the industry's attention is being focused again due to the government's strengthened regulations, including the recent introduction of the CSO reporting system. In this contribution, we systematically examine the historical evolution of rebate-related regulations and analyze the latest regulatory trends and future prospects. 2. Concept and characteristics of rebates A pharmaceutical rebate refers to a payment in cash or in kind by a pharmaceutical company or wholesaler to medical personnel, medical institution founders, or pharmacy operators to promote drug sales. The main forms include ▲supporting expenses for hospitals and clinics to attend overseas training and seminars ▲free supply of medicines to open hospitals and clinics ▲provision of in-kind items such as office equipment. The characteristic that distinguishes rebates in the pharmaceutical field from other industries is the strength of their regulation. Rebates are common not only in the pharmaceutical industry but also in other industries, and are subject to a certain level of regulation under the Fair Trade Act. However, due to its special nature in the pharmaceutical field, a multi-layered and strengthened regulatory system is applied, including the Fair Trade Act, Pharmaceutical Affairs Act, Medical Services Act, and drug price-related laws. 3. History of regulatory evolution: Step-by-step flow of strengthening Looking at the history of rebate-related regulations, we can see a clear trend in which the type and intensity of regulations have been continuously strengthened along with the growth of the pharmaceutical market. ▶ Stage 1: Early regulations centered on the Fair Trade Act (until the early 2000s) In the early days, regulations were mainly implemented by applying the Fair Trade Act to prohibit acts of enticing competitors' customers to do business with them by providing unfair or excessive profits in light of normal practices. ▶ Step 2: Introduction of the rebate-drug price reduction linkage system (2009) From August 1, 2009, the Ministry of Health and Welfare will implement the 'rebate-drug price reduction linkage system' as a means to eliminate the bubble in drug prices caused by rebates and eradicate rebates. However, this system was widely criticized as being unreasonable in administration, and, crucially, as cases of courts canceling dispositions continued to emerge, the system experienced ups and downs in the form of changes along the way. Nevertheless, similar systems continue to be implemented to this day. ▶ Step 3: Introduction of the rebate dual punishment system (2010) As rebates were not eradicated, the government introduced the ‘rebate dual punishment system’ in May 2010. The dual punishment system for rebates refers to ‘a system that punishes both those who provide and those who receive illegal rebates in the trade of drugs and medical devices’ (refer to the Ministry of Health and Welfare’s pharmaceutical policy website). The legislative history of the introduction of the dual punishment system is as follows. • July 1992: Prohibition of ‘providing prizes related to pharmaceutical transactions’ • December 2008: Prohibition of illegal rebates in the pharmaceutical sector • May 2010: Introduction of a dual punishment system that punishes kickback recipients ▶ Stage 4: Strengthening of administrative disposition standards (2011-2013) ∙ June 2011: Ministry of Health and Welfare Ordinance No. 62 In the revised 「Medical Related Administrative Disposition Rules」, standards for sanctions are established based on the results of criminal dispositions (refer to Seoul Administrative Court's 2017 Guhap 3526 ruling on December 14, 2017) ∙ April 2013: Additional strengthening of standards for administrative dispositions (suspension of qualifications and work suspension) (refer to the Ministry of Health and Welfare Pharmaceutical Policy website) ▶ Step 5: Implementation of the CSO reporting system (2023) On April 18, 2023, Article 47 of the Pharmaceutical Affairs Act was further revised, and the CSO reporting system, which includes provisions such as 'prohibiting entrustment of pharmaceutical sales promotion work to persons other than pharmaceutical sales promotion operators,' came into full effect. 4. Latest regulatory trends: Joint crackdowns become routine. What is noteworthy in the latest regulatory trends is that government management is becoming more tight. Currently, kickback investigations are not simply conducted by investigative agencies such as the police or prosecutors, but have the following characteristics. ▲Joint investigation: Generalization of joint investigation between related agencies such as prosecutors, police, Health Insurance Review & Assessment Service (HIRA), National Health Insurance Corporation, Ministry of Health and Welfare, etc. ▲Multi-faceted detection: Expanding the method of capturing rebate circumstances during the tax investigation process and handing over the case to related agencies ▲All-round surveillance: Establishment of a system for detecting rebates through various channels such as insider tip-offs 5. Future outlook and conclusion If we summarize the history of regulatory changes above, The government's consistent position regarding rebates focuses on 'strengthening regulations', and it seems very unlikely that this trend will be reversed in the future. Therefore, although it may be a bit cliché, pharmaceutical companies are likely to face greater difficulties if they do not fundamentally improve their constitution beyond simply responding one-time whenever an issue arises. Establishment of a sound business method that does not rely on rebates and advancement of the compliance system are emerging as essential tasks for the sustainable development of the pharmaceutical industry. Next, we plan to cover it in more depth, including a summary of punishment cases.[View full article] [Contribution] History of rebate-related regulatory changes and latest regulatory trends (link) 2026-05-13T14:50:37.946Z https://www.daeryunlaw.com/en/broadcast/5368 Based on precedents of controversy over clause validity after contract termination 3There is a need to reach a balanced agreement from the beginning when all requirements are met. This is a scene we often see in franchise contract disputes.. This is a case where, after the contract is terminated, the franchise operator simply changes the sign at the existing business location and resumes business in a similar business or opens an independent store in a nearby area.. At this time, the franchise headquarters "Violated the non-competition clause in the contract."He said he is taking legal action., Affiliate store operators "The contract is over, what's the problem?"They fight back. At the center of the conflict 'Non-competition clause'This is in place. Is this clause valid even after the contract ends?? By what standard does the court judge?? Non-competition clause, Is the contract valid even after termination? Act on Fairness of Franchise Business Transactions(below 'Franchise Business Act') 6article 10Ho prohibits franchise operators from engaging in the same business as the franchisor during the period of the franchise contract.. This is to protect the operating profits of the franchise headquarters and maintain order in the franchise business.. There is similar content in the standard restaurant franchise agreement established by the Fair Trade Commission.. This is a clause that states that during the contract period, the franchisee cannot engage in the same business directly or through a third party without permission from the franchisor..The problem is after the contract ends.. Provisions prohibiting competition for a certain period of time even after the contract is terminated or terminated are constitutionally guaranteed. 'freedom of career choice'may directly collide with. Accordingly, the court applies fairly strict standards to the validity of the non-compete clause after termination of the contract.. Among the lower courts "Even if the franchise operator sets a non-competition period in accordance with the agreement with the franchisor, the type of franchise business, The role and proportion of franchise headquarters in the business operation process, After termination of the contract, the validity of the agreement must be determined based on whether there are interests of the franchise that are valuable enough to be protected by a non-competition agreement, taking into account all circumstances, such as the risk of trade secrets being leaked by the franchise operator or the possibility of misappropriation of the existing commercial area.. In addition, the person claiming it has the burden of proving all the circumstances that can recognize the validity of the above non-competition agreement."There is a ruling that said(2021year 7month 7Busan District Court 2020Gahap46673 judgment). The court's general position is that in order for a ban on competition to be recognized as valid, the following three conditions must be met:.first, There must be a legitimate interest for the franchisor to protect.. If the headquarters simply provided the right to use a trademark or general operating guidelines, such information is in the public domain and cannot be considered a level of benefit that justifies a ban on competition.. On the other hand, differentiated recipes, Independent marketing strategy, If educational materials that are trade secrets are passed on, the value of protection is recognized.. In this regard, Daegu District Court(2022me329254, 2023year 5month 10sentencing)The industry in which franchise operators are subject to a non-competition obligation is sweet and sour pork., Jjajangmyeon, In Saan, a widely known food sales business such as Jjambbong, restaurant business using such menus cannot be seen as being based on the franchisor's original ideas or know-how., It has been determined that the information provided by the franchisor to the franchisee according to the franchise agreement is not known to competitors and therefore cannot be considered a trade secret worthy of legal protection..second, The period, region, and scope of industry subject to competition ban must be reasonable.. generally 1period of less than a year, Existing store radius 1~3㎞ area within, Restrictions within the same industry are customarily permitted.. Beyond this, nationwide, 3more than a year, If it is set to encompass a wide range of industries, the court is likely to deny its effectiveness.. Suwon District Court(2023Gahap18730, 2024year 12month 18sentencing)After the franchise agreement ends 1Concerning the contract clause prohibiting management, investment or advice in the same industry in the name of oneself or a family member in any region of the country for one year. "The terms and conditions are unfair and invalid because they broadly restrict franchisees’ freedom of occupation."I decided.third, Whether compensation was provided to the franchise operator is also an important factor.. If a certain amount of compensation is paid in exchange for restricting business for a certain period after the termination of the franchise agreement, or if a structure is in place to compensate for the franchisee's losses, the legitimacy of the prohibition of competition is further strengthened.. Non-competition clauses must be carefully reviewed before concluding a contract. In light of these standards, franchise operators need to closely review the non-competition clause in the contract before concluding a contract.. In particular, if post-termination restrictions are included, you should check in advance whether it will conflict with the business model or industry you envision in the future.. simply "It’s irrelevant because the contract is over."It is dangerous to make a judgment like this., This may lead to civil liability such as penalties or compensation for damages..It is also undesirable for franchisors to establish unreasonably broad and long-term bans on competition.. Excessive restrictions may not only be legally invalid, but may also have a negative impact on brand image.. Damaging the trust relationship with franchise operators, There is a high risk of causing unnecessary disputes.. The non-competition clause depends on the characteristics and level of know-how of the relevant franchise business., It must be set within a reasonable range by comprehensively considering the franchise business type, etc.. The non-compete clause is an important element that constitutes the essence of a franchise business.. If a franchise operator accumulates various know-how while doing business based on the systematic support and brand value of the headquarters, and uses this as is to start a similar business after the contract ends, it will be a huge loss to the headquarters.. This goes beyond simple freedom of business and acts as a serious problem that can undermine the order of the entire franchise contract..At the same time, this does not justify unconditional bans and broad restrictions.. The effect of the non-competition clause is 'rationality'class 'righteousness'It operates on two axes:, The judgment always depends on the facts of each individual case.. The important thing is that both parties are fully aware of their respective rights and obligations at the time of entering into a contract and then agree to fair and balanced terms.. Furthermore, it is also necessary to receive assistance from a legal expert as a preventive measure before a dispute occurs..Considering that franchise business is structured based on long-term trust and cooperation, non-competition clauses should be understood not as simple restrictions but as a device for the sustainability of partnerships and a fair competitive order.. We hope that both franchisors and franchise operators will create a more transparent and sound franchise business culture based on this awareness..

According to the legal community on the 20th, the Seoul Central District Prosecutors' Office announced that it had decided not to indict Mr. A, a man in his 40s who was sent on fraud charges on the 22nd of last month. Mr. A, who had purchased and operated a building since 2016, sold it to Mr. B, an acquaintance, in 2023. At that time, Mr. A to Mr. B. A condition was put forward to take over the debt for the return of 2.1 billion won in jeonse deposit, and Mr. B also accepted this, and the transaction was concluded. However, 7 months after purchasing the building, Mr. B applied for personal rehabilitation, and the investigation began when he was unable to pay the jeonse deposit to the tenants. The tenants made Mr. A sign a contract by reducing the senior deposit at the time of the jeonse rent contract and swindled the deposit, turning the building into a 'can jeonse'. He claimed that he sold it to Mr. B at a low price. Although it is true that a mistake was made in the process of notifying the senior deposit, Mr. A denied the charge, saying that the brokerage real estate agent was also negligent in not clarifying the relevant amount and that there was no intent to defraud him. Regarding the charge of jeonse fraud, he said, "Mr. B personally showed me his salary statement at the time and the bank loan was obtained normally, so I could not doubt his financial ability," and claimed, "If Mr. B's financial condition had not been good, he would not have sold the building." The prosecution accused Mr. A of “There was negligence in reducing the senior deposit, but considering that Mr. A had sufficient cash assets to prepare for the return of the deposit and had a high level of income when he owned the property, it is difficult to conclude that it was intentional defrauding.” Attorney Park Seong-yoon of Daeryun Law Firm, who represented Mr. A, said, “In a general lease relationship, it cannot be said that there is an obligation to notify the existence of a senior lien right,” and “In this case, Mr. B has a property other than Mr. A’s building. He explained, "We achieved revival by purchasing additional buildings for a long time, and Mr. A actively explained to the tenants that there was no intention to deceive them at the time of signing the contract, which led to a good result."

According to the legal community on the 19th, the Ulsan District Prosecutor's Office decided not to indict Mr. A, a 40-year-old who was accused of fraud and child abuse in May. Mr. A has been deceiving his student B by pretending to share the academy's shares for about four years since November 2019. He is accused of failing to pay wages after entrusting him with tasks such as lecturing, driving a car, and cleaning the academy. There is also a charge of child abuse. When Mr. B was a high school student, he took him to a drinking party and encouraged him to drink. Mr. A denied the charges, saying that it was Mr. B who first expressed his desire to work as an academy instructor. “At the time, it was difficult to hire Mr. B right away, so we encouraged him to earn credits through the credit bank system until he was 25, and during that period, we trained him as an instructor.” Regarding the child abuse charge, he said, "I heard that Mr. B often drank alcohol when he was in high school, so I just said that I would buy him alcohol if that was the case." The prosecution dismissed the charge. In the case of 'non-payment of wages,' it was determined that there was a prior agreement between the two. It was judged that Mr. He said, “It is difficult to say that it was an expression to deceive the victim.” Regarding the child abuse charge, he also judged, “If you consider the statements of other students who drank together at the time, it does not appear that it was a forced drinking party because only Mr. “We were able to obtain acquittal by comprehensively explaining the relationship, salary system, and foundation of trust,” he explained.

The Ulsan District Court announced on the 19th that it had acquitted Mr. A, in his 70s, who was indicted on charges of malfeasance, etc. on the 15th of last month. While working at a gas station run by Mr. B for about four years starting in May, he was accused of not selling oil and issuing false cash receipts worth about 10 million won. The cash receipt was issued to the business operated by Mr. A's son. Mr. A denied the charges. He claimed that he actually filled his wife's vehicle with gas and only issued it in bulk. At the same time, Mr. A emphasized that he had never personally used the customer's gas money. On the other hand, Mr. B argued that there was no record of actual oil sales on the date that Mr. A issued the cash receipt. The court found Mr. A not guilty. This is because it was judged that there was insufficient evidence to conclude that Mr. A had issued false cash receipts. The court explained, “Even if the time when Mr. A issued the cash receipt and the sales records in the gas station system are not completely consistent, we cannot rule out the possibility that Mr. A actually filled the gas, and it cannot be seen as intentional or seeking profit.” In addition, “Mr. A’s son is a tax-exempt business operator and is not subject to value-added tax refund or deduction,” and added, “There is not much reason for Mr. A to take the risk of issuing a cash receipt to his son’s business.” Acting as Mr. A’s legal representative, Attorney Lee Il-kwon of Daeryun Law Firm said, “For the issuance of a cash receipt itself to constitute a crime of professional breach of trust, there must be clear property gain and damage to others,” and added, “We were able to obtain an acquittal by explaining in detail the specific procedures for the issuance method and whether there was actual damage.” Reporter Park Jae-gwan (paksunbi@fnnews.com)[View full article] Selling oil to my son's business... 70-year-old not guilty for issuing false cash receipts (link) 2026-05-09T12:31:08.265Z https://www.daeryunlaw.com/en/broadcast/5358 Introduction Under the current law, bicycles are classified as automobiles, so unless a separate bicycle path is installed, bicycles must be driven on the road. Therefore, when attempting to cross a regular crosswalk on a bicycle, you must get off the bicycle and walk while dragging it. However, because these points are not properly observed, accidents occur frequently. If a traffic accident occurs while crossing a crosswalk on a bicycle, will the cyclist be protected as a pedestrian? We would like to look at the criteria for judging pedestrians through this related incident.2. The standard for determining whether a cyclist can be classified as a pedestrian. First, let's look at the legal issues in a case involving a violation of the Special Act on Traffic Accidents (causing injuries) that I handled in the past. In this case, the defendant, while turning right, hit a cyclist in his 70s who was crossing the crosswalk at a green pedestrian signal, causing 14 weeks of injuries. Normally, if an accident occurs while riding a bicycle, it is treated as a vehicle-to-vehicle accident, but in this case, the prosecutor recognized the victim as a pedestrian, not a car, and prosecuted him. The law on which it was based was Article 13-2, Paragraph 4, No. 1 of the Road Traffic Act (Taoist Act). This provision contains an exception: ‘Children, the elderly, and the physically disabled may ride on the sidewalk if they are driving a bicycle.’ B. The prosecutor at issue argued that a guilty verdict should be made, citing the exception clause. To explain this, a traffic accident involving a child riding a bicycle while walking on a crosswalk was presented as an example. In addition, it was emphasized that there are many cases in which similar cases were punished for violating the Special Act on Traffic Accidents (Seoul Northern District Court 2018 Goyak 877, Uijeongbu District Court 2019 Godan 2891 ruling, etc.). In addition, a precedent stating that children riding bicycles need to be protected in the same way as pedestrians was cited as a reason (Seoul Southern District Court 2024 Gohap 247 ruling). If some rulings have ruled that children on bicycles should be recognized as pedestrians and protected, the meaning is that there is no reason why the elderly and the disabled should not also be considered pedestrians. In addition, the concepts of ‘sidewalk’ and ‘crosswalk’ also became the main basis. The prosecution raised its voice and said that sidewalks include crosswalks. Therefore, in accordance with Article 13-2, Paragraph 4, Item 1 of the Taoist Act, children, elderly people, etc. who cross the crosswalk by bicycle should be regarded as pedestrians. Summary of Decision The first trial court dismissed the indictment, ruling that the victim could not be considered a pedestrian on the crosswalk pursuant to Article 27 (1) and Article 13-2 (6) of the Taoist Act because the accident occurred while he was crossing the crosswalk while riding a bicycle. In particular, since the law distinguishes between sidewalks and crosswalks, it was held that it cannot be interpreted to mean that children and the elderly can ride bicycles on crosswalks. In the case of general sidewalks, bicycles are allowed to ride slowly and stop temporarily as long as they do not interfere with pedestrian traffic. On the other hand, crosswalks are completely separate from the concept of sidewalks because they require people to get off their bicycles. The judgment of the second trial court was no different. The second trial upheld the original judgment, finding that there was no mistake in misunderstanding the legal principles claimed by the prosecutors. Commentary The prosecution argued that children are protected in the same way as pedestrians, and that there is no reason to treat children and the elderly differently. However, interpreting a victim who crossed a crosswalk while riding a bicycle as a pedestrian simply because the victim is an elderly person is unacceptable as it violates the principle of prohibiting inference and expansion of interpretation, which is a derivative principle of the legal principle of criminal law, which is a major principle of criminal law. In addition, ‘sidewalk’, commonly called sidewalk, is an abbreviation for pedestrian road and is a road used for the passage of pedestrians. Therefore, it can be said that its nature is different from a ‘crosswalk’, which is a pedestrian facility installed on the road to allow pedestrians to cross safely. Therefore, the legal principles based on the prosecution could not be applied to this case. In this way, if a traffic accident occurs while crossing a crosswalk while riding a bicycle, the cyclist cannot be protected as a pedestrian. Also, in this case, the actions of the perpetrator in the case do not fall under the 12 gross negligence provisions of the Special Act on Traffic Accidents, so if an agreement is reached with the victim, the indictment can be dismissed.[View full article] Law Leader - [Column] Traffic accident while crossing a crosswalk while riding a bicycle...

However, in order for fraud to be established, it must be clearly proven that the debtor did not have the intention or ability to fulfill the obligation from the beginning. It is difficult to be recognized as a fraud simply by not paying back the money, and there is also a risk of being counter-indicted for making a false accusation. In the same case, the first action you can take is to send a certificate of contents. This mainly contains the statement, "If the debt is not met within a certain period of time, legal action will be taken, so let's resolve it amicably before then." Proof of contents puts considerable psychological pressure on the other party, so there are many cases where the problem is resolved at this stage even if a lawsuit is not filed. Nevertheless, if the other party does not pay the debt, you must prepare for a lawsuit. The idea is to file a civil lawsuit, obtain a favorable ruling, and begin compulsory execution procedures. The most important step in this process is to accurately identify the debtor's enforceable assets. If assets are not identified or are unclear, you can check the details of assets such as real estate, deposits, security deposits, salaries, etc. by requesting property specification or property inquiry through the court. However, the possibility that the other party intentionally conceals the property or transfers it to a third party cannot be ruled out. In this case, safety measures must be put in place by applying for preservation measures such as provisional seizure and injunction in advance. So, if the creditor has already embezzled the property in the name of a third party, is there no way? In this case, a possible solution is a 'creditor cancellation lawsuit'. The creditor's previous actions can be invalidated and the relevant property returned to the debtor's name. In particular, Article 404 of the Civil Code guarantees the 'creditor's right of subrogation' so that a creditor can exercise the debtor's rights on behalf of the debtor. In some cases, this right can be a more effective and faster method of collecting claims than general compulsory execution. Let's take a case I actually handled as an example. The client was a creditor who lent Company A about 1 billion won. The problem here was that Company A did not have property that could be executed. Company A had established Company B to acquire Company C and had handed over a large amount of funds. On the other hand, Company C owned golf course land worth 50 billion won on Jeju Island. Company C was ultimately acquired by Company A through Company B, but because Company C was a legally separate corporation from Company A, it was not easy for the client to directly touch Company C's assets. At this time, the author used the legal principle of 'creditor's right of subrogation'. If company A gave money to company B, and company B lent money to company C, the client, who is company A's creditor, is considered to be able to subrogate company A's creditor's right of subrogation, that is, 'company A's right to provisionally seize property owned by company C on behalf of company B, the debtor.' Although there was some trial and error due to the lack of precedent at the time, the court eventually made a decision to cite provisional seizure of Company C's golf course site, and the bond was fully recovered. Legal procedures and securing evidence should be prioritized over simple emotional response in bond recovery. It is important to remember that if you move outside the legal boundaries out of fear of not receiving money, you may face greater disadvantages in the future. Our Civil Act and Civil Procedure Act provide a variety of rights relief methods, but each system has different requirements and application methods, and there are also deadlines such as statutes of limitations and filing periods. Therefore, it is important to determine the appropriate means for each individual case and apply it in a timely manner, and it is most necessary to receive professional legal assistance at an early stage.

I hope that starting with this ruling, the two values ​​will find a balance.” On the 18th, Mr. A, an employee of Daeryun Law Firm, and lawyer Da-eun Kim said this. The Seoul Central District Court recently ruled that the terms and conditions of the accommodation platform Nol Universe (Yanolja), which stipulates that refunds cannot be made more than 10 minutes after completing a reservation for accommodation products, are unfair and therefore invalid. Mr. A was the plaintiff and Attorney Kim acted as the representative and brought out this ruling. The story is as follows. Mr. A, who was in charge of business trips in Daeryun, reserved accommodation through Yanolja. However, the schedule was changed and I announced my intention to cancel my reservation two hours later, but Yanolja informed me that a refund was not possible. The reason was that if you do not cancel within 10 minutes after completing the reservation, a cancellation fee equivalent to 100% of the reservation deposit will be charged according to the regulations. Accordingly, Daeryun decided to file a lawsuit to return the unfair profits. This is to raise issues about terms and conditions that infringe consumer rights and receive legal judgment. The E-Commerce Act guarantees consumers a 7-day cancellation period, but some industries, such as lodging and aviation, customarily view exceptions without making specific judgments for each case, so they believe that only consumers are bearing the brunt of the damage. During the lawsuit, Yanolja argued that mail order brokers are not subject to the relevant provisions of the E-Commerce Act and therefore do not have to be responsible for refunding fees. However, Attorney Kim countered that Yanolja went beyond being an intermediary and actually engaged in active sales activities as a seller. To prove this, Attorney Kim went through the process of reserving and canceling products from Yanolja several times. At the same time, if you reserve a room at the published rate, you can cancel without a fee until the actual stay, but we confirmed that a full refund is not possible for the product in question, even though the difference is less than 20,000 won than the published rate. Based on this, the trial emphasized that it was significantly unreasonable in light of general common sense. As a result of the trial, the court ruled that Yanolja was a mail order seller or a ‘mail order intermediary who is a mail order seller.’ In addition, the refund policy was deemed invalid as it was unfavorable to the customer and constituted an unfair term, and the full refund was ordered to be paid to Mr. A. Daeryun's side said that if only the status of an intermediary is recognized as in existing precedents, it results in evading responsibility for various business activities, and it appears that the court sympathized with the problem of this unreasonable structure. Attorney Kim said, "This ruling does not mean that all terms and conditions that are converted to non-refundable after a certain period of time are considered invalid. However, the prevailing perception has been that even if a problem is raised with similar terms and conditions, the possibility of winning is small, but this ruling has confirmed the possibility of redress for consumers' rights." Daeryun plans to file a class action lawsuit on behalf of consumers who have suffered damage due to Yanolja's terms and conditions. Currently, criminal complaints, accusations, and civil lawsuits are being filed on behalf of victims regarding the leak of SKT's personal information.

Advisor Ahn graduated from Masan High School in Gyeongnam and the Department of Trade at Seoul National University, and received a master's degree in economics from the University of Ottawa in Canada and a doctorate in public administration from the Catholic University of Korea. After passing the civil service examination in 1989 and entering public service, Advisor Ahn worked at the Economic Planning Board and the Ministry of Planning and Budget, and built his career as a budget expert by being dispatched to the International Bank for Reconstruction and Development (IBRD) in the U.S. In addition, after the launch of the Ministry of Strategy and Finance in 2008, he held key positions such as the head of the Ministry of Land, Transport and Maritime Affairs, budget system, and general budget management. In particular, during the period when the Korean economy was experiencing difficulties due to the global financial crisis, he oversaw the preparation of the supplementary budget as the head of the budget system department. Afterwards, he held major positions such as the Ministry of National Defense's Planning and Budget Officer and the Ministry of Strategy and Finance's spokesperson, and then rose to the position of Director of the Budget Office and Second Vice Minister, and in 2021, he was selected as Senior Secretary to the President for Economic Affairs.

The ruling at the time reflected social criticism of the courtesy of military officials, distrust of the judicial system, and the demands of the times to ensure integrity. However, as the Supreme Court itself stated, whether a legal act violates social order must be judged based on the circumstances of the time and social norms at the time the legal act was performed. The Republic of Korea today is in a clearly different legal and social environment than in 2015. The institutional foundation, including the revision of the Public Official Ethics Act and the enactment of the Anti-Graft and Corruption Act, has already been established, and the monitoring and control of courtesy to all officials has ensured institutional effectiveness. The public's sensitivity to the law has improved dramatically, so the common belief that the judgment of judicial institutions will be distorted simply because there is a success reward is losing its persuasiveness. Rather, legally allowing success conservatism and regulating it transparently may be a way to increase trust in the judiciary. The Supreme Court was concerned that criminal success compensation could distort judicial justice as a price for the outcome, but this is an interpretation that confuses the nature of the contract with public ethics. Justice is realized through the design and implementation of systems, and is not damaged by the act of receiving compensation itself. Success fees already exist informally in practice, and it is in line with the reality of the legal market to foster them and manage them under transparent contracts. Recently, even within the Korean Bar Association and bar associations, the perception of the complete ban on criminal success compensation is a measure that is divorced from reality is spreading. The Korean Bar Association has actually been operating a standard contract based on the premise of criminal success compensation, and many lawyers are evaluating that it is possible to operate realistic cases through this. This should be read as a discussion of institutional improvement that goes beyond the restoration of freedom of contract and reflects the structural reality of legal services. The lack of institutional consistency regarding criminal compensation is also felt in practical settings. The people do not want to entrust their fate to a public defender who receives an allowance of 300,000 won, like in a movie scene. Just as there is a line in the drama, “The money you should never save in life is lawyer’s fees,” there is a growing awareness that the right to defense cannot be fully exercised with only low allowances and limited assistance. This reveals the structural limitations of the public defense system and symbolically shows why a result-oriented private contract structure should function as an option. Ideals that ignore reality do not gain sympathy. We must implement justice in institutional reality. Criminal success compensation is a device that effectively guarantees the ‘right to receive assistance from a lawyer’, a fundamental right under the Constitution. The high deposit is an absolute barrier to exercising the right to defense, and the success fee is the only realistic structure that can compensate for this. Today's criminal justice stands on two axes: not only the integrity of judicial institutions but also the guarantee of the people's actual right to defense. The public interest role of lawyers must be performed fairly regardless of the outcome, but the logic that receiving reasonable compensation based on performance is against social order is no longer convincing. Rather, the institutionalization of criminal success compensation is the only institutional device that provides real options to the public and allows lawyers to provide more responsible assistance. In order to escape from a structure where one has no choice but to choose low-quality defense due to the burden of down payment, the legal validity of success fee must now be reexamined from the beginning. Park Dong-il, CEO of Daeryun Law Firm, said, "Criminal success compensation is not a contract to buy justice. It is an institutional means that citizens can choose to achieve justice. Under the conditions of fair contracts, transparent standards, and strict enforcement, criminal success compensation should not be a regression in judicial justice, but rather a restoration of public rights and the direction of practical judicial reform demanded by the times."

According to the legal community on the 17th, the Busan District Court ruled on the 15th of last month that Mr. A, a worker in his 30s who was a food company worker, lost the plaintiff's lawsuit against CEO B. In 2023, while working at a food factory, Mr. A suffered an accident in which his finger was caught in a vegetable grinder and cut off. Accordingly, Mr. A claimed that Mr. B was forcing him to work. The lawsuit was filed claiming that Mr. B was responsible for violating the duty of care by not providing safety or job training. However, Mr. B refuted Mr. A's claim, saying that sufficient training on how to use the grinder and safety rules had been provided. He also claimed that Mr. A suffered an accident while arbitrarily trying to remove food residue without turning off the power of the machine. The court said, "If you look at the instructions for using the machine, if the grinder stops working due to overload, you must turn it off and solve the problem. “This information was attached to the front of the shredder, so the workers were fully aware of the contents,” he said. He ruled in favor of Mr. B, saying, “The defendant made the workers, including the plaintiff, aware of the usage rules every morning, and the plaintiff also operated the machine according to the manual until the accident.” He also stated the reason for sentencing, saying, “The accident appears to have occurred while the plaintiff was working in violation of the safety rules.” Attorney Jong-Hoon Han of Daeryun Law Firm, who represented Mr. B, said “Mr. A has been using the shredder without any problems for over a year immediately after joining the company, and none of the other workers who have been in charge of the same work have suffered any injuries,” he explained. “Since the accident occurred due to working against work instructions, it should be seen that there was no intention or negligence on the part of Mr. B.” Jeong Eui-jin (jej88@ikbc.co.kr)[View full article] A worker whose finger was amputated while working filed a lawsuit against the representative, but lost the case (link) 2026-05-07T22:18:42.441Z https://www.daeryunlaw.com/en/broadcast/5350 A man accused of sexually assaulting and committing adultery with a woman in his 30s on several occasions received a reduced sentence in the appeals court for a man accused of sexually assaulting and molesting his intellectually disabled cousin. The Busan High Court sentenced Mr. The original trial was overturned and he was sentenced to three years in prison and five years of probation. He was also ordered to receive probation and attend 40 hours of sexual violence treatment classes. Mr. A was accused of forcibly molesting and committing adultery with his cousin B, who has a brain lesion, several times from 2019 to 2023. The first trial court sentenced Mr. A to four years in prison. The court explained, “The crime is more serious because it was a crime against a disabled victim,” and “The victim must have also suffered considerable pain.” Mr. A filed an appeal on the grounds of unfair sentencing. The reason was that although it was true that he had sexual intercourse with Mr. B, it was not forced. In addition, Mr. A's side also emphasized that Mr. B expressed his intention not to be punished during the appeal process. The appeals court accepted Mr. A's argument. The court explained, “The defendant has no history of criminal punishment and appears to have made efforts to reach an amicable resolution, such as depositing consolation money for the victim.” He added, “The victim also actively expressed that he does not wish to punish the defendant.” Daeryun Law Firm, the legal representative of Mr. A, said, “We actually explained the friendly relationship between the two and emphasized that this should be taken into account,” adding, “We can bring about a lenient result by explaining favorable factors, such as the possibility of Mr. A’s rehabilitation, from various angles.” “There was,” he explained.

YES24 stated that “there was no personal information leakage” immediately after becoming aware of the ransomware attack on the 9th, but the seriousness of the matter was revealed when the Personal Information Protection Committee detected abnormal member information inquiry circumstances and began an investigation. This incident is not limited to a simple hacking incident. Repeated personal information leaks raise fundamental questions about the actual responsibility of major domestic companies for personal information protection and whether the institutional response system is functioning properly. In particular, both SK Telecom and YES24 had received government-run ISMS (Information Security Management System) or ISMS-P (Integrated Certification for Personal Information Protection) certification. ISMS-P is a system that examines and certifies that a company has certain managerial and technical protection measures in place. However, this system does not evaluate whether a hacking incident occurred or whether the company fulfilled its actual responsibilities after the incident. The damage relief system and practical measures to prevent recurrence are unrelated to the validity of certification. As a result, as long as the requirements are met, the certification is maintained. The problem is that this certification is easily abused by the company's logic of immunity after the accident, saying, “We were operating a system that was certified by the government.” Certification for prevention and strengthening responsibility is actually used as a tool for ‘fulfilling formal responsibility’ when an accident occurs. The certification system is functioning differently from its original intent. If we are relying on a system that neither prevents accidents nor strengthens responsibility, citizens will inevitably end up thinking, “National certification does not protect me.” The system exists, but its effectiveness is weak, and the problem is even more serious in that it is a structure that allows companies to avoid responsibility even after an accident occurs. Overseas are different. A U.S. federal court ordered Israel's NSO Group to pay approximately $167 million in punitive damages in a case involving unauthorized infringement of WhatsApp users' devices. US telecommunications company T-Mobile also paid a multi-million dollar class action settlement after a large-scale personal information leak. The law and system are structured to actually hold companies accountable. On the other hand, Korea is still limited to mild punishment. This is because administrative fines, corrective orders, and formal supervision are all that are involved. In civil lawsuits, the burden of proof is excessively placed on the victim, and the level of compensation is far from reality. A more serious problem is that some media outlets and large law firms are spreading the logic that "claiming compensation for personal information leaks is of no use," creating an atmosphere that causes citizens to give up exercising their rights. In order to crack this structure, Daeryun Law Firm is pursuing class action lawsuits against large corporations for personal information leaks. This decision is by no means a favorable choice if viewed solely from the profit logic of the legal market. However, since its establishment, Daeryun has placed the reason for the existence of legal services not on ‘profit’ but on ‘practical realization of citizens’ rights.’ This class action lawsuit is also an extension of that. Daeryun dispersed the legal market centered on the metropolitan area to a regional basis and established a nationwide branch office so that all citizens can receive high-quality legal services. We partnered with large law firms in the U.S. and Japan to incorporate advanced legal systems in Korea, and introduced a customer service system (AS system) that allows for customer satisfaction surveys, replacement of lawyers, and even refunds. This SK Telecom class action lawsuit is also an exercise to prove that such a structural experiment is feasible in reality. There is no reason why the personal information of Korean citizens should be less important than that of American or European citizens. What is needed now is the introduction of a punitive damages system, strengthening the effectiveness of the class action system, and establishing a legal foundation that can lead to actual corporate responsibility. The court must also present clear standards and a strong message so that companies accept personal information protection as the ‘essence of management’ rather than an ‘optional’. This lawsuit is not just a case asking for the legal responsibility of one company. This should be the starting point for laws and systems to officially declare that personal information is a fundamental right under the Constitution, not subject to technical management. Personal information is a valuable asset. The rights of the people should never be given away at a cheap price.[View full article] Law Leader - [Contribution] National certification has become a corporate impunity, a law is needed for ‘real responsibility’ (link) Korea Law Daily - [Contribution] National certification has become a corporate impunity, a law is needed for ‘true responsibility’ (link) 2026-05-12T11:03:07.061Z https://www.daeryunlaw.com/en/broadcast/5345 The court ruled that if a loan was made under a stolen name, the financial company that did not properly verify identity was responsible. On the 15th of last month, the Western Branch of the Busan District Court ruled that the plaintiff lost in a lawsuit filed by a credit card company against Mr. A, a man in his 60s, on the 15th of last month on the 15th of last month. He collapsed while working and was taken to the hospital, but did not fully regain consciousness and was diagnosed with severe disability. Afterwards, the children began managing Mr. A's cell phone for industrial accident insurance processing, but a problem arose when one of the children received an unauthorized loan of about 35 million won in Mr. A's name. The child issued a card and received a loan in Mr. A's name, and when this fact was discovered, he wrote an IOU to repay the loan to Mr. A and his wife. However, the card company gave Mr. A a loan. A reminder was sent to repay the loan. Even if the child's identity was stolen, the loan amount was transferred to an account in Mr. A's name after an identity verification process through a mobile phone, so Mr. A should be regarded as a loan contract pursuant to Article 7, Paragraph 2, Item 2 of the Framework Act on Electronic Transactions. Accordingly, Mr. A's side emphasized that Mr. A had been unable to communicate long before the loan contract was executed, and that the deposited loan money was also immediately transferred to the child's account. The court ruled in Mr. A's favor. The court said, “A contract is established by the agreement of the parties, but considering the defendant’s state of consciousness at the time of the loan, it is recognized that the defendant’s identity was stolen, so the contract was not established.” “Even if Mr. A and his wife allowed their children to use mobile phones, it cannot be seen that they agreed to proceed with the identity verification process or even accepted the results arising from it.” It continued, “Authentication through mobile phones is not a complete means of ensuring reliability and stability,” and “The plaintiff properly fulfilled its obligation to verify identity.” He added, “It is reasonable to say that it was not implemented.” Attorney Son Yun-jeong of Daeryun Law Firm, who represented Mr. A, explained, “If a financial institution shifts responsibility for a financial accident to the customer just because it has gone through a formal non-face-to-face real name verification, it could lead to an unfair result of reducing the duty of care regarding identity verification for non-face-to-face transactions.” Digital Content Team[View full article] A loan taken out with stolen identity and a demand for repayment...

A court ruled that a hospital that caused side effects by misadministering medication to a patient in violation of the medical staff's duty of care must bear responsibility for damages to the patient. On the 28th of last month, the Pyeongtaek branch of the Suwon District Court ruled in favor of patient A in the lawsuit filed by patient A against hospital B, and ruled that hospital B should pay 40 million won. Person A, who was diagnosed with cerebral hemorrhage in October last year and was admitted to hospital B, was in poor condition. He improved and was discharged from the hospital, where he was prescribed antibiotics. Afterwards, Mr. A took the medicine according to the hospital's instructions, but his health rapidly deteriorated and he suffered serious side effects such as delirium and decreased consciousness. Mr. A, who was eventually re-hospitalized, learned that Hospital B had overprescribed antibiotics to him and filed a lawsuit for damages. The dose of medication prescribed by the hospital at the time was found to be seven times the maximum allowable amount. Mr. A explained the background for filing the lawsuit, saying, "We did not agree on how much compensation Hospital B would pay if treatment was needed in the future." The court acknowledged Hospital B's liability for damages on the basis that medical staff have a duty of care to prescribe medication with appropriate usage and dosage. Attorney Lee Il-hyung of Daeryun Law Firm, the patient's legal representative, said, "The patient took antibiotics for a day at the time of prescription. “I thought it strange that I had to take 7 pills, so I checked again, but the medical staff violated their duty of care and explanation and confirmed that there was no problem,” he said.

These are people who are over 60 years old and come to see me saying, “I can no longer live with my spouse.” The reasons for deciding to divorce only after the children have all grown up are varied, such as the spouse's continuous cheating, domestic violence and verbal abuse, extreme pressure to save money, and the breakdown of the marriage due to conflict between the mother and father. However, in most cases, they have endured for a long time to protect their families. Recently, not only celebrities and famous people, but also ordinary couples often choose to divorce after reaching their twilight years to live their own lives by separating from their spouses. 'Graduation marriage' is a legal term. It is not a concept, but maintaining a legal marriage relationship under mutual agreement between the couple, and living each other's lives without interfering with each other's lives, literally 'graduating from married life'. Divorce is presented as an alternative to divorce, which inevitably involves a process of battle and defense, but an accurate understanding of this is necessary because it does not usually require division of property or claims for alimony like divorce, which is a legal procedure. Even if a spouse has been a housewife all her life and has only done housework, if she proceeds with a twilight divorce, both spouses can cooperate to achieve divorce. The right to claim property division for joint property is recognized, and an average of 50% of the property can be divided depending on the degree of contribution to property formation. In particular, if the other party has the right to receive a pension, according to Article 45 of the Civil Service Pension Act and Article 64 of the National Pension Act, if a person who has been married for more than 5 years divorces, he or she can claim an amount divided equally between the pension amount corresponding to the marriage period. This can be decided differently during the divorce process through negotiation and trial, so in old age when income decreases after divorce. It can serve as a living aid. In principle, the subject of property division corresponds to property formed through joint efforts during the marriage period. However, even in the case of unique property inherited by a spouse, if he or she contributed to the maintenance or increase of the property, it is advantageous to divide the property according to the degree of contribution. The right to claim alimony is the right to claim compensation for mental suffering suffered by one spouse due to the illegal acts of the other spouse responsible for the breakdown of the marriage. In Article 840 of the Civil Code, the spouse's misconduct, It stipulates six types of judicial grounds for divorce, including malicious abandonment and other serious reasons that make it difficult to continue the marriage, and alimony can be claimed in a divorce lawsuit or mediation by alleging the tort of the at-fault spouse. However, in the case of a graduate marriage, unlike the property division or claim for alimony upon divorce, since the couple maintains a legal marriage relationship, if the couple has agreed on the division of property at the time of the divorce, this is merely an agreement between the parties as a property contract during the marriage. Therefore, if details are not specified, written in ambiguous language, or not notarized, it can become the spark of another dispute in the future. If you live separately during the period of graduation and eventually get divorced, the period of marriage itself may not be recognized as the actual period of marriage. Conversely, the spouse who took advantage of the fact that the legal marriage was maintained may claim alimony by claiming that the other party violated the duty of chastity, and may be placed at a disadvantage in future divorce lawsuits. In addition, since you may become a defendant in an adultery lawsuit after dating someone who graduated from marriage, you should first think carefully about the disputes that result from graduating from marriage. Although the couple can no longer live together due to an insurmountable conflict, there may be various reasons that third parties are not aware of that prevent them from legally getting divorced. However, careful attention is needed to ensure that graduation is a happy marriage and that it does not become a means for one spouse with an economic advantage to escape.[View full article] [Monday Column] Divorce and divorce, what is your choice? (Shortcut) 2026-05-14T06:30:34.650Z https://www.daeryunlaw.com/en/broadcast/5340 This year, 119 companies left their positions mid-term. With more than a year left in office, the risk of lawsuits has risen due to the revision of the Commercial Act. Small and medium-sized companies may face an environment where reappointment is difficult as compensation is not high. It was found that an outside director resigned mid-term at one of the 10 KOSDAQ listed companies this year. Most of them resigned from their positions as outside directors with more than one year remaining in their term due to personal reasons. As discussions on amending the Commercial Act to expand the scope of director loyalty obligations from companies to shareholders are in full swing, there are concerns both inside and outside the legal community that a “starvation” of outside directors may occur in the future. If the revision of the Commercial Act becomes a reality, outside directors may avoid taking on the role of outside directors as the burden of judicial risk increases. According to electronic disclosure on the 15th, there are 119 KOSDAQ-listed companies where outside directors resigned this year with one year remaining in their term of office. Considering that there are a total of 1,791 KOSDAQ listed companies, in one out of 10 companies, an outside director resigned from his position without completing his term. In particular, many of them resigned from their positions as outside directors within a month or two of being appointed. According to Article 382 of the Commercial Act, an outside director is a director who is not engaged in the management of the company (a director who handles and executes daily business at a company, etc.). △The largest shareholder, his or her spouse, lineal ascendants, and descendants △Directors, auditors, and executive officers who have been engaged in the company's management within the past two years △Directors, auditors, and executive officers of the company's parent company or subsidiary, etc. cannot be appointed. The purpose is to prevent the arbitrary management and tyranny of the major shareholder in advance by allowing external personnel unrelated to the largest shareholder to participate in the board of directors. Depending on the size of the company's assets, etc., it must be more than one-fourth (three or more) of the total number of directors, but it must be a majority of the total number of directors. If this is violated, a fine of up to 50 million won will be imposed. The problem is that, with the number of outside directors retiring during their term, especially at KOSDAQ listed companies, discussions are underway to amend the Commercial Act to expand the scope of directors' loyalty obligations from the company to shareholders. Experts believe that if the commercial law amendment passes the National Assembly, the judicial risk of outside directors may increase. This is because shareholders can file civil and criminal lawsuits against outside directors regarding matters resolved by the board of directors, including mergers, personal and material divisions, and new stock listings. Choi Seok-gyu, an attorney at Dongin Law Firm, analyzed, "If the commercial law amendment is passed through the plenary session of the National Assembly, sound companies will not face a significant burden, but companies with weak financial structures may face the risk of increased lawsuits." He added, “The amendment to the Commercial Act is a structure that allows (shareholders) to file lawsuits directly against internal and external directors,” and added, “As there is no need to increase risk (on one’s own) in a situation where the remuneration is not high, it is unlikely to be easy to find outside directors in the future.” Under commercial law, even if an outside director causes a loss to the company, the liability is reduced by 3 times (6 times for inside directors) the amount of remuneration for the most recent year. However, because the compensation itself is not high, candidates for outside directors may choose not to take on the judicial risk arising from the revision of the Commercial Act rather than bear it. Bang In-tae, an attorney at Daeryun Law Firm, also pointed out, "After the revision of the Commercial Act, even if an (outside) director's work performance does not cause damage to the company, some shareholders may interpret the decline in the stock price itself as a violation of the duty of loyalty." He also pointed out, "The principle of management judgment that reduces directors' liability in determining directors' liability for damages or breach of trust may no longer be possible." He added, "As legal risks increase, directors' decision-making and other work performance may have greater incentives to be conservative and safety-oriented. Not only will it be difficult to find outside directors, but their compensation may also rise further."

Concerns over ‘famine of outside directors’ growing amid push for commercial law revision [Ahn Hyeon-deok’s LawStory] (link) 2026-05-13T14:26:47.126Z https://www.daeryunlaw.com/en/broadcast/5338 In the second round, 331 civil cases and 43 criminal cases were added... A total of 637 people participated in the first and second civil and criminal investigations. SKT's negligence was objectively revealed... Daeryun law firm is taking full-fledged legal action by filing a second criminal complaint and complaint on behalf of the victims and filing a civil suit on behalf of the victims in relation to the SK Telecom (SKT) SIM information hacking incident. Daeryun Law Firm is representing 43 victims secured through the second internal recruitment on the 5th of this month following the 1st of last month, and Yoo Young-sang representing 43 victims. A criminal complaint was filed against SK Telecom's CEO and those responsible for security at Namdaemun Police Station in Seoul. The contents are the same as the first, including charges of breach of trust and obstruction of business, and the key point is that the company neglected its information protection obligations as a telecommunications company. Then, on the 12th, Daeryun filed a second civil damages claim with the Seoul Central District Court on behalf of 331 victims. As a result, a total of 581 people, including those who participated in the first civil lawsuit filed on the 27th of last month, have participated in the process of seeking civil and criminal liability through Daeryun. The civil lawsuit claim amount is 1 million won per person. Amid continued criticism that SK Telecom's poor security management, such as non-encryption of SIM card information, non-preservation of server logs, and lack of security investment, contributed to the accident, attention is focused on the level of disciplinary action ahead of the announcement of the final investigation results of the SK Telecom public-private joint investigation team into the infringement accident. As a result of the investigation team's additional investigation, it was confirmed that over 290,000 pieces of sensitive information, including unique device identification numbers (IMEI), were stored on the hacked server, and the situation is rapidly spreading. Daeryun is taking legal action by establishing a system led by the 'Special Enforcement Headquarters (Special Department)', which is composed of attorney Cho Young-gon, a former chief of the Seoul Central District Prosecutors' Office, and attorney Yeo Sang-won, a former Supreme Court trial researcher. Attorney Yeo explained, “There were a huge number of victims, and in the process of dealing with the damage, we plan to actively assert the direct and additional damage caused by SK Telecom’s efforts to conceal the hacking, as well as the victims’ anxiety about their information being exposed.” Attorney Yeo also refuted some of the skeptical views surrounding this lawsuit. It is not right to unconditionally deny the possibility of winning the case simply because there is no precedent for punitive damages being recognized in relation to personal information infringement incidents. Attorney Yeo said, “This is an unusual case in which SK Telecom’s serious negligence was objectively revealed,” and “If the results of the investigation by the public-private joint investigation team, which will be announced later, are used as proof, liability for damages may be acknowledged.” Attorney Young-gon Cho said, “Sensitive information stored on a hacked server can be seen as the basis for mass hacking.” He added, “IMEI, ICCID, etc., which appear to have been leaked in this incident, can lead to financial fraud, identity theft, and invasion of privacy.” “The leak itself not only poses a serious risk, but also causes psychological damage to individuals,” he said. He added, “The Constitution and the Personal Information Protection Act make it clear that the responsibility for preventing the possibility of damage lies with the business operator. The reasons why victims have been disadvantaged in class action lawsuits are the asymmetry of technical information, the passivity of the judiciary, and the structure of burden of proof. As Daeryun recognizes this case as a public interest lawsuit to protect the rights and interests of the entire public, it holds companies accountable and victims are entitled to rights. “We will respond thoroughly to help you recover,” he added. Meanwhile, Daeryun plans to continue recruiting victims and begin filing additional complaints sequentially. In addition, we plan to carry out follow-up procedures, including securing evidence of SK Telecom's intentional or gross negligence, following the investigation team's final announcement.

Both sides rejected the decision to recommend a settlement and ‘refund half of the accommodation fee’, leading to a formal trial. First trial “Unfair terms and conditions unfavorable to the customer are invalid.” The court ruled that the terms and conditions of the accommodation reservation platform, which stipulated that refunds are not possible if cancellation is not made within 10 minutes after completing the reservation, were unfair and invalid. The court ruled that even if an accommodation reservation platform is simply a mail-order intermediary, legal liability can be recognized if it unfairly sets refund regulations that are unfavorable to consumers. According to the legal community on the 13th, Chief Judge Ha Hyun-guk of the Seoul Central District Court Civil Division 1002 ruled in favor of the plaintiff on the 11th in a lawsuit filed by consumer A against the accommodation reservation platform ‘Yanolja’. The court sentenced the defendants, including Yanolja, to refund the entire lodging fee to Mr. A. Mr. A made a reservation for a hotel accommodation worth about 660,000 won through the Yanolja app in 2023 and requested cancellation of the reservation about 2 hours later. However, Yanolja rejected this based on refund regulations. The refund policy includes the following: ‘Cancellation of a reservation is only possible within 10 minutes, and if it exceeds 10 minutes, a cancellation fee equivalent to 100% of the reservation fee will be incurred.’ The hotel that sold accommodation products through the Yanolja app also did not accept Mr. A’s request for a refund. The hotel argued that since the reservation was made through a lodging platform rather than the hotel's official website, it was not the party that directly entered into the reservation contract, so it had no right to cancel and no responsibility for a refund. Accordingly, Mr. A filed a lawsuit in this case. During the trial, Mr. A argued that Yanolja's regulations regarding refund penalties were invalid as they violated the Electronic Commerce Act and the Terms and Conditions Act. Article 17 of the Electronic Commerce Act stipulates that ‘Consumers who purchase goods, etc. from a mail order seller may withdraw their subscription within 7 days from the date of receiving a written letter regarding the contents of the contract.’ In addition, Article 6 of the Terms and Conditions Act stipulates that ‘any provision that is unfavorable to the customer is presumed to have lost fairness and is invalidated.’ However, Yanolja countered that ‘since it is only a mail-order intermediary, not a mail-order seller, it cannot be considered subject to the law, so it is not responsible for a refund.’ The first trial court accepted Mr. A’s argument and ruled in favor of the plaintiff. Chief Judge Ha said, “It is reasonable to say that ‘Nol Universe,’ which merged with Yanolja, is a mail order seller or a mail order intermediary,” and added, “The refund policy in this case is invalid as it is unfair terms and conditions that are unfairly disadvantageous to customers.” Regarding the hotel, he said, “The hotel claims that it is not the person who made the reservation for Mr. A and that it is not the person who received the payment from Mr. A. However, according to the evidence, the hotel receives a certain percentage of the payment from Nol Universe every month. He added, “The facts are acknowledged,” adding, “He falls under the category of ‘a person who has received payment from a consumer’ as defined in Article 18, Paragraph 2 of the Electronic Commerce Act.” Previously, in November of last year, the court made a decision to recommend reconciliation, saying, ‘The defendants should join together and pay half of the lodging fee to Mr. A.’ However, both sides rejected this, leading to a formal trial. Daeryun Law Firm, which represented Mr. A, said, “We would like to thank the court for ruling that Yanolja’s cancellation fee agreement was unfair,” and added, “We expect that this ruling will serve as an opportunity to put a brake on some unfair refund regulations such as online lodging platforms.” Reporter Park Min-ki (mkp@mk.co.kr)[View full article] Maeil Business News - [Exclusive] Yanolja’s policy of ‘no refunds after 10 minutes of reservation’ is broken… Court: “Refund the full amount” (Shortcut) Korea Economic Daily TV - Yanolja struck down by the court...

A facility management company requested that a subcontractor repay the settlement money paid to the surviving family of a deceased worker, but the court dismissed the request. On the 14th of last month, the Suwon District Court ruled that the plaintiff lost in the contract money lawsuit filed by facility management company A against Mr. B, the owner of the subcontractor. The case dates back to 2023. The deceased worker, Mr. C, was a worker who had been hired by Mr. B after subcontracting the cleaning service from Company A. He collapsed and died while cleaning the subway after its operation ended on June 28, 2023. At that time, Company A paid about 100 million won in funeral expenses and condolences to the bereaved family, and later filed a contract lawsuit against Mr. B. This is because Mr. C paid the settlement amount on behalf of Mr. B at the request of Mr. B even though he was not a member of Company A, but Mr. B is not keeping his promise to repay. In relation to this, Mr. B refuted that Mr. C and himself were only workers of Company A, and that the accident occurred while performing work instructed by Company A. Regarding the settlement, he also claimed that he had never consulted with Company A, such as promising to repay. The court said, "If you look at the agreement signed with the surviving family, the plaintiff is listed as a party, and the defendant appears to have been unaware of the main content of the agreement." It ruled, "It is difficult to say that an agreement regarding repayment of the settlement was made between the plaintiff and the defendant." It also said, "Because the plaintiff subcontracted the service work to the defendant, the possibility that the plaintiff also bears joint tort liability cannot be ruled out. “There is none,” he explained. Article 760, Paragraph 1 of the Civil Code stipulates that ‘when two persons cause damage to another person through a joint illegal act, they are jointly and severally liable to compensate for the damage.’ Company A's failure to submit documents and other evidence to prove that Mr. B had promised to repay was also used as the basis for the judgment of the plaintiff's defeat. In relation to this, lawyer Jang Eun-min of Daeryun Law Firm, who represented Mr. B, said, "If the plaintiff claims that the defendant promised to pay part of another person's debt, the burden of proof for this also lies with the plaintiff." He added, "Company A did not submit any evidence that it was entrusted with the agreement from Mr. B, and the fact that Mr. B's name is not even in the agreement. “I was able to get a favorable ruling by emphasizing it,” he said.

Court "Dismissed" (Shortcut) 2026-04-26T15:46:49.732Z https://www.daeryunlaw.com/en/broadcast/5334 Climate change caused by global warming is shaking the landscape of shipping logistics around the world. As Arctic melting accelerates, the Northern Sea Route is no longer a future possibility, but is emerging as an imminent reality. The Northern Sea Route, which can significantly shorten the sailing distance and time compared to the existing Suez Canal route, is attracting attention as a key axis in the reorganization of the global supply chain. Currently, most of Korea's import and export volume uses the route to the Suez Canal via the East and South China Seas. However, this route overlaps with disputed waters where military and diplomatic tensions are high, such as the Taiwan Strait and the Senkaku Islands. In fact, in recent years, conflicts between China and neighboring countries have become a serious threat to the stability of maritime logistics. In this uncertain international situation, the Northern Sea Route is emerging as a new axis of the national shipping strategy beyond a simple alternative route. Changes in the international shipping order herald a significant turning point for Busan. If the full-scale operation of the Northern Sea Route becomes a reality, Busan, which is geographically located at the gateway connecting the Northern Sea Route and Northeast Asia, can reestablish its status as a transshipment base and strategic maritime city. However, the reality of Busan has reached a point where it is mentioned as being on the verge of extinction due to problems such as population decline, weakening industrial competitiveness, and concentration in the metropolitan area. The current state of a city that was once attracting attention as a maritime hub in Northeast Asia is a sad state. What Busan needs now is not piecemeal administrative reorganization or expansion of physical infrastructure. It is time to fundamentally reorganize the ‘maritime city software,’ including smart port technology, digital shipping systems, and legal and institutional infrastructure that can handle global disputes, while maximizing the use of existing ports and logistics infrastructure. In this regard, President Lee Jae-myung publicly announced his intention to establish a maritime court in Busan during his presidential campaign. This is noteworthy in that it goes beyond a simple commitment to balanced regional development and builds a strategic judicial infrastructure to respond to global shipping competition. In fact, the world's leading shipping cities, such as Singapore, London, Rotterdam, and Shanghai, without exception, operate specialized maritime judicial functions or independent maritime courts. The institutional foundation goes beyond just a framework for resolving disputes and operates as a core infrastructure that supports transactions and trust in the overall maritime economy, including ship finance, marine insurance, and international contracts. While leading Daeryun Law Firm's overseas expansion, the author personally visited major maritime cities such as Singapore, London, and Dubai, and experienced how closely the maritime courts work with the local economic ecosystem. In particular, despite being an Islamic country, Dubai has created a legal environment in which global companies can transact with confidence by applying British common law within the Dubai International Financial Center (DIFC). Such a bold decision to adapt the legal system to the outside to enhance the city's competitiveness has significant implications for us as well. The maritime court to be established in Busan should also not be limited to a simple physical installation. In order to secure its status as a global maritime city, international If necessary, it should be developed into an international maritime court system that faithfully reflects the standards and procedures used in maritime transactions. A separate area can be designated to operate a dispute resolution system based on British common law, and furthermore, a plan to develop the court into a court capable of performing the functions of the International Court of Justice in maritime affairs can be considered. Busan is now standing at the doorstep of a historic opportunity called the Northern Sea Route, but it is not a simple matter of establishing a new court, but establishing a new center of Korea's maritime strategy. The sea is still Busan's future, and Busan can be the most important starting point on the road for Korea to become a maritime power again.[View full article] [Contribution] In the era of the Northern Sea Route, Busan must rise again as a maritime capital (Shortcut) 2026-05-06T05:54:30.478Z https://www.daeryunlaw.com/en/broadcast/5331 Daeryun Law Firm announced on the 12th that it held a working-level meeting with the Consulate General of the Republic of Korea in New York (Consul General Kim Ui-hwan) to protect overseas nationals and strengthen legal cooperation between Korea and the United States.

Through this MOU, the two sides agreed to promote multi-faceted collaboration, including healthy development of the legal service industry, expansion of services to the public, cooperation in enacting and amending laws for autonomy, decentralization and balanced development, and legal, tax and accounting advice for members of the Korea Regional Journalists Club. “Legal information is the social foundation that protects citizens’ rights,” said Kim Kuk-il, CEO of Daeryun Law Firm (Law), adding, “By combining Daeryun Law Firm (Law) Limited’s global mega law firm system with the network of the Korea Local Journalists Club (KLJC), we will contribute to bridging regional gaps and ensuring that anyone can receive professional help.” Lee Ki-dong, president of the Korea Regional Journalists Club, gave meaning to this, saying, “We have created a decisive turning point in which local media can go beyond simply delivering news and provide legal information that is closely related to the daily lives of residents.” The two organizations plan to hold quarterly planning meetings in the future to select regionally tailored topics and sequentially expand content such as conflict case explanations, lifestyle Q&A, online and offline lectures, and seminars. Through this, we plan to continue to expand close legal service contact points with the local community beyond simple information delivery and strengthen cooperative relationships with the common goal of establishing an 'environment where everyone can receive high-quality legal services fairly.'

Daeryun Law Firm, which provides advisory services such as review of content industry regulations, “Provides solutions tailored to the characteristics of companies and industries in each country... We will become a global investment partner” Daeryun Law Firm is attracting attention from the industry as it is expanding its influence as a ‘global business partner’ that helps overseas companies enter the domestic market. According to Daeryun Law Firm, Japanese digital content distributor ‘Panax Japan’ signed a legal advisory contract with Daeryun Law Firm last month. Previously, Panax Japan submitted a letter of intent for investment worth 10 billion won to Goyang-si, Gyeonggi-do in June 2024 and began entering the domestic content market in earnest. Panax Japan selected Daeryun Law Firm, which has a high level of understanding of the global corporate advisory and content industry, as the final advisor among the many legal advisors that signed an MOU with Goyang City at the time. Daeryun Law Firm provided a wide range of legal services, including review of content industry regulations, copyright law and business-related licensing advice, during the advisory process for Panax Japan's Foreign Investment Company (FDI), helping to enable smooth domestic business activities. Daeryun Law Firm like this. While running the customs and international trade group, he is actively helping overseas companies advance into Korea.

According to the police on the 11th, the Gwangju Police Agency recently decided not to transfer four medical staff, including Mr. A, who was suspected of causing death due to professional negligence. Previously, in 2023, a patient in his 60s, Mr. B, died at a nursing hospital in Gwangju Metropolitan City. At the time, the bereaved family said that Mr. B was killed by food. A complaint was submitted to the investigative agency, claiming that the medical staff did not take proper emergency measures such as CPR in a suffocating situation. The medical staff denied the charges, saying that Mr. B was already in cardiac arrest when they found him. They administered first aid, including oxygen administration, but claimed that they were unable to perform CPR due to a DNR (denial of life-sustaining treatment) consent form written by the patient's guardian. The police determined that they were not guilty. "It is entirely possible that the victim died of suffocation. "It is difficult to rule it out, but considering that the victim had findings such as arteriosclerosis in some parts of the cardiovascular system and that more strain is usually placed on the heart during the digestion process after a meal, the possibility of sudden cardiac death appears to be the highest." He added, "I believe that the medical staff can declare a victim with a DNR consent form dead considering his condition at the time," adding, "It was difficult for the suspects to predict the victim's cardiac arrest, and it cannot be said that there was negligence in medical practice such as first aid." This was elaborated. Attorney Kim Cheol of Daeryun Law Firm, who represented Mr. A, explained, "According to precedents, DNR status means that if pulmonary or cardiac arrest unexpectedly occurs during treatment, death is accepted without performing CPR. If high-intensity pressure is applied for CPR despite a DNR consent form, it is compulsory treatment against the patient's will and may amount to assault or injury."

Under the current law, insider trading is limited to cases of trading the company's own stocks. Accordingly, if a case like the US case occurs in Korea, there will be limits to sanctions and it may have a negative impact on the fairness and reliability of the capital market. The legal community points out that legislative supplementation is needed to expand the scope of insider trading. Betting on a rise in competitors' stock prices... U.S. court imposes three times fine for unjust enrichment What sparked the discussion surrounding the scope of insider trading was the so-called 'shadow insider trading' case that occurred in the United States. Shadow insider trading refers to the act of making profits by purchasing stocks of other companies based on the company's undisclosed internal information. Previously, in 2016, Matthew Panuwert, an executive at the biopharmaceutical company Medivation, heard internal information that large pharmaceutical company Pfizer was pursuing the acquisition of Medivation, and purchased options to bet on the rise in the stock price of competitors whose movements were linked to the company's stock price. The Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) determined that Panuwat's actions constituted insider trading. Last September, the court accepted the SEC's argument and imposed a fine equivalent to three times the amount of unjust enrichment on Panuwat. However, as Hoban Group recently purchased a stake in LS, interest in shadow insider trading has increased in Korea as well. Hoban purchased shares while the subsidiaries of both companies were engaged in a lawsuit. The stock of the other party in the lawsuit was purchased. In addition, when the stock price jumped due to a partial ruling in favor of an LS subsidiary, which would ultimately be good news for Hoban, suspicions were raised that the stock was traded using internal information. “Explicit legal regulations are needed... uncertainty must be resolved” The legal community agreed that although it is difficult to view the Hoban case as shadow insider trading, laws to regulate such cases are needed to ensure a fair trading order. Attorney Kwon Mun-gyu of the law firm Space and Gil said, “Shadow insider trading is unfair trading in a state of unequal information,” and added, “Because criminal punishment is difficult under the current Capital Market Act and the provisions on the basis for other regulations are somewhat insufficient, legislative efforts to resolve this seem necessary.” Ahn Hee-cheol, the representative attorney at DL Law Firm, also said, "Shadow insider trading is a new form of unfair trading that can avoid existing insider trading regulations." He added, "We need to expand the regulatory scope of insider trading and explicitly stipulate it in the Capital Markets Act to resolve legal uncertainty." Weight was also placed on the possibility of related discussions taking place. Seungmin Lee, a lawyer at Seum Law Firm, said, "Korea's capital market law has been greatly influenced by the U.S. securities law, so if precedents such as the Panuwert case that punish shadow insider trading are established in the U.S., related discussions will inevitably continue in Korea." Cho Young-gon, a lawyer at Daeryun Law Firm, said, "Considering the recent attitudes of financial authorities and prosecutors and the direction of system improvement, there is room to discuss the creation of new punishment provisions or revision of legal provisions with the need for punishment in mind. In this process, it is necessary to analyze the impact of undisclosed information on the stock price of the industry as a whole and suspected cases of use of inside information that affect the industry as a whole." However, the key during the discussion process is to clarify the standards for shadow insider trading. Attorney Lee said, "The U.S. case was a case where insider trading was expanded to include trading the stocks of another company that is economically related (sharing market connection) using undisclosed information of one company. Since the term 'economically connected' is quite vague and can be interpreted broadly, if it is not defined accurately, there is a risk that trading in the stocks of competitors or affiliates will be unfairly restricted."

As the scale of information leaks is expected to reach up to 25 million, the possibility of sim swapping using SIM information, creating cloned phones, and stealing text messages or financial authentication information is being raised. Since mobile phones are used as the most important authentication medium in non-face-to-face financial transactions, there is a high possibility that hackers will abuse them for electronic financial transaction fraud. In particular, with the revitalization of Fin-Tech, which combines finance and technology, most financial transactions are currently conducted non-face-to-face. Therefore, the financial industry is often a major target for hackers targeting security vulnerabilities. In fact, non-face-to-face financial accidents appear to occur frequently. For example, in the case of voice phishing, the National Police Agency estimated last year that the total damage amount was KRW 854.5 billion, and the damage per person was approximately KRW 41 million, which is a 91% and 73% increase respectively from the previous year. So who is responsible for non-face-to-face financial incidents such as smishing, pharming, and phishing? To explain this part, we must first look at the legal basis. Pursuant to Article 21 of the Electronic Financial Transactions Act (Obligation to Secure Safety), financial companies, etc. must exercise the utmost care as good managers to ensure that electronic financial transactions are processed safely, and are obligated to comply with the standards set by the Financial Services Commission in relation to the information technology sector and electronic financial services, such as manpower, facilities, and electronic devices for electronic transmission or processing, to ensure the safety and reliability of electronic financial transactions. In addition, in accordance with Article 9 of the same Act, financial companies, etc. are required to comply with the standards set by the Financial Services Commission in relation to electronic financial services, including manpower, facilities, and electronic devices for electronic transmission or processing, to ensure the safety and reliability of electronic financial transactions. If damage occurs to a user due to an accident that occurs during the electronic transmission or processing of a contract or transaction instruction, or an accident that occurs due to the use of an access medium obtained by false or other illegal means by intruding into an electronic device or information and communication network for electronic financial transactions, the user is responsible for compensating for the damage. In other words, unless there is intentional or gross negligence on the part of the user, in principle, the financial company must compensate the user for any damages incurred. What should be done if a non-face-to-face financial accident actually occurs? First, you can report or consult with the Telecommunications Financial Fraud Integrated Reporting and Response Center (112) or apply for damage relief to the relevant financial company. In urgent cases, you can apply by phone and submit the documents later. Once the financial company receives the application, the account will be suspended from payment, and if any damages still remain in the account, procedures will be taken to refund the victim. If you report a financial fraud to the police and obtain an incident confirmation certificate detailing the date, time, and amount of damage, you can use it as evidence or explanatory material in future procedures. You can also consider seeking punishment for criminals from the investigative agency through a criminal complaint. Naturally, the biggest concern from the victim's point of view is recovering the amount of damage. Based on the agreement with the Financial Supervisory Service, first-tier financial institutions will implement 'non-face-to-face financial accident responsibility sharing standards' from 2024 and second-tier financial institutions will implement 'non-face-to-face financial accident liability sharing standards' from 2025, and they will independently calculate the liability ratio for damages and provide corresponding compensation to users. It is also possible to apply for dispute mediation to the Financial Dispute Mediation Committee of the Financial Supervisory Service. For example, in 2022, the committee acknowledged the negligence of a financial institution in suspending payments for voice phishing and decided to compensate for the full amount of causal damage. It is also possible to file a lawsuit against a financial company claiming damages under the Electronic Financial Transactions Act, or to file a lawsuit to confirm the non-existence of debt for an identity theft loan that was not made against the person's will. In relation to this, there have been a number of recent precedents in lower courts favoring the victims. However, the best way is to prevent damage in advance. Do not click on links included in text messages unless you trust the source, and make efforts to regularly remove malware and viruses using security or anti-virus programs. Financial accidents can be largely prevented by using the mobile phone identity theft prevention service of the Korea Association for Information and Communications Technology (KAIT) or, if your personal information has been exposed, by registering it with the Financial Supervisory Service's Personal Information Exposure Accident Prevention System. If actual financial transactions due to identity theft are confirmed or suspected, you can also suspend payments in your name at the Korea Financial Telecommunications and Clearings & Clearings Institute Account Information Integrated Management Service (Account Info) or report your credit cards as lost all at once. It is possible. Account Info also provides a safe blocking service for non-face-to-face account openings, which can prevent additional opening of identity theft accounts.

The court said, "There are no measures to recover the damage... We need to be severely punished." A building owner who committed a lease fraud by hiding the debt and pretending to be an agent was sentenced to prison. On the 1st of last month, the Jinju Branch of the Changwon District Court sentenced Mr. A, in his 40s, to 2 years and 6 months in prison, who was indicted on charges of fraud. Mr. A, who was the owner of the building, was incapable of repaying the lease deposit due to a mortgage debt. He was accused of stealing about 400 million won in deposits from five tenants, including Mr. B, over a period of about a year starting in 2021. As a result of the investigation, it was revealed that Mr. A had entered into a lease agreement as an agent by appointing a third party as the landlord, and had falsely notified the senior deposit in the process. During the trial, Mr. A countered that some buildings had sufficient collateral value, so even if he had notified the senior deposit less, it did not constitute fraud. The court sentenced Mr. A to prison. sentenced. The court said, “Even if the appraised value of the building is sufficient, the actual successful bid price may be much lower through the auction process,” and “The fact that the defendant reduced the senior deposit amount and notified it itself proves that there was an assessment that the collateral value was insufficient.” He continued, “The amount of damage exceeds 400 million won, and no measures have been taken to recover the damage.” He added, “There is a need to severely punish him for some crimes because he denies the facts of the indictment.” He added. Lee Seong-cheol, a lawyer at Daeryun Law Firm who represented Mr. B in this case, explained, “Some of the victims, including Mr. B, suffered great difficulties as they were defrauded at a time when they were just starting out in society and had to settle down. Based on Mr. A’s mortgage and other debts, we were able to obtain a prison sentence by proving that he had no intention or ability to return the money from the time of the contract.” Reporter Kim Jong-cheol (jckim99@sportsseoul.com)[View full article] The building owner committed rent fraud by hiding the debt... 2 years and 6 months in prison (link) 2026-05-12T12:26:30.032Z https://www.daeryunlaw.com/en/broadcast/5319 The relocation of the ‘network law firm’ is in the midst of a de facto reorganization of the lawyer’s private office industry… The damage is entirely borne by legal consumers. The legal profession says, “We need to stop promoting the idea that an organized response is possible.” One of the emerging topics in the legal world recently is ‘network law firms.’ This is because it is the only one showing rapid growth in the stagnant legal market. Daeryun and YK are considered leaders in network law firms. YK solidified its position as a large law firm last year, recording sales of more than 150 billion won. Last year, Daeryun also entered the top 10 law firms with sales exceeding 100 billion won just 9 years after its establishment. Network law firms mainly advocate a ‘one-firm system.’ Although we have branch offices in various regions across the country, all matters related to the operation of the law firm are collectively managed by the main office. Profit is also shared by all members in a certain ratio. They are also active in marketing, investing a considerable amount of money in advertising costs. Therefore, criticism is being raised within the industry that these law firms are sweeping away all cases in small regions. Before the advent of network law firms, so-called ‘separate law firms’ were making waves in the industry. The separate accounting system is operated in such a way that each lawyer, even if belonging to the same law firm, receives profits as if he were an independent sole proprietor. In fact, it can be seen as close to a private office as only common expenses such as office rent and employee wages are shared. Cases are also handled individually by each office. It is pointed out that in Korea, the term network law firm is used without a clear definition, and in reality, separate law firms are recognized as the same category, which may pose unnecessary risks to customers. An official from a network law firm said, “The Korean legal community still lacks understanding of the structure of global law firms, and some law firms call themselves a network with 2-3 branch offices and only online advertisements, and in fact operate in a separate system system.” “Only a very small number of companies have established a global mega law firm-type structure that allows for quality control on a nationwide basis,” he explained. Contrary to the appearance of a prosperous law firm, in reality, it is run by individual lawyers handling the cases they take on alone. This is why there are concerns that the absence of a case management and collaboration system may lead to a decline in the quality of legal services. There are also cases that clearly demonstrate the problems of separate law firms. This is the so-called ‘trial no-show case’, which became controversial when a lawyer who worked at Byeolsanje Law Firm failed to attend the trial after serving as legal representative for the family of a school violence victim. The victim's family received a partial ruling in favor of the case in the first trial, but due to the lawyer's continued non-appearance, the result was eventually overturned in the appellate court as a 'loss'. As the case became controversial, the law firm that the lawyer was affiliated with issued a statement and quickly drew a line, saying, "The lawyer in question has withdrawn from the main office and has absolutely nothing to do with our branch office." In the end, it is pointed out that due to this type of law firm operation, the damage is borne entirely by the customer. A legal industry official said, “It would be absurd for legal consumers if the place they went to expecting high-quality service actually had less system than a private office.” He continued, “As related disputes are increasing, an internal self-purification process is needed in the industry.” He added, “It appears that sanctions are needed for the practice of deceiving consumers by claiming that an organized response is possible despite the separate system.” Reporter Park Jae-gwan (paksunbi@fnnews.com)[View full article] A law firm with a lot of patterns...

The Daejeon District Court's Cheonan Branch acquitted person A, in her 70s, who was indicted on charges of computer fraud and theft last May. Person A was accused of secretly taking out a bank account from an acquaintance B's bag and withdrawing 700,000 won in July of last year. The prosecution also charged Mr. A with fraud based on the fact that Mr. A borrowed 3.5 million won from Mr. B even though he had no ability to repay. Mr. A completely denied the charges. He claimed that it was true that he borrowed money, but that he never stole the bank account. He emphasized that Mr. B handed him his bankbook, allowed him to withdraw money, and also gave him his password. The court ruled in Mr. A's favor. The court ruled, "Considering that Mr. A has repeatedly made financial transactions with Mr. B in the past and has repaid them within the promised period, it is difficult to say that he deceived Mr. B into a mistake." He added, "Mr. A not only repaid the entire amount of the loan, but also repaid it with interest in addition to the principal. Considering all the circumstances, including the call history between the two, it appears that Mr. B was also fully aware that the transaction was a routine financial transaction." Attorney Kim Dong-gu of Daeryun Law Firm (Lihan), who represented him, explained, "Mr. A had a history of borrowing and repaying a total of about 10 million won from Mr. B over the past 10 years, and in this case as well, he submitted in detail related call recordings, remittance details, text messages related to repayment, etc. to prove that there were actual financial transactions." He added, "This had a positive effect on the court's judgment and was able to lead to a not guilty verdict."

According to the legal community on the 9th, the Seoul Central District Court acquitted Mr. A, who was indicted on charges of theft on the 1st of last month. Mr. A was suspected of stealing the locker key of the hospital where he worked in 2023. The hospital claimed that Mr. A stole the master key that could open all lockers and that he did this to steal items from other employees. The hospital showed Mr. A relevant CCTV footage and asked him to return the key, but claimed that Mr. A refused. Mr. A denied the charges. He claimed that the item he possessed in the CCTV video was his USB stick and that he did not know the whereabouts of the key. The police investigating the case decided not to send the case, but the hospital raised an objection, and the prosecution decided that the charges were acceptable and summarily indicted Mr. A. Afterwards, the court ordered a summary fine of 700,000 won, but Mr. A objected and requested a formal trial. As a result of the formal trial, the court found Mr. A not guilty. Although the CCTV footage shows Mr. A taking a specific item, it was not visible what he had taken and it was not possible to accurately identify the item in his hand. In addition, after the key was lost, there was no data showing that items in Mr. A's locker were lost while he was working at the hospital, so he was acquitted. Attorney Kim Gwang-deok of the Daeryun Law Firm, who represented Mr. A, said, "In a criminal trial, admission of a crime must be proven by strict evidence. We were able to win the acquittal by emphasizing that the items in the CCTV were not clearly read and that no additional theft incidents occurred."

The court ruled that if the contractor had entered into a joint guarantee with the contractor at the time of signing the construction contract, the contractor must repay the amount that the contractor failed to pay to the supplier. The purpose is that the contract takes effect for repayment and requires a joint obligation. On the 9th of last month, the Changwon District Court ruled in favor of the plaintiff, as in the original trial, in the appeal trial of the product payment claim lawsuit filed by company A, a ready-mix concrete supply partner, against two companies, including company B, the construction project orderer. Previously, company A signed a contract with a construction company in July 2022 to supply ready-mix concrete worth about 120 million won. In this process, Company A requested a joint guarantee from the construction company. Accordingly, company B, the ordering company, promised to guarantee the ready-mix concrete debt. However, the conflict began when the construction company did not pay 82 million won in construction fees to company A. Accordingly, Company A filed a lawsuit against Company B, which provided joint guarantee with the construction company. They argued that if the construction company cannot afford to repay the debt, Company B, the joint guarantor, should also be held responsible. However, Company B countered that it was not responsible. All construction costs have already been paid to the construction company. Company B emphasized, “Even though Company A was aware of the construction company’s inability to pay, it did not notify us of this situation,” and added, “Therefore, it cannot be jointly and severally liable.” The first trial court upheld all of Company A’s payment claims. The court ruled, "The ready-mix concrete price was paid in part on two occasions. As the defendant claims, there is no basis for admitting that the plaintiff knew in advance about the construction company's financial deterioration situation," and "Therefore, we do not accept the defendant's claim." Company B, which was dissatisfied with the first trial ruling, immediately appealed, but the appellate court also ruled in favor of company A. Attorney Jong-hoon Han of Daeryun Law Firm, who represented company A, said, "According to Article 436-2 of the Civil Act, creditors are “If the main debtor fails to fulfill its obligations for more than three months after signing the guarantee contract, it must be notified without delay,” he explained. “However, in this case, the construction company paid part of the ready-mix concrete price twice, which resulted in a change in the notification obligation period.” He continued, “Company B claimed that Company A was negligent in its notification obligation, but since there was no data to determine when funds deteriorated, the defendant's claim was groundless because the notification obligation period could not be specified.” He added, “Because the construction company still has unpaid funds. “Company B, the joint guarantor, is still responsible, and both the first and second trials saw no change in joint liability, so the lawsuit was able to be concluded with the plaintiff’s victory.” Digital Content Team[View full article] Court: “Non-payment of goods… Joint guarantor must pay together” (Shortcut) 2026-05-04T15:26:22.382Z https://www.daeryunlaw.com/en/broadcast/5314 In 2002, when MB was mayor of Seoul, he first surfaced, criticizing the intervention of state agencies and the use of macro programs as a "threat to democracy"... The cautious view on 'freedom of expression' is also spreading amid controversy over comment manipulation by the far-right history education group Livac School. Livac School is an organization named after the last names of former President Syngman Rhee and former President Park Chung-hee, respectively, and is suspected of trying to create public opinion favorable to the conservative camp and influence various elections through Internet comment activities three years ago. On the 4th, three days after the incident was announced, the police began a full-scale investigation, seizing and searching the residence and office of Son Hyo-sook, CEO of Revac School. Online public opinion manipulation incidents such as the Revac School incident have continued since the early 2000s when computers became popular. Online spaces are the perfect place to push public opinion on various issues in a specific direction. First of all, Internet portal sites and communities have enormous potential in that they are spaces used by hundreds of thousands or millions of people. Moreover, the anonymity that is a characteristic of online makes it difficult to identify the true nature of public opinion manipulation. This means that if some forces systematically carry out posting or commenting activities, it can create an optical illusion as if this is the actual trend of public opinion. The damage is truly enormous. It may hinder the free formation of opinions by voters and ultimately lead to distorted election results. Manipulation of public opinion threatens and undermines the foundation of democracy. Is there any way to prevent this in advance? We looked for appropriate response measures by looking at the patterns of online public opinion manipulation incidents that have occurred in the political world and cases of criminal punishment.‘Public opinion manipulation’ regardless of whether conservative or progressiveOnline public opinion manipulation first surfaced in 2002. Soon after, Mayor Lee Myung-bak of Seoul, who took office on July 1 of that year, was suspected of trying to create 'pro-Lee Myung-bak' public opinion by hiring part-time workers. This is because, in a situation where the mayor was embroiled in a series of rumors, hundreds of posts defending Mayor Lee were posted in the civil liberties discussion room on the Seoul City Hall website in just a few days. Ahead of the 2004 general election, a prospective candidate in the Uri Party's primary was arrested on charges of paying college students to post articles supporting him on the Internet. The National Intelligence Service's comment manipulation incident, which came to light in late 2012, most clearly demonstrated the seriousness of online public opinion manipulation. This was an incident in which the National Intelligence Service directly operated a ‘civilian comment unit’ during the Lee Myung-bak (MB) administration and attempted to manipulate public opinion. In May 2009, when the approval ratings of the MB government hit rock bottom due to protests against the import of U.S. beef, then-NIS Director Won Se-hoon, who was four months into his term, established a 'cyber outskirt team' under the NIS North Korea Psychological Warfare Division and had them post internet posts and comments defending the government and the conservative camp and defaming the opposition party and progressive civic groups. The size of the cyber external team, which initially started with 9 teams, increased to 30 teams (3,500 people in total) in 2012, when the general and presidential elections were held. In this case, former Director Won was sentenced to four years in prison and four years of suspension for violating the Public Official Election Act and the National Intelligence Service Act. The 'temptation' of manipulating public opinion did not discriminate between the left and the right. A representative example is the so-called ‘Druking incident’, which caused great harm to the progressive camp in 2018. It was an incident in which a group of men who were active online under the pen name 'Druking' used a macro program between 2014 and 2018 to manipulate the number of 'likes' or 'dislikes' in comments on news articles on portal sites to favor the Democratic Party of Korea. It was revealed that Gyeongsangnam-do governor at the time, Kim Kyung-soo, a close associate of former President Moon Jae-in, had conspired, and he was eventually sentenced to two years in prison and lost his position as governor.① Macro ② Organizational ③ Punishment must be proven to be quid pro quoAs in previous cases, criminal punishment for manipulating public opinion is possible. Illegality is recognized if an organized activity is carried out, such as using a macro manipulation program (alleged computer interference with business) or installing a similar organization to influence the election even though it is not an official election office (crime of election fraud under the Public Official Election Act). In addition, even if a person promises compensation and instructs to manipulate public opinion, it falls under Article 230 of the Public Official Election Act (crime of buying and inducing interest). However, not all acts related to manipulating public opinion are subject to judicial processing. For example, the act of sharing a specific comment or community post and simply encouraging people to click on a recommendation or leave a comment (so-called 'marking') is recognized as 'freedom of expression' in a broad sense. Livac School also claims, “Writing comments and clicking ‘Like’ or ‘Dislike’ are clearly legal and constitutionally guaranteed acts of citizen political participation.” Seong-Hoon Ahn, a lawyer at Beopseung Law Firm, explained, "If a small number of people engage in comment-related activities on a small scale, the charge of obstruction of business may not be recognized. However, if the scale reaches a significant level and the targeted comments are exposed to the top for a significant period of time, there is a possibility that a crime can be established. Portal sites also do not restrict users' participation in the 'simple coordinate shooting' style." It is viewed as a free expression of collective opinion. A Naver official said, “It may change depending on the results of the investigation, but it is not easy to view the act of multiple people clicking ‘recommend’ on comments using their own accounts as obstruction of business.” An official from Kakao, which operates the portal Daum, also said, "It is difficult for a business operator to judge whether public opinion has been manipulated and take preemptive legal action simply by expressing a collective opinion online." Therefore, the keys to determining illegality in this Revac School incident are expected to be 'quid pro quo' and 'organization'. According to data submitted by Naver on the 5th by Choi Min-hee, Chairman of the Science, Technology, Information, Broadcasting and Communications Committee of the National Assembly, Naver said, "After analyzing the login records of nine Revac School member accounts, we confirmed some cases where accounts with different names were accessed from the same IP." This means that multiple accounts were accessed from one computer. In a phone call with the Hankook Ilbo, Naver explained, "We are independently checking whether accounts have been transferred or rented in the name of others, and additional information will be revealed through investigative agencies." He added, "It is not possible to determine whether public opinion has been manipulated simply by the fact that multiple accounts are connected from the same IP. However, if one person writes (multiple) comments using another person's account, there may be a potential for problems." Naver's terms of use stipulate that "accounts cannot be sold, transferred, or rented to other people."“The government should step in and strengthen regulations on manipulating public opinion.”Experts argue that the government must step in and strengthen regulations on manipulating public opinion. Yoo Hyeon-jae, a professor of journalism and broadcasting at Sogang University, said, "Considering the rapidly changing media environment, there is no legal system that can respond appropriately to it." Professor Yoo explained, "From the portal's perspective, it is beneficial in terms of traffic (number of visitors), so there is not much incentive to (actively) prevent the act of manipulating public opinion." He added, "The government should first present guidelines such as 'disadvantages when manipulating public opinion' and proceed by requesting these from portals." However, there are also cautious views. This is because defining the meaning of public opinion manipulation broadly has the potential to harm freedom of expression. Lawyer Jae-young Yoo of Daeryun Law Firm said, "Even if specific punishment provisions are prepared for manipulating public opinion, it is difficult to clarify the elements, and issues of legal punishment will arise in the future," and emphasized, "There must be a social consensus first on the extent to which Internet public opinion formation and public opinion-leading behavior will be punished."

This is because, amid recent lawsuits in the franchise industry due to disputes over franchise fees and head office owner risk, related demand is expected to increase as President Lee Jae-myung announced that he will overhaul the system to guarantee collective bargaining rights to franchisees. The purpose of this pledge is to legally codify the consultation process between the headquarters and franchisees, which has been left to its own discretion until now. Considering this situation, Daeryun decided to provide multifaceted legal support centered on corporate lawyers who are familiar with corporate laws such as the Fair Trade Act and the Franchise Business Act. If a dispute arises, the group plans to conduct a case by conducting a preliminary review and forming a team of 3 to 20 experts in each field, including corporate law, fair trade, finance, and labor, depending on the case. The corporate legal group is headed by attorney Kye-jun Son (36th class of the Judicial Research and Training Institute), who worked at the Fair Trade Commission and handled cases such as Homeplus' violation of the Franchise Business Act and the corporate combination case of SK Telecom and SK Broadband's acquisition of T-Broad. Also participating are Shin Jong-soo, head of the Corporate Advisory Center (31st class), who has expertise in sales, acquisitions, and transactions, and Kim Won-sang, head of the Rehabilitation and Bankruptcy Center (43rd class), who represented the franchise owner in the Korea Pizza Hut unfair profit return lawsuit. In addition, lawyer Oh Sang-wan (37th class), who has extensive experience in corporate criminal, civil, and administrative cases. The corporate legal group includes Attorney Bang In-tae (41st class), a former in-house lawyer at a large corporation and an expert in human resources and labor; Kim Yu-jeong, who specializes in taxation and administrative litigation; Ji Min-hee, who advises on fair trade and M&A; and Kim Seo-young, who has extensive experience representing corporate rehabilitation and bankruptcy. In addition, we collaborate in real time with experts such as accountants, tax accountants, and labor attorneys as needed. Key experts include accountant Park Soo-jin in the field of finance and accounting, tax accountant Lim Jeong-oh, who performs corporate tax adjustment and consulting, and labor attorney Nam Seo-hye, who has handled a variety of labor cases. Considering the nature of corporate legal affairs, which involves many mid-to-large-sized cases, an internal system was also established to increase case processing efficiency, such as establishing a special execution headquarters that commands cases led by the headquarters.

Currently, in Korea, only lawyers and credit information companies licensed by the Financial Supervisory Service can conduct debt collection work, and Daeryun is the only large law firm specializing in this field. The background of the creation of the Daeryun Debt Collection Center lies in the values ​​pursued by Daeryun. The vision that ‘anyone can receive high-quality legal services anytime, anywhere’ has also been applied to the field of debt collection. It enabled clients to use the services they needed through lawyers in a legal and efficient manner. What stands out most about the center is the collaboration of experts in multiple fields. Experts with extensive experience, such as lawyers, paralegals, tax accountants, and accountants, provide prompt and accurate results. The center is spearheaded by Lee Sang-kwon, a lawyer specializing in debt collection (31st class of the Judicial Research and Training Institute). He started working as a lawyer in 2002 and has been in charge of overseas debt collection at TCM Korea Law Office. This lawyer entered the debt collection field in earnest in 2011, and after much effort, he achieved the feat of registering debt collection as a specialty with the Korean Bar Association (Bar Association) for the first time in Korea. He is considered an authority in the field of debt collection, having served as the first president of the Korean Bar Association's Debt Collection Lawyers Association and currently serving as an advisor. Attorney Lee, who took over as head of the center, said, "It is time to take a preemptive response as interest in collection is increasing," adding, "By delegating tasks to a professional lawyer, efficient debt collection is possible as they can proceed from simple collection work to complex legal procedures. Various effects are expected by allowing the use of human and material resources at the law firm level." revealed. A lawyer’s debt collection goes through several steps. In addition, this series of processes requires legal means, from proof of contents to payment orders and seizures, and it is important to receive professional help from a lawyer. When asked about the advantages of Daeryun Debt Collection Center, the lawyer responded that the combination of debt collection and litigation was impressive. He said, “Specializing in the field of debt collection means that we have everything from relatively simple tasks such as agreements and proof of contents to general litigation capabilities,” and added, “We are creating synergy by combining expertise in the debt collection and litigation fields.” The close joint response system with Daeryun Security Group is also worth noting. Just as there are plaintiffs and defendants in a lawsuit, there is also a side collecting the debt and a side receiving the debt in debt collection. Daeryun Security Group provides a variety of services, including accompanying professional security guards, to clients suffering from illegal debt collection. Attorney Lee explained, “This can be said to be a new change as we have accomplished something that has not been attempted in the industry. In the case of illegal debt collection, a one-stop solution can be provided in connection with security services.” Reporter Park Jun-sik (parkjs@wowtv.co.kr)[View full article] Korea Economic Daily TV - Daeryun, law firm's only debt collection center operation... “Combining expertise in the litigation field” (link) Sejeong Ilbo - Daeryun operates the only law firm debt collection center...

On the 13th of last month, the Seoul Central District Court ruled that the plaintiff, Mr. A, lost in the wage lawsuit filed against financial company B. Mr. A was dismissed from company B in 2018 on the grounds of receiving money and other valuables. Mr. A, who refused to comply, filed a suit for unfair disciplinary action and won, and Company B reinstated Mr. A to his original position. Approximately 200 million won in unpaid wages was paid. Afterwards, Mr. A filed an additional lawsuit for the unpaid amount, claiming that the wage increase during the period of dismissal was not reflected in the amount paid. In addition, he claimed, “The company signed an agreement with the labor union to pay 50% more wages due to unfair disciplinary action,” and added, “In total, an additional payment of about 400 million won must be paid.” Company B countered that it had no obligation to pay, saying, “The judgment on wage payment has been completed through previous lawsuits.” In addition, the ‘agreement to add 50% to wages due to unfair disciplinary action’ was concluded after Mr. A’s disciplinary action occurred. Accordingly, the court ruled in favor of Company B. “The plaintiff received wages in a previous lawsuit, and this is the same lawsuit as the current case,” he said. “This is a matter that violates the res judicata of the previous lawsuit, so it is illegal because there is no interest in protecting rights.” He added, “The agreement with the labor union was concluded in 2021, but the plaintiff was fighting disciplinary dismissal with the defendant even before that.” He added, “The disciplinary action was taken in 2018 before the agreement was signed. “A plaintiff who has received a disposition cannot claim additional compensation,” he said. Attorney Bang In-tae of Daeryun Law Firm, who represented Company B, said, “During the trial, Mr. A claimed that he refiled the lawsuit because he was not aware of the additional wages.” He also explained, “By comparing the case with the previous lawsuit, we were able to prove that the nature of the case was the same, and we were able to obtain a dismissal decision.” Reporter Hye-jeong Cho (hjcho@kyeonggi.com)[View full article] After winning the unfair disciplinary action, the lawsuit for unpaid wages was 'lost'... What is the cause? (Shortcut) 2026-05-08T06:58:39.385Z https://www.daeryunlaw.com/en/broadcast/5305 Social awareness of drunk driving has changed significantly since the enactment of the ‘Yoon Chang-ho Act’ in 2018. As public anger was reflected at the time of enactment, the level of punishment for drunk driving was strengthened, and drunk driving became a serious crime. However, it is still not well known which legal provisions are actually applied and how. In particular, many people misunderstand that the ‘three strikes and out’ method is still maintained when it comes to punishment standards. The current Road Traffic Act has significantly increased the level of punishment for drivers who are caught drunk driving more than twice within 10 years. The basis for the strengthened punishment can be found in Article 148-2 of the Road Traffic Act. According to this provision, if a person violates the law again within 10 years from the date of being sentenced to a fine or higher for drunk driving, he or she may be subject to imprisonment for 2 to 6 years or a fine of 10 million to 30 million won based on a blood alcohol concentration of 0.2% or more. Actual cases clearly illustrate this point. Mr. A has been fined four times in the past for drunk driving, and has recently taken measures to prevent drunk driving, such as hiring a dedicated driver. But one day, a problem arose during a drinking party. After finishing the first drinking party, he was taken to the next location by a designated driver, but he was unable to contact the designated driver for nearly an hour to return home from the second drinking party, and Mr. A ended up getting behind the wheel again. The key to the case was how to prove that Mr. A did not intend to drink and drive from the beginning. Therefore, the lawyer in charge submitted objective data, such as the details of calling the substitute driver on the day of the incident and the vehicle location record, and also emphasized that the possibility of reoffending was low and social ties were strong through the diary of abstinence from drinking written after the incident, history of alcohol treatment counseling, and data on family support responsibility. As a result, the court pointed out in the ruling that “the defendant has a history of being fined four times for drunk driving in the past, so his guilt is not light,” but also stated, “he confessed to the crime and showed an attitude of remorse, and comprehensively took into account his age, occupation, family situation, and the circumstances at the time of the incident.” Even in a situation where the possibility of imprisonment was high, Mr. A was able to receive a suspended sentence through explanation of specific facts and a prepared strategy. Attorney Kim Min-soo of Daeryun Law Firm said, "For recidivist drunk driving offenders, the response at the initial investigation stage has a decisive influence. In particular, the level of punishment varies depending on whether the person can explain in detail the circumstances of the driving, post-action response, and sincerity of reflection. If you respond without the legal assistance of a professional lawyer, you may miss important facts or raise the risk of recidivism. “It is dangerous,” he advised. He added, “Especially in the case of repeat offenders, simply admitting the mistake is not enough. From the initial investigation stage, the circumstances of the driving must be clearly outlined, the individual’s social and family circumstances must be explained in detail, and materials that can prove the will to prevent repeat offenders must be systematically submitted.” Global Epic CP Lee Soo-hwan / lsh@globalepic.co.kr ‘Never twice’ Drunk driving: To prevent recidivism, you must seek help from a professional lawyer (Click here) 2026-05-13T18:06:26.055Z https://www.daeryunlaw.com/en/broadcast/5300 When I raised an audit, I was notified of dismissal from my position as bank manager… Request for payment of psychological compensation and alimony The court said, "Conflict occurred within the autonomous committee... Notice of dismissal was a measure taken to resolve the problem." Even if the cancellation of the bank account was determined to be invalid through an administrative lawsuit, the court ruled that it cannot be held liable for damages if there were no illegal elements. On April 29, the 1st Civil Affairs Division of the Gangneung Branch of the Chuncheon District Court lost the plaintiff's appeal for damages filed by A, a man in his 70s, against a local government and its public official, Mr. B. The ruling was made. Mr. A, who was working as a bank manager, requested an audit of some of the participants in the Resident Autonomy Committee event from the Administrative Welfare Center in 2021. The reason was that something inappropriate was done at the event at the time. Then, Mr. B, who was the director of the center at the time, dismissed Mr. A from his position as bank manager on the grounds that he was hindering harmony among residents. Accordingly, Mr. A filed a lawsuit against the city to invalidate the notice of cancellation of the bank account and won. Afterwards, Mr. A filed a lawsuit demanding 30 million won in alimony from Mr. B, claiming that he had suffered mental distress due to the dismissal notice. Mr. B and others refuted that there were no illegal elements in the dismissal process. As a result of the audit, Mr. A's claims were found to be untrue. Nevertheless, he argued that local public opinion worsened when Mr. A did not apologize, and that the dismissal was only decided to resolve the issue. The first trial dismissed Mr. A's claim. The court said, “The truth of the matter raised by the plaintiff was not clear, and this led to conflict and collective complaints both inside and outside the Resident Autonomy Committee,” and that there were no illegal elements in the dismissal, saying, “Therefore, as part of the resident autonomy work, there is a need for the center director to resolve complaints and take measures to resolve conflicts.” Mr. A, who was dissatisfied with this, appealed, but the second trial also dismissed the ruling. Daeryun Seo In-ho of the law firm who represented Mr. B and others The lawyer explained, “Even if the dismissal action is confirmed to be invalid through an administrative lawsuit, in order to file a civil suit for mental damage, an illegal act must be included in the dismissal process.” He added, “It is only recognized as inflicting mental pain if it is clear that it cannot be tolerated under social norms, such as intentionally creating a reason for dismissal.” He added, “It is true that a conflict arose, such as a boycott of the event, due to Mr. A, and Mr. B is only trying to resolve this,” adding, “Mr. “We were able to receive a dismissal order because there was no intention to intentionally drive him out of the bank manager position,” he added.

On the 13th of last month, the Tongyeong Branch of the Changwon District Prosecutors' Office cleared two people, including Mr. A, in his 50s, who was accused of fraud on the 13th of last month. In April, they are accused of stealing 100 million won from victim B and others by deceiving a piece of land in Geoje, Gyeongsangnam-do, which could not receive a construction permit for lodging facilities, as if it could be licensed. Mr. B and others stated that Mr. A and his group lured them into investing by saying that they could make double the market profit by reselling the land after receiving a building permit. They also emphasized that they embezzled an additional 20 million won, saying they needed lobbying funds in relation to the building permit. Mr. A's side fully accused them of denied. The purpose is that there is no fact that investment was induced using market profits as bait. He also countered that aspects related to building permits must be confirmed with civil engineering or architectural design personnel, and that he was doing work completely unrelated to this. The prosecution also determined that Mr. A was not guilty. The land in this case was not land that was impossible to obtain permission for accommodations in the first place, and accordingly, it cannot be said that there was an act of deception by Mr. A and others. Attorney Kim Jin-won of Daeryun Law Firm, who represented Mr. A, said, “The issue in this case was whether or not a building permit was granted, but the reasons for the impossibility were determined based on the subjective review of the public officials in charge, such as concerns about damage to the surrounding natural scenery and aesthetics, so it was difficult for the general public to judge whether or not a building permit was granted.” He added, “Therefore, it cannot be said that Mr. B and others were deceived. “It is,” he said.

Even capture of actual messages of political conflict between family members... Is it humor or illegal? “I hid my resident registration card because I was afraid my dad would vote for the OO party.” “Since my parents voted for the OOO party, I should also have my ID card confiscated.” “If I have a family member who votes OOO, I will hide their ID card first.” Ahead of the 21st presidential election on the 3rd, stories of children who have ‘hidden’ or ‘planned to hide’ their parents’ ID cards are spreading on social networking services (SNS) and online communities. These are mainly related to the politics of their parents or grandparents. He expressed his disapproval of this tendency and argued that “we must prevent them from voting.” There is even a post that says, "My friend is truly a 'passionate steel artist' so his parents have never voted for him," and in some quarters, this behavior is being consumed as humor. According to an online community on the 2nd, in a message between family members revealed by a netizen, the mother complains to her child, "You didn't take your father's ID card with you, did you? You've been making a fuss and calling since the morning saying that your father is gone. Did you take it with you? No way. I can't live with it." In response to this, the child replied, "If you vote for OOO, you will live well. Don't worry." Another writer said, "My parents and I have very different political tendencies, so even when I talk about the candidate I support, there is no response. That's why I plan to hide my parents' ID card for a while on the day of the general election." In response, "Stealing a family ID card is crossing the line," and "If you are uncomfortable with your parents supporting a different party than you, persuading more voters or engaging in political activities is the right way to do it. There was even a post criticizing that “taking away a family member’s right to vote is a clear violation of rights.” ◇Conflicts between generations may result in infringement of rights that cannot be laughed off. It is pointed out that the act of hiding or taking ID cards to prevent family members from voting is difficult to view as a simple happening between families. However, even among legal experts, opinions are divided as to whether this act is actually subject to legal punishment. Jong-eon Noh, a lawyer at Existence Law Firm, said, “Such acts are typical interference with elections,” and added, “Article 237 of the Public Official Election Act stipulates that if the freedom of election is interfered with through hierarchy, fraud, or other unfair means. “It stipulates that criminal punishment is possible,” he explained. Attorney Noh pointed out, “As ID cards are a key means of participating in elections, hiding or taking them can be interpreted as a violation of the Public Official Election Act.” On the other hand, there is also an interpretation that it is difficult to clearly punish a child for unilaterally hiding his/her ID. Attorney Jae-Young Yoo of Daeryun Law Firm explained, "Article 242 of the Public Official Election Act stipulates punishment only in cases where an ID is 'entrusted to or received' for the purpose of interfering with voting, so it is difficult to apply the provision if a child unilaterally hides his or her ID." “It is difficult to admit this simply by temporarily hiding the ID between family members,” he said. “Even if a crime is established, punishment may be exempted according to the provisions of the Criminal Act on Relative Funeral Ceremony.” In the end, it is clear that such an act is a serious matter that can infringe on freedom of elections, but whether actual legal punishment will depend on the specific circumstances and interpretation of the law. ◇"Other opinions must be respected"... The Paradox of Democracy It is pointed out that as likes and dislikes for political parties become part of the generational identity, it can lead to conflicts within the family. Most of the children who have hidden their IDs say, “It makes no sense for my family to vote for OOO,” and view the election as a kind of ‘fight within the family.’ Likewise, the gap between the younger generation and the older generation is deepening as the election season approaches. Lee Jun-han, a professor of political science and diplomacy at Incheon National University, said, "Political conflicts between generations have always existed before. In the past, there were cases where parents prevented their children from voting, but these days, on the contrary, the younger generation is trying to persuade or block their parents. The reason this phenomenon is revealed is because it is shared through SNS and consumed as a kind of play, so it can be seen as a new thing." Professor Lee explained, "The problem is." “Voting is an individual’s constitutional right,” he said, adding, “Even if opinions differ, parents and children must respect each other. We can talk about it as a joke or a game, but we need a culture of respecting each person’s political views to prevent this from actually happening.” At this time, you must bring your ID card to vote. ID cards include resident registration cards, driver's licenses, passports, youth ID cards, civil servant ID cards, and other certificates issued by public institutions that state your photo and date of birth. Mobile ID cards issued through the Government 24 app or PASS app can also be used. However, screen captures are not accepted and must be presented in real time by running the app. Reporter Yoo Ji-hee of Hankyung.com (keephee@hankyung.com)[View full article] “I hid my father’s ID because I was afraid they would vote for me”… ‘Humor’ that crosses the line [Issue+] (Shortcut) 2026-04-30T16:21:42.306Z https://www.daeryunlaw.com/en/broadcast/5292 A man who stole billions of won from investors by promising guaranteed profits was sentenced to prison. According to the legal community on the 2nd, the 12th Criminal Division of the Seoul Eastern District Court recently sentenced Mr. A, the CEO of the company, who was indicted on charges of fraud, to 3 years and 6 months in prison. Mr. A was indicted on charges of embezzling about 2.8 billion won from 16 investors, including Mr. B, by promising guaranteed principal and interest payments over the past five years since 2018. In the process, some It was found that he had demanded additional money from the victims, saying, "There was a problem with the investment product." As a result of the investigation, it was revealed that Mr. A used the money he received from investors to invest in individual stocks and futures, then secured new investors and paid interest to existing members. Mr. A admitted most of the charges, but denied fraud against Mr. B, one of the victims. The investment contract with Mr. B was conducted by an employee of the company he ran. It was an argument that he had never met Mr. B in person. The court did not accept Mr. A's claim. The court said, "Mr. B entered into a contract based on the investment contract written by the defendant. Even if the defendant did not directly recommend investment, it seems likely that a report would have been made at the time the contract was concluded, considering the status of the defendant and the employee," adding, "The money deposited by Mr. He stated the reason for the sentencing, saying, "The victims have suffered for a considerable period of time by stealing money from many victims without the intention or ability to return the money."

The purpose is to provide an integrated solution that goes beyond legal support to psychological stability and healing. While communicating with clients, Daeryun noted that legal disputes cause great psychological shock and pain throughout life. We judged that it was necessary to redefine the role of law firms in that when ordinary people become involved in legal disputes, they can experience great anxiety, stress, and even long-term trauma, and that it also affects their daily lives, interpersonal relationships, and livelihoods. Accordingly, we established a psychological counseling center and established a foundation for receiving psychological treatment from professional counselors. The members of the psychological counseling center are comprised of professionally qualified psychological counselors recognized by the Ministry of Health and Welfare or psychotherapy-related academic societies. The psychological counseling center provides customized treatment to relieve psychological wounds arising from various incidents such as civil and criminal cases, school violence, and industrial accidents and to help clients return to their daily lives more stably. Main counseling topics are ▲divorce, trauma healing due to conflicts within the family ▲psychological treatment related to legal disputes for children and adolescents ▲crime. We support psychological recovery in a wide range of areas related to legal disputes, including trauma recovery for victims and education to prevent recidivism for defendants ▲ psychological recovery after industrial accidents and medical accidents ▲ response to gambling, drug, and drinking addictions ▲ school and workplace adaptation problems and stress management. Counseling is conducted based on a professional psychotherapy process, including psychological testing, one-on-one interpretation counseling, and counseling goal setting that takes into account the client's main complaint. Depending on the request of the client, both face-to-face and non-face-to-face counseling are available. If the client requests it, the psychological evaluation report issued during the treatment process can also be used as materials that are practically helpful in carrying out the case, such as severe punishment petition materials, sentencing materials, and education materials to prevent recidivism. Kim Kuk-il, CEO of Daeryun Management, said, "Legal services are about dealing with people's minds beyond simple legal advice. Through the psychological counseling center, we are setting a new standard for law firms that are responsible for the psychological recovery of clients who face difficult situations. “I will present it,” he said.

Academic Rights Protection Business Agreement (Shortcut) 2026-05-14T04:29:22.368Z https://www.daeryunlaw.com/en/broadcast/5285 At one time, the bar exam was a representative ‘admission gate’ in our society. This is because, without any special background, he was able to enter the legal profession based solely on his skills. This system was not perfect, but at least there was a time when it made the saying, “Risks fly in the face” a reality. It has already been 17 years since the law school system was introduced. At the time, this system was launched with the goal of resolving the problem of ‘failure to pass the civil service examination’ and training legal professionals with practical skills and diversity. The author is also one of those who positively evaluated the abolition of the bar exam. This is because they were clearly aware of the problems with the unrealistic exam environment and inefficient talent selection methods, and they also recognized the need for system reform. However, as time passes, a deep gap is widening between the ideals of the system and the reality. On the surface, law school appears to be a system open to anyone, but in reality, the starting line is different. As of 2025, more than 80% of accepted students at 22 of the 25 law schools nationwide are from universities in the metropolitan area, and more than half are from so-called SKY universities. Only 5% of students graduated from local universities. This is where the gap between formal openness and practical entry barriers is clearly revealed. Furthermore, law schools are gradually losing their original purpose of ‘cultivating professional lawyers with diverse backgrounds and experiences.’ Education is gradually degenerating into an ‘academy-type structure’ aimed only at passing the bar exam, and practice-oriented or convergence-type education has virtually been pushed to the back burner. Some students are attempting to transfer to law schools in the metropolitan area or taking repeated leave of absence to increase their passing rates, and the number of cases of preparing for the exam at private academies is also increasing. As a result, the law school system is becoming more and more ‘publicized,’ and is actually returning to a structure that repeats the ills of the past bar exam. This institutional distortion, combined with the structural limitations of the legal market, is creating bigger problems. The legal market is unable to expand, and as the number of legal professionals with uniform backgrounds and ways of thinking increases, a closed structure in which they compete for limited opportunities is becoming entrenched. This not only hinders the diversity and creativity of the legal profession, but also has a negative impact on the quality and accessibility of legal services provided to the public. Of course, it cannot be said that the bar exam was an ideal system. Long-term exams and excessive competition have caused many social and personal side effects. However, the bar exam was an open structure in which anyone could take the challenge, and it also opened the door to certain opportunities for those from non-metropolitan areas or from non-literary universities. If the current law school system is not even able to replace it, it is a plan worth considering again to discuss the revival of the bar exam or the comprehensive expansion of the preliminary exam. However, in the end, what is important is not the superiority or inferiority of the systems. The question that really needs to be asked is this. “Is the current system actually open to talented young people?” The system should not be an end in itself, but a means to protect the values ​​and ideals it was intended to realize. Law schools cannot be an exception. Now that the presidential election has begun, if the political world talks about youth, fairness, and the restoration of class mobility, the legal training system must also be discussed in a public forum beyond political factions. This is not just a matter of fighting over the existence of the examination system, but a fundamental question of how far Korean society can actually guarantee equality of opportunity. I hope that the promise of change starting from the legal profession will once again give more people hope that “dragons can fly from the beginning.”[View full article] Law Leader - [Contribution] Purpose of introduction: Fading law school, legal training system needs to be completely reformed (link) Korea Law Daily - [Contribution] Purpose of introduction: Fading law school, legal training system needs to be completely reformed (link) 2026-05-14T06:35:35.426Z https://www.daeryunlaw.com/en/broadcast/5284 Class action lawsuits, right or power? (3) Indiscriminate lawsuits to catch trivial cases Black consumer companies aimed at large settlements are struck by the mere fact of being sued. Claims that go beyond social norms and the compensation court does not accept The advantage of class actions is that legal issues can be raised at a relatively low cost. On the other hand, as the threshold for litigation is low, concerns about abuse have been consistently raised. Therefore, concerns are raised that if a balance is not found in the process of promoting the class action system, there may be a series of 'black consumer lawsuits' targeting large settlement amounts. The United States, where class action lawsuits are active, is a representative precedent. According to the legal community on the 29th, cases in which the plaintiff's claims or demands in a class action lawsuit are evaluated as excessive can be confirmed through precedent. In the Tongyang Securities (now Yuanta Securities) class action lawsuit, which was called the "Tongyang Incident" in April last year, the court rejected the claims of class action participants demanding compensation and ruled in favor of the company. This lawsuit was triggered by suspicions that Dongyang Group caused enormous losses to investors in 2013 by selling corporate bonds despite its inability to repay. About 1,200 victims filed a claim for damages against Tongyang Securities, but the court did not acknowledge responsibility, saying, "It cannot be said that there was a false or omitted entry of important information in Tongyang Securities' securities report." The court's judgment was that 'a reasonable investor would have been able to recognize the risk.' This ruling was confirmed upon dismissal of the appeal by the Supreme Court. However, as the legal battle continued for 10 years, both the class action parties and the company suffered losses. The Nate and Cyworld server hacking incidents were similar. At the time, Chinese hackers stole the personal information of 34.9 million people, and about 20,000 of them filed a lawsuit against SK Communications, demanding compensation of 300,000 won per person. However, in 2018, the Supreme Court ruled that the plaintiff lost, saying, "Considering that the company was operating an intrusion prevention system at the time, it cannot be seen that it did not take protective measures to a level that could reasonably be expected based on social norms." A lawsuit for damages related to the unauthorized collection of location information filed by 299 iPhone users against Apple also continued for seven years, but the Supreme Court confirmed the plaintiff's defeat in 2018. The Supreme Court ruled that collected information cannot identify a specific device or user, and that information collection bugs are 'trial and error' that occurred in the process of technology settlement. A judge from a large law firm said, "If class action lawsuits are abused, even unwanted people can be dragged into the lawsuit," and pointed out, "It has long been recognized as an anti-corporate system." The United States, which is considered to have strong consumer protection laws, has a well-developed class action system. Because of this, class action lawsuits in which multiple consumers sue companies are also common. Banks, retailers, and technology companies are their main targets, and tens of thousands of lawsuits are reported each year. However, there is a side effect that such black consumer lawsuits are filed excessively or lawsuits over minor issues are also filed excessively. There is also criticism that litigation costs and settlements lead to a financial burden on companies, which may eventually be passed on to rising consumer prices. A lawyer at a large law firm said, "As the number of plaintiffs increases, the burden on companies increases. Currently, the plaintiffs' claims are different, so it is difficult for the judiciary to proceed with the trial." However, there is also a counterargument that the possibility of a different lawsuit is not high. Ji Min-hee, a lawyer at Daeryun Law Firm, countered, "It is difficult to view the 'overuse' of lawsuits as necessarily harmful, and the excessive lawsuits that may occur in the early stages of introducing the system can be seen as a process of establishing legitimacy and limits through judicial review." At the Ministry of Justice's public hearing on the class action system in December 2020, the Korea Federation of Small and Medium Businesses said, "There is a lot of room for small and medium-sized businesses to be included in class action lawsuits, and 'black consumer lawsuits' may also increase." He argued, “Even if we win the case, consumer trust will be weakened just by being sued.” Reporter Choi Eun-sol (scottchoi15@fnnews.com)[View full article] Anti-corporate sentiment rises and becomes a trial of public opinion... A company that doesn't win even if it wins (Shortcut) 2026-04-25T08:35:41.848Z https://www.daeryunlaw.com/en/broadcast/5281 A manufacturing representative who was booked on charges of signing a supply contract with a counterpart company while hiding financial difficulties and failing to pay the price was acquitted. According to the Asan Police Station in South Chungcheong Province on the 30th, a decision was made not to forward Mr. A, who was booked on fraud charges last month. Mr. A, the registered CEO of a production equipment manufacturer, has been entrusting the actual business to Mr. B, the actual representative. Mr. B, who was in charge of the overall business, has been in charge since around September 2023. It signed a contract with a customer to supply goods worth 210 million won. However, the company was experiencing financial difficulties at the time and did not have the capacity to pay the contracted company. However, Mr. B concealed this fact and proceeded with the contract, and continued to procure goods from the damaged company. In the end, the customer received only 20 million won and did not receive the remaining 190 million won back. As a result, Mr. A and others were charged with fraud. He filed a complaint. Mr. A, who had not received a report on the company's financial situation from Mr. B, denied all charges. It was claimed that all business was involved with Mr. B and that it was done without even discussing whether to proceed with the contract. The police also ruled that Mr. A was not guilty. The reason was, "There is no objective evidence that he participated in criminal activities, so it cannot be said that he colluded with Mr. B to defraud the complainant." Attorney Nam Sang-gwan of Daeryun Law Firm, who represented Mr. A, said, "He operated the company arbitrarily without reporting the difficult operating situation of the company." “The problem arose due to Mr. B,” he explained, adding, “Mr. A is only a representative in name, and there was no intention or execution of joint processing with Mr. B in relation to this case.” He also added, “Mr. A entrusted the management of the company to Mr. B, and Mr. A had no participation whatsoever in the overall aspects, such as carrying out projects and other business operations, selecting business partners, purchasing materials, and sales,” adding, “Therefore, there is no reason for Mr. A to be held criminally responsible.” Jeong Eui-jin (jej88@ikbc.co.kr)[View full article] A manufacturing representative who received goods while hiding financial difficulties was acquitted of fraud charges..

On the 28th of last month, the Daejeon District Prosecutors' Office ordered a non-indictment against Mr. A, in his 50s, who was sent on charges of embezzlement (violation of the Act on the Aggravated Punishment of Specific Economic Crimes, etc.). Mr. A has been conspiring with his spouse, Mr. B, since 2015. Mr. B was accused of embezzling about 2.3 billion won from the account of the company where he worked over 4,700 times over 8 years. First, Mr. B, who was indicted on charges of embezzlement, was sentenced to prison. Afterwards, the company claimed that the two people colluded, saying that Mr. B used most of the embezzled money for Mr. A and through this he subscribed to excessive amounts of insurance. He also emphasized that Mr. A canceled all insurance policies he had subscribed to after Mr. B's arrest. Mr. A denied the charges. He refuted that he only found out about this fact after the case was reported to the police, and that he was not aware of his spouse's crime at all. In addition, he claimed that because the company had seized the insurance money, there was no reason to pay additional money, so the insurance was canceled. The police decided not to forward the case. The police said, “As a result of analyzing Mr. B’s account, there are no circumstances to believe that the suspect was involved in the crime.” and “Given that Mr. B also stated that the suspect had no knowledge of the crime, it is difficult to say that he conspired to commit embezzlement.” The company, which dissatisfied with this, filed an objection and sent the case to the prosecution, but the prosecution also decided not to indict for the same reason. Attorney Byeon Gwan-hoon of Daeryun Law Firm, who represented Mr. A in this case, said, “The family “Because Mr. B was in charge of management, it was difficult for Mr. A to know not only how much money was embezzled but also the fact that the crime occurred,” he said. “We were able to get an acquittal by proving that Mr. A’s expenditures were made up of Mr. A’s earned income, not the embezzled money.” Digital Content Team[View full article] Man accused of conspiring to embezzle with his spouse...

Requests for 'opt-out' of judgment applied to all victims "Realize group rights by improving group litigation system" While 235 users harmed by SK Telecom (SKT) SIM information hacking are filing a lawsuit against SKT for damages, victims are raising their voices calling for the introduction of an 'American-style class action' system where the effect of the judgment applies to all victims instead of the current group lawsuit system. According to the legal community on the 29th, the victims of the SKT group lawsuit and Daeryun Law Firm, their litigation representative, plan to send a legislative proposal to this effect to the National Assembly Legislative and Judiciary Committee and the Science, Technology and Communications Committee on the 30th. They plan to request additional cases as part of their presidential election pledge. The American-style class action lawsuit they are requesting stipulates that when multiple consumers or investors suffer a small amount of damage due to the same or similar causes, the effect of the judgment applies to all victims. A representative files a lawsuit collectively on behalf of all victims. It can be widely used in various fields such as the environment, pollution, consumer damage, and securities trading. The advantages of American-style class action lawsuits include △effective relief of small and large amounts of damage, △increased deterrence for companies and the possibility of recovering damage, and △an 'opt-out method' that receives the effect of the judgment without separate active consent. If any victim files a lawsuit for the benefit of the group and wins, the opt-out is applied unless a separate exclusion request is made. In fact, after the 2021 T-Mobile hacking incident in the U.S., in which 76.6 million customer information, including social security numbers and driver's license information, was leaked, a lawsuit was filed and a settlement of $500 million (approximately KRW 655 billion) was paid. Compensation of up to $2,500 (approximately 3.28 million won) was awarded per individual. On the other hand, among our group lawsuits, consumer group lawsuits stipulate that consumer groups that meet certain requirements can request the prohibition or suspension of illegal acts by business operators that infringe on the rights and interests of many consumers. However, this has the limitation of not being able to claim monetary damages. In addition, unlike the United States, our group lawsuit is a joint lawsuit. Victims must directly participate in the lawsuit to receive compensation. It does not result in punitive damages or automatic full victim relief. They argue that due to these institutional limitations, the actual scale of compensation and social impact of the SKT group lawsuit is bound to be significantly limited compared to the United States. A Daeryun official expressed concern, saying, "American-style class action lawsuits are effective in realizing the rights of the entire group as they can protect passive victims, but due to the limitations of our system, the actual amount of compensation and corporate liability is still lower than in the United States." He added, "We are supplementing the existing consumer group lawsuit system and preparing an opt-out method and anti-abuse prevention device, etc. He urged, “Legislation must be enacted that accepts its merits.” Reporter Yeji Kim (yesji@fnnews.com)[View full article] [Exclusive] 'SKT hacking' class action lawsuit "Requests for an American-style presidential election pledge" (link) 2026-05-14T06:17:43.405Z https://www.daeryunlaw.com/en/broadcast/5277 On the 29th, the Korean Federation of Teachers' Federation and Daeryun Law Firm (representative lawyer Kim Kuk-il, right in the photo) signed a business agreement (MOU) at the Teachers' Assembly Hall in Seocho-gu, Seoul to resolve various disputes and legal issues that may arise in school settings. The main contents of the agreement include ▲ legal consultation for recovery of infringement on teaching rights of members of the Korean Teachers' Association, ▲ legal advice such as requests for legislation and legal interpretation by the Korean Teachers' Federation, ▲ support for legal education for students and teachers, and ▲ promotion and commission of joint research (seminar, etc.) related to teaching rights and law. At the agreement ceremony, Kang Joo-ho, president of the teachers' union, said, “Like the recent Jeju teacher death incident, teachers in the field are suffering from serious malicious complaints and indiscriminate reports of child abuse,” and added, “We expect that this business agreement will provide professional legal support to teachers and greatly help in restoring teaching rights.”[View full article] Lawyers supporting restoration of church rights (link) 2026-04-28T05:02:11.938Z https://www.daeryunlaw.com/en/broadcast/5273 Interview with Cho Young-gon and Yeo Sang-won, representative lawyers of Daeryun Law Firm's Special Department, “An unprecedented hacking incident in history... SKT is proving responsible for intentional and negligent actions and achieving justice.” Emphasized, “No matter what criticism or pressure, we will fulfill our duty as a large law firm on the side of the people.” A month has passed since the unprecedented server hacking incident occurred, but public anger against SK Telecom (SKT) is not going away. This is because the SIM information of approximately 23 million subscribers has been leaked, but no significant countermeasures have been taken. Daeryun Law Firm has initiated criminal charges and accusation procedures to punish those responsible, and is providing practical legal assistance to subscribers who have suffered damage. On the 27th, a civil suit was filed with the Seoul Central District Court seeking compensation of 1 million won per person. Daeryun said the Special Action Headquarters (Special Department) has been handling the case since the beginning of the incident. The Special Department is an organization that organizes professional lawyers under the leadership of the head of the division and specializes in mid- to large-scale cases, and legal veterans with nearly 40 years of experience in the legal field handle cases at the forefront. Cho Young-gon, a former chief of the Seoul Central District Prosecutors' Office and head of the Special Division 2, who is overseeing this litigation, said, "Daeryun is the only large law firm among large law firms that is speaking out and carrying out a class action lawsuit regarding the SKT incident." “Most large law firms are dealing with corporations as clients, so they are showing a passive attitude toward this issue. Even though the damage to the public is clear, they are ignoring the damage, which is extremely irresponsible behavior,” he said. In fact, large law firms are reluctant to get involved with this situation. This is because SK Group, the second-highest ranking company in the business world, could be looked down on for representing the victims. Large law firms have corporations as their main clients, so they are reluctant to take on sensitive lawsuits. Even within the legal community, there is much skepticism about the possibility of winning class action lawsuits. SKT's negligence and causality must be proven, but some say it is not easy to collect technical evidence for secondary damage. Special Department 1 Chief Attorney Yeo Sang-won (Training Institute 17th Class) said, "There is a lot of pressure, such as the fact that it is a lawsuit where you can only receive a few hundred thousand won at most, and that you will definitely lose," but added, "However, this lawsuit goes beyond simply redressing individual rights, and can be said to be a public interest lawsuit to protect the people's right to personal information." emphasized. He said, “The reason we stand against the perception that accusations and lawsuits are like hitting a rock with an egg is to put the brakes on a structure in which citizens’ rights are treated more lightly than corporate profits.” Regarding the amount of alimony, we compared and analyzed it with existing similar cases. Attorney Yeo said, "In personal information leakage cases such as those in banks, the court has generally recognized compensation in the range of 100,000 to 300,000 won. However, this case occurred because the telecommunication service provider failed to safely manage SIM card information in the current situation where mobile phones are used as a means of identity authentication. Therefore, we have decided to hold liability more strictly than in past cases and proceed with the lawsuit by setting the compensation amount at 1 million won per person." He continued, "Because the accident occurred within the scope of the other party's control. He emphasized, "As long as it is difficult to prove that SKT is not at fault, we expect the trial's conclusion to be favorable to our side." In the case of criminal punishment, it was difficult to make specific predictions as the level may vary depending on the police investigation and the Personal Information Protection Committee's investigation. Attorney Cho Young-gon said, “We requested a strict investigation from the public interest perspective regarding SKT’s intentional cost reduction of overall information protection measures and poor response in the reporting process to the Korea Internet & Security Agency.” He added, “There will be differences depending on the application of criminal liability and gross negligence.” Overseas, there is a trend to clarify responsibility in relation to personal information leakage incidents. We are strictly controlling illegal activities by companies by imposing fines amounting to hundreds of billions of won and punitive damages that are heavier than the actual damages received. In fact, T-Mobile, one of the three major U.S. telecommunications companies, also leaked the personal information of 77.6 million people through hacking in 2021. At that time, it decided to pay about 459 billion won in compensation, and affected customers received compensation of up to about 32 million won depending on the amount of damage. Attorney Cho said, "There are many cases overseas where large law firms hold companies accountable through consumer class action lawsuits. Consumers' right to choose, right to know, “We are actively working to ensure that all rights to safety are guaranteed,” he said. “We have not tried, but if we do not spare any legal assistance for the victims, there is a good chance of winning the case.” Attorney Cho also said, “No matter what type of criticism or pressure there is, we will stand on the side of the people who are victims and will not give up and fight the lawsuit until the end.” “We will do our best, and we will fulfill our social responsibility to prevent such problems from occurring again,” he added.

This enactment and revision is a measure to more specifically reorganize the regulatory system for the overall digital health technology, and will require a more strategic response not only from companies but also from stakeholders such as hospitals and research institutes. The newly established and revised guidelines are as follows. ■ Establishment - Digital medical device software approval/examination guidelines ■ Amendment ① Digital medical device approval/examination guidelines to which artificial intelligence technology is applied ② Medical device software approval/examination guidelines ③ Medical device software approval/examination guidelines ③ Digital medical device approval/examination guidelines to which virtual convergence technology is applied ④ Digital therapeutic device approval/examination guidelines ⑤ Digital medical device clinical trial method design guidelines to which artificial intelligence technology is applied These guidelines clearly clarify the review criteria according to technology type as follows. It is differentiated. 1. Machine Learning-enabled Medical Devices (MLMD) The Ministry of Food and Drug Safety determines whether software that uses machine learning technology is a digital medical device by focusing on ① whether the software is likely to cause harm to patients by not operating as intended and ② whether the software guarantees clinical judgment by medical personnel. Specific permission and review requirements include △ characteristics of learning data such as information and expected update cycle △ accuracy of diagnosis using items such as sensitivity, specificity, and AUC △ clinical results based on independence and objectivity of test data sets, etc. 2. Digital medical devices based on virtual convergence technology. Meanwhile, in order for a device to which VR, AR, and MR technologies are applied to be judged as a medical device, the purpose of use must be the diagnosis or treatment of a disease, and the composition and operating principle of the device must be consistent with that purpose. If there is a lack of data explaining the causal relationship for medical efficacy, such as improvement of patient symptoms, this may lead to a request for submission of supplementary data. In addition, verification of safety, such as emergency stop devices, and verification of performance, such as accuracy, reaction speed, and image reproduction, are considered as major review items. 3. Embedded vs. stand-alone software In the established 'Digital Medical Device Software Approval and Review Guidelines', digital medical device software is divided into stand-alone and built-in software, accessories as software, or electronic interfaces, and the application and document submission items are classified according to their characteristics. In the case of embedded types, it is necessary to prepare and submit data on medical device hardware in addition to performance or characteristics, purpose of use, method of use, etc. in accordance with the ‘Regulations on Digital Medical Product Permission, Certification, Reporting, Review and Evaluation, etc.’. Meanwhile, in the case of digital therapeutic devices, they are independent digital medical device software, so they comply with the corresponding approval and review requirements. In addition, considering the characteristics of digital therapeutic devices, it must be possible to submit data considering additional matters such as the scientific (clinical) operating principle of the treatment mechanism, clinical trial results (real-world use evidence (RWE) obtained by analyzing real-world use data (RWD) when necessary after approval), and software verification and effectiveness. 4. Practical response: Regulation design must be carried out in parallel from the planning stage. According to the above guidelines, the importance of establishing a regulatory strategy throughout the entire development cycle of digital medical devices is emphasized. Companies, hospitals, institutions, etc. must be able to strategically respond to the following issues starting from design. - Whether the company's products with AI or virtual convergence technology meet the requirements for digital medical devices - Setting the scope of review according to software classifications designated by the Ministry of Food and Drug Safety - Built-in, stand-alone, or other - Constructing technical data and clinical data according to applicable guidelines - Establishing a post-response system in case of algorithm changes or updates Lack of such structural response may lead to delays in approval, repeated requests for supplementation, and sanctions related to labeling and advertising. Daeryun Medical Pharmaceutical Group, a law firm, is a partner that goes beyond a technology-centered approach to comprehensively design regulatory interpretation and strategy establishment, providing effective advice throughout the entire process of digital medical device approval, review, and follow-up management. The establishment and revision of the 2025 Ministry of Food and Drug Safety guidelines were carried out in the process of establishing regulations for the digital health industry. Technology alone can no longer guarantee market entry, and the ability to strategically prepare for and respond to regulations will determine industry competitiveness.[View full article] [Contribution] Improvement of digital medical device approval and review system and strategic response to industry (Go here) 2026-05-11T08:16:21.256Z https://www.daeryunlaw.com/en/broadcast/5270 There is less than a week left until the 21st presidential election. During this period, both prosecutors and police have no time to rest. This is because they are suffering from the issue of election fraud. In the 20th presidential election held three years ago, a total of 2,001 people were indicted, and 609 of them were sent to trial. This is a 127.9% increase compared to the 878 election offenders booked during the 19th presidential election in 2017. The background to this trend is the spread of false information through social media and an increase in the number of related complaints. Black propaganda and the spread of false facts surrounding candidates are occurring more frequently. The types are also very diverse. Representative examples include △false propaganda about personal information such as a candidate's education, career, military service, etc. △spreading false information about past criminal records △slandering opposing candidates △exaggerated claims about political achievements. Of course, it is difficult to view the simple act of conveying opinions as spreading false information, but false claims that can significantly affect voters' judgment may be subject to legal sanctions. While general defamation by revealing false information is punishable by up to 5 years in prison or a fine of up to 10 million won, under the Public Official Election Act, the crime of publishing false information for the purpose of losing an elected official can be punished by up to 7 years in prison or a fine of between 5 million won and 30 million won. There are many cases where inadvertently posted SNS posts or photos lead to punishment. It is now widely known that taking authentication photos inside a polling place is problematic, but it must also be kept in mind that taking photos of ballots inside a polling place is also a clear violation. Cases of damaging election posters also occur frequently. This can also be punishable by imprisonment for up to 2 years or a fine of up to 4 million won under Article 240 of the Public Official Election Act. There is a notable precedent in this regard. During the 2022 local elections, a voter was indicted on charges of damaging election posters. However, the court found him not guilty on charges of violating the Public Official Election Act. The idea is that the voter in question was illiterate and could not read, so it would have been difficult for him to recognize that the poster was for election campaign purposes. However, since the poster itself has property value, the crime of property damage was recognized and a fine was imposed. It is also important to be aware of the targets that can be used for election campaigning. In addition, it is important to note that according to Article 60 of the Public Official Election Act, public officials, officers at the level of company commander or higher in the reserve force, members of election commissions at each level, etc. are prohibited from campaigning in principle, as they are in a position to maintain the neutrality and fairness of elections. Of course, the Public Official Election Act has a relatively short statute of limitations of 6 months, so some point out that the investigation and prosecution of election offenders is done in a 'crammed manner'. Nevertheless, it is best to avoid unnecessary misunderstandings or violations, and special care is needed to ensure that the essence of democracy is not damaged by familiarizing yourself with the Public Official Election Act in general.

The Ulsan District Prosecutors' Office announced that it had arrested and indicted Mr. A, the head of the investment fraud organization, on charges of telecommunications financial fraud and violating the Electronic Financial Transactions Act in April, and indicted five members of the organization, including those involved in the crime and those responsible for receiving funds, without detention. These people, including Mr. It was discovered that he committed the crime after approaching six people and encouraging them to sign up for a specific site, saying he would match them with aspiring idols or influencers. After registering, the victims were asked to participate in a betting game, saying that they could only meet the person they wanted by raising their level. In the beginning, only a small game participation fee was remitted and the profits were paid straight away, but it was revealed that after the betting amount increased, he received the profits and disappeared. It was confirmed that the amount they extorted from the victims amounted to 600 million won. The prosecution said, "This case is an organized crime with roles divided into the overall plan, execution plan, and money laundering plan," and "The nature of the crime is very bad in that it not only caused financial damage to the victim but also violated the Electronic Financial Transactions Act and the Telecommunications Business Act." Attorney Seo Bong-ha of Daeryun Law Firm, who represented Mr. “The method of inducing subscription and repeated remittance under the pretext of increasing ratings and guaranteed profits is a typical investment-inducing deception method,” he said. “Even if actual profits are initially returned, it is highly likely to be a typical fraud, so if requests for funds are repeated, you should immediately seek advice from the police or a legal expert.” He added, “Recently, it is evolving beyond simple scams disguised as dating to complex forms such as inducing investment or participating in virtual games under the pretense of matching the opposite sex.” He emphasized, “The method of repeatedly requesting money after forming emotional trust is a typical deception method similar to a romance scam, so it is important to quickly seek help from a legal expert if damage is suspected.” Reporter Hwang Jeong-won (jwhwang@mt.co.kr)[View full article] “I will help you meet aspiring idols”… Fraudster who stole 600 million won (Shortcut) 2026-05-10T13:52:00.648Z https://www.daeryunlaw.com/en/broadcast/5268 The court ruled that the act of suddenly requesting compensation 15 years after the incident without proper notice was against the principles of good faith and was unfair. According to the legal community on the 28th, the 1st Civil Affairs Division of the Mokpo Branch of the Gwangju District Court ruled on the 22nd of last month that the government lost the lawsuit seeking compensation filed by the government against five people, including Mr. A, a man in his 30s. They were found guilty of assaulting the next soldier, Mr. B, while performing their military service in 2009. At the time, Unable to overcome the bullying in the compound, Mr. B attempted an extreme decision and eventually fell into a brain-dead state. Mr. B filed a lawsuit for damages for medical expenses, claiming that the incident occurred due to the government's neglect of management and supervision in 2017, and won. Five years later, the government paid about 2.7 billion won in compensation. Afterwards, the government last year claimed about 500 million won in compensation from five people, including Mr. A. According to Article 2 of the National Compensation Act. According to the state, when a public official or a person entrusted with public affairs causes damage to another person intentionally or through negligence, the state must compensate for the damage, and can seek compensation if the public official, etc. is grossly negligent. Mr. A and others countered that the government's claim for compensation was wrong. They said that the government paid medical expenses to Mr. B for a long time but did not inform them of this. In addition, they requested dismissal of the claim, saying that they did not notify them of the progress of the civil suit related to this. The court sided with Mr. A and others. “The plaintiff did not notify the defendant of this for several years while paying hospitalization and treatment expenses, and did not notify the defendant of the possibility of claiming compensation even after the civil judgment was issued,” he said. “The time when compensation was notified to the defendants was about 15 years after the incident occurred,” he said. He continued, “The defendants probably believed that the plaintiff would not pursue compensation and other separate responsibilities,” and added, “It is against the principles of good faith to make compensation related to the case at a time when so much time has passed.” He added. Attorney Cho Seong-geun of Daeryun Law Firm, who represented Mr. A, explained, "It cannot be considered appropriate to shift the financial burden in the name of compensation without any notice when a considerable amount of time has passed since the date of the incident. In addition, at the time of the incident, Mr. A and others were ordinary soldiers, not professional soldiers, and therefore the government had a duty to create an environment to prevent harsh acts from occurring."

According to the legal community on the 27th, the Suwon District Court found A, a woman in her 40s, not guilty at the appellate trial in April on charges of falsifying dictionary records. By June, he was sent to trial on charges of issuing cash receipts without the consent of Mr. B, the restaurant owner. However, Mr. A denied the charges, saying that Mr. B made him report for value-added tax and pay for four major insurances while also ordering him to issue cash receipts and tax invoices. The prosecution requested a fine of 7 million won for Mr. A, but the first trial found him not guilty. In order to issue a cash receipt, you must go through an identity verification process using a mobile phone in the name of the business representative, but this is because there is no evidence that Mr. A obtained Mr. B's mobile phone. The court also determined that Mr. B was aware of the fact that transactions were being made in the name of the company, considering that he instructed Mr. A to pay the value-added tax and attempted to receive a refund. The appellate court also found the original judgment to be correct. When a transaction occurs in the name of a corporation, the issuance of tax invoices and cash receipts is a natural process that follows, so even if there was no separate approval from the final manager, it was judged that it can be interpreted as explicit or implicit consent. Attorney Seung-seok Ko of Daeryun Law Firm, the legal representative of Mr. A, said, “For a charge of forgery of prior electronic records to be recognized, it is necessary to falsely create or change another person's electronic records, and Mr. B delegated a number of tax-related tasks to Mr. A, and this situation was well explained at the trial. He explained, “I could have been found not guilty like the original trial.” Reporter Jeong Cheol-wook[View full article] A person in his 40s was found not guilty on the charge of unauthorized issuance of cash receipts...

Daeryun Law Firm is located in Seongnam Alpha Dome Tower. The Seongnam branch office of the Gyeonggi General Headquarters was relocated and opened. This opening is a strategic measure by Daeryun Law Firm to advance the establishment of a core legal hub in the Gyeonggi area and establish a legal response system specialized for the needs of the Pangyo region, the center of the technology industry. Alpha Dome Tower was built in 2007 as part of the Alpha Dome City development project in which LH (Korea Land and Housing Corporation) and others participated, and is adjacent to Pangyo Station on the Shinbundang Line, providing excellent accessibility from other areas. bragging Kakao, Naver, Snow, and other leading high-tech industries such as IT, gaming, and biotechnology are located here. These companies, which are different from traditional industries, also have new and diverse demands for legal advice. Recently, the need for new industry-specific legal fields such as data protection, AI ethics, corporate mergers and acquisitions, startup restructuring, and intellectual property disputes has been explosively increasing. It is known that leading large law firms are moving in. Through this relocation to Pangyo, Daeryun Law Firm plans to focus more on corporate legal fields such as ▲ corporate law, ▲ labor and personnel, ▲ intellectual property rights, ▲ startup establishment and investment contracts, and ▲ legal DD (due diligence) for tech companies. In addition, Daeryun Law Firm's Seongnam branch office is designed to increase accessibility to legal consultation for nearby office workers. We have deployed a large number of human resources in fields such as criminal, civil, tax, and administration. Kim Kuk-il, CEO of Daeryun Law Firm, said, “Pangyo is a technology cluster where Korea's leading IT companies are concentrated, and it has meaning beyond the simple relocation of a branch office.” He added, “As the technology industry and legal services must be elaborately interconnected, we will provide one-stop comprehensive legal services to corporate clients based on Daeryun's abundant practical experience and efficient work system.” Kim Kuk-il, CEO of Daeryun Law Firm, said, “Pangyo He added, “We will expand our contacts with innovative companies at home and abroad in the Gyeonggi region and establish ourselves as a law firm that grows together by embracing their technological ecosystem in a variety of ways.” Meanwhile, Daeryun Law Firm plans to expand its proven growth model in Korea on the global stage by opening its New York office in the U.S. as early as June and expanding into major overseas cities such as London and Hong Kong.

'Unknown Seoul (written by Lee Kang, directed by Park Shin-woo and Nam Geon, planned by Studio Dragon, produced by Monster Union and High Ground)', which first aired on the 24th, is a lie in which twin sisters who are different in everything except their faces exchange their lives. It is a romantic coming-of-age drama about finding true love and life. Actors Park Bo-young and Park Jin-young, who are attempting to play two roles for the first time, are becoming a hot topic by participating as the main characters, and recorded the highest household viewership rating of 6.5% in the metropolitan area after only two episodes. Dae-ryun supported the filming location of the law firm in the drama. Based on Daeryun's actual work environment, including the lobby and conference room of Park One's Seoul headquarters branch office in Yeouido, the entire main office space was provided, adding to the sense of reality and immersion in the drama. In particular, it is said that it spared no effort in providing legal support at the law firm level, including providing legal advice during the script production process. Using the provision of the filming location for 'Unknown Seoul' as an opportunity, Daeryun expanded the provision of legal advice on drama production and further provided legal advice in various fields including dramas, movies, performances, and sports through the Entertainment and Sports Group. The plan is to strengthen support. Daeryun is expanding its influence within the industry by strengthening legal assistance across the industry, including consulting on various festivals and signing MOUs with entertainment and sports companies. Specifically, we provide help with △content copyright protection and license contract management △legal advice on platforms and distribution △content trademark and brand protection. Kim Kuk-il, CEO of Daeryun, said, "Daeryun is active not only in corporate law, but also in the entertainment and sports fields. We have spared no effort in minimizing legal risks that may arise during the production process of content such as dramas and providing support for successful completion." He added, "We will expand legal service support in various content industries in the future and help creators. “We will help you work in a more free and safe environment.” Reporter Cheon Ju-young (young1997@mydaily.co.kr)[View full article] My Daily - Daeryun, provided filming location and legal advice for tvN’s ‘Unknown Seoul’ (link) Sports Kyunghyang - ‘Unknown Seoul’ filming location and legal advice It turns out...

Since this crime only provides for imprisonment without a fine, once the special injury charge is applied, efforts should be made to reduce the sentence as much as possible. The sentence is also not easy. Pursuant to this law, if you hit and injure a person with a dangerous object, you will be punished by imprisonment for not less than 1 year but not more than 10 years. In addition, depending on the severity of the damage, a prison sentence of between 2 and 20 years is possible. In particular, unlike general assault, special injury is not a crime of impunity or pro-crime, so investigation and prosecution is possible even without a complaint from the other party. The actual case I was responsible for is explained as follows. While defendant A was drinking with a work acquaintance, he overheard gossip about his family and committed violence. The problem is that Mr. A's actions did not stop at simple assault. At the time, Mr. A could not control his anger and swung a dangerous object nearby, which caused injuries to the victim's face and head. After being sent to the prosecution, Mr. A was fortunately able to reach an amicable agreement with the victim. As the victim also did not submit a medical certificate, the case appeared to be nearing completion. Although special injuries were applied, an agreement was reached and, considering that it was a first offense, a deferred indictment or summary indictment was quite possible. However, the prosecution's judgment was different. A formal trial was requested and a prison sentence was requested. Accordingly, the court was also in a situation where it could sentence a prison sentence. During the trial, the author emphasized that Mr. A confessed to all of his crimes and received forgiveness from the victim, that his family and friends were hoping for leniency, and that he may be fired from his job if he is sentenced to prison. As a result, I was able to safely receive a deferred sentence (a sentence that suspends the sentence and is exempted after a certain period of time). As in the case above, criminal proceedings cannot be avoided for special injury crimes even if an agreement is reached with the victim. Therefore, one should not hastily judge that the case will be resolved through agreement alone. Therefore, if you are accused of a special injury crime, you should try to lower the punishment as much as possible. However, this process requires a strategic approach and the assistance of experts such as special injury lawyers. Attorney Choi Hyeon-deok of Daeryun Law Firm in Pyeongtaek said, "The first thing to check with an expert is whether the other party provided a cause. If the incident occurred due to the other party's continuous insults, verbal abuse, etc., you can resolve the situation to your advantage." He added, "You should also look at justifiable defense and excessive defense. If it is acknowledged that the other party's actions were intended to protect oneself due to preemptive assault, you can expect a reversal of the situation or a reduced sentence. Other reflections and family circumstances. “We can request a reduction in the level of punishment through explanations, petitions, etc.,” he said.

This seminar was held online and offline, and a total of 119 companies, including the association's partners, attended. The seminar began with greetings from attorney Gye-jun Son, head of the Daeryun Corporate Legal Group, and attorney Seo-hyung Lee, head of the Medical Pharmaceutical Group. Attorney Lee said, "Today's seminar is a very timely opportunity to consider the intersection of industrial strategy and regulatory trends beyond a simple explanation of the system," and added, "I hope this opportunity will help each company set a strategic direction." He then spoke. Customs expert Jae-ho Myung explained the changing customs investigation trends and obligations to comply with the Foreign Exchange Transactions Act by transaction type, and made a presentation on foreign exchange risks and response strategies in the medical and beauty device industry. Commissioner Myeong is a customs broker and has accumulated expertise while in charge of customs trade consulting for a number of companies. In addition, he is prominent in the customs field by working as an expert member of the International Customs and Trade Advisory Center (ICTC), an export deliberation member of the Defense Acquisition Program Administration, and an FTA consultant and full-time lecturer at the Korea Customs Service and Korea International Trade Association. Regarding the upcoming regular foreign exchange inspection, he said, "The Korea Customs Service has been selectively inspecting only illegal foreign exchange transactions, but starting this year, it is establishing and implementing a foreign exchange inspection system on a regular basis by industry," adding, "Fields such as medicine and beauty with high imports and exports are receiving intensive inspections. He then explained, "We will be a target for payment delays due to double regulation of medical devices, foreign exchange control and remittance regulations in countries subject to export and import, and prior approval based on sanctioned countries and sensitive technical information. We then introduced matters that companies should keep in mind during the import and export process," said Kim Gook-il, CEO of Daeryun, saying, "With the introduction of regular foreign exchange inspections by the Korea Customs Service, the proactive response capabilities of import and export companies have become more important than ever." “I hope this serves as an opportunity to take the lead in responding,” he said.

According to Daeryun Law Firm on the 27th, 235 plaintiffs announced that they filed a civil suit seeking compensation of 1 million won per person. The lawsuit will be overseen by lawyer Cho Young-gon, a former Seoul Central District Prosecutors' Office, and lawyer Yeo Sang-won, who will act as legal representatives. Attorneys Cho and others submitted the complaint to the Seoul Central District Court on the same day and said, "Fairness and equity in our society must be realized from trials and lawsuits," and added, "In that sense, this lawsuit is a public interest value for which we are involved." He continued, "Overseas, large law firms are taking part in consumer class lawsuits against global companies such as Google and Facebook. He added, "There are successive cases where we have taken the lead in winning lawsuits," adding, "This shows that class action lawsuits are not a battle that can never be won, and that companies have no choice but to take responsibility when the people join forces." He added, "This SKT class action lawsuit goes beyond the issue of information leaks and is a national task that asks about justice and fairness in the law." He also emphasized, "This lawsuit is a public interest lawsuit to protect the people's right to personal information." A complaint was filed on charges of breach of trust and obstruction of official duties. He then received his first police investigation as a complainant at Namdaemun Police Station in Seoul on the 21st. Daeryun explained that the reasons for setting the amount of damages were ▲ the largest scale of information leak ever, ▲ reduced security management costs, and ▲ the inconvenience suffered by subscribers due to SIM replacement. Daeryun announced that starting with this lawsuit, it plans to identify applicants and file continuous complaints.

On the 1st, Daeryun filed charges against SKT CEO Yoo Yeong-sang and the head of security for breach of trust and breach of trust. He was charged with obstruction of official duties. On the 21st, I responded to the accuser's investigation at Namdaemun Police Station. Group Leader Son is the lawyer in charge of this case. As a result of this accident, public anxiety about the information protection capabilities of not only SKT but also domestic telecommunications companies and platform companies has increased. Immediately after this paper's first report on the 21st ([Exclusive] Did BPF Door, the malicious code that attacked SKT, infiltrate KT servers as well?), the government launched a direct investigation into KT and LG U+. In addition to the two telecommunication companies, platform companies such as Naver, Woowa Brothers, Kakao, and Coupang are also subject to investigation. Group Leader Son said, “If customer information is leaked through hacking of other telecommunications carriers or platform companies other than SKT, we will hold them accountable through complaints and complaints,” and added, “They are all in the same context in terms of corporate social responsibility.” Regarding SKT’s insufficient investment in information protection, he said, “It is not illegal in itself, but it can be seen as a breach of trust.” As the No. 1 business operator, he said. The point is that SKT, which is well aware of the importance of information protection and investment costs, neglected the storage and use of subscribers' information as a person handling entrusted affairs such as storage and utilization of SIM card information. The explanation is that this can be seen as maximizing their own profits. In fact, according to the Korea Internet & Security Agency (KISA) information security disclosure, the annual information security investment amount announced by SKT in 2024, combined with its wired communication subsidiary SK Broadband, is approximately 86.7 billion won. This is 5.9% of the investment in information technology, which is lower than KT (6.4%) and LG U+ (6.6%). Government certification systems such as ISMS are insufficient for telecommunication companies... “Need to strengthen obligations” According to IANS Research, the proportion of investment in information security by American companies last year was 13.2%. All three domestic telecommunications companies are less than half of those in the U.S. Group Chairman Son mentioned the need to improve domestic information protection-related laws and systems. He said, “This accident revealed that the government certification system does not properly evaluate corporate security capabilities and does not provide good follow-up management.” In particular, the ‘ISMS/ISMS-P Simple Certification System’, which was introduced in July 2024 to ease the burden of certification acquisition for small and medium-sized businesses, is not sufficient to check the information protection posture of major telecommunication operators. He said, “There is a need for a paradigm shift from focusing on ex-post punishment to focusing on proactive prevention.” “We must impose obligations, and if they are violated, we must impose effective sanctions that threaten our existence,” he emphasized. Meanwhile, after graduating from Seoul National University, Group Leader Son passed the civil service examination and worked at the Fair Trade Commission for 10 years. After passing the bar exam, he worked at Gwangjang Law Firm and is currently working as the head of the Daeryun Corporate Legal Group. While serving at the Fair Trade Commission in 2009, he participated in sanctions related to allegations of unfair trade in code division multiple access (CDMA) chip rebates, which imposed a large fine on Qualcomm of the United States. Reporter Kang Hyun-joo (jjoo@boannews.com) SKT accusation lawyer: “KT and LGU+ will also be sued if hacking is revealed” (link) 2026-05-12T10:56:16.794Z https://www.daeryunlaw.com/en/broadcast/5253 Fossil fuel investment amount and reduction target data undisclosed, sustainable carbon price signal function paralyzed… Even private investors are at a loss: ‘Converting 30% of emissions credits to paid fees, introducing Korean-style market stabilization reserve (K-MSR), and expanding the benchmark by 75%’ are the ‘surgical tools’ of the 4th reform plan put forward by the government. However, it is pointed out that no matter how sophisticated the system is, it is useless if the 420 trillion won in policy finance and 1,300 trillion won in public funds do not move based on the same data. The Bank of Korea's stress test warned that the bank's losses could amount to up to 28.7 trillion won if it does not respond to climate change. To prevent these enormous losses, a systematic response from the financial sector is essential. However, one common point is reached in data transparency, which should be the starting point of the response. It is the ‘absence of numbers’. It is pointed out that the national pension system, which manages 1,000 trillion won, is actually like sailing without one's own compass. The National Pension Service declared a coal phase-out in 2018, but the balance of fossil fuel investments, financial emissions, and reduction goals are still shrouded in mystery. In fact, the National Pension Service conducted a research service to set standards for coal phase-out, but has not even disclosed the results. A research director at a domestic ESG evaluation agency pointed out, “If the National Pension Service is quiet, other pension funds and insurance companies will also postpone investments, and eventually the carbon price signal in the capital market will turn off.” The silence of the country's largest institutional investor leads to paralysis of the entire market. The situation overseas is very different. Norway's sovereign wealth fund announced that it would disclose all emissions from its portfolio in real time and reduce intensity by 55% by 2030. Dutch pension fund ABP presented a roadmap to sell all companies with coal and tar sands sales exceeding 5% by 2025. Even Japan's GPIF releases ESG investment-related reports every year and announced that it will expand 'Scope 3 coverage' (covering indirect sources such as supply chains of a company's total greenhouse gas emissions) to 100% by 2027. It is not impossible even in Korea. Korea Investment Corporation (KIC) is transparently disclosing its green bond holdings of $4.1 billion. The transparency gap is revealed as a cold reality. When looking at whether to disclose the balance of fossil fuel investments, the National Pension Service is still silent, while all major overseas pension funds are disclosing detailed information. Choi Hwan-seok, an expert member of the National Assembly's Political Affairs Committee, said, "When the next government takes office, the specific scope and timing of fossil fuel investment and financial emissions disclosure by public funds such as the National Pension Service will need to be discussed with the financial authorities. This is an issue that requires consultation with the relevant standing committees, the Retaliation Committee and the Strategy and Finance Committee." Park Hee-jeong, head of Daeryun Law Firm's Legislative Strategy Division, said, “A lot of changes could come depending on what the Political Affairs Committee, Climate Crisis Special Committee, and Foreign Exchange Committee have in the second half of this year and the first half of next year.” If you hide the numbers, the market will price that uncertainty high. ESG funds have no choice but to set a high risk premium because they cannot obtain emissions data from large companies invested by the National Pension Service. The aftermath comes back to the deterioration of capital ratios in the financial sector. The large-scale financial losses warned by the Bank of Korea ultimately result from a lack of data transparency. International credit rating agencies are also warning, “If carbon regulations are strengthened after 2027, discounts will be applied to assets that do not disclose data.” To speed up the transition, the national pension must be opened first. As the cases of Norway and the Netherlands show, once disclosure begins, companies and asset management companies rush to improve emissions. The government is also providing policy support. The Ministry of Environment and the Exchange drew up a plan to drastically reduce the total amount during the 4th plan period, increase paid allocation, and prevent a sharp decline in prices with market stabilization reserves. However, even the huge policy finance worth 420 trillion won can become proper green capital only when the window called data is opened. Even if emissions prices become realistic and the market stabilization device operates, it is data that ultimately moves money. Only when the National Pension Service transparently discloses fossil fuel investments and financial emissions, and when the public and private sectors are able to judge risks and opportunities by looking at the same information, can the Korean capital market find a solution to becoming a ‘post-climate finance underdeveloped country.’ Reporter Kim Soo-hwan (ksh@viva100.com)[View full article] [Underdeveloped country in climate finance ②] National pension, green money ‘blind investment’… The biggest obstacle to normalizing the emissions market (link) 2026-05-10T16:17:18.867Z https://www.daeryunlaw.com/en/broadcast/5252 Investigation of tax evasion by large corporations, reputation as an ‘investigative expert’… The amount of damages for ‘corporate experts’, including corporate crimes, is set at 1 million won per person… The first round of civil lawsuits was filed on the 26th. “The only class action lawsuit by a large law firm... We will correct chronic problems and protect the rights of the people.” Daeryun Law Firm, which is in the process of legal proceedings in relation to the SK Telecom (SKT) SIM information hacking incident, announced on the 26th that it will take full action by appointing lawyer Young-gon Cho, a former chief of the Seoul Central District Prosecutors' Office, to take full action. Previously, on the 1st, Daeryun accused SKT CEO Yoo Yeong-sang and the head of security for malfeasance of office. He was charged with obstruction of official duties and other charges. In addition, as mentioned at a press conference on the 22nd, they announced that they plan to file a civil suit seeking compensation of 1 million won per person at the Seoul Central District Court at 10 am on the 27th. As the security system of Korea's largest telecommunication company was disabled, Daeryun viewed it as a serious social problem that goes beyond the company's security management responsibility and selected attorney Cho Young-gon, who has extensive related experience, as the overall leader of this case. Attorney Cho was involved in the case, including the collection of slush funds from former presidents and the investigation of the Four Major Rivers while serving as chief prosecutor. It has led to major events. In particular, he led the investigation into tax evasion by large corporations and developed a reputation as a 'investigative expert.' Even after retirement, he is evaluated as an expert in various fields related to corporate crime through his consulting and litigation experience at large law firms. Furthermore, Daeryun plans to take an organized response to this incident centered on the Special Action Headquarters (Special Department), an internal strategic organization. The Special Department is an organization designed to handle medium to large-sized cases that are difficult to respond to at the individual group level, such as public issues and social disputes, and is increasing the expertise and efficiency of case handling by organizing specialized lawyers appropriate for the field. In particular, Attorney Cho is serving as the head of the Special Department, so it is expected that he will be able to respond more strategically through more organic collaboration with members of the corporate legal group who are analyzing the case. In the case of U.S. telecommunication company customers who have experienced large-scale personal information leaks in the past, large amounts of money were filed through class action lawsuits. Compensation has been received. T-Mobile, one of America's top three telecommunications companies, experienced a leak in 2021 where the personal information of 76.6 million customers was leaked. Accordingly, customers filed a lawsuit in court, and T-Mobile ended up paying $350 million (approximately 459 billion won) to customers, up to $25,000 (approximately 32 million won) per person. Daeryun Law Firm believes that the scale of this SKT personal information leak is greater than past incidents. The position is that it has caused realistic inconvenience to the public by failing to fulfill its information protection obligations as a telecommunication business operator, and that such inconvenience and anxiety will continue for a considerable period of time in the future, so this is an issue that requires stricter responsibility than past cases. Attorney Young-gon Cho said, "Although personal information leaks have been repeated for several years, actual punishment or compensation has been minimal in Korea, and as a result, the damage is being passed on to the public." “I will do my best to protect the rights and interests of the people by acting as a representative of the people to correct the structure,” he said.

Sudden litigation after 2 years of voluntary resignation: “Under the law, I am not considered an employee… 3 years have passed since the statute of limitations for severance pay.” The former CEO, who voluntarily stepped down due to management corruption, filed a lawsuit against the company claiming unfair dismissal, but it was not accepted. On the 17th of last month, the Tongyeong branch of Changwon District Court (Chief Judge Seung-won Lee) filed a lawsuit against the company by Mr. A, a former CEO of a transportation company, as the plaintiff. The case was ruled against. In addition, claims for severance pay amounting to approximately 260 million won were also dismissed. Mr. A was in charge of all administrative affairs, including general affairs, personnel, and accounting, at the company in April 2002, and became a shareholder when he acquired shares with the conversion to a corporation in March 2004. Afterwards, Mr. A served as an internal director and took office as CEO in 2015. Mr. A originally held the position and role of CEO for the designated term, but resigned as CEO in 2021 after misconduct, including embezzlement of public funds, was revealed. However, Mr. A suddenly filed a lawsuit about two years later, claiming unfair dismissal. At the same time, he requested severance pay for the period of time he worked as an employee before taking office as CEO. In addition, he mentioned the collective agreement stipulating that retired workers can be rehired as commissioned workers, and said that additional wages that he would have received while working as commissioned workers should be paid additionally. The company countered that it began raising the issue of unfair dismissal when Mr. A was investigated by the investigative agency on charges of embezzlement and other charges. The court sided with the company. Chief Judge Lee dismissed the claim, saying, “The plaintiff cannot be considered an employee as specified in the Labor Standards Act because he was not in a dependent employment relationship with the defendant during the period he served as CEO and the period immediately before his resignation and dismissal,” and “Even though his status as an employee was recognized when he worked as an executive or employee before serving as a director, there is no data showing the average wage of the plaintiff at that time, and the claim was extinguished because he did not claim severance pay within 3 years from the date of retirement.” Daeryun Law Firm, the company’s legal representative. Attorney Cho Ik-cheon explained, “At the time of his resignation, Mr. A had never applied for relief from unfair dismissal or filed a lawsuit to confirm invalidity of dismissal with the Labor Relations Commission, and he was suddenly claiming unfair dismissal two years later. However, it should be seen that Mr. A resigned voluntarily and expressed his intention to terminate the delegation contract in the relationship between management and executives.” He continued, “Accordingly, there is no reason for Mr. A to be entitled to an amount of wages or severance pay.” He added, “Company regulations also include the fact that there has been no history of severance compensation being paid to the CEO.” “It was acknowledged and the claim was dismissed,” he added.

Mr. A, the owner of a junk shop who was sent to the prosecution on charges of purchasing waste aluminum stolen by customers for several years, was cleared of the charges thanks to the ledger that recorded the transaction details. According to the legal community on the 26th, the Suwon District Prosecutors' Office purchased 219 tons of waste aluminum scrap worth 600 million won from Mr. B, an employee of an aluminum company, last month. A non-indictment decision was made against Mr. A, a man in his 60s who was suspected of habitual acquisition of stolen property. Mr. A had been continuously buying waste aluminum for about 5 years since 2018, but later, when the item was revealed to be stolen goods from Mr. B, Mr. A was also investigated. According to Article 362 of the current Criminal Act, acquiring, transferring, or transporting stolen goods can result in imprisonment of up to 7 years or a fine of 15 million won. During the investigation, Mr. A is known to have denied the charges, saying that he was also deceived by Mr. B. The prosecution found that Mr. A was not guilty on the basis that the purchase amount and quantity were written in detail in the transaction history ledger prepared by Mr. A, and that the disposal price was transferred by bank transfer rather than cash. The prosecution said, "Considering that Mr. B, who clearly revealed his affiliation to Mr. A, actually worked at an aluminum processing company, it appears that it would have been difficult for Mr. A to recognize the aluminum in question as stolen goods." Attorney Choi Han-sik of Daeryun Law Firm, who served as Mr. A's legal representative, said “In the case of acquiring stolen property, the decision must be made taking into account all circumstances, including the personal information of the seller and the nature and type of the product,” he said. “It was difficult for Mr. A to recognize it as stolen property, but we had a good result by explaining well whether or not business negligence was recognized.” Intern reporter Jeong Ye-eun (ye9@kyeonggi.com)[View full article] The owner of the junk shop who purchased stolen aluminum... The ledger was saved (link) 2026-05-13T11:39:37.180Z https://www.daeryunlaw.com/en/broadcast/5244 It is difficult to return the deposit, but reality is indicted only for 'violation of the real estate agent law'. Fine expert says, "It is difficult to prove accomplices... The level of punishment under the real estate agent law must be increased." In Busan, real estate agents and real estate assistants who were put on trial on charges of brokering a large number of buildings for lease fraud were sentenced to fines one after another. There are many voices demanding that those who provided the primary cause of the lease fraud be severely punished, but the reality is that only fines are imposed, raising criticism that the punishment should be strengthened. According to the legal community, on the 26th, Judge Beom-yong Lee of the 4th Eastern Branch of the Busan District Court sentenced five people, including a real estate agent A and a real estate agent assistant, to fines of 2 million to 7 million won each, who were indicted on charges of violating the Licensed Real Estate Act. While working as a licensed real estate agent and a brokerage assistant, the return of the deposit is not guaranteed as there is collateral for an officetel worth the price of the building, but he is accused of inducing a provisional contract by hiding this fact during the brokerage process. Afterwards, when the tenants learned about this fact on the day of the contract, Mr. A and others are accused of deceiving them again by saying, "The sale price of the officetel building is over 8 billion won, so there is no problem with returning the deposit." However, the appraised value of the building in question is 4.8 billion to 5.3 billion won. In comparison, the basic mortgage amounted to 5.2 billion won. In fact, Mr. B (40s), the officetel landlord brokered by Mr. A and others, did not return the 1.745 billion won rental deposit of 17 tenants, and the tenants introduced by them became victims of a lease fraud overnight. In addition, Mr. A and others were involved in a 18 billion won lease fraud with a group of Mr. C (40s), a 15.5 billion won lease fraudster. It is known that they also brokered dozens of buildings in the case of Mr. D (female in his 50s), who was sentenced to 15 years in prison. In this process, Mr. A and others are said to have reassured tenants by saying things like, "Mr. C's father is the CEO of a successful small business, so it is safe" or "There are several other buildings besides here. All senior loans are held by a corporation, so they are safe," and then induced them to sign real estate contracts. Afterwards, the tenants tried to sue them, but at the time of signing the contract for 2020-2023. It is known that as recordings of conversations or messages shared with licensed real estate agents disappear over time, they either failed to file a complaint, or even if they filed a complaint, most of them were acquitted. Previously, in March, Criminal Division 3 of the Western Branch of the Busan District Court sentenced real estate agents and brokerage assistants who were indicted on charges of violating the Licensed Real Estate Agents Act to fines of 2 to 5 million won. They are also known to have brokered many of the buildings in Mr. D's case, but the brokerage assistants brokered the buildings in the name of the licensed real estate agent. He was only indicted on the charge and was only punished with a fine. Victims of jeonse fraud claim that the real estate agents who provided the primary cause of the jeonse fraud should also be punished as accomplices in the jeonse fraud, but the reality is not easy. Attorney Lee Seung-chan of the Daeryun Law Firm said, “The essence of the crime of large-scale jeonse fraud is ‘fraud.’ Therefore, in order to punish a licensed real estate agent as a principal or accomplice to fraud, it must be proven that it falls under the elements of the crime of fraud, but in reality, intentionality of the fraud must be proven. “It is very difficult to prove,” he explained. “For this reason, it is not easy to punish real estate agents or assistant real estate agents who brokered a large number of buildings for lease fraud as accomplices to lease fraud.” Experts suggested raising the level of punishment under the Licensed Real Estate Act as a realistic alternative. Dong-A University Graduate School of Real Estate Kang Jeong-gyu said, “Although it is a small number, there are cases where some vicious real estate agents are abusing lease fraud,” adding, “(Jeonse fraud) crimes will be investigated in the future.” “In the interest of prevention, there is a need to strengthen the punishment provisions of the Licensed Real Estate Agent Act, and if similar cases continue to occur, there is an alternative to creating detailed punishment provisions in the Licensed Real Estate Agent Act to provide for aggravated punishment in cases related to jeonse fraud.” Reporter Kwon Tae-wan (kwon97@newsis.com)[View full article] Newsis - Licensed real estate agent who brokered a large number of buildings for lease fraud, punishment is 'a soft bat' (link) Wide Economy - Licensed real estate agent who brokered a large number of buildings for lease fraud, punishment is 'soft' (Click here) 2026-05-12T04:55:51.261Z https://www.daeryunlaw.com/en/broadcast/5243 ‘occupational disease’ Business owners excluded from rate reflection, Controversy over benefits in approval and disposition lawsuits Although the system has changed, court decisions are mixed, and whether employers will be disadvantaged in their business if an employee gets injured or falls ill while working at the workplace., I can't help but be afraid that industrial accident insurance premiums will rise.. Insurance premiums increase due to industrial accidents 'Individual performance rate'is related to. past 3The amount of industrial accident insurance benefits paid for processing industrial accidents compared to the total amount paid in annual industrial accident insurance premiums.(industrial accident insurance benefits) The ratio of the total amount is 85%If it exceeds, the industrial accident insurance premium rate increases..In the past, industrial accident insurance benefits paid for occupational diseases were also considered when calculating industrial accident insurance premium rates.. Therefore, business owners had an incentive to conceal industrial accidents in order to avoid premium surcharges.. 2018year 12month 31Enforcement Decree of the Act on Collection of Insurance Premiums for Employment Insurance and Industrial Accident Compensation Insurance(Enforcement Decree of the Employment and Industrial Accident Insurance Premium Collection Act) According to the revision, industrial accident insurance money paid due to occupational diseases has been changed to not be considered in calculating the industrial accident insurance premium rate.. The industrial accident was recognized as an occupational disease, preventing the employer's industrial accident insurance premium from increasing..According to the revised enforcement ordinance 2019year 1month 1At first glance, there appears to be no disadvantage to employers even if occupational diseases are recognized as industrial accidents.. Some recent lower court rulings(Seoul Administrative Court 2022Guhap64232 judgment, Seoul Administrative Court 2024Guhap78122 judgment, etc.)For this reason, it believes that employers have no legal interest in contesting the Korea Workers' Compensation and Welfare Service's decision to approve industrial accidents for occupational diseases, and is therefore dismissing the suit to cancel the industrial accident decision.. The basis for the lower court rulings is generally as follows.. ① The Korea Workers' Compensation and Welfare Service's industrial accident approval is for workers or their surviving family members., The business owner is not the direct counterparty of the disposition..② Even if industrial accident insurance premiums are paid due to occupational diseases according to the enforcement ordinance of the revised Employment Industrial Accident Insurance Premium Collection Act, the industrial accident insurance premium does not increase because it does not affect the individual performance rate of the employer..③ The fact that industry-specific rates may increase due to an increase in the total amount of industrial accident insurance benefits for the business type to which the business owner belongs due to the approval of industrial accident compensation for occupational diseases does not directly affect the business owner., It cannot be considered that there is a legal interest..④ Even if there is an industrial accident approval for an occupational disease, in lawsuits such as claims for damages filed by workers or their surviving family members against the employer, the employer claims that it is not an occupational disease., can prove.However, even if the employer's industrial accident insurance premium does not increase due to industrial accident approval for an occupational disease,, There are still lower court rulings that believe that employers have a legal interest in contesting the approval of industrial accidents..In a lawsuit filed by an employee against the Korea Workers' Compensation and Welfare Service seeking cancellation of the Corporation's industrial accident disapproval, a lower court ruling allowed the employer's auxiliary participation, recognizing that the employer has a legal interest in whether or not to cancel the industrial accident disapproval.(Seoul Administrative Court 2022Guhap54405 judgment), 2019year 2month 7In a lawsuit in which the Korea Workers' Compensation and Welfare Service granted industrial accident approval for an occupational disease, the employer objected and sought cancellation of the decision against the Korea Workers' Compensation and Welfare Service, the lower court ruled that the employer had a legal interest in seeking cancellation of the decision.(Seoul Administrative Court 2019club71113 The ruling upheld the employer's claim and, Seoul High Court, the appellate court in this case 2023who40993 The ruling dismissed the employer's claim.. This case was confirmed by the Supreme Court and the appeal was dismissed.) The back is like that.. Even if occupational diseases are excluded from the record of industrial accidents, employers should be considered to have a legal interest in contesting the Korea Workers' Compensation and Welfare Service's decision to approve medical care benefits for occupational diseases.. The specific grounds are as follows..① The amount of insurance benefits determined to be paid for occupational diseases is the amount of industrial accident insurance benefits. 'Individual rate performance' Even if it is not reflected in the calculation, it may be reflected in the industry-specific rate of the industry to which the business owner belongs.. Ultimately, there is room for individual business owners’ insurance premiums to rise as well..② In reality, the Korea Workers' Compensation and Welfare Service's decision to approve medical care benefits for occupational diseases serves as a strong basis for acknowledging the basic facts in a claim for compensation filed by an employee against an employer.. Regarding the effectiveness of administrative acts that are a preliminary issue, the Supreme Court "No matter how illegal an administrative disposition is, no one can deny its effect without permission, except in cases where the defect is so serious and obvious that there are reasons to consider it invalid., The fairness of such an administrative act is not the same as the res judicata of a judgment, but when a defect in an administrative act that falls within the objective scope of the fairness is only a reason for cancellation, the effect of the disposition is denied unless the disposition is canceled, and the resulting gain cannot be said to be an unfounded gain under the law.(supreme court 2006all83802 judgment)"It takes a consistent position that. If the Korea Workers' Compensation and Welfare Service's illegal approval of medical care benefits cannot be revoked, it will be realistically difficult for the employer to assert that the disease is not an occupational disease due to the fairness of the administrative disposition in a lawsuit for damages filed by an employee against the employer due to an occupational disease..③ If the Korea Workers' Compensation and Welfare Service is unable to contest the decision to wrongly determine whether an occupational disease exists, the worker's death will be subject to the Occupational Safety and Health Act.2Preparation1like, my2Applies to industrial accidents and serious accidents.

These statistics show that citation rates in administrative litigation are relatively low..In this situation, if a litigant is not even recognized as qualified to stand trial, he or she may have to endure realistic disadvantages.. This will come as a big regret to the parties involved..The side effects of recognizing plaintiff qualifications too broadly in administrative litigation must be fully considered., At the same time, judicial procedures for redressing people's rights should not be excessively restricted.. We hope that the difference in position between the lower court rulings on the suitability of the plaintiff in the suit to cancel the approval of medical care benefits will be resolved as soon as possible so that both employers and workers can be guaranteed their fair rights..

Daeryun said that the number of users who have inquired about participating in the lawsuit so far is 12,000. It also said that it plans to request a compensation of 1 million won per plaintiff, and that it plans to continue the second recruitment until the end of this month. Previously, Daeryun said. The side also reported SKT CEO Yoo Young-sang and others to the police on charges of breach of trust and obstruction of official duties through hierarchy.

Unlike previous wage and collective bargaining where the main issues were extending the retirement age, shortening working hours, and expanding union activities, difficulties between labor and management are expected this year over the normal wage. The reason why ordinary wages emerged as a major topic came from the ruling of the Supreme Court en banc in December last year. The key issue of the ruling is the abolition of the ‘fixity’ requirement in the standard for determining ordinary wages. The reason why many companies paid attention to this ruling is because, 10 years after the Supreme Court's en banc ruling on ordinary wages in 2013, a completely different interpretation from the existing interpretation was made. Previously, three requirements of regularity, uniformity, and fixity were considered when judging ordinary wages. The Supreme Court also defined the concept of ordinary wages in decades of rulings as ‘wages paid regularly, uniformly, and fixedly in return for regular work.’ A representative example is the Supreme Court's en banc ruling in December 2013 (Gabul Autotech case). However, through this ruling, a new legal principle emerged: "If an employee provides the required work in full, the wage determined to be paid regularly and uniformly in return is equivalent to ordinary wages." Accordingly, regular bonuses that are ‘paid regularly and uniformly’ are expected to benefit the most. This is because even if conditions such as length of service are attached to the bonus, it is expected that all workers will meet them. Accordingly, from a company's perspective, there are three major things to consider. First, it is necessary to check the actual status of permanent wages. As the scope of inclusion in ordinary wages has been greatly expanded, work to simplify the wage structure must be done in parallel. In particular, it is necessary to clearly distinguish between ‘wages in the form of basic wages’ and ‘wages in the nature of performance bonuses’. Wages in the nature of performance bonuses include △family allowances based on the number of dependents, △performance bonuses based on performance, △management bonuses, and △statutory allowances. The standard for distinguishing them is whether or not 'predetermined work' is provided, and performance bonuses, etc. cannot be included in ordinary wages because the amount paid varies depending on performance. Therefore, there is a need to prospectively and comprehensively review the deficiencies in the employment contract. Second, the management of labor-management relations must be reexamined. The process of collective wage negotiation takes a long time. Sometimes conflicts arise. Accordingly, although it is somewhat theoretical, it is also possible to hold regular labor-management council meetings and conduct briefing sessions on issues related to normal wages. In addition, one of the solutions is to check and establish a communication window for new agenda items, such as labor-management council meeting records. This is because while corporate executives are deeply troubled to the point where they can't sleep at night over the issue of normal wages, there are many cases where workers simply take this lightly, thinking that their salary may go up. Lastly, there is a need to prepare for risk response. Theory and reality are different. Even if there is no problem when you try the calculator, complaints may arise in the field. From a company's perspective, minimizing these risks is of utmost importance. If there is a sharp conflict of interest, there is a high possibility that it will lead to a lawsuit. In fact, many companies, including Ssangyong Motors, Samsung Electronics partners, and Industrial Bank of Korea, have experienced legal disputes over ordinary wages. To prevent such a situation, it is necessary to actively utilize the in-house grievance handling system or to mediate step-by-step with the help of external experts such as labor lawyers.

According to the legal community on the 23rd, the Daegu District Court dismissed the appeal of Mr. A, in his 30s, who was indicted on fraud charges on the 11th of last month, and sentenced him to 4 years and 6 months in prison, the same as the original trial. Mr. A was accused of defrauding close to 1 billion won in money from nine people, including Mr. B, a member of the sports center he ran last year. He was indicted. As a result of the investigation, it was revealed that Mr. A received money from victims by asking them to add insufficient deposits to the center or by promising to guarantee profits through proxy investment in virtual currency. In the process, it was also confirmed that he opened a negative bank account in the member's name and made a loan. The prosecution believed that Mr. A committed this crime to raise money to invest in virtual assets. The first trial court said, "Using trust relationships, he swindled money from a large number of people and stole their names to make loans. “The scale of the damage was large and most of the victims did not recover properly,” he said, and sentenced him to prison. Accordingly, Mr. A filed an appeal on the grounds of unfair sentencing, but the second trial dismissed the appeal. The appeals court said, “Only a very small portion of the damage was repaid, and the victims are pleading for severe punishment,” and explained, “There are no different sentencing conditions from the original trial.” Attorney Min-kyung Kwon of Daeryun Law Firm, who represented Mr. B, said, “At the time, Mr. A had to sign a contract for a building. “They even promised to take out a loan using this as collateral and repay it, but it was all lies,” he said. “We were able to receive a reasonable ruling by emphasizing that Mr. A had no intention of repaying from the beginning and at the same time, the damage has not been recovered to this day.” Jeong Eui-jin (jej88@ikbc.co.kr)[View full article] A man in his 30s who borrowed hundreds of millions of won and squandered virtual currency was sentenced to prison on appeal (link) 2026-05-03T01:57:02.756Z https://www.daeryunlaw.com/en/broadcast/5238 A 40-year-old woman who was indicted on charges of hiding property to avoid compulsory execution due to default was acquitted after proving that there was no intention to conceal it. According to the legal community on the 22nd, the Seoul Central District Court acquitted a person in her 40s who was sent to trial on charges of evasion of compulsory execution on the 9th of last month. Person A was accused of hiding 25 million won for one year from 2020 for the purpose of avoiding compulsory execution due to debt. handed over to trial. Previously, the court had decided to pay Mr. A's loan to creditors and register him on the list of defaulters. The prosecution determined that Mr. A hid his assets by transferring them to his partner's bank account when he received salary, etc. into an account in his name. In addition, during this process, it was determined that Mr. A had applied for rehabilitation by taking advantage of the fact that his total assets had decreased. However, Mr. A denied the charges, saying that he had sent living expenses to his housemate, and that he had also received money from his housemate when he was short of money. He also claimed that he had no intention of hiding his assets because he submitted all of his salary ledgers and account transaction details to the court when going through rehabilitation procedures. The court ruled that the amount Mr. A sent to his housemate could not be considered excessive for the living expenses of two adults, and that it was an economic community that exchanged money with his housemate depending on their economic situation. Even when going through rehabilitation procedures, it was judged that the decision was made by submitting detailed usage details of the transfer amount to the court. Attorney Kim Won-sang of Daeryun Law Firm, who represented Mr. A, said, “If Mr. A had intended to harm his creditors, he would not have received his salary in cash and created account transfer details, but it appears that the court found him not guilty based on the fact that he did not do so and submitted the account transfer details as is to the rehabilitation court.” Reporter Jeong Cheol-wook[View full article] A man in his 40s who gave living expenses to a housemate was indicted for ‘evading compulsory execution’… Court found not guilty with no intent to conceal (link) 2026-05-12T17:21:12.356Z https://www.daeryunlaw.com/en/broadcast/5237 Joint lawsuit seeking compensation for “practical inconvenience due to exposure to hacking and SIM replacement”… Regarding the hacking of SK Telecom's (SKT) SIM card information, more than 1,000 users announced a joint lawsuit against the company for collective damages. Kim Kook-il, CEO of Daeryun Law Firm, held a press conference at the corporate office in Yeongdeungpo-gu on the 22nd and announced that he plans to file a lawsuit on behalf of 1,000 SKT users early next week demanding compensation of 1 million won per person. CEO Kim said. “Personal information protection is a matter of public trust and a basic responsibility of a company, but SKT has not fully disclosed the scale or circumstances of the damage to this day,” he claimed. “This incident is the largest SIM information leak in history,” he said, adding, “There are circumstances in which they were exposed to hacking for a long period of time, and the victims suffered practical inconveniences such as putting aside their jobs and visiting dealers to replace their SIM cards.” There are more than 10,000 applicants for the lawsuit, but only those who have completed the collection of documents will receive first priority. The law firm explained that it plans to file a complaint and continue recruiting for the second round. In cases like this case that cause multiple damages, multiple parties often file lawsuits for damages in the form of joint lawsuits. Multiple parties participate. However, to aid the general public's understanding, collective lawsuits are usually carried out under the name of 'class lawsuit'. This is based on the Civil Procedure Act. Under the civil litigation law, a joint lawsuit is stipulated as a way for multiple victims to file a lawsuit together. The lawsuit for damages announced by CEO Kim is separate from the criminal complaint. On the 1st, Daeryun accused SKT CEO Yoo Young-sang and security manager of breach of trust and obstruction of official duties, saying that SKT had neglected the management of information related to users' SIM cards.

In March, the Daejeon District Prosecutors' Office decided not to indict Mr. A, in his 40s, on charges of breach of trust and fraud. Mr. A worked as a local branch manager for a sales company for about 1 year and 6 months starting in October 2023, and was charged with causing about 83 million won in damage by passing on data necessary for the company's business to a third party. Mr. A denied the charges. He claimed that he had joined the company after receiving a recommendation from Mr. B, the head of the regional center, and that the company was only in charge of salary management and had no knowledge of the existence of the leaked data. The prosecution decided not to indict. This is because Mr. A did not sign a business contract with the head office. As the basis for this, the prosecution mentioned the 'commissioning contract' signed between center director B and the head office. The contract contained the clause that 'all workers at the center belong to Mr. B, and Mr. B will assume responsibility in the event of a legal dispute.' The prosecution explained, "Since Mr. B had all rights to the company's data, it is difficult to view Mr. A as 'a person handling other people's affairs.'" Attorney Choi Hyeon-deok of Daeryun Law Firm, who represented Mr. A, said, "For a breach of trust to be established, a 'person handling another person's affairs' must cause property damage to the other party by acting in violation of his/her duties." He explained, “It must be acknowledged that Mr. A was directly managed and supervised by the company, and the actual person handling the matter was Mr. B, so it does not meet the requirements for breach of trust.” Reporter Hwang Jeong-won (jwhwang@mt.co.kr)[View full article] The branch manager accused of leaking company information was not indicted... The reason (shortcut) 2026-05-13T12:38:00.275Z https://www.daeryunlaw.com/en/broadcast/5230 Daeryun's lawyer said, "You have betrayed social responsibility and public trust... We will hold you accountable to the end." In relation to the controversy over SK Telecom (SKT)'s delayed response to the hacking incident, the police summoned the accuser on the 21st. Seoul Namdaemun Police Station summoned attorneys Son Kye-jun and Cheon Jeong-min from Daeryun Law Firm, who had accused SKT CEO Yoo Yeong-sang and SKT security chief of breach of trust and obstruction of official duties, on the afternoon of the same day to find out the details of the complaint. Lawyer Son held a press conference at the main gate of the police station prior to the investigation and said, "The SKT hacking leak incident is the worst security incident in telecommunication history," and added, "I hope that the facts will be clearly revealed through a thorough investigation into the fact that it has betrayed its social responsibility and public trust as a key telecommunication company." He argued, “2,220 won per person is low, and if you multiply it by the number of subscribers, which is about 24 million, SKT has made unfair profits of 54 billion won through breach of trust.” Attorney Son emphasized, “I have no intention of withdrawing the complaint, and I will hold him accountable to the end.” When asked by reporters whether he thought SK Chairman Choi Tae-won was responsible for this incident, Attorney Cheon said, “(SKT) Corporation. “The CEO who can be confirmed in the register is not Chairman Chey Tae-won, so it was difficult to hold him criminally responsible,” he said, and explained that no plans have been decided for future complaints. Previously, Daeryun said, “SKT was aware of the need to process affairs related to the storage and use of users’ SIM-related information, but neglected management,” and submitted a complaint to the Namdaemun Police Station on the 1st. Regarding suspicions about the timing of SKT’s hacking recognition and reporting time, it also said, “An appropriate initial response from government agencies was required.” It was a serious violation of the law that interfered with the law.” On the 23rd, the Namdaemun Police Station will also conduct an investigation into the complaint filed by the Common People’s Livelihood Countermeasures Committee against Representative Yoo and Chairman Choi. The Common People's Committee claimed that Chairman Choi and others violated the Personal Information Protection Act and the Information and Communications Network Act by delaying reporting even after knowing about the hacking. Separately, the Cyber ​​Investigation Unit of the Seoul Metropolitan Police Agency is conducting an investigation to trace the background to this hacking incident.

According to the legal community on the 21st, Daeryun Law Firm recently conducted a survey of 3,800 clients who entrusted cases to Daeryun. As a result, 98% of respondents responded that they were ‘satisfied.’ According to Daeryun, when the results became known, customers who used Daeryun in related communities and cafes left reviews saying, “I was not frustrated at all because they provided detailed guidance throughout the process and immediately explained any questions I had.” In fact, Daeryun has its own customer management team and is implementing ‘communication-centered close service.’ In addition, we are creating and operating functional organizations such as the Customer Satisfaction Center, Litigation Management Headquarters, and Special Action Headquarters, as well as an AI-based case analysis system. A Daeryun official explained, "Most legal service users are not familiar with complex legal procedures and feel anxious during the case handling process," and added, "Only a law firm with a smooth communication system throughout the entire case handling process like Daeryun will have a great advantage in building trust with users." Daeryun CEO Kim Kuk-il said, "The essence of legal services is ultimately the essence of legal services. “What moves people is trust. Therefore, high-quality legal services begin with alleviating customer anxiety and gaining trust,” he said. “Daeryun will continue to improve the quality of legal services and strengthen customer-centered services so that customers can handle their cases with peace of mind from start to finish.” Meanwhile, the number of lawyers has increased significantly since the introduction of the law school system. According to the Korean Bar Association, the number of registered lawyers, which was around 10,000 in 2009 before the introduction of law schools, nearly tripled to about 36,000 last year. Some are pointing out that as excessive competition for commissions continues due to the increase in the number of lawyers, "the majority of law firms are only interested in the appointment stage and are often negligent in responding thereafter."

Regarding the leak of SIM card information from SK Telecom (SKT), law firm Daeryun Law Firm filed a complaint and accusation against those responsible early this month, and submitted an additional supplementary statement of reasons, urging the police to conduct a speedy investigation. The law firm Daeryun announced on the 20th that he submitted a complaint and a supplementary reason for complaint to Namdaemun Police Station in Seoul, which is currently in charge of the investigation related to the SKT incident. Previously, on the 1st, Daeryun filed a complaint against SK Telecom's CEO Yoo Young-sang and security manager on charges of breach of trust and obstruction of official duties. This is because, although they were aware of the importance of storage and use of SIM-related information, they neglected management, and even after first recognizing abnormal signs in the in-house system, they belatedly 'reduced and falsely reported' it to the Korea Internet & Security Agency. In this additional supplementary statement, Daeryun pointed out that although SKT had the largest number of subscribers, it has spent a smaller amount of information protection investment than KT since 2019. In particular, KT It was pointed out that unlike LG U+, which increased its information security investment by about 19.6 billion won in 2024 compared to 2022 and invested an additional 33.9 billion won, SK Broadband Co., Ltd. went against the trend of the times by only increasing its budget by about 3.3 billion won. In addition, as of December last year, SKT's information security investment per subscriber was 3,531 won, compared to the other two. It was explained that it did not even reach the average of 5,751 won for telecommunication companies (KT, LG U+). At the same time, Daeryun emphasized that SKT Corporation was guilty of breach of trust by not complying with its obligation to manage and utilize customers' SIM information and earning profits worth a total of at least KRW 54.5 billion (= KRW 2,200 He also pointed out the fact that it was not encrypted. Lawyer Dae-ryun Son Gye-jun said, “The Korea Internet & Security Agency was able to confirm that official work was scheduled to request on-site investigation and to request preservation of data and submission of documents to confirm the accident.” He said, “The obstruction of the execution of official duties by hierarchies is clearly proven.” Seoul Namdaemun Police Station plans to conduct an investigation into the accuser at 3 p.m. on the 21st, and Daeryun attorneys Son Gye-jun and Cheon Jeong-min will participate. Daeryun CEO Kim Kook-il said, “Daeryun is currently preparing a class action lawsuit by gathering victims related to the SKT incident, and thousands of inquiries have already been received.” He added, “Victims will receive practical relief through civil and criminal responses, and those responsible for this incident will be identified. “We will do our best until the end to ensure that he receives appropriate punishment.” Reporter Park Jae-gwan (paksunbi@fnnews.com)[View full article] Financial News - Dae-Ryun “SKT’s business malpractice amount is at least KRW 54.5 billion… Going against the grain of the times” (Shortcut) Aju Economic Daily - [Law Firm Lounge] Dae-Ryun "SKT's malpractice amount is at least KRW 54.5 billion... going against the grain of the times" ​​​​​​​ (Shortcut) Digital Times - Police begin investigation into accusation of executives and security managers in ‘SKT hacking incident’ (Go here) Korea Economic Daily - SKT subscribers only receive '3,000 won' per person...

It is a custody dispute over who will raise the child. Parenting is a serious issue that can affect a child's life, so it is carefully decided based on various data. There is something that many couples say when claiming custody. It means ‘you take better care of your child than the other person.’ However, this is a misunderstanding, and the court judges based on the ‘welfare of the child’ rather than the parents’ claims. Simply put, rather than considering who loves the child more, it is important to consider who has made a more substantial contribution to raising the child and whether they can provide a stable environment as well as an emotional environment in the future. Therefore, in order to claim custody, you need objective evidence that you put more effort into raising the child. For example, this includes parenting diaries or photos containing records of helping your child go to and from school or visiting the hospital with them. It is also important to emphasize that a stable job or high income level can provide a good economic and emotional environment for your children. In addition, if the child is enrolled in school, school records, comments from the homeroom teacher, and records of after-school activities may also be included as evidence. Conversely, if there are reasons for which it is difficult to claim custody from the other party, materials that can prove unfavorable circumstances may be submitted. For example, it explains that there may be problems in parenting due to frequent drinking, violence, or long absences. An issue that must be addressed along with child custody is child support. However, child support is also an area with many disputes, so negotiations often become difficult. Accordingly, the Seoul Family Court provides a 'child support calculation standard table' to minimize conflict, which is based on the parents' combined pre-tax income and the child's age. However, this is only a reference in case child support cannot be agreed upon, and the court makes a decision considering the specific circumstances of the couple. In addition, even if the divorce occurred without any agreement on child support, it is possible to claim 'past child support' for raising the child alone from the time of divorce, as well as 'future child support' required until the minor child becomes an adult. Lawyer So-young Kwak of Daeryun Law Firm in Cheonan said, "The important thing in custody and child support disputes is to make logical arguments centered on the rights of the child. Emotional actions such as a strong will to raise children or blaming the other party do not help resolve the dispute. However, due to the nature of divorce litigation, it is very emotionally draining, so there is a high possibility of not understanding complex standards and procedures or making incorrect judgments. Therefore, custody can be obtained with the help of a divorce lawyer. “We will need to come up with a legal plan and strategy,” he said.

According to the legal community on the 20th, the Gwangju District Court found Ms. A, a woman in her 20s, not guilty, who was put on trial on fraud charges on the 23rd of last month. Ms. A was accused of receiving about 180 million won from five voice phishing victims in 2023 and passing it to related gang members. The prosecution determined that Mr. A had conspired with a voice phishing organization and acted as a collection agent. However, Mr. A denied the charges, saying that a member of the voice phishing organization approached him impersonating a trust company official after seeing his resume posted on a job search site. He also argued that the trust company in question was easily searched on the Internet, so it was difficult to suspect that it was a crime. In addition, Mr. A also emphasized that he felt suspicious while carrying out cash delivery work and immediately went to the investigative agency and surrendered himself. "The transaction method, such as receiving a significant amount of money without any communication, is difficult to see as a normal form of transaction, so there is suspicion that the defendant acted as a collection device while knowing that it was a crime." However, "The amount the defendant received was about 2 million won, which cannot be considered an excessively large amount of money, and when a crime was suspected, he refused instructions from a voice phishing organization. If he had even vaguely known that he was participating in a fraud, he would not have turned himself in." Daeryun Law Firm, which represented Mr. A, stated the reason for sentencing. Attorney Kwak Min-seop said, "Mr. A gave his real name in the process of receiving money from the victims, and paid for transportation and food expenses using a card in his name. Since there was no intention to commit fraud, he did not do anything to obscure his identity, and the court appears to have acknowledged this and ruled him not guilty."

On the 2nd of last month, the Western Branch of the Busan District Court ruled in favor of the plaintiff in a lawsuit for non-existence of debt filed by a man in his 30s, Mr. A, against insurance company B. Mr. A, who worked as an air conditioner installation engineer, installed an air conditioner in an apartment in the area in 2020. installed. The problem arose two years later when a fire broke out in this apartment. At the time, Company B paid insurance money to the victim, but then suddenly claimed 40 million won in compensation from Mr. A. Based on the results of a police investigation that pointed to the air conditioner as the cause of the fire, Company B claimed that Mr. A did not take fire prevention measures when installing the air conditioner. On the other hand, Mr. A refuted that the cause of the fire was ‘tracking (a phenomenon in which sparks occur from moisture, dust, etc. in the area where electric current flows).’ At the same time, he emphasized that the old age of the product and the user's negligence in management led to the fire. The court ruled in Mr. A's favor. The court said, “When installing an air conditioner, the plaintiff needs to prevent tracking, such as preventing corrosion of terminals due to moisture and poor contact,” and added, “The air conditioner the plaintiff installed at the time was already well past its expiration date, and there was a lot of moisture inside the air conditioner connection box.” It also added, “Since tracking cannot be completely prevented with preventive measures when installing an air conditioner, it cannot be said that the accident occurred due to the plaintiff’s negligence.” Daeryun Law Firm, which represented Mr. A. Attorney Jeong Woo-young explained, “If the debtor claims to deny the cause of the debt in a lawsuit to confirm the existence of a financial debt, the creditor has the responsibility to prove the right relationship. Company B claimed that Mr. A did not fulfill his obligation to explain regular inspection and cleanliness to the user, but the court judged that it would be difficult to admit that this caused the fire.” Digital Content Team[View full article] Claiming compensation from the air conditioner installer who “did not prevent the fire”… Law “No fault” (Shortcut) 2026-05-13T13:30:42.292Z https://www.daeryunlaw.com/en/broadcast/5214 Daeryun Customs and International Trade Group of Law Firm announced on the 19th that it signed a business agreement with the Small and Medium Business International Customs and Trade Advisory Center Cooperative (hereinafter ICTC) at its Seoul headquarters branch office on the 13th.

The court ruled that contact with other companies during the contract was caused by the defendant's illegal actions...there is no problem with the plaintiff's claim. The court ruled that damages must be compensated for the social commerce company that 'abused the company'. It was cited as the reason for imposing unfavorable conditions on companies that signed logistics contracts or failing to properly pay outstanding payments. On the 11th, the Namyangju Branch of the Uijeongbu District Court ruled in favor of the plaintiff in a lawsuit filed by logistics company A against fashion social commerce company B, including the settlement amount. Previously, company A signed a logistics contract with company B in August of last year. After signing the contract, Company A carried out work as specified in the contract, but Company B continued to point out neglect of work as a problem. In addition, Company B was found to have engaged in abusive behavior, such as arbitrarily setting deadlines and verbally abusing Company A's employees when they could not meet them. In addition, circumstances were discovered in which Company B deceived Company A by preparing a new contract with another logistics company even though it was under a contract with Company A. In the end, it could no longer endure such abuse of power. Unable to do so, Company A notified Company B of the contract termination in September of the same year. However, Company A was unable to receive payment of the outstanding logistics fee from Company B. Accordingly, Company A filed a lawsuit, saying, "The contract was terminated due to Company B's negligence. Please pay approximately 16 million won, including the unsettled amount, etc.". Also, at the time, Company A spent costs such as recruiting new employees to fulfill the contract, and requested compensation for this additional money as well. It is claimed that damages occurred due to termination of the contract. The court also deemed Company A's claim to be justified. The court ruled that the plaintiff suffered due to the defendant's unreasonable demands, which led to the termination of the contract and caused financial loss. Attorney Kim Ho-jeong of Daeryun Law Firm, the legal representative, explained, "Company B committed illegal acts such as making unreasonable demands and interfering with the settlement process. In addition to abuse of power, Company B also had noise in the payment settlement process. This was because the settlement was made based on a file containing distorted information and many items were omitted." “This can be seen as liability for illegal acts under Article 389, Paragraph 3 and Article 210 of the Commercial Act,” he said. “Therefore, we have an obligation to compensate for not only the settlement amount but also related expenses, such as hiring new employees to handle the increased workload due to the contract.” Reporter Kim Jong-cheol (jckim99@sportsseoul.com)[View full article] Social commerce company that ‘abuses power’ is held liable for damages (Click here) 2026-04-25T07:57:42.061Z https://www.daeryunlaw.com/en/broadcast/5203 [Busan Eastern Support] Rejecting claim of 'lack of responsibility' A (9), an elementary school student, threw a rock at his friend B at the playground of an elementary school in Haeundae-gu, Busan, causing wounds measuring 1 cm vertically below his left eye, 2 cm on his left cheek, and 1 cm below his nose. Accordingly, B and his parents filed a lawsuit against A and his parents, demanding compensation for damages. The superintendent of Busan Metropolitan City Haeundae Office of Education issued a written apology to A to the victim student following the resolution of the Busan City Haeundae Office of Education School Violence Measures Review Committee that A's actions constituted school violence. Judge Kim Joo-young of the Eastern Branch of the Busan District Court ruled on April 9 that both A and his parents were responsible for damages and that "the defendants should join together and pay 22 million won to the plaintiffs" (2024 Gadan 103511). The defendants argued to the effect that “A was only 9 years old at the time of the incident and therefore has no capacity for responsibility.” However, Judge Kim did not accept it, saying, "Capacity for responsibility generally refers to the mental ability to take responsibility for one's actions. In this case, the student who witnessed the assault stated, 'A was crying after the assault, saying he felt like he was going to get into school violence,' so it is difficult to say that A did not have the ability to take responsibility." Judge Kim also spoke about A’s parents. “Even if a minor has the capacity for responsibility and takes responsibility for a tort on his own, if the damage is causally related to the violation of the duty of the person responsible for supervising the minor, the person responsible for supervision is liable for damages as a general tortfeasor (see Supreme Court Decision 93da60588, August 23, 1994, etc.)”, and “At the time of the price act, A was living with the defendants and receiving their protection and supervision, and the defendants “It will be said that they have a duty to educate and supervise A, a minor, by providing daily guidance and advice so that he does not commit harmful acts against others. However, the defendants neglected the above-mentioned duty of guidance and supervision, and it is judged that such negligence was a cause of the price act. Therefore, as general tortfeasors, the defendants are jointly responsible for compensating the damages suffered by the plaintiffs in accordance with Articles 750 and 760 of the Civil Act.” Daeryun Law Firm represented the plaintiffs, and Shinsung Law Firm represented the defendants.

In particular, it emphasizes the characteristics of digital medical technology that are difficult to include in the existing medical device law system., It has been pointed out that the establishment of an independent regulatory system was inevitable.. The Digital Medical Products Act, enacted against this background, has its own legal system that is distinct from existing laws.. Below, we will focus on the overall framework and legal system of the Digital Medical Products Act.. 1. Relationship between the existing legal system and the Digital Medical Products Act Digital Medical Products Act(Briefly below ‘Dongbeop’)is a medical device under the existing legal system., In vitro diagnostic medical devices, medicine, Products that were classified as industrial products, etc. are converted into digital medical devices., Digital convergence medicine, It is reclassified and defined as digital medical and health support devices.. for example, Before the enactment of this law AI Diagnostic software with applied technology is considered a medical device under the Medical Device Act., Digital convergence medicine is a pharmaceutical and/Or, it is regulated as a medical device under the Medical Device Act, but, Under the Digital Medical Products Act, all ‘digital medical products’, Among them, each ‘digital medical devices’ and ‘Digital convergence medicine’It is stipulated that. Below, in accordance with the Medical Device Act, ‘medical device’definitions and regulations of ‘Digital Medical Products Act’ By comparing definitions, Let’s take a closer look at the differences in concept between the two laws.. As can be seen from the comparison table above, the law ‘digital technology’(Intelligent information technology, robot technology, Advanced technologies prescribed by Prime Minister’s Ordinance, such as information and communication technology)The phrase is key.. in other words, This law stipulates medical devices using digital technology., Convergence medicine, medical treatmentㆍHealth support devices are defined as digital medical products.. The existing legal system, the Medical Device Act,, Looking at the relationship with the Pharmaceutical Affairs Act, The Digital Medical Products Act functions as a kind of special law., ‘digital technology’If the unique requirements of. the other side, to the product ‘digital technology’If this is not included, existing medical device laws, Pharmaceutical Affairs Act, In vitro diagnostic medical device method, Or, it would be easier to understand that laws related to industrial products apply.. Meanwhile, among digital medical products ‘digital medical devices’Regarding whether it applies to, You can easily make a decision by using the chart below attached to the guidelines published by the Ministry of Food and Drug Safety.. 2. As explained earlier, the regulatory system of this law is different from the existing law., The background to the enactment of this law is 'digital technology'This is because the existing legal system has limitations in effectively regulating this new technology due to its characteristics that distinguish it from existing medical devices.. for example, Because digital medical device software does not exist in physical form,, According to the existing medical device law ‘seal’ There is no need to apply relevant regulations. also, In the case of digital medical products, the performance of the finished product can be predicted relatively accurately when made by combining proven components.. This law reflects these characteristics, e case ‘seal’ Without applying relevant regulations, In the latter case, it is stipulated that the licensing process can be simplified if the finished product is designed only with verified elements that have undergone component performance evaluation..As such, this law was designed to have an independent regulatory system that is different from existing laws., An overview of the main differences from the existing regulatory system is as follows..

According to the legal community on the 16th, the Suwon High Prosecutors' Office dismissed the appeal of A's parents-in-law, B, to reconsider the non-indictment of A, a woman in her 40s who was accused of violating the Child Welfare Act (child abandonment/neglect) on March 14. Previously, B said that A had a relationship with her husband in 2019. After an argument, she left the house, cut off contact, did not return, and did not pay child support, and accused A of child abandonment and neglect. Ms. A denied the charges, saying that her parents-in-law blocked her from interacting with her children by changing the password to the front door, and that it was impossible to agree on child support because she left the house because she could not overcome her husband's domestic violence. The prosecution confirmed that Mr. A's claim that he was unable to agree on child support because he left home due to domestic violence was consistent with Mr. B's statement. At the same time, both parents are responsible for raising children, but in this case, the final responsibility for raising children was held by Ms. A's husband. Accordingly, it was determined that Mr. A's failure to pay child support alone cannot be considered as an intentional act of neglect. Mr. A's parents-in-law appealed against the prosecution's decision, but the prosecution also maintained the non-indictment of the Suwon High Prosecutors' Office, which reinvestigated the case. Attorney Park Se-hoon of the Daeryun Law Firm, who represented Mr. A, said, "For an act of neglect under the Child Welfare Act to be recognized, there must be an intention that Mr. A failed to take action despite knowing that child care was necessary." “It was accepted that it was not possible to smoothly contact the children due to the interference, so intentionality was not recognized,” he said.

In order to demonstrate that the capabilities of Korean law firms are effective on the world stage, we have chosen New York as our strategic first entry point,” Kukil Kim, the managing partner at Daeryun, told Asia Business Law Journal on why his firm chose the US city. Kim said existing Korean law firms tended to prioritize achieving short-term profitability and reducing operating costs, which led them to favor the Southeast Asian region when expanding overseas for the first time. None of the traditional Big Six firms in Korea – Kim & Chang, Lee & Ko, Bae Kim & Lee, Yulchon, Shin & Kim and Yoon & Yang – maintain offices in North America. “We will primarily focus on providing corporate clients with advisory services on international transactions and overseas expansion and entry,” said Kim. Conversely, the firm will also provide a range of solutions for US and other foreign companies entering the Korean market, including domestic market analysis, entry strategy development, permit procedures, and legal advice on labor and taxation. Kim added that instead of limiting itself to the existing Korean client base, the firm would target companies and individuals of all nationalities within the US as prospective clients. Accordingly, it plans to hire local attorneys directly. The New York office is scheduled to begin operations between June and August with a team of two to three attorneys holding US bar qualifications. When asked on the opening of additional overseas offices, Kim said: “Market research and partnership discussions concerning major cities in Europe and Asia are currently underway internally including those in the UK, Germany, Singapore and Japan, as well as the Southeast Asian market.” In 2024, Daeryun recorded revenue of KRW112.7 billion (USD81 million), ranking it among the top 10 law firms in Korea by revenue for the first time. [Korean] Daeryun Law Firm, established in 2018, chose New York as its first overseas office outside of Korea. Regarding the reason for choosing New York, Daeryun's managing attorney Kim Kook-il told the Asia Business Law Journal, "New York is the center of the international legal market where global mega law firms gather and compete fiercely. We chose New York as our first strategic location to prove that the capabilities of Korean law firms are effective in the global market." Representative attorney Kim said that in general, Korean law firms tend to prefer the Southeast Asian region by first considering securing short-term profitability and reducing operating costs when initially expanding overseas. Korea's six traditional law firms, Kim & Chang Law Firm, Gwangjang Law Firm, Pacific Law Firm, Yulchon Law Firm, Shin & Kim Law Firm, and Yoon & Yang Law Firm, all do not have offices in North America. Representative attorney Kim said, “First of all, we will make international transactions and overseas expansion/entry advice for corporate customers our core business.” Conversely, for the entry of American and other foreign companies into the Korean market, we plan to provide a variety of solutions, including domestic market analysis, entry strategy establishment, licensing procedures, and labor and tax-related legal advice. Representative attorney Kim also added that he will not limit himself to the existing Korean customer base but will target companies and individuals of all nationalities in the U.S. as potential customers. Accordingly, we plan to directly hire local lawyers. The New York office is scheduled to begin operations between June and August with a team of two to three attorneys licensed to practice as U.S. attorneys. In response to a question about opening additional overseas offices, CEO Kim said, “Currently, internally, market research and partnership discussions are in progress for major European and Asian cities such as the UK, Germany, Singapore, and Japan, as well as Southeast Asian markets.” Daeryun recorded sales of 112.7 billion won in 2024, entering the top 10 law firms in Korea by sales for the first time.[View full article] Korean firm Daeryun to open first overseas office in New York (Go here) 2026-05-10T06:26:06.526Z https://www.daeryunlaw.com/en/broadcast/5195 A man in his 40s who injured a cyclist and left the scene was not indicted by the prosecution on charges of colliding with a bicycle and running away. “We cannot rule out other possibilities other than overtaking.” The Seoul Western District Prosecutors' Office decided not to indict a man in his 40s, A, who was suspected of violating the Road Traffic Act in March. Mr. A was driving a vehicle on a two-lane road in January. He was suspected of hitting Mr. B's electric bicycle while riding on the shoulder of the road and running away. Mr. B fell on the road and suffered 3 weeks of dislocation injuries, including ruptured shoulder ligaments. Additionally, he spent about 2 million won on bicycle repairs. Mr. B claimed that even though Mr. A recognized that he had fallen through the vehicle's side mirror, he left the scene without taking any action. According to Article 5-3 of the Act on the Aggravated Punishment of Specific Crimes, if a driver causes injury by failing to provide relief to the victim during an accident, he or she may be sentenced to more than one year in prison or a fine of up to 30 million won. Mr. A denied the charge. It was confirmed that Mr. B had fallen, but since there was no direct contact between the vehicle and the bicycle, Mr. B claimed that he himself recognized it as a fall accident. The prosecution determined that Mr. A was not guilty. The prosecution explained, “There were no signs of collision between the vehicle and the bicycle, and the victim also stated that he hit the bicycle handlebar, so there was no possibility of contact or the degree of contact was minimal.” He added, “We cannot rule out the possibility that Mr. B fell for reasons other than Mr. A’s overtaking.” Kim Yu-jin, a lawyer at Daeryun Law Firm, who represented Mr. He added, “The charge was not recognized because the possibility of contact was so slim that no sound was even heard when Mr. A passed Mr. B.” Reporter Park Jae-gwan (paksunbi@fnnews.com)[View full article] ‘Thump’ while overtaking a bicycle… The prosecution’s decision on the driver who claimed “I could not detect it” (link) 2026-05-12T10:24:44.400Z https://www.daeryunlaw.com/en/broadcast/5188 A man who trespassed into his neighbor's house and attempted sexual assault was sentenced to prison. According to the legal community on the 14th, the 12th Criminal Division of the Daegu District Court sentenced Mr. A, a man in his 60s, who was indicted on charges of home invasion-like rape, to 7 years in prison and ordered him to complete an 80-hour sexual violence treatment program on the 4th of last month. Mr. A was accused of visiting the home of his neighbor, B, a woman in her 60s, last year, attempting to sexually assault her, and filming her body. In addition, Mr. B He was also accused of stealing the cell phone and confining him. At the time, Mr. B succeeded in escaping by jumping out of the window without Mr. A's knowledge, but he suffered a serious injury to his leg and was diagnosed with an 8-week hospital stay. As a result of the investigation, it was revealed that Mr. A committed this crime after going to Mr. B's house and making him open the door to settle the payment. Mr. A denied some of the charges. It is true that he attempted sexual assault, but he entered the house with Mr. B's permission. Also, Mr. B was vomiting. He claimed that he only stayed at home to take care of his condition due to his poor health, and that he had never confined him. The court sentenced Mr. A to 7 years in prison. The court said, "The defendant came into the living room with his shoes on, and even though the victim went into the master bedroom and locked the door, he broke it in." He added, "It cannot be considered a normal method of entry." He continued, "It is difficult to understand that he left the vomiting victim naked even though there was no intention to confine him, and there is no reason to prevent him from using his cell phone. He said, "The crime is serious because he committed the crime using a relationship of trust that he has known for a long time." Kim Jin-won, a lawyer at the Daeryun Law Firm who represented Mr. B in this case, said, "If you entered the house for the purpose of an illegal act, the crime of trespassing is established regardless of whether the resident gave permission."

This system has been considered as a mitigating factor in various criminal cases, including sex crimes. This is clearly revealed in statistical data. According to KBS's analysis of 988 rulings to mark the first anniversary of the implementation of special provisions for criminal deposit in 2023, among 519 sex crime rulings, 365 (70.3%) of the rulings considered the defendant's unilateral deposit as an advantageous factor in sentencing. On the other hand, there were only 13 cases (2.5%) of judgments in which the victim's situation, such as the victim's intention to be severely punished, was not reflected at all in the sentence. In fact, the majority of defendants turn to the criminal deposit system when they fail to reach an agreement with the victim. The deposit system is used as a trick to lower the level of punishment for perpetrators, regardless of the victim's intention to be severely punished. In particular, cases of abuse have continued to occur, such as so-called 'surprise deposit', in which money is deposited near the time of sentencing so that the court cannot confirm the victim's intention, and 'scam deposit', in which a defendant who has received a reduced sentence retrieves the deposit without the victim's knowledge. Accordingly, voices have grown within and outside the legal profession that the deposit system must be fundamentally improved. Due to these problems, the revised Criminal Procedure Act and Deposit Act have been implemented since this year. Following the revision of the law, it became impossible to commute sentences for tricks that exploit the criminal deposit system. In particular, in the case of 'surprise deposit', Article 294-5 of the Criminal Procedure Act (money deposit and hearing opinions of victims, etc.) was newly established to make it mandatory for the court to hear the victim's opinion. In addition, a new regulation was established to prevent the perpetrator from recovering the deposit without the victim's knowledge after receiving a reduced sentence. According to Article 9-2 (Restrictions on Recovery of Deposits) of the Deposit Act, if the victim refuses to receive the deposit or agrees to the recovery, recovery of the deposit is impossible, except in cases where a decision not to indict or acquittal is made. Sentencing standards are also changing in line with these changes. The Supreme Court Sentencing Committee held its 137th meeting last March and decided to revise sentencing standards for crimes such as sex crimes. In the case of sex crimes, while revising the detailed sentencing standards, the phrase 'including deposit' was deleted from the reasons for consideration in the overall sex crime sentencing standards. Sentencing standards are a type of guideline that judges refer to when setting sentences and do not necessarily have to be followed, but if a sentence is to deviate from the standards, a separate reason must be written in the sentence. This is meaningful in that it takes into account criticism that deposit is only a means of recovering damages, but the phrase 'including deposit' may lead to a misconception that deposit alone is a natural mitigating factor. So how should we respond to the changed deposit system? First, if you are a victim, we recommend that you write and submit a petition for strict punishment in order to prevent the offender from receiving an unfair sentence reduction. Additionally, in addition to criminal punishment, you can claim financial compensation for mental and physical damage through a civil lawsuit, so it would be a good idea to consult with an expert and exercise your rights as a victim. If you are a perpetrator, it has become difficult to expect a reduction in sentence by relying on the bond system. If the deposit is made without reflecting the victim's wishes, there is an increased possibility that it will have a negative impact on the outcome of the case. However, as agreement with the victim is the most important factor in sentencing, it can be said that it is important to obtain professional assistance and produce meaningful results rather than reacting haphazardly.

(Shortcut) 2026-05-09T14:03:43.705Z https://www.daeryunlaw.com/en/broadcast/5179 Daeryun Law Firm announced on the 14th that it was selected on the 30th of last month as an executing agency for the Export Support Base Utilization Project (Export Voucher) hosted by the Ministry of Trade, Industry and Energy and the Ministry of SMEs and Startups. The export voucher project is a government support program that provides customized services such as marketing, legal, and design to support small and medium-sized businesses expanding overseas. Companies can freely use the services of registered implementing agencies by receiving vouchers (subsidies) from the government. Depending on the selection of the implementing agency, Daeryun will provide companies with legal, tax, and accounting consulting as well as support in the fields of patents and intellectual property rights. The agreement period is from May 1 to June 30, 2027, and during this period, legal risk prevention and intellectual property protection strategies will be provided to exporting small and medium-sized businesses. Daeryun plans to contribute to the smooth development of global markets and improvement of global competitiveness for participating companies. Specifically, we plan to assist in △export contract review and dispute prevention advice △patent, certification, testing, and export IP strategy consulting △accounting audits and tax risk checks, including foreign exchange transactions. In particular, Daeryun is fully prepared to support companies exporting to the US by focusing on the newly established ‘Tariff Response Export Voucher’ service to reduce the legal risks of companies exporting to the US in accordance with the deepening trend of global protectionism, such as the recent imposition of mutual tariffs by the US and strengthening of export controls on high-tech industries, including semiconductors. Currently, Daeryun has opened or is in the process of opening overseas offices, including in the US, Japan, and the EU, and plans to provide a professional 'tariff response export voucher' service through collaboration between Daeryun's US lawyers and customs experts, US local customs brokers, and legal experts. To support this, Daeryun signed a business agreement on the 13th with the International Customs and Trade Advisory Center (ICTC), which consists of global tariff, customs clearance, and import regulation experts across the Americas, Asia, and Europe, and plans to provide full-fledged global comprehensive legal services. Daeryun CEO Kim Kuk-il said, "With the selection of this project, we will provide practical consulting to help domestic companies enter overseas markets more safely and strategically. We will contribute to strengthening the company's global competitiveness with a sense of responsibility as an executing agency." Meanwhile, Daeryun provides integrated solutions to customers through a collaborative system of various experts, including lawyers, accountants, patent attorneys, and customs experts.

According to the legal community on the 14th, the Western Police Station in Yongin, Gyeonggi Province, decided not to forward Mr. A, a man in his 50s, who was booked on charges of fraud on the 3rd of last month. Mr. A was accused of borrowing about 900 million won from two acquaintances for two years starting in 2015 for the purpose of running a business, and then disappearing without paying it all back. At the police, Mr. A denied the charges, saying he had no intention to defraud. He wrote an IOU and repaid the debt by paying principal and interest, but as his health deteriorated, he inevitably reached a situation where he could no longer repay the debt. Mr. A also claimed that he had no intention of deceiving his financial status because his acquaintances, with whom he had maintained close relationships for a long time, were fully aware of his financial situation. The police confirmed that Mr. A had paid interest several times to his acquaintances who were creditors and that he had actually used the borrowed funds for business operating expenses, and determined that Mr. A was not guilty of fraud. Also, considering the relationship between Mr. A and his acquaintances, it was difficult to see that Mr. A deceived his acquaintances even though he did not have the ability or intention to repay. Attorney Kim Young-min of Daeryun Law Firm, who represented Mr. A, said, “If he had the intention and ability to repay at the time of borrowing, even if he failed to repay, it is only a civil default and does not constitute a crime of fraud. Thanks to Mr. A, he emphasized the fact that he was paying the principal and interest for the borrowed money and proved his intention to repay. “I thought there were no charges,” he explained.

According to the legal community on the 14th, Daeryun has rented an office in the One World Trade Center (1WTC) building located in Manhattan, New York, and is carrying out final work before opening, including renovating the interior, providing office furniture, and selecting and training permanent employees. We plan to open the office and begin operations as early as June, or at the latest, by August. The office size is 347 pyeong (approximately 1,147 m2). 1WTC is a new building built on the site where the World Trade Center collapsed in the September 11, 2001 terrorist attacks, and is the tallest skyscraper in the United States. Several global companies are located here, including financial services companies Ameriprise Financial and Carta, media group Condé Nast, large real estate company Dust Organization, and marketing company Stagwell. This is the first time for a Korean law firm to move into 1WTC. Excluding some mid-sized law firms such as The Kim Law Firm, no law firms have established offices in New York. While major domestic law firms have opened branch offices mainly in Asia and Europe, Daeryun chose the United States, the center of global trade, as its first overseas expansion destination. Daeryun Park said, “We want to jump into the advanced legal market and ultimately introduce an advanced legal system to Korea,” and explained, “We believe that only by having advanced services and a customer-oriented mind can we survive on the international stage and secure competitiveness in the legal market.” The branch office will be located in the United States. The number of people is undecided. First, we hired 2 to 3 people and planned to increase them according to the speed of business expansion. Daeryun's U.S. office has all companies and individuals living in the U.S. as potential customers, not just Korean companies operating in the U.S. or Koreans who have immigrated to the U.S. For this reason, there are plans to directly hire a local lawyer. Currently, Daeryun's U.S. attorney includes attorney Mia Kim (Washington, DC). Daeryun recently signed a strategic business agreement (MOU) with Korini, a comprehensive U.S. real estate platform, paving the way for its entry into the United States. Korini, headquartered in New York, is a company that provides comprehensive consulting ranging from real estate leasing and sales to corporate asset management and overseas expansion.

In the background, there are practical reasons such as housing subscription, real estate-related systems, and loan conditions. If you start a practical married life without registering your marriage, but do not register your marriage, it is legally considered a 'common-law marriage'. Common-law marriage refers to a state in which there is an intention to marry between the parties and the reality of the couple's joint life is objectively recognized, but the marriage has not been registered. We often receive questions about whether legal protection can be received even in a state of common-law marriage. To conclude, common-law marriages can also be protected by law. However, it is difficult to expect the same level of protection as legal marriage. For example, even if a common-law marriage is established, there is no change in the family relationship register, and since no legal kinship relationship is formed, the common-law marriage spouse is not recognized as having inheritance rights. A common-law marriage can be dissolved by the will of one party, but if the common-law marriage is unilaterally terminated without justifiable reasons, that party may be liable for damages to the other party. In this case, 'legitimate reasons' refer to cases where there is a significant violation of the obligations premised on marital life, such as cohabitation, support, cooperation, and chastity, and cheating is a representative example. In addition, the Supreme Court's established position is that in a common-law marriage, damages can be claimed from the other party who committed the misconduct, not the spouse. Even when the common-law marriage is dissolved, a claim for property division is possible, just like in a legal marriage. However, in order to exercise your right, you must first prove that you were in a common-law marriage relationship by meeting the subjective and objective requirements of a common-law marriage. In particular, the key to dividing property depends on how each person's contribution is evaluated, and the period of marriage is very important in calculating contribution. In the case of a wedding, it is easy to use that point as the standard, but in the case of a common-law marriage that only started cohabitation without a wedding, it is necessary to comprehensively assert and prove the timing of cohabitation, whether joint economic activities, and the perception of those around them. In short, common-law marriage relationships are also subject to protection by law, but unlike legal marriage, institutional and substantive restrictions clearly exist. To avoid falling into a blind spot of the law just because of a common-law marriage, it is advisable to check the legal stability appropriate for each individual's situation and reduce risks in advance.[View full article] [Contribution] Before marriage registration, how far is the right to a common-law marriage?

According to the police on the 13th, Incheon Western Police Station decided not to send Mr. A, who was accused of assaulting and causing blindness (violation of the Animal Protection Act, etc.) of a dog that the dog owner had left at the dog kindergarten last March. Mr. B, the dog owner, responded to Mr. A, saying, "I was bitten by another dog while walking," but based on the veterinary diagnosis of 'trauma caused by a blunt object', he raised the possibility of abuse and filed a complaint against Mr. A to the police. During the police investigation, Mr. A reportedly stated that Mr. B's dog was only injured in a collision with another dog inside the kindergarten and that there was no abuse, and that he gave the wrong answer because he was unable to determine the exact circumstances at the time of the accident. The police cleared Mr. A, saying, "Although the accident occurred while Mr. A was managing the animal, it is difficult to say that there was abuse based on the evidence obtained such as CCTV." Attorney Shin Yong-hoon of Daeryun Law Firm, who represented Mr. A, said, “For a violation of the Animal Protection Act to be applied, ‘intention’ must be proven at the time of inflicting physical pain or mistreating the puppy. Although Mr. A, the director of the dog kindergarten, was negligent in failing to manage the puppy, it was confirmed that he took ‘appropriate measures’ such as having the puppy receive treatment at a veterinary hospital immediately after the accident, so he was acquitted.” Intern reporter Jeong Ye-eun (ye9@kyeonggi.com)[View full article] Gyeonggi Ilbo - Dog goes blind after leaving it at kindergarten...

Consulting attorney, litigation management center, special department, and AI-based case analysis. Nationwide integrated response “A law firm trusted by consumers, now a global standard.” Recently, ‘network law firms’ are rapidly expanding in the law firm industry and are becoming a hot topic. A network law firm refers to a structure in which several branch offices (regional offices) are established under one corporation or brand, use a common trademark, and mutually utilize case handling and marketing resources. This concept originally originated from the integrated operating model established by global mega law firms such as Baker McKenzie, White & Case, and Milbank. However, in the process of introducing this structure to Korea, accounting and responsibility between branch offices were separated. There are quite a few cases where it is combined with the ‘separate production system’ method and the original purpose is lost. Law firms that are systematically separated but appear to be networks only on the outside are exposing structural limitations that undermine the consistency and expertise of cases and cause variation and confusion in service quality to customers. Contrary to this trend, Daeryun Law Firm announced on the 13th that it will advance its organizational strategy by introducing ‘Global Mega Law Firm’ as its new slogan. Daeryun's global mega law firm starts from a 'centralized one-firm structure' that manages 43 offices nationwide as one organic organization through an integrated system centered on the main office, rather than independent operation of each branch office. This is not just a simple domestic expansion strategy, but is part of a long-term roadmap to secure competitiveness on the international stage in the future. In fact, Daeryun has benchmarked Baker McKinsey's strategies and manuals to implement litigation quality that meets global standards in which 43 offices operate according to the same standards. This structure is clearly different from network law firms that are similar in appearance only in that it is a system that realizes nationwide integrated management and consistent quality control. Daeryun designed this integrated system so that customers can receive the same quality of legal services no matter which local office they visit. This trust in service consistency and expertise is the core background that led to consumers' choices and became the foundation for Daeryun to grow into one of the top 10 law firms in Korea in a short period of time. The organizational foundation supporting this is also clear. Daeryun handles the entire process, from case consultation to trial response, as a ‘one-team system.’ The initial consultation is conducted by a consulting lawyer with extensive practical experience, and upon request from the customer, direct consultation is also possible with a lawyer specializing in the field or a lawyer with more experience. It is a structure that improves the accuracy of strategy establishment from the beginning of the case. The ‘Litigation Management Headquarters’, launched last month, is an organization that comprehensively controls and manages the entire case progress process, and plays a role in improving the consistency and completeness of the defense strategy. By tracking and coordinating the flow of cases centrally, information disconnections or response deviations between defense teams are minimized. Medium-to-large cases or multi-disciplinary cases involving complex issues are handled by the ‘Special Action Headquarters (Special Department)’. The Special Department is an advanced organization where lawyers specializing in fields such as criminal, civil, and administrative teams form a team and enable rapid and strategic responses to difficult cases. In addition, Daeryun has introduced an AI big data-based case analysis system and is actively utilizing technology in overall case management, such as classifying similar case types, deriving key issues, and analyzing the possibility of judgment. This, combined with Daeryun's unique data assets that have accumulated numerous litigation experiences, boasts precise analysis capabilities that are comparable to those of large global law firms. CEO Kook-il Kim said, “The structure in which national branch offices provide different quality services is the biggest risk from the customer's perspective,” and added, “Daeryun has built a global mega law firm-type structure that can diagnose and allocate cases centered on the main office and perform quality control on a nationwide level.” He continued, “Korea. “The legal community still lacks understanding of the structure of global law firms, and some law firms call themselves a network with two or three branch offices and only online advertisements, and in fact operate in a separate system,” he explained. “Daeryun is the only organization that implements integrated responsibility and expertise, which is fundamentally different from that structure.” CEO Kim also said, “The legal market is evolving along with technology, and developed countries such as the United States and Germany are also reorganizing their systems in line with system changes.” “Daeryun is a new model with an organic system and customer feedback-based legal services that existing large law firms were unable to implement, and we will continue to create an environment where everyone can receive high-quality legal services fairly.” Reporter Park Jae-gwan (paksunbi@fnnews.com)[View full article] Daeryun, building a global mega law firm...

The Army Prosecutor's Office decided not to indict Mr. A, a man in his 30s who was accused of insulting in March. Mr. A was accused of sexually insulting his successor, Mr. B, in his unit's office in June of last year. He is known to have made sexual jokes while referring to Mr. B's private life on five occasions. Mr. A denied the charges. He emphasized that he only made this joke individually through a messenger and did not make a separate statement in public. The prosecution found that Mr. A was not guilty. The fact that other colleagues who lived together stated that they did not hear Mr. A's remarks became the main basis. The prosecution explained, "Mr. B's claim has not been proven beyond a reasonable doubt," and "Even if the nature of performance is acknowledged, considering the level and context of the above remarks, it is difficult to say that it constitutes an insulting remark to the extent of lowering the personal value." Attorney Seo In-ho of Daeryun Law Firm, who served as Mr. A's legal representative, said, "Recognition of the crime of insult is based on the relationship and relationship between the parties." “The principle is that judgment must be made in light of the circumstances, including the context of the statement,” he said. “We have made it clear that although the client’s statement may offend the other person, the purpose is not to inform the majority of this.” Digital Content Team[View full article] “With a woman while on vacation…” The reason why the boss who sexually insulted his successor was ‘not guilty’ (link) 2026-05-13T14:46:22.438Z https://www.daeryunlaw.com/en/broadcast/5166 (Tax and Finance News = Reporter Ko Seung-ju) Daeryun Law Firm announced on the 13th that it conducted a ‘mentoring program’ for about 10 teenagers from Pyeongtaek Middle School on the 7th.

Official Trial Claims Tribunal: “It is difficult to believe that the injury was intentional.” A man who was put on trial for intentionally spreading a sexually transmitted disease to his ex-lover was found not guilty. On March 27, the Daejeon District Court found Mr. A, in his 20s, not guilty on charges of causing injury. Mr. A was accused of transmitting the sexually transmitted disease by having sexual intercourse several times with his ex-lover, Mr. B, with whom he was dating at the time, while hiding the fact that he was infected with a sexually transmitted disease in 2021. The prosecution said The charges were deemed acceptable and a summary indictment was imposed with a fine of 3 million won. The court also issued a summary order, but Mr. A, who refused to comply, requested a formal trial. During the trial, Mr. A completely denied the charges. As a result of receiving consistent treatment after being diagnosed with a sexually transmitted disease in the past, both test results were negative, and he continued to take medication to prevent infection. He also claimed that he used contraceptives at the time and acted to prevent infection, such as refusing sex when suspicious symptoms appeared. The court found Mr. A not guilty. The court said, “It appears that the defendant had sexual intercourse with the victim before informing her that he had a history of sexually transmitted diseases.” However, “The defendant did not feel any special symptoms after receiving a negative test result, and it is difficult to say that there was an intention to injure the victim by taking medication to prepare for the possibility.” It also added, “The defendant explained his situation to the victim when symptoms appeared, and the two continued to have sex afterward, and in the process, did not use contraceptives with the victim’s consent.” The court emphasized, “The victim only learned of her infection after receiving a sexually transmitted disease test four months later. Even if she was infected by the defendant, we cannot rule out the possibility that the time of infection occurred after she was notified of her infection.” Kim Jin-ju, an attorney at Daeryun Law Firm who represented Mr. A, said, “Mr. B’s statement had loopholes, such as not matching the objective situation,” and added, “We refuted the other party’s claims based on objective data such as hospital medical certificates and conversation history, so there was no charge of injury.” “I was able to receive recognition,” he explained.

According to the legal community on the 12th, the Jeonju District Prosecutors' Office decided not to indict Mr. A, a man in his 50s who was sent on charges of business embezzlement on March 27. Mr. A stole about 300 million won from the accounts of three people, including company representative B, on 130 occasions over a period of about a year from 2023. They are accused of unauthorized withdrawal of 50 million won. Mr. B and others provided a business account and card to Mr. A for business convenience, and claimed that Mr. A used them for personal purposes. Mr. A denied the charge. He said that he had entered into a partnership agreement with Mr. B and others and promised to share the profits. At the same time, he emphasized that the business profits were distributed according to the agreement. The police determined that Mr. A was not guilty. The police said, "There is a recording of the agreement claimed by the suspect, so the claim is not supported. “It is credible,” he explained, adding, “It is difficult to infer embezzlement because in addition to what the suspect took as profits, there is also a record of transfers to the complainants.” Mr. B, who dissatisfied with this, raised an objection and the case was transferred to the prosecution, but the prosecution also decided not to indict due to insufficient evidence.

Choline preparations, which have long been prescribed as brain function improvement agents, are having a huge impact on the pharmaceutical industry as they have recently faced requests for clinical re-evaluation and reimbursement adequacy reviews from the Ministry of Health and Welfare and the National Health Insurance Service. Choline preparations have been mainly used to improve the symptoms of senile cognitive decline and mild dementia. The explanation followed that pharmacologically, it acts as a precursor for acetylcholine and helps in the synthesis of neurotransmitters. However, contrary to these theoretical expectations, there has been continued criticism that the large-scale studies that meet the Global Clinical Standards (GCP) to date lack significant results showing that choline preparations have a clear cognitive function improvement effect compared to placebo. In particular, looking at the results of major clinical studies and meta-analyses conducted at home and abroad since 2020, choline preparations have failed to demonstrate statistically significant differential effects in improving memory and suppressing the progression of dementia. This became a decisive basis for health authorities to request a reexamination of the clinical effectiveness of choline products. As a result, Health Insurance offered pharmaceutical companies to negotiate for reimbursement of drug costs billed as health insurance benefits, and some pharmaceutical companies signed reimbursement agreement agreements accordingly. However, most pharmaceutical companies filed administrative lawsuits en masse, claiming the unfairness of the reimbursement measures. They argued that ‘the redemption negotiations were coercive and retroactive application was unfair.’ However, courts have consistently rejected pharmaceutical companies' claims. The court ruled that 'the recovery agreement is a contract based on the pharmaceutical company's free will, and the recovery measures to protect public finances are justified.' Furthermore, it was ruled that recovery is possible through a post-adequacy review even without going through the formal procedure of deleting benefits. This is a meaningful ruling that increases the possibility that the government will side with the government in similar wage recovery disputes in the future. Medically, the position of choline products is also rapidly shaking. Pharmaceutical companies are pursuing new clinical studies to prove the efficacy of choline products in order to come up with self-help measures, but to date, they have not been able to produce results strong enough to convince academia or regulatory authorities. Ultimately, regardless of whether the refund amount is confirmed, there is a growing possibility that coverage of choline products will be deleted or significantly reduced depending on the results of future clinical re-evaluation. If the clinical re-evaluation results do not prove that the choline drug has sufficient efficacy in improving cognitive function, the health insurance coverage itself may be deleted, which will lead to the fatal result of not only the refund of the already claimed benefits but also the collapse of the sales base. Some pharmaceutical companies are already reflecting the expected refund in their financial statements as refund liabilities, which can lead to worsening financial structure, lowering of credit rating, and failure to attract investment. This incident has taught several important lessons to the entire pharmaceutical industry. First, drugs without scientific basis can never survive for long in the insurance benefit system. In the past, there was a time when it was possible to maintain salaries by relying on ‘usage practices’ and ‘medical staff preferences’. However, currently, if clear clinical evidence and cost-effectiveness are not proven, benefits are reduced or deleted without mercy. This requires pharmaceutical companies to prepare global-level clinical strategies from the early research and development stage. Second, the importance of legal risk management. As revealed in this lawsuit, the recovery agreement is not a simple negotiation but a legally binding contract. In the future, when entering into a refund negotiation with National Health Insurance, pharmaceutical companies will need to strengthen prior legal review of the refund conditions, scope of retroactive application, and objection procedures. It was clearly confirmed that if an unfavorable agreement is reached, it is virtually impossible to overturn it through post-facto litigation. Third, there is a need to improve the management structure. A structure that is overly dependent on sales of specific items can cause irreversible damage in a crisis. It shows that the choline drug withdrawal incident goes beyond a simple decline in sales and can shake the foundation of the entire company's existence. Now, pharmaceutical companies will have to make portfolio diversification, strengthening new drug development capabilities, and expanding global expansion as essential strategies to diversify risk. The choline drug repatriation incident is not just a controversy over a single drug. This is a kind of 'warning letter' calling for strengthening the scientific evidence base, legal risk management, and sustainable management for the overall pharmaceutical industry in Korea. The era in which we can no longer rely on past practices has arrived. The future of the Korean pharmaceutical industry will be determined by how the pharmaceutical industry learns from this incident.[View full article] [Contribution] Choline drug withdrawal crisis, legal and medical warning to pharmaceutical industry (link) 2026-05-13T12:41:22.165Z https://www.daeryunlaw.com/en/broadcast/5159 According to data released by Forest of Innovation, a startup analysis company, the domestic fortune-telling market is estimated to be worth about 1.4 trillion won. Also, recently, it is said that fortune telling using AI, such as ChatGPT, is gaining great popularity, especially among the younger generation. Quite a few people are very interested in fortune telling. The problem arises when one is too ‘serious’ about fortune-telling. This is because excessive sincerity usually leads to excessive spending. There are many different types, from cases where amulets cost as little as a few hundred thousand won to cases where hundreds of millions of won are spent on so-called exorcism values. Since the amount of money involved is large, conflicts often arise. Most customers complain about why things don't work out even though they invested a lot of money believing the fortune teller's advice. And these conflicts quite often lead to legal disputes. It recently led to the acquittal of a shaman client in his 40s. He was investigated by the police on charges of swindling about 200 million won from customers in the name of a ritual. The customer complained of injustice. He was told by the client, “If you don’t perform a ritual, your business won’t go well,” and was deceived into giving him money. However, the police did not admit the charges. The reason was that there was no evidence that the client had made a statement such as "You have to borrow money to receive the ritual," and that the customer had been informed in advance that refunds were not possible. In addition, it was judged that it would be difficult to apply fraud charges simply because the client had been living as a shaman for a considerable period of time and the effect of the exorcism had not appeared. There are other cases as well. Another shaman in his 50s appeared in court as a defendant. He was also accused of inducing payment from customers who visited his shrine, saying he would perform a ritual for them. The money given by customers amounted to tens of millions of won. The shaman did not back down from his position that “the guest voluntarily chose the exorcism.” What was the court’s decision? The shaman in question was sentenced to probation. It means that the crime has been admitted. The court explained, “Proposing a ritual by citing specific examples, such as saying that a family member will die if the ritual is not performed immediately, can be viewed as an ‘act of deception.’” He also added, "The shaman's yelling at the guest and making him raise his card limit even though there was no reason to rush the exorcism was beyond the acceptable limit as a religious act." In this way, the shaman's actions may be considered 'religious advice' depending on the situation, but they can also be considered 'property misappropriation'. And the key to determining this is 'whether the shaman's actions meet the requirements for fraud.' In the case of fraud, a deceptive act that deceives the other party, an act of disposition by which the victim transfers property as a result, actual damage to property, and an intention to obtain money illegally (intent to take someone else's money from the beginning) are required to be established. If the shaman's words are merely comforting or religious remarks, it is difficult to consider this as deception. However, if the intention was to extort money by inciting fear without a clear basis and repeatedly inducing large payments, there is a risk of being punished for fraud. Even if the victim voluntarily handed over the money, if the cause was deception, that is, deception, fraud can be established. The issue is how the shaman persuaded the victim and what state of mind the victim was in when he or she paid the money. To prevent such disputes, it is essential to record the content during the consultation or keep records such as text messages and account details. In addition, if there is an excessive demand for money, it is necessary to immediately seek legal assistance from an expert.

As a result of coverage by CBS Nocut News on this day, Seoul Namdaemun Police Station recently arrested CEO Yoo on charges of obstruction of official duties by breach of trust and hierarchy. It has been booked and is being investigated. On the 1st, Daeryun Law Firm received a request from a complainant regarding this SIM hacking incident and filed a complaint and complaint against CEO Yoo and the security manager, and the police began an investigation. Regarding CEO Yoo's alleged breach of trust, Daeryun said, "SKT is in a position to handle entrusted affairs such as protecting and managing users' SIM-related information, but has reduced information protection investment costs, etc." and "Although it is possible to predict that information leakage incidents may occur. He claimed, "We will bear the guilt of breach of trust by neglecting administrative duties such as storing and utilizing users' information and maximizing our own profits to obtain property profits." In addition, it was pointed out that CEO Yoo reported the hacking damage late after being aware of it to the authorities, and that he underreported the circumstances of the damage and was also suspected of obstruction of official duties by hierarchy. People Power Party lawmaker Choi Soo-jin, a member of the National Assembly Science, Technology, Information, Broadcasting and Communications Committee (Overseas Defense), said, According to SKT report data obtained from the Korea Internet & Security Agency (KISA), the SKT hacking incident was reported at 4:46 pm on the 20th of last month. However, controversy over late reporting arose as it was revealed that SKT first recognized that some data had been leaked externally at 6:09 p.m. on the 18th, two days before the filing, and internally confirmed that it had been hacked at 11:20 p.m. on the same day. Even though actual hacking was confirmed, suspicions were raised that the incident was underreported due to 'suspicious circumstances'. According to the Information and Communications Network Act, which was revised in August last year, information and communication service providers must report the details of the damage, cause, and response status to the Minister of Science and ICT or the Korea Internet & Security Agency (KISA) within 24 hours after recognizing a cyber infringement incident such as hacking. In relation to this, Daeryun said, "SKT's reporting of the time of false recognition amounted to obstruction of official duties by hierarchy and was a serious violation of the law that hindered the appropriate initial response of government agencies." He pointed out, "KISA has a public obligation to immediately take necessary measures in the event of a hacking incident in accordance with the Information and Communications Network Act, and SKT's hierarchical false report is a clear obstruction to this." The police plan to conduct an investigation into the complaint and accuser on the 15th. It is currently difficult to identify and book SKT security officers who were accused along with CEO Yoo, and it is understood that the plan is to find out during the investigation process.

On March 21, the Goyang Branch of the Uijeongbu District Prosecutors' Office decided not to indict Mr. A, a man in his 40s who was transferred on charges of causing a fire. Last year, Mr. A was accused of starting a fire in a pile of trash by smoking a cigarette inside the house and then throwing a butt out the window without extinguishing the flame. The fire caused property damage worth about 200 million won, including burning cars parked nearby and structures including the interior and exterior walls of the building. The police forwarded the case to the prosecution for reasons such as the fact that the cigarette that Mr. A was smoking was the same as the type of butt found at the fire scene. Mr. A denied the charges, saying, “I usually smoke inside the house, but I did not smoke near the window on the day of the incident.” He emphasized, “Because we know that there are usually piles of trash on the first floor, there is no reason to throw lit cigarette butts out the window due to the possibility of fire.” Considering that the suspect's residence is located above the scene of the ignition and cigarette smoke was confirmed on CCTV, the prosecution ruled that Mr. A may be the owner of the butt that caused the ignition, but decided that it was not possible to confirm exactly where the butt fell, so they decided not to indict him. In addition, there was a smoker in another room of the same building at the time of the fire, so there was no evidence to confirm that Mr. A was the owner of the butt. Choi Seong-ho, an attorney at Daeryun Law Firm, said, “In order for a crime to be recognized in a criminal case, evidence that is convincing beyond reasonable doubt is needed. There is no data showing that Mr. A threw away the cigarette butt, and he was able to avoid prosecution by raising the possibility that the butt that someone else smoked was blown away by the wind.” Reporter Jeong Cheol-wook[View full article] Songchi, a man in his 40s, suffered 200 million won in damages by throwing away cigarette butts...

According to the legal community on the 9th, the Seoul Southern District Prosecutors' Office decided not to indict Mr. A, in his 30s, who was charged with child abandonment and neglect under the Child Welfare Act in March. Mr. A is accused of handing over the child to another person without proper protection after giving birth in 2013. The birth record is However, the investigation began with a report from a local community center employee who was suspicious that the birth had not been registered for over 10 years. Mr. A admitted that he handed over the child. However, he lost contact with the child's biological father at the time and claimed that he made this choice because he was concerned that the adoption record would remain on his birth certificate if he went through formal adoption procedures. At the time, he posted a post on an adoption cafe and was contacted by an infertile couple living overseas, and after meeting with them several times, he handed over the child. The prosecution decided not to file an indictment. Although it is true that Mr. A handed over the child without formal procedures, it is difficult to recognize the intentionality of child abandonment and neglect. The prosecution explained, "Under the Child Welfare Act, neglect must be recognized as causing damage equivalent to abandonment and physical and emotional abuse, but Mr. He added. Attorney Park Seong-dong of Daeryun Law Firm, who represented Mr. A, said, "Mr. A thought about the child's future from various angles even in difficult situations, including meeting and talking with the couple who expressed their intention to adopt 5 to 6 times. We were able to achieve a good result by emphasizing that, regardless of moral validity, the establishment of a crime must be judged strictly."

On the 8th, the Suwon District Court acquitted Mr. A, a man in his 50s, who had been indicted for posting false information about a candidate running in the 2022 city council election on the Internet. Mr. A was sentenced on March 13. He was handed over to trial on charges of violating the Act on Promotion of Information and Communications Network Utilization and Information Protection (defamation). At the time, it was confirmed that Mr. A had posted on the Internet and personal SNS about the academic background and suspicion of abuse of power by Mr. B, who was a candidate for city council. The prosecution and the court determined that Mr. A was guilty of defamation and requested a summary order of 50 million won in fines, but Mr. A objected and requested a formal trial. At the trial, Mr. A claimed that he only posted a post requesting verification of the candidate's qualifications and that it was for the public interest, not for the purpose of malicious or aggressive defamation. Accordingly, the court ruled, "When looking at the defendant's post, he was requesting investigation and verification of the matter and there was no malicious attack." In addition, it acknowledged the public interest of Mr. A's actions, saying, "Whether or not the victim's academic background, who was an election candidate, was false is a subject of public interest," and the public interest of Mr. A's actions. Daeryun Law Firm, which represented Mr. A, said, "An act of publicly revealing facts for the purpose of slander is a crime of defamation, but if the facts concern the public interest, the purpose of slander is denied."

Victim: “The defendant shows no remorse. Please be severely punished.” The court said, “The defendant asks the victim to ‘act like a victim’… It is difficult to believe that he is truly remorseful.” A boss who molested a subordinate at a company dinner was sentenced to prison. On March 27, the Daejeon District Court sentenced Mr. A, a man in his 40s, to six months in prison on charges of forcible harassment. In addition, he was ordered to complete a 40-hour sexual violence treatment program. Mr. A was accused of forcibly hugging and sexually harassing his subordinate, Mr. B, at a company dinner last year. The court said, “The defendant not only molested the victim, but also regarded the victim as a sexual object and made obscene remarks about the victim to other team members,” and added, “It is difficult to say that he is truly remorseful by demanding that the victim act like a victim.” In addition, “The defendant made a surprise deposit the day before sentencing. He added, “We also took into account the fact that the victim refused to accept the receipt and is pleading for severe punishment.” Attorney Kim Jeong-beom of Daeryun Law Firm, who represented Mr. B in this case, said, “Mr. B had the courage to raise the issue of sexual harassment within the company, but was disadvantaged, including discrimination, and eventually suffered secondary damage by being unfairly dismissed.” Attorney Kim added, “During the trial, Mr. A did not even give a proper apology and said, ‘It is not a big deal, but the victim is making a fuss.’ “He showed a lack of remorse,” he explained. “It appears that the court also took this into consideration when sentencing him to prison.” Reporter Kim Jong-cheol (jckim99@sportsseoul.com)[View full article] The victim was fired after being sexually harassed at a company dinner...

Daeryun Law Firm's Special Division is responsible for carrying out (led by the division) medium-to-large cases that are difficult to respond to at the individual group level. The organization consists of Special Department 1 (Civil and Administrative) and Special Department 2 (Criminal). Daeryun Law Firm says, “The Special Department system presents a new direction in handling medium to large-sized cases. Together with the recently established Litigation Management Headquarters, it is a strategy to maximize the expertise and efficiency of case handling,” and “Rather than simply ‘increasing the number of people’ and randomly assigning lawyers, the head of the division organizes lawyers specializing in each field to manage medium to large-sized cases. “We can build a system,” he explained. Attorney Young-gon Cho (16th Judicial Research and Training Institute) serves as the head of the Special Department and the head of the Special Department 2, leading the entire group. Attorney Cho, who served as Chief of the Seoul Central District Prosecutors' Office and Chief of the Daegu District Prosecutors' Office, took on major cases such as the investigation of the Four Major Rivers Project and the recovery of fines from former Presidents Chun Doo-hwan and Roh Tae-woo when he was Chief Prosecutor, and was equipped with legal advice and investigative response to numerous companies, including unfair trade practices of leading domestic and foreign companies. The first special department head is Attorney Sang-won Yeo (Judicial Research and Training Institute), who served as Chief Judge of the Seoul Central District Court and the Seoul Eastern District Court. 17th class) is responsible. Attorney Yeo, who has been in public service as a judge for 23 years, will lead the civil affairs group based on her experience as a trial researcher at the Supreme Court and as a Korean commercial arbitrator. The standing attorneys are Ui-seok Lee (6th trial), a real estate lawyer and expropriation and compensation lawyer at the Korean Bar Association, and Myeong-cheol Kim (47th class of the Judicial Research and Training Institute), who represented an ‘Incheon investment tycoon’ in a 67 billion won fraud case, respectively, taking charge of civil administration and criminal cases. Support. The launch of Daeryun Law Firm’s Special Department is significant in that it carries out the entire litigation process, from ‘consultation-distribution-management’, with professional lawyers. If a case is classified as a medium or large-scale case, the Special Action Headquarters responds after consultation is conducted by a lawyer specializing in counseling within the Litigation Management Headquarters, which Daeryun launched last month. Recent cases that the Daeryun Special Department is responding to include △ A dispute over construction costs by an apartment complex reconstruction association, △ Virtual currency group fraud damage, and △ Large construction company B's unfair debt dispute. Regarding the Apartment A case, Director Cho explained the strategy, saying, “Constructors often avoid construction cost disputes by ‘taking time,’” and “Daeryun minimizes the burden on union members through the process of ‘contract review → request for evidence → analysis of negotiation structure → response to termination.’” Regarding the future direction of the special department, Attorney Cho chose ‘legal activism.’ Attorney Cho said, “The purpose of the special department is not just to represent litigation, but to diagnose the risk structure before a problem occurs.” He added, “The goal is not only to minimize the spread of damage, but ultimately to come up with a plan to improve the system.” Kim Kook-il, CEO of Daeryun Law Firm, said, “In the case of medium to large cases, multiple cases are often merged, so it is important that lawyers with specialized knowledge are brought in at the same time.” He added, “A legal expert with nearly 40 years of experience in the legal field. “Because the team is led by ‘veterans’, we are able to provide clear strategies and direction to our clients,” he said.

This is because the ‘right to request transmission of personal information’ system was implemented in earnest following the enforcement of the revised ‘Personal Information Protection Act’ in March. Legal experts advised that a technical and management system must be established as a major change has begun in the data flow between medical institutions and patients. On the 7th, Daeryun Law Firm introduced the systems that companies and institutions must have through a corporate and implications report on the revised personal information processing policy guidelines. The 'right to request transmission of personal information' is the right of the information subject to request that his or her personal information be transmitted to him or her or a third party, and the 'right to data portability' stipulated in the European Union's (EU) General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) is adapted to domestic circumstances. This system was introduced. This system is a key axis of the 'My Data' policy that ensures that individuals can independently integrate and utilize their information on various platforms, and is being applied sequentially in sensitive information fields such as medical care, communications, and finance. Among them, the medical field is one of the core application areas of this system, and it is believed that it could have a significant impact on the future medical treatment and health management system. With the implementation of this system, patients will be able to use the Korea Disease Control and Prevention Agency, National Health Insurance Service, Health Insurance Review and Assessment Service, and tertiary general hospitals. Vaccination records, health checkup results, medical treatment details, medication history, diagnosis information, etc., which were distributed across public and private institutions, can be received directly or transmitted to the desired institution or platform. This makes it possible to transfer medical records between hospitals as well as integrated health management through the personal health record (PHR) platform. The Personal Information Protection Committee is expanding the scope of My Data application to the medical field, communications, energy, etc., and plans to establish a more solid institutional foundation for medical information transmission by 2026. Transmission of personal information must be done through a specialized intermediary agency, and is only permitted through encryption and API methods. Scraping methods are prohibited, and medical data is stored and utilized through specialized 'specialized organizations'. However, information that can be transmitted is limited to information provided by the information subject or created through activities, and data (risk prediction, profiling results, etc.) analyzed and processed by the hospital itself is, in principle, not included in the transmission target. Exceptionally, diagnostic information can be transmitted under the Medical Service Act. Officials predict that the institutionalization of the right to request personal information transmission in medical settings will not only establish patient-centered health information sovereignty, but will also become the basis for precision medicine and customized health management services in the future. Daeryun Law Firm said, "A patient-centered medical data utilization system has begun," and added, "Medical institutions such as general hospitals must thoroughly ensure the security and reliability of the data transmission process, considering the nature of handling sensitive personal information." He continued, "PHR. He added, “Platforms and digital healthcare companies, as recipients of transmitted data, must also meet the My Data registration requirements and have a technical and management system that guarantees the rights of information subjects.” Meanwhile, as the My Data project is recently on track, the government is also preparing specific guidelines for the transmission of My Data personal information. On the 6th, the Personal Information Protection Committee published the 'Guide to the MyData Personal Information Transmission Request System in All Fields', a draft of which was released in March last year and collected opinions.[View full article] “Medical information is now carried by patients”...

On March 18, the Cheonan Branch of the Daejeon District Prosecutors' Office dismissed employee A, who was accused of violating the Unfair Competition Prevention and Trade Secret Protection Act (Unfair Competition Prevention Act), with 'no charges'. It was disposed of. Mr. A worked as a designer at a franchise beauty salon in July of last year, but when he moved to a competitor, he is accused of stealing trade secrets, including customer lists, and using them for business activities. The company filed a complaint, saying it had suffered enormous losses in business due to Mr. A. The purpose is that Mr. A contacted customers and induced them to refund their memberships. According to Article 18, Paragraph 2 of the Unfair Competition Prevention Act, if a company's trade secrets are leaked to the outside world, you can be punished by imprisonment for up to 10 years or a fine of up to 500 million won. Mr. A denied all charges. It is claimed that the customers contacted Mr. A voluntarily and that he never induced them to move the hair salon during this process. The prosecution decided that the charges were not admissible. The prosecution said, “It is acknowledged that Mr. A used information he learned while working after leaving the company, but it cannot be said that he used the trade secret for the purpose of causing damage to the company, considering that a customer he was previously in contact with contacted Mr. A first.” Attorney Kim Hyun-soo of Daeryun Law Firm, who represented Mr. A, said, “Trade secret infringement occurs when the trade secret is acquired and used for the purpose of making unfair profits through the trade secret or causing damage to the holder of the trade secret.” “It applies,” he explained, adding, “We were able to receive a non-indictment decision thanks to the fact that it was not confirmed that Mr. A persuaded or instructed customers to refund.” Digital Content Team[View full article] Hair shop designer accused of stealing customer information from former company...

Dongtan Police Station in Hwaseong, Gyeonggi Province, decided not to forward Mr. A, a doctor who was booked on charges of violating the Special Act on Prevention of Insurance Fraud last March. Mr. A is accused of issuing receipts with false medical expenses to patients for three years since 2019 and collecting 800 million won in actual insurance money based on these. The insurance company requested the police to investigate, saying that Mr. A issued receipts without performing surgery and caused patients to make false insurance claims. However, Mr. A denied the charges, saying, “Patients who were burdened with surgery costs had difficulty paying in full, so we first cut off the receipt so that they could pay only a portion of the surgery fee in advance and pay the remaining amount after receiving the insurance money.” The police determined that Mr. A was not guilty. A police official said, “The suspect received insurance money from patients as surgical expenses.” “The facts are acknowledged,” he said, but “except for the false receipt, the other documents, including the surgery confirmation, were written truthfully.” He also said, “There are no circumstances of forcing or inducing patients to undergo surgery, and there is no confirmation of conspiring to commit a crime.” He also ruled, “It cannot be considered that the insurance company was deceived.” Lawyer So-young Yoon of Daeryun Law Firm, who was in charge of Mr. “An insurance claim cannot be considered false just because payment has not been completed,” he explained.

Daeryun Law Firm (CEOs Kim Kuk-il and Ko Byeong-jun), which has 21 years of experience as a judge and has excellent track records, including winning civil lawsuits worth 20 billion won and acquitting high-ranking public officials in criminal cases, has strengthened its litigation capabilities by recruiting lawyer Shin Il-soo (19th class of the Judicial Research and Training Institute), who served as chief judge of the Seoul Central District Court. Attorney Shin passed the 29th bar exam in 1987 and took his first steps into the legal field by being appointed as a judge of the Eastern Branch of the Busan District Court in 1990. Afterwards, he served as a judge at the Seoul District Court and Seoul High Court, and then as chief judge at the Seoul Central District Court, Suwon District Court, and Jeju District Court. He worked as a judge for 21 years and was active in various cases in the civil, criminal, and domestic affairs fields, and served as a standing mediator of the Seoul High Court and Seoul Central District Court from 2021 to 2025. The standing mediator system is a system that mediates and handles civil disputes without going through trial procedures, and is selected from among those with more than 10 years of legal experience or more than 3 years of experience as a civil or domestic affairs mediator. In particular, Attorney Shin has achieved outstanding results, such as defending Suwon A Cooperative to victory in a civil lawsuit worth 20 billion won, and obtaining a final not guilty verdict in the case of Park Ji-won, a member of the Democratic Party of Korea (then floor leader of the Democratic United Party), violating the Aggravated Punishment Act for specific crimes (e.g., aggravated punishment) for high-ranking public officials. Based on his expertise in the civil and criminal fields, he was also active in legal interviews for numerous broadcasting and newspaper companies. Attorney Shin will reside at the Yongsan branch office in Seoul and directly handle civil and criminal cases handled across the country. Lawyer Shin said, "'Integrity is the best virtue in life. He who goes steadily will eventually outpace those who go fast,' and he served as a judge for a long time and took charge of cases in various fields under the motto," and added, "The same is true after becoming a lawyer. My experience as a judge is a great help in carrying out litigation work. At Daeryun, we will carefully handle our clients' cases through the weapon of 'steady sincerity.'" CEO Kim Kook-il said, “Lawyers who were former chief judges are also handling cases directly, so I think Attorney Shin’s long experience will be of great help in strengthening Daeryun’s litigation capabilities,” and added, “We are improving the internal system, such as establishing a litigation management headquarters, and I am looking forward to Attorney Shin’s role as well.” Reporter Jeong Young-cheol (jyc6131@sejungilbo.com)[View full article] Sejeong Ilbo - Daeryun Law Firm recruits lawyer Shin Il-soo, former chief judge...

Despite successive measures, schools appear to be getting more bruised by violence. In particular, starting this year, records of school violence are mandatory in college entrance exams, and the 'reporting war' surrounding whether or not it is school violence has become heated. Reporter Byeong-soo Ahn covered the story. 【 Reporter 】 Last year, at an elementary school and a middle school respectively. This is the record of the open school violence committee. It is a case of sexual harassment and social violence committed against a classmate, and both cases resulted in a police report. ▶ Standing: Byeong-soo Ahn / Reporter - "These are lawsuit materials related to the school violence committee involving an elementary school student. Even though it is a single case, the considerable amount of documents is as much as a complex criminal lawsuit." Starting next year's college entrance exam, the 'fact of school violence' will be reflected as a factor in deducting points, and the fight within the school to somehow avoid recognition of school violence has intensified. This is an analysis.▶ Interview: Lawyer specializing in school violence - "With the issue of college admissions at stake, there are more and more cases of reporting school violence in response." The number of cases reviewed by the school violence committee last year was 23,000, and there is a possibility that it will increase rapidly in the future. In fact, there is a widespread perception in schools that I have to report first to win. ▶ Interview: Parents of students involved in school violence - "That's what everyone says, even teachers in the student affairs department. If you report it first, That person has the upper hand. (The school also knows) that there are dozens of appeals a year... "Education authorities have taken action to address the overheated atmosphere by announcing the 5th basic plan to prevent school violence. In the case of first and second grade elementary school students, they decided to support restoration of relationships. There is also an opinion that this mediation attempt will be effective in reducing indiscriminate reports of school violence. ▶ Interview (☎): Naeun-jeong / Lawyer - "There is a need for clear protection measures for student victims. In some cases, it is necessary to build a system that focuses on restoring relationships between students rather than punishment..." The Ministry of Education announced that it will create an environment in which conflicts between students can be resolved educationally. This is Ahn Byeong-soo of MBN News.

According to the legal community on the 2nd, Mr. A acquired the restaurant from Mr. B and his wife, whom he had known in 2020. At the time, they received 55 million won in exchange for handing over all air conditioners, refrigerators, remaining food ingredients, and alcohol to Mr. A. However, two years later, when Mr. B and his wife opened a restaurant in the same industry near Mr. A's restaurant, Mr. A and Mr. B began to have a conflict, and eventually Mr. A filed a lawsuit, claiming that the couple did not keep the non-competition agreement signed at the time of transfer. In response, Mr. B and his wife signed a contract for a key money in exchange for the facilities. Therefore, it was argued that it does not constitute a ‘transfer of business under the Commercial Act’. He also refuted Mr. A's claim that the non-competition agreement was not kept, saying, "We never concluded it." On March 28, the 1st Civil Division of the Namyangju Branch of the Uijeongbu District Court, which heard the case, ruled in favor of some of the plaintiffs in the business ban lawsuit between restaurant owners A and B. In addition to an order to close the store, the defendant was ordered to prohibit business in the nearby area for 10 years after the transfer and to pay 5 million won in damages. In the ruling, the court said, "It is difficult to say that a non-competition agreement was concluded because there was no agreement on non-competition between the plaintiff and the defendant during the contract process," but added, "It is acknowledged that the defendants transferred the store property to the plaintiff after the contract and allowed him to continue business activities, which is equivalent to a transfer of business under the Commercial Act." The court agreed. In addition, the court ruled, “The defendants’ opening of the store two years later constitutes an act of violation of the duty to prohibit competition stipulated in Article 41, Paragraph 1 of the Commercial Act,” and “The defendants have an obligation not to engage in similar business activities near the plaintiff’s restaurant.” In relation to this, lawyer Jeong Yun-chae of Daeryun Law Firm, who represented Mr. A, explained, "In the process of handing over the store, Mr. B and his wife said, 'We will no longer run the store,' and even showed Mr. A a detailed list of customers, emphasizing that it was a business that could be operated stably." He added, "Continuous damage occurred due to violation of the duty not to compete, and mental damage could be recognized."

In the case of crimes committed against those of a relatively lower rank, there were no provisions for particularly aggravated punishment. The crime of abuse of power and cruelty, which punishes cases where officers abuse their power and commits harsh acts, has been in place since the enactment of the Military Criminal Act, but the provisions of the crime of cruelty through use of force, which also punishes harsh acts between soldiers, were only passed by the National Assembly in 2009, about 50 years after the enactment of the Military Criminal Act in 1962. Article 62 (2) of the Military Criminal Act stipulates that ‘habitually using force by using force’ It is stipulated that “any person who abuses or mistreats a soldier through assault, threats, or similar methods shall be punished by imprisonment for not more than five years.” Here, the interpretation of power is difficult to equate with the power of general criminal law applied among civilians. Power in criminal law is interpreted as ‘social and mental coercion to the extent of restricting the other person’s free will or actions.’ For example, when a boss uses his position to exert implicit pressure on a subordinate, force can be recognized if the victim is unable to refuse. On the other hand, the Military Criminal Act does not specify separate provisions on what constitutes force. Since the military is a special, controlled environment that requires strict hierarchy, there is room for power to be seen as always present. For example, in the military, even if a senior person says to a junior, “I don’t have a good attitude these days,” the junior can become anxious. This is because even ordinary words are accepted as orders that cannot be refused within the military. This also applies to the non-verbal expressions of superiors, such as facial expressions, gestures, eye contact, and voice tone and intonation. There is an incident that I actually experienced. The client was sent to the prosecution solely for the fact that he ‘suggested’ mental education, such as duck walking and an invisible chair, to his successor, who had moved in less than two months ago. As the atmosphere in the unit at the time was not heavy and the relationship with his successor was amicable, the client complained of being unfairly investigated by the police. My fellow lawyers, including the author, reviewed the correlation between the claims made by the client and the accuser as to whether or not they were powerful. In addition, based on the statements of his predecessors in the unit, he was able to assist in the case and end it with a non-indictment. Kim Young-soo, a military lawyer at Daeryun Law Firm, said, "Like this, power under military criminal law can be interpreted abstractly during the investigation or trial process, so it has the limitation of ambiguous judgment standards. To solve this problem, it is necessary to organize the concept of power under military criminal law more systematically. For example, just as there is a difference depending on whether the saying "Would you like to take a lap around the playground?" is done by seniority or motivation, it is necessary to focus on the content. In addition, the existing relationship between the parties and the reaction of the victim at the time. “etc. must be comprehensively considered, and if there is a need to interpret it differently from the concept of power in general criminal law, the work of codifying this in the military criminal law should be carried out in parallel to prevent unnecessary misunderstandings and unfair punishments.”[View full article] What is the ‘criteria for judging’ military lawyers regarding abuse of force? (Go to here) 2026-05-12T11:29:26.979Z https://www.daeryunlaw.com/en/broadcast/5093 Approximately 900 people applied to participate in the class action lawsuit “We will hold legal responsibility until the end and lead to a just resolution” In relation to SK Telecom’s large-scale SIM information leak, Daeryun Law Firm, a large domestic law firm, filed a complaint and complaint against SK Telecom. Previously, Daeryun announced its official response policy through a statement on the 30th, saying that this incident was a serious matter that went beyond a simple information leak and undermined the public's trust in information protection. Around 2 p.m. on the 1st, attorneys Son Gye-jun, Shin Jong-soo, and Ji Min-hee from Daeryun Corporate Legal Group arrested SK Telecom's Yoo Young-sang on charges of Article 356 (breach of trust in office) and Article 137 (obstruction of official duties) of the Criminal Act at the Namdaemun Police Station in Seoul. Lawyer Gye-Jun Son said, “The members of our corporation are also victims of the same situation,” and “We deeply sympathize with the confusion and anger of the victims, and judged that this is a moment when a responsible response is necessary.” Regarding the charge of breach of trust, “The defendants (SK Telecom) and others are experts in the mobile communications industry, and although they recognized the need for office work such as the storage and use of users’ SIM-related information, they neglected management,” and added, “Among the three mobile communications companies, “Despite the only increase in operating profit last year, we pursued maximum corporate profits by reducing information security investment costs,” he said. He explained that what was particularly problematic was the circumstances of the manipulation at the time of reporting. SK Telecom first recognized abnormal signs in the company's internal system around 6:00 PM on April 18, and although it discovered malicious code around 11:00 PM on the same day, it delayed the recognition of hacking to 3:30 PM on April 20 and reported it to the Korea Internet & Security Agency (KISA). Regarding this, “SK Telecom's reporting of a false recognition time constitutes obstruction of official duties by hierarchy, and requires an appropriate initial response from government agencies.” “KISA has a public obligation to immediately take necessary measures in the event of a hacking incident in accordance with the Information and Communications Network Act, and SK Telecom’s hierarchical false reporting is a clear act of obstruction of this,” he said. Meanwhile, SK Telecom has not yet provided a specific explanation on the scale of damage from the leak or follow-up response. In response to this, Daeryun said, “The asymmetry of information is further increasing the damage,” and added, “We urge thorough investigation and accountability by investigative agencies, and hope that the substantive truth is transparently disclosed.” Lastly, Daeryun said, “The accusers and accusers are suffering great damage due to leakage of SIM card information due to professional breach of trust, while the defendants and accusers are not clearly disclosing the scale of the victims of the leak and the follow-up procedures.” He added, “I hope that this civil and criminal response will provide real relief to the victims. “We will do our best to hold legal responsibility until the end and bring about a just solution,” he emphasized. Currently, the number of applicants to participate in the class action lawsuit through the Daeryun website exceeds 900 as of 2 p.m. on May 1, and they also plan to file a claim for collective damages.

SK Telecom discovered on the 19th that some of SKT subscribers' SIM information was leaked due to a hacker's malware attack. SK Telecom announced that it would replace the SIM cards of all 23 million subscribers free of charge, but only low-cost phone subscribers. Given that there are a total of 25 million people subject to replacement, including 1.87 million people, confusion due to lack of inventory is expected. In particular, the impact is expected to grow further as it has been confirmed that SK Telecom reported damage beyond the legal deadline despite being aware of the SIM hacking situation during the response process, and then refused any technical support, such as damage support services and support for follow-up measures from government agencies at the time of reporting. Accordingly, Daeryun, led by lawyers specializing in personal information protection and IT, launched a campaign called 'SKT Personal Information Protection'. A task force (TF) dedicated to the ‘leak’ was formed to respond. The TF is in charge of all legal procedures for collective damages claims and recovery of damages caused by personal information leaks. Daeryun announced that he plans to file a complaint against SK Telecom at the police station under the jurisdiction of the headquarters for obstruction of official duties, etc. This is to hold clear responsibility for this leak and reveal the true nature of the incident. Additionally, Daeryun plans to deploy experts from the Digital Forensics Center to the task force to conduct an investigation to confirm the exact damage. Analysis and response plan establishment to prove direct and indirect damage to victims have been completed. In the future, only applicants will be submitted with SIM issuance history, device information, and basic communication-related data, and when abnormalities are found, additional in-depth analysis will be conducted to support proof of damage. Applications to participate in the SKT personal information leak class action lawsuit can be made on the Daeryun Law Firm website. Daeryun Kim Gook-il, CEO of Daeryun Law Firm, said, "Currently, inquiries from customers are continuously coming in. As it is difficult to predict what damage will occur in a situation where personal information has already been stolen, the scale of damage is expected to increase further." “The victim must directly prove that the damage was caused by SKT, and it is judged that the compensation process will be possible only after going through all the processes,” he said. He added, “We will do our best to support the victims so that they can receive fair compensation through a class action lawsuit, while holding SK Telecom clearly accountable.” (sisalaw@lawissue.co.kr)[View full article] Roishu - Daeryun Law Firm, recruiting participants for ‘SKT personal information leakage class action lawsuit’ (Go here) KBC Gwangju Broadcasting - "I'll just move on"... 70,000 SKT subscribers left in two days due to hacking concerns (link) Sejeong Ilbo - Daeryun Law Firm initiates ‘class lawsuit’ over SKT personal information leak (Go here) Seoul Shinmun - Daeryun Law Firm, recruiting participants for class action lawsuit over ‘SKT SIM information leak’ (Go here) Financial News - Daeryun Law Firm seeks relief for SKT personal information leak damage (Click here) Kukje Newspaper - ‘SKT hacking’ class action lawsuit… Daeryun Law Firm, recruiting participants for damages claims (Go here) Law Leader - Daeryun Law Firm pursues class action lawsuit against SKT for personal information leakage (Go here) Yonhap Infomax - SKT hacking victims gather...

For sustainable management, it is important to comply with legal requirements and prevent risks. In particular, small business owners and small and medium-sized enterprises need to be careful because minor mistakes often lead to fatal results due to relatively insufficient management organizations such as legal affairs, tax affairs, and labor. Therefore, in order to run a business stably, it is necessary to keep in mind the key points that must be checked. First of all, in the process of laying the foundation for your business, you must properly select business registration and legal form. This is because taxes, scope of responsibility, and financing methods vary depending on whether you operate as a sole proprietor or establish a corporation. For example, a sole proprietorship is relatively easy to establish and operate, but there is a risk that business debt can affect personal assets. On the other hand, corporations have separate legal responsibilities, but the establishment procedures are complicated and operating regulations are more stringent than individual businesses. In addition, essential licenses and permits must be checked depending on the industry. In the case of the restaurant business, along with business registration, it is essential to take hygiene and fire safety training and sign up for fire compensation insurance and liability insurance. Medical businesses must have a license and obtain permission from an administrative agency, and education businesses must also submit documents such as an application for academy establishment registration to the Office of Education. If you choose a corporation during the establishment process, you must prepare the articles of incorporation and organize the shareholder list systematically to prevent future legal disputes. Reviewing the contract is also an area that cannot be neglected. Some businesses rely on verbal agreements, but this can be disadvantageous in the event of a legal dispute. A contract is not simply a formal procedure, but a key means of preventing risks that may arise in the future. In all employment relationships, writing an employment contract is basic, and if you work with a partner, writing a partnership agreement is essential. Also, in relationships with business partners, payment terms, delivery schedule, and scope of responsibility must be made clear through contracts. Transactions conducted without a service contract or supply contract can result in significant losses due to a minor misunderstanding. Human resources and labor management are also commonly overlooked aspects of small and medium-sized business management. If there are five or more full-time workers, labor laws such as the 52-hour workweek must be observed. Along with signing an employment contract, it is also essential to provide a salary slip. In addition, if annual leave and severance pay standards are not followed, there is a high possibility of being involved in an investigation by the Labor Office or a legal dispute with workers. In particular, as the protection of worker rights, such as workplace harassment and unfair dismissal, has become more important, preventive measures such as internal employee training have become important. Although the human resources management system may be lacking at the beginning of the business, if it is not improved during the growth stage, it may face unexpected legal disputes. Tax and financial management are important factors that determine the sustainability of the business. Unlike large corporations, small business owners and small and medium-sized businesses often find it difficult to hire tax experts, so they need basic tax knowledge and procedures to familiarize themselves with reporting procedures. Value-added tax (VAT) reporting, income tax, and corporate tax payment schedules must be carefully managed, and it is best to prepare in advance to reduce the burden of additional tax. It is also important to use tax saving strategies and properly prove legally recognized expenses. For example, work-related expenses must be recognized as expenses by thoroughly managing receipts. Also, in the case of small business owners, if they have employees, they must not forget to report earned income withholding tax and the four major insurance policies. Lastly, protection of intellectual property rights is directly related to long-term brand strategy. Registering your business name and brand trademark right from the start of your business will be helpful in case of future legal disputes. Assets such as logos, content, and product designs must also take copyright protection measures to prevent unauthorized use. In particular, as online business becomes more active, brand value has become more important, and trademark disputes abusing this are increasing, so caution is required. Conversely, you may make the mistake of unknowingly infringing on another company's patent or trademark, so you should conduct a thorough review before filing.

He continued to commit crimes for 40 years, and shocked his daughter's granddaughter by committing sexual assault as well. The court expressed, “It is deplorable that something can happen in our society.” This is a symbolic example that shows the isolation of victims of sexual crimes against relatives. Sexual crimes against relatives are usually not revealed to the public and the reporting rate is low. Since most of the victims are minors, it is not easy to recognize and respond to the crime. This is because they are often economically and emotionally dependent on the perpetrator and are reluctant to raise issues. According to the Korea Sexual Violence Relief Center, 55% of victims took more than 10 years to receive counseling after the initial victimization. Serious crimes are being concealed for a long period of time within the framework of the family. Punishment for sexual assault that occurred between relatives carries a heavy sentence under the criminal law. According to Article 5, Paragraph 1 of the Special Act on the Punishment of Sexual Crimes, if a relative rapes another person through assault or intimidation, he or she will be sentenced to imprisonment for a limited period of 7 years or more. Also, under the Sexual Violence Punishment Act, relative relationships are interpreted much more broadly than in civil law. For example, ‘relatives based on de facto relationship’ are not included in the Civil Code, but are included in the Sexual Violence Punishment Act. This can be easily understood by recalling the case where a stepfather in his 40s committed relative sexual assault against his teenage stepdaughter and was sentenced to 10 years in prison. The statute of limitations for such relative sexual crimes has been gradually expanded. In 2010, when the Special Act on the Punishment of Sexual Violence Crimes was revised, a new regulation was established to ensure that the statute of limitations runs from the date the victim becomes an adult. This takes into account the unique fact that it takes time to report because most victims and perpetrators stay in the same place. Also, in 2012, the statute of limitations for rape and forcible molestation of girls under 13 and disabled women was abolished. In July of last year, an amendment was proposed to expand this to those aged 13 to 19. This trend indicates that social awareness of the seriousness of the crime and the need for victims to recover is expanding further. There are three realistic response measures that victims of relative sexual assault can take. The first thing to do is to apply for a protection order so that you can be separated from the perpetrator. If the court implements temporary measures such as eviction and access ban, the perpetrator will not be able to access the victim's home or other residential areas, and if they violate this, they can be imprisoned for up to one year or fined up to 10 million won. The second option is to receive quick and anonymous legal and medical support through the Sunflower Center or the Women's Emergency Hotline 1366. It is effective in initial response because you can receive follow-up support during counseling, such as △connection with investigative agencies, △connection with medical institutions, and psychological counseling. As a third and final option, a separate civil lawsuit is possible. It is possible to claim compensation for mental damage separately from criminal proceedings. Such procedures require a systematic analysis of legal issues, so it is advisable to receive legal assistance from a sex crime lawyer. Myeong-cheol Kim, a sex crime lawyer at the Daeryun Law Firm, said, "Sexual assault by relatives leaves a psychological trauma on the victim. Even if they take legal action, there are times when they feel guilty in the name of family. However, the longer the silence lasts, the more the victim will remain in pain and the perpetrator is likely to avoid responsibility. Therefore, having the courage to speak out can be the most important first step. “There is,” he advised.[View full article] Relative sexual assault requires courageous legal response to escape the tunnel of concealment (link) 2026-05-14T01:12:06.291Z https://www.daeryunlaw.com/en/broadcast/5078 The court found a driver in his 60s not guilty on charges of hitting and killing a pedestrian who was jaywalking on a deserted road in the dark of early morning. According to the legal community on the 29th, the Namyangju Branch of Uijeongbu District Court found Mr. A not guilty on the 13th of last month on charges of violating the Special Act on Traffic Accidents (death). Mr. A was driving at a speed of 30 km/h on a one-way two-lane road in Gapyeong-gun, Gyeonggi Province, around 1 a.m. last May. He was put on trial on charges of hitting and killing Mr. B, who was jaywalking while driving a medium-sized truck at a speed of 63 km. Mr. B was immediately taken to the hospital, but died while receiving treatment. At the trial, Mr. A pleaded not guilty. Mr. A's side argued, "There was no professional negligence because it was early morning at the time of the accident and we could not have predicted that Mr. B would jaywalk. The speed limit on the road where the accident occurred was 70 km/h, and the speed limit was also complied with." The court accepted Mr. A's argument. This is because the road where the accident occurred can be seen as a one-way street as the two lanes on each side are separated from each other, and there are no permits or commercial facilities nearby, so there are few people and there are no crosswalks installed, so it was difficult to predict that such an accident would occur. Mr. A's legal representative, Yoo Jae-young, attorney at Daeryun Law Firm, said, "The incident occurred in the dark of the night, and Mr. B's clothes were also dark-colored, making it difficult for drivers to recognize pedestrians jaywalking. “It appears that the court took these circumstances into consideration and reached a not guilty verdict.” Reporter Jeong Cheol-wook[View full article] Seoul Newspaper - Driver in his 60s killed after hitting jaywalking pedestrian early in the morning, not guilty (Click here) Herald Economy - Man in his 60s found not guilty after running over and killing a jaywalking pedestrian in the dark of early morning (Shortcut) 2026-05-07T02:14:13.589Z https://www.daeryunlaw.com/en/broadcast/5077 A year after transferring the store, it opened in the same administrative district... “The royalties must be returned.” The court said, “There is no clause prohibiting competition in the contract… It is difficult to regard it as being in the same commercial area.” If the business transfer agreement was written in the form of a real estate lease contract and there was no separate clause prohibiting competition, the court ruled that it is difficult to apply the duty to prohibit competition under the Commercial Act. On the 13th of last month, the Jeonju District Court ruled that Plaintiff A lost in a lawsuit seeking compensation between restaurant owners A and B. Mr. A signed a contract to take over Mr. B's restaurant in 2020. At that time, Mr. A paid Mr. B about 70 million won, including the existing lease deposit and key money. However, the following year, a problem arose when Mr. B opened a restaurant somewhere else. The menu composition of the two stores overlapped as they sold similar food to the store that was handed over to Mr. A. Mr. A claimed that Mr. B violated the duty of non-competition. This is because at the time of signing the contract, they promised not to open a restaurant with the same menu within the same administrative district. In addition, they emphasized that the key money handed over during the contract process should be returned, saying that such violations led to a decrease in store sales and led to the closure of the business. In response, Mr. B countered that the obligation to prohibit competition under the Commercial Act does not apply because the store was transferred through a ‘real estate lease contract’ rather than a ‘goodwill sales contract’. At the same time, he argued that the names of the two stores were clearly different and that sales would not be affected by opening in a different commercial area from Mr. A. The court ruled in Mr. B's favor. The court said, “The transfer agreement was written in the form of a real estate lease agreement, and the contents did not include matters related to the obligation to prohibit competition,” and added, “There is no evidence of a promise not to open a business in the same administrative district.” He added, “The two stores have to travel 10km by car or bus, so they are a considerable distance away and their delivery areas do not overlap,” and added, “It is difficult to say that they belong to the same commercial district because there are restaurants selling similar menus in between.” In this case, Mr. Attorney Lee Ha-neul of Daeryun Law Firm, who represented the company, explained, “If you look at the transfer agreement, matters such as the transfer of business know-how, succession of business partners and employment, and the obligation to prohibit competition, etc. were not mentioned,” and explained, “This contract should be seen as meaning a key money agreement in which the new lessee pays separately to the existing lessee, not a business transfer contract under Article 41 of the Commercial Act.” Reporter Kim Jong-cheol (jckim99@sportsseoul.com)[View full article] The owner transferred the restaurant and reopened with the same menu...

On the 28th, the Daejeon District Prosecutors' Office announced that it had decided not to indict Mr. A, a man in his 60s who was sent on charges of violating the Act on Equal Employment Opportunity for Men and Women and Support for Work-Family Balance on the 11th of last month. Although sexual harassment occurred within the company he was CEO in 2022, Mr. A was accused of trying to cover up the incident without a separate investigation or protective measure. Sexual harassment The victim, Mr. B, claimed that not only did Mr. A try to cover up the incident, but he also failed to keep confidentiality, which spread rumors within the workplace and caused him extreme psychological damage. According to Article 14 of the Equal Employment Opportunity Act, if an employer becomes aware of sexual harassment in the workplace, he/she must conduct an investigation to confirm the facts without delay and prevent the victim from feeling sexual shame during the investigation process. Additionally, a person who investigates the occurrence of sexual harassment or is briefed on the details of the investigation must disclose secrets learned during the investigation to others. You must not divulge it. Mr. A completely denied the charges. They said they did their best to resolve the problem, such as meeting with Mr. B's parents and talking to them. They also explained that they perceived the case as closed because Mr. B did not raise any issues after receiving the perpetrator's apology. The prosecution explained, "It is acknowledged that the case was closed rather quickly, but there were no circumstances of intentional ignorance or concealment by Mr. A." He added, "At the time, the conversation with Mr. B's parents ended smoothly, and from Mr. He added, "Mr. B has never raised an objection to the procedure or result for more than two years since then." Dong-gu Kim of the Daeryun Law Firm, who represented Mr. A, said, "If sexual harassment occurs in the workplace, the case is handled in one of two ways, such as reaching an agreement between the parties or conducting a formal investigation." He added, "At the time, Mr. Shin Min-ji (sourminjee@ikbc.co.kr) explained, “I didn’t do it.”[View full article] The representative who dismissed sexual harassment in the workplace was 'not guilty'...

However, this point is not exactly a problem of ‘network law firms.’ Rather, the reality of deceptive advertising like the above mostly comes from the ‘separate production system’. The ‘separate law firm’ appears to be a single law firm on the outside, but its actual operation method is not integrated at all. This is because each member independently manages events and resulting profits. In reality, it operates in a similar way to a private office. In the case of these law firms, advertisements emphasize the law firm's collaboration and organized response, but in reality, many cases are handled by lawyers alone. In other words, it is reasonable to view the advertising cases that the Bar Association was concerned about as structural problems that commonly occur in separate law firms, not network law firms. It is unclear who is handling the case, whether the entire organization is jointly responsible, and whether computers, data, and manpower are shared within the organization. Legal consumers form trust only by looking at the appearance of the organization, but in reality, they end up relying on the piecemeal handling of work by individual lawyers. In fact, the structural problems with the separate production system have been pointed out several times over the years. A representative example is the case of Attorney A, who failed to appear several times at a school violence trial and had the lawsuit withdrawn. Immediately after the incident occurred, the branch office of the law firm to which the lawyer belonged drew a line, stating, ‘The lawyer in question has withdrawn from the main office and is not affiliated with our branch office.’ This is an incident that exposes the structural limitations of the separate system, which entrusts work entirely to individual lawyers and allows them to perform it independently, and the damage is falling on the general public. Nevertheless, the Bar Association seems to be ignoring the essence of the problem. The Korean Bar Association is ignoring the problem of the separate system, which has been pointed out for a long time, and shifting responsibility by creating an unclear term called ‘network law firm’ that does not even have a legal definition. In practice, the negative frame of 'network' is placed on a place with a 'one firm' structure that operates as 'one law firm' by integrating the computer, human resources, and profit systems, while it does not take issue with the separate product system structure, which is inconsistent between the true substance and appearance. This is a neglect of the Bar Association’s original responsibility to protect the rights of the people and ensure transparency of consumer information. The real problem is ‘structure’. Cases where the organizational system revealed in advertising does not match the actual operating system can be seen as a direct cause of misleading consumers. The legal service market should be evaluated by its responsibility structure and actual operating system, not by its signboard or name. Even if they share the same brand, law firms that use computers, data, and human resources together and have a shared responsibility system can protect consumers by providing a higher level of integrated services. Now, the essence must be corrected. The non-essential frame of a ‘network law firm’ must be removed and institutional arrangements must be made starting with separate law firms. Consumers have the right to know the truth. If a law firm advertises itself as an organization, its operations must also be one. Unless this is made clear, trust in the legal services market can no longer be restored.[View full article] [Contribution] ‘Structural deception’ Byeolsan law firms need to overhaul their systems (Click here) 2026-05-13T06:08:28.117Z https://www.daeryunlaw.com/en/broadcast/5071 An office worker who was handed over to the prosecution for falsely accusing a business partner of embezzling company money was not indicted. On the 13th of last month, the Western Branch of the Busan District Prosecutors' Office cleared Mr. A, a man in his 50s, on charges of false accusation. Mr. A accused his business partner B of embezzlement and breach of trust in 2022. filed a complaint. However, Mr. B was cleared of the charges by the prosecution, and later counter-sued Mr. A on false accusations. In addition, Mr. B claimed that Mr. A had disclosed false information to his business partners, defaming him and interfering with the company's business. Mr. A denied the charges. It was claimed that Mr. B withdrew about 200 million won from the company's bank account without permission and then disappeared, leaving no choice but to suspect embezzlement. The charge of defamation also emphasized that there was no intention, as the situation was explained to a business partner who could mediate contact with Mr. B. The prosecution determined that Mr. A was not guilty. The prosecution said, “A misunderstanding occurred because the report was omitted during the payment process,” and “The suspect filed the complaint because he thought the victim had actually committed embezzlement.” He added, “Even in the conversation with the business partner, no specific facts that could damage the reputation of the accuser were mentioned,” adding, “It is difficult to prove that the company’s order volume has decreased due to such remarks.” Attorney Jang Ho-cheol of Daeryun Law Firm, who represented Mr. “Even if it does not match, if you thought it was the truth, it does not constitute a false accusation,” he said. “Since Mr. B withdrew a large amount of money that determines the existence of the company, we have no choice but to think that it was embezzlement, so it can be seen that there was no intention to falsely accuse.” Digital Content Team[View full article] An office worker in his 50s who falsely reported “I stole company money”… Prosecutor’s ‘not guilty’ (Shortcut) 2026-05-09T02:14:40.630Z https://www.daeryunlaw.com/en/broadcast/5069 Served in multiple departments at the Fair Trade Commission... The need to improve systems and customs is highlighted amid growing interest in the professional market in the field of fair trade and subcontracting. Fair trade and subcontracting are areas in which market interest continues to grow. It is mentioned here and there based on a variety of backgrounds, including economic democratization, power relations, protection of small and medium-sized enterprises, and revision of related systems. As government ministries grow, the number of investigative personnel is expanding, and the number of sanctions in the market is also increasing. Companies and law firms responding to this also appear to be busy. Gye-Jun Son, an attorney at Daeryun Law Firm, is an expert specializing in the field. At the Fair Trade Commission, he worked in various positions, including the Subcontracting Department, Cartel Department, Litigation Department, Terms and Conditions Review Department, Customer Support Department, and Special Transactions Department. In addition, he served as a member of the Fair Trade Division of the Prime Minister's Office Regulatory Judgment Committee, a private review member of the Re-report Case Review Committee, a member of the Construction Subcontract Dispute Mediation Council, and an arbitrator at the Korea Commercial Arbitration Board.Together with Attorney Son, we learn about fair trade and subcontracting advisory aspects, characteristics of each field, market issues, and institutional improvements needed. The following is a Q&A with Attorney Son. -Please introduce your current work and history at Daeryun. △I am the head of Daeryun’s corporate legal group. He worked at the Fair Trade Commission for about 10 years and worked at a law firm before joining Daeryun at the end of last year. Our work areas cover all aspects of corporate law, including fair trade, subcontracting, franchises, intellectual property rights, and corporate mergers and acquisitions (M&A). -What kind of fair trade advice is there? What is the difference from other fields? △ In most cases, fair trade advisory involves a company inquiring in advance about whether it violates the ‘Fair Trade Act’ from an external legal expert during the business planning stage. However, the Fair Trade Act often uses uncertain concepts such as ‘restriction of competition’ or ‘unfairness’. It is difficult to definitively determine whether the law has been violated. It has the characteristic of being largely dependent on the precedents of the Fair Trade Commission, a law enforcement authority. -Recently, there has been a lot of talk about the Compliance System (CP) in the field of fair trade. △As the benefit of reduced fines due to CP operation has been legislated, many companies have become interested. Applications for rating evaluation began last month, and the number is said to have doubled compared to previous years. There are three changes in this year's CP grade evaluation: evaluation stage, additional points, and evaluation procedure. First, the order of the evaluation stages has changed. Previous evaluations were conducted in the order of documents, on-site evaluation, and in-depth interviews, but starting this year, face-to-face evaluations (interviews) will be conducted after document evaluation. As on-site evaluations were conducted for companies that recorded (scheduled) a score of 85 or higher in the face-to-face evaluation, the evaluation process and tasks were somewhat simplified. Gasan branches were also opened or changed. First, additional points were added to the agreement implementation evaluation. This is based on the agreement implementation evaluation grade of the year immediately preceding the application for CP rating evaluation. Additional points are added: 1.5 points for best and 1 point for excellent. In the evaluation procedure, the classifications of grade invalidation, grade withholding, and grade adjustment except grade invalidation have been abolished. Grade withholding is a system that withholds a grade when it is inappropriate to assign a grade due to concerns about CP fairness and reliability, and grade adjustment is a lowering of measures if a violation of the law occurs before or after the grade is assigned. It would be good if CP becomes more active and improves in a way that increases practicality. -What types of subcontracting advice are there? △The ‘Act on Fair Subcontracting Transactions’ so-called subcontracting law advice can be broadly divided into those related to payment and those related to technology theft. The contractor (primary contractor) must not set the subcontract price at an unreasonably low level, and cannot reduce it without justifiable cause. Payment must be made within 60 days after delivery. Most advice on subcontracting law concerns these payments. Recently, requests for or misappropriation of technical data from suppliers (subcontractors) without justifiable reasons have become a problem. The Fair Trade Commission is severely sanctioning this, and issues such as whether it truly constitutes technical data or whether a justifiable reason is recognized are being addressed. -What are the industries with particularly high levels of subcontracting advice? What are the characteristics of this? △The subcontracting law applies to three industries: manufacturing, construction, and services. Among these, many problems appear, especially in the manufacturing industry. As the division of labor and specialization in the manufacturing industry progresses, many subcontracting issues are arising, and the Subcontracting Act regulations also comprehensively stipulate manufacturing subcontracting. -If there are any institutional or customary improvements in this regard. △There is a need to improve the direct payment system of the orderer (orderer-principal contractor-subcontractor structure). The direct payment system is a system in which the subcontractor directly requests payment of the subcontract amount to the orderer when the principal contractor becomes insolvent or delays payment of the subcontract amount. However, currently, there is a problem that if the contractor's creditor first seizes the contract payment claim, the subcontractor cannot exercise its right to claim directly. In order to overcome these limitations, it is necessary to establish a new provision in the Subcontracting Act that states that the portion corresponding to the subcontract payment cannot be seized. -What do you feel after working in the industry for a long time? △In the field of fair trade, the response capabilities of companies themselves have increased compared to the past. This is interpreted as preparation for the risk of being subject to huge fines if fair trade laws are violated. The Fair Trade Commission's ability to investigate alleged violations of the law is also incomparable to the past. However, many point out that the procedural rights of companies being investigated for violating the law are still not sufficiently protected. Unlike the prosecution's investigation, it is a voluntary investigation that is premised on the consent of the person under investigation. However, in case of refusal or obstruction of the investigation, fines and imprisonment are possible, so it is effectively operated like a compulsory investigation. The legitimate scope of investigation by Fair Trade Commission investigators during on-site investigations continues to be an issue. In order to increase the acceptability of sanctions such as fines, due process must be strictly observed.

Pharmaceutical companies in ‘emergency’ [Daeryun’s Biz law forum] (Shortcut) 2026-05-14T04:05:31.977Z https://www.daeryunlaw.com/en/broadcast/5066 When a small business owner dies, the surviving family members have no choice but to consider selling if management is difficult. Most of them have problems with off-balance-sheet debt and advance payments, such as policy funds loans, so advance preparation for inheritance is necessary. Mid-sized companies such as Hanssem and Lock & Lock were sold to private equity funds. The excessive burden of inheritance tax is often cited as the main cause behind this. Coincidentally, both companies switched to a professional management system after the sale, but the management situation actually worsened. This clearly shows how difficult it is to run a small and medium-sized business. When the representative of a small business dies, the number of cases where the spouse or children consult about inheritance tax issues and whether to sell the company has recently been increasing. Here is one example: There was a representative of a company who earned a stable income through salary and dividends during his lifetime. The representative was directly responsible for everything from sales to operations. My spouse didn't know anything about business. The children were young. After the sudden death of the CEO, there was no manpower to replace him, and it became unclear whether the business would continue, leading to inquiries as to ‘Should I give up the inheritance if a suitable buyer does not appear?’ The family remembered that the deceased had said during his lifetime, “I created off-balance-sheet debt while trying to make my financial situation look good for policy fund loans, etc.” In the actual sale due diligence process, problems such as off-balance sheet liabilities as well as advance payments were identified, and in the process of selling the company, the representative's personal joint guarantees related to bank loans had to be sorted out as well. When reporting inheritance tax, if there is no market value for unlisted stocks, the ‘supplementary valuation method’ is applied. In this case, the net profit/loss value per share for three years retroactively based on the valuation base date and the net asset value per share at the valuation base date are evaluated by weighting the average at a ratio of 3:2, respectively. However, if the proportion of real estate among the company's assets is more than 50%, the ratio of 2:3 is applied. In addition, if the amount calculated in this way is less than 80% of the net asset value per share, the final evaluation is adjusted to 80% of the net asset value per share. However, if profits were overstated in consideration of loans during the tax reporting process for the past three years, the net profit and loss value and net asset value were evaluated high as a result, and the value of inherited unlisted stocks was also overestimated. In this case, to correct this in order to reduce inheritance tax, it is necessary to ensure that off-balance sheet liabilities actually existed. The facts must be proven. In addition, if the representative's advance payment is confirmed, the amount may be considered as the deceased's income, which may result in a comprehensive income tax tax problem separate from inheritance tax. During the sale due diligence process, it was confirmed that business performance deteriorated sharply in a short period of time after the representative's death. As issues such as off-balance sheet liabilities overlapped, the acquisition amount had no choice but to be set lower than the supplementary valuation amount under the Inheritance Tax and Gift Tax Act. In this process, the heirs even experienced an emotional conflict with the buyer who was an acquaintance of the representative. Ultimately, after many twists and turns, the matter was resolved when the heirs found a third buyer and sold the company for a slightly lower amount than the amount initially discussed. If the company did not sell at such a low amount, there may be a situation where the tax authorities impose an overestimated inheritance tax based on the supplementary assessment amount under the Inheritance Tax and Gift Tax Act. Looking at these cases, the founders of Hanssem and Lock&Lock may have made a wise decision for the future by selling the companies to a private equity fund at a time when the business environment was good rather than passing the companies on to their children. Owners of small and medium-sized businesses have to navigate uncertain management situations every day, and at the same time, they have the difficult task of preparing in advance what kind of situation their families will face in the event of an unexpected accident.[View full article] A management crisis that begins after death...

In March, the Pyeongtaek Police Station in Gyeonggi Province decided not to forward a man in his 30s, Mr. A, who was suspected of failing to enter official records, etc. Mr. A was accused of filing a false marriage report with B, a woman he met through an acquaintance in 2023. Mr. B claimed that Mr. A had borrowed hundreds of millions of won from his family to move into a newly built apartment at the time, and that he had registered his marriage with him in order to repay this through a special housing loan for newlyweds. Mr. A denied the charges. It is true that he tried to repay the money he received through a loan to his family, but he emphasized that the loan was not the only purpose of the marriage. He added that the reason for the divorce was also due to personality differences with Mr. B. The police determined that Mr. A was not guilty. In order for it to be acknowledged that there was no intention to marry, it must be clearly acknowledged that the marriage was pretended from the beginning. The police determined that there was no specific and objective evidence to support Mr. B's claim. The police said, "The two purposes of a loan and marriage are compatible," and added, "Unless it is revealed that the loan was the only purpose of marriage, we cannot conclude that Mr. A truly has no intention of marrying." Attorney Kim Kyung-ah of Daeryun Law Firm, who represented Mr. A, said, "It is categorical to discuss criminal punishment solely for the fact that he requested a divorce immediately after registering his marriage." “During the investigation, we emphasized the fact that real estate was not a means of coercing marriage but an opportunity to decide to marry, and we were able to exonerate the charges by pointing out that Mr. B’s actions could create innocent victims,” he said.

The court has been contemplating for 20 days over the appointment of a new manager. Samjung Enterprise, which is undergoing corporate rehabilitation procedures, is deliberating over the appointment of a new manager while its chairman was arrested due to a fire at the Banyan Tree in Busan. According to the legal community on the 24th, the Busan Rehabilitation Court is in charge of the corporate rehabilitation of Samjung Enterprise and Samjeong E&C. The 2nd Rehabilitation Division (Presiding Judge Han Kyeong-geun) is in the process of appointing a new manager. When the court initially decided to initiate rehabilitation procedures for Samjung Enterprise and Samjung E&C on the 19th of last month, it did not separately appoint a manager. The court usually guarantees the continuity of the representative's management by appointing the existing manager as a manager or considering the existing representative as a manager if the existing manager has not committed a serious management mistake such as embezzlement. Although they applied for rehabilitation procedures due to a management crisis, the purpose is to repay debts by normalizing management, so continuous management, including the existing manager's management know-how, trust relationships with customers, and sales, is possible. However, on the 4th, arrest warrants were issued for Samjeong Enterprise Chairman Park Jeong-oh and Samjeong E&C CEO Park Sang-cheon, who were under investigation for the Busan Banyan Tree fire incident, on charges of violating the Serious Accident Punishment Act. The managers who are in charge of the rehabilitation procedures of the two companies The position became vacant overnight. Currently, the restructuring officer (CRO) appointed by the court is acting on behalf of essential tasks such as salary payment, but if the administrator's absence is prolonged, the corporate revival of Samjung Enterprise and Samjung E&C may be disrupted. It is known that the court has been mulling over the appointment of a new administrator for about three weeks. A court official said, "As Samjung Enterprise and Samjung E&C are large companies in the region, the court decided to appoint a new manager. “We are putting a lot of thought into selecting a manager,” he said. “As the company is large, we need to select someone who knows the internal circumstances of Samjeong Enterprises well, but we are considering it carefully as investigations are currently continuing within the company.” Kim Won-sang, an attorney at Daeryun Law Firm, said, “Usually, when the existing manager is legally arrested for a criminal case, an external third party is appointed as the manager.” He added, “There is a pool of third-party managers within the rehabilitation court, and generally people from the financial sector, such as banks and securities companies, and large corporations. He explained, “It is composed of people who have served as financial directors, etc.,” and added, “It seems that the appointment of a new manager is being delayed because among these people, we need to find people who have experience working at least in a management position in an industry similar to Samjeong Enterprises or who have extensive experience working with large-scale companies from the financial sector.” Reporter Kwon Tae-wan (kwon97@newsis.com)[View full article] Samjeong Enterprises, whose chairman was arrested due to the Banyan Tree fire, is 'drifting' in rehabilitation procedures... Can't find the manager for 3 weeks (Shortcut) 2026-05-13T11:43:02.472Z https://www.daeryunlaw.com/en/broadcast/5056 Mr. A, a man in his 40s, was indicted on charges of forcible harassment early this year and sentenced to a fine in the first trial. The victim was a contract employee who worked at the same company. Mr. A was accused of touching the victim's body parts at a company dinner, but most of the charges were acknowledged at trial. This was because there were multiple witnesses, and other employees also testified that they had suffered similar damage from Mr. A. The prosecutor filed an appeal, saying that his client should be sentenced to prison. The client, who was once again in danger of being sentenced to prison, needed the help of a sex crime lawyer. The author who was in charge of this case first figured out the overall circumstances of the incident. After recognizing that an agreement with the victim could not be reached in the first trial, efforts were made to recover the damage, and as a result, a final agreement was reached. During the appeal process, these changed circumstances were emphasized and appeals were made for leniency. The appeals court dismissed the prosecutor's appeal. As the fine from the first trial was maintained, Mr. A was able to escape the risk of imprisonment. In the case above, if additional information unfavorable to Mr. A were revealed during the appeal process, a more severe punishment could have been imposed. This can be seen as a case where good results were achieved thanks to strategic judgment and quick response. In this way, forced harassment due to work-related power, etc. occurs due to power relations within the group. In most cases, the victim's free will is suppressed through dominance similar to a superior-subordinate relationship at work. Due to these characteristics, this crime is punished as an indecent assault by force in the workplace, etc. in accordance with the Special Act on the Punishment of Sexual Violence Crimes (Sexual Violence Punishment Act). According to Article 10 of the Sexual Violence Punishment Act, a person who harasses a person who is under his or her protection or supervision due to work, employment, or other relationships by means of fraud or force shall be punished by imprisonment for not more than three years or by a fine not exceeding 15 million won. What is important to note here is that an illegal act is recognized even if assault or threats, which are the elements of forcible harassment, are not used. Accordingly, the scope of the crime has expanded and the possibility of punishment has also increased. In addition, the sentencing standards have also been significantly raised. The Supreme Court Sentencing Committee held its 137th meeting last month and recommended that the basic statutory sentence for indecent assault by force at work be ‘6 months to 1 year.’ In addition, depending on the severity of the act, a maximum sentence of '10 months to 2 years' can be imposed, and if the crime is of poor quality, the upper limit of the sentence recommended by the sentencing standards can be specially increased by up to one-half. Attorney Lee Seung-chan of Daeryun Law Firm said, "Because forced sexual assault by force in the workplace is a sexual crime, if found guilty, security measures such as registration and disclosure of personal information and employment restrictions may also be imposed. Therefore, early in the investigation to prevent charges from being applied as much as possible. “It can be said that the best way is to develop a response strategy that suits your situation from the beginning.” If charges have already been applied, the top priority should be securing objective evidence to prove one’s claim, such as CCTV records at the time of the incident, text messages, and witness statements. It is necessary to maintain a consistent position in the statements of the investigative agency, and it is also necessary to keep in mind that an amicable agreement with the victim also plays an important role in handling the case.

The systems for self-development include refresh leave and career development leave. Self-development refresh leave is implemented to support employees’ recharge through rest, and can be used for up to 12 months. Executives and employees who seek to improve their job skills through graduate school, acquisition of certification, or overseas training can use the career development leave system for up to 24 months. Daeryun also strengthens a customized work-family work-family balance system to encourage customized childbirth and childrearing. This is to maintain the management value of being a family-friendly law firm and participate in overcoming the low birth rate crisis, which is a national task. Accordingly, executives and employees can utilize childcare leave, family care leave, infertility support leave, pre-adoption care leave, and shortened work hours during the childcare period. Spouses can also apply for infertility support leave, which allows them to have a period of time to prepare for planning a child, and is available for up to 3 months at a time. It can also be extended if necessary. Pre-adoption care leave can be used for up to 6 months to care for a child before or after adoption. This can also be extended if necessary. In addition, Daeryun supports women going through pregnancy, childbirth, and raising children so that they can work at the company without worrying about career interruption, and encourages male executives and employees to use related benefits such as parental leave and spousal maternity leave. As a result of operating these family-friendly policies, Daeryun received high praise for job creation, welfare system, and social contribution last year, and was selected as the ‘Best Job Creation’ by the Korea Credit Guarantee Fund.

According to the legal community on the 23rd, the Nonsan Branch of the Daejeon District Court recently found Mr. A, a man in his 60s, not guilty on charges of forging private documents and attempted fraud. Mr. A lent 50 million won in cash to Mr. B, who was a real estate customer, on several occasions in 2019. At the time, the two men signed an IOU and a promise to pay interest; Mr. B passed away the following year due to a chronic illness. Afterwards, Mr. B's surviving family sued Mr. A, alleging that he had prepared a false IOU even though he had never lent money to Mr. B. In the process, the bereaved family submitted a signature evaluation result showing that the handwriting on the certificate did not match Mr. B's and claimed Mr. A's guilt. However, Mr. A immediately denied the charge. He claimed that he had actually lent the money and that the IOU was also written according to Mr. B's will. He explained that he had lent tens of millions of won in cash, saying, "Mr. B owned a house and land and said, 'I will repay even if I sell the land,' so I did not raise any suspicions." The court declared Mr. A not guilty. The court ruled, "If you look at the evaluation results submitted by the complainant, the handwriting on the IOU is different from Mr. B's handwriting," but "this content alone does not admit that Mr. A signed arbitrarily." “If Mr. A actually forged the handwriting, we need to know how he came to possess the stamp on the license, but this cannot be confirmed.” Attorney Byeon Gwan-hoon of Daeryun Law Firm, who represented Mr. A, said, “In the case of forgery of private documents, the ‘motive of forgery’ is an important basis for judgment.” “There is no reason to write it more than twice,” he emphasized.

According to the legal community on the 23rd, the Busan District Court recently ruled in favor of the plaintiff in a lawsuit filed by landowner A against Busan City to partially cancel the disposition for designation of a maintenance area, including a disposition for designation of a maintenance area. The city is pursuing an apartment redevelopment project in 2023 and plans to transform about 38,000 m2 of land into a maintenance area. specified. Mr. A's land was included here, and Mr. A requested that his land be excluded from the maintenance area due to the reconstruction of a commercial building. However, the city of Busan rejected Mr. A's request on the grounds that it would reduce the public interest of the development, and Mr. A filed a lawsuit. Mr. A argued that his land was only a small part of the total development area, so even if it was excluded, it would not affect the progress of the redevelopment project. He also emphasized that the adjacent land had been excluded from the maintenance area for the same reason, and that including only his own land violated the principle of equality. In addition, he added that if the land is included in the maintenance area, its use will change from a general commercial area to an exclusive residential area and its value will drop. The city countered that if Mr. A's land is excluded, there is a risk of residual land being created and the road entering the maintenance area will disappear. At the same time, he explained that if Mr. A's land is excluded, there may be issues of equity with other landowners incorporated into the development area. The court ruled in Mr. A's favor. When looking at the land map, it was determined that if the land was included in the maintenance area, adjacent lands would remain as remnants, and since there was already other land corresponding to the road, it was unclear whether Mr. A's land was really necessary. At the same time, it is not clear what contribution to the public interest will be made if Mr. A's land is included in the maintenance zone, but it is believed that Mr. A will face serious restrictions in exercising his property rights.

It was announced that the reciprocal tariff rates for each country were set in consideration of differences in tariff rates for U.S. products and non-tariff trade barriers such as exchange rate manipulation, unnecessary permits, and quarantine, but in reality, it is presumed that the U.S. trade deficit and the import amount of the other country served as important criteria. In addition, President Trump also declared that he would withdraw tax exemption benefits for small parcels originating from China and Hong Kong. Previously, in early February, it had already announced the abolition of duty-free benefits due to the importation of fentanyl into the United States, but it was overturned the next day due to confusion in field operations at the time. The policy of withdrawing duty-free benefits for small parcels originating from China and Hong Kong, which was finally announced, is scheduled to take effect from May 2. The targets are goods manufactured in China and Hong Kong and shipped to the United States under $800, and tariffs are applied at 120% based on the product value. A fee of $100 per transaction will be charged from May 2 to 31, and a fee of $200 per transaction will be charged from June 1. Transporters must hold a certain level of deposit to guarantee payment of taxes and fees. In addition, it is necessary to submit mail-related information and proof according to the method set by the U.S. Customs and Border Protection (CBP). Currently, the volume of small parcels eligible for duty-exemption in the U.S. is estimated to be approximately 4 million per day as of 2024. Annually, it is approximately 1.4 billion, of which 60% are estimated to originate from China. Therefore, the abolition of the small-value duty-free system for Chinese goods is expected to have a significant impact on American consumers. In addition to the United States, major countries such as Korea, Japan, and the EU are also considering abolishing the duty-free system for small-value goods. This is because low-priced Chinese goods have been flowing into their countries in large numbers under the small-value duty-free system, disrupting the market. Looking at the small-value duty-free system in major countries, the duty-free limit is $800 in the United States, $150 in Korea ($200 for list clearance from the United States), It is 10,000 yen in Japan and 150 euros in the EU, but it can be seen that the tax exemption limit in the United States is higher than in other countries. The small tax exemption limit in the United States was originally $200, but was relaxed to $800 as of 2016. Since then, as e-commerce has grown rapidly during the coronavirus pandemic, problems such as increased drug smuggling through small packages and deepening China's deficit have grown, which led to a movement to abolish the small tax exemption system even within the United States at the time. And eventually, the second Trump administration announced the abolition of the small-value parcel duty exemption system for products originating from China and Hong Kong. As the market is disturbed by the large influx of low-priced Chinese goods, the EU is also exempting tariffs on small-value goods but imposing value-added tax from July 2021. Starting in March 2028, tariffs will also be imposed on small-value items less than 150 euros, so the duty-free system for small-value items is expected to be eventually abolished. In Korea, as the e-commerce market grew rapidly during the coronavirus pandemic, Chinese e-commerce companies such as Ali Express, Xuyin, and Temu also became active in entering Korea. However, while Chinese goods receive benefits such as exemption from customs duties and KC certification through the small-value duty exemption system, domestic businesses cannot apply small-value duty exemptions to goods for sale, so reverse discrimination became a problem as they had to pay customs duties and obtain relevant KC certification for all imported goods. As President Trump revoked duty-free benefits for small parcels from China and Hong Kong, Chinese e-commerce companies that were hit in the U.S. market are likely to target the Korean market even by dumping product prices. It got higher. And since Korea has a very low tariff rate compared to China, there is a risk that Chinese products will be imported in large quantities into the country for bypass export to the United States. Therefore, support measures are urgently needed to protect the domestic manufacturing industry, which is inevitably losing out in price competition with Chinese products. In addition, it seems necessary to revise the system appropriately so that the original purpose of the tax exemption system for small items, which is to improve the convenience of people's lives, can be revived.

A real estate agent accused of defrauding a trust company and collecting fees was found not guilty. On the 6th of last month, the Changwon District Court found Mr. A, in his 50s, not guilty. Mr. A prepared a false service contract document in 2015 and submitted it to the trust company to sell it. He was accused of collecting about 160 million won in agency fees. The prosecution believed that Mr. A used his business status to collect fees from the trust company by pretending that he had recruited union members. In addition, it was judged that a higher amount than the introduction fee (MGM fee) actually paid was recorded in the submitted documents. Accordingly, Mr. A claimed that he only listened to the request of the head of a local housing association to lend the name to smooth payment of brokerage fees, and had no intention of defrauding the profit. He also emphasized that the fee charged to the trust company was the amount actually paid and was not a false statement. The court found Mr. A not guilty. The court said, “There is no basis for prohibiting the defendant from receiving a fee for union members recruited by a third party, such as no restrictions on the method of recruiting union members in the concluded service contract,” and added, “It is permissible to recruit union members or adopters through a third party, etc. and receive a fee.” He continued, “The trust company paid the fee after confirming evidential materials such as the number of units to be sold and the sales agency fee for each household,” adding, “There is a difference between the defendant’s actions and the trust company’s disposition.” “It is difficult to say that there is a causal relationship,” he added. Attorney Jong-Hoon Han of Daeryun Law Firm, who represented Mr. A, explained, “Most of the fees charged to the trust company were actually compensation for brokerage, and there was no gain for Mr. A as a result.” He added, “It appears that the court found him not guilty because there was no intention to engage in criminal activity.” Reporter Shin Jae-yu (wayjay@sportsseoul.com)[View full article] A real estate agent who deceived a trust company and took 100 million won in commissions...

(Shortcut) 2026-05-12T11:08:06.186Z https://www.daeryunlaw.com/en/broadcast/5036 The legal procedures for citizens to protect their rights are becoming increasingly complex. We live in an era where it is difficult to seek relief for rights without the assistance of legal experts, not only in criminal cases but also in relatively small-scale private disputes and administrative dispositions. In this situation, the ‘10% value-added tax’ levied on the cost of hiring a lawyer is a structural barrier that prevents the realization of citizens’ basic rights. The current value-added tax law taxes almost all lawyer services except public defenders, legal aid, and public tax representation. This is because, unlike education and medical services, legal services are treated as ‘general services’. However, legal services are not the exclusive domain of companies or institutions. For the majority of the general public, especially the economically vulnerable, this tax is a burden that is not light. Based on awareness of this problem, in September of last year, Rep. Kim Sang-wook proposed a bill to partially amend the Value-Added Tax Act. The amendment mainly contains content that includes tax exemption for the services of lawyers in small claims cases, criminal litigation procedures, administrative trials, and administrative litigation under the Small Claims Trial Act, and in cases where the parties involved are economically disadvantaged. In other words, it can be said to be a limited but symbolic attempt at legislation in terms of protecting fundamental constitutional rights such as the right to seek trial and the right to assistance from a lawyer. However, this amendment is close to ‘partial first aid’ for structural problems. This is because citizens' basic rights are not limited to certain types of cases. Even general civil or family litigation can be a matter directly related to survival for the parties involved. However, if value-added tax is still imposed when hiring a lawyer in these cases, the economically vulnerable class will eventually have no choice but to give up legal action due to the financial burden. Kim Jeong-wook, president of the Korean Bar Association, explicitly pledged to realize ‘lawyer compensation value-added tax exemption’ during his election as president of the association. However, in order for the pledge to be realized, it needs to go beyond mere mention, and concrete momentum and legislative follow-up measures are needed. Now is the time for more structural and responsible practice at the association level. If legal services are recognized as public goods, a more comprehensive and sophisticated system design must be followed, such as a gradual expansion of tax exemption, a tax refund system, and comprehensive tax exemption for basic livelihood recipients, apart from limited tax exemption measures. Therefore, the Bar Association has a responsibility to go beyond simply ‘welcoming’ legislation and take the lead in the entire process, from passing the bill, specifying the system, and coordinating practical work with relevant ministries. Daeryun Law Firm will also contribute substantially to this change. We will first identify the types of cases that are in the blind spot of the value-added tax and lay the foundation for legislative and policy discussions by conducting a national survey and accumulating statistical data. We will accurately understand the reality faced at the forefront of practice and lead to system improvement. Through this, Daeryun will expand the way for citizens to more easily access legal services. ‘Taxes’ should no longer be an obstacle to realizing citizens’ rights. Now is the time to completely reexamine the value-added tax system from the perspective of the public nature of legal services and the guarantee of basic rights.[View full article] [Contribution] Lawyers’ value-added tax blocking people’s basic rights requires follow-up measures (link) 2026-05-12T11:54:24.532Z https://www.daeryunlaw.com/en/broadcast/5035 A woman in her 50s who was accused of child abuse for insulting her parents in front of her children was not indicted. According to the legal community on the 22nd, the Suwon District Prosecutors' Office cleared A, a woman in her 50s, who was recently sent on charges of violating the Child Welfare Act (child abuse). She was accused of making insulting remarks in front of B, a neighbor, and her children in 2022. Mr. B claimed that Mr. A abused his child 13 times by screaming or intentionally blocking the road. On the other hand, Mr. A completely denied the charges, saying that although it is true that there was a conflict with Mr. B, he did not harm the child. The prosecution decided that Mr. A's charges were not recognized. It is true that Mr. B's children saw the two people arguing, but this does not constitute child abuse. It was determined that there was not enough evidence to support the claim that Mr. A yelled at Mr. B's child or blocked the road. Attorney Daeryun of Songwon Law Firm, who is Mr. A's legal representative, said, "Relevant materials such as the recording file submitted by Mr. B contained a situation in which the two people were fighting, but there was no circumstances of abuse at all. Person A also submitted materials that could refute Mr. B's claim, but the investigative agency judged the reliability of this material to be higher and acquitted him. “I can see it,” he said.

YouTube premium service provided at a low price A group of victims sue over account suspension while using it... Police say, "It's not fraud." A man in his 30s who was suspected of selling YouTube premium tickets using an overseas VPN and then disappearing when his account was suspended was cleared of charges by the police. On the 21st, Yeongdeungpo Police Station in Seoul decided not to send A, a man in his 30s, who was accused of fraud last February. Starting in May, he recruited users and received subscription fees by offering YouTube premium accounts at a discounted price for about a year and a half. The profit that Mr. A earned through this method is known to have reached 100 million won. However, the users' accounts were later suspended, and victims who had not been in contact with Mr. A filed complaints and an investigation began. Mr. A completely denied his charges. Mr. A said, "Google's foreign IP blocking standards were strengthened, so I was inevitably suspended." He claimed, “I never went into hiding on purpose.” The police concluded that Mr. A’s actions did not violate product trading procedures and concluded that there were no charges. The police explained, “Considering that Mr. A used a domestic account in his name for over two years, it is difficult to say that he committed the crime for the purpose of defrauding.” After the account was suspended, Mr. A posted a refund application on his blog and refunded the difference, and the fact that the victims later expressed their intention to withdraw the complaint. This was taken into consideration. Attorney Lee Kwang-soo of the Daeryun Law Firm, who represented Mr. A, explained, "The issue of fraud is whether there was awareness of the deceptive act and whether there was an error in judgment. Since Mr. A acted voluntarily after his account was suspended, the crime of fraud was not established."

The Labor Relations Commission ruled that the termination of the contract was agreed upon between both parties and that these daily workers cannot be the party requesting relief. In February, the Gyeongnam Regional Labor Relations Commission decided to dismiss the case of unfair dismissal relief filed against the company by worker B, who worked as a freelancer at ship processing company A, and others. Person B and others had signed an oral contract with the company and worked since last year. However, soon after, they demanded a salary increase and announced their intention to resign if the company did not accept it. Ultimately, Company A notified them via text message that their employment relationship had ended. Mr. B and others objected to this, claiming that there was a problem with the method of notification of dismissal, and filed an application for relief from unfair dismissal to the Labor Relations Commission. The company argued that the contract had been legally terminated. Company A's legal representative said, "The workers threatened not to proceed with work unless they changed their wages, etc. to favorable conditions. The company had no choice but to agree to this and treat it as termination of the employment relationship. In particular, they paid 3.3% business income tax, not earned income tax, and did not subscribe to the four major insurances. In other words, they signed a service contract on an equal footing with the employer." Gyeongnam Ginowi also sided with company A and applied for relief. dismissed. Ginowi explained, “The legal nature of the contract concluded between the worker and the employer cannot be considered a normal labor contract relationship.” He added, “When looking at the call records, etc., the worker also recognized the relationship between the parties as an equal relationship, not a dependent relationship, and appears to have resigned voluntarily. Therefore, he is not eligible to apply for unfair dismissal relief.” Attorney Song Jae-baek of Daeryun Law Firm, which represented Company A, said, “The applicants lack manpower within the company. He took advantage of the situation to demand an unreasonable salary increase, and used this as an excuse to cause discord within the team.” He pointed out, “The reason this is possible in the first place is because it is not a dependent relationship.” He also said, “There was no additional agreement such as a ban on concurrent employment, so the applicants were free to participate in other construction projects and perform parallel work on days when they were not working.” “All were dismissed,” he said.[View full article] Application for unfair dismissal relief upon termination of daily worker contract...

The way it was operated was unique.. Baker & McKinsey, the world's largest law firm(Baker & McKenzie)Modeling the system, branch offices were established throughout the country to maximize accessibility to legal services.. Unlike the past, when people had to go to Seoul to find a good law firm, Daeryun chose to approach customers directly.. Daeryun is currently nationwide 44has several offices.‘consulting lawyer’ The system is also evaluated as an example of boldly breaking the existing framework.. Daeryun is literally ‘counsel’A lawyer was assigned to the scene to proceed.. This is consulted by an individual lawyer.→written→This is completely different from the typical law firm practice of taking charge of everything, including trials.. A clear diagnosis of the incident can only be made if a proper consultation is conducted first., Daeryun explains that it becomes possible to provide more systematic legal services..Daeryun has grown rapidly through this operating method.. last year 1127Recording sales of billions of won 9Name listed on the above law firm. Kim Kuk-il, CEO of Daeryun Management, “Daeryun’s goal is the global market”He said “Daeryun’s unique system, which has been developed over a long period of time, will now be widely known overseas.”I was confident that. ―What motivated you to operate branch offices all over the country??“The existing legal market was very opaque.. This was especially true from the perspective of ordinary clients.. It was difficult to obtain specific information about lawyers or law firms, so it took a long time to find a lawyer to take on the case, or sometimes it was through a so-called broker.. The psychological barrier gradually increased., Customer trust in the entire legal market was bound to decline.. Daeryun sought to overcome this reality.. First of all, I thought the physical distance should be close.. In fact, large American law firms have at least dozens of branch offices throughout the United States and around the world.. By benchmarking the advanced systems of these law firms, we are implementing them nationwide, focusing on one main office. 43Established several branch offices. The key is that the main office manages all branch offices nationwide.. When a customer receives a consultation at a nearby office,, Attorneys across the country with the most expertise in the field are in charge of the case., We can provide the same level of legal services anywhere in the country..”―Please explain the specific reason for having a consulting attorney..“The most important step in the litigation process is ‘counsel’am. This is because the essence of the problem can be accurately identified at this stage.. If the characteristics of the incident are not clearly analyzed at the beginning,, Difficult to assign appropriate professional lawyers. Therefore, a lawyer with more experience than anyone else must be involved in the counseling process.. This is why we have a separate consulting attorney.. Large general hospitals have emergency medicine and pathology doctors to provide initial emergency treatment and accurate disease diagnosis.. You can think of it as the same method.. Recognized for long-term skills, This is a method in which consulting attorneys selected through fierce internal competition accurately understand the characteristics of each case and then assign specialized attorneys to suit them.. When necessary, experts from various fields such as accountants, labor attorneys, tax accountants, and patent attorneys were brought in to view the case from various perspectives.. This is similar to the advanced law firm system in the United States.. In the United States, a system is usually operated where a partner lawyer takes on a case, consults with the customer, and then assigns the case to an appropriate team.. The same goes for Daeryun.. The consulting attorney takes on the role of a partner attorney.. It can be seen as a similar method in that it promotes efficient and professional case handling by tightly establishing a distribution system according to the type of case.. Added to this, Daeryun's unique characteristic is that lawyers with backgrounds as judges and prosecutors directly conduct investigations and appear in court, forming bonds with their clients., It can be pointed out that there are many cases where the person is directly involved in the progress of the case.." ―What do you pay most attention to when operating such a system?.“As mentioned before, in the end, the most important subject is ‘customer’am. No matter how good the accessibility is or how well the consultation is done,, If the customer is not ultimately satisfied, it is a failed system.. In the case of Daeryun, offices are distributed throughout the country., Some may voice concerns about management. Daeryun has also been working hard for a long time to perfectly complement these points., The result is ‘Litigation Management Headquarters’and ‘Customer Satisfaction Center’all. ‘Litigation Management Headquarters’is a group that directs and supervises the overall litigation administration.. From the moment the case is accepted until it is completed,(全) Manage the process systematically. △Civil affairs and administration △detective △A management department was formed by dividing into areas such as housekeeping.. Chief attorney for each management department 1people are deployed, In addition, senior-level lawyers, legal officers, and legal clerks perform work together.. We are making efforts to prevent issues such as poor arguments and missed communication that may arise during the case handling process.. ‘Customer Satisfaction Center’is about 1year 6It started operating six months ago.. It was the first among large law firms.. All feedback left by customers is shared with all office members.. We try to provide immediate solutions to inquiries.. Communicating customers’ thoughts at any moment, It is a method of jointly seeking development plans for Daeryun.. In fact, a client who recently entrusted a case to Daeryun 3800We conducted a survey targeting people., 98% more than one customer ‘content’expressed. This is the result of the customer management team responding quickly in case of any inconvenience.."―What does Daeryun’s future law firm model look like??“Daeryun has now gone beyond Korea. ‘global standard’We want to leap forward as a law firm that meets the. Daeryun’s unique system, well designed domestically, is being introduced to the overseas market.. To this end, we are preparing to establish branch offices in various overseas locations, including New York, USA and Tokyo, Japan.. We have established cooperative relationships with leading overseas law firms and institutions.. Korini, an American real estate comprehensive solution platform(Koriny), Memorandum of understanding with Verivest, a large Japanese law firm, etc.(MOU)A representative example is the signing of. Based on this, we are increasing customer accessibility and convenience by establishing offices in major cities around the world.. In addition, we are steadily recruiting experts such as foreign lawyers and customs experts to strengthen our overseas legal service capabilities..”―Is there any last thing you would like to say??“The number of domestic lawyers is increasing., The legal market still appears to be not growing.. If the market does not grow, the development of the legal profession in Korea will inevitably slow down.. In order for the legal market to change and move forward, there is a need to break away from existing practices and customs.. Daeryun has been innovating and changing for a long time.. This was the case with the operation of branch offices and the introduction of a consulting attorney system.. Furthermore, Daeryun ‘legal tech(Legal Tech·legal information technology)’ There is also great interest in the field. Self-developed artificial intelligence(AI) based legal service provider ‘AI Daeryun’was released and, A comprehensive legal platform is also planned to be launched soon..

However, when you actually want to claim alimony, you may often feel at a loss because you do not have accurate information about what claim to make or how much money you can receive. Alimony is a request for compensation for property and mental damages from the spouse responsible for the breakdown of the marriage under civil law. Therefore, in order for a claim for alimony to be accepted, the other party must be responsible and it must be clearly proven that this led to the breakdown of the marriage. This means that beyond simple personality differences or conflicts, wrongdoings such as verbal abuse, assault, or habitual infidelity must be proven. When determining the amount of alimony, the court comprehensively considers the duration of the marriage, the degree of responsibility of the other party, the presence of children, and the childcare situation. Even in the same affair case, the amount of alimony you can receive may vary depending on whether the marriage lasted 1 year or 20 years and whether there are 1 or 3 children. Generally, alimony is set at an average of 10 to 30 million won, but if the other party's fault is severe, a higher amount may be requested. The most necessary thing to receive alimony is ‘objective evidence.’ This is because it is necessary to objectively and clearly prove that the other party is at fault. For example, if the spouse's affair was the problem, messages, phone records, and lodging records that the spouse exchanged with the person with whom the adultery was committed must be secured. If there was an assault or verbal abuse, relevant medical certificates, transcripts, and police report details are required. If the cause is financial irresponsibility or neglect of life, it is advantageous to have bank transaction details or spending records. Attorney Seoyoung Hwang of Daeryun Law Firm in Gangneung said, "However, it is realistically difficult for an individual to completely collect such evidence on his own. In particular, in the case of infidelity, most cases are carried out secretly, so there are limits to the ability of the general public to secure data that meets legal requirements." He also added, "Also, during the evidence collection process, you may unintentionally commit crimes such as illegal filming or invasion of privacy, and in this case, you may be at risk of punishment. In such cases, you may even end up in a situation where you cannot submit the evidence you collected with difficulty as evidence in a lawsuit. Therefore, it is best to collect evidence in a legal manner and prepare a lawsuit based on strategic preparation through the assistance of an expert such as a divorce lawyer.”[View full article] A lawyer explains the importance of claiming divorce alimony and collecting evidence (link) 2026-05-13T16:20:36.459Z https://www.daeryunlaw.com/en/broadcast/5025 law firm 'Daeryun' Attorney Lee Il-hyung "Digital Medical Products Act,Legislative evaluation that well reflects the trends of the times""We cannot neglect the development of digital medical products...A country that has fallen behind in the trend of the times-loss of corporate competitiveness' last year 1month, world's first ‘Digital Medical Products Act’This year after it was enacted 1It will be implemented from March, There is a lot of interest in the industry.

Background and significance of enactment (link) 2026-05-04T11:23:10.967Z https://www.daeryunlaw.com/en/broadcast/5024 According to Statistics Korea's regional employment survey 'Employment status of married women' in the first half of 2024, the number of married women aged 15 to 54 is 7,654,000, of which 5,053,000 are employed and 2,601,000 are unemployed. Among the unemployed women, 1,215,000 are women with career breaks, and women with career breaks have quit their jobs. The reasons for leaving were childcare (41.1%), marriage (24.9%), pregnancy/childbirth (24.4%), family care (4.8%), and children's education (4.7%). The proportion of women who took a career break was higher as the number of children increased: 3 or more (27.7%), 2 (23.7%), and 1 (21.1%), and the younger the children were (33.5%), 7-12 (19.9%), and 13-17 (11.4%). It can be said that the reason why career-interrupted women quit their jobs is rarely due to their own problems. Statistics show that childcare, marriage, pregnancy and childbirth, family care, and children's education are all intended to fulfill women's roles at home. Women's career interruption due to childbirth and childcare is not an old problem in our society, and it is true that policies and systems to support work-family balance, such as childcare time and childcare leave for raising children, are also very advanced compared to the past. While I was serving as an army officer, I got married and became pregnant. When I became pregnant with my first child, there was no system that allowed me to adjust my working hours based on childcare time like there is now, and I worked as much as my physical strength allowed, but it was a time when I had no choice but to go on maternity leave or take childcare leave as an apology to other executives who had to do my work. After giving birth, I came to the conclusion that I could no longer live as an officer, moving from region to region every 1-2 years without an auxiliary caregiver like my mother, and it was only then that I realized that my life could change completely due to the birth of a child. Regardless of the change in my life, the child was so pretty that it didn't hurt to look at it, and I wanted to spend a lot of time with her and stay there. I also thought that if I couldn't see my child growing up because of my work, I would be happy even if I quit my job. After that, I was given another opportunity, and I have been able to work without interruption to this day, half on my own and half on someone else's, but the pain of having to leave home without a crying child and the regret of not being able to spend the weekend with me due to work still remain intact in my heart. Currently, various economic support systems are being implemented to solve the low birth rate problem, but there is much criticism that they are not effective in terms of performance or effectiveness. The author believes that the serious problem of low birth rates needs to be approached from the perspective of women, who are responsible for actually giving birth and raising children, from the perspective of changing awareness within the family, establishing a system that supports work and family, and creating a social atmosphere. First, from a woman's perspective, becoming a mother is a very scary task that brings about significant changes in her life, so active support from her spouse and division of childcare is essential. Without improved awareness at home, women will also be unable to easily choose childbirth and childcare. Economic support is important, but a system that allows flexible time management is especially important. In reality, when raising a child, excluding travel time to and from work and fixed work hours, the time you can see your child on weekdays is only 1 to 2 hours. When I was raising my first child, I also received a lot of help in raising my children, including the introduction of a parenting time system that did not exist when I was raising my first child. Although children look forward to it, school and kindergarten vacations are something that my spouse and I are very afraid of. At this time, my husband and I, my in-laws' parents, and my friend's parents all had to be mobilized, but unlike in the past, my spouse was able to use family care leave, etc., and it was a great help to be able to coordinate some of the time. Lastly, it appears that society should continue to create an atmosphere that welcomes and supports child-rearing. Our society has continuously pursued efficiency in all fields for rapid development. What I have felt while raising children is that raising children is far from efficient. Young children cannot put on their own clothes, and when they eat, they spill food here and there, making it very messy, and parents have to wait for them to turn over, crawl, or walk. However, children must go through various trials and errors to form their own identity and grow into autonomous adults. From this perspective, society should view and support women and children raising children with a warm and generous perspective, and should not be stingy in pursuit of efficiency. “It takes a village to raise a child.”[View full article] [Monday Column] Low birth rate problem from the perspective of a working mother (link) 2026-05-05T18:53:08.778Z https://www.daeryunlaw.com/en/broadcast/5023 Lawyers, computers, public relations... Among the 12 major law firms that employ people with disabilities in a ‘condescending’ manner, five, including Yulchon Law Firm, Jipyeong, Daeryun, Yoon & Yang, and Shin Sejong, were found to be hiring people with disabilities while meeting the statutory mandatory employment rate (3.1%). As a result of the Legal Newspaper surveying the employment status of the disabled at 12 major domestic law firms in celebration of the Day of the Disabled on April 20, Yulchon had the highest employment rate of the disabled at 4.44%. Yulchon employs 24 disabled people out of 1,035 full-time workers, of which 22 are severely disabled. Jipyeong’s employment rate for disabled people was 3.56%. Jipyong employs 9 disabled people out of 478 full-time workers, 8 of whom are severely disabled. Daeryun employed 15 out of 651 full-time workers, recording an employment rate of 3.38%, including people with severe disabilities. Sejong has 19 disabled people out of a total of 1,120 full-time workers. Among them are two lawyers. There were 16 people with severe disabilities, and the employment rate was 3.13%. It was confirmed that Yoon & Yang met legal standards by hiring 19 out of approximately 600 workers, including those with severe disabilities. When calculating the employment rate of the disabled, severely disabled people are counted twice. This is because severely disabled people need more support for education and work adaptation. (omitted) Daeryun Law Firm deploys people with disabilities in all areas of the practice, including the head of the counseling office, the head of the legal office, and secretaries in charge of external work. Shin & Kim Law Firm hires a ‘Health Keeper’ for the disabled to provide massage services to executives and employees, and it is known that employee satisfaction is high. In addition, disabled workers are employed in various occupations, including bathroom cleaning and document messaging. There are also cases of indirect contribution through legal support and improved working conditions. Plaza Law Firm provides free legal services to ‘Seongmin Social Welfare Corporation’, which carries out support projects for the disabled. In this way, employment of the disabled in the law firm industry is improving quantitatively and qualitatively, but there is still an atmosphere of reluctance to hire people based on economic logic. An official from a major law firm said, “We are paying an employment levy because we are below the mandatory employment rate,” and added, “In terms of efficiency, it is better to pay a levy.” According to the Korea Employment Agency for the Disabled, if the mandatory employment rate for the disabled is not met, an employment fee must be paid, and the fee ranges from a minimum of KRW 1,258,000 to a maximum of KRW 2,096,270 per person per month. Some law firms have been hiring people according to their quota, but it has been reported that in some cases, the employment rate has fallen below the standard as the number of mandatory employees has recently increased.

The soldier was sent to trial based on a witness's statement that he had insulted his superior, but the court ruled that the witness's statement was not credible because it was overturned and contradicted. According to the legal community on the 17th, the Suwon District Court recently acquitted Mr. A, in his 20s, who was indicted on charges of insulting his superior. In October 2023, while serving as a Marine Corps soldier, Mr. A had a conversation with two junior soldiers in a smoking room on the unit and said, "I want to drink with Mr. B and have (sexual relations)." was indicted on charges Mr. B was a female sergeant who was Mr. A's superior. During the inspection investigation within the unit, Mr. A claimed, "Because it was a period of guerrilla training at the time, I was not on the unit and could not go to the smoking area, and I did not make any sexual remarks in relation to Mr. B." However, Mr. A's claim was not accepted, and the charges were acknowledged based on the statements of witnesses and he was sent to trial. Even at the trial, Mr. A consistently maintained his claim, saying, "I was not in the unit because of guerrilla training, and I had a good relationship with Sergeant B, so there was no reason to insult him." Mr. A’s lawyer argued that “if you look at the circumstances of the report, the witnesses who did not have a good feeling towards Mr. A falsely reported that he had insulted his superior.” The court ruled in Mr. A’s favor. Although Mr. A's claims were consistent, the witnesses overturned their statements about when the incident occurred, and their statements regarding the circumstances of the report were also inconsistent. Based on this, the witness's statement was deemed unreliable and difficult to believe, and he was declared not guilty. Mr. A's legal representative, Park Yong-heul, a lawyer at the Daeryun Law Firm, said, "Some of the witnesses did not have a good relationship with Mr. A, so they decided to report him in order to have him transferred to another unit. In this case, the only evidence to prove the indictment was the witness's statement, and we were able to get an acquittal by proving that the statement was not credible."

It is even called the 'blue ocean' of law firms. In some cases, existing industrial accident teams have been expanded, but in many cases, new centers or headquarters have been established. These dedicated organizations mainly consist of attorneys from the courts, prosecutors, police, and the Ministry of Employment and Labor. Kim & Chang Law Firm operates a serious disaster response group led by the EHS (Environment, Health & Safety) team with about 150 members including the labor detective team, construction team, and human resources and labor team. Regarding the recognition of the Chief Safety Officer (CSO) as the manager of management, which is one of the most hotly contested issues in the interpretation of the Central Criminal Justice Act, there is a case where a CSO, rather than the CEO, was recognized as the manager of management for the first time. Plaza, which operates an industrial safety and serious accident team composed of about 60 experts in the criminal, labor, environment, and construction fields, provides one-stop services from consultation to investigation response and criminal trials, and is representing the Korea Federation of Small and Medium Business in constitutional appeal cases. Pacific The Major Disaster Response Headquarters is the first to introduce and operate the 'Comprehensive Situation Room' system, which operates 24 hours a day, 365 days a year. It is subdivided into a field response team composed of about 50 criminal and human resources experts, an investigation response team composed of prosecutors and police officers, and a defense response team composed of court officials. Yulchon, which established the Serious Accident Center in 2021 before the enforcement of the law, obtained the first not guilty verdict regarding the fulfillment of obligations under the Central Criminal Justice Act. It has extensive investigative response and advisory experience in 140 cases, and attorney Kim Kyung-soo, former head of the Supreme Prosecutors' Office's Central Investigation Department, is serving as the head of the general center. In addition to the Serious Disaster Response Center, which consists of about 70 experts in industrial safety, construction, environment, and chemicals, Sejong has formed a 'Severe Disaster Emergency Response Team' with lawyers with experience in the Ministry of Employment and Labor, prosecutors, and police to respond 24 hours a day. We are operating a TF to respond to the Severe Accident Punishment Act, which is comprised of a collaborative system of corporate advisory groups. In the CJ Korea Express case and the Korea Railroad Corporation case, he was acquitted by the prosecution, and in the Nonghyup Networks case, he was confirmed not guilty. In October 2022, when it was in charge of the Doosung Industrial case, the first prosecution case under the Serious Disaster Punishment Act, it applied for a request for unconstitutionality review to the Constitutional Court. In order to respond to the expanded application of the law to workplaces with less than 50 employees, YK expanded its organization in February last year from a single center head system with attorney Jo In-seon to a five-member joint center head system, including representative attorneys Kyu-young Gyu and Kim Do-hyung, former deputy chief prosecutors, and representative attorneys Sang-jin Han and Jin-ho Lee, former deputy chief prosecutors. It is operating. In particular, it is actively utilizing its network of 32 directly managed branch offices across the country to quickly respond to incidents occurring outside of Seoul. In June 2022, Jipyong is expanding and reorganizing the existing industrial safety and serious disaster team into a serious disaster response center with the recruitment of attorney Park Jeong-sik, a former high prosecutor's office with extensive experience in industrial safety investigations, and attorney Yoon Sang-ho, a former chief prosecutor of the Public Security Service. In February of this year, the corporation and its CEO were found not guilty in a serious accident that occurred during the elevator installation work of a shipyard tower crane. Daeryun's Industrial Safety Major Accident Group includes former Chief Judge Shin Min-soo, who had experience in the labor and violent crime department while serving as a judge, former Seoul Central District Prosecutors' Office Cho Young-gon, who had experience advising on the CJ Logistics serious accident case, and former Chief Prosecutor Yoon Seok-ju, who had experience specializing in construction and safety accidents. It is active. In February 2022, Barun expanded and reorganized the existing Serious Accident Punishment Act Response Special Team into the Serious Disaster Response Center. The group includes former Chief Prosecutor Lee Sang-jin, former Deputy Chief Prosecutor Park Seong-geun, Park Seong-ho, a former chief criminal judge at the Ulsan District Court, where the first court in the country established a special tribunal for industrial (safety) disaster cases, and Park Hyun-joong, a former police officer who served as the first serious accident specialist at the National Investigation Headquarters. A constitutional complaint was filed with the Constitutional Court in October of last year, and is currently being heard by the full court. Representative lawyer Gyu-cheol Lee is the head of the Daeryuk Aju Serious Disaster Response Group. In addition to former prosecutors, including former Deputy Chief Prosecutor Cha Dong-eon, who served as an advisory member of the Seoul Safety Advisory Council of the Seoul Metropolitan Government, and former High Prosecutors' Office Chief Oh In-seo, who served as the head of the Supreme Prosecutor's Office's Public Security Department, about 50 people, including lawyer Cho Yong-gi, who was a judge, are active. They defended the mayor of Seongnam, who was booked on charges of violating the Serious Accident Punishment Act (civilian casualty causing death) in the Seongnam City Jeongja Bridge collapse accident, and received a non-indictment. These law firms are paying close attention to the Constitutional Court's decision on this unconstitutionality trial case. As the investigation and response to trials of the cases we are currently representing may change significantly depending on the Constitutional Court's judgment of unconstitutionality, we are monitoring the Constitutional Court's judgment and reviewing other provisions of the Central Wife Act that were not subject to judgment this time.

According to the legal community on the 17th, the Seoul Central District Prosecutors' Office decided not to indict Mr. A, who was suspected of violating the Road Traffic Act (after-accident measures) in February. Previously, Mr. A was accused of hitting the left rear of Mr. B's motorcycle while riding a motorcycle on the road in December of last year and leaving the scene without taking any action. Mr. A denied all charges. Mr. A said, “There was an argument while driving, but I was concerned that it would escalate into a big fight, so I immediately left the scene,” and claimed, “It was raining at the time, and Mr. B, who was driving in a threatening manner, fell alone.” The prosecution also decided not to file charges. The prosecution said, “The traffic accident in this case was a minor contact accident, so there were no casualties, and no flying debris was created when the suspect hit the victim’s motorcycle. “We took into account the difficulty of finding evidence that could have obstructed the flow of traffic or created a danger,” said Kim Yu-jin, a lawyer at Daeryun Law Firm, who is Mr. A’s legal representative. “This case was an argument that broke out while driving, and the accident occurred when the other person, who was threatening to drive, fell alone,” and explained, “Therefore, Mr. A had no intention of causing the accident at all.” He added, “There were no casualties, and after the accident, Mr. B received full damages from Mr. A’s insurance company. He added, "Mr. A, who makes his living in the delivery business, was in danger of having his license revoked if the charges were confirmed, but he was able to maintain his license thanks to the fact that he was not indicted after taking into account several normal relationships."

On February 26, the Cheonan Branch of the Daejeon District Prosecutors' Office decided not to indict a teenager, Group A, who was accused of insulting and assaulting him. In 2023, Student A was accused of using a personal insult and hitting his classmate B in front of many other students. Student A denied the charges. Student B was behaving disruptively during class, and in an attempt to stop him, he made a rather strong remark. At the same time, he also emphasized that there was no fact that he hit the buttocks. The police found that Mr. A was not guilty. The police said, "Due to this incident, the victim had a period of suspension from school, and there was no mention of the crime in the counseling that took place during this period." He added, "When looking at the statements of the homeroom teacher and the students' petitions, there is not enough evidence to prove the charges based solely on the suspect's claims." Group B objected and filed an objection, and the case was sent to the prosecution. However, the prosecution also decided not to indict. The prosecution explained, "Criminal punishment requires solid proof, but the teacher who was in class at the time of the crime stated that he did not hear the remarks," and "There is no objective evidence, as classmates at the scene did not directly witness the crime." Lawyer So-young Kwak of Daeryun Law Firm, a law firm representing A in this case, said, "The school violence review committee decided to take measures such as volunteering for A, but this decision was made at the level of guidance," and "Acknowledgment of the crime is reasonable in criminal procedures." “Proof beyond doubt is needed, but this could not be proven with only B’s testimony,” he said.

Prosecutors decline to indict because there are no eyewitnesses (link) 2026-05-13T07:41:09.197Z https://www.daeryunlaw.com/en/broadcast/5004 In 1881, King Gojong of the Joseon Dynasty dispatched a shrine tour group consisting of 60 people, including 12 inspectors, to Japan to inspect the new civil affairs system. Joseon sought to transform into an independent modern nation through the Gabo Reform in 1894 and the declaration of the Korean Empire in 1897, but it was unable to develop self-reliance and depended on powerful countries, and was annexed by Japan. With Law Day approaching in 2025, I feel a sense of déjà vu as to whether our lawyers living in the modern era are in a similar situation to the Joseon scholars of the late Joseon Dynasty. In the days when liberal arts and science majors were separated, it was taken for granted that liberal arts students who were good at studying would take the bar exam or enter law school and become lawyers, and this continues to this day. Just as Joseon's scholars took the civil service exam and passed the civil service examination as an opportunity to improve their careers even in the late Joseon Dynasty, some of Joseon's scholars opened their eyes to the rapidly changing international situation by participating in Susin Temple or Shinto Shrine Tours and tried to promote reform in Joseon. However, due to opposition from conservative forces with vested interests and a focus on reforms centered on the upper class that depended on foreign powers, they were unable to reach consensus across society and ended up failing after being dragged around by foreign powers. There is something that our law firms living today should keep in mind. Rather than refusing to open in response to the domestic legal market demand, which is expected to intensify after President Trump takes office, considering only the immediate decline in revenue, the plan is to actively accept the organization, customer management, and operation systems of Anglo-American law firms and improve the structure to a ‘global standard operating method.’ Based on this, it is time to expand overseas and compete fiercely with global law firms both at home and abroad. However, just as the conservative forces in the late Joseon Dynasty stuck to the existing method, only obsessed with vested interests and did not accept changes in the international situation, if our law firms are satisfied with guaranteed a certain amount of income as a professional group in Korea and insist on the existing operating methods such as separate branch system and separate operation between headquarters and branches in the domestic legal market, let alone entering overseas, won't they become subordinate to global law firms along with the opening? It is worrisome. As we have already experienced the verbal abuse of the conservative forces at the end of the Joseon Dynasty who were oppressing reformists, if regulations and suppression continue instead of encouragement and support to internal reform forces such as legal tech companies newly emerging in the legal market and advanced law firms that provide information using platforms such as AI and big data, will the situation at the end of the Joseon Dynasty be repeated again? Are our law firms prepared or preparing to avoid falling behind in the competition with global law firms that will unfold with the opening of the legal market? Are we? Since its establishment in 2018, Daeryun has consistently maintained the global one-firm system of ‘regional decentralization and integrated operation’ by benchmarking global law firms in the English and American regions. Through this, we were able to manage the service quality of our offices across the country in an integrated manner, and we are continuing to make continuous improvements by installing a customer management center to quickly respond to customer requests and conducting regular customer surveys. In addition, we have expanded expert video consultations and dispatch to maintain uniform service between headquarters and branches and to ensure that the expertise of headquarters can be immediately absorbed and applied to branches, and managers such as CEOs and division managers are visiting offices across the country every month to conduct on-site inspections. In addition, in order to prevent commonly raised customer complaints such as poor defense or lack of communication with customers, the Litigation Guidance Management Headquarters was established last March to improve the defense and communication skills of lawyers. As the above global one-firm system alone is at the level of English-speaking law firms, we strongly feel that AI legal tech and professional promotional marketing must be combined in order for Daeryun to be ahead of Anglo-American law firms, and we have developed our own solutions for customers. We have reached the point of opening AI and AI for lawyers. Furthermore, by sequentially developing its own platform, consultation system, and case management system, it has also introduced its own promotional marketing techniques that have reached a professional level, allowing it to confidently compete with global law firms anywhere in the world. In order to prevent the situation in Joseon, which was helpless against the invasion of foreign powers in the late Joseon Dynasty, from being repeated in the Korean legal market today, Daeryun has established a global law firm to prepare for the encroachment of the domestic legal market by Anglo-American law firms and to encourage domestic law firms to advance overseas. We plan to generously provide standard operating methods and know-how for overseas expansion to law firms that want it. Although Joseon's reform scholars were unable to achieve it, we hope that the Korean legal community will continue to see 'K-law firms' that improve the structure of the domestic legal market and pioneer overseas markets.[View full article] [Contribution] Will we follow in the footsteps of the Korean Empire?

Even people who usually don't change their profile pictures are joining the Ghibli profile picture wave.. As this phenomenon becomes a trend, other disagreements are also emerging.. Online, there are criticisms that Studio Ghibli's actions are infringing on copyright, and opposing views are being raised in support of this.. First, follow the drawing style of a specific animation studio. AI The opinion is that the results generated by the model cannot be recognized as creative works.. for image creation AI The issue is that if the model learned and used Ghibli's animation, it may constitute some copyright infringement.. Of course, there are opposing opinions as well.. AI It is argued that this is an era where anyone can freely create through models, and that the current animation image conversion is just part of the trend.. In addition, some experts argue that the drawing style or style itself is not subject to copyright protection.. Ghibli-style image conversion, If so, is it copyright infringement? AI Are there any legal issues with converting photos into Ghibli-esque images using models?. We sought advice from attorney Kim Tae-hwan of Daeryun Law Firm regarding whether the drawing is subject to copyright protection and whether using it as a profile photo is a violation of copyright.. First, as to whether the drawing is subject to copyright protection, ‘not so’It is said. Attorney Taehwan Kim “In principle, drawings are not subject to copyright protection.”saying “Copyright Act2article 1The subject of copyright law protection in ‘Creative expression of thoughts or feelings’Because it protects expression, ideas such as drawings, techniques, Style is not protected”It was said. AIWhat about using a model to convert an image into a specific animation drawing style and then using it?. About this "The copyright for the current work is 'human being'Only works that are created are recognized., AIThere is a lot of controversy about who should own the rights when creating an image through a model."He said. mudfish “In our country, it is still AI There are no concrete cases of disputes regarding copyright. AI If an image is created through a model, legal issues may be raised and judged in the future. AIThere can be clearer guidelines regarding copyright issues.”said. However, it is said that this will not be a problem as the current copyright law considers private use as not infringing on the copyright holder's rights.. However, he added that using it commercially could be problematic.. Attorney Kim “Since the Ghibli animation image itself falls within the scope of expression of the work, the extent to which the image was copied may be an issue.”mentioned. however “As in recent times, individuals or families, It is believed that creating a Ghibli-style photo of a friend will take a considerable amount of time before legal issues arise in the future.”added. In addition to AIIt is said that the model's data learning is closely related to copyright infringement.. he is “AILearning is based on temporarily storing and analyzing copyrighted works through web crawling, etc., This is an act of copying under copyright law.”explained. However, it was also pointed out that cultural development could be hindered if all acts of copying are regulated as an infringement of the copyright holder's rights.. For this reason, it is necessary to put a brake on the unlimited exercise of rights., One of them is fair use.(Fair Use)This is. Fair use is reasonable use under certain conditions without the permission of the copyright holder., It is a system that allows the use of copyrighted works for non-profit purposes.. Regarding the determination of fair use, Attorney Kim said: “AIIs the learning non-profit and has the purpose of promoting creativity?, Does it actually cause damage to the copyright holder's market?, Fair use is judged by comprehensively considering factors such as whether the scope of use is part or all of the total.”said. mudfish “AIThe extent to which the model learns Ghibli animation data is non-profit and, learn only part of it, If the copyright holder's market is not competitive, it may be recognized as fair use and not constitute copyright infringement; however, on the contrary,, Learning of Ghibli animation data is for commercial purposes., We used the key parts, If a competitive relationship in the market can cause substantial damage to the copyright holder, it will no longer be fair use and copyright infringement may be established.”He added,. Infringement of original author's rights… From an ethical perspective, the neighborhood life of Carrot Market, a used goods trading platform, last week was “indiscreet AIA post expressing frustration over the use of illustrations”A post titled was uploaded.. The author said, “Many aspiring writers work hard for years to have a cartoon-like drawing style suitable for comics and illustrations,” and “AI’s highly sophisticated drawings are the result of unauthorized learning from the hard work of countless artists.” Hayao Miyazaki, Japanese animation director and co-founder of Studio Ghibli, is also known to have negative views on working with AI. In the 2016 NHK documentary , there is a scene where Nobuo Kawakami of Dwango shows him a demo tape of a video produced using AI. Hayao Miyazaki said of the video at the time, “I can’t shake the feeling that it is an insult to life.” The demo tape contains specific grotesque movements generated through artificial intelligence. In response, Hayao Miyazaki pointed out that this cannot be said to be funny if one is thinking of a friend with a disability, and that the person who makes something like this has no idea what pain is. He also said that he would never introduce the technology into his work. An anecdote about Eiji Yamamori, one of the animators from Ghibli who worked with Hayao Miyazaki, also helps us understand some of the public's negative views on the use of AI models. He revealed that it took him 1 year and 3 months to complete each scene in the animation The Wind Rises (2013), which he drew entirely by hand. The scene lasts about 4 seconds and depicts people in a crowd making individual movements. Asking ChatGPT about AI ethics Recently, a controversy arose when a post about selling Ghibli-style images created through ChatGPT-4o image creation was posted on a used goods trading site. Accordingly, second-hand trading platforms are imposing sanctions on this. So, how does ChatGPT ethically view the act of AI creating images by imitating a specific animation drawing style? When I asked ChatGPT directly about this, the answer was, “I think there is definitely a possibility of copyright infringement.” He also added, “Imitating the unique art style of a specific animation studio goes beyond simple imitation of the style, and can be an act that infringes on the creator’s integrity and brand assets. In particular, if it is combined with commercial use, I believe it is no longer a gray area ethically and legally.” While various unexpected problems are being discussed, such as the creation of fake receipt images and the infringement of portrait rights due to the possibility of facial data collection, attention is being paid to how the use of new image creation AI will spread in the future and whether legal regulations can be established for this.[View full article] Draw it in the ‘Ghibli style’!...

This is why many businessmen visit law firms to review legal dispute elements and establish a preemptive prevention system to prevent problems in advance. In reality, business operations are regulated by numerous laws, resulting in constant disputes. Therefore, it can be said that it is essential for management to understand related laws, ranging from management risks (Fair Trade Act, Commercial Act, and Capital Markets Act) to labor risks (Labor Standards Act) and industrial site risks (Serious Accident Punishment Act). In particular, corporate legal risks can lead to not only financial losses but also serious issues such as a decline in brand image, business suspension, and criminal punishment for management personnel, so let's take a closer look at five legal risks that can occur throughout company operations. First, Let's look at labor law violations. There are many cases where small businesses are complacent about drafting employment contracts, and it is not uncommon for workers to be caught violating the drafting of employment contracts by failing to include other working conditions in addition to essential items such as wages. In addition, failure to prepare or issue a labor contract is a representative example of a labor law violation, and caution is required as a fine of up to 5 million won may be imposed under Article 114 of the Labor Standards Act. Furthermore, you should be aware that non-compliance with the minimum wage can result in imprisonment for up to 3 years or a fine of up to 20 million won, and violation of the minimum wage law, such as non-payment of overtime pay, can result in imprisonment for up to 3 years or a fine of up to 30 million won. The following are violations of the Personal Information Protection Act. While running a business, you encounter personal information in many situations. Problems usually arise when collecting personal information of customers and employees, and legal consent must be obtained when collecting and storing personal information. If personal information is processed without considering legal aspects, penalties such as fines may be imposed. If information leaks occur, civil and criminal liability may arise, and under the Personal Information Protection Act, you may be subject to imprisonment for up to 5 years or a fine of up to 50 million won. In addition, we should not overlook the fact that it may lead to a decline in corporate value and financial difficulties as a result. The third thing to keep in mind is trademark and copyright infringement. When using a business name or brand trademark, legal disputes may arise if it is used without confirmation of existing trademark rights. In addition, using images, videos, music, etc. without permission and selling products that infringe on other companies' designs or patent rights are also considered copyright infringements and are highly likely to be involved in a lawsuit. If you are caught copying, displaying, distributing, or renting property rights protected under the Copyright Act, you may be subject to up to 5 years in prison or a fine of up to 50 million won. In addition, special caution is required as a separate lawsuit for damages may be filed by the victim (company). Fourth, unfair trade practices are also an inevitable legal risk. Business operators have obligations under relevant laws such as the Subcontracting Act and the Fair Trade Act, and failure to comply with them may result in various legal sanctions. If you are running a franchise business, you cannot be free from problems such as signing contracts and commissions. This is because operating a franchise without signing a contract or collecting excessive fees is also a violation of the Franchise Business Act. If a franchise headquarters commits an act prohibited by law, such as providing false or exaggerated information about key information such as business performance or expected profit status, or concealing or reducing important facts, it may be subject to imprisonment for up to 5 years and a fine of up to 300 million won. Lastly, we will look at legal issues related to holding general shareholder meetings and board meetings of corporations. If it is a stock company, it holds a regular general shareholders' meeting once a year, and in this case, it must follow commercial law procedures throughout the entire process from convening notice to decision-making. The most representative example is the omission of registration of changes after the appointment and resignation of directors and auditors. In this case, a fine of up to 5 million won may be imposed, so it is recommended that you apply within the deadline. Effective risk management goes beyond preventing problems and can be a way to increase the sustainability and reliability of a company. Legal risk management is a necessity, not an option, when running a business, and regular legal review and continuous education are the best ways to prepare for potential risks.

There is no obligation to inform the financial institution of the source of funds." An office worker who was put on trial on charges of obtaining a loan by defrauding a financial institution through a broker was found not guilty. On February 20, the Ulsan District Court found Mr. A, an office worker in his 50s, not guilty on charges of fraud. In 2018, Mr. A was accused of conspiring with a loan company to defraud financial institutions and obtain a loan in a situation where normal loans were impossible due to excessive debt and stealing about 100 million won. As a result of the investigation, it was confirmed that the loan company repaid Mr. A's debt on his behalf and raised his credit rating, and that Mr. A used this to borrow money from several financial institutions. The prosecution determined that Mr. A intentionally hid his loan history from the bank and did not explain the reason for his credit rating increase. However, Mr. A completely denied the charges. They refuted that because the interest rate on existing loans was high, they switched loans, or so-called refinancing loans, to obtain low-interest loans. At the same time, Mr. A maintained a high credit rating at the time and claimed that he was fully capable of repaying the loan, including faithfully repaying the principal and interest. He also emphasized that he had already completed repayment of the debt before the police investigation and that there was no intention to defraud him. The court found Mr. A not guilty. The court ruled, “The defendant has no obligation to inform financial institutions of the source of repayment funds or whether there are duplicate loans, etc. under the law, so he has never disclosed false information. Considering that the defendant repaid the principal and interest without delinquency, it cannot be said that he had no intention or ability to repay the loan at the time of the loan.” Attorney Song Min-ye of Daeryun Law Firm, who represented Mr. “We need to determine whether there was intent,” he explained, adding, “Mr. A had sufficient repayment ability, including property income, and was able to avoid fraud charges as it was reflected in the fact that he had actually repaid all of the loan.” Digital Content Team[View full article] Office worker sent to trial for ‘loan transfer’… Law “No intent to defraud” Not guilty (Shortcut) 2026-05-13T12:20:26.494Z https://www.daeryunlaw.com/en/broadcast/4997 Keynote lecture on ‘ESG Control Tower, Creating an ESG Nation’ at the National Assembly Korea ESG Management Innovation Forum on the 21st Park Hee-jung, Head of Legislative Policy Division at Daeryun Law Firm (ESG Chairperson of the Korea Mediation Association, a subsidiary of the National Assembly Secretariat) gave a keynote lecture on the topic of ‘ESG Control Tower, Creating an ESG Nation’ at the ‘3rd Korea ESG Management Innovation Forum’ held in the first conference room of the National Assembly Building on February 21.

At the same time, he mentioned the importance of the role of the National Assembly's legislative policy and the need for government regulation and ESG activities in the private sector, and introduced various initiatives, consultative bodies, and international standards such as ISO.

According to the legal community on the 15th, the 1st Criminal Division of the Cheonan Branch of the Daejeon District Court sentenced Mr. An additional collection order of 50 million won was ordered. Mr. A and others have been working as members of an overseas voice phishing organization since 2017, and are accused of swindling a total of 120 billion won from about 1,800 victims, including Mr. B. They are believed to have taken on various roles, from operators who recruit cash collection agents within the organization and instruct them to commit crimes, to call center counselors impersonating prosecutors, the Financial Supervisory Service, etc. It was revealed that the organization was operated by distributing the proceeds of crime earned through criminal group activities to the members according to their performance and contribution. Victims including Mr. B submitted a petition calling for severe punishment for the defendants. The court sentenced Mr. A and the gang members to heavy sentences. The court said, "The scale of damage caused by the crime in this case is enormous. In addition, no damage has been recovered to date, and it is difficult to expect recovery in the future." “Heavy punishment commensurate with the guilt is inevitable,” he said. Lawyer Daeryun Yoon, who represented victim B, said, “The defendants thoroughly divided their roles to carry out the voice phishing crime organically. Based on the database of victims, they impersonated prosecutors and investigators and committed the crime so cleverly that they had no choice but to deliver money.” He added, “Some of the defendants were active for more than six years, and these organizations created thousands of victims over a long period of time. He pointed out, "The victims, including Mr. B, are spending days of self-blame and regret due to their crimes," and added, "The fact that they continued their activities without a sense of guilt and that no effort was made to recover the damage suffered by the victims was accepted by the court and resulted in a heavy sentence."

On the 13th, actor Nam Yoon-soo was criticized for reposting a post on his social media (SNS) account containing an inflatable structure with a woman's important parts clearly visible. Nam Yoon-soo explained through a fan communication platform, "I was driving. What is the repost? Did I get hacked?" Nevertheless, as the controversy did not die down, Nam Yoon-soo apologized on social media, saying, "Today, I belatedly confirmed that an unpleasant post had been reposted without my knowledge. I am upset and sincerely sorry for causing inconvenience to many people. I will be more careful in the future." As many male celebrities have previously received a lot of criticism for uploading posts or participating in voting under the age of 19, it seems inevitable that Nam Yoon-soo will also suffer damage to his image. Last December, actor Park Sung-hoon caused a lot of shock when he uploaded and deleted a Japanese AV cover parodying 'Squid Game' on social media. The agency explained, “The actor uploaded it by mistake while checking the DM (direct message) window, and since many messages related to the photo were received, he tried to share it on the company account to raise awareness of the problem.” However, despite the agency’s quick explanation, criticism still poured in, and he eventually had to withdraw from his next work, ‘The Tyrant’s Chef.’ Meanwhile, actor Kim Seong-cheol was embroiled in a sexual harassment controversy last February when he participated in a vote on liking or disliking girl group members on an account that uploaded provocative girl group-related content. The account was dealing with problematic content, such as posting a slow video highlighting a specific member's body part, and netizens criticized it, saying, "I don't understand why the official account participated in such a vote." In response, the agency Story J Company responded by saying, "We didn't know it was a controversial account and canceled it immediately after learning about it." The public, especially female fans, are concerned that celebrities they support and support are involved in or inadvertently share content that sexualizes women's bodies. When you see this, rather than accepting it as a simple mistake, you may feel a strong sense of betrayal and discomfort. Also, there is a problem with dismissing all of these incidents as a ‘mistake’. In particular, there is a possibility that posts shared by them by mistake may face legal problems. Attorney Kim Dong-jin of Daeryun Law Firm said, “The mere act of posting (pornography) on SNS that can be viewed by an unspecified number of people can be punished under the Act on Promotion of Information and Communications Network Utilization and Information Protection, etc. (Article 44-7). Depending on the purpose of the act and the extent of the case, the Special Act on Punishment of Sexual Crimes, etc. (Article 13) “There is a possibility of being punished,” he said. However, in the cases in question, they claim it was a “simple mistake,” so he said, “In order to be legally punished, a process of proving intent is first necessary.” Even if immediate legal punishment was avoided, the mere fact of posting pornography on SNS where everyone can see it can have a negative impact on society. Cultural critic Ha Jae-geun said, “Depending on the intention, it will be divided whether the act is wrong or not, but the result is the image of a ‘19+.’ “Because of this, it can have a negative impact on the general public and especially teenagers,” he said. “Celebrities need to be responsible when managing and posting on SNS.” In this way, personal space called SNS can sometimes become a harsh verification stand for the public. Celebrities who work based on public trust seem to need more careful management and responsibility.

It is not a transferred material or a trade secret material.” A consulting company filed a request for a provisional injunction against an employee suspected of leaking trade secrets, but the court did not accept it. The 60th Civil Division of the Seoul Central District Court dismissed the application for a provisional injunction, including a ban on trade secret infringement, filed by consulting company A against employee B in February. Person B, who worked in the human resources team, was suspended from company A in September last year and had the company's servers and Company A was notified that access to mail would be restricted. However, Company A filed a preliminary injunction, claiming that even after Mr. B was suspended, Mr. B accessed the company's server, downloaded a large amount of trade secret information, and transferred some of it to an external hard drive. Mr. B denied the download itself. It is said that he accessed the server to revoke his server privileges. He also emphasized that the files moved to the external hard drive were only evidence for disciplinary action and were not trade secret information. The court ruled in Mr. B's favor. The court said, “When the server is synchronized, the file date value changes. Looking at the changed date value, there is a possibility that the debtor accessed the server at the time,” but added, “Even if you simply connect, it automatically synchronizes.” He added, “This supports the debtor’s claim that he accessed only to remove permission,” and added, “As the data transferred to the storage device is also not case-related data, it cannot be considered that trade secret information was leaked based on this.” Daeryun Law Firm, which represented Mr. B. Attorney Ji Min-hee explained, “Infringement of trade secrets is recognized only when there is an act of using or disclosing trade secret data for the purpose of gaining unfair advantage or inflicting damage. In this case, since Mr. B had neither the purpose of infringement nor use or disclosure, he was able to explain this well and resolve the injustice.” Reporter Kim Jong-cheol (jckim99@sportsseoul.com)[View full article] Are trade secrets leaked when accessing the company server and downloading files?...

According to the legal community on the 14th, Yongsan Police Station in Seoul investigated Mr. A, who was booked on charges of intimidation, and decided not to forward him. In December of last year, when customer B left a complaint on the bulletin board of the travel agency he runs, Mr. A sent a message saying, “I will file a complaint for obstruction of business and defamation.” Mr. B sued Mr. A, claiming, “I left the message because the travel agency did not properly fulfill my demands. I felt very scared after receiving the message.” Article 283 of the Criminal Code stipulates that ‘a person who threatens a person shall be punished by imprisonment for not more than two years, a fine of not more than 5 million won, detention, or a minor fine.’ Mr. A denied the charges. It is true that the product that Mr. B reserved was not provided smoothly, but he was informed of the refund process and politely asked him to take down the post, so it cannot be seen as a threat. As a result of the investigation, the police concluded that it is difficult to say that Mr. B actually felt fear. In addition, the company's representative, Mr. A, found the speculative article and informed it, which can be seen as a legitimate exercise of rights and is considered acceptable in terms of social norms. Mr. A's legal representative, Seungjin Ahn, a lawyer at Daeryun Law Firm, said, "The crime of intimidation is established only when the victim recognizes the notice of harm and feels actual fear. The crime of intimidation does not constitute a crime simply because he heard unpleasant words or felt vague discomfort." Attorney Min also said, “Considering that Mr. A is the representative, there were no illegal elements in requesting the deletion of the post, and because we proved this, we were able to be acquitted.” Reporter Jeong Cheol-wook[View full article] Representative of travel agency accused of ‘threats’ after asking “to take down the post” not guilty (link) 2026-05-13T13:51:51.158Z https://www.daeryunlaw.com/en/broadcast/4984 A man in his 30s who was put on trial for allegedly omitting the purchase price in the process of selling a used cell phone was found not guilty. According to the legal community on the 11th, the Gwangju District Court found Mr. A, in his 30s, not guilty in February on charges of embezzlement on the job. While working at a mobile phone dealer in Gwangju in 2022, Mr. A sold a used mobile phone he received from a customer for 150,000 won, and was sued by the president for not depositing the amount into the company account. Mr. A denied the charge, claiming that he had forgotten to re-deposit the money into the company account after selling the device. The prosecution concluded that Mr. A had an intention to embezzle and indicted him briefly with a fine of 300,000 won, but Mr. A requested a formal trial. “When I was working at the dealership, I had continuously handled the business of selling used devices. Nevertheless, there was a problem only in this one case,” he said. The court also ruled that there was no intention of embezzlement and declared the person not guilty. The court said, “We did not find any suspicious circumstances other than this case,” and ruled, “We cannot rule out the possibility that it was a simple omission, as the defendant claimed.” Kwak Ji-yeon, a lawyer at Daeryun Law Firm who represented Mr. A, said, “Mr. “There was an omission in the delivery of the sales payment by mistake while disposing of the mobile phone,” he explained. “After hearing about the omission from the complainant, he promised to return it, but the complainant immediately filed a complaint.” He also said, “Mr. A had no intent to embezzle, and there was no other evidence to prove it.

In other words, the key to establishing a crime of property damage is ‘intention.’ If you damage another person's property by simple mistake, it does not constitute a crime and you cannot be punished. So, will the charge also apply if you damage another person's property while intoxicated? First of all, the answer to that question is ‘yes’. Even if you do not remember because you are drunk, a legal judgment is made based on evidence. Also, since the crime of property damage is not a crime of pro-reporting or a crime of impunity (a crime that requires the victim to file a complaint), the investigation can proceed even if the victim does not want to be punished. If the charge is applied and you are punished, you can be imprisoned for up to 3 years or fined up to 7 million won in accordance with Article 366 of the Criminal Act (damage to property, etc.). I will introduce a case that I actually handled. Suspect A, while intoxicated, struck a neighbor's vehicle parked in the parking lot of his apartment several times with his foot. As a result, the vehicle was damaged and expensive repair costs were incurred. Mr. A learned that he had committed the crime only after receiving a call from the police the next day. At the time, the scene of Mr. A's crime was captured on CCTV at the scene. In response, Mr. A contacted the victim and offered an apology along with the cost of repairs, and he thought this would put an end to the incident. However, the case was transferred to the prosecution and was in danger of being handed over to trial. During the prosecution investigation stage, the case was actively appealed to the point that was reached with the victim. After securing the victim's statement of leniency that he did not want criminal punishment for Mr. A, this was delivered to the prosecution. As a result, Mr. A was able to receive a non-indictment. Attorney Lee Dong-geun of Daeryun Law Firm said, “What is important in property damage crimes is ‘agreement.’ This is because agreement with the victim is judged to be a sentencing factor for reduced sentences in criminal proceedings. In particular, with regard to agreement, it is necessary to secure accurate data such as conversation details or deposit details between the parties.”[View full article] You can be punished for vandalism and destruction of property while intoxicated...

On February 7, the Gyeonggi Regional Labor Relations Commission issued a citation in a lawsuit filed by a worker in his 40s, A, in his 40s, against manufacturer B for relief from unfair transfers. Person A joined Company B in the early 2000s and has worked there for over 20 years. The problem began when Mr. A was appointed as the team leader of a newly established department in November of last year. Mr. A claimed that this action was part of layoffs. It is said that retaliatory personnel appointments were made when Mr. A did not apply for the company's voluntary retirement recruitment held in January. At the same time, the company emphasized that it was an unfair transfer, saying that the team consisted of people of higher rank than the company and that it was inefficient by assigning tasks that overlapped with the existing organization. Company B completely refuted this. He claimed that a new team was established to strengthen the company's competitiveness and improve production efficiency, and that it was only a transfer accordingly. In addition, it was explained that it was a justified measure because there were no disadvantages to workers' lives, such as an increase in commuting time, and the situation was explained through interviews. The Labor Relations Commission ruled in Mr. A's favor. The committee said, "The management did not assign clear roles when creating the department, so work was not accomplished and no visible results were produced." It also said, "It appears that dissonance within the team continues, with team members having higher ranks than the workers designated as leaders, leading to difficulties in command." He added, "As a result, the purpose and role of the department's existence are very questionable," and "It is difficult to acknowledge the business necessity of the company's transfer as well." Attorney Choi Han-sik of the Daeryun Law Firm, who represented Mr. A in this case, said, "When determining business necessity, the company must objectively look at whether it contributes to rational operation, such as improving work efficiency by appropriately deploying labor." “It appears that the need has not been recognized,” he said.

Labor Committee “Unfair Transfer” (Shortcut) 2026-05-11T11:13:27.947Z https://www.daeryunlaw.com/en/broadcast/4978 The court ruled that even if the facts are not detailed in the notice of dismissal, it does not matter if the person concerned is fully aware of the reason for dismissal. According to the legal community on the 10th, the 2nd administrative division of the Daejeon High Court recently ruled that the plaintiff lost in the administrative lawsuit to cancel the retrial decision for unfair dismissal relief filed by pig farming company employee A and others against the National Labor Relations Commission. Mr. A and others were indicted on charges of selling pork containing pus to a meat packaging company in 2017 and received suspended sentences. Sentenced. Afterwards, the company dismissed Mr. A and others ex officio in accordance with the company's personnel policy that states, "Anyone who has received a sentence of imprisonment or worse cannot be appointed as an employee." In protest, Mr. A and others filed two applications for relief from unfair dismissal to the Labor Relations Commission. However, when all were dismissed, an administrative lawsuit was filed seeking cancellation of this decision. At the trial, Mr. A and others argued that there were procedural problems in the dismissal process. The dismissal decision was not approved by the personnel committee, and the company only provided notice of dismissal and did not provide final notice of dismissal. The management countered that in the case of dismissal due to ex officio dismissal, only a 30-day advance notice is required according to the regulations. The first trial ruled that the National Labor Relations Commission's dismissal of the application for relief was correct, saying, "According to the personnel regulations, in the case of dismissal for disqualification, there is no need to go through a resolution by the personnel committee. Additionally, a 30-day advance notice of dismissal and written notification of the reason and timing of dismissal is sufficient. However, since the company sent a preliminary notice of dismissal, it cannot be considered that there is a procedural illegality." Then, Mr. A and others appealed, saying that there was still a procedural problem because the reason for dismissal in the notice received only included the phrase ‘a sentence higher than imprisonment is confirmed’ and no specific facts were stated. However, the appellate court also ruled that there was no problem with the dismissal procedure. The appellate court ruled, “Considering that Mr. A and others were notified of dismissal after the confirmation of probation and continued to appear at the Labor Relations Commission to apply for relief, and that they had not committed any other crimes before receiving the notice, it is reasonable to assume that they knew that the criminal judgment in the case was used as a reason for dismissal,” adding, “Even if the reason for dismissal was briefly stated, it cannot be considered that there was a procedural defect.” In this case, Lee Ki-jun, an attorney at Daeryun Law Firm who represented the company as an auxiliary defendant, said, “Dismissal was dismissed. “If the person concerned knew the reason for the dismissal and was able to respond, it cannot be said to be a notice of dismissal in violation of the Labor Standards Act even if the reason was not stated in detail, and the fact that Mr. A and others were clearly aware of the reason by actively responding after receiving the notice was accepted, so it could be recognized as a legitimate dismissal procedure.” Reporter Jeong Cheol-wook[View full article] In response to the claim of “unfair notice of dismissal without stating the facts,” the court said, “Recognition of the reason is sufficient” (Shortcut) 2026-05-12T04:35:20.954Z https://www.daeryunlaw.com/en/broadcast/4976 “The strongest response to corporate rehabilitation and bankruptcy”… Daeryun Law Firm brings together a large number of practical experts. As the economic downturn continues, including a long-term slump in domestic demand and high exchange rates, the risk of bankruptcy for domestic companies has increased. According to data from the monthly court statistics, the number of corporate bankruptcy applications reached 1,940 last year, the highest number in the past 10 years. This is a 17.08% increase compared to the previous year (2023), and has been steadily increasing since 2021. Daeryun Law Firm announced on the 9th that it will strengthen the Rehabilitation and Bankruptcy Center in preparation for the financial crisis of companies due to increased uncertainty in the economic environment. The Daeryun Rehabilitation and Bankruptcy Center is comprised of experts with extensive experience in the legal field. Attorney Won-sang Kim, a core member of the center, is a corporate expert who has handled many famous corporate cases and rehabilitation procedures for mid-sized companies, including Pizza Hut Korea and DLL & C. Attorney Il-woo Jeong, who runs the center with Attorney Kim, is a corporate bankruptcy expert who has served as a bankruptcy trustee and a member of the Suwon Rehabilitation Court for many years. Attorney Minsoo Kim, who belongs to the same center, is also a former bankruptcy trustee, and suggests optimal solutions through analysis appropriate to financial situations. The two lawyers have experience successfully handling everything from representing applications for initiation of corporate bankruptcy procedures, such as applications for bankruptcy and applications for rehabilitation, to obtaining approval for rehabilitation plans. In addition, he has accumulated sufficient experience in the field of corporate rehabilitation and bankruptcy, including handling claims settlement litigation that is problematic in bankruptcy procedures. Attorney Choi Seong-moon of the Rehabilitation and Bankruptcy Center also has experience as a bankruptcy trustee. He has excellent expertise in the field of bankruptcy, having successfully led over 1,000 trustee cases. Another team member, attorney Sangwan Oh, is a bankruptcy attorney registered with the Korean Bar Association and has handled major cases such as the rehabilitation of corporate debtors worth 1 billion won. In addition, lawyer Seoyoung Kim, who provides advice to companies in management crisis and has been in charge of bankruptcy and rehabilitation procedures for companies of various sizes from small to medium-sized companies, also joined. In addition, accountant Wonchan Park, a finance and accounting expert, is also affiliated with the Rehabilitation and Bankruptcy Center. Based on his experience in performing numerous accounting audits at large corporations and public institutions, Accountant Park plans to actively assist in management consulting and business legal advice beyond rehabilitation and bankruptcy. The center specifically provides △ assistance in the rehabilitation of companies in financial crisis △ presentation of rehabilitation and bankruptcy solutions appropriate for each company's size △ corporate M&A that can enhance the company's value such as mergers and acquisitions within the rehabilitation process △ resolution of disputes arising from labor relations. Our policy is to provide full legal support in all areas of corporate law, including assistance, advice on relieving tax burdens, support for various corporate registration practices, and other individual rehabilitation and bankruptcy applications. In particular, in case of corporate-related cases, we are strengthening our expertise and providing high-quality legal services in connection with Daeryun Corporate Legal Group. The Rehabilitation and Bankruptcy Center and the Corporate Legal Group plan to continue to provide customized legal support based on their respective capabilities. Attorney Won-sang Kim said, "Due to the difficult economic situation, inquiries about rehabilitation and bankruptcy are rapidly increasing not only for individuals but also for companies," and added, "For companies experiencing financial difficulties, prevent measures such as provisional seizure and seizure due to the immediate financial crisis to secure cash liquidity and receive a certain amount of debt reduction to pay operating profits earned through future business activities in installments over several years. “Corporate rehabilitation that enables long-term development through payment is the most appropriate system,” he emphasized. “Specialized lawyers with extensive legal experience will directly respond to this corporate rehabilitation system and provide customized solutions to quickly respond to the company’s financial crisis.” He also emphasized, “Our center’s greatest goal is to thoroughly analyze the company’s financial structure and establish a strategy to increase the possibility of rehabilitation based on accurate financial data.” Reporter Park Jun-sik (parkjs@wowtv.co.kr)[View full article] Korea Economic Daily TV - "The strongest person in responding to corporate rehabilitation and bankruptcy"...

Lee, a volleyball fan in his 20s, attempted to reserve a ticket to watch volleyball player Kim Yeon-kyung's retirement game on the 8th, but failed. He wanted to get tickets even if he had to pay extra, so he posted “I’m looking for tickets” on social networking service (SNS) X (formerly Twitter). Mr. Lee soon received a call saying he would sell the ticket, and although the price was more than double the regular price, he decided to buy it. Mr. Lee sent money to the seller's account, but never received the ticket. By the time he raised the issue, the seller had already gone into hiding. Seongdong Police Station in Seoul began an investigation after receiving a ticket fraud complaint filed by Mr. Lee. As the domestic professional baseball season opens and festivals and concerts heralding spring continue, ticket scams are rampant. The method of ticket scalping fraud, which is usually carried out through transactions between individuals, is simple, but the number of damage cases continues to increase every year. Experts suggest that institutional improvements are needed, such as increasing the level of punishment for ticket fraud and activating reporting centers. On this day, it was easy to find posts complaining about damage from ticket fraud along with inquiries about seeking tickets to Kim Yeon-kyung's retirement game in online communities. Mr. A, who said his cousin was a victim of a ticket scam, expressed his resentment, saying, “I deposited 360,000 won to purchase tickets for the 5th game at Joonggonara, but was blocked by the scammer.” He added, “The scammer is changing his ID and repeatedly posting the same posts.” Ticket scalping is also a chronic problem in professional baseball, which recently opened and set a record of over 1 million spectators with the fewest games ever (60 games). Last year, scalped tickets for the Korean Series were well over 10 times the regular price, and weekend ticket scalpers worth hundreds of thousands of won are continuing this season as well. The Korea Baseball Organization (KBO) is also working with the 10 clubs in the league to come up with measures to strengthen response to minimize damage from ticket scalping. Ticket scalping fraud in professional sports is increasing every year. According to the Ticket Scam Reporting Center operated by the Ministry of Culture, Sports and Tourism, the number of reports, which was only 6,237 in 2020, jumped more than eight times to 51,405 as of August last year. The total number of reported cases last year is estimated to exceed 60,000 for the first time ever. Crimes are mainly committed online by collecting the ticket price from buyers and then disappearing, or sending fake tickets. There are also cases where a large number of tickets are purchased using a so-called ‘macro (automatic repeat entry program)’ and then sold through scalping to make a large profit. Eunhee Lee, a professor of consumer studies at Inha University, explained, “As ticket purchases and transactions are all done online, the damage to consumers has increased significantly compared to before,” adding, “Criminals are making money more easily.” Measures to eradicate ticket scalping are insufficient. Above all, it is pointed out that the severity of punishment under the current law is weak. On-site ticket scalping is subject to a fine of less than 200,000 won under the Misdemeanor Punishment Act, which is far less than the profits from scalping. Regarding the punishment of scalpers, which are rampant online, since last year, those who use macros can be subject to a maximum of one year in prison or a fine of up to 10 million won, but investigative agencies are having difficulty proving that macros were used. Attorney Shin Yong-hoon (Daeryun Law Firm) said, “There are strong concerns that the level of punishment is lower than the profits in the case of some scalpers.” He emphasized, “There must be a means to deprive people of benefits through regulations.” Professor Lee Eun-hee said, “This is not a problem that can be solved simply by increasing the number of public officials who monitor,” and advised, “We need to consider activating a reporting center that collects ticket trading activities and linking it with the police.” Reporters Jang Han-seo and Byun Se-hyeon[View full article] “Kim Yeon-kyung disappeared after receiving 360,000 won in tickets for her retirement game”… Even though ticket scalping and fraud are rampant, punishment is mild (link) 2026-05-13T12:48:18.508Z https://www.daeryunlaw.com/en/broadcast/4972 The Fair Trade Compliance Program (CP) refers to an internal compliance system to voluntarily comply with the laws and regulations under the Fair Trade Commission. For the competition authorities, it has the advantage of minimizing administrative costs due to ex post sanctions, and for companies, it not only prevents the burden of investigations and sanctions, but also prevents the corporate image from being tarnished. Above all, if CP is introduced and its operation performance is evaluated as excellent, there is a benefit of receiving a fine reduction of up to 20%. CP, which was introduced in 2001, was abolished in 2014 due to criticism that it was being abused for the purpose of reducing fines. However, it became a more effective system by establishing the basis for fine reduction incentives in the law in 2023. Recently, the Fair Trade Commission has issued an administrative notice on the revision of the CP notice and is collecting opinions, and the main changes are the evaluation stage, additional points, and evaluation procedures. First of all, the order of the evaluation stages is There has been a change. The existing evaluation was conducted in the order of documents, on-site evaluation, and in-depth interviews, but starting this year, face-to-face (interview) evaluation will be conducted after document evaluation. Afterwards, the evaluation process and work will be somewhat simplified as on-site evaluations will be conducted only for companies that have recorded (scheduled) a face-to-face evaluation score of 85 or higher. In particular, systems excluding rating invalidation, rating withholding, and rating invalidation during rating adjustment during the evaluation process will be abolished. Rating withholding refers to a system of withholding ratings when inappropriate reasons arise for assigning a rating due to concerns about compromising the fairness and reliability of the CP system, such as when a case is being submitted for alleged violation of fair trade-related laws. Grade correction is a system where measures are lowered if a violation of the law occurs before or after the grade is assigned. Starting this year, if you are punished for interfering with investigative activities or are evaluated in a false or fraudulent manner, such as by submitting false data, your evaluation will be invalidated. The most important thing in the CP rating is the CEO's will. The areas where the CEO's will can be quantified include △whether CP is introduced, △appointment of a compliance manager, △dedicated organization and budget support, △education, △prior monitoring and whistle-blowing, △incentives, and △effectiveness evaluation. In particular, it is recommended to enter the CEO's participation and the number of reports and approvals in most of the detailed measurement indicators. Strengthening the capabilities of the CP department is essential. In particular, in the case of additional points, the capabilities of the CP department become important. The evaluation items consist of 48 for large companies and 40 for medium-sized and small-sized companies, but the CP department cannot fill these items through independent efforts. However, since the points factors can be accomplished through CP's own efforts, strengthening capabilities is essential. Most companies that received AA to AAA ratings last year are operating as a team directly under the CEO, such as appointing vice presidents and other relevant leadership. In particular, you must pay attention to the introduction and operation of CP by other companies (partners) with the highest points (4 points). Analysis of best practices is also important. This is because the number of evaluation targets more than doubled last year compared to the year before, making qualitative evaluation through comparison with other corporate cases inevitable. Therefore, it is necessary to persuade internal stakeholders, such as the CEO, by referring to best practices and, if possible, receive assistance from external experts with extensive CP consulting experience. Small and Medium Business Team[View full article] Recent changes to the fair trade compliance program and response strategies (link) 2026-05-04T09:24:42.782Z https://www.daeryunlaw.com/en/broadcast/4970 Today, the Korean legal market is at a crossroads where structural change is inevitable, beyond simple internal competition. Sustainable competitiveness can no longer be achieved simply by taking on more cases or securing talent. What is needed now is a decision and implementation as to whether to stick to the existing office-centered, individual performance-centered traditional structure or to reorganize into an integrated system that meets global standards. In a situation where large American law firms have already been institutionally allowed to enter the country through the Korea-U.S. Free Trade Agreement (FTA), unless changes are made, there will be no place for Korean law firms in the next stage of competition. Nevertheless, many domestic law firms still look like one organization on the outside, but in reality, they are adhering to a ‘separate system’ structure in which overall operations such as case acceptance, profit distribution, and cost management are separated by partner units. This is a structure in which the appearance and substance of the organization are inconsistent, and has structural limitations in collaboration, integration, and brand management. On the other hand, the ‘regional distributed-operation integrated model’ commonly adopted by large global law firms is a structure in which offices are integrated and operated under one system even if they are dispersed by region. However, due to a lack of understanding of this, there are many cases in Korea where it is misunderstood as an unfamiliar and inefficient system, or appears in a distorted form as a ‘network law firm’ that only imitates its appearance. Meanwhile, resistance to the transition to this global system is expressed in the form of regulation through regulations or misleading the media. However, such resistance is inevitably powerless in the face of the huge flow of the global market. The moment large foreign law firms enter the domestic market in earnest, the market order and competitive landscape will be quickly reorganized. This is similar to the case in the past when the iPhone appeared in the domestic market, where existing mobile phone brands immediately took the lead. Therefore, rather than rejecting the introduction of the global system, we must first accurately understand it and implement and operate it ourselves to take the lead. Daeryun Law Firm was the first to detect this trend of change and set a clear strategic direction in line with it. Daeryun's goal is not to survive domestically, but to grow into a large global law firm. To this end, we have learned and interacted with the systems of major law firms around the world, and while preparing to open Daeryun's New York office, the author also visited the New York headquarters of Milbank LLP and saw first-hand the practical integrated operating system in which partners of different nationalities jointly handle one case. Based on this experience, Daeryun has established an integrated operating system between offices across the country, a case sharing system, and a centralized risk and accounting management system that meets international standards. In addition, we are actively reviewing and preparing for implementation of various forms of practical global cooperation, such as strategic partnerships with foreign law firms, joint brand building, mutual investment, and mergers and acquisitions (M&A). The reality facing Korean law firms is not a matter of choice. Having a structure and system that meets global standards is a necessary condition for survival, and furthermore, rather than passively accepting the standards, we must actively design them to fit our reality and materialize them in a way that can actually operate. Daeryun Law Firm was the first to detect these changes and is actually creating a structure appropriate for them. Through this, Daeryun hopes to become a standard that suggests the direction in which Korean law firms should move.[View full article] [Contribution] Korean legal market in crisis, must move forward to meet global standards (Click here) 2026-05-12T12:22:55.432Z https://www.daeryunlaw.com/en/broadcast/4969 A man in his 60s, who was at risk of being sent to trial on charges of receiving insurance money by issuing a false medical certificate, was cleared of the charges after a supplementary investigation. According to the legal community on the 8th, the Hyehwa Police Station in Seoul recently decided not to send Mr. A, in his 60s, who was booked on charges of violating the Special Act on Prevention of Insurance Fraud. Mr. A was booked and investigated by the police on charges of receiving insurance benefits by issuing a false medical certificate at a hospital in 2021. The insurance company sued Mr. A, believing that he had obtained insurance money by collaborating with the hospital and receiving the treatment in multiple installments. However, Mr. A denied the charges, saying that he received normal treatment according to the doctor's recommendation to treat his disease. At the same time, he claimed that since he received the insurance money after going through the insurance company's review process, if there was a mistake, it was the insurance company's fault. Initially, the police believed that Mr. A was guilty and sent the case to the prosecution with a recommendation for prosecution. However, the prosecution decided that a more detailed investigation was necessary and requested a supplementary investigation. After a supplementary investigation, the police confirmed that Mr. A had received multiple medical certificates and submitted them to the insurance company, but determined that he had been treated according to the doctor's opinion without any medical expertise. In addition, since the procedure and re-treatment were normally recorded in the medical record, it was ruled that it could not be said that he received a false medical certificate or colluded with the doctor. Mr. A's representative, Soo-hwon Kim, a lawyer at the Daeryun Law Firm, said, "In order to be guilty of insurance fraud, you must receive insurance money based on a false medical certificate, such as by intentionally extending the treatment period. However, during the investigation, we were able to avoid punishment by emphasizing the fact that Mr. A received a normal procedure to treat the disease he suffered from."

Victims petition for strict punishment A man in his 50s who stole 2.5 billion won from four victims under the pretext of granting them membership in a local housing cooperative was sentenced to prison. The 32nd Criminal Division of the Seoul Central District Court sentenced Mr. A, who was put on trial in February on charges of violating the Act on the Aggravated Punishment of Specific Economic Crimes, etc., to 7 years in prison. According to Article 3 of the Act on the Aggravated Punishment of Specific Economic Crimes, etc., the profits obtained from crimes are more than 500 million won. If the amount is less than 5 billion won, you can be sentenced to imprisonment for a fixed term of 3 years or more. Mr. A, a construction worker, stole a total of 2.55 billion won from victims by suggesting to his acquaintances, “If you pay a certain amount, you will be able to receive an apartment at a lower cost than ordinary union members.” However, as a result of the investigation, it was found that Mr. A had never established the union itself and had never secured land or approved a business plan. It was confirmed. At the trial, Mr. A denied all charges, saying there was no intention to deceive. The court sentenced him to prison considering the nature of the crime and the degree of damage. The court stated the reason for the sentencing, saying, “The scale of the damage was significant, and no special efforts were made to recover the damage suffered by the victims, so the nature of the crime is very poor.” Attorney Park Seong-yoon of Daeryun Law Firm, who served as the legal representative for the victims, said, “Even if Mr. A received money from the victims, he had no intention or ability to grant union membership or sell an apartment,” and added, “As a result of checking the account details, the misappropriated money was used for personal purposes such as food expenses or for other business expenses.” “It was discovered that it was used,” he explained. He continued, “In particular, Mr. A committed the crime by taking advantage of the trust that came from his personal relationship with the victims, and some of them even lost their life savings.” At the same time, he added, “Mr. A did not stop the secondary assault, including threatening and urging an agreement under the pretext of repaying the damage,” and added, “The victims’ plea for severe punishment for Mr. A was recognized and the prison sentence was handed down.” Reporter Kim Jong-cheol (jckim99@sportsseoul.com)[View full article] False advertisements make you feel like you have met the legal requirements for recruiting members and purchasing land, but you can lose all your life savings...

The court said, “A crime that took advantage of a relationship of trust... The crime was bad and the damage was significant.” A group of people who defrauded a woman suffering from mental illness and stole tens of millions of won worth of money and valuables was sentenced to prison. The Eastern Branch of the Busan District Court sentenced two people, including Mr. A, who were put on trial on charges of quasi-fraud in February, to one year and one year and four months in prison, respectively. They were accused of opening a mobile phone in the name of Mr. B, whom they met in an open chat room in 2021, and making small payments without permission. In addition, it was confirmed that they stole money from Mr. B's account and obtained a loan by impersonating Mr. B based on false documents, stealing about 35 million won in money and valuables. It was revealed that they committed this crime by deliberately approaching Mr. B, knowing that he suffers from autism and lacks intellectual ability. The court sentenced them to prison. sentenced. The court explained the reason for sentencing, saying, “The nature of the crime that took advantage of a personal relationship of trust is bad and the amount of damage is significant,” and “The defendants did not faithfully attend the trial, such as failing to appear at the trial date, and committed the crime while on probation for the same crime.” Attorney Chun Jeong-min of Daeryun Law Firm, who represented Mr. B, said, “At the time of applying for the loan, the defendants falsely filled out an income verification form, which amounts to forging a private document.” “When submitting it to the bank, you could be subject to severe punishment as you were even charged with using a forged private document,” he said.

According to the legal community on the 7th, the Incheon District Court sentenced Mr. A, in his 50s, who was indicted on fraud charges in February, to 3 years and 6 months in prison. Mr. A deceived two people, including Mr. B, who was introduced through an acquaintance in 2020, and stole about 670 million won in investment funds. This is a charge. At the time, Mr. A deceived the victims by saying, "We are currently pursuing a project to build and sell a legal town. The holding work has been completed and the building is expected to be completed within a year." He said, "If you invest, we will definitely pay the principal and profits." However, the project was not even completed, and the building permit was canceled by the local government in charge, making it impossible to proceed with the business normally. In particular, Mr. A was being tried for fraud at the time, but did not inform the victims of this fact. It was revealed that he had continued to receive investment money. The court sentenced Mr. A to 3 years and 6 months in prison and stated the reason for the sentence, saying, “The amount of damage was large, and although a considerable amount of time had passed since the date of the crime, no significant recovery of damage to the victims was achieved.” It also ordered payment of 470 million won to Mr. B, one of the victims. Mr. B’s legal representative, attorney Park Shin-young of the Daeryun Law Firm, said: “Mr. A continued to engage in deceptive behavior, including writing a false memorandum of performance of promise to the victim asking for the return of the investment money,” he said. “During the trial, he did not even make a sincere apology or even make an effort to repay the damages, so he needed to be severely punished.” Reporter Eui-jin Jeong (jej88@ikbc.co.kr)[View full article] 'Suspicion of fraud', 50-year-old, committed fraud of hundreds of millions of won while on trial (Shortcut) 2026-05-08T05:12:47.223Z https://www.daeryunlaw.com/en/broadcast/4954 Served as Chief Judge of Seoul Central District Court and Eastern District Court... Daeryun Law Firm, with a variety of experience including public life as a trial researcher at the 23rd Court and an arbitrator at the Korea Commercial Arbitration Board, announced on the 7th that it will recruit lawyer Yeo Sang-won, who has experience as a chief judge, to strengthen its litigation capabilities in all areas. Attorney Yeo, who graduated from Gyeongbuk High School and Seoul National University Law School, is a ‘two-time winner of the civil service exam’, having passed both the 1981 public administration exam (25th) and the 1983 bar exam (25th). Attorney Yeo, who took her first steps into the legal field by being appointed as a judge at the Uijeongbu District Court in 1988, served at the Seoul Southern District Court, the Changwon District Court, and the Seoul High Court, and served as the head of the Yeongdong branch of the Cheongju District Court. Afterwards, he served as a chief judge at the Suwon District Court, Seoul Central District Court, and Seoul Eastern District Court, where he tried various cases and also served as head of the criminal department dedicated to drugs. He also has diverse experience in in-depth legal review, including as a trial researcher at the Supreme Court and as an arbitrator at the Korea Commercial Arbitration Board. After completing 23 years of public service, Attorney Yeo began her full-time legal career in 2011. For example, a defendant with a history of using methamphetamine was sentenced to probation. In addition, he achieved significant results in a number of civil and criminal cases, including winning a drug price reduction lawsuit on behalf of the Ministry of Health and Welfare and receiving the Minister of Health and Welfare's Award.

Although new law firms may lack capital compared to established law firms, they are confident that they are not inferior in their desire for innovation and the ability to implement it. However, we deeply regret the attempts to check the growing law firms and distort their essence through this ‘frame’. Strategies such as △operating multiple branch offices △digital marketing-centered customer approach strategy △efficient case handling system, etc. must be understood in terms of the philosophy and operation method pursued by each law firm. However, standardizing these into one framework stems from a lack of understanding of the direction of development of ‘future legal services.’ The most important thing is whether the legal system works around customers. This was when I was a young lawyer. The client was crying in the courtroom hallway. When I looked closely and asked, ‘Did I lose the case?’, the trial had not even started. But soon a roar was heard. On this floor, a fairly famous lawyer was yelling at his client. I realized the backwardness and authoritarianism of the domestic legal market as I saw customers who paid for legal services and were reprimanded again. At that time, I first felt that in legal services, the customer should be the subject of the service. Daeryun Law Firm, which started from this awareness of the problem, has ‘customer-centered legal service’ as its core philosophy. Most established law firms have offices in Seoul and bring local clients to Seoul. On the other hand, Daeryun has offices close to living areas for convenient access from anywhere. Even after the appointment, the customer management team regularly checks the level of satisfaction and communication, and if necessary, a system has been created to replace the attorney in charge and provide refunds. This process attracted enough attention that large Japanese law firms also wanted to benchmark it. Another key to change is marketing methods. Until just a few years ago, the legal market was more closed than anywhere else. In order to find out what legal information was available, I had to mobilize my family and friends to do some digging. To that extent, it has become natural for this market to be ‘operated in the dark’ centered around judicial brokers. This ultimately resulted in excessive fees being passed on to customers. In order to eliminate this method and increase transparency and accessibility of information, we have made online marketing our main method. Just by looking at the website, you can now understand the sentences and issues. However, this method eventually led to an overheated advertising market, and high advertising costs once again led to the burden on customers. Today, the case handling system of global law firms is similar to the hospital treatment system. Professional personnel are assigned to each stage, including consultation, writing, and trial attendance, to increase work efficiency and quality. The key is to establish a structure in which the general manager takes center stage and each stage collaborates closely to prevent this division of labor from becoming irresponsible. The reason we operate a single One Firm system, which is rare in Korea, is for strategic consistency and communication with customers. Attorneys at Jeon Gwan are no exception, and under this structure, they also contribute substantially to the overall case handling, including attendance at trials and strategic advice. In addition, we generously reinvest in institutional innovation, such as developing AI legal services, improving customer service, and expanding into global markets. Legal services are now evolving from expert-centered to customer-centered. What is more important than the size or form of the structure is what philosophy it operates on. Changes in the market have already begun, and Daeryun will respond to them with action. Representative Attorney Park Dong-il (Daeryun Law Firm)[View full article] The subject of legal services is the ‘customer’ (Shortcut) 2026-05-13T14:48:59.533Z https://www.daeryunlaw.com/en/broadcast/4942 Daeryun Law Firm, which operates educational programs such as international legal theory and practice, announced on the 3rd that it signed an MOU with Ewha Womans University Law School (Law School) to foster global legal professionals. At the signing ceremony held at Ewha Womans University Law School on the 2nd, Daeryun's Managing Director Kim Kuk-il, Director Attorney Ye-seom Lee, Ewha Womans University Law School Dean Kim Hyeon-cheol, Vice Dean of Academic Affairs Kim Byeong-seon, Student Affairs Vice Dean Jeong In-kyung, and Planning and Evaluation Department Director Lim Jae-hyuk attended the signing ceremony. It was conducted with participation. Ewha Womans University Law School, which opened in 2009 after graduating from the College of Law in 1950 and the College of Law in 1996, is a historic educational institution that has produced many of the best female lawyers in Korea. Ewha Womans University Law School has led the legal field by producing Korea's first female lawyer, Constitutional Court judge, and Minister of Government Legislation. In addition, last year, it ranked first among 25 law schools nationwide in hiring new trial researchers and prosecutors. Daeryun ranked 9th in terms of sales in the law firm industry last year, becoming one of the top 10 law firms in the domestic legal market. This is thanks to the establishment of specialized groups in each field, including corporate, tax, and medical care, and the steady recruitment of experts suited to the characteristics of each field. In particular, the company is accelerating its expansion into Tokyo, Japan, and New York, USA, and is also targeting the global market. In addition, as part of his social responsibility, Daeryun established the public interest association ‘Relationship Law’ in February and began activities in earnest. This agreement was promoted to increase international competitiveness by nurturing global young and prospective legal professionals. Through this agreement, the two companies plan to cooperate in △ domestic and international legal market analysis research △ lectures on international legal theory and practice △ promotion of education and seminars to foster global legal professionals. In particular, Daeryun plans to provide special benefits by selecting trainees every year and providing them with practical training opportunities. Through this, Ewha Womans University Law School students are expected to be able to gain experience in the actual legal field. Director Kim Hyun-cheol of Ewha Womans University Law School said, “We signed this agreement to open good opportunities to more students. We plan to hold a ‘talent fair’ in the future, and I hope it will be an opportunity to introduce global vision and direction between both companies.” He added, “A variety of practical experiences are needed to cultivate global legal professionals, and Daeryun, a law firm that is in the midst of expanding into overseas markets, can be of great help. “I think there will be, and I hope that students will be able to gain diverse learning and experiences through future exchanges.” In addition, Director Kim added, “I would like to participate as a member of ‘Relationship Law,’ an incorporated association established by Daeryun, and realize the values ​​of education and public interest together.” Daeryun CEO Kim Kuk-il said, “I am happy to cooperate with Ewha Womans University, which has a reputation as a prestigious institution for producing lawyers,” and added, “We plan to select excellent students every year and help them broaden their knowledge of the overseas legal market.” He said, “Currently, we are in the process of expanding into overseas markets such as Japan and the United States, as well as recruiting human resources such as lawyers specializing in foreign law.

Criminal Division 5 of the Jeonju District Court found Mr. A (34) not guilty on the 19th of last month on charges of violating the Special Act on Insurance Fraud. Around February 2023, Mr. A is accused of intentionally hitting Mr. B's vehicle, which violated a red light, at an intersection in downtown Jeonju, causing an accident, and pocketing millions of won in insurance money from insurance companies. As a result of the investigation, it was confirmed that Mr. A was involved in a total of 27 traffic accidents over a 10-year period, and that the insurance money received by Mr. A was over 14 million won. Mr. A denied the charges and pleaded not guilty. Mr. A's side emphasized, "The accident was only caused by the other vehicle violating the Road Traffic Act," and "There were almost no accidents other than this incident that were caused by Mr. A's negligence." The court also accepted Mr. A's claim and declared him not guilty. The court ruled, "The fact that the frequency of accidents is somewhat higher than that of ordinary car insurance policyholders does not mean that Mr. A has an intention to evade insurance money." Mr. A's legal representative, attorney Cho Won-jin of Daeryun Law Firm, said, "Mr. A's accident was a common accident that can occur in everyday life, and the other vehicle's fault ratio was much greater." He explained, “I may have been negligent in failing to fulfill my duty of care as a driver, but I did not cause the accident to collect insurance money.” He added, “We were able to safely be found not guilty by emphasizing that there was no intention to evade insurance money.” Reporter Hwang Jeong-won (jwhwang@mt.co.kr)[View full article] A man in his 30s who received 14 million won in insurance money after 20 traffic accidents... Court 'not guilty' (link) 2026-05-10T06:33:35.715Z https://www.daeryunlaw.com/en/broadcast/4935 Daeryun Law Firm announced on the 3rd that it will establish a new Litigation Management Headquarters and advance its operation method by benchmarking advanced overseas legal systems. The purpose is to differentiate itself from network law firms, which have been controversial due to issues such as excessive fees, and to provide optimized services to individual and corporate customers by minimizing errors that may occur during the case process. Since opening as Daeryun General Law Office in 2016, Daeryun has entered the top 10 law firms based on sales in the shortest period of 9 years. Last year's sales amounted to 112.7 billion won, a 60% increase over the previous year. Daeryun believes that this growth has been possible by introducing lawyers dedicated to counseling, assisting with team-based cases, and establishing a system that leads to customer satisfaction. Daeryun has introduced and is operating a one-firm system in which the main office manages cases filed at branch offices across the country. When a consulting lawyer communicates directly with the client and accurately analyzes the contents of the case, an optimized lawyer is assigned to each case, and a dedicated team is also formed when necessary. Through this system, Daeryun's policy is to utilize the expertise of each lawyer and simultaneously increase client satisfaction. In addition, by recently establishing the Litigation Management Headquarters, we are focusing on improving the quality of legal services. The Litigation Management Headquarters is a group that commands and supervises the overall litigation administration. It is comprised of three management departments: civil affairs/departmental affairs, criminal affairs, and housekeeping/litigation service management. If a case is designated as a litigation guidance management case under the ex officio authority of the head of the division, the group's lawyers participate in the role of the actual general division head, preventing poor defense, missing information, and lack of progress explanations, which are problems in some law firms, and minimizing communication errors with clients. Daeryun also transplanted the system of Baker & McKinsey, the world's largest law firm, to suit domestic circumstances in order to establish a global forum infrastructure. Senior lawyers in the entire department are directly involved in cases, including attending investigations and appearing in court, and operate in a structure similar to the case handling process of large American law firms. Based on this strategy, we have established cooperative relationships with leading overseas law firms. Representative examples include signing MOUs with Korini, an American real estate comprehensive solution platform, and Verivest, a large Japanese law firm. Based on this, we are increasing customer accessibility and convenience by setting up offices in major cities around the world. We also plan to provide a special lecture on management strategies utilizing this experience to law school students within the year. Kim Kuk-il, CEO of Daeryun Management, said, “Some law firms often borrow only the name of a lawyer, but Daeryun takes charge of the entire process in many cases.” He added, “Through the main office management system, you can receive high-quality legal services anywhere in the country, and we will do our best with the goal of 100% client satisfaction in the future.” Reporter Jeong Cheol-wook[View full article] Seoul Shinmun - Daeryun, “Improving the quality of legal services”...

As a result, various allowances, such as regular bonuses and regular bonuses with conditions of employment or working days, that were previously excluded from ordinary wages, can now be included in ordinary wages, which is expected to have a significant impact on both employers and workers. From the company's perspective, overtime, night, and holiday work allowances, annual leave allowances, etc. must be recalculated based on the new standard. There has been a burden, and we are in a situation where we need to overhaul the existing wage system on a large scale. In particular, industries with a high proportion of allowances, such as manufacturing and finance, are expected to see an increase in both legal risks and labor cost burdens. On the other hand, workers are expected to see wage increases in the short term, but in the long term, they may face new risks such as job instability or a shift to a performance-based compensation structure. Chungcheong Newspaper met with Kim Jeong-beom, an attorney specializing in labor law at the Daejeon branch office of Daeryun Law Firm, and started with the basic concept of ordinary wages. The impact of the change in Supreme Court precedent and the specific response measures that companies should take in practice were summarized in a Q&A format.Q. The terms ‘compensation for small-time work’ and ‘fixity’ are unfamiliar. What does it mean if you summarize it in an easy-to-understand way for the general public?A. 'Predetermined work compensation' refers to the compensation that workers receive for the hours they promise to work (prescribed working hours), that is, basic pay and regular allowances. 'Fixity' refers to an amount determined in advance without certain conditions, and with this ruling, this requirement has been excluded, allowing it to be included in ordinary wages even if employment conditions are attached. Q. If the normal wage range is expanded, will it also affect the minimum wage calculation?A. Although there is no direct impact, the wage items included may vary when determining whether or not to comply with the minimum wage. In the case of the performance-based salary system, whether or not ordinary wages are included depends on the volatility and fixity, and the wage peak system may require recalculation of allowances based on the reduced wage. Q. Which industries will be most affected by this ruling?A. This includes manufacturing, finance, transportation, and health care industries. These industries have a high proportion of regular bonuses and allowances and frequent shift work, so if the method of calculating normal wages is changed, the burden of increased labor costs is high.Q. Does this precedent have an impact on labor-management negotiations?A. Of course. Reorganization of the basic salary-centered wage system, attempts to expand performance bonuses, and negotiations over past unpaid allowances may occur. Conflicts between labor and management may increase over the reorganization of wage items.Q. Is this ruling unconditionally favorable to workers?A. In the short term, it may be advantageous due to an increase in statutory allowances. However, if a company pursues a response strategy such as reducing overtime or converting to performance bonuses, long-term wage stability may decline.Q. What countermeasures should a company consider first?A. Examining the wage system and reviewing whether allowances include regular wages Recalculating statutory allowances such as extensions and night allowances Revising employment rules and collective agreements Establishing a mid- to long-term wage structure reform strategy Strengthening sufficient communication with workers Q. What role does Daeryun Law Firm’s ordinary wage task force play?A. The TF team, launched immediately after the ruling in December 2024, is composed of labor lawyers and labor attorneys and is focusing on minimizing legal risks for companies. It provides all-round support, including diagnosis of ordinary wages, advice on recalculation of statutory allowances, consulting on wage system reform, support for labor-management negotiations, and response to legal disputes.

The investigation stage is further divided into before and after the case is transferred to the police, and progresses into the police stage and the prosecution stage. In practice, you often come across clients who seek a lawyer only after they have already been investigated by the police. The person in question considers it as simply a one-time investigation, but from a lawyer's perspective, there are many cases where a major turning point in the case has already been passed. Since the trial begins with the prosecution's indictment, the general public often overlooks the importance of responding early to the investigation. But the reality is not like that. There are many cases where the outline and direction of the case are largely determined at the beginning of the investigation, especially at the police stage. Whether or not to admit the charges, what statement to make and how to make it, and the attitude and expression of each statement have a great impact on whether or not to be prosecuted and future defense strategies. In particular, if the statement is inconsistent or inconsistent, the credibility of the person's entire statement is bound to be shaken. In fact, even though it was a similar case, there are many cases where the person received legal assistance in the early stages to organize the facts, submitted a written opinion to the investigative agency, and continued to make consistent arguments, resulting in a disposition of ‘no charges’ or ‘suspended prosecution.’ Conversely, if the suspect has been investigated alone several times and then belatedly hires a lawyer, the unfavorable statements have already been recorded and the room for defense is greatly reduced. In some cases, out of embarrassment, a person recklessly denies the charges, but later changes his position and admits to the crime, thereby losing the important sentencing element of ‘cooperating with the investigation from the beginning.’ In this way, the initial response to the investigation is completely different from the perception that “all you have to do is undergo the investigation.” Once a statement is made, it cannot be easily taken back, and a single expression written in the record can have a significant impact on legal interpretation. Therefore, before engaging in an investigation by an investigative agency, it is advisable to clearly organize one's position and make a statement after receiving a sufficient explanation of the legal structure and issues of the case. Therefore, it is necessary to recognize that it is necessary to receive legal assistance before being investigated. The sooner you start your defense strategy, the better, and it is important to remember that the criminal process begins before the investigation, not after the indictment.[View full article] [Contribution] How to defend yourself in the early stages of an investigation (Shortcut) 2026-05-12T11:25:55.242Z https://www.daeryunlaw.com/en/broadcast/4925 Mr. A, an office worker living in Busan, was implicated in a sex crime after drinking and falling asleep with a coworker with whom he was close. A co-worker filed a complaint against Mr. A, and the prosecution handed Mr. A over to trial based on the victim's statement. However, the Busan District Court found Mr. A not guilty, saying there was insufficient evidence. Sexual crimes vary slightly depending on the case, such as forcible molestation, quasi-rape, and rape, but they are generally punished strongly as they are included in the 'three major violent crimes.' Even for the crime of quasi-forcible molestation, a person can be sentenced to imprisonment for up to 10 years or a fine of up to 15 million won, and for rape, the sentence consists only of imprisonment without a fine for a fixed term of more than 3 years. However, since sexual crime cases mainly occur in closed places, it is difficult to secure objective evidence in most cases. Therefore, the victim's statement is often the only evidence, and it is also difficult for the suspect to prove his innocence when he is placed in an unfair situation. If he is unfairly accused even though he did not commit a sex crime, a response strategy must be systematically developed. Above all, it is important to argue logically. Even those claiming innocence must have their credibility recognized by investigative and judicial authorities through consistent statements. In addition, they must secure as much data as possible to clear the charges. The key is to collect data that can prove the circumstances of the incident, such as CCTV, message records, and phone call recordings, and to find any parts that contradict the victim's statement. In addition, if you are charged with sexual harassment, you must claim that there was no intention. The court determines guilt by considering the location of the crime, the reason for physical contact, the surrounding circumstances, and the circumstances of the report. Accordingly, it must be proven that the contact was unavoidable through verification of the situation, such as a specific simulation. In the previous case, Mr. A consistently denied the charges with the help of a sex crime lawyer. In addition, the circumstances of exchanging messages with the victim as usual immediately after the incident were presented as evidence. In addition, he was able to get rid of the charges by emphasizing that there were contradictions between the victim's statement and the witness's remarks. Attorney Lee Seung-ho of Daeryun Law Firm's Busan headquarters branch office said, "If you are involved in a sex crime, you need a careful approach and strategic response from the early stage with an expert. Furthermore, if it is revealed that the charge originated from a false claim, you can also receive legal response related to false accusation." “It’s good,” he said.

Establishment of an ‘integrated law firm’ system “Strengthening expertise in all fields... We will spare no effort in providing thorough legal support from initial consultation to resolution” The paradigm of legal services is changing. In the past, it was common for an individual lawyer to take charge of the entire litigation process from consultation to trial, but now, as the complexity of cases increases, such as civil disputes turning into criminal cases or corporate disputes being linked to violations of the Fair Trade Act, the need to provide comprehensive legal solutions is emerging. In this trend, nine years ago, Daeryun Law Firm emerged with a differentiated positioning as a ‘general legal hospital’ and attracted the attention of the industry. Just as in a general hospital, multiple specialists collaborate to comprehensively diagnose and treat the patient's condition, Daeryun also has a system in which various experts come together to provide customized legal services in a one-stop manner. Based on this, Daeryun ranked 9th in the law firm industry's sales in 2024 within 9 years of its establishment and became one of the 'Top 10 Law Firms'. Kim Kuk-il, CEO of Daeryun Law Firm, said, "General hospitals provide medical services for accurate disease diagnosis. “Emergency medicine and pathology doctors identify the patient's symptoms through consultation and assign a specialist accordingly,” he said. “Because early diagnosis is important in legal matters, we are focusing on accurately understanding the essence of the problem, and analyzing the characteristics of each case and assigning the right expert.” In fact, within the law firm Daeryun, a lawyer who only provides legal consultation is in charge of the first consultation in order to accurately and quickly identify issues in the early stage. This is a method in which a lawyer with experience in cases in various fields accurately diagnoses the case and suggests the optimal solution. CEO Kook-il Kim said, “Through consulting attorneys, you can not only provide solutions but also proactively receive legal advice on related legal risks.” In addition, law firm Daeryun has established itself as an “integrated law firm” by reorganizing its own dividend system. After the consulting attorney's diagnosis of the case is completed, experts specialized in each field, including civil and criminal affairs, as well as corporate legal affairs, finance, intellectual property rights, and debt collection, are assigned to help resolve the case. The system has been reorganized so that customers, including corporations, can receive all necessary assistance within the law firm without having to move to multiple law firms. The advantage is that a comprehensive response is possible in a wide range of fields based on the expertise secured by recruiting experts in various fields such as taxation, accounting, and international trade. Furthermore, by establishing a close collaboration system between the main office in Yeouido and 42 branch offices nationwide, the direct distribution system through the main office control tower has been advanced so that experts specialized in the case are assigned even if consultation is received from anywhere. This is a system that was established from the beginning of the law firm Daeryun's establishment in order to overcome the limitations of the existing legal market, where there is a gap in the quality of legal services between Seoul and other regions. “The purpose of customers coming to the law firm is to win their cases through legal support,” said Ko Byeong-jun, CEO of the law firm Daeryun. “It is a system for customers who were previously limited in the choice of lawyers within a small region to optimally match an experienced and professional lawyer to their case beyond regional limitations.” “At Daeryun, among hundreds of lawyers, a single team that includes the lawyer who is best suited to the client’s case takes charge of the case, establishes a progress strategy, and proceeds.” said Go Byeong-jun, the general manager and managing attorney, “Daeryun considers the rights and interests of clients as its top priority, and with the motto of being a ‘general legal hospital,’ we have made Daeryun what it is today by continuously strengthening our expertise so that we can resolve cases in any field in one place at Daeryun.” “We will become a legal partner that clients can trust and rely on by providing thorough legal support until resolution,” he said.[View full article] ‘Accurately from the initial diagnosis’...Daeryun differentiates legal services with the motto of ‘General Legal Hospital’ (Go here) 2026-05-10T05:42:59.488Z https://www.daeryunlaw.com/en/broadcast/4923 The Labor Relations Commission ruled that if a worker commits an illegal act by mistake, it cannot be considered a serious misconduct. According to the legal community on the 2nd, the Jeonnam Regional Labor Relations Commission ruled in February in a lawsuit filed by a man in his 40s, A, a man in his 40s, against transportation company B for relief from unfair dismissal. It also ordered the company to reinstate Mr. A and pay him the wages he did not receive during the period of dismissal. Last year, Mr. A received about 100,000 in-house support funds for people assigned to non-affiliated areas. He was notified of dismissal for receiving 20 million won illegally. The company claimed that Mr. A, who had been separated from his family after his appointment, had received support money without informing the company even though he had moved back in with his children. However, Mr. A refuted that he only had his children stay at his home while sharing child care with his spouse and that he had no intention of embezzlement. He also returned all the illegally received money, and compared to the suspension in similar cases in the past, this was excessive. He emphasized that the disposition was taken. The committee ruled in favor of Mr. A. “There is no objective data to show that the worker did not live with his family, so the act of illegal receipt is recognized.” It said, “There is no clearly defined standard for ‘living with family’, which is the reason for loss of subsidy eligibility, so it cannot be said that workers are clearly aware of the standard.” It went on to say, “It is difficult to say that it was carried out with malice because workers may have misunderstood the criteria for the reason for loss and judged it differently.” “The full amount has been recovered, and it is inconsistent with the disposition made in similar cases,” he said, explaining that it constitutes an unfair dismissal. Lee Ki-eun, a lawyer at Daeryun Law Firm on Mr. A’s side, said, “In order for a worker to be dismissed, there must be an act of misconduct on the part of the employee that makes it impossible for the employee to continue the employment relationship according to social norms. In Mr. A’s case, it is difficult to say that an unlawful act of misconduct exists because he had his children stay at home for a certain period of time and took care of them.” Reporter Jeong Eui-jin (jej88@ikbc.co.kr)[View full article] Dismissal of workers who illegally received in-house subsidies...Labor Committee's 'unfair dismissal' (link) 2026-05-13T03:20:07.110Z https://www.daeryunlaw.com/en/broadcast/4921 Employee suspected of accessing portal mailbox without permission: “I only checked the list for recruitment purposes” Court: “Information shared… no intention” A person in his 20s who was indicted on charges of logging into another person’s account without permission and checking e-mail was found not guilty. On February 20, the Ulsan District Court found Mr. A, a teacher at a children’s center who had been put on trial on charges of violating the Information and Communications Network Act, not guilty. In 2021, Mr. A accessed the portal site account of Mr. B, the representative of the children’s center where he worked, without permission. He was accused of logging in and viewing the email list. At the time, Mr. A was found to have committed this crime in response to a colleague's request to check the list of applicants during the process of recruiting new employees. Mr. A denied the charge. The reason was that the CEO shared the account with employees for work reasons, and the account was set to auto-login, so anyone could access it. At the same time, he emphasized that he only checked recruitment-related emails and did not read personal emails. The court ruled that Mr. A was not guilty. The court ruled, “The victim shared her ID and password with employees, including the defendant,” and “There was no intention that the defendant did not have legitimate authority to access the email or broke into the account by exceeding the permitted authority.” He continued, “He only accessed the email and checked the list, but did not click on a specific email, so it cannot be said that he found out the contents.” He added, “Whether or not the resume was received cannot be considered a matter to be kept confidential.” Daeryun Law Firm, which represented Mr. A. Attorney Jeon Hyeon-joo explained, “The crime of detecting contents of electronic records, etc., is established when the contents of electronic records that have become secret devices are discovered using technical means,” adding, “In this case, the court accepted that a crime cannot be established because the email was accessed while automatically logged in without any method such as hacking.” Digital Content Team[View full article] ‘Log in to main account and view email’ employee… Law: Not guilty as it is not an infringement of secrets (Shortcut) 2026-05-13T14:41:36.286Z https://www.daeryunlaw.com/en/broadcast/4920 Daeryun Law Firm "Needs preemptive response" to the rehabilitation application for 'Balan', which led civil and criminal lawsuits during the Timeef incident. Daeryun Law Firm announced on the 2nd that it has formed a legal support task force (TF) to support victims in response to the rehabilitation application for the online luxury goods trading platform 'Balan'. Through this TF, Daeryun plans to develop a multifaceted legal response, including relief for damage to consumers and sellers, analysis of the platform's fund management structure, review of criminal liability, and class action lawsuits. The TF will involve more than 10 professionals including lawyers, accountants, tax accountants, and IT legal experts from the Daeryun Corporate Legal Group. Regarding the launch of this TF, attorney Daeryun Son Gye-jun, who is in charge of the head of the corporate legal group, said, “The Balan incident is an example that shows the structural risks that can occur in a typical consumer trust-based platform,” and emphasized, “It is necessary to carefully examine complex legal issues such as the platform’s fund management method and the illegality of its terms and conditions beyond the simple refund issue.” The TF is headed by Attorney Son, who is an expert in the field of corporate law and taxation and has also played an active role in the ‘Tmon and WeMakePrice (TimePrice) incidents.’ Attorney Shin Jong-su joined. In addition, △Attorney Bang In-tae, a labor lawyer and corporate litigation expert registered with the Korean Bar Association, △Attorney Won-sang Kim, a corporate rehabilitation and bankruptcy expert with experience participating in the Korea Pizza Hut lawsuit, △Attorney Min-hee Ji, a former in-house lawyer with extensive experience in fair trade and patents, △Attorney Jeong Sang-hyeok, a human resources and labor expert who has served as a member of deliberation and investigation committees for numerous companies, △An investigation by the Fair Trade Commission, etc. Attorney Hee-gon Cho, who has extensive experience in corporate litigation and consulting, △ Attorney Seo-young Kim, who has handled numerous rehabilitation and bankruptcy cases as an insolvency lawyer registered with the Korean Bar Association, and △ Attorney Young-jae Nam, a former head of legal affairs at a POSCO Group affiliate, will join the task force. In addition, △ Labor attorney Seo-hye Nam, who has provided labor law advice to numerous companies including IT, service, and distribution, △ Many large corporations and public institutions. Accountant Park Won-chan, who has experience conducting accounting audits, will take a comprehensive response by reviewing areas such as accounting and labor. Daeryun has led civil and criminal lawsuits on behalf of sellers who suffered damage from non-payment of settlement payments during the ‘Timeef Incident’ last year. At the time, Daeryun received attention for his proactive response, including suing Q10 Group executives on charges of fraud and breach of trust. Daeryun believes that this Balan incident also has similar structural problems and believes that a preemptive response is needed. Through this TF, Daeryun plans to review not only the problem of delayed refunds by consumers, but also the problem of unsettled payments by sellers, credit card cancellation refusals, and violations of terms and conditions, as well as all other issues. In addition, we plan to carry out group response procedures in parallel depending on whether the damage spreads. Attorney Son said, “Following the Timeef incident, the Balan incident occurred, and the unclear settlement system and fund management method of e-commerce platforms is emerging as a major problem.” He added, “Through this TF, we will not only provide practical legal assistance to the victims, but will also strive to prepare institutional improvement measures for the overall platform industry based on advice from Daeryun experts.” Meanwhile, Balan attracted investment funds on the 31st of last month. Due to setbacks and a liquidity crunch, the company applied for corporate rehabilitation procedures at the Seoul Rehabilitation Court. As a result, problems with settlement delays occurred, raising concerns that the Timef incident might be repeated. Balan said, “No financial damage has occurred to general consumers, and the amount of unpaid commercial receivables is less than Balan’s monthly transaction amount,” and announced that it would attract a buyer before rehabilitation approval and repay the full amount of unpaid receivables.

There was a case in which a soldier who was handed over to the military prosecutors on charges of gossiping about a superior in the presence of fellow soldiers was not indicted. On March 7, the Army Prosecutor's Office responded to Soldier A, who was accused of defaming and defaming his superiors. It was confirmed that the indictment was dismissed due to insufficient evidence. In November 2024, while five fellow soldiers were listening, Soldier A said to his superiors in the same unit, "It seems like they are taking out their brains even when they give them vacation. (The victims) are all mentally insane." He also said to the administrative supply officer, "I am sick, but they do not show me the hospital. Since I did not receive treatment, I will report it under the medical law," and was accused of openly revealing false information. During the investigation, Soldier A argued that the charges were not established, emphasizing, “It was an extremely personal phone call with my mother, and the act did not have a performance nature, so it does not amount to an insult to a superior.” The military prosecutor who investigated this case said, “The witnesses gave very specific statements about the situation at the time of the suspect’s speech, so it is acknowledged that the suspect spoke as if he was the suspect,” and added, “The suspect used somewhat extreme expressions in the phone call with his mother, but that did not affect the social value of the victims.” “It is difficult to say that it constitutes an insulting remark that would lower the evaluation,” and a non-indictment was decided against Soldier A. Attorney Jeon Hyo-cheol of the Daeryun Law Firm, who represented the suspect Soldier A in this case, said, “According to the Supreme Court ruling, whether it constitutes an insult as an insult must be strictly judged in light of objective circumstances such as the relationship between the parties, the circumstances leading to the expression, the method of expression, and the situation at the time, and whether it is an expression that can infringe on the other party’s external reputation.” “It is not based on emotions,” he explained. Attorney Jeon Hyo-cheol continued, “Soldier A only used some exaggerated expressions while complaining to his mother that he did not receive as much leave as expected, and it was not a lie that he was injured while working and needed treatment. Therefore, it cannot be seen that there was an intention to damage the victim’s reputation, so it was concluded that there was no charge.” Reporter Son Dong-wook, Lawleader, twson@lawleader.co.kr A soldier was sent for gossiping about his superiors in front of fellow soldiers...Military prosecutors ‘not indicted’ (Shortcut) 2026-04-23T00:18:48.702Z https://www.daeryunlaw.com/en/broadcast/4906 Last year, the number of industrial accident compensation applications and approvals was the highest in nearly 10 years. According to the Korea Workers' Compensation and Welfare Service's status of industrial accident applications and approvals by year (2015-2024), the number of industrial accident applications last year was 173,603, a 6.5% increase from the previous year. The number of approvals also reached 151,753, the highest in 10 years. Industrial Accident Compensation Insurance is a system in which the Korea Workers' Compensation and Welfare Service pays insurance benefits when a worker suffers an accident while working. If there is a connection between work and the accident, payment is made and is mainly divided into medical expenses, temporary absence benefits, disability benefits, and survivors' benefits. This has the nature of 'no fault liability', so compensation is provided regardless of the liability, such as the company's negligence in management or the worker's negligence. In addition to industrial accident compensation, another way to receive compensation is through industrial accident compensation, a civil lawsuit. Unlike industrial accident compensation, industrial accident compensation is when the court orders the company to compensate for an accident caused by the employer's negligence or intent. Industrial accident compensation can be claimed differently depending on active, passive, and mental damage. First, active damages include medical expenses used prior to industrial accident treatment and medical expenses that will be used in the future. Passive damages include lost income and severance pay, and mental damages refer to compensation for the worker's mental suffering caused by the accident. The most important point here is the employer's negligence. Employers have an obligation under the employment contract to take necessary measures to ensure that workers can work safely. If an accident occurs due to the employer's negligence in improving safety devices or working conditions, the amount of compensation is determined in proportion to the negligence. Proof of this must be provided by the worker claiming compensation. However, even if the employer is at fault, it is rare for this to be readily acknowledged. In one of the cases I was actually responsible for, there was a case where a restaurant worker filed a lawsuit against the management company. At the time, the worker claimed that he fell due to moisture left on the floor and seriously injured his knee, but the company denied any connection to work, saying that the worker suffered the injury while going to the bathroom. Accordingly, the author emphasized that time to resolve basic physiological phenomena is included in work hours. In addition, the company was able to receive damages by expressing the fact that it had not taken any special measures to prevent slipping in the workplace. In order to successfully claim compensation for industrial accidents, it is necessary to prove that the employer was negligent by securing the circumstances of the accident and evidence. However, unlike compensation under industrial accident insurance, civil lawsuits have complicated procedures, and disaster standards may be applied differently for each case. Therefore, it is necessary to approach it carefully and with the help of experts.

Although he injured the other student during a physical fight with an upper-class student, it was recognized as self-defense. The Suwon Family Court announced in January that it had decided not to indict Mr. A (13), who was put on trial on charges of insult and injury. Person A is accused of using violence against Person B, who was assigned to the same dormitory at an overseas education camp in February of last year. The conflict between the two began during a social game that was part of the camp program. Group B claimed that other students, including Group A, were responsible for his continued defeat. Boy A refuted, saying, “I have never taken any shortcuts,” and eventually a physical fight broke out. As a result, Group A suffered a broken nose, and Group B suffered an injury to his jaw that required two weeks of treatment. At the trial, Group A explained, "Group B swore at Group A and made threatening gestures as if he was trying to hit him several times. He used violence in defense to escape aggressive behavior." At the same time, he emphasized, "Group B's one-sided verbal abuse and assault were the cause of this incident, and he was forced to return to Korea immediately after the incident." The court also ruled that A's actions were unintentional and decided to disqualify him. Lawyer Jang Eun-min of Daeryun Law Firm, who represented A, said, "B had filed a criminal complaint at the same time as reporting the school violence, and in this case, the perpetrator and the victim were reversed." He said, "The School Violence Response Committee (School Violence Committee) only acknowledged the assault by the two people and decided to take action against A, but we filed an administrative lawsuit and received a decision to cancel." He added, "As a result of the unilateral assault by B, an upperclassman, A was diagnosed with a fractured nose bone. The School Violence Committee also recognized A's actions as self-defense, and based on this, we were able to prove that the victim in this case was A, not B." Hwang Jeong-won added.

The Jeonju District Court recently ruled in favor of the plaintiff in a facility demolition and land handover lawsuit filed against Jeonju City by Mr. A, a resident of a townhouse. Mr. A filed a civil complaint with Jeonju City in 2022 requesting that the public sewage pipe installed within the residential land and the fence protecting it be moved and installed. This facility is a sewer pipe that is not used by the residents of the townhouse where Mr. A lives, because it interfered with vehicle traffic and building repair work. However, the city responded that relocation was difficult because there were no national or public lands nearby. Mr. A then asked the city to suggest alternatives, such as opening a vehicle entrance and exit road. However, as the city took no action, Mr. A filed a lawsuit. During the trial, the city claimed that the facilities were installed for safety reasons when the townhouse was built. At the same time, he emphasized that if the city had installed this facility, there would have been consent from the owners of the townhouses. However, the court ruled in favor of Mr. A, saying, "The sewer pipe in question is being used to treat sewage from buildings near the townhouse where Mr. A lives, and the townhouse is treating sewage by installing a separate septic tank. There is no data showing that the consent of the townhouse owners was obtained or compensation was paid when installing the sewer pipes and fences." The court also ruled in favor of Mr. A. “According to the Sewerage Act, the city is responsible for managing sewer pipes. It is reasonable to view that the city, which is responsible for managing sewer pipes, installed the facility without permission and occupied the land without the consent of the townhouse owners who own the land, so it has an obligation to demolish the facility and hand over the land,” the ruling said. Mr. A’s legal representative, Jeong Woo-hyung, an attorney at Daeryun Law Firm, said, “The Sewerage Act provides for the local government to take responsibility for cases where a local government uses someone else’s land when installing a public sewer pipe. “It stipulates compensation, and if Mr. A agreed to the installation as claimed by the local government, appropriate compensation should have been provided, but such evidence did not exist.” Reporter Jeong Cheol-wook[View full article] Local government failed to provide an alternative to the request for relocation of public facilities to private land...

The victim complained of extreme stress. A man in his 50s was sentenced to prison for threatening and even assaulting his mistress for several years after she notified him of a breakup. On the 11th of last month, the Jeju District Court sentenced Mr. A (53), who was indicted on charges of injury, etc., to one year in prison. Mr. A was indicted on charges of hitting his face several times in anger at the request for a breakup from his mistress B around September 2020. At the time, it was revealed that Mr. A committed this act while fighting over his affair. Afterwards, Mr. A went to the store run by Mr. B and made a fuss by breaking the door lock and yelling. In addition, it was confirmed that Mr. A broke into Mr. B's vehicle without permission, damaged the black box, stole the memory chip, and used a location tracking app to monitor his private life. At the trial, Mr. A denied most of the crimes, saying, "It is unfair because there are many things that are different from the facts." The court sentenced Mr. A to prison based on the facts of the damage. The court ruled, “The defendant is complaining of injustice from the investigative agency to the court, but looking at the submitted evidence, he is judged guilty.” “There is no reflection or common sense explanation from the defendant, and the motive for the crime and the surrounding circumstances are very bad.” Attorney Park Yong-du of Daeryun Law Firm, who is Mr. B’s legal representative, said, “Mr. B has already tried to escape from Mr. A several times, but he was bound to fail every time.” “The relationship continued through gaslighting (psychological control),” he said. “Mr. B, who suffered physical, mental, and property damage from Mr. A, is complaining of pain to the extent that it is difficult to live his daily life. As a result of proving the damage on behalf of Mr. B, the perpetrator was able to be severely punished.” Reporter Kim Jong-cheol (jckim99@sportsseoul.com)[View full article] Man in his 50s sentenced to prison for assaulting and threatening a mistress who asked for a breakup (link) 2026-05-04T12:52:54.347Z https://www.daeryunlaw.com/en/broadcast/4893 Attorney Choi Yoon-jeong of Daeryun Medical Pharmaceutical Group In this contribution, we will look at the reporting obligations and expenditure report preparation obligations of pharmaceutical sales promotion operators (CSOs) based on the revised Pharmaceutical Affairs Act. The Pharmaceutical Affairs Act defines a pharmaceutical promotion business operator as “a person who has received product approval for a drug, an importer, or a drug wholesaler who is entrusted with the sales promotion work of a drug and wishes to perform it” and “a person who is re-entrusted and intends to perform the entrusted sales promotion work,” and Article 46-2 of the same Act imposes reporting obligations. In addition, pharmaceutical companies are also prohibited from entrusting sales promotion work to undeclared sales promotion operators. In addition, the Pharmaceutical Affairs Act contains provisions that, in principle, prohibit drug promotion business operators from providing economic benefits to pharmacists, oriental pharmacists, pharmacy workers, medical personnel, medical institution founders, and medical institution workers. However, there are also regulations regarding economic benefits that are permitted as exceptions, and based on this, an expenditure report must be prepared for the economic benefits provided. The expenditure report preparation system was introduced around 2018, but at that time, pharmaceutical sales promotion operators were not included as subjects of expenditure report preparation obligations. As a result, problems began to be raised about drug promotion businesses that provide unauthorized economic benefits. Problems surrounding the provision of illegal profits have become more serious over the years, and as a result, pharmaceutical sales promotion companies have also been subject to the obligation to prepare expenditure reports. Although there is some difference in the timing when the obligation to report and prepare expenditure reports was introduced, the relevant systems are currently in effect, so drug promotion salespeople must comply with the above obligations. If violated, administrative action or even criminal punishment may be imposed in accordance with the provisions of the Pharmaceutical Affairs Act. Therefore, in order to avoid disadvantages, you must check the information on how to report sales promotions, reasons for disqualification, and benefits that can be provided, as stipulated in the Pharmaceutical Affairs Act and the Enforcement Rules of the Pharmaceutical Affairs Act. In particular, in the case of permissible economic benefits, the subject, target, and scope are defined differently for each item, so it is necessary to confirm exactly what economic benefits are allowed to be provided. In addition, the Ministry of Health and Welfare not only conducts a fact-finding survey on expenditure reports prepared by pharmaceutical sales promotion operators, but also discloses all survey results and submitted reports. Additionally, the Ministry of Health and Welfare may request submission of supporting data for the above expenditure report when necessary. In light of this, pharmaceutical sales promotion businesses should also be aware of the obligation to keep related books and supporting data for a certain period of time.[View full article] [Contribution] Pharmaceutical sales promotion business report-Regarding the obligation to prepare an expenditure report (Shortcut) 2026-05-11T06:53:12.300Z https://www.daeryunlaw.com/en/broadcast/4891 Daeryun Law Firm, which provides assistance such as analyzing cosmetics market regulations and reviewing laws for entering overseas corporations, announced that it has signed a business agreement (MOU) with cosmetics company Bonne Co., Ltd. The signing ceremony was held in the new conference room at Daeryun Law Firm's headquarters on the 24th, and key officials including Daeryun CEO Kim Kuk-il, attorney Jeong Jae-kwon, Bonne Vice President Nam Byeong-soo, and Deputy General Manager Jo Joon-won attended.

This is evaluated as the first major reform in 75 years since the enactment of the Inheritance Tax Act in 1950. The reform plan was promoted to △ alleviate the burden of excessive progressive taxation △ improve the effectiveness of deductions △ rationalize the scope of taxation. The key is to tax individual heirs only on the property they actually inherited. In the case of the existing estate tax, the tax was levied based on the entire inherited property of the deceased (deceased person). On the other hand, in the case of inheritance acquisition tax, equity is improved because each heir is taxed according to the property acquired. For example, let's imagine that 1.5 billion won is passed on to three children in equal amounts of 500 million won each. As it stands, the three children must jointly pay inheritance tax on 240 million won. On the other hand, if taxation is made with the revised estate acquisition tax, the basic deduction is applied to the '500 million won' each of the three people will receive, rather than the total inheritance amount of '1.5 billion won', so the three heirs will inherit the full 500 million won each without separate inheritance tax. This change system starts from drastically lowering the tax burden on the majority by reducing the obligation to jointly pay taxes. To this end, it must be reorganized with a focus on ‘necessary systems’. The basic tax credit system is maintained as is to minimize market confusion and shock caused by system conversion. It is designed to enable fairer and more reasonable taxation in the mid- to long-term. Also worth noting is the strengthening of the effectiveness of the personal exemption system. Families with multiple direct children, those with assets worth 500 to 300 million won, and heirs with a high proportion of financial assets are expected to be the biggest beneficiaries. This is because the basic deduction for children has been adjusted to reflect actual conditions, and the system has been supplemented so that spouses can receive deduction benefits within the scope of their actual inherited assets. As a result, the key is to ensure that the inheritance tax burden does not substantially arise when assets below a certain standard are transferred to family members. For example, if you inherit 1 billion won to your spouse and 500 million won to your children, the entire amount can be transferred without tax. During inheritance-related consultations, many inquiries are received from corporate officials. This is because the scale of inheritance is significant and the system is complex. In this amendment, the existing material deduction system, such as family business inheritance deduction, financial property deduction, and cohabitation housing inheritance deduction, is maintained. This decision takes into account the tax burden on small and medium-sized businesses that have been operating for a long time or holders of real assets, and appears to be aimed at ensuring that the economic foundation is not shaken during the system transition process. Measures to increase tax payment convenience are also being taken. Even if the division of inherited property is not completed within the reporting deadline, a method of postponing the division deadline for up to 9 months and allowing revision of the tax amount according to the division details confirmed within that period is being considered. This is a reasonable improvement plan considering cases in which discussions on division of inherited property are delayed in reality. Attorney Ja-young Yoon of Daeryun Law Firm said, “In addition, measures to respond to the possibility of tax avoidance have also been included,” adding, “Various complementary measures will be prepared, such as extending the exclusion period for imposition of false division (the period during which national or local taxes must be exercised) from the current 10 years to 15 years and establishing a special case for comparative taxation for bypass inheritance. In particular, “It is expected that taxation methods will be overhauled for indirect inheritance using for-profit corporations, so it is necessary to proceed with the above matters with legal assistance from tax and inheritance experts.” Global Epic CP Lee Soo-hwan / lsh@globalepic.co.kr Inheritance tax ‘major surgery’ after 75 years… The biggest beneficiary is (link) 2026-05-13T22:27:48.346Z https://www.daeryunlaw.com/en/broadcast/4885 The CEO of an electronic device company who was sued by a rival company for selling a recorder that was visually similar to a patented ballpoint recorder was cleared of the charges. Incheon Gyeyang Police Station recently decided not to prosecute Mr. A, in his 30s, who was accused of violating the patent law. Mr. A was accused of selling a product similar to the recorder for which Company B applied for a patent last year. Company B sent a proof of content to Mr. A to stop selling the recorder or pay a license fee, but when Mr. A did not respond, it sued for violation of patent law. Mr. A completely denied the charges, saying that the recorder he was selling was designed in consultation with a patent attorney from the development stage to prevent legal disputes and patent infringement. At the same time, he argued, "Company B's patent is for the basic structure, not a special technical element, so the claim of violation of the patent law does not stand. If patent infringement is recognized based on wording and some elements, technological development will be hindered in all industries." The police judged infringement under the patent law only on the technical elements specified in the claims, and Company B's complaint was deemed to be outside of these patent rights. Mr. A's legal representative, Attorney Cho Min-woo of Daeryun Law Firm, said, "According to the Supreme Court precedent, “The patent right is protected as a whole combining the listed components,” he explained. “Because each component is not protected separately, Company B’s claim does not comply with the basic principles of patent law.” He also said, “Although the two products look similar to the naked eye, there are differences in detailed technologies such as the USB-C type, elastic bias operation plate, and PCB protective film. Mr. A’s product does not fall within the rights claimed by Company B, and we were cleared of the charges by objectively proving this.” Reporter Jeong Cheol-wook[View full article] Representative of electronics company accused of patent infringement on ballpoint recorder, acquitted...

Former Chief Prosecutor Hwang is a person known as a ‘strong case’ for taking on various powerful cases, including the case of Cho Hee-pal, a rare fraud convict. Daeryun announced on the 28th that it plans to further strengthen its criminal case capabilities through the recruitment of Attorney Hwang. After being appointed as a prosecutor at the Changwon District Prosecutors’ Office, Attorney Hwang After working at Incheon District Prosecutors' Office and Cheongju District Prosecutors' Office, he served as deputy chief prosecutor at Seoul Northern District Prosecutors' Office and chief prosecutor at Daegu District Prosecutors' Office and Seoul Central District Prosecutors' Office. With over 25 years of legal experience, he was in charge of the so-called ‘Cho Hee-pal case’, which is considered the largest multi-level case in Korea, while working at the Daegu District Prosecutors’ Office. He, who has mainly handled violent cases, was recognized for his expertise and was registered as a criminal law lawyer by the Korean Bar Association. In addition, when he worked at the Seoul Central District Prosecutors' Office in 2016, he received attention for helping an elderly person suffering from dementia to be designated a guardian. At the time, the problem was not resolved due to the lack of guidelines within the relevant organizations, but thanks to his efforts, the process was able to be completed quickly. In particular, this is significant as it is the first case in which the court accepted the prosecution's request for an adult guardianship system after the enforcement of the revised Civil Act. Attorney Hwang Jong-geun said, "I have carried out cases honestly and uprightly with the motto 'Do not deceive yourself,'" and added, "I believe that the best results will come if you approach any case strategically from start to finish. Based on my experience in handling various cases, I will provide optimal legal services to my clients." “With the recruitment of Attorney Hwang, who has been in charge of the case, we expect to be able to further enhance our criminal case capabilities, including investigation and response,” he said. “Daeryun plans to continue recruiting experts in each field to provide high-quality legal services in the future.” Meanwhile, Daeryun, which provides specialized legal services with specialized groups in each field, ranked 9th in terms of sales in the law firm industry last year and joined the ranks of large law firms.

An employee who was put on trial on charges of disclosing a co-worker's abortion without consent was found not guilty in the first trial and also in the appeals court. On the 7th of last month, the Chuncheon District Court held an appellate sentencing hearing for Ms. A, a woman in her 20s who was indicted on charges of defamation and acquitted in the first trial, and the original trial and They were both found not guilty. In 2024, during an argument with fellow employee B, Mr. A was accused of defamation by saying that B had had an abortion in the past in front of other employees. Mr. A acknowledged all of his actions but argued that the crime of defamation did not apply. This is because the employee who heard the remarks at the time maintained a close relationship with Mr. B, so there was no possibility of spreading the contents to a third party. The prosecution requested a summary order of a fine of 500,000 won from Mr. A. However, the court referred this to a formal trial, and he was found not guilty in the first trial. The first trial court explained, “The employee who heard the argument between the two people maintained a close relationship with the victim,” and “The defendant may not have been aware that his remarks could be spread to others through this employee.” He added, “Considering the fact that the employee in question did not spread the word to a third party, it is difficult to say that the defendant’s remarks were performance-based and intentional.” The prosecution, which was dissatisfied with this, filed an appeal, but it was dismissed in the second trial. The appellate court also upheld the original judgment, saying, “It is difficult to conclude that the defendant was aware that the remarks would be spread through the employee in question.” Attorney Gil Se-cheol of Daeryun Law Firm, representing Mr. A, said, “In defamation cases, when performance is acknowledged on the grounds of the possibility of spread, an unwritten intention to act despite knowing the risk of spread is necessary.” He added, “Mr. He said, “Because we did not recognize that it could be spread, the intention to fail to write was not established.” Digital Content Team[View full article] Employee accused of defamation by saying “I had an abortion”… ‘Not guilty’ in the appeal trial (Shortcut) 2026-05-11T07:20:47.166Z https://www.daeryunlaw.com/en/broadcast/4873 These days, the ‘LIBRA incident’ is one of the biggest topics in the coin industry. There are even rumors that this incident is causing a chill in the coin market again. Immediately after the launch of the Libra Mimcoin* on February 14, Argentine President Javier Millais publicly supported Libra on his social media. Immediately after Millay's post, the price of Libra seemed to soar, but it plummeted shortly thereafter. It was a sharp drop of 94% from the highest price. As expected, I didn't buy it by listening to acquaintances... *Meme coin: A cryptocurrency created by being inspired by Internet memes or trends, the price of which fluctuates based on community and trends rather than technical value. In the coin industry, there are suspicions of insider trading over the Libra incident. Hayden Davis, CEO of Kelsier Ventures, an investment company that led the Libra project, said immediately after the incident regarding suspicions of insider trading, "Meme coin insider trading is illegal. No (Insider trading in memecoins is not illegal, and in fact, all KOLs around the world make money that way),” he said, intensifying the controversy. Hayden Davis is not necessarily wrong in saying this, and it is still in a gray area of uncertainty as to whether memecoins are subject to insider trading regulations. In the United States, when the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) classifies assets as securities, insider trading is regulated under the Securities Act, so there is no question of whether memecoins are securities. There can be discussion. Related controversies have already continued through the 'Ripple Incident' and 'Terraform Labs Incident'. If Korean law is applied, MEMCOIN will be defined as a 'virtual asset' under the Virtual Asset User Protection Act, making insider trading illegal. According to the Virtual Asset User Protection Act, 'virtual asset' refers to an electronic token that has 'economic value' and can be traded or transferred electronically. Non-fungible electronic tokens, such as NFTs, that are mainly for collection are excluded from virtual assets, but can be recognized as virtual assets if they can be used as a means of payment for specific goods or services. Hayden Davis emphasized that unlike other virtual currencies, meme coins do not have 'practicality'. In reality, meme coins have significantly lower practicality and usability and are mainly used for speculation, investment, or participation in specific communities. Therefore, some believe that since meme coins are rarely used as currency, they are excluded from virtual assets like NFTs, which are for collection purposes. However, the 'economic value' mentioned in the Virtual Asset User Protection Act cannot necessarily be seen as including practicality, and in fact, even if it is a meme coin, some such as Dogecoin are used as a payment method in online shopping malls or for donation activities. In other words, as long as it is a 'coin', the practicality itself exists, even if the level may be low. In addition, as long as MEMCOIN is actively circulated in the coin market for investment purposes, it is clear that it is a virtual asset with economic value according to the Virtual Asset User Protection Act. MEMCOIN is a new type of asset that did not exist in the existing financial market. In a situation where even existing cryptocurrencies have not established a clear position in the traditional financial market, the boundaries of Memcoin are even more ambiguous. In this situation, Hayden Davis claimed that "Memcoin is 'impractical'" and "insider trading is allowed," sparking discussion about the nature of Memcoin. In many ways, the Libra scandal suggests important issues in how the crypto market operates and the direction of regulation, and will serve as another opportunity for future market changes. And in the ever-changing virtual currency market, I once again reminded myself that investing based solely on what others say can be quite risky.[View full article] [Column] Libra incident, once again drawing attention to the uniqueness of the coin market (Go here) 2026-05-04T13:40:23.391Z https://www.daeryunlaw.com/en/broadcast/4871 One of the most notable online promotional tools in the lawyer industry these days is ‘CPC (Cost Per Click)’ advertising. The cost is calculated based on the number of times a customer clicks on an ad, and the unit price is higher for popular keywords with higher search volume. Advertisers engage in fierce bidding competition to ensure that their advertisements are displayed at the top of search engines and advertising platforms. Lawyers also appear not to be free from competition. This is because advertising expenses are a key factor in accepting cases. The problem is that there is a high risk that these CPC advertisements will undermine the essence of legal services. As advertising competition intensifies, commercialization of the legal market accelerates, and as the cost burden increases, lawyers are likely to try to compensate by raising fees. In particular, the CPC unit price has been rising rapidly in the domestic legal market recently, and in the case of popular keywords with high search demand such as ‘divorce’ and ‘criminal litigation,’ the price per click is known to be around 100,000 won. Even if clicks are made just 500 times a day, advertising costs of 50 million won are spent. The structural problem of CPC advertising should not be overlooked. As it is a system that requires large amounts of advertising expenses to achieve top exposure, polarization surrounding advertising expenses can become extreme even within the lawyer industry. Lawyers who find it difficult to cover advertising costs ranging from at least several million won to up to hundreds of millions of won do not even have the opportunity to contact clients online. It is not only lawyers who are adversely affected. Users also continue to see advertisements from specific lawyers who have successfully bid on high prices, which can lead to problems with limited options. Therefore, I believe that certain regulations are needed in the current CPC advertising market. This is because we must prevent the lawyer advertising market from being reorganized around capital power. However, unilateral and unconditional regulations may infringe on the constitutional values ​​of freedom of expression and freedom of occupation, so they must be approached with caution. I think the most realistic solution at present is to have law firms that conduct CPC advertising form a self-regulatory council. This is a method of having people voluntarily create advertising-related guidelines and encourage them to comply with them. Daeryun Law Firm, to which the author belongs, is willing to participate if the Bar Association takes the lead in forming such a consultative body, and hopes that the Bar Association will suggest a better plan if there is one. With the development of information and communication technology, the expansion of the mobile environment, and the emergence of AI, the channels through which citizens use legal services are also diversifying as times change. In the lawyer industry, ‘online promotion’ is a trend of the times that is no longer difficult to deny. However, there is an important value that should never be forgotten. These are ‘publicness’ and ‘economic equity.’ It is time to begin close monitoring and autonomous regulation of the overheated CPC advertising market so that the burden of advertising costs is not passed on to clients.[View full article] [Contribution] ‘CPC advertising’ is overheating in the lawyer industry, raising concerns about damage to public nature (Click here) 2026-05-13T11:59:12.318Z https://www.daeryunlaw.com/en/broadcast/4869 While conflicts surrounding the poor construction of apartments and other apartment complexes continue to persist, the number of people suffering from defect problems appears to be increasing. In fact, according to the Ministry of Land, Infrastructure and Transport, the number of dispute cases related to defects in apartment complexes handled by the Defect Review and Dispute Mediation Committee under the Ministry of Land, Infrastructure and Transport increased from 3,954 cases in 2019 to 4,559 cases in 2023. In particular, the number of defect disputes handled last year (January to August) was 3,525, an increase of about 20% compared to the average year. Defects that frequently occur in our daily lives include water leaks, cracks, plumbing problems, and noise and vibration. In the case of ‘leakage’, which is an easily encountered defect, the main causes are insufficient waterproofing and poor curing of concrete. If waterproofing is not done properly or concrete curing is not done properly, cracks may occur due to temperature changes, drying shrinkage, etc., causing water leaks. Water leaks are highly likely to spread into secondary problems such as mold and wall cracks. ‘Cracks’ are cracks that occur in the exterior walls and floors of a building, and are typically caused by materials, design, construction, and structural exterior walls. If a crack occurs, caution is required as it can cause fatal damage to the building, such as material corrosion, structural defects, and reduced durability. In the case of piping for water supply, drainage, heating and cooling, and gas construction, poor construction and aging are cited as the main causes. When a problem occurs in the piping, it has a significant impact on the building, which can result in shortening the lifespan of the building. In addition, ‘noise and vibration’, so-called inter-floor noise, is the sound and shaking that exceeds the standard set by law, and is caused by construction site noise and vibration, traffic noise and vibration, etc. in addition to apartment inter-floor noise. Let's do it. Noise and vibration are pointed out as the biggest problems among construction defects because they cause direct damage to people's health, property, and the environment. In many cases, such daily construction defects lead to legal disputes. Usually, if you discover a defect in a newly built apartment, you should first report it to the management office and then request repairs. If no action is taken at this stage, it is necessary to discuss measures through a tenant meeting or go through the sub-committee dispute mediation and financial procedures. The problem is when no conclusion can be reached even here. In this case, a defect repair lawsuit must be filed to clearly determine the cause and responsibility. Accurate diagnosis and judgment must be made to determine whether there were any mistakes in construction, whether the construction was done according to the design drawings, whether it is in compliance with functional and safety regulations, and furthermore, whether there are any aesthetic problems. Kim Hyeong-jin, a lawyer at Daeryun Construction and Real Estate Law Firm, said, “One of the most important things in this stage of determining the cause is ‘construction appraisal.’ Usually, when a construction-related dispute arises, an appraisal is conducted, which is used to determine specialized issues that are difficult for judges to judge. “The purpose is to listen to the opinions of experts and use them as litigation materials. Here, the appraiser is selected based on professional knowledge and experience, and as this is a key process that determines the success or failure of the lawsuit, communication between the lawyer and the appraiser is very important. Therefore, the best way for parties involved in a construction dispute is to seek help from an expert and discuss compensation standards in the event of a dispute. “It can be said that it is a process,” he said.

The Daejeon District Prosecutors' Office was confirmed to have decided not to indict two people, including employee A, who were accused of violating the Unfair Competition Prevention and Trade Secret Protection Act (leakage of trade secrets overseas, etc.) and breach of trust due to insufficient evidence on January 23. They were not charged until 2022. They were accused of downloading over 20,000 trade secret files from the company they were working for, and later transferred to an overseas competitor and used the files, and were forwarded to the prosecution. The accuser's company claimed that after they announced their intention to resign, they received the data on their personal USB drive without justifiable reason and stole it outside. However, suspect A and others completely denied the charges. He countered by saying, “I only downloaded the file to follow work instructions for reviewing the data,” and claimed, “During this process, all USBs used were discarded for security reasons, so no data was leaked.” In addition, “I left the company six months after the download,” and emphasized, “At the time of receiving the data, there was absolutely no purpose for it to be used by a competitor.” The prosecutors who investigated this case decided that the charges were not admissible. Regarding the reason for non-indictment, the prosecution said, “It is acknowledged that Mr. A and others downloaded technical data files to a personal storage device and worked in the same position at a competitor company after leaving the company, but it is difficult to admit the charges based on these facts alone.” Also, “The files were not found on the laptops and mobile phones of the confiscated suspects.” Attorney Hwang Se-jeong of Daeryun Law Firm, who defended suspects A and others in this case, said, “For the charge of leaking trade secrets to be recognized, the data must be used or used abroad. “They had to leak it knowing that it was there,” he said, adding, “The employees downloaded it to perform their duties, and there was no evidence of the company they moved to using the data, so the charges do not stand.” Reporter Son Dong-wook (twson@lawleader.co.kr)[View full article] Employees who downloaded large amounts of company confidential information and transferred to competitors... Prosecutors ‘not indicted’ (link) 2026-05-13T12:03:41.887Z https://www.daeryunlaw.com/en/broadcast/4863 Recently, Korea's defense industry has stood out on the international stage based on its technological prowess and competitiveness. In 2024, Korea's defense exports amounted to approximately $9.5 billion, solidifying its position as the world's top 10 defense exporter. These achievements are the result of innovation and effort in the fields of the army, navy, and air force, and at the same time, they further highlight the need for legal support for entering the international market. Korea's K9 self-propelled howitzers account for more than 50% of the global self-propelled artillery market share and have been exported to 10 countries to date. In particular, it was adopted by major countries such as Poland, Finland, and Australia, proving its reliability on the battlefield. Through local production of engines, it has become possible to enter various markets such as the Middle East without approval from the German government, and such large-scale defense exports show that legal review, including contract performance guarantees, export control regulations, and technology transfer restrictions, is essential. However, in some countries, there have been cases where legal disputes have arisen during the arms delivery process after signing a contract, or the schedule has been disrupted due to delays in export permits. These problems can be prevented through thorough legal review and prior action in consideration of international norms. As the United States' strategy to keep China in check is in full swing, the expansion of its naval power is underway, and accordingly, Korean shipbuilders are participating in ship construction and maintenance projects through cooperation with allies. Korea possesses world-class warship and submarine construction technology, and the Republic of Korea Navy's Next-Generation Destroyer (KDDX) and Jang Bogo-III class submarine projects are receiving great interest in overseas markets. However, in the past, there was a case where a legal dispute arose over the scope of technology transfer and maintenance responsibility after a Korean shipbuilder signed a contract to build an overseas naval ship. This suggests that long-term legal response and careful review of the contract structure are essential due to the nature of defense contracts. In the air force field, the Korean fighter KF-21 was developed independently, proving the technological prowess of the aviation industry. The KF-21 is a state-of-the-art aircraft with some stealth features, and its main export targets are Southeast Asian and European countries. Although the export market is expected to expand in the future, international regulations regarding aircraft and related technology transfer are very strict. For example, some countries restrict certain key technologies, and even after an export agreement is signed, there is a risk that the deal will be disrupted by regulatory changes. Therefore, it is essential for defense companies to continuously monitor international export regulations and respond legally. As the defense industry expands into the international market, the importance of legal support is growing. The export of defense products overseas is not a simple transaction of technology, but is directly related to each country's military and diplomatic strategies, so international laws and trade regulations must be strictly observed. In addition, defense companies must prevent legal disputes that may arise in the process of establishing overseas partnerships and minimize legal risks that arise during contract conclusion and implementation. In conclusion, the global expansion of the Korean defense industry is the result of technological prowess and quality, but legal support is essential to make it sustainable. In order for defense companies to maintain continuous growth and competitiveness in the international market, professional legal assistance must be provided, and a systematic legal support environment needs to be created in preparation for future expansion of defense exports and increased international cooperation.

A life sentence inmate who was indicted for stabbing a fellow inmate with a weapon and sentenced to three years in prison in the first trial received a reduced sentence on appeal. According to the legal community on the 25th, the Busan District Court Criminal Appeal Division 3-2 (Chief Judge So-yeon Lee) overturned the original trial that sentenced A (in his 60s), who was indicted on special injury, to two years in prison at the sentencing hearing. According to the crime acknowledged by the court. Mr. A was sentenced to life imprisonment for murder by the Busan High Court in August 1989 and was serving a sentence in Busan Prison. At around 1 a.m. on May 13 last year, Mr. A made a sharp weapon by grinding the end of a plastic chopstick on the cement floor of a bathroom to stab fellow inmate B (60s), with whom he had a difficult relationship, at Busan Prison in Gangseo-gu, Busan. Subsequently, Mr. A is accused of stabbing Mr. B in the face several times with a weapon prepared in advance at a workshop in the prison at around 10:10 a.m. on the same day. As a result, Mr. B reportedly suffered injuries to his face that required two weeks of treatment. In October last year, the first trial court sentenced Mr. A to three years in prison. Afterwards, Mr. A filed an appeal on the grounds that the sentence in the first trial was too much. The appellate court said, "Mr. A has already been punished several times for violent crimes, and although he was sentenced to life imprisonment for murder and is serving a life sentence, he committed this crime again. However, considering all the sentencing factors, such as the fact that Mr. A admits to the crime in this case and the fact that the victim fortunately did not suffer fatal injuries, the original trial's sentence is unreasonable because it is too heavy." The sentence was commuted. What does an additional prison sentence mean to a defendant who was sentenced to life imprisonment like Mr. A? Attorney Kim Young-hyung of the Daeryun Law Firm explained, “If a life sentence inmate is sentenced to additional imprisonment, there is a very high possibility that he or she will be deprived of the opportunity for parole review,” adding, “Also, from a criminal policy perspective, it has the effect of facilitating the management of inmates through the disadvantage that if they harm someone or commit a crime in prison, they may receive an additional sentence and extend their sentence.” According to the criminal law, life imprisonment is Even sentenced inmates are eligible for parole if they serve more than 20 years. In fact, life-sentence prisoners who have committed accidental offenses or have extenuating circumstances and whose lives in prison are exemplary are often paroled.

Daeryun Law Firm announced that former National Tax Service Commissioner Kim Hyun-joon (currently Chairman of Yulhyun Tax Firm), Hong Dae-sik, Chairman of the Law School Council (Sogang University Law School Dean), and Kim Seong-jin, a standing audit committee member of the Korea Exchange, will join as non-registered directors of ‘Kinyeonbeop’. It was announced on the 25th. Human Relations Law is an incorporated association established with the purpose of helping underprivileged groups in legal blind spots and realizing public value such as donations and volunteer activities. The registration of the establishment of the corporation was completed on the 25th of last month, and former Prosecutor General Kim Oh-soo (currently the representative attorney of the Central N Southern Law Firm) was appointed as the chairman of the board. Former National Tax Service Commissioner Kim, who served as the director of the National Tax Service's tax collection legal department and planning coordinator, will support the corporation's operation, including transparent financial management and tax management, under the Personal Relationship Act. We also conduct research on related policies, such as tax relief for the socially disadvantaged and solving tax problems. Chairman Hong helps build an education system for future legal professionals, such as planning public interest law school programs through cooperation with educational institutions. Kim, a standing audit committee member who served as the head of the audit research department at the Board of Audit and Inspection and the public innovation deliberation officer at the Ministry of Strategy and Finance, provides advice in the economic field, including support for small business owners. Daeryun plans to develop NK Law into an independent and fair public interest corporation rather than being led by a specific law firm. In addition, we plan to actively recruit prominent figures with influence in various fields and grow it into a nationwide public interest corporation.

The court ruled that it was illegal to induce investment by guaranteeing high returns. According to the legal community on the 24th, the Seoul Central District Court ruled in favor of the plaintiff on January 17 in a lawsuit filed by electric construction company A against management consulting company B, requesting return of investment money. Previously, Company A was a consulting company in March 2023. I received financial counseling from Company B. Through this, Company B, which had become acquainted with Company A, urged me to invest, saying that it would provide various management consulting services free of charge. Afterwards, in April of the same year, the two companies set an investment repayment date and rate of return for the investment amount of 180 million won and signed an investment contract. However, it is known that Company B changed its attitude after the investment was paid. Initially, Company B paid profits for 6 months, but after that, not only the profits but also the principal for more than a year. It was confirmed that Company A had not returned the investment. It was revealed that Company B had delayed the return, citing various reasons despite several requests by Company A to return the investment. Accordingly, Company A filed a lawsuit requesting return of the investment. Company A argued that the entire principal should be returned, citing the fact that Company B did not fulfill the terms of the investment contract and illegally collected a large amount of investment money using high interest as bait. The court said, "Company B did not have the ability to keep the original agreement and made the investment. The ruling ruled that Company A should pay the full principal amount of the investment, considering that Company A suffered damages due to Company B's illegal actions. Yang Ki-yeon, a lawyer at Daeryun Law Firm who represented Company A, said, "An important issue in litigation for the return of investment is determining whether there were illegal parts in the investment process." “Phrases such as ‘investment contract’, ‘investment’, ‘investment operating period’, and ‘monthly dividend guaranteed rate of return’ were clearly stated,” he explained.

Construction company: “There was some negligence on the part of the workers.” The court said, “The construction company had a duty to inspect areas at risk of collapse in advance, but failed to do so.” A worker who was seriously injured after being buried in the dirt while working on a manhole filed a lawsuit for damages against the company and won. On January 22, the Chuncheon District Court ruled that A, a man in his 60s, should pay about 60 million won to the plaintiff in a lawsuit against construction company B for damages. In 2022, while working to drill a hole in a manhole at a construction site with a colleague, I suffered an accident when soil collapsed. As a result, Mr. A suffered serious injuries to his chest. Accordingly, Mr. A filed a lawsuit for damages, claiming that Company B did not fulfill its duty of care to prevent the accident. Company B countered that Mr. A was negligent. At the time of the accident, Mr. A was watching his colleague's drilling work and performing an assisting role, so he should have observed his duty of care by observing his surroundings in more detail. The court ruled in Mr. A's favor. The court said, “Employers must check for cracks or the risk of collapse when workers work in places where there is a risk of soil collapse,” and “Nevertheless, the defendant did not fulfill these obligations.” He added, “It is difficult to see the plaintiff’s negligence in causing the accident and expanding the damage,” and added, “It is the responsibility to compensate the plaintiff for the damages.” Lee Ji-yeon, an attorney at Daeryun Law Firm who represented Mr. A, said, “In order to be recognized for damages due to an industrial accident, the employer must “We must prove that the accident occurred due to intent or negligence and the causal relationship,” he explained. “In this case, we were able to prove Company B’s negligence by emphasizing that the accident occurred because the company failed to take safety measures, such as installing a safety net or placing a manager on the manhole.” Reporter Shin Jae-yu (wayjay@sportsseoul.com)[View full article] A worker suffered an industrial accident in a manhole...

On January 23, the Seoul Northern District Court sentenced Mr. A, an office worker in his 60s, to eight months in prison and two years of probation on charges of fraud and embezzlement on the job. The court also ordered Mr. A to perform 80 hours of community service. While working as a superintendent at a construction site in 2023, Mr. A was indicted on charges of stealing company money by registering people who did not actually join the company in the company system, collecting labor costs, and falsely claiming meal allowances. In addition, he was also accused of embezzling about 20 million won by arbitrarily selling company products and embezzling cash. Mr. A admitted to all charges. However, complaints were raised on site because the company set wages lower than average, and it was claimed that the company falsely registered manpower to resolve this problem. It was also explained that the false meal claim was a response to the company's sudden non-payment of transportation expenses. In addition, he said that he sold the company's products according to the instructions of the deputy director, and that he distributed all the money he received from disposing of them to the workers. Regarding this, the court said, "The amount of money that the defendant swindled and embezzled is relatively large," but explained the reason for the suspended sentence, saying, "Most of the acquired money was used to pay salaries to field workers, and it appears that the personal profits he took were relatively small." He then explained the reason for sentencing, saying, “The defendant has reflected on and acknowledged all of his crimes, and we have taken into consideration the fact that he made a deposit for the victim.” Yang Ki-yeon, a lawyer at Daeryun Law Firm, who represented Mr. A, said, “If he did not consume or retain most of the proceeds of the crime, it is grounds for a reduction in the sentence for fraud.” He added, “It was recognized that most of the proceeds from Mr. A’s crimes were not used for personal purposes, so he was able to receive a suspended sentence.” Digital Content Team[View full article] Field manager who stole company money to pay salaries... Law ‘Probation of Execution’ Sentence (Shortcut) 2026-05-12T11:41:58.587Z https://www.daeryunlaw.com/en/broadcast/4841 The court ruled that if the insurance agent interfered with the notification of medical history at the time of signing the contract, the contract cannot be terminated for this reason. According to the legal community on the 20th, the Seoul Central District Court ruled in favor of the plaintiff in the insurance payment lawsuit filed by Mr. A, a man in his 50s, against the insurance company on January 21. Mr. A signed an insurance contract through insurance agent B in 2023. Afterwards, Mr. A, who received hospital treatment for myocardial infarction, claimed related insurance money. However, the insurance company The side refused to pay. The reason was that although Mr. A had suffered from high blood pressure and hyperlipidemia in the past at the time of the insurance contract, he did not disclose this, thereby violating the 'pre-contract notification obligation'. Mr. A was also notified of the termination of the contract. However, Mr. A filed a lawsuit, claiming that he informed Mr. B, who was in charge, of his medical history. However, he claimed that Mr. B only responded by asking him to check 'no' when asked about the relevant medical history at the time. At the same time, the company's contract termination was invalid. The court ruled in favor of Mr. A. The court said, "It is acknowledged that the plaintiff did not notify the fact that he had been diagnosed and prescribed medication at a hospital in the past," but pointed out, "However, this was because the insurance planner actively interfered with the notification." It continued, "If it had not been for the agent's actions, the plaintiff would not have provided inadequate notice," and ruled that the insurance company had an obligation to pay a total of 28 million won, including diagnosis and surgery fees, to the plaintiff. A's legal representative served as Mr. A's legal representative. Attorney Shin Seong-min of Daeryun Law Firm said, "Insurance planners have an obligation to explain the important contents of the contract in specific and detailed terms. If the contract is concluded without complying with this, the insurance contract cannot be terminated." He added, "In this case, even though Mr. A was informed that he had a medical condition at the time of signing the contract, he was induced to give a false answer, so it can be seen that he failed to fulfill his obligation to explain."

Law, “Insurance benefits must be paid” (Shortcut) 2026-05-10T06:52:23.547Z https://www.daeryunlaw.com/en/broadcast/4840 Drug crimes have been on the rise in recent years, and drug smuggling, distribution, and even transaction methods are becoming increasingly sophisticated. According to data released by the Korea Customs Service in January, a total of 862 drugs were detected by customs authorities at the border last year, totaling 787 kg. This is an amount that can be administered to approximately 26 million people, or half of the total population, at the same time. Overseas smuggling methods are also diversifying. Smuggling attempts were made through international mail (420 cases) or express cargo (235 cases), and there were also quite a few direct smuggling attempts through travelers (199 cases). Drugs brought into the country in this way are traded in various ways. They mainly recruit drug dealers through Telegram, SNS, etc., and then they deliver the drugs to buyers. Like voice phishing, it is operated in the form of a branch organization from the leader to the middle and the lowest level. In this way, drug crimes have permeated every corner of our daily lives, but they are not easy to detect because they are carried out systematically and secretly. According to a Korean police research report, the average crime rate (multiplier for calculating the actual number of crimes committed compared to arrests) of domestic drug crimes is 28.57 times. If this is applied, the actual drug crime is estimated to be much higher than the official statistics. The government has also rolled up its sleeves to eradicate drugs. The government announced plans to strengthen the investigation team dedicated to online drug distribution and cooperate with online messenger operators such as Telegram to dismantle large-scale online drug distribution networks. As part of this, it was decided to increase the reward for informants of drug crimes from the current 50 million won to a maximum of 300 million won, and to reduce the punishment for criminals who cooperate with the investigation. As drug crimes are evolving day by day, punishments are also being strengthened. In drug cases, all parties involved, including sellers, buyers, and intermediaries, are punished according to the Narcotic Drugs Control Act. Smoking, consuming, cultivating or distributing marijuana can result in imprisonment of up to 5 years or a fine of up to 50 million won. In particular, psychotropic drugs such as methamphetamine (philopon), ecstasy, and ketamine can cause serious harm to the human body if misused, so the sentences are more severe. If taken illegally, you can be sentenced to up to 10 years in prison or a fine of up to 100 million won. In addition, this applies to first-time offenders without exception, and if they commit acts such as destroying or hiding drugs after being caught, they cannot avoid aggravated punishment. In addition, in the case of new drugs with stronger hallucinogenic effects than existing drugs, if they are recognized as similar to existing drugs, they will be subject to criminal punishment under the temporary narcotic designation system. Therefore, just as with existing banned drugs, all activities, including administration, possession, possession, management, selling, and receiving, are prohibited. In particular, caution is required for these new types of drugs, as even if no drugs are detected in the body, suspicions can be established based on purchase records or financial transfer details. Cho Seong-geun, a drug lawyer at Daeryun Law Firm (Limited), said, “If you become a drug suspect, it is highly likely that a lot of relevant evidence has already been secured by the investigative agency.” He added, “If it is a simple drug use, it is necessary to prepare extenuating circumstances for the facts of the case, focusing on the value of the drug and whether it was distributed.” In addition, narcotics and psychotropic drugs are subject to intensive investigations based on the principle of arrest investigation, and if you want to reduce the suspicion even a little, it is recommended to consult with an expert from the beginning of the investigation, so the circumstances of the case must be clearly revealed in the early investigation stage to avoid as much as possible unfavorable situations in the future trial process.” Global Epic CP Lee Soo-hwan / lsh@globalepic.co.kr Evolving drug crimes, ranging from smuggling to transaction methods (Go here) 2026-05-13T12:29:32.872Z https://www.daeryunlaw.com/en/broadcast/4789 The court ruled that if a wholesale or retail sales company established a similar manufacturer without notifying the contracted production company, it would be justified even if the production company unilaterally terminated the contract. This is because it is judged that it is an act that greatly interferes with business for a company in a cooperative relationship to engage in the same business. In January, the Suwon High Court dismissed the plaintiff's claim as in the first trial in a lawsuit for damages filed by company A, a wholesale and retail sales company, against company B, a manufacturer of industrial adhesive-related products. Company A signed a dealership contract with company B in November 2021. Afterwards, Company B established a separate corporation to manage contract companies, including Company A, and then conducted an evaluation to determine whether to renew the contract for each company. During this process, Company B discovered that Company A had established a similar manufacturing company and stolen the company's proprietary technology. Accordingly, Company B notified Company A of the termination of the contract in May of the following year and stopped supplying products, citing a breakdown in the trust relationship. Company A immediately protested. Company A filed a lawsuit for damages of approximately 630 million won, claiming that the contract was unilaterally rejected by Company B. Company A claimed that Company B terminated the contract for an unfair reason, which was a violation of the Fair Trade Act. Company B requested that the claim be dismissed, saying, “Company A signed the contract without informing them that they were operating a similar company,” and “Because a significant change occurred in the contract, the contract could no longer be continued.” The first trial ruled in favor of Company B. The first trial court said, “Circumstances that raised doubts about the plaintiff’s reliability were revealed when he established a similar manufacturer and sales agency, which served as a major reason why the contractual relationship could not be maintained.” The appeals court also found no problem with Company B’s contract termination process. The appellate court ruled, “The plaintiff is the cause of the incident and it appears that the termination of the contract was an act of business necessity.” Lawyer Choi Han-sik of Daeryun Law Firm, who represented company B, said, “Company A was managing its clients under the purpose of technology sales and conducting monopolistic sales for company B.” He explained, “If company B had not established a separate corporation to manage contract companies, it would not have known that company A was operating the same business.” He added, “Company B discovered several problems after evaluation.” “The only action that could be taken immediately was to terminate the contract,” he said. “Therefore, it is difficult to say that Company B’s notification of suspension of business to Company A is likely to undermine fair and free competition or is unfair.” Reporter Hwang Jeong-won (jwhwang@mt.co.kr)[View full article] A company that secretly created a similar company and stole technology...

On the 6th of last month, the Ulsan District Court found Mr. A, in his 60s, not guilty on charges of manslaughter. Mr. A was accused of injuring B, a woman in her 70s, by falling in the hallway of a local university hospital in 2023. The incident occurred when Mr. A, who was leaving the hospital treatment room, passed by Mr. B who was approaching him. Immediately after the two men crossed paths, Mr. B fell and suffered 12 weeks of displacement. Mr. B filed a complaint against Mr. A, saying that he had no choice but to fall after being hit by Mr. A's elbow. Mr. A completely denied the charges. He claimed that he was aware of Mr. B's presence when leaving the treatment room and that he moved out of the way while leaving a certain space. At the same time, Mr. A emphasized that when looking at the CCTV footage, it appears that Mr. B lost his balance and fell. The police believed that Mr. A's charges were acknowledged. Since Mr. B was old and could easily lose his balance and fall, the main reason was that Mr. A had a duty to walk safely, such as looking ahead and keeping an appropriate distance, to prevent Mr. B from getting hurt. The prosecution also found Mr. A to be at fault and sentenced him to a summary indictment with a fine of 3 million won. A summary order was then issued in court, but Mr. A objected and requested a formal trial. In the end, the court found Mr. A not guilty. First, the court pointed out the credibility of Mr. B’s statement. Mr. B visited the emergency room immediately after falling and told the doctor, “I tripped and fell,” and during the first police investigation, he also answered, “I’m not sure if I tripped or hit,” but he changed his statement during the second investigation, raising questions about its credibility. The CCTV analysis results requested from the National Institute of Forensic Science also served as important evidence. The National Forensic Service, which analyzed the video, responded, “It is possible that the two people made contact, but it is difficult to determine whether there was contact due to the blind angle created by the camera’s shooting angle.” In addition, the court said, “The victim fell to the right immediately after the defendant’s right elbow crossed the victim’s right arm. If the victim fell due to the impact of the collision, it is in accordance with the laws of physics that he fell to the left, not the right.” At the same time, he explained the reason for the not guilty verdict, saying, “Even if the two people collided, we took into account the fact that the part of the victim’s body that the defendant’s elbow collided with was the arm, and that it was not a part that caused a large impact to the body.” Attorney Song Min-ye of the Daeryun Law Firm, who represented Mr. “It is excessive to impose a duty of care,” he said. Attorney Song also added, “During the trial, we requested a CCTV analysis review by a professional agency, and through the results, we were able to obtain a not guilty verdict, emphasizing that a causal relationship was not proven between Mr. A’s actions and Mr. B’s injuries.” Digital Content Team[View full article] A man in his 60s who received a summary order for manslaughter... ‘Not guilty’ after requesting formal trial (link) 2026-05-14T01:39:15.712Z https://www.daeryunlaw.com/en/broadcast/4785 Intellectual property rights (IP) refer to rights to knowledge, information, technology, ideas and other intangible intellectual creations. With advanced technological development, intellectual property has become a key factor that determines the competitiveness of countries and companies. In order to protect such intellectual property rights, the Basic Act on Intellectual Property was enacted in 2010. The main point of the bill is the creation, protection, and utilization of intellectual property and the creation of a foundation for it. Ultimately, the purpose is to enhance the value of intellectual property and strengthen the competitiveness of companies. With the advent of the digital information era, the scope of property rights such as software and content has expanded significantly, and companies are also taking active steps to protect copyrights. According to statistics from the Korea Copyright Commission, the number of copyright registrations by domestic corporations has been steadily increasing over the past five years: 21,937 in 2019, 28,809 in 2020, 28,863 in 2021, 32,204 in 2022, and 30,234 in 2023. Things to keep an eye on here The point is that the protection period varies depending on the type of right. The duration of the patent right is divided into 20 years for invention and design rights and 10 years for utility model rights. Therefore, in industries where it takes a long time to build a business, it is important to time the patent well. This is because filing an application too early or too late can have a significant impact on business. You can safely protect your business idea by disclosing the patent while securing the rights, and the rights can be guaranteed until the planned period. In addition, international applications also require sufficient consideration because the laws applicable to each country are different. Since patent duration, annual fees, etc. vary from country to country, a mid- to long-term plan must be made and approached strategically. The reason why companies proactively respond to copyright infringement through trademark registration and patent applications is because there is a high risk of leakage of confidential information. This is because technologies and designs that a company has worked hard to develop can cause enormous losses if they are leaked to the outside world. In particular, if a company loses its competitiveness due to leakage of core technology, it may eventually lose its edge in the market and face the risk of bankruptcy. Therefore, each company must recognize the importance of acquiring and utilizing intellectual property rights, strengthen compliance for internal information management, and establish a system to minimize damage. In addition, if a leak or infringement of intellectual property has already occurred, it is necessary to focus on proving the act of technology theft. Sejeong Hwang, an intellectual property lawyer at Daeryun Law Firm Limited, said, “The leaked technology, the source of the leak, and the extent of damage to the company caused by the leak must be clearly organized, and based on this, legal measures such as civil, criminal, and administrative lawsuits must be taken to resolve the problem more quickly.” “Corporate competitiveness depends on intellectual property protection. Don’t think that it is too late.” “It is advisable to take steps from now on and establish various plans to protect intellectual property rights,” he said.

A 40-year-old man who was accused of defamation after posting about his wife's fraudulent behavior on social media to find his runaway wife was sent to the police, but the prosecution decided not to indict him. The Pohang branch of the Daegu District Prosecutors' Office promotes the use of information and communication networks. It was confirmed that Mr. A, a man in his 40s, was not indicted in January on charges of violating the Act on Information Protection, etc. (defamation). Mr. A was accused of defaming the victim by posting defamatory posts on social media 19 times from early July 2023 to the end of May 2024, claiming that his Vietnamese wife, B, who ran away from home, committed fraud against him. Mr. A was married at the time. He claimed that he spent tens of millions of won on gifts, but Mr. B disappeared less than two months after getting married, and that he only wrote the article to find Mr. B. The police who investigated this case reported that Mr. A was guilty of defamation and other charges, and sent the case, but the prosecution decided not to indict because it judged that there was no charge due to insufficient evidence. Regarding the reason for non-indictment, the prosecution said, “Mr. A posted on social media and the media that ‘Mr. B committed a premeditated crime.’ Although the fact that Mr. B posted and reported the photo to an unspecified number of people may be problematic, he said, “This was just a means to find his wife with the help of an unspecified number of people, and overall, it is difficult to say that he slandered Mr. B as an unscrupulous woman from Vietnam, and there is no evidence to admit it.” Attorney Kwon Min-kyung of Daeryun Law Firm, who represented suspect A in this case, said. “For defamation to be established, the person involved in the act must be aware that the facts stated are false,” he said. “Mr. A was aware that he had actually suffered fraud from Mr. B at the time of writing the post, and it is interpreted that the prosecution judged this situation comprehensively.” Reporter Dong-wook Son (twson@lawleader.co.kr)[View full article] A man in his 40s who posted about his wife's fraud on social media in an attempt to find his runaway wife...

According to the legal community on the 14th, the 7th Division of the Seoul Administrative Court ruled in favor of the plaintiff in a lawsuit filed by the bereaved family of a man in his 60s, Mr. While working as a day laborer, he fell unconscious and was taken to the hospital, where he eventually died. The cause of death was acute myocardial infarction. The bereaved family claimed that the cause of Mr. A's death was poor working conditions. High-intensity work, such as carrying heavy loads and climbing slopes in hot and humid weather conditions, caused the myocardial infarction. The bereaved family claimed bereaved family benefits and funeral expenses according to industrial accident compensation. However, the Korea Workers' Compensation and Welfare Service said that Mr. A's work was responsible for the death. The decision was made to refuse payment, saying there was no causal relationship. Looking at Mr. A's health checkup results, there were suspicions of high blood pressure and diabetes, and these underlying diseases were the cause of myocardial infarction. Mr. A's bereaved family, who objected, filed an administrative lawsuit, and the court ruled in favor of the bereaved family. The court said, "High blood pressure and diabetes are risk factors for acute myocardial infarction, but so is excessive physical activity," and "Intensive physical labor in hot weather is healthy without underlying diseases." “It is a risk factor even for adult men,” he said. He added, “The work that the deceased did is physically burdensome even for the average person,” and added, “We recognize a significant causal relationship between the work and the deceased’s death.” Lawyer Jeong Young-min of Daeryun Law Firm, who represented Mr. A’s bereaved family, said, “In order to receive survivor benefits according to industrial accident compensation, it is most important to prove the causal relationship between the deceased’s work and the death.” He added, “Mr. A did not have a separate adjustment period. “We were able to obtain these results by proving that high-intensity work was done in a high-temperature and humid environment, which led to rapid changes in the body and led to death,” he explained.

It was announced on the 13th that it would be held. This seminar was promoted to analyze the normal wage system, which has changed for the first time in 11 years, and to develop practical countermeasures.

At this event, Attorney Kim analyzes the main content and gist of the Supreme Court ruling and explains the practical impact of the change in the scope of the ordinary wage. He also talks about new labor-management issues resulting from the change in precedent and the response measures each company must prepare. Dae-ryun Kim Kuk-il, CEO of Management, said, “It is expected that many companies will feel confused by the change in the ordinary wage,” and added, “This seminar, hosted by the Daejeon branch office rather than the metropolitan area, will provide alternatives to corporate practitioners in Daejeon, Sejong, and Chungcheong. “At the same time, we will be able to contribute to balanced regional development,” he said. Meanwhile, Daeryun Law Firm’s Daejeon branch office plans to contribute to improving citizens’ legal knowledge by holding a legal seminar once a month.

As a senior lawyer, you probably have a lot of schedules., Attorney Kim, who willingly took the time to be interviewed, said he enjoyed his time at law school. ‘valuable time’He recalled. We met and talked to lawyer Kim Young-min, who is quietly and unwaveringly following his own path.. While preparing for the bar exam, I was selected for the spring literary contest. Q) Please briefly introduce yourself.. hello. law firm(finite) Civil affairs in Daeryun, detective, I am Kim Young-min, a lawyer who is in charge of various litigation matters, including domestic affairs.. My history is a little special., After graduating from Seoul National University Law School, I failed to achieve my dream of passing the bar exam. 29I joined the military as a private at the age of three.. After being discharged from the military, I was preparing for a job in the media., By chance, I learned about a law school scholarship system for the economically disadvantaged. 35Sarah entered law school at a somewhat late age.. That's how I passed the bar exam and got to where I am now.. Q) I entered law school while preparing for the bar exam., When did you start dreaming of becoming a lawyer?? My dream of becoming a lawyer started from childhood.. In particular, my relationship with the late lawyer Cho Young-rae had a big impact.. Attorney Young-Rae Cho was a cousin of my eldest mother., I've heard a lot of his stories since I was young.. 'human rights lawyer'I developed a vague dream of becoming a lawyer like Cho Young-rae, the famous lawyer.. Then, naturally, I went to law school., My dream of becoming a lawyer came to fruition.. Q) You have a unique history as a winner of the Spring Literary Contest., Could you please introduce an anecdote from that time?? That episode was one of the most dramatic moments of my life.. In fact, I have been active in literary arts classes since elementary school and have won many awards in writing contests.. Then college 1I've competed in the Spring Literary Contest every year since I was in grade school, but I kept failing.. 2007year winter, bar exam 2I was busy preparing tea, so I didn't have time to write a new piece.. So, I made some changes to the work that was previously rejected and submitted it., This time we came up with a special strategy.. At the time, most applicants were submitting manuscripts written on computers., I took the opposite approach and wrote the manuscript by hand and submitted it.. I thought it would be more noticeable to the judges.. And then something truly unbelievable happened. I received a call from the Chosun Ilbo Spring Literary Contest., He asked me why I wrote my work on manuscript paper and submitted it.. at that moment 'ah, You got elected this time!'I had an intuition that. In fact, I was notified of winning a few days later.. Through this experience, I really felt that there is a time in life.. When I think about it now, I joke that maybe I didn't pass the bar exam because I used up all my luck..(laugh) Q) Hard law and soft poetry(童詩), It feels like a somewhat incongruous combination..(laugh) At first glance, it may seem that way.. But I think these two fields are more closely connected than you might think.. I am reminded of the words of former Supreme Court Justice Kim Jae-hyung, whom I took a class in as an undergraduate., "There is a lot of space to be filled by imagination, both inside and outside civil law."While "Legal imagination is as important as literary imagination."He said. After hearing that 'and, Don’t I have both literary imagination and legal imagination??'I remember thinking.(laugh) Actually, writing, including children's poetry, has been a hobby of mine for a long time., Law is the field I majored in.. If you look at the relationship between hobbies and occupations, they are not that different.. Rather, I think having both of these things would be my strength.. 3annual tuition, Decided to go to a law school that even supports living expenses Q) What made you decide to go to law school?? In fact, the biggest reason was economic.. Since I was young, my family's financial circumstances were not good, so I always received help from scholarships to study.. After graduating from college, I faced a significant financial burden while preparing for the bar exam.. Then 31After completing my military service at age 7, I was preparing for a job., A friend heard about my situation and told me about a law school scholarship program.. It turned out that I was in the second-lowest class, so I was able to receive a significant scholarship when entering law school.. even ret(LEET) I was even able to get the test fee waived.. It was a bit disappointing that it was only then that I found out that such a system existed.. If I had known sooner, I would have applied to law school right after I was discharged from the military.. I took the LIT exam without any special preparation., I got a surprisingly high score. I was accepted to both Sungkyunkwan University and Chung-Ang University., After thinking about it 3Annual tuition and monthly 100I was admitted to Chung-Ang University Law School, which offered exceptional conditions that included living expenses support of up to 10,000 won.. Q) Age when you took the bar exam 38It must have been quite different from his younger peers., Wasn’t it physically difficult??(laugh) As I mentioned earlier, I was relatively comfortable thanks to my background as a major.. So, fortunately, there wasn't much physical strain.. but, 3grade 2After finishing the semester final exam and with about a month left until the bar exam, I let my guard down for a moment.. Since I don't have to go to school, I stay in my room and watch YouTube and dramas all day., I spent some time watching movies.. Now that I think about it, it was a really dangerous move.. Even before the bar exam 'What if I fall??'Because I was so worried that. Fortunately, I passed, Until the announcement of successful candidates 3It was a truly nerve-wracking moment.. Through this experience, you must not let go of tension until the end., I learned the hard lesson that skill lies in overcoming and doing things when you don't want to do them.. Q) Before you know it 7You have been working as a lawyer for three years.. Recent law firm(finite) You moved your home to Daeryun., What kind of work do you do?? yes, Current law firm(finite) General civil affairs in Daeryun, I am in charge of criminal litigation.. Especially in Daeryun, the lyrics incident, In other words, I also do a lot of work related to divorce and inheritance.. I am building my so-called expertise by handling cases in various fields.. Q) What are the rewards and difficulties you find in your work?? The greatest reward is when I solve my clients’ problems.. I especially feel greatly rewarded when I help people who are in financial difficulty or who are having difficulties due to lack of legal knowledge.. The greatest joy as a lawyer is being able to make positive changes in people's lives with my experience and knowledge.. The challenge is that it is sometimes difficult to reconcile the gap between client expectations and legal reality.. From the client's perspective, of course, he wants a favorable outcome for himself., There are cases where it is legally difficult.. In times like this, the process of explaining the reality while finding the best alternative and persuading the client is not easy.. also, Sometimes it is difficult to manage personal time due to a lot of work.. However, I am overcoming these difficulties by thinking that they are part of my growing process.. “Someday, I want to work as a lawyer and children's writer.” Q) What makes you most happy these days, lawyer?? I've been really into running lately.. last year 6I started running through the Runday app in January., Not long ago, I ran a marathon 10km participate in the course 55Set a squad record. At first, I thought it was a sport that didn’t cost much money., As I got deeper and deeper into it, my running shoes, running belt, There are surprisingly many things to buy, including sports watches..(laugh) 30run without stopping, 50run without stopping, 5km Completed, 10km Every time I set a goal, such as completing a race, and achieve it, I give myself these items as a gift.. sort of 'running flex'Should I say?(laugh) Q) What are the future plans of lawyer Kim Young-min and person Kim Young-min?? In the future, I would like to further develop my expertise in a specific field.. So far, I have handled cases in a variety of fields., Now the labor law, lyrics(divorce, succession), criminal law, I'm trying to focus more on one specific field, such as copyright law.. In the long term, my goal is to run a law office or law firm under my name.. When that time comes 'Attorney Youngmin Kim' When I did it ‘ah~ Skilled in what field’I would like to be evaluated as a warm and humble lawyer.. To this end, I plan to continue studying and accumulating various experiences.. Personally, maintaining a good balance between home and work is one of my important goals.. My daughter is just now 5It's killing me, I also cherish the time I spend with my children and want to maintain a balance between home and work.. And if you have one small dream, Someday, I want to work as a lawyer and children's writer.. I'm always envious and respectful when I see people who are both lawyers and writers.. If I get the chance, I also write fairy tales and essays for children., Furthermore, it would be great if we could provide legal education to children.. Q) Lastly, do you have any advice for those who are hesitant to go to law school due to their age or the misunderstanding that tuition will be expensive?? First, you can safely stop worrying about tuition.. There are many scholarship benefits depending on your income level.. I too am a living witness to the benefits.. Being old is definitely not a factor in failing to pass the exam.. Rather, past life experiences can be a strength.. The important thing is to appeal well to what kind of study you have done up to that age, what social experiences you have gained, and what strengths you have gained as a lawyer through that. Don't worry too much about your past undergraduate grades as they are already in the past. Instead, focus on your English scores, such as TOEIC, or LIT scores, which can be improved with effort. Never think, ‘I can’t do it because of my age.’ Instead, just think about how you can incorporate your age into your strengths in your self-introduction. If you prepare like that, you will definitely be active in the legal field with me in three years. We support your challenge!

A military legal expert said that there was a possibility that the state would seek compensation from the pilots. On the 11th, Pocheon City, Gyeonggi Province, announced that it would preemptively pay 1 million won per person in basic disaster income to ensure the stability of the lives of residents affected by the accidental bombing of an Air Force fighter jet and to guarantee their basic rights.

Previously, Air Force Chief of Staff Lee Young-soo announced the interim results of the accident at the Ministry of National Defense building in Yongsan-gu, Seoul on the 10th. At the time, it was confirmed that the pilots of the two fighter jets made a mistake by entering the target coordinates incorrectly and did not properly perform the procedure to recheck the coordinates. In addition, the Air Force was also found to have shortcomings in management and supervision, such as the unit commanders, the former commander (colonel) and battalion commander (lieutenant colonel), not properly reviewing the work-level plan. As of the 10th, a total of 31 people were injured in the accident, including 19 civilians and 12 soldiers. It has been reported that more than 150 cases of damage to private homes have been reported. The government and local governments are specifying compensation plans and procedures in response to the unprecedented accidental bombing of private homes by fighter jets. Pocheon Mayor Baek Young-hyeon said on the 7th, "We will set up a reserve fund for damage such as damage to houses and take proactive measures to recover. We will review disaster relief funds for the affected areas." Victims of this accident are expected to receive compensation in accordance with the National Compensation Act. The National Compensation Act stipulates that if a public official causes damage to another person intentionally or through negligence while carrying out his or her duties, the state or a public organization shall be liable for compensation. Attorney Choi Hyun-deok of the Daeryun Law Firm, a former Air Force military prosecutor, said, "Victims can apply for compensation against the state, and then the Ministry of Defense's Compensation Deliberation Committee will review the matter and make a decision to pay compensation." As the Air Force cited 'pilots' mistakes' as the background to this accident, the state will later decide to do so. There is also an analysis that compensation may be claimed from the pilots. Regarding this, Attorney Choi said, "To date, the Air Force appears to be maintaining the position that the individual pilot's negligence led to the accident. According to Article 2, Paragraph 2 of the National Compensation Act, if there is a serious negligence on the part of a public official, the state can claim compensation for all or part of the compensation paid, so it is expected that the scale of disciplinary action will vary depending on the interpretation of the pilot's violation of duty of care." Military authorities said at the scene, "Compensation for damages." A 'On-Site Response Team' was organized and a briefing session was held for residents regarding compensation procedures and methods.

According to the legal community on the 12th, the 2-3 Criminal Division of the Seoul Central District Court recently sentenced Mr. He was sent to trial on charges of filming sex scenes with Mr. B, his lover at the time, without consent several times from April to September. In the first trial, the court sentenced Mr. A to 8 months in prison and detained him, ruling that "the method of the crime was poor and the nature of the crime is not good. Mr. B is complaining of mental pain and pleading for the defendant to be severely punished." Afterwards, both Mr. A and the prosecution appealed against the first trial ruling, and Mr. A's legal representative appealed in the appeal trial. “Mr. A sincerely apologized to Mr. B, and was forgiven after making efforts to recover from the damage. Mr. A has no history of being punished other than this incident and is deeply reflecting,” he said, appealing for leniency. As a result, the appellate court accepted Mr. A’s argument that the original trial’s sentence was too heavy. The court revealed the reason for the reduced sentence, saying, “We made a comprehensive judgment considering various sentencing conditions, such as the fact that the defendant admits the crime, the fact that Mr. B does not want to punish Mr. A by agreement at the trial, and the fact that it is his first offense.” Shin Seong-min, a lawyer at Daeryun Law Firm who is Mr. A’s legal representative, explained, “As the number of illegal filming crimes increases, there is a recent trend of imprisonment sentences even for first-time offenders.

The Air Force stressed that the pilots failed to follow the mandatory procedure of checking the coordinates of their target at least three times both before and after takeoff. "The pilots could be criminally prosecuted as they cannot legally dodge blame for the accident, even though it occurred during military training," Kim Young-sou, an attorney at Daeryun Law Firm LLC and a former justice at the High Court for Armed Forces told The Korea Herald. Another expert in military law echoed Kim's sentiment, saying that the pilots could be charged under Article 268 of the Criminal Act for causing injury by occupational negligence. A military advocate-turned-attorney, requesting anonymity, explained that the pilots, if found guilty, could face a maximum prison sentence of five years or a fine of up to 20 million won ($13,722). “It seems in this case, even though the pilots accidentally dropped the bombs during a military exercise, they could be charged with violating Article 269 of the Criminal Act,” the attorney said. “The authorities could also find the group commander and the squadron commander of the unit responsible for breaching the law, as they were in charge of overseeing the drill.”Both the group commander and the squadron commander were dismissed from their posts as of Tuesday, the Defense Ministry said in a text message to reporters. The cited ministry dereliction of duty as the main reason behind their latest decision. Insufficient command management and supervision were other reasons that were cited.According to an interim investigation report released by the Air Force on Monday, inadequate management was another cause of the accident. The group commander, who was responsible for overseeing the safety of the exercise, failed to do so as related instructions were passed down to the squadron commander, who is lower in rank, the report said. fatalities, so the punishment is likely to be less severe,” said the professor, who requested anonymity.The remarks come amid divided views on whether the military officers can be criminally charged due to the fact that the incident occurred during a military exercise.South Korea’s Defense Ministry launched an in-depth investigation into the incident on Monday, citing the gravity of the situation. Jung Min-kyung (mkjung@heraldcorp.com) [Korean Translation] Two KF-16 fighter pilots who accidentally dropped a bomb in a village in Pocheon last week could face criminal punishment, experts said on the 12th. On the 11th, the Korean Air Force reconfirmed that the cause of this accident was pilot error, and reported that 31 people were injured in the accident, 19 of whom were civilians. The accident occurred in Nogok-ri village, Idong-myeon, Pocheon, near the border with North Korea. The Air Force emphasized that the pilots did not follow mandatory procedures to check the target's coordinates at least three times before and after takeoff. Attorney Kim Young-soo of Daeryun Law Firm (former Supreme Court Justice of the Military Court) said, “Pilots can be subject to criminal punishment even if an accident occurs during military training because they cannot legally avoid responsibility.” Another military law expert agreed with Attorney Kim's opinion and stated that pilots could be subject to criminal punishment for causing injuries due to negligence in their duties. “If the pilots are found guilty, they could face up to five years in prison or a fine of 20 million won (about $13,700),” explained a former military lawyer who did not reveal his identity. He said, “This accident was a mistake that occurred during military training, but there is a possibility that he will be punished for violating Article 269 of the Criminal Act,” adding, “The unit commander and squadron commander who supervised the training may also be held responsible for violating the law.” The Ministry of National Defense announced that the unit commander and squadron commander were dismissed from their positions as of the 12th. The Ministry of National Defense cited their neglect of duty as the main cause, and also cited a lack of command, management and supervision as the reason. According to the interim investigation results announced by the Air Force on the 11th, another cause of the accident was lack of management. The report stated that this was because the unit commander, who was responsible for supervising safety, failed to properly implement it, and related instructions were passed on to the lower-ranking squadron commander. The military law professor pointed out that the pilots could be subject to criminal punishment, citing past cases, but explained that considering that this incident occurred without casualties, it is highly likely that they will receive a lighter punishment, such as military discharge. “In the past, there was a case where a lieutenant was sentenced to prison for causing the death of a soldier due to a shooting mistake during training, but since there were no deaths in this accident, the punishment is likely to be lighter,” said a military law professor who requested anonymity. This remark came amid differing opinions as to whether or not criminal punishment should be imposed as the accident occurred during military training. The South Korean Ministry of National Defense announced on the 11th that it had begun an additional investigation considering the seriousness of the incident.

In particular, because the value of technology is important in the pharmaceutical and bio industries, 'patent'The importance of can be said to be very great.. However, the current patent period is based on the application date. 20years and years, For medicines, the maximum 5Extension is possible for less than a year(There are also issues related to this due to the recent revision of the patent law.).IMS Institute for Healthcare InformaticsA report published by(Price Declines after Branded Medicines Lose Exclusivity in the U.S)According to, All drugs are proprietary(patent)After losing this 1Drug prices within a year 51% fell. 10When years have elapsed, the maximum 88%plummeted to. Strengthening the item approval process, Due to competition with new technologies, the difficulty of developing new drugs increases and development costs increase accordingly., The moment the patent expires, the price of the drug plummets, so the expiration of the term is more fatal to the original pharmaceutical companies than anything else.. Therefore, original pharmaceutical companies have no choice but to always try to compensate as much as possible for losses resulting from patent expiration..As a result, many original pharmaceutical companies adopt a strategy of continuously filing for follow-up patents before the existing patent expires, effectively achieving the same effect as extending the patent period.. generic drugs, The purpose is to block so-called generic drugs from entering the market and extend the period of maintaining market occupancy., This is usually 'Ever Greening(Evergreening) patent strategy'It is said that.◇Various Types of Evergreening Patents The original purpose of patents is to protect innovation and R&D(Research and development)To promote, If the evergreening strategy is abused, it may work differently from its original purpose.. Companies are using various methods to extend the protection period of existing patents within the legally permitted range., The main types are:.①Formulation(Formulation) change: Contains the same active ingredients but sustained-release formulation, Apply for a patent for a new dosage form such as oral or injectable form②use(Indication) change: New indications in addition to the original therapeutic purpose(medicinal uses)Applied for a patent on③furtherance(Composition) change: Improved effectiveness by changing composition ratio and applied for new patent on this④production process(Process) improvement: Applied for a patent optimizing the production method of existing drugs⑤combination drug(Combination Therapy): A representative example of applying for a patent for a new composition with improved efficacy and effectiveness by combining existing single-ingredient drugs with other active ingredients is Viagra.(Viagra)and Lipitor(Lipitor)You can choose. Developed by the American pharmaceutical company Pfizer, Viagra was originally a cardiovascular treatment.. However, during clinical trials, a new effect for treating erectile dysfunction was discovered, and Pfizer applied for a new patent due to change of use.. Accordingly, the original patent expiration date was 2012year 3in month 2019year 10Approximately per month 7Exclusive rights extended for one year. Through this, the erectile dysfunction treatment market 92%was able to generate enormous profits, including. Pfizer's hyperlipidemia treatment Lipitor 2007year 5Month original patent expired. However, in order to defend profits, starting with the first material patent, preclinical 3Continuously applied for follow-up patents throughout the entire phase..

In some countries, there are attempts to regulate it through fair trade laws or patent abuse by focusing only on the negative aspects., It is difficult to deny that Evergreen's patent strategy also has positive aspects..①positive side: From the original pharmaceutical company's perspective, it is possible to secure stable profits through new patents, and based on this, an environment is created in which investments in new research and development can be made.. In fact, because the development of new drugs requires enormous costs and time, some argue that a certain level of market monopoly is necessary for continuous research and development.. Another patient(consumer)Real benefits can be provided to. A typical example is when the convenience of taking is increased or side effects are reduced through improved drug formulation.. If the goal is to actually improve quality and improve the quality of life of patients rather than simply extending the monopoly, this can be a positive factor..②negative side: Contrary to the above, patients may suffer losses due to restrictions on competition.. Subsequent patents make it difficult for generics to enter the market., As a result, drug prices rise.. Patients do not have the opportunity to use cheaper alternatives, which leads to increased medical costs.. If it goes further, it will lead to loss of insurance finances on a national level.. In some cases, there may be a possibility of becoming embroiled in legal disputes.. Recently, regulatory agencies have tended to strictly judge the inventive step of composition patents, etc., so there is a possibility of invalidation.. In addition, if it is judged to be an abuse of patent rights, regulatory agencies may take action under the Fair Trade Act, etc.. Generic companies may become embroiled in another dispute by filing patent invalidation trials, rights scope confirmation trials, or using other strategies to avoid patents altogether..Evergreening patent strategy is an important tool for maximizing the profitability of pharmaceutical and bio companies.. However, if abused, it not only undermines fair competition., It can also cause harm to consumers.. Therefore, in order for the pharmaceutical industry to achieve sustainable development in the future, a certain degree of balance with legal regulations is necessary.. At the same time, companies will be required to develop innovative new drugs and develop ethical and fair patent strategies rather than simply extending monopolies..

There was a case in which a high school student who illegally filmed the bodies of a female teacher and his friend's younger sisters using the camera function of his cell phone at school and a friend's house was sentenced to protective measures rather than criminal punishment. It was confirmed that Cheongju District Court Juvenile Division Chief Judge Lee Hyeong-geol made a decision in January this year to order Student A, who was accused of violating the Special Act on the Punishment of Sexual Violence Crimes (filming and distribution using cameras, etc.), to be placed under guardian supervision (No. 1), ordered to attend classes for 20 hours (No. 2), and receive special education for the guardian. Student A illegally filmed the bodies of his friends' younger sisters using his mobile phone around early February 2024. At the time, it was investigated that Student A had committed this crime while staying at a friend's house after running away from home. This incident was uncovered by a friend who found a large amount of illegal video footage on Student A's cell phone, and as a result of the investigation, it was revealed that Student A had committed several crimes not only against his friends' younger siblings, but also against teachers. Accordingly, the school held a School Violence Measures Review Committee and ordered Student A to transfer to another school (No. 8), receive special education (No. 5), and be prohibited from contacting (No. 2). Student A, who was sent to the juvenile department, admitted all his crimes at trial and asked for leniency. Student A's legal representative emphasized, "Mr. A is a minor whose sexual concepts have not yet been established, and he committed the crime without knowing the seriousness of the matter. As a first-time offender, Mr. A did not distribute the video and is determined not to reoffend in the future." Chief Judge Lee Hyeong-geol, who heard this case, acknowledged that Mr. A's crime was serious because he committed a crime against a teacher and a young student, but took various reasons comprehensively into consideration, such as entrusting him with a guardian's supervision. The decision was made to impose a light sentence. Attorney Lee Eun-seong of the Daeryun Law Firm said, "Sex crimes such as illegal filming are receiving heavy punishment due to the characteristic of spreading quickly once they are spread. In addition, as the age of crime is lowering, there is a growing awareness that criminal punishment should be imposed even at a young age." He added, "It varies depending on the case, but in this case, taking into account the fact that it was a first-time offender, the fact that efforts are being made to prevent recurrence, and the fact that some of the victims were forgiven, we were able to receive protective measures instead of punishment." He explained. Attorney Lee Eun-seong also said, “A quick and accurate response is necessary from the beginning of the case,” and added, “If the charges are acknowledged, we must prepare sentencing materials as much as possible so that they can be used advantageously in court.” Reporter Dong-wook Son (twson@lawleader.co.kr)[View full article] High school student who ‘illegally filmed a female teacher and her friend’s younger sister’... received protective measures, not criminal punishment (link) 2026-05-13T01:55:37.552Z https://www.daeryunlaw.com/en/broadcast/4744 It turns out that the certificate I received at the time of signing the local housing association membership contract is invalid... Deposit refund lawsuit court said, "If there was no certificate, the contract would not have been made... the parties must also ratify for it to be valid." The court ruled in favor of the plaintiff that even if the validity of an important certificate was secured through a ratification resolution, if the contracting parties did not participate in the process, it was invalid. On January 15, the Busan District Court ruled in favor of the plaintiff in a lawsuit filed by two union members, including Mr. A, against the B Regional Housing Association Establishment Promotion Committee for the return of contributions. Mr. A and others will be released in 2022. For the purpose of selling a newly built apartment, a contract was signed with Promotion Committee B and a deposit of 30 million won was paid. During the contract process, they were issued a security guarantee certificate, which stated that if the project could not proceed due to the union's negligence, the entire contribution would be refunded. Afterwards, Mr. A and others learned that the guarantee certificate was invalid. In order to return the contribution, it is necessary to establish related rules within the union or pass a resolution at the general meeting, but the Promotion Committee did not proceed with this procedure. Accordingly, Mr. A and others filed a lawsuit for the return of the contribution, claiming that the contract was concluded without receiving any information from the Promotion Committee that the guarantee certificate was invalid. However, Promotion Committee B countered that there was no obligation to return the contribution. After the contract was signed, a ratification resolution was passed to ensure that the certificate had legal effect. At the same time, he emphasized that it is impossible to exercise the right to cancel the contract once it has become effective through ratification. The court ruled in favor of the plaintiffs, including Mr. A. First, the court explained, “It appears that the plaintiffs made a mistake because they did not know that the security guarantee certificate was invalid at the time of signing the contract,” and that “without the certificate, they would not have entered into the contract.” In addition, the court pointed out that there was a problem in the ratification process. The warranty deed can be considered effective only if the plaintiffs, who are parties to the contract, also ratify it, but there is no basis for acknowledging that Mr. A and others ratified it. Accordingly, the court added, “Considering these circumstances, the contract is still invalid, so cancellation of the contract is legal.” Attorney Nakhyeong Kim of Daeryun Law Firm, who represented Mr. A and others, said, “The refund agreement under the security guarantee certificate is not a sole act of the union, but a contract with the plaintiffs,” and added, “Therefore, it cannot be considered effective just because a ratified resolution was passed at the regular general meeting of the union, which was one of the parties.” Digital Content Team[View full article] A decision was made to ratify the ineffective documents, but… Court “Still invalid” Why?

Mr. A, who worked in the company's finance team, was He was handed over to trial on charges of unauthorized use of the company's corporate card 1,348 times over a period of about two years starting in August 2021. In addition, he was also suspected of withdrawing money from the corporate account 92 times and using it for personal purposes. As a result of the investigation, it was confirmed that the damage suffered by the company due to Mr. A's actions was close to 200 million won. Afterwards, Mr. A was fired from the company on the grounds of embezzlement of public funds. Mr. A admitted to all charges. However, the company argued that it should be excluded from the damage amount, saying that it did not pay wages and severance pay. The court sentenced Mr. A to probation. The court said, “The defendant repeatedly used a corporate card and withdrew money from the account and used it for personal purposes,” and “This caused a significant financial loss to the victim.” However, the court said, “It appears that the amount owed to the defendant, including wages, was partially offset from the amount of damage,” and “We took into account the fact that the defendant repaid a portion of the amount to recover the damage and that the victim also wanted leniency through an amicable settlement,” and stated the reason for sentencing. In this case, Mr. A was represented. Attorney Lee Jae-hyung of Daeryun Law Firm (Limited) said, “Some of the card payments used by Mr. A without permission were work-related, so it was difficult to regard all the amounts as actual damages.” He added, “It appears that the suspended sentence was imposed taking into account the fact that Mr. A promised to recover damages.” Reporter Kim Jong-cheol (jckim99@sportsseoul.com)[View full article] An employee in his 40s who embezzled 1,348 corporate credit cards and 200 million won in company money received probation (link) 2026-05-11T19:02:25.343Z https://www.daeryunlaw.com/en/broadcast/4740 Daeryun Corporate Law Group announced on the 10th that it signed an MOU with NRB, a circular modular construction company, to expand its modular business.

Recently, there was a disaster in which four people died and six were injured in a bridge collapse at the new construction site of the Seoul Sejong Expressway. In the wake of this accident, which resulted in significant casualties, the call for safety to be viewed from the perspective of 'investment' rather than 'cost' is gaining momentum. Safety issues at construction sites are an important issue not only for the contractor (construction company) but also for the contractor (developer). The Serious Accident Punishment Act, which went into effect in 2022, stipulates that managers can be sentenced to more than one year in prison or fined up to 1 billion won for serious industrial accidents that occur due to failure to properly establish a safety and health management system. This means that a company's responsibility does not remain at the level of individual workers but can expand to the legal risks of management. Safety and health responsibility, directly linked to corporate survival. There was an important Supreme Court ruling in 2023 regarding the safety and health responsibility of developers. The core of the precedent is that, in accordance with Article 63 of the revised Occupational Safety and Health Act, the developer must also bear the obligation to take safety and health measures for workers of related construction companies working at their workplace. The court ruled that the scope of the developer's responsibility should not be limited to its contractual role but should be judged based on its actual control and management authority over the construction site. This suggests that safety responsibility may be extended to developers with substantial construction management capabilities and construction control. When a serious accident occurs, in addition to criminal punishment under the Occupational Safety and Health Act, various sanctions are imposed, such as suspension of business, disadvantages in the preliminary screening (PQ) of public institution bid participation, and designation as a subject of special supervision by the Ministry of Employment and Labor. This is why faithfully carrying out safety and health responsibilities is directly related to the survival of a company. To avoid sanctions, it is essential to proactively establish a safety and health management system. A systematic approach and continuous improvement are needed, such as establishing safety and health policies led by management and properly implementing them on site. Serious accidents that occur at construction sites are mainly caused by human factors as well as material and systemic factors such as interference between construction types (types of construction), lack of construction ability, and poor safety inspection. To prevent this, safety management must be systematically operated, such as strengthening risk assessments for high-risk work, mandating safety training for each type of work, and implementing TBM (Tool-Box Meeting) for each work immediately before input. Since the CSO cannot be an all-purpose solution, an increasing number of companies are appointing a chief safety officer (CSO) to exercise independent budget execution and decision-making authority in order to reduce the legal liability of business owners and CEOs. However, appointing a CSO alone is not enough. To prevent accidents, it is even more important to provide a foundation for front-line employees and managers to implement safety and health measures. Business owners should keep three main things in mind. First, from a legal perspective, it is necessary to establish a causal relationship (a legal relationship between a cause and a result, which is judged based on predictability and directness of the result). It must be possible to prove that the accident was unavoidable despite the implementation of sufficient safety and health measures. This is because the business owner cannot be held fully responsible. Second, close management must be carried out to prevent arbitrary work that is not directed by the supervisor from occurring at the construction site. Third, invest in creating a safe work environment. You can start with easy things, such as expanding rest facilities, zoning the yard, and preventing interference with preceding and succeeding construction types. Safety management is essential to realize sustainable management and fulfill social responsibility in the construction industry. Rather than considering a follow-up response after an accident has already occurred, it is better to seek advice from a lawyer in advance to minimize risks from the personnel deployment and management stage. This plays an important role in proactively responding not only to major disasters but also to various legal issues such as changes in contract contracts and increases or decreases in construction costs.

The 3rd Criminal Division of the Daejeon High Court (Presiding Judge Kim Byeong-sik, Presiding Judge) In the appeal trial for Mr. A (age 25), who was indicted on charges of forcible rape of a minor, Judges Eui-seok Lee and Sang-ho Kwak) confirmed that on January 7 of this year, they overturned the original trial that sentenced him to two years in prison and sentenced him to two years in prison and three years of probation. The appellate court also ordered Mr. A to take 40 hours of sexual violence treatment classes and to be restricted from employment at institutions related to children, youth, and the disabled for three years. Around December 2023, he was accused of committing adultery with Ms. B (15 years old), a minor whom he met through a random chat. According to Article 305 of the Criminal Act, when an adult has sexual intercourse with a minor under the age of 16, the child's ability to consent is not recognized. Therefore, even if sexual intercourse was consensual, you will be subject to criminal punishment. Mr. A proposed a meeting with Ms. B, who happened to enter the chat room, and on the day of the incident, he lured her into his vehicle and had sexual intercourse. However, it was confirmed that Mr. A did not use violence against Ms. B at the time. The first trial court judged that Mr. A's crime was serious and sentenced him to two years in prison. The first trial court ruled, “The defendant is deeply guilty of using adultery with a victim who lacks the ability to exercise sexual self-determination as a means of satisfying his or her sexual desires.” Mr. A appealed against the first trial ruling. In the appellate trial, Mr. A requested a reduced sentence, citing the fact that he did not commit the crime with premeditation and that he did not use coercive means such as violence or threats. As the reason for sentencing, the appellate court accepted Mr. A's argument and decided to reduce the sentence, saying, "Looking at the conversation between the defendant and the victim and the statements made by the investigative agency, etc., it does not appear that the defendant committed the crime with definite intention." Attorney Lee Ki-jun of Daeryun Law Firm (Limited) explained, "The crime of forcible rape of a minor is punished regardless of whether the minor is aware of it or not and whether the victim consents or not. If the charge is acknowledged, it is important to lower the sentence. In Mr. A's case, he was able to receive a reduced sentence by proving that there was no intent for the crime and that he would likely be reborn as a sound member of society if he corrects his wrong coming-of-age attitude."

The Constitutional Court is reviewing in earnest whether the Bar Association's regulations prohibiting advertising of AI-based legal services infringe upon the freedom of lawyers to practice their profession. On February 10, the Constitutional Court referred the case to the full court to confirm the unconstitutionality of Article 23, Paragraph 2, Item 7 of the Attorney Act filed by Daeryun Law Firm. This means that the Constitutional Court recognizes the case as subject to review on the merits and deals with whether it is unconstitutional. After receiving the case, the Constitutional Court reviews the legal requirements in a designated tribunal consisting of three judges, and makes a decision to dismiss the case if the requirements are not met. However, as this case moves to the merits trial stage, we plan to review in depth the unconstitutionality of the Bar Association's AI legal service advertising regulations. The key issues in this constitutional petition are whether the regulation of AI-based legal services violates the essential freedom of lawyers to perform their duties and whether it undermines the public interest by excessively restricting consumers' access to legal information. Daeryun launched the AI-based legal consultation program 'AI Daeryun' on January 16, but the Bar Association violated the Attorney Act. On the grounds of possession, the advertisement of the program was banned and a constitutional petition was filed while considering disciplinary action. The provisions that Daeryun took issue with were ‘Article 23, Paragraph 2, No. 7 of the Attorney Act’ and ‘Article 5 of the Rules on Lawyer Advertisements.’ According to the regulations, lawyers cannot advertise the use of AI programs other than those certified by the Bar Association and supervised by the responsible attorney. In addition, advertisements that use AI programs to allow consumers to receive direct legal advice or connect with lawyers are also prohibited. Daeryun argues that the regulations infringe on the freedom of lawyers to practice their profession and limit consumers' access to information by preventing the use of AI-based legal services. This case is evaluated as an important case that obscures the constitutional legitimacy of AI technology and legal service regulations. A legal official predicted, “As legal services using AI are expanding, it is highly likely that legal standards will be established to determine whether bar association regulations hinder innovation in the legal market or are reasonable regulations with public interest purposes.” Park Dong-il (39, 8th time on the bar exam), representative attorney Daeryun, said, “This Constitutional Court hearing is meaningful as it provides an opportunity to review the constitutional legitimacy of AI legal service regulations,” adding, “The legal market is also changing amid the global AI transition.” “It is necessary,” he said. He added, “Daeryun is expanding consumers’ accessibility to legal information by providing ‘AI Daeryun’ for free,” adding, “It is time to reconsider whether the Bar Association’s regulations are in line with the promotion of public interest.” Reporter Jinyoung Lee[View full article] [Exclusive] Constitutional Court begins hearing on merits of AI advertising regulation by Korean Bar Association… Referral to the full court (link) 2026-05-12T13:22:59.925Z https://www.daeryunlaw.com/en/broadcast/4732 A man in his 30s who repeatedly contacted his ex-girlfriend several times received a summary order, but was acquitted after requesting a formal trial. On January 16, Criminal Division 22 of the Seoul Central District Court (Judge Ha Jin-woo) declared Mr. A, a man in his 30s, not guilty, who had been put on trial on charges of violating the law on the punishment of stalking crimes. Mr. A even though his lover B, who broke up in 2023, requested that he no longer contact him. He was accused of making 165 phone calls or sending messages, photos, and videos. The prosecution found Mr. A guilty of stalking and summarily indicted him on charges of violating the Stalking Punishment Act with a fine of 2 million won. Afterwards, the court issued a summary order, but Mr. A, who did not obey the order, requested a formal trial. During the trial, Mr. A claimed that he took this action to improve relations. He emphasized that he followed Mr. B's request because when he had previously separated and reunited several times, Mr. B said, "Repeatedly try to catch me" and "It is not a crime, so please contact me." Afterwards, the two reconciled for a while, but their relationship worsened again soon after. Mr. A's side added, "At this time, Mr. B continued to encourage contact, such as by setting up a SNS profile screen asking him to return to him. The court ruled that Mr. A was not guilty. The court said, "It is acknowledged that the defendant repeatedly called or sent messages," but added, "The victim only started dating again when the defendant made efforts, such as contacting her several times or visiting her, in the process of repeating breakups and reunions." The victim also sent messages. He explained, “Even after the relationship worsened again, the victim only ignored the contact and did not clearly express what he should not do.” Kim Myeong-cheol, a lawyer at Daeryun Law Firm (Limited), who represented Mr. A, said, “During the trial, we emphasized Mr. A’s situation, which he thought would be able to restore the relationship if he took the actions requested by Mr. B.” He added, “We were able to get a not guilty verdict by highlighting the fact that Mr. A had no intent to commit the crime.” Said.

According to the legal community on the 5th, the Eastern Branch of the Busan District Prosecutors' Office recently dismissed Mr. A, in his 60s, for fraud after being investigated on charges of fraud. By April 2020, he was handed over to the prosecution on charges of receiving and embezzling 438 million won in rental deposits from tenants of a villa in Jung-gu, Busan. Tenants filed a complaint against Mr. A, claiming that they were victims of a so-called tin lease fraud in which the deposit for the lease was higher than the sale price of the property. However, Mr. A denied all charges. Mr. A's side claimed, "A provisional seizure was taken on the villa he owned due to his spouse's filing of a divorce suit, and the villa was later sold through a forced auction in 2023. The deposit could not be returned because the winning bid was set more than half the actual market price of the property. It was not a tin rent at the time the villa was rented." The prosecution decided not to indict Mr. A. The prosecution explained the reason by saying, “Whether or not a crime of fraud is established must be determined based on the time of the act, and we comprehensively considered precedents that the suspect cannot be punished even if he defaults on his obligations due to changes in economic circumstances thereafter.” Kim Sang-gu, an attorney at Daeryun Law Firm (Limited), who handled this case, said, “The crime of fraud is established only when there is an act of deception, mistake, disposition, damage to property, and intent to acquire something illegally.” He said, “The case is one in which Mr. A was unable to return the deposit due to an unexpected provisional seizure after he signed a lease agreement with the complainants.” He continued, “Even in a situation where financial conditions worsened due to a sudden change in circumstances, Mr. A sold the pre-sale rights to the apartment he owned and returned the deposit to some of the victims.” Digital Content Team[View full article] Landlord cornered by lease fraudsters... As a result of the prosecution investigation, ‘no charges’ (link) 2026-05-11T05:54:26.794Z https://www.daeryunlaw.com/en/broadcast/4729 Subcontracting, which is the act of a contractor (primary contractor) handing over work to a subcontractor (subcontractor) in order to undertake construction or manufacturing, is a form that frequently appears in the construction and manufacturing industries. The main contractor can reduce costs and be free from labor-management relations issues, and the subcontractor has the advantage of being provided with work and achieving growth through strengthening expertise. However, there are also many problems that arise surrounding subcontracts. A representative example is conflict between business owners. In most cases, disputes begin when the contractor presents unfair demands or conditions to the subcontractor. It is not only suppliers who suffer losses due to disputes. This is because the moment a legal battle begins, the contractor cannot avoid financial and time losses. Therefore, it is important for both the contractor as well as the contractor to be accurately aware of the matters to be aware of when entering into a contract. This is to prevent risks in advance so as not to be caught in a lawsuit due to an inappropriate contract and be subject to fines or legal punishment. When entering into a subcontract, there are four main things that the contractor should pay attention to. First, unfair contract conditions that infringe or limit the interests of the supplier must not be established. For example, it is considered an unfair special contract to require additional costs for matters not stated in writing or to pass on to the subcontractor the costs related to civil complaints or industrial accidents that should be borne by the contractor. Second, the subcontract price should not be unilaterally set lower than the general transaction price. In addition, if there is a contract with two or more suppliers, reducing the price uniformly or discriminatoryly without considering the management situation of each company is also prohibited. In addition, when concluding a subcontract through a private contract, the amount should not be set at an amount lower than the contractor's direct construction cost (material cost, labor cost, expenses, etc.), and in competitive bidding, the amount should not be set at an amount lower than the minimum bid price. The third thing to be aware of is that reduction of the subcontract price is prohibited in principle. It is illegal to unilaterally reduce the price set at the time of contract or to retroactively apply the agreement to products ordered before the price agreement was established. If a reduction is necessary, it must be based on a justifiable reason, and consultation with the supplier must take precedence. If you ignore this and reduce the price, you may become embroiled in a legal dispute. Lastly, the contractor cannot request technical data from the subcontractor. This is because the subcontractor's technical data is an important asset in a subcontract. Therefore, requests to provide this to the person or a third party are, in principle, prohibited. However, this is only possible as an exception if the contractor can prove a justifiable reason, and the relevant information must be written in writing and delivered to the subcontractor. The thing to keep in mind here is that the written document must contain specific details about the requested technical data. The purpose of issuing documents is to clearly recognize the specific scope of the technical data and the purpose of use by the contractor to prevent the subcontractor's technology from being unfairly leaked or stolen. If specific matters are not listed, it may be considered that documents have not been issued.

Infringement of public interest” A ruling was made that dismissed the landowner’s claim for usage fees in both the first and second trials, saying that the new owner’s belated imposition of tolls on land that had been used as a passageway for adjacent buildings for a long time constitutes an infringement of public interest. Suwon District Court 1st Civil Division (Presiding Judge Kim Sun-han, It was confirmed that Judges Cho Jeong-min and Cho Hyeon-joo) pronounced a ruling dismissing the plaintiff's appeal on January 8, with the same purpose as the first trial, in the appeal trial of a usage fee lawsuit filed by a landowner in Gyeonggi Province, Mr. A, against 30 people, including Mr. B, the building owner of an adjacent land. Mr. A took issue with the fact that part of the land purchased in 2019 was used as a road leading to Mr. B's buildings, etc., and paid 7 million won in usage fees accumulated previously and continued to pay monthly rent thereafter. They filed a lawsuit claiming usage fees, demanding payment of 300,000 won. In this lawsuit, the defendants, including Mr. B, the owner of an adjacent building, emphasized the ‘public nature’ of the road, saying, “The road in question connects each building owned by Mr. B and others to the public road, and people and vehicles entering these buildings and nearby residents have used the passage for a long time.” Judge Kim Min-cheol of the Suwon District Court, who presided over the first trial of this case, dismissed Mr. A’s toll claim. dismissed. Judge Kim Min-cheol ruled that “there was an implicit agreement on the waiver of exclusive use and benefit rights.” Exclusive use and benefit rights are the right of a landowner to prevent others from using or profiting from their land without permission, and are protected by law, but may be limited according to public interest needs. Mr. A, who was dissatisfied with the first trial ruling, immediately appealed, but the appellate court also decided that “the imposition of tolls on the land in this case is a violation of public interest” and dismissed the plaintiff’s appeal. It was dismissed. Attorney Park Se-hoon of Daeryun Law Firm, who represented Mr. B and others in this trial, said, “If the road could not be used, the free passage that had been maintained for decades would be restricted, threatening to infringe on the convenience of nearby residents.” He added, “If it was being used as a public road for residents’ passage, the land owner was able to win the appeal by proving that he could not exercise his exclusive use right.” Reporter Son Dong-wook (twson@lawleader.co.kr)[View full article] New owner of land used as a passageway for a long time claims ‘use fee’...

U.S. President Donald Trump announced that he would impose additional tariffs on automobiles and semiconductors following the imposition of a 25% tariff on imported steel and aluminum products. The so-called 'tariff war' of the second Trump administration is expected to intensify. As the U.S. tariff policy expands to various industries and other target countries, it is expected to have a significant impact on Korea, which has signed a free trade agreement (FTA). It is a time when it becomes important to prepare Korean export companies for universal tariffs. Daeryun International Trade, Arbitration and Customs Law Firm's International Trade, Arbitration and Customs Group has a variety of experts, including customs experts and accountants, collaborating with customs attorneys. In particular, team members with expertise in specific fields such as FTA origin verification, anti-dumping tariff response, and customs investigation response are providing customized consulting to companies. Customs expert Kim Dae-ryun, who recently joined the group, is a customs broker, bonded broker, origin manager, etc. As an expert in the customs field with a logistics manager qualification, on the 4th, he analyzed issues in the customs field and expressed his opinions on risk management strategies that companies should adopt in the global customs environment. The following is a Q&A with expert Kim Dae-ryun. Q. As trade between countries becomes more active, the need for experts in the customs field is increasing. What kind of work is usually performed? We advise on a wide range of tasks, including FTA consulting, product classification preliminary screening, customs assessment, and import/export requirements consulting, so that companies can proactively manage customs law risks that arise in the process of importing and exporting goods. In addition, we are responding to investigations that occur at customs, including customs investigations, customs dispute resolution, and foreign exchange inspections and investigations.Q. The customs field is a field that requires a variety of expertise, so there are likely to be many difficulties in handling the work. What difficulties do you have in performing your duties? Due to the nature of trade transactions, various goods are imported and exported, and transaction methods also vary. Understanding the product is essential in order to classify the product, which is the basis of customs duties. However, in the case of a newly developed product, there is a difficulty in that a lot of study is needed about the product and industry group.Q. As a customs expert, what are your opinions on recent customs issues? It is important to review the adequacy of the basic items of import declaration in the United States, such as item classification, dutiable value, and country of origin declaration, in accordance with the reasonable care obligation stipulated by the U.S. Customs Service (CBP). I think a more detailed response is needed, such as checking for roundabout export transactions of Chinese goods through the country, obtaining final confirmation of the country of origin through CBP Ruling, the U.S.'s authoritative interpretation of the origin, and managing risks related to additional tariffs.Q. What are the legal and institutional methods that can be used to reduce tariff risks? The areas where tariff disputes occur most often are product classification (HS CODE) and tariff evaluation. The U.S. CBP conducts preliminary screening for product classification and customs assessment as well as origin. To manage tariff risks, companies need to utilize the relevant system. In Korea, it is important to manage taxation risks in advance through pre-examination procedures such as pre-examination of product classification, pre-examination of taxable price determination method, and pre-examination of taxable price for special relationships.Q. Regarding customs issues, the role of the Daeryun International Trade, Arbitration, and Customs Group appears to be important. In relation to this, what services does the group currently provide? The group provides a variety of legal services, from origin consulting at the product production planning stage to pre-application for origin determination to CBP. Through these services, it is possible to determine whether additional tariffs are subject to additional tariffs by confirming the country of origin of exported goods, which greatly helps companies in establishing tariff strategies.Q. One last thing I would like to say. As the current global trade environment is rapidly changing, the impact of tariffs and trade regulations on corporate management is increasing. The pre-screening process often takes a long time. In particular, since the documents required for application are diverse and the contents are complex, it is recommended to seek help from an expert.

On this day, the Homeplus union said, "Homeplus' management crisis is a tragedy caused by MBK's greed," and stated, "Government intervention is urgently needed." He then pointed out, "Despite Homeplus' financial difficulties, MBK has continued to pay dividends on redeemable convertible preferred stock and has not kept its promise to invest 1 trillion won. In fact, it has abandoned Homeplus and is concentrating only on recovering the investment." The union said, "The company did not reveal any specific reasons or plans other than its vague stance of 'maintaining normal operations,' and conducted everything in secret and there was no discussion with the union before applying for corporate rehabilitation procedures." They added, "The livelihoods of approximately 20,000 union members and their families are at risk. “Union members are suffering from extreme anxiety,” he said. The union expressed concern that the start of the rehabilitation process would lead to store closures and mass layoffs, and predicted, “Once the rehabilitation process begins, layoffs, wage cuts, and welfare reductions will be inevitable in the name of reducing fixed costs, and the worst-case scenario, such as store closures and asset sales, will become a reality.” At the same time, he lamented, “After the acquisition of MBK, we have already reduced thousands of direct employees and there is no cost to reduce any more.” The company must submit a rehabilitation plan by June 3 according to the procedures. Sales continue to rise, but rehabilitation procedures have begun. MBK acquired Homeplus for 7.2 trillion won through a leveraged buyout (LBO) in September 2015. The union claimed, “Homeplus was responsible for the borrowings and interest incurred in this process, and the company’s management condition became extremely poor,” and “MBK indiscriminately sold stores to repay the loans and reduced the size of the business, which led to a decline in credit rating and loss of long-term competitiveness.” According to the Financial Supervisory Service’s electronic disclosure system, Homeplus sales are based on the fiscal year (March to February of the following year) ▲2021 It continues to increase, including KRW 6.4807 trillion ▲ KRW 6.6 trillion in 2022 ▲ KRW 6.9316 trillion in 2023. As of January 31st of this year, sales for the previous 12 months amounted to 7.0462 trillion won. However, operating profit during the same period turned into a deficit: ▲2021 (KRW 133.5 billion) ▲2022 (KRW 260.2 billion) ▲2023 (KRW 199.4 billion). The accumulated operating loss in the third quarter of last year was 157.1 billion won, a 20.6% increase compared to the same period last year. Choi Cheol-han, secretary general of the Homeplus branch of the supermarket union, pointed out, "Currently, Homeplus stores are doing well. However, the reason for applying for corporate rehabilitation is probably because MBK is trying to recover its investment." He added, "MBK has tried to sell Homeplus for several years, but has failed every time. We cannot rule out the possibility that they will attempt M&A at a low price through split sales during this rehabilitation process." Won-sang Kim, senior attorney and head of the Corporate Rehabilitation and Bankruptcy Center at Daeryun Law Firm, said, "M&A and acquisition of real estate assets are possible even during the rehabilitation process, and there have actually been cases where real estate assets were sold at low prices." He pointed out, “Even if it was evaluated at 4.7 trillion won, it would not be possible to guarantee whether it would realistically be sold or cashed out.” He added, “Separately, salaries and severance pay for executives and employees must continue to be paid with priority.” Reporter Hwang Jeong-won (jwhwang@mt.co.kr)[View full article] Homeplus labor union "Corporate rehabilitation is intended to recover MBK investment...

The First Division of the Supreme Court announced on the 4th that it had confirmed the lower court ruling on December 26 last year in the appellate trial of a loan lawsuit filed by Mr. A, in his 70s, against the business owner, Mr. B. In 2016, Mr. A, who got to know Mr. B, the CEO of the company where his son works, gave 200 million won to Mr. B on two occasions in 2018. Mr. A claimed that the amount was a loan. The claim was that Mr. B complained of financial difficulties and asked for a loan. Then, Mr. A filed a lawsuit claiming that only 100 million won was returned through his son's account, and the remaining 100 million won was not returned. However, Mr. B said that he had never requested a money loan, and that he only delivered the amount necessary for the business at his request. The first trial ruled in favor of Mr. B and said, "The defendant received a loan from the plaintiff.

"Although the defendant is the CEO of the company, the plaintiff's son also serves as an executive director and owns shares." He also said, "It appears that the plaintiff was also involved in the operation of the company through his son," and ruled, "The 200 million won that the defendant sent to the plaintiff cannot be considered a loan." Mr. A, who was dissatisfied with the first trial ruling, appealed, but the second trial court said, "The plaintiff's appeal is The Supreme Court also dismissed the appeal and confirmed the lower court's decision, saying, "The reason is not much different from the claim in the first trial." The Supreme Court also dismissed the appeal and confirmed the lower court's ruling. Attorney Lim Seon-jun of the Daeryun Law Firm, who represented Mr. B, said, "If it was a loan, as Mr. A claimed, if it was a loan, he should have lent the money and received interest for a certain period of time, but he has not once requested repayment from Mr. B. Even looking at these facts, Mr. A borrowed an account in Mr. B's name to transfer business funds to a company he owns." said.

On December 5 of last year, the Seoul Eastern District Prosecutors’ Office decided not to indict the company representative, Mr. A, who was sent on charges of fraud. Mr. A has been a victim for about a year since 2019. He received an investment of approximately 1.7 billion won from 13 people, but was accused of not returning the principal and interest. The plaintiffs claimed that Mr. A promised to pay a certain percentage of the profits compared to the investment, but did not even repay the principal and used the money for personal purposes. Mr. A completely denied the charges. They refuted that the failure to pay profits was because the borrowers did not repay the loans due to business difficulties due to COVID-19. At the same time, he emphasized that efforts are being made to collect the debt by requesting an order to seize the debt against the car owner who is in arrears. The prosecution determined that Mr. A was not guilty. The prosecution said, “After checking the transaction history of the company’s account, it was not confirmed that the suspect personally used the investment funds,” and “When looking at the financial statements, it is acknowledged that the company’s situation has worsened since 2019.” He added, “It appears that the court has accepted the request for a decision to seize and collect the debt against the borrower.” He added, “Considering the situation in which he informed the plaintiffs that there was a possibility of loss of principal, it cannot be said that the suspect deceived the plaintiffs.” He added. Attorney Park Seong-dong of Daeryun Law Firm, who represented Mr. A, said, “In order to constitute a crime of fraud, an act of deceiving the other party with intent must be included. In the case of Mr. A, it was acknowledged that he did not receive money due to the worsening business situation of the borrowers, so the charge was not established.” Reporter Kim Jong-cheol (jckim99@sportsseoul.com)[View full article] The CEO who received 1.7 billion won in investment and did not repay the principal and interest...

The seminar will be held on this day with a total of 4 topics. First, in the first session, attorney Choi Yun-jeong, a pharmaceutical expert with a pharmacist qualification, will give a presentation on the topic of ‘Pharmaceutical companies and CSOs’ expenditure report preparation and disclosure system.’ Attorney Yoon-Jeong Choi will explain the CSO reporting system, how to prepare expenditure reports, and related issues, focusing on the revised Pharmaceutical Affairs Act. In the second session, Attorney Gye-Jun Son, head of the Corporate Legal Group, will make a presentation. Attorney Gye-jun Son, a former secretary of the Fair Trade Commission, plans to introduce pharmaceutical rebate regulations under the Fair Trade Act and the Fair Trade Compliance Program (CP). The third session will be led by advisor Myeong-soon Choi, who is considered an authority in the medical and pharmaceutical industries. Advisor Choi Myeong-soon, who has worked for about 30 years at the National Health Insurance Corporation and the Health Insurance Review and Assessment Service, will give a presentation on the practice of post-management of supply details related to pharmaceutical distribution, expenditure reports, and administrative dispositions for drugs that disrupt the distribution order.

Daeryun Law Firm announced on the 27th that the Bank Jugong Apartment Reconstruction Association held a delegates' meeting for the lawsuit against the construction company on the 21st and appointed Daeryun as its legal representative. Previously, in April of last year, the union sued GS Engineering & Construction and HDC Hyundai Development Company, the existing construction companies. The contract with the consortium was terminated. They were selected as construction companies in 2019, but it was later confirmed that they were unable to narrow the difference in position between the union and the construction cost. Accordingly, the construction group requested the return of the bidding deposit of approximately 27.2 billion won that had been paid to the union in advance and damages for approximately 27.3 billion won in profits expected to be earned upon completion of construction. The union ultimately selected Daeryun as its legal representative after reviewing proposals received from a number of law firms. Daeryun has 7 members. We plan to form a dedicated team to respond. First, Park Jeong-gyu, head of the Construction and Real Estate Group, who previously served as a judge in the construction division, will be led by lawyers Kim Kwang-deok and Kim Hyeong-jin, both former members of large construction companies. Here, various experts, including Seon Yu-ju, a lawyer specializing in redevelopment and reconstruction registered with the Korean Bar Association, real estate lawyers Dae-hee Kang and lawyer Shin Young-sik, and lawyer Nam Young-jae, a former in-house lawyer at a POSCO Group affiliate, will also provide legal assistance. Attorney Dae-ryun Park, who represented the union, “The issue at issue in this lawsuit is to examine whether the cause of the cancellation of the construction contract is on the construction team or the union,” he said. He added, “We will highlight the fact that the construction team did not properly carry out the original contract and increased the construction cost beyond a reasonable range, and prove that the union is not at fault in the contract cancellation.” Reporter Hwang Jun-ik (plusik@tf.co.kr)[View full article] The Fact - Seongnam Bank Owners Association appoints Daeryun Law Firm...

According to the legal community on the 27th, the Busan District Prosecutors' Office on the 10th decided not to indict a man in his 50s, A, who was accused of child abuse. Mr. A was involved in an argument with his acquaintance B in August last year. He was accused of inflicting emotional abuse on children, including hitting Mr. B in front of his children. Article 17, Paragraph 5 of the Child Welfare Act strictly prohibits acts of emotional abuse that are harmful to children's mental health and development. ‘Emotional abuse’ also includes exposing children to domestic violence. However, Mr. A denied the charges. He said there was a slight scuffle with Mr. B at the time, but there was no assault or physical contact. At the same time, he emphasized that the assault scene is not properly revealed in the CCTV footage of the scene, and that there is no objective evidence other than the statement of the victim's family. In particular, it was argued that Mr. A's actions did not constitute emotional abuse. ‘Domestic violence’ refers to an act involving physical, mental, or property damage between family members, with the intention that Mr. A cannot be considered a family member. The police reported that Mr. A was guilty of child abuse and forwarded the case, but the prosecution decided not to indict him. The prosecution explained, “If we view all of these as ‘acts of emotional abuse’ defined by the Child Welfare Act simply because the child has been exposed to violence and other acts, virtually all criminal acts that occur in front of the child will be included in the scope of punishment, resulting in an over-expansion of criminality.” He then said, “If the suspect is a mere third party and did not inflict direct violence or verbal abuse on the child victim, the scope of application must be reasonably interpreted in consideration of the legislative purpose and language of the Child Welfare Act when determining whether or not there is a charge.” Attorney Jihye Kwon of the Daeryun Law Firm, who represented Mr. A, said, “A ‘family member’ is defined as a spouse or former spouse, a direct ascendant, a cohabiting relative, etc., and Mr. A did not fall under this category.” “There was no intention to inflict emotional abuse on his children, and it appears that the prosecution judged this situation comprehensively,” he said.

Controversy arose when it was revealed that the companies under investigation had been paying medical professionals' personal expenses or indirectly providing rebates through sales promotion agencies (CSOs). In this way, 'rebates', contrary to their original purpose of returning excessive amounts to buyers, have recently been abused as a bribe to promote sales. Accordingly, the government has come up with several measures to eradicate rebates. A representative example is the introduction of the ‘double punishment system’ in 2010, which punishes both those who provide illegal rebates and those who receive them. However, as the rebate issue was not easily resolved, the government took out the sword again. The CSO reporting system has been implemented in earnest since October of last year, and starting this year, a system will be implemented to disclose ‘expenditure reports’ containing details of the status of economic benefits provided to medical personnel. As a result, interest in compliance (CP) within the industry, from rebate application targets to investigation response, has increased more than ever. ◆ Linkage of multi-disciplinary groups in medical pharmaceuticals and corporate law… In response to the legal demand for complex pharmaceutical rebate case response, Daeryun Law Firm (Limited) (CEOs Kim Kuk-il and Ko Byeong-jun) has begun strengthening its pharmaceutical rebate response team. Daeryun plans to do its best on rebate-related issues by linking multi-disciplinary groups such as medical pharmaceuticals and corporate legal affairs within the corporation. The pharmaceutical rebate response team, which requires high expertise, includes experts familiar with each field, including pharmacists and fair trade. They were assigned. Advisor Choi Myeong-soon, who worked for about 30 years as deputy director of the National Health Insurance Corporation and head of the Gwangju branch of the Health Insurance Review and Assessment Service; Kye-jun Son, former secretary of the Fair Trade Commission and head of the corporate law group at the 36th Judicial Research and Training Institute; Lee Seo-hyung, head of the Pharmaceutical, Bio and Healthcare Center, who worked as a senior researcher at the Law Research Institute of Seoul National University and a research professor at Ewha Womans University Life and Medical Law Research Institute; Yun-jeong Choi, a lawyer and pharmacist who holds a pharmacist's license and specializes in medical cases. In addition to holding a license, attorney Lee Il-hyung, who has a long experience as an in-house lawyer at the pharmaceutical company Celltrion, is leading the team. ◆ Collaboration with advisors from the HIRA and experts in fair trade law, and legal consulting to strengthen compliance. Advisor Choi Myeong-soon is a veteran in the field of health insurance policy who has played an important role in establishing the national health insurance system, including review and due diligence of health insurance nursing care benefits and policy establishment. In particular, while working at the Pharmaceutical Management Information Center, he established a national pharmaceutical statistical infrastructure and played an important role in the entire process from production to distribution and management. Advisor Choi plans to collaborate with professional lawyers to review legal risks across pharmaceutical rebates. Group leader Gye-jun Son, who has extensive practical experience in responding to rebates, was in charge of the fair trade field, including collusion and unfair trade practices, while serving at the Fair Trade Commission. He has provided advice on rebates as well as CP compliance management in the pharmaceutical industry, utilizing his ability to respond to actual Fair Trade Commission investigations and deliberations. Attorney Seo-hyung Lee, who heads the Pharmaceutical, Bio, and Healthcare Center, is qualified as a pharmacist and patent attorney, and has successfully resolved rebate-related advice and lawsuits. In particular, he is expected to play an important role within the team as he is a person well-versed in the circumstances of the pharmaceutical industry. Attorney Yoon-Jeong Choi, who is active in the medical pharmaceutical group, has extensive knowledge of related laws and procedures and is able to respond quickly to issues in the pharmaceutical industry. Attorney Il-Hyung Lee, a former in-house lawyer at Celltrion, has been working in-house (Celltrion) on interpretation of fair competition regulations, review of clinical research contracts, and in-house training. In particular, he has experience winning a patent lawsuit against a foreign pharmaceutical company, Company P, and is active in various lawsuits in the medical pharmaceutical field. Managing CEO Kook-il Kim said, “During medical tax investigations, an intense investigation is conducted regarding the existence of rebates. For this reason, explanations must be made quickly, but there were many voices calling for expert help in preparing various materials.” He added, “We provide legal consulting to strengthen compliance of pharmaceutical companies and CSOs as well as responding to cases such as tax investigations and criminal proceedings. “We will become a law firm that provides the best legal services, including suggesting corporate direction,” he said. Meanwhile, Daeryun Medical Pharmaceutical Group plans to hold a seminar on March 7 under the theme of ‘Issues and practices of compliance in the pharmaceutical field.’ Applications for seminar participation can be made through the Daeryun website starting on the 26th.

Recently, controversy arose when it was reported that the late MBC weather caster Oyo Anna made an extreme choice after suffering from 'workplace bullying' during her lifetime. It is known that the deceased had been subject to verbal abuse from co-workers for a long time, and although he confessed his grievances to company officials at the time, he was not properly protected. Afterwards, MBC announced that it would begin an investigation into the truth, but the criticism does not appear to be subsiding. According to Article 76-3 of the Labor Standards Act, if anyone becomes aware of workplace harassment, he or she may report the fact to the employer, and the employer must conduct an investigation into the parties without delay. It is part of the so-called 'Workplace Harassment Prohibition Act' that has been in effect since 2019, and in order to fall within the scope of this law, the person concerned must first be classified as an 'employee' under the Labor Standards Act. Therefore, it has been constantly pointed out that some non-regular workers, such as freelancers, who are not normally considered 'workers', are bound to fall into the blind spot of the anti-workplace harassment law. Mr. Oh also worked as a ‘freelancer’ at a broadcasting company. The problem is that many broadcasting companies employ a large number of freelancers to manage their workforce. According to the 'Status of Irregular Workers and Freelancers in Broadcasting Companies' report published by the Korea Labor and Society Research Institute in 2020, out of 16,676 workers in the domestic broadcasting industry, 6,999 are irregular workers and freelance workers, which is 42% of the total respondents. Accordingly, the party and government began enacting related laws to resolve blind spots in the law. The People's Power Party and the Ministry of Employment and Labor have decided to enact a special law (tentative name 'Oyo Anna Law') that allows punishment for serious workplace harassment even if it occurs only once. In addition, People Power Party lawmaker Kim Jang-gyeom proposed a bill to amend the Labor Standards Act, which would recognize the “worker self-respect” of freelancers such as weather casters and allow them to be subject to workplace harassment regulations, separate from the enactment of a special law. Although it appears that related measures are being prepared one by one, there are still issues that need to be resolved. The most urgent thing is the process of objectively establishing standards for judging bullying (persistence and repetition). In addition, it seems necessary to revise and supplement the legal provisions to ensure that there is no bias in the company's actions when an incident of bullying occurs within the company. I hope that the day will come when all workers can be protected through effective legislation.

Sentenced to 3 years in prison Appellate trial "There was no additional investigation into the surrender... Considering the fact that some of the damages were repaid" A soldier who embezzled hundreds of millions of won while working in accounting at a military unit had his sentence commuted in the appeals court. According to the legal community on the 26th, the 6-1 Criminal Division of the Seoul High Court was indicted on the 14th on charges of violation of the law on aggravated punishment for specific crimes. At the appellate trial of Mr. A, a soldier in his 40s, the original trial ruling, which sentenced him to three years in prison, was overturned and he was sentenced to one year and six months in prison. Mr. A was accused of embezzling approximately 200 million won 564 times over a period of one year by registering his account in the transportation fee payment system for full-time reservists in 2021. At the time, Mr. A committed this crime by unauthorized access to the administrator account of the unit's fund management system. It was confirmed. The first trial sentenced Mr. A to 3 years in prison. The court said, "Despite the fact that he must perform his official duties with morality and integrity, the nature of the crime is bad in that it caused a loss of the national budget amounting to 200 million won," and "The embezzled money obtained was used for personal purposes and no loss has been recovered to date." Mr. A filed an appeal on the grounds of unfair sentencing. Mr. A surrendered to the military police before the investigation began, but the investigation was not conducted. He claimed that he did not do so. In addition, he appealed for leniency, saying that he had repaid part of the damage through the insured insurance. The appellate court ruled that the sentence of the original trial was heavy and unjust. “Even though the head of the investigation team heard the defendant’s surrender, he sent him back to wait for the attendance request and did not conduct any additional investigation,” the court explained. “This act of the defendant is equivalent to surrender, which is a special mitigating factor in the sentencing guidelines.” It added, “The defendant’s insurance contract “100 million won of the damage was recovered through insurance payment,” he said, adding, “In addition, we took into account the fact that the defendant used most of the embezzled money for living expenses, including raising children, and the fact that he is reflecting on the crime,” and stated the reason for sentencing. Attorney Kim Young-soo of Daeryun Law Firm, who represented Mr. “We were able to receive a significant reduction in sentence by emphasizing the fact that the damages were repaid along with the claim that self-reliance was established,” he said.

Suwon District Court Pyeongtaek Branch Civil Division 1 (Presiding Judge Jo Jeong-woong, Chief Judge) It was confirmed that Judges Young-min Jeong and Yun-jin Kim) decided on December 18 last year to dismiss the application for a provisional injunction filed by factory owner A against landowner B. In this lawsuit, Mr. A claimed, “Mr. B is blocking the traffic by putting up stakes on the only road leading to his factory,” and “Mr. He emphasized, “The right to freedom of passage has been violated.” In response, Mr. B countered, saying, “The fence along the road was frequently damaged by vehicles heading to Mr. A’s factory, so to prevent this, we simply installed props to encourage safe driving of vehicles.” In addition, he requested that the claim be dismissed, saying, “If you reduce your speed and adjust your turning radius, you can pass through the passage without any problems.” The Pyeongtaek branch of the Suwon District Court, which heard this case, ruled in Mr. B’s hand. The court accepted. The court ruled that “there may be inconveniences in the passage of vehicles driven by creditors due to the piles installed in the passage,” but that “there is no hindrance to the passage of people or general vehicles.” He then dismissed Mr. A’s claim, saying, “Although we received permission for use from the previous owner, this cannot lead to approval from the current owner, the debtor.” Attorney Park Hyeong-geon of Daeryun Law Firm, who represented Mr. B in this trial, said, “For the prohibition of obstruction of passage to be granted, the creditor’s actions must be taken into account.” He said, “There must be circumstances that show that the debtor’s freedom of passage was violated, such as interfering with the debtor’s daily life.” He also said, “Mr. A passed through the section without any problems even after the piles were installed, so the court appears to have ruled that there were no justifiable circumstances.” Reporter Son Dong-wook (twson@lawleader.co.kr)[View full article] Request for temporary injunction to remove piles that ‘impede vehicle movement’...

On December 31 last year, the Seoul Central District Prosecutors' Office decided not to indict A, a man in his 50s, who was suspected of violating the law on the punishment of acts such as arranging prostitution (prostitution). In 2022, Mr. A was accused of using a smartphone chat application to meet a woman, B, and engage in prostitution. Mr. A completely denied the charges. He said that due to the nature of his job, he had to use his body a lot, so he just called a visiting masseuse to get a massage. At the same time, he emphasized that because the purpose was to receive a massage, he was not even interested in the massage therapist's personal information. The police who received the case sent Mr. A on the suspicion of prostitution, but the prosecution determined that Mr. A was not guilty. The prosecution said, "As a result of tracking the suspect's cell phone location at the time, the history of cell phone use at the location where the incident occurred was not confirmed." Attorney Park Seong-yoon of Daeryun Law Firm, who represented Mr. A, said, "In order to charge prostitution, evidence is needed that money, lodging, etc. were provided in return for sexual intercourse. At the time of the incident, Mr. A fell asleep while receiving a massage after drinking alcohol and had no recollection of anything other than calling the masseuse." He added, "If Mr. A had intended to engage in illegal prostitution, there would be no trace." “I would have made a cash transaction to avoid that,” he said.

Daeryun Law Firm established the public interest association ‘Relationship Law’ on the 25th and will begin full-scale public interest activities for the underprivileged who are in the blind spot of the law. ‘Relationship Law’ is a name that combines the ‘relationship’ between people and the ‘law’ of a law firm, and contains the meaning of strengthening social solidarity and realizing public value within the fence of the law. Through this, we plan to help vulnerable groups in desperate need of legal support and contribute to creating a fairer and more just society. In particular, former Prosecutor General Kim Oh-soo was appointed as the first chairman of the Relationship Law. Chairman Kim is a member of the legal profession who entered public service as a prosecutor at the Incheon District Prosecutors' Office in 1994 and served as Vice Minister of Justice (61st) and Prosecutor General (44th).

Construction company says, “Insurance has nothing to do with compensation for survivors.” Attention is focused on the legal responsibility of the construction company and the developer regarding the fire accident at the new construction site of the Busan Banyan Tree, in which 6 people died and 27 were injured. According to the Busan Police Agency on the 24th, Samjeong Enterprise, the construction company of the Busan Banyan Tree, exceeded the construction company's responsibility completion deadline in November last year and received approval for use of the building on December 19 of the same year. After receiving approval for use equivalent to completion. Until the accident, two months later, about 780 workers from 35 subcontractors belonging to the constructor and developer were carrying out large-scale work simultaneously at the site. Interior materials piled up here and there acted as kindling at the time of the fire and spread the flames in an instant, making firefighting and rescue operations difficult. The police have been conducting a large-scale investigation, including search and seizure of the constructor, developer, and subcontractors immediately after the accident, but the cause of the fire is still unknown. The responsible party was not clearly identified. The scale of human casualties, including the death of six people in this fire, is high, and construction is delayed, so it is expected that a huge cost burden will be incurred in handling the accident. According to the industry, the site received approval for use from the Gijang County Office in December of last year, and the construction insurance purchased in 2022 expired. As the construction insurance was automatically canceled, the developer, Rupentis, is known to have signed up related insurance to compensate for damage due to facility loss or fire accidents. However, the construction was completed. As opinions differ over who will manage the building, it is unclear whether insurance will be paid. The legal community predicts that the contractor who managed and supervised the construction site will be held more responsible for this fire accident. Park Dong-il, CEO of Daeryun Law Firm, said, "In this case, the legal judgment is expected to vary depending on whether the contractor and developer fulfill their safety management obligations." “There is a high possibility that the construction company that managed and supervised it will be pointed out as the main responsible party,” he predicted. Attorney Lim Byeong-jin of Taesol Law Firm, who is the legal representative of one bereaved family, also said, “Based on the scale of the accident and related statements, it seems difficult for the construction company to avoid responsibility.” He added, “Keeping in mind the possibility that the main contractor (Samjeong Enterprises) may evade responsibility by cutting its tail using subcontracting relationships, etc., we plan to respond by applying the Serious Accident Punishment Act so that the responsible party can take legal responsibility.” Depending on who it is, a legal battle may continue in the future over whether insurance money will be paid. If the insurance company pays the insurance premium first to resolve the accident, the insurance companies can later claim the right to compensation from the person who caused the fire. However, Samjeong Enterprises' position is that the insurance does not affect compensation for the bereaved families. An official from Samjeong Enterprises said, "The operator of the completed building is the developer." “We signed a contract with a company and were inspecting it,” he explained. He added, “Insurance and industrial accident compensation and other bereaved family compensation will be paid regardless of whether or not they are insured, and Samjeong plans to fulfill its responsibility to the bereaved families as the subject of construction.” Separately, the bereaved families are guaranteed about 25 to 43 million won in insurance costs through the Citizen Safety Insurance, which citizens and residents are automatically enrolled in. In addition, according to the Disaster Relief Act, funeral expenses can be supported up to a maximum of 15 million won. Meanwhile, the police expect that a report on the forensic results will be released within this week, and plan to brief the results of the interim investigation, including the cause of the fire, next week.

The victim's side said, "It is a disability that is close to blindness, which hinders the future... The perpetrator shows no remorse." A college student in his 20s, who caused his friend to lose his eyesight by hitting him in the face during an argument and causing him to lose his eyesight, was sentenced to prison. The 11th Criminal Division of the Suwon District Court sentenced Mr. A, who was put on trial on charges of serious bodily injury in December of last year, to one year in prison. Mr. A is a roommate in a university dormitory located in Gyeonggi-do in March 2023. He is accused of hitting Mr. B in the face and causing serious injury during an argument. As a result of this accident, Mr. B was diagnosed with an orbital fracture and underwent emergency surgery. Afterwards, the visual acuity of the operated left eye fell below 0.02, resulting in permanent vision impairment close to blindness. Immediately after the incident, it was revealed that Mr. A was only focused on evading the situation by ordering Mr. B to “walk around as usual and (if anyone) asks, just give a quick answer.” At the trial, Mr. B appealed for severe punishment for Mr. A. Mr. B's side emphasized, "The victim, who was a promising college soccer player, suffered permanent disability and had to give up his dream due to this incident, but the perpetrator is not showing any serious attitude of remorse." The court found that the degree of damage suffered by Mr. B due to Mr. A's assault was serious and sentenced him to prison. The court stated the reason for sentencing, saying, “The defendant inflicted serious injuries on the victim that caused permanent loss of vision, so the crime is not good,” and “The victim is at risk of not being able to continue living as an athlete, which she has worked hard to do for a long time. In addition, the victim is appealing for a severe punishment commensurate with the defendant’s guilt.” Attorney Jeong Seok-hyun of Daeryun Law Firm, who is the legal representative of person B, said, “Mr. “It is reasonable to say that there was intent, even if only vaguely, and that there was a possibility of foreseeing the serious injury of blindness,” he said. “Considering that Mr. B is currently in a serious condition, about to be diagnosed with blindness in his left eye, Mr. A should be punished appropriately.” He added, “In this case, compensation for damages is also in progress,” and “Based on this ruling, we will do our best to help Mr. B achieve a favorable result.” Reporter Kim Jong-cheol (jckim99@sportsseoul.com)[View full article] College student who caused blindness by hitting friend sentenced to 1 year in prison (link) 2026-05-13T01:10:12.889Z https://www.daeryunlaw.com/en/broadcast/4697 A man in his 70s, who was handed over to the prosecution on charges of trespassing and searching the temple's main office, was cleared of charges. According to Daeryun Law Firm on the 24th, the Suncheon Branch of the Gwangju District Prosecutors' Office decided not to indict a man in his 70s, Mr. He is accused of trespassing with his family into the temple office where Mr. He explained, “The religious office was a place where believers could visit freely at the time,” and “From the CCTV footage, it appears that the complainant did not specifically restrain the suspect from entering.” The charge of searching the residence was also considered insufficient evidence. The prosecution said, “Looking at the CCTV footage, the suspect stayed in the religious office for only 20 seconds, so it is difficult to say that every corner of the house was searched.” He added, “No video was filmed inside the room, and the complainant did not directly witness what the suspect did.” Oh Sang-wan, a lawyer at the Daeryun Law Firm who represented Mr. A, explained, "The principle is that whether or not it constitutes a trespass in a residential trespass case is judged based only on the objective and external actions at the time of entry." He continued, "It appears that the non-indictment decision was made taking into account the fact that the door to the incident location was not locked and that Mr. B did not block the entry."

Bank Jugong Apartment in Seongnam-si, Gyeonggi-do, which completed selecting a construction company last month, has entered into a lawsuit this time. Last year, the existing construction company, GS E&C and HDC Hyundai Development Company consortium, began responding to a lawsuit filed for damages due to termination of the contract. Union members are paying close attention to the size of the additional contribution that will be determined based on the outcome of future lawsuits. According to the maintenance industry on the 24th, the Bank Main Construction Reconstruction Union held a representative meeting to select a law firm to respond to lawsuits from existing construction companies on the 21st and selected Daeryun Law Firm. It is known that Daeryun is forming a team dedicated to bank construction, mainly composed of lawyers from large law firms and large construction companies. This litigation battle arose in April last year when the bank construction contractor union terminated the construction contract with the GS Engineering & Construction and HDC Hyundai Development Company consortium. The union and the construction group were unable to reach an agreement on increasing construction costs and extending the construction period, leading to termination. Accordingly, the construction team requested the return of the bid deposit (loan money) and compensation for damages for construction profits. The construction group appointed Yulchon Law Firm. A member of the bank owner's union said, "Proposals were received from six law firms, and Daeryun had the largest number of lawyers, and there were also attorneys with backgrounds in construction and reconstruction." He added, "This lawsuit is important as tens of millions of won in additional contributions per household are involved." Delay damages were claimed. The union sees late interest and compensation for damages as issues rather than the return of the loan. In particular, it is pointed out that at the construction company selection general meeting in December 2018, the construction group promised to build a 35-story building, but did not keep it, and was selected as the construction company by deceiving the union. The loan can be repaid with POSCO E&C's bid deposit (KRW 35 billion). Daeryun emphasized that the important reason for selecting the construction company for the union was the other party's unreasonable promise, and proposed a response strategy to dismiss all claims by the other party by acknowledging that the contract was terminated due to the other party's fault. If the union loses this lawsuit, it is expected that additional contributions of 10 to 20 million won per household will be made depending on the amount of damages. In addition to bank construction, an increasing number of reconstruction and redevelopment sites have replaced construction companies due to the recent surge in construction costs. The Seoul High Court is scheduled to issue a ruling in April on the lawsuit claiming damages filed by DL E&C against the redevelopment association in Sindang District 8, Jung-gu, Seoul. In June of last year, both DL E&C and the union objected to the results of the first trial, and the trial was transferred to the High Court. In the first trial, a ruling was issued requiring the union to compensate DL E&C about 8 billion won. Some of the land owned by the association was also put up for auction. The 3rd block reconstruction association in Banpo Jugong Complex 1, Seocho-gu is continuing a lawsuit against HDC Hyundai Development Company, the previous construction company, for damages. Here too, due to a conflict between specialized design and construction costs, the main contract was not concluded and Samsung C&T was selected as the new construction company. The second trial is currently in progress, and the union lost in the first trial. Last month, the Bangbae District 5 Reconstruction Association, where Hyundai Engineering & Construction is the construction company, paid 52.5 billion won in compensation to the previous construction company, the GS Engineering & Construction Consortium (GS Engineering & Construction, POSCO E&C, and Lotte Engineering & Construction). It has been 7 years since the construction contract was canceled in 2017. An industry official said, "If the union reflects the burden and compensation due to litigation costs in the sale price, the sale price will inevitably rise, and the damage will fall on union members and general sellers." Reporter Hwang Jun-ik (plusik@tf.co.kr)[View full article] Contractor cancellation boomerang… Bank Jugong enters litigation with GS and HDC (Click here) 2026-05-09T16:30:34.966Z https://www.daeryunlaw.com/en/broadcast/4695 When representing a lawsuit, there are cases where the plaintiff and the defendant reach an extreme confrontation, but then reach a dramatic agreement during the trial, ending the trial through mediation or reconciliation. Mediation is a process of resolving the dispute by a neutral third party intervening between the parties to the dispute and reaching an agreement, while reconciliation refers to an agreement between the plaintiff and the defendant to end the lawsuit by gradually giving in to each other's claims. Recently, even in criminal cases, criminal disputes are resolved amicably at the prosecutor's stage and victims are harmed. Criminal mediation is actively being carried out to achieve substantial recovery. If the feelings toward the other party have worsened too much, there are some who want to conclude with the court's ruling, but as the litigation process progresses, the emotional wounds may grow beyond control due to written attacks on each other, or the desired result may not be obtained as expected. Therefore, the above dispute resolution plan can be very effective if mutual concessions are made in a win-win way. Let me tell you about a divorce mediation case that I remember. In a case where it was thought that mediation would be established without much difficulty as issues such as property division were not major issues, the respondent (husband) began attacking the applicant (wife) for her mistakes, leading to mutual slander, and mediation was not established, turning it into a divorce suit. As the lawsuit continued for nearly two years and both sides' emotions reached their peak, the plaintiff and defendant reached a dramatic agreement, and the lawsuit was ended through a mediation report. I later checked with the client to see how the agreement was reached. It is said that the daughter's earnest request was for her mother and father to stop fighting. Although the plaintiff and the defendant will become separated through divorce, I remember saying that as the daughter's parents, they made a very wise decision considering their relationship that will remain forever. Among various school violence cases, we often see cases where very close friends become estranged by hurtful words toward each other and verbal violence and other incidents are reported. In these cases, I, as a parent raising children, am also very saddened. In particular, there is no opportunity for serious conversation or voluntary reconciliation between the two students. In cases where there has not been one, we first create an opportunity for dialogue and try to find a point of agreement, because no one wants measures to be taken while leaving only scars on both students' minds. Accordingly, the author has observed that the issue was resolved on its own without holding a school violence committee through an agreement reached between the parties a day before the school violence committee was held. As I watch my children, who are elementary school students, have different opinions and fights break out every morning, I feel that it is impossible to expect conflicts and disputes to completely disappear from human life. This is especially true because the history of mankind is called the history of war, as there have been numerous wars since mankind opened the horizon of history. On the other hand, we also know the history of many countries in which individuals and communities have been restored through forgiveness and reconciliation in the ruins of war, and have achieved remarkable development. Numerous conflicts and disputes can occur frequently, broadly between political groups and social classes, and narrowly between family members and acquaintances who meet each other in everyday life, and there are many ways to resolve them. However, in order to minimize unnecessary emotional expenditure and focus on one's precious life rather than conflict and move toward a better future, it is better to solve problems through mediation and reconciliation. It may be a more reliable shortcut.[View full article] [Monday Column] An era in which adjustment and reconciliation are necessary (Shortcut) 2026-05-08T08:09:35.957Z https://www.daeryunlaw.com/en/broadcast/4694 Following the U.S. and EU, the standards for determining probable origin are different for Korean exports... Strategic response is needed considering additional tariff risks and substantial modification criteria U.S. President Donald Trump (pictured) announced on the 11th that he would impose a 25% tariff on all steel and aluminum products imported from foreign countries. Just over a week after signing an executive order imposing an additional tariff of 10% on Chinese products and 25% on products from Mexico and Canada based on the International Emergency Economic Powers Act (IEEPA), and abolishing the duty exemption for small items (under $800), another additional measure was decided. The 'Trump tariff war' appears to be intensifying as the target does not discriminate between hostile countries and allies and friendly countries. President Trump has been pursuing a tariff retaliation strategy since his first term in office. During the first term of office, additional tariffs were imposed based on Articles 201 (emergency import restrictions) and 301 (response to unfair trade practices) of the Trade Act, and Article 232 (tariffs related to national security) of the Trade Expansion Act. The second administration is using more diverse laws in the tariff war, such as imposing additional tariffs based on IEEPA. The United States' measures to impose additional tariffs are determined by the country of origin of the goods. Accordingly, we would like to take a look at the standards for determining the country of origin in the United States. Standards for determining the origin of goods subject to additional tariffs The standards for determining the origin of goods subject to additional tariffs are determined in accordance with the ‘substantial modification standard’ principle of the Code of Federal Regulations (CFR). The standard for substantial transformation is the principle that when manufacturing processes in two or more countries are connected, the country where the last substantial transformation occurred is the country of origin. The main considerations are as follows: ① Whether the name, characteristics, and use of the intermediate product have changed ② Whether the intermediate product already contains the essential characteristics of the final product ③ Whether the use of the intermediate product is pre-determined to be used in the final product ④ Whether the intermediate product has lost its identity in the subsequent processing process ⑤ Whether the assembly/processing process corresponds to simple assembly/processing Even if a certificate of origin is legally issued for exported goods in accordance with the Korea-US FTA, they may be determined to be made in China according to the US's substantive modification standards and may be subject to additional tariffs. Not only must it be recognized that the origin determination criteria (tariff change, value-added standards, etc.) under the Korea-US FTA Agreement are different from the origin determination criteria for additional tariff imposition measures, but it is also necessary to determine the origin by confirming the main considerations of the substantive modification criteria in preparation for the origin verification by the U.S. Customs Service. Case of determination of origin by the U.S. Customs Service (CBP) ① Determination of origin of forklift (N302755) Let’s look at the case of determination of origin of forklift, where the engine, an intermediate product, originates from the United States, and the remaining parts originate from China. Although manufactured in China, the U.S. importer explained that the engine is the core component that gives the forklift its essential characteristics and that the processing in China is merely an auxiliary means of assembling the components. However, CBP determined that the final country of origin is China, saying that the engine does not possess the essential characteristics of a forklift, and since a forklift cannot operate without various components produced in China, the engine must also be considered at the same level as these. ② Determination of the country of origin of the digital thermometer (N302764) The dual probe sensor, which is an intermediate product, is made in Israel, and the digital thermometer with all remaining electrical components made in China was confirmed to be made in Israel during the country of origin determination procedure. This is because determining the country of origin of products produced in multiple countries requires a comprehensive review of whether new product names, characteristics, and uses have been created. It was recognized that the Israeli-made sensor embodies the core technology to perform the essential functions of a thermometer and that it contains the essential characteristics of a thermometer. President Trump is predicting that he will impose additional tariffs on the European Union (EU) due to the trade deficit. Korea, one of the major exporting countries, recorded a surplus of $127.8 billion in exports to the United States last year and a trade balance of $55.69 billion, so Trump's attention is expected to turn to Korea soon. Domestic import and export companies will need to pay attention to and manage not only 'preferential origin' regulations such as FTA, but also 'non-preferential origin' regulations, which are the basis for additional tariff imposition measures by the United States.

A ruling was made that there is no need to return the contribution and settlement amount in the case of liquidation of the partnership contract due to using up all the investment amount due to operating deficit while doing business as a partnership and failing to perform profit settlement, etc. Judge Ryu Ji-mi, independent of civil affairs 8, Ansan Branch, Suwon District Court, ruled that the franchise It was confirmed that the plaintiff's claim was dismissed in December of last year in a lawsuit filed by Mr. A, a party to the partnership contract, against Mr. B, a partner. Mr. A and others agreed to a franchise partnership agreement with Mr. B around March 2022 and jointly acquired a shopping mall located in Seongnam-si, Gyeonggi-do. In the partnership agreement, Mr. A and others decided not to participate in management and only provide various funds such as shopping mall purchase costs, interior construction costs, and franchise fees. Mr. B agreed to take responsibility for the overall management of the business. Regarding the distribution of profits, Mr. B agreed to distribute the sales profits in a certain ratio and then pay them to Mr. A and others. However, unlike in the early days of the business, as interest rates rose, Mr. B was unable to pay the profits he had previously provided. When losses occurred, Mr. A and others filed a lawsuit for return of investment, claiming that Mr. B, a business associate, should return approximately 240 million won, including the entire investment they had supported, unpaid profits, interest, etc. In this trial, defendant B said, “As the interest rate on loans has increased, profits from commercial operation alone are insufficient.” He argued, “As the deficit continued, I tried to compensate for the loss by taking out business loans and investing personal expenses.” Judge Ryu Ji-mi of the Ansan branch of the Suwon District Court, who heard the case, ruled, “Acknowledging the special situation of operating deficit, Mr. B has no obligation to return the investment, etc.” “He made the deposit and used it for expenses, but it appears that he was unable to avoid an operating deficit,” the ruling said. “Therefore, it cannot be said that the defendant has an investment amount to return to the plaintiffs.” Attorney Jaehyung Lee of Daeryun Law Firm (Limited), who represented the defendant B in this lawsuit, said, “Even if the commercial partnership has been dissolved, only the reduced balance of the investment is required to be returned pursuant to Article 85 of the Commercial Act,” and “Mr. “We were in a difficult situation, and although we tried various measures, it was difficult to avoid a deficit, so it should be said that there is no contribution or settlement amount for Mr. B to return since the amount exceeding the investment amount was already spent,” he explained.

In December 2024, the School Violence Committee will investigate the victim and the victim A, who is accused of bullying a friend who was attending another school. It was confirmed that the decision was made to prohibit contact, intimidation, and retaliation against the student who reported/accused (No. 2), 6 hours of school volunteer work (No. 3), and 6 hours of special education (No. 5), and ordered the guardian to complete 4 hours of special education. In September 2024, Ms. School violence includes not only physical and verbal violence against students inside and outside of school, but also cyberbullying such as bullying and emotional harassment through SNS. At the time, it was found that Ms. B suffered group verbal violence from a number of students whom she had never met in person. It was revealed that Ms. A and other perpetrators humiliated and sexually shamed Ms. B by making disparaging remarks about her family and sexual profanity. In particular, Ms. B apologized several times for breaking her promise, but Ms. A and her group did not stop their collective harassment. In the end, the incident became known belatedly when Ms. B, who could not endure the bullying, told her parents about it. Ms. B's legal representative, who accompanied the school violence committee, said, "The violence suffered by Ms. B was at a level that could not be dismissed as a simple fight between friends," and emphasized, "The indiscriminate verbal violence that many people used against Ms. B is a crime that should never be tolerated." The Daejeon Metropolitan City Western Office of Education's School Violence Committee accepted these claims and issued a statement against Ms. A, who led the school violence. Disciplinary action was decided. Attorney Kim Jin-joo of Daeryun Law Firm, who represented B, a victim of school violence, said, “Most students these days have electronic devices such as cell phones, so cyber school violence is occurring frequently.” He also explained, “The level of crimes such as online bullying, blackmail, coercion, and sexual violence are also increasing.” Attorney Kim Jin-ju continued, “Due to the nature of online cyber school bullying, anonymous communication is frequent, so it is necessary to keep the details of the damage. “It is most important to secure screenshots, etc.,” he said, adding, “If you receive a grade 4 or higher as a result of academic violence committee disciplinary action, a record will remain in your life record, and it will remain for a certain period of time even after graduation, which may affect college entrance exams.” Reporter Son Dong-wook (twson@lawleader.co.kr)[View full article] High school student who committed ‘cyber school violence’ by breaking a promise...

This is what happened because we ignored the side effects and implemented it recklessly.. It's an expected result..” (AConstruction company official)2022The Serious Accident Punishment Act, introduced in 2018, takes effect this year. 3celebrated the year. As the name suggests, the purpose is to prevent major disasters, but the diagnosis is that it is not actually effective.. It was revealed that casualties at construction sites nationwide have actually increased.. The focus should be on disaster prevention, but there are concerns that the enactment of laws focusing on strong punishment has reduced their effectiveness.. Was the Serious Accident Act effective? 20According to data received from the Ministry of Land, Infrastructure and Transport by Park Yong-gap, a member of the Democratic Party of Korea, the number of deaths at large construction companies increased., Ranked top in last year’s construction capability evaluation 20Workers who died at the construction site of the above construction company 35By name, 2023year(28number of people)rather than 25% increased. This is the first year of enforcement of the Severe Accident Punishment Act. 2022year(33number of people)There is no difference compared to. This is a comprehensive government construction information network.(CSI)This data is a compilation of the number of deaths registered in. In accordance with the law, construction companies must immediately CSImust be reported to.Even if we include the injured, the results are no different.. last year's top 20All deaths and injuries that occurred at the construction site were 1868This is the first year of enforcement of the Severe Accident Punishment Act. 2022year(1666number of people)compared to 12.1% increased. This means that industrial accidents have hardly decreased even after the implementation of the Serious Accident Punishment Act..The atmosphere is similar not only to the construction industry but also to other industries.. Ministry of Employment and Labor Major Accident NotificationeAccording to last year 13Quarterly cumulative manufacturing site deaths 134in the same period last year(123number of people) contrast 8.9% increased. fortune, storage, The telecommunications industry also had a high number of deaths during the same period. 12In people 19By name 58% increased.The Serious Accident Punishment Act applies to corporate workplaces. 1More than one person killed or injured 10If more than one person occurs, contact the business owner or management manager. 1imprisonment for more than one year or 10It is a law that imposes a fine of up to 100 million won.. It was mainly implemented in large businesses last year. 1Full-time worker from March 5more than phosphorus 50Expanded implementation to workplaces with less than 20 people.Let’s look at the background of the introduction of the Serious Accident Punishment Act..This does not mean that there have been no safety-related domestic regulations so far.. Even before the introduction of the Serious Accident Act, laws for worker safety clearly existed.. Before enactment of the Serious Accident Act, When an accident occurred at a workplace, the applicable laws were mainly the Occupational Safety and Health Act and the Criminal Act.. The Occupational Safety and Health Act is a bill that punishes top personnel at sites who violate safety and health measures.. Criminal law stipulates death due to violation of duty of care at work., injury, When a disease occurs, the occupational manslaughter clause applies.. Applicable persons are those who directly caused the accident.. Both the Occupational Safety and Health Act and the Criminal Act focus only on field issues..However, the Serious Accident Act has a different nature.. We focus on checking how much business owners and managers care about safety rather than on site.. The Serious Accident Act focuses on whether individual business owners and business managers have complied with their obligations to ensure safety and health.. If the business owner does not properly implement the measures prescribed by law, he or she will be subject to punishment.. This means that industrial accidents are viewed as a problem for the entire company rather than a simple on-site problem..The Serious Accident Act was introduced because, as the number of industrial accidents has increased rapidly in recent years, it is difficult to solve the fundamental problem by punishing only those responsible for the field.. The argument that the Occupational Safety and Health Act, which stipulates safety and health measure obligations only at workplaces, has its limitations has gained strength.. Company-wide investment to ensure safety and health, There were strong calls for more structural solutions, such as establishing a safety and health management system.. Thanks to this social atmosphere, the argument that corporate managers who provided the fundamental cause of the accident should be held responsible has gained strength.. so-called ‘Prevention effect through punishment’The purpose is to obtain.Serious Accident Act Why is fatal accidents not decreasing in industrial sites even though the Serious Accident Punishment Act, which was ambitiously introduced like the youngest person who can't have accidents, has been established?. The legal and business worlds are largely 4Bring up the causes.cause 1 Severe Accident Act only regulates institutional limitations and management…‘human error’ The biggest factor that cannot be captured is the institutional limitations of the Serious Accident Act itself..At the time of introduction, Dramatically reduce industrial accidents ‘one-size-fits-all bill’It seemed like it, but the reality is different.. Strictly speaking, the Serious Accident Act, It is not a system that strengthens safety measures on site.. As mentioned earlier, the bill that deals with field safety is the Occupational Safety and Health Act.. The Serious Accident Act focuses on regulating management to fulfill safety and health obligations rather than on-site conditions.. If management does not establish appropriate safety measures, Punishment for violating the Serious Accident Act. the other side, If safety measures have been established in accordance with the guidelines provided by the Serious Accident Act,, The boss can avoid punishment.Here, the limitations of the Serious Accident Act are revealed.. No matter how perfect corporate managers create systems, they cannot control each and every field.. Typically, industrial accidents occur 80%A minor mistake by the site manager or worker, so-called ‘human error’is the cause. Accidentally breaking safety regulations, Deviations, such as using tricks to get things done quickly, often lead to accidents..2022year 4month HThe death of a Solutek employee is a case where worker deviation led to an accident.. He died after falling while inspecting the outdoor unit of the air conditioner.. Although it was a serious accident,, HSolutek and its CEO were not indicted.. The accident occurred without prior approval from the person in charge., This is because the accident occurred while working alone without using a high-altitude work vehicle and without wearing protective gear..The company faithfully fulfilled its safety and health management obligations as specified in the Serious Accident Act.. It was concluded that despite company-wide efforts, accidents due to minor employee deviations could not be prevented.. Judicial authorities are responsible for an accident that resulted in the death of a worker due to deviation from the procedures set by the manager., It was decided that it would be difficult to admit the charges against the business owner..It is difficult to prevent damage caused by unexpected accidents using the Serious Accident Act alone.. This is because the focus is only on checking the safety management system in the management system rather than taking actual safety measures.. 2022at the time PA typical example is an accident involving the death of an industrial worker.. worker AMr. and foreign workers BMr. belongs to a subcontractor. P1st industrial company4Using a compression molding machine at the factory ‘bearing seal’ In charge of molding work. BFor convenience of work, he used hand tools to seat the metal ring and rubber ring, contrary to their original purpose..Meanwhile 2022year 2The wall hand tool was crushed by the pressure of the compression molding machine and then bounced off. AIt hit Mr.'s head. AHe died from traumatic cerebral hemorrhage.. At the time, the court “A causal relationship must be recognized between the outcomes of major disasters., It was impossible to foresee a case where a hand tool would get stuck and bounce out.”The reasons for the not guilty verdict were revealed.. This was because management could not prevent unexpected accidents..An anonymous legal official said “Dead during a serious disaster(亡人)There are quite a few accidents that occurred due to the fault of. Also, in workplaces where there is a lot of dangerous work, there are quite a few unexpected accidents.. It's a pity, The Serious Accident Act cannot prevent accidents like this.”explained. cause 2 Changed industrial sites: The increase in foreign workers, the aging population, and the halving of the effect of the Serious Accident Act are also behind changes in the industrial sites.. Construction where industrial accidents occur frequently, Manufacturing sites are jobs that young Koreans avoid.. All domestic workers left., Vacancies are being filled by foreign workers..Foreign personnel are difficult to control on site.. Because I'm not good at Korean, I can't communicate well., Safety control rules written in Korean are also difficult to understand.. The environment is such that it is difficult for field managers to properly train as in the past.. Recently, even field managers often hire foreigners..Construction industry officials “Foreign languages ​​are used more frequently than Korean at construction sites.. language barrier, Field managers have difficulty managing due to issues such as cultural differences.. No matter how excellent a safety management system is, the reality is that it is difficult to apply it to the field.”He complained.Industrial accidents among foreign workers are increasing every year.. According to data received by People Power Party lawmaker Kim Wi-sang from the Korea Workers' Compensation and Welfare Service. 2024year 3The total number of industrial accident deaths for which industrial accident approval was completed by the quarter is 617By name, Of these 80It was calculated that people were foreigners.. Accidental industrial accidents refer to industrial accidents that occur due to on-site accidents, not diseases.. The proportion of foreigners among industrial accident deaths is 2022year 9.7%at 2023year 10.4%, 2024year(19month)n 12.9%steadily increased to.2024year 5The number of foreign workers in Korea on a monthly basis is 101Total number of employed people in Korea is 10,000 people.(2857only6000number of people)of 3.5%It's just. Considering this, the probability of foreigners dying in an accident while working is much higher than that of Koreans.. last year 23In the case of the fire disaster at the Aricell factory in Hwaseong, Gyeonggi-do, where 15 people died 18There were foreign workers. Industrial accident applications by foreign workers compared to the previous year 6.5% increased 1only161For the first time with a gun 1exceeded 10,000 cases.The aging of field workers is also considered a factor that makes it difficult to prevent accidents.. Due to the phenomenon of young workers avoiding industrial sites, the construction and manufacturing industry is experiencing a serious aging of workers.. Elderly people with lower physical abilities have difficulty coping with sudden accidents and have a higher risk of death in the event of an accident.. Ministry of Employment and Labor survey results, 2024year 3Among accident deaths subject to disaster investigation on a cumulative quarterly basis 50The proportion of people over the age of 71.1%reached. Cause 3: The burden of establishing a name-free safety and health system is increasing for small and medium-sized businesses. One of the loopholes in the Serious Accident Act is that it is virtually a ‘name-free’ system for small and medium-sized businesses. Most small and medium-sized companies lack the manpower and budget to establish a safety and health management system, and are unable to establish even the minimum safety guidelines set by law. According to a survey of 702 small and medium-sized businesses with less than 50 employees last year by the Korea Chamber of Commerce and Industry, about half of the responding companies (47%) responded that they had not actually established a safety and health management system to prepare for the Serious Accident Act. The biggest reasons why small and medium-sized businesses cannot even respond are ‘lack of manpower’ and ‘cost burden’. The Serious Accident Act mandates the appointment of a safety and health manager and the provision of disaster prevention facilities. It is virtually impossible to establish a safety management system for small and medium-sized companies that lack the manpower and budget to run the business right now. An official in the construction industry said, “Small and medium-sized construction companies are construction companies, not safety companies,” and raised their voice, saying, “It is difficult to recruit the design, public affairs, and civil engineering personnel required for the site, and it is virtually impossible to hire additional safety personnel.” An official from company C, a pump manufacturer, said, “Large companies can invest as much money as necessary to establish a safety and health management system, but small and medium-sized companies can establish a safety and health management system by investing as much as necessary.” “There is no budget for that, and the youngest person at the production site is a worker in his 50s.” The government introduced a ‘joint safety manager system’ for small and medium-sized enterprises with insufficient budget and manpower, but the response on the ground was only lukewarm. The joint safety manager operates by jointly establishing a safety and health management system for each region and industry, and the government supports a portion of the operating costs. However, in the field, there is an atmosphere of ignoring this due to the burden of safety manager ransom. According to data submitted by People Power Party lawmaker Woo Jae-jun from the Ministry of Employment and Labor, as of August last year, the recruitment rate for the joint safety manager support project was only 50.8%. An official from a small business complained of frustration, saying, “We applied for government support to respond to the Serious Accident Act, but the experts only pointed out the actual situation and went away,” and “I don’t know how to improve facilities and appoint personnel, which cost tens of millions of won.” Cause 4 Sentencing with a rubber band that comes and goes There is no standard for sentencing The jumbled sentencing standards that come and go also cause distrust in the field toward the Serious Accident Act. Although three years have passed since the law went into effect, there is no independent sentencing standard. Moreover, rather than being heard by a collegial panel of several judges, the case is heard by a single judge. Because there is a large difference in sentencing among judges, the rulings are mixed even for similar cases. Jo Seong-geun, a lawyer specializing in serious accidents at Daeryun Law Firm, explained, “The Serious Accident Act has no specific sentencing standards, and it is difficult to find related lower court precedents.” He added, “It is difficult for even lawyers to predict sentences, so they have no choice but to ask themselves, ‘I must somehow avoid being caught under the Serious Accident Act.’” The vague sentencing standards are the biggest concern for companies. It's part. An official from a small and medium-sized manufacturing company said, “Because the Serious Accident Act itself is complex and unclear, it is difficult for small and medium-sized businesses to understand the level of preparation they should take and under what circumstances they will be punished, even if they read the guidelines and receive related consulting.” An official from a food manufacturing company who requested anonymity said, “We don’t know when or how an accident will occur, so it is excessive to punish them with ‘imprisonment for more than a year’ just because they are in charge of the business. In the case of small and medium-sized businesses, if the CEO is arrested, the business will close and workers will become unemployed.” The opinions of officials of the Korea Federation of SMEs and Startups are in a similar vein.

Is the Serious Accident Punishment Act useless? [Special Report] (Shortcut) 2026-05-12T07:39:30.859Z https://www.daeryunlaw.com/en/broadcast/4685 It is very important to set the standard time for property division during divorce. This is because the property held by each person at that reference point soon becomes the subject of division (property subject to division). The court states that ① "In principle, the property subject to division and its amount are determined based on the closing date of the factual hearing of the divorce suit," and ② "If it is easy to spend or conceal, such as money, and there is a risk of double addition when the reference point is different, the object and amount of division are determined based on the time of breakdown of the marital relationship." ① can be easily solved as follows. First, the 'factual trial' refers to the first and second trials in Korea's three-trial system. The first and second trials determine the facts based on the arguments of both sides and the evidence submitted, confirm that certain 'facts' that are the subject of legal judgment exist, and then make legal judgments accordingly. In other words, it is called a ‘factual trial’ because it can judge the ‘facts’. On the other hand, the Supreme Court, the third trial, judges only the ‘law’ without touching the ‘facts’ established in the ‘factual trial’. It only involves one more legal review of the ‘factual trial’ decision. Therefore, the 3rd trial is also called the 'legal trial'. In other words, if the divorce suit progressed to the 2nd trial, the last argument date (argument closing date) of the 2nd trial, and if it stopped at the 1st trial, the last argument date of the 1st trial can be used as the standard for property division. Let's solve ② easily as well. ‘The point of breakdown of the marital relationship’ literally means the point at which the marital relationship between the couple is broken to the point where it can no longer be restored. This will vary depending on each case, but it is generally considered the time of breakdown when one party files a divorce suit. The time when separation begins is sometimes seen as the point of breakdown. In the case of financial assets such as money that is easy to spend or hide, typically bank deposits, the time when a divorce suit is filed (when the complaint is filed with the court) can be viewed as the standard time for property division. Let's look at a specific example. Let’s assume that A owned an apartment worth 1 billion won at the time she filed for divorce. Assuming that the market price of this apartment has reached 1.5 billion won by the end of the trial hearing, what is the value of this apartment in property division? The answer is 1.5 billion won. This is because the object of property division and its amount are, in principle, determined based on the closing date of the trial trial. So, what would happen if A sold the above apartment for 1.2 billion won in the middle of the lawsuit? As of the closing date of the trial trial, A is not the owner of the apartment, so the above apartment cannot be regarded as property subject to division. However, in this case, it can be said that A holds assets subject to division of 1.2 billion won, equivalent to the sale price of the apartment. Next, at the time the divorce suit was filed, A held a bank deposit of 1 billion won, and this deposit increased to 1.5 billion won by the end of the trial hearing. So, how much is the deposit subject to division? The answer is 1 billion won. This is because the standard time for division of financial assets is generally considered to be the time when a divorce suit is filed. In this way, the core of property division is the process of considering whether various individual assets such as real estate, automobiles, deposits, insurance, and stocks should be included or excluded from the division, and what their value should be, depending on the standard time.

Paying attention to the possibility of change Amid the growing craze for AI legal services, such as chatbots and brokerage platforms that combine artificial intelligence (AI) technology and legal services, debates are continuing. This is because the Korean Bar Association (Bar Association) is taking strong action against AI legal services launched by some law firms on the grounds that they violate the prohibition on advertising under the Attorney General's Act. In the law firm industry, there is a suggestion that the Korean Bar Association is setting up 'cheokhwabi' and taking a hard line, and that they should find an agreement with each other. According to the law firm industry on the 19th, the Korean Bar Association is said to be considering disciplinary action against Daeryun Law Firm's AI-based legal service 'AI Daeryun'. AI Daeryun is a service that supports lawyers in writing various legal documents and provides legal interpretation and various precedents to user questions. Daeryun explains that it has launched this service because it believes that the use of AI in the legal market is an irreversible trend of the times. The Bar Association's position is that it will examine whether 'AI Daeryun' violates the Bar Act regulations. It is said to be contrary to Article 5 of the Rules on Lawyer Advertisements (lawyers, etc. cannot make advertisements with methods or content that allow consumers to directly use programs such as artificial intelligence or connect consumers to artificial intelligence programs) enacted in October of last year. Daeryun filed a constitutional petition on the 17th of last month, claiming that these regulations infringe on the freedom of press, publication, professional practice, and business. The bar association also imposed fines and reprimands on the representative attorney and six affiliated lawyers for 'AI Daeryuk Aju', launched by Daeryuk Aju Law Firm in November last year, on the grounds of violation of the Bar Act. The Bar Association determined that there were problems with the AI ​​chatbot replacing lawyer work and the Naver advertisement placed at the bottom of the AI ​​response. Daeryuk Aju also objected to the Bar Association's disciplinary action and submitted an objection to the Ministry of Justice on the 7th of last month. The law firm industry points out that there is a risk that the Bar Association's continued use of sanctions could shrink the entire legal market. A lawyer who used to be a judge said, "Unconditionally banning AI-based legal platforms could actually result in hindering the development of the domestic legal tech industry. If we regulate domestic AI legal services, there is a high possibility that foreign AI services will eventually take over the domestic market, so we need to move in a direction that can be utilized rather than simply regulating them." However, there were also concerns that the legal market could be buried in 'AI omnipotence.' This means that following AI's incorrect judgment in sensitive disputes such as lawsuits can result in irreversible damage. Kim Jae-sik, a lawyer at Apex Law Firm, emphasized, "I am in favor of using AI as a second opinion, but I am opposed to using AI entirely while excluding human judgment." He added, "We should avoid permitting commercial use of AI-reliance." Meanwhile, as the new Chairman of the Korean Bar Association Kim Jeong-wook, who is scheduled to take office on the 24th, pledged to "form a platform and AI response consultative body," there may be a change in the atmosphere regarding the use of legal platforms and AI. Interest is gathering. An official at the Korean Bar Association said, “I think the next executive branch will follow the same lines as the current one (with respect to AI),” but added, “If the executive branch changes, won’t there be discussions about whether to maintain it in some way or find an agreement or compromise?” Reporter Kim Hyeong-jun (dhkd7979@naver.com)[View full article] [Law Firm Zip Exploration] ‘Legal AI’ stopped in front of the Bar Association… “Find a consensus” (Shortcut) 2026-05-11T01:24:07.571Z https://www.daeryunlaw.com/en/broadcast/4683 While on trial for stalking an upstairs neighbor, the crime was "only an attempt, but he prepared a weapon in advance and could not avoid imprisonment." A man who had been in conflict for years due to noise between floors was sentenced to prison for trying to threaten his neighbor with a weapon. It has been pointed out that noise between floors goes beyond simple discord between neighbors and sometimes leads to violent crimes. Judge Kim Hyun-joo, Criminal Division 3, Western Branch of the Busan District Court, sentenced Mr. A, a man in his 30s, who was indicted on charges of attempted special intimidation, to four months in prison on the 19th. Mr. A has been in conflict with B, a woman in her 50s who lives on the upper floor of his house, over the issue of noise between floors since early 2022, and has been accused of violating the law on the punishment of stalking crimes. was on trial. Meanwhile, Mr. A received a 112 call at 8:25 a.m. on November 11 last year and was told by the police that he had made a report regarding inter-floor noise from the upper floor. Mr. A, who was enraged by this, grabbed the weapon that was in his small room and went out the front door, shouting, “I will kill those above.” However, he was stopped by a police officer in front of the front door, so the crime ended up being an attempt. Judge Kim ruled, “The crime was only an attempt and the victim did not recognize the defendant’s special threatening behavior, but Mr. A committed the crime while he was being tried for stalking Mr. B, and he had a weapon prepared in advance, so he cannot avoid a prison sentence because he used the weapon.” Recently, conflicts over noise between floors have become a social problem, with cases being applied to the stalking punishment law. There is. In fact, in August last year, the Busan District Court sentenced a man in his 70s who was arrested and indicted on charges of violating the stalking crime punishment law to one year and two months in prison. This man continued to visit the house above where a woman in her 30s moved in alone, complaining and swearing, and even went to him with a baseball bat and hit the front door. However, in some rulings, the man was found not guilty, and attention is focused on the criteria for applying stalking charges. In May of last year, the Seoul Central District Court acquitted a man in his 40s who was indicted on charges of violating the stalking punishment law and causing injury. The prosecution determined that Mr. C caused injuries to Mr. D, including insomnia and anxiety disorder, by swearing and behaving badly at night on 17 occasions from May 2017 to June 2021. However, the court ruled, “It is difficult to say that the evidence presented by the prosecutor alone proves beyond a reasonable doubt that he stalked the victim and caused insomnia and anxiety disorder through threats and other actions.” The legal community explains that the crime of stalking is established when a specific act is performed continuously and repeatedly to cause anxiety or fear in the other person. Park Dong-il, attorney representing Daeryun Law Firm, said, “As conflicts due to noise between floors intensify, there are many cases where the other party engages in unwanted contact, approach, and surveillance repeatedly, and as a result, there is a possibility that it may meet the legal requirements for a stalking crime.” He added, “Therefore, in the process of resolving the issue of noise between floors, it is necessary to refrain from emotional responses and take a cautious approach that takes legal risks into consideration.” Reporter Kim Seong-hyeon (kksh@busan.com)[View full article] I was stopped when I tried to visit my neighbor with a weapon due to a conflict between floors... 4 months in prison (link) 2026-04-21T14:33:20.323Z https://www.daeryunlaw.com/en/broadcast/4682 Victim of physical fight during drinking bar fight suffered 6-week injuries Prosecutors say “in the process of grabbing each other by the collar” A man who assaulted a colleague was handed over to the prosecution, but was not indicted. According to the legal community on the 19th, the Gwangju District Prosecutors' Office granted a suspended indictment to Mr. A, a man in his 60s, on charges of assault causing bodily harm on December 23 last year. Mr. A grabbed colleague B by the collar in September last year. He was accused of pushing, knocking down, assaulting, and causing injury. As a result of the investigation, it was confirmed that the two people got into an argument while drinking and got into a physical fight. As a result, Mr. B was diagnosed with a 6-week injury, including fractured ribs. Mr. A admitted to all charges. However, he claimed that he fell because he was drunk and was unable to properly control his body while grabbing Mr. B by the collar. The prosecution decided not to indict Mr. A. The prosecution said, “The degree of injury suffered by the victim in this case is not light,” but added, “It appears that the victim fell while grabbing each other by the collar and shaking, so it is difficult to place the responsibility of the injury entirely on the suspect.” He added, “The victim also stated that the other party did not intend to hurt him,” and added, “We took into consideration that the suspect acknowledged and reflected on his mistake and that we both reached an amicable agreement.” In this case, Mr. Attorney Kang Jeong-hoon of Daeryun Law Firm (Lihan), who represented the victim, said, “Unlike assault, where a prosecution cannot be filed if the victim does not want to be punished, the crime of involuntary punishment does not apply to the crime of assault causing bodily harm.” He added, “This is a case in which criminal punishment was avoided because it was acknowledged that there were extenuating circumstances in the circumstances of the case and that an agreement had been reached.” Digital Content Team[View full article] A man in his 60s who knocked down and hit a colleague was ‘not indicted’… “The suspect is not entirely responsible” (Shortcut) 2026-05-08T23:40:03.523Z https://www.daeryunlaw.com/en/broadcast/4675 Interest in the legal responsibility for the fire at the construction site of a high-end hotel and resort in Gijang-gun, Busan, which killed 6 people and injured 27 people, is growing. In the legal community, there is an analysis that there is a high possibility of legal liability for the construction company that directly managed and supervised the construction site. According to the Busan Police Agency on the 17th, the construction company was responsible for completing the fire at the ‘Banyan Tree Haeundae Busan Hotel & Resort’ in Yeonhwa-ri, Gijang-gun on the 14th by November of last year, but continued construction beyond the deadline. At the time of the fire, 841 workers from 40 subcontractors were carrying out various tasks at the site. Because of this, materials were piled up all over the place. The legal community believes that there is a high possibility that the construction company will be held legally responsible. Attorney Dong-il Park, CEO of Daeryun Law Firm, said, “Currently, both the developer and the construction company are known to be different companies, and it appears that the construction company that directly hired workers and managed and supervised the construction site will not be able to escape responsibility.” Attorney Song Young-in of Compass Law Firm said, “There is a high possibility that the responsibility of the construction company and the contracting or partnering company will be acknowledged,” and “If the construction company does not have a special agreement, the liability may be less than that of the construction company.” The key is whether or not the Act on Punishment of Serious Accidents, etc. (Serious Accident Punishment Act) has been violated. Attorney Choi Jae-won of Siwoo Law Firm analyzed, “We need to look at the outline of the case in detail, but there is a good possibility that the Serious Accident Punishment Act will be applied because six workers died. The most important thing seems to be whether work guidelines and safety management were properly followed.” Another lawyer explained, “The application of the Serious Accident Punishment Act seems unavoidable, but complex legal disputes are expected over who is responsible because the issue of compensation to victims and bereaved families must also be addressed.” There is also controversy over whether the deceased worker should be covered by insurance. Employers who employ workers must subscribe to both employment and industrial accident insurance. Of course, daily workers are also eligible to join. The surviving family of Mr. A (44), who died in the fire, claimed that Mr. A was not insured. However, the Korea Workers' Compensation and Welfare Service said, "The accident site is covered by industrial accident insurance and employment insurance."

On December 24 last year, the Suncheon Branch of the Gwangju District Prosecutors' Office ruled that Mr. A, who was suspected of violating the law on the punishment of stalking crimes, was 'not guilty'. Ms. A was accused of contacting her ex-husband, Mr. B, on approximately 30 occasions in September of last year. Ms. A denied the charges. He refuted that Mr. B continued to ask for a lot of money and that he only contacted him to ask the reason for this. He then emphasized that during the process of communicating, Mr. B never expressed his intention to refuse contact. The prosecution determined that Mr. A was not guilty. The prosecution said, "At the time of the crime, it was confirmed that hundreds of messages were exchanged between the two people," and "It cannot be seen that the suspect sent the message unilaterally." He added, "The message only contained information such as methods to solve financial problems, and no expression of intent to cause harm was confirmed." He explained, "The suspect's actions may cause bothersome and unpleasant feelings, but they cannot be seen as actions that cause anxiety or fear." Attorney Sangwan Oh of Daeryun Law Firm (Limited) said, "Stalking is causing anxiety or fear through a specific act against the other person's will and without a justifiable reason. There were circumstances to ask Mr. A the reason for Mr. B's request for money." He added, "Mr. B did not answer Mr. A's phone call requesting the money back, but continued to ask for money through messages." He added, "After comprehensively judging these issues, the prosecution determined that Mr. A's actions did not constitute stalking. “I can see it,” he added.

According to the legal community on the 17th, the 6-3 Criminal Division of the Suwon District Court held an appellate hearing on December 17 last year for seven people, including Mr. As in the first trial, he was declared not guilty. Mr. A was sent to trial in 2012 while working as a local government official on charges of receiving a favor from real estate development company B and providing convenience in obtaining construction-related permits. Company B submitted documents to the local government department stating that it would build a joint collection and delivery center on a specific site designated as an urban planning facility at the time, and the prosecution found that Mr. A wrote a false official document despite knowing that this request from Company B violated the current law. I saw it. The prosecution also claimed that Company B's joint collection and delivery center, which was primarily used as a knowledge industry center and officetel, was contrary to the purpose of urban planning facilities, which is to improve public welfare, and did not carry out change procedures to conduct development activities other than the original purpose. In addition, Company B was in a situation where development activities could not be carried out because it did not meet the requirements for designating a legitimate project implementer, and emphasized that Mr. A and others were aware of this fact but tolerated it. The first trial court found them all not guilty in January of last year. The court first mentioned that Mr. A and others did not apply the law by falsely stating the facts in the process of preparing the official document. Even if there is a mistake in applying the law incorrectly or not applying the law that should have been applied, the crime of creating a false official document cannot be established if there is no false statement about the facts that became the premise for its application. The court also said that at the time the document was prepared, there was no clear legal principle that could legally prohibit or make it impossible to designate Company B as the project implementer. In addition, the court explained that it was not easy to reach a conclusion as there were many different opinions as to whether the joint collection and delivery center that Company B wanted to build was actually in conflict with the purpose of the previous urban planning facility and whether a separate change procedure must have been followed before permission was granted. In the meantime, the court said, "The defendant, who is a public official, chose a certain view before the interpretation of the law was established and handled the work as a result, and as a result, it was illegal, and there was an intention to write false official documents at the time of the work." “It is difficult to draw a conclusion,” he added. Although the prosecution objected to this not guilty verdict, the appellate court dismissed the appeal, saying there was no error in factual or legal misunderstanding in the original judgment. Attorney Ahn Seung-jin of Yuhan Daeryun Law Firm, who represented Mr. “We emphasized that the proposed violations of law were based on incorrect interpretation of the law,” he said.

Although various agendas were discussed, the biggest topic of this election was network law firms. Although there were detailed differences of opinion on methods, etc., the voices of all candidates were the same: that network law firms should be actively regulated. The author has also received several questions about network law firms from various stakeholders, including lawyers and reporters. At such times, the author would always convey his position, saying, “There is no reason to reject any proposal if the relevant regulation proposal does not go against the Constitution and the values ​​of the free market and contributes to the advancement of the public’s right to know and the expansion and development of the legal market.” However, it is necessary to think deeply about the essence of the regulation proposal mentioned by each candidate. The author believes that the purpose of the regulation is to ‘improve the rights of the people’ and ‘healthy growth of the legal profession.’ It is believed that these regulations were created with the hope that the domestic legal market will become more competitive and that high-quality legal services will be provided to the people. If this is the thinking of the candidates who want to become the leader representing about 35,000 lawyers, our legal community must now come together and take a step forward. In addition to regulating some network law firms that operate illegally, there is a need to pay attention to eradicating the deep-rooted evils in the legal profession for a long time. As one of the evils that must be eliminated from the domestic legal market, the author would like to mention ‘legal brokers.’ The activities of a legal broker usually begin with ‘impersonating an office manager.’ He introduces himself as an office manager, approaches clients and lawyers, and collects a fee in return for arranging cases. Until about 10 years ago, these legal brokers were considered a very serious social problem. Statistics were announced that out of the 10,725 cases of legal corruption that occurred from 2011 to the first half of 2014, 5,353 cases, or nearly half, were civil and criminal broker cases, so there is no need to explain the seriousness of this further. Accordingly, the courts, prosecutors, and lawyer groups formed a task force (TF) to take action to eradicate legal brokers. However, recently, another concept has emerged. These are ‘expert committee members’ and ‘advisory committee members’ who are non-lawyers who were retired police officers. It is known that they mainly play an advisory role in criminal cases. The problem is that some of them not only provide advice but also try to exert influence by unfairly intervening in the investigation process. As legal brokers operate beneath the surface, changing only their names, the public is burdened with the double burden of economic burden and distrust of the judiciary. Daeryun Law Firm (Lihan), to which the author belongs, has been carrying out midnight activities to eradicate legal brokers. The goal was to educate internal members about the illegality of legal brokerage and actively encourage reporting. Of course, it is true that the efforts of individual law firms alone have limitations in eradicating the ills that have permeated the entire industry. The good news is that investigative agencies have recently shown a more active willingness to investigate legal brokers. In July of last year, the Ulsan District Prosecutors' Office succeeded in detaining and indicting a former police chief and law firm expert on suspicion of collusion with a legal broker. The expert in question is said to have exerted direct and indirect influence on the police investigation team. As such, there are still a lot of issues that need to be resolved in our country's legal profession. I have no doubt that this election for the president of the Bar Association will be a signal of new change. We hope that the new Bar Association president and executive team, who will take office on the 24th of this month, will not only solve new challenges but also make efforts to eliminate existing bad habits to create a healthier legal market. Daeryun is also ready to take the lead more than anyone else.

The 2nd Criminal Division of the Suwon District Court sentenced Mr. A, a driver in his 60s, who was put on trial on December 20 last year on charges of violating the Special Act on Traffic Accidents (death), to one year in prison and two years of probation, breaking the two-year prison term in the first trial. Mr. A is due in December 2022 He was suspected of hitting and killing a passerby who was crossing the crosswalk. At that time, it was confirmed that the victim was hit by Mr. A's vehicle, fell to the opposite lane, and was soon struck again by a vehicle coming from the opposite direction. The victim suffered serious injuries in this accident and was taken to the hospital, but eventually died. During the trial, Mr. A first admitted that the accident occurred due to his negligence. However, it was emphasized that the victim suffered a second accident when he fell after colliding with his vehicle, and that this second accident appears to have been the direct cause of death. The first trial court sentenced Mr. A to two years in prison. The court said, "The defendant shocked the victim who was crossing the street, causing damage by depriving him of life. We took into account the fact that he had a history of traffic-related crimes, including being punished for drunk driving and unlicensed driving in the past." Mr. A, who was dissatisfied with this, filed an appeal, and the second trial sentenced Mr. A to probation. The appellate court explained, "The defendant's professional negligence was serious in that he neglected his duty to look ahead and shocked the victim." He then revealed the reason for the sentencing, saying, "The defendant has acknowledged his mistake and is reflecting on it, and has reached an amicable agreement with the victim's family and does not want to be punished." Attorney Park Se-hoon of Daeryun Law Firm (Limited), who represented Mr. A, said, "During the trial, it was emphasized that the negligence of the driver of the opposite vehicle that caused the second accident at the time cannot be ignored." said.

A man in his 40s who injured a neighbor by wielding an electric shock gun during an argument over noise between floors of an apartment building was sentenced to probation in the second trial. Suwon District Court's 6-3 Criminal Division (Chief Judges Kim Eun-jeong, Shin Woo-jeong, and Yoo Jae-gwang) dismissed the prosecutor's appeal in the appeal trial against Mr. A, who was indicted in December last year on charges of special assault and violation of the Act on Safety Management of Guns, Swords, Explosives, etc., and upheld the lower court ruling that sentenced him to 8 months in prison and 2 years of probation. In February of the same year, Mr. A was attacked by a neighbor with an electric shock gun in an apartment in Yeongtong-gu, Suwon-si, Gyeonggi-do, in February of the same year. Mr. B, who was in his 50s, was brought to trial on charges of stabbing the neck and face. Mr. A, who lived in the house below Mr. B at the time of the incident, is known to have stated in a police investigation, “I was protesting due to the noise between floors, but I committed the crime because I was harassed by Mr. B’s family by making retaliatory noises.” Mr. A’s lawyer also said in court, “Mr. A was a parent raising a young child, and he was very worried about the safety of his children due to Mr. B’s violent behavior,” and “The electric shock gun was used for self-defense.” He defended the case, saying, “I had it in stock, and I had never used it even during the ongoing conflict with Mr. B.” He continued, “On the day of the incident, Mr. A was with his children, and when he encountered Mr. B as usual, all the anxiety he had felt came out all at once.” He said, “Mr. A has acknowledged his mistakes and is deeply reflecting on them, and has never shown violent tendencies,” and hoped for leniency. The first trial court found Mr. A guilty of assault. However, the suspended sentence was given in consideration of the fact that Mr. A had a conflict with the victim over noise between floors and that crime victim protection measures were in place for Mr. A's children even before the incident occurred. Accordingly, the prosecutor appealed, saying the sentence was light, but the appellate court dismissed the appeal. Attorney Park Se-hoon of Daeryun Law Firm (Limited), Mr. A's legal representative, said, "As the incident occurred during a dispute over noise between floors, there were many legal aspects to consider," and added, "I understand that the first and second trial courts accepted the part in which Mr. A had great fear, which was formed due to conflict and damage accumulated over a long period of time, and the part in which he committed the crime for the safety of his children."

The circumstances are as follows. Medical Corporation A, which operated a psychiatric hospital, submitted an inquiry to the Ministry of Health and Welfare in 2021. It was about ‘whether it is possible to establish an oriental medicine department within a psychiatric hospital.’ The Ministry of Health and Welfare responded that it was impossible. The basis was Article 43, Paragraph 1 of the Medical Service Act. The clause included the following: ‘Hospitals, dental hospitals, or general hospitals may establish and operate additional oriental medicine departments by hiring oriental doctors.’ However, the Ministry of Health and Welfare’s position was that psychiatric hospitals not listed here could not establish oriental medicine departments. Establishing oriental medicine departments in mental hospitals was not impossible from the beginning. The Medical Service Act, revised in January 2009, allows all hospital-level medical institutions to establish and operate medical, oriental medicine, and dental departments. At the time, mental hospitals were included in nursing hospitals, so collaboration between doctors, oriental medicine doctors, and dentists was possible. However, the situation changed with the revision of the Medical Service Act in 2020. Psychiatric hospitals are defined as separate medical institutions from nursing hospitals. At the same time, Article 43, Paragraph 3 of the same Act included provisions allowing mental hospitals to establish and operate additional dental departments, but no separate regulations were prepared for Oriental medicine departments. In this situation, Medical Corporation A protested. They raised their voices saying that allowing oriental medicine departments to be established and operated only in hospitals, dental hospitals, and general hospitals is an infringement on professional freedom. At the same time, a constitutional appeal was requested. The Constitutional Court ruled that the current medical law was unreasonable and unanimously ruled that it was unconstitutional. Unlike other hospitals, there is no special reason not to allow the cooperation of oriental medicine doctors only in mental hospitals. Rather, the Constitutional Court emphasized that the need for oriental medicine departments in mental hospitals is even greater. In the case of mental health institutions, there are many hospitalized patients who require long-term treatment, and the purpose is to increase accessibility to medical care by allowing patients who are not free to go outside due to involuntary hospitalization to receive treatment in other subjects, such as oriental medicine. The Constitutional Court also issued a response to the effect of refuting the opinion raised by some that 'oriental medicine treatment is not necessary in mental hospitals.' It was emphasized that citizens who are medical consumers have a desire to receive integrated medical services of oriental and western medicine, and there are clinical cases showing that the treatment results are also effective. This position can be said to be an example showing that the Constitutional Court's view on the combination of oriental and western medicine has advanced.

Official trial request court: “The assault was minor and there is no risk of reoffending” Sentencing postponed An office worker in his 40s who threw an object at a disgruntled fellow employee received a deferred sentence. On December 12 of last year, the Seoul Western District Court postponed the sentencing of a fine of 300,000 won to a man in his 40s, Mr. A, who was indicted on assault charges. Mr. A was accused of injuring fellow employee B by throwing a bottle of hand cream at him in May of last year. According to a police investigation, Mr. A admitted to the charges. However, he emphasized that he had always been stressed by the thought that Mr. B was stalking him, and that he committed the crime because he could not control his anger when he saw Mr. B coming nearby. The prosecution, which reviewed the case, acknowledged that Mr. A was guilty of assault and requested a summary order of a fine of 300,000 won. After the court sentenced him, Mr. A, who was dissatisfied, requested a formal trial. The court sentenced Mr. A to a suspended sentence. The court explained, “The defendant did not receive forgiveness from the victim,” but added, “He committed the crime accidentally due to a misunderstanding that the victim was hanging around him, and the degree of assault was minor.” He then explained the reason for sentencing, saying, “The defendant is reflecting on his mistakes and is unlikely to commit the crime again even if he is not sentenced.” Attorney Kyung-Hoon Oh of Daeryun Law Firm (Limited), who represented Mr. Depending on the case, a heavier fine than a summary sentence may be imposed,” he said. “In order to lower the sentence, it is most important to inform the court of the reasons that can be taken into account in sentencing.” Attorney Oh continued, “In this case, it was emphasized that Mr. Reporter Kim Jong-cheol (jckim99@sportsseoul.com)[View full article] An employee threw an object at a disgruntled coworker...

The court ruled that the seller is responsible for not only returning the money but also compensating for damages for not complying with the obligation to register the transfer of ownership after entering into the land sales contract. The Chuncheon District Court Civil Division 5 is the plaintiff in a lawsuit for return of the sale price filed by Mr. A, the land buyer, against Mr. B, the seller. It was announced on the 10th that a favorable decision was made. Mr. A requested 50 million won in sales price and interest on delay, and the court accepted all of them. Previously, Mr. A was recommended to purchase land by his acquaintance B in August 2019. Mr. B, who owned some land in Gangwon-do, offered to sell 500 pyeong of the land to Mr. A for 50 million won. Afterwards, they included special provisions in the contract. The contract was concluded, and Mr. A paid the balance and completed the contract. However, after the contract was finalized, Mr. B delayed registering the transfer of ownership for several years. In addition, the special condition of changing the object of sale to another nearby land if it was impossible to fulfill the land for sale was not kept. Accordingly, Mr. A notified the cancellation of the contract in April of last year and requested a return of the money. However, even after that, Mr. B did not comply with the request, and in the end, Mr. A filed a lawsuit for the return of the sale price. Mr. A claimed, "We have suffered for a long time due to Mr. B's failure to fulfill the terms of the original contract," and "We tried to resolve the contract issue by sending various proofs of contents, but even this failed because Mr. B did not comply." The court ruled that Mr. B should pay the sale price and delay damages. The court said, "The defendant has a duty to fulfill the contract with the plaintiff," and "We believe that the defendant had a justifiable reason for failing to do so." "It is difficult," he ruled. Attorney Shin Dong-hoon of Daeryun Law Firm, who is Mr. A's legal representative, pointed out, "Prior to the lawsuit on the main matter, we issued a notice of contract performance and cancellation through proof of contents, but Mr. B took no action." He added, "The payment deadline arrived, but he did not pay the debt, which ultimately led to this lawsuit."

The regulation of AI-based accelerated bar association is hindering... A mountain of commercialization tasks. Last December, the National Assembly passed a bill to enact the 'Basic Act on the Development of Artificial Intelligence (AI) and Creation of a Foundation for Trust, etc.' (hereinafter referred to as the AI ​​Basic Act). The AI ​​Framework Act aims to establish a basic plan to strengthen national technological competitiveness, as well as foster the AI ​​industry and establish various regulatory systems. The purpose is to protect the rights and dignity of the people and secure a leading position in the global AI market through the sound development of AI and the creation of a foundation of trust. As technology continues to develop, AI is being used in many areas of our daily lives, including work and leisure. Accordingly, discussions on securing AI competitiveness and development direction have continued in each field. In the AI ​​era, the legal profession is also showing great interest in AI. Legal AI shows its true value when used properly. First, searching for complex legal information and precedents becomes simpler. This is because AI technology analyzes tens of thousands of precedents and vast amounts of legal data appropriate for each situation and provides a summary of information that may be helpful to users. Simple legal consultation is also available. This means that consumers will be able to access more accurate legal information more easily. The so-called 'legaltech' market, which combines legal services and cutting-edge technology, is already growing rapidly in overseas countries. In the United States, which early adopted AI technology, more than half of law firms have adopted AI and are taking the lead in improving technology. In line with this trend, many law firms in Korea are actively introducing legal AI, but they are unable to overcome the threshold for commercialization due to disciplinary action from the Korean Bar Association (Bar Association) or various regulations. According to Article 1 of the Attorney Act (Mission of Lawyers), lawyers must make it their mission to defend human rights and realize social justice. It can be seen as an anachronistic idea to consider only the personal interests of lawyers while ignoring the background of exclusive rights such as legal work and representation rights. If legal AI is successfully established in the domestic legal market, the work processing ability of lawyers who professionally use it and the processing speed per unit of time will also be able to dramatically improve. In addition, language barriers and foreign law application issues, which have been considered obstacles in the process of entering the overseas legal market for Korean law firms, can be easily resolved. People's access to the law will improve, and at the same time, more demand for law will be created. With the advent of legal AI, the domestic legal market has reached a new paradigm turning point. The advancement of legal AI services is a process that can no longer be avoided and is considered an opportunity that can bring great benefits to both service users and lawyers. Now is the time for everyone to work together to ensure that domestic legal AI service technology and systems are completed to the world's best level. This is not simply a matter of choice based on individual ideology, but can be seen as a new task of the times that goes beyond the existing framework.[View full article] The global legal tech market is on the rise...

The legal community also has mixed opinions. The legal community also has different opinions on the five members of the group New Jeans (Minzy, Hani, Daniel, Hae-rin, and Hyein) changing their team name to NJZ. On the 7th, the New Jeans members modified their newly opened Instagram account ‘jeanszforfree’ to ‘njz_official’. Afterwards, they announced that they would be working under the name ‘NJZ’ in the future by writing, “Minzy, Hani, Daniel, Hae-rin, and Hye-in’s new group name is NJZ. Please look forward to the surprising journey we will take with NJ-Z in 2025!” They also posted a lineup under the group name ‘NJZ’ at a concert held in Hong Kong in March. However, the issue of trademark rights for their newly changed group name ‘NJZ’ came to mind. This is because the new activity name ‘NJZ’ is derived from the initial consonant of the pronunciation of NewJeans. Attorney Kim Tae-hwan, an intellectual property expert at the law firm Daeryun, told Sports Kyunghyang, “It is difficult to say that New Jeans and NJ-Z are similar in appearance and name. However, from the perspective of general consumers, it is easy to intuit that the capitalized part of ‘NewJeans’ was used, so there is a possibility that the similarity will be recognized.” He continued, “New Jeans members are “If we are active under the new group name ‘NJZ,’ there is a possibility that there may be an issue of trademark infringement in addition to the ongoing ‘exclusive contract validity confirmation lawsuit,’” he said, noting that the team name ‘NJZ’ could affect the ongoing legal dispute and activities. However, another lawyer who requested anonymity cautiously expressed his opposition, saying, “‘NJZ’ may remind you of New Jeans, but there does not seem to be a problem with the trademark rights themselves.” The lawyer said, “The standard for judging similarity is ‘Will consumers be confused?’ It seems unlikely that they will be confused with the business name New Genes just by looking at NJZ. In the end, legal disputes are likely to be inevitable in order for ‘NJZ’ to be recognized as an official group name and register trademark rights. There have always been cases where groups that were once very popular were unable to use their existing group name due to trademark issues with their former agency. BEAST (now Highlight) was unable to use the name ‘Beast’ after leaving Cube Entertainment in 2016, and eventually continued their activities under the new group name ‘Highlight’. After disbanding in 2021, the group GFRIEND also resumed activities by forming a new group called VIVIZ because their agency Source Music owns the group name. On the other hand, there are also cases of ‘Beautiful Breakup’ where activities are continued under a similar name after consultation even if the original agency has trademark rights. ‘Brave Girls’, which changed its team name to ‘BBGIRLS’, is a representative example. However, this does not seem to be easy in the current situation of New Genes, which is in dispute with Adore.

The 1st civil affairs division of the Tongyeong branch of the Changwon District Court (Chief Judge Hyun-rak Cho) upheld the plaintiff's claim in the construction payment claim lawsuit filed by Company A, a welding subcontractor, against the representative of the main contractor partner in December last year. It was dismissed. Company A signed a welding work contract with Mr. B, the representative of the partner company, in August 2021. According to the contract, after the initial contract period, both parties agreed to extend the business relationship in three-month increments, and accordingly, Company A continued to trade with its partner company. However, Company A filed a lawsuit against Mr. B, claiming that it had not received subcontract payment of 44 million won during the period from February 2022 to December 2023. Company A has been entrusting its tax and accounting work to an outsourcing company, but the company received information that Mr. B reduced the subcontract price without consent and did not pay it. In response, Mr. B argued that the contracting party in the contract agreement is the partner company represented by Mr. B, and that the construction price should be discussed with the partner company, not Mr. B. Mr. B's legal representative said, "The contracting party from February 2022, the period at issue in this case, was not Mr. B, but the partner company to which Mr. B belonged. Although the contracting party was previously Mr. B according to a prior contract, the two sides reached an agreement in this regard and since the payment was made in the name of the partner company, Company A's claim should be considered groundless." The court also said that there was no agreement in the part where the contracting party changed from Mr. B's individual to the partner company. I decided it was done. Chief Judge Cho ruled, “Given the fact that Company A has received subcontract payments into an account in the name of a partner company and that the partner company is listed as a transaction party on the tax invoice, it can be interpreted that there was mutual agreement in the process of changing the contracting parties.” Attorney Ik-cheon Cho of Daeryun Law Firm (Limited), who represented Mr. B, said, “The key to this lawsuit was to accurately determine who was involved in the contract.” “If the claims are different, we were able to defend the plaintiff’s claim based on prior precedent that the parties must be determined based on the nature of the contract, the circumstances surrounding the conclusion of the contract, and specific circumstances before and after the conclusion of the contract,” he explained.[View full article] “I received less money” The representative of a partner company who was sued by a subcontractor for construction costs... What are the results? (Shortcut) 2026-05-07T16:30:35.824Z https://www.daeryunlaw.com/en/broadcast/4637 MBC has begun a formal investigation into a complaint from the bereaved family of MBC weather caster Oyoanna Oyoanna, who died in September of last year, who claimed to have recorded a ‘transcript of bullying’ while she was alive. The police also began an investigation (internal investigation) before filing a case. MBC announced in a press release on the 3rd, "A fact-finding committee has been officially launched to determine the truth behind the deceased's death. The committee will begin its activities in earnest starting with its first meeting on Wednesday, February 5th, and we plan to complete the investigation as quickly and accurately as possible." The fact-finding committee chaired by attorney Chae Yang-hee (Hyemyung Law Firm) includes attorney Jeong In-jin (Barun Law Firm) as an external member. Three internal personnel, including the head of MBC's compliance and personnel grievance department, also serve as committee members. An official letter from the Ministry of Employment and Labor ordering an internal investigation into complaints of 'workplace harassment' also arrived at MBC yesterday. After the media report, a number of complaints demanding a thorough investigation into the incident were filed in the Kookmin Newspaper, and the Seoul Western Branch of the Ministry of Employment and Labor, which has jurisdiction over MBC, is said to have converted a citizen's complaint into a complaint and accepted the case. The Seoul Western Branch plans to receive and review MBC's own investigation results and conduct a direct investigation if additional investigation is deemed necessary. Meanwhile, on the same day, the police also began an internal investigation. Mapo Police Station in Seoul announced on the 3rd that it received a complaint from Kookmin Shinmungo on the 31st of last month requesting an investigation into suspicions of workplace harassment against Mr. Oh, and began an investigation before filing a case. On the 29th of last month, the accuser filed a complaint against MBC, the department manager, and two fellow weathercasters for violating the Labor Standards Act and causing manslaughter due to occupational negligence. The accuser said, “MBC has a legal obligation to immediately and thoroughly investigate reports of workplace harassment and implement victim protection measures in accordance with Article 76-3 of the Labor Standards Act.” In addition, it was announced that an investigation was requested into MBC President Ahn Hyeong-jun on charges of violating the Severe Accident Punishment Act. He said, “MBC did not take appropriate action even though the deceased complained of workplace bullying to four people involved,” and added, “This requires a thorough legal review of whether the management manager fulfilled his obligation to ensure the mental and physical safety of workers in accordance with Article 4 of the Serious Accident Punishment Act.” The workplace bullying incident against Mr. Oh became known when a suicide note written by Mr. Oh was made public through a media outlet on the 27th of last month. Afterwards, suspicions spread further as Mr. Oh's bereaved family announced in an interview with a media outlet that they would disclose a recording of a phone call in which the deceased met with company officials and complained about harassment in the workplace. Afterwards, suspicions were further aroused when the bereaved family revealed, “There is a voice recording of Oyoanna complaining to four MBC officials about the damage she suffered.” In investigating 'workplace bullying' cases, the key is to listen to the stories of the parties involved, that is, the person who reported the damage and the person identified as the harasser. However, in this case, since the person designated as the victim has died, securing witnesses' statements or other evidence appears to be key. The Labor Standards Act defines 'workplace bullying' as an act by an employer or worker that takes advantage of his/her position or relationship at work to cause physical or mental pain to other workers or worsen the working environment beyond the scope of work. If MBC concludes that workplace harassment does not occur because the parties involved in this case are freelancers, the Labor Office is expected to directly investigate this issue. In relation to this case, lawyer Choi Hyeon-deok of Daeryun Law Firm told Segye Ilbo on the 6th, “The key in this case is whether Ms. Oyoanna can be considered a regular worker.” Attorney Choi said, “Freelance is usually viewed as a subcontract,” and added, “I think even freelancers can be judged on employment by considering their work type.” For example, it is necessary to comprehensively determine whether MBC's internal employment rules apply, and adopt a work pattern similar to that of a full-time employee, such as going to work at a set time and working according to work instructions. He mentioned, “If Yohanna O is recognized as a worker, those involved can be punished.” He added, "Although there is no standard for punishment under the Labor Standards Act, if the perpetrator is identified, they can be sued." He said, "For example, if you can prove that there was an insult or assault, etc., it is a criminal offense." He added, "Separately, we need to determine whether it is an illegal act under civil law." Meanwhile, the police's internal investigation into this case and the Labor Office's guidance on investigating 'workplace harassment' complaints against MBC all started with complaints from third parties, ordinary citizens. The bereaved family said Regarding MBC's position to listen to the voices of the bereaved families during the fact-finding process, he expressed his negative attitude toward cooperation, saying, "It will only be a sidekick in the investigation that gives impunity," and appealed, "We want to improve the system of how broadcasters consume non-regular workers through truth, apology, and creating social public opinion."

A high school student who retaliated against the perpetrator on behalf of a friend who was a victim of a deepfake crime received protective measures rather than criminal punishment. According to the legal community on the 5th, Judge Park Eun-jin of the Suwon Family Court Juvenile Court sentenced 18-year-old Mr. A disposition was issued. In addition, he was ordered to attend special guardian education classes. Person A is accused of luring the 17-year-old victim, Person B, to his residence around August of the same year, imprisoning her, and assaulting her. At that time, Person B committed the so-called 'deepfake' crime, which is an act of compositing photos or videos targeting female students in the area. Person A learned that his friends were also victims of Person B's crime, and decided to retaliate against Person B with his acquaintances. I made up my mind. The students who participated in the assault received criminal punishment, such as suspended imprisonment. However, A, whose participation was relatively mild, was sent to the juvenile department. If handed over to the juvenile department, he can receive protective measures ranging from 1 to 10, such as consignment to custody, community service order, probation, and transfer to juvenile detention center, and no criminal record will be left. A's legal representative said, "A is a minor and should seek help from adults around him or society to solve the problem properly. “I did not intend to resolve it, and I am fully acknowledging and reflecting on my involvement,” he said, and asked for leniency, saying, “As a result of efforts to recover from the damage, the victim also does not want Mr. A to be punished.” The court acknowledged the seriousness of the case, but took into account various sentencing conditions and handed down relatively light measures, such as entrusting him to guardianship. “Mr. A is a juvenile delinquent (over 14 years old but under 19 years old),” he said. He explained that he was at an age where he could be held criminally responsible, and that he could be sent to the juvenile department by emphasizing that his level of participation was relatively weak compared to other accomplices. He added, "Because the level of punishment for special confinement is high, he could have been sent to a juvenile detention center (Nos. 9 to 10), the most severe of the protective measures. We collected various data, including agreements with the victims, to reduce the punishment."

The Seoul High Court Criminal Division 14-3 (Chief Judges Jong-hyo Lim, Hye-sun Park, and Yeong-sang Oh) sentenced him in December last year on charges of violation of the law on sexual protection of children and adolescents (forced molestation). The original trial, which sentenced Mr. A to 1 year and 6 months in prison, was overturned and sentenced to 1 year and 6 months in prison and 2 years of probation. The original trial's order to complete 40 hours each of sexual violence treatment program and child abuse treatment program and to restrict employment at institutions related to children, youth and the disabled for 5 years was maintained. Mr. A is accused of molesting his student, Ms. B, 20 times at school over a period of 7 months from 2022 to the following year. At trial. Mr. A claimed, “Because I am friendly with students, there was physical contact during class as a joke,” but “I did not intentionally molest the body, such as groping, as the victim claimed.” The first trial found Mr. A guilty on all charges and sentenced him to prison. The court stated the reason for the sentencing, saying, “The defendant, who is a teacher and is obligated to report crimes such as sex crimes and child abuse, bears even greater guilt in that he repeatedly committed crimes against the victim.” The appellate court found Mr. A guilty on all charges, as in the first trial. However, Mr. A's admission to most of the crimes and the fact that he had reached an agreement with the victim served as grounds for a reduced sentence. The appellate court ruled that "there was a significant change in the sentencing grounds of the original trial," and that "the victim also expressed the opinion that he did not want the defendant to be punished, so we judged this in his favor." Mr. A's legal representative, lawyer Kim Myeong-cheol of Daeryun Law Firm (Limited), said, "A teacher who has a duty to protect and supervise students cannot commit a sexual crime against students." He explained, “In the case of Mr. A, he was sentenced to prison in the first trial and it was difficult to overturn it. However, as a result of helping him reach an agreement with the victim in the appeal trial, he was able to avoid the prison sentence with probation.” Attorney Kim said, “Normally, if a prison sentence is imposed in the first trial, there is a high possibility that he will be detained by the court.” He added, “The agreement with the victim has an impact on the sentence, but other factors besides whether or not there was an agreement may result in a heavier punishment.” “We must consider all of these points and then respond in order to expect a favorable outcome,” he added.

Customized management required It has been almost three years since the Serious Accident Punishment Act (hereinafter referred to as the Severe Accident Punishment Act) was implemented to prevent industrial accidents, but the number of accidents is still not decreasing throughout the industry, deepening the concerns of companies. Discussions on preventing serious disasters are continuing in all walks of life, but the detailed status varies depending on the size of the company and industry, so it appears that disasters are continuing in the actual field. According to statistics from the Ministry of Employment and Labor, the total number of industrial accidents in 2022 was 136,796, of which the number of deaths reached 2,016. In particular, it was confirmed that the smaller the workplace, the more industrial accidents occur. Looking at the list of workplaces that violated industrial accident prevention obligations released by the Ministry of Employment and Labor in December of last year, there were 372 workplaces with a higher than average fatality rate (number of industrial accident deaths per 10,000 workers), and by size, workplaces with less than 50 employees accounted for the majority, at 89.8%. Recently, a Supreme Court ruling held responsibility for employers who failed to fulfill their duty to prevent accidents. The court overturned and remanded the case against the Incheon Port Corporation, which was accused of causing the death of a worker by failing to properly manage safety during the construction of the Incheon Port lock gate, with a guilty verdict. (Refer to the Supreme Court ruling 2023Do14674, sentenced on November 14, 2024) It was judged that the duty to take safety measures to prevent disasters was not fulfilled. According to the Central Disaster and Safety Act, management managers, etc. are responsible for preventing harm or risk to the safety and health of workers. To this end, work procedures must be established to identify and improve risk factors according to the characteristics of the workplace. Even after establishing a management system, measures are needed to minimize risks, such as checking at least once a year to see if improvements have been made. However, due to the problem of requiring human and material resources to establish the system, small-scale companies are bound to experience difficulties. As a result, small and medium-sized companies are maintaining the position that it is difficult to establish a safety and health system due to a lack of human and financial conditions. In order to establish a safety and health system, it is essential to deploy professional personnel such as safety and health managers and managers and establish a dedicated organization, but unlike large corporations, small businesses inevitably face financial burdens. According to the results of a survey conducted by the Korea Chamber of Commerce and Industry on 702 small and medium-sized businesses with less than 50 employees, nearly half of small businesses (50.9%) were found to be investing less than 10 million won in their annual safety management budget. Companies with almost no budget even reached 13.9%. For this reason, management by company size can be considered important. Business owners must be able to fulfill their safety and health obligations in accordance with the company's operating conditions, so that more effective management can be achieved. Setting long-term goals can also be a good idea. Conducting periodic consulting and training for executives and employees can also be considered a secondary alternative to disaster prevention. However, for this to happen, improvements in policy areas, such as clarifying the scope of relevant laws, appear to be necessary.[View full article] Severe Accident Punishment Act should be managed differently depending on company size (Shortcut) 2026-05-09T00:41:38.722Z https://www.daeryunlaw.com/en/broadcast/4631 Daeryun, sales of 112.7 billion won in 2024... Top 10 law firms in sales ‘in 9 years’ since establishment in 2016 Benchmarking of large US law firms Increasing accessibility to legal services… Kim Kook-il, CEO of a customized one-firm law firm, said, "As a result of building trust with customers... we will leap forward as a global law firm beyond the domestic market." Daeryun Law Firm announced on the 5th that it ranked 9th in the law firm industry's sales last year (2024) and entered the 'Top 10 Law Firms' 9 years after its establishment. Daeryun Law Firm said in a press release on the same day, "Since first opening as 'Daeryun Comprehensive Law Firm' in 2016, He said, “We have won the title of ‘Top 10 Law Firms with the Shortest Time to Enter the Top 10 Law Firms’ in the legal market.” Daeryun’s sales last year were KRW 112.7 billion, which is an increase of about 60% compared to the previous year (2023), when it recorded sales of about KRW 70 billion. The reason why Daeryun was able to set the record of ‘Entering into the Top 10 Law Firms with the Shortest Time’ is because of ‘the presence of advanced law firm systems such as those in the United States.’ ‘Introduction’ is the most important factor. In the case of large American law firms, it is common to establish and operate at least dozens of branch offices throughout the country. Daeryun benchmarked this and opened branch offices in major locations across the country. In addition, it established a one-firm system that assigns experts suited to each client's situation so that high-quality legal services can be provided anywhere in the country. The fact that it has expanded its business field by steadily recruiting experts in each field, including corporate, tax, and medical, is also considered the secret to its rapid growth. Last year, Daeryun completely reorganized the corporate legal group and medical pharmaceutical group within the corporation, and operated specialized teams for each detailed field. Efficiency has been improved. In addition, Daeryun has been evaluated as leading the innovation of the domestic legal market by taking the lead in introducing 'Legal Tech'. Research, development and use of legal AI are actively taking place overseas, such as in the United States and Europe, with the decision to take the lead in this global trend and increase national competitiveness. As a result, Daeryun recently opened 'AI Daeryun', which provides legal information, to the public and increased accessibility to legal services. Furthermore, Daeryun said, "Overseas. “We are also accelerating our expansion,” he emphasized. First, Tokyo, Japan and New York, USA are set as the first stage for overseas expansion, and the official opening is imminent by securing local manpower. Meanwhile, the plan is to establish itself as a leader among K-law firms by increasing foreign currency profits by expanding overseas business, including starting preparations for entering China in earnest. Daeryun Kim Kuk-il, CEO of Daeryun, said, “We will settle into the top 10 law firms in 9 years of establishment. “The biggest reason we were able to do this is because we have significantly increased the satisfaction of our clients by strengthening our professional center by actively recruiting talent,” he said. “We will continue to lead the domestic legal market based on differentiated expertise and become a ‘large law firm closest to customers.’” He added, “We will not be satisfied with our growth in Korea, but will take steps to become a world-class global law firm that leads the legal service culture in the global market in the future.” Reporter Jaejoong Yeom (yjj@joseilbo.com)[View full article] Jose Ilbo - Daeryun Law Firm ranked as ‘Top 10 Law Firms with Shortest Term’… 9 years since establishment (Shortcut) Sejeong Ilbo - Daeryun Law Firm enters ‘Top 10 Law Firms’ in the shortest time… ‘New record’ after 9 years of establishment (Shortcut) Korea Economic Daily - Daeryun Law Firm ranked as one of the ‘Top 10 Law Firms with Shortest Term’ 9 years after establishment (Go here) Segye Ilbo - Daeryun Law Firm ranked among ‘Top 10 Law Firms with Shortest Term’… 9 years since establishment (Shortcut) Law Leader - Daeryun Law Firm, ranked as one of the ‘Top 10 Law Firms with the Shortest Term’ 9 years after establishment (Go here) Financial Today - Daeryun Law Firm, sales of KRW 112.7 billion last year...

On December 5 last year, the 1st Administrative Department of the Suwon District Court ruled in favor of the plaintiff in a lawsuit filed by A against the superintendent of an education support office in Gyeonggi-do to cancel the school violence disciplinary action. In 2023, A was handed over to the School Violence Countermeasures Review Committee on charges of hitting B, a fellow schoolmate, on body parts and verbally abusing him. He received a written apology, a ban on contact, threats, and retaliation, and a ban on 4 hours of volunteer work at school. However, Group A objected to this decision and filed an administrative lawsuit against the Office of Education. At the time of the incident, he maintained a close relationship with Boy B, and only played a prank on a close friend and never committed school violence. The defendant immediately refuted this. Group A's violence was mild at first, but gradually became more severe, and considering the level of abusive language directed at Group B, it was justified to consider it a case of school violence. The court ruled that the punishment for Group A was somewhat excessive. The court said, "The plaintiff's increasing intensity of hitting the victim's body and swearing at her constitutes school violence as defined by the old School Violence Prevention Act," but said, "The victim maintained a close relationship with the plaintiff until the relationship was severed, and these acts occurred at a time when the relationship was maintained as friends." He added, "During this process, the victim did not actively express his refusal, and the plaintiff did not harass him further after the relationship was severed." Kim Young-joo, a lawyer at Daeryun Law Firm (Limited), said, "In the process of taking action regarding school violence, we must be careful not to unfairly infringe on the rights of not only the victim but also the perpetrator.

At the event, National Assembly member Choi Bo-yoon (People Power Party), Kim Kuk-il, CEO of Daeryun Law Firm (Limited), Lee Il-hyung, attorney at Daeryun Law Firm (Limited), and other pharmaceutical and bio industry workers attended the event to share issues related to Evergreening's patent strategy and plan a future direction. This seminar was also attended online through a live broadcast and webinar through the official YouTube channel of Daeryun Law Firm (Limited). Attorney Lee Il-hyung, a former in-house lawyer at Celltrion, who was the presenter, introduced major precedents related to pharmaceutical patents and shared various patent strategies currently being applied by pharmaceutical and bio companies and points to keep in mind when applying for patents. Evergreening is a method for companies to continue to maintain profits through follow-up patents even after the expiration of existing material patents. Even if a pharmaceutical company succeeds in developing a new drug with great difficulty, the price of the drug plummets after the patent expires, and the need to establish such a strategy to maintain the patent for a longer period of time arises. Attorney Lee emphasized that this strategy can be a powerful weapon for original pharmaceutical companies and that endless opportunities are created for pharmaceutical companies that understand and respond well to patent strategies. He then presented patent strategy plans such as formulation patents, composition patents, salt change patent applications, isomer patent applications, hydrate/crystal form inventions, and dosage/administration method improvement patent applications. In addition, specific actual cases were analyzed and related legal services such as prior art search, patent avoidance strategy design, patent application, and patent infringement litigation were introduced. People Power Party National Assembly member Choi Bo-yoon, who hosted the seminar that day, said, “As interest in specific cases and designs of evergreening specialized strategies in the pharmaceutical industry has grown, I hope that today’s seminar will serve as an opportunity to learn more closely and prepare countermeasures.

I feel devastated that the service is being mentioned as a subject of regulation just because it has ‘artificial intelligence (AI)’ without even examining what legal problems there are.” Park Dong-il Daeryun Law Firm In an interview with the Korea Economic Daily on the 2nd, the representative lawyer (8th time on the bar exam, pictured) explained the background of filing a constitutional petition against Article 5 of the ‘Rules on Lawyer Advertising’, which restricts advertising of programs using AI technology. This rule, established by the Korean Bar Association in October last year, stipulates that in order for a law firm to advertise the fact that it is applying an AI program to its work, it must be certified by the Bar Association and supervised by a responsible attorney. It is also prohibited to allow consumers to directly use AI programs. Afterwards, the Korean Bar Association imposed disciplinary action against Daeryuk Aju, a law firm that developed the free legal consultation chatbot ‘AI Continent Aju,’ and Daeryuk Aju eventually discontinued its service. Daeryuk Aju began an appeal process, saying it would examine the unfairness of the disciplinary action. Even as the Korean Bar Association does not bend its hard-line stance, domestic law firms continue to knock on the legal tech market. Daeryun, which recently joined the ranks of large law firms with annual sales of 120 billion won, introduced ‘AI Daeryun’, which is similar to AI Continent Aju, on the 16th of last month. Daeryun claims that the lawyer advertising rules infringe on the basic rights of law firms, such as freedom of professional practice and freedom of expression. Representative attorney Park said, “This is a technology developed by the corporation itself at a considerable cost, but it is unfortunate that rather than taking measures to protect it, they are now censoring and supervising it.” He criticized, “In the United States, where more than half of large law firms have adopted AI technology, when a new service is introduced, it is first allowed and then partially regulated only when side effects arise.” He criticized, “Korea’s approach is to regulate everything first and see, so international competitiveness is bound to decline.” Daeryun’s argument is that AI legal services are directly related to people’s convenience. He emphasized, “The logic that lawyers should have a monopoly on legal knowledge is an arrogant idea.” Reporter Jang Seo-woo (suwu@hankyung.com)[View full article] “The bar association is setting up legal AI scams… It should be allowed first and regulated later like the U.S.” (Shortcut) 2026-05-07T08:37:30.383Z https://www.daeryunlaw.com/en/broadcast/4616 A man in his 20s who was accused of participating in a crime by serving as a voice phishing collector was found not guilty. According to the legal community, the first division of the Supreme Court confirmed the original trial verdict that acquitted Mr. A, in his 20s, who was indicted on charges of aiding and abetting fraud last month. Mr. A was indicted on charges of collecting 47 million won in cash from voice phishing victims in 2022 and delivering it to related gang members. During the trial, Mr. A Although he admitted to collecting cash, he denied intentional aiding and abetting of fraud. He claimed, "I was hired by an auction company based on a resume posted on a job search site and performed the assigned work," and "I was not aware at all that a voice phishing crime was being committed." The first trial court sentenced Mr. A to one year in prison and two years of probation. "Mr. A was hired by the company without an interview process, and the compensation he received was considerable compared to the work actually performed. The judgment was, "Considering that it was excessive, the working conditions were sufficient to raise suspicion." However, the second trial court overturned the first trial ruling and declared Mr. A not guilty, saying that he could not be considered to have been aware of the possibility of committing a voice phishing crime. The Supreme Court also dismissed the appeal, saying there was no error in the appellate court's judgment. Attorney Shim Ga-hyun of Daeryun Law Firm, who represented Mr. A, said, "Mr. A went to work wearing a neat suit in accordance with the company's instructions. “He showed a sincere attitude by responding to customers’ requests for IDs by taking pictures,” he said. “This was because he firmly believed that he was employed at a legitimate company, and it appears that the court also took this into consideration.” Reporter Jeong Eui-jin (jej88@ikbc.co.kr)[View full article] Voice phishing collector in his 20s, found not guilty by Supreme Court (link) 2026-05-14T06:17:06.148Z https://www.daeryunlaw.com/en/broadcast/4615 A 40-year-old man was sentenced to a fine for swearing at an employee and interfering with the operation of a patrol car while drunk. “The crime is serious... Considering the fact that he agreed with the victim and deposited it with the police, etc.” A man in his 40s was sentenced to a fine after being handed over to trial on charges of causing a disturbance at a restaurant while drunk and obstructing the work of the police who arrived. On December 11 last year, the Daejeon District Court Cheonan Branch fined Mr. A, an office worker in his 40s, who was indicted on charges of obstruction of business and obstruction of official duties. A fine of 7 million won was imposed. Mr. A is accused of interfering with business operations by causing a disturbance at a restaurant in August last year while drunk and swearing at employees and other customers. In addition, Mr. A was also accused of interfering with the execution of official duties by arguing with the police who arrived after receiving a report and blocking the operation of a patrol car. The court sentenced Mr. A to a fine. The court said, “The defendant was drunk and interfered with the work of others and used physical force against the police officer who was on the scene to interfere with his duties. Considering the circumstances of the crime, the crime is serious.” However, the court said, “The defendant reached an agreement with the restaurant owner and deposited a small amount of money for the victim police officer,” and stated, “We took into consideration the fact that he has no history of being punished for the same crime and that he is reflecting on his mistakes,” and stated the reason for sentencing. Representative A represented Mr. A. Attorney Lim Hye-jin of Daeryun Law Firm (Limited) said, “If you assault or threaten a public official, such as a police officer or firefighter, you will be charged with obstruction of official duties, which is punishable by imprisonment for up to 5 years or a fine of up to 10 million won.” He added, “During the trial, it was emphasized that Mr. A began receiving treatment to abstain from alcohol in order to avoid committing alcohol-related crimes.” He continued, “Based on this, the court judged that Mr. A was not at risk of reoffending and sentenced him to a suspended sentence. “I can see it,” he added.

After the fire, aircraft delays and cancellations continued, and concerns about aircraft safety are growing. Gimhae Airport, which was crowded with people during the Lunar New Year holiday, caused great confusion in the aftermath of the accident. On the 29th, 15 (10%) of 143 flights scheduled as of 5 p.m. were delayed. Air Busan found that 4 out of 42 flights (10%) were canceled. On the 30th, 22 out of 145 flights (15%) scheduled as of 3 p.m. were delayed. It was found that 11 out of 37 Air Busan flights (30%) were delayed. Gyu-ho Kim (44), a resident of Sasang-gu whom I met at the airport that day, said, “There are a lot of people during the holidays, but the bottleneck seems to be getting worse due to the lack of apron due to accidents.” Mr. Kang (31), who visited Gimhae Airport on the 29th, said, “I feel sad when I think of the people who experienced dizzying accidents during the golden holidays.” “I don’t know if something bad is happening at the airport,” he said. Mr. Lee (49), who arrived at Gimhae Airport on the 28th after traveling overseas with his family, said, “This time, when I boarded the plane, I felt more anxious than before when I sensed even the slightest shaking or abnormality. However, I am more hesitant to board the plane because a fire in the cabin of the cabin, not a defect in the aircraft, can occur at any time and anywhere.” Travelers are also anxious about boarding the plane and bringing in auxiliary batteries. The atmosphere is growing. Mr. Lee (43), an office worker who is about to go on his honeymoon in March, said, “I usually take a auxiliary battery with me because using Google maps and other things consumes a lot of battery while traveling, but after reading articles related to this fire, I am worried that I might be held liable if an accident occurs.” Meanwhile, there are various opinions regarding whether the passenger can be held responsible if a fire occurs due to an auxiliary battery brought on board. Dong-il Park, a representative attorney at Daeryun Law Firm, said, “Unless the passenger hid items prohibited from being carried on board the aircraft or stored them in a particularly dangerous condition, it is difficult to hold the customer entirely responsible.” He added, “If there is a problem with the battery itself, this is a problem that could also be transferred to product liability, so it does not seem easy to determine who is responsible.” Reporter Son Hee-moon (moonsla@busan.com) Reporter Kim Seong-hyeon (kksh@busan.com)[View full article] “I’m anxious so I’ll get on a plane.” Gimhae Airport is in chaos (Shortcut) 2026-05-06T08:25:43.584Z https://www.daeryunlaw.com/en/broadcast/4613 [Incheon District Court] "Living nearby and attending the marriage ceremony of children together" Even if the husband suffered from an infectious disease and separated for more than 13 years before his death, it was ruled that if the husband lived about 10 to 20 minutes away by car, attended the wedding ceremony and funeral of a relative, and attended the wedding and funeral of a relative together, the husband is a beneficiary of survivor's pension under the National Pension Act as a breadwinner. According to Article 73, Paragraph 1 of the National Pension Act, the spouse, children under the age of 25, parents, etc. who were earning a living at the time of the beneficiary's death can receive a survivor's pension. However, if they cannot clearly be considered dependent due to reasons such as running away from home or disappearing, they are excluded from the surviving family eligible to receive a survivor's pension (Article 47 of the Enforcement Decree of the National Pension Act). Ms. A, who married her husband B in March 1990, began to separate around August 2009, but B supported her family, including A, until around September 2014. Afterwards, she covered some of the family's living expenses by transferring money to the account of her daughter, who was born to her and her ex-wife, until just before her death in March 2023. B has been paid the old-age pension stipulated by the National Pension Act since January 2017. After B's death, A filed a claim to the National Pension Service for a survivor's pension as stipulated in Article 72 of the National Pension Act on the grounds of B's ​​death, but when it was decided that the person was not eligible to receive a survivor's pension on the grounds that 'the relationship of making a living is not recognized,' A filed a lawsuit (2023 Guhap 56099). On December 12, Incheon District Court Administrative Division 1-1 (Presiding Judge Kim Seong-su) ruled in favor of the plaintiff, saying, "Pursuant to Article 73, Paragraph 1 of the National Pension Act and Article 47 of the Enforcement Decree of the National Pension Act, the plaintiff is a spouse who was supported by B at the time of B's ​​death and is entitled to beneficiary of survivor's pension," and ruled in favor of the plaintiff, "Cancel the decision not to qualify for survivor's pension benefits." The court pointed out, "Although B lived separately from the plaintiff, in light of the fact that B and the plaintiff went back and forth, had their children married together, and attended a relative's congratulations and condolences together, this cannot be considered a runaway or disappearance," and added, "The evidence submitted by the defendant alone is insufficient to admit that there were cases where the plaintiff could not be considered to have a clear dependent relationship due to reasons such as running away from home or disappearance." The court said, "The legal marital relationship is the most essential part of the guarantee of marriage and family life under the Constitution (Article 36, Paragraph 1 of the Constitution), and the National Pension Act Enforcement Decree does not set detailed standards for spouses, such as whether they live in the same residence as other surviving family members and, if they live differently, whether they receive financial support such as living expenses." Survivor's pension is not a matter of paying insurance premiums and receiving corresponding benefits, but a derivative pension that is determined depending on whether the spouse is married or dependent. “Unlike the case of other surviving family members, where payment is determined based on dependency (see Constitutional Court decision 2017 Heonma 432, decided on February 28, 2019), the spouse should view payment as determined by marital status regardless of dependency, unless there are special circumstances,” he said. He added, "If dependency is strictly applied to the spouse, the former spouse who received a portion of the pension right through property division upon divorcing the pensioner can continue to receive part of the pension amount regardless of dependency even after the pensioner's death, while the spouse who maintained a legal marriage may not receive the survivor's pension at all depending on dependency."

In a global market where pharmaceutical companies face fierce competition, the end of patent expiration no longer means losing their game. This is because the ‘Evergreening’ strategy is becoming increasingly popular. This strategy of dominating the market 'always green' by adding patents one by one makes it possible to generate overwhelming profits beyond simple survival. Evergreening strategy emerged as a hot topic at the 'Pharmaceutical and Biotechnology Patent Strategy Seminar' hosted by Daeryun Law Firm's Medical Pharmaceutical Group on the 24th. At this seminar, attorney Lee Il-young (Daeryun Law Firm) explained in detail, focusing on cases, how the bug-greening strategy is being used to extend the market monopoly period of domestic and foreign pharmaceutical companies. The ever-greening strategy is a strategy to delay the entry of generic drugs into the market by applying for new patents or changing indications, dosage forms, crystal forms, etc. before existing patents expire. The drug mentioned as a representative example is Pfizer’s hyperlipidemia treatment ‘Lipitor (atorvastatin)’. This drug has become the number one sales blockbuster worldwide, symbolically demonstrating the success of the pharmaceutical industry's evergreening strategy. Specifically, Phyto has dominated the hyperlipidemia treatment market, monopolizing the market for about 20 years since filing for a substance patent in 1987. However, rather than simply relying on material patents, the exclusive period was extended as much as possible by applying for crystalline form patents and formulation patents one after another. Attorney Lee said, "Pfizer changed the crystalline form of Lipitor to prevent existing generic products from being approved, and designed a solid patent portfolio to prevent generic products from easily entering the market even after the expiration of patent rights." He emphasized that this strategy goes beyond simple technological superiority and is directly related to the pharmaceutical company's profit generation. In particular, at the seminar on this day, Evergreen Discussion continued about the possibility of the strategy conflicting with the Fair Trade Act. It is pointed out that if a certain pharmaceutical company intentionally abuses its patent rights to prevent generic drugs from entering the market, it may be subject to regulation by the Fair Trade Commission. In fact, lawsuits frequently occur for this reason in the United States and Europe. However, there are not many such lawsuits in Korea yet, and Daeryun explained, "The legal standards for judging patent abuse are not clear, so there are limits to the Fair Trade Commission's intervention." As in the case of Lipitor, foreign pharmaceutical companies actively utilizing the evergreening strategy In contrast, domestic pharmaceutical companies are relatively unsystematic when it comes to establishing patent strategies. Attorney Lee advised, “Domestic pharmaceutical companies also need to establish a systematic patent strategy from the early development stage and view it as a long-term investment.” Meanwhile, generic pharmaceutical companies are strengthening their defense strategies, such as invalidating evergreen patents or filing lawsuits for violation of the Fair Trade Act. For example, some generic companies have succeeded in breaking patent rights through patent invalidation trials, and are trying to reduce cases of reverse payment agreements. Regulations are also strengthening. In addition, lawyer Lee said that close cooperation between pharmaceutical companies and legal experts is important to maximize the effectiveness of the evergreen strategy, and emphasized, "Patent strategy is a matter directly related to the survival of the company beyond simple cost. Pharmaceutical companies must build a patent portfolio with market strategy in mind from the research and development stage." This seminar attracted attention from the related industry as an opportunity to once again remind us of the impact of patent strategy on consumer accessibility and market competitive structure beyond simply corporate profits. In addition, there was a consensus that in order for domestic pharmaceutical companies to overcome the cost burden and become competitive in the global market, they need to maintain a balance with regulations while actively using strategies such as evergreening. Reporter Lim Tae-gyun (i21@kpanews.co.kr)[View full article] Constant patent extension strategy... ‘Evergreening’ ambivalence (link) 2026-05-13T15:04:25.474Z https://www.daeryunlaw.com/en/broadcast/4611 Those who are opposed to the volatility supercharging system say it is a misunderstanding and are trying to strengthen communication. Lotte BioLogics is experiencing internal strife over the new personnel system that will be implemented starting this year. There are voices among employees that the regulations, such as not paying part of the contracted salary if the performance is low, are unreasonable. The company's position is that it is a misunderstanding that occurred during the first introduction of the system. Another reason is that communication becomes difficult as employees are physically separated. Currently, Lotte BioLogics is operating separate offices in Incheon and Seoul until the factory in Songdo, Incheon, is completed. As for the controversial performance-based pay system, Lotte BioLogics has been implementing a new personnel system called ‘Growth Level (GL)’ starting this year. The main point is to subdivide the existing four rank system (Chief, Assistant Manager, Responsible, Senior) into six levels (GL 1 to 6). There was also a cap (upper limit) for each department to limit promotions. What caused dissatisfaction among employees was the revamped performance bonus system. Lotte Biologics chose to accumulate 5-10% of employees' contract annual salary as a variable bonus and give differentials based on performance. There are a total of 5 grades for performance, and the top two grades receive 110% and 120% of their accumulated points, respectively. If you have accumulated 10 million won, you will receive 11 million won or 12 million won. The middle level receives the accumulated amount back without change. The problem is the lower level. Employees who receive the bottom two grades receive minus (-) 50% and -100% of the volatility bonus, respectively. If you receive the lowest grade, 10% of your maximum contract annual salary may be lost. This is the point where employees feel unreasonable. In response, the company explained that paying differentiated performance bonuses was a system that had been in place before. It was stated that the consent of the majority of all employees was obtained and that there were no legal problems. There were some procedural problems, but some employees said there were problems with the process of obtaining consent. Last year, Lotte BioLogics collected opinions for and against the new personnel system from employees. Employees signed for and against the bill while the human resources team watched from somewhere in Seoul. It is pointed out that the situation at the time was an uncomfortable environment where it was difficult for employees to make free decisions. One employee said, "We even had individual interviews with employees who did not sign and obtained their consent." Nam Seo-hye, a labor attorney at Daeryun Law Firm, said, "If it is recognized that a sufficient exchange of opinions among workers was not possible under the supervision of the human resources team, or that consent was forced on workers who expressed opposition, it is considered unfair intervention and interference and cannot be considered a legitimate consent procedure." The company emphasized that there was no coercion, such as giving disadvantages to people who opposed it. The human resources team said they were there simply to explain the system. Separately, there are demands for improvement in the stock option (stock purchase option) system that Lotte BioLogics has unconventionally introduced. The payment terms must be disclosed transparently. Lotte BioLogics introduced a system to grant stock options through self-evaluation every year in 2023. Then, in March of last year, stock options were paid to about 100 employees for the first time. There were complaints among employees that they received less quantity than promised. However, the company's position is that it has never promised the quantity to be provided in advance. The work environment in which communication is difficult is cited as the cause of this conflict. Currently, Lotte Biologics is building a bio campus in Songdo, Incheon. Until completion, employees are working in separate offices in Incheon and Seoul for each department. Physically, it is difficult to provide feedback on the new system smoothly. An official from Lotte BioLogics said, "We are aware that communication is difficult due to physical reasons, etc.," and added, "We are working to improve this, but we will think about more ways to help employees feel it."

On the 5th of last month, Changwon District Court Chief Judge Jeong Yun-taek, Criminal Division 1, sentenced Mr. A, in his 60s, indicted on fraud charges. It was confirmed that the verdict was “the defendant is not guilty.” Mr. A recommended investing in virtual currency to Mr. B, who had become close to him through his usual abetment. Mr. B, who responded, sent approximately 400 million won to Mr. A on 81 occasions over a period of 3 years and 6 months, but did not receive any money back. The prosecution charged Mr. A with fraud, believing that he had deceived Mr. B into recommending an investment even though he had no intention or ability to pay the money from the beginning. Mr. A completely denied the charges. Mr. A refuted, saying, “I never promised to guarantee the principal to Mr. B,” and “The reason I did not return the money was because the investment failed and resulted in a loss. It is not that I had no intention of paying.” He also said, “There are many personal items, such as receiving money on behalf of errands at Mr. B’s request,” and also argued, “All the money sent from Mr. B cannot be considered investment money.” Changwon District Court Chief Judge Jeong Yun-taek, who heard this case, told Mr. A. He sentenced him to not guilty. Chief Judge Jeong Yun-taek said, “When looking at the details of the remittance, it includes many small amounts that cannot be considered investments,” and judged, “It is difficult to view all the remittances listed in the indictment as investment money.” He continued, “The victim continued to remit money for a long period of time even though he did not receive any actual profits.” He also added, “Despite making several remittances for virtual currency transactions, the credibility of the testimony was also low, such as saying that he did not know much about virtual currency. “It is weak.” He ruled, “It has not been clearly proven that the defendant lied about guaranteeing the principal and high profits.” He also ruled that the facts of the indictment were not proven beyond a reasonable doubt. Attorney Song Jae-baek of Daeryun Law Firm (Limited), who represented defendant A in this lawsuit, said, “In order to be recognized as guilty for a specific indictment, evidence with enough probative power beyond a ‘reasonable doubt’ is needed,” and “In this case, a recording file or “No reasonable evidence, such as a memorandum, was submitted to support Mr. B’s claim, and the court appears to have also taken this into consideration,” he explained.

Among them, there may be people who go beyond simple thinking and search for related information directly on the Internet. However, in most cases, you only encounter unfamiliar legal terms, and it is difficult to obtain easy explanation and understanding. What types of property are subject to division? The court's position is that, in principle, property acquired through joint cooperation between the couple during marriage (so-called 'common marital property') is subject to division. Specifically, for example, things that anyone can easily think of, such as deposits, stocks, insurance, cars, and apartments, are included in the basic division targets. Furthermore, items such as cash, expensive jewelry, watches, and furniture accumulated in the house may also be subject to division. One spouse may receive money from a third party. If a couple is currently living in a rented house, the future contract holder will receive a refund of the rent deposit from the landlord, and the deposit may be included in the division. In addition, severance pay and national pension are also considered subjects of division that are easy to overlook. Even if you cannot receive it right away because there is a long period of time left until receipt, it can be divided. What about debt? In addition to the positive (+) property mentioned above (the court uses the term 'positive property'), negative (-) property (also using the term 'negative property') is also subject to division. A representative example is a home mortgage loan. Just as the house a couple lives in is subject to division, the debt incurred to buy the house must also be shared by the couple. In this way, it can be said that the property subject to division is very diverse. Even if you are well aware of what types of property are subject to division, you may encounter difficulties when following the related procedures. This is when you do not know the property your spouse owns. So how can you find out your spouse's assets? During a divorce lawsuit, the couple lists their respective assets and submits it to the court. It is difficult for non-lawyers to conceal assets through false information. This is because various documents must be attached to prove that the information stated is true. Based on this list, identify the other party's assets in detail. If you have any doubts or need information, apply for fact-finding to public institutions, banks, etc. Most of the reasons for the increase in divorce lawsuits are because the process of identifying assets is difficult and takes a long time. However, not all assets found in this way are subject to division. There is a concept called ‘unique property’. Although this is an extreme example, let's say you received an inheritance from your parents the day before you filed for divorce in court. However, if the inherited property had to be shared with the spouse, it would feel extremely unfair. Likewise, if one of the couple has property that was acquired through inheritance or gift or was held before marriage, there is a need to assert that it is 'unique property'. Since it is not property acquired through joint cooperation between the couple, it could be argued that it should be excluded from division or that these circumstances should be taken into consideration in the division ratio.

(Shortcut) 2026-05-10T21:37:55.106Z https://www.daeryunlaw.com/en/broadcast/4598 Daeryun Law Firm (representative attorneys Kim Kuk-il and Ko Byeong-jun) enacted a rule banning advertising of non-certified AI legal programs, claiming it was a "violation of basic rights such as freedom to practice one's profession" Daeryun Law Firm (representative attorneys Kuk-il Kim and Byung-jun Ko) announced on the 22nd that it filed a constitutional appeal with the Constitutional Court, claiming that the Korean Bar Association's rule banning advertising of artificial intelligence (AI) legal counseling programs violates the Constitution. In October of last year, the Korean Bar Association issued a ban on AI legal programs that were not certified by the Association through Article 5 of the Rules on Advertising for Lawyers. Advertising was banned. The rule stipulates that lawyers cannot advertise that they use AI programs in their work other than those certified by the Bar Association and supervised by the responsible attorney. It also banned advertisements that allow consumers to directly use AI programs or connect them with lawyers. Daeryun argued that the rule violates the basic rights of lawyers and law firms. A Daeryun official said, "Although AI legal services are a useful tool that allows consumers to access more accurate legal information, the Bar Association's complete ban on related advertisements is a measure that infringes on the freedom of professional practice and freedom of expression." In addition, the fact that the Bar Association's AI certification standards are insufficient was also pointed out as a problem. The Bar Association stated in Article 5, Paragraph 3 of the ‘Rules on Lawyer Advertising’ that “the Association’s certification standards shall follow separate regulations,” but certification of the AI ​​program itself is impossible because no specific enforcement regulations have been established. Daeryun argued, “The Bar Association’s unilateral ban on AI-related advertisements in a situation where there are no certification standards is a measure that weakens the competitiveness of the legal market.” The reason why Daeryun filed this constitutional petition was because the Bar Association’s recent move to review disciplinary action continued after it released its self-developed AI legal service. The Korean Bar Association is said to be considering a response plan after seeing that the service may violate regulations. A Daeryun official said, "As AI legal services are being actively introduced overseas, the Korean legal profession also needs more flexible regulations to secure global competitiveness. Rather than unconditional regulation, an institutional mechanism that can promote innovation in the lawyer industry should be established." Meanwhile, Daeryun said that the AI legal consulting service will not replace the role of lawyers, but will develop into a more professional legal service. We plan to continue to raise the need for AI utilization, emphasizing that it is a means of promoting AI.

Daeryun plans to further strengthen its litigation and investigation response work through the recruitment of Attorney Cho. Attorney Cho is from Seoul National University.

Appointed as the head of the Human Rights Bureau at the Ministry of Justice in 2009, he established human rights-related policies and took the lead in protecting the human rights of crime victims. Afterwards, he was promoted to chief prosecutor after accumulating experience in investigating large-scale corporate criminal cases, finance, and taxation at various prosecutors' offices across the country. In particular, while serving as chief prosecutor. He developed a reputation as a 'chief investigator' by leading large-scale cases such as the investigation of the Four Major Rivers Project, the investigation into the recovery of fines from former presidents Chun Doo-hwan and Roh Tae-woo, and the investigation into illegal tax evasion by large corporations. After retiring from public office as the 55th Seoul Central District Prosecutors' Office in 2013, he also served as a representative attorney at the law firm Yoon & Yang. During his time as a lawyer, he focused on investigations and trial response through forensic techniques. Of course, we have provided legal services based on our outstanding dispute resolution capabilities, including arbitration and mediation. As a result, Attorney Cho successfully performed legal advice and investigative response work in various corporate-related fields, including abuse of market dominant position by leading domestic and international companies, unfair trade practices, and corporate mergers.

Criminal Division 4-2 of the Seoul High Court (Chief Judges Kwon Hyeok-jung, Hwang Jin-gu, and Ji Young-nan) dismissed the prosecution's appeal and declared him not guilty at the sentencing hearing for Mr. A (27), who was indicted on charges of violating the law on sexual protection of children and adolescents (forced molestation) on the 11th of last month. The original judgment was upheld. Mr. A is accused of molesting Ms. B (then 16 years old) on two occasions after putting her in a vehicle in November 2022. Mr. A got to know Ms. B through a mobile chat app, and it was confirmed that the date of the incident was their second meeting. During the investigation, Ms. B was found to have made a statement to the effect that ‘Mr. A forcibly touched important parts of her body even though she refused several times.’ The prosecution requested a fine of 10 million won for Mr. A based on Ms. B's statement. At the trial, Mr. A's legal representative pleaded not guilty based on the fact that the victim's statement was inaccurate and inconsistent. In addition, the vehicle's black box, which recorded the scene at the time of the incident, was submitted as evidence. After reviewing the black box transcript and the contents of the statement, the first trial court decided that it was difficult to say that Mr. A molested Ms. B. The court declared the victim not guilty, saying, "The victim's statement was overturned several times before reaching this court, and the evidence submitted did not contain anything that could lead to inference whether molestation had occurred." Attorney Oh Gyeong-hoon of Daeryun Law Firm (Limited), who is Mr. A's legal representative, said, "In this case, the victim's claims kept changing from the investigation stage, and it was difficult to view the contradictions in the victim's statement as simply a mistake due to the passage of time or a difference in the detailed description method," and "Especially at the time of the incident." “When compared with the file recorded in the black box, there were parts that were different from the facts. Based on this, we were able to prove that Mr. A had not molested the victim and was acquitted.” Reporter Hwang Jeong-won (jwhwang@mt.co.kr)[View full article] “The black box saved my life”...

According to the legal community on the 21st, the Suwon District Court postponed the sentencing of a fine of 5 million won against a man in his 20s, Mr. A, who was indicted on assault charges. Mr. A was indicted on charges of assaulting the face and shoulder of fellow soldier B in January of last year. He is also accused of biting B's finger and injuring him. At the time, the two men lost their emotions while arguing. It was investigated that Mr. A committed this crime because he became angry and could not control his anger. Mr. A admitted the charge, but appealed for leniency, saying that he committed the crime accidentally and that an agreement was reached with the victim. Both men also mentioned that they had returned to society after completing their military service. The court said, "Assault within the military unit is likely to disrupt military discipline," but added, "The defendant has been discharged from the military, so there is no risk of reoffending in a similar environment, and he has reached an amicable agreement with the victim and does not want to be punished." Attorney Kim Young-soo of Daeryun Law Firm, who was in charge of Mr. A's defense, explained, "In the case of general assault, the crime of impunity against the will is established under the criminal law, but military criminal law applies to assault in the military, so criminal punishment is imposed regardless of the victim's intention to punish." He added, "We mentioned this during the trial process and emphasized that if the victim had expressed his intention not to be punished, the case would be concluded with a decision to dismiss the indictment." “It appears that the court also accepted this and gave maximum leniency,” he said.

On November 29 last year, the 5-3 Criminal Division of the Suwon District Court overturned the original trial that sentenced Mr. Sentenced to two years. He was also ordered to perform 80 hours of community service and take 40 hours of violence treatment classes. Mr. A was suspected of injuring his lover, Mr. B, by swinging objects, including a cell phone, in May 2023, suspecting him of an affair. As a result, Mr. B suffered injuries to his face and body, and was diagnosed at a hospital that he needed about 4 weeks of treatment. During the investigation, Mr. A was sentenced to probation for violating the Road Traffic Act in the past, and it was during this period that he committed a crime. It was revealed that the first trial sentenced Mr. A to 10 months in prison. The court stated the reason for the prison sentence, saying, “The injuries suffered by the victim were not light,” and “The defendant committed the crime again despite being on probation.” Mr. A filed an appeal on the grounds of unfair sentencing. Mr. A explained that he could not control his anger and committed the crime accidentally. At the same time, he emphasized that he tried to restore his relationship with Mr. B after the incident. The appeals court accepted Mr. A's claim. The court said, “The nature of the crime is not good considering the circumstances and content of the crime, the risk, and the extent of the victim’s injuries,” but said, “The defendant tried to restore the relationship with the victim after the crime and did not use any more violent words or actions.” He then stated the reason for sentencing, saying, “The defendant also admitted to the crime and was reflecting on his mistakes, and took into account the fact that he reached an amicable agreement with the victim.” Attorney Kim Tae-hwan of Daeryun Law Firm (Limited), who is Mr. A’s legal representative, said, “If you commit a crime again during the probation period, you cannot receive probation,” he explained. “However, if the sentence is passed after the entire period has elapsed, you can receive probation.” He added, “In this case, the crime was committed during the probation period, but the original and appellate court sentences were issued after the period ended.” He added, “We were able to receive a reduced sentence by emphasizing that the relationship between the two is amicable at the present time along with Mr. Reporter Kim Jong-cheol (jckim99@sportsseoul.com)[View full article] A man in his 30s who injured his lover while on probation had his sentence commuted on appeal (link) 2026-05-13T21:13:14.966Z https://www.daeryunlaw.com/en/broadcast/4588 Executives and employees of Korean Air and Asiana Airlines, who completed the business combination process that lasted about 5 years and 7 months, will receive business combination encouragement money this week. However, as there has been no specific mention of the merger incentive for LCC (low-cost carriers), which are subsidiaries of both companies, attention is focused on whether incentives will also be paid to them in the future. According to the aviation industry on the 20th, Korean Air will receive a 'business combination incentive' worth 50% of the bonus upon the completion of the merger of Korean Air and Asiana Airlines on the 21st. In the case of Asiana Airlines, the incentive money is scheduled to be paid on the 24th. Previously, Korean Air decided to pay a ‘merger approval congratulatory money’ upon the completion of the business combination through a wage and collective agreement (collective wage agreement) in May last year. It has been reported that the payment of incentives paid to executives and employees of Asiana Airlines has recently been confirmed. In a message sent to executives and employees of Asiana Airlines on the 16th, Korean Air Chairman Cho Won-tae said, “I could sense your fatigue due to the corporate combination review,” and encouraged, “We will ensure that you receive fair opportunities and compensation according to your abilities and efforts during the process leading up to the integration and after the integration.” In particular, Chairman Cho has been actively taking care of Asiana Airlines, calling it “one family.” He also became a hot topic as he departed from the United States on Asiana Airlines, not Korean Air. On the 10th, Chairman Cho flew on an Asiana Airlines flight between Incheon and LA. This is interpreted as an attempt to emphasize the image of Asiana Airlines and 'one family' both internally and externally. In fact, in his New Year's address on the 2nd, he emphasized, "Last year, there was a big change in which Korean Air, Asiana Airlines, and group companies came together under the roof of Hanjin Group," and "I envision a smooth process of becoming a true family." However, there are some executives and employees of Jin Air, a subsidiary of Korean Air, and Air Busan and Air Seoul, subsidiaries of Asiana Airlines. The sound of ballmen is coming out. This is because, unlike paying incentives to executives and employees of both companies following the merger of Korean Air and Asiana Airlines, no plans were announced to pay incentives to subsidiary LCCs. An industry official said, “Various procedures related to the merger are in progress within the subsidiaries, but they are completely excluded from discussions on merger incentives,” and added, “I hope that LCCs will also take care of it in order to boost the morale of employees.” The corporate combination incentive is a financial compensation paid after a company merges with another company. Although it is not a legal obligation, it is practiced customarily and is used by many companies to stabilize labor-management relations and smooth organizational integration. However, some believe that financial compensation for LCCs is also necessary as the purpose of paying incentives for business combinations is to encourage workers' motivation to work. However, some say that related discussions are premature because the merger of the three LCC companies has not yet been specifically completed. Choi Young-jin, an attorney at Daeryun Law Firm, explained, “In the case of corporate combination incentive payments, the compensation is paid after the company merges with another company.” He added, “In other words, since the integration of the three LCC companies has not been completely completed yet, even if the incentive payment is paid, it will be after a complete merger has occurred.” Reporter Seojin Ahn (seojin@mk.co.kr)[View full article] “Why aren’t we giving incentives for corporate combinations?” Chairman Cho Won-tae, who emphasized ‘one family’, will he also take care of LCC?

Entertainment media outlet Dispatch reported on the 17th that Kim Min-hee had a child with director Hong Sang-soo and was due to give birth this spring. According to reports, the two found out they were pregnant last summer and reportedly visited an obstetrician/gynecologist together until recently. Director Hong and Kim Min-hee, who were embroiled in dating rumors in 2016, acknowledged this fact the following year. Director Hong married A, a woman of the same age, while studying abroad in the United States in 1985, and they have a daughter. He filed an application for divorce mediation against Mr. A in 2016, but it was canceled because Mr. A actually refused to receive the relevant documents. Afterwards, the divorce suit filed by Director Hong was dismissed in 2019 following the court's judgment that Director Hong was primarily responsible for the breakdown of the marriage. It was reported that Director Hong did not appeal this and they are legally maintaining their marital relationship. Since dating Director Hong, Minhee Kim has only appeared in his films. Meanwhile, issues regarding birth registration regarding Kim Min-hee's pregnancy remain. Lawyer Daeryun Law Firm, who spoke to Segye Ilbo on the 17th, explained that if you register a birth, you will be registered as a child in the family relationship register. If Hong Sang-soo's future child is recognized as his biological child, he can be registered as a new child in Hong Sang-soo's family relationship register. A parental relationship with a child is established regardless of whether the couple is married. However, with the introduction of the family relationship register system, only direct relationships such as parents and children are displayed, so if the family relationship register of Hong Sang-soo's wife, Mr. A, is issued, the children to be born are not visible.

The plan is to do its best to improve customized legal services by actively utilizing generative AI, such as providing fast and accurate legal information to clients 24 hours a day and allowing prompt consultation with affiliated lawyers. Legal ‘Legal Tech’, which combines services and cutting-edge technology, is currently spreading rapidly in many overseas countries and causing changes in the legal market. In nearby Japan, AI lawyers are providing free phone consultations, and AI-based lawyer apps have also been released in the United States and France. Daeryun also plans to introduce AI legal services in line with this global trend and lead a change in the domestic legal industry paradigm. The scope of Daeryun AI services is not limited to simple delivery of legal information. Its characteristic is that it analyzes and reviews users' questions, summarizes optimal information in a short period of time, and provides necessary answers. For example, when a user inputs a specific situation, such as a civil or criminal problem or legal dispute, AI provides similar legal information and precedents. A system has also been built to review the AI's answers. Daeryun plans to support the convenience of users by providing a window where they can have a direct conversation with a lawyer after the consultation with AI is completed. In this process, a general review and supplementation of Daeryun AI's answers is carried out, including whether they are legally appropriate and whether they contain false information. In particular, the AI ​​is attracting attention as it was created based on the vast amount of data Daeryun has accumulated over a long period of time, including legal information and precedents. Our professional lawyers participated in writing answers during the AI learning process, further increasing accuracy and reliability. Daeryun Kim Kuk-il, CEO of Daeryun, said, "Legal Tech is an important key to opening the future of the legal market. Daeryun will pursue public social contribution through the introduction of AI services and provide quality legal services by presenting customized solutions to customers." He continued, "According to the regulations of the Korean Bar Association, advertising AI services requires approval from the Korean Bar Association. “Daeryun will comply with this and lead the innovation of domestic legal services by informing the public of the introduction of AI services and the positive impact that LegalTech will have on the legal market.” Reporter Kim Nam-ha (skagk1234@dailian.co.kr)[View full article] Dailyan - Daeryun Law Firm introduces AI legal service...

First, Attorney Shin Min-soo has a special history of experience in both the court and prosecution organizations. He graduated from Seoul National University Law School and served as a prosecutor in numerous prosecutors' offices, including the Ulsan District Prosecutors' Office and the Seoul Southern District Prosecutors' Office. Afterwards, he was appointed as a judge and served as a judge at Daegu District Court, Incheon District Court, and chief judge at Ulsan District Court. In particular, he has accumulated over 20 years of experience in the legal field, handling cases in various fields, including violent crimes such as sexual violence and property crimes, as well as labor and medical care. Attorney Shin said, “I personally led the entire process from the investigation of the case to the trial,” and added, “As I have experience as both a prosecutor and a judge, I think I can be of great help in carrying out cases in the future.” After being appointed as a prosecutor at the Seongnam Branch of the Suwon District Prosecutors' Office in 2000, Attorney Seok-Ju Yoon worked as a deputy chief prosecutor at the Anyang Branch of the Suwon District Prosecutors' Office, the Goyang Branch of the Uijeongbu District Prosecutors' Office, the Pohang Branch of the Daegu District Prosecutors' Office, and the Chief Prosecutor of the Suwon District Prosecutors' Office. He has been involved in the prosecution organization for a long time and has handled major criminal cases such as taxes, tariffs, and drugs, and has even received a commendation from the Prosecutor General. Attorney Yoon said, “I am happy to be a member of Daeryun,” and added, “I will use all of my experience as a prosecutor to handle the case thoroughly, from initial action to type analysis and follow-up management.” Attorney Shin works at the Daegu headquarters branch office, and Attorney Yoon works at the Jeonju branch office. Based on their expertise, they will carry out and supervise not only local violent crimes and cases, but also criminal cases coming from all over the country. Kim Kook-il, CEO of Management, said, “We expect that the recruitment of the two lawyers will revitalize the criminal response group,” and added, “We hope that each of them will use their capabilities to the fullest to resolve various criminal cases, including sexual crimes, corporate embezzlement and breach of trust, and the environment.” Reporter Oh Hyo-jin (editor@venturesquare.net)[View full article] Venture Square - Daeryun Law Firm Recruits Attorneys Shin Min-soo and Yoon Seok-ju (Click here) Segye Ilbo - Daeryun Law Firm recruits attorneys Shin Min-soo and Yoon Seok-ju, both former judges and prosecutors (link) Legal News - Daeryun Law Firm recruits former Chief Judge Shin Min-soo and former Chief Prosecutor Yoon Seok-ju (Go here) 2026-05-13T12:01:07.214Z https://www.daeryunlaw.com/en/broadcast/4555 According to the results of the '2024 1st School Violence Survey' announced by the Ministry of Education in September last year, 2.1%, or 65,000 people, of the 3.25 million students in the 4th grade of elementary school to the 3rd grade of high school across the country answered that they have experienced school violence. What was most notable in the survey results was that elementary school students had the highest victim response rate. 4.2% of students responded that they were victims of school violence this year, which was confirmed to be the highest figure since 2013 (3.8%). This is why school violence is no longer dismissed as children's fights. The level of punishment also appears to be strengthening. According to statistics from the National Police Agency's youth protection activity platform 'Youth Polnet', the number of school violence offenders arrested by the police in 2023 was approximately 15,000, a 7% increase compared to the previous year. This means that when you commit school violence, you can not only be subject to disciplinary action at the education office level but also criminally responsible. As 'sensitivity' to school violence increases, various conflicts arise in the field. In particular, as parents' intervention becomes more frequent, a considerable number of so-called 'counter-reports' are being made by those who have been identified as perpetrators. In a survey released last year by the Green Tree Foundation, a school violence prevention organization, 40% of 380 parents responded that they had been reported by both parties. In fact, there is also a case that the author has experienced. Ms. A, who was attending a local elementary school, was harmed by her classmate, including having her hair pulled and being cursed at. Her parents reported the damage, but what they got back was not an apology but a counter-report. Because of this, Ms. A was also pointed out as a perpetrator and was suspended from attending school. Accordingly, Ms. A's parents requested legal assistance. At the School Violence Countermeasures Review Committee held later, the author emphasized that Ms. A did not commit any acts of violence and asked that action be taken in consideration of the offending student's unrepentant attitude, such as filing a false accusation. The Office of Education's School Violence Response Review Committee acknowledged the actions of the offending student and took measures such as school volunteer service and special education. Additionally, the School Violence Review Committee made it clear that Ms. A did not commit any acts of school violence as claimed by the perpetrator. Thanks to the quick response, Ms. A was able to resolve her injustice. As can be seen from the above example, 'timely response' in school violence cases can be said to be the most important key to resolving the problem. Even if you are a victim, you can be accused of being a perpetrator, and if you do not properly explain the situation at the time and the damage caused by it, proper disciplinary action cannot be taken. The same is true when you are in the position of an offending student. If you do not respond properly during the school violence committee process, you may be subject to harsher punishment than what you actually committed, or you may have to bear heavier criminal liability or civil liability for damages. Therefore, once you are involved in school violence, you need to quickly find a legal expert, get help, and go through all the procedures like any other criminal case.

According to the legal community on the 13th, the 5-2nd Criminal Division of Suwon District Court overturned the original trial ruling and sentenced a housewife in her 50s, A, who was recently indicted on charges of fraud, to eight months in prison. Ms. A conspired with members of a voice phishing organization in 2023 and received about 16 victims from about 16 victims. They are accused of intercepting and delivering 400 million won. At the time, the gang members impersonated investigative agencies or encouraged them to use low-interest loan products and asked for money from the victims. It was investigated that Mr. A received cash from the victims and gave it to a voice phishing organization. Mr. A was hired by a company after posting his resume on a job search site to look for a job, and denied the charges, saying that the company was a voice phishing organization. At the same time, he collected sales money from shopping mall customers who wanted to pay in cash. He claimed that he only responded because he thought it was a part-time job, and that he was not aware of the crime at all. The first trial sentenced him to two years in prison, saying, “Hiring was done without specific procedures such as interviews,” and “Considering that the money received was also a large amount, it cannot be considered as payment for general goods.” It also added, “He was vaguely aware that he was participating in a voice phishing crime.” Dissent, both the prosecution and Mr. A appealed. The prosecution said there were multiple victims. For this reason, it was argued that the sentenced sentence was light, and Mr. A emphasized that he committed the act without intention, saying that he was deceived by the company and committed the act. The appellate court ruled that Mr. A's appeal had merit. The court said, "Because the scale of damage from voice phishing is significant, the guilt of the defendant who participated as a method of collecting cash cannot be taken lightly," but added, "Given the defendant's lack of social experience, it appears that he was deceived by high-ranking voice phishing organization members." “Therefore, it is difficult to say that the defendant participated in the crime with active intent by knowing the entire story of the crime,” he said. “It is also confirmed that he reimbursed the victims and that the profits obtained were not large compared to the amount of damage.” Lawyer Seo Bong-ha of Daeryun Law Firm, who represented Mr. A, said, “Mr. A contributed to the crime of voice phishing by receiving cash from the victims and delivering it to the organization.” “It appears that the sentence was commuted because it was acknowledged that there was no active intent,” he explained.

A fine was handed down to the perpetrator, who was put on trial on charges of spreading false information about the other woman and defaming her by suspecting her boyfriend's affair. Judge Seo Jin-won, Criminal Division 6, Changwon District Court, sentenced Mr. A, who was indicted on charges of violating the Act on Promotion of Information and Communications Network Utilization and Information Protection (defamation), to a fine of 500,000 won in November last year. Previously, It was revealed that Mr. A committed this crime because he suspected that his boyfriend, who worked as a gym trainer, was having an affair with Mr. B, one of the members. Mr. B had continuously received threatening messages from Mr. A, whom he had never met before, such as “I will tell all of this to my acquaintances” and “I will chase and harass you for the rest of my life.” In addition, it was confirmed that Mr. A even sent content containing false information to Mr. B’s acquaintances. Mr. A’s crime did not stop there. He also threatened to spread this content to famous online cafes in the area. Accordingly, Mr. B's side claimed that he had not done anything inappropriate and that he was suffering so seriously that his daily life was difficult due to the threats and spread of false information targeting people around him. The court ruled that Mr. A's actions amounted to defamation by false information. Judge Seo ruled, “There is no basis to conclude that the victim secretly met or communicated privately with the defendant’s boyfriend as claimed by the defendant. During the investigation and trial, the victim gave consistent statements, and the defendant was also vaguely aware of the possibility that his claims may not be true.” Attorney Yonghwan Choi of Daeryun Law Firm (Limited), who is B’s legal representative, said, “Like this case, false statements were made for the purpose of slandering people. “Recently, if you cause damage to others by revealing facts, you will be punished under the Information and Communications Network Act, and it has become a problem that not only celebrities but also ordinary people are victims of such crimes,” he said. “In particular, if you spread lies, you will be punished much more severely than defamation by stating the facts, so caution is required because if false information is spread through the Internet, the damage can become difficult to control.” Reporter Kim Jong-cheol (jckim99@sportsseoul.com)[View full article] Perpetrator fined for spreading false information: “She was flirting with my boyfriend” (Shortcut) 2026-05-11T07:56:11.092Z https://www.daeryunlaw.com/en/broadcast/4530 Daeryun Law Firm (Limited), which provides legal services throughout the entire M&A process, including review of contract regulations, announced on the 10th that it had signed an MOU with the Korea M&A Exchange (KMX).

On November 5 last year, the Seoul Central District Court ruled in favor of the plaintiff in the product price lawsuit filed by supplier company A against seller company B. The two companies signed a product supply contract in October 2022. Delivery was carried out in two stages, and Company A charged a total of approximately 79 million won. The problem occurred when Company B did not pay the price. This is because Company A unilaterally prepared an estimate and set the price, and did not even present a detailed estimate. He then argued that the amount charged by Company A was unjustified because most of the goods initially supplied were defective. Company A refuted this. Although a separate contract was not written, an agreement was reached between the two companies on the unit price of supply at the time of signing. In addition, he emphasized that all defective products were returned and resupplied as new products, and that payment of a specific amount was requested several times. The court ruled in Company A's favor. The court said, "Company A demanded payment several times, specifying the amount as 79 million won when payment was not made after the second delivery," and added, "Company B continued to delay repayment due to difficult circumstances." It continued, "During this process, company B did not protest due to over-quotation, defective products, etc." and determined that the unpaid product price was 79 million won. Lee Ki-eun, a lawyer at Daeryun Law Firm who represented company A, said “Company A notified Company B, which was delaying payment, that it had issued a tax invoice specifying the price of the goods,” he said. “Company B also recognized this and announced its intention to repay the amount, so it appears that the amount requested by Company A was fully acknowledged.” Reporter Hwang Jeong-won (jwhwang@mt.co.kr)[View full article] A company that did not pay, claiming that the cost calculation was wrong...

Police say, “No retaliatory driving behavior, first time in a lane reduction zone... poor driving.” A case has emerged where the police decided not to forward a driver in his 20s who was suspected of intentionally causing a traffic accident while retaliating. The Daegu East Police Station recently decided not to forward a man in his 20s, Mr. A, who was booked on charges of special property damage and special injuries, without charges. It was confirmed that he did. In October 2024, while driving on the highway, Mr. A was booked on charges of intentionally causing an accident by driving in retaliation, such as changing lanes when the driver of the car behind honked his horn in anger. During the investigation, Mr. A completely denied the charges, saying, “The accident occurred because I was not used to driving, but it was not intentional.” At the same time, he emphasized that he was so inexperienced at driving that an accident occurred in January 2024 in which he crashed his vehicle into a building. The police who investigated this case determined that Mr. A was not guilty. As the reason for not sending the case, the police said, “The black box video at the time of the accident did not show typical signs of retaliatory driving, such as rapid acceleration or rapid deceleration,” and “The suspect did not say anything in the vehicle expressing bad feelings, such as swearing at the victim.” The police also said, “The suspect did not have a long driving experience, the accident occurred on the first road, and considering the fact that the suspect got out of the vehicle and filed a complaint with the insurance company immediately after the accident, the suspect was not trying to threaten but to overtake.” “It appears that he did it,” he said, adding, “It is difficult to admit that the suspect’s actions clearly had the intention to cause harm to the victim.” Attorney Song Seok-min of Daeryun Law Firm (Limited), who represented suspect A in this case, said, “If you intentionally cause a traffic accident, such as through retaliatory driving, special property damage or special injuries, etc. may be applied depending on the degree of damage.” He added, “In this case, Mr. A’s intentionality is not recognized as inexperienced driving is accepted as the cause of the accident.” “Therefore, it could be concluded at the police level,” he said.

Promise to make payment before Lunar New Year holidays. Recently, in front of Rice Processing Plant A in Yulbuk-ri, Cheongbuk-eup, Pyeongtaek-si, Gyeonggi-do. Even though it was early in the morning, there were five or six people gathered at the entrance. These were rice farmers who came to meet the company representative. There was occasional shouting between the representative and the farmer. I left the rice here last fall, but the payment was not made properly for over two months. “I left the rice here on October 24th of last year. Usually, the payment is made the next day or within 3 days at the latest, but I have been putting it off for so long that I am bleeding every day.” Park Eun-seong (76), who lives in Oseong-myeon, Pyeongtaek-si, came here with his wife out of frustration. He has been farming rice on leased farmland in Pyeongtaek for over 40 years. Last year, he worked hard in a 53,000㎡ (16,000 pyeong) leased rice field, but did not receive any compensation, so he cannot even think of making a farming plan for this year. “I didn’t just visit the rice processing plant here today. I must have made more than 10 calls. I must have made 30 to 40 phone calls. Each time, he promised, ‘I will definitely give you money in a few days,’ so I trusted him and waited for the year to pass.” The amount of dried rice entrusted was 21,600 kg, worth over 41 million won. In the meantime, I received 5 to 10 million won on several occasions while scolding and filing lawsuits, but there is still an unsettled balance of 13 million won remaining. It was discovered that other farmers also received payments ranging from several million won to tens of millions of won. The nightmare for these farmers began with the company saying that they would pay more than other farmers. Another victimized farm, who requested anonymity, complained, “I left it to Rice Processing Plant A without hesitation when they said they would pay 2,000 won more per 40kg than other places, but I had no idea I would be kicked in the foot like this.” He added, “They keep putting off the settlement date, so now I’m in a state of despair.” In the local community, it is widely heard that the company is in serious financial trouble. A truck driver who specializes in rice transportation in Pyeongtaek said, “There have been rumors since 2023 that this rice processing plant has not been able to pay farmers on time. So I told a close friend to be careful.” “There are rumors that it exceeds 400 million won,” he said. Rice processing plant A explained that the management difficulties are temporary and that the farmers’ receivables can be sufficiently resolved. The representative of the company said, “It is true that the flow of funds has been tight due to severe natural disasters last year, which resulted in yields falling to the 65% range and many wholesalers going bankrupt due to blocked loans. However, as a significant portion of our receivables may be resolved early this month, we will prioritize settlement with farmers before the Lunar New Year holiday at the latest.” Despite the company’s explanation, the conflict with farmers is not expected to subside easily. Mr. Park raised his voice, saying, “We cannot just wait for the company in question to break its promises several times,” and added, “We will look for ways to hold them legally responsible, including filing a police complaint, so that there are no more innocent victims like us.” Experts emphasize that in order to respond to such non-payment issues, a thorough written contract must be established. Lim Chae-won, senior attorney at Daeryun Law Firm, explained, “Even if you are a regular business, you need to make an effort to write a contract for every transaction. In particular, the contract should clearly stipulate payment terms and deadlines and penalties that arise if they are violated, so that they can be used as important evidence in legal disputes.” He added, “It is also worth considering establishing a payment guarantee system for the government to establish a transaction culture that matches the delivery of agricultural products and the timing of payment in the mid- to long-term.” Reporter Moonsoo Lee (moons@nongmin.com)[View full article] “I will give you a high price for rice”... Make a promise and don't know about the settlement (Shortcut) 2026-05-12T10:59:44.130Z https://www.daeryunlaw.com/en/broadcast/4498 Recently, guaranteeing the rights of children born out of a non-marital relationship has emerged as an important topic, and social discussions on legal issues arising from childbirth and child-rearing without the premise of marriage are actively developing. In fact, the number of children born out of wedlock is steadily increasing. Looking at the 'Birth Statistics' released by Statistics Korea in August last year, the number of children born out of wedlock increased to △6,900 in 2020, △7,700 in 2021, △9,800 in 2022, and △10,900 in 2023. One in 20 newborns is born out of wedlock. Parents with minor children must fulfill their childcare duties until their children become adults. According to Article 3 of the Act on Securing and Supporting Child Support (Child Support Implementation Act) and Article 64 of the Family Litigation Act, a biological father or mother who does not raise a minor child must pay child support determined by agreement or court ruling to the party directly raising the child. This applies regardless of marital status. The problem is that there are very few cases where an unmarried caregiver receives child support from the other parent. In order for an unmarried caregiver to claim child support, he or she must first file a request for recognition with the court and have their paternity recognized under the law. However, this process is also not smooth because in most cases, contact with the birth mother or father is lost. In addition, even if the child is recognized as the parent through a lawsuit, it will take a long time because child support litigation must be filed separately. Even if child support payment is confirmed after going through all procedures, the reality is that it is difficult to receive actual child support. According to the 'Legislative Impact Analysis Report of the Child Support Noncompliance Act' published by the National Assembly Research Service, as of 2021, the rate of single mothers receiving child support by claiming child support from their children's biological father was 38.3%, which is less than half. This is because measures against default have not had a significant effect. If a person who is obligated to pay child support does not pay child support on time, he or she will be subject to legal punishments ranging from fines to imprisonment. However, since it rarely leads to actual enforcement, there is criticism that such sanctions are useless. Accordingly, the government announced that it will introduce a 'child support advance payment system' that will first provide child support to single-parent families who are not receiving child support from next year and then collect it from non-custodians. The state first pays child support of up to 200,000 won per month and then exercises its right to indemnification to directly recover child support from non-custodians. However, this system only applies to caregivers whose income is 150% or less of the median income. We welcome the government's operation of such a system, but not only are those who can receive preferential treatment under the advance payment system limited, but the amount of 200,000 won per month seems to be an insufficient amount to raise a child. I believe it is necessary to establish a more thorough child support relief system to prevent single-parent families from falling into the blind spot of legal protection.

According to the legal community on the 7th, the 3rd Division of the Supreme Court confirmed the original judgment that acquitted Mr. A, who is in his 50s, and was recently indicted on fraud charges. Mr. A was on trial on charges of receiving and embezzling 260 million won in the name of investment money from Mr. B, an acquaintance, over a period of four years from 2016. In relation to this, Mr. A pleaded not guilty, saying, "We were unable to return the principal due to investment failure and had no intention of defrauding the victim." The first trial court found that Mr. A had intent to defraud and sentenced him to one year in prison. "He made an investment with a high risk of principal loss without informing him of the detailed circumstances, and deceived the victim by thinking he would guarantee the principal even though he did not have sufficient ability to repay the principal in case of investment failure." However, the second trial ruled. The court declared him not guilty, saying, "It was not proven beyond reasonable doubt that Mr. A had the intention to deceive the victim." First, the second trial court explained that it cannot admit that Mr. A proceeded to engage in deceptive acts as defined in the criminal law for fraud based solely on the fact that he promised to guarantee the principal. In order to be punished for fraud, Mr. A must deceive the victim by methods such as informing false information about a specific investment destination or investment method, but the court ruled that there were no such circumstances. He pointed out, “As the victim earned high profits of 7-8% from the investment product he had subscribed to at the recommendation of the defendant in the past, he naturally came to trust the defendant, and accordingly, there was an aspect of voluntarily paying the investment money.” He also added that he took into account the fact that Mr. A only used the money he received from the victim for actual investment purposes and paid 80 million won worth of agreed interest on the investment money for about four years before the stock investment failed. The prosecution immediately responded to the second trial ruling. The appeal was filed, but the Supreme Court dismissed it and confirmed the lower court's verdict of not guilty. Attorney Song Eui-seok of Daeryun Law Firm, who represented Mr. A, explained, "In property crimes, there is a need to clearly distinguish between default on debt and fraud under civil law," and explained, "The promise to return the principal made between the two in this case has no meaning beyond the burden of civil debt."

On November 28 last year, the 4-3 Criminal Division of the Uijeongbu District Court held an appellate hearing on Mr. The original trial was overturned and sentenced to 2 years and 6 months in prison and 2 years of probation. Mr. A was put on trial on charges of hitting and killing a teenager, Mr. B, who was crossing the road while driving a truck on a road in Paju in June 2023. At the time, Mr. A was found to be driving at a speed of 77 km/h in a section where the speed limit was 60 km/h. At the time, it was confirmed that Mr. B was jaywalking while drunk and fell asleep near the central guardrail of the road, unable to wake up. The first trial court sentenced Mr. A to 2 years and 6 months in prison. The court explained the reason for the prison sentence, saying, “The accident occurred because the driver did not properly look left and right in front while driving over the speed limit, and no measures were taken at the scene, including providing relief to the victim.” Mr. A, who was dissatisfied with this, filed an appeal. Mr. A claimed, “It was difficult to think that a person would fall down on an 8-lane road with a median divider.” At the same time, he mentioned that the incident occurred late at night and emphasized that he was not aware that the accident had occurred. The appeals court sentenced Mr. A to probation. The court said, “The victim who jaywalked on an eight-lane road was also at fault,” and added, “We also took into account the amicable agreement reached with the bereaved family and the fact that the victim was reflecting.” Jeong Jae-bong, a lawyer at Daeryun Law Firm (Limited) who represented Mr. “It appears that these factors were recognized as reasons for a reduced sentence,” he said.

Daeryun Medical & Pharmaceutical Group has expanded its existing medical litigation group. It was expanded and reorganized to provide comprehensive legal services in fields that require expertise, such as pharmaceuticals and bio. A representative from Daeryun emphasized on this day, "As we proceed with this large-scale recruitment and expansion of personnel, the group will consist of a total of three centers (medical civil affairs, pharmaceuticals/bio/healthcare, and medical advisory), and will respond to overall matters ranging from medical disputes to regulations of related industries and risk management." The head of the group is a former chief judge of the Suwon District Court. Attorney Park Jeong-gyu (Judicial Research and Training Institute 28th class) is in charge. Attorney Park leads the group at the forefront based on his experience handling a variety of cases, including medical, civil, criminal, administrative, and labor cases. The roles of providing solid support behind Attorney Park were played by Attorney Kim Kyeong-hwan, head of the Medical Civil Litigation Center, and attorney Seohyung Lee, head of the Pharmaceutical, Bio, and Healthcare Center. Attorney Kim, who serves as the head of the Medical Civil Litigation Center, is registered as a medical lawyer with the Korean Bar Association and has successfully led various disputes, including medical law violations and medical accidents. In addition, Attorney Lee, who was recently appointed as the center director of the Pharmaceutical, Bio, and Healthcare Center, is a qualified pharmacist and serves companies, individuals, medical professionals, and others. He has taken the lead in resolving the institution's medical legal issues. Attorney Lee is achieving outstanding results in the fields of clinical trials and digital healthcare. As the legal demand in the medical market grows, there are a large number of lawyers who are medical professionals with medical practice know-how. Lawyers such as Choi Yoon-jeong and Yoon So-young, who hold pharmacist qualifications, Kim Jin-ju, a medical specialist registered with the Korean Bar Association, and Hong Seung-pyo, a former oriental medical doctor, are active in the medical pharmaceutical group based on their experience in performing medical work. In particular, Attorney Yoon is an examiner at the Health Insurance Review and Assessment Service. Based on the experience he gained while serving as a legal expert in the Planning and Coordination Office of the Ministry of Health and Welfare, he successfully led various cases, including health insurance benefits and dispositions by the Ministry of Health and Welfare. In addition, he recently hired attorney Lee Il-hyung, an expert in the pharmaceutical field. Attorney Lee, a former in-house lawyer at Celltrion, is a specialist with a pharmacist's license and qualifications as a patent attorney and an American accountant. He has handled numerous medical-related legal advice, including patents and investment contracts, and civil and criminal cases. In the case of medical disputes that take a long time, expert assistance is essential. In particular, the entire process from research and development, product launch, market distribution, approval and maintenance of drugs and medical devices requires support from experts related to intellectual property rights, fair trade, etc. Accordingly, the medical pharmaceutical group plans to collaborate with specialized groups such as intellectual property rights, fair trade, and administration within the corporation to do its best to provide related advice and respond to lawsuits. Group leader Park Jeong-gyu said, "There are parts of medical practice that are difficult to understand unless you are actually engaged in the medical field. Related disputes He explained, “This is why it takes a long time for an issue to occur, and in addition, legal issues related to the rapidly developing digital healthcare field are occurring due to the application of new technologies such as big data and artificial intelligence (AI).” He added, “The medical pharmaceutical group has expanded its scope of work to help in this area, and the group’s capabilities have been further strengthened by securing a system that can deal with complex issues.” He added, “We will continue to provide professional assistance to ensure that customers receive the results they want.” “We plan to continue,” he said.

Unjust enrichment must be returned" A ruling was made that the design fee paid after the verbal agreement for the project for new housing construction must be returned if the implementation contract was not concluded. Seoul Central District Court Civil Affairs 1006 Judge Geon-ho Choi recently pronounced a ruling in favor of the plaintiff in a lawsuit for other (financial) claims filed by Mr. A, a rental business operator, against his acquaintance Mr. B. The two men In July 2021, we decided to build a new building together and signed a joint business agreement. In this process, Mr. B guaranteed a profit of 450 million won and presented 35 million won as a design fee. Mr. A, who accepted this, first transferred 30 million won. However, the final contract that Mr. A received two months later contained different contents. As fees that did not exist before were added and some of the construction costs were changed, the profits were calculated to be about 200 million won, which is less than the amount originally proposed. Accordingly, Mr. A told Mr. B that he would not proceed with the new construction project. He then requested a return of the 30 million won he had previously remitted. However, Mr. B refused to return the business contract and the final implementation contract on the grounds that they were independent matters. Mr. B emphasized that he had no obligation to return the money, saying that he had only received a design fee according to a previous contract. Judge Geon-ho Choi of the Seoul Central District Court, who heard this case, ruled in favor of the plaintiff A. Judge Geon-ho Choi said, “The plaintiff thought that a contract guaranteeing a profit of 450 million won would be concluded and made the remittance in advance before the final contract,” and ruled, “The final contract and the business contract cannot be viewed as separate and independent matters.” Judge Choi continued. “Because the final contract has not been concluded, the defendant has no reason to receive payment of 30 million won,” the ruling ruled, “and the plaintiff has an obligation to return it.” Attorney Lee Ki-eun of Daeryun Law Firm (Limited), who represented plaintiff A in this lawsuit, said, “If damage was caused by obtaining another person’s property without legal cause, this constitutes unjust enrichment.” He added, “In this case, as the contract negotiations between the two were changed, it was legally necessary for Mr. A to pay the design fee.” “It can be seen that the cause has disappeared,” he said.

According to the legal community on the 2nd, the Busan District Prosecutors' Office recently decided not to indict 44-year-old Mr. A, who was suspected of violating the Special Act on Prevention of Insurance Fraud. Mr. A collided with a car while driving a motorcycle at an intersection in Busan in August last year. Afterwards, Mr. A filed a claim for medical expenses from the insurance company. However, the insurance company claimed Mr. A's insurance. He filed a complaint against Mr. A to the police, claiming insurance fraud because of his extensive past accident history. “At the time of the accident, Mr. A was fully aware that a vehicle was approaching by glancing around, but he did not avoid it and caused a collision,” he said, adding, “This type of accident has often occurred in the past.” However, during the prosecution investigation, Mr. A denied the charges, saying he did not intentionally cause the accident. He has been in the delivery business for a long time, and because of this, he is bound to be more likely to have a traffic accident than other drivers. It was presented as evidence. The prosecution believed that the other party was responsible for the accident and decided that Mr. A's actions were not intentional and decided not to indict him. Mr. A's legal representative, lawyer Kim Kyung-hwan of the Daeryun Law Firm, said, "Mr. A had to undergo a prosecution investigation on suspicion of fraud even though he did not deceive the insurance company and claim insurance money," and added, "In this case, the accident occurred due to the other vehicle's negligence, and above all, they did everything they could, including activating the brake system." He explained, “Considering Mr. A’s occupational characteristics, even if there are many accidents of the same type, we cannot conclude that all of them are insurance fraud.” He added, “In particular, as we have never exaggerated the damage to receive a large settlement or insurance payment, we tried to reveal the unfair part.”[View full article] When I filed a claim for traffic accident treatment, the insurance company said it was ‘fraud’.

In November last year, Criminal Division 3 of the Gwangju District Court (Judge Han Sang-won) sentenced Mr. It was postponed. A suspended sentence is a ruling that postpones the sentence for a certain period of time for a crime that is judged to be minor, and allows the person to avoid the sentence when two years have passed from the date of the postponement. After expiration of the period, no criminal record will remain. In March of last year, Mr. A was indicted on charges of viewing, downloading, and possessing illegal footage uploaded to an anonymous Internet bulletin board. At the time, it was confirmed that the data downloaded by Mr. A included actual sexual violence crime videos. The prosecution summarily indicted Mr. A with a fine of 2 million won, but Mr. A objected and requested a formal trial. At the trial, Mr. A's legal representative said that Mr. A had illegally filmed the video. Although the download was attempted, it was not completed, so it was only an attempt, and asked for leniency. The court also accepted Mr. A's argument and decided to postpone the fine. A judge said, "It is acknowledged that the defendant watched films or reproductions that could cause sexual desire or shame in the victims against their will," but added, "The sentence is determined by taking into account the defendant's admission of wrongdoing and deep regret, and the quantity of illegal films watched." The reason for the sentencing was revealed. Attorney Shim Ga-hyeon of Daeryun Law Firm (Limited), who represented Mr. A, said, "The defendant was deeply blaming himself for not being able to overcome his curiosity and committing a crime. The defendant, who was preparing to transfer to a public company, was in a situation where if he was criminally punished for this incident, he would not only have the opportunity to change jobs but also be fired from his job." He added, "The law has been revised so that even simple viewing of illegally filmed videos can be punished.

On the 28th of last month, Judge Joo-wan Kim of the 11th Administrative Division of the Seoul Administrative Court ruled in favor of the plaintiff in a lawsuit filed by worker A against the Korea Workers' Compensation and Welfare Service to cancel the disapproval of medical treatment. Mr. A suffered a fractured wrist while playing at a sports event hosted by an in-house futsal club last April. I applied for medical care benefits to the Korea Workers' Compensation and Welfare Service. The Corporation decided to disapprove the medical treatment. Considering that club membership and activities were voluntary participation of employees and the company did not force them to attend events, the reason was that this could not be viewed as part of work performance. Mr. A, who was dissatisfied with this, filed a lawsuit. According to Article 30, Paragraph 4 of the Enforcement Decree of the Industrial Accident Compensation Insurance Act, accidents that occur in situations where workers' participation in events are necessary for labor management or business operation according to social norms and the employer recognizes this as a normal or customary matter are defined as occupational accidents. During the lawsuit, Mr. A said, "The club in question was an organization formed to strengthen the bond between executives and employees, and the company also encouraged club activities for the purpose of labor management." He also claimed that the company specifically managed and supervised the club. Mr. A's side emphasized, "The club officials wrote and reported activity reports every month, and the company also paid subsidies according to the members' attendance status." The court sided with Mr. A, saying that the Korea Workers' Compensation and Welfare Service's disapproval of medical care should be canceled. Judge Kim explained, “Unless there are special circumstances, it is reasonable to assume that the overall process of the formal activities or events of an in-house club established with the approval of the company was under the control or management of the employer.” In addition, “As the game in this case corresponds to a regular meeting of a club managed and supervised by the company, it should be considered that it was under the control of the employer even if there was no compulsion to attend the game.” In-tae Bang, a lawyer at Daeryun Law Firm (Limited), who represented Mr. A, said. He said, “Even if you suffer an accident while participating in an event outside the company that is not regulated as work, there is a precedent from the Supreme Court that it is an occupational accident if the overall process of the event is under the control of the employer.” He also said, “In this case, promotion of each club was done through the company website, and last year, a vote was even held to select the best club.” He added, “It appears that the court also took this into consideration.”[View full article] Worker injured in company club competition...

The reality is that the domestic law firm receives only a certain fee and the American law firm takes most of the profits. As a result, domestic law firms are focusing on hiring and promoting high-ranking public officials or executives of large corporations every year, or using office managers to receive consulting and senior fees from corporate or individual clients for domestic legal work. However, it is difficult to expect an increase in sales proportional to the increase in the number of lawyers through domestic operations alone, and the profitability of domestic law firms and the average salary of lawyers are decreasing every year due to the deepening of the sales sharing phenomenon. Accordingly, Daeryun has risen to the ranks of large law firms in 2024, but we are feeling the limitations of the domestic legal market and are in the process of improving our constitution to become a global law firm that provides the best service to foreign clients by hiring foreign lawyers based on AI legal tech and online marketing, just like at home.

This agreement is expected to be a meaningful step toward improving the welfare of the disabled in the local community. The agreement ceremony was attended by Daeryun Law Firm's staff, including attorney Kwon Min-kyung, head of the Daegu-Gyeongbuk General Headquarters, and attorney Noh Gyeong-guk, head of the Gimcheon-gu U.S. Office. The main contents of the agreement include ▲provision of free legal advice once a year ▲discounted benefits for hiring a lawyer ▲comprehensive support through advice from lawyers, accountants, tax accountants, etc. upon request from welfare centers.

Accordingly, as the number of drinking parties naturally increases, the risk of drunk driving also increases. According to the drunk driving accident analysis data released by the Korea Transportation Safety Authority, the number of drunk driving accidents that occurred in December and January were 4,025 and 3,727, respectively. All were higher than the overall monthly average of 3,582 cases. The number of deaths due to the accident also approached 100. The level of punishment for drunk driving varies depending on the number of arrests and blood alcohol level. If you are caught once, if your blood alcohol content is between 0.03% and less than 0.08%, your license will be suspended and you will be imprisoned for up to 1 year or a fine of up to 5 million won. If your blood alcohol content is between 0.08% and less than 0.2%, your license will be revoked and you will be imprisoned for 1 to 2 years or a fine of 5 to 10 million won. If your blood alcohol content is over 0.2%, you will be subject to 2 to 5 years in prison or a fine of 10 to 20 million won. You are subject to the following fines. If you have a history of drunk driving within 10 years, the sentence becomes more severe. If your blood alcohol concentration is less than 0.2%, your license will be revoked and you will be imprisoned for between 1 and 5 years or fined between 5 million won and 20 million won. If it is 0.2% or more, the sentence is strengthened to between 2 and 6 years in prison or a fine of between 10 million won and 30 million won. Also, if you fail to comply with a breathalyzer test to avoid being caught for drunk driving, you must be careful because this itself is subject to punishment. If you refuse to take the test, you will be sentenced to imprisonment for between 1 and 5 years or a fine of between 5 million won and 20 million won, regardless of your blood alcohol content. In particular, if a fatal accident occurs due to drunk driving, you will be punished according to the Act on the Aggravated Punishment, etc. of Specific Crimes (Special Act) depending on the case. If you cause an accident that causes death, you are subject to imprisonment for at least 3 years or life, and if you injure someone, you are subject to imprisonment for not less than 1 year but not more than 15 years, or a fine of not less than 10 million won but not more than 30 million won. In some cases, you may even be held civilly liable for the accident. If you are caught drunk driving or cause an accident during a period of repeated offenses, you may be sentenced to imprisonment and may be detained from the investigation stage. In these cases, you should seek the help of a legal professional with extensive experience in handling drunk driving cases to minimize disadvantages and take measures to ensure that you receive the lightest punishment possible. Even if it is your first offense, heavy punishment may be imposed in the case of drunk driving as it is an act that can take the life of another person. Therefore, even in this case, you must seek the assistance of a legal professional to accurately understand the circumstances of the case and strive to lower the sentence through the optimal solution.[View full article] Beware of increased risk of drunk driving during year-end and New Year drinking parties...

According to the legal community on the 30th, Daeryun Law Firm (Limited) posted a notice of 'regular recruitment of women with (interrupted) careers'. The recruitment fields are legal secretaries and legal clerks, and the qualifications are women whose careers have been interrupted due to pregnancy, childbirth, childcare leave, etc. Areas where you can work are about 40 places across the country, including Yeouido in Seoul, Gyeonggi, Incheon, Daejeon, Chungcheong, Gyeongsang, Jeolla, and Gangwon. This recruitment announcement has spread, attracting attention in office worker communities and mom cafes. Netizens who saw this responded positively, saying things like, ‘Just looking at the use of the term ‘woman with experience’ makes me feel careful,’ and ‘I wish other companies would make announcements like this more often.’ Daeryun plans to continuously recruit women who have taken a career break until next year. The reason why the recruitment announcement targeting so-called 'career women' has received a lot of attention is because women's career breaks due to pregnancy, childbirth, and childcare are still considered a major social problem. According to the employment status of married women in the regional employment survey for the first half of this year released by Statistics Korea last month, out of 7.65 million married women aged 15 to 54, there are 1.21 million women who have taken a career break. This accounted for about 15% of people. When asked about the reason for leaving their job, the largest number of respondents (41.1%) answered 'child care', followed by marriage (24.9%) and pregnancy/childbirth (24.4%). In fact, one law firm was embroiled in controversy over unfair dismissal by firing a female lawyer who tried to return after completing maternity and childcare leave in 2021. The law firm in question even filed a lawsuit to cancel the judgment for unfair dismissal relief, claiming that it was "an old practice in the lawyer industry," but lost the case in succession in the first and second trials. An official in the legal industry said, "I was very surprised by the fact that a job advertisement for a woman with a career break was published in the law firm industry, which is evaluated as very conservative compared to other occupations," and "I think it is an unusual move." Kim Kuk-il, CEO of Daeryun Law Firm (Limited), said, "Currently, Daeryun is working to create a family-friendly culture by expanding the maternity protection system and welfare systems for work-family balance," and added, "Through this recruitment, we plan to provide experienced women with opportunities to participate in economic activities and help them demonstrate their expertise and capabilities."[View full article] “We are hiring a dumpling girl”… Positive response to law firm recruitment advertisement continues (Go here) 2026-05-10T13:54:37.140Z https://www.daeryunlaw.com/en/broadcast/4427 Clothing manufacturer claims that the former CEO “unauthorized trademark application and use” and applied for a temporary injunction to ban the use of the trademark. Busan District Court Civil Division 14: “It is difficult to exclude the former CEO’s investment and effort in creating the trademark.” A company that filed a lawsuit against the former CEO for trademark use, claiming that its trademark rights had been infringed, was ruled to lose in the preliminary injunction trial. Busan District Court 14th Civil Division (Presiding Judge Jong-su Kim, Chief Judge Seung-hyeon Kim, and Seong-min Heo) The judge) decided on November 25 to dismiss the application for a temporary injunction to prohibit trademark use and interference with trade name use filed by Clothing Manufacturer and Distributor Company A against its former CEO, Mr. B. Company A was established by Mr. B in 2015. Mr. B had been running a private business manufacturing and selling products with his wife for several years, and as the business gradually grew, he decided to establish a corporation. Afterwards, Mr. B and his wife ran the company with their family for about 8 years. The problem arose when a dispute over management rights arose among the family members. Ultimately, Mr. B was dismissed from his position as CEO in 2023. Afterwards, Mr. B registered his business using the representative product name of Company A, which he had been operating, as its business name. The dispute over management rights escalated into a trademark dispute. Both sides filed an application for a temporary injunction to ban the use of trademarks. Company A claimed in this trial, “Even though Mr. B was only the nominal CEO, he applied for and registered three trademarks in his personal name without permission from the company and then used them without permission,” adding, “Mr. B infringed on their economic interests in a way that went against fair business practices or competitive order.” However, the 14th Civil Affairs Division of the Busan District Court, which heard this case, accepted Company A’s application. It was dismissed. The court ruled that “the first trademark was registered in 2014, before the establishment of Company A,” and that “it was created through Mr. B’s investment and efforts.” It continued, “The second and third trademarks were applied for and registered after the establishment of the company, but there are no circumstances showing that Company A raised an objection, such as blocking trademark registration or demanding compensation for damages.” The court also said, “Even before Company A was officially established, Mr. B and his wife used the trademark name.” It was ruled that “it is difficult to exclude Mr. B’s investment and effort.” Attorney Bang In-tae of Daeryun Law Firm (Limited), who represented Mr. B in this lawsuit, said, “Unauthorized use of the results created through significant investments or efforts of others for one’s own business in an unfair manner may constitute an act of unfair competition,” and added, “In this case, since Mr. B was significantly involved in the related performance for all three trademarks at issue, it does not constitute an act of unfair competition in itself.” “I don’t,” he said.[View full article] Why was the decision to ‘dismiss’ the lawsuit regarding “trademark infringement” and prohibition of use?

It is said to be the first successful case among appellate trials targeting the same company, overturning the conclusion of the first trial, which ruled that all plaintiffs lost. Civil Division 18-1 of the Seoul High Court (Presiding Judge Wang Jeong-ok, High Court Judges Park Seon-joon and Jin Hyeon-min) overturned the original trial ruling in the appeal trial of the damages claim lawsuit filed by about 600 consumers, including Mr. Kim, against the state and Daejin Bed Co., Ltd., and ruled that Daejin Bed should pay 1 million won per person as alimony along with the price of the mattress. The so-called 'radon bed incident' began in May 2018 when news broke that a large amount of radon exceeding the standard was detected in the mattress of Daejin Bed Co., Ltd. Radon is a substance designated as a class 1 carcinogen by the World Health Organization (WHO) and is known to cause lung cancer. Consumers claimed that Daejin Bed applied ‘Mozanite’ to generate negative ions, and that the annual radiation exposure due to radon emitted from Mozanite exceeds safety standards. At the same time, he emphasized that Daejin Beds committed an illegal act by selling these products and suffered from physical and mental illnesses due to constant exposure to radiation through the use of the products. The Civil Division 30 of the Seoul Central District Court, which was in charge of the first trial, ruled that Daejin Bed was not responsible, ruling that Daejin Bed was not responsible, saying, “It is difficult to say that Daejin Bed was aware of the hazard as there were no laws regulating radioactive materials at the time of manufacturing and selling the mattress, and the maximum annual radiation exposure dose from the mattress is a low dose of 13 mSv (millisievert), making it difficult to recognize a causal relationship with the disease.” Consumers appealed against the first trial ruling, and the second trial ruled in favor of the consumers. Civil Division 18-1 of the Seoul High Court, which heard the appeal, said, “Around 2005, when the defendant manufactured the mattress, it was already recognized that the human body could be harmful if exposed to radiation above a certain amount,” and ruled, “Even if there were no specific legal standards at the time the mattress was manufactured and sold, the use of radioactive substances harmful to the human body is not permitted in principle.” The appellate court continued, “The plaintiffs were exposed to radiation exposure that exceeded the safety standards set by the Daily Radiation Act against their will in the bedroom, which should be the most comfortable and safe, without receiving any warning about the possibility of exposure to radiation while using the mattress in this case,” and ruled, “Defendant Daejin Bed Co., Ltd. is obligated to pay the plaintiff the price of the mattress, 1 million won each in alimony, and delay damages.” Attorney Hwang Se-jeong of Daeryun Law Firm (Limited), who represented consumers in this lawsuit, said, “Unlike the original trial, it is very meaningful that the bed company was also acknowledged as responsible,” and added, “As the appellate court said it would reach a conclusion on the remaining lawsuits through consultation, we expect a good result.” Attorney Hwang Se-jeong also added, "Following this ruling, other consumers seeking additional relief for damages are expected to be able to receive sufficient compensation. Based on Daeryun's capabilities specialized in class action lawsuits, we will continue to do our best to protect consumers' rights in the future."[View full article] Lawleader - Court ‘recognizes company liability for radon bed incident’...

After passing the 28th bar exam in 1986, Attorney Cho was appointed as a prosecutor at the Northern Branch of the Seoul District Prosecutors' Office in 1992. Since then, he has gained extensive experience by taking charge of cases in various fields, including medicine, intellectual property rights, and traffic crimes, at Incheon District Prosecutors' Office, Busan District Prosecutors' Eastern District Office, and Suwon District Prosecutors' Pyeongtaek Branch. In 2003, he was dispatched to the Constitutional Court as a constitutional researcher, and in 2006, he served as head of the Public Security Division 1 of the Supreme Prosecutors' Office and was in charge of investigating election and anti-communist cases. Attorney Cho, who became a lawyer in 2011 after working as a prosecutor for more than 20 years, solidified his position in the legal field by obtaining not guilty verdicts in cases such as the bribery case of the director of a national research institute and the defamation case of a high-ranking public official. In particular, Attorney Cho has expertise in the IT field. He earned a master's degree in information security and a doctorate in IT policy management from Soongsil University, and gained practical experience by serving on the IT and personal information protection legal advisory group of the Korean Bar Association in 2014.

On the 19th of last month, the 12th Criminal Division of the Ulsan District Court (Presiding Judge Kim Jong-hyuk) sentenced Mr. A (40), who was accused of rape, to 1 year and 6 months in prison and placed him in court custody. He was also ordered to complete a 40-hour sexual violence treatment program. Mr. A is accused of sexually assaulting the victim, Mr. B (35), at his residence in October last year. The two had already broken up that same month, but Mr. A lured Mr. B to his house, saying, “I have something to talk about.” At the time of the incident, Mr. B expressed his refusal several times, but Mr. A ignored this and committed violence. At the trial, Mr. A pleaded not guilty. As evidence to support this, they cited the fact that no tangible force was used to make resistance impossible and that sexual intercourse occurred with the victim's consent. The victim's attitude before and after the crime was also raised as an issue. It is said that the victim did not actively express his refusal at the time and communicated with him even after the incident occurred. The court did not accept Mr. A's claim. The court ruled, "The victim is giving specific and consistent statements regarding the entire crime in this case, including the circumstances in which this incident occurred, the words and actions of the defendant at the time of the crime, and the way the victim resisted the defendant. If the male defendant uses physical force, it is not easy for the female victim to overcome that force." He also said, "It is against the rules of logic and experience based on justice and equity to determine the reaction that a normal sexual assault victim should show based on incorrect notions and to deny the reasonableness of the victim's statement because he acted contrary to this." Attorney Song Min-ye of Daeryun Law Firm (Limited), who is the legal representative of victim B, said, "The problem that we always face when representing sexual crime victims is the demand for 'victim-ness'. The perpetrator digs into this. “We deny the credibility of the victim’s statement,” he said. “In this case, the defendant denied the charges, saying that the victim in this case did not show what a victim would naturally do, and as a result of proving the damage throughout the complaint process, the defendant could have been sentenced to prison.”[View full article] Money S - Claims, “It’s not sexual assault because I kept getting contacted”… Court sentences man who raped his ex-lover to prison (link) Segye Ilbo - Man accused of sexually assaulting ex-girlfriend, claims ‘not guilty’, saying they kept in touch with him afterward (link) Edaily - “We kept in touch even after the sexual assault”… Is it ‘not guilty’? (Shortcut) 2026-05-13T04:10:54.461Z https://www.daeryunlaw.com/en/broadcast/4411 Last October, the Supreme Court made headlines by issuing a final not guilty verdict in a case of unauthorized viewing of personal information by a public official. The circumstances of the incident are as follows. Mr. A, a civil servant working at an administrative welfare center in Busan, viewed personal information about his ex-lover B and his family 52 times through the social security information system in 2022. The system was created for the purpose of managing welfare allowance recipients, but during this process, Mr. A did not receive consent from those who were viewing the information, including Mr. B. The prosecution determined that Mr. A violated the Personal Information Protection Act. According to Article 59, Paragraph 1 of the Personal Information Protection Act, a person who processes or has processed personal information cannot acquire personal information or obtain consent for processing through ‘false or other illegal means or methods.’ Article 27, Paragraph 2 of the same Act also provides for punishment of those who violate Article 59, Paragraph 1 and those who have received personal information for commercial or fraudulent purposes while knowing the circumstances. However, the court's judgment was different. The first trial court found Mr. A not guilty. The court found that Mr. A’s actions amounted to simple ‘abuse of authority.’ At the time, the only process required to view personal information in the system was to enter one's ID and password, but it was discovered that Mr. A worked while logging in through a specific terminal assigned to him. The court emphasized, "In order to be found guilty, it is necessary to go beyond simply abusing the given authority and use 'unfair means and methods.'" The prosecutor appealed, but Mr. A was found not guilty in the second trial. The appellate court stated the reason for dismissing the appeal, saying, “There was no misconception of facts in the original judgment.” The result was the same in the subsequent appeal trial. The Supreme Court also ruled that Mr. A's actions could only be grounds for disciplinary action in accordance with internal rules and that criminal punishment was not possible. In the case of this not guilty verdict, it can be said to be the result of the reality that there is no legal basis for prohibiting public officials from unauthorized viewing and acquisition of personal information and no corresponding punishment regulations. This is because, according to the legal principle of criminal punishment, if there is no punishment provision specified in the law, the court cannot punish the act in question. Therefore, in order to impose punishment for related acts, it is necessary for the National Assembly to prepare punishment regulations through legislative procedures. However, revision of the relevant law is still far away. Therefore, in order to fill the legal gap related to personal information protection, it appears that it is urgent to come up with self-help measures at the administrative level. There is a need to prevent unauthorized viewing of personal information by taking measures such as strengthening security through technical means. In addition, it can be said that strict management is required through strengthening disciplinary action and authority management for public officials viewing inappropriate information.[View full article] Officials found not guilty in Supreme Court for unauthorized access to personal information...

On the 22nd of last month, the 1st Criminal Division of the Chuncheon District Court dismissed the appeal of the prosecutor against Mr. He was indicted on charges of causing the death of worker B, in his 60s, by sending him to work without taking safety measures at a construction site in Pyeongchang-gun. At the time, B fell 10 meters while preparing for ceiling painting work. He was immediately taken to a nearby hospital, but eventually died during treatment. The prosecution charged Mr. A, the representative of a subcontractor, with manslaughter due to occupational negligence. Under current law, workers must wear protective gear when working on ladders at construction sites and work in teams of two. It is said that unreasonable work was ordered without complying with this. Mr. A, who admitted all of the charges during the trial, paid a criminal deposit for the victim's family. The first trial court ruled that the death occurred due to the defendant's neglect of his duties as a safety manager. However, it accepted that Mr. A was a first-time offender who had never been criminally punished and that he made efforts to recover from the damage, and sentenced him to probation. Mr. A's legal representative, attorney Gil Se-cheol of Daeryun Law Firm (Limited), said “In this case, the accident occurred due to non-implementation of safety measures, and work negligence could not be avoided,” he explained. He continued, “Although a suspended sentence was imposed in the first trial, it was a situation where heavy punishment could have been received due to the prosecution’s appeal.” He added, “We were able to uphold the original judgment by citing additional criminal deposits to the bereaved families.” Attorney Gil said, “The expansion of the Serious Accident Punishment Act has strengthened the responsibility of employers. This incident occurred before the Serious Accident Act was applied, but in the future, He added, “The application of the law cannot be avoided when it comes to workplace accidents,” adding, “If a death occurs, the business owner can be imprisoned for more than a year or fined less than 1 billion won, so caution is needed.”[View full article] Worker dies at construction site...

Yeo Kyeong-eun, chief judge of the Jeju District Court's 1st Criminal Division, announced on the 14th that she had dismissed the indictment against Mr. A (59), who was indicted on charges of assault on an ascendant. Mr. A was arrested in Jeju City in May last year. He is accused of committing violence during an argument with his father, Mr. B (82), at a residence located in Ildo-dong. At that time, Mr. A is known to have committed this crime after witnessing Mr. B, who had entered the room to watch TV, being violent towards his mother. In particular, it was confirmed that Mr. B regularly committed domestic violence against his wife. Mr. B, who was assaulted, did not suffer any serious injuries. However, Mr. A suffered injuries that required four weeks of treatment due to the weapon that Mr. B used for defense. At the trial, Mr. A's legal representative argued that Mr. B did not hesitate to assault and verbally abuse his wife, and that Mr. A, who had endured this for decades, could no longer tolerate it and accidentally committed the crime. In addition, this was the first time that Mr. However, it was argued that the father-son relationship had reached an amicable agreement and that Mr. B had expressed his intention that he did not want Mr. A to be punished. When Mr. B submitted an agreement stating that he did not want his son to be punished, the court dismissed the prosecution's indictment. Attorney Ko Seung-seok of Daeryun Law Firm (Limited), who represented Mr. A, said, “In the case of family assault cases, the issues are often complex and sensitive. This case was the same, but the indictment was ultimately dismissed using various methods. “It could have been concluded with a ruling,” he said. “In the case of assault on a relative, the level of punishment is higher than that of general assault, and it is difficult to avoid aggravated punishment due to possession of a weapon, so if related charges are applied, expert help must be sought.”[View full article] Indictment dismissed against son who assaulted father in his 80s for the sake of his mother who suffered from domestic violence (Click here) 2026-05-08T16:04:01.749Z https://www.daeryunlaw.com/en/broadcast/4399 The perception that ‘a statement of remorse is a reduction in punishment’ is widespread. Simple mistakes are dismissed, bad luck gets caught, etc. There are many related posts in online communities. There are many views that take crimes lightly. The legal profession points out that “an attitude of remorse is necessary.” “I realized that drunk driving can destroy my life and the lives of others.” Mr. A, who had been caught for drunk driving in the past, said this in his thoughts on participating in a pilot campaign for the installation of a “drinking driving prevention device” by the Road Traffic Authority and OB Beer. The drunk driving prevention device measures blood alcohol concentration through exhaled breath and prevents the engine from starting when it detects that it is above the standard level. According to the revision of the Road Traffic Act last October, if a person whose license was revoked for drunk driving more than twice within 5 years wants to get behind the wheel again, he or she must attach a preventive device to the car for a period equal to the period of disqualification (2 to 5 years). Considering the period of disqualification after the enforcement of the law, it is expected that actual cases of attachment will come out around October 2026. In the testimonials of campaign participants, they said that they should feel ashamed of themselves and that they would never drink and drive again. Although it was the majority, in online communities, etc., reactions such as dismissing drunk driving as a simple mistake or being caught because of bad luck were noticeable. ◆ In response to an inquiry about ‘ghostwriting’ a reflection statement, ‘2nd and 3rd strike’. Mr. B said, ‘I have never written a reflection before,’ and posted an inquiry about ghostwriting on a community sharing concerns about drunk drivers. When asked how the level of punishment could be lowered even a little, there were comments criticizing the writer, saying, “It is very important to write your own reflection,” but there were also responses that included rough examples and said, “If writing is difficult, I will help you.” The view that takes drunk driving lightly is also revealed in expressions such as “second strike,” which means a repeat offender, or “three strikes,” which means being caught three times. It is a similar concept to ‘three strikes out’ in baseball and is often used in online communities. Another person caught for drunk driving who introduced himself as ‘second strike’ was worried about his safety, fearing that his prison sentence would be reduced. A lawyer at a law firm pointed out, “The expressions ‘second strike’ and ‘third strike’ are not official legal terms,” and “I think people’s awareness of drunk driving is decreasing because it means repeating the same crime two or three times.” He went on to raise concerns, saying, “Given that perspectives on social issues change depending on the term, the atmosphere that takes drunk driving lightly may increase.” Attorney Lee also mentioned that there are cases in which people show little sign of remorse during investigations or trials, but then quickly write a statement of remorse just before sentencing. This means that the fear of being sentenced to prison is so great that they are trying to lower the punishment by hastily submitting a statement of remorse to the court. He emphasized that the standard for ‘serious remorse’ that the Supreme Court Sentencing Committee identifies as a mitigating factor for ‘drinking and driving without a license’ is also unclear. ◆Recognition that ‘submission of a statement of reflection = reduction in penalty’? It is said that the number of calls to front-line law firms inquiring about writing a statement of reflection on drunk driving is beyond imagination. An official from C Law Firm told the Segye Ilbo, “We receive 1,000 to 2,000 inquiries to our law firm every month. This means that there are many cases of drunk driving being caught.” They say that since this is only from one place, law firms across the country will receive more calls. Based on his personal opinion, this official said, “There seems to be a formula among drunk drivers that submission of a statement of reflection results in a reduced punishment,” and “they should be punished more severely.” According to data received from the National Police Agency in September by Han Byeong-do, a member of the National Assembly’s Public Administration and Safety Committee, a member of the Democratic Party of Korea, traffic accidents caused by ‘people with a history of drinking’ over the five years from 2019 to last year accounted for about 43% of the total 75,950 drunk driving traffic accidents during the same period. There are 32,877 cases. If divided by number of times, there are 18,916 cases for one time, 8,431 cases for two times, and 5,530 cases for three or more times, showing that drunk driving is a habitual crime. The legal community pointed out that a statement of remorse should not be viewed as a simple means of reducing punishment, and that an attitude of sincere regret for drunk driving is necessary.

We have built solid expertise by providing numerous advisory services across the entire corporate spectrum, from fair trade to mergers and acquisitions (M&A), patents, and labor.

Based on this practical experience, he is also actively providing legal advice related to startup investment.Divided the company with Attorney Eun Ji., startup, Hear advice related to the board of directors, etc.. The following is a Q&A with Attorney Ji.. -Please introduce your current work at Daeryun Law Firm.. △Corporate legal advice from the corporate legal team, Contract review, M&A, Responsible for legal advice on overall corporate matters, including international transactions.. Helps domestic and foreign companies prevent legal risks that may arise during business operations.. We strive to propose optimal legal solutions in important decision-making processes.. -International transactions M&A What do you think is the most important part of advice?? △International transactions M&A There is one common and important point in advisory.. The difference in position between the parties must be clearly understood.. As with all contracts, Especially international transactions M&Ais a diverse cultural, legal, Parties with commercial backgrounds are involved. The negotiation process is not simple. Must have a deep understanding of the key interests and concerns of each party. I think the key is to adjust to reflect the differences.. Lawyers must go beyond simply resolving legal issues and seek mutual benefit between the parties.. To this end, we present strategies to minimize legal risks and achieve business goals.. Clearly establish the structure and terms of the contract, It is also important to systematically prepare provisions to prevent disputes that may arise in the future.. At this time, a balanced approach must be taken to ensure both business performance and legal stability.. Reduce misunderstandings and conflicts in the contract implementation process, Legal support measures must be provided to ensure that the cooperative relationship between both parties can be maintained.. -Among the major advisory cases, is there anything particularly worth introducing?? △Demerger(De-Merger) There was general advice regarding. A company wanted to separate its core business into an independent corporation and form a new company.. However, the parent company was already experiencing financial difficulties.. This reduces legal risks and, There were complex issues regarding the design of the share structure.. There were also sharp internal conflicts and disagreements regarding the distribution of management rights and authority between key executives and employees of the existing company and the person appointed as the representative of the new company.. In this process, the long-term goals of strengthening the sustainability and market competitiveness of both companies after Demerger had to be taken into consideration.. In particular, the share structure, Voting distribution, A negotiation strategy was needed to balance various legal and commercial issues, including setting mutual transaction terms..Therefore, we focused on exploring various transaction structures to ensure smooth negotiations while minimizing legal risks.. Asset transfer following business division separation, personnel movement, We designed the contract structure and operation plan by considering both legal stability and business flexibility on major issues such as trademark and intellectual property rights management.. We have established a legal and commercial foundation for mutual cooperation and independent management between the parent company and the new company., We provided support to ensure long-term business growth and the sustainability of the company.. This consultation went beyond a simple contract review to resolve complex conflicts between stakeholders.. It was the most impressive case in that it required legal creativity and negotiation skills in the process of establishing a corporate restructuring strategy.. -I also have experience in founding a startup. What is it about?? △This was a case where an existing company carried out a new business incubation project in the form of supporting internal executives and employees to start a startup.. To promote internal innovation and new business development, the company began fostering independent corporations based on business ideas suggested by executives and employees, providing both investment and operational support.. The main focus here was to strike a balance between the profits of the parent company and the growth potential of the new startup.. In terms of investment structure, we designed a cooperation model that can maximize the parent company's investment return and strategic synergy while guaranteeing the startup's autonomy through equity ratio and distribution of management rights..intellectual property rights(IP) Management was also a key issue.. We clearly distinguish between cases where core technology and trademark rights belong to the parent company and cases where a startup owns its own developed technology., License agreements and joint development provisions were systematically prepared to simultaneously prevent technology leaks and ensure flexibility in commercial use.. I was able to develop practical insight through the realization of a win-win model between companies and startups.. Currently, we are actively utilizing this experience as a corporate legal advisor to propose optimal legal solutions in cooperation projects between startups and companies.. -How is legal advice provided for startup investment support?? If there is anything to pay special attention to? △Legal advice on startup investment support: drafting and reviewing investment contracts, Equity structure design, Includes various fields such as legal risk inspection, etc.. Preferred stock conditions, Anti-dilution clause, Repayment priority, The key is to systematically design investor protection provisions, such as liquidation priority, and management rights defense strategies.. Ownership of core technologies and ideas through intellectual property protection, It is also essential to clearly establish usage rights..However, if a startup grants excessive rights to investors or has an overly restrictive contract structure, it may hinder the ability to attract future investment or long-term growth.. For example, anti-dilution provisions may be too favorable to investors., If the redemption priority and management rights conditions limit the management autonomy of the startup, attract additional investors or go public.(IPO) Expansion strategies may become difficult.. Therefore, negotiations must be conducted considering the balance between investor protection and startup growth potential.. Establish clear key terms and conditions from the initial stage of the contract, Designing a sustainable investment structure with flexible contractual provisions and conflict resolution mechanisms is the key to successful legal advice.. -What are the characteristics of corporate board-related advice?? △The biggest characteristic is that it focuses on securing procedural legitimacy in the decision-making process to clearly establish the authority and responsibility of directors.. Since the Board of Directors is the highest decision-making body that determines important management matters for the company, each director's duty of loyalty and fiduciary duty must be strictly observed.. In particular, the transparency of the decision-making process and the legality of minutes preparation must be checked in advance to ensure the legitimacy and legal stability of the board of directors' decision-making.. This ensures that the resolution of the board of directors is legally valid., The main advisory task is to provide support to prevent overturns in future legal disputes..Recently ESG(Environment, Society, Governance) As the importance of management is highlighted, corporate sustainability and social responsibility are becoming key agendas for the board of directors.. Board of Directors Management Regulations in Companies, Establishment of sustainable management strategy, ESG Legal advice is also essential to support regulatory compliance and reporting obligations related to governance, including management of disclosure obligations.. -If you have any future goals or plans, please tell us.. △Personally, I am very interested in the virtual asset market.. Virtual assets are not limited to financial markets, but also games, etc. IT market, RWA(Real World Assets) It is a dynamic and growth-potential field that is closely connected to the real asset market.. In addition, as cross-border transactions and regulatory issues occur frequently, a deep understanding of the global legal and regulatory environment is required.. In the future, we plan to systematically strengthen our expertise in the virtual asset market and cross-border trading fields.. Virtual asset financial regulations, Digital Asset Management, international trade law, I want to become a cross-border legal expert who provides customized legal solutions to companies and investors by improving legal and technical expertise, such as designing blockchain-based contract structures..

The 2nd Criminal Division of the Busan High Court dismissed the prosecutor's appeal and declared him not guilty as in the first trial during the appellate hearing on the 20th of last month against Mr. A, in his 30s, who was accused of rape and attempted rape. Mr. A tried to rape Mr. He was once again put on trial on charges of rape. Mr. A denied the charges. It is said that the skinship was consensual with the victim, and there was no attempt to rape or actual rape. The first trial court previously found Mr. A not guilty in May. The main purpose was that there were inconsistencies in the victim's statement, which was the only evidence. The court pointed out, "The victim has recanted her statement about the situation at the time, but this is a change of the initial statement made close to the date of the incident to fit the facts of the indictment, so it is difficult to believe it as it is." Looking at the content of Mr. B's remarks to acquaintances at the time, such as "I think I climbed on Mr. A's body and made physical contact," it is questionable whether an actual act of rape occurred. He added. The prosecution appealed, claiming a misconception of facts, but the same conclusion was reached in the second trial. The appellate court dismissed the prosecutor's appeal, saying, "The original trial court's decision to acquit each indictment was justified and acceptable." The appellate court said, "Male DNA was not found in the pants and underwear the victim was wearing at the time. This alone does not allow us to conclude that a sexual relationship did not exist. However, when combined with the various circumstances seen earlier, the above results can also be seen as circumstances that cast doubt on the credibility of the victim's statement." Attorney Jang Ho-cheol of Daeryun Law Firm, who represented Mr. A, said “If the defendant consistently denies the charges in a situation where the victim’s statement is the only direct evidence, the victim’s statement must have high probative power so that there is no room to doubt its truthfulness and accuracy,” said Attorney Jang. “In this case, the victim frequently changed her statement, and people around her also gave testimony that contradicted the victim’s claim.” He added, “It appears that the court also reflected this in deciding not guilty.”[View full article] Money S - Accused of raping a woman he met at a bar...

A case was revealed in which an elementary school teacher in his 40s who molested a fellow teacher while drunk received a deferred sentence and was able to return to teaching. Gwangju District Court Chief Judge Lee Gwang-heon of the 4th criminal division fined A 5 million won on charges of forced molestation. Sentencing was postponed. Deferred sentencing is a type of guilty verdict that postpones sentencing for a certain period of time and exempts punishment after that period. Mr. A was accused of forcibly molesting the victim, Mr. B, while drinking with fellow teachers at a restaurant in Seo-gu, Gwangju in October 2023. During the police investigation, Mr. B claimed that Mr. A, who was sitting next to him, made inappropriate physical contact, including touching his body. At the time, Mr. A was believed to be intoxicated. It was confirmed. Mr. A's lawyer said at the trial, "Mr. A, who is a teacher, could lose his long-time job if he is punished for this incident," and added, "After the incident, Mr. A has been working hard to prevent repeat offenses. In particular, please take into consideration that he sincerely apologized to the victim and received forgiveness." The court also accepted this and decided to postpone the fine. Chief Judge Gwang-heon Lee said, "The defendant deeply regrets his mistakes. He explained the reason for the decision by saying, “We took into account the fact that he is committed not to reoffend and the fact that he reached an amicable agreement with the victim and that the victim did not want to punish the defendant,” and the decision to suspend sentencing allowed Mr. A to maintain his status as a teacher. Attorney Shim Ga-hyun of Daeryun Law Firm (Limited), who represented Mr. A in this case, said, “The National Public Officials Act stipulates that if an educational civil servant is sentenced to a fine of 1 million won or more for a sex crime, he or she will be retired.” “The suspended sentence was given because it was accepted that the crime was committed accidentally due to excessive drinking, that the degree of the assault was relatively mild, and that the victim did not want to be punished,” he explained.[View full article] Elementary school teacher accused of forcibly molesting a colleague...maintains his/her position as a teacher through deferred sentencing (Shortcut) 2026-05-13T12:54:57.317Z https://www.daeryunlaw.com/en/broadcast/4373 Competitive proceedings against police treason and prosecution abuse of power, Kim Yong-hyeon urgently arrested, Yoon Seok-yeol booked…“An unprecedented day, In-depth research required” This is an unprecedented attempt by armed soldiers to take over the National Assembly and the National Election Commission.

A police official said "If the prosecution investigates a crime of rebellion that is not within the scope of investigation, the indictment may be dismissed."He also expressed his awareness of keeping the prosecution in check..This leads to concerns that confusion in the investigation may repeat itself.. In a situation where attempts by suspects to destroy evidence are expected, excessive confusion is bound to be bad news..

According to the legal community on the 18th, the Gwangju District Prosecutors' Office decided not to indict Mr. A, a man in his 20s who was accused of violating the military service law on the 11th of last month. Mr. A was designated as a social worker through a military service examination in 2019, but in the process, he intentionally lost weight by visiting a sauna and sweating. This is a charge. In 2019, when Mr. A's examination was conducted, if his BMI index was less than 17, he was classified as physical class 4 and could serve as a social worker. In fact, at the time of the first examination, Mr. A's BMI index was measured at 16.7 and he was judged as grade 4, but it was put on hold as a subject for unannounced measurement. In the test conducted a few months later, his BMI was found to be 16.9, and Mr. A was finally judged to be in physical grade 4. Related to this An acquaintance of Mr. A came under investigation with suspicions of military service evasion, but Mr. A completely denied the allegations. He claimed that he had a naturally thin constitution and had been underweight since high school. The prosecution also ruled that Mr. A was not guilty. The prosecution said, "Even though he knew that he had been selected as a subject for an unannounced measurement during the military service examination, his BMI index actually increased during the subsequent unannounced measurement," adding, "If the suspect had intended to lose weight intentionally, he would have lost weight compared to the first test." Kim Seong-ik, a lawyer at Daeryun Law Firm who represented Mr. A, said, "A person's weight can fluctuate by about 1 to 2 kg per year depending on his or her lifestyle pattern. Mr. A temporarily exceeded the BMI index of 17 when he was in high school, but the value decreased again due to his irregular lifestyle pattern." He added, "It is difficult to say that Mr. A, who is underweight, went to the sauna and sweated out, causing a significant change in his weight. He added, “Based on experience, it is difficult to understand that he attempted to evade military service by relying solely on weight loss in the sauna.” He added, “It appears that the investigative agency also took this situation into consideration and decided not to charge him.”[View full article] “Did you intentionally lose weight to avoid military service?” People in their 20s who were acquitted (link) 2026-05-13T14:38:19.746Z https://www.daeryunlaw.com/en/broadcast/4370 While the drug problem has recently been discussed as a social issue, the number of drug offenders caught by the police has been found to be increasing. According to data released by the National Police Agency, 184 drug offenders were arrested from September to October last year, which is an increase of approximately 95.7% compared to the 94 people arrested during the same period last year. The types of drugs used for administration are also expanding. In the past, it was limited to limited types such as marijuana and philopon, but these days, the scope has expanded to include cocaine, ecstasy, and yaba. In addition, cases of misuse of medical drugs such as propofol are increasing, especially in hospitals and clinics, raising controversy. Recently, drug distribution channels are becoming more diverse, which is becoming a problem. Unlike before, many cases of buying and selling drugs through SNS such as Telegram have been discovered. In addition, there are situations where people take drugs without their knowledge, and criminal methods are becoming more sophisticated. Last year, there was a case in an academy in Seoul where a member of a criminal organization encouraged test takers to take drinks mixed with drugs, claiming that it was a "drug that helps them study better." Drug use can cause problems in a person's daily life and harm their health. In addition, the sentences are not light because they often lead to social problems. Those who take ketamine or ecstasy, which are known to be distributed mainly in entertainment districts such as clubs and entertainment bars, are sentenced to up to 10 years in prison or a fine of 100 million won. Even in the case of marijuana, which is widely known, a person is subject to imprisonment for up to 5 years or a fine of up to 50 million won. In addition, simple possession of drugs is subject to punishment. Even if the medication is not administered, a prison sentence may be imposed because it can lead to other criminal acts such as taking or selling. If you are suspected of being a transporter involved in drug distribution, you may be subject to imprisonment for up to 10 years or a fine of up to 10 million won. The judiciary plans to take strict action against these drug crimes. The Supreme Court Sentencing Committee has been implementing strengthened sentencing standards for drug crimes since last July. The changed standards include increasing the level of punishment for drug crimes such as large-scale drug distribution and simple possession of marijuana. In particular, as the youth drug problem has emerged, the standard range for selling and receiving drugs to minors has been expanded to a maximum of life imprisonment. In fact, court punishment is also becoming increasingly severe. According to data from the Supreme Prosecutors' Office, the proportion of drug offenders tried last year who were sentenced to 10 years or more in the first trial has nearly tripled in the past two years. Therefore, if you are involved in a drug crime, you must establish a strategy for each procedure from the police investigation stage to the court. If an individual solves the problem alone, legal factors may be misinterpreted and lead to unexpected results. Therefore, it is essential to respond with the assistance of an expert, such as a lawyer with extensive experience in the field. If you took the drug without knowing it was a drug, or if you were forced to take the drug by someone else, you must actively explain the circumstances of the drug use. It should be emphasized that the drug was taken without knowing at the time that it was a drug, and the argument should be focused on the fact that no additional drug was administered after that. Even in this case, it is important to develop a response plan with the help of an expert such as a lawyer.[View full article] Even first-time drug offenders can be arrested and investigated... Required response by procedure (link) 2026-05-13T13:59:55.370Z https://www.daeryunlaw.com/en/broadcast/4367 Mr. A completes land ownership transfer registration process after 16 years... 1st and 2nd trial courts impose fines in the hundreds of millions of won, “The reason for the delay in registration is recognized...there is no legal reason for the disposition” Cancellation of fines The court ruled that fines cannot be imposed if there is a justifiable reason even if land ownership transfer registration procedures were not performed for a long period of time. On the 13th of last month, the Seoul High Court's Administrative Division 6-1 (Chief Judges Hwang Ui-dong, Wi Kwang-ha, and Baek Seung-yeop) filed a lawsuit against the mayor of Jongno-gu, Seoul, filed by Mr. A in his 40s. In the appeal trial to cancel the imposition of fines, the lower court upheld the ruling in favor of the plaintiff. In February 2006, Mr. A purchased a piece of land in Jongno-gu, Seoul for 1.2 billion won from his younger brother and started operating a junk shop in March of the same year. Afterwards, Mr. A completed the ownership transfer registration process in 2022, about 16 years later. Jongno-gu Office, the local government in charge, gave Mr. A 380 million won. A fine was imposed. This is because Mr. A is a long-term unregistered person. According to the Real Name Real Estate Act, if an application for ownership transfer registration is not made until the grace period for real name conversion has elapsed, a fine in the range of 30/100 of the real estate value is imposed. Mr. A appealed the imposition of the fine and filed an administrative lawsuit. Mr. A argued, “As the payment of the sale price for the land in question was delayed, a related lawsuit was filed and the registration process had to be delayed.” He also emphasized, “Even though there were legitimate reasons for not applying for registration, the local government imposed a fine, which clearly shows that there was a flaw in the disposition.” The first trial court sentenced the imposition of the fine to be canceled. The court ruled, “Even if the unpaid amount is only about 7% of the total sale price, it is difficult to view this as completion of payment of the sale price,” and “Accordingly, this case cannot be considered to have legitimate grounds for disposition.” Jongno-gu Office immediately filed an appeal, but the second trial court also ruled in Mr. A’s favor. The Seoul High Court stated the reason for dismissing the appeal, saying, “In an appeal lawsuit, the burden of proving the legality of the disposition lies, in principle, with the disposition office, which asserts the legality of the disposition. The defendant’s reasons for appeal are not much different from the argument in the first trial, and the cancellation of the fine is recognized as justified.” Attorney Lee Jun-hee of Daeryun Law Firm (Limited), the legal representative of Mr. A, said, “Even at the time of the disposition of this case, the settlement of the sale price surrounding the land in question was not completed. The defendant “Although they were aware of the facts, they denied it and tried to maintain the disposition,” he said. “Therefore, the disposition in this case should have been canceled because the defect was so serious.” He added, “It cannot be considered reasonable to claim grounds for disposition based on separate facts that are not legally recognized as having the same basic facts.”[View full article] ‘Violation of Real Estate Act’, fine of 300 million won… What's the ending?

NewJeans opened a new SNS channel called 'jeanzforfree' on the 14th and posted an image of its symbolic animal, a rabbit, wearing a cone hat to convey a happy birthday message to former CEO Min Hee-jin. Previously, they performed without directly mentioning the team name at the Japanese mixed group Yoasobi's concert in Korea, and some analyzed that this was a measure to avoid unnecessary legal disputes with their agency Adore. However, with the opening of the 'Jeans for Free' channel on this day, some speculated that New Jeans may be trying to make a new start with the name 'New Jeans', changing only one letter from the team name. There is also a view that rather than dragging out the trademark dispute, an easier and quicker solution was chosen to change the name to 'New Jeans'. In relation to this, New Jeans has not officially announced the name change to 'New Jeans'. So, if they choose to change their name to ‘New Jeans’, will it actually have legal effect? To conclude, the common opinion of legal experts is that it is impossible to operate under ‘New Jeans’ under trademark law. Attorney Kim Tae-hwan, an intellectual property expert at Daeryun Law Firm, told YTN, "First of all, the trademark rights related to New Jeans belong to Adore Co., Ltd. In addition to the English mark, Adore has not applied for trademark rights for the Korean mark 'New Jeans', but since the identity and similarity of the name are important judgment criteria, 'New Jeans' is also likely to be judged as an infringement." Attorney Kim continued, "In general, if New Jeans is a 'third party' that is not related to Adore." “If Adore claims infringement of trademark rights, there is a high possibility that the infringement will be recognized. Additional confirmation is needed to determine whether New Genes used this name without any hesitation or decided to use it with hidden intentions,” he explained. He also paid attention to the lawsuit filed by Adore to confirm the validity of the exclusive contract. Attorney Kim predicted, "If Adore wins, New Jeans will become Adore's affiliated singers, so the issue is whether they can be considered a 'third party' in the trademark infringement claim. Conversely, if the exclusive contract is confirmed invalid, New Jeans members will appeal that their existence was a measure taken to prevent them from being unable to perform for a long time due to a long legal battle." In particular, Attorney Kim said, "If New Jeans loses the above confirmation lawsuit, if it is confirmed that they are affiliated with Adore, then they can be considered as singers under Adore." “If they continue their activities despite the ruling, they will have to pay a huge penalty for violating their contract as singers,” he said. “In addition, Adore can also request a ban on activities under the exclusive contract, so it seems that he will not be able to continue his activities as a singer based on legal judgment.” As such, New Genes has been legally involved in the actions of notifying the termination of the exclusive contract through an emergency press conference, activities after the conference, and rumors of a change in the team name due to the opening of this new SNS channel.

The Seosan branch office is located in Eumnae-dong, the center of Seosan, and has excellent accessibility. In addition, major public institutions such as city hall and police stations are located nearby, making it easy to connect with administrative work. Seosan is an area of ​​great interest in legal disputes related to agriculture, fisheries, and the environment, as it is rich in tidal flat resources and has many special products such as garlic and potatoes. Daeryun announced that it will provide necessary legal support and professional advice on the environment to farmers and fisheries, reflecting these regional characteristics. In addition, as Seosan is home to several industrial complexes, including Techno Valley, there is a high legal demand for industrial accidents and corporate-related lawsuits. Daeryun plans to provide efficient legal services to companies and workers in the Seosan region based on its deep expertise in resolving labor and corporate-related disputes. Specifically, we plan to actively assist in providing labor-management contract advice, resolving labor and personnel-related disputes, legal advice on business operations, and responding to various regulations. In addition, we plan to spare no effort in providing legal assistance to local residents in general criminal cases, divorce, real estate, and civil cases. “Seosan is a region where nature and industry are in harmony, and the fields of legal needs are also very diverse,” said Daeryun Kim Kuk-il, CEO of the business. “Through the opening of this Seosan office, we will provide more prompt and professional legal services to Seosan residents and companies.” He added, “Daeryun will continue to work harder to eliminate legal blind spots by ensuring that high-quality legal services are provided easily and conveniently at the Seoul headquarters level anywhere in the country.”[View full article] Daeryun Law Firm (Limited) opens its 42nd branch office in Seosan, South Chungcheong Province (Go here) 2026-05-09T03:36:08.576Z https://www.daeryunlaw.com/en/broadcast/4356 A picket with defamation content in a public place was sued... The police admitted the charge and forwarded it to the prosecution. The prosecutor's office decided not to indict, saying, "There is no personal information on the picket... It is difficult to identify the accuser." Office workers who were accused of defamation after going on a picket protest against the decision on workplace harassment were acquitted by the prosecution. On the 8th of last month, the Cheongju District Prosecutors' Office dismissed the charges against three office workers, including Mr. A, who were forwarded on charges of defamation. It was confirmed that the prosecution was not indicted. They were accused of defaming fellow employee B by holding a picket protest in a public place inside and outside the company in April 2023. At the time, Mr. B was pointed out by these people as a perpetrator of workplace harassment. Mr. B sued the three people for defamation. The reason was that the picket used in the protest contained phrases that could damage their reputation. They denied the charge, saying that the picket did not contain information indicating a specific person. At the same time, the company claimed that at the time, an investigation into another case with similar content was in progress, and that the text on the picket alone did not indicate that the target of the protest was Mr. B. However, the police believed that the charge of defamation was recognized. Considering that related rumors had already spread around the company, the reason was that it was not difficult to determine that the person responsible for the picket text was Mr. B. However, the prosecution's judgment was different. The prosecution decided not to indict, saying, “There are no expressions in the contents of the picket that could reveal the personal information of the complainant or the suspect, or the department they work in,” and “It is difficult for a third party to know that the person in the picket was the complainant just because there were rumors circulating.” Attorney Kim In-won of Daeryun Law Firm (Limited), who defended the suspect, said, “For a charge of defamation to be established, specific facts must be disclosed that are enough to lower social evaluation,” adding, “This case He explained, “It is impossible to establish a charge of defamation because the content of the picket in this case was not a specific fact, but rather an emotional expression complaining about being a victim of bullying in the workplace.”[View full article] Accused of defamation after protesting workplace bullying... not indicted due to ‘lack of specificity’ (link) 2026-05-12T00:34:51.182Z https://www.daeryunlaw.com/en/broadcast/4352 Final stage of opening of Japanese office... Work to expand into New York is also in full swing. CEO Kuk-il Kim "We will not rest on our laurels as a large domestic law firm... We will aim for the global market" Due to the stagnation of the domestic legal market, many large law firms are turning their attention to the overseas legal market. Until now, large domestic law firms have mainly operated with offices in Asian countries, but recently, there is a law firm that is moving beyond Asia and is moving to open an office in the United States, attracting attention. Daeryun Law Firm (Managing CEO) Kim Kuk-il and Ko Byeong-jun) announced on the 13th, "We will solidify our position as a large law firm in Korea and begin exploring overseas legal markets beyond the domestic market." Daeryun has the largest number of offices in Korea and has built its own legal service system. Daeryun officials believe that Daeryun's customized system based on its unique technical and service expertise is now at a level that can compete with overseas law firms. In particular, if existing law firms operating overseas have operated overseas offices by helping domestic companies advance overseas, Daeryun has solidified its position as a global law firm through a localization strategy of providing legal services to local companies and citizens of each country as its main customers, and has raised substantial foreign currency profits to become a K-law firm. The plan is to strive to create national interests as a leader. According to a Daeryun official, "I understand that you visited New York last month to hold meetings and look for office positions to recruit local lawyers. Please pay attention to the future steps of Daeryun, which has established a solid position in Korea, as it enters the overseas legal market." “We will promote the expertise of large domestic law firms to the world, which will have a beneficial effect on the domestic legal market,” he said. Daeryun’s goal is not limited to simply establishing an overseas office. Based on a meticulous localization strategy, the plan is to actively help overseas offices generate independent profits and gain an advantage in competition with foreign corporations. Expectations for creating national interests are also high. The plan is to provide high-quality legal services to customers located all over the world, promote the Korean market, and contribute to revitalizing the economy by earning foreign currency. Daeryun plans to actively recruit talent to successfully establish itself in overseas markets. In addition to dispatching domestic lawyers overseas, we are also recruiting local lawyers on a large scale. The plan is to solidify the foundation for legal services through lawyers who are well-versed in local laws as well as legal practices and culture. From now on, we plan to focus on ‘building a system.’ It is a method of implementing legal services provided domestically, such as legal advice, consultation, and litigation services, locally. This is even more meaningful in that Daeryun's special system is applied to provide high-quality legal services to local residents. Daeryun CEO Kim Kuk-il explained, "Currently, law firms' expansion into foreign countries is essentially limited to advising domestic companies. They are unable to turn foreign companies into customers, so they do not earn substantial foreign currency income. We plan to improve our status overseas by improving these issues." He continued, "At a time when global legal demand is growing, we expect to be able to provide legal services in various fields in addition to existing countries. “We are considering opening up markets in various countries,” he said, adding, “Based on this, we will provide the best service to customers who need Daeryun’s legal services in any country, and we will establish ourselves as a law firm that is not inferior to the competition with leading law firms in the global market.”[View full article] Jose Ilbo - “We will show the power of K-Law Firm”… Daeryun speeds up overseas office expansion (Go here) Asia Economy - [Law Firm Now] Daeryun Law Firm, Speed ​​of Expansion of Overseas Offices in Japan, U.S., etc. (Shortcut) 2026-05-09T02:16:14.280Z https://www.daeryunlaw.com/en/broadcast/4346 Criminal Division 13 of the Seoul Northern District Court “Considered accidental crime, prevention of escalation of damage, attitude of reflection, etc.” A decision was made to sentence a sister indicted to attempted murder by brandishing a weapon during an argument with her older brother, who had been verbally abusive to the family, to probation. The Criminal Division 13 of the Seoul Northern District Court (Presiding Judge Tae-woong Lee, Judge Hyeon-ho Kim, and Jun-hwan Choi) sentenced a woman in her 40s to trial on charges of attempted murder. Mr. A was sentenced to ‘2 years and 6 months in prison with 3 years of probation’ on the 19th of last month. Mr. A was indicted on charges of stabbing his older brother with a weapon during an argument at their home in April 2023. The prosecution determined that Mr. A used the weapon with intent, but was unable to continue the crime as the victim fought back, so they applied for attempted murder. Defendant A admitted to all crimes. However, the victim asked for leniency, saying that he committed the crime without his knowledge due to growing dissatisfaction with the verbal abuse and violence against himself and his family for a long time, and that he did not intend to kill. Criminal Division 13 of the Seoul Northern District Court, which heard this case, said, “Murder is an act of taking a person’s life and is a serious crime that cannot be recovered by any means.” However, the court pointed out, “It appears that the victim committed the crime accidentally while growing dissatisfied with his treatment of his family carelessly,” and added, “We also took into account the fact that the crime was only an attempt, the fact that he acknowledged and reflected on the crime, and the fact that the victim did not want to be punished.” Attorney Kim Cheol of Daeryun Law Firm (Limited), who represented the defendant A in this criminal case, said, “It could have resulted in a person’s life being threatened.” “It was not a light matter,” he said, but added, “It appears that the suspended sentence was given to Mr. A, taking into account the fact that he did not have a similar criminal record and that he took action to prevent the damage from expanding, such as reporting to 119 immediately after the crime so that emergency measures could be taken.”[View full article] A 40-year-old who stabbed her older brother, who had repeatedly verbally abused her, is charged with attempted murder... ‘suspended sentence’ (link) 2026-05-13T05:40:02.707Z https://www.daeryunlaw.com/en/broadcast/4335 Law firms seeking to pioneer and innovate new markets Korean law firms are turning their attention overseas..

According to the police on the 10th, the Okcheon Police Station in North Chungcheong Province decided not to forward Mr. A, an employee in his 40s, who was suspected of obstruction of business on the 1st of last month. Mr. A was accused of interfering with recruitment by having Mr. It is known that Mr. A was finally passed in the recruitment process based on the relevant introduction. In relation to this, Mr. A denied all charges, saying that he only asked Mr. B to edit and review the self-introduction. He also claimed that the work experience he entered was not false and was actually the work he was responsible for. The police found that Mr. A was not guilty. It was determined that Mr. A had already written a similar self-introduction before dating Mr. B. The police said, "The self-introduction in question was in the past. “It was not much different from what was written,” he explained, “and the results of the investigation by the relevant agency revealed that it was not written on behalf of him.” The suspicion that he had written a false career history was also found to be untrue. The police said, “As a result of receiving information from the company where Mr. A worked, it was confirmed that he actually performed the work described in his self-introduction.” Mr. B, who first filed a complaint regarding this case, expressed his intention to object to the decision not to forward the complaint. Afterwards, Mr. B gathered evidence and filed the complaint again. However, the police again decided not to forward the case, saying, "There is no new evidence to change the existing decision." Attorney Kim Jin-ju of Daeryun Law Firm (Limited), who represented Mr. He further added, “The work history was the actual work that Mr. A was responsible for, so there was no false information, and Mr. B only helped with some corrections during the writing process, so the crime of obstruction of business was not established.”[View full article] A man in his 40s who had his lover ghostwrite his personal statement was ‘not guilty’ of obstruction of business (Go to the link) 2026-05-12T16:15:10.525Z https://www.daeryunlaw.com/en/broadcast/4329 Recently, cases of not receiving the deposit for rent or monthly rent are increasing. Looking at the status of real estate applications for lease registration orders posted on the court registration information plaza, the number of applications filed as of October this year is 52,430. This is about 10,000 higher than the 42,278 recorded during the same period last year. A lease registration order is a system that a tenant applies to the court when the deposit is not returned from the landlord even though the contract has ended. Through this, the tenant can maintain the right to recover the deposit and the right to preferential repayment even if he or she moves. In order to avoid being involved in problems related to the return of the deposit, it is necessary to pay attention from the time of signing the contract for the house. After examining the loan and deposit held by the landlord through a copy of the register, etc., it is necessary to determine whether or not the landlord has the ability to return it. After signing the contract, it is better to immediately file a move-in report and apply for a fixed date to obtain priority repayment rights, and sign up for rental guarantee insurance from the Housing and Urban Guarantee Corporation (HUG). If you do not want to renew, you must notify the landlord of your intention to vacate from 6 months to 2 months before the expiration date. At this time, it is important to keep records of phone calls or text messages. In the case of phone calls, it is a good idea to secure a recording of the call, and in the case of text messages, it is best to secure a reply confirming that the landlord has confirmed the contents of the text message. In some cases, a certificate of contents containing the contract expiration date may be sent. If the deposit has not been returned by the end of the contract, you can apply for a lease registration order or, in some cases, take legal action such as a payment order or civil lawsuit. At this time, if you receive help from an expert based on the data obtained earlier, it is possible to proceed with a more favorable lawsuit. In some cases, there are landlords who do not return the money even if you win the lawsuit for the return of the deposit. In this case, the deposit must be recovered by carrying out compulsory execution procedures based on the favorable judgment. The landlord can dispose of the house owned by a real estate auction or continue to return the deposit through bond or movable property seizure. However, because the issues and aspects of each individual case are different, the documents and measures required are also different. Therefore, it is also a good idea to prepare execution procedures based on thorough preparation and strategy with the help of experts.[View full article] From refund of deposit for rent and monthly rent, from moving-in report to lawsuit and compulsory execution (Shortcut) 2026-05-14T04:55:15.979Z https://www.daeryunlaw.com/en/broadcast/4325 Mr. A is sent on charges of possession and distribution of sexually exploitative material... Prosecutors deny charges of “mixing it with torrent files” Prosecutors say, “It is difficult to recognize sexually exploitative material… there is no intention of possession” No indictment A man in his 40s who was suspected of possessing and distributing sexually exploitative materials about children and adolescents was not indicted by the prosecution. On the 14th of last month, the Eastern Branch of the Busan District Prosecutors' Office decided not to charge Mr. A, in his 40s, who was suspected of violating the Act on Sexual Protection of Children and Adolescents. In January, he was accused of using a torrent program to download about 1,900 files of sexual exploitation of children and adolescents from the so-called ‘N Room incident’ and of possessing and distributing them. The police applied Mr. A to charges of false solicitation based on the fact that information records on folders related to child sexual exploitation were discovered as a result of digital forensics on the SSD storage medium owned by Mr. A and handed over the case to the prosecution. Mr. A completely denied the charges. Before traveling abroad, he downloaded a large amount of movie and drama files through a torrent program, and it was said that illegal footage was mixed in. While checking the list of downloaded files, Mr. A found an executable file suspected to be a virus and immediately deleted all folders. He also emphasized that he was not aware that the materials in question were sexual exploitation materials. He also refuted the charge of distributing sexual exploitation materials. Mr. A argued that the videos in question were simply distributed automatically due to the nature of the torrent program, which is distributed to an unspecified number of people at the same time as downloading. The prosecution decided not to indict Mr. A. This is because each file name of the video received by Mr. A is in alphabetic and numeric format, so it would be difficult to recognize it as sexual exploitation or illegal filming. The prosecution also added, “Due to the nature of the torrent program, we cannot rule out the possibility that files that were not selected by the suspect were also downloaded.” Regarding the related folder information records discovered during the digital forensics process, they explained that it is evidence that the folder was created on the PC and does not serve as evidence that it was viewed. Mr. A’s side Attorney Park Jeong-gu of Daeryun Law Firm (Limited), who acted as legal representative, explained, “Mr. A had no intention of possessing sexually exploitative material at all,” and “During the investigation, no data was found to confirm the circumstances by which Mr. A downloaded the illegally filmed material, and it appears that the prosecution also took this into consideration.”[View full article] A man suspected of possessing and distributing sexually exploitative material was ‘not indicted’ by the prosecution… Why? (Shortcut) 2026-05-13T12:10:03.743Z https://www.daeryunlaw.com/en/broadcast/4320 The court issued a payment order to a company that failed to deliver the price of goods while acquiring a supplier through a subsidiary, saying, "As a matter of practice, the representative's seal is omitted, and the signature of an internal employee is also effective." On the 6th of last month, the Cheonan branch of the Daejeon District Court ruled in favor of the plaintiff in a lawsuit claiming the price of goods brought by company A, a delivery company, against company B, an automobile parts sales company. Company A, which had been paying products to company B for a long time, decided to discontinue business in 2022 due to worsening profitability. A subsidiary of Company B, a product procurement company, made a proposal to acquire the company, and Company A responded. During the acquisition process, the head of the purchasing team of Company B wrote a letter of agreement to pay for the goods to Company A. This included a promise to pay for the goods that Company A had been supplying. Even though the acquisition process was completed, a problem arose when Company B did not pay Company A. Company B denied the fact of the contract with Company A. This is because the company they signed the contract with is a subsidiary and there is no reason to pay for the goods to Company A, which was only in charge of consignment production. They also denied the effect of the payment confirmation letter. Company B defended, saying, “The document in question was written personally by an internal employee and cannot be viewed as an official document. Even if it is effective, this part should be deducted because approximately 19 million won has already been transferred to Company A’s corporate bank account.” Company A launched a rebuttal. This is because, in the process of delivering goods over a long period of time, settlement payments have always been received from Company B’s purchasing team. The claim surrounding 19 million won was also not accepted. Company A countered, saying, "At the time Company B remitted the amount, the right to use the bankbook had already been transferred to the subsidiary that acquired Company A, so we never received the money." The court ruled in favor of the plaintiff, stating that Company B must pay Company A approximately 61 million won. The court explained, "It is acknowledged that the two companies have maintained a business relationship for a considerable period of time. As a result, the head of the purchasing team, not the company representative, decided on the settlement amount and promised to pay it." The court said, "Due to this practice, there were no significant objections even if the seal of Company B's representative, etc., was omitted on the confirmation letter. Therefore, it is correct that Company B decided to pay the money." Regarding the deductible amount, Company B did not accept the claim, saying, "Company B sent money despite knowing that Company A's bank account was managed by its subsidiary according to the corporate transfer agreement," and "This cannot be considered fair debt repayment." Attorney Ji Min-hee of Daeryun Law Firm (Limited), who represented Company A, said, "In practice, even if the signature is not directly signed by the CEO but by the head of the purchasing team, it is often considered valid based on transaction practices," adding, "This ruling appears to be a reasonable ruling that appropriately reflects these commercial practices." said.[View full article] “The contract is valid even without the representative’s seal”… Court orders payment to business partners (link) 2026-05-13T07:04:09.798Z https://www.daeryunlaw.com/en/broadcast/4314 Daeryun Law Firm (Limited) announced on the 9th that it signed an MOU for regional development with Goyang Special City.

It was confirmed that the Gyeongsangnam-do Provincial Police Agency transferred Boy A (12 years old), who was suspected of violating the Act on Sexual Protection of Children and Adolescents, to the juvenile division of Changwon District Court at the end of October. Juveniles between the ages of 10 and 14 who commit acts that violate the juvenile law are considered criminal minors and are subject to protective measures instead of criminal punishment. Person A is accused of exposing part of the body of his classmate, Person B, by pulling down his pants in an elementary school classroom in June 2023. According to the police investigation results, it was confirmed that Group B has suffered from group bullying since 2020. It was confirmed that they habitually harassed Group B, including swearing and teasing him for no reason. In addition, it was revealed that there were acts of physical violence. Another classmate, C, swung a chessboard and hit B on the head. Currently, C is being sent to the juvenile division of the Changwon District Court on charges of special assault. At the School Violence Countermeasures Review Committee (School Violence Committee) held later, Group B mentioned that they were suffering serious trauma due to bullying by the offending students and insisted on severe punishment for them. Group B's legal representative emphasized that severe punishment should be imposed, citing the fact that the violence of the perpetrators has reached a serious level and that the victims are unable to continue their studies due to the school violence that has continued for a long time. The school violence committee, which accepted this claim, decided to impose sanctions on the offending students, including a ban on contact (No. 2), school volunteer work (No. 3), special education (No. 5), and suspension of attendance (No. 6). The maximum punishment for school violence is possible, up to expulsion (No. 9). The police who investigated this case acknowledged the perpetrators' charges of forcible molestation and decided to send them to the juvenile department. Attorney Kim Dae-su of Daeryun Law Firm (Lihan), who is the legal representative for the victim student B, said, “In the case of a victim student, he or she must explain in detail the damage he or she has suffered to the school violence committee or the police, and the psychological damage suffered by the victim in this process is also great.” “We were able to resolve the injustice, and based on the future results, we plan to proceed with the civil lawsuit in an advantageous manner,” he said.[View full article] Elementary school students who committed school violence by ‘hitting the head with a chessboard and even sexually harassing’... sent to the juvenile department (link) 2026-05-13T13:35:21.763Z https://www.daeryunlaw.com/en/broadcast/4309 To the social information security system 52Court of Unauthorized Access to Personal Information "It is an abuse of power, but there is no legal punishment."

The court said, "In order to maintain the obligation to depart on time... it would have been difficult to anticipate the accident." A station worker who was indicted for failing to fulfill his safety management duties in connection with an accident in which a passenger who suddenly jumped onto the tracks was hit by a train was found not guilty in the first trial and also in the appeals court. This is because it was judged that the station staff could not have predicted the passenger's behavior. According to the legal community on the 5th, the Daegu District Court's 1st Criminal Division dismissed the prosecutor's appeal and upheld the lower court's ruling against station worker A, who was suspected of professional negligence last November. While in charge of traffic control at a train station in December 2021, Mr. A is suspected of causing an accident by neglecting his duty of care, such as passenger control. A passenger at the time. Mr. B suffered an accident when he was hit by a train while trying to cross the tracks while heading to the platform. As a result, Mr. B was seriously injured and was taken to the hospital. The prosecution determined that the accident occurred because Mr. A failed to comply with his duty to control passengers at the crossing and entered the station room first. Mr. A denied the charge, saying that he entered the station room first to perform railroad control duties. At the time, Mr. A was carrying out passenger control and railway control duties alone, but he emphasized that it was realistically impossible to perform both duties at the same time due to the distance between the platform and the station office. In addition, Mr. A also claimed that there were difficulties in predicting the occurrence of accidents. The victim suffered an accident while walking on the tracks rather than at a crosswalk, and even if proper control had been implemented, the accident could not have been prevented. The first trial court ruled in favor of Mr. A. The court said, “The reason Mr. A stopped controlling the crossing and entered the station office early was to fulfill another obligation of departing on time,” and added, “Therefore, it is difficult to say that there was a violation of the duty of care at work.” He then said, "At the time of the accident, the victim's blood was found on the tracks away from the railroad crossing, along with testimony that the victim was on the railroad tracks away from the railroad crossing." He concluded, "The accident occurred on the railroad tracks, not the railroad crossing." The prosecution filed an appeal, but the appellate court also made the same decision. The appellate court explained the reason for the acquittal by saying, “The place where the victim was hit by the train is likely to be a track, not a railroad crossing, so it seems impossible for Mr. A to anticipate and prevent the accident.” Attorney Kim Seok-gyun of Daeryun Law Firm (Limited), who represented Mr. A in the appeal trial, said, “According to Paragraph 4 of Article 254 of the Criminal Procedure Act, the facts of the indictment must be specified by specifying the date, place, and method of the crime,” and added, “ “The location is said to be ‘near the railroad crossing,’ but since the court determined that the location of the accident was a railroad track, the facts of the indictment are unspecified,” he said. He added, “It appears that these facts were reflected in the not guilty verdict.” [View full article] - "Accident of passenger suddenly jumping onto the tracks"...

'Difference in franchise fee lawsuit'It started with a loss in.The difference in franchise fee is a profit added to the price of the goods provided by the head office to the franchisee., sort of 'distribution margin'It means.The court ruled that it was unfair for the headquarters to unfairly impose the difference in franchise fee without the consent of the franchise owner.. Currently, Pizza Hut Korea is going through the appeal process., If the ruling is finalized, store owners will be subject to 210Hundreds of millions of won must be returned.The impact of this ruling appears to be spreading throughout the franchise industry.. The controversy continues as other franchise owners are also known to be considering related lawsuits..While this industry turmoil is expected to continue for the time being,, Daeryun Corporate Legal Group recently announced that it will strengthen its franchise team and take a preemptive response.. In relation to this, we met and spoke with attorney Kim Won-sang, head of the Rehabilitation and Bankruptcy Center, who has direct experience participating in the Korea Pizza Hut lawsuit..Next is a Q&A with Attorney Kim..Q. The fact that Pizza Hut Korea lost a lawsuit over franchise fees is becoming a hot topic.. What caused this lawsuit to start??A. Store owners who previously operated Pizza Hut as direct stores have opened franchise stores.(chain) While operating the business, the profit was significantly lower than expected, so the balance sheet was reviewed.. As a result, it was discovered that too much franchise money was being paid to the head office, and it appears that legal relief was necessary and a lawsuit was initiated..Q. In this ruling, the court found that the franchise fee was excessively charged and sided with the franchise owners.. What is the court's standard for making this decision??A. The issue in this case is not whether or not to receive the franchise fee difference. 'Is there a basis in the franchise agreement for receiving the difference in franchise fee?'am. however 1Sim and 2The trial court ruled that there was no basis for this..especially 2Regarding the reason for revising the Franchise Business Act related to franchise fee difference, the trial court said that it was to clarify that if there is a franchise fee differential, the related agreements must be entered in the contract..However, in this case, the franchise agreement and information disclosure document did not explicitly stipulate the difference in franchise fee.. Meanwhile, in a similar case, the Supreme Court ruled that even if information unfavorable to the franchise owner was included in the information disclosure statement and was provided to the franchise owner before signing the contract, it cannot be considered incorporated into the franchise contract..move on 2The ruling ruled that if the head office needs to compensate for the costs incurred in supplying raw and subsidiary materials, it needs to take steps to establish a basis, such as concluding a contract that reflects this or presenting cost calculation data to franchise owners to obtain consent..Q. It appears that the issue of difference in franchise fees between headquarters and franchise owners has been a common practice.. So it seems like the impact of this lawsuit will be significant., What do you think about the news that other franchise owners are also preparing a group lawsuit??A. In relation to the difference in franchise fee, the matters stated in the information disclosure statement are insufficient or cannot be considered to be incorporated into the franchise contract by themselves., Due to previous practice, it is highly likely that the contract concluded between the head office and the franchise owner will not have detailed provisions on the difference in franchise fee., Considering that franchise owners tend to switch from running directly managed stores and have detailed information on profits and expenses, it is expected that franchise owners will be able to receive sufficient compensation through a group lawsuit..Q. On the other hand, some franchise companies responded with embarrassment.. There are also concerns that we may be caught up in a class action lawsuit., How does headquarters need to respond??A. First of all, franchise headquarters should not enter into poor contracts with franchisees.. Calculation details for cost reduction or preservation must be explained to store owners in an easy-to-understand manner and then clearly stated in the franchise agreement to minimize the possibility of disputes..In addition, detailed conversations held with store owners at the time of signing the contract, It seems necessary to collect receipts and tax invoices that can reveal the circumstances under which the franchise fee was received and claim that the difference in franchise fee was included..Q. So, conversely, what are the things that franchise owners should pay close attention to when signing a contract with the head office??A. What contract terms did franchise owners hear from headquarters when signing a contract?, Have you been specifically introduced to the information stated in the information disclosure statement?, It is important to check whether the specific details were explained in the process of paying the franchise fee.. Therefore, the information disclosure statement, If you have a franchise agreement and a statement of franchise fees received from the head office, you will need that statement..The head office has a professional understanding of the business and possesses sufficient important information.. Also, since this is a group of experts who are proficient in finance and accounting, it is recommended that store owners seek help from experts such as lawyers.. Are there any violations of related laws and regulations regarding the franchise business?, What are the basic regulations that can guarantee profits for franchise owners?, A detailed review of the franchise agreement is necessary to minimize disputes that may arise in the business, including the extent of predictable costs to be borne..Q. As franchise owners and franchise headquarters are very interested in unfair practices, legal demand is expected to increase.. In line with this, Daeryun also strengthened the franchise team within the corporate legal group., What specific preparations are you making??A. This lawsuit began with franchise owners carefully examining their financial statements.. Considering this, the Daeryun Franchise Team provides franchise contracts to franchise companies based on the expertise it has accumulated through consulting on various corporate accounting, finances, and taxes., Provides legal analysis of information disclosure statements. In addition, we provide consulting on the financial structure of franchise owners..Q. In this dispute, what legal improvements do you think are needed to balance the responsibilities of the headquarters and protect the rights of franchisees??A. Franchise business is a business that anyone can easily start, so it has the characteristic of being independent of the type of industry.. Therefore, I think it is necessary for authorities to quickly improve regulations in line with the development of related industries..Q. Lastly, is there anything you would like to say to those who are experiencing franchise-related lawsuits or disputes??A.

The expert pointed out, “This could amount to criminal coercion.” The day before, on the 2nd, KBS joy's 'Ask Me Anything' featured the story of A, a woman suffering from depression due to abortion and her boyfriend's affair. Ms. A started dating her boyfriend at the chicken restaurant where she worked part-time in 2016. She had been dating her boyfriend for six years, breaking up and getting back together, but they eventually became close enough to end up living together. After living together, she became pregnant and had two children. However, the boyfriend was seeing another woman, B, without A's knowledge. He continued to date in secret, hiding the fact that he was dating Mr. A from the other woman. But is there a way to get caught if the tail is long? Person A later found out that her boyfriend was cheating on her and demanded that she end the relationship with Person B. Accordingly, the boyfriend borrowed money from Mr. B and postponed ending the relationship, asking him to wait until he repaid the money. The boyfriend did not break up with person B even though person A was pregnant. Instead, it is reported that Mr. B sent text messages to her boyfriend, saying, “Tell your girlfriend to have an abortion surgery,” and “Wouldn’t it be okay if I get pregnant too?” Ms. A eventually underwent abortion surgery. Mr. A then claimed that Mr. B left messages on his SNS (social media) such as “You are XX” and “Your baby is crying in heaven. I am so happy that your baby is dead.” Person A complained of damage, saying, “I am currently getting along well with my boyfriend, but I was diagnosed with depression because of that incident,” and “I want to escape the hurt.” Regarding this story, on the 3rd, lawyer Kwak Ji-yeon of Daeryun Law Firm advised, “If there was content in the verbal abuse that could be considered a threat, it could be considered criminal coercion, and you can also claim compensation for the illegal act.” At the same time, he added, “If social media (SNS) is open to an unspecified number of people, a violation of the Internet Act (defamation) is naturally established,” and “it appears that a claim for compensation will be possible.” [View full article] - A woman who stole her boyfriend and forced him to “get rid of his child”… Expert: “This could amount to criminal coercion” (Shortcut) 2026-05-10T02:42:05.495Z https://www.daeryunlaw.com/en/broadcast/4279 Recently, illegal gambling by youth has emerged as a serious social problem. As a result of the National Police Agency's special crackdown on cyber gambling from September 25 last year to November 31 this year, a total of 9,971 people were arrested, of which 4,715, or nearly half, were teenagers. Adolescents' values ​​are not fully formed, so their way of thinking and judgment are often immature compared to adults. During these times, not only is the risk of falling into gambling greater, but it is also very likely to lead to psychological addiction. This not only causes financial losses but also has a serious impact on overall life, including academics, relationships, and family life. In particular, young people often indulge in gambling in cyberspace. This is because not many places require a separate adult verification process, so the sign-up process is simple and can be easily accessed using smartphones, etc. In addition to the guaranteed anonymity of being able to enjoy gambling without the knowledge of adults around you, such as parents or teachers, another reason is that it is easy to see advertisements for illegal gambling sites online. Anyone who gambles, including cyber gambling, is subject to a fine of up to 10 million won under Article 246 of the Criminal Act. If the act is repeated, a prison sentence of up to 3 years or a fine of up to 20 million won will be imposed. If you operate a gambling house, the punishment is further strengthened and you are subject to imprisonment for up to 5 years or a fine of up to 30 million won. In general, minors are often sentenced to protective custody unless they commit a violent crime. As for gambling, if it is your first offense, you can seek leniency. However, if you have gambled multiple times or run a gambling house, the story may be different. In fact, quite a few young people are involved in operating gambling sites, and in this case, the crime of opening a gambling site is applied and even minors can be put on trial. This means that, unlike a juvenile protection trial, the charges will be acknowledged and a criminal record will remain. In fact, last year, the Uijeongbu District Prosecutors' Office indicted a group of people who operated an illegal gambling site, 12 of whom were teenagers. Therefore, if you are suspected of opening a gambling site, you must actively respond by developing a strategy that suits your situation. To achieve this, it is necessary to seek help from a legal expert such as a lawyer as soon as possible. Also, even if you commit a crime for the first time and can seek leniency, this does not mean that legal action will not be taken. Therefore, an active response is needed to receive a lighter disposition. Therefore, in this case as well, it is best to proceed with legal procedures by establishing a thorough strategy with the assistance of experts.

It was confirmed that the Eastern Branch of the Busan District Prosecutors' Office decided not to indict, deferring the indictment of Mr. A, who was suspected of special injuries, in October of last year. In September 2024, he was handed over to the prosecution on charges of special injury for injuring his ex-wife while she was hospitalized by hitting him with a glass cosmetics bottle. At the time, it was found that Mr. A was experiencing financial difficulties surrounding the issue of collecting his ex-wife's hospital expenses. The extreme stress led to frequent drinking, and on the day of the incident, Mr. A was also drunk and hit his ex-wife with a bottle, and the nurse who discovered it reported it to the police. Mr. A admitted all the charges, but appealed for leniency, saying he committed the crime accidentally. The prosecution investigating the case decided not to indict. The prosecution said, "The charges are acknowledged. Injuring the victim is not a light matter," but judged, "It appears that the crime occurred accidentally while Mr. A was faithfully caring for the victim." The prosecution then stated the reason for the postponement of the indictment, saying, "We take into account the fact that the victim does not want punishment and that Mr. A has acknowledged the charges and is reflecting on them." Attorney Seung-chan Lee of Daeryun Law Firm (Limited), who defended suspect A, said, “After the incident occurred, Mr. A worked hard to raise money for the victim’s hospital expenses by looking into support programs such as fundraising groups, and as a result, he was able to complete the payment,” he said. “As a result of emphasizing the circumstances of the incident as well as the subsequent circumstances, we were able to obtain the result of a deferred prosecution.” [View full article] - A man in his 70s who fell ill while taking care of his hospitalized ex-wife... ‘Indictment deferred’ (link) 2026-05-03T05:53:18.871Z https://www.daeryunlaw.com/en/broadcast/4263 Tenant asks building owner's child to renew contract Building owner claims, "I was not contacted" The court said, "The child managed the building on his behalf... Judging it as a notice to the landlord, considering it as the actual manager." The court ruled that if someone else actually managed the building on behalf of the building owner, he or she can be viewed as the building owner's agent. According to the legal community on the 2nd, the Pohang Branch of the Daegu District Court ruled on October 24 that the plaintiff in a suit for delivery of the building filed by building owner A to commercial tenant B. The claim was dismissed. Mr. A and Mr. B signed a contract in May 2021 with a deposit of 20 million won, monthly rent of 1.1 million won, and management fee of 50,000 won. As the expiration date approached, Mr. A's daughter, who was managing the building, suggested to Mr. B an increase in monthly rent and management fees and a shortened contract period as conditions for renewing the contract. Mr. B expressed his refusal. Then, Mr. A's daughter was given a contract for 2 years under the same conditions as before. A text message was sent stating that he would exercise his 'right to claim contract renewal', which can be extended. However, Mr. A said that he could not accept this and filed a lawsuit for delivery of the building. According to the Commercial Lease Act, in order to exercise the right to claim contract renewal, he must notify the building owner at least one month before the expiration of the contract, but Mr. B did not comply with this. At the same time, Mr. A emphasized that he could not accept the text message that Mr. B sent to his daughter regarding the exercise of the right to claim. Accordingly, Mr. B said that Mr. A's daughter usually represents the building owner. He claimed that he did it himself. He also added that the number in Mr. A's daughter's name was written in the landlord's phone number section of the building lease agreement. He also emphasized that since the text message was sent a month before the expiration date, the contract should be considered renewed. The court ruled in Mr. B's favor. The court said, "Mr. A's daughter represented the landlord during the contract period and asked about the use of the building and whether to renew the contract." He added, "She was in charge of actual building management, such as collecting management fees and notifying of elevator inspections, and she herself had the authority of the landlord. “The only landlord number written in the contract was the number in the name of Mr. A’s daughter,” the court ruled. “Mr. B’s notification to Mr. A’s daughter a month ago can be viewed as a notification to the landlord.” He then ruled, “The contract in question has not expired due to renewal requests and is continuing.” Daeryun Law Firm (Limited), which acted as legal representative for Mr. B, said, “Even if he did not directly state his authority as an agent, he could be judged as an agent based on social convention. “If we have approved or condoned the use of a name that can be used, it can be seen as having been granted this authority,” he said. “We have also managed the entire rental contract relationship, including issuing tax invoices on behalf of the building owner, Mr. A.” He added, “Taking these circumstances into consideration, it appears that Mr. A’s daughter has been recognized as an agent.” [View full article] - "The landlord's children, who actually managed the building, can be viewed as agents" (link) 2026-05-11T05:54:21.055Z https://www.daeryunlaw.com/en/broadcast/4261 Mr. A was accused by the relevant agency of being an unqualified businessman... “Written at the request of the company,” the prosecution claimed. “It is unclear whether the written service contract was actually concluded.” A worker accused of carrying out subcontracting work without registering construction qualifications was cleared by the prosecution. On the 7th of last month, the Namyangju Branch of the Uijeongbu District Prosecutors' Office decided not to prosecute worker A, who was sent on charges of violating the Framework Act on the Construction Industry. Mr. A, who worked as a human resources team leader at a construction company, was not registered by related organizations such as the Seoul Regional Construction Management Office. He was accused of construction. This is because the fact that subcontracting work was carried out without registering as a construction business was confirmed through service contracts, etc. They emphasized that the quotation submitted by Mr. A to the company was also confirmed. However, Mr. A denied the charges. He said he was just an employee belonging to the company and not a subcontractor. At the same time, Mr. A claimed that the contract was written at the request of an official from the company where he worked. In addition, Mr. A explained that at the time of writing the document, an official from the company mentioned the issue of severance pay for those who left the company midway and asked for his signature to resolve the issue. At the same time, he emphasized that the contract was drawn up after persuading the relevant person that there would be no disadvantage, and that there was no fact that the quotation was written at all. The prosecution determined that Mr. A was a worker who simply provided labor. The prosecution said, “If you look at the written service contract, there is no specific construction details written down,” and “It is unclear whether the contract was actually concluded because Mr. A’s company is listed in both the supplier and contractor categories.” He added, “Even the large amount stated in the quotation has never been deposited into Mr. A’s account.” Considering these details, Mr. A cannot be concluded as a separate subcontractor.” Daeryun Law Firm (Limited), which represented Mr. A. Attorney Jeong Jae-bong said, “When the issue of severance pay arose, the company forced Mr. A to sign a contract and claimed it was a service relationship.” He added, “In addition, the company once filed a lawsuit seeking compensation on the grounds that they had paid severance pay on Mr. A’s behalf, and they lost this case as well.” He added, “It appears that the prosecution also accepted the result of this lawsuit and acquitted the case.” [View full article] - I'm just a worker... Accused of being an ‘unqualified businessman’? (Shortcut) 2026-04-30T14:38:16.666Z https://www.daeryunlaw.com/en/broadcast/4256 After the first ruling in 2022, two similar cases this year specify payment for the same work as regular workers. As legal precedents increase, the period for adjusting corporate regulations is shortened and the basis for payment is established. Courts are continuing to judge that if hired interns performed the same work as regular workers during their working period, they should be paid the same performance bonus. The idea is that since people do the same work, they should not be treated differently in performance bonus payments. There are observations that the court decision may result in changes to each company's internship system regulations in the future. This means that it can indicate a clear direction, such as reducing the number of interns themselves or establishing new performance-based payment regulations. According to the legal community on the 1st, the Seoul Central District Court's Civil Settlement Division 48 ruled in a lawsuit for damages due to discriminatory treatment filed by Mr. An experiential internship system was operated from 2009 to 2013. Afterwards, in accordance with government guidelines, the ‘Recruitment Intern’ system was introduced in 2014. Every year, the corporation paid performance bonuses to its employees in accordance with the compensation regulations. However, when interns and contract workers were excluded from payment, Mr. A and others filed a lawsuit, saying, “Even though we performed the same work as regular workers, performance bonuses were not paid during the internship period.” This is because failure to pay bonuses for doing the same work is a violation of Article 6 of the Labor Standards Act or Article 8 of the Fixed-Term Contract Act. The issue was whether the target of comparison for hired interns should be regular employees of the construction company. The court judged hired interns to be temporary workers, different from general trainees. The court pointed out that there was no essential difference from the work performed by regular workers, saying, “Recruited interns were assigned independent tasks like regular workers when they joined the corporation, and performed the same tasks even after being converted to full-time workers after completing the internship period.” The court ruled that the construction company violated the fixed-term law. Article 8, Paragraph 1 of the Fixed-Term Contract Act stipulates that “an employer shall not treat workers differently on the grounds that they are fixed-term workers compared to workers who have entered into an employment contract with an indefinite period to engage in the same or similar work at the relevant business or workplace.” A month earlier, in September, the 13th Civil Division of the Daegu District Court also partially won in favor of a portion of the plaintiffs in a claim for damages due to discrimination filed by 330 of the company’s interns against the Korea Real Estate Board, with a similar effect to the Korea Mint Corporation ruling. Judgment was made. The Daegu District Court also ruled that the workers subject to comparison for hired interns are regular workers. The 12th Civil Division of the Daegu District Court also sided with the interns in the lawsuit filed by interns employed by Korea Gas Corporation against the corporation in 2022. This was the first case where it was ruled that it is natural to pay performance bonuses to employed interns if they have continued to perform work similar to that of full-time employees. Dong-Han Lim, a spokesperson for Dongin Law Firm, said, “Employed interns can be considered an intermediate step in converting to full-time workers at private or public companies,” and explained, “The relevant rulings clearly state that they discriminated against temporary workers without any reason, as they are considered to be in violation of the anti-discrimination law.” Intae Bang, attorney at Daeryun Law Firm, said, “Interns who are employed can be considered an intermediate step in converting to full-time workers at private or public companies.” “Employment rules or regulations that do not provide any allowances to interns become illegal company regulations and become ineffective,” he predicted. “Ultimately, due to the violation of Article 8, Paragraph 1 of the Fixed-Term Act regarding non-payment of performance bonuses, this will become a claim for compensation for damages resulting from illegal acts, creating a risk that the corporation or the company will have to compensate.” He then suggested, “If there is a move to file a lawsuit like the Mint and Mint Corporation, it is most realistic to consult with the labor union in advance to prevent litigation costs.” Some predict that these rulings may lead to a series of proactive measures by companies. In fact, some construction companies are moving towards clarifying the basis for payment by creating a new clause in the intern employment contract regarding whether performance bonuses will be paid. On the other hand, there is also the possibility of a reduction in the hiring internship system. From a company's perspective, this system is implemented because it needs a period of time to screen excellent employees before converting them to full-time employees, but as it has been decided that the recruitment-type internship period is viewed along the same lines as regular employees, the period can be shortened as much as possible.

As a lawyer of 6 years, I am handling a variety of cases. Especially when I solve the problems of people in financial difficulties, I realize once again that the path I have taken has not been in vain. A few days ago, a fellow lawyer's Instagram story touched my heart. “I become an interview committee member and visit a company I would never have thought of joining before.” The irony of time contained in a single line of writing made me reflect on the depth of life. A few days later, a classmate from law school contacted me. He said that there was an opening at his company and that he would highly recommend me. That company was a company that every young person dreamed of at least once, and a few years ago, I wonder if I could have imagined such a moment. Maybe you didn't believe it. Like this, the stories about me and those around me clearly show how unpredictable life is. I graduated from Seoul Law School, prepared for the bar exam, and enlisted on active duty as a private at the age of 29. After being discharged from the military, while looking for a job at a media company, I happened to learn about the law school scholarship system through a friend. At the age of 35, I entered law school, and studied happily while receiving full tuition exemption and a living scholarship worth 1 million won per month. Also, I have competed in the Spring Literary Contest every year since entering college, but have been unsuccessful for 7 years, and finally won after my 8th attempt. The winning work was submitted as a slightly modified version of the previously rejected work, as I was preparing for the second round of the bar exam and had no time to write a new work. Paradoxically, unexpected joy came during the busiest and most difficult times. Law school was a particularly valuable time. Although I was the oldest among 41 classmates, that experience became my strength. Thanks to my background as a law major, I was able to study leisurely and engage in a variety of activities. I participated in the journal editorial committee, Christian clubs, and various study groups, and also participated in various mock trial competitions. It was a fruitful three years, completing 120 credits, much more than the 96 credits required for graduation. I can't forget the story of the two friends I studied with back then. Of the two friends who studied together with the dream of becoming a prosecutor, one passed, and the other did not pass. Years later, my friend, who became a prosecutor, knocked on the door of a law firm after retirement, but was rejected. The law firm already had a friend who had failed the prosecutor's exam. Our life is full of unpredictable moments like this. Life is like a music channel on YouTube. There are many moments when the song you want doesn't come out right away, but in the process, you sometimes discover an unexpected masterpiece. In the moments when things don't go as planned, we find a path that leads to greater happiness. It later turns out that the path we did not want at first was actually the path that suited us best. Just like the Netflix series, where the main character becomes a supporting character and the supporting character becomes the lead, unexpected developments are hidden in our lives as well. Even if you feel like a supporting role now, it can be a process that takes you to the leading role. We move according to our own timetable, and sometimes what seems like a slow pace may actually be the most appropriate timing. At this moment, numerous prospective lawyers are preparing for the bar exam at 25 law schools across the country. How many people are still holding on to the dream they had when they entered school? But let's remember: The true winner is not the one who runs ahead from the beginning, but the one who runs to the end at his own pace. The sweat you shed is never in vain. It will definitely come back, sometimes as a precious relationship, sometimes as a solid skill, and sometimes as an unexpected opportunity. Every moment now is a stepping stone that will lead you to a better future. So, be strong today too. Thinking of the moment of joy that awaits you beyond the horizon. At this moment, each line you are writing will soon become a scene from a touching drama. I sincerely hope that everyone who reads this will pass the exam and have a bright future ahead of them.

Although Jung Woo-sung promised to fulfill his child-rearing responsibilities, it was found that in Korean society, single parents often do not receive proper child support from the other parent. An expert who spoke with Segye Ilbo on the 28th emphasized the importance of keeping promises, saying, “If Jung Woo-sung does not pay child support, he will be punished.” Previously, model Moon Ga-bi (35) announced that she had given birth to actor Jung Woo-sung (51)'s child in March. Since then, interest in ‘unmarried childbirth’ has increased, but there are still voices calling for improvement in systems and awareness as there are still obstacles to living as a single mother in Korean society, such as economic problems and social prejudice. In an interview with MBC's 'Kim Jong-bae's Focus' on the 26th, Choi Hyun-sook, the representative of the single mothers' association 'Intree', who revealed that she gave birth without marriage in 2004, pointed out, "In the case of 'non-marital birth', the biological father is rarely responsible." He argued, “Even though the court ruled at the time of divorce, there are not many non-custodians who pay child support,” adding, “Single mothers give birth to children alone, and there is not even a ruling (specifying responsibility for child support in the event of divorce). Most men cut off contact as soon as they become pregnant, or there are many cases where they cannot contact them because they have already broken up.” According to the Act on Securing and Supporting Child Support (Child Support Implementation Act) and the Domestic Litigation Act, parents who do not directly raise minor children must faithfully pay child support determined by agreement or court ruling to parents who directly raise minor children. This bill is intended to create an environment for the growth of minor children, regardless of the parents' marital status, and child support must be paid from birth until the child reaches the age of 19. If a child support debtor who does not directly raise a child refuses to pay child support, he or she may file a lawsuit claiming child support for non-payment of child support. The family court can also issue an order to pay child support. However, despite these sanctions, the obligation to pay child support is not being met. According to the ‘Legislative Impact Analysis of the Child Support Implementation Act’ report released by the National Assembly Research Service in 2022, the child support compliance rate applied by single mothers in 2021 was found to be only 33.6%. In the case of divorced fathers and divorced mothers, they were 53.9% and 59.5%, respectively, with single mothers receiving the lowest child support rate. The overall child support compliance rate, which was 38.3% in 2021, increased significantly to 44.7% as of September this year. Nevertheless, more than half of single parents raising children are still unable to receive child support even after receiving confirmation of payment of child support. Representative Choi said, "The process to receive child support is complicated and takes a long time. Even if you go through all the procedures and find the father, there is a law (forcing child support), but in fact, if you don't pay it, it's okay," pointing out that the law has no practical effect. He added, “It is very important to force non-custodians to pay child support,” and emphasized that the most difficult part for single mothers in reality is their economic situation. Regarding non-payment of child support, lawyer Do Il-seok of Daeryun Law Firm told Segye Ilbo on this day, “Non-payment of child support is equivalent to a crime of impunity against the will,” and “If Jung Woo-sung does not pay child support, the child support deliberation committee may suspend his driver’s license, ban him from leaving the country, and reveal him on the list of defaulters.” He went on to explain, “If child support is not paid, the other woman can apply for a compliance order,” and “if the compliance order is violated, a fine may be imposed.” At the same time, he added, “In particular, if you do not comply with the implementation order, you can apply for a detention order, and if you violate the detention order, you can be imprisoned for up to one year and fined up to 10 million won,” but added, “However, since it is a crime of impunity against the will, such punishment can be avoided through agreement.” Meanwhile, starting from July next year, the 'child support payment system' is expected to be introduced, where the state pays child support to the child first in the event of default on child support obligations and recovers it from the debtor, further strengthening the child support implementation support system. The government is strengthening sanctions against child support debt by separating the Child Support Implementation Management Center, which was an internal organization of the Korea Healthy Family Promotion Agency, into a separate agency to strengthen the function of child support payment and recovery, and by simplifying the sanctions procedure for non-payers of child support from the existing three stages of 'performance order → detention order → sanctions' to allowing sanctions to be initiated immediately after the performance order.

Expert: “This is how you will be punished” (Shortcut) 2026-05-04T04:26:31.936Z https://www.daeryunlaw.com/en/broadcast/4232 A man in his 30s who was sued for defamation after protesting against a co-worker who verbally abused him was acquitted. According to the legal community on the 28th, the Mokpo Branch of the Gwangju District Prosecutors' Office decided not to indict employee A, who was accused of defamation, on the 11th. Person A was sent to the prosecution on charges of defaming fellow employee B by gossiping about him in a public place in August 2020. At the time. It was investigated that Mr. A went to Mr. B's office and said, "Call me late at night and explain why it was your fault for not being promoted." In response, Mr. B said, "I never said anything about the promotion," and claimed that Mr. A had spread false information and damaged his reputation. However, Mr. A denied the charge, saying, "Mr. B called me first and poured out abusive language, and I only complained about it." He emphasized that he requested help but did not receive it, so he went directly to the office. The Mokpo Police Station, which received the case, decided not to forward the case last July. “It is difficult to say that what Mr. A said in a public place infringes on Mr. B’s social values,” he said, adding, “This is a simple protest against the verbal abuse made by Mr. B.” However, as Mr. B disobeyed the police’s decision, the case was transferred to the prosecution in October. The prosecution reexamined the case. “We carefully reviewed the objection and investigation records, but there is no evidence to change the police’s decision not to forward the case,” he said. Attorney Ahn Jun-pyo of the Daeryun Law Firm, who represented Mr. A, explained, “In order to establish a charge of defamation, specific facts that lower social evaluations with the intention of damaging the reputation of others must be disclosed,” adding, “It is difficult to view the statements made by Mr. A in the process of protesting against Mr. B as statements that could objectively infringe on social values.” [View full article] - Office worker sued for defamation after protesting against abusive co-worker, 'acquitted' (link) 2026-05-13T13:10:27.448Z https://www.daeryunlaw.com/en/broadcast/4230 Systematization of welfare systems such as spouse maternity leave... Overcoming practices within the industry All executives and employees, including male lawyers, freely use the welfare system Daeryun Kim Kuk-il, CEO, “We plan to improve the system to ensure satisfaction of executives and employees” Daeryun Law Firm (Limited) attorney Tae-hwan Kim started last summer with ‘child care’ and ended with ‘child care.’ Leaving behind the hectic daily commute to work, Attorney Kim personally prepared breakfast for his children every day. Bathing, walking, and reading books were also his duties. It was thanks to ‘childcare leave’ that such close care for children was possible. Attorney Kim said, “Previously, I only had time to take care of my children on weekends, but by taking leave, I was able to fully focus on raising children.” Attorney Daeryun Choi Ji-hoon, who went on maternity leave for her spouse three months ago, recalled the time when she first applied for leave. Due to the nature of my job as a lawyer, it was difficult to imagine being away from work for a week, so I was worried. Attorney Choi said, “It wasn’t actually easy to say that I was going to go on maternity leave when I wasn’t even giving birth myself.” However, the company's response was positive enough to make these concerns seem meaningless. He expressed his emotions, saying, “With a lot of help, I was able to be with my wife at the most important moment in my life, giving birth.” Due to the somewhat conservative nature of the law firm industry, related welfare systems such as parental leave and spousal maternity leave are still often a mere pie in the sky for male lawyers. In fact, according to the 'Survey on the Recruitment, Work and Work-Family Balance of Lawyers' conducted by the Korean Bar Association last year, the proportion of male lawyers who were unable to use maternity leave when their spouse gave birth reached 30%. The period of use was also found to be short. As a result of a survey of male lawyers who used their spouse's maternity leave, the following order was found: 5 days or more (34.2%), 3 days (21.9%), 1 day (5.8%), and 4 days (1.9%). Although the spousal maternity leave guaranteed by the Act on Equal Employment Opportunity for Men and Women and Support for Work-Family Balance is 10 days, the industry consensus is that it is difficult to use in practice. Unlike this industry atmosphere, Daeryun is actively operating a child care welfare system. Male lawyers who benefited from related policies agreed that they were able to focus on their families and childcare thanks to the corporation's family-friendly culture. Attorney Kim Tae-hwan, who returned to work after completing parental leave, emphasized, "At the company level, men are actively encouraged to use the system, and my colleagues around me also took this for granted and were considerate, so I was able to take care of my children with peace of mind." In addition, Daeryun also solved the financial problem that was the biggest obstacle to deciding to take parental leave. We are leading the way in operating ‘work from home during childcare’ for employees who are concerned about a decrease in income due to leave. A sustainable working environment has been created to help catch the two birds with one stone, 'childcare' and 'work'. In this way, Daeryun, which is making various efforts to balance work and family, has established itself as a law firm that fulfills its social responsibilities. CEO Kook-il Kim said, "We plan to supplement the system to ensure the satisfaction of all employees through continuous monitoring of related welfare systems such as childcare leave." Meanwhile, Daeryun has various family-friendly policies in addition to childcare leave. It is being implemented. Typically, it supports △leave due to miscarriage △shortened work hours during childcare period △and provision of work adaptation programs after returning to work.

'Not guilty' claim, court says, "It's not continuous or repetitive, so it's not enough to cause fear." A man in his 30s who was accused of stalking his estranged wife was cleared of the charges after a legal battle. This is because contact for discussion was necessary during the divorce process, and the contact did not appear to meet the elements of stalking crime, such as continuity, repetition, and urgency. On the 31st of last month, Gwangju District Court Chief Judge Kim So-yeon declared Mr. A (32) not guilty on charges of violating the Stalking Punishment Act. Mr. A is accused of stalking his estranged wife, Ms. B (31), by sending her dozens of text messages asking her to meet him. Mr. A and Mr. B had been separated since November of last year. At the beginning of the separation, Mr. B requested that Mr. A not make any unnecessary contact other than divorce matters. Mr. A ignored this and continued to contact him to ask about his well-being, including his daily life. After hearing from an acquaintance that Mr. B had another man, he went to her home and office. According to the Stalking Punishment Act, if you continue or repeat acts such as approaching or contacting the other person against the will of the other person without a justifiable reason, you can be punished by imprisonment for up to 3 years or a fine of up to 30 million won. At the trial, Mr. A's legal representative said that there were matters to be legally settled between Mr. A and Mr. B, such as changing the names of various utility bills following the dissolution of the marriage relationship. It was argued that there was a legitimate reason for the contact. The legal representative emphasized that it is difficult to say that Mr. A's actions caused anxiety or fear from the perspective of the general public. At the same time, the judgment of stalking was based on the Supreme Court ruling that comprehensive consideration should be given to ▲ the content of the text ▲ the method and meaning of expression ▲ the relationship between the parties ▲ the circumstances and number of times the text was sent ▲ the circumstances before and after it ▲ the situation the other party is in. The court also ruled that Mr. A's actions cannot be considered stalking. Chief Judge Kim said, "The defendant and the victim have not legally dissolved their marital relationship. “It seems that a consultation process on various issues was clearly necessary in this situation,” he said. “It is acknowledged that the defendant contacted the victim several times in relation to the issue of the opposite sex, but considering the content and number of transmissions, it is difficult to conclude that he continuously and repeatedly created anxiety and caused fear in the victim.” Attorney Dae-ryun of Naeunjung Law Firm (Limited), who represented Mr. A, said, “In this case, the other party needed to consider the special nature of being a married couple in relation to legal issues such as divorce. “Text messages, etc. were allowed, and the conversation just continued in the process,” he said. “The contact was also just a one-time or discontinuous act, and there was no intention at all, and we were able to successfully obtain an acquittal by proving that it did not meet the requirements of a stalking crime, such as continuity, repetition, and urgency.” [View full article] - Wife reported stalking her husband, saying, "He's contacting me even though we're separated"...

Abusing this point is the deepfake (false video) crime. Deepfake is a compound word of deep learning and fake, and refers to a technology that synthesizes photos and videos using AI (artificial intelligence). For example, the method of creating composite images of famous people is to defame the victims and invade their privacy. The reason deepfake has recently emerged as a serious social problem is because this technology is being used to produce pornography. The level of damage is very serious as the faces of others are composited and distributed in pornography or sexually exploitative material that causes sexual shame. In fact, the number of deepfake sex crime cases reported to the National Police Agency has increased more than six-fold, from 156 in 2021 to 964 as of October this year. In addition, the number of victims supported by the Digital Sex Crime Support Center also increased by about seven-fold from 176 to 1,201 during the same period. The bigger problem is that in the case of deepfake crimes, once they begin, the damage spreads rapidly and uncontrollably. In particular, since most videos are shared through messengers based on overseas servers such as Telegram, it is not easy to detect those who spread them. In addition, as videos are reproduced through various channels, it is often difficult to completely delete them. As the controversy surrounding deepfakes grows, the government's efforts to eradicate digital sex crimes have also become busy. Recently, the government announced a plan to make it a principle to arrest and investigate suspects of deepfake sex crimes, and to confiscate and collect all property and profits obtained from the crime. In particular, the Sexual Violence Punishment Act has been revised to allow for disguised investigations even when the victim is an adult, improving the fact that false investigations were only possible when the victim was a child or adolescent. The level of punishment has also been strengthened. The legal penalty for those who edit and distribute deepfake videos has been increased from 5 years to 7 years in prison. In addition, the phrase ‘for the purpose of distributing, etc.’ was deleted from the criminal requirements, making punishment possible even if the intention to disseminate is not clearly proven. Last September, the Ministry of Justice also revised the law to allow punishment for possession, purchase, storage, and viewing of deepfake sex crimes. Minors are no exception to the punishment of deepfake crimes. In fact, a teenager was arrested for selling false videos last September, and it was discovered that the high school student composited the faces of acquaintances, such as classmates and teachers, into nude photos and sold them to make pocket money. As legal punishment is becoming more stringent, if you are involved in a related crime, it is necessary to get help from a professional attorney as soon as possible rather than taking individual action such as arbitrarily deleting the video or erasing the viewing history.

Expansion of scale, including doubling of manpower and division of work. Best to support victims, such as daily life companionship and legal advice on safety separation. Recently, relationship murder has emerged as a social problem. In May, a medical student deliberately murdered his girlfriend with whom he was having a conflict over a breakup. Earlier this month, in Gumi, North Gyeongsang Province, a woman who was under police protection was assaulted by her ex-boyfriend. Dating violence, which involves violence against a lover, is also occurring in large numbers. As violence and murder cases arising from romantic relationships continue to occur, the public is constantly pointing out that the current crime victim protection system, such as customized patrols and the provision of smart watches, has a large protection gap and is difficult to fundamentally prevent crime. Accordingly, the demand for private professional security services is increasing. Daeryun Law Firm announced on the 22nd that it has strengthened the capabilities of its security center to keep up with this demand. It plans to more than double the number of professional security agents and subdivide the security service area to systematically protect victims. From defense of clients to security services, the law firm plans to do its best to maximize the legal interests of clients as well as protect their personal lives. The security center provides professional security services to help clients who feel threatened by their personal lives live a safer daily life, regardless of the type of civil, criminal, or sexual crime case. In addition, it provides services differentiated from general security companies by helping to smoothly resolve legal conflicts through on-site support from lawyers in charge and the use of big data from tens of thousands of criminal cases. In order to maintain the high quality of security service, Daeryun Security Center provides services differentiated from general security companies, We have a team of professional security guards who have passed strict selection criteria, including those with a 3rd degree or higher diploma, and provide ceremonial vehicles and various security equipment, and deploy at least 2 to 4 security personnel depending on the risk of the incident. Next, we adopted the security operation management standard system established by the International Organization for Standardization (ISO) and made great efforts to develop effective programs, such as subdividing service areas according to actual cases at home and abroad. First of all, stalking, sexual crimes, dating violence, etc. We provide a 'safe life service' to respond to precursor crimes that can easily lead to violent crimes. A safety manual is created by comprehensively considering the entire range of life and habits of the security guard and the characteristics of the other person, and the other person's will to commit crime is blocked in advance through real-time legal advice, evidence, and a public-private joint physical defense program. In addition, in case of school violence, the 'Our Children's Safe Support Program' is also provided. In addition to providing a thorough security service for the victim, we secure a safe environment and actively respond to crisis situations by considering the behavior patterns, subcultures, and psychology of the offending student or peer group. In addition, we are providing a 'Safe Companion Service' that provides security and protocol at the same time when attending a court or police station. Security agents can also be dispatched to various conflict sites such as business obstruction, bond debt relations, compulsory execution or name-calling lawsuits, drafting of agreements, and general shareholders' meetings. In October, a female client who was preparing for divorce due to assault and threats by her gangster spouse, who was on trial without detention, received great help through Daeryun's security service. Daeryun Security Center established a systematic security plan after investigating the forces behind the spouse and the dangers. During the security process, the spouse and related forces approached the client, threatened him, and even followed him with a vehicle, but all threatening actions were immediately stopped by security agents, and various illegal acts collected at the scene were collected. Everything has been handed over to the relevant judicial authorities. Kim Kuk-il, CEO of Management, explained, "Many of our clients unintentionally face threats to their personal lives during the litigation process. Daeryun Security Center is systematically predicting, analyzing, and responding to various crisis situations that may occur so that we can quickly provide security services suitable for all situations that threaten the safety of our clients." He continued, "We place the safety of our clients as the top priority and do not use indiscriminate physical force or engage in any illegal acts." “We will provide high-quality security services,” he emphasized.

Judge Kim Young-soo of the Seoul Central District Court, Civil Division 71, said that A in his 60s filed a case against his acquaintance B. In the loan claim lawsuit filed, a ruling was made on October 17 to dismiss the plaintiff's claim. In September 2023, Mr. A received an investment proposal from Mr. B, whom he had always known. Mr. B persuaded Mr. A that his acquaintance, Mr. C, had a good investment case. Mr. A, who accepted the offer, transferred 40 million won to Mr. B, and on the same day, Mr. B re-delivered the amount to Mr. C. Afterwards, Mr. A received approximately 1.5 million won on three occasions from Mr. C. The problem began to arise when Mr. C did not pay the money due to worsening profitability. Accordingly, Mr. A filed a loan claim lawsuit against Mr. B, claiming that 40 million won was lent to Mr. B, who was said to be investing, and that Mr. B had an obligation to repay it. During this trial, Mr. A emphasized that he had sent the amount directly to Mr. B's account, and argued that the 1.5 million won handed over by Mr. C was merely a portion of the investment proceeds received as loan interest. However, Mr. B's position was different. Mr. B refuted that the 40 million won should be viewed as an ‘investment’ rather than a loan. He argued that there were no documents to prove the fact of the loan, such as an IOU, and that the 1.5 million won was money received in exchange for investment profits, not loan interest. Judge Kim Young-soo of the Seoul Central District Court, who heard this case, ruled against the plaintiff and ruled in favor of Mr. B. Judge Kim Young-soo said the reason for the ruling was that “no documents such as an IOU were prepared to confirm the existence of a return of principal or an interest agreement, and that the plaintiff did not know the details of the agreement regarding the interest rate or amount of interest.” He pointed out that “the defendant did not make a specific claim and that the defendant immediately transferred the entire amount to Mr. C after receiving the plaintiff’s money.” Judge Kim Young-soo continued, “The plaintiff also received 1.5 million won from Mr. C,” and ruled, “Considering that the amount received was not constant and the timing of receipt was not regular, it is difficult to regard it as interest.” Bae Jun-mo, an attorney at Daeryun Law Firm (Limited) who represented defendant B in this lawsuit, said, “He borrowed the money.” In order to make a claim, you must also prove that fact. Mr. A initially claimed that there was no set date for the return of the principal, but then changed his statement to say that he would receive it back along with the profits a year later,” he explained. “Taking all of these facts together, it appears that the court did not determine it to be a loan.” [View full article] - ‘I gave it as investment money, but return the borrowed money’...

He appealed to the prosecution after being found not guilty in the first trial... 2nd trial court: “There was no intention to commit fraud” A woman in her 20s, who was indicted on charges of collecting and delivering cash from voice phishing victims, was found not guilty in the first trial and also in the appeal trial. On the 15th, the Incheon District Court’s 2-1 Criminal Division dismissed the prosecutor’s appeal and maintained the first trial acquittal at the appellate trial of Mr. A, in his 20s, who was indicted on charges of fraud, forgery of official documents, and use of forged official documents. In 2022, he served as a cash collection agent for a voice phishing organization and was put on trial on charges of receiving and delivering 120 million won from six victims. He was also accused of printing false official documents in the name of the Financial Services Commission and distributing them to some of the victims. During the trial, Mr. A claimed that there was no intention to commit fraud. It is said that a voice phishing gang member posing as an employee of an auction company saw Mr. A's resume posted on a job search site and offered him a job first. He also emphasized that the recruitment process, including submitting a resume and writing an employment contract, was no different from other companies, so there could be no suspicion. In addition, Mr. A paid taxi fare with his card while moving to collect cash at the time, and revealed his real name to the victims, which proved that Mr. A did not recognize his actions as a crime. The first trial court found Mr. A not guilty in October of last year and dismissed all related claims for compensation. At the time, the court explained, “The defendant was given the main task of ‘delivering auction-related documents and payments’ by company officials,” and “There is ample room for misunderstanding that this is the work handled by an actual auction company.” He added, “Also, the defendant did not confirm each other’s identities when meeting with the victims, and was never instructed by company officials to tell false information.” It added, “It is highly likely that the defendant was also used as a tool to carry out voice phishing crimes.” The prosecution appealed this, but The judgment of the second trial court was the same as the original trial. The appellate court said, “It is possible that the defendant simply perceived that he was working outside the company as part of an auction company.” He also said, “The daily allowance received by Mr. A does not appear to be a large enough amount to warrant risking criminal punishment for participating in a voice phishing crime, and the printing of false official documents in the name of the Financial Services Commission is also judged to have been carried out under the impression that it was simply an order from the company.” Lawyer Jang Ho-cheol of Daeryun (Limited) Law Firm, who represented Mr. A, said, “In the case of Mr. A, he had not experienced a proper social life after graduating from high school,” he explained. “Therefore, he was not at all aware that he was involved in a specific crime called voice phishing. It appears that the court also took this into consideration and decided that it was not intentional.” [View full article] - ‘Voice phishing collection plan’, woman in her 20s, found not guilty in first trial and then appeal… Why?

How do legal professionals feel these changes? We asked Cho Kyeong-hee, an attorney who graduated from the Department of Sociology at Korea University and has been working as a family law lawyer for seven years, about the recent divorce patterns and litigation process. - Typical reasons for divorce are: “The reasons for divorce are largely divided into two. One is ‘personality differences’, and the other is ‘the spouse’s fault.’ Grounds for fault include assault, verbal abuse, and cheating. Cheating, to put it simply, is infidelity. Among these, a spouse’s cheating most often leads to a divorce lawsuit.” - Divorce at twilight is on the rise. “The reasons for divorce are different and complex for each couple, so it is difficult to pinpoint one single reason. Many problems accumulate over a long period of time, and the relationship between couples becomes very bad. However, I believe that the recent increase in divorce at twilight is because the social perception of divorce has changed compared to the past. In the past, divorced female spouses were stigmatized as ‘divorced people.’ In many cases, it was difficult to live alone. However, now, the fact that they are divorced or that women are living alone “There has been a social consensus that it is not strange to start a family, and the number of men filing for divorce has also increased, and it appears that many of our clients are in their 50s and 60s.” - Does the divorce process vary by age group? "I don't think age itself is a variable in the litigation process. Instead, the litigation pattern varies greatly depending on whether the couple planning to divorce has minor children or not. If there are minor children, custody battles often prolong. Because of the costs required for raising children, custody has a significant impact on property division. The main purpose of property division is to determine who contributed how much to forming and maintaining the couple's property and to liquidate it. However, civil law According to Article 839-2, not only ‘liquidation factors’ but also ‘support factors’ are considered in property division. The responsibility for childcare that will be borne in the future is one of the ‘support factors’ considered in property division. That is why it is an important issue to determine who will raise the children in the future.” - As for the process of designating parental rights and custody, "In the past, because of the atmosphere that the child should be raised by the mother, custody in divorce cases often went to the mother. However, recently, the court comprehensively judges various factors to determine who is appropriate as a caregiver and *parental authority. The number of cases where a father is designated as a parental authority is increasing. The court first considers the attachment relationship between the parent and the child. Even if the spouse is at fault, the relationship with the child is close and it is expected that it will not cause harm to the child in the future. In order to determine the child's attachment relationship, the court evaluates the parent's 'main custody period' and 'the role played in child rearing during the marriage.' If necessary, the judge may also consider the interview negotiation in the court's decision to determine the parent's financial ability and ability to live alone with the child. Lastly, the child’s will is important when determining parental rights and custody.” - One thing to keep in mind when deciding on a divorce lawsuit is, "A divorce lawsuit usually takes about a year to a year and a half for one instance. And during the lawsuit, you have to pay a considerable amount of money to hire a lawyer. Of course, if you receive alimony through a lawsuit, you can cover the costs and officially confirm the other party's fault. It is one way to heal the wound. However, there are many stresses that you feel when you proceed with a lawsuit in earnest, so if you do not want to go through this mental pain, consider divorce by agreement or mediation. I think you can consider an alternative. Divorce by agreement is a form of negotiation between the parties without the assistance of a representative, and as difficult as it is, there are clients who want financial compensation, and there are also people who want to secure custody in some way, so they have to decide what is most important to them and what they can and cannot give up in the process. “You may regret it greatly after your relationship with your child becomes distant, so I hope you set a goal to protect the things that are most precious to you and cannot be sacrificed to the other person.” [View full article] - Understanding Divorce Common Sense (Go here) 2026-05-13T16:48:26.781Z https://www.daeryunlaw.com/en/broadcast/4170 Law&Biz, Korea Economic Daily's legal and law firm media, will brief you on law firm industry news on the 22nd.

Two people who appeared to be lovers left without paying after ordering food such as sweet and sour pork and dandan noodles. The store owner, who reported the damage on an Internet bulletin board, expressed his anger, saying that although he had reported it to the police, he had not yet caught the culprit. The number of so-called ‘eat-and-run’ incidents is steadily increasing. According to statistics from the National Police Agency, the number of reports of drunken driving and free riding last year was 120,818, breaking the highest number in the past 10 years. This year, a total of 63,729 reports were counted as of June, which is expected to be similar to or increase from the previous year. Eatless food refers to the act of eating food sold at a store or restaurant and then not paying for it. In general, under the Misdemeanor Punishment Act, a fine of less than 100,000 won, detention, or minor fine is imposed. This applies to cases where you mistakenly thought you had paid for food or forgot to pay for it. It also includes cases in which the person fully intends to pay but realizes late that he or she is unable to pay, such as because he or she left his or her wallet behind or is short of cash. However, if the person did not intend to pay for the food from the beginning, he or she is subject to criminal punishment. This is a crime of fraud under the criminal law and can be punished by imprisonment for up to 10 years or a fine of up to 20 million won. However, except in cases where the amount of damage is large or if the damage is intentional or habitual, the punishment is mostly a misdemeanor. If you have suffered damage due to illegal drunkenness, it is most important to first secure CCTV footage. Also, it is best to leave used items or dishes as they are without moving or washing them. If the scene is preserved, the effort required to collect evidence can be reduced and the case can be resolved faster. Once the culprit is arrested, it is only necessary to decide whether to reimburse the amount of damage and reach an agreement. If an agreement has not been reached or if the amount of damage is large and additional business losses have occurred, you can file a claim for damages through a civil lawsuit. If you are a store owner seeking criminal punishment, you must secure evidence to prove the most important ‘intention.’ With the help of experts, efforts should be made to explain the circumstances of the damage and identify the cause of liability based on evidence such as CCTV footage and statements from witnesses nearby. If intentionality is proven, punishment for fraud becomes possible. Conversely, a person may commit an act of illegally stealing by mistake. In this case, it is impossible to explain the crime simply by emphasizing the injustice. You must establish a strategy to avoid criminal punishment and lower the settlement amount as much as possible by demonstrating your ability and intention to pay based on objective data such as bank accounts or statements from people around you. Therefore, even in this case, it is important to come up with an effective response plan through consultation with experts.

The Seoul Western District Court announced on the 21st that it ruled to dismiss the plaintiff's claim in the building delivery lawsuit filed by the trust company against tenant A on the 18th of last month. Person A, who rented an officetel in Seoul, received a notice from the trust company in February this year to hand over the room being rented. Previously, this officetel was surrounded by real estate surrounding the building. A collateral trust contract was signed, and the building owner transferred ownership to a trust company in 2018 and received a loan from a financial institution. Afterwards, the owner signed a lease contract with Mr. A for room 201, one of the 16 rooms of the officetel, in 2021. Then, based on the deposit received from Mr. A, part of the loan was repaid and the transfer of ownership for room 201 was completed. However, room 202 on the same floor is still owned by the trust company. It was owned by the owner, but the disposal process began when the owner failed to repay the loan. The problem arose when the number written on the door plate and the number on the building status map did not match. Mr. A's room was number 201 on the door plate, but it was written as room 202 on the building status map. Based on this, the trust company claimed that the ownership was theirs. However, Mr. A signed a contract with the owner and moved in, saying that room 201 shown on the front door was the trust company. He countered that there was no ownership and claimed that he had no obligation to hand over the room. The court ruled in favor of Mr. A, saying, “The landlord and Mr. A recognized the contracted room as room 201 indicated on the door,” and “the tenants of other rooms also formed a legal relationship based on the door plate.” At the same time, “the plaintiff also obtained legal rights by filing a request for delivery of the building to the tenant of room 202 on the door plate (201 on paper) in the past.” The ruling ruled, “Because the building officials, including the plaintiff, divided ownership according to the number indicated on the door, ownership cannot be considered established according to the documents.” Lawyer Joo Hyeon-do of Daeryun Law Firm, who was in charge of legal representation for Mr. A, said, “The reason the building status map and the door plate do not match is because the door plate was attached differently from the time of construction.” He added, “The tenants, including Mr. A, only signed a contract as indicated on the door, and it is difficult to hold the plaintiff responsible for this. “There is a responsibility to correct it,” he explained.

The Changwon District Court cited the plaintiff’s claim in a lawsuit filed by building owner A against commercial tenants B and C last October. In June 2022, a lease agreement was signed with Mr. B for a commercial building. A month later, at Mr. B's request, the tenant's name was changed to Mr. C, but the two people were actually running the mall together. The problem arose when the tenants did not pay monthly rent for a year due to the building environment after signing the contract. Accordingly, Mr. A filed a suit for eviction based on the clause in the contract stating that the lease agreement can be terminated if the rent is not paid twice. However, the tenants argued that since Mr. A did not comply with his obligation to provide information, he was also not obligated to pay the monthly rent. The claim is that sufficient information about the building was not provided at the time of signing the contract. They emphasized that due to the lack of facilities such as kitchens and septic tanks necessary for operating a restaurant inside the shopping mall, expansion construction was inevitable, which resulted in damages such as additional costs and delays in business days. They also pointed out that when it rained, water leaked into the building and dirt and garbage flowed in, and Mr. A did not take any action to deal with this. At the same time, Mr. A's suit for delivery of the building was an abuse of power and requested that the lawsuit be withdrawn. In response, Mr. A countered that the tenants had confirmed the condition of the building at the time of signing the contract. It was explained that the contract stipulated that the building would be rented in its current condition, and that the expansion work was also something promised when the tenant's name was changed to Mr. C. The court ruled in Mr. A's favor. The court said, “The defendant’s claim that there is no obligation to pay monthly rent can be understood in light of the damage caused, such as construction costs and rainwater inflow,” but said, “The tenants must have thoroughly inspected the building, given that they promoted expansion construction out of necessity at the time of the contract.” He continued, “The contract also includes a provision for renting as is.” It ruled, “In view of these factors, it is difficult to say that Mr. A did not fulfill his obligation to provide information about the building.” He was representing Mr. A in this case. Attorney Jong-Hoon Han of Daeryun Law Firm (Limited) said, “During the construction process, it was agreed that the tenant would bear the costs and the landlord would have all rights thereto,” and added, “The tenants proceeded with the construction through agreement with Mr. A as needed, so the argument that they suffered damage due to lack of proper information is not persuasive.” [View full article] - Tenant who did not pay rent, claiming that he did not comply with his landlord obligations... “The building must be returned” (Shortcut) 2026-05-12T03:22:05.450Z https://www.daeryunlaw.com/en/broadcast/4152 Daeryun Law Firm (Limited) announced on the 20th that it has signed an MOU with the Youth Knowledge Convergence Association.

Kim In-won, Head of Detective Group, Collaborating with Experts in Evidence Investigation and Digital Forensics, "Daeryun Specialized Attorney is Giving Clients Overall Advice on Investigation and Trial Procedures" While so-called 'deepfake sex crimes', in which other people's faces are synthesized and distributed in pornography, are on the rise, Daeryun Criminal Group at Law Firm (Limited) announced on the 19th that it launched a cybercrime team last month to respond to cybersex crimes. The cybercrime team is collaborating with the affiliated digital forensics center. We plan to actively assist in the collection of evidence related to deepfake videos. A large number of professional lawyers with extensive relevant experience have been deployed to the cyber crime team to strengthen the deepfake sex crime response system. In particular, professional lawyers with an average of more than 20 years of legal experience lead the way, including Kim In-won, head of the criminal group, a former chief prosecutor at the Seoul Northern District Prosecutors' Office, Park Seong-dong, a former Seoul High Prosecutors' Office chief prosecutor and police officer, Ahn Seung-jin, a former Gwangju High Prosecutors' Office chief prosecutor, and Park Ji-young, a former Incheon District Prosecutors' Office. Lawyer Shin Yong-hoon and Cho Seong-geun, who specialize in criminal and sexual crime cases, will also join the group. First, Group Leader Kim took on many cases related to sexual crimes during his time as chief prosecutor, and is a sex crime lawyer with a high success rate in cases such as rape, quasi-rape, forcible molestation, and possession of sexually exploitative materials. Attorney Park is a former police officer who went through the Seoul Metropolitan Police Agency's Investigation Department and Intelligence and Foreign Affairs Department and is a lawyer who has experience in both police and prosecutorial investigative procedures. Attorney Ahn also specializes in violent cases such as sexual violence and drugs, and is a competent person who has even received a commendation from the Prosecutor General. Cyber ​​sex crimes such as deepfake are serious crimes punishable by up to 5 years in prison or a fine of up to 50 million won under the Special Act on the Punishment of Sexual Violence Crimes. In particular, if you produce or distribute for profit, you will be subject to aggravated punishment, and security measures such as employment restrictions and disclosure of personal information may also be imposed. In particular, caution is required in that even if you did not produce illegally filmed material, you can be punished just for possessing, distributing, or sharing it. As such, collecting evidence is key in cyber sex crime cases. This is because in many cases, tracking is impossible due to closed distribution channels. Accordingly, the Daeryun Cyber ​​Crime Team deploys specialized personnel to collect relevant evidence. Among the collected data, we plan to provide overall assistance, including selecting data that can be submitted to investigative agencies and deleting and converting sensitive information. In addition, existing mock investigation and court systems will also be actively utilized. The policy is to provide close legal representation throughout all procedures, from the police investigation stage to the trial. Group Leader Kim explained, "Daeryun's professional lawyers provide clients with general advice on investigation and trial procedures," and added, "Through simulation, we help them express their opinions without being embarrassed in real situations." Regarding simple possession and sharing of illegal videos, Group Manager Kim said, "Unlike sex crimes that took place face-to-face in the past, cyber sex crimes are not limited by time and space. “Punishment standards are also changing in line with evolving crimes,” he said. “The cyber crime team will provide customized assistance to victims by helping them collect evidence and collecting extenuating circumstances to perpetrators.” [View full article]Dalian - Daeryun Law Firm responds to 'deepfake sex crimes'...

Seoul Gwanak Police Station announced on the 18th that Mr. A, a man accused of violating the Animal Protection Act on the 1st, was found 'not guilty'. Mr. A received a cat from Mr. B through a website last May. The adopted cat had frequent toileting mistakes due to changes in the environment, and Mr. A contacted Mr. B to inform him of this fact and began training. However, a few weeks later, Mr. B suddenly announced his intention to cancel the sales contract and took the cat away. Afterwards, he claimed that Mr. A had abused him and demanded payment for treatment. Mr. A completely denied the charges. He said that he raised the cat in a clean residence and provided all necessary items such as water supply, food, and a toilet. He also refuted the claims of abuse. Previously, Mr. B submitted a photo of the cat with injuries to the police as evidence of abuse. In response, Mr. A responded to this. The side claimed, "The wound was not visible at all on the outside, so we were not aware of it, and it is highly likely that it was a wound that existed before the sale." Regarding the case, the police decided not to forward it to the prosecution, saying, "There is not enough evidence to acknowledge the charge of violating the Animal Protection Act." Lee Eui-seok, a lawyer at Daeryun Law Firm (Limited), who represented Mr. He explained, "Not only did Mr. A not abuse the cat, but he also complied with his protection obligations as a caregiver by providing water, food, and living space, so there is no possibility of violating the Animal Protection Act." He added, "The investigative agency also appears to have accepted this claim." [View full article] - Man accused of 'cat abuse', acquitted of charges. Why?

The bereaved family applied for survivor benefits from the Korea Workers' Compensation and Welfare Service, but the corporation requested the money back a year and a half later, claiming that he was not an employee under the Labor Standards Act. At the end of the lawsuit, the court ruled in favor of the bereaved family. This is Reporter Hyeon Ye-seul. [Report] In June 2021, a cleaning worker in her 50s was seen outside the building by her mother-in-law. While washing a window, he fell 8 meters and died. The rope of the simple chair he was hanging on broke. The bereaved family received 160 million won, including bereaved family benefits and funeral expenses, from the Korea Workers' Compensation and Welfare Service in recognition of Mr. Jang's work-related accident. However, a year and a half later, the Korea Workers' Compensation and Welfare Service issued a decision to collect unfair profits and demanded the return of 160 million won. Mr. Jang received compensation from a subcontractor. He is a worker who receives daily wages, and a reinvestigation by the Ministry of Employment and Labor found that he does not qualify as an employee under the Labor Standards Act. The bereaved family objected and filed a lawsuit, but the court ruled in favor of the bereaved family. The Seoul Administrative Court ruled, "Under the Labor Standards Act, workers must consider whether they provided labor to the employer in a dependent relationship for which wages are the purpose rather than in the form of an employment contract, etc." At the same time, during the Labor Office's initial investigation, "there was also a statement from a company official that he gave work instructions directly to Mr. Jang." He explained, "It corresponds to a worker who provides labor according to the company's instructions and is eligible for compensation." [Bang In-tae/Attorney: "They are starting to apply a more precise standard (to workers), meaning that if they can be evaluated as being within the scope of management's control in terms of social and commercial norms, they should be considered workers."] The court also said that even if Mr. Jang was not subject to the subcontractor's employment rules or service regulations, it can be said that he is 'not a worker' based on those circumstances alone. He said he couldn't do it. This is Hyun Ye-seul from KBS News.

Consumer Litigation Court recommends that Yanolja and the hotel pay half of the claimed amount. Yanolja, which refused to refund the reservation deposit, will now refund the reservation deposit. The court found Yanolja's rule that refunds are only possible when cancellation is made within 10 minutes of payment through the accommodation app as unfair. On the 14th, the Seoul Central District Court issued a decision recommending a settlement ordering Yanolja and one other person (hotel) to pay half of the plaintiff's claim amount. The deadline for payment is the 20th of this month. Plaintiff A, who filed the lawsuit, purchased a hotel accommodation ticket through the Yanolja app in October 2023, but tried to cancel the accommodation contract because the schedule was changed in two hours. Yanolja responded to the plaintiff, saying, “It is possible to cancel the reservation, but a cancellation fee equivalent to 100% of the reservation deposit will be incurred.” In fact, cancellation was impossible. Mr. A requested a refund again, citing that not much time had passed, but Yanolja took the position, "No cancellation fee will be incurred only if cancellation is made within 10 minutes of the reservation, and if cancellation is made after that, no refund is possible without any exception." The court recommended, "Pay half of the plaintiff's claim amount by the 20th of this month, but if the deadline is exceeded, delay damages at 12% per annum should be added and paid." The industry believes that the court is essentially acknowledging that Yanolja's regulations are a violation of the Electronic Commerce Act. It was judged that the rule that a full refund is only possible when canceled on the application screen within 10 minutes of payment and that a 100% cancellation fee is charged after 10 minutes was unfair was not fair. Attorney Kim Jin-woo of Daeryun Law Firm, who represented the lawsuit, said, "I understand that if a refund is made with a short period of time left before the reservation date, Yanolja will not have time to resell the product, but 10 minutes is too short," and "Cancellation only within 10 minutes is extremely difficult for the seller." “It is an advantageous and unfavorable condition for consumers,” he explained.

There have been several movements to legalize tattoos, but each time they have failed to pass the National Assembly threshold. However, with the re-enactment of the ‘Tattoo Judiciary Act’, attention is focused on whether to allow unlicensed procedures. Currently, non-medical tattoo procedures are illegal. This is because the Supreme Court defined tattooing as a medical practice in 1992, and its impact has continued to this day. At the time, the Supreme Court considered tattooing to be an activity that could pose health and hygiene risks if not performed by a medical professional. Accordingly, tattooing by an unlicensed tattoo operator constitutes a violation of Article 27, Paragraph 1 of the Medical Service Act (imprisonment for not more than 5 years or a fine of not more than 50 million won) and Article 5, Paragraph 1 of the Special Measures Act on the Control of Health Crimes (imprisonment for life or more than 2 years, a fine of not less than 1 million won but not more than 10 million won). However, as the demand for cosmetic procedures such as eyebrow tattooing has recently increased, there has been continued criticism that there is a large gap between the law and reality. According to the Ministry of Health and Welfare's '2023 Survey Results Report on the Status of Tattoo Users', more than half of the people who have received tattoos or semi-permanent makeup responded that 'non-medical personnel should be allowed to perform tattoos.' As social discussions surrounding the legalization of tattoo procedures continue, a public participation trial in this regard was held in May. The Daegu District Court sentenced Mr. A (24), a tattooist, to one year in prison, two years of probation, and a fine of 1 million won for giving eyebrow tattooing to a customer even though he was not qualified to be a medical professional. The jury at the time was made up of seven members of the general public, four of whom found guilty and the remaining three found not guilty. The jury and court sided with the prosecution's argument that eyebrow tattooing was a ‘medical practice.’ However, some lower courts ruled not guilty, which went against existing Supreme Court precedents. The Eastern Branch of the Busan District Court found not guilty a woman in her 20s who was indicted on charges of performing semi-permanent makeup without a medical license in December last year. At the time, the court ruled, "A whopping 30 years have passed since the Supreme Court's mainstream ruling on eyebrow surgery. As of 2018, the cumulative number of people who have experienced semi-permanent makeup is 10 million. In particular, 'eyebrow tattooing' has become common regardless of age and gender," and ruled, "Illegalization actually promotes illegality and danger and threatens the public's health." Even before this, in the Cheongju District Court in 2022, both the first and second trials found the director of a beauty academy who performed eyebrow tattooing not guilty. Ultimately, confusion is expected to continue for the time being as conflicting rulings have been issued within the legal community regarding the permission of unlicensed procedures. In particular, as the Supreme Court is currently conducting an en banc hearing on another tattoo case, it remains to be seen whether a decision will be made that will overturn the existing precedent. However, as the tattoo operator's practice was recently found guilty through a public participation trial, caution is still needed regarding unlicensed tattoo practice. For this reason, if you are in a situation where related charges have been applied, it can be said that the best alternative is to get help from an expert.

Crossroads in allowing unlicensed procedures (Go here) 2026-05-13T15:35:01.886Z https://www.daeryunlaw.com/en/broadcast/4117 Recently, in order to avoid women's false accusation of sexual violence, an application (app) that specifies mutual consent before sexual intercourse has emerged, raising interest and concerns. Along with the expectation that ‘reckless and false accusation crimes will disappear’, there are also concerns that ‘there are concerns about sexual violence caused by forced consent.’ This app, which was launched last July, is advertised as being the first in Korea to have been consulted by a lawyer, and has recorded more than 1,000 downloads to date despite being a paid service. However, it is difficult to prove ‘voluntary consent’, so recognition of its effectiveness is uncertain. The 'Sexual Relations Agreement' on the app contains the following: 'In concluding this contract, the proposer (A) and the acceptor (A) agree to mutual skinship and sexual relations.' Here, skinship is defined as 'covering all conversations and physical contact using sexual expressions.' The idea is that if the app user sends a consent form to the other person's cell phone and the other person verifies it, they are considered to have consented to sexual intercourse and cannot be held responsible in the future. In other words, it is a device to prevent legal controversies that may arise in the future by leaving evidence that both parties agreed to sexual relations. Does this kind of mutual agreement have legal effect in criminal cases such as sexual assault? To conclude, this app may be useful in the sense that it leaves behind evidence that it was not sexual assault, but it does not seem easy to receive complete legal immunity simply by consenting through the app. Kim Dong-jin, a lawyer at Daeryun Law Firm who spoke with Segye Ilbo on the 15th, advised, “I don’t think I will be able to receive complete immunity legally, but I think it will have some effect.” Attorney Kim said, "We need to look at two perspectives," and added, "Assault or threats are actions that go against the other person's will. If there is evidence that it was done in some way, it can be seen that it may not have been assault or threats." He explained, “Even if it is not this app, if you look at recent precedents, the number of cases where the suspect or victim has to prove it directly has increased more than before,” and “It is difficult for the suspect to reveal that the other person consented. From this perspective, if you can prove that the consent through the app was not coercive, it may be a little more helpful legally.” However, he pointed out that “complete immunity is difficult,” and added, “Even if there was consent in the app, there are cases of sexual assault by consent. When making a ruling, the court looks at everything, including whether consent is based on behavior or intent.” In other words, regardless of whether the app was used, a person can be found not guilty when it can be proven that there was no consent or coercion, so the app also needs this process. Unfortunately, if you cannot prove this, you cannot be free from the damage of false accusation. [View full article] - Will the ‘sexual consent app’ false accusation crimes disappear?

It's hard to get out of the app." Self-employed people in the restaurant industry are trying to come up with alternatives such as distributing leaflets in apartments to escape the burden of delivery app fees, but some say it is not easy. Some franchise companies are strengthening their apps to cope with the burden of delivery app fees. On the other hand, self-employed people complain that it is difficult to promote without an app. This is because the advertising effect through distributing flyers is not great, and the number of cases of being accused of distributing flyers without permission has increased compared to the past. Recently, in the self-employed community 'I'm sick, I'm the boss', a story was posted about someone who was accused of property damage after handing out flyers directly in an apartment complex to promote them in order to get out of the delivery app. Person A, who posted the story, said, "A friend who used to curse at the delivery app said he would promote it by distributing flyers, so he spread out the (apartment) complex and even got a part-time job. “I sprayed it, but two weeks later, I received a call from the management office and a warning,” he said. “Yesterday, I got a call from the police station saying that I was accused of disrupting business and damaging property. Now, it seems absolutely impossible to go back to the era of iron bags.” Comments on the post included, “There is a desire to go to the era of leaflets, but this is the era of apps,” and “The carrot advertisement is a little better.” It ran. The post said, "It is common sense to ban the unauthorized distribution of advertisements. The store's image will be lost, it will be boycotted, and a fine will be levied." There were also responses saying, "Promotion must be done within the established framework in a way that does not cause harm to others." According to Kim Da-eun, an attorney at Daeryun Law Firm, unauthorized distribution of flyers inside apartments, etc. can be punished under Article 3, Paragraph 1, Item 9 of the Misdemeanor Punishment Act. Anyone who commits acts such as arbitrarily posting advertisements on other people's or organizations' homes, artificial structures, cars, etc., will be punished with a fine of less than 100,000 won, detention, or a minor fine. In fact, even before the advent of delivery apps, there have been complaints and punishments for cases of unauthorized posting of flyers inside apartments without permission from the management office. Attorney Kim said, "Regardless of the emergence of delivery apps, there are many regulations that existed before the emergence of delivery apps, and many advertisements were attached inside apartments before the emergence of delivery apps. “It seems that there was an atmosphere of customary acceptance, so there were many people who did not even know that it was a subject of punishment,” he said. “It is true that once a complaint is made, it is difficult to avoid punishment without actively fighting it legally.” [View full article] - Fines for distributing flyers incorrectly...

Usually, a lawsuit is filed when the lessee continues to occupy the property without permission, such as late payment of rent or delivery of the object due to expiration of the contract. If the tenant occupies the property without permission and does not vacate after a just termination of the contract, the landlord is bound to suffer great economic losses. In addition, there are many cases where landlords suffer because they cannot simply demand eviction due to legal protection measures for tenants. For example, there is a story of a landlord who waited for rent payment for several months considering the tenant's circumstances. The landlord sent several letters to the tenant requesting payment of overdue rent, but did not receive any response. Accordingly, as a last resort, a lawsuit was prepared. As a result of the lawsuit, the landlord was able to safely receive a decision to hand over the building. On the 8th of last month, the Changwon District Court ruled in favor of the landlord in the 'building delivery lawsuit' filed by the commercial landlord against the tenant for non-payment of monthly rent. The court ruled that “the lease agreement between the plaintiff and the defendant was legally terminated,” and that “the defendants had an obligation to deliver the building to the plaintiff.” The issues in the lawsuit can be broadly divided into two. First, the first issue was ‘whether or not there are arrears’. The plaintiff and the defendant signed a lease agreement for the property in this case in 2020 with a rental deposit of 20 million won and a monthly rent of 1 million won. The defendants had delayed payment of rent due to financial difficulties, but the plaintiff delayed the payment date in consideration of the defendants' difficult circumstances. However, the plaintiff did not receive the monthly rent even though the promised date had passed. The increased monthly rent amounted to 9 months' worth, and the defendants did not even pay the commercial management fee. The second is the 'legitimate notice of termination of the lease'. According to Article 10, Paragraph 8 of the Commercial Lease Protection Act, if the rent arrears reach three periods, the lessor can immediately terminate the lease even if there is any remaining contract remaining. In the case of the plaintiff, the arrears had already reached the 9th period, and the termination of the contract was notified through proof of contents. As the plaintiff's legal representative, I clearly presented the legal basis for the reason for the termination of the contract and requested real estate certification based on this. Thanks to this, the plaintiff was able to have the right to claim the return of the object recognized as the owner of the property. As in the case above, it is not difficult to see difficulties due to the tenant's loss of contact in a lease contract relationship. At this time, caution is required because if an appropriate response is not taken, such as a contract termination notice or eviction request, to a tenant who illegally occupies the real estate, the landlord may face backlash, such as a claim for damages. Additionally, responding by blindly visiting the tenant or unilaterally notifying the termination without examining the contract termination conditions may become an obstacle to legal action in the future. Typically, real estate litigation can take several months, so it is necessary to draw up a strategy from the beginning with the advice of a real estate attorney.

Judge Moon Jong-cheol, Criminal Division 7 of the Incheon District Court, sentenced A, a woman accused of fraud, to 10 months in prison, 2 years of probation, and ordered her to perform 120 hours of community service. Ms. A is a BJ on a streaming platform. He was accused of embezzling 78 million won from his ex-boyfriend, Mr. B, from March 2022 to June of the following year. They dated since 2016 and broke up around 2019. Three years later, Mr. A contacted Mr. B again and began demanding money, saying, “I need money due to unreasonable business.” Afterwards, Mr. A told Mr. B, “You can just get married and live together and pay it back.” He even urged me to take out a loan. However, at the time, it was revealed that Mr. A was already married to a man other than Mr. B. The court ruled that Mr. A's actions were intentional. The court pointed out that “the defendant deceived the victim into thinking that he was in a romantic relationship with the victim on the premise of marriage,” and that it was “a crime that took advantage of a personal relationship of trust.” He then said, “The period of the crime was long, the amount of damage was not small, and the damage was not fully recovered.” However, the court added that it decided the sentence by taking into account the fact that Mr. A acknowledged and reflected on his crime and the fact that he reached an agreement with Mr. B. Daeryun Law Firm (Yuhan), which served as Mr. B’s legal representative, said, “Mr. “This is a typical case of a romance scam,” he said. He added, “He stole a large amount of money by taking advantage of the victim’s favor towards him in a situation where he had no ability or will to repay, so it clearly constitutes fraud under the criminal law.” He added, “It appears that the court also acknowledged this and found him guilty.” [View full article] - "I'm planning to register my marriage"...

Shaking up the distribution industry, strengthening the franchise team within the corporate legal group... Daeryun Law Firm announced on the 12th that it has strengthened the franchise team within its corporate law group in preparation for the aftermath of Korea Pizza Hut's franchise fee differential lawsuit. Previously, the Seoul High Court ruled in favor of the plaintiffs in a lawsuit filed by Korea Pizza Hut franchise owners against the headquarters in September last year to claim the return of unfair profits. It was unfair for the headquarters to supply essential items such as raw and subsidiary materials without the consent of franchisees at a price difference. This is the purpose. Pizza Hut Korea, which is in danger of having to return more than 21 billion won in franchise fees, recently applied to the court to initiate rehabilitation procedures. Although the Supreme Court's final judgment is still pending, this lawsuit has caused great confusion in the franchise industry. This is because a significant number of franchise headquarters in Korea are making profits by charging differential franchise fees. In fact, it is known that franchise owners of some franchise companies are preparing related lawsuits. Daeryun announced its policy to reorganize the franchise team within the corporate legal group to reflect this industry situation and actively respond to related lawsuits. The franchise team is comprised of lawyers specializing in various fields, led by attorney Won-il Won, a former judge at the Seoul Central District Court and former head of the legal department at POSCO Future M. Attorney Won-sang Kim, who represented franchise owners in the Pizza Hut unfair profit refund lawsuit, The team is supported by lawyers Na Chang-soo, Shin Jong-soo, Park Seong-yoon, Kim Da-eun, Park Jong-woo, and Jeong Woo-young. They plan to provide higher quality legal services based on their experience working in various related organizations such as the Korea Fair Trade Mediation Service and the Franchise Business Dispute Mediation Committee. Won Hyeong-il, head of the Daeryun Corporate Legal Group, said, "It is expected that many similar lawsuits will be filed in the aftermath of the Korea Pizza Hut incident." “We strengthened the team by bringing in additional lawyers with experience,” he explained. Won-sang Kim, a lawyer from the franchise team who actually participated in the Korea Pizza Hut lawsuit, said, “The gist of the court’s ruling is that franchise fees that are not agreed upon in advance are unfair profits.” He added, “Both the franchise owner and the franchise headquarters need to understand these issues well and establish a customized strategy.” He added, “The Daeryun franchise team has completed legal preparations to respond to any case.” added.

On September 30, the Seoul Central District Court ruled in favor of the plaintiff in a lawsuit filed by customer A against the credit card company to confirm the non-existence of debt. Mr. A, who was running a business, belatedly found out in 2021 that an employee had stolen his name and had been issued a credit card. As a result of checking the usage history with the credit card company, a balance of approximately 28 million won was accumulated for Mr. A. Mr. A denied the fact that the card was issued. It is said that the employee was issued a card using his/her own mobile phone and ID card. Therefore, it was argued that there was no obligation to repay the usage fee. However, the credit card company's position was different. It is confirmed that a direct phone call was made with Mr. A at the time of signing the contract, and that the card was delivered to Mr. A's workplace. In addition, he emphasized that the employee's unauthorized use of the credit card was caused by Mr. A's careless management of personal information and that he had an obligation to repay the debt. The court ruled in Mr. A's favor. The court said, “If you look at the call records submitted by the credit card company, the voice in the recording does not match the voice of Mr. A,” adding, “Rather, he is closer to an employee impersonating Mr. A.” At the same time, he explained that “the address to which the card was sent is not Mr. A’s place of business but the employee’s residence,” and that it cannot be considered that Mr. A entered into a contract directly. At the same time, “as long as the credit card contract for the plaintiff is not valid, the ‘management negligence’ claimed by the card company does not materialize,” and ruled, “there is no debt for the use of the credit card in question.” Lee Ki-eun, an attorney at Daeryun Law Firm (Limited), who represented the plaintiff, said, “The card company acted legally when issuing credit cards. “You must verify your identity according to the procedures,” he said. “When issuing a card, you must carefully consider whether the person requesting issuance is the one who received it.” Attorney Lee added, “Due to the credit card company’s mistake, the credit card was issued and delivered to an employee, not Mr. A.” He added, “In addition, we were able to obtain a reasonable result by taking into account the fact that the employee acknowledged that he had obtained and used the card by stealing Mr. A’s name.” [View full article] - A card secretly created by an employee...

With the rapid growth of the e-commerce market, the role of e-commerce platforms is becoming more important. However, legal issues arising from transactions brokered by platforms, especially disputes related to payment and consumer protection, continue to appear in a more complex manner. In particular, as various controversies, including payment delays, consumer refund issues, and platform financial instability, have frequently occurred recently, we met with Kim Yu-jeong, an attorney who is active in the e-commerce field, and asked about legal disputes between platforms and users. Please introduce yourself. As a member of Daeryun Law Firm's Fair Trade Group, I carry out litigation and advisory work in the fields of e-commerce and fair trade. It mainly deals with various legal issues, including disputes that arise in e-commerce platforms, especially payment issues between the platform and platform users. Please explain the transaction brokerage process of the e-commerce platform. When a consumer pays for a product registered by a seller on an e-commerce platform, the platform does not pay the money directly to the seller but deposits it with a payment agency such as a credit card company. After the transaction is completed by the seller delivering the product or providing the service, the platform settles the deposited amount to the seller. If a consumer files a complaint about a product, the platform mediates the dispute and proceeds with the refund or exchange process. At this time, the paid amount is refunded to the consumer through the payment agency. During this process, the platform manages transactions between sellers and consumers and adjusts their respective rights and obligations. This method can be seen as forming a structure that repeatedly creates and destroys debt relationships between sellers and consumers. How is damage compensated for e-commerce platform users? E-commerce platform users refer to consumers who purchase products or services and sellers who sell them. If an e-commerce platform does not settle payments to sellers or provide promised services to consumers, users can raise issues through the platform's own customer support center. However, if it is difficult to resolve the issue because the platform does not respond properly, the user may report it to the Fair Trade Commission (hereinafter referred to as the Fair Trade Commission), and the Fair Trade Commission may issue a corrective order or impose a fine. In particular, in the case of consumers, it is also possible to file a lawsuit for damages against the platform in accordance with Article 17 of the Act on Consumer Protection in Electronic Commerce, etc. (hereinafter referred to as the Electronic Commerce Act). What do you think about the recent ‘Timon-WeMakePrice incident’? The Timon-WeMakePrice incident clearly reveals the financial instability of e-commerce platforms and the resulting vulnerability to consumer protection, and suggests the need to legally clarify the platform’s responsibility as a transaction intermediary. This is because when a platform fails to fulfill its role, the damage goes directly to the consumer. In particular, I think the biggest problem is the lack of legal mechanisms in a situation that reduces trust between consumers and sellers. Accordingly, it is necessary to mandate transparency of the platform's financial status and fund flow and to establish a specific system to protect consumers. How is the legal responsibility for the issue of an e-commerce platform's inability to make payments defined? Pursuant to Articles 17 and 18 of the Electronic Commerce Act, e-commerce platforms are obligated to pay sales proceeds to sellers and respond to consumers' requests for refunds, regardless of financial status. In particular, if inaccurate information or payment delays related to payment are repeatedly provided in the process of brokering transactions between sellers and consumers, pursuant to Article 23 of the Fair Trade Act, sanctions such as a fine of up to 100 million won or a corrective order from the Fair Trade Commission may be imposed. In order to strengthen the legal responsibility of e-commerce platforms. The current E-commerce Act restricts the responsibility of e-commerce platforms, so more specific legal revisions are needed. First, to protect consumers and sellers, an institutional mechanism is needed to warn in advance about fund liquidity problems on the platform. It is also important to establish a payment guarantee system, which protects the payment amount for a certain period of time until the consumer purchases the product and the seller receives payment. In addition, specific legal supplementary measures are needed, such as preparing a plan for payment agencies, which are responsible for managing the flow of money and ensuring the stability of the payment process, to share some of the responsibility for the platform's financial problems.

A new employee will be sitting there. I regret it." Mr. A, who recently took childcare leave due to his wife's birth, complains that he is afraid of the next six months. The company said they encouraged childcare leave, but as soon as he went on leave, they immediately cleared his place and put another employee in his place. Mr. A, who heard about this situation from his colleagues, complained, “I don’t feel at peace.” This is due to the belief that there may be disadvantages in personnel management or discrimination after reinstatement. As the low birth rate and aging population become more serious, the government is trying hard to increase the birth rate by encouraging child care leave, but in some parts of our society, there are many people like Mr. A who are concerned about child care leave. In fact, on the 10th, the day before the civic group Workplace Gapjil 119, there were many people who received counseling with concerns similar to Mr. A's in the report 'Suggestions for a workplace where pregnancy, birth, and childcare are possible', which included information on the current status of power abuse and system improvement regarding childbirth and childcare. As a result of the organization's analysis of 41 identified cases among e-mail reports related to pregnancy, childbirth, and childcare abuse received from January last year to May this year, the most common type of disadvantage (duplicate counting) was 'workplace bullying' at 63.4% (26 cases). In addition, 'unfair evaluation/appointment' (31.7%, 13 cases), 'refusal to work shortened hours, etc.' (24.3%, 10 cases), 'dismissal/recommended resignation' (12.2%, 5 cases), and 'refusal to use annual leave' (12.2%, 5 cases). Eight cases of power abuse that the organization found through public recruitment also said that it was not easy to use even basic systems such as maternity leave and childcare leave. Person A said, “When I said I would use childcare leave following maternity leave, the manager was very displeased and tried to persuade me not to use the leave.” In relation to this, the organization argued, “It is difficult to solve the problem simply by improving the maternal rights system and emphasizing the necessity of ‘resolving low birth rates.’ We need to raise overall working conditions and increase the effectiveness of the system from the perspective of gender equality.” He went on to point out, “Korean society is establishing a system to protect women’s labor rights and maternal and paternal rights, but this is not properly reaching the ground level.” Daeun Kim, a lawyer at Daeryun Law Firm related to parental leave, said in a phone call with Segye Ilbo that day, “The current parental leave system is continuously being reformed according to the needs of those eligible, and as social consensus on this is increasing, some companies are starting to guarantee the parental leave system as a basic rule, but are also proactively implementing a more active system for those on parental leave.” He gave an example, “In fact, at Daeryun Law Firm, the existing parental leave system is guaranteed as standard, and in addition, work from home is also guaranteed to ensure both child care and maintenance of income level.” “Nevertheless, there has not yet been a consensus on maternal protection, so there are many companies that do not properly comply with it. As a result, sanctions against companies that do not guarantee childcare leave are becoming increasingly stronger, and the standards for determining treatment for those on childcare leave are also becoming increasingly stringent and sophisticated,” he said. “With regard to work upon reinstatement after childcare leave, it is stipulated that after the end of childcare leave, employers must return to work that pays the same or equivalent level of wages as before the leave. He pointed out that “returning to the ‘same work’ as before should be considered as a priority.” However, he said, “If there are unavoidable reasons such as organizational reorganization, it is possible to return to another job, but even in this case, it is required that the job pays the same level of wages.” He added, “Therefore, rather than waiting for a report, it would be helpful to proactively inspect whether each company is properly guaranteeing this system or to implement a system such as providing government subsidies or corporate evaluation benefits to companies that sufficiently guarantee the parental leave system, so that each company can actively guarantee parental leave on its own.” [View full article] - “As soon as I took childcare leave, my position was taken away” Parental leave is still difficult (link) 2026-05-10T22:13:47.285Z https://www.daeryunlaw.com/en/broadcast/4063 Although he had his driver's license revoked for drunk driving, an administrative judgment found that it could have been invalidated if the procedure had not been legal. The Central Administrative Appeals Commission ruled on the 11th of last month to cancel the disposition in an administrative judgment filed by driver A, who objected to the police's decision to revoke his driver's license. Mr. A received a prior notice of cancellation of his driver's license when he was caught in a drunk driving crackdown on June 4. The notice states that he must attend a nearby police station by the 24th of the same month to give his opinion. However, on the 18th, six days earlier than the opinion submission date notified by the police, Mr. A's license cancellation process was completed. Mr. A argued, "It was unfair to dispose of the case before the appearance request date." In addition, "At the bottom of the statement presented by the police, there was an additional statement stating that even if the deadline for submitting opinions had not passed, there was an additional statement acknowledging that there was no objection and agreeing to the administrative disposition." He said, "This statement is inconsistent with the Road Traffic Act. He emphasized, "This is a loss of the opportunity to express one's opinion." In relation to this, the Administrative Appeals Committee said, "There was a phrase in the notice asking whether to agree to proceed with the disposition, but this was added arbitrarily, unlike the prescribed format." It said, "It is possible that Mr. A expressed consent without fully understanding the meaning." It also said, "The Road Traffic Act does not recognize exceptions for content added arbitrarily, such as the statement text," and "Administrative dispositions made before the deadline for submitting opinions have procedural defects." "You can see it," he pointed out. Attorney Park Sang-beom of Daeryun Law Firm, who represented Mr. A, said, "The purpose of the prior notification system is to give the parties the opportunity to raise objections," and pointed out, "The police's failure to keep the deadline for submitting opinions is a violation of Article 21 of the Administrative Procedure Act." He continued, "The phrase at the bottom of the statement also shows that Mr. A, who was a suspect, could not have easily refused the police's request to express consent." “It is,” he emphasized.

When I first found out I was pregnant, my heart was full of worry. This is because lawyers, too, can never be free from career breaks due to so-called ‘pregnancy, childbirth, and childcare.’ However, contrary to expectations, the company’s response was very positive. The company conveyed that it was okay to fully focus on raising children, and thanks to the company's consideration, Attorney Kwak was able to prepare for childbirth with ease. “In fact, even if there is a system in place, if an atmosphere that is difficult to use is created, the reality is that you have no choice but to return,” said Attorney Kwak. “I was grateful that I was able to come back and work whenever I wanted even after taking a leave of absence.” Daeryun, which operates a systematic case management system to ensure no gaps in work, is contributing to the balance between work and family by implementing various maternity protection support policies. ‘Family-friendly law firm’ is one of Daeryun’s core management policies. In particular, we actively support women who are going through the process of childcare to maintain a stable corporate life and develop their careers after returning. What is worth noting is that after returning to work, we provide a variety of help to adapt to work, such as learning how to work and raise children in parallel, as well as adapting to work from senior employees. Not only that, but for employees who are worried about the economic impact of childcare leave, they have also established a 'work from home system during childcare period'. As a result of this pioneering implementation of a maternal protection policy, Daeryun's maternal protection policy is considered a role model for law firm welfare within the industry. Regarding concerns about work gaps that may occur when using the maternal protection system, a Daeryun official said, "Usually, at least 3 and up to 20 professionals are assigned to a single case," and "Chief Judge and Chief Prosecutor." “A veteran lawyer oversees the entire case, and there is a system in place where a team of professional lawyers constantly communicate and share the situation, so there are no concerns about gaps,” he said. Support for work-family balance... In the law firm industry, male lawyers and employees often do not benefit from work-family balance policies. In fact, the Korean Bar Association conducted a survey of 478 male lawyers last year, and 30% of respondents said they were unable to use maternity leave at all. Daeryun's welfare system is also open to male lawyers. Attorney Kim Tae-hwan, one of the beneficiaries of male parental leave, said, “It was useful because it encouraged people to use the maternity protection system regardless of gender. It is a necessary system for parents with young children, and guaranteeing it itself can be said to be a very good welfare.” This policy also applies to general employees, not lawyers, without exception. There are several employees who are currently using shortened working hours for childcare, as well as several employees who have returned from maternity/childcare leave and worked for more than several years. Daeryun plans to further expand the welfare system for work-family balance so that executives and employees can continue working without worrying about childbirth or childcare. Meanwhile, in addition to the current maternity protection system, Daeryun is also actively promoting employment policies for young people and middle-aged people. Regardless of gender and age, we are discovering talent with outstanding abilities in the field of support. We aim to contribute to the development of the local community and achieve sustainable growth.

In October 2021, Mr. A was indicted on charges of scratching the car of his colleague B, which was parked on the road in front of the company where he worked, with a Buddhist sharp tool, incurring repair costs worth 3 million won. The prosecution claimed guilt using CCTV footage as evidence showing Mr. A leaving the company's main gate on the day of the incident, entering the passenger side of the victim's vehicle and then coming back out. Mr. A completely denied the charges. At the time, he was returning to his car after submitting his resignation letter to the company, and he felt like someone was calling him from the company side of the wall, so he went inside for a moment to check. At the same time, Mr. A emphasized, "I usually walk to work and do not know the employees' vehicles, and on the day of the incident, I did not know that the vehicle in question belonged to Mr. B." Chief Judge Jeon A-ram of the Masan Branch of the Changwon District Court, who heard the case, said, "Even if you look at the enlarged photo of the CCTV video, you can see that the defendant was in the damaged vehicle. “I could only see the scene of him going close to the wall and coming back through the passenger side,” he said, and ruled in favor of Mr. A on the grounds that there was no direct evidence of damage to the vehicle. Chief Judge Jeon A-ram also ruled that there was insufficient evidence to reveal Mr. A’s motive for the crime. During the previous trial, Mr. B claimed that he had had several conflicts with Mr. A over work issues and had once heard threatening words from Mr. A, but Chief Judge Jeon A-ram said, “I heard threatening words. The ruling ruled, “Mr. B failed to clearly state the circumstances, and there is no evidence to acknowledge that the defendant was aware of the victim’s vehicle.” Attorney Choi Yong-hwan of Daeryun Law Firm (Limited), who represented Mr. A, said, “A summary order of fine was initially issued to Mr. A, but he actively claimed innocence by requesting a formal trial.” Attorney Choi Yong-hwan continued, “In order to be punished for property damage, ‘intention’ must be clearly proven,” and “In this case, “In this case, there was not only direct evidence of vehicle damage, but also no clear motive for the crime, and the court appears to have taken this into consideration as well,” he explained.

The Suwon District Prosecutors' Office notified Ahn, who was transferred on charges of property damage, not to be charged on the 5th due to 'insufficient evidence'. Previously, on August 8, the Yongin East Police Station in Gyeonggi Province transferred Ahn, a middle school student living in an apartment in Giheung-gu, Yongin City, to the prosecution on charges of property damage. The police said at the time It was determined that Ms. Ahn's tearing down an unauthorized post on a mirror while returning home in the elevator on May 11 constituted damage to property. However, Ms. Ahn's father later complained through the Kookmin Shinmungo, saying, "It is unfair to apply the crime of property damage to an act of removing a post on a mirror that blocks the view without any other intention." When this fact became known, the Gyeonggi Southern Police Agency, a superior agency, followed the Yongin East Division's judgment. Recognizing that there were additional matters to consider, the police directly requested a supplementary investigation from the prosecution last September, received the case back, and continued the investigation. The head of the criminal division at Yongin Eastern Police Station, who was in charge of the case, said, "As a result of the supplementary investigation, we determined that there was no intention in removing the post," and added, "We notified the prosecution of the opinion of non-transfer on the 29th of last month." “I think the mechanical application of the law that causes inconvenience is unfair,” Kim Dae-eun, a lawyer at Daeryun Law Firm who represented the middle school student, told MBC, “When I heard that he was in a situation where he would become a criminal criminal just for taking down an illegal post in an elevator, I thought that the state’s exercise of judicial power operated mechanically. I am glad that I was able to resolve the injustice of the young student.” [View full article] MBC - [Exclusive] Prosecutors, no charges in 'Yongin Apartment leaflet incident'...

With more than 110,000 users flocking to make reservations for the restaurant that won the program's final winner, buying a reservation ticket has become a challenge. In fact, a post offering to purchase a reservation for two at the restaurant for 700,000 won appeared on various second-hand trading sites. However, the original selling price was only 100,000 won, raising the seriousness of illegal ticket scalping. Such illegal ticket trading is often found in our daily lives, and occurs in a variety of ways, from sports games to famous singer concerts. As of August this year, the number of scalping transactions reported to the professional sports scalping report center was 51,405, an increase of nearly eight times compared to 6,237 in 2020. The same goes for the popular music performance field, which is most affected by ticket scalping. According to statistics from the Korea Creative Content Agency's scalper monitoring center, the number of reports of scalpers in the performance field is increasing rapidly every year, from 359 in 2020, 785 in 2021, 4,224 in 2022, and 1,973 as of October last year. The reason scalpers can run rampant regardless of field is because the punishment was extremely weak. Selling ticket tickets was classified as a misdemeanor and was punishable by a fine of less than 200,000 won, detention, or fines. However, even this imposed fines only on on-site ticket scalping and failed to punish online ticket scalpers. As a result, it was pointed out that punishment was needed for all ticket scalping activities that took place both online and offline, and discussions on revising the law began in earnest. Afterwards, the illegal sales standards were supplemented, and the Performance Act and the National Sports Promotion Act were revised in March and September. What is noteworthy here is that the punishment has been greatly strengthened. In case of scalping, the seller will be subject to imprisonment for up to one year and a fine of up to 10 million won. The government did not stop there, but also announced plans to subdivide the punishment standards by size of profit and raise the level of punishment from the current level. As awareness of social problems related to ticket circulation is being strengthened, ticket transactions through illegal channels should be avoided as much as possible. As seen earlier, ticket scalping is a punishable matter regardless of whether it is online or offline, so it is best to reserve tickets through an official ticket office if possible. Nevertheless, if you are involved in a crime, it is advisable to consult with an expert to defend against the charges.

Prosecutors said, "There was no threatening content in the note." The man who visited the house where his brothers lived several times and posted notes was handed over to the prosecution on charges of stalking, but was not indicted. The Ansan branch of the Suwon District Prosecutors' Office announced on the 18th of last month that it had decided not to indict Mr. A, who is suspected of violating the law on the punishment of stalking crimes. Mr. A will be released in 2022. For about a year and a half since November, he was investigated for allegedly going to the residence where his brothers lived and pasting notes on their front door several times. During the investigation, Mr. A denied the charges, saying, "My eldest sister was suffering from mental difficulties, but she was virtually neglected by the other brothers, and because of that, she was often seen walking around the streets, so I only visited her to check on her well-being." However, the police reported that Mr. A had the intention of stalking and handed over the case to the prosecution. It was determined that there were no charges. After reviewing the note left by Mr. A, the main reason was that it was only a message expressing concern about his sister's well-being or informing him of the date and time of the next visit and did not contain any threatening content. The prosecution also added that it appears that there was an inheritance-related dispute between the brothers over the residence in question and that the victims also took into account the fact that they had not explicitly expressed their intention not to come to the suspect until the time of reporting. Lawyer Jeong Doo-yeon of Daeryun Law Firm (Limited), who acted as legal representative for Mr. “It must be clearly proven whether the act was done without ‘reason’ and whether it was to the extent of causing ‘fear’ to the victim,” he said. “In the case of Mr. A, he was not indicted because it was emphasized that he only left a note asking how he was doing and did not engage in any threatening behavior.” He added, “As the scope of application of the stalking punishment law has expanded, stalking charges are often applied to disputes that occur between family members or neighbors.” He added, “As the social perception related to stalking has become more stringent, if you are accused of it, you must be consulted by an expert.” “We need to get help,” he emphasized.

Chief Judge Jeong-il Shin said, "He served as a cash collection agent essential to the completion of the crime... and severe punishment is inevitable." The victim's legal representative said, "The damage caused by the crime targeting the common people was extreme... This is a case that proves the intentionality of the fraud." The court sentenced a member of the voice phishing (telephone financial fraud) crime organization who was in charge of cash collection and stole about 120 million won in cash, and detained him in court. The first criminal division of the Pyeongtaek Branch of the Suwon District Court (Presiding Judge Shin Jeong-il) sentenced Mr. A, a member of a voice phishing organization, to two years and three months in prison on the 16th of last month on charges of violating the Special Act on Prevention of Damage from Telecommunications and Financial Fraud and Refund of Damages, and detained him in court. Mr. A acted as a cash collector for a voice phishing crime organization from around August to December 2023. He was charged with telecommunications financial fraud. Mr. A received tens of millions of won in cash from four people, including Mr. B, a victim who was deceived by phone lies from a voice phishing organization member, such as "This is Manager Kim Young-joo of the Financial Supervisory Service. An account in your name is involved in a crime," and "This is Prosecutor Kim Soo-gil of the Seoul Central District Prosecutors' Office. To prove that you are a victim of identity theft, I will send an employee, so deliver the cash." The total amount reached 118 million won. The Pyeongtaek branch of Suwon District Court, which heard this case, found Mr. A guilty and stated the reason for sentencing, saying, “Voice phishing is a planned and organized crime against an unspecified number of victims and continues to cause enormous damage,” and “Even if the defendant did not lead the crime, since he served as an essential cash collector for the completion of the crime, a correspondingly severe punishment is inevitable.” Attorney Lee Jong-hyun of Daeryun Law Firm (Lihan), who is the legal representative for victim B, said, "Perpetrators who stand trial for voice phishing fraud crimes are usually low-level gang members, and in these cases, they defend the charges by claiming that they had no criminal intent. However, the victims are in a situation where they are suffering so much damage due to the crime that they are unable to live their daily lives. The reality is that most of the victims are ordinary people, and it is not possible to properly recover from the damage after the crime. In this case, the victim was also defrauded of all his assets." Attorney Lee Jong-hyun continued, “In the case of the defendant in this case, he has been continuously communicating with other accomplices through SNS, and based on this, he emphasized that it was not a simple part-time job.” He added, “It appears that the court also judged that the defendant’s actions were intentional in fraud.” [View full article] - Voice phishing ‘cash collection plan’ that caused 120 million damages... ‘2 years and 3 months in prison’ · Court arrest (link) 2026-05-14T00:58:24.195Z https://www.daeryunlaw.com/en/broadcast/4028 Thanks to a ‘good dream’ she had, her husband won first place in the lottery and was asked about ownership. The expert offered consolation to the wife who sold the lucky dream at a low price, saying, “The winnings belong to the husband.” A story like this was reported on JTBC on the 4th. According to the story of this day, woman A has been leading an enviable married life with her husband B. Ms. A said that the most disappointing part is that her husband is too salty. Then one day, Ms. A had a lucky dream, and when she told this story to her husband, he said, “Sell yourself a dream.” At her husband's suggestion, Ms. A sold her dream for just a few tens of thousands of won, but her husband won first place in an instant lottery and received 1 billion won. The problem starts from this point. Mr. B hid the fact that he won the lottery. Mr. A claims that he kept it a secret not only from his parents but also from his family, and that he reduced his living expenses even more than usual and showed himself to be even more of a miser. When he told Mr. B, “Now that I have a lot of money, please buy me just one bag,” he flatly refused, saying, “This money is no good because it is retirement funds.” On the other hand, my husband was generous to his friends. Ms. A happened to meet her husband's friend while walking down the street, and the friend said she was grateful and said, "Thanks to you, I was able to put out the emergency fire." My husband lent 200 million won to a friend. Ms. A, who felt sad about this incident, ended up having a fight with her husband. Ms. A expressed her disappointment to her husband. However, the husband dismissed Ms. A’s complaint, saying, “There is no touching on the lottery winnings between married couples.” Ms. A expressed her resentment, saying, “Do I have no authority over the lottery winnings that my husband received?” Regarding this story, lawyer Kim Dong-jin of Daeryun Law Firm, who spoke to Segye Ilbo on the same day, said, “I think it would be good to look at the core in terms of causality.” He pointed out, “In our country’s sentiments, selling dreams is understandable, but there is no causal relationship with purchasing a lottery ticket.” He continued, “When looking at the contribution to winning the lottery, it is recognized if action or effort was involved in the result,” adding, “It cannot be said that you contributed simply by having a dream.” At the same time, she advised, "It is superstitious to connect dreams with winning the lottery. There is no causal relationship. The lottery winnings belong to my husband." Meanwhile, lottery winnings are not subject to property division during divorce. If you have a good dream, it would be better to buy a lottery ticket and hope to win first place rather than sell it.

(Shortcut) 2026-05-08T08:58:33.059Z https://www.daeryunlaw.com/en/broadcast/4010 According to recently released data from the Ministry of Education, the number of reports of child abuse against teachers filed from September last year to June this year was 159. The investigative agency reportedly dismissed 111 cases, or about 70% of them, without prosecution. The number of cases in which teachers were indicted was 24, accounting for 15%. As the debate surrounding ‘child abuse’ continues in the educational field, a recent Supreme Court ruling is attracting attention. The circumstances of the case are as follows. Teacher A was teaching a class on the topic ‘What to do if you’re sick’ in an elementary school classroom in 2019. At the time, the class was conducted in a way that students formed groups to discuss, and the group representative presented related content. The group that Student B belonged to decided on a presenter through rock-paper-scissors, and in this process, Student B was selected as the presenter. However, Student B, who was dissatisfied with this, sulked and did not give the presentation, and did not participate in any other activities in class afterwards. Then it was lunch time, and Teacher A ordered Student B to move to the lunch room, but Student B did not follow this. In response, Teacher A approached Student B and said, “Hey, wake up,” and attempted to pull Student B up by grabbing his arm. However, Student B was steadfast. In the end, Teacher A called Student B's mother and explained, "I can't use my strength because I'm afraid the child will get stubborn and get hurt." With the mother's consent, Teacher A left Student B in the classroom and moved to the cafeteria. The original trial court ruled that Teacher A's lifting of Student B's arms constituted an act of abuse. The reason was that discipline through other educational means, such as conversation or non-physical sanctions, was not impossible. Meanwhile, the court fined Teacher A 1 million won and ordered him to complete 40 hours of child abuse treatment program. However, the Supreme Court's judgment was different. The original judgment was overturned and the case was sent back to the original court. The Supreme Court interpreted Teacher A's actions as part of education. Since the act of trying to raise the arms was done to encourage students to participate in essential educational activities, it should be viewed as a valid instruction. At the same time, the Supreme Court added that the defendant appears to have chosen an appropriate teaching method within the scope of his reasonable discretion as a teacher. Through this ruling, the Supreme Court made clear its position that ‘even if the teacher caused the student to feel some physical pain, if the act is within the scope of education, it cannot be considered abuse.’ This can be interpreted to mean that when judging a teacher's educational behavior, not only the Child Welfare Act but also related laws such as the Basic Education Act must be broadly considered. This ruling, which recognizes teachers' discretion, is expected to have a significant impact on future child abuse-related lawsuits filed in educational settings.

The court's judgment was that "there is no evidence to support the victim's testimony." According to the legal community on the 4th, the Pyeongtaek branch of the Suwon District Court acquitted 50-year-old Mr. A, who was sent to trial on charges of forcible molestation on the 15th of last month. Mr. A forcibly assaulted Mr. B, a 52-year-old co-worker from the same company, at a karaoke bar in Pyeongtaek-si, Gyeonggi-do in January. He was charged with molestation. During the police investigation, Mr. B claimed that despite his clear intention to refuse, Mr. A tried to touch him by hugging him from behind. However, Mr. A denied the charges, saying he had never done anything to cause sexual disgust, and his colleagues at the company dinner also stated that they had never witnessed Mr. A's molestation. At the trial, Mr. A's legal representative said, "The victim's complaint is against objective facts, and there is nothing to acknowledge the defendant's intention to molest." Affidavits of attendees at the dinner party at the time, fact confirmation documents, etc. were submitted as evidence. The court also ruled, "According to the victim's statement, the defendant's molestation led to a serious situation such as the victim screaming, but it is very unusual for no one to have witnessed it," adding, "It is difficult to conclude that the defendant forcibly molested the victim by looking at the objective circumstances." Attorney Kang Eun-hye of Daeryun Law Firm, the legal representative in the case, said, "The charge of forcible molestation is against the will of the other party." “In particular, in cases where sexual assault is committed through assault or intimidation, it is difficult to collect evidence, so there are many cases where we have no choice but to rely on the victim’s statement,” he said. “The standards for establishing harassment have been relaxed and the scope of punishment has also expanded, so if you are unfairly accused of being a molester, you need systematic help from an expert from the beginning of the case.” [View full article] KBC Gwangju Broadcasting - Man in his 50s accused of 'molesting a fellow employee', court finds 'not guilty' (Shortcut) Segye Ilbo - The woman's consistent claims did not work...

Incheon National University's Faculty of Law and Daeryun Law Firm (Liuhan) joined hands to foster talent. On October 31, at 2 p.m., the two institutions signed a business agreement in Room 502 of the University Headquarters of Incheon National University in the presence of Incheon National University Vice President for External Cooperation Noh Young-don, Dean of the Law Department Lee Chung-hoon, and Professor Jin Do-wang, and Daeryun Law Firm's Representative Attorney Kim Kuk-il, Chief General Counsel Lee Kwang-woo, and Lim Seong-won. In detail, Daeryun decided to provide Incheon National University Law School students with opportunities to gain practical experience and actively cooperate in participating in job fairs and internship programs. Next, the Incheon National University Law School and Daeryun decided to actively promote legal research and education through joint research, holding academic seminars, and invited lectures. They also decided to contribute to the development of the local community by providing legal advice and free legal services. Incheon National University Vice President for External Cooperation Young-don Noh, who attended the business agreement ceremony on this day, said, “I am sincerely grateful to Law Firm CEO Kuk-il Kim, who has stepped forward from afar to interact with and provide assistance to law students majoring in law.” He added, “We will strive to achieve a program that supports mutual practice through today’s agreement.” In response, CEO Kuk-il Kim of Daeryun Law Firm said, “Today is my first visit to Incheon University, and it was like an engineering school in the United States. “I am impressed by the calm and comfortable campus,” he said. “We will do our best to achieve a coexistence with the law firm of Incheon National University, where Daeryun Law Firm’s popularity and accessibility are continuously developing.” Choong-Hoon Lee, Dean of the Department of Law at Incheon National University, said, “We expect that the business agreement with Daeryun Law Firm will provide practical help in strengthening the major abilities and career planning of law school students,” and added, “We are actively working to ensure that the internship program is actively carried out starting from this winter vacation.” “I will step forward,” he said.

In the middle of this year, some union members in Cheonan, South Chungcheong Province held a demonstration in front of the home of the head of a company in Samseong-dong, Seoul, protesting against an increase in construction costs, Hyundai Transys. The union held a protest in front of the home of Hyundai Motor Group Chairman Chung Eui-sun. There were even demonstrations targeting empty houses in front of Samsung Electronics Chairman Lee Jae-yong's home. In various online communities, there are many posts posted by residents who have suffered damage from protests in front of their homes, complaining that "there is no help other than reporting the noise," "it's so annoying that it makes everyday life difficult," and "I'm afraid my children will hear swear words." In this way, residents criticize protests in residential areas for disrupting their peaceful lives and could be considered an "illegal act," while the protesters say that the protests are legitimate. They are fighting back, saying it is an exercise of ‘freedom of expression.’ Netizens are also giving mixed reactions to this. Some argued, “Assemblies in residential areas should be banned at the source,” “What on earth are you doing in front of your home?”, “Not in a residential area, but maybe in front of a factory?”, “Along with the freedom of assembly, all ordinary citizens have the right to live as human beings quietly and without being disturbed.” Also, “Freedom of expression must be protected,” “The assembly law is the sovereignty of the democratic movement,” and “I tried for 100 days in front of the headquarters, but no one would meet me. There was also a response supporting the rights of the protesters, saying, “It is a protest culture created by the corporate culture.” Professor Kwak added, "Company protests are spread across multiple responsibilities, but protests in front of people's homes are entirely the responsibility of the individual, so greater psychological pressure can be felt." Article 21, Paragraph 1 of the Constitution guarantees freedom of assembly and demonstration to all citizens, and under the Assembly and Demonstration Act (Assemblies and Demonstrations Act), protests are operated through a reporting system, not a permit system. However, Article 37, Paragraph 2 of the Constitution stipulates that this right may be restricted only when necessary to maintain public order and safety, allowing for some restrictions in cases where it may pose a threat to national safety or public order. In other words, it is difficult to ban the demonstration in front of one's home, but it is possible to limit the noise level and time zone. The Enforcement Decree of the Assembly and Demonstration Act, revised last August, further strengthened the noise standards in residential areas, etc., and established weekly equivalent noise standards. The maximum noise level was lowered to 60 dB, 50 dB at night, and 45 dB at night (midnight to 7 a.m.). The maximum noise level was lowered to 80 dB during the day, 70 dB at night, and 65 dB at night. According to standards such as the World Health Organization (WHO) and the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA), 80 dB is the noise level of a passing subway, 65 dB is the level of conversation in a crowded cafe, 60dB is the noise level at which people are talking in an office. The Ministry of Environment in Korea sets a noise level of 65dB or less as the daytime noise standard for residential areas, and believes that exceeding this level may result in increased inconvenience to residents. Is there no way for residents to prevent protests in their residential areas? Law firm Daeryun Choi Hyeon-deok said, “There is virtually no way to completely block protests in residential areas. If residents want to receive compensation for damage caused by noise, they must file a civil lawsuit, and this is only possible when the standard decibel level set by the House and Demonstration Act is exceeded.” He added, “If 65 dB persists, it can be quite uncomfortable, so in the future, the decibel standard should be lowered further or in residential areas.” “I think we need a plan to ban the use of loudspeakers,” he emphasized.

[All That Check] (Shortcut) 2026-05-11T03:58:55.447Z https://www.daeryunlaw.com/en/broadcast/3941 A woman in her 60s who was indicted on charges of signing a lease contract while hiding the fact that a hospital with the same medical specialty could not be located in the same commercial complex was found not guilty in the appeals court. On the 8th, the 2-1st Criminal Division of the Seoul Western District Court (Chief Judge Ju-Hyun Lee) overturned the first trial ruling that sentenced A, in her 60s, to a suspended prison sentence on charges of fraud, and declared her not guilty. In 2018, he signed a contract with dentist B to rent a room in the building and received 50 million won as a deposit. However, the ‘same industry restriction agreement’ held back Mr. B. At that time, another dental hospital was already located in the building, and a doctor at the hospital filed a lawsuit for a temporary injunction against Mr. B, requesting that he stop opening the practice. Mr. B then sued Mr. A for fraud. Even though they knew that hospitals in the same medical department could not be located in the same building, they signed a lease agreement while hiding this fact. Mr. B also claimed that although he expressed concern to Mr. A at the time of signing the contract, saying, “There is a dental clinic on a different floor, is it okay for me to go in again?” Mr. A responded, “It is possible.” Mr. A completely denied the allegations. About 20 years ago, the room in question was jointly sold with another partner promising to establish a hospital, but the partner at the time managed the sales contract and failed to properly confirm the related agreements. The first trial court found Mr. A guilty on the charge and sentenced him to 6 months in prison and 2 years of probation. The court explained, "It is difficult to accept that Mr. A was the only one who did not know such an important matter, referring to the fact that in the past, the two people were assigned designated medical departments to avoid overlapping industries." However, the appellate court's judgment was different. It was difficult to say that the fact that Mr. A intentionally deceived the victim was proven beyond a reasonable doubt. The court explained, "It is acknowledged that the partner who had a major conflict with the defendant while operating the hospital did not return the sales contract after the termination of the partnership." It also said, "It is possible that the defendant did not see the sales contract for the room in this case and was not aware of the contents related to business restrictions." He also said, "There has been a conflict over the industry restriction agreement, and as the court has ruled that industry restrictions are not recognized each time, it is highly likely that the defendant did not know these details." Oh Kyung-rok, a lawyer at Daeryun Law Firm (Limited), who represented Mr. A, said, "The core issue of establishing fraud depends on 'proving intent.' He said, "The text about the restrictions was written in very small letters, so I was not aware of the related content at all." He added, "The court also took into account the fact that there was no objective evidence that the defendant knew about the industry restrictions, and overturned the original decision and found him not guilty."

(Go to) 2026-05-04T08:52:11.759Z https://www.daeryunlaw.com/en/broadcast/3934 According to statistics recently released by the National Police Agency, the total number of voice phishing damages that occurred from January to May of this year was 8,434, and the damage amounted to a whopping 256.3 billion won. Voice phishing is now considered a serious social problem as the number of victims has increased significantly every year since the first report was received in 2006. The government also defines voice phishing as a crime against the people's livelihood and has come up with various measures and is carrying out large-scale prevention and promotion activities, but the damage does not appear to be decreasing at all. This is because criminal methods are becoming more sophisticated day by day, to the point where various countermeasures are useless. The strategies of voice phishing gang members have become more sophisticated. The slurred speech that was ridiculed in the media a few years ago has long since disappeared. In addition to false phone numbers, fake websites, and manipulated official documents, even malicious programs appeared. By hacking the victim's cell phone, he was able to control the entire situation at will. It has also become essential to share various roles, such as prosecutors, Financial Supervisory Service employees, and credit card company counselors. The problem is that as their methods become more sophisticated, the number of cases where voice phishing victims are seen as perpetrators is increasing. The author has also witnessed many such cases in the field. In fact, in the case of a woman, Ms. A, early this year, she was singled out as a voice phishing agent and was investigated by the police. After looking into the details, it turned out that she was also a victim. One day, Ms. A received a call from people impersonating prosecutors saying that she was involved in a financial crime. They pushed Mr. A from the beginning, mentioning the ‘possibility of arrest’. At that time, Mr. A called the Financial Supervisory Service and the Prosecutor's Office to directly confirm the fact, but in this case, the people who hacked Mr. A's cell phone pretended to be employees and gave false answers. They also had Mr. A capture and report all contact information and write down the disadvantages he would face if he ignored instructions every day. Mr. A, who was gaslighted, eventually transferred tens of millions of won to these organizations. The crimes of the voice phishing organization did not end here. Mr. A was also used as a cash collection device. Because of this, although Mr. A was a victim, he also had to undergo police investigation as a suspect. Mr. A, who was booked on fraud charges, was fortunately acquitted, but was unable to properly recover the damages he had incurred for the tens of millions of won he had lost. There are also many cases where people are lured in with the lure of employment. The method is to recruit people by posting job postings as if it were a normal company and then hand over the responsibility of collection. In the beginning, the general trend is to assign promised tasks and then, as trust builds, to give various reasons and have them deliver cash. The main targets are people in their 30s and 40s who are in desperate need of employment for economic reasons. However, unlike the case of Mr. A, who also suffered great economic damage, the possibility of punishment in this case can be said to be quite high. You must prove that you were completely unaware that you were involved in a crime, and this process is not easy. Therefore, if you are involved in a voice phishing crime in any case, you must take quick action. In the case of collection measures, since proving 'intention' has a great influence on the judgment of guilt or innocence, you must logically organize and argue the circumstances favorable to you in an investigative agency or court. Victims also need to quickly go through the reporting process with the help of a professional lawyer and then collect evidence that can help apprehend the perpetrator.

As interest in art increased and the size of the art market grew and diversified, investment in art came into the spotlight as a new means of investment, combining art and finance. ‘art tech(Art-Tech)’Even a new word was born:. In addition, as expensive works of art could be purchased with a piece investment, the entry barrier to art tech was lowered, which also led to an influx of investment.. Taking advantage of this trend, many companies have emerged to attract investors by guaranteeing the resale of art works.. However, contrary to the original promotional content, more and more victims are unable to recover their investment.. The most well-known companies are ‘galleryK’all. Currently, victims are communicating through open chat rooms., 400Several people are complaining of damage.. If non-return of investment principal continues, the damage amount will be 1000It amounts to hundreds of millions of won..

These people all have a lot of experience with fraud cases.. -How did you come to rescue the victims?? ▲Initially, I consulted with one or two victims.. Bank interest must be high 4% It's about that much, month 79%is the rate of return at the level of interest rate bonds.. To an art dealer 5%In order to give it, there must also be company maintenance costs., At least art rental fee 20% It seems that it can be maintained if it gets close.. ‘galleryK’ Ponzi fraud group prosecution fraud expert 4They set up a famous rescue team, but unless it's the Mona Lisa, the price of art works is high. 20%When I heard that it was being leased for a monthly lease fee, I thought it was a contract that was realistically unmaintainable.. This type of fraud is difficult to prove if one victim files a complaint., Fraud can only be proven if it is acknowledged that multiple victims were harmed in the same way., We came to the conclusion that there was a need to file a group complaint, so we formed a team and filed a group complaint.. -How many victims have requested complaints regarding the incident?, How much is the damage?? ▲The rescue team 9at the beginning of the month 1I filed a lawsuit against the car, 9at the end of the month 2A car complaint was filed..

A person who plays the role of recruiting investors in the middle(art dealer)Each time a person is recruited, the amount invested by that person is 5%They have been recruiting art dealers and investors through a multi-level approach, promising to pay commissions.. In the end, art dealers were mobilized to recruit investors and the investment funds were used to cover the profits from previous investors. ‘Turn and block’ It has no choice but to operate this way., this ‘Turn and block’It is presumed that he reached his limit and eventually threw up his hands.. -Recently, the police department is also working hard to investigate the Art Tech fraud case.. The team's opinion on the current investigation situation is? ▲Initially, our relief team submitted a complaint to the Metropolitan Investigation Unit of the Seoul Metropolitan Police Agency.. However, it was transferred to Dongdaemun Police Station, where the company is located., As complaints continue to be filed and the scale grows, the investigation has been transferred to the metropolitan investigation team again.. The investigation did not get bigger because our relief team filed a group complaint.. In addition to the people we complained about, many other complainants are filing complaints. From the police perspective, it appears that the case is automatically growing because the number of complainants continues to increase rather than intentionally expanding the investigation.. -As someone who has been in charge of many Ponzi scam cases, including the ArtTech scam, is there anything you would like to advise readers?? ▲The world operates on the common sense oath and nothing is free.. No matter what anyone says, it is important to keep in mind that saying that high profits are guaranteed will inevitably lead to setbacks.. You must make decisions about investments or anything within a story that makes sense based on common sense..

However, it is pointed out that the damage to consumers is increasing as the lodging establishment passes responsibility to the platform, and the platform only sticks to the unilateral ‘no refund’ policy. According to data released by the Korea Consumer Agency, there were a total of 4,118 applications for consumer damage relief related to the use of lodging facilities received over the three years from 2021. Looking at the detailed reasons for application, complaints about the penalty arising from contract cancellation were the highest at 78.5% (3,234 cases). There were also not many cases of agreement to recover damages such as refund, compensation, or contract cancellation. The average agreement rate of the seven major lodging platforms was 64.8%, but Booking.com had the lowest at 39.6%. Yanolja and Timon also recorded low agreement rates of 58% and 43.8%, respectively. Half of the consumers who used the platform did not receive proper damage relief. In fact, many dissatisfied posts regarding cancellation fees are appearing in online communities. Mr. A, who said he had lost hundreds of thousands of won in lodging expenses, said in a post, “My travel itinerary changed, so I re-entered the platform a few hours after payment, but the cancellation column was blocked.” He added, “Even when I contacted the customer service center, the only response was that they could not help, and I was embarrassed to find out about the cancellation policy within 10 minutes later.” The legal battle over cancellation fees also began in earnest. On the 2nd, the Seoul Central District Court held the first hearing of a lawsuit filed by consumers against the lodging platform Yanolja for the return of unfair profits. Previously, Yanolja became a problem because it did not refund lodging fees due to internal regulations even though consumers who reserved special price products requested cancellation within 10 minutes. Accordingly, consumers filed a class action lawsuit against Yanolja. On this day, the two sides had sharply conflicting opinions regarding the violation of the Electronic Commerce Act and the Terms and Conditions Act. According to Article 17 of the Electronic Commerce Act, the regulations related to withdrawal of subscription, consumers who purchased goods from a mail order seller can withdraw their subscription within a certain period of time. In addition, in accordance with Article 6 of the Terms and Conditions Act, provisions that are unfairly disadvantageous to customers are presumed to have lost fairness and are invalidated. The plaintiff, the consumer, argued that “Yanolja is a mail-order intermediary, which is a mail-order seller,” and that “Article 17 of the Electronic Commerce Act applies.” However, Yanolja countered, saying, “It cannot be subject to the law because it is only an intermediary, not a mail-order seller.” Since it is not subject to the regulation law, there is no responsibility for refunds. Both sides also confronted each other regarding the ‘refund policy within 10 minutes’. Yanolja emphasized, “This is a part that was notified to the consumer in advance and agreed to,” and “In principle, waiving the cancellation fee for non-refundable products only if canceled within 10 minutes is a provision that considers the convenience of the consumer.” The consumer side said, “It is difficult to see it as a benefit because it is nothing more than misleading consumers and selling products that were not reserved until one day before the accommodation date, so it is difficult to see it as a benefit.” He emphasized, “It does not fall under the exception rule that restricts consumers’ exercise of their right to withdraw their contract.” It was confirmed that the court proposed an agreement at the date of the meeting and proposed a refund of more than half of the accommodation fee to Yanolja. However, both sides did not accept this, so the trial was moved to the next date. Attorney Kim Jin-woo of Daeryun Law Firm (Limited), the consumer's legal representative, said, “There are frequent situations where consumers do not receive a refund of accommodation fees ranging from 100,000 won to 1 million won due to a momentary wrong decision.” He added, “As the purpose of the Electronic Commerce Act is to protect consumers, the court must make a wise decision to prevent further unfair consumers.” “Please,” he said.

Mr. Kim explained the situation at the time, saying, “The employee who was helping me use the device raised the temperature too high.” Initially, Company A advertised that using this personal combination stimulator could treat painful parts all over the body. They even attracted customers by advertising that attaching the device to the face would smooth out wrinkles. However, the personal combination stimulator is a medical device that applies electric current to the human body through electrodes, and was initially approved for the purpose of relieving muscle pain. According to Newsis coverage on the 24th, while the 'silver healthcare' market continues to grow ahead of the entry into a super-aging society, illegal medical device and equipment experience rooms that sell products through false and exaggerated promotions to the elderly are still active. Over the past three years (2021 to March 2024) A total of 1,188 applications for damage relief related to medical devices were filed with the Korea Consumer Agency, with more than 350 cases occurring every year. As of March of this year, a total of 98 cases were filed, showing a 7.7% increase compared to the same period last year. Looking at age groups, damage to elderly consumers in their 60s or older was the largest at 28.4% (333 cases). As the age group increased, the proportion of online sales decreased, but for those in their 60s or older, the proportion of general sales and door-to-door sales was higher than that of other age groups. Mr. Kim, who was hospitalized after being found that 58% of his nerves were damaged, demanded compensation from Company A for the damage. However, the only reply that came back was, "There is no problem with the medical device in question and it is Mr. Kim's fault that he was injured." Company A gave out daily necessities such as soap and toothpaste for free to elderly people when they visited the free trial room. After winning their favor in this way, they carried out promotional activities to encourage people to purchase their medical devices. However, if false or exaggerated advertisements are made to medical personnel, medical institution founders, or the general public other than medical institution workers in the experience room, or if labeling and description requirements are violated, it can be a legal problem. Lee Seo-hyung, a lawyer at Daeryun Medical Litigation Group, said, "False or exaggerated advertisements about the performance, efficacy, or effects of a medical device, such as claiming that it is effective in treating obesity and lumbar disc problems in addition to relieving muscle pain, which is permitted, He pointed out, "Even though it is an industrial product, advertising that claims to be a medical device, such as improving cervical disc problems, causing the product to be misunderstood as a medical device, or labeling or listing information that is false or likely to be misunderstood, may constitute a violation of the Medical Device Act." In fact, Company A was caught by the Ministry of Food and Drug Safety's so-called 'floating cafe' surveillance network in January 2017 for false and exaggerated advertising. At the time, the Ministry of Food and Drug Safety detected 52 medical device experience rooms, including Company A, and filed criminal charges. In particular, in such illegal experience rooms, unqualified people, not professionals, usually lead the use of the device, and even in the event of damage, related compensation or relief measures are not in place, so consumers must be especially careful. Lee Seo-hyung, a lawyer at Daeryun Medical Litigation Group, said, "If an unqualified person goes beyond simply helping to use a medical device and performs medical activities such as relieving muscle pain using a medical device, it is a violation of the Medical Services Act. “It may be an unlicensed medical practice prohibited by Article 27,” he pointed out. Meanwhile, Company A told Newsis, “There is no problem with the device in question,” and “I don’t know what the experience room has to do with the medical law.” [View full article] - ‘Miracle cure’ paralyzes legs… ‘Giseung’, an illegal device experience room for the elderly (link) 2026-05-14T05:26:09.187Z https://www.daeryunlaw.com/en/broadcast/3893 Following the decision of non-indictment, the Seoul High Prosecutors' Office dismissed the appeal of an employer who was sent by the Employment and Labor Office on charges of failing to pay severance pay to an employee who had worked for 10 years. The Seoul High Prosecutors' Office on the 12th of last month accepted an appeal from 'Retired Employee A' in response to an appeal case in which the Central Region Employment and Labor Office sent the employer, Mr. B, to the prosecution on charges of violating the Employee Retirement Benefits Security Act in September of last year. It was dismissed. Mr. A was hired by Mr. B's company in May 2012, but suffered an injury in July of that year, two months after joining the company, and entered industrial accident care. Afterwards, he did not work for over 10 years. However, Mr. A's four major insurance policies were lost only in February 2023, 10 years later. However, only then did Mr. A demand severance pay of about 21 million won from Mr. B. This was an amount calculated based on the working period from May 2012, when Mr. A started working, to the date when the four major insurance policies expired. However, Mr. B refused to pay severance pay to Mr. A. Then, Mr. A submitted a petition to the competent Employment and Labor Office, and after completing the related investigation, the Employment and Labor Office sent Mr. B to the Uijeongbu District Prosecutors' Office on charges of non-payment of severance pay. Mr. B said, “Mr. A's actual working period was 2 months. “In addition, we reported the four major insurance policies late so that the injured person A could maintain his health insurance and receive treatment,” he said, adding, “We thought there would be no obligation to pay severance pay.” The Uijeongbu District Prosecutors’ Office, which investigated this case, determined that Mr. B’s failure to pay severance pay was not intentional. The main reason was that Mr. A had never worked since the injury, and the actual working period was less than a year. In the decision not to indict, the prosecution said, “It would have been difficult for the employer to think that severance pay should be paid because more than 10 years have passed since the end date of employment. The delayed loss of the four major insurance policies is only an administrative process and cannot be considered the actual end date of the working period,” adding, “It is possible that Mr. B recognized that he had no obligation to pay severance pay to Mr. A. Mr. A stated the reason for non-indictment, saying, “It is enough.” Mr. A objected and submitted a notice of appeal. However, as a result of the Seoul High Prosecutors’ Office’s investigation into Mr. B’s charges, the appeal was dismissed due to insufficient evidence and the non-indictment against Mr. B was maintained. Attorney Heo Seong-guk of Daeryun Law Firm (Limited), who represented the business owner Mr. B in this case, said, “If there was a mistake or unavoidable circumstances in not paying wages or severance pay, it cannot be considered intentional.” “From the business owner’s perspective, it was difficult to think that Mr. A would have incurred severance pay because his actual working period was short. In addition, it appears that it has been acknowledged that there were difficulties in making actual payments due to the deterioration of the company’s management,” he said.

(Shortcut) 2026-05-14T04:31:28.776Z https://www.daeryunlaw.com/en/broadcast/3891 The Act on Punishment of Stalking Crimes, the so-called ‘Stalking Punishment Act’, has been in effect for three years this year. The main point of this bill is to prohibit acts that repeatedly cause fear in the other person or his or her family without justifiable reason. The act of waiting at a residence or workplace, as well as the act of leaving or delivering an object, are all included in 'stalking'. Even if you make the other person feel anxious by contacting them using SNS, etc., you can be punished. If you are found guilty of stalking, you can be sentenced to up to 3 years in prison or a fine of up to 30 million won. The scope of application of stalking punishment laws is gradually expanding. Last year, an amendment was passed through the National Assembly that considers the act of providing, distributing, or posting personal information to a third party through an information and communications network as stalking. The fact that a medical resident was arrested under the Stalking Punishment Act after making a list of doctors who did not participate in the recent collective strike and posting it on the Internet can also be said to be the impact of this amendment. The core of the Stalking Punishment Act is 'continuity' and 'repetition'. The frequency and duration of the perpetrator's stalking behavior and whether it caused fear and anxiety in the victim are important factors in determining guilt or innocence. Even if there was stalking, if it was only a one-time act, it is difficult for the charge to be acknowledged, and even if the victim approached the victim multiple times against her will, there are many cases where the victim was found not guilty because the intent of the stalking was not clearly proven. The problem is that there is still no clear standard for stalking punishment. The concept of ‘continuity/repetition’ itself is somewhat subjective, and the interpretation of ‘fear/anxiety’ also has limitations as it inevitably varies depending on one’s perspective. Because of this situation, there are many cases where stalking is reported but the damage is not acknowledged. According to data from the Ministry of Justice, the number of suspects who were investigated by the prosecution after the enforcement of the stalking punishment law exceeded 10,000 last year alone, but it was revealed that most of them were summarily indicted or not indicted. The rate of arrested suspects was also less than 3%. Therefore, if you are a victim of a stalking crime, you should seek professional help as soon as possible. First, it is necessary to collect as much data as possible to prove repeated and continuous stalking, such as call records and SNS. In addition, since you must prove that the other person's stalking behavior was committed against your will, it is most important to respond to the situation with the assistance of a lawyer. Conversely, as mentioned above, as the scope of punishment itself expands, a situation in which you are unintentionally singled out as a suspect of a stalking crime may also occur. In particular, in the case of the stalking punishment law, as the crime of impunity against a doctor has been abolished, once a report is filed, it must be investigated regardless of the victim's will. Therefore, even in this case, it is necessary to work with experts to respond early and devise a strategy to get rid of unfair charges.

(Shortcut) 2026-05-13T05:56:20.222Z https://www.daeryunlaw.com/en/broadcast/3881 A private academy instructor in his 20s who sexually assaulted a minor whom he found out through a chat app several times and even received illegally filmed footage was sentenced to a reduced sentence on appeal. On the 23rd, the 1st Criminal Division of the Daegu High Court overturned the original sentence that sentenced 29-year-old Mr. In addition, Mr. A was ordered to take 40 hours of sexual violence treatment classes and be restricted from employment at organizations related to children, youth, and the disabled for five years. Mr. A is accused of luring Ms. B, who was 12 years old at the time, in his vehicle in the parking lot of an apartment in Seo-gu, Daegu, and having sex with her in August of last year. Mr. A is known to have had sexual intercourse with Ms. B a total of 10 times from August to October of last year through a chat app. He also forced Ms. B to take and send explicit photos. In addition, it was revealed that he sent obscene messages containing content such as "Please take off my clothes" more than 47 times. The first trial court said, "The nature of the crime is very bad, as the defendant committed adultery with a victim who was only 12 years old and made her film and send sexually exploitative material," and added, "In that he made the victim, a child and adolescent who needs protection because his awareness and values about sex have not yet been established, the object of his sexual desire. He pointed out that "severe punishment is inevitable" and was sentenced to four years in prison. During the subsequent appeal process, Mr. A asked the court to take into account the fact that he voluntarily deleted all illegally filmed videos sent by the victim and the fact that Mr. A made efforts to end his meeting with the victim after recognizing his mistake. He also argued that the victim expressed his intention not to punish Mr. A. The appeals court said, "It does not appear that the defendant used coercive force such as assault or threats. “There is no evidence that the sexually exploitative material produced was leaked to the outside world,” the ruling said. “It seems reasonable to postpone the execution of the prison sentence along with probation rather than the actual sentence.” Attorney Lee Shin-gyu of Daeryun Law Firm (Limited), who is Mr. A’s legal representative, said, “There are many cases where problems arise due to meeting with a minor through an app, and the age limit for rape of a minor has been raised from 13 to 16, and the scope has been broadened. “The number of cases being booked is increasing,” he said. “In this case, we were able to receive recognition of sentencing factors favorable to the defendant by carefully considering whether he or she was a minor and whether or not he or she gave consent.” He also explained, “It is difficult to avoid criminal punishment in cases of sexual crimes against minors even if there was no assault or intimidation.” He also explained, “If a guilty verdict is issued, various sex crime security measures such as employment restrictions, attachment of an electronic anklet, and registration and disclosure of personal information are also imposed, so we must respond from the investigation stage.” [View full article] - Academy instructor who sexually assaulted a minor he met on a chat app had his sentence reduced on appeal (link) 2026-05-13T14:09:40.567Z https://www.daeryunlaw.com/en/broadcast/3867 [Interview] Kim In-won, head of the criminal group at Daeryun Law Firm. As the deepfake crime of synthesizing and distributing other people's photos into pornographic material is spreading beyond college campuses to elementary, middle and high schools, the legal community has taken active action by establishing a dedicated organization. Daeryun Law Firm also declared that it will do its best to respond to the recent surge in deepfake crimes. The plan is to use cutting-edge technologies such as digital forensics to investigate evidence. To collect evidence, a cybercrime team linked with the evidence investigation and digital forensics group was formed. We actively utilize the mock investigation room and court system to provide close legal representation in all procedures, from the police investigation stage to the trial. Detective Group Director Kim In-won emphasized the importance of legal assistance in responding to deepfake crimes. The following is a Q&A with Group Director Kim. - Recently, deepfake technology has created an uproar in society. What kind of technology is it and what are the criminal aspects? ▶ Deepfake is a compound word of Deep Learning and Fake, and is a technology that uses AI to create images or videos whose authenticity cannot be confirmed. For example, if you create a video of a famous actor walking by combining the face of a famous actor with the body of a passing citizen, that is a deepfake video. Deepfakes are rarely used in a healthy way, simply as a hobby. Crimes such as defamation by creating a composite video of a famous politician or creating and distributing a sexual crime video by synthesizing the face of an acquaintance are common. -What is the punishment for downloading or distributing deepfake materials? ▶ If you produce, distribute, or edit a deepfake video, you can be punished by up to 5 years in prison or a fine of up to 50 million won in accordance with the Special Act on the Punishment of Sexual Violence Crimes. If you distribute the video for commercial purposes, you may be subject to aggravated punishment of up to 7 years in prison. In fact, in the so-called 'Seoul National University N Room Case', where sexual exploitation was created by combining the faces of female alumni with pornography, one of the defendants was sentenced to five years in prison in the first trial. - Is punishment for simply participating in a chat room where videos are shared? ▶ Currently, there is no punishment provision for simply watching or possessing deepfake videos. However, due to the recent increase in sexual crime cases on Telegram, there are opinions that simple participants should be punished for aiding and abetting, so it is better not to participate in the chat room at all. - What help can lawyers provide to victims of deepfake crimes? ▶ For most cyber sex crimes, including deepfake, securing evidence is the most important thing, but it is somewhat difficult to proceed alone due to the closed distribution channel. At this time, if you get the help of a professional lawyer, collecting evidence to prove damage becomes much easier. In the case of Daeryun, it operates a digital forensics center to support the recovery of deleted data and the collection of legal evidence regarding the status of video distribution. We can even assist with deleting personal or sensitive information and submitting it to investigative agencies. - Advice you can give if you are involved in a cyber sex crime. ▶ Cyber ​​sex crimes have the characteristic of not being limited by time and space. Crimes occur frequently and can be punished with various charges, so we need to respond quickly. If you are a victim, it is recommended that you seek help from a professional to quickly collect evidence, and if you are a perpetrator, it is recommended that you consult with a professional lawyer to secure elements of a reduced sentence.

This is because the key information claimed by the company does not constitute a trade secret. On the 20th of last month, the Suwon District Court Seongnam Branch Civil Division 3 (Chief Judge Song In-kwon) ruled that the company filed a lawsuit against retirees A and B, as well as competitors. The plaintiff was ruled to lose in the injunction suit filed against Company C for prohibition of transfer and infringement of trade secrets. Mr. A and Mr. B worked as managers in the sales department at the time of their employment, and left the company in early 2020. Afterwards, they transferred to C Corporation, which was conducting the same business in August of the same year. The plaintiff claimed that defendants A and B, who were in positions with access to information, handed over information assets acquired during their employment to Company C, causing enormous damage to the business, and claimed 200 million won. It requested compensation of about 10 million won. In addition, it was claimed that A and B did not fulfill the agreement even after signing an agreement prohibiting change of job. Under the current law, if an employee who handles the company's trade secrets discloses confidential information to the outside world, he or she may be subject to criminal punishment of up to 15 years in prison or a fine of up to 1.5 billion won. In addition, he or she must also be liable for civil damages. However, the court ruled that the information in the case did not meet the conditions for a trade secret. The court said, “Based on the evidence submitted by the plaintiff, it is difficult to admit that defendants A and B secretly exported information about this case or used it to conduct business.” It continued, “There is no data that shows what kind of information was exported, and it cannot be said that A and B exported information about this company just because some of the companies that company C did business with are consistent with the plaintiff’s business partners.” It also said, “Mrs. A and B are related to this case. They were all indicted on charges of breach of trust and leaking of trade secrets, but in the case of Company C, the prosecution decided not to indict them, saying there were no charges. Attorney Kim Yong-tae of Daeryun Law Firm (Limited), who represented the defendants, said, "The key information claimed by the plaintiff is ambiguous and cannot be identified, and even if it is identified, it does not constitute a trade secret. Even if the prohibition agreement on transfers is an issue, the prohibition period is limited." He explained, “The plaintiff’s claim cannot be established in that the three-year agreement itself is invalid as it violates Article 103 of the Civil Act.” [View full article] - Retired person sued for leaking confidential information to a competitor... Law: “It is not a trade secret” (Shortcut) 2026-05-12T07:53:16.374Z https://www.daeryunlaw.com/en/broadcast/3857 A YouTuber impersonating a celebrity on the coin platform stole 18 million won in the name of proxy trading. “Risk of proxy investment for individuals, not experts.” #A, an office worker in his 20s living in Gyeonggi-do, recently transferred $13,000 (approximately 18 million won) to a coin YouTuber L in the name of coin proxy trading. L introduced himself as a famous figure in the coin community and attracted about 3,500 subscribers, saying he would even provide personal counseling for people in difficult times. Accordingly, Mr. A also had a one-on-one conversation with L for about two and a half months through the social network service (SNS) framework, and came to trust him in a desperate situation. However, L went into hiding after receiving 18 million won in the name of agency transactions. Mr. A expressed his frustration, saying, “Looking back, it makes no sense, but I am going through a difficult time these days, and when I approached you with serious counseling, I felt like I was blind and deaf.” According to the virtual asset industry on the 19th, on the 15th, a victim who lost about 18 million won due to a coin YouTuber filed a complaint with the police. The victim paid 18 million won to coin YouTuber L in the name of proxy coin trading, of which approx. He claimed that he only received $400 (about 550,000 won) back. Mr. L told Mr. A that he could do proxy coin trading and encouraged him to do so, saying that many investors were already participating. Mr. A said, “At first, I only gave him $400, but the next day he refused to give me the money, saying that there was a loss in the transaction.” Currently, YouTuber L has deleted his channel. The conversation history with him has also been deleted. Coin YouTuber L introduced himself as a famous coin investor and attracted subscribers by explaining investment methods and investment views to investors who had difficulty investing in coins. Victim A believed YouTuber L's words that people who were having difficulty or having difficulties should apply for 1:1 consultation and asked him for advice. Mr. A explained that he talked to L for two and a half months from early August to mid-October and gained trust during the conversation. However, YouTuber L did not propose proxy coin trading to Mr. A from the beginning. After building trust for two and a half months, one day L brought up the topic of ‘two-way trading’. Two-way trading was a transaction in which Mr. A took an opposing position with the exchange designated by YouTuber L through futures trading, and received a certain amount of commission when the stock on the exchange was liquidated. YouTuber L designated an exchange to Mr. A and asked for money to buy ‘Tetter’ coins at that exchange. L asked to deposit cash into a designated account to purchase coins. Mr. A said that he felt uncomfortable because the exchange purchases coins by depositing them into an account rather than purchasing them directly. For example, if 1 million won is deposited into an account designated by L, a certain amount of Tether will be received at the exchange and futures trading will be conducted with that amount. If the exchange account takes a short (sell) position with 100 times leverage, Mr. A takes a long (buy) position with 5 times leverage through his account. Here, 100x leverage short means that even if the coin price falls by just 1%, you will receive a 100% return on the investment principal. Here, YouTuber L said that when the stock on the exchange where he held a 100x short position is liquidated, the stock will go into the exchange and he will receive a certain fee, so he will pay back about 30% of the commission to Mr. A. At first glance, it seems like all you have to do is liquidate the stock on the exchange, and the victim will also take the opposite position with this account, so there will be no loss, but that is not the case. This is because it is extremely rare for novice investors to make money in futures trading. Mr. A also tried this method just twice, but ended up losing hundreds of thousands of won. Later, I found out that the exchange did not even have a system for withdrawing Tether coins. On a normal exchange, purchased Tether can be withdrawn. In addition, it was an exchange that had not been reported to the Financial Services Commission's Financial Safety Information Institute. During this process, Mr. A said he would no longer trade, and at this time, YouTuber L, with whom he had built a sense of trust, approached him in a friendly and friendly manner and suggested proxy coin trading. Mr. A said that the problem was that he trusted YouTuber L because he had developed a sense of trust. Seong-geun Cho, a lawyer at Daeryun Law Firm, said, “It is very risky to entrust investments to individuals who are not professionally qualified, as there is a high risk,” and added, “Financial consumers are especially required to be careful because transactions with high profits in a short period of time are highly likely to be fraudulent.” [View full article] - “If you haven’t had fun investing in coins, just leave it to us”…Coin proxy investment warning (link) 2026-05-13T13:19:54.770Z https://www.daeryunlaw.com/en/broadcast/3853 Customized support for business structure improvement and business diversification, from reviewing various contracts to responding to real estate business legal issues.Daeryun Law Firm (Limited) announced on the 18th that it signed an MOU for legal advice with Kyungil Rental.

The goal is to further develop the existing litigation management system to handle case management within the corporation more efficiently and systematically. Currently, the Daeryun Litigation Management Center is centered around the Seoul headquarters, which is the control tower. It is linked to offices across the country, so the head office manages and inspects all cases in progress at each regional office. This is to increase the success rate by systematically reviewing the case from the perspective of the court or investigative agency before an investigation or lawsuit is conducted. At the time of acceptance, a minimum of 2 to a maximum of 20 lawyers are assigned depending on the type and difficulty of the case. When necessary, experts in other fields, such as accountants and tax accountants, are also brought in. Even if a case is taken over by a local office, the head office manages it in general and designates an appropriate lawyer for each case, making it possible to provide more professional legal services. Daeryun plans to designate a large number of lawyers from the Litigation Management Center as former chief judges, and devote themselves to thoroughly managing the entire implementation process, such as judging the case more accurately and clearly determining the direction of the lawsuit. Previously, cases were reviewed through discussions between multiple lawyers. The strengthened Litigation Management Center will have many lawyers who were former chief judges with long legal experience, allowing them to look more closely at the entire process, including writing and trials. CEO Kuk-il Kim said, "Currently, some law firms are keeping a close eye on various chronic issues in the legal field, such as delay in litigation and negligence in carrying out lawsuits. This is why experienced chief judge-level lawyers lead lawyers in specialized teams and are in charge of overall cases to ensure that there are no problems in carrying out lawsuits." “By closely examining ongoing cases within the corporation, we have improved the quality of written and trial processing,” he said.

After making a reservation in the early morning, I canceled it the next morning, but was informed by the company that "if the regulations are followed, it is difficult to refund the already applied fee." Yeogi Eottae said, "We will inform you after checking other options." Initially, they said they would check at 2 PM and give an answer, but they remained silent the next day. Consumer complaints about lodging platforms, including Yeogi Eottae, have been going on for several years. Like Mr. A, people who booked accommodations but clicked the wrong cancellation button or simply changed their mind canceled the stay, and the majority of complaints occurred when it was impossible to get a refund or withdraw the cancellation decision.

Accordingly, the status of damage relief, which was only 1,047 cases in 2021, increased to 1,428 cases in 2022 and 1,643 cases in 2023. When looking at the reasons for application, complaints about penalties for contract cancellation were the most common at 78.5%. There have been frequent cases where some lodging facilities unconditionally refuse refunds regardless of the time of contract cancellation request due to the fact that the non-refundable terms and conditions were notified in advance. The number of penalty complaints was 848 in 2021, which was less than 1,000, but increased every year to 1,115 in 2022 and 1,271 in 2023. By platform, Yeogi Eottae received the most applications for damage relief, with a total of 523 cases over the three years. This was followed by Agoda with 505 applications, Yanolja with 502 applications, and Naver with 358 applications. Although there were repeated increases and decreases every year, the number of applications for damage relief by platform increased by 79.38% from 97 cases in 2021 to 174 cases last year. Such consumer complaints appear to be due to difficult cancellation fee policies and difficulties in confirming cancellation fees. Previously, the Korea Consumer Agency has been encouraging accommodation reservation service providers to self-improve when cases of refunds were refused when cancellations were made on the day of contract signing. Accordingly, since 2017, Daily Hotel, Yanolja, Yeogi Eottae, and Hotel Enjoy have decided to provide full refunds for all products, including non-refundable products, if canceled within 10 minutes to 1 hour after signing the contract. However, consumer dissatisfaction is still high. In particular, the inability to find out the cancellation fee at a glance before making a reservation was also pointed out as a problem. Consumer A said, "It was difficult to check the cancellation fee policy without directly clicking the red letters in the terms and conditions. When I used the same lodging company before, I complied with the request to cancel because all the rooms were full, but the problem is that they do not agree to a refund when the consumer is actually losing money." Complaints growing over 'unfair contracts' favorable to lodging platforms Under the 'Act on Consumer Protection in Electronic Commerce, etc.', cancellation of subscription regarding the contract is possible within 7 days from the date of receiving a written document regarding the contract details. However, on lodging platforms, there are frequent cases where people, like Mr. A, do not receive a refund despite canceling on the same day. Accordingly, competitor Yanolja recently received a class action lawsuit from consumers. According to the Electronic Commerce Act, products traded can be withdrawn within a week, but some products can only be canceled for free within 10 minutes, so a structure that is advantageous only to the platform was pointed out as a problem. According to Article 6, Paragraph 2 of the Terms and Conditions Act, clauses that are unfairly disadvantageous to the customer, clauses that are difficult to predict, and clauses that limit fundamental rights are presumed to have lost fairness and are treated as invalid. Daeryun Law Firm, which handled the lawsuit, pointed out that the refund policy was unfavorable to customers and thus lost fairness. Here, it is also notified that some of the domestic hotel, resort, pension, guesthouse, camping, and home and villa products can be canceled free of charge only within 10 minutes after reservation and payment, and that the cancellation and refund policy of the relevant accommodation applies thereafter. However, in many cases, it was difficult to intuitively understand these regulations because 3-4 images and room information were located at the bottom of the last scroll. There was also a difference when making a reservation directly through the hotel website rather than through the platform. According to its terms and conditions, Lotte Hotel does not charge a fee if the accommodation contract is canceled in whole or in part due to the customer's circumstances, and if cancellation is made by 6 PM (hotel local time) one day before the scheduled stay date. Cancellation after 6 p.m. was possible by paying only one night’s fee. Consumer confusion is increasing due to different cancellation fee policies depending on the reservation method. One industry insider saidIn a phone call with , he said, "There is a volume of rooms provided by contract for each accommodation platform, and in order to handle this, we will have no choice but to conduct promotions or marketing," and "For this reason, there is a possibility that we will not be able to afford cancellation fees." The 'Consumer Dispute Resolution Standards' also stipulate that even if the contract is canceled due to reasons attributable to the consumer, the down payment must be fully refunded if canceled 10 days before the scheduled use date or on the day of the contract conclusion. However, consumer dispute resolution standards are literally 'recommendations' and therefore have no binding force, making it difficult to actually receive compensation. Part of the cancellation fee is converted into platform revenue... Performance is also growing While consumer complaints are increasing every year, Yeogi Eottae's performance is showing a continuous upward trend. In particular, last year, despite a sharp decline of 22.54% in room sales revenue from KRW 133.1 billion to KRW 103.1 billion compared to the previous year, sales growth was maintained with commission income growing 13.42% from KRW 109.5 billion to KRW 124.2 billion and advertising fee income growing 30.41% from KRW 62.8 billion to KRW 81.9 billion. Commission income refers to income including all fees related to reservations. The cancellation fee is basically paid to the affiliated store, but a portion of it is paid to the affiliated store. The share of such commission income in total revenue amounted to 40.18%. This is an increase of about 4.33% points compared to 35.85% in the previous year. In particular, Yeogi Eottae's fee income increased by 58.47% from 69.1 billion won in 2021 to 109.5 billion won in 2022. Last year, it recorded 124.2 billion won, a 13.42% increase compared to the previous year. During the same period, its share of total sales also increased to 33.7%, 35.8%, and 40.2%. In particular, last year's commission income was only 59.28% of competitor Yanolja's separate sales commission income (KRW 209.5 billion). According to Mobile Index, the average number of monthly users over the past year was 2.2 million for Yeogi Eottae, which was 80,000 fewer than Yanolja (2.28 million). Nevertheless, from 2022, the number of applications for damage relief has been higher than that of Yanolja. As a result of a survey by the Korea Consumer Agency of the status of applications for damage relief by platform, the number of applications for Yeogi Eottae jumped from 97 in 2021 to 252 in 2022. However, last year, there were 174 cases, a 31.0% decrease from the previous year. During the same period, Yanolja's applications for damage relief increased and decreased repeatedly: 133, 198, and 171. However, it is positive that Yeogi Eottae's damage relief processing (settlement rate) increased to 63.9% in 2021, 71.8% in 2022, and 78.2% in 2023. Among these, Yeogi Eottae's sales and operating profit showed even growth, and its operating profit ratio increased to 7.56% in 2021, 10.64% in 2022, and 15.01% in 2023. Profitability has nearly doubled in three years. During the same period, operating profit continued to increase to KRW 15.5 billion, KRW 32.5 billion, and KRW 46.4 billion. The cash reserves are also ample. The current ratio at the end of last year was 130.98%. Among these, Yeogi Eottae's cash and cash equivalents, including short-term financial products, totaled 100.2 billion won, exceeding the combined amount of trade payables and payables of 54.9 billion won. In this regard, an official of Yeogi Eottae said:In a phone call with , he said, "We will continue to strengthen CS to resolve civil complaints."

Recently, an active player in a domestic professional soccer league passed a sexually transmitted disease to a woman and was handed over to the prosecution. In this way, if you are aware of the disease and have sexual intercourse and infect your partner, you can be punished by law. In cases of sexually transmitted disease infection, a crime of injury or manslaughter may be applied. In general, it is easy to think of the crime of injury as inflicting physical damage by inflicting violence on another person, but the crime of injury can also be applied when intentionally causing physical or mental pain to another person. Looking at Supreme Court precedents, injury is something that damages the integrity of the victim's body or causes impairment in physiological functions, and does not necessarily have to be accompanied by external injuries. Therefore, if you spread the disease by hiding the fact that you were infected with a sexually transmitted disease, you can be sued by the other party. The key here is 'intention.' If you have sexual intercourse even after knowing that you have a sexually transmitted disease, you will be charged with bodily harm, and if you contracted the infection without knowing it, you will be charged with manslaughter. All of these crimes carry heavy punishment if found guilty. Article 257 of the Criminal Act states that a person who causes physical injury to another person shall be subject to imprisonment for up to 7 years, suspension of qualifications for up to 10 years, or a fine of up to 10 million won. Article 266 of the same Act stipulates that anyone who causes physical injury to a person due to negligence shall be subject to a fine of up to 5 million won, detention, or minor fines. However, in cases of sexually transmitted disease infection, it is difficult to prove it and rarely leads to punishment in practice. This is because it is not difficult to prove that you were infected by someone else. It can only be accepted as evidence if it proves intentionality that the person was aware of the infection and a causal relationship that the person was infected through sexual intercourse with the other person. For example, there was a case where a man hid the fact that he was infected with herpes type 2, causing damage to the person he was in a romantic relationship with. As a result of continuing sexual intercourse without informing the victim that he or she was infected with a virus that is transmitted through sexual contact, the victim suffered permanent damage that requires lifelong care. At this time, the victim, who received assistance from a lawyer, proved the damage through valid evidence such as conversation history and medical records. Additionally, in addition to criminal punishment, civil compensation for damages was also sought and monetary compensation was received. Conversely, there are also cases where the charges are wrongfully filed. There are times when a person is accused by the other person and is framed as a perpetrator, but if you claim to have suffered damage even though you were infected by someone else, you have no choice but to be sued. In this case, it is necessary to get the help of experts from the beginning of the case and quickly clear the charges.

Uniform court says, “Business owner is responsible for injuries that occurred while working… Mental shock must also be compensated.” The business owner, who had ignored the request for compensation from an employee who was injured while putting out a fire, has been awarded compensation, including alimony. The court ruled that mental damages caused by the business owner's insincere attitude must also be compensated. The Bucheon branch of the Incheon District Court ruled in favor of the plaintiff in a damages lawsuit filed by employee A against restaurant owner B in August. Person A suffered burns while working at a restaurant run by person B earlier this year. While Mr. B left the fire on to cook food, a fire broke out and he was injured while trying to extinguish it. Mr. A, who suffered third-degree or higher burns, was told by the hospital's medical staff that he would need more than a year of treatment. Afterwards, he requested compensation for damage, including treatment costs, from Mr. B, but Mr. B avoided contact, saying, “I cannot give you a large amount of money.” The court ruled in Mr. A’s favor. The court ruled that Mr. A should pay 28 million won in compensation, saying, "Considering that the fire occurred during working hours and that sufficient safety training and protective equipment were not provided, the store owner's negligence is acknowledged." It also ordered Mr. A and his mother to pay 3 million won each in alimony. The court explained, "The psychological trauma suffered by the plaintiff due to the severe burns is very serious," and "It appears that not only the plaintiff but also the plaintiff's mother suffered extreme pain as not even a proper apology or compensation was provided." Shin Yong-hoon, a lawyer at Daeryun Law Firm (Limited), who represented Mr. He added, “Even though Mr. A, who was a job seeker, suffered serious injuries that required long-term treatment, the store owner showed an irresponsible attitude, which added to the mental stress of Mr. A’s family.” He added, “It appears that the court took these circumstances into consideration and even ordered the payment of alimony.” [View full article] - Ignoring calls from an employee who was injured at work... The story of having to pay alimony (link) 2026-05-13T11:25:44.594Z https://www.daeryunlaw.com/en/broadcast/3831 The Ministry of Labor and the Ministry of Employment and Labor judged that it is difficult to regard celebrities as employees in the past. Celebrity exclusive contracts are judged to be delegation contracts under civil law, so there must be 'subordination' and 'compulsion' to be recognized as workers. Hani, a member of the girl group New Jeans, appeared at the National Assembly Audit Hall on the 15th to testify about the issue of bullying in the workplace, saying that she was ostracized within the hive of an entertainment agency. On this day, Hani said that this was not the first time something like this had happened, and said in tears that this would not have happened if they respected each other as human beings. It was leaked. New Jeans fans reported Adore and Hive officials to the police, and it is known that about 100 complaints were also filed with the Ministry of Employment and Labor. Now the ball has passed to the Ministry of Labor. The issue is whether the employee status of New Jeans members who signed individual contracts with the agency is recognized. Netizens responded by saying, “Are freelancers and self-employed workers employees? Make all non-employed self-employed employees employees,” “Are idols employees? They belong to an agency, but they don’t receive a set salary,” “Where are the workers who earn several billion won?”, “Shouldn’t all office workers in the country with a monthly salary of less than 300 be subject to a national inspection?”, “Are idols wage earners? Business income earners?” and that celebrities with different salary levels are not included as workers. On the other hand, there were also reactions such as “Workers outside of the workforce are also people. We need to protect them,” “We are all human beings, so it’s hard to argue whether they are workers or not,” “It is true that whether or not they are workers is based on how much money they make, and the purpose of this national inspection is to guarantee the human rights of special workers, including celebrities,” and “There must have been a lot of unfairness that many young trainees and idols were unable to speak about in their blind spots.” Looking at past government judgments, It was difficult to classify celebrities who sign exclusive contracts as workers under the Labor Standards Act. A ‘worker’ under the Labor Standards Act is defined as “a person who is subordinate to an employer and provides labor for wages.” Most celebrities work under an exclusive contract with an agency, and the agency manages the celebrity’s activities and shares profits. However, since the agency is entrusted with the celebrity's work and performs it faithfully, such a contract is generally judged to be a delegation contract or contract based on a delegation contract under civil law and is not considered an employment contract. What conditions must a celebrity meet in order to be recognized as an employee? Attorney Choi Hyun-deok of the Daeryun Law Firm explained, “They must be in an employment relationship where they are subordinate to their agency and receive unilateral instructions, commands, and supervision.” He continued, “If a celebrity does not have independent decision-making authority in their activities and is required to follow the agency’s unilateral instructions (defined tasks), and if they receive specific and direct command and supervision in the course of their work, several conditions must be met.” However, he explained that most of the exclusive contracts of celebrities are atypical contracts that are based on delegation contracts and are a mixture of employment contracts and subcontracts, so it would be difficult for celebrities to be recognized as pure workers who are completely subordinate to the management company. As a result, some point out that there is a need to improve the labor rights of idols, who are in a blind spot. Workplace Gapjil 119 said that since idols are young and have a subordinate relationship with their agency, they are even more considered workers under the Labor Standards Act. Lawyer Choi also said that there is still a lack of a legal system that can clarify the nature of celebrity exclusive contracts, and suggested that there should be legislation that takes into account the special characteristics of celebrities. How are celebrities classified overseas? In the US and UK, celebrities are generally not considered workers. In the United States, people are classified as ‘independent contractors’ and must pay their own income and social security taxes, and often do not receive welfare benefits provided by their employers. In the UK, celebrities are mainly classified as ‘self-employed’. They contract to participate in plays, broadcasts, films, etc., but perform the work freely rather than receiving direct instructions from their employer.

Questions left by Hani’s testimony [All That Check] (Shortcut) 2026-05-11T05:39:32.364Z https://www.daeryunlaw.com/en/broadcast/3823 While the Ministry of Justice is pushing for revisions to the Commercial Act and the Capital Markets Act that include 'protection of shareholders' interests,' some are pushing ahead with the amendments to the Commercial Act and the Capital Markets Act without listening to the opinions of businessmen and others. There is also criticism that it is a "political amendment." There is confusion between related ministries or lack of preparation. Initially, whenever the Commercial Act is revised, the Ministry of Justice creates a revision committee made up of experts and collects various opinions, but in this revision, unusually, there is no movement to form a committee. They also seem to be rushing to announce the amendment without even completing the hearing of opinions from stakeholders, including businessmen. According to the legal community on the 15th, the Ministry of Justice has not established a commercial law revision committee while promoting a commercial law revision aimed at protecting shareholders' interests. Although it is not necessary to create a committee to revise the Commercial Act, there is a precedent of always creating a committee and collecting various opinions from experts when making large or small revisions. A legal expert who has served as a member of the revision committee several times interpreted, “Creating an amendment without a committee is proof that the amendment is being rushed and is a somewhat political amendment.” An official from the Ministry of Justice said, “Even without a committee, we are listening to the opinions of officials in various ways.” It is known that the Ministry of Justice is considering adding the clause 2 of Article 382-3 of the Commercial Act, which states that ‘directors must strive to protect the legitimate interests of shareholders while performing their duties’ in this amendment. In addition, it is being considered to include in the amendments the autonomy of merger ratios among listed affiliates and the obligation to disclose corporate value evaluation results in the event of a merger. On this day, the Ministry of Justice announced, “Although we are pursuing revisions to the Commercial Act and the Capital Markets Act, nothing has yet been decided on the content and timing of announcement.” It is known that there is some confusion within the Ministry of Justice regarding such amendments. This is not only because a committee composed of external experts has not been formed, but also because the opinions of actual stakeholders, such as businessmen, have only just begun to be heard. There are many different opinions from outside. A professor at a law school said, “There is no social discussion about the extent of legitimate interests among the amendments that strive to protect (shareholders’) legitimate interests.” He added, “For example, if you push for revision of the Commercial Act without agreement on whether it is a legitimate interest if all the procedural matters are met, there is bound to be controversy.” Bang In-tae, an attorney at Daeryun Law Firm, also said, “As minority shareholders can file lawsuits directly against management, the shareholder representative lawsuit system under Article 403 of the Commercial Act has also been introduced.” He said, “This increased burden on management not only increases corporate costs, but also carries the risk of internal information related to the company’s core competitiveness being disclosed to the outside world.” [View full article] - Ministry of Justice reviews provisions on ‘directors’ efforts to protect shareholders’… Controversy over passing the revision committee (link) 2026-05-13T12:07:59.489Z https://www.daeryunlaw.com/en/broadcast/3817 In a rental lawsuit, the burden of proving the rental lies with the plaintiff. Judge Dong-Hyeon Yoon of the Western Branch of the Busan District Court said, “There is no objective basis to prove the rental.”A ruling was made to dismiss the plaintiffs' loan claim, judging that the money transferred by the deceased husband to his brother-in-law's account during his lifetime was a 'gift'. It was confirmed on the 14th that Judge Dong-Hyun Yoon of the 4th Civil Division, Western Branch of the Busan District Court ruled against the plaintiff on the 5th of last month in a lawsuit claiming the return of the loan that the wife and children of the deceased, Mr. Sent 60 million won. According to Mr. B, it was a way of repaying his sister and Mr. B for taking good care of him while he was living isolated from his family for a long time. However, a few years later, when Mr. A suddenly passed away, the conflict over ‘60 million won’ began in earnest. Mr. A's wife and children, who belatedly learned of the whereabouts of the large sum of money, filed a lawsuit against Mr. B for the loan. They argued at the trial that the 60 million won that Mr. B and his wife received from Mr. A was a 'loan'. At that time, Mr. B and his wife were in a situation where they had to urgently purchase an apartment, but due to lack of funds, they borrowed money from their family member, Mr. A. In response, Mr. B countered, saying, “There was no reason to borrow money because the funds for the purchase of the apartment were already sufficient.” Judge Dong-Hyun Yoon of the Western Branch of the Busan District Court, who heard the case, said, “There is insufficient basis to admit that 60 million won is a loan. The plaintiffs did not know the details of the transfer, and based the lawsuit based on various circumstances. Judge Dong-Hyun Yoon also ruled that “the defendant’s claims are persuasive, as when combining various evidence, it appears that the deceased, who transferred the money around 2020, depended for his living on his younger brother and his wife, not on his own family,” and dismissed all of the plaintiffs’ claims. Attorney Kim Hae-rin of Daeryun Law Firm, who represented the defendant B, who won the case in this trial, said, “In the rental lawsuit, if the defendant is different from the plaintiff, “If the fact of the rental itself is not acknowledged, the burden of proof as to whether it was a rental lies with the plaintiff,” he said. Attorney Kim Hae-rin continued, “The plaintiffs had little interaction with Mr. A for a long time, so they were not even aware of the remittance.” He added, “It appears that the legal effect was not recognized because they claimed the loan without any related materials such as a money consumption loan agreement.” [Read full article] - Court says, “60 million won sent to my brother-in-law... was a ‘gift’ as the loan could not be proven” (Shortcut) 2026-05-13T12:21:36.333Z https://www.daeryunlaw.com/en/broadcast/3809 The court ruled that it was an unfair decision not to allow the establishment of an avoidance facility due to opposition from residents. According to the legal community on the 11th, the 1st administrative division of Cheongju District Court recently ruled on August 22 that Chungju City will cancel the notice of disallowance of waste treatment business that Chungju City gave to Mr. A, a waste treatment plant operator. Mr. A submitted a waste treatment business plan to Chungju City in January 2023 and received a conditional notification of suitability. It was suggested that 'business site management, including maintenance of prevention facilities, will be thoroughly implemented to prevent odors from occurring.' Afterwards, Mr. A prepared facilities and equipment according to the contents of the business plan and submitted an application for a permit to the city, but the permit was rejected. The reason was that opposition complaints were received from residents who raised the odor problem. Mr. A then filed an administrative lawsuit, and the court ruled in favor of Mr. A, saying, "The opposition complaints from nearby residents cannot be regarded as a requirement for a waste disposal business license." He agreed. He then explained, “We took into account the fact that odor prevention facilities were scheduled to be installed, the odor measurement values when the facility was in operation were below the emission standards, and there was no objective evidence to prove that serious odors were likely to occur.” He also said, “After the plaintiff received notification of suitability for the business plan, he invested a lot of time, money, and effort to install the facilities, etc.” and added, “Due to the disposition, all of the above efforts were in vain and he suffered a huge disadvantage.” He added. Attorney Daeryun Lee Dong-eun, a law firm representing Mr. A, emphasized, "According to the Waste Management Act, related facilities must not be rejected or notified as inappropriate for reasons such as simple opposition to installation." He added, "Dispositions in such cases should be viewed as illegal as an abuse of discretion or a measure that deviates from the scope." He added, "Waste treatment facilities are facilities that are absolutely necessary for us, but at the same time, they are facilities that are not preferred," and "It is difficult to be completely free from the influence of the local community. “Administrative offices must make decisions based on objective and specific data,” he pointed out.

On August 23, the Criminal Division 1 of the Eastern Branch of the Busan District Court (Chief Judge Lee Dong-gi) sentenced Mr. He asked for a loan. At first, Mr. A immediately repaid the borrowed amount and acted as if he was keeping his promise, but a few hours later, he deceived Mr. B by asking for a re-deposit due to an account error. Mr. A's requests for money continued thereafter. Complaining of difficult circumstances such as betrayal by a business partner, Mr. A persuaded Mr. B that he would repay the loan by opening a high-limit negative bank account. In this way, the total amount paid by Mr. B to Mr. A over 20 days amounts to 2.49 billion won. The court said, “The defendant deceived his parents for the purpose of using it for internet gambling, etc.,” and “Considering this, the nature of the crime is bad, and the defendant’s history of fraud and the fact that he has not been forgiven by the victim. “Considering this, there is a high possibility of criticism.” The fact that Mr. A had repaid about 68% of the borrowed money was taken into account as a favorable circumstance, but Mr. A was sentenced to prison. Attorney Kim Jin-won of Daeryun Law Firm (Limited), who acted as the victim’s legal representative, said, “There are frequent cases of borrowing money under the pretense of pretending to repay even when there is no ability to repay,” and added, “This case is not a simple financial issue. “It is a serious crime of extorting money,” he said. He added, “Postponing the promised repayment date is also beneficial to property, so in this case, the crime of fraud is also established.” [View full article] - Academy director who deceived parents and extorted billions of won...

On August 28, Judge Jeon Jae-hyun of Suwon District Court's Seongnam Branch, Criminal Division 5, sentenced Mr. A, a safety manager indicted on charges of professional negligence, saying, "The defendant is not guilty." Mr. A worked as an on-site safety manager at a single-family home construction site in 2020. At the time, Mr. B, a daily worker working at the site where Mr. A was in charge, lost his footing and fell to the floor 1.5 meters below while working on attaching plasterboard to the third floor ceiling. In this accident, Mr. B suffered serious injuries, including traumatic subarachnoid hemorrhage, which required 84 days of treatment. In this incident, the key issue was whether Mr. A, the safety manager, had taken all necessary safety measures at the scene. The prosecution decided that Mr. A was responsible for the accident and indicted him for failing to fulfill his duty of care. However, the court's judgment was different. Judge Jeon Jae-hyun of the Seongnam Branch of the Suwon District Court, who heard this case, said, "It is difficult to say that it has been proven beyond a reasonable doubt that the defendant violated his duty of care at work and caused injury to the victim based on the evidence presented by the prosecutor." Specifically, based on the photos of other buildings at the scene submitted by the lawyer and the statements of Mr. B's colleagues, it was said, “It is possible to say that the defendant fulfilled his duty of care to prevent falls by installing wooden scaffolding on the entire floor before the accident in this case occurred,” and “As the ceiling work was completed, the defendant removed all the scaffolding, but it appears that Mr. B suffered an accident while working on another folding scaffolding (commonly known as ‘Uma’) alone without separate instructions, approval, or consent.” He then said, “Ultimately, there is a possibility that the construction work done by the victim at the time the accident in this case occurred was not work that was ordered or scheduled, and we cannot rule out the possibility that the accident occurred in a way that was difficult for the defendant to predict.” Attorney Na Chang-soo of Daeryun Law Firm, who represented Mr. “We emphasized that safety measures were taken well by securing the photos with difficulty,” he said. Attorney Na Chang-soo also explained, “Based on these points, the court also appears to have ruled that the defendant was negligent in his duty of care and that there was no clear causal relationship between the accident and declared him not guilty.” [View full article] - Serious injury to the head for 12 weeks due to fall at construction site.

Accessibility due to location in Songjeong-dong Expected to handle a variety of tasks ranging from civil and criminal matters to labor disputes Daeryun Law Firm (Limited) announced on September 30 that it will open its 41st branch office in Gimcheon and Gumi and provide local customized legal services. The Gimcheon-gumi branch office is located in Songjeong-dong, the administrative center of Gumi City, and is close to residential areas as well as government offices such as city hall, police stations, and fire stations, and companies, thereby increasing accessibility. In particular, It can be accessed in about 10 minutes from Gumi City Hall, Gumi General Terminal, and Gumi Gasan Industrial Complex, and it plans to provide legal services to the nearby city of Gimcheon as well. In the future, the Gimcheon Gumi branch office plans to resolve legal issues by reflecting the characteristics of the local community in various fields, including civil and criminal cases, divorce, administration, and school violence. In addition, as many companies are concentrated in the Gumi area industrial complex and Gimcheon industrial complex, we plan to handle labor disputes and related legal advisory work as well. Daeryun Kim Kuk-il, CEO of Daeryun, said, "When creating a branch office, we consider regional characteristics as the top priority. This Gimcheon-Gumi office was also planned through careful analysis. We judged that Gimcheon and Gumi are major cities that lead the economy along with Pohang in the Gyeongbuk region, so a variety of legal needs are needed." “Daeryun is cooperating with the head office to provide the same high-quality legal services as the head office at all branch offices across the country,” he said. “Through this opening, we will do our best to provide systematic legal services closer to clients by increasing customer accessibility.” [View full article] Aju Economic Daily - [Law Firm Lounge] Daeryun opens its 41st branch office in Gimcheon-Gumi (Shortcut) Money S - Daeryun Law Firm opens its 41st branch office in Gimcheon and Gumi (Shortcut) 2026-05-10T23:01:10.479Z https://www.daeryunlaw.com/en/broadcast/3764 The court ruled that even if the land was not owned by the owner, he could receive legal protection if he used it for free for a long period of time. The Sokcho branch of the Chuncheon District Court ruled in favor of the plaintiff in a lawsuit related to the establishment of a passage easement filed by the plaintiff A against the land owner B in August. Mr. A purchased land in Yangyang, Gangwon-do in 2001 and built a house and lived there. Afterwards, he tried to sell the house in 2019, but the real estate agent responded that it was impossible. It was received because it was land with no roads connected to the surrounding roads, so-called 'blind land'. However, Mr. A's position was different. The position was that there had been a passage connecting the land and a general road even before the construction of the house. Mr. A also claimed that when the land was damaged 20 years ago, he had personally restored it and used it as a passage. The court ruled in Mr. A's favor. The court said, "Mr. A has been using the passage as a passage to enter the house since 2003. “(The land) has been in use for more than 20 years, so the conditions for acquiring the right of way will be met by the end of 2023,” he said. “While Mr. A continued to use the passage at issue in this case, the owner, Mr. B, allowed the opening of the passage without taking any special measures, such as imposing a toll,” said Hwang Seo-young, a lawyer at the law firm Daeryun, who represented Mr. A. He added, “The court also took all of these points into consideration. “It appears that Mr. A has acknowledged the right to pass through the land free of charge,” he added.

According to the industry on the 29th, the possibility has emerged between Korea Zinc and Youngpoong-MBK Partners that if MBK acquires Korea Zinc in the future, it can sell it back overseas, and both sides are continuing their conflicting claims of 'yes' and 'no'. Korea Zinc's side claimed, "(Youngpoong-MBK) is highly likely to pursue active monetization by selling Korea Zinc's core technologies or sharing technology with overseas countries such as China," and added, "Considering MBK's speculative private equity nature of recovering investment, we will sequentially proceed with not only dividends from Korea Zinc in the future, but also sales of core assets and personnel restructuring." On the other hand, Youngpoong CEO Kang Seong-du declared at a press conference held on the 27th, "I will never sell the company that MBK Vice Chairman Kim Kwang-il and I own to overseas, including China." Experts are raising the view that Korea Zinc's concerns about this may become reality. Hwang Yong-sik, a professor of business administration at Sejong University, said, "The fact that MBK has a Chinese stake in itself shows a potential possibility (of going overseas)," and "Due to the nature of private equity funds, only money is needed. He claimed, “There are no such things as national resources, national secrets, or technology. If you look at Korea Zinc, there are clear signs of solidarity with partners and Hanwha, and there is a strong feeling of an original partner.” He added, “Because private equity funds are just a ragtag group of people, there is a possibility that it can be dangerous.” Jeong-Hyeon Wi, a business administration professor at Chung-Ang University, said, “It was wrong for Young Poong to join hands with a private equity fund.” “It’s like a poisoned chalice,” he said. He added, “It is highly likely that MBK requested information unfavorable to Youngpoong and Youngpoong accepted it,” adding, “After the merger and acquisition is successful, that will become a huge problem.” Ji Min-hee, an attorney at Daeryun Law Firm who specializes in corporate affairs, also said, “In fact, when private equity funds buy or sell companies, they do not care about key national industries. Structurally, it is unavoidable and it will not be important to them.” Experts say there is no way to do anything, especially when concerns become reality. point was pointed out. Attorney Ji Min-hee said, "There was a bill to amend the law to prevent private equity funds from leaking technology last year, but I understand that it is still difficult to realistically sanction it. And in fact, it is a leak, and it is difficult to be punished for this because it is buying and selling a company. This part of the law also needs to be revised more thoroughly." Son Seung-woo, director of the Korea Intellectual Property Research Institute, also said, "In the past, methods such as bringing in engineers from overseas were chosen, but these days, M&A. “In particular, there are many cases where private equity funds such as MBK are taking the lead,” he said. “However, there is no proper way to regulate this.” At the same time, he pointed out, "Korea Zinc is a very important company in terms of economic security as it is leading the way in the zinc and nickel fields, as well as secondary batteries and new and renewable energy. However, it seems that the National Assembly members and the Ministry of Trade, Industry and Energy still lack the awareness to protect it." Experts also mentioned problems that may arise during the process of sale, resale, and at least two acquisitions. Professor Kwon Jae-young of Kyung Hee University's Law School argued, "If MBK buys it and then sells it, management rights will be transferred once again. Management rights will change at least twice." He added, "We cannot guarantee the continuity of management and employment. No matter how much MBK tries to maintain employment, it will be sold once again later and what other companies will do with employment is another problem." Professor Kwon also said that this incident will serve as an opportunity to create a sense of crisis for other blue-chip companies as well. analyzed. Professor Kwon said, "If Korea Zinc, which has the largest market share in the world, is taken over by a private equity fund, it could send a signal that even companies with a solid market share like Korea Zinc will not be at ease." Meanwhile, on the 24th, Korea Zinc applied to the government for a ruling on whether the 'patented technology for processing high nickel precursor', a secondary battery material, is a national core technology. If the technology is determined to be a national core technology, the government will have the authority to approve mergers and acquisitions by foreign companies for economic security reasons.

She continued, "Some people are coming out who really believe the false information. “I am suffering a lot because my personal information is being exposed,” she complained.

According to the local legal community on the 23rd, the Ulsan Gangnam Office of Education's School Violence Countermeasures Deliberation Committee issued a 'no action' disposition to middle school student A, who was accused of bullying a classmate at the same school last February. Miss A was accused of being a perpetrator of school violence last year after being reported by classmate B, who was attending the same school. It was pointed out. It was a claim that “Mr. A felt ashamed because she made ridiculing or teasing remarks when she was with other classmates.” However, Ms. A completely denied the claims, saying, “I was not a close friend of Ms. B” and “there were no special incidents or anecdotes at all.” Attorney Hwang Gyu-hwa of the law firm Daeryun, who participated in the school violence committee deliberation process as an assistant, argued, “The report was made without clear evidence.” Attorney Hwang said. “Even some of what Ms. B claims is ambiguous because she heard it from others,” he said, emphasizing that “Ms. A has not done any of the things reported.” He also said, “This report is another wound and a great shock to innocent Ms. A,” and expressed her opinion, saying, “A wise decision must be made to prevent any student from being unfairly labeled as a perpetrator of school violence.” The Ulsan Gangnam Office of Education School Violence Committee, which reviewed the case, said A decision was made to 'no charges' against Miss A. Attorney Hwang said, "Recently, as the types of school violence recognized as school violence, such as verbal violence and cyberbullying, have become more diverse, the number of related reports is increasing." He also pointed out, "There are many reports of false accusations or counter-injury because reports can be filed with just the victim's statement." He also added, "If you are subject to a disposition related to school violence, your future personal information, such as college entrance exams, can be greatly affected, so if you are involved in school violence, it is best to get help from a professional lawyer as soon as possible." “It’s important,” he emphasized.

(Shortcut) 2026-05-14T01:15:47.585Z https://www.daeryunlaw.com/en/broadcast/3692 It is said that there are many lawyers who study Myungri (the Four Pillars of Fortune) as a hobby. When you were a college entrance exam student, you were anxious, so you probably read your fortune a lot for fun, and this often led to studying. However, it is said that there are similarities between law and Myeongri studies, so there are many lawyers who study Myeongri studies. That's right, if you study Myeongnihak, you can find parts that are consistent with legal interpretation. When interpreting the law, we look at which laws and provisions to apply in specific factual situations and whether the facts meet the requirements for application of the provisions. In some cases, more than one law or provision may apply. For a thorough legal review of a specific case, all relevant legal issues and applicable legal provisions must be reviewed. In this process, attention must be paid to the interpretation of the provisions' principles and exceptions. If the interpretation is ambiguous, such as whether an exception applies, look for precedents. However, if a precedent phrase is applied carelessly simply because it matches this specific case at first glance, it may lead to erroneous conclusions. Because every case is as different as the number of cases.Practice is more complicated. In order to solve a specific case, you must not only know the law, but also world affairs. For example, let's say there is a defect liability case during a transaction between two companies. The problem cannot be solved simply by knowing the legal principles regarding defect warranty liability. In fact, it is possible to use the law to come up with an optimized legal solution by knowing the technology, such as transaction practices and product composition, in the field. In addition, when deciding on a solution for the client, the needs of the client and the other party must also be understood. You can think of it as truly becoming that person or company and then weeding out only the legal issues. In the end, if you are a lawyer, you must be interested in the principles of humans and the world. Now, let's take a look at Myungri. Myeongnihak is a study of metaphysical interpretation. After looking at the designated date and time of birth according to the Universal Calendar, we look at the four major fortunes and great fortune (luck in 10-year units). There are wood, fire, earth, gold, and water properties, but these properties also vary depending on yin and yang, location, and combination. What is important is the relationship and context of cases that are intertwined with the law. Moreover, like the law, there are interpretations of principles and exceptions, so if the interpretation of the exceptions is missed, a completely wrong conclusion will be born (I hope to have an opportunity to provide a detailed explanation next time). For example, when a magician gives career advice to someone, he should not simply conclude, 'You have a "guy" in the business, so become a lawyer.' Injection feeding is dangerous. Just as we interpret the law by examining its legislative intent and overall context, we must examine the attributes of the officer and the legal profession respectively. Some people may be a good fit for a lawyer because they are not interested in instigation. Isn't it possible that he is a person who views the legal profession as a means of earning a good living rather than a government position? Without being able to think about the ways of the world with such flexible thinking and through rote learning such as memorizing 'A government official is a government position,' you cannot be qualified to give advice under the pretext of freeing evil spirits from someone's life. In the end, when magicians solve someone's spell, they must have flexible thinking and an understanding of the flow of the world and the individual. The more I study Myeongnihak, the more I think that ironically, life is about pioneering. As philosopher John Rawls, who provided the foundational philosophy of our Constitution, proposed the concept of 'the barrier of the veil', chance factors determine quite a lot in life. But we find our negative freedom there too. The same goes for fortune telling. Myeongri studies only tell me my fortune like the barrier of the veil. What makes me live within it is ‘me’. In the end, I think Myungri also teaches us that we have negative freedom and suggests a lesson to focus on today and practice free will.

According to legal officials, Daeryun Law Firm (Liuhan) was recently confirmed to have submitted a report on the appointment of a lawyer to the Dongbu Police Station in Yongin, Gyeonggi Province, at the request of Student A. In particular, this case has been reported through the media. It is noteworthy that Daeryun Law Firm (Yuhan) was the first to offer a helping hand. Student A is accused of property damage for ripping off a flyer attached to the elevator mirror of an apartment in Yongin, Gyeonggi-do, where he lives, last May. The flyer was written by a residents' self-governing organization in the apartment, and was an unauthorized post that did not have the stamp of the management office. At the time, Student A was known to have removed the flyer without any intention when it blocked his view while looking in the mirror in the elevator. However, the police charged Student A with property damage and forwarded the case to the prosecution. As the basis for the indictment, the police cited a 2022 Pyeongtaek branch precedent that states that in order to legally remove a post without the consent of the management entity, you must request voluntary removal from the person who posted it or file a civil suit for compulsory execution. Student A's parents raised their objections through Kookmin Shinmun High School and the media, and when this incident became known, complaints poured in on the website of the East Police Station in Yongin, Gyeonggi Province, pointing out excessive investigation. Even the police chief responded and expressed his intention to apologize, but the public criticism has not subsided. As the controversy continued, the Gyeonggi Southern Police Agency, a superior agency of the Yongin Eastern Police Station, decided to conduct a supplementary investigation and received the case back from the prosecution. Attorney Kim Da-eun of Daeryun Law Firm, who represented Student A, said, “I had no choice but to be angry after hearing about Student A’s case through the media.” In addition, he said, “This case is an example that shows the true face of a police investigation that handled the case mechanically without specific validity,” and pointed out, “Even if the police who started the reinvestigation decide not to forward the case, this is only a stopgap measure to calm the situation.” Attorney Kim Da-eun said, “Currently, Ms. He added, “Continued interest from society and sincere self-reflection from the case handling agency are likely to be needed.” [View full article] Law Leader - A middle school girl who was sent to the prosecution for taking out a leaflet...

The MOU signing ceremony held at Daeryun Law Firm (Limited) Jeju office on the 12th was attended by Daeryun Law Firm (Limited) CEO Kim Kuk-il, attorney Ko Seung-seok, Jeju Medical Association President Kim Chang-taek, and Jeju Halla University professor Jeong Mu-sang. Daeryun Law Firm (Limited) Medical Litigation Group is based on a variety of medical professionals, including pharmacists, oriental medicine doctors, experts from hospitals, and lawyers who were former examiners of the Medical Dispute Conciliation and Arbitration Service.

They immediately disposed of the free gifts provided after signing up for mutual aid and 'cashed them out.' Among the criminal gang members who committed a 'home appliance rental fraud' worth 1.3 billion won by taking advantage of credit delinquent people who were unable to get loans from banks, a ruling was made to sentence the main offender to prison and the accessory offender to probation. On July 15, the Cheonan Branch Criminal Division of the Daejeon District Court (Presiding Judge Jeon Gyeong-ho) sentenced Mr. A (41 years old), who was arrested and indicted on charges of fraud (fraud) on the Act on the Aggravated Punishment of Specific Economic Crimes, to two years in prison and three years of probation, and sentenced the other defendants, who were the main criminals in this case, to three years in prison and two years and six months in prison, respectively. They signed up for specific products of the mutual aid company. It is known that a total of 1.3 billion won in profit was obtained by using the so-called electronic product ‘durable system’ (a new Internet word meaning ‘saving myself’), which is a variant loan in which expensive products such as electronic products provided through rental contracts are sold directly to a third party and the necessary funds are paid. Among them, Mr. While making the offer, he was accused of introducing the victim company's products and making a profit by disposing of the expensive products provided to the loan seekers after subscribing to the mutual aid product. Most of the loan seekers were poor credit and had financial problems, so it was found that they did not have the intention or ability to pay mutual aid and home appliance installments normally even if they signed up for the mutual aid product. Mr. A conspired with other defendants who were acquaintances in particular to run 'durable goods' through internet cafes, etc., centered around his hometown. After recruiting prospective borrowers, he committed the above crimes 165 times and was indicted on charges of misappropriating goods worth 500 million won. In this criminal trial, Mr. A's lawyer emphasized that the defendant was not the main criminal in this case and argued for consideration by revealing that the market value of the property in this case was lower than the amount of misappropriation stated in the indictment. Criminal Division 1 of the Cheonan Branch of the Daejeon District Court, which tried this case, said, “The defendants systematically divided their roles and committed the crime. The so-called 'durable system' crime not only causes enormous financial damage to the victim company, which is the direct victim, but also has great social and economic harm in that it ultimately worsens the economic situation of many borrowers who were in a difficult situation where even small loans are difficult," he said. “It cannot be done,” the court ruled. As for the reason for sentencing Mr. A, the court said, “It is an advantageous situation that the victim company does not want to punish Mr. A as some of the damages have been repaid and agreed to, and that the company has generally acknowledged and reflected on the crime from the beginning of the investigation,” said Lim Hye-jin, a lawyer at Daeryun Law Firm (Lihan), who represented Mr. A in this case, “As the pattern of fraud crimes has become more diverse, demands for stronger punishment for types of organized fraud are increasing.” “It is not uncommon to see severe punishment for new types of fraud, etc.,” he said. “Fortunately, in this case, we were able to avoid court detention by emphasizing that he was an accessory to the incident and not the main offender, and by making it clear that the actual proceeds of the crime were not large.” [View full article] - 500 million won defrauded through ‘mutual assistance loan’ electronic product rental fraud...

A man in his 40s who was handed over to trial on charges of working as a cash collector in a voice phishing organization is attracting attention. On June 24, the Seoul Eastern District Court's Criminal Division 1 (Presiding Judge Park Hee-geun) acquitted Mr. A, in his 40s, who was indicted on fraud charges on June 24. Mr. A was found not guilty last year on June 24. In May, he received a check worth 105 million won from two voice phishing victims and was accused of delivering it to a secondary collector. Mr. A, who had been struggling to make a living for a long time due to his chronic illness and the impact of COVID-19, registered his resume on a job search site to get a job. Mr. A received a real estate survey job from a company official, signed an employment contract, performed actual related work, and received an allowance. Afterwards, Mr. A received additional instructions to recover the deposit for the apartment, went to the location, collected the envelope containing the check, and then delivered it to another collection agency, implicating him in a voice phishing crime. The court said, “Given the circumstances in which the defendant received the check without supporting evidence and handed it to another person, it is reasonable to suspect the defendant’s intention to commit fraud,” but added, “The evidence submitted by the prosecutor alone shows that the defendant colluded with a voice phishing organization or had an unintended intention to commit fraud.” “It is difficult to say that the facts have been proven beyond a reasonable doubt,” he said, giving the reason for the acquittal. He also added, “Looking at the fact that the defendant conducted an apartment investigation for a considerable period of time and the circumstances in which he sensed something strange and went to the police station right after the crime, there is a high possibility that the defendant, like the victims, was deceived by the sophisticated techniques of the voice phishing organization and carried out the collection.” Attorney Park Seong-dong of Daeryun Law Firm (Limited), who was in charge of defending the case, said, “He committed the voice phishing crime himself.” “The methods are becoming more sophisticated and sophisticated to the extent that it is difficult to know that you are involved in a crime unless you have experienced it,” he said. “There are many cases where, even if one is unfairly involved in a case, the intentional act of failure is recognized and the person is punished.” He also pointed out, “In this case, it was proven in detail that the defendant himself was not aware of his involvement in the voice phishing crime, leading to a not guilty verdict.” “It is bound to have a significant impact on the judgment of guilt or innocence,” he explained.

Lawyer Seo-Hyung Lee, a medical expert with a pharmacist's license who also has expertise in the healthcare field, including pharmaceuticals and biotechnology, said, “The ability of a lawyer in charge of medical litigation in the early stages is most important... A scale capable of providing advice on the operation of hospitals and clinics.” Recently, as the scope of medical litigation has become more diverse, the need for medical lawyers is increasing. Professional legal advice is being demanded not only for simple medical malpractice lawsuits, but also for various legal issues such as hospital business suspension, office manager hospitals, assault on medical personnel, and administrative dispositions. In line with this trend, 'Daeryun Medical Litigation Group' is taking systematic action to respond to various medical disputes, led by attorney Kyung-rok Oh, a former judge specializing in medical litigation. In addition, it is accelerating the recruitment of talented individuals with professional licenses to provide legal services. Attorney Jae-yoon Lee, who recently joined the medical litigation group, is considered a talented person with abundant practical experience. After graduating from the Department of Oriental Pharmacy at the College of Pharmacy, he obtained a license as an herbal pharmacist and worked for a long time as an examiner at the Medical Dispute Mediation and Arbitration Center. Attorney Lee Jae-yoon said, "Thanks to my intensive study of the human body and drugs in college, I am handling medical litigation smoothly. As an examiner, I have handled over 400 medical cases. At Daeryun, I have the experience of thinking deeply about why medical institutions and patients are in conflict and what the solution is. “It seems to be shining,” he said. Attorney Seo-Hyung Lee, another member of the medical litigation group, is also a medical expert with a pharmacist’s license. Attorney Lee worked as a senior researcher at Seoul National University's Law Research Institute and as a research professor at Ewha Womans University's Biomedical Law Research Institute. Attorney Lee has also served as a member of the Institutional Bioethics Committee and Data Review Committee at several university hospitals, and is also prominent in the healthcare field, such as health care, pharmaceuticals, and biotechnology. Attorney Seohyung Lee said, "I was responsible for reviewing whether clinical research was conducted legally and whether personal information was properly protected during the process." He added, "In addition, government agencies. He said, "I have solidified my position as a medical lawyer by providing advice on medical law." He added, "Recently, medical litigation has gone beyond simple disputes between doctors and patients, and includes various fields such as pharmaceutical law, medical device law, and bioethics law." He explained, "We are focusing on providing comprehensive medical solutions." When asked about the special strengths of the Daeryun Medical Litigation Group, attorney Seo-hyeong Lee chose "speed." Due to the nature of medical litigation, which takes at least a year due to the difficult verification process, the stress experienced by clients is bound to increase, so lawyer Lee emphasized that he is working hard to proceed quickly with litigation. In fact, Daeryun Medical Litigation Group is collaborating with the Digital Forensics Group to quickly collect the necessary evidence, and has formed a task force with experts in various fields to respond to each legal procedure, such as identifying facts and applying for appraisals. In addition, it is collaborating with affiliated experts such as accountants, tax accountants, and labor attorneys to provide medical services to hospitals and clinics. It is also excellent at providing general legal advice on operations and has currently entered into MOUs with a number of hospitals and clinics. Attorney Lee Jae-yoon cited Daeryun's 'accessibility' as an advantage. He explained that you can apply for consultation through branch offices located throughout the country, and if necessary, you can also communicate directly with a professional lawyer through a video system. Unlike general cases, medical lawsuits are not easy to win, so they come with significant hardships. Therefore, the sense of accomplishment when receiving a favorable judgment in a difficult situation is bound to be special. Attorney Seohyung Lee said that he will never forget the experience of winning a lawsuit worth 1.2 billion won by carefully preparing medical records and physical evaluations. Attorney Lee Jae-yoon said that the most memorable case was the case in which he took on a case that lost in the first trial, corrected a terminological error in an important concept, and led to a victory through re-appraisal. In the case of medical litigation, the help of a professional lawyer with abundant practical experience is essential, but in the actual field, there are many people who are reluctant to pursue medical litigation. This is because long litigation periods and high litigation costs are a hindrance. Attorney Lee Jae-yoon explained, "In the case of the Medical Dispute Mediation and Arbitration Board, it does not have the authority to make a compulsory ruling, so if there is a large difference in the positions of both sides, it is much more efficient to proceed with litigation immediately." He added, "In particular, in the case of medical litigation, there are many parts that are not carried out in other litigation, such as evaluation procedures, so the capabilities of an experienced professional lawyer are more important than anything else." Attorney Seo-hyung Lee also said, "Early response is the most important in medical litigation as well." “It is advisable to proceed with the dispute efficiently with the help of a medical lawyer from the beginning,” he added.

(▶Refer to the August 26 Korea Economic Daily report ‘[Exclusive] There was another incident of ‘neglecting a mentally ill person’… Bereaved family plans to sue police’) According to the legal community on the 4th, Daeryun Law Firm, which is representing Mr. Park’s bereaved family, filed a lawsuit with the Seoul Central District Court on the 27th of last month, demanding that the Korea Institute for Occupational Health and Environment pay approximately 320 million won, which is the amount of damages for Mr. Park’s death plus 5% annual interest on delay. raised. Marine Hospital is an affiliated institution of the Korea Occupational Health and Environment Research Institute. The bereaved family claims that the bereaved family suffered property damage of approximately 250 million won based on the fact that Mr. Park had been generating income equivalent to that of a city daily worker before his death. In addition, 50 million won in alimony for mental suffering and approximately 5.7 million won in funeral expenses were also claimed. They also separately requested delayed damages calculated at a rate of 5% per annum from April 18, when the fatal accident occurred, to the date of service of the complaint, and 12% per annum from the next day until the date of full repayment. In addition, on the 2nd, the bereaved family filed a complaint against four medical staff at Marine Hospital to the Yeongdeungpo Police Station in Seoul on charges of professional negligence causing death and violation of medical law. Attorney Han Min-young of the Daeryun Medical Dispute Response Group, a law firm representing the case, explained, “As the cause of death was not clearly determined even through the National Forensic Service autopsy, we decided that a police investigation was necessary to determine whether Mr. Park’s death was caused by the hospital’s negligence.” Mr. Park attempted self-harm on April 18 and reported himself to the police, and was admitted to Marine Hospital at the request of the police. Mr. Park was found dead at 6 a.m. the next day, about 8 hours after being hospitalized at 10 p.m. that day. At the time of his death, Mr. Park was found lying face down on the bed with his thighs caught between the head of the bed and the wall of the isolation room. The bereaved family claims that the direct cause of death was that Mr. Park did not receive appropriate medical treatment despite calling the medical staff several times, and that he was left unable to properly control his body for about 4 hours. According to the mental health project's isolation and obsession guidelines, when patients are isolated in the mental health department, observation and evaluation must be conducted at least every hour, but it was confirmed through CCTV footage that this was not observed at all.

A second lawsuit is inevitable. As fraud damages surrounding the so-called 'art tech', which profits by investing in art, continue to rise, Daeryun Law Firm, in charge of the related class action lawsuit, took legal action by filing a complaint. Daeryun submitted a complaint against Gallery K, a large art tech company, to the Financial Crimes Investigation Unit of the Metropolitan Investigation Division of the Seoul Metropolitan Police Agency at 11 am on the 2nd. The target of the complaint is Gallery K and its CEO and division head. They signed a 'consignment rental contract' that stipulates paying about 7-9% of the purchase price every month as a usage fee to investors who purchased art through Gallery K. They promised investors, "Once we sign the contract, we will pay the consignment rental fee for 3 years, and if there is a request for resale after 3 years, we will resell it at the purchase price." At the same time, they lured investors by emphasizing that if the artwork in question was not sold for a month, Gallery K would purchase it directly and guarantee the principal. Afterwards, contrary to the promise, there were many victims who were unable to recover their investment money. Investment money was paid in a reversal manner... Damage amount: 1 billion won Gallery K, established in December 2017, increased every year to ▲ 13 billion won in sales in 2020 ▲ 24.5 billion won in 2021 ▲ 54.6 billion won in 2022 ▲ 66.3 billion won in 2023. Last year, it carried out aggressive marketing, including selecting movie actor Ha Jung-woo as an advertising model. Gallery K is also suspected of misappropriating the money by paying only a portion of the money owed to artists and using the remaining amount as consignment fees and investments. According to Daeryun, victim A purchased an artist's work for 60 million won in 2021 and signed a rental contract. Gallery K notified that the company's situation has recently become difficult, so it can no longer pay rental fees and resale has also become impossible. Another victim, Mr. B, also paid 52 million won and purchased two works of art, but received a similar notice. They asked Gallery K where the art pieces they purchased were stored, but reportedly did not receive an answer. To date, only 18 victims have expressed their intention to sue Daeryun, and the amount of damage has been confirmed to be approximately 1 billion won. Daeryun's lawyer Kim Myeong-seok said, "Gallery K appears to have operated the company in a so-called Ponzi scheme, paying purchase money received from subsequent investors to existing investors without having a stable profit structure," and added, "As the money was received after promising to pay investors the full amount of the investment or an amount exceeding this, it is subject to regulations on quasi-receipt practices. He explained, “It seems that charges of violating the relevant laws can also be applied.” He added, “Currently, additional victims are continuing to request complaints, so we have no choice but to file a second complaint soon.” He added, “As the scale of the damage is very large, the investigative agency must quickly begin the investigation and prove the full extent of the crime.” [View full article] Money S - "Damage amount is 1 billion won"...

Attorney Park was appointed as a prosecutor at the Ansan Branch of the Suwon District Prosecutors' Office in 2013.

The motive for filing the complaint is clearly revealed.”A case has emerged in which a man in his 70s, who was sent to the prosecution with a recommendation for indictment on charges of forcibly molesting and abusing his 13-year-old granddaughter, was acquitted after the motive for the false accusation was revealed. The Changwon District Prosecutors' Office recently asked suspect A (71 years old), who was sent to the prosecution on charges of the Special Act on the Punishment of Sexual Crimes, such as forced molestation and child abuse due to kinship ('Sexual Violence Punishment Act') and the Child Welfare Act, 'due to insufficient evidence.' The reason for the decision not to indict was the prosecution's decision to not indict, saying, "Considering that no specific evidence was found to support the accuser's statement, and that there was no mention of molestation during the psychological counseling process, it is difficult to view the statement as credible." The crimes of forced molestation, quasi-rape, and quasi-forcible molestation due to kinship are stipulated to be punishable by 'five years or more of fixed-term imprisonment' under the Sexual Violence Punishment Act, and if found guilty, most are sentenced to imprisonment. This is a case. According to the prosecution, Mr. A has been accused of habitually molesting and abusing his granddaughter, Ms. B, since 2019. Ms. B (10 years old in 2019) claimed that her grandfather, Mr. A (66 years old at the time in 2019), who raised her after the death of her parents, molested her for five years, and sued Mr. A on charges of forcible relative molestation and child abuse. After my parents died, I took care of them for 5 years. However, Ms. B was suffering from mental illness problems such as depression, and as a result, she was exposed to crimes such as conditional dating. When Mr. A found out about this and disciplined Ms. B, Ms. B took revenge and reported to the police that she had been sexually harassed and abused. During the prosecution investigation, Ms. A's lawyer argued that Ms. B made a false complaint due to delusions due to depression and in retaliation against Mr. A, and based on the details of the psychological counseling center and the results of the school investigation, it was confirmed that Mr. A did not molest Ms. B. In addition, it was emphasized that Mr. A faithfully participated in the upbringing of Ms. B, who was left alone, as a guardian, including participating in jobs for the elderly. Mr. A's lawyer, attorney Lee Il-kwon of Daeryun Law Firm (Limited), said, "If there is no possibility of misunderstanding, as in this case, it is likely to be a false accusation. A big issue is revealing the motive to prove the intentionality of the false accusation." “You have to prove your innocence and regain your legitimate rights,” he said.

revitalizing legal services and insurance, is ‘Lawyers’ capabilities and development tasks in response to rapid social change’was. Kim Cheol-soo (bar exam 34th), chairman of the executive committee of the Bar Association, explained the reason for selecting the topic, saying, “We wanted to present a concrete plan on what role lawyers will play in improving the quality of people’s lives by implementing the practical rule of law.” The first symposium was held under the theme of “Generative Artificial Intelligence - Potential Risks and New Direction.” Attendees on this day chose “Responsible AI” as the direction for the era of generative artificial intelligence. He proposed. Byun Sun-yong, a professor of ethics at Seoul National University of Education, said, “If humanity wants to develop and use artificial intelligence, it is important to fulfill its responsibilities holistically, continuously, and in the future,” and explained, “It is important to design responsible artificial intelligence.” He continued, “Responsible artificial intelligence requires all members related to artificial intelligence to take responsibility, manage the potential risks of artificial intelligence, and use artificial intelligence stably to enhance human dignity, the public good of society, and the sustainability of the natural environment.” He explained. At the same time, he suggested, “For the future of humanity, responsibility design must be implemented in the development and use of artificial intelligence to prevent the ‘non-responsibility phenomenon’ from occurring due to the unclear nature of responsibility that we must maintain and the proliferation of responsible entities, and the method of realizing responsibility must be specified based on this.” Jong-gu Jeong (8th episode of Transformation), lawyer at Logos Law Firm, said, “Responsible artificial intelligence is a new direction in the era of generative artificial intelligence,” and “For sustainable AI, “An ecological and international cooperative approach is needed,” he emphasized. Concerns about the use of artificial intelligence were also raised. Kim Ki-won (5th time bar exam), Legislative Director of the Seoul Bar Association, said, “The future that we need to be most cautious about as artificial intelligence develops is that members of society become accustomed to artificial intelligence and their potential capabilities are reduced.” At the same time, he emphasized, “In addition to worrying about solving problems, people should ask themselves to learn how to learn, train, and persevere with their own capabilities.” In addition, on this day, a symposium was held on the following topics: △ Understanding and revitalizing legal service insurance △ Cases of violations of lawyers’ right to defense and their response measures - focusing on disclosure of ACP and defense cases - △ Issues of inheritance, division of reserve and constitutional court - focusing on recent precedents, etc. Lawyer ethics training was held. ● Professor Dae-Hwi Kim was selected as the winner of the Korean Legal Culture Award...

His student is known to have stated in a statement to the prosecution, “(The perpetrator) put his hand inside the person’s underwear under the pretext of giving a massage.” As cases of sexual assault crimes under the pretext of giving a massage continue to occur, questions about the legal standard that distinguishes between the two acts are growing. Experts emphasize that in order to prevent unfair cases for both suspects and victims, it is important to leave evidence of 'intention' in advance. "The victim's 'sexual shame' is the only evidence? Exaggerated" It is true that massage performed for therapeutic or cosmetic purposes must be agreed in advance on the 'scope of treatment' through consent forms and recordings, making it difficult to distinguish from sexual harassment in that it presupposes physical contact. Also, during the procedure, some clothes may have to be removed, so there is usually no closed-circuit television (CCTV) inside the procedure room and it is difficult to find nearby witnesses. According to a 2002 Supreme Court precedent, physical contact, commonly referred to as 'sexual harassment', is punished under Article 298 of the Criminal Act. The provision states that a person who commits an indecent act against another person through assault or intimidation shall be punished by imprisonment for not more than 10 years or by a fine not exceeding 15 million won. The Supreme Court considers that applying tangible force to the body against the other person's will also violates the relevant law under the term 'surprise molestation'. If the victim of forced molestation is a minor, Article 7, Paragraph 3 of the Acheong Act applies and can result in imprisonment for a term of more than two years or a fine of not less than 10 million won but less than 30 million won. In addition, according to Article 20 of the same law (special provisions regarding the statute of limitations), the statute of limitations under the Criminal Procedure Act does not apply. It is known that the 'sexual shame' felt by the victim is usually the standard for determining whether physical contact, such as massage, constitutes forcible molestation. However, experts point out that the interpretation of the law is somewhat exaggerated. As subjectivity is greatly involved, the explanation is that there must be consistent statements for sexual shame to be recognized in the trial. In fact, in 2020, the court acquitted the defendant, who was an exercise manager, due to the lack of consistency in the victim's statement in a case of forced molestation that occurred at an exercise center in Seongnam, Gyeonggi-do. The victim who received a massage from him was not acknowledged for sexual shame as the part of the body he touched changed during the statement. Choi Hyun-deok, lawyer at Daeryun Law Firm, said, "In sexual crimes, it is often thought that the victim is unconditionally at the center, but in reality, the court considers whether sexual shame applies based on the standards of 'ordinary people' with general social norms." He emphasized, "It is an exaggeration to say that 'the victim's tears are evidence' in a sex crime trial." Byeong-cheol Han, lawyer at Korea Central Law Firm, said, "Of course. He explained, "It is true that the shame felt by the victim is the main criterion for the judgment of investigators such as police at the indictment stage," but added, "However, when entering a trial, a lot of data and context are examined, and even lie detectors are used. Unlike the past, when the court accepted testimony as the only evidence, there is a growing tendency to accurately examine the circumstances." Therefore, experts advise that in order to prevent legal disputes between the suspect and the victim, the scope of the massage treatment must be agreed upon in advance. Attorney Byeong-cheol Han said, "When receiving treatment at a professional massage shop, unnecessary controversy can be reduced if the scope of the treatment is clearly notified in advance and a consent form is obtained." He added, "When giving or receiving a massage in everyday life, it is effective to record the situation at the time. Recording the conversation between the parties is not illegal even without consent." The victim is also innocent. In order to prevent being wrongfully accused, it is important to report promptly and secure evidence to prove the suspect's intent. One lawyer emphasized, “Even if you report it as a forcible molestation, the actual trial will be held at least six months later, so the situation at the time may be confusing during subsequent testimony,” and “You must leave evidence in various ways in advance.” One lawyer said, “As soon as you see the victim, leave a KakaoTalk or text message about the situation at the time to an acquaintance or friend, or if you received sex counseling, keep a diary to increase the evidentiary power of your testimony.” He added, “However, at the level of ‘social convention’, “We must keep in mind that this is shame and take legal action,” he added.

The Seoul Central District Prosecutors' Office announced that Mr. A, who is in his 50s, was arrested and indicted on the 14th on charges of fraud and intimidation. Mr. A approached Mr. B, a woman he met through an application early this year, introducing himself as an executive of a foreign company. The two, who had many common interests such as religion, quickly became close and began dating. That's it. Afterwards, Mr. A asked Mr. B to lend him 7.8 million won, saying that he needed to urgently settle the remaining debt owed to his parents. Mr. A's crimes became even bolder. It was revealed that less than a week after receiving 7.8 million won, he once again asked Mr. B to lend him 320 million won. He emphasized that he was receiving an annual salary in the hundreds of millions of won and that if his new business was successful, he could receive performance bonuses worth billions of won. In particular, he reassured Mr. B by promising marriage and saying that he would introduce him to his parents. In response, Mr. B again transferred 320 million won, but Mr. A's attitude was There was a sudden change. He began to verbally abuse Mr. B and even assaulted Mr. B when he asked for a breakup. Due to his continued demands for money and stalking, Mr. B eventually filed a complaint against Mr. A. Mr. A, who was being investigated by the police, was arrested last July, and the prosecution, which took over the case, decided to indict Mr. A. Attorney Lee Gwang-soo of Daeryun Law Firm (Limited), who served as the legal representative for the victim, said, “Mr. He explained, “I lied about all information, including my educational background,” and “Flaunting false information and deceiving the other person as if I had the power to repay is a clear act of deception and constitutes fraud.” He added, “This case is a typical ‘romance scam’ crime that extorts money under the guise of love,” and added, “As the victim is currently complaining of extreme damage to the extent that it is difficult to live a daily life, there is a need for severe punishment.” [View full article] Sports Seoul - Extortion of hundreds of millions of won by showing off wealth... 50-year-old arrested for ‘romance scam’ (link) 2026-05-07T15:02:09.934Z https://www.daeryunlaw.com/en/broadcast/3458 Legal battle over self-rescue plan Prospect Gwangjang, Lin, Daeryun, and Hwa-hyun, litigation representative Nasa Pacific, provide legal advice to the creditors' council with a lawyer specializing in rehabilitation Jipyong, law firms supporting 'TimePv Corporate Rehabilitation', foresee a showdown over the effectiveness of the self-rescue plan before the rehabilitation council on the 30th. The delay in settlement of 'TimePrice' (Timon, WeMakePrice), which has moved to court, is leading to a legal battle between major law firms. In the process of Timef's Autonomous Restructuring Support (ARS) program, a creditors' council was formed to negotiate with Timef over the restructuring plan, and large law firms such as Pacific Law Firm and Gwangjang Law Firm are jumping in one after another, foreshadowing a full-scale tug-of-war within the creditors. View larger imageHorizon vs. Plaza/Pacific/LinAccording to the legal community on the 18th, ahead of the first creditors' council meeting held privately on the 13th, law firms including Gwangjang, Lin, Daeryun, and Hwahyun submitted power of attorney as litigation representatives for creditors. Lin and Daeryun are law firms that have been communicating with affected businesses and individuals by launching a dedicated center and task force (TF) from the beginning of the incident. Creditors of large corporations joined in by appointing large law firms such as Gwangjang. Pacific and others submitted their opinions as representatives of creditors. This means that even if they are not officially in charge of litigation representation, they are representing the interests of creditors by providing legal advice to them. In Pacific, it is known that rehabilitation lawyers from the Future Finance Strategy Center, led by Han Jun-seong, former vice president of Hana Bank, are representing several creditors belonging to the creditors' council. Currently, Timon's creditors are SC First Bank and Simone Asset Management, and WeMakePrice's creditors are SC First Bank and Korea Culture Promotion. Since there are so many creditors, it is highly likely that more law firms will join in the future. The debtor, Timef, applied for corporate rehabilitation to the court on July 29 and appointed Jipyong Law Firm. Jipyong has long served as legal advisor to Q10 Group, the parent company of Timef. Among Jipyeong's representatives, attorney Jang Pom (Judicial Research and Training Institute 39th class) and Seo Dong-cheon (2nd class) are known as corporate rehabilitation experts. However, Jipyong does not plan to take charge of filing criminal complaints or filing charges against executives such as Q10 Group CEO Koo Young-bae, Timon CEO Ryu Gwang-jin, and WeMakePrice co-CEO Ryu Hwa-hyun. It has been reported that Yoo & Yang Law Firm will be handling the criminal case against CEO Koo separately.Chief Justice of the Rehabilitation Court who advocated the ‘principle of equality’At the first creditors' council, TimePrice submitted a self-rescue plan that prioritized repayment of 100,000 small creditors (40,000 Timon and 60,000 WeMakePrice) whose damages amounted to less than 2 million won, but the court effectively rejected it. It is known that Seoul Rehabilitation Court Chief Justice Ahn Byeong-wook expressed a critical opinion citing the ‘principle of equality’ in rehabilitation procedures. It is reported that Chief Justice Ahn expressed his position at the council meeting, saying, “It is against the principle of equality that the same claims are repaid first because they are small amounts, while large creditors are not repaid or the timing of repayment is delayed.” It is expected that a fierce battle of minds among law firms will unfold over the effectiveness of the self-rescue plan before the second council meeting on the 30th. Timef plans to accept the criticisms of the court and creditors and first seek ways to normalize the company. However, creditors are skeptical about the possibility of securing investment funds by the end of this month. A lawyer representing the affected company pointed out, “If an investor does not appear to invest sufficient funds, both the establishment of a new corporation and the rehabilitation plan are uncertain.” Meanwhile, creditors who were not selected as members of the council are reportedly considering filing a constitutional complaint against the Financial Services Commission, the Financial Supervisory Service, and the Ministry of SMEs and Startups.

Large law firms also participate (link) 2026-05-12T11:04:57.467Z https://www.daeryunlaw.com/en/broadcast/3457 I received a question from a Hong Kong lawyer about what Korea's 'Advance Medical Directive' system is like. It is said that you are researching the institutionalization of Hong Kong's advance medical directive system. This involves preparing related decisions in advance in case a patient is unable to make medical decisions, and includes the intention to discontinue life-sustaining treatment. In other words, it is a type of euthanasia as a system for discontinuing life-sustaining treatment. Euthanasia is broadly divided into four types. On one axis are active and passive, and on the other axis are others and oneself. In other words, death is actively chosen by others, actively by oneself, passively by others, and passively by oneself. In Korea, the 'Life Sustaining Treatment Decision Act' was first implemented in 2017, and a legal system for discontinuing life-sustaining treatment is in place, but only 'passive euthanasia by others' is allowed and the scope is very limited. According to the Life Sustaining Treatment Decision Act, only patients in the process of dying with no possibility of medical recovery and imminent death are allowed. It is permitted to discontinue measures such as CPR, artificial respiration, and hemodialysis that only meaninglessly prolong the period of the dying process. In this case, either the patient must register an advance directive for life-sustaining treatment (i.e., the same as the advance medical directive above) with the responsible agency in advance, or the patient's family must go through strict procedures and prepare a life-sustaining treatment plan. It is difficult to meet all of these requirements, and there are many ambiguous areas in which it is difficult to determine whether the requirements are met. For example, in reality, the judgment of whether a patient is in the process of dying or simply a 'terminal patient' can become an issue. However, in a survey of 1,000 people conducted by Seoul National University Hospital in 2022, 76.3% of the public said that they were in favor of 'euthanasia'. Specific reasons for approval were 'meaninglessness of remaining life' at 30.8%, 'right to a dignified death' at 26.0%, 'reduction of pain' at 20.6%, 'family pain and burden' at 14.8%, and 'social burden due to medical expenses and care' at 4.6%. In addition, as a result of a 2023 opinion poll of 1,000 people conducted by the Seoul Shinmun and the Korea Public Opinion Research Institute, 81% responded that they were in favor of introducing 'physician-assisted dying', while only 6.7% were opposed. The reasons for being in favor were 'guaranteeing the right to self-determination' at 29.0%, 'relieving pain due to illness' at 27.7%, 'comfortable death' at 23.1%, 'reducing the mental and economic burden on the family' at 18.0%, and 'reducing social burden' at 2.1%. According to these surveys, public opinion is currently positive about euthanasia. Of course, the actual public opinion may differ from this depending on the sample and reliability of the survey, and such public opinion may be the result of not carefully considering the 'right to self-determination regarding death', which is the essence of the euthanasia discussion, as the reason for the approval of Seoul National University Hospital's survey is that 'the meaninglessness of remaining life' is higher than the right to self-determination. Nevertheless, it cannot be denied that our society is currently interested in decisions about a comfortable death. In fact, a total of 924,271 advance directives for life-sustaining treatment have already been registered from 2018, when the life-sustaining treatment decision system was introduced, to May 2022, showing that public awareness and recognition of the life-sustaining treatment decision system is increasing. Ultimately, our society is moving in the direction of expanding the scope of euthanasia. It is moving forward, and ultimately it will happen. It's just a matter of limitations and timing. Last July, the ‘Assisted Death with Dignity Act’ (enactment) was proposed. The law includes provisions that allow terminally ill patients to choose their own time of death. It is an attempt to expand patients' options for death compared to the existing system for discontinuing life-sustaining treatment. Of course, there are still many problems to be solved in the institutionalization of euthanasia or death with dignity, whether passively or actively. There are still many problems that remain, such as the fact that it may not be their true intention, that they may choose euthanasia due to economic or psychological pressure due to lack of medical expenses or the perception of their family, and that the system may be abused or misused. Now, the discussion on whether euthanasia is acceptable will be a process of resolving that problem. No one is born by their own choice. However, in this society where the individual's right to choose to live his or her own life is respected, shouldn't the choice to complete one's life also be respected? Take time to think about what that ‘respect’ means.

According to the legal community on the 16th, Daeryun has narrowed regional gaps in legal services and upgraded legal services as case management is centered on the headquarters, which is the control tower, and each regional office can provide high-quality services. This is in contrast to the negative perception of the lower quality of legal services, which has been considered a chronic problem of existing network law firms. In particular, Daeryun is the first law firm to operate a customer satisfaction center since October of last year and is striving to provide better services by reflecting customer feedback in real time. The purpose is to listen to the voices of actual customers and make improvements. In addition, we are accelerating the recruitment of various experts to provide systematic legal services. We are actively recruiting professional talents active in various fields, including accountants, tax accountants, labor attorneys, and qualified evidence investigation experts. However, there are also negative views within the legal community regarding Daeryun's rapid growth. There is concern that quality management of legal services may be neglected as the size grows. A legal representative said, “Daeryun has branch offices in major regions across the country and is taking on many cases. It is also actively advertising, so small lawyer offices are struggling.” He added, “If we want to resolve the question of ‘whether service quality is good compared to growth,’ which is a chronic problem for network law firms, we will need to show a clear strategy to improve quality.” Contrary to such concerns, Daeryun has maintained a one-team principle and further strengthened the nationwide office cooperation system, showing different actions from other network law firms. The reason the one-team system is possible is because judges, former prosecutors, and key lawyers who have been active in the region reside in major offices and branch offices across the country. In addition, the company moved its headquarters to Yeouido early this year, breaking the mold of a typical law firm with its headquarters located near Seocho-dong, where the court is located. He also received attention for his actions. The relocation of the headquarters was carried out to increase accessibility to corporate customers while expanding the scope of activity to corporate cases. Kim Kuk-il, CEO of Daeryun Law Firm, said, "I understand that many officials are voicing concerns about law firms that take on relatively more cases due to the saturation of the legal market. We are making improvements through continuous monitoring of areas of concern." He added, "Daeryun will not neglect customer-centered management in the future so that customers can conveniently enjoy legal services without worrying about time and place." Concerns raised by some are raised. Regarding the voices, CEO Kim emphasized, “We will continue to manage and repair issues that are considered chronic problems,” and added, “We will continue to think about the quality of legal services with our members in proportion to our growing scale.” Daeryun is operating the largest number of offices nationwide by benchmarking the advanced systems of American law firms. In order to become a global law firm, we are planning to enter Japan this year.

Kangwon Ilbo (CEO: Park Jin-oh) and Daeryun Law Firm (Representative Attorney: Kook-il Kim) signed a 'Business Agreement for Legal Advisory Cooperation' at the Gangwon Ilbo conference room on the 14th. This business agreement is with Gangwon Ilbo. Daeryun Law Firm was established to provide prompt and accurate advice on legal issues that arise while employees are performing their duties. According to the agreement, Daeryun decided to provide legal advice across all business areas of the company through experts in related fields such as lawyers, accountants, and tax accountants at the request of Gangwon Ilbo. Daeryun is the best law firm in Korea composed of lawyers from courts, prosecutors, and police with more than 20 years of legal experience. A team of professional lawyers in each field with unrivaled experience are developing customized legal strategies to protect the rights and interests of clients. In particular, it is possible to provide optimized consulting services by operating a total of 22 specialized centers in each field, including corporate law, taxation, finance, intellectual property rights, criminal affairs, civil affairs/damage compensation, evidence investigation/forensics, and legal counseling. In addition, we have over 40 branches nationwide, including the Seoul headquarters, Chuncheon, and Wonju, the largest number among law firms, and are establishing a specialized legal consultation system anywhere in the country. In the future, we plan to establish overseas corporations, including a Tokyo branch and a New York branch, to grow into a global law firm. Kim Kuk-il, the representative attorney at Daeryun Law Firm, said, “This is our first legal advisory business agreement with a newspaper company, and we will strive to ensure that our win-win cooperation with the Gangwon Ilbo will lead to an improvement in the quality of Daeryun’s local legal services.” Park Jin-oh, president of Gangwon Ilbo, said, “The signing of this business agreement means that Gangwon Ilbo is the best daily newspaper in the country, and Daeryun is a world-class daily newspaper.” “We expect this to be a stepping stone to our growth as a law firm,” he said.

Is there any illegality in 'employee PC surveillance'? When checking messengers such as KakaoTalk using 'screen recording', "There is a high possibility of violating 'secret infringement' under the Internet Act" "Camera recording" for working from home is also illegal. "Consent is not enough... Be sure to check the 'scope of purpose'" "I feel like I am working while being watched. It gives me goosebumps for some reason." Netizen A, who said he had been with the company for three months, recently asked on an online community, "Is there any company that monitors employees' computer screens in real time like this?" He said, “I have to share not only all the files on my personal computer (PC) but also KakaoTalk chats,” and “I’m wondering whether I should continue working for this company.” As telecommuting has emerged as a new type of work environment after COVID-19, demand for programs that monitor employees' PCs in real time is gradually increasing. However, despite the advantages of effective attendance management and security maintenance, it is pointed out that some functions have a high risk of violating current laws, such as invasion of privacy. "There is a high possibility that it will be used for expedient 'messenger surveillance'" The 'camera recording' function for working from home is also controversial. A program that can check, record and save the PC screen in real time during work hours can be operated under current law with employee consent, but the problem is the personal messenger used by employees. This is because if personal messenger content is exposed in real time through screen relay, it may violate Article 49 (Protection of Confidentiality, etc.) of the Information and Communications Network Act. This provision states that one must not infringe, steal, or leak other people's secrets that are processed, stored, or transmitted through information and communications networks. If you violate this, you may be punished by imprisonment for up to 5 years or by a fine of up to 50 million won pursuant to Article 71 of the same law. In fact, monitoring company A openly advertises on its website that it can check messengers such as KakaoTalk, Telegram, and Line used by employees. This is all through real-time screen recording. Regarding this, an official from the company said, "It is possible to 'shade' a specific messenger through settings," but "the authority lies with the administrator." Choi Hyun-deok, lawyer at Daeryun Law Firm, said, "It is of course legal for a company to check 'business conversations' later for the purpose of confirming whether an employee has committed misconduct," but explained, "However, it is difficult to immediately determine whether the messenger conversation captured in the real-time screen recording was for personal purposes. In fact, there is a high possibility that it will amount to wiretapping of personal conversations." Kim Byeong-jun, a lawyer at the Inguayul Law Firm, also analyzed, "As it is technically difficult to check conversations directly through the messenger program server, screen recording-type monitoring seems to have become established." He added, "Expedient monitoring of messenger conversations clearly has an illegal aspect." In addition, as the number of people working from home has recently increased, concerns have arisen about the 'camera recording' function, which was created for the purpose of checking attendance and work attitude. Through this function, companies can check employees working from home in real time through a separate video camera or the camera built into the laptop. It is of the opinion that the camera used for this function may be considered a video information processing device under Article 2 of the Personal Information Protection Act. Previously, famous pet trainer Kang Hyeong-wook was also caught up in suspicions that the company he ran monitored employees through video information processing devices, commonly known as closed-circuit (CCTV) TVs. Attorney Choi Hyun-deok said, "The camera recording function of the monitoring program can be interpreted as a mobile CCTV. According to Article 25, Paragraph 2 of the Personal Information Protection Act, such devices are prohibited from being installed in areas where privacy is violated when collecting information through wired or wireless Internet. 'Inside the house' is judged to be a private area." Experts advise that even if you agree to monitoring, you need to check whether the program is being operated according to its actual purpose and scope of use. In fact, in 2009, the Supreme Court ruled that in order for a company to check messengers and e-mails, even if an employee consents, there must be a justification for the purpose and circumstances that can specifically and reasonably suspect a crime. Attorney Choi emphasized, "In a situation where the form and scope of employee surveillance is controversial, recent lower court results show that the courts are basically becoming increasingly strict with the viewing and leakage of personal information. Even if consent is given, there is a need to carefully consider whether the program was used within the scope that exactly fits the purpose of collecting personal information, such as attendance management and security maintenance." He added, "This issue is still a matter of intense debate in the legal community," and added, "As Supreme Court precedents regarding employee surveillance using new technologies such as real-time recording programs accumulate, clearer legal standards are expected to be established."

At the inauguration ceremony held on the 12th, Daeryun Law Firm CEO Kuk-il Kim, CEO Dong-il Park, CEO Chan-woo Jeong, and Chairman Jae-guk Shim attended the inauguration ceremony. In the first group of college student supporters, 20 college students were appointed as publicity supporters and will support Daeryun Law Firm's publicity activities for three weeks. This support group recruited applicants to provide college students with an opportunity to develop legal expertise and social responsibility. The 20 supporters appointed at the launch ceremony will develop their legal expertise by participating in various programs such as △production of promotional content △practice writing drafts △study of actual cases and precedents △blog posting of winning cases and latest precedents △trial observation △interviews with lawyers.

All first-generation college student supporters will be paid a small activity fee, and benefits such as issuance of a certificate of completion will be provided upon completion of the activity. Only those with excellent program participation and activity will be selected and issued a certificate of excellence. Kim Kuk-il, CEO of Daeryun Law Firm, said, "We sincerely welcome the supporters selected for the first group. We have held this program to foster experts who will lead the legal field. We hope that they will grow into legal experts by combining field experience and theoretical learning through supporter activities."

The Fire Department said, “If you report the lecture, there is no problem.” The legal profession said, “If you don’t report, there is a job-related compensation.” “We must strengthen internal regulations to prevent lectures.” Mr. Kim (55), who runs a small business in Seoul, inquired at a fire station in Seoul to receive ‘on-site fire safety training’, but unlike previous years, received an answer that “you have to pay the fee.” When Mr. Kim, who had been receiving education for free, asked about the exact cost, the answer was, “Please set it within a reasonable range.” In the end, Mr. Kim offered 150,000 won for a 2-hour lecture, and the fire department immediately accepted. According to the Seoul Shinmun coverage on the 12th, it was found that some firefighters are pocketing the lecture costs by diverting the on-site fire safety education, which is supposed to be provided free of charge, to external lectures. This is an abuse of the fact that waiting or schedule adjustments are required to receive free education. The National Fire Agency's position is, “We do not collect lecture fees exceeding the amount set by the Anti-Graft Act, and there is no problem as long as you report after the lecture.” However, as this training is free in principle and contains content directly related to safety, such as fire evacuation methods and CPR, it is pointed out that misuse should be prevented in advance. According to the National Fire Agency, front-line fire departments are forming training teams of 3 to 4 people to provide related training, including on-site fire safety training. Although on-site fire safety training is not mandatory, it is in high demand because it allows you to learn practical fire response methods such as evacuation drills. Just looking at the Seoul Fire and Disaster Headquarters, 221,115 people received training in 2022 and 391,161 people last year. The National Fire Agency said, “Basically, on-site fire safety training is provided free of charge, but if you receive a request for an external lecture, etc., you must report it within 12 days.” “According to the Anti-Graft and Corruption Act, the lecture fee is not a problem as long as it does not exceed 400,000 won per hour or 600,000 won per day.” “I don’t,” he said. However, if the lecture fee is not reported after receiving the training, measures such as caution, warning, and completion of cyber training will be taken along with refund of the lecture fee. An official from the Ministry of Personnel Management explained, “If a firefighter requests training costs without reporting it to his or her agency, it may be a violation of the civil servant’s duty of good faith.” However, since course registration can be made by phone rather than the Internet, it is not easy to catch training that has not been reported. Choi Hyeon-deok, a lawyer at Daeryun Law Firm, said, “Safety training can be seen as a firefighting job for the sake of prevention. If the money was unilaterally requested or not reported after an external lecture, it can also be seen that the public official received money related to his job.” Fire safety experts believed that internal regulations should be strengthened to fundamentally block the induction of paid lectures and the level of disciplinary action for unreported training should be raised. The purpose is to increase reliability and transparency in education. Lee Young-joo, a professor in the Department of Fire and Disaster Prevention at Kyungil University, said, “Accepting even a small amount of money can create a false perception by lowering the credibility of education.” Kim Gyeong-jin, a professor in the Department of Industrial Safety and Fire Protection at Woosuk University, said, “The fire department needs to manage the training schedule uniformly so that free training can be given priority.” [View full article] - ‘Free’ firefighting training while waiting in line, immediate dispatch if you pay… Firefighters selling ‘safety’ (link) 2026-05-13T08:40:58.920Z https://www.daeryunlaw.com/en/broadcast/3420 Independence Hall visit confirmation certificate, corona positive test text falsified. Candidate about to take the 2nd exam for certified public accountant. Ulsan District Court Chief Judge Kim Jeong-jin said, “We take into account the fact that he is a first-time offender and a college student who has just started his social life.”A ruling was made to postpone the prison sentence for a soldier in his 20s who falsified records and left his work station without notice for the purpose of avoiding work. Ulsan District Court Criminal Division 8 Chief Judge Kim Jeong-jin suspended the sentence of six months in prison on July 16 for Mr. A, a man in his 20s, who was indicted on charges of hierarchies for the purpose of avoiding work under the Military Criminal Act, unauthorized departure, obstruction of official duties under the Criminal Act, and using forged electronic records. According to the prosecution's indictment, Mr. A falsified records for the purpose of avoiding work around January 2023. He was charged with interfering with the execution of official duties and leaving without permission. Mr. A decided to take advantage of the system that allows him to receive consolation leave when visiting the Independence Hall of Korea, and went on leave by forging a visit confirmation certificate from a fellow soldier. Mr. A, who had never received a vacation order, committed a crime of interfering with the performance of public officials' duties by accessing the Defense Personnel Information System system and arbitrarily inputting vacation periods. In addition, during the vacation period in the same year, he falsely reported infection even though he did not test positive for the coronavirus, and left his workplace by failing to return to his unit. Ulsan District Court Chief Judge Kim Jeong-jin, who heard this case, said for the reason of sentencing, "The defendant pretended to visit Independence Hall to receive vacation and was infected with the coronavirus. “It is difficult to view the guilt of leaving the workplace without permission under false pretense as a light one,” he said, but added, “We took into account the fact that the defendant is a first-time offender and is reflecting on his mistakes, that he is a college student who has just started his career, and that his family and acquaintances are pleading for leniency.” Kim Jin-won, a lawyer at Daeryun Law Firm (Limited) who represented Mr. A in this criminal trial, said, “The defendant passed the first exam to become a certified public accountant and is about to take the second exam.” In the case of an accountant, if two years had not passed since the end of the probation period after being sentenced to imprisonment, he or she would be disqualified,” he explained.

They have expressed their intention to take an independent path..Especially in the case of Timon, It is understood that independent routes were being considered before this incident.. According to the industry, a few days before the non-settlement of sales proceeds occurred, Timon, A It is said that he visited an e-commerce company and asked about its intention to acquire it..A E-commerce officials "Two days before non-settlement of sales price occurred, Timon has asked about its intention to acquire"as "It seems that they were probably anticipating this situation and were considering an acquisition."said.In the meantime "Under the premise that it will help victims recover K-We can cooperate in commerce"It is understood that WeMakePrice, which has expressed its intention, has also recently changed its position..

The key to securing a mobile phone for the head of finance is identifying the financial crisis... It has been reported that the prosecution, which is investigating the delay in settlement of sales proceeds by Timon and WeMakePrice, has secured two years' worth of call records from the head of the finance division, who oversaw the flow of funds between affiliates. While attention is being paid to whether this will be the smoking gun that will reveal the fraud and breach of trust of management, including Q10 Group CEO Koo Young-bae, the legal community points out that internal documents or statements must be released to make a clear judgment. According to the legal community on the 5th, the Seoul Central District Prosecutors' Office Timon and WeMakePrice's dedicated investigation team (Chief Prosecutor Lee Jun-Dong) sent prosecutors and investigators to three locations, including the Q10 Technology, Timon, and WeMakePrice offices in Gangnam-gu, Seoul, to conduct the third search and seizure starting this morning. proceeded. Q10 offices were searched and seized on the 1st and 2nd, but it was reported that the search was conducted to secure additional accounting data related to the unsettled situation. The prosecution is said to have secured the mobile phone of Lee Si-jun, head of Q10 Group's financial headquarters, through three seizures and searches. Director Lee is known as CEO Koo’s closest associate. The prosecution plans to summon CEO Koo as early as this week after investigating how the 'TimePrice unsettled situation' occurred, changes in financial situation, and when the group's management became aware of it, based on the contents of Lee's phone call with CEO Koo and other executives. The legal community believes that the key to the prosecution's investigation will be identifying when the parent company, Q10 Group, and executives of Timon and WeMakePrice became aware of the serious financial crisis. In order to be guilty of fraud, it must be proven that the transaction was made by intentionally deceiving the other party while knowing that the transaction did not have the intention or ability to fulfill the obligations agreed upon at the time of the transaction. On the other hand, CEO Koo and others are expressing that this incident was an unavoidable event that occurred while making aggressive investments to secure market dominance due to the nature of the platform business. The intention is that although they were aware of the accumulated financial crisis, there was no intention to intentionally deceive them. The prosecution plans to secure a variety of human and material evidence to overcome this logic. Attorney Bang In-tae of Daeryun Law Firm, who represents the victims, said, "Timon and WeMakePrice were not substantial companies due to capital erosion. It is reasonable to assume that they were aware of (the financial crisis) in advance," but added, "In order to prove with objective evidence that they were aware of it at some point, internal reporting documents or insider statements will need to come out."

Services are being discontinued or payment settlements are being delayed, but it is still unclear whether the parent company, Q10, will be revived. Reporter Rodong-gyu reported this. The book sales site operated by Interpark Commerce, an affiliate of Q10, has stopped. This is because Kyobo Bookstore, the exclusive store that has not received payment for sales, has stopped trading. [Kyobo Bookstore official: We were keeping an eye on it due to the Timon and WeMakePrice incidents, but we temporarily suspended the service yesterday due to the failure to settle the book. [That is a natural course of action now that the situation is in full swing.] In Interpark shopping, major stores such as Lotte Department Store and Amore Pacific are leaving one after another. Due to the Timeef incident, some PG companies and simple payment companies have tied up Interpark's sales payments, and the crisis is spreading to places that were operating normally. Likewise, at another affiliate, AK Mall, the situation is prolonging and it is becoming difficult for sellers to hold on. For example, electronics stores. In the case of stores, as offline customers have almost disappeared, they have been actively doing business with these sites that advertise the lowest price discounts, but they have been hit hard. [Yongsan Electronics Store Merchant: (Settlement of TimePrice payment) If you get it, it will be 70 days. May is now gone, but June and July are still left. It will be enormous.] As the court began to consider whether to initiate corporate rehabilitation, angry sellers sued Q10 executives to the prosecution, saying they were not qualified to talk about corporate rehabilitation that requires concessions to victims. [Attorney Won Hyeong-il/Representing victims of Timeef: In order to receive a judgment from the investigative authorities to see whether Q10 Group executives are truly qualified to use the corporate rehabilitation system and whether they have any personal responsibility... .] Timon and WeMakePrice said they would normalize business under court supervision, but there is no specific plan on how they will repay. [Youngbae Koo/CEO of Q10: (Where are the sales proceeds now?) As far as I know, there is currently no capital left in the company.] In the end, it is difficult to trust self-rescue efforts, and it is pointed out that the investigation must be speeded up to reduce damage as much as possible by tracing the missing sales funds.

As the controversy surrounding so-called 'cyber wreckers' who create provocative content containing false information and profit from it as an excuse continues, voices calling for stronger legal punishment against them are growing. On the 29th, Prosecutor General Lee Won-seok ordered Suwon District Prosecutor General Kim Yoo-cheol to receive a report on the status and plans of the ‘Cyber ​​Rekka’ investigation and to strictly respond to the distribution of malicious content, threats, and extortion committed by Cyber ​​Rekka, which inflicts extreme defamation and insults on both celebrities and the general public by inciting hatred for profit-making and commercial purposes, and deprive them of the proceeds of crime.” In the case of criminal punishment in the cyber racka crime, if you extort money by threatening the other person, you can be charged with blackmail, and if you publicly revealed another person's private life for the purpose of slander, you can be charged with defamation under the Information and Communications Network Act. Victims may also file separate civil litigation procedures. Compensation is received by claiming compensation for physical and mental damage caused by malicious content. In fact, a court recently issued a ruling holding YouTubers who filmed videos without their consent liable for damages. On the 3rd, the Daejeon District Court's Civil Division 13 (Chief Judge Kang Gil-yeon) ruled in favor of the plaintiff in a lawsuit seeking compensation filed by a man in his 70s against two YouTubers, saying, "The defendants must jointly pay 13 million won to the plaintiff." In 2022, the YouTubers sneaked into the dog shop run by Mr. A, pretending to be customers, and conducted a live broadcast. During the live broadcast, Mr. A's face, home address, vehicle license plate, and the interior and exterior views of the silk shop were exposed, and the scene of them swearing at Mr. A was also broadcast as is. They later edited and processed the video and reposted it, and even after the silk shed was demolished, they visited Mr. A's residence again and continued filming without permission, raising donations from viewers. Mr. A applied for a temporary injunction seeking the deletion of the video and a ban on posting it, and received a decision from the court, but they did not delete the video even after several months. The court said, “The defendants posted a video containing content insulting and criticizing the plaintiff, claiming that the plaintiff was slaughtering dogs illegally, but there appears to be no evidence to prove that the plaintiff actually slaughtered dogs illegally.” He also pointed out, “Even if the plaintiff committed an illegal act, beyond reporting it to the competent government office, posting a video on their personal YouTube channel and making insulting and threatening remarks cannot be considered justified in terms of the means and methods.” He added, “We took into account the fact that YouTube, due to the nature of the Internet medium, has a large impact, so the damage is serious, and the posting period of the video can be as long as about 1 year and 7 months.” Daeryun Law Firm (Lihan), which served as legal representation for the plaintiff, explained, “The victim is experiencing considerable mental pain due to the defendants’ acts of violating portrait rights, insults, and defamation,” and added, “It appears that the court also reflected this.” In addition, he said, “Recently, as the number of YouTubers has rapidly increased, various damages are occurring due to filming and broadcasting without consent. In the case of YouTube, once a video is posted, it can be reproduced continuously, so the ripple effect is bound to be large, so there is an urgent need to improve awareness.” [View full article] Sports Seoul - YouTuber held responsible for ‘unauthorized filming’ of ordinary people… Court: “Compensation of 13 million won is required” (Shortcut) 2026-05-14T06:53:01.755Z https://www.daeryunlaw.com/en/broadcast/3385 During his tenure as a prosecutor, he was appointed as the head of the drug response group in the violent department, which dealt with drug and gangster crimes...

The possibility of additional damage increases for either party. Government support measures become virtually useless. Timon and WeMakePrice are responsible for delays in large-scale seller payment settlement and buyer refunds. 29It is expected that it will become more difficult for victims to receive relief as they apply for rehabilitation to the Japanese court.. corporate rehabilitation(court receivership)If you apply, the court will issue a comprehensive injunction. In this case, financial claims will be blocked until the start of court receivership is decided., This is because all receivables, including commercial receivables, are frozen and sellers cannot receive their unsettled payments back.. For this reason, it may not be easy to obtain consent for court management from creditors, including the seller.. If court receivership fails due to opposition from creditors, it is highly likely that Timon and WeMakePrice will go bankrupt unless Koo Young-bae, CEO of Q10, the parent company of Timon and WeMakePrice, steals his personal assets.. Either way, it will be difficult for victims to receive payment or refunds..According to the industry on this day, as Timon and WeMakePrice applied for court receivership, the damage to sellers and buyers was bound to snowball.. On this day, immediately after applying for corporate rehabilitation, Timon and WeMakePrice released a statement. “In order to prevent the current vicious cycle and minimize damage to sales members and consumers, we have applied for rehabilitation.”as “New autonomous restructuring support(ARS) Instead of applying for the program and immediately starting mandatory rehabilitation procedures, we plan to review whether it is possible to raise funds through the creation of a restructuring fund.”said. ARS The program is a system in which the court suspends the initiation of mandatory rehabilitation procedures and supports companies and creditors to autonomously negotiate restructuring first..However, contrary to the explanations of Timon and WeMakePrice, the damage to sellers and consumers is likely to increase further.. In order for court receivership to be successful, creditors 3of 2, secured creditor 4of 3 The above consent is required, but it is unlikely that creditors will agree.. Even Timon and WeMakePrice cannot properly determine the extent of the seller's damage, so it may take a considerable amount of time to determine the number of creditors and the size of the bonds.. A lawyer specializing in court management said “Among the sellers who are on the verge of bankruptcy due to Timon and WeMakePrice, who would agree to court receivership?”pointed out.In fact, the amount of damage to the seller estimated by the government was originally 1000As of today, at the level of billions of won 2134increased to billions of won. Settlement deadline remaining 67Including monthly transactions 89The size of monthly unsettled payments is expected to increase further.. Previously, at Timon's office, the total amount of damage was 1A memo from an employee was discovered predicting that it would be worth more than trillion won..There is also an analysis that if the court receivership fails and CEO Koo does not contribute his personal funds, bankruptcy is the only option for Timon and WeMakePrice.. If Timon and WeMakePrice file for bankruptcy, compensation to victims will become more difficult.. This is because it is unlikely that there will be any assets remaining in Timon and WeMakePrice, which are in a state of complete capital erosion.. If this happens, small and medium-sized sellers will hardly be able to get their settlement money back, raising concerns that serial bankruptcies will become a reality.. It is highly likely that the seller is a senior creditor.. In the case of the buyer, it appears that other relief procedures, such as a lawsuit, will have to be taken..Even if court receivership is accepted, damage is inevitable.. When court receivership commences, payments are frozen for a period of time.. This means that many of the sellers who are at risk of bankruptcy due to non-settlement of payments are being driven further to the brink.. Bang In-tae, an attorney at Daeryun Law Firm who is reviewing a class action lawsuit for victims of the Timon and WeMakePrice incidents, said: “Going through corporate rehabilitation procedures means applying for rehabilitation and converting bonds into stocks for those who previously lent a lot of money., In this way, debt is forgiven by giving up some of the bonds.”He said “Currently, the damage compensation claims that the victims of the Timon and WeMakePrice incidents were trying to process are claims that were already incurred before the rehabilitation application, so they will not be affected by the rehabilitation application, but it is highly likely that it will take a long time to be repaid.. It seems that litigation response strategies will also change a lot.”mentioned.The government released this day following the application for court receivership by Timon and WeMakePrice. 5600Financial support measures worth billions of won have become virtually useless.. An industry insider said “There has already been strong criticism that the government's measures are peeing on frozen feet.”as “What’s the point of getting a loan at a low interest rate or extending a loan if you can’t get the payment settled?”He raised his voice..Sellers who had said that the only solution would be for Timon and WeMakePrice to come forward and settle the sales price were shocked.. There was criticism that Timon and WeMakePrice had no intention of paying money from the beginning..

This is due to concerns that personal information may be leaked or sold illegally if the security management of a company on the verge of bankruptcy is lax. According to Asia Today's coverage on the 29th, since the so-called 'TimePrice Incident', posts have been appearing one after another on social media providing information on how to certify withdrawal from TimPorn and WeMakePrice or completely disconnect from other SNS such as Naver and Kakao. As it became known that some personal information of subscribers may be kept even if they leave the website due to site regulations, some are advising subscribers to change all personal information to false before withdrawing. Recently, Chinese e-commerce platform AliExpress provided personal information of Korean users to Chinese sellers, coupled with a large-scale information leak in the e-commerce industry, which increased consumers' anxiety. As the controversy grew, the Personal Information Committee confirmed the status of personal information processing through the personal information protection officer (CPO) of Q10 Technology Co., Ltd., which was entrusted with the personal information management of Timon and WeMakePrice, on the 26th and announced, "To date, no problems with personal information processing have been found." However, the legal community agrees that strict monitoring by the government and consumers is necessary as personal information leaks and illegal sales frequently occur in actually bankrupt companies. Law Firm Bang In-tae, senior lawyer at Daeryun's Corporate Advisory Center, said, "In principle, personal information held by a company is not transferred to creditors when it goes bankrupt," but added, "There are actually cases where information is leaked due to poor management of a company in danger of bankruptcy, and in the process, third parties illegally purchase so-called 'profitable' personal information." Attorney Bang said, "However, such cases should be severely punished according to the Personal Information Protection Act, and all those who engage in such acts should be severely criminalized." Kim Myung-joo, a professor at the Department of Information Security at Seoul Women's University, also emphasized, "In the event of a company's bankruptcy, all assets, including personal information, are monitored by debtors, and there are many cases in which they hand them over when they say, 'I will give you more money if you hand over the information data in the system as well.'" He added, "Because the personal information protection obligation is not specifically defined for companies that are in the process of going out of business or have already been dissolved under the Personal Information Protection Act, it is urgent to prepare legal provisions to regulate this." Professor Kim emphasized, “Currently, the Personal Information Protection Committee needs to monitor the bankruptcy process in more detail,” and added, “Consumers should also continue to be alert.” [View full article] Asia Today - Selling personal information... ‘Timeef’ continues to withdraw (Shortcut) 2026-05-09T00:03:05.931Z https://www.daeryunlaw.com/en/broadcast/3378 Victims of small amounts may proceed with class action lawsuits through the court. Sellers of large-value services or goods may proceed with individual lawsuits. On the 29th, Bang In-tae, senior attorney at the Daeryun Corporate Legal Group at Law Firm Co., Ltd., explained the delay in settlement and refund of Timon and WeMakePrice (damage scale: KRW 170 billion to KRW 1 trillion), payment structure, charges for each case of damage, and the differences between the group dispute mediation procedure and class action lawsuits. (Timon, WeMakePrice payments) Payment structure) Timon and WeMakePrice are mail order brokers and electronic payment agencies (PGs). When consumers pay for a product, the payment is sent to the primary PG company and then to the secondary PG company, with the payment ultimately being paid to the seller. When a customer purchases goods or services from a mail order seller and pays with a credit card, the payment is transferred in the following order: [Customer → Card company → Electronic payment service provider (PG company) → Mail order seller]. Representative primary PG companies include Nice Information and Communication, KG Inicis, etc. However, in the case of Timon and WeMakePrice, money is moved in the order of [customer → card company → electronic payment agency (primary PG company) → Timon, WeMakePrice (electronic payment agency = secondary PG company) → mail order distributor] in the fund transfer stage. The reason why Timon and WeMakePrice intervened as secondary PG companies is This is because it is not easy for small businesses located on internet shopping mall platforms such as Timon to sign franchise contracts directly with primary PG companies. A structure has been established where Timon and WeMakePrice directly sign franchise contracts with primary PG companies, receive payment, and settle accounts (settlements) with small businesses. In other words, the payment agency itself is entrusted to the primary PG company, and Timon and WeMakePrice are the secondary PG companies, and the internet shopping mall platform handles the settlement of fees and payments on behalf of the store. (Crimes for each damage case) Consumers who have not received goods and services after paying the purchase price = If the payment amount is completely transferred from the primary PG to Timon and WeMakePrice, they can file a claim for return of unfair profits against Timon and WeMakePrice. It appears that a claim for damages for default is possible. A seller who supplied goods and services to a buyer but did not receive payment (settlement) for the same = After receiving the consumer's subscription information from Timon and WeMakePrice, it appears that it will be possible to claim settlement money and default damages from Timon and WeMakePrice by proving that goods and services were normally supplied to the consumer in accordance with the Act on Consumer Protection in Electronic Commerce, etc. Since the payment received by Timon and WeMakePrice from the primary PG is interpreted to be stored for the seller, if it was used for purposes other than settlement, it would be considered a crime of embezzlement. However, if a consumer subscription is delivered to the seller through an online platform without any intention to pay, knowing that payment to the seller will not be possible due to financial circumstances, and the seller supplies goods and services to the consumer, there is a possibility that a crime of fraud may be established (collective dispute resolution procedures and Differences between class lawsuits) Class dispute mediation procedures are relief procedures for collective damages carried out by the [Korea Consumer Protection Agency Consumer Dispute Mediation Committee] or the [Personal Information Protection Commission Personal Information Dispute Mediation Committee]. It is different from lawsuits conducted in court, and the mediation plan must be accepted by both parties to have the same effect as a court ruling. A common class action lawsuit is, in legal terms, a multi-party lawsuit, and in this case, it will be a lawsuit filed by multiple plaintiffs against Timon or WeMakePrice. Attorney Bang In-tae said, “The scale of the damage is large, the data is extensive, and the resulting compensation is expected to be considerable, so it seems necessary to proceed with a class action procedure through the court rather than an arbitrary group dispute mediation procedure.” He added, “For small victims, it is better to proceed with a class action lawsuit through the court. “For service or goods sellers, it is judged to be advantageous in terms of convenience of proof and litigation economics to proceed with individual lawsuits,” he explained.

Prosecutor’s ‘Legal Review’ (Shortcut) 2026-05-14T03:30:02.687Z https://www.daeryunlaw.com/en/broadcast/3375 Much of the expenditures of stores, including advertising costs, are passed on to consumers... As the price burden increases, regulation of accommodation reservation platforms needs to be established. “The reason I use the accommodation reservation platform is because of the low price, but on-site payment is cheaper, so I feel like I’m being ‘hogang’. If I call and complain, it’s difficult to get a detailed explanation due to internal regulations, and the connection itself takes too long.” Mr. A, an office worker in his 30s who planned a domestic trip with his family for the summer vacation season, heard from a hotel employee on the day of check-in that he could stay for about 80,000 won cheaper than the price through the accommodation app. Mr. A expressed his dissatisfaction, saying, "When I inquired about the accommodation app, it confidently stated, 'This is something you already agreed to when making the payment, so refunds are difficult and price differences may occur.' When I inquired about the commission policy, etc., they said, 'They can't explain it to me.'" In the end, Mr. A paid about 80,000 won more per night and stayed for 3 days and 2 nights. As the summer peak season approaches, voices of travelers complaining of such complaints are rising one after another. Accordingly, experts pointed out that regulations on accommodation platforms are necessary in a situation where the burden on accommodation companies is increasing, such as expensive advertising costs and high entry fees. According to Asia Today coverage on the 28th, the average entry brokerage fee for accommodation reservation platforms is about 11%. It was found that reservation (brokerage) fees ranged from as little as 8% to as much as 17% depending on the brokerage and consignment transaction sales fees for each store. Accommodation companies not only pay high brokerage fees but also spend a lot of money on advertising. In fact, according to the Korea Federation of Small and Medium Businesses, the average monthly advertising cost that accommodation app stores spend on platforms is 1,079,000 won, with exposure advertising cost of 822,000 won and coupon advertising cost of 257,000 won, respectively. As these platform fees are eventually passed on to consumers, the price gap is increasing. The legal community explains that it is difficult to hold online platforms legally responsible for double pricing. Most online platform cases involve small amounts of less than 30 million won, so even if a lawsuit proceeds, the platform companies are reaching for a 'quiet settlement' rather than a fundamental solution such as revising the company policy or changing the terms and conditions. Kim Jin-woo, an attorney at Daeryun Law Firm, said, "If the platform company says it will not collect cancellation fees and then receives them, it will be considered an act of deceiving consumers and could be criminally punished for fraud, but otherwise, actual punishment is difficult. Victims also want more financial compensation. “There are cases where platform companies quietly reach an agreement with consumers and pay money. If the decision goes to the appeals court and is confirmed by the Supreme Court, the platform companies will try to move on quietly because it will establish a precedent,” he pointed out. However, there are also predictions that companies will be wary as there have been cases in which consumers who have recently been harmed can impose strong legal sanctions on online platforms through class action lawsuits rather than individual cases. Attorney Kim said, "In the case of class action lawsuits, it can be a way to protest more strongly against companies. As such movements have been taking place in the legal field recently, companies will also be alert and revise their terms and conditions." Lee Eun-hee, a professor of consumer studies at Inha University, also said, "Accommodation apps are acting as dictators and taking advantage of double payments to control consumers. As a measure to minimize damage to consumers, one way is to collect signatures through online communities and inform the group about the damage." “It could be possible,” he said.

According to the distribution industry, many of the 60,000 stores currently operating on Q10 Group affiliated e-commerce platforms such as Timon and WeMakePrice have been confirmed to be small business owners. In most cases, the financial situation is so poor that if settlement cannot be made, the situation is so serious that business must be suspended. As the timing of settlement of sales proceeds from Timon and WeMakePrice becomes unclear, there are concerns that the financial difficulties of small and medium-sized sellers will continue to worsen. Sellers facing the risk of company bankruptcy are reportedly considering corporate rehabilitation. To this end, lawyers from large corporations, as well as experts in special fields such as corporate rehabilitation and bankruptcy, joined the task force. In particular, in addition to lawyers, experts such as accountants, tax accountants, and labor accountants joined in to add expertise. The central axis of the TF was the head of the corporate legal group, lawyer Won-il Won (28th class of the Judicial Research and Training Institute). Attorney Won, who served as managing director and head of the legal office at POSCO Holdings (formerly POSCO) and managing director of the legal office at POSCO Future M (formerly POSCO Chemical), handled numerous corporate lawsuits while working at the legal office and is an expert specializing in legal advice related to corporate law. In addition, ▲Jongsoo Shin (31st class), a former partner attorney at Kim & Chang who specialized in the field of corporate law and taxation ▲Over 15 years of experience Attorney Kim Gwang-deok (32nd class), who is well-versed in special corporate law, including labor and fair trade, while working at a mid-sized and large law firm. ▲ Attorney Kim Won-sang (43rd class), head of the Corporate Rehabilitation and Bankruptcy Center. ▲ Attorney Na Chang-soo (31st class), who worked as a chief prosecutor at the Seoul Central District Prosecutors' Office and the Seoul Western District Prosecutors' Office and handled numerous corporate crimes. ▲ Attorney Bang In-tae (41st class), a labor lawyer registered with the Korean Bar Association. ▲Lawyer Ji Min-hee, who served as an in-house lawyer at LG Innotek and has extensive expertise in international transactions, ▲Attorney Jeong Sang-hyeok, who has extensive experience in human resources and labor, will provide the necessary assistance to corporations suffering from bankruptcy due to the Timon and WeMakePrice incidents. The TF includes ▲Accountant Park Seong-ah, who has experience as a member of the rehabilitation investigation committee for numerous listed and unlisted corporations, and ▲Labor attorney Won Yong-il, who was in charge of corporate audit work and collective bargaining. ▲Labor attorney Nam Seo-hye, who has provided labor legal advice for many companies in IT, service, manufacturing, and distribution, and ▲Tax accountant Lim Jeong-oh, who has provided tax adjustment and advice for various industries, will be brought in. The plan is to take prompt follow-up measures with sellers and consumers who have suffered damage due to the Timon/WeMakePrice non-settlement situation with the input of experts in special fields. Won Won-il, head of the corporate legal group who leads the task force, said, “The current Timon/WeMakePrice situation is worsening, and the damage caused is so severe that the amount cannot be estimated. With the formation of this task force, we will spare no effort in helping victims file a class action lawsuit.” [View full article] Roishu - Daeryun Law Firm (Limited) forms a task force to respond to the Timon and WeMakePrice incidents...

Accountants, tax accountants, and labor attorneys have joined the task force. As damage to consumers and sellers is increasing as the unsettled sales of Timon and WeMakePrice are spreading, Daeryun Law Firm (Lihan) announced on the 25th that it will gather related victims and file a class action lawsuit. Timon and WeMakePrice, affiliates of Singaporean e-commerce company Q10, were embroiled in controversy for failing to settle the price of products sold last May. It is also unclear whether the sales proceeds from June to July will be settled, so the damage to sellers is growing like a snowball. In fact, many concerned posts have been posted in small business communities, such as ‘All orders received have been cancelled’ and ‘I am anxious because the unsettled amount alone is tens of millions of won.’ Some sellers are also preparing for a prolonged situation by recruiting victims to participate in class action lawsuits. Consumer losses are also increasing as some sellers facing financial difficulties cancel product sales. In particular, the damage to consumers who have booked travel products is severe, and travel agencies that have not received payment are promoting a policy of canceling existing payments and repaying their own, leading to a series of cases where consumers are having to cancel their trips. Consumers can go through group dispute mediation procedures when 50 or more people suffer similar damage. However, there is a very high possibility that mediation will not be established, and even if a mediation plan is developed, it will only be at the level of a ‘recommendation’, so if the company does not respond, separate legal procedures, such as a lawsuit for damages, must be pursued. According to Daeryun Law Firm (Lihan), there are a series of inquiries about lawsuits from victims whose damages amount to hundreds of millions of won. Accordingly, Daeryun Law Firm (Lihan) is aware that inquiries surrounding the Timon and WeMakePrice incidents have continued regardless of whether consumers or sellers, and has formed a class action task force and begun establishing a rapid response strategy. In particular, considering corporate bankruptcy, experts such as accountants, tax accountants, and labor accountants also joined the task force. Daeryun Law Firm (Limited) Corporate Legal Group Head Won-il Won said, “You can file a claim for damages for default and a lawsuit for return of unjust enrichment,” and added, “As the scale and severity of the damage is serious, we will help consumers receive fair compensation through a class action lawsuit.” He also added, “If the delayed payment situation is not resolved quickly, we are concerned that small and medium-sized sellers will go bankrupt. To prepare for the worst-case scenario, we plan to prepare a lawsuit by cooperating with experts in various fields such as accountants, tax accountants, and labor attorneys.” Applications for class action lawsuits can be made on the consultation reservation page of Daeryun Law Firm (Limited) website. Meanwhile, Daeryun Law Firm (Lihan) is raising issues with the unfair refund policy of lodging platforms and is currently pursuing a class action lawsuit against Yanolja, a famous domestic lodging platform. Daeryun Law Firm (Yuhan) said, “As the lawsuits related to Timon, WeMakePrice, and Yanolja are all issues with a large social impact, we plan to form a task force with professional lawyers with extensive relevant experience to assist the victims.” [View full article] Segye Ilbo - Law Firm (Lihan) Daeryun pursues class action lawsuit for victims of Timon and WeMakePrice (Shortcut) Money S - "Concerns about possible bankruptcy"...

A ruling was made to acquit a man who was indicted for capturing and keeping the nude and underwear images of the other person several times during a video call with his lover. On the 12th, Chief Judge Jeong Eun-young of the Cheonan Branch of the Daejeon District Court sentenced Mr. A, a man in his 50s, not guilty on charges of violating the Special Act on the Punishment of Sexual Violence Crimes (possession of filmed material using cameras, etc.). During a video call with Mr. B, with whom he had been dating from 2019 to 2021, Mr. A captured the screen of his cell phone showing the other person's body about four times. Since the other person in the video was wearing only underwear or was naked, Mr. A was charged with violating the Sexual Violence Punishment Act. According to the police investigation record, it was confirmed that Mr. B had an affair with Mr. A and then broke up. Afterwards, when Mr. A's wife discovered the screenshot and filed a civil suit against Mr. B, Mr. B reported that the video call was against his will. In this criminal trial, the main factor was that it was filmed by the victim, B, and that it was not filmed in a situation against the victim's will. Chief Judge Eun-young Jeong said, “The video information in the defendant's possession is a film of the victim's own body through a video call, and it was filmed against the victim's will. “No,” he said, and explained the reason for the acquittal, saying, “The defendant did not delete the captured photos but merely kept them and did not distribute or otherwise possess them. Punishment provisions cannot be applied retroactively.” Law Firm (Yuhan) Daeryun, who represented Mr. He explained, “It has a big impact on the judgment,” and “This case led to a not guilty verdict by proving the circumstances that the defendant’s actions were not carried out against the victim’s will and that the distribution and other actions were not carried out.” He continued, “Like the case above, things done in an intimate relationship between lovers sometimes lead to criminal charges after they break up,” adding, “In these cases, you may end up being investigated by an investigative agency overnight, even if you forget about it.” [View full article] - Court, man who captured and stored naked body and underwear while on video call with lover... What is the outcome of the trial? (Shortcut) 2026-05-13T14:13:21.184Z https://www.daeryunlaw.com/en/broadcast/3358 Damage amount estimated by the Financial Supervisory Service is "170 billion won" vs. "1 trillion won" claimed by sellers. Concerns about prolonged settlement delay due to Q10 Group's liquidity 'bottom' As the settlement delay situation at Timon and WeMakePrice (TimePrice) has not been resolved, it is being claimed that one after another, stores that have not received settlement are on the verge of bankruptcy. The Financial Supervisory Service put the unsettled amount at 170 billion won, but sellers say it is 1 trillion won. The industry is paying close attention to whether Q10, whose liquidity has fallen to the bottom, will be able to overcome the impasse. On the 25th, the Financial Supervisory Service estimated the unsettled amount of Timon and WeMakePrice at 170 billion won in a briefing. Sellers at Timef stores claim that the monthly settlement amount of both companies is around 500 billion won, which is much larger than what the Financial Supervisory Service announced. They said, “Timef has a system of settling after two months, and the settlement amount reaches 1 trillion in two months.” At the same time, he expressed doubts about Q10's ability to pay due to its lack of liquidity. Last year, WeMakePrice sales amounted to KRW 126.8 billion, showing a downward trend for three consecutive years. Timon did not submit its 2023 performance by the deadline. In 2022, sales will reach 120.497 billion won and operating loss will reach 152.7 billion won. The industry estimates that Timef's average monthly transaction size is around 1 trillion won. It is known that suspicions about the delay in TimePf settlement have been raised among sellers two months ago. Timon is a system where settlement is made on the +40th day of the last day of each month, and WeMakePrice is a system where settlement is made on the +7th day of the following month from the monthly sales deadline. Normally, this means that cash will arrive in your account after two months for Timon and three months for WeMakePrice. Delays in settlement have been made public for sales made before May. Now that the settlement for June and July is uncertain, if sellers' claims are followed, the damage amount could increase further. 60,000 sellers in store... The damage ranges from tens of millions of won to billions of won. If the bankruptcies of stores continue, the damage to the financial sector, including banks, becomes severe due to a chain reaction. According to the industry, the number of sellers in Timef stores is known to be as high as 60,000. Many of these are small or medium-sized businesses or small business owners. If settlement is not made on time on the platform, company operations will be disrupted. Sellers who visited Timep's headquarters in Gangnam-gu on this day responded, "Seller damages range from tens of millions of won to billions of won. We are at a loss as to how to pay our employees' salaries right now," and "If Timon and WeMakePrice do not settle sales payments, our company may go bankrupt." Mr. A, who identified himself as a TimePrice seller in a large community, said, "Most sellers were aware of the delay in settlement, but were concerned that the number of consumers would decrease due to the reputation of the platform worsening. He complained, “We have been putting off making it public.” The industry reacted by saying that it was unreasonable to proceed with unreasonable M&As one after another in a situation where hundreds of billions of won in losses were continuing, and that “eventually, something was going to explode.” In the meantime, Q10 did not apply escrow (secure purchase transaction system) and directly managed the amount paid by consumers. Some speculate that Q10 Group may have used the settlement amount to be paid to sellers in order to promote M&A. Bang In-tae, senior attorney at Daeryun Law Firm's Corporate Advisory Center, said, "If a consumer paid for a purchase but did not receive the product, and the platform company used this amount for business expenses other than payment to the seller, it would be embezzlement. In this case, it would be a criminal case, and the CEOs of WeMakePrice and Timon could be punished."

It is necessary to secure rights and interests when involved in a dispute due to legal disputes over abuse of authority. As the real estate recession in the Daejeon area continues, a series of disputes related to maintenance projects such as reconstruction and redevelopment are heating up, and caution is required. As it is a long-term project, experts advise that if you are involved in a dispute, you should respond quickly to secure rights and interests. According to the real estate maintenance industry, the urban maintenance project has been put on hold due to the prolonged recession in the real estate market in Daejeon and disputes within the redevelopment association. Redevelopment is due to poor maintenance infrastructure and poor maintenance infrastructure. This is a project implemented to improve the residential environment in areas with a high concentration of old and defective buildings. It usually takes more than 10 years from completion to actual occupancy after going through procedures such as association establishment approval, project implementation approval, and management disposal plan approval. There is also the problem that the period may be longer due to legal disputes over the operating costs of the redevelopment association. With reconstruction and redevelopment projects already in full swing throughout the Daejeon region, ranging from disputes over the selection of the initial construction company and construction costs to late payment interest and redevelopment. Various risks, such as cash liquidation issues, are emerging. Daeryun Law Firm (Liuhan) explained, "Conflicts between unions and union members can escalate into lawsuits, which can shake the foundation of the business. In real estate disputes surrounding reconstruction and redevelopment, such as misappropriation of contributions and embezzlement and breach of trust by union presidents, there is a need to objectively determine whether liability exists, etc." He added, “It takes a long time to proceed with a lawsuit, and the amount can range from tens of millions to hundreds of millions of won, so it is necessary to carefully consider the relevant issues and resolve them with an expert.” [View full article] - A series of disputes related to apartment redevelopment in the Daejeon area...

The woman claims that she was treated unfairly by her mother-in-law, and an expert advised, “It seems possible to file for divorce and alimony.” According to a JTBC report on the 22nd, the story of a woman, Mr. A, who said she felt unfair due to this conflict between her mother-in-law and her husband, was reported. Ms. A, in her 30s, was preparing to marry her husband and decided not to receive help from adults in both families. They agreed to have a ‘simplified wedding’ without any wedding favors or gifts. However, when her mother-in-law, B, found out about this, she looked down on her. It seems like he was disappointed that he couldn't even receive the same praise that everyone else received. Mr. B called Mr. A that way and scolded him, saying, “It’s too much to do.” He then asked, “Are your daughter and son the same?” and “Don’t tell your son, but send him 10 million won for the wedding gift.” Because she was planning to get married, Ms. A did not want to cause conflict, so she sent the wedding gift price to her mother-in-law late. She told this to her husband and received 10 million won for the wedding gift to give to her mother. Ms. A, who later married, became pregnant, but friction with her mother-in-law continued even after pregnancy. After hearing the news, the mother-in-law advised, “Even if you are pregnant, you must feed your husband for all three meals a day,” and “A wife should not ask to buy this or that at night.” Additionally, the medical staff recommended an emergency cesarean section to Ms. A, who was hospitalized ahead of her due date, but her mother-in-law strongly discouraged the cesarean section on the grounds that “the baby will be smarter and healthier if you give birth naturally.” He then suggested that I go to another hospital that offers natural childbirth. In the end, Ms. A's husband, who was angry, kicked her mother-in-law out of the obstetrics and gynecology clinic and gave birth to the child by cesarean section. Before giving birth, Ms. A named her child after her husband and herself, one by one. Her mother-in-law suggested the name, saying she had received the name from a famous monk, and she went on a hunger strike and ended up using that name. This wasn't the only thing. The mother-in-law threw the side dish that Mr. A's mother had made and sent from the countryside into the trash. However, the hair was all in the container, and the mother-in-law asked, “How can I feed this to my son and grandson?” But Mr. A was disappointed. Mr. A expressed his disappointment to his mother-in-law. The mother-in-law slapped her face, saying, “Why are you talking back so arrogantly? Did you learn that from your parents?” Ms. A turned her face away to avoid her touch, but her mother-in-law said, “She is that mother and that daughter,” and cursed her parents while pushing her head with her finger. He claimed that Mr. A, who was angry, shook off his mother-in-law's hand, but in the process accidentally grazed her mother-in-law's cheek. It is Mr. A's fault for touching his mother-in-law's cheek, whether it was a brush or something. At this, Mr. B got very angry and slapped Mr. A. They also hit other parts of the body and took out discarded food and threw it around the house. When her son returned home, the mother-in-law cried bitterly and said, “My daughter-in-law hit me like this.” When Ms. A explained, “That wasn’t it,” her husband raised his voice and said, “Get down on your knees and pray to my mother.” Eventually, Mr. A left home with his son. Regarding this story, lawyer Kim Dong-jin of Daeryun Law Firm told the Segye Ilbo on the 24th, “According to Article 840 (3) of the Civil Act, it is grounds for divorce when a person is treated extremely unfairly by a spouse’s immediate ascendant family.” At the same time, he explained, “You can file for divorce due to the other party’s fault,” and “Assault and verbal abuse are considered unfair grounds, and it appears that a claim for alimony is possible.” He advised, "However, there is a problem with proof. If there was any problem between the mother-in-law and daughter-in-law, it is important to prove it."

In the event of a divorce, one parent becomes the custodian and takes care of the child, and the parent who does not have custody fulfills the duty of raising the child by paying child support. Even if child support is not properly received, the child can be reimbursed for the expenses incurred while raising the child. If there was no originally confirmed child support or a divorce was made without agreement on child support before the enforcement of the child support provision, the costs can be paid through a lawsuit for past child support even after the child becomes an adult. However, the Supreme Court ruled that the statute of limitations on the right to past child support does not run while the child is a minor and the child support obligation continues, but runs from when the child becomes an adult and the child support obligation ends, so past child support can only be claimed for 10 years after the child becomes an adult. On the 18th, the Supreme Court unanimously ruled that the right to claim posthumous child support for a minor child is only valid for 10 years from the time the child becomes an adult. In the case of child support, the Supreme Court precedent, which ruled that the statute of limitations does not run until a specific right to claim arises through agreement between the parties or a family court decision, has changed after 13 years. According to the current law, child support must be paid until the minor child reaches the age of 19, and if child support has not been received, past child support can be claimed even after the child becomes an adult. However, if past child support can be claimed indefinitely, there is a problem that those receiving the claim will have to spend their entire lives in a state of instability. In this regard, the Supreme Court ruled that it was necessary to apply a 10-year statute of limitations from the time the minor child reached the age of majority because it did not comply with the purpose of the statute of limitations system. The statute of limitations is a system that recognizes the extinguishment of rights due to non-exercise of rights for a certain period of time. In the case of general civil claims, the statute of limitations is 10 years, and if the right is not exercised within the period, the legal effect disappears. With this ruling, the statute of limitations for the right to past child support, like general claims, begins after the child becomes an adult. The Supreme Court's unanimous decision stated, "The statute of limitations for the right to past child support does not run while the child is a minor and the child support obligation continues, but runs from when the child becomes an adult and the child support obligation ends." While the child is a minor, child support may fluctuate, so it cannot be considered a complete property right, but once the child becomes an adult, the amount becomes fixed. Therefore, the purpose is that the calculation of the statute of limitations begins like a general claim. Accordingly, if you have not received child support, you will need to quickly prepare a lawsuit to claim past child support before the right to claim expires. This is because there is no legal way to respond after the rights are extinguished. At this time, it must be understood that past child support may be recognized differently from the amount claimed. When calculating child support in the past, in addition to the objective costs of raising children, various factors such as the parties' financial situation and fairness of burden are taken into consideration. If you want to receive maximum recognition for the amount claimed, you need to make sufficient preparations according to the advice of a legal expert. It is realistically difficult for an individual to prepare materials that will be accepted at trial. Therefore, if you have not received child support, which is your right as a custodian, you must take care of the first step, such as calculating the amount.

According to the police on the 22nd, a mandatory investigation was launched to identify the suspect in the video related to the recent claim by a YouTuber that she had an abortion at 36 weeks of pregnancy. The police, who received an investigation request from the Ministry of Health and Welfare on the 12th, assigned the case to the Seoul Metropolitan Police Agency's criminal task force and are speeding up the investigation by investigating a Ministry of Health and Welfare official as the complainant the next day. An official from the National Investigation Headquarters of the National Police Agency said at a regular press conference on the 22nd, “We executed a search and seizure warrant last week to identify the suspect.” When asked, “Did they search and seize YouTube Korea?” he answered, “It was a search and seizure of the media where the video was uploaded.” It has not yet been identified who the YouTuber in question is or who the doctor in charge of the abortion procedure was. Regarding this, the official said, "It will take some time to identify the person who posted the video, find out the facts, and determine the condition of the fetus." He added, "The exact situation and condition of the fetus must be confirmed before the charge is determined. If the abortion charge is found to be unconstitutional and the Ministry of Health and Welfare provides an opinion, we will review the law as a murder charge." Meanwhile, an expert who spoke to Segye Ilbo on this day said, “The 36th week of pregnancy is the time when childbirth is possible,” and added, “It appears that whether or not the child dies will determine whether a murder charge is established.” Under the criminal law, abortion was illegal for both the pregnant woman who caused the abortion and the doctor who performed the abortion, but in April 2019, the related article was ruled unconstitutional, and the crime of abortion was eliminated, so there are no punishment provisions. However, an official from the Ministry of Health and Welfare said, “We requested an investigation by referring to the court precedent that charged a doctor who aborted a 34-week fetus with murder,” and added, “We filed the complaint with the intention of asking for punishment if the facts (such as whether the abortion actually occurred) are correct.” The regulations that were determined to be unconstitutional are criminal laws, and the Enforcement Decree of the Maternal and Child Health Act (Article 15) allows abortions only within 24 weeks of pregnancy. However, abortion after 24 weeks of pregnancy is illegal under the Maternal and Child Health Act. Considering that there is no punishment for abortion under the criminal law, the Ministry of Health and Welfare requested an investigation on charges of murder instead of violation of the Maternal and Child Health Act. The legal community considers whether the child died at the time of birth as the key issue. Attorney Na-ri Park of Daeryun Law Firm pointed out, “Under civil law, it is important to determine whether the child was alive at the time of birth. If the child was alive, it can be considered murder.” However, he explained, “If the child was dead, it cannot be considered murder,” and “36 months of pregnancy is the time when you can give birth right away. It is clear that the child was born by cesarean section or induced labor, but there seems to be a high possibility that the child is alive.” He added, “The issue in this case is for the prosecution to understand the records after childbirth,” and added, “It appears that medical records or closed-circuit television (CCTV) can be decisive evidence.” He added, “Actually, if you look at the 2021 case law, the Seoul Central District Court sentenced an obstetrician to prison for causing death by burying the child after giving birth through induced labor at 34 weeks of pregnancy,” adding, “At that time, the crime of abortion had been abolished.” [View full article] - Are those in their 20s shaken by the suspicion of ‘36-week abortion’? Police identify suspect (link) 2026-05-09T01:49:54.112Z https://www.daeryunlaw.com/en/broadcast/3335 Law firm Daeryun refuses refund despite request for refund within deadline due to 'internal regulations', gathers consumers and prepares for class action lawsuit Yanolja "Refund within 10 minutes is rather a 'consumer protection policy'" The tyranny of the lodging platform Yanolja is rising to the surface. This is because even if consumers request a refund within a legal period after making a reservation, the refund is refused due to reasons such as internal regulations of the accommodation platform. Accordingly, consumers are preparing a class action lawsuit based on violations of the Electronic Commerce Act and the Terms and Conditions Act. According to Daeryun Law Firm on the 19th, it is recruiting consumers who have suffered damage from the accommodation platform to file a class action lawsuit. Although consumers expressed their intention to withdraw their subscription within a legal period, the fact that the accommodation platform refused to refund due to internal regulations became a problem. The areas that Daeryun took legal issue with were ▲violation of the E-Commerce Act and ▲violation of the Terms and Conditions Act. There are two things. First of all, according to Article 17 of the Electronic Commerce Act, the regulations related to withdrawal of subscription, consumers who purchased goods with mail order sellers can withdraw their subscription within a certain period of time. Most products traded under the Electronic Commerce Act can be withdrawn within a week. However, currently at Yanolja, you cannot get your money back unless you cancel within 10 minutes for products that are offered at special prices. According to Article 6, Paragraph 2 of the Terms and Conditions Act, clauses that are unfairly disadvantageous to customers, clauses that are difficult to predict, and clauses that limit fundamental rights are presumed to have lost fairness and are therefore invalid. Daeryun believed that Yanolja's refund policy was unfairly disadvantageous to customers. It is pointed out that fairness has been lost as the refund policy is favorable to Yanolja and unfavorable to the customer. A representative from Daeryun said, "I understand that if a refund is made with a short period of time left before the reservation date, Yanolja will have no time to resell the product, but 10 minutes is too short." He added, "Being able to cancel only within 10 minutes is extremely advantageous to the seller and unfavorable to the consumer." In response, Yanolja said, "Under the Electronic Commerce Act, we are a 'mail order intermediary' and have “It does not constitute a party to either party when concluding an accommodation contract between affiliated stores,” he said. “Due to the nature of accommodation products, resale opportunities are lost over time, so the provisions of the Electronic Commerce Act clearly state that cancellation of subscription does not apply.” Rather, the position is that a refund within 10 minutes is a 'consumer protection device' that allows cancellation even if the customer is negligent or simply changes his mind. Regarding the Terms and Conditions Act, he drew a line, saying, "The applicable subject is clearly defined in the law and there is no fact that our terms and conditions have been applied in the case, so it is not a case to discuss violation of the Terms and Conditions Act in the first place." Previously, Daeryun received a decision to provisionally seize the bond in a lawsuit against lodging platform Yanolja for the return of lodging fees. Currently, a lawsuit is being filed for refund of lodging expenses due to the policy of not being able to cancel same-day reservations. In 2016, a court ruling was issued stating that if you cancel a flight ticket purchased from an online shopping mall within a week, you can receive a full refund regardless of airline regulations. The purpose is to apply the Electronic Commerce Act, which stipulates that contracts unfavorable to consumers are invalid. [View full article] - Yanolja "No refund after 10 minutes"... Angry consumer class action lawsuit (link) 2026-05-09T16:41:17.696Z https://www.daeryunlaw.com/en/broadcast/3333 ■ Consumers are angry at the ‘refund only if cancellation within 10 minutes’ rule… A number of additional victims have been confirmed ■ Victims in the process of filing a claim for refund of lodging expenses have received a decision to have their bonds provisionally seized. Recently, as the number of cases of refunds being denied in the process of booking and canceling accommodations through online lodging platforms has increased, Daeryun Law Firm (Lihan) announced on the 17th that it has decided to recruit affected consumers and file a class action lawsuit. In particular, as the holiday season approaches, posts complaining about the refund regulations of lodging platforms are appearing one after another in online communities and social media. Even though they expressed their intention to cancel reservations within a legal period, lodging platforms unilaterally adopted a non-refundable policy, causing serious damage. According to the Korea Consumer Agency, the number of consumer consultations received in August last year, the peak summer vacation season, was 46,084, with consultations related to ‘hotels and pensions’ increasing the most at 96.4% compared to the previous month. The content of the consultation appeared to be mainly complaints about excessive cancellation penalties. According to Article 17 of the Electronic Commerce Act, consumers who have entered into a contract for the purchase of goods, etc. with a mail-order seller can express their intention to withdraw their subscription within 7 days from the date of receiving a written letter regarding the contents of the contract. If the consumer legally exercised the right to withdraw the contract, the seller must return the payment regardless of the reason, but many lodging platforms only allow cancellation requests within 10 minutes. The reservation system is operated by creating separate terms and conditions that allow for refunds. The accommodation platform claims that it is not subject to the law on the regulation of terms and conditions because it is only in charge of brokerage and is not a party to the contract. The lodging company also claims that it is not a party to the contract. Daeryun Law Firm (Limited) recognizes that there are many damages caused by the lodging platform's non-refundable policy and is taking the position of providing legal representation for the victims. Previously, Daeryun filed a lawsuit for refund of unfair profits once against the lodging platform on behalf of employee A. Mr. A made a hotel reservation through an accommodation platform, but immediately requested cancellation of the reservation. However, the lodging platform rejected Mr. A's request, saying that it would be difficult to issue a refund because the reservation was not canceled within 10 minutes. Accordingly, Daeryun Law Firm (Limited) filed a lawsuit against Yanolja, a lodging platform, on behalf of Mr. A. “We are currently receiving a flood of inquiries from consumers who have been harmed by similar cases,” he said. He added, “The refund policy created by the lodging platform violates several laws, including the Electronic Commerce Act and the Terms and Conditions Act, and is unfair because it excessively restricts consumers’ right to cancel without reasonable grounds.” He added, “We will help consumers exercise their reasonable rights.” [View full article] - Daeryun Law Firm (Limited) pursues a class action lawsuit for victims of lodging platforms (Click here) 2026-05-07T15:30:20.632Z https://www.daeryunlaw.com/en/broadcast/3322 Chungnam National University Law School fosters local legal talent who are well-versed in both legal theory and practice.

In this case, which occurred after the abortion law was abolished, the Ministry of Health and Welfare filed a complaint with the police accusing the woman of ‘murder’, and the police announced a strict response policy. An expert who spoke to Segye Ilbo on the 17th said, “If you are pregnant at 36, this is the time when you can give birth,” and added, “It seems that whether or not the child dies will determine whether a murder charge is established.” On the other hand, some people suspect ‘manipulation’ and claim that it is “simply to attract the attention of obese women.” This is because there are many cases where individual YouTubers manipulate broadcasts to increase the number of subscriptions. As the police begin their investigation, it appears that the truth will soon be revealed. Previously, the Ministry of Health and Welfare received a complaint from the police requesting that they investigate YouTuber A (claimed to be in her 20s) and the doctor in charge of A's surgery on murder charges. Person A, who claimed to be a woman in her 20s, posted a video on YouTube on the 27th of last month titled ‘Total surgery cost 9 million won, 120 hellish hours’ and claimed that she underwent an abortion at 36 weeks of pregnancy. She added, "At first, I didn't know I was pregnant, but I thought I just gained a lot of weight. The result of my indifferent attitude made me want to die." Person A reported that after being refused abortion surgery at several hospitals, she underwent incision surgery at one hospital. In response to Mr. A's claims, the Ministry of Health and Welfare requested an investigation after receiving legal advice. It is known that this is the first time that the Ministry of Health and Welfare has requested an investigation into a case of full-term abortion. Under the criminal law, abortion was illegal for both the pregnant woman who caused the abortion and the doctor who performed the abortion, but in April 2019, the related article was ruled unconstitutional, and the crime of abortion was eliminated, so there are no punishment provisions. However, an official from the Ministry of Health and Welfare said, “We requested an investigation by referring to the court precedent that charged a doctor who aborted a 34-week fetus with murder,” and added, “We filed the complaint with the intention of asking for punishment if the facts (such as whether the abortion actually occurred) are correct.” The regulations that were determined to be unconstitutional are criminal laws, and the Enforcement Decree of the Maternal and Child Health Act (Article 15) allows abortions only within 24 weeks of pregnancy. Abortion after 24 weeks of pregnancy is illegal under the Maternal and Child Health Act. Considering that there is no punishment for abortion under the criminal law, the Ministry of Health and Welfare requested an investigation on charges of murder instead of violation of the Maternal and Child Health Act. In relation to this, Seoul Metropolitan Police Agency Chief Jo Ji-ho said at a regular press conference that day, “There is an expert opinion that it is possible to come out of the womb and live an independent life at 36 weeks.” He added, “Unlike other general abortion cases, we plan to investigate heavily.” He continued, “Traditional theories and precedents related to abortion do not recognize the crime of murder, but an investigation into the specific circumstances is necessary.” He added, “We will look at the applicable laws and charges after comprehensive fact-checking of various types (forms), such as death in the uterus or outside the uterus.” The legal community is also in the same position as Commissioner Cho. Attorney Na-ri Park of Daeryun Law Firm, who spoke to Segye Ilbo on this day, pointed out, “Under civil law, it is important to determine whether the child was alive at the time of birth. If the child was alive, it can be considered murder.” However, he explained, “If the child was dead, it cannot be considered murder,” and “36 months of pregnancy is the time when you can give birth right away. It is clear that the child was born by cesarean section or induced labor, but there seems to be a high possibility that the child is alive.” He added, “The issue in this case is for the prosecution to understand the records after childbirth,” and added, “It appears that medical records or closed-circuit television (CCTV) can be decisive evidence.” He added, “Actually, if you look at the 2021 case law, the Seoul Central District Court sentenced an obstetrician to prison for causing death by burying the child after giving birth through induced labor at 34 weeks of pregnancy,” adding, “At that time, the crime of abortion had been abolished.” Meanwhile, it has not yet been confirmed whether the claim of ‘pregnancy abortion surgery’ is true. The police said, “The investigation must begin with the premise that it is true.” On the other hand, some argue that it is “a self-made play by an obese woman.” However, this too has not been confirmed. The woman in question deleted all related videos after it became public knowledge through the media.

Establishment of specialized group collaboration response team Corporate tax and income tax reduction, tax authorities investigation, etc. Reduce disposition through explanation of transaction entities Daeryun Law Firm announced on the 17th that it is actively responding to tax evasion risks and tax litigation by linking specialized groups such as corporate law and tax administration. Daeryun's corporate legal and tax administration group takes the lead in order to effectively respond to civil, criminal, and administrative cases related to tax evasion crimes. Attorney Won-il Won, head of the corporate legal group, served as a judge at the Seoul Central District Court, etc., and served as head of the legal office at the legal office of POSCO Holdings and POSCO Future M and handled numerous corporate dispute cases. Attorney Nae-won Kwak, head of the tax administration group, handles tax and administrative litigation at the Seoul Administrative Court. As an administrative and inheritance lawyer registered with the Korean Bar Association, he plays a key role in preemptive response to tax evasion risks. Under the leadership of the group leader, a team of 3 to 20 people, including tax attorneys, accountants, tax accountants, and digital forensic experts in each field, is formed and responded depending on the size of the case. In particular, intensive tax investigations are being conducted on small and medium-sized businesses that have recently received corporate tax and income tax reductions from the National Tax Service. In this regard, we are fully prepared. Previously, the tax authorities have introduced support measures to reduce corporate tax and income tax within a certain percentage in case of regional dispersion of companies and suppression of overcrowding and establishment of businesses outside of regions. Currently, as the number of cases of abuse of benefits increases, tax investigations are being conducted to check at the national level. Daeryun provides professional assistance from the tax audit process. It prevents incorrect responses to tax investigations, such as hiding data or submitting false data in order to reduce the amount of tax to be collected, and helps prevent it from escalating into a tax violation investigation. Attorney Won Hyeong-il said, “A tax investigation is slightly different from the interpretation of ordinary legal acts. What the parties to the case see from an accounting or taxation perspective may be different, so consultation with an expert is necessary.” He added, “It is necessary to consult with an expert.” He said, "We will be able to prepare thoroughly in advance before the issue escalates." Attorney Kwak Nae-won emphasized, "If you receive expert help from the tax investigation stage, even difficult cases can be easily resolved without going into tax litigation. The initial response determines the outcome. If you are caught up in a related case, it is advisable to get help from a tax lawyer who can clearly analyze the facts, regulations, and legal principles."

The main issue was whether or not prior knowledge of minors was a minor. On the 1st, the Constitutional Court ruled that the provisions of the criminal law punishing adultery by applying fictitious rape of minors to minors between the ages of 13 and 16 do not violate the Constitution. Article 297 of Article 305, Paragraph 2 of the Criminal Act, which stipulates punishment for adultery and molestation of minors; In the constitutional appeal case regarding Articles 297-2 and 298 (2022 Heonba 106, etc.), the judges unanimously decided that they were constitutional. According to Article 305 (Adultery and Molestation of a Minor) Paragraph 2 of the Criminal Act, if an adult over the age of 19 commits adultery or molestation with a minor between the ages of 13 and 16, it is considered rape, quasi-rape, or forcible molestation and is punished. It has nothing to do with the consent of the other party. Previously, this provision only applied when the victim was under the age of 13. However, as digital sex crimes against teenagers became controversial following the so-called 'N Room and Doctor's Room Incident', the Criminal Act was revised in May 2000. Paragraph 2 was newly established and the age standard was raised to ‘under 16’. This decision is the first judgment since the above provision was newly established. The Constitutional Court ruled that the provision did not violate the principle of prohibition of excessive sexual activity because it is a legal measure to protect minors from inappropriate sexual stimulation or infringing acts. The Constitutional Court said, “People between the ages of 13 and 16 cannot fully exercise their right to sexual self-determination, just like people under the age of 13.” The Constitutional Court said, “Even if the sexual act was done with consent, it is based on an incomplete understanding of the meaning of the sexual act, so it is not possible to fully exercise sexual self-determination.” “It cannot be evaluated as an exercise of the right to self-determination,” he said, explaining the reason for its constitutionality. The idea is that digital sex crimes against minors who lack the right to sexual self-determination are becoming more sophisticated, so minors should be protected more broadly. The petitioners for this constitutional petition are defendants who were indicted under the application of an increased age standard. The claimants claimed that the clause violated the principle of prohibition of excessiveness and violated the right to sexual self-determination and freedom of privacy. In particular, they said that this clause did not take into account the age, physical and mental maturity of the victim, or the specific relationship between the perpetrator and the victim. Limiting the punishment to those over 19 years old also raised issues. If you intentionally lied about your age in order to get a settlement, discussions on raising the age standard have been consistently raised, including the recommendation of the United Nations Committee on the Rights of the Child (UN CRC) to raise the age. This decision by the Constitutional Court goes beyond discussion and prepares practical measures as the exposure of youth to the risk of sexual crimes increases due to the activation of SNS, as in the 'N Room incident'. Recently, the court has been imposing stronger punishments on sexual crimes against minors. Article 302 of the Criminal Act stipulates that a person who commits adultery or molestation against a minor or a mentally weak person through fraud or force shall be punished by imprisonment for not more than 5 years. If rape is committed through assault or intimidation, it is punished in accordance with Article 7, Paragraph 1 of the Special Act on the Punishment of Sexual Violence Crimes, and is punishable by imprisonment for life or imprisonment for a fixed term of 10 years or more. Sometimes, the victim intentionally approaches the victim by lying about his or her age in order to get a settlement money, or Because it is difficult to identify age, if the act was committed under the assumption that the victim was an adult, charges may be unfairly applied. During the trial, whether prior knowledge of the fact that the victim was under the age of 13 becomes an important issue. At this time, you must prove that you did not know the victim's age through objective evidence. If you have been wrongfully accused, you must consult with a professional lawyer from the beginning of the case to come up with a plan to prove the circumstances at the time of meeting the victim. Legal assistance is needed to collect objective evidence and prevent intentionality from being recognized.

A lodging platform that was sued for failing to cancel reservations on the same day received a decision to seize the bonds. Daeryun Law Firm (Limited) announced on the 12th that it would recruit affected consumers and file a class action lawsuit. Recently, online communities and social media requested a refund because the quality was significantly lower than the accommodations booked, but the lodging platform cited internal regulations. Complaints such as refusal of refunds are increasing one after another. Daeryun pointed out that “even though consumers have expressed their intention to withdraw their subscription within a legal period, the damage is growing uncontrollably due to the accommodation platform that has a non-refundable policy.” The legal community is arguing that the accommodation platform only acted as an intermediary and is not a party to the contract, so it is not subject to the application of the Act on Regulation of Terms and Conditions (Terms and Conditions Act), and the accommodation company is also not a party to the contract. However, Daeryun said, "The number of victims is continuing to increase. We are currently receiving a flood of inquiries from consumers who have been harmed in similar cases. We are preparing a class action lawsuit to claim compensation for damages as well as refunds of lodging expenses. The results of the lodging fee refund lawsuit that we started will be the first step in class action lawsuits to be filed in the future." Daeryun argued that “the accommodation platform’s refund policy violates a number of laws, including the Electronic Commerce Act and the Terms and Conditions Act,” and that “the damaged consumer’s claim for the return of unfair profits is a legitimate request, and the refund policy can be considered invalid.” [Read the full article] The Fact - Daeryun Law Firm initiates class action lawsuit for victims of unfair refund policy of accommodation platform (Go here) Law Leader - Daeryun Law Firm invites class action lawsuit for victims of unfair refund policy of accommodation platform (Go here) 2026-05-13T13:40:59.102Z https://www.daeryunlaw.com/en/broadcast/3297 A worker who was inspecting a gas pipe in an underground machine room was found not guilty by the fall death court, saying, "There is no evidence of work instructions or neglect without safety measures... acquitted." Public institution officials indicted in an accident in which a worker died after falling while inspecting a gas pipe in an underground machine room were found not guilty on charges such as manslaughter due to occupational negligence. On May 22, the Western Branch of the Busan District Court (Presiding Judge Soo-hong Kim) was found guilty of violating the Occupational Safety and Health Act and causing manslaughter due to occupational negligence. A public institution under the Ministry of Patriots and Veterans Affairs and Mr. B, the manager of the management department, who were handed over to trial, were found not guilty. Mr. C, the person in charge of the facility who was indicted on the same charge, was sentenced to 6 months in prison, 2 years of probation, and 40 hours of community service. Previously, in July 2021, worker D fell in the machine room on the first basement floor of a hospital in Busan in the process of inspecting and working on a problem with a nitrogen gas pipe. He was later taken to the hospital and received treatment, but died. The incident occurred at the Busan branch of public institution A, but was prosecuted under the dual punishment rule. The dual penalty provision is a system that punishes the offender and holds the corporation or individual responsible when a representative or executive or employee violates the law. The court stated the reason for the acquittal, saying, “There is no evidence to suggest that the defendants, public institution A and Mr. B, were in charge of administrative work and instructed or neglected to work without taking safety measures.” It added, “Mr. C, the person in charge of the facility, is a practitioner who directly manages and supervises the work, and should be seen as a professional negligence for failing to take necessary safety measures.” The defendant added. Daeryun Law Firm (Liuhan), which served as legal representative, said, “A violation of the Occupational Safety and Health Act applies when the business owner or actor orders work without taking safety measures in relation to work with safety risks stipulated by law at the workplace, or neglects the work while knowing that work is being done without safety measures in place,” adding, “Defendant B, as an administrative officer, did not know the specific work of the machine room. The work log was also written in a formal way, and there was no evidence to suggest that he was aware of this.” Accordingly, the Corporation also came to the conclusion that punishment is not possible under the dual punishment provisions,” he explained. He also said, “It cannot be said that there was a specific and direct violation of the duty of care by the defendant, Mr. C, such as ordering the victim to exclude himself from work due to safety issues, and an agreement was reached with the bereaved family, so they do not want to be punished.” Meanwhile, the Act on Punishment for Serious Accidents, etc. stipulates the punishment of business owners, management managers, corporations, etc. who violate the duty of safety measures under the Occupational Safety and Health Act and causes serious accidents, starting this year. It was also implemented in workplaces with fewer than 50 employees. If a serious accident occurs due to failure to fulfill obligations, the business owner or manager may be subject to imprisonment for more than one year or a fine of up to 1 billion won. Corporations can also be fined up to 5 billion won under the dual penalty rule. [View full article] - Worker falls to death...

Incheon District Court Judge Kim Saet-byeol takes into account sentencing factors such as first offense and victim agreement... and sentences a suspended sentence. A ruling was made to sentence a man in his 30s to a suspended prison sentence for exchanging explicit photos with a minor victim using a chat app. Judge Kim Saet-byeol of the Incheon District Court, Criminal Division 11, recently issued a ruling on the sexual protection of children and adolescents. Mr. A (32 years old), who was indicted on charges of violating the law ('Youth Sexual Protection Act') (conversation for the purpose of sexual exploitation, etc.), was sentenced to '4 months in prison and 2 years of probation.' According to the prosecution's indictment, Mr. A was accused of engaging in obscene chatting with a victim he found out through a chat app in March 2023 and receiving body photos, etc., on a total of 12 occasions. Charges of sending messages requesting obscene acts more than 100 times were also applied. The victim's age at the time was confirmed to be 15 years old. Conversation for the purpose of sexual exploitation of minors is a crime newly established in Article 15-2 of the Youth Sexual Protection Act in 2021 to punish the act of repeating sexual conversations among the crimes of 'online grooming'. Even if there is no such crime, it is a serious crime that can result in a prison sentence. In particular, if a conversation for the purpose of sexual exploitation occurs while the other person is recognized as a minor, a more severe punishment will be imposed. In this criminal trial, Mr. A's legal representative argued that the defendant did not intentionally approach the victim and that he committed the crime after being unable to withstand the temptation of the victim who was actively engaging in sexual conversation while in a psychologically weak state due to financial difficulties. In addition, Mr. A has never been punished other than this case. He argued that it was his first offense, and that he had reached an agreement with the victim and that the victim had expressed his intention not to punish Mr. A. Shin Yong-hoon, a lawyer at Daeryun Law Firm (Lihan), who represented Mr. A as the legal representative in this case, said, “In this case, the defendant also sent a photo of his body under the active leadership of the victim. In this case, an accurate understanding of the facts and a strategic defense are necessary to prevent the case from going in a direction that only favors the victim.” He added, “Recognize that the victim is a minor. “The reality is that under certain circumstances, the punishment is more severe. However, in this case, the fact that it was a first offense and the application for non-punishment could have been taken into consideration,” he explained.

The defense lawyer said, "The object of the forcible molestation crime is regardless of the same or opposite sex." A man in his 40s who repeatedly sexually harassed a subordinate of the same sex was sentenced to prison in the first trial. On June 19, the Pohang Branch of the Daegu District Court charged Mr. A, a man in his 40s, who was brought to trial on charges of forcible molestation and assault, for forcible molestation. He was sentenced to one year in prison and two months in prison for assault. In addition, Mr. A was ordered to complete a 40-hour sexual violence treatment program and restricted from employment at child and youth-related institutions for 3 years. Mr. A was indicted on charges of forcibly molesting a subordinate at the same company several times over a period of about a year from June 2021. A charge of assault was also added because the victim employee intervened in the conversation. Immediately after the crime, the victim reported this to the Ministry of Employment and Labor, and an investigation was conducted, and Mr. A was suspended from work for 30 days. At the time of the crime, Mr. A was found to be the perpetrator of a similar sexual crime and was being investigated and tried. The court said, "Even though the victim clearly expressed his refusal each time, the defendant dismissed it as a joke and committed similar acts against other co-workers. He stated the reason for the prison sentence, saying, “I committed it.” He then pointed out, "When I confronted the victim to apologize, he again touched the victim without her consent and made her feel uncomfortable. If this is the defendant's habit, he should be severely scolded and corrected." The court added that it decided on the sentence considering the fact that Mr. A has a history of being punished for similar crimes and the fact that the victim is pleading for severe punishment. It is known that the victim did not receive a proper apology from Mr. A and suffered from extreme stress as he continued to face Mr. A in the same space. Daeryun Law Firm, which represented the victim, emphasized that "the object of the crime of forcible molestation under the criminal law is regardless of whether it is the same sex or the opposite sex," and "sexual acts against the will of the parties must be severely punished."

A large-scale case of non-return of rental deposits occurred in Jeonju, Jeollabuk-do. Tenants who have not received their deposit back are raising suspicions of lease fraud and taking legal action, including registering their lease. The lessor is Mr. Kwak. As a result of 〈Current Affairs IN〉 coverage, the real estate estimated to be owned by Mr. Kwak, the landlord, amounts to 89 multi-family houses (6 buildings) in Jeonju alone and 94 multi-family houses (6 buildings). Among the rental households for which 〈Sisa IN〉 checked copies of the registers, 34 had already established lease registration (a device to protect tenants who did not receive their deposit back). This is the first time that a large-scale case of non-return of rental deposits has occurred in the Jeonju area of ​​Jeollabuk-do. Lee Jae-hyung (pseudonym, 30), an office worker living in Jeonju, Jeollabuk-do, moved to A multi-family house in Wansan-gu, Jeonju, close to his workplace in June 2021. The rental deposit was 85 million won and the contract period was 2 years. They said I could not sign up for the rental deposit return guarantee. The owner listed on the register (certificate of all registered details) was Mr. Kim, but the actual lessor was played by Mr. Kim's son, Mr. Kwak. Mr. Kwak said, “I became a bad credit holder while doing business 10 years ago. The only person I could use was my mother’s name, so I used my mother’s name.” Before signing the lease contract, Mr. Lee Jae-hyung asked real estate agent Mr. Kim if it was a safe building. A mortgage of 538 million won was placed on the building that Mr. Kwak purchased for 750 million won in his mother's name in November 2020. Broker Mr. Kim told the anxious Mr. Lee, “Mr. Kwak, the landlord, has a large business and has a lot of real estate, including buildings, so you don’t have to worry about returning the deposit.” Not only Mr. Lee, but also six neighboring tenants who signed a contract with Mr. Kwak through real estate agent Mr. Kim, heard the same story. Most of them are young people in their 20s and 30s around Lee's age. One year and 9 months have passed since Jaehyung Lee signed a lease contract. In March of last year, three months before the lease contract expired, Mr. Lee told the landlord, Mr. Kwak, that he would move to another place when the contract ended. Mr. Kwak also answered that he understood. However, no new tenant was found. The landlord, Mr. Kwak, explained to Mr. Lee that this was because the tenant, Mr. Cho (31), who lived in the same building, set up a lease registration in April of that year. Tenants who did not receive their deposit back on the expiration date of the contract can apply for a lease registration order from the very next day. A house with a lease registration registered means that the landlord has not returned the deposit. As a tenant looking for a new home, you have no choice but to be reluctant. In early June 2023, the landlord, Mr. Kwak, said to Mr. Jaehyung Lee, “Please wait two more months.” ‘Building H in Deokjin-gu, Jeonju was auctioned off for 4.5 billion won, but the money is tied up there. He was persuaded that a loan would be issued from Building H in two months, around August 2023. Mr. Lee didn't quite understand, but when he said there were circumstances, he replied, "I'll just wait two months."“Turn 4.5 billion won into 18 billion won.”It was only later that I learned that Mr. Kim, the real estate agent who had persuaded me that ‘there is no problem in returning the deposit’, was intertwined with financial interests with Mr. Kwak, the landlord. According to the landlord Mr. Kwak's explanation to , broker Mr. Kim brokers 60-70% of the real estate properties owned by Mr. Kwak (see ). The CEO of ‘R Company’, which purchased Building H at auction, is broker Mr. Kim. In the corporate register of R Company, the mother of the landlord, Ms. Kwak, is listed as a director of the company. Broker Mr. Kim, the CEO of 'R Company', told , "It has nothing to do with the rental deposit (which Mr. Kwak has to return to the tenants). I just lent the name, and he (Mr. Kwak) runs the operation. I have never received a single penny from there (R Company)." Landlord Kwak acquired Building H in the name of R Company for 4.5 billion won in April 2023, while Jaehyung Lee was waiting for the return of the rental deposit. Mr. Kwak told 〈Sisa IN〉, "Originally, I am a person who works in the rental and interior design business. Due to the 'Villa King, lease fraud incident', the number of (lease) demand has decreased. So I changed my business direction. I used the jeonse money to sell a building worth 15 billion won at an auction for 4.5 billion won, and then remodeled it to make 18 billion won. I have the ability to repay. Paying off the 1 to 2 billion won in jeonse is difficult. “It’s nothing,” he claims. “We communicate frequently with tenants, and nine out of ten pay interest (on rent deposit loans) every month.” Tenant Lee Jae-hyung’s story is different. From July 2023, the landlord, Mr. Kwak, did not answer the phone often. I had to leave text messages saying ‘Please call me’ repeatedly on July 10th, July 24th, and July 25th. Even in August 2023, when the deposit was scheduled to be returned, it was difficult to contact them. Mr. Kwak asked Mr. Lee to wait a little longer as he would give him the loan interest. The date on which Mr. Kwak said he would return the deposit was postponed one after another. After continuing to try to contact Mr. Jaehyung Lee, he met the landlord, Mr. Kwak, on November 11, 2023. By the end of December of that year, Mr. Kwak wrote a memorandum saying, “I will immediately return the entire deposit of 85 million won.” Mr. Lee believed the memorandum written by Mr. Kwak. On December 1st of that year, I signed a contract for a new house. The down payment was 26 million won. However, as the deposit return date approached, it became difficult to talk to Mr. Kwak again. ‘Please call me (December 4th)’ ‘Please call me (December 5th)’ ‘Why aren’t you calling me? (December 6th)’ I left a message to Mr. Kwak. Only on December 7 did Mr. Kwak send a text message saying, ‘Please extend the period by two months.’ ‘No. ‘I no longer trust the boss.’ If the deposit was not returned, the 26 million won down payment Mr. Lee paid would also be lost. Instead of avoiding calls from Lee Jae-hyung, Mr. Kwak only left a text saying, ‘Something bad is happening at home,’ ‘I am in mourning, so I am not in a good mood,’ and ‘I will pay interest, so please extend the period for six months.’ Mr. Lee said this, recalling the situation at the time. “It was so hard. I couldn’t sleep, so I drank a lot every day. Then I developed acute pancreatitis. I was diagnosed with depression by a psychiatrist, and I endured it by taking depression medication and sleeping pills. Once I started taking sleeping pills, I couldn’t stop taking them, so I’m still taking them.” Unable to wait any longer, Mr. Lee began legal action, including filing for provisional seizure of real estate on December 12, 2023, and filing a lawsuit requesting the return of the deposit.Need to save the landlord?Lee Jae-hyung is not the only tenant who cannot contact his landlord, Mr. Kwak.. Located in Deokjin-gu, Jeonju H Mr. Kwak's tenants often visit in front of the building..

This is because business went wrong, so let’s wait a little longer.’He also claimed that. Broker Mr. Kim also emphasized this point and defended Mr. Kwak.. Broker Mr. Kim 〈previewIN〉to “(Even if I file a lawsuit) The government does not provide even a penny of tenant deposit.. The lessor still has some capital., We must all work together to save the landlord.. From the tenant's perspective (loan interest) It's better to take at least a little bit and wait.”said.Jaehyung Lee said he understands the cautious attitude of other tenants.. “Mr. Kwak didn't blindly ask me to wait, but instead explained the situation, so I waited at first.. Just a little more, Just a little more 1Years have passed. At first, I really didn't realize this had happened to me., I was very in denial.. Then I got angry, I was depressed after that.. ‘What is real?’ I thought about this a lot. The last step is, give up.”Mr. Kwak, the landlord, “this business 2020It started in the winter of”said. After purchasing an old multi-family house or multi-family house and decorating it, This is a method of offering a lease at a higher price than the sale price..

Multi-family housing lease fraud involves hiding the total amount of the senior lease deposit., This occurs when the total of the mortgage and deposit exceeds the market price of the house.. Jae-Hyung Lee's world contract says: ‘Signing a contract after establishing a mortgage and confirming the deposit details for each household’Although it is written that, Mr. Lee said he had not received any explanation for it..However, the landlord, Mr. Kwak, is unable to return the rental deposit due to the current situation. ‘charter fraud’It is claimed that it is not.

(In addition to the purchase price) From employment registration tax to interior design costs 14It cost billions of won. If you do the calculation, the selling price is actually 18It's about 100 million won. (A Multi-family housing) The deposit 10100 million~11It's about 100 million won, so even if you pay all the rent, it won't reach this amount..”Attorney Lee Ha-neul reported the landlord, Mr. Kwak, to the police on behalf of the tenants.(Daeryun Law Firm)think differently. past 5Attorney Wol Ha-neul is the landlord, Mr. Kwak, and Mr. Kwak's mother., Buying a lease with real estate agent Mr. Kim(Fraud and violation of the Act on Registration of Names of Actual Real Estate Owners) reported to the police on suspicion of. This lawyer “(Excluding the mortgage from the sale price) Date of acquisition of ownership 2020year 11The actual value of the menstrual building is 2100 million2000It was only 10,000 won. “A multi-family house is already a so-called ‘tin building’ that cannot guarantee the full amount of the deposit.” Mr. Kwak, the landlord, still insists that he has the ability to repay the deposit. Approximately 7 billion won is expected to be borrowed from Building H, and it is claimed that the current inability to return the deposit is due to a temporary fund crunch. According to broker Mr. Kim, Mr. Kwak continued the lease contract in April when he was unable to return the deposit of other tenants. Broker Mr. Kim told , “If the landlord is completely penniless, I cannot guarantee (the return of the deposit). But it is not yet 0 won. With a little money, you can pay the interest of many tenants. But I don’t have enough money to give a lump sum of 60 million or 70 million won. Still, (Mr. Kwak) is trying. He said, "It takes time for a landlord to raise his own capital." However, it has been confirmed that the landlord, Mr. Kwak, is unable to return the deposit even for cases in which he lost in the current trial. Mr. Amugae Cho (31), a tenant who registered the lease for multi-family house A in April last year, recently won a lawsuit against Mr. Kwak for the return of the deposit. On January 17, the Jeonju District Court ordered the landlord, Mr. Kwak, to return the deposit of Mr. Jo, a tenant of multi-family house A. While filing the lawsuit, Mr. Cho, who had moved from Jeonju to Daejeon for work, was unable to move his house because he did not receive his deposit back, so he commuted from Jeonju to Daejeon every day for three months. “Blood dries day by day,” he said.“The lease scam in Michuhol-gu, Incheon was the same.”There was also a case where a tenant living in a house owned by Mr. Kwak (a different name) was recognized as a ‘victim of a lease fraud.’ An official from the Housing and Construction Department of the Jeonbuk Provincial Office said, "Early this year, one application for damage to a multi-family house B lease fraud was received, and the person was recognized as a victim. At the end of May, two cases were also filed for a multi-family house A, but no decision has been made yet (whether or not to be recognized as a victim)." According to the current standards, a person is recognized as a victim of lease fraud when the following four requirements are met. When a move-in report is completed and a confirmed date is provided, when the rental deposit is 300 million won or less (maximum 500 million won or less), when damage has occurred or is expected to occur that prevents multiple tenants from receiving the rental deposit, and when there is significant reason to suspect that the tenant intends not to return the rental deposit. Among the tenants living in houses owned by Mr. Kwak under borrowed names, there are many tenants who say they will wait longer for the situation of the landlord, Mr. Kwak, to improve. Lee Won-ho, chairman of the ‘Civil Society Countermeasures Committee to Resolve the Problem of Jeonse Fraud and Tin Lease,’ said, “Incheon’s Michuhol-gu Construction King, a representative Jeonse Fraud, also presented the logic at trial (like Mr. Kwak, the landlord), saying, ‘He did not intend to commit fraud. It is a temporary problem as sales are not taking place due to the current economic situation. Otherwise, it can be resolved.’ In this situation, tenants are bound to be confused, ‘Am I a victim of Jeonse Fraud?’ “There is no need to be recognized as a victim of lease fraud in order to receive support under the changed system.” Previously, an official from the Jeonbuk Provincial Office's Housing and Construction Department explained, "First of all, you have to report it to the police. Among the requirements for us to recognize you as a victim of a rental fraud, we look at whether an investigation into the landlord has been initiated. The most important thing is whether an investigation has been initiated." The Jeonbuk Provincial Police Agency has been looking into this case since June 13. To date, 〈Sisa IN〉 has identified 12 residential buildings (183 households) belonging to Mr. Kwak (owned under a borrowed name) through register copy verification, inquiries, and various reporting processes. Since the building is purchased under someone else's name, there may be more houses that Mr. Kwak actually owns in addition to the buildings that 〈Sisa IN〉 itself confirmed. An official from the Jeonbuk Police Agency's anti-corruption and economic crime investigation unit said, "We are currently collecting cases. We plan to investigate quickly after determining the extent of the damage." Jaehyung Lee said, "It's been six months since I filed a lawsuit requesting the return of the deposit, and there's still no deadline. I feel sick and frustrated." A week after my interview with Mr. Lee, I contacted him again. “Reporter, do you know where to apply for damage from lease fraud?” [View full article] - [Exclusive] Suspicious rented house in Jeonju is still ‘for sale’ (Click here) 2026-05-11T08:43:18.834Z https://www.daeryunlaw.com/en/broadcast/3262 Yeungnam University Law School improves understanding through theory-practice education and contributes to improving legal culture and service levels through industry-academia cooperationDaeryun Law Firm (Limited) announced that it signed an MOU with Yeungnam University Law School (Law School) on the 2nd.

We provide professional evidence collection and analysis services by introducing state-of-the-art equipment to resolve various civil and criminal issues, including personal family affairs, corporate technology leaks, embezzlement, and breach of trust.

Person A is currently receiving treatment at the hospital for injuries to his ribs. Jeong Yong-woo, head of the traffic division at Namdaemun Police Station in Seoul, said at a press briefing on this day, “The driver who caused the fatal accident, Mr. A, has been booked on charges of professional negligence manslaughter under the Special Act on Traffic Accidents.” Chief Jeong said, “We will conduct a strict and prompt investigation, including a thorough verification of the facts,” and added, “As we proceed with the case, we will review from various angles whether to apply for an arrest warrant.” Regarding Mr. A's claim that the accident occurred due to 'sudden acceleration,' Manager Jeong explained, "The basis for sudden acceleration so far is only the suspect's statement, and even if it is sudden acceleration, the charges do not change." He added, "For additional confirmation, we plan to request an identification of the vehicle from the National Forensic Service." The police placed a screen on the vehicle that was involved in the accident this morning and moved it to the National Forensic Service. The National Forensic Service's vehicle accident recording device (EDR) analysis usually takes one to two months. The police are reconstructing the circumstances at the time of the accident and the movements of the offending vehicle based on statements from people involved in the incident, eyewitnesses, closed-circuit TV (CCTV), and black box footage. Manager Jeong said, “Following accident resolution and scene preservation, we are now in the stage of collecting evidence. Since we have not analyzed the video yet, it is difficult to tell you the specific details of the accident, such as whether it accelerated, how it was driven, and where it hit.” The police said that Mr. A did not attempt to run away from the scene of the accident, and that no traces of alcohol or drugs were detected after conducting a breathalyzer test and quick drug test. Meanwhile, the legal community expressed the opinion that although it is possible to gauge whether a sudden action has occurred based on the current situation, proving this seems virtually impossible. Attorney Choi Hyun-deok of Daeryun Law Firm, who spoke to Segye Ilbo on this day, said that once sudden acceleration is recognized, it can be considered a defect in the vehicle. He said that in this case, it is difficult to bring charges because there was no driver negligence. Regarding the police charging Mr. A with professional negligence manslaughter under the Special Act on Traffic Accidents, Attorney Choi said, “At present, it appears to be considered a traffic accident.” This is because it is not yet known whether there will be a sudden outbreak or not. On the other hand, if the driver's negligence is found, pursuant to Article 3, Paragraph 1 of the Special Punishment Act, which stipulates special provisions for traffic accident punishment, if the driver commits a crime under Article 268 of the Criminal Act (professional negligence or gross negligence resulting in death) due to a traffic accident, the driver may be subject to imprisonment for up to 5 years or a fine of up to 20 million won, and is also liable for civil damages, Attorney Choi explained. He predicted, “The basic prison sentence for casualties in a traffic accident is between 8 months and a maximum of 2 years,” and added, “There were many casualties in this accident. A maximum of 2 years in prison could also be imposed.” He added, “It seems difficult to reduce the sentence if recovery from damages, such as reaching an agreement with the victim, is not possible.” Regarding the suspicion of sudden acceleration, he said, “Currently, the opinion of eyewitness experts is that ‘it was not a sudden acceleration,’” but pointed out, “There has yet to be a case in Korea where sudden acceleration has been acknowledged.” At the same time, he said, “It is impossible to conclude that it was not a sudden acceleration just by looking at the video of the vehicle gradually coming to a stop currently released by the media,” and “Given the circumstances, it is contradictory to discuss whether or not there was a sudden acceleration.” He added, “In the case of this accident, it boils down to the issue of proving sudden acceleration of the vehicle, and the court cannot admit it as evidence if there is no evidence. However, it seems that it can be taken into consideration in the sentencing standards. If sudden acceleration is not recognized, it is the driver’s fault, so excessive punishment is possible.” [View full article] - Driver booked for ‘City Hall Station accident’… Expert: “The possibility of imprisonment is not something we can discuss at the moment” (Shortcut) 2026-05-10T14:49:34.268Z https://www.daeryunlaw.com/en/broadcast/3235 Gap investment method produces hundreds of victims, ‘18 billion won’ jeonse fraudster sentenced to 15 years in prison, ‘maximum sentence in law’ Sentencing committee discusses new sentencing standards for jeonse fraud, insurance fraud, and voice phishing… Deliberation in August ​ Amid the recent increase in property crimes targeting the common people, such as voice phishing and real estate fraud, a man in his 50s who committed a lease fraud worth 18 billion won was sentenced to heavy punishment in the second trial. Changes are expected in the sentencing standards for fraud crimes in the future. The Busan District Court's Criminal Appeal Division 4-1 dismissed the defendant's appeal at the appellate sentencing hearing of a woman in her 50s indicted on fraud charges on the 20th and maintained the original sentence of 15 years in prison. The court dismissed the defendant's appeal, saying, "The defendant appealed that the sentence in the first trial was heavy, but there are no special circumstances to change the sentence." The defendant has been in Busan since 2020. The charge is that he received a total of 18 billion won in rental deposits from 229 victims while running a building rental business in the region through ‘capital-free gap investment’ and then did not return them. Considering the seriousness of the crime, the social harm caused by it, and the pain of victims who have not recovered, the first trial court sentenced the maximum sentence of 15 years in prison, which is higher than the 13 years sought by the prosecution, to 15 years in prison. Soo-yeon Son of Daeryun Law Firm (Limited), the victim’s legal representative. The lawyer said, “Nowadays, in economic crimes, especially fraud crimes, even if the amount of damage is high, if it is a first-time offender, there is a vague belief that probation will be given even if the damage is not recovered, but now, if the actual damage is not recovered, even a first-time offender can be considered for imprisonment.” He added, “For victims, even if the punishment for fraud offenders is strengthened, a path to recovery of actual damage can be opened,” he emphasized. The Supreme Court also revised the sentencing standards for fraud crimes for the first time in 13 years. Attention is focused on the announcement that strengthening punishment will be discussed. The Supreme Court Sentencing Committee (Sentencing Committee) announced plans to deliberate on revisions to the sentencing guidelines for fraud crimes at a plenary meeting in April. This is the first time there has been a discussion on revisions to the sentencing standards for fraud crimes, which were established and implemented in 2011. Previously, as fraud crimes targeting the common people, such as insurance fraud, voice phishing, coin/multi-level fraud, and real estate fraud, continued to occur, it was pointed out that punishment should be strengthened. In the case of existing fraud sentences, if the damage per victim exceeds 500 million won, the punishment is increased. Under the Special Police Act, a sentence of up to life imprisonment is possible when the amount of profit from fraud is more than 5 billion won, but according to the Sentencing Commission's sentencing guidelines, a basic sentence of 5 to 8 years is imposed for crimes where the amount of damage is more than 5 billion won but less than 30 billion won. In particular, in the case of insurance fraud, there were 6,209 old cases sentenced between 2018 and 2022, which is the largest number based on the case name among crimes for which sentencing standards are not set. It was calculated by number. However, the punishment is nothing more than a mild punishment, with a fine rate of more than five times that of general fraud. In addition, voice phishing is also a crime targeting the common people and is systematically carried out, and the damage is also large. The Sentencing Commission said, “As crimes such as real estate fraud, voice phishing, and insurance fraud increase, there is a high demand for stronger punishment for types of organized fraud,” adding, “The recommended sentencing range has not been revised since the sentencing standards for fraud crimes were established and implemented in 2011. “There is a need to reflect changes in social and economic changes and public awareness,” he explained. The Sentencing Commission plans to focus on revising the recommended sentencing range for organized fraud rather than general fraud. If the sentencing standards for fraud crimes are strengthened, it is expected that the harsh punishment that has been handed down so far in relation to crimes victimizing ordinary people will be put to rest. Meanwhile, the Sentencing Commission plans to deliberate and confirm the revised sentencing standards for fraud crimes on August 12. Afterwards, a public hearing will be held and a final decision on each sentencing standard will be made in March of next year.

There are many cases where people are so nervous just because a tax investigation is about to begin that they are unable to claim anything legitimate.. Furthermore, there are many cases in which cases that could be handled as simple tax collections are converted into tax violation cases by concealing data or submitting false information in order to reduce the amount of tax to be collected."While conveying "Even if you undergo a tax audit, consult with an expert., There are surprisingly many cases where it is possible to persuade the tax authorities if you explain the transaction in accordance with its substance, so it is advantageous to get help from an expert rather than trying to solve it on your own."advised.Attorney Won shared his experience with a tax case that seemed somewhat difficult. "Tax audits are slightly different from the interpretation of ordinary legal acts.. Since the person who actually transacts according to the law becomes a problem, if you are involved in a related incident, what you think and what the accounting, Views from a tax perspective may differ, so consultation with an expert is necessary."He emphasized.Meanwhile, Attorney Kwak also introduces his experience serving as a judge in the court.

However, the remaining three charges were acknowledged and sentenced to eight months in prison and two years of probation. Mr. A was driving after drinking at around 0:01 on December 12, 2021, and collided with a vehicle that entered the intersection from the other side at Jangsan Intersection in Taean, South Chungcheong Province. The other vehicle was damaged by the impact and four people in their 20s in the car were injured, but fled without taking any action. However, he immediately returned and surrendered himself to the police, and Mr. A's blood alcohol level measured at that time was 0.170%. The prosecution claimed that Mr. A injured the victim because he was not careful due to the influence of alcohol. According to Daeryun Law Firm, if your blood alcohol level is 0.1% or higher, you are usually sentenced to 1 to 2 years in prison or a fine of 5 to 10 million won. Under the current law, a person is punished for drunk driving even if the blood alcohol concentration is only 0.03%, and the prosecution also used this situation as a basis. However, the 1st and 2nd trial courts found that Mr. A was not guilty of causing injury by dangerous driving. The court cited the following as grounds: △ Mr. A, who was stopped at the stop line, moved slowly when the traffic light changed to a flashing signal at midnight and two other vehicles crossing the intersection passed; △ When Mr. A's vehicle passed through the middle of the intersection, the victim's vehicle entered the intersection late at a considerable speed without slowing down from the side; △ The fact that the victim's vehicle, which discovered Mr. A's vehicle late, turned to the right. In addition, it was pointed out that just because Mr. A drove while drunk at a level of 0.170%, it does not immediately mean that he was in a state that made normal driving difficult. The first trial court found that the main fault of this accident was the victim's vehicle, and the second trial court also ruled that the accident occurred due to a combination of the victim's negligence and Mr. A's negligence in neglecting his duty to look left and right. The second trial court explained the reason for sentencing by saying, “If we add the circumstances that the original trial used as the basis for innocence and the facts and circumstances based on the evidence legally adopted, it is difficult to say that the evidence presented by the prosecutor alone proved that ‘normal driving is difficult due to the influence of alcohol.’” “Because there is no violation of factual misconception or misunderstanding of legal principles claimed by the prosecutor in the original trial’s judgment of innocence, we do not accept the appeal for the ‘dangerous driving injury’ portion,” and explained the reason for sentencing. Meanwhile, if you are caught for drunk driving, you will be subject to both criminal and administrative sanctions. If your blood alcohol concentration is 0.03% or more but less than 0.08%, you will be subject to 100 demerit points (100-day license suspension). If your blood alcohol concentration is 0.08% or higher, your driver's license will be revoked for one year. At this time, anyone who refuses to take a breathalyzer test will also have their license revoked for one year, and anyone who has been caught more than twice will have their license revoked for two years.

Victims say, "We shouldn't go to the Supreme Court" In the first trial of the 18 billion won jeonse fraud case in Busan last month, the court sentenced the defendant to a heavier sentence than the prosecutors recommended, saying, "It is a serious crime of using the rental deposit, which is almost the entire property of ordinary people, as a means of profit-seeking." On the 20th, the appeals court also upheld this judgment. The victims and civil society reacted by saying that a natural conclusion had been reached. Criminal Division 4-1 of the Busan District Court dismissed the appeal of Mr. Choi, in his 50s, who was indicted on fraud charges at the sentencing hearing held in courtroom 354 on this day. The court, which considered the original trial's sentence to be appropriate, did not accept the defendant's argument, saying, "There are no special circumstances to change it." After the first trial sentence, Mr. Choi immediately submitted an appeal, saying that the sentence was severe. Mr. Choi was handed over to trial on charges of failing to return 18 billion won in rental deposits received from 229 tenants of 9 buildings, including studio apartments, through capital-free gap investment from 2020 to January of last year. The damage amount at the initial indictment stage was 16 billion won, but the amount increased as additional damage was confirmed. Regarding this, Choi's lawyer protested, saying, "We are making efforts to repay," but the prosecution requested a 13-year prison sentence from the court due to his denial of the crime and lack of remorse. However, Detective 1 of the Eastern Branch of the Busan District Court in charge of the case increased the actual sentence to 15 years. The crime is serious and the social harm is great, so a heavy sentence is inevitable. At the time of the ruling, the judge's courtroom remarks that made the victim cry received attention. Chief Judge Park Joo-young, who introduced the names of those who collected the deposit from Mr. Choi and the contents of the petition, pointed out the problem of the social system that created good victims, saying, "Please never blame yourself or blame yourself." He said he desperately hopes for their return to normal life. Since the appeals court also found that there was no problem with the first trial's ruling, if Choi does not knock on the door of a higher trial, the sentence could be confirmed as is. However, victims were concerned about the possibility of going to the Supreme Court. Mr. Choi, in his 30s, a victim of a rental fraud who left the court, said, "I did not receive a deposit, and there was no apology. It would be completely unacceptable to appeal after causing such pain." Despite successive convictions, compensation for the damage they are suffering is difficult to resolve. Son Soo-yeon (Daeryun Law Firm), the victim's lawyer, said, "Even though the sentence was maintained, there was no actual damage recovered, so it seems like we need to look into civil affairs, etc." and added, "The victims would normally try to reach a settlement at this level, but they feel devastated by the defendant who has not even said an apology to the point of being shameless." Civil society also agreed with the victim's claim and the court's judgment. An official from the Busan Civil Society Countermeasures Committee to resolve the problem of jeonse fraud and tin rent, which is formed by Busan People's Solidarity for Participatory Democracy and Busan People's Defense, pointed out, "This is a result of reaffirming that jeonse fraud is a serious social crime," and added, "As Mr. Choi spoke of forgiveness and payment for his crimes in his court statement, he must accept the sentence and begin to recover as a victim."

(Shortcut) 2026-05-12T12:40:03.033Z https://www.daeryunlaw.com/en/broadcast/3195 Widmark formula applies the blood alcohol concentration calculation technique at the time of drunk driving. It is not possible to determine whether the blood alcohol concentration exceeds the punishment standard at the time of actual drunk driving. As a result, the blood alcohol concentration rises at the time of arrest... Emphasized that it was probably lower at the time of driving. A man in his 40s who had a history of being punished for drunk driving drove drunk again, but was acquitted by applying the Widmark formula, which back-estimates the blood alcohol concentration at the time. On the 12th, the Chungju branch of the Cheongju District Court found Mr. A (42), who had been put on trial on charges of violating the Road Traffic Act (drunk driving), not guilty. Mr. A had previously been drinking accompaniment while on a trip with his family in January. After drinking, he got behind the wheel and was caught by a police officer conducting a drunken driving control at the scene. At the time of arrest, Mr. A was found to have had a blood alcohol concentration of 0.030%, which was at the level of a suspended license. It was confirmed that Mr. A had a history of being punished for similar crimes. Under the current law, if a fine or more is imposed due to drunk driving, the punishment is aggravated. At the trial, Mr. A's legal representative, Daeryun Law Firm (Limited), argued that it could not be concluded that the drunk driving punishment standard (0.03%) was exceeded by applying the Widmark formula, which reversely estimates the blood alcohol concentration at the time of drunk driving. It is presumed that the blood alcohol concentration was lower than the measured value at the time of measurement and was reached at the time of actual driving. The court said. Regarding the reason for the not guilty verdict, he explained, "When applying the Widmark formula, which is a scientifically proven fact, the defendant has a blood alcohol concentration of 0.03%, which is the punishment standard for drunk driving prescribed by Article 148-2, Paragraph 3, Item 3 and Article 44, Paragraph 1 of the Road Traffic Act. The indictment in this case corresponds to a time when there is no proof of a crime." Attorney Se-cheol Gil of Daeryun Law Firm (Limited) “The Widmark breathalyzer formula is a technique to calculate the blood alcohol concentration at the time of drunk driving when a lot of time has passed since the drunk driving and the driver has sobered up or is below the limit,” he explained. “The drunken state at the time is calculated by considering the driver’s weight, gender, type of alcohol consumed, and amount of alcohol consumed.” He continued, “Because the alcohol breakdown value per hour varies depending on the individual, if you are somewhat unfairly caught for drunk driving, you can use this method to measure your blood alcohol concentration.” “It must be proven that the blood alcohol concentration was rising,” he said. “This case can also be said to be an example of using the Widmark formula to back-estimate the blood alcohol concentration and prove that it did not reach the punishment standard of 0.03% at the time of driving.” [View full article] - Not guilty on second drunk driving charge?... ‘Failure to meet punishment standards’ (Shortcut) 2026-05-12T10:07:53.512Z https://www.daeryunlaw.com/en/broadcast/3190 On July 19th, the Virtual Asset User Protection Act finally goes into effect. Although Korea has an active virtual asset market, it has been difficult to secure the stability of the virtual asset market due to a lack of clear guidelines or regulations. According to the '2023 Virtual Asset Profit Report by Country' published by Chainalysis (Chain Analysis, a blockchain data analysis company), Korea's virtual asset investment profit is said to be 8th in the world, but unlike other advanced countries such as Singapore and Japan, the laws and systems regarding virtual assets are still insufficient. The Virtual Asset User Protection Act establishes the government's authority over virtual asset users and imposes an obligation to protect the assets of virtual asset users. It was enacted to protect rights and interests and establish a transparent and sound trading order in the virtual asset market. Since the legal nature of virtual assets has not been established in Korea, even if unfair trading or unfair speculation of virtual assets occurred, existing laws such as the Capital Markets Act, which regulates securities, were applied by analogy, resulting in difficulties. Once the Virtual Asset User Protection Act is implemented, many parts of the gray area of virtual assets will be defined. The Virtual Asset User Protection Act imposes on virtual asset business operators an obligation to protect virtual asset users' deposits and separate storage of users' virtual assets (so-called cold wallet storage obligations), and provides for punishment of acts of using undisclosed important information and unfair price manipulation. In particular, the obligation to separately store virtual assets was imposed to prevent damage from hacking. Hacking of coins occurs frequently, and once hacking occurs, it is not easy to find the hacker and recover the damaged assets. Not only is it technically difficult to track, but hackers are mainly based overseas, so it is not easy to receive international cooperation. Therefore, it would be best to prevent hacking of virtual assets at present. The use of undisclosed important information and unfair price manipulation are equally prohibited under the Capital Markets Act for securities. However, to date, there has been no conclusion as to whether virtual assets will be considered securities, making it difficult to immediately apply the Capital Markets Act in relation to virtual assets. In many cases, people were indicted, but were found not guilty because there was no provision for punishment. Now, a way has been established to sanction unfair trading practices related to virtual assets by explicitly prohibiting them in the Virtual Asset User Protection Act. As a result, the protection of virtual asset users is expected to be strengthened and the virtual asset market can be stabilized. Of course, this is natural, but even if the Virtual Asset User Protection Act is implemented, there are still legal challenges to be solved. For example, there is the ICO discussion. ICO (Initial Coin Offering) is a type of crowdfunding that raises initial development funds from an unspecified number of investors to create a new cryptocurrency. In September 2017, Korea completely banned ICOs, judging them to be speculation. For reference, the United States, Singapore, and Japan regulate it but allow it, while China, like Korea, completely prohibits it. ICOs are not covered by the Virtual Asset User Protection Act that will soon be implemented. However, as IPOs (Initial Public Offerings) are taking place in the stock market, Bitcoin has been approved as an ETF, and has been adopted as legal tender in El Salvador, virtual assets are establishing themselves as currencies around the world. Therefore, it is impossible for Korea, a ‘coin powerhouse’, to completely ban ICOs forever. We hope that the ICO system will soon be stably established and contribute to the development of a healthy virtual asset market. Another example is the scope of application of the law. The Virtual Asset User Protection Act stipulates that it applies even when an act is performed overseas and the effect is domestic. Although virtual asset operators have businesses overseas, such as Singapore, they often receive investment from domestic investment companies. So, even if it is an overseas company, if it receives investment from a domestic investment company, does that mean that the effect is felt domestically? In this regard, it seems necessary to review various cases and establish universal legal principles. Meanwhile, it is said that 48.2 billion yen (approximately 420 billion won) worth of Bitcoin was abnormally leaked from Japan in June. It has been confirmed that some Bitcoins managed in offline storage (cold wallet) were hacked while being transferred to online storage (hot wallet). From the user's perspective, even if they are protected by law, they still cannot be careless about damage to virtual assets. We do not know what direction virtual assets and their regulations will take in the future. There are still a number of legal issues that need to be explored regarding virtual assets. We hope that the implementation of the Virtual Asset User Protection Act will be the first step toward a mature virtual asset market.

BTS fan ‘Army’ expressed her displeasure, saying it was ‘obvious sexual harassment’. Meanwhile, one fan reported those who committed the act. The accident occurred the day before, on the 13th, at the '2024 FESTA' held in the Songpa-gu area of ​​Seoul. Jin personally proposed an event with fans in order to meet closer with the fans who waited for him and supported him until the end before being discharged, and attended the event on this day. The problem occurred during the first part of the fan event, ‘Jean’s Greetings.’ Jin met and hugged 1,000 fans that day. Not only female but also male fans participated in this event, creating a warm atmosphere. Although the hug ended in a short moment due to the large crowd of 1,000 people, the fans looked happy. On the other hand, the excessive behavior of some fans was pointed out as a problem. Some female fans unexpectedly attempted to kiss Jin on the cheek and lips. In response to their sudden actions, Jin turned his face and showed actions to avoid them. This is because it can easily lead to misunderstandings. Jin also showed an unpleasant look, but soon regained his bright smile. After the event, Jin said, "It was more fun and exciting than I thought. If I had more than one body, I would have been able to give hugs to more people a day, but I'm a little disappointed that I could only give hugs to 1,000 people today. Next time, if I can do it at least once before I die, I'll try." However, ARMYs expressed their discomfort, calling it “sexual harassment,” and sued the fans in question. On the 14th, an informant told Segye Ilbo, “During a ‘hug event’, some fans ‘kissed’ us, sparking controversy over sexual harassment.” He added, “On this day (the 14th), we reported the fans in question to Kookmin Newspaper for violating the ‘Sexual Violence Punishment Act.’” He then claimed, “Some fans of BTS took advantage of a situation where explicit and active resistance or avoidance was difficult due to the nature of the ‘hug club’ event, causing sexual shame or disgust and committing ‘sexual harassment’ against good sexual morals, infringing on the victim’s right to sexual self-determination.” He added, “We strongly urge the police to immediately investigate and severely punish the fans on charges of violating Article 11 of the Sexual Violence Punishment Act, ‘Indecent Conduct in Public Places.’” Meanwhile, regarding this case, lawyer Choi Hyun-deok of Daeryun Law Firm explained in a phone call with Segye Ilbo that day, “It appears that the two criminal law requirements for indecent assault and forcible indecent assault in a crowded public place are met.” He advised, “An action taken by a fan (a surprise kiss) can also be considered ‘surprise molestation.’ In other words, a surprise kiss is an exercise of physical force on the body, which constitutes an assault crime and an act of molestation at the same time, so it is a surprise molestation and constitutes forcible molestation under criminal law.” Attorney Choi said, “Considering the nature of the assault, there is a possibility that the prosecution will indict the person for forcible indecent assault, which carries a higher penalty than indecent assault in a crowded public place.” He added, “Indecent assault in a public place is punishable by up to 3 years in prison and a fine of up to 30 million won, and forcible indecent assault is punishable by up to 10 years in prison and a fine up to 15 million won.” [View full article] - BTS Jin suffered sexual harassment at a fan event… Angry fan accuses ‘sexual violence punishment law’ 2026-05-13T14:49:09.171Z https://www.daeryunlaw.com/en/broadcast/3182 Even after 10 years of psychiatric treatment, the court said, “The sentence cannot be commuted due to mental illness.” There are suspects who claim a reduction of their sentences on the grounds that they suffer from mental illness after committing violent crimes. However, in recent courts, arguments for a reduced sentence based on so-called ‘mental and physical weakness’ have not been working well. On the 12th, the 11th Criminal Division of the Western District Court (Chief Judge Seong-joong Bae) sentenced Mr. Choi (45), a Korean American national, who was indicted on charges of special injury, to three years in prison. In January of this year, he was handed over to trial on charges of swinging a knife at a man in his 20s whom he saw for the first time in an alley in Seogyo-dong, Mapo-gu, Seoul, causing injuries that required three years of treatment. In this trial, which was held as a public participation trial, seven lay jurors in court presented their guilty and not guilty verdicts and sentencing opinions for Mr. Choi. During the trial, it was revealed that the defendant, Mr. Choi, had been treated for schizophrenia 114 times since 2015. In his final argument, Mr. Choi's lawyer appealed for a reduced sentence, saying, "He has been treated for a long history of mental illness, and because he is a foreigner, there are aspects of him that have been neglected." However, all seven jurors found him guilty. Of these, six were recommended to be sentenced to three years in prison, and one was recommended to be sentenced to five years in prison. The court also said, “The defendant was treated for a long period of time due to mental illness, and it appears that the illness influenced the crime,” but ruled, “The crime is serious because he prepared a weapon in a place where many people go and inflicted injuries on an unknown victim.” Previously, a man in his 80s was stabbed with a weapon on the streets of Dongdaemun-gu, Seoul in 2022. It was revealed that he had a mental illness called ‘paranoia,’ but the court did not recognize the mental and physical impairment, saying, ‘It is judged that he has the ability to discern.’ Cho Seong-geun, an attorney at the Daeryun Law Firm, said, “The negative view toward reducing the sentence for mental and physical impairment is becoming stronger, and there is a trend not to recognize claims of mental and physical impairment for violent crimes.” [View full article] - “I am reducing your sentence because you are weak-minded”… This passionate ruling doesn't work anymore (Shortcut) 2026-05-13T12:55:16.094Z https://www.daeryunlaw.com/en/broadcast/3179 Director Dong-woon Oh held his first personnel committee meeting after taking office on the 13th and discussed the overall operation of the organization, including the appointment of new prosecutors. The Chief Prosecutor and Deputy Prosecutor will be recruited simultaneously. The appointment notice will be posted on the 19th. Newly appointed Director of the High-ranking Public Officials Crime Investigation Service (Corruption Investigation Office) Oh Dong-woon held his first personnel committee meeting (Personnel Committee) after taking office on the 13th and discussed the overall operation of the organization, including the appointment of new prosecutors. The Corruption Investigation Office carried out work for about an hour starting around 10:30 a.m. on this day. It was announced that the current status and future prosecutor appointment plans were reported to the Personnel Committee and the opinions of members were collected. The Personnel Committee is an organization that deliberates and decides on overall personnel matters excluding the Director and Deputy Director of the Corruption Investigation Office. A total of seven people are expected to participate, including the director and deputy director, two members recommended by the ruling party, two members recommended by the opposition party, and one member recommended by the head of the Corruption Investigation Office. However, due to the vacancy in the Deputy Director, this personnel committee meeting was held with 6 people participating instead of the 7 stipulated by the Corruption and Corruption Corruption Investigation Act. On this day, the personnel committee was attended by Director Oh, as well as Lee Seon-bong, an attorney at the Huawoo Law Firm, Jeon Kang-jin, an attorney at the Jipyong Law Firm, who were recommended by the ruling party, Jwa Se-jun, an attorney at the Hanmac Law Firm, and Lee Chang-min, an attorney at the Changdeok Law Firm, who were recommended by the opposition party, and Lee Jun-hee, an attorney at the Daeryun Law Firm, who were recommended by the Director. Attending the Personnel Committee. It is said that the committee members particularly sympathized with the urgency of hiring new prosecutors at the Corruption Investigation Office. As of this month, there are 19 prosecutors working at the Corruption Investigation Office, which does not meet the quota of 25 prosecutors, including the director and deputy director. At the end of last month, the resignation submitted by former 1st Investigation Department Director Kim Seon-gyu, who had been acting as deputy director, was accepted, and Chief Prosecutor Kim Myeong-seok, a human rights investigation policy officer, also expressed his resignation. If Chief Prosecutor Kim's resignation letter is processed, he will work at the Corruption Investigation Office. The number of prosecutors will be reduced to 18. Two of the six positions of chief prosecutor will be vacant. A lawyer who attended the personnel committee meeting that day told Newsis, "There are about six vacancies for prosecutors in the Corruption Investigation Office, and I heard an explanation as to what procedure will be used to fill them." He added, "It is highly likely that the chief prosecutor and rank-and-file prosecutors will be filled at the same time." It is reported that the Corruption Investigation Office will post an appointment notice on the 19th. Thereafter, we plan to hold a second personnel committee meeting in August to discuss the reappointment of prosecutors. Director Oh said, "We want to make the Corruption Investigation Office a strong and stable organization," and added, "I hope that the personnel committee will meet the public's expectations and aspirations and produce practical results based on the spirit of agreement, which is the purpose of forming the personnel committee under the Corruption Investigation Agency Act."

Argument for the introduction of a ‘daily fine system’ to increase the effectiveness of fines. “This is completely wrong.” This is what a defendant said when he was given leniency with a fine by the court during a recent criminal trial at the Busan Court Complex. He then said, "When I consulted with my lawyer, I confessed because I was told that I would be sentenced to probation if I admitted to the crime, so I confessed," and urged the court to sentence him to probation, which is a more severe sentence than a fine. A suspended sentence is a more severe punishment than a fine, so the court, who was clearly embarrassed, sent the defendant back with the words, "Appeal and get a new judgment." The reason the defendant asks for a suspended sentence is interpreted to be because suspended sentences do not cause immediately visible damage or financial burden. When a fine is sentenced, as a rule, the entire amount must be paid in a lump sum within 30 days from the date of decision, and financial expenses are incurred immediately. On the other hand, with probation, there is no financial loss and you do not have to spend time in prison, so you are free. Attorney Kim Dong-jin of Daeryun Law Firm (Limited) said, “A fine requires payment immediately, but (defendants) think that probation is a risk that transfers the prison sentence to the future and disappears.” He added, “Thoughts about probation are different depending on each person’s economic situation or values. Occupations in large companies or public institutions have the continuity of their jobs if they receive probation according to regulations. On the other hand, for self-employed people who are not affiliated with others, they much prefer suspended sentences rather than fines,” he explained. In Korea, the punishments are severe in the order of ▲ fines ▲ suspension of qualifications ▲ loss of qualifications ▲ fixed-term imprisonment ▲ fixed-term imprisonment ▲ life imprisonment ▲ life imprisonment ▲ death penalty. If a fine of 5 million won or less is imposed, probation may be imposed for not less than 1 year but not more than 5 years. Probation is a system that postpones the execution of a guilty sentence for a certain period of time rather than executing it immediately. It is a much heavier punishment than a fine under criminal law. Also, if you receive a suspended sentence, a criminal record is left behind, as in the expression 'a red line is drawn'. If you commit a crime during the period of probation and appear in court again, you must serve the newly sentenced sentence along with the previously suspended sentence. However, if you are in a difficult economic situation, or if you are in a suspended sentence, a red line is left behind. People who are not greatly affected by probation prefer it because there is no immediate harm even if they receive probation. In response to this irrationality, experts suggest the introduction of a 'daily fine system' in which fines are set according to the financial circumstances of the defendants in order to increase the effectiveness of fines. Korea adopts a 'total fine system'. This system is a fine system that imposes a certain amount of money on the defendant within the scope of the statutory penalty. The daily fine system is a system that sets a fine based on a criminal's daily income. The purpose is to impose fines in proportion to the ability to bear the financial burden. Dr. Gyeong-gyu Park of the Korea Institute of Criminology and Legal Policy explained, "Legal experts view probation as a much heavier punishment than fines. However, defendants who are struggling financially feel that fines are more reluctant than probation because they affect their livelihoods, such as having to pay immediately." He continued, "Fines were created to punish minor crimes, such as livelihood-related crimes, not serious crimes that limit freedom." “Most crimes are subject to fines, but our country uses a total fine system, so we do not look deeply into the financial circumstances of the defendant,” he said. “There are ongoing calls to introduce a daily fine system, which some European countries, such as Germany, are adopting as a way to increase the effectiveness of fines.” [View full article] - Defendant who requested a heavier probation than a fine... why?

According to the Daejeon Metropolitan Office of Education on the 11th, an inappropriate meeting between male teacher A (in his 40s) and Ms. B occurred at a high school in Daejeon. While working as a physical education teacher at the school, Mr. A crossed a line that should not be crossed with his student, Ms. B. They continued dating until recently and became known after Ms. B revealed the truth. Ms. B revealed this fact during a consultation with the school counselor, and the school, which belatedly discovered the problem, reported it to the city office of education and then to the police. Mr. A left school because of this. It is reported that Ms. B is currently experiencing extreme psychological anxiety. The city office of education and the school plan to connect the student with an external counseling and healing agency. The city’s Office of Education said, “Student protection is our top priority,” and “We plan to take strict action against the teacher as soon as an accurate investigation is conducted.” In this case, charges of violating the Child Welfare Act and the Child Abuse Punishment Act may be imposed, and considering the fact that he had a special status as a teacher, there is a possibility that an additional charge of adultery with a minor may be applied. On the other hand, it is said that their relationship was not forced. In particular, this is a situation where Ms. B does not want Mr. A to be punished. The city’s Office of Education said, “(Even if Ms. B does not want to be punished), we plan to take strict action because the teacher had an inappropriate relationship with a minor student.” Regarding this incident, a lawyer who spoke to Segye Ilbo on the same day said, “If we had met Ms. B after she graduated from school, there would have been no problem,” but pointed out, “Considering that Ms. B is a minor and that the incident occurred at school, it is problematic.” Meanwhile, according to Daeryun Law Firm (Yuhan), in this case, whether or not to apply the statutory rape of a minor charge will likely be decided depending on the age of Ms. B. Ms. B’s exact age was not disclosed. The crime of involuntary rape of a minor is punishable at the same level as the crime of rape or forcible molestation committed using assault or intimidation when a person over 19 years of age commits adultery or indecent assault with a minor under 16 years of age, or when a person under 19 years of age commits adultery or indecent assault with a minor under 13 years of age. Even if sexual contact occurred with a minor under the age of 16 or 13 under the age of 16, the person is subject to punishment if the above age conditions are met, and the statute of limitations does not apply, so the punishment is more severe than that for general sex crimes (Article 305 of the Criminal Act and Article 20 (3) of the Act on the Protection of Children and Adolescents from Sexual Offenses). This crime is committed even when there is the consent of the victim. [View full article] - Is the relationship between a teacher and a high school girl who said there was no coercion, love?

It can be understood as an act of erasing the memories and time spent on wedding photography and photos that were thought to be beautifully taken through social regulations. But this divorce is not as easy as it sounds. Moreover, if it is not the divorce, but the marriage itself after the divorce is invalidated. ‘Marriage annulment’ after divorce, which seemed difficult, will now become possible. On the 23rd of last month, the Supreme Court unanimously ruled that a marriage can be annulled even if the couple has already divorced. It is natural that attention is focused on this issue as the Supreme Court precedent, which ruled that there is no benefit in seeking annulment of marriage if the couple has already divorced, has changed for the first time in 40 years. Nullification of marriage does not take effect from the beginning, and divorce takes effect after divorce, so legal relationships that arose on the premise of marriage before divorce are still valid. Therefore, since the legal effects of marriage invalidity and divorce are different, there may be a benefit in confirming that the marriage relationship is invalid even after divorce. If the marriage is invalid, the provisions prohibiting marriage between relatives under the Civil Act and the provisions on rites of kinship under the Criminal Act do not apply, and joint liability for everyday household debts cannot be held under the Civil Act. This ruling affirms the benefit of confirmation as a means of resolving comprehensive legal disputes in one go for requests for confirmation of the invalidity of marriage after divorce, and provides a means to correct the family relationship register where invalid marriage history is incorrectly recorded, so disputes related to legal life can be practically resolved. It can be said to be a very meaningful ruling that expands the method of redress of the parties' rights so that the parties can have their rights resolved. If a marriage is annulled, the status as an 'unmarried person' can be legally restored. Since there has never been a marriage in the first place, even the legal relationship is extinguished, making one more free from various legal disputes. Additionally, you can receive benefits such as various welfare and support projects that you could not enjoy because of your marriage record. It is now possible to guarantee social activities and rights not only to single dads and single mothers, but also to those who have been married and divorced through illegal means. However, under the judgment that divorce and annulment have different legal effects, it has been concluded that there is a legal interest in seeking confirmation of the annulment of marriage through this ruling. It is important to keep in mind that not only are the reasons for annulment a marriage very limited, but this case does not broadly recognize the reasons. As an example, a famous celebrity, Mr. A, recently filed a lawsuit for annulment of marriage after divorcing Mr. B. The main reason is that the other party, Mr. B, hid the existence of the woman with whom he was in a common-law relationship, but Mr. A is claiming that 'the marriage is annulled because he got married under deception.' Given the existing precedent, the question arises as to whether there is any benefit to be gained by annulling the marriage since the divorce process has been completed. However, since this ruling allows the court to determine that 'there may be a legal benefit,' we have no choice but to pay attention to whether Mr. A's annulment lawsuit can be won. In addition to the fact that a lawsuit claiming a marriage annulment can only proceed under special circumstances, it must be proven that a legal benefit can arise. Since you need to look into the details and each case, you must appoint a professional attorney and provide sufficient preparation and consultation. A specific case has emerged showing that you can file a lawsuit for annulment of marriage even after divorce. An opportunity has come to piece together the memories that were tangled, fragmented, and crooked like a skein of thread. It won't be long before I can courageously look at the wedding photos and camera shutters that I took with a smile on my face again.

There is lawyer Hyun Byeong-hee (25th class of the Judicial Research and Training Institute). Attorney Won, who served as managing director and head of the legal office at POSCO Holdings (formerly POSCO) and managing director of the legal office at POSCO Future M (formerly POSCO Chemical), has experience handling numerous corporate lawsuits while working in the legal office.

Engaged in management and supervision activities, including legal advice. Specifically, he is an expert in the field of corporate law, including prior monitoring at all stages from contract signing with partner companies to completion of implementation, prior review of violations of local laws related to overseas investments, and post-action response. In particular, Attorney Won was also in charge of compliance support and fair trade compliance manager. He reviewed overall corporate legal issues at POSCO Holdings and other companies, and was in charge of overall management of the Fair Trade Compliance Program (CP) as a Fair Trade Compliance Manager. The Compliance Program managed by the Fair Trade Commission gives good grades to companies that are well-run, and it is a system operated by many companies as it provides benefits such as exemption from the Fair Trade Commission's ex officio investigation depending on the grade. Hyun, who served as a member of the Fair Trade Dispute Mediation Council of the Fair Trade Commission for two consecutive terms, is working on fair trade issues. He has first-hand experience and a reputation as a fair trade expert. As a lawyer specializing in securities and finance, he also successfully led lawsuits confirming the right to claim receipts and deposits between companies. The group has experts in various fields, including corporate lawyers, fair trade lawyers from courts and prosecutors, and financial lawyers, to respond to disputes related to fair trade between companies. As a former chief prosecutor, lawyer Kim In-won (21st class of the Judicial Research and Training Institute), who was active in the financial investigation department of the prosecution for a long time, is handling criminal cases related to fair trade. He plans to supervise.

In particular, it also operates a fair trade detective team in preparation for fair trade prosecution investigations at all stages of the Fair Trade Commission. The Fair Trade Commission recently imposed a fine of tens of billions of won in a bid rigging case related to semiconductor manufacturing. As it is expected that stricter sanctions will be imposed on abuse of power and illegal activities, such as launching an investigation into unfair practices in the medical device distribution market and emphasizing the need to introduce the Platform Fair Competition Promotion Act (Platform Act), Daeryun is also accelerating preparations for this. We plan to carry out preventive activities before being sanctioned for industrial-related illegal acts, provide continuous advice on legal issues, and operate a response system to prepare post-action measures. Won Hyeong-il The chief general attorney explained, "A lawyer with a high understanding of the company can effectively respond to fair trade issues," and "As we are expanding the corporate legal group, we plan to pay more attention to recruiting talent as the head of the corporate legal group."

In Daejeon, where I work, the number of rental fraud cases has increased rapidly since last year, and if you look at the list of ongoing cases, you can see that various lawsuits are being filed directly against famous rental fraud perpetrators in Daejeon, as well as various landlords, real estate agents, and the Korea Association of Real Estate Agents. Of course, there is a need for structured and continuous social discussion on institutional solution methodologies to prevent jeonse fraud, but for individuals living in an extremely specific reality, a "practical guide to preventing jeonse fraud damage" seems to be urgently needed. The following is a guide to preventing damage that is useful right now, organized by transaction stage, focusing on the regrettable aspects of proceeding with lawsuits and providing contract advice. First of all, if it is 'before the transaction stage', it is essential to "confirm the real estate registration certificate." It is important to verify the identity of the lessor through this. In particular, if the object is jointly owned, explicit confirmation of the intention of all co-owners is required. If one of the co-owners appears, or if all co-owners do not appear, it is necessary to check whether the agency contract has been properly concluded (the power of attorney and seal certificate must be checked for forgery, and if possible, it is recommended that the lease contract be concluded directly with the lessor at the real estate agent's office). In addition, you must first check the existence of a senior deposit bond (be sure to check the moving-in unit viewing history), the establishment of a lien, etc., and calculate whether you can fully recover your precious deposit when the real estate object in question ultimately reaches the auction stage. In addition, it is necessary to check whether the lessor is delinquent on taxes through a licensed real estate agent and view the details of unpaid national and local taxes from the lessor on the date of concluding the lease contract. Next, if you have entered the 'transaction stage such as writing a contract', it is important to prepare various 'safety devices' by including various special provisions in the contract contents, which include ① a special agreement that prohibits the transfer of the real estate object in question after the date of payment of the balance until opposition occurs due to a move-in report and a confirmed date (if this is violated, the lessee's right to terminate the lease contract is reserved and the amount of compensation for damages is scheduled); ② a temporary restriction on changes in ownership as above In addition, there is a special contract that prohibits the creation of any security rights such as a mortgage (to secure the right to priority payment), ③ a special contract that asks the lessor who is at fault if it is impossible to borrow the leased money due to a defect in the subject matter, ④ if there is a tax arrears, it must be repaid in full before the balance due date, and if this is violated, the lease contract is invalidated and the deposit doubled is compensated. Lastly, if you have ‘finished the transaction stage’, you must file a move-in report immediately on the day of signing the lease contract and receive a confirmation date. Also, if possible, please sign a lease guarantee insurance contract through a bank. Still, if you have doubts about something, we recommend that you actively seek advice from a lawyer. If you do not attach various safety measures while handing out the deposit, which accounts for a huge portion of your assets, it is no different from entrusting your assets to someone you have never met, relying on their favor.

According to the legal community on the 3rd, Beom-yong Lee, the 4th detective of the Eastern Branch of the Busan District Court The judge sentenced Mr. A (30s), who was indicted on charges of violating the Public Sanitation Management Act, to one year in prison and two years of probation, and ordered him to perform 80 hours of community service. According to the criminal facts acknowledged by the first trial, Mr. A is accused of operating 11 officetels in Suyeong-gu, Busan from August 2019 to December 2022 as an illegal shared lodging business without reporting them to the mayor and district head. Mr. A It is known that he earned profits worth 690 million won by operating an illegal shared lodging business for about four years. The lodging business operated by Mr. A is located right in front of Gwangalli Beach, and is said to have received reservations from guests through an internet lodging sharing site. The court said, "Mr. A committed this crime again even though he has a history of being criminally punished for the same crime (a fine of 1 million won)," and added, "Mr. A ran a lodging business. “The crime cannot be considered light as the period is about 4 years and total sales exceed 690 million won,” the ruling said. If you operate an unreported illegal shared lodging business using an officetel, apartment, or house, you are subject to up to 2 years in prison or a fine of up to 20 million won under the ‘Public Hygiene Management Act.’ There are no separate regulations to punish guests who use it, but they can be exposed to fire, safety accidents, and various crimes. There is a risk. Attorney Lee Seung-ho of Daeryun Law Firm (Limited) explained, "The Public Health Act and the Tourism Promotion Act only subject to punishment those who operate unreported illegal shared lodging businesses, and there are no provisions in the current law to punish users." He continued, "However, illegal shared lodging businesses are often not properly equipped with fire safety facilities, etc., so there is a risk of being exposed to safety accidents and sanitary problems may arise." “If you suffer damage due to a safety accident, it may be difficult to receive appropriate compensation or take responsibility,” he said, urging caution.

Collection is difficult | "It is a problem even if the daughter benefits from the slush funds given by Roh Tae-woo. Where is justice in this?" In the appeal court ruling on the divorce suit between SK Group Chairman Chey Tae-won and Noh So-young, director of Art Center Nabi, former President Roh Tae-woo's slush fund As it became known that existence played a decisive role, controversy arose as to whether this ruling was in line with social justice. Considering the fact that former President Roh was sentenced to 17 years in prison for bribery, there is a high possibility that the slush fund was also 'dark money', and public opinion is questioning whether it is appropriate to recognize the money as a 'dowry' for a daughter and to pass on the fruits of the expansion of large corporations to children. However, although this point itself may be possible, there is little possibility of legally returning it to the state. Considering the nature of family lawsuits that do not ask about the source of funds and the fact that the case itself is very old, the general opinion in the legal community is that realistically there is no way to collect money. According to the Hankook Ilbo report on the 2nd, the Seoul High Court's Family Affairs Division 2 (Chief Kim Si-cheol) took into account the illegality of the funds that former President Roh provided to former Chairman Choi Jong-hyun, Choi's father, in 1991, but considered this as a key element in property division. The court also stated, "If the relevant circumstances had been revealed (early), the government may have filed a collection suit against former Chairman Choi." Although the court's logic for including money that was likely to be accumulated through illegal means in the property division is not understandable, the legal community explains that this was due to the characteristics of family trials. For the purpose of divorce litigation, where 'dissolution of the relationship' is an issue, only the contributions of both parties are considered in the division of property, and even if some of the property is suspected to be the proceeds of crime, the court cannot be held criminally liable ex officio. Attorney Lee Hyeon-gon (Saeol Law Firm), who served as a family court judge for a long time, said, "In dividing property, the principle is not to ask about the illegality of the formation process," and "The moment this is taken into consideration, the question arises, 'Is it okay for one party to monopolize illegal assets?' “It is,” he pointed out. Attorney Kim Shin-hye (Hankyoung Law Firm), who specializes in divorce, added, “Collection ordering the payment of criminal proceeds is also a type of punishment, so it is a part that must go through a separate criminal trial (from the family trial).” Ultimately, the conclusion is that deciding whether to recover slush funds is outside the scope of divorce litigation. So, would it be possible to proceed with a new lawsuit against former President Roh's family to collect the proceeds of crime? The problem here is that former President Roh died and the right to prosecution disappeared. Even in the 1990s, the existence of this slush fund was never revealed even in a large-scale investigation to find financial links between former President Roh and Sunkyung Group (formerly SK). In particular, former President Roh relieved himself of judicial responsibility by fully paying the 262.8 billion won fine confirmed by the Supreme Court during his lifetime. It is difficult to hold SK responsible. The law related to concealment of criminal proceeds was enacted in 2001 after the incident. This is why the appellate court in this divorce suit said, “At least as of 1991, even if former Chairman Choi received financial support from former President Roh, it cannot be said to be illegal.” A lawyer who used to be a chief judge explained, “The charges cannot be applied because of the statute of limitations as well as retroactive application issues.” There are some who suggest enacting a special law as a solution, but skeptical views are still dominant. Attorney Kim Gook-il (Daeryun Law Firm), a former prosecutor, mentioned the possibility of unconstitutionality by saying, "Even if a special law is created, the principle is that criminal punishment is exclusive to 'people', so it is difficult to hold the parties responsible since they are dead." However, it is difficult to hold them legally responsible, but in the eyes of public opinion, it seems difficult to avoid the self-deprecating assessment that 'successful collusion between politics and business' has led to 'successful concealment of slush funds.' Former President Roh's wife, Kim Ok-sook, entrusted a large sum of money to a relative or acquaintance and separately recorded the amount (Kim Ok-sook memo). Of these Kim Ok-sook memos, the only thing that was not known to the world until the end was the 30 billion won provided to her in-laws (Seon Kyeong). This is a situation that shows that former President Roh and his wife may have kept quiet for the sake of their daughter even though they were being fined hundreds of billions of won. A chief judge in the metropolitan area commented on this, saying, “The daughter benefited from the fact that both families hid its existence for 30 years.” [View full article] - The 30 billion saved by Roh Tae-woo's 'hold on' has been reduced to 1.3 trillion... Can that money be recovered? (Shortcut) 2026-05-14T06:39:17.210Z https://www.daeryunlaw.com/en/broadcast/3149 Three years ago, I taught a so-called 5th grade student who was taking the bar exam for the 5th time for about 3 months. As his bar exam experience shows, the above examinee studied a lot to the point where there were no academy lectures he didn't take or textbooks he didn't read, but at the time, he was so anxious that he couldn't even sleep properly. There was so much to see, but I was worried that I wouldn't be able to digest it all by the day of the test. In addition to basic books, optional, case, and record-type problem sets and commentary books, and the latest case studies, the number of special lecture materials distributed by schools and academies is truly enormous. At the time, I thought the test taker above was my younger brother, and gave my own tip that if you do this, you will definitely pass. And he continued to reassure me that I would pass until the day of the exam. I meant it. What was the result? The test taker above, who had not completed the military service at the time, easily passed the bar exam he took for the last time in his life, and is currently a military judge captain and is scheduled to be discharged next summer. Now that the 13th bar exam is just around the corner, I would like to introduce what I think is the ‘most efficient finishing tip’ for juniors who, like the test taker above, are barely getting through each day with anxiety. I hope this will be of great reference to you. First, let’s drastically reduce the amount of textbooks to read. In a state of extreme anxiety like now, you will only be able to see the content if you watch it with the confidence that you will pass the minimum amount of content. So what should I watch during the remaining time? For all public, criminal, and civil laws, prioritize in the following order: ① the latest three-year precedents, ② the Law Society mock exam in October, August, and June of this year, and ③ the 11th bar exam. And once you have digested all of the above, the scope gradually expands in reverse chronological order. That is, ④Law Association mock exams held in October, August, and June of last year, and ⑤the 10th bar exam will continue until the day of the exam. If there are any subnotes that you have carefully organized, add only those. In particular, if any precedents from the past three years were included in the case and record format during the Law Society's mock exams held in October, August, and June of this year, check the latest precedent collection once more and become fully familiar with it. You will find yourself smiling in the actual exam room. And from now on, I will study only through input. In other words, it is enough to do the output (=answer writing practice) once or twice for the subject in which you are weakest in order to relieve anxiety. There is absolutely no need to write answers on time just because you studied the case and record format of the Law Society mock test and the bar exam above. To be honest, you probably won't have time for that, and it's important to master at least one more content from the above textbook by the day of the exam. Therefore, after reading the problem, you can organize the issues and the table of contents in your head or in a notebook and then immediately read the explanation. In other words, study as if the above questions and explanations are a basic book, and there is absolutely no need to struggle to solve the questions. If you read this far, don't these questions come to mind? ‘What should I do if the question is asked outside of the above range?’ Three years ago, a test taker also asked me the same question, and my answer at that time was as follows: “Even though you have completely digested 3 years of the latest precedents, the latest 1 year law association mock exam, and the most recent 1 year bar exam questions, if a question is asked outside the range, you will not be able to solve that problem in the same way even if you look at the basic book from now on, and the same will probably be true for other test takers. You are the most efficient. Be confident that you are studying.” I sincerely hope that all of the students reading this for the 13th bar exam pass and that we can meet in the field next year. I hope you persevere until the end. [View full article] - [Column] Tips for completing the bar exam for test takers who can't sleep due to anxiety 2026-05-04T11:26:49.686Z https://www.daeryunlaw.com/en/broadcast/3148 As someone who has experience reviewing and commenting on over 50 self-introductions at a law school admissions academy last year, and based on advice I received from my advisor while attending law school, I would like to introduce some tips that will help you write a self-introduction. First, the self-introduction is a key document that evaluates the two factors of a law school applicant: character and intelligence. It is evaluated whether the applicant has the ‘character’ to be able to examine not only himself but also his surroundings, and the ‘intellect’ to have the expertise and ability to provide appropriate legal advice as a lawyer. To put it more directly, it means checking whether you are a selfish person that only you know and whether you have the basic qualifications to pass the bar exam in three years. Therefore, when answering each question in your self-introduction, please first think about which of the two factors above is being evaluated. Second, when writing your motivation for applying, it is a good idea to clearly state why you applied to the law school in question. By emphasizing the strengths of the law school, such as specialized content, recommendations from seniors, excellent faculty, high bar exam passing rate, systematic curriculum, and various scholarship benefits, you can clearly convey the motivation for applying and at the same time appeal to compatibility with the law school. Third, in the shortcomings section, it is a good idea to write down elements that can be interpreted as advantages in other aspects (ex. perfectionism, etc.). Also, be sure to mention that you are clearly aware of these shortcomings and that you will make some efforts now or in the future to improve them. So, if you can convince the evaluator that such shortcomings will not be a problem at all in future law school life and bar exam preparation, it will be a huge success. Fourth, regarding your academic plan after entering law school, above all, make it clear that you will faithfully complete the curriculum provided by the school, and that you will supplement only the shortcomings through online lectures, etc., so that completing the law school curriculum and preparing for the bar exam become one. In fact, after entering law school, there are students who neglect school classes and only listen to online academy lectures to prepare for the bar exam. If you mention the above in your study plan in advance, you will definitely make a good impression. Fifth, the section on subjects completed and grades during undergraduate school is intended to evaluate the intellectual aspect of the applicant in earnest. Here, you can appeal that you have prior experience taking law courses, that you have passed a certification exam that includes law courses, or that your grades in law courses were particularly excellent. However, even if you do not have any law-related history as above, you can honestly describe what you experienced while studying your major subject, for example, if you have improved your grade by retaking a course, why you got a bad grade the first time, what improvements you made that resulted in your grade going up when you retook the course, and how you will apply what you learned in law school. There is no need to focus on studying the law in advance while preparing for the patent attorney, certified labor attorney, or first exam of the public administration exam. Sixth, volunteer activities and non-academic participation activities are evaluated for personality aspects. You must appeal through specific episodes about how you demonstrated and developed cooperation, consideration, and leadership. It is much better to emphasize the impressions and lessons learned from your specific experiences rather than simply listing general details such as having done these activities. Seventh, regarding the formal aspect, even if it was an answer to a single question, it was much better to see it written in a separate table of contents. To the author who has read many self-introductions, in the end, a well-written self-introduction is one that naturally reveals the person's personality, values, and thoughts within the person's specific experiences. Even though we took the same classes and participated in the same club activities, the content and impressions we received were all different. Keep in mind that any experience can be the subject of your self-introduction, and try to include specific episodes rather than general abstractions as much as possible. We support the future of all students preparing to enter law school and wish them successful law school admission.

The exact name of the kindergarten I went to at the time was “Saemaeul Preschool”However, the cost was cheaper than other places due to government subsidies., The only all-day class in the neighborhood(morning 9from o'clock to p.m. 6until o'clock)was operating. My mother at the time ○○life insurance lady(In modern terms, an insurance planner) Because I was working, there was no one to take care of me. 5He took me with him to work until he was three years old.(So, I held my mother’s hand and went around Seoul and Gyeonggi Province to sign up for insurance for my acquaintances.), 6When it became possible to enroll in full-day kindergarten after I turned 12 years old, they enrolled me in it.. morning 8city 30If you take the kindergarten shuttle bus in front of Bungyeong house,, Picking up children around the neighborhood 9Arrived at Sikyung Nursery School, Eat snacks and lunch at the nursery, My routine was to take a nap and play all day, then my mother would pick me up from work in the late afternoon.. There is one memory that comes to mind every Christmas., This is something my mother often tells me she's sorry about to this day.. 12month 23Is it work? 24I think we had a Christmas event at the preschool at the time., It was one of those days when children put on plays, gave speeches, and played games with their parents.. On this day, as usual, my mother went to work and arrived at the nursery late in the event., The other children's mothers were all holding wrapped gifts.. So the mother said to the other child's mother “oh my, I guess they gave gifts to children at the nursery like this.? Thank you so much” I said, The child's mother was surprised when she was asked the question. “ah, You haven’t heard from Youngmin’s mother.? I asked the mothers to prepare gifts to give to the children today.. I guess you were busy with work and didn't receive the message.”He answered,. in other words, When parents bring wrapped gifts for their children,, At the end of the event, a shuttle driver dressed as Santa was handing out gifts., At that time, there were no online Kids Note notifications like there are these days., The only thing that was done was to pass on awareness messages between mothers or write them down on paper notices at the kindergarten., My mother had missed it.. So my mother rushed to the kindergarten building. 1I went to the supermarket on the floor and bought as many bags of snacks as I could get my hands on, then packaged them at the stationery store next door., The delivery was completed safely.... Finally, it's time for Santa's long-awaited gift. Friends receive gifts one by one and excitedly open the wrapping paper., The King Lion combined robot set was popular at the time., lego gift sets, Young Playmobil Gift Set, Everyone was cheering with joy as gifts that children really wanted to receive, such as a princess kitchen play set, came out one after another.. Finally it's my turn. Santa Claus says you are kind and gives you gifts., It is different from other friends in terms of appearance.. The friends are in a large box, wrapped in colorful wrapping paper and with a ribbon band around it., Mine is small and wrinkled.. Still, I was full of anticipation and excitedly opened the packaging., this. Although I usually ate it, I didn't expect anything from a Christmas present. ‘scotch candy’ Isn't that one bag my gift?. At that time, my mother looked at my expression and, 6Even though he was only a year old, the disappointed expression on his face was very clear.. Then, as I looked at my other friends, I saw the envy and disappointment on my face....As we walked hand in hand on that winter night when the sky was full of twinkling stars, my mother asked me. “I didn't get the gift I wanted? Santa Claus will give you something better soon.” “huh. But I like this too.” There was no way I, an unfilial person, would have said something like that at the time., From what my mother remembers, I definitely said that.. So when I was a teenager ‘I don't know where that came from my stomach.’Even after getting angry,, When I was young, whenever I remembered the above Christmas incident, my anger subsided quickly.. No matter how I look at it, I'm an angel. Anyway, a few days after the above incident, I heard that Santa Claus had left a new one all night long, and that it was the most popular item at the time. ‘Jedi Lightsaber Radio’I received it again as a gift.. And I remember climbing on blankets in every corner of the closet and having fun playing walkie-talkie with my father.. From that 35last year last year 12month 23Day. now 3There was a Christmas event at the daycare center for my daughter, Dawon, who is now 18 years old.. Just like when I was young, there was a gift-giving ceremony prepared by each parent.... While preparing a gift, I told my wife ‘Don't prepare something too big, Even if you receive a gift, do not take off the wrapping paper and check it right away.’I asked you to. This was said out of concern that there might be a child whose parents were too busy to prepare a gift, or that a child might be disappointed after seeing a gift that was better than his/her own.. Fortunately, my worries above were unfounded.. At the Dawon Daycare Christmas event, all children’s guardians attend and exchange gifts., The children didn't open the presents on the spot and went home to check them.. Was it the daycare's consideration to prevent the disappointment I experienced when I was young?? Dawon’s gift for this Christmas is ‘Kongkongi Hospital Play Set’was. And on Christmas Eve, my grandmother, maternal grandfather, There was even a time when everyone, including my aunt, gathered together and handed out gifts separately.. now 80My father and mother, who are all grown up, were unable to be together due to a severe cough and cold suspected to be coronavirus, so we only had a video call., The wound in the mother's heart as she watched her granddaughter's tricks through the phone seemed to have completely healed.. A parent's love for their child is endless., Now my mother no longer has to feel sorry for me., It was a happier Christmas than ever with sweet memories of scotch candy..

The Eastern Branch of the Busan District Prosecutors' Office announced on the 30th that it had suspended indictment against Mr. A, who was suspected of violating the Communications Secrets Protection Act. Unlike not guilty, deferred prosecution is a disposition in which the charge is acknowledged but is not brought to court considering the circumstances. On May 22 last year, Mr. A installed a mobile phone with the recording function turned on in his wife B's vehicle and attempted to record an undisclosed conversation between others, but ended up attempting to do so and was handed over to the prosecution on charges of violating the Communications Secrets Protection Act. At the time, Mr. A was in the middle of a divorce suit with Mr. B, and Mr. A knew that Mr. B had been meeting with several men and collected evidence to be used in the lawsuit. In the prosecution investigation, Mr. A's legal representative claimed that Mr. A committed the crime accidentally after confirming Mr. B's affair, and that the crime was only attempted after being discovered by Mr. B immediately after installing the device, and that Mr. A is fully responsible for raising the young children as a caregiver and parental authority. The prosecution argued that Mr. A has no history of criminal punishment, and that if punished, it is expected that he will have difficulty in economic activities. Taking into account the fact that Mr. A regretted the crime and pledged to do his best to raise his children, the decision was made to not indict him. Jang-min Jang, chief lawyer of Daeryun Law Firm (Limited), the legal representative in the case, said, "Secretly recording phone conversations between others is not a light crime, regardless of the motive. However, in this case, the person accidentally committed the crime in order to secure evidence in a situation where his or her spouse may be suspected of cheating. "He said, "We were able to receive a non-indictment by helping to take into account the fact that he had to suffer greatly mentally upon learning of his spouse's affair and the fact that he was a caregiver raising young children."

The Busan District Court's 5th Criminal Division (Chief Judge Jang Ki-seok) announced on the 27th that it had found Mr. A (30) not guilty on charges of rape and attempted rape. Mr. A had been out drinking with acquaintances on December 13, 2022. He was sent to trial on charges of attempting to touch and engage in sexual intercourse with victim B (15 at the time) whom he saw for the first time. Mr. A attempted to kiss Ms. B during their first meeting, but after failing, he took the drunk Ms. B to a motel on the 16th of the same month and raped her. Ms. B reported that she had been raped after the incident, and Mr. A claimed that there was no sexual intercourse. At the trial, Mr. A's legal representative stated that the victim's statements were inconsistent, There was no objective evidence to support the statement, and after the incident, the victim argued that the people involved in the incident were showing abnormal reactions, such as reluctance to appear as witnesses. Previously, during the investigation, Mr. A stated that Ms. B lied about being a minor and proposed a meeting. Mr. A's legal representative proved that Ms. B lied about her age by showing a fake ID to Mr. A, and that Mr. A was not aware that Ms. B was a minor. The prosecution will admit that Mr. A recognized that Ms. B was a child or adolescent at the time of the incident. Judging that there was no evidence, the charge was not indicted. Kim Geun-soo, chief general counsel of Daeryun Law Firm (Limited), the legal representative in the case, said, "We often come across cases where people are unfairly accused of being rapists. In particular, there are many cases where minors lie about their age and approach us," and added, "There are also many cases where minors file complaints to demand money even though they have not been victims of sexual crimes. After becoming a suspect, the case investigation is centered on the victim's statement even if he or she claims to be innocent. “It is not easy to prove innocence,” he explained. Attorney Kim continued, “If the person claiming the victim fails to properly defend themselves even if their statements are inconsistent and unreliable, this will lead to a trial. Fortunately, this is a case where this was exploited and the victim was unfairly reported. Fortunately, the prosecution was able to recognize the fact that she was a minor and was acquitted by proving that she did not commit rape.” [View full article] - Man in his 30s accused of sexual crimes against minors...

After the audition program ends, Aillet will receive approx. 6Although it debuted after 1 month, ‘Hive's youngest daughter’Iran's massive publicity and 10teenagers ‘super attraction’A song with a TikTok feel that created, The center of fashion Y2K Reminiscent of the past but with added alpha ‘dreamy innocence’ The concept came together to create various new records.. However, it is an undeniable fact that even before this incident broke out, there were opinions that the concept was similar to New Genes.. First of all, when you look at it simply on the surface, there are things that the public may feel are similar. 3There are branches. number of people, hairstyle, It's choreography. both groups 5It is composed of people and has overseas members. 2Each person is included. The number of people is an element that can give a feeling of similarity in choreography formations or group pictorials.. In addition, all five members of Aillet are unified in long black hair styles, maximizing their innocence in their debut song. ‘Attention’It's like when New Jeans first stood in front of the public.. Of course, long black straight hair is not the only original style introduced by New Jeans.. However, it is a different story when the girls group together with their long hair flowing and using it as a point in the choreography.. Actually, it's Aylet's song ‘My World’The choreography in which the members turn their backs and sweep their hair is performed by New Jeans. ‘Attention’ It is similar to the choreography movement in. In addition to this movement, NewJeans' ‘Ditto’and of Reseraphim ‘EASY’A movement that seemed to have been seen in was a hot topic.. Also, A-Lit's latest follow-up song ‘Lucky Girl Syndrome (Sped Up)’New Jeans’ McDonald’s in Edo CMHand movements similar to song choreography are seen..The choreography was intentional. ‘openly’ It can be seen as a strategy aimed at gaining popularity by imitating people.. The fact that there is a lot of talk about the concept, which can be said to be the group's identity, is a challenge that Aillet, who has just debuted, must solve.. Music videos or concept photos other than the current music, The consensus among experts is that New Jeans is emerging from Eyelet in general, including promotion methods..The concept may be similar, but it is difficult to prove legally. However, it is not easy to judge it as plagiarism just because the concept is similar.. law firm(finite) Taehwan Kim, a lawyer specializing in intellectual property rights at Daeryun, “When looking at Eyelet and New Jeans as individual products, there is a high possibility that they are similar.”as “However, even though it is quite similar in terms of concept, it is difficult to determine whether it is infringing on copyright based on legal judgment., It must be examined whether it constitutes a violation of the Unfair Competition Prevention Act.”explained.First of all, the concept ‘idea’It is not protected by copyright law as it is an area of. This is in copyright ‘Dichotomy between ideas and expressions’They say so, Copyright protects ‘expression’limited to ‘idea’does not protect. At this time, it is not the overall concept, but the music that is each element of the concept., Choreography, If substantial similarity and a dependent relationship are recognized in the area of ​​other copyrighted works, such as photographic works, it may constitute copyright infringement.. However, lawyer Kim Tae-hwan “The lyrics and melodies of the two groups' songs are different., There are many parts where individual choreography differs in detail depending on the flow of music.”as “If this is proceeded as a copyright infringement lawsuit, it is believed that there will be many legal defenses, so it will not be easy for copyright infringement to be recognized.”said.Even from the perspective of the Unfair Competition Prevention Act, it is ambiguous.. In the case of New Jeans and Eyelet, the provisions that will be problematic are acts of confusion such as business signs, etc., Stealing ideas, There is unauthorized theft of achievements, etc.. Regarding this, lawyer Kim Tae-hwan said: “From the victim's side ‘The person who stole the idea did not know about the idea or it was not widely known in the same industry.’I have to prove it, It is not easy because you have to prove that it is special or unique.”While “Also, whether the concept of New Jeans can be protected? ‘unique achievements’ It may be difficult to prove”gave an opinion. This is because it is not easy to prove that all the individual elements that make up the concept are new and have not been announced..There is nothing new under the sky. But we still have to try to make a difference., If that effort is visible, no one will have an issue with the perceived similarity.. Therefore, the controversy over Aylit and New Genes plagiarism is also connected to the issue of Hive’s morality.. Attorney Taehwan Kim “In areas such as creation or art, copying a concept is morally problematic.. The controversy arose over the fact that the concept was copied from a parent company, not a competitor, due to moral awareness., It seems like a situation sufficient to be criticized in terms of ethics.”said.Similarity under one roof is natural? In fact, let alone the similarity of the concept, ‘Is it okay for labels with the same parent company to cause such a plagiarism controversy?’Opinions are divided among industry officials on the issue of. Critic Kim Young-dae ‘Amplified’ In the podcast “Hive is now in a position to lead the gods., Rather than feeling like they are presenting something, they are expressing the most perfect state they can create. (repeatedly) is creating”I felt regretful..However, there is also a view that there is no problem because they are the same Hive labels.. One industry insider said “Just as Samsung refers to its predecessor when making the next version of its mobile phone,, Idol groups released by the same company should be allowed to have similarities”as “Other agencies also have similarities between their groups.”He said. Then he “Although CEO Min Hee-jin is currently leading Adore, he originally 2019Chief Brand Officer when joining Hive in 2018(CBO)joined the company. Of course, HiBro would have wanted to utilize Min Hee-jin’s capabilities across the entire group.”said.So, since it is a relationship between a parent company and its subsidiaries, is there a legal problem if New Genes' success grammar was used to promote group-level profits?. Currently, each label under Hive is dedicated to content production., Public relations and legal affairs are managed exclusively by the parent company, Hive.. Attorney Taehwan Kim “Hive is the company's ‘stable sales’A decision may have been made to actively utilize the process of reproducing similar content.”As a precedent worth referencing, 2017sentenced to years SPPIntroducing the Joseon ruling. At that time, Lee Nak-young SPPChairman Chosun is under the management of creditors. SPPPurchase materials for affiliated companies with Joseon's funds SPPHe was accused of breach of trust for causing damage by transferring shipbuilding scrap metal to another affiliate.. However, the Supreme Court did not recognize intentional breach of trust, judging that it was done within the scope of reasonable management discretion.. It was the first Supreme Court ruling that stated that support between affiliates within a group cannot be considered a breach of trust if it is for the common benefit of the group and not for a specific person or company..Attorney Taehwan Kim “When applying this precedent, although the field is different, Hive(parent company)autumn eyelet(Subsidiary affiliation)Can this be seen as an act of support for, If so, it depends on whether there is room for it to be considered for the group's common benefit. ‘crime of breach of trust’It seems that there is room to influence whether or not the”said. If support is provided at the parent company level,, Also, if it is judged to be in the group's common interest, the method of success of New Genes can now be seen in Aylit., Next time, Aylet's method of success may be discovered in the next group..

This means that it will provide tax support to users. Bithumb held a virtual asset 'Air-Drop' event for users from 2018 to 2021, and recently the National Tax Service notified users who received virtual assets through the above event of comprehensive income tax. As taxes have not yet been levied on profits obtained from cryptocurrency transactions, users may be embarrassed by the sudden imposition of tax. Bithumb decided to support taxes generated by airdrops to users. And the tax appeal process for the tax disposition is currently in progress. The imposition of capital gains tax on cryptocurrency transactions, that is, sales, exchange, and rental income, is scheduled to take effect from January 1, 2025. However, this only postponed the taxation of capital gains tax due to sales, exchanges, and rentals from a policy perspective, and inheritance or gifts of cryptocurrency were in fact still subject to taxation. So what about airdrops? Airdrop refers to the act of providing coins for free by a coin issuer. While transfer, such as sale, exchange, or rental, is when one party provides something and the other party pays money in return, a gift is an act where one party provides something to the other party for free. Therefore, an airdrop is a gift, not a transfer, so in principle, income generated from an airdrop is currently subject to tax. The problem is that taxation of airdrop coins may be a hasty disposition as it has not been specifically established what the legal nature of airdrops is and what taxes should be levied. Whether or not they are subject to taxation may vary depending on individual cases. Even if it is an act of free provision, if a free gift is provided according to the purchase quantity or purchase amount for a certain period of time based on an agreement between the parties, it is not considered a business gift and is not taxed. On the other hand, in the case of a free gift, taxes and dues are imposed on the recipient as it is considered as other income of the recipient. Unlike free gifts that are uniformly given based on purchase performance, prizes are viewed as items given to a limited number of customers through a drawing or other means. Department store gift certificates given when you purchase a certain amount at a department store are free gifts, and first-come, first-served items are prizes. In the case of the airdrop conducted by Bithumb, it was an event-based airdrop. In other words, this is a case where a coin issuer holds an event through Bithumb and if the conditions presented in the event are met, you can receive coins as an airdrop. Bithumb views the nature of event airdrop coins as free gifts as event rewards, but the National Tax Service seems to view them as giveaways and tax them. For reference, the United States and Japan impose income tax on coins acquired by individuals through airdrops, but Singapore and Australia do not impose taxation. We looked at the Bithumb airdrop event that took place throughout the year of 2018. Of the approximately 36 airdrop events, 30 were events in which cryptocurrency was paid differentially according to the contribution rate during a specific period or at a specific point in time. This appears to be exactly the same event as a department store gift certificate giveaway event. Therefore, since airdrops are performed uniformly according to purchase performance, it seems appropriate that airdrop coins received through these events are considered free gifts and are not taxed. In the remaining 6 cases, there were slightly different payment conditions, such as paying the coins to the lowest price purchaser of the event coins, the highest price purchaser, or the nth purchaser. Since this is a case where the winner is selected through a lottery or certain conditions must be met separate from the purchase, the coins received in this way are likely to be taxable as prize coins. It has not been confirmed specifically which event participants were subject to taxation. However, I believe that most of the event airdrops are in the nature of free gifts in that they are 'airdropped to the person who purchased this coin according to their share ratio'. If the National Tax Service imposes a lump sum tax on all recipients of Bithumb's event airdrop coins, Bithumb will likely have a lot to say about this. There are countless legal issues that have not been established in the blockchain and cryptocurrency markets. This 'Bithumb incident' is attracting attention as it is expected to become a leading case among legal interpretations of cryptocurrency. We hope that our laws and courts can become a catalyst for the growth of a healthy blockchain market.

The youth start-up tax reduction is a system that provides income tax and corporate tax reduction for five years when young people (15 to 34 years old) start a business. This is an unprecedented tax benefit of 100% for starting a business outside of the overcrowding control area, and 50% for starting a business in the overcrowding control area for 5 years. The overcrowding control area is an area that is or is likely to be overly dense for the proper placement of population and industry in Seoul and the metropolitan area and needs maintenance. Therefore, if you have a business address outside of Seoul and some areas of Gyeonggi Province, you do not have to pay a single won in taxes. Compared to 2016, the scale of youth start-up tax reduction benefits has increased rapidly, with a 437.8% increase in the number of people and a 650.6% increase in the amount. It can be seen that this is a huge figure when compared to the figures for the total tax reduction under the Restriction of Special Taxation Act, which increased by 54.0% in number of people and 83.3% in amount over the same period. As many people are receiving tax reduction, the number of people who do not pay a single penny of tax through expedient means has also increased. A representative example is moving the business address outside of the overpopulation control area, registering the business falsely, and receiving a reduction in income tax and corporate tax. This clearly has the potential for tax evasion. This is the first time that the National Tax Service has initiated a tax investigation into a young entrepreneur who receives tax reductions. The tax authorities will first determine the status of business registration and check for legal deficiencies. In-won Kim, a tax lawyer who has been handling tax-related cases for a long time, including violations of the Tax Criminal Punishment Act, said, “Consultations for young people to receive tax reductions such as income tax and corporate tax when starting a business are steadily increasing.” He advised, "It seems necessary to check the current situation, such as receiving tax advice in advance to see if there are any problems when starting a business. In general, there is no problem if you follow the legal procedures to save taxes, but tax evasion by not paying taxes through illegal acts is an illegal act. Therefore, it can be said that tax issues absolutely require assistance, such as review, from an expert with long-term accumulated professional experience appropriate to the situation.

MOU signing was also active. Headquarters control tower provides uniform legal services to local military units through organic cooperation. Daeryun Law Firm announced on the 9th that it will provide systematic legal services related to the military by strengthening the Defense Military Group, which specializes in military cases. The Defense Military Group provides legal services by forming a professional team of 3 to 20 people in each field depending on the size of the case. Daeryun recently led the group leader, attorney Kim Young-soo. A large number of military lawyers were recruited. The strategy is to increase the success rate by having a veteran expert with experience in internal military cases oversee the case. Attorney Kim Young-soo (13th military judge) is a former head of the Navy's legal affairs division, chief military court, and deputy general judge of the High Military Court, and has held key positions in the military, including the head of the Navy's High Prosecutors' Office and the director of the Naval Human Rights Center. Attorney Kim has handled major military criminal cases such as bribery cases and sexual assault cases within military units, as well as retirees' pensions. He has led unprecedented lawsuits, including group lawsuits related to underpayment. Together with Attorney Kim, Attorney Seo In-ho (16th Military Judge Advocate), a former military judge and legal staff member of the Army, will lead the dedicated team as a talented person with diverse experience, including military judge of the 3rd Corps (Inje) and 5th Corps (Pocheon), after working in the legal office of the Army Headquarters and the Joint Chiefs of Staff. Attorney Seo is the legal staff member (Chief of Prosecutors) of the 30th Division and the 3rd Corps. He served as a military rights advisor and chairman of the Special Deliberation Committee on National Compensation at the Army Headquarters. We specialize in military-related cases, including disciplinary action related to adultery between married people, disciplinary action for drinking, and various disciplinary cases such as disobedience to orders, failure to comply with instructions, and violation of decency. In addition to Attorney Kim and Seo, the National Defense Military Group includes the Chief of Legal Affairs at the 5th Air Mobility Wing of the Air Force, Younghyeong Kim (7th Class), a former Air Force military prosecutor, and the Chief of Legal Affairs at the 1st Marine Division, who served as a Navy legal officer. Military lawyers such as Kim Gyeong-deok (7th class), Ji Eun-hye (7th class), a former consulting attorney at the Army Logistics Support Command, Choi Hyeon-deok (8th class), a former Air Force disciplinary investigator and litigation officer, and Park Yong-heul (9th class), a former military prosecutor and head of the legal department at the 3rd Army Military Academy, join to systematically respond to military cases. He has successfully led a number of military criminal cases, including ▲ assault cases of junior soldiers, ▲ military sexual crime cases such as forced molestation and rape, ▲ superior officer insult cases, and ▲ military service law violations. With the recent revision of the Military Court Act, some military crimes, including sexual violence crimes, are investigated by civilian investigative agencies rather than military units and are tried in civilian courts. With the abolition of the High Military Court, judgments on factual trials must also receive legal judgment from outside professional judges, not from the military. However, in the case of disciplinary procedures, the consensus in the legal community is that they are conducted within the military unit and require the help of experts, such as the formation of a committee. Regarding this, lawyer Kim Young-soo explained, “Disciplinary members are not legal experts, and ordinary officers working in the unit become disciplinary members,” and “This is why communication from experts who know the atmosphere of the field is necessary.” The National Defense Military Group is strengthening its expertise and expanding its scope by linking a number of military-related cases, such as defense industry corruption, military secret cases, and IT business state contracts, with the corporate legal group. The plan is to provide optimal legal services through systematic collaboration between military lawyers and corporate legal experts. We are also actively developing military-related business agreements to expand the Defense Military Group, and signed a legal advisory MOU with the Korea Military Industry Association last month. Attorney Kim said, “Due to the special nature of the military, since there are military units across the country, the national office must move organically and work as one team.” “I will do it,” he said, expressing his ambition.

A team of military attorneys responds quickly (click here) 2026-05-11T01:51:11.976Z https://www.daeryunlaw.com/en/broadcast/3051 A tip-off that Chairman Kim Hyun-jae of the real estate investment platform company 'K Samheung' committed an investment fraud worth hundreds of billions of won was reported on JTBC's 'Case Manager' today (8th). Since its establishment in 2021, K-Samheung, where Chairman Kim Hyun-jae is currently serving, has been promoting the company through the media and recruiting investors. The investment method they have proposed is 'land compensation investment'. The plan is that K Samheung will pre-purchase the land to be developed by the government or local government, receive compensation once the development is confirmed, and share the proceeds. Regarding the selection of the investment site, it is said that the land to be purchased by the government can be predicted through 'big data' analysis technology and that it has advertised that it has brought in experts from 'Google'. In particular, regarding the profits, etc., it promised 'principal guarantee' and 'dividend income of more than 2% per month' (profit of more than 24% per year). One damaged investor. He claimed, “Dividends and principal were coming in regularly, so most of the profits were reinvested,” and “Since last March, the money has suddenly stopped running out, so I reported it to the police.” Who is Chairman Kim Hyun-jae of K Samheung?...'A convicted real estate fraud convict' In the early 2000s, Chairman Kim Hyun-jae, who was the chairman of Samheung Group at the time, is known to have embezzled tens of billions of won using the 'planned real estate' method. Planned real estate is a fraudulent method of buying land in a certain area, dividing it into small pieces, and then selling it back to investors by making false or exaggerated advertisements such as 'land with good news for rising land prices.' In the early 2000s, he hired telemarketers to recruit investors by making up or exaggerating good real estate news, and later made huge profits by reselling properties purchased at low prices. As a result, Chairman Kim Hyunjae was put on trial on charges of embezzlement of 24.5 billion won and sentenced to three years in prison. Looking into K-Samheung... 'Capital of 1 million won, operating loss of 75.3 billion won' K-Samheung was founded by Chairman Kim Hyeon-jae after leaving prison. The victims' investors claim that although it advertised a real estate investment business, 'there was no substance'. In fact, according to the Small and Medium Business Status Information System, K Samheung was established with a capital of 1 million won, and recorded an operating loss of about 75.3 billion won last year. It is about three times the amount of the previous year (KRW 24.8 billion). The affected investors claimed, “It is highly likely that the investment money was being diverted elsewhere rather than being used for land purchase costs.” They also said, “We have not even received a proper explanation of how the profits will be paid or how the money will be raised.” According to the affected investors, the current amount of damage identified is about KRW 130 billion. In particular, one victim investor claimed to the ‘Case Manager’, “There are at least 1,000 victims, and the damage is expected to exceed 300 billion won.” K Samheung's side said, "I can't contact Chairman Kim Hyunjae... I have nothing to say." The Seoul Metropolitan Police Agency's Financial Crimes Investigation Unit is investigating Chairman Kim Hyunjae and other company executives on charges of fraud under the Act on the Aggravated Punishment of Specific Economic Crimes and violation of the Act on Regulation of Quasi-Receipts. Choi Hyun-deok, lawyer at Daeryun Law Firm, said of K Samheung's alleged fraud, "The mere fact that he said 'principal guarantee' and 'we will pay differential returns of about 80-250%' is intentional in the fraud case. In addition, he pointed out, "The victims used the IOU, but since they used it as a corporation without a joint guarantee, there is a high possibility that they will not get their money back if the corporation is dissolved." In relation to this, a high-ranking official of K Samheung said to the 'Case Leader', "We understand that Chairman Kim Hyun-jae is seeking a way to raise the proceeds," but added, "We have no contact with (Chairman Kim) and we have no information on his whereabouts."

Hospital director's fine increased from 20 million won to 40 million won. A caregiver in his 60s who inserted a piece of sanitary pad into the anus of a patient admitted to a nursing hospital because of difficulty in handling bowel movements appealed against the first trial ruling, but the sentence was increased in the appeal trial compared to the original trial. According to the legal community on the 7th, the Incheon District Court's Criminal Appeal Division 2-3 (Chief Judge Shin Soon-young) overturned the lower court's sentence of 3 years and 6 months in prison for Mr. A, a Chinese national caregiver who was arrested and indicted on charges of violating the Welfare of Persons with Disabilities Act, and sentenced him to 5 years in prison. In addition, Mr. A was ordered to restrict employment at institutions related to the disabled for 10 years. The appellate court overturned the original judgment that sentenced Mr. B, the hospital director, who was also indicted on charges of failing to properly manage and supervise the nursing hospital, to a fine of 20 million won and sentenced him to a fine of 40 million won. From the end of April to early May, Mr. A performed sanitary sanitation on the anus of Mr. C, a brain lesion patient, at a nursing hospital in Namdong-gu, Incheon, on several occasions. He was arrested and indicted on charges of inserting 10 pads. As a result of the investigation, it was revealed that Mr. A committed the crime by cutting the pad used on the hospital bed. During the investigation, the defendant, Mr. A, claimed that “Mr. C had to change his diaper frequently because he had loose stools,” and “I inserted a piece of the pad into his anus to make it easier to dispose of the stool.” In the end, Mr. C suffered from anal fissures and defecation dysfunction, and his condition worsened, so he was transferred to a university hospital. Mr. C’s legal representative evaluated the victim’s physical evaluation and Based on the medical record analysis, it was proven that Mr. C suffered great physical and mental pain due to Mr. A's crime. In addition, it was proven that appropriate measures were not taken against Mr. B, who had neglected the management and supervision of Mr. A, after the first crime. Daeryun Law Firm, the legal representative of Mr. C, said, “The caregiver who was supposed to care for the patient with all sincerity abandoned his duty and committed an inhumane act.” He added, “We are also proceeding with a lawsuit for compensation for the victim’s damages. We plan to do our best to ensure that the victim receives appropriate compensation for his or her pain.” [View full article] Edaily - A caregiver and hospital director who put pads in a patient's anus have their sentences increased on appeal (link) The Fact - A caregiver who put a sanitary pad on a patient's anus has their sentences increased on appeal... 3 years and 6 months → 5 years (Shortcut) Roy Issue - Sentence increased again on appeal for caregiver and hospital director who put pad in patient's anus (Shortcut) Yonhap News - Caregiver who put sanitary pad in patient's anus...

The judges in this case also had such times, and the same goes for other adults." This January, the Seoul Administrative Court The 11th Administrative Division (Chief Judge Kang Woo-chan) ruled in favor of the plaintiff in a lawsuit to cancel dispositions such as service hours, and unlike general cases, 'the contents of the judgment and instructions summarized in simple language for the juvenile plaintiff' were specified in a boxed form in the judgment. At the time, Chief Judge Kang said, "The person involved in the case is the plaintiff student himself. In order to become a mature adult who can take responsibility for his own life, he must fully know and understand what is happening to him and what the results were, and learn something from it," and did not spare words of advice and encouragement for the plaintiff who will read the verdict beyond the simple sentence. The 11th Administrative Division, led by Chief Judge Kang, was also the first to attempt the 'Easy Read Judgment' for the hearing impaired. According to Asia Today's coverage on the 7th, the search for a court that will take the lead in writing judgments easily, like the '11th Administrative Division', has begun at the court level. The National Court Administration posted a notice on the court's internal Courtnet last month and is recruiting judges to participate in the implementation of appropriate judgments by the 24th. This is good news that has come out since the start of this magazine's 'Let's Write Judgment Easily' project series. In the future, the National Court Administration will △ single cases in civil and domestic affairs and their appellate cases (including civil small claims cases) △ cases with relatively low appeal rates and reversal rates (loans, third party objections/claim objections, sale proceeds, transfer proceeds, distribution objections) △ cases with a large number of cases and relatively stereotyped cases. We are working on optimizing the writing of concise and easy-to-understand judgments only for cases (delivery and demolition of buildings, cancellation of fraudulent acts, compensation for automobile accident damages, and rental deposits). An example of the previously discussed 'adjustment of civil and domestic affairs judgments' is also attached to this notice. △Writing in a modified or enumerated form instead of a complete sentence △Omitting the basic facts and listing only the issue and judgment about it △Replacing basic and acknowledged facts that are not in major dispute with a separate page △Replacing the claims of the parties with a title △If there are many items claimed, organizing them in a table and simply writing them down. Based on this, it seems that even more creative methods will be discussed. An official from the National Court Administration said, "If you write in sentences for completeness, “There are a lot of conjunctions such as ‘but’, ‘however’, and ‘and’, and we plan to optimize them by listing them in the form of a report,” he explained. “Since there are only subjects and predicates, it will be easier to write and readable for readers.” In the legal community, it is pointed out that the optimization of judgments that the court is attempting to do should not only aim to reduce the burden of judges’ work, but should also take into account the aspect of improving judicial access for the general public. Even though there are objective and neutral terms that are familiar to the general public, there is a need to avoid using difficult Chinese terms and establish a comprehensive standard and system for this. Attorney Yujin Moon (representative attorney of a trial law firm), who was a judge, said, "When I was a judge, I said in court that 'the trial has been renewed' while conducting a trial, but explained 'It means that the trial has been reviewed again because the judge has changed.'" Also, in the ruling, he said, “I think it is easier for the general public to use the simpler expression ‘rights were taken away’ rather than ‘rights were taken away’,” he said. “In the end, the court needs to create standards that can change the difficult terms currently being used into familiar and easy-to-understand terms.” Therefore, it is emphasized that outdated legal terms should be revised legislatively and that judges should make an effort to keep sentences as short as possible in their rulings. Na-ri Park, a former judge and chief general counsel at Daeryun Law Firm, said, "It is also called a 'Silutteok sentence', and it would be good to avoid the structure of paragraphs that overlap several sentences (in severe cases, exceeding one page) in the manner of 'If you put point, point, point, point together, it is judged that ~'." Park continued. The lawyer said, "I think the attempt to write a short and easy-to-understand judgment is very positive," and added, "If the court makes an effort to write a judgment that takes the people's position into consideration, I think it will help improve the people's judicial trust in the court." [View full article] - “Short and concise”… Signs of change within the judiciary 2026-05-07T09:53:07.619Z https://www.daeryunlaw.com/en/broadcast/3044 On April 25, the Constitutional Court ruled that the reserved portion system, including Article 1112 of the Civil Act, was partially unconstitutional and inconsistent with the Constitution in a review and constitutional appeal. “Brothers and sisters’ inheritance is unconstitutional.” The Constitutional Court ruled that the current civil law, which stipulates that brothers and sisters inherit a certain percentage of the inheritance regardless of the deceased’s will, is unconstitutional. As a result, the effect of Article 1112, Paragraph 4 of the Civil Act, which states that 'brothers and sisters of the deceased are entitled to a reserved share of one-third of the statutory inheritance', was immediately lost at the time of the decision to be unconstitutional. The Constitutional Court made this decision, pointing out that "it is difficult to find a valid reason for granting a reserved share, even though brothers and sisters are hardly recognized for their contribution to the formation of the inherited property or their expectations of the inherited property." Previously, the right to claim a reserved portion was an inheritance right that brothers and sisters could also claim, but this means that in the future, brothers and sisters will not be able to file a lawsuit claiming the return of a reserved portion based on the reserved portion. "The reserved portion for spouses and lineal ascendants and descendants is inconsistent with the Constitution." The Constitutional Court ruled that the part stipulating the statutory inheritance for spouses and lineal ascendants and descendants was also unconstitutional because it did not specify the reasons for loss of reserved portion. Recognizing the reserved portion of an heir who has engaged in immoral acts, such as abandoning his or her parents for a long period of time or mentally and physically abusing them, is said to be contrary to the legal sentiments and common sense of the general public. Therefore, Article 1112 Nos. 1 to 3 of the Civil Act, which does not separately provide for the reasons for loss of reserved portion, creates an unfair and unreasonable situation in which a contributing heir must return the donated property in response to a non-contributory heir's request for return of the reserved portion. Article 1118 of the Civil Act was unanimously judged to be inconsistent with the Constitution as it was a legislative act that did not provide for Article 1008-2 to apply mutatis mutandis to reserved portions. The purpose is that the reserve may be lost depending on specific circumstances, such as adultery or neglect of a child by a parent. Constitutional inconsistency is a decision that temporarily remains in effect until the National Assembly revises the law due to concerns about confusion caused by a legal vacuum. Regarding the above two provisions, they called for legislative improvement, saying that they will remain in effect only until revised by the legislator (National Assembly) with a deadline of December 31, 2025. Forced inheritance distribution system, first decision of the Constitutional Court in 47 years. An official of the Constitutional Court said, "This is the first decision to comprehensively rule on the legitimacy of the reserve system and the constitutionality of specific provisions." “We continued to recognize the legitimacy of the Constitution in that it is necessary, but it is significant in declaring some provisions unconstitutional and urging legislative improvement,” he explained. The current Civil Code sets the share (statutory inheritance) that children, spouses, parents, brothers, and sisters can inherit. The reserved portion system is the minimum inheritance amount set by law and was introduced in 1977 to prevent specific heirs from monopolizing inherited property. Simply put, even if the deceased inherited all of the property through a will only to a specific heir, the remaining surviving family members who did not receive the inheritance can file a lawsuit based on the reserve system and receive the inherited property. There have been continued criticisms that this reserve system excessively infringes on individual property rights and lags behind social changes. In addition, controversy over the reserve system arose further as singer Goo Hara's biological mother, who had not been in contact with her since her death in 2019, claimed her inheritance rights, and the so-called 'Goo Hara Act', which limits the right to request reserves, was proposed in the National Assembly, but was abolished at the end of the 20th National Assembly session. The Constitutional Court made a decision that had been pending for 47 years regarding the reserved portion system, which has repeatedly raised questions about its unconstitutionality. Park Yong-du, an inheritance lawyer, said, "We must intensively study inheritance-related issues that have become more complex after the Constitutional Court's decision and thoroughly prepare for the complexity of the proof relationship, such as the degree of unconstitutional behavior and contribution to the reserved portion, in inheritance disputes related to the reserved portion that are continuously increasing in the future." “In the case of a lawsuit, the outcome of the lawsuit may vary depending on the lawyer’s capabilities, so more professional lawyers are likely to be preferred,” he predicted.

In relation to the application to suspend the increase in medical school capacity raised by the medical community, this is because the court said that it would receive evidence on the increase from the government and consider it. It also requested that the increase not be confirmed until the middle of this month. Which issue will be the key variable? Reporter Jeon Dong-hyuk pointed it out. ◀ Report ▶ Last month, the application for 'suspension of medical school expansion' filed by medical school professors, residents, and medical students was 'dismissed' without even receiving a decision from the trial court. Since the direct stakeholder in the expansion is the university president, it was deemed that professors, residents, etc. had no right to raise an objection. However, the appeals court of the Seoul High Court ruled that the president who benefits from the expansion is legally entitled to it. It was pointed out that there was no reason to enter into a dispute. Therefore, the court indicated that it would judge not only the eligibility of the applicants but also the legality of the decision to increase the number of personnel. It requested the government to detail the basis for the '2,000-person increase', from on-site inspection results and meeting minutes to future support plans and required budget. [Nari Park/Attorney] "You can think of it as 'we will look at all the submitted materials and make a decision within a few weeks from then.' I think there is a high possibility that a decision will be made. "Given the nature of the case that examines the legality of administrative dispositions, the key issue seems to be whether the expansion of medical schools is essentially in the 'public interest'. [Seong Bong-geun/Professor at Seokyeong University (majoring in administrative law)] "The most important thing is whether it is likely to have a significant impact on public welfare. Is it a private matter that cannot protect the various interests of doctors, or is it something that serves the public interest?" Lim Hyun-taek, president of the Korean Medical Association, welcomed the court, saying it put a brake on the government's unilateral policy. [Lim Hyun-taek/President of the Korean Medical Association] "The government itself admitted that the number of 2,000 students was not even grounded in allowing national medical schools to voluntarily adjust their quota..." The final count of the increase in admissions for next year at 31 medical schools was found to be 1,469. The University Education Council said this month that the court decision was made. He announced that he will not announce plans for next year's college admissions process until the middle of the year. This is Jeon Dong-hyuk from MBC News.

The Local Housing Association Promotion Committee (hereinafter referred to as the Promotion Committee), which induced members to join the union by deceiving them by saying that they would return the full amount of down payment depending on the progress of the project, returned the full amount to the members. According to the legal community on the 29th, the Eastern Branch of the Busan District Court recently ruled in favor of all the plaintiffs in a lawsuit filed by union members against a Promotion Committee in the Busan region. “Pay the plaintiffs their respective contributions and administrative service fees, plus money calculated at an annual rate of 12% until the date of repayment. The defendant shall bear the costs of the lawsuit,” the order said. The union members filed a lawsuit, claiming that the Promotion Committee had induced members to join the union through the ‘Safety Guarantee System’ and made them pay tens of millions of won, but did not return the installments. The Safety Guarantee System proposed by the Promotion Committee at the time of recruitment was to protect the union in case the establishment and business of the union were to fail. This means that those who wish to join can receive a full refund, including the deposit paid. The union members who joined at the time also received a letter of confirmation of the contents. However, it was revealed that the promotion committee did not even apply for approval to establish a union to the competent government office. In particular, as the progress of the project was delayed and the outlook became unclear, the promotion committee held an extraordinary general meeting and dissolved the union, citing conflict among members and project delays due to an increase in project costs, and gave up all rights related to the project. Nevertheless, the promotion committee did not want to return the amount paid, and as a result, some union members were suffering from hardships. Accordingly, the union members filed a lawsuit against the local housing association to hold the promotion committee responsible for the return of contributions due to the failure of the project. The legal representative for the union members argued that the contributions paid by the union members should be returned in accordance with the guarantee of security for the union members and the agreement on dissolution and settlement of the union. An official from Daeryun Law Firm (Limited), who acted as legal representative for the union members, said, “If there had been no agreement to guarantee return, the plaintiffs would not have signed the subscription agreement in this case.” “After emphasizing the existence of intentional deception, the promotion committee returned the contribution as unfair profits,” he explained. He added, “Deceiving the victims with ridiculous exaggerated advertisements is a clear crime of fraud,” and added, “If you want to withdraw your subscription after depositing the membership fee or withdraw your membership against the promotion committee or the union, you must actively prove intentional deception in court, but the reality is that it is not easy to prove.” [View full article] - Busan local housing association whose project failed... Court: Full installment payment must be returned to union members (link) 2026-05-14T06:48:54.162Z https://www.daeryunlaw.com/en/broadcast/3013 The key is whether or not the actual action was taken, and whether or not the contract was leaked will also likely be an issue. As the conflict between the agency Hive and its subsidiary Adore CEO Min Hee-jin led to a police complaint, attention is focused on whether Hive's allegations of CEO Min's breach of duty will be proven. The legal community believes that it is not easy to acknowledge Representative Min's charges of breach of trust in terms of the content and target of the breach of trust based solely on the circumstances that have been disclosed to date. However, both sides can file additional charges, so there is room for the investigation to expand to other charges. According to the opinions of lawyers and legal scholars on the 28th, in order for CEO Min to be charged with breach of trust in business, the key question is whether there was an ‘actual act’ and, if so, whether this act caused damage to ‘Adore’, where Min Hee-jin is serving as CEO, not Hive, the largest shareholder. Breach of trust in business is not punished in the preliminary or conspiracy stages. ‘Initiation or commencement of implementation’ is necessary. Attorney Park Hoon said in a phone call with the Hankyoreh on this day, “In order to establish a charge of breach of trust in business, there must be evidence that CEO Min initiated specific actions, such as ‘writing a contract to take in New Genes,’ rather than saying, ‘I will take New Genes.’” He added, “It is also difficult to punish the issue of seizing management rights just for what was said in a messenger.” A charge of breach of trust in business is committed when the management causes damage to the company. This does not apply when damage is caused to shareholders. Therefore, in this case, even if there was ‘initiation or commencement of execution’, the victim of CEO Min’s breach of trust in business is only ‘Corporation Adore’ and cannot be ‘largest shareholder Hive’, which holds 80% of Adore’s shares. The most famous precedent in this regard is the Supreme Court ruling in the case of the issuance of Everland convertible bonds at a low price in connection with the succession of management rights to Samsung Electronics Chairman Lee Jae-yong in 2009. At the time, the Supreme Court acquitted former Samsung Group Chairman Lee Kun-hee and others on charges of breach of trust under the logic that even if convertible bonds were issued at a low price, this was only a ‘loss to shareholders’ and not a ‘damage to the company.’ However, if CEO Min’s ‘leak of the contract’, which Hive is taking issue with, is true and this ultimately caused damage to Adore, the possibility of various criminal punishments, including breach of duty, is open. On the 26th, Hive side refuted CEO Min's press conference held the day before and claimed, "We conducted (the audit) after confirming that documents classified as management secrets were leaked." Attorney Taejeong Yang (Gwangya Law Firm) said, "If (Hive's) story that Vice President Adore leaked Hive's internal financial data and artist contract data and planned a strategy is correct, then it is a trade secret under the Unfair Competition Prevention Act. “It can be seen as a leak that has damaged the stock price or image of the company Adore (rather than the shareholder hive),” he said. Attorney Jeong Jin-kwon (Soul Law Firm) said, “If you showed personnel data to a third party, such as a shaman, you could be accused of violating the Personal Information Protection Act.” There are many predictions that the dispute between Hive and CEO Min will escalate into a civil lawsuit in the future. Attorney Jeong Jin-kwon said, “In a situation where Hive, the majority shareholder, has requested to convene a general shareholders’ meeting to dismiss Representative Min, Representative Min may file a lawsuit confirming the invalidity of the general shareholders’ resolution or a provisional injunction to confirm director status in order to maintain his position.” Attorney Ji Min-hee (Daeryun Law Firm) said, “There is a possibility that (Hive) may file a claim for damages due to infringement of trade secrets, etc.” Regarding the accusation from Hive's CEO Min, an official at the Yongsan Police Station stated, "We will review the complaint and then look into the charges."

According to the coverage of on the 25th, recently, A, a student at a high school in Busan, continued to be bullied for no reason by his classmate B. On the day of the incident, B indiscriminately assaulted his face and other areas. Person A, who was being attacked, was referred to the School Violence Response Review Committee on the grounds that Person B raised his hands in defense despite being unilaterally assaulted. Person A, who was unfairly accused of being a perpetrator of school violence in this incident, complained of not only physical damage requiring more than three weeks of treatment, but also mental damage so severe that he was unable to attend school. Accordingly, Person A's legal representative proved that it was an act of defense against violence and that Person B had not been harmed. In the end, Person B was the victim. He was sent to the prosecution on charges of injury after being banned from contacting, intimidating, or retaliating against others and being given a class change. Mr. A was cleared of the false accusation and received protection measures for victims of school violence. An official of Mr. A's legal representative, Daeryun Law Firm (Lihan), said, "Thanks to accompanying the school violence committee and emphasizing the unfairness of the victim, we were able to receive treatment and care for treatment." He said, "It was possible to provide priority protection to victims." According to the revised law, if a perpetrator of school violence is suspended from attendance (No. 6), changed class (No. 7), or transferred school (No. 3), the school records will be preserved for 4 years, up from the existing 2 years. In the case of dispositions 6 and 7, the proviso that allowed deletion through deliberation just before graduation was maintained. However, even if a record of school violence is deleted after deliberation right before graduation, the standards for deletion are strictly defined, including that there must be a sincere apology from the perpetrator. An official from Daeryun explained, "Even if a perpetrator who has received a severe punishment for school violence commits a third or fourth attempt after graduating from high school, the perpetrator must apply for college admission with the student record on which the punishment for school violence is recorded. This means that it can affect not only college admissions but also employment." He added, "As the trend of strict punishment for school violence spreads, the future is bright." He added, “The practice of granting impunity to perpetrators of school violence in the name of punishment has disappeared.” [View full article] - With the implementation of the revised school violence prevention law, victims who are accused of being perpetrators are freed from the injustice they feel (Go here) 2026-05-13T04:54:01.785Z https://www.daeryunlaw.com/en/broadcast/2998 17After finishing his career as a judge in 2018, he became a lawyer this year."Meeting with those who need help with the rest of their legal life"To a juvenile offender '10call disposition' The scene is still talked about today"not a bad memory, If you get a chance to look back on yourself" "mother wake up OOO Would you like to stand next to me??

In this case, after the start of the first trial, 4There are many cases where more than a year passes. There are times when the crime was committed and there is too much delay in the implementation of justice.. Even in civil cases 1There are many cases where it takes about a year..

Expressions of implicit effects are also punishable: "It's out of stock. We haven't received the product for several months already.", "Out of stock, out of stock. You have to come early in the morning on the day it comes in stock. Otherwise, you won't have it." After receiving a recommendation from an influencer on a social network (SNS) platform, there has been a shortage of Ointment A, an over-the-counter medicine, and C Shot, a cosmetic sold at discount stores B, since the first half of last year. It continues until this year. Since SNS promotion using influential influencers has a significant impact on sales, controversy is expected as direct promotion equivalent to advertising may violate advertising-related laws. In the advertising industry, marketing using influencers to increase trust and preference for products is evaluated as a practical method. This kind of marketing is a method of naturally exposing the images of individuals who have gained popularity through content unrelated to advertising directly using and evaluating a specific product through personal SNS channels in a format similar to the individual's existing content. However, even though it is a commercial advertisement in which an advertiser receives financial compensation, if the influencer's evaluation and recommendation of the product is perceived by consumers as an independent opinion unrelated to the advertiser and influences purchase choice, it may be considered an act that violates the law on fair labeling and advertising, etc. In particular, prescription drugs In some cases, unlike general medicines, advertising itself is completely prohibited. In addition, in addition to professionals such as pharmacists and doctors, even if the general public engages in an act that could be viewed as an advertisement through a specific media, they can be equally punished under the Food Labeling and Advertising Act, Articles 47 and 68 of the Pharmaceutical Affairs Act, and Article 78 of the Rules on the Safety of Medicines, etc. Both products, A Ointment and C Shot, have a history of being recommended and introduced in videos by many YouTubers as ‘good products for skin improvement,’ so they may be embroiled in controversy over violation of related laws. In the case of ‘Ointment A’, it was confirmed that a pharmacist personally came forward and recommended it as a product effective in skin regeneration. In order to check the actual sales status of these products, Joongbu Ilbo reporters covered pharmacies and C discount stores in Suwon, Ansan, Anyang, and Gunpo areas on the 20th, and store officials confirmed that the ‘stockout phenomenon’ regarding the products was continuing. A pharmacist working at a pharmacy in Suwon said, “We cannot sell Ointment A because we cannot find it.” “That’s about it,” he said. An official at the B Discount Store in Gunpo City responded to the C-Shot product by saying, "If you want to buy that product, you must go on 'Open Run'. It is a product that is sold out as soon as it comes in stock." There are even cases where many products are secured through hoarding and sold at a higher price than the original purchase price on a second-hand trading platform. Consumers have also appeared in the second-hand trading market to resell at a plus price (an act of setting a price higher than the existing price). Like this, unconsciously. Because consumers tend to believe in the ‘effectiveness’ of a certain product and purchase it based on recommendations from celebrities or influencers, it is defined as an advertisement and strictly regulated. Jang Hye-young, chief general counsel at Daeryun Law Firm (Limited), explained, “When explaining the reason for a product recommendation through media such as radio or television through video or other means, if it contains information or informs about the information (effectiveness) of the product, it is considered an advertisement.” Attorney Jang said, “In particular, under the Pharmaceutical Affairs Act, ‘Drugs and “Acts that entice consumers with regard to quasi-drugs are strictly prohibited,” he said. “Even if the person himself did not explicitly mention the effects or efficacy, there is a lot of room for punishment for advertisements that use methods that can be expressed implicitly.” He also pointed out, “Recently, there seems to be an increase in advertisements targeting health functional foods such as nutritional supplements or cosmetics through SNS.” “The act is a violation of the law and may lead to criminal punishment,” he emphasized.

"Since I have an acquired disability due to a medical accident, I have experienced both life as a non-disabled person and as a disabled person.. The difficulties experienced by people with disabilities have become more severe.. As a lawyer, when protecting the rights and interests of the weak, you must find a way within the legal framework.. As a lawyer specializing in compensation for damages, this is not just my difficulty, but the difficulty of many people., I felt that this was an area that needed institutional improvement.. Last year, the government announced 'my6Comprehensive policy plan for people with disabilities'What I suggested was reflected in. At this time, I felt great satisfaction in being able to impact the lives of the disabled and the underprivileged.. This led me to dream of becoming a politician.."- Proportionality of the people’s future 1It was bun. "I was not a recruited talent and applied directly as a proportional representative candidate.. 1Also, an acquaintance called me on the phone. 'I was elected, 1It's earned'I knew because you said. 'how did you know'Because I said so 'Live news coming out now'He said. In order to promote the rights and interests of the weak (at the party 1number) I think it's given to me and I'm going to try hard.."- Why is it the People Power Party and not the Democratic Party of Korea?.

I believe that a virtuous cycle can be created in which the lives of marginalized people, including the disabled, are improved as the market economy is revitalized and national economic power is strengthened.. So the value of compensation touched me more.. especially 'Personal budget system for the disabled'I agreed a lot with. Everyone has the freedom to choose according to their individual needs.. I hope the newly introduced system settles down well.."The personal budget system for the disabled is a system that supports disabled people to flexibly select services according to their needs, moving away from uniform service provision..

"In this regard, barriers to disability must be eliminated in medical practice. 'barrier free'I want to emphasize. Medical staff must fully explain medical procedures to people with developmental disabilities undergoing surgery, and it must be at a level that the person can understand.. If not, an explanation should have been provided to the guardian.. However, in this case, the aftereffects of the surgery that led to the death of the developmentally disabled person were not explained to the person at all.. People with developmental disabilities are often refused treatment.. I believe that everyone should receive medical services comfortably and that their fair rights should be guaranteed.."Choi, a legal expert, uses his strengths to 'empathy'class 'professionalism'chose. "I am also a disabled person and met various people through my hospital stay.. I was involved in a traffic accident while working as a damages attorney., medical accident, I met many people and their families who suffered acquired disabilities due to industrial accidents and other accidents.. I continued to communicate with disabled people and went to a welfare center., While receiving social security services, I continued to communicate with related workers.. In addition, because I have accumulated experience as a lawyer for a long time, I believe I can do a good job of facing reality accurately and finding legislative gaps.. Furthermore, I would like to present a reasonable alternative to solve the problem based on legal analysis.."Choi-elect is 22Even before the start of the National Assembly, various concerns are being raised about disability policies.. 1When asked about the bill, President-elect Choi said: "There are so many things I'm looking into, I don't know what comes first."as "'Disability Aging Policy' 'comprehensive access'Including 'Disability mainstreaming' I'm thinking mainly about.

In line with these changes, the perspective on disability must be reflected in all policies.. "If you think twice about how to make a product easy for the disabled or the weak to use, you can develop a product that everyone can use.. Taking electric vehicles as an example, it is very difficult for disabled people to charge their electric vehicles at charging stations.. If all electric vehicle charging stations are built but are not accessible to the disabled and have to be repaired later, it will cause a lot of inconvenience and a waste of budget.. This is why the perspective of people with disabilities must be included in the early stages of establishing systems and policies for new technologies.."President-elect Choi said that lawyer work is very similar to politics.. "It is very similar to politics in that it involves constant communication with clients and actively seeking solutions to problems.. However, there is a difference in that legal experts communicate with one client, while politicians meet with many citizens and the underprivileged and allow more people to benefit from the system.. I am not only a disabled person but also a woman, Elderly, multicultural, single parent, I believe that politics should resolve the difficulties faced by various socially disadvantaged people in our society, including young people preparing for self-reliance.. early elections, A handwritten pledge 'We will create a better future on the side of all those who are struggling.'was.

CEO Dong-il Park said, “Daeryun places providing customer-friendly legal services as a priority as a management value,” and added, “We opened many offices across the country to provide legal services similar to those in Seoul, even in underprivileged regions where there are no lawyers. This was a challenge to change the legal culture, and it was the foundation for Daeryun’s rapid growth.” Starting with the relocation of its headquarters in Yeouido, Daeryun plans to expand its domestic branch offices and expand into overseas markets such as Japan and the United States. CEO Park explained, "I believe there are no limits to the legal market and legal services. We have chosen to expand overseas to enhance the competitiveness of domestic law firms. Normally, law firms choose Southeast Asia to generate profits, but Daeryun has decided to expand into places with advanced legal systems rather than profits. Daeryun's legal services already have sufficient capabilities to be introduced to the world."

Operation of the largest office in the country enables real-time on-site input for local companies It looks like he's stepping forward. The number of small and medium-sized businesses that are having difficulty preparing due to cost and manpower shortages is also increasing. There are concerns about secondary damage to companies due to taking advantage of the confusion immediately after the revision of the law to set excessive fees by exploiting the urgent corporate situation or to irresponsible fees without any preparation for the revision. On the 8th, Daeryun Law Firm's Corporate Legal Group said, "We are operating a 'Serious Disaster Response TF Team' to suggest solutions to these problems." The strategy was to strengthen competitiveness in serious disaster cases by continuously conducting analysis of and practical cases and dispatching response teams directly to accident sites. The serious accident response TF team is comprised of labor-specialized lawyers within the corporate legal group, and includes experts such as labor attorneys and labor experts in addition to lawyers. We are committed to responding to cases quickly through collaboration with experts in each field. In cases where death occurs due to an industrial accident, in practice, labor inspectors and judicial police officers conduct separate investigations using different applicable laws. In particular, starting this year, the scope of application of Article 6 (Punishment Provisions for Business Owners or Managers) and Article 7 (Double Punishment Provisions) of the Act on Punishment for Serious Accidents has been expanded, so additional crimes may be added. A Daeryun official explained, "As a result, the importance of the Serious Accident Response TF Team, which can respond to both the Ministry of Employment and Labor and the police investigative authorities, is increasing." Daeryun's position is that it will make every effort to respond before and after the accident. The plan is to reduce the possibility of legal disputes by correcting issues with a high risk of illegality in a timely manner through corporate legal advice and reviewing contracts. Even if an unavoidable accident occurs, a branch located nearby will take the lead on the scene and respond immediately. In particular, it is expected to quickly respond to the initial response by organically collaborating with the corporate legal group, which is the control tower. As the golden time is important, it is also worth noting that the system has been reorganized to enable real-time response. The Serious Accident Response TF Team preemptively responds to the Ministry of Labor's investigation following an accident at the national branch level. Real-time updates are made possible by communication through an advanced system. The key is to provide close support from the investigation stage. We are also accelerating the conclusion of a business agreement (MOU) related to serious disasters. Through the agreement, we will cooperate with companies subject to the Severe Accident Punishment Act, including providing legal advice and holding seminars for initial response to serious disasters. Currently, agreements have been signed with a number of companies and organizations, including Hiple Co., Ltd., Gokwang Industry Co., Ltd., and Hadong Bit Dream Headquarters of Korea Southern Power Co., Ltd. Daeryun Kim Kuk-il, CEO of Daeryun, said, "Whether or not there is a violation of the Serious Accident Punishment Act depends on the initial response. Since the target has also been expanded, the serious disaster regulation will now be applied to more workplaces." He added, "As it is still in the early stages of enforcement of the law, a professional response team with extensive practical experience in related cases will quickly diagnose and analyze the incident. “At Daeryun, the corporate legal group will become the control tower and cooperate organically with each branch,” he said.

The second division of the Supreme Court (Justice Dong-won Lee, presiding judge) ruled on March 12 that Hyundai Steel In the appeal trial (2019Da28966, etc.) of a lawsuit filed against Hyundai Steel by 52 workers from an in-house partner company, saying, "Please express your intention to hire them and pay damages equivalent to the difference in wages received by Hyundai Steel's regular workers," it was stated that "41 of the plaintiffs, excluding 11, and the defendant were in a worker dispatch relationship," and "Hyundai Steel expressed its intention to hire these 41 people. However, with regard to the 11 workers who performed level 0 mechanical and electrical maintenance work and utility facility maintenance and management work, the lower court ruled that the worker was dispatched, saying, "It is difficult to conclude that they were in a worker dispatch relationship under direction and orders from the defendant," and remanded the case to the Gwangju High Court. The Supreme Court said, "The original court said, It was determined that the fact that the plaintiffs (41 people) were employed by the defendant's in-house partner company and performed the support process work required for the production of cold-rolled steel sheets, etc., or the production process of lightweight vehicle products at the defendant's Suncheon plant during the period or time that constitutes the requirement for the employment obligation claimed by the plaintiffs constitutes a worker dispatch relationship under direction and orders from the defendant." "The lower court's judgment was justified, and there were errors such as misunderstanding the legal principles regarding worker dispatch. Quoting the original trial, the Supreme Court stated, "It appears that the workers of the in-house partner companies, including the plaintiffs, received instructions or supervision from the defendant regarding work performance while performing relatively simple and repetitive work in processes that can be seen as part of the production process of cold-rolled steel sheets at the defendant's Suncheon plant. It was stated that "work could not be performed by violating or arbitrarily changing the work method, work order, work content, work speed, or work location." In addition, "the work performed by the workers of the in-house partner company needs to be done in conjunction with the flow of the production process, such as cold-rolled steel sheets at the Suncheon plant, and the work hours and rest times of the workers of the in-house partner company are set the same as those of the defendant's workers, and the defendant's workers and the in-house partner company for each process. “The workers can be assessed as virtually forming a single work group,” he said, adding, “The defendant appears to have exerted significant influence over the personnel and attendance status of the workers of the in-house partner company. Even in cases where the in-house partner company closes down and a new in-house partner company signs a contract and performs the work, it is difficult to say that the in-house partner company actually exercised its right to assign work to its workers by succeeding the existing workers and carrying out the existing work without changing the actual work details.” According to the appellate court, the in-house partner companies only operated at the Suncheon plant without the expertise and technical skills for the relevant contract work, or the physical facilities and fixed assets necessary to perform the work, and most of them were established for the service contract with Hyundai Steel, but closed down immediately after the contract was terminated. In the appellate trial, attorney Ki-deok Kim and Daeryun Law Firm represented the plaintiffs. Hyundai Steel was represented by Jipyong Law Firm.

It is difficult to recognize the ‘qualification as a plaintiff’ from the Korean Association of Professors. Police summon Su-ho, Chairman Su-ho, as suspect. Chairman Joo, “They do not acknowledge the facts of the charges.” The police have begun a full-scale investigation into complaints and accusations related to the Korean Medical Association. The police will begin summonsing former and current executives of the Korean Medical Association, while also verifying the truth of the suspicion that pharmaceutical company employees were forcibly mobilized to the Korean Medical Association rally. While medical school professors have also filed a cancellation lawsuit opposing the government's expansion of medical schools, legal experts say there is a high possibility that this lawsuit will be dismissed without the court's decision. On the 6th, the Public Crimes Investigation Unit of the Seoul Metropolitan Police Agency summoned Su-ho Joo, Chairman of the Media and Public Relations Committee of the Emergency Response Committee of the Medical Association, as a suspect and investigated whether he instigated or aided the group actions of medical residents. Chairman Joo, who came out after about 10 hours of police interrogation, said, “I said I did not admit to the allegations,” and “I was asked about my relationship with the (Korean Medical Association) officials who were summoned with me and the suspicions in general.” Previously, Chairman Joo held a press conference before entering the public crime investigation unit and said, “Because I have never instigated (the mass resignation of majors), the crime of instigation is not established,” and “The MZ generation (born in the early 1980s to early 2000s) is a new generation. We do not follow our seniors just because they do this or that.” Starting with Chairman Joo, the police plan to sequentially investigate former and current executives of the Korean Medical Association who were reported by the Ministry of Health and Welfare. Separately from this, an investigation into the ‘suspicion of mobilizing pharmaceutical company employees to rally’ is expected to begin soon. The day before, the Korean Medical Association filed a complaint against Mr. A, whose name is unknown, to the Seoul Metropolitan Government on charges of violating the Information and Communications Network Act (defamation of character). In response to the government's judicial action, representatives of the professor councils of 33 medical schools across the country filed a lawsuit with the Seoul Administrative Court the day before against the Minister of Health and Welfare and the Ministry of Education to cancel the increase in medical schools by 2,000 students for the 2025 school year. An application for a temporary injunction was also filed to suspend execution until the results of the main lawsuit are announced. The Faculty Council largely claims that the subject, procedure, and contents of the medical school increase are illegal. First, the Minister of Health and Welfare does not have the authority to determine university admission quota under the Higher Education Act, but he increased the quota. In addition, it is claimed that the procedure for rationally adjusting the interests of stakeholders was omitted, and the content was not based on objective and fair evidence in the medical field. Contrary to the claims of medical school professors, the legal community agreed that it is difficult for the government's expansion of medical school quota to become an administrative disposition subject to cancellation lawsuits. According to precedent, administrative disposition must be ‘an exercise of public power by an administrative agency that directly affects the rights and obligations of the people by enforcing laws on specific facts.’ However, the government’s policy to expand the quota is still in the announcement or planning stage, so it does not have ‘administrative disposition.’ Questions are also raised about whether the Faculty Council is suitable as a plaintiff. Attorney Choi Hyeon-deok (Daeryun Law Firm) said, “The plaintiff in the cancellation lawsuit must be a person who is directly affected by the rights and obligations, but it is difficult to see that a medical school professor and the increase in medical schools have this kind of relationship.” [View full article] Medical school professors file lawsuit against government to cancel staff increase... What is the issue? [‘Medical crisis’ emergency] Is it possible to ‘cancel the increase in medical schools’ raised by professors? “There is a high possibility of rejection.” 2026-05-04T11:05:57.950Z https://www.daeryunlaw.com/en/broadcast/2811 SEOUL, South Korea (AP) — South Korea’s government is pressing ahead with its vow to suspend the licenses of thousands of junior doctors who ignore its repeated demands to end their collective walkouts. Nearly 9,000 out of the country’s 13,000 medical interns and residents have been refusing to work for about two weeks to protest a government plan to increase South Korea’s medical school admission quota by about two thirds. Here are some questions and answers about what’s next in the strike: HOW DOES THE SUSPENSION WORK?After their walkouts caused hundreds of surgeries and other treatments to be canceled, the government ordered the junior doctors to return to work by Feb. 29 or face license suspensions and possible legal charges. Most of them missed the deadline. On Monday, the government dispatched officials to about 50 hospitals to formally confirm the absence of striking doctors, before informing them of their license suspensions and giving them a chance to respond. Vice Health Minister Park Min-soo said the doctors face a minimum three-month suspension. Suspension records will leave them facing more than one year of delay in getting licenses for specialists and further barriers in landing jobs, Park said. Park suggested it would take weeks to complete procedures for suspending licenses. Once it’s done, some striking doctors will likely respond with legal action. Hyeondeok Choi, partner at the law firm Daeryun that specializes in medical law, said it would be “impossible” for the government to suspend the licenses of all the 9,000 doctors. He said the government would likely target less than 100 of the leading strikers. The Korea Medical Association, which represents 140,000 doctors in South Korea, said it supports the junior doctors’ walkouts. Joo Sooho, a spokesperson at the KMA’s emergency committee, said Monday that senior doctors are considering economic support for the strikers if their licenses are suspended. WHAT OTHER STEPS THE STRIKERS CAN FACE?South Korea’s medical law says doctors who refuse the government’s back-to-work order can face up to three years in prison or a 30 million won ($22,480) fine, as well as up to one year of license suspensions. Those sent to prison or given even suspended prison sentences automatically lose their licenses. The Health Ministry can file complaints with police, who then investigate and hand the case to prosecutors for a possible indictment, according to Choi, the law firm partner. Joo said the Korea Medical Association will provide lawyers to the striking doctors if they are summoned by police or prosecutors. South Korean police said they are investigating five senior members of the Korea Medical Association, after the Health Ministry filed complaints against them for allegedly inciting and abetting the junior doctors’ walkouts. WHAT DO PEOPLE SAY?The doctors’ strikes have so far failed to generate public support, with a survey showing about 80% backing the government’s school enrollment plan. The government says South Korea urgently needs more doctors to deal with a rapidly aging population. Many doctors say a too-steep increase in the number of students would eventually result in undermining medical service. Some critics say doctors, one of the highest-paid professions in South Korea, worry about losing their income. Lee Yeonha, 40, said the striking doctors were “too selfish” and a three-month license suspension is too little. “I wish the government would take more powerful legal action to get the doctors to fear that they may not be able to work as doctors in this country,” Lee said. Another Seoul resident, Sunny Shin, supports the arguments by doctors that the government must first resolve fundamental problems such as a lack of medical liability protection and a shortage of doctors in key yet low-paying specialties such as pediatrics and emergency departments. “As long as the crucial sector doctors are likely to be embroiled in lawsuits and still not highly paid, I cannot blame them for protesting against the government labeling them as privileged people neglecting their duties as doctors,” Shin said. [Translation] Seoul, South Korea (AP) — The South Korean government is going ahead with its pledge to suspend the licenses of thousands of junior doctors who have ignored repeated calls to end mass strikes. About 9,000 of the 13,000 medical school residents in Korea have refused to go to work for about two weeks to protest the government's plan to increase the number of students admitted to Korea's medical schools by about two-thirds. Here are some questions and answers about the next steps in the strike. How does the suspension work? After hundreds of surgeries and other treatments were canceled due to the strike, the government ordered junior doctors to return to work by February 29. Failure to do so may result in your license being suspended and legal charges being filed. Most missed the deadline.The government dispatched civil servants to about 50 hospitals on Monday to officially confirm that there was no intention to strike, notified them of the suspension of their licenses, and gave them an opportunity to respond. Vice Minister of Health and Welfare Park Min-soo said the doctors would be suspended for at least three months. A record of suspension would delay obtaining professional certification by more than a year and create further barriers to employment, Park said. Park suggested it would take several weeks to complete the license suspension process. Once completed, some striking doctors will likely respond with legal action. Choi Hyeon-deok, a partner at Daeryun, a law firm specializing in medical law, said it was “impossible” for the government to suspend the licenses of all 9,000 doctors.

The Korean Medical Association, which represents 140,000 doctors in Korea, said it supports the strike by junior doctors. Joo Su-ho, spokesman for the Korean Medical Association's emergency response headquarters, said Monday that senior doctors were considering providing financial support to strikers if their licenses are suspended. What other steps might strikers face? Under South Korea's medical law, doctors who refuse government orders to return to work can face up to three years in prison, a fine of 30 million won ($22,480) and a license suspension of up to a year. Anyone who is incarcerated or even sentenced to probation automatically loses their license. According to lawyer Choi of the law firm, the Ministry of Health can file a complaint with the police and then the police can investigate the case and then hand it over to the prosecution for possible prosecution. Joo said the Korean Medical Association will provide lawyers to striking doctors if they are summoned by police or prosecutors. The police announced that they are investigating five high-ranking executives of the Korean Medical Association who were accused by the Ministry of Health and Welfare of inciting and abetting a strike by junior doctors. What are people saying? The doctors' strike has so far failed to garner public support, with surveys showing around 80% support the government's school enrollment plan. The government said the country urgently needs more doctors to cope with its rapidly aging population.

Some critics say doctors, one of the country's highest-paid professions, are worried about loss of income. Yeonha Lee (40) said that the striking doctors were “too selfish” and that the three-month license suspension was too little. Mr. Lee said, “I wish the government would take stronger legal measures so that doctors can feel the fear that they may not be able to practice as doctors in this country.” Another Seoul resident, Sunny Shin, supports the doctors' argument that the government must first address fundamental problems such as lack of medical liability protection and a shortage of doctors in key but low-paying specialties such as pediatrics and emergency rooms. “As long as doctors in critical fields are likely to be embroiled in lawsuits and still do not receive high salaries, we cannot blame them for protesting against the government labeling them as a privileged class who neglect their duties as doctors,” Shin said.

Ahead of this month's regular general shareholders' meeting, companies are more active than ever in recruiting 'professional outside directors' who are highly related to the businesses they run. As securing early and leading technologies and securing new sources of business has become a desperate task for companies, it appears to be a strategy to receive help in promoting main businesses and future new businesses through them. According to the industry on the 3rd, major domestic companies such as Samsung Electronics, Hyundai Motor Company, POSCO, and HD Hyundai are appointing outside directors who are closely related to new business areas. Companies plan to hold a regular shareholders' meeting within March at the latest to raise the agenda for the appointment of outside directors. First, Samsung Electronics is preparing to appoint Cho Hye-kyung, a professor in the AI ​​Application Department at Hansung University, as an outside director. Professor Cho is an AI and robotics expert who is a direct junior of Samsung Electronics Device Solutions (DS) President Kyehyun Gye in the Department of Control and Measurement Engineering at Seoul National University and served as president of the Korean Society of Robotics. As Samsung Electronics has recently accelerated the development of its AI and robot business, Professor Cho's appointment shows Samsung Electronics' commitment to new future businesses. Hyundai Motor Company will reappoint Jiyoon Lee, a professor in the Department of Aeronautics and Astronautics at KAIST, who was appointed as the first female outside director in 2021. Professor Lee is an expert in intelligent transportation systems and autonomous unmanned systems applied to future mobility, such as urban air transportation (UAM) and future air transportation (AAM), which are being commercialized by Hyundai Motor Company. As Hyundai Motor Company continues to expand its mobility area, it is expected to serve as an advisor for new businesses. Hyundai Mobis recommended Keith Witek (57), Chief Operating Officer (COO) of ‘Tenstorent’, an artificial intelligence (AI) semiconductor startup, as an outside director candidate. Keith Wittek served as a vice president at semiconductor company AMD, an R&D director at Tesla, and an advisory member at SiFive, a RISC-V-based semiconductor design company. In a recent interview, he said, “Chiplet technology will emerge as a core technology in the future semiconductor market and will gradually become popular.” As Hyundai Motor Company is active in 'Chip to Factory', which applies semiconductors to automobiles, the company explains that he, who held a key position at Tesla, where he directly designed semiconductors and even traded directly with foundries, is capable of providing sufficient management advice in this field. POSCO Holdings plans to appoint Park Sung-wook, former vice chairman of SK Hynix, as an outside director. A former engineer, he is a materials industry expert who has led R&D expertise and technological innovation in the semiconductor industry. He joined the Hyundai Electronics Industrial Research Institute and served as head of the Hynix Semiconductor Research Center and as head of research, development and manufacturing (CTO) at SK Hynix. As POSCO Group and SK Group are currently developing various businesses in the secondary battery and recycling fields, which are considered future new growth engines, former Vice Chairman Park is expected to serve as a bridge for cooperation between the two groups. LX Semicon appointed Kim Nam-soo, a professor of electrical and information engineering at Seoul National University, and Han Sang-beom, former CEO of LG Display, as new outside directors. Professor Namsoo Kim is an electrical and electronic engineering expert who has been conducting various research activities in the fields of artificial intelligence and signal processing. He also has experience working as a professional researcher at the Samsung Advanced Institute of Technology, the central research center of Samsung Electronics, for five years since 1993. Former CEO Han Sang-beom is a person who has been active in the semiconductor/display field for nearly 40 years and has accumulated unrivaled expertise and experience in related fields such as development, process, production, and equipment development. As the company's performance has been on the decline in recent years, there is an interpretation that the appointment of an expert is intended to help it rebound. The recruitment of professional outside directors by companies is receiving positive reviews as it contrasts with the outside directors of POSCO Holdings, who were recently booked on charges of breach of trust and violation of the Anti-Corruption Act due to their luxurious board of directors. Ji Min-hee, a corporate lawyer, said, “If experts familiar with new businesses are appointed, they will be able to respond quickly to trends and easily secure a vision for the future. Appointing outside directors with experts specialized in future businesses is a necessary strategy for companies.” Lee Jong-woo, a professor of business administration at Ajou University, said, “As the domestic industry is at a time when change is needed, it is meaningful to appoint outside directors with expertise in future business. It is also the job of outside directors to focus on their respective roles and not create problems. They must fulfill their role as outside directors to help the company’s management.” [View full article] - The era of 'professional outside directors'... A 'new business' for the company is visible to them. 2026-05-08T12:20:57.554Z https://www.daeryunlaw.com/en/broadcast/2807 2003It was a year. When I started my Maple World adventure in Maple Story. 1,000 Won and 5,000 Won, your hard-earned pocket money goes to Maple Story Cash Shop.(In-game paid item seller)went straight to. 20years have passed 2023year christmas, Still shopping at the cash shop. Probability items in Maple Story 'cube'purchased. from where you sit 12My monthly salary almost disappeared. (Why do beautiful things disappear so easily?). one month later, 13There was news that sales of cube items with a 10-year history were discontinued.. 2024year 1month 3Japan Fair Trade Commission issues corrective order to Nexon 116This was the aftermath of a fine worth hundreds of millions of won..According to the Fair Trade Commission, Nexon violated the e-commerce law in selling cube items.. Electronic Commerce Act Article21pharmacy1antithesis1The law prohibits e-commerce business operators from informing consumers of false or exaggerated facts or using deceptive methods to lure consumers.. Probability items are a type of item., performance, Effects are determined by chance factors., The Fair Trade Commission considered that changing the probability of random items could have a significant impact on consumers' purchase choices..Nexon 2010since 2016Even though Cube's probability structure was changed to be unfavorable to buyers, the fact that this fact was not notified was used in a deceptive way to lure Cube buyers, thereby violating the Electronic Commerce Act..The specific target of violation is (1) Cube’s popular options and Black Cube(a type of cube) Actions that lower the probability of appearance(below 'act of lowering probability')and (2) Duplicate appearance of popular options(so-called 'Bobobo' etc.) probability 0%The act of changing to(below 'Appearance restriction act')am.Accordingly, Nexon, They argued that the odds were adjusted for the purpose of improving game balance, and that the Fair Trade Commission judged the matter as a violation at a time when it was not legally required to disclose the odds, and claimed the unfairness of the Fair Trade Commission's judgment.. The Fair Trade Commission rebutted that it was taking issue with the fact that the probability was lowered to the consumer's disadvantage but was not notified, and that it had nothing to do with the legal obligation to disclose the probability itself.. Nexon and the Fair Trade Commission are expected to continue their battle for the time being..There appears to be no excuse for the act of restricting appearance, but there is room for doubt in the Fair Trade Commission's judgment for the act of reducing probability.. 2016Although there was no legal obligation or related authoritative interpretation to disclose the probability of random items until 2018, it is necessary to examine whether the probability or its change at the time was naturally recognized as information subject to disclosure under the Electronic Commerce Act without any room for interpretation..2000Until the early 1990s, many online games operated on a flat-rate basis., 2001In 1998, Nexon created a successful profit model by allowing users to use the game for free but attempting a partial fee system that sells paid items within the game.. 2004In Maple Story in Japan, 'Gachapo Ticket'As the probability-type item gained sensational popularity, it was later officially introduced into Maple Story in Korea.. like that 2010In 2008, the cube, a random item, appeared and accounted for the highest percentage of Maple Story sales..In this situation, at the time, the probability of random items was an essential part of the fun of the game and 'balance(balance)'It was considered a trade secret that had to be studied at considerable cost..Balance improvement work(or 'balance patch')Same as Maple Story MMORPG The game runs long(long-run)It is a key element to. Balance is a character job, equipment, It refers to the balance between elements that appear in the game, such as difficulty level.. Maple Story is MMORPGAs a result, users form a kind of small-scale society within the game and compete with each other for character specifications, creating a gap between the rich and the poor within the game..When the balance is lost(or if it collapses) Widening gap between rich and poor, Game difficulty imbalances can cause a loss of user motivation, cause existing users to stop using the game, and lead to a decrease in the influx of new users, which directly affects the profits of game companies..It is no exaggeration to say that the rise and fall of a game depends on balance patches.. MapleStory has been periodically working on balance improvements.. especially 2010year 7month character occupation, nurturing structure, Large-scale update with improvements in difficulty, etc.(so-called 'big bang patch')Since the launch, new jobs have been created several times, content has been expanded, and balance improvement work has been intensively continued as a follow-up work.. In this context, changing the cube's probability was part of a balance patch..2017Discussions about the speculative nature of probability-type items began to surface around 2018.. 2017year, The Chinese government has legally mandated the disclosure of detailed information on probability items..Korea Game Industry Association 2015In 2018, the probability disclosure method was disclosed by section as a self-regulation guideline for random items.(For example, the probability is very low, lowness, Classified as normal)It was presented as, 2017In 2018, the guidelines were changed to disclose specific probabilities.. 2018It was not until 2018 that the Fair Trade Commission announced that the Nexon-run 'Sudden Attack' It was determined that non-disclosure of certain random items in the game was a violation of the Electronic Commerce Act..Considering the circumstances of the time, the probability of random items was interpreted as a trade secret, and the change was seen as part of a balance patch.. It may be a hasty conclusion to view failure to notify changes in probability items as a direct violation of the Electronic Commerce Act..Of course, Nexon changing the cube probability without notice may cause moral outrage among users.. The Fair Trade Commission may have taken action against Nexon in consideration of the recently diminishing trust relationship between game companies, including Nexon, and users.. Nevertheless, caution must be exercised in retroactive dispositions and regulations.. Extensive regulations beyond the predictable range undermine legal stability and cause a contraction of the gaming industry market.. We look forward to a three-dimensional discussion on sanctions for probability-lowering activities in the future..one side, The act of restricting appearance appears to be a violation of the Electronic Commerce Act even when considering the timing of the action and game balance.. As a cube buyer, you can naturally expect that certain combinations of options, including duplicate appearances of popular options, will occur in many cases., The overlapping appearance of popular options is likely to be one of the important Cube purchase incentives for Cube buyers as ordinary consumers with average transaction experience and attention.. Therefore, since this change in probability structure is information that has an important impact on purchase choice, it is inevitable that Nexon should have notified buyers of this..As a Maple Story user before being a corporate lawyer, I welcome the fact that the Fair Trade Commission has taken up the sword to protect the rights and interests of users.. The contraction of the gaming industry market is not welcome.. Perhaps the Fair Trade Commission's regulations also need a balance patch.. In any case, we hope that this incident can be used as an opportunity to re-establish a relationship of trust between Maple Story users and Nexon..

About 9,000 medical interns and residents have stayed off the job since early last week to protest a government plan to increase medical school admissions by about 65%. The walkouts have severely hurt the operations of their hospitals, with numerous cancellations of surgeries and other treatments. Government officials say adding more doctors is necessary to deal with South Korea’s rapidly aging population. The country’s current doctor-to-patient ratio is among the lowest in the developed world. The strikers say universities can’t handle so many new students and argue the plan would not resolve a chronic shortage of doctors in some key but low-paying areas like pediatrics and emergency departments. Vice Health Minister Park Min-soo said during a televised briefing Monday that the government won’t seek any disciplinary action againt striking doctors if they return to work by Thursday. “We want them to return to work by the end of this month, Feb. 29. If they return to the hospitals they had left by then, we won’t hold them responsible” for any damage caused by their walkouts, Park said. “It’s not too late. Please, return to patients immediately.” But he said those who don’t meet the deadline will be punished with a minimum three-month suspension of their medical licenses and face further legal steps such as investigations and possible indictments. Under South Korea’s medical law, the government can issue back-to-work orders to doctors and other medical personnel when it sees grave risks to public health. Refusing to abide by such an order can bring suspensions of their licenses and up to three years in prison or a 30 million won ($22,480) fine. Those who receive prison sentences would be stripped of their medical licenses. Hyeondeok Choi, a partner at the law firm Daeryun which specializes in medical law, said it’s highly unlikely the government will suspend the licenses of all doctors on strike, as that would cause “an enormous medical vacuum.” Other observers said authorities would likely punish strike leaders. There are about 13,000 medical interns and residents in South Korea, most of them working and training at 100 hospitals. They typically assist senior doctors during surgeries and deal with inpatients. They represent about 30% to 40% of total doctors at some major hospitals. The Korea Medical Association, which represents about 140,000 doctors, has said it supports the striking doctors but hasn’t determined whether to join the trainee doctors’ walkouts. Senior doctors have held a series of rallies voicing opposition to the government’s plan in recent days. Earlier this month, the government announced universities would admit 2,000 more medical students starting next year, from the current 3,058. The government says it aims to add up to 10,000 doctors by 2035. Striking doctors have said they worry doctors faced with increased competition would engage in overtreatment, burdening public medical expenses. A public survey showed that about 80% of South Koreans back the plan. Critics suspect doctors, one of the best-paid professions in South Korea, oppose the recruitment plan because they worry they would face greater competition and lower incomes. Park said the country’s medical services for emergency and critical patients remain stable, with public medical facilities extending their working hours and military hospitals opening emergency rooms to ordinary patients. But local media reported that an octogenarian suffering a cardiac arrest was declared dead last Friday after seven hospitals turned her away citing a lack of medical staff or other reasons likely related to the walkouts. Hwang Byung-tae, a 55-year-old laryngeal cancer patient, said he has regularly visited a Seoul hospital for treatment for four years. Last week, he said he had to leave the hospital without receiving an anti-cancer injection because of the walkouts. Hwang accused both the government and doctors of holding the lives of patients hostage. “It’s patients like me who end up suffering and dying, not them,” Hwang said. SEOUL, South Korea (AP) — South Korea's junior doctors will have their medical licenses suspended and prosecuted within four days if they try to end their strike, the government said Monday.

"We hope they will return to work by the end of this month, February 29," Park said. “Even if you return to the hospital where you were discharged until then, you will not be held responsible for any damage caused by the strike,” he said. But he said those who don't meet the deadline will have their medical license suspended for at least three months and face further legal action, including investigation and prosecution. Under South Korea's medical law, the government can order doctors and other medical personnel to return to work if it determines there is a serious risk to public health. Failure to comply with such orders could result in license suspension, up to three years in prison, or a fine of 30 million won ($22,480). Anyone sentenced to prison will have their medical license revoked. Choi Hyeon-deok, a lawyer at Daeryun, a law firm specializing in medical law, said it is highly unlikely that the government will suspend the licenses of all striking doctors.

A comprehensive approach that considers various parties, including the disabled, is needed in all areas, including medical care and mobility rights. As new technologies accelerate, barrier-free must also be considered. 2022Last month, a lawsuit seeking compensation for a developmentally disabled person who died after undergoing surgery for an ankle fracture was filed. 12Work has begun. The issue raised at the first hearing was the hospital's provision for the disabled. ‘Duty to explain’ It's a range. Accordingly, he served as legal representative for the bereaved family., Attorney Choi Bo-yoon, who also has a physical disability,(Daeryun Law Firm)We heard about the core of the incident and the issues our society should be concerned about.. The crux of the case is ‘barrier free’Attorney Choi, who was in charge of the defense, was asked about the progress of the lawsuit. ‘barrier free’The biggest topic in the disability world was brought up first.. The purpose is literally to eliminate barriers to disability in medical care as well.. he is “One of the key points of the case was that the medical staff omitted the explanation of the aftereffects that could lead to death and only explained related details to the patient with severe developmental disabilities and obtained signatures. ‘Duty to explain’ Whether it constitutes a violation”said. According to the actual incident overview, the patient AHe has a severe developmental disability and is limited in normal communication.. Nevertheless, the medical staff in charge of the surgery were not the guardians. AAfter explaining the ankle fracture surgery, consent was obtained only from Mr.. In this process AThe cause of Mr.'s death, Aftereffects of surgery ‘embolism’No explanation was given. In relation to this, Attorney Choi said: “medical law24condolences2(Description of medical practice)Based on this, in the case of a patient without medical capacity, a doctor must explain medical procedures to a legal representative., There is no clear information on what to do in cases where the doctor lacks ability or the patient has a developmental disability.”as “Since the obligation to explain is not clear, it is important how the court interprets the provision.”explained. mudfish “At the first hearing, the court decided whether there was medical negligence in the victim's death., (emotion) Waiting for a reply”He said he plans to take follow-up action depending on the appraiser's appraisal results.“He elaborated:. As there are ambiguous parts of the law, we must check the appraisal results based on the opinions and knowledge of experts in the relevant field., This means establishing a defense strategy for problems in the medical staff's obligation to explain and other medical negligence.. Attorney Choi believes that not only disabled people but also non-disabled people can suffer damage due to insufficient explanations or poor treatment by medical staff, so it would be meaningful if the precedent in this case is established as a legal standard in the future.”as, The meaning of this incident was explained.. barrier free, In the area of ​​comprehensive access, lawyer Choi Choi also became disabled due to a medical accident., against the hospital 6Based on our experience in obtaining a winning verdict after years of litigation, we have been carrying out various damages lawsuits to date.. In this process, difficulties caused by various disabilities are faced..I experienced it indirectly, It is said that he also developed a deep interest in policy.. We also talked about disability issues and issues of interest in our society that Attorney Choi recently addressed.. Among today's disabled population 90%There are many cases where people become disabled for various reasons, not just medical accidents, to the extent that they are called acquired disabilities.. In this trend, Attorney Choi said that barrier-free is especially ‘comprehensive access’ Selected as important in the area. Attorney Choi “As new technologies continue to develop in the future, I, I believe that technology that meets individual needs should be developed for everyone, regardless of whether they are disabled or not.”saying, “In particular, consideration of disability must be given importance from the early stage of establishing a system in the development of technology and introduction of policies.”He emphasized. Attorney Choi ‘20232018 International Assistive Technology Device Symposium’, ‘AI Assistive technology for the disabled using technology: Tasks toward innovation and challenge’I participated as a discussant in, He also served on the Special Committee on Promotion of Convenience in Mobility for Persons with Disabilities under the National Integration Committee under the President.. In these activities, Attorney Choi ‘comprehensive approach’emphasize. Ultimately, accessibility is needed for everyone, not just for the disabled.. When we think of accessibility, we can think of the struggle for mobility rights for the disabled by the National Solidarity for the Elimination of Discrimination against Persons with Disabilities, which is currently a big issue in our society.. Attorney Choi said that even in the case of the subway, if accessibility for the disabled had been considered from the initial design stage, this situation would not have come to this.. Attorney Choi “personal mobility(personal mobility, personal mobility device), SDV(Software Defined Vehicle, A car that controls and manages hardware through software) New technologies for mobile devices are accelerating., The travel system should not be centered around the city, and careful policies are needed to prevent gaps that make it difficult to move between regions other than the city.”as, “Additionally, in this situation, transportation methods that can meet the needs of various parties, including the disabled, must be deployed.”He emphasized. And in the end, you really need information about the destination you want to move to., Right to access information AI Groundbreaking changes are expected with the introduction of technology., This part also requires reflection of the characteristics and desires of various parties, including the disabled, from the initial stage.. Our country still lacks a rights guarantee system based on comprehensive access rights., EUJust as the Accessibility Center was established in , it was pointed out that our country also needs changes in laws and policies in line with global changes and levels.. Lastly, Attorney Choi “now 100three eras, These days, called the era of super-aging, many people are disabled or have difficulty moving, so accessibility must always be emphasized in the future.”saying “So, in the future, it would be good to consider comprehensive accessibility when developing technology in any area, including mobility rights.”said.

The Ministry of Health and Welfare announced that as of 10 p.m. on the 21st, 9,275 residents at 100 teaching hospitals across the country had submitted their resignations. Of these, 87% were confirmed to have actually been absent from work. As the mass resignation of medical residents led to a medical vacuum, cases of damage to patients are coming out one after another as feared. On the 21st alone, there were 57 reports received at the government's Doctors' Collective Action Damage Reporting and Support Center. In detail, there were 44 cases of delayed surgery, 6 cases of refusal of treatment, 5 cases of cancellation of medical appointments, and 2 cases of delayed hospitalization. There were cases in which hospitalization was delayed even though the child's surgery was scheduled a year ago and the guardian took leave from work. It is also expected that patients who have experienced inconveniences such as delayed treatment or surgery may file a medical lawsuit. If the surgery or treatment is canceled due to collective action by residents and the patient suffers damage, the relevant resident or hospital can be held liable for medical malpractice damages. In fact, in 2004, a patient died after complaining of abdominal pain after receiving a cholangiopancreatography recommended by the hospital. The bereaved family filed a lawsuit for medical accident damages, and the court ruled for compensation. It pointed out that residents were on strike due to the division of medicine at the time, and ruled that the hospital was responsible for compensation for failing to fulfill its obligation to explain. However, the legal opinion is that it is very difficult to prove that damage was caused by group action in medical accident damages. Attorney Choi Hyun-deok of Daeryun Law Firm (Limited) said, “Scheduled surgery or treatment “If the schedule is unilaterally changed or delayed without the patient’s consent, you can claim compensation for medical malpractice damages,” he said. “It is difficult to prove that there is a causal relationship between the resident’s personal misconduct and the patient’s deterioration in health.” Last year, the hospital recommended pin removal for patients who underwent pin fixation surgery one month after surgery, but there were cases where serious disabilities such as delayed union and malunion of the affected area occurred after removal. The court ruled that removal surgery was not allowed until one year later. It was possible, but the ruling ruled that the attending physician violated the duty of care and must pay the medical accident damages claim. Attorney Choi explained, “We must clearly determine who is responsible based on evidence such as medical treatment confirmation, detailed surgical fee statements, and post-surgery photos.” Meanwhile, in response to the mass resignation of residents, the government inspected 10 training hospital sites and issued a start-of-duty order to residents who were found to have not shown up at their workplace for a long period of time. has been issued. A 'prior notice of administrative action to suspend a doctor's license' will be sent to residents who do not return despite repeated issuance of orders to resume work. The Emergency Response Committee of the Korean Medical Association said, "Residents who resigned of their own free will have exercised their basic rights guaranteed by the Constitution," and "the government is encouraging medical workers who have resigned and are unemployed to work in violation of the Labor Standards Act and the Medical Service Act." Regarding this, Attorney Choi pointed out, “If there is no clear evidence of prior collusion, it is impossible to punish individual resignations alone,” and “It is difficult to punish failure to extend individual contracts as a collective action if there is no circumstances of collusion.” [View full article] - Damage reports continue due to medical gaps...

Although there was a risk of retirement and disciplinary action, prosecution was suspended. In the process of carrying out a support project to encourage farmers to produce crops in a local government, it was revealed that residents received subsidies illegally by deceiving public officials. Despite active administration for the benefit of residents, the government officials in charge were sent to the prosecution due to the farmers' misconduct. According to the incident, when the subsidy support project was passed, an organization voluntarily formed by all farmers growing specific crops became a subsidy recipient. It was confirmed. Afterwards, as the project was changed at the request of residents, the target and method of payment were changed, and the subsidy provider was changed from a farmer organization to an individual business. Mr. A, the public official in charge of the support project, was faced with the task of reviewing the appropriateness of subsidy payments to a number of individual businesses as progress within the project period was being rushed. As there was insufficient time for on-site inspection, some businesses were randomly selected and inspected, and even in cases where visits were not possible, data such as photo registers were collected. After review, it was determined that there was no problem and the subsidy was paid. However, it was confirmed that some of the business sites that were not visited had received subsidies through fraudulent methods. In particular, it was revealed that farmers who were directly involved in the problem of false applications even applied as initial subsidy business operators, and it was revealed that they had plotted an organized crime from the application stage. The farmers who plotted a joint crime submitted false applications for the purpose of deceiving the local government agricultural technology center, including Mr. A, to illegally receive subsidies. However, The police determined that Mr. A had participated in the illegal supply and demand from farmers even after knowing this, and sent the case to the prosecution on charges such as writing false official documents. If Mr. A was sentenced to probation for charges such as writing false official documents, there was a high possibility that he would be subject to dismissal, and if he was fined, would be subject to disciplinary action and be disadvantaged in lifetime promotions. Fortunately, Mr. A's legal representative said that this was an incident caused by the intentionality of the farmers who participated in the project along with the above facts, and that there was no bribe or We proved that there was no solicitation. As a result of revealing whether there was an improper solicitation or bribery, and whether we were aware of the illegal receipt of subsidies, we were fortunate to conclude the pre-trial case with a suspended indictment. Daeryun Law Firm (Yuhan), which handled the case, said, “Legally, Mr. A’s intent is denied in relation to the crime of writing false official documents, etc. The essence of this case is that each business originated from the crime of deceiving Mr. A and receiving illegal payments. “This is the result of emphasizing that it is impossible to uncover all the wrongdoing in an objective situation, and that this is the first time this type of business has been conducted,” he explained.

Providing one-stop assistance for differentiated election preparation, including analysis of public opinion trends, National Election Commission surveys, investigations, trials, etc. Daeryun Law Firm announced on the 21st that it has launched an election response team ahead of the 22nd general election of the National Assembly on April 10. A Daeryun official explained on the day, "As election violence and war of nerves are heating up, Daeryun's election response team plans to analyze pledges and prevent legal disputes." Investigation and trial The election response team is comprised of attorneys from all civil service departments who are skilled in the investigation and trial of cases that violate the Public Official Election Act. Representative Kim Kuk-il (24th Judicial Research and Training Institute), a former head of the Prosecutor's Office who has handled many criminal cases against politicians, and Attorney Son Soon-hyuk (18th class), who is skilled in responding to election law violation cases, served as team leaders. Representative Kim is serving as vice president of the National Citizens' Movement Coalition for Reporting Corruption in Public Officials. He has handled many criminal cases against influential politicians. Attorney Son handled cases such as violation of election law in Haeundae and Gijang National Assembly by-elections, violation of election law by Gijang-gun mayor, Haeundae-gu mayor, and Geumjeong-gu mayor candidate. Currently residing at the Daeryun regional office, we plan to provide prompt service to customers outside of the metropolitan area. Attorneys Jin-won Kim (21st class), Chang-soo Na (31st class), Bong-ha Seo (31st class), and Hyeong-yoon Kang (42nd class) are former attorneys who have handled election law violation cases involving numerous presidential candidates, members of the National Assembly, and local government heads, and will respond from the investigative stage. In particular, Attorney Na is also working as an external lecturer in the field of public official crimes at the Audit Training Institute, and Attorney Kang was evaluated as an expert in public investigation during his time as a prosecutor. In addition, attorneys who have worked for a long time in the Public Security Department of the Prosecutors' Office and lawyers with experience as legal advisors to local election commissions have joined, and it is evaluated that they have formed an organization suitable for election-related advice and response to violations of the public official election law. CEO Kuk-il Kim said, "It is composed of experts with practical experience related to election law violations in the prosecution and courts. “We have become the optimal response team,” he explained. “We are capable of comprehensive and rapid response in all stages, from election preparations to the National Election Commission investigation, investigation, and trial.” ■ The Daeryun Election Response Team, which provides one-stop legal services linked to the work of specialized groups, completed the review of laws and precedents related to the April 10 general election, and differentiated itself by conducting analysis of public opinion trends by utilizing the capabilities and technologies possessed by the evidence investigation and digital forensics group. The election response team differentiated itself. We plan to provide one-stop legal services in all areas, from response to election preparation and election campaign stages to consultation, investigation, and trial assistance. In particular, while expanding and reorganizing, we will also proceed with organic business linkage with the detective group and investigation response team, which are comprised of many talented people. This is to respond to the National Election Commission investigation, prosecution and police investigation, and illegal acts by opposing candidates due to the spread of false facts, fake news, and black propaganda. According to the prosecution, as of the 29th of last month, a total of 113 people were booked for election offenses related to the 22nd general election, 7 of them were indicted, and 85 are under investigation. Among the types of election crimes, black propaganda was the most common with 47 cases (41.6%), followed by bribery. Election crimes and illegal acts by public officials and organizations followed with 24 and 8 cases, respectively. Four cases of election violence and obstruction were recorded. The detective group and its investigative response team have extensive experience in cases such as the spread of false facts, bribery, and perjury, so they will be actively involved in the initial response in the prosecution and police investigation. Representative Kim said, "Cases of election law violations are on the rise. There are many cases of people being indicted for election law violations even if they win the general election." He added, "We have to look at it differently from regular criminal cases. The statute of limitations for prosecution is also 6 months. “It is short, so a quick response to the investigation or investigation is necessary,” he said. As legal issues related to elections, such as general elections and local elections, continue to arise, Daeryun plans to maintain a team to be able to respond at all times.

Response to election law violations, etc. 2026-05-11T01:43:42.807Z https://www.daeryunlaw.com/en/broadcast/2651 There is no standard for judging individual resignation or collective resignation... Possibility of proving collective action is not easy. While the public resignation of an intern at a local hospital ignited a movement among fellow doctors who remain cautious, the government threatened that in the current situation, individual resignations could also be viewed as group resignations. However, the legal community pointed out that it is a kind of scare to prevent individual resignations, saying that it is virtually impossible to regard individual resignations as group resignations unless clear evidence of collusion is presented. Park Min-soo, Second Vice Minister of Health and Welfare, said At the ‘Doctors’ Collective Action Central Accident Control Center’ briefing held at the Seoul Government Complex on the 14th, he said, “Any reason for a resignation letter that deviates from the usual is a sign of protest against government policy. Even if it is individual, if you have discussed it with colleagues in advance, it can be viewed as a collective resignation letter.” He continued, “When receiving a resignation letter from an individual hospital, the reasons, etc. are carefully examined through consultation, and if it is not an individual reason, the government issues a group resignation letter.” “We must comply with the order banning the acceptance of resignation letters,” he said, adding, “We are checking the status of each individual hospital and major hospitals.” Vice Minister Park’s remarks came as some residents have recently shown individual moves to resign under government pressure. The previous day, an intern at Daejeon St. Mary’s Hospital publicly announced his intention to resign on YouTube, saying, “I am resigning for personal reasons.” In relation to this, lawyer Daeryun C of the law firm said, “If there is no evidence of prior collusion, it is impossible to punish individual resignations alone,” he said. He continued, “The individual resignations submitted by medical residents to each hospital cannot be considered collective resignations. When individual resignations occur in succession, there is no standard as to how many individual resignations will be considered individual resignations and from what point onwards, it will be considered collective resignation.” He responded to the government’s position to determine the reason for resignation, saying, “Resignations are done for personal conscience or individual reasons, but this is not lumped together.” “It is also virtually impossible to judge it as a group resignation,” he said. However, if there is evidence or circumstances of collusion by medical groups or hospitals, it could become a problem. Attorney C said, “If there is evidence of collusion at medical resident groups or hospital meetings, such as ‘let’s resign individually and make it look like a group action,’ there is room for it to be considered a collective action.” In response to the argument that the government may regard residents’ failure to renew their contracts as a collective action, attorney C said, Extension must follow the principle of freedom of contract between the hospital and its affiliated doctors. It is questionable whether the government can prove that failure to extend individual contracts is a collective action if there is no evidence of collusion,” he pointed out. He added, “I think it is a threat made out of misfortune, as it is difficult for the government to prevent residents if they individually resign or do not renew their contracts.” [View full article] - Legal world: “Individual resignation without collusion cannot be punished” 2026-05-13T14:17:44.299Z https://www.daeryunlaw.com/en/broadcast/2647 Daeryun Law Firm (Lihan), one of Korea's top 10 law firms, announced on the 14th that it will expand its criminal response group and provide differentiated legal services based on its high-level case handling capabilities. Daeryun Law Firm (Lihan) has been continuously recruiting lawyers from judges, prosecutors, and police officers to strengthen its criminal field, and has established a criminal response group at its headquarters to increase the efficiency of case handling.

All cases are managed centrally at the headquarters, and an internal advisory system of experts such as general attorneys and specialized lawyers from the criminal response group is being introduced, making every effort to provide the same legal services nationwide. What has changed this year is the establishment of an ‘investigation response team’ within the existing criminal response group in accordance with the prosecution and police’s policy of strengthening investigations. Attorney Park Seong-dong, who worked in the Seoul Metropolitan Police Agency's Investigation Department and Intelligence and Foreign Affairs Department, will lead the team and plan to respond at a higher level of investigation with team members from each Seoul police station. Through this, Daeryun plans to strengthen one-stop assistance for criminal cases and minimize confusion by preemptively responding by forming a timely investigation TF team, such as an election investigation team in preparation for the April 10 general election and a serious disaster investigation team for companies with less than 50 employees. Currently, Daeryun plans to minimize confusion. We provide one-stop legal services from legal consultation at the beginning of the case to closure of the case. We plan to provide accurate diagnosis from consultation through diversifying channels, such as operating our own legal counseling center. In particular, professional investigators who have acquired detective qualifications collaborate with the evidence investigation and digital forensics group to work with the evidence collection and analysis process using cutting-edge investigative techniques. Afterwards, investigation simulations are conducted in a mock investigation room to respond to the police and prosecution investigation stages, and we are taking the initial response through continuous communication with investigative agencies and attendance at the investigation. Daeryun is expanding the criminal response group. Since its launch, it has established a more in-depth cooperation system and announced that its closeness in responding to cases has increased. In addition to closing criminal cases, as it operates 19 dedicated groups, it is managing headquarters-centered management to enable prompt implementation of follow-up responses such as general litigation, arbitration, financial legal affairs, and taxation derived from criminal cases. Daeryun plans to continue to expand its scale by significantly reinforcing team members from police and prosecution investigators and recruiting additional lawyers with experience working in investigative agencies. Daeryun Kim Kuk-il The CEO said, "We have decided to expand our expert organization for preemptive and comprehensive response to investigative agencies not only for general criminal cases but also for urgent issues such as general elections and major disasters. We have strengthened our expertise and strengthened our internal structure with the help of a large number of experts, and now it is time to move forward further. We are fully equipped with the case handling capabilities to handle major criminal cases. This year, we will firmly solidify our position as a top-tier law firm in Korea."

Court holds company accountable for intentionally hindering industrial accident approval. “It is difficult to acknowledge the worker’s claim.” 3-year legal battle concluded, application for unfair dismissal relief, backed by dismissal of unfair dismissal sanctions judgment cancellation [Sports Seoul | Reporter Kim Su-ji] There was a case where all claims for industrial accident damages filed against the company by a worker claiming an industrial accident due to unfair dismissal were dismissed. The Seoul Southern District Court ruled that all claims of worker A would be dismissed in a lawsuit against Company B and its executives and employees seeking compensation for damages due to illegal acts such as violation of the Labor Standards Act and violation of the duty of care under the Occupational Safety and Health Act. Mr. A eventually submitted a letter of resignation upon receiving notice from the company that it had decided to abolish the department he was in at the time. He later withdrew it before it was accepted, but the company claimed that it did not accept it and claimed 50 million won in damages against key executives and employees and the corporation. The main purpose of the claim is that an industrial accident occurred during the retirement process due to illegal acts and unfair work instructions, and Company B and its executives and employees intentionally interfered with delaying the approval of the industrial accident by denying the occurrence of the industrial accident. As a result, the company suffered economic loss and mental damage, and the company is liable for damages exceeding the value of industrial insurance benefits. Company B and its employees say it is unfair. In the plaintiff's lawsuit and criminal complaint, which lasted for more than three years, the facts were sufficiently argued and argued, and rather, he complained that he had suffered a lot of pain and property damage due to Mr. A's actions. According to Company B's claim, Mr. A submitted his resignation voluntarily and claimed that there was no act of deception or coercion in this process. The three-year legal battle between Mr. A and Company B ended with the court in favor of Company B. The court explained, “It is difficult to admit that an illegal act like the plaintiff’s claim was committed, and industrial accident compensation, which has the nature of a social security system that provides compensation as prescribed by law regardless of the intention or negligence of the employer, etc., and liability for damages based on the principle of negligence are completely different in nature.” Previously, the Local Labor Relations Commission ruled to dismiss Mr. A's application for relief, saying that the employment relationship was terminated by legally accepting the resignation letter in this case. When the retrial was dismissed, an unfair dismissal lawsuit was filed seeking cancellation of the unfair dismissal sanctions judgment, but the court ruled that the plaintiff lost. Daeryun Corporate Legal Group, Law Firm (Limited), which represented Company B and its employees, said, “We found that there was no basis for acknowledging the plaintiff’s claim by proving that the resignation was caused by the worker’s gross negligence or arbitrariness.” “The lawsuit continued for a long time even though there were no legal or procedural defects or negligence on the part of the company. Cases related to such industrial accidents and unfair dismissals are continuing, and a clear causal relationship must be proven and a comprehensive judgment must be made.” “It is necessary,” he said.

Minsu Park, Ministry of Health and Welfare2The Vice Minister “No matter what the number of medical schools is expanded, the medical community will protest.”He said “union is labor 3Although they have the authority, doctors, both private practitioners and public servants, do not have such authority, so collective action itself is illegal.”said. actually on the same day(6Day) afternoon 3After announcing the increase in the number of city medical schools, the government ‘Injunction against class action and class action teacher’put down.

After the announcement of the medical school quota, the Korean Medical Association Chairman Lee Pil-soo and the executive team resigned, shaking the center of the general strike..However, the scale of the strike may increase as each training hospital across the country conducts a vote for or against the strike, led by the Korean Medical Resident Association, along with the formation of the Korean Medical Association emergency committee.. The problem is that last year's amendment to the Medical Service Act, which focuses on the Medical Personnel License Cancellation Act, which revokes the licenses of medical practitioners who have been sentenced to imprisonment or heavier punishment, was passed last year. 11It is said that the risk to doctors due to participating in the strike is high as it has been in effect since March.. It appears that this is related to the current atmosphere in some teaching hospitals where not only residents, but also salaried and commissioned doctors are seeking new forms of strike measures to avoid government punishment, such as submitting leave and preparing for resignation after the Lunar New Year holiday.. “opposition to government policy, not a legal strike” vs Opinions are divided on punishment greater than imprisonment., Conditions for issuing a medical law business start order ‘without justifiable reason’, ‘Serious harm to public health(危害)concern that may occur’There are some opinions that the applicability of the law may depend on how it is interpreted, but conflicting opinions are also suppressed..

The same applies even if a suspended sentence or suspended sentence is issued.”explained.On the other hand, although this medical strike cannot be viewed as a legal strike, there is also an analysis that it is unlikely to lead to actual license cancellation..Jeong Hye-seung, representative attorney at Banwoo Law Firm “A strike against government policy rather than a strike that occurred at the workplace is not a legal right to strike granted under the Labor Standards Act., Accordingly, an order to commence work may be issued.”He predicted that. and “2000Those sentenced to prison for the 2018 doctors' strike were the head of the suzerain organization that led the strike.(長)was”as “If residents enter the hospital and interfere with medical treatment, the level of punishment for obstruction of business may increase, but such a thing does not seem possible..

This is the policy. Currently, Daeryun provides one-stop legal services from legal consultation at the beginning of the case to the conclusion of the case. We plan to provide accurate diagnosis from consultation through diversifying channels, such as operating our own legal counseling center. In particular, we work together with the evidence investigation and digital forensics group, which includes professional investigators who have acquired detective qualifications, to collect and analyze evidence using cutting-edge investigative techniques. Afterwards, we conduct investigation simulations in a mock investigation room to respond to the police and prosecution investigation stages, and begin initial response through continuous communication with investigative agencies and attendance at the investigation. There were also cases where collaboration with the evidence investigation and digital forensics group shined. Recently, he defended a defendant who was accused of quasi-rape after drinking and falling asleep together and was acquitted. This is because, based on cell phone forensics and evidence collection, the victim's attitude after the incident and loopholes in the victim's statement were pointed out, emphasizing that the circumstances of the complaint were unnatural and suspicious. Daeryun said that after the expansion of the criminal response group, a more thorough cooperation system was established and the level of adhesion to the case response increased. In addition to closing the criminal case, as it operates 19 dedicated groups, it handles general litigation, arbitration, financial law, taxation, etc. derived from criminal cases. Headquarters-centered management is being conducted to enable rapid implementation of follow-up responses. Daeryun plans to continue to expand its scale by significantly reinforcing team members from police and prosecution investigators and recruiting additional lawyers with experience working in investigative agencies. Daeryun CEO Kim Kuk-il said, “We decided to expand the expert organization for a preemptive and comprehensive response by responding to investigative agencies not only for general criminal cases but also for urgent issues such as general elections and major disasters. While strengthening expertise as a large number of experts join in, “We have completed our internal strengthening, and now it is time to move forward,” he said. “Daeryun has sufficient case handling capabilities to handle major criminal cases. This year, we will solidify our position as a top-tier law firm in Korea.” [View full article] - Daeryun Law Firm (Lihan) establishes investigation response team 2026-05-03T01:02:44.414Z https://www.daeryunlaw.com/en/broadcast/2642 Daeryun Law Firm announced on the 7th that it signed a legal advisory business agreement for corporate development with Gogwang Industry on the 7th.

Filed lawsuit for refund of accommodation fee - Yanolja decided to temporarily seize bond for lease deposit [Sports Seoul | Reporter Kim Su-ji] While the accommodation reservation platform Yanolja's policy of not being able to cancel same-day reservations has spread into a lawsuit claiming refund of accommodation fees, a decision to provisionally seize Yanolja has been made, drawing attention to future lawsuits on the merits. Previously, a conflict arose between Daeryun Law Firm (Limited) and Yanolja over the accommodation fee refund policy. Daeryun reserved a special product through the Yanolja app, and immediately after making the reservation, he requested cancellation due to a change in schedule. However, Yanolja responded that a refund was not possible on the grounds that the cancellation was not made within ‘10 minutes’, and ultimately maintained its position of no refund, leading to a conflict. Accordingly, Daeryun is known to have filed a lawsuit to receive a refund of the lodging fee through legal procedures. Daeryun is known to have argued that the defendant Yanolja's refund policy on the lodging contract in this case is invalid for violating the Electronic Commerce Act, and that since the intention to withdraw the subscription was expressed within a legal period, the subscription was naturally withdrawn, so Yanolja should refund the lodging fee. Daeryun's lawyer said, "Based on legal principles and precedents, Yanolja says that refunds are not possible after '10 minutes'." “Since the refund terms and conditions are invalid, Yanolja received the payment for the accommodation contract without any legal cause, and therefore Yanolja has an obligation to return the payment for the accommodation contract in this case and the related delay damages as unjust enrichment.” The application for provisional seizure of claims was accepted. Provisional seizure is when a creditor seizes the debtor's assets in advance so that they can compulsorily execute the debtor's assets in the future, and the general interpretation in the legal community is that a decision on provisional seizure is made only when the creditor's claims are explained to the court. Daeryun's lawyer said, "Considering all consumers, it is estimated that the damage caused by Yanolja's policy will be significant. We are also making every effort to prepare for the lawsuit on the merits to prevent further damage to consumers. “Through this lawsuit, we will sound the alarm on Yanolja’s actions of excessively restricting consumers’ right to cancel,” he said, drawing attention to the lawsuit on the merits.

Victim displacement After more than 8 weeks of serious injury, the victim sued the company... Tens of millions of won in settlement money paid, criminal record left despite receiving no punishment [Sports Seoul | Reporter Kim Su-ji] Mr. A, who indiscriminately assaulted the victim at a business reception on the grounds that he did not recognize him, paid tens of millions of won in settlement money to the victim, Mr. B, and received no punishment from Mr. B, but was sentenced to a crime of bodily harm. Mr. A and Mr. B did not have a special personal relationship in the past and did not have any acquaintance with each other. However, Mr. A, who met at a business meeting, mentioned, ‘I had met Mr. B before, and at that time, he ignored me.’ He kept repeating the same thing while moving, and as the argument escalated, Mr. A punched Mr. B in the face and the assault began. Mr. A beat Mr. B several times, including stepping on his foot and hitting his entire body as he fell to the floor, and did not provide any relief to the victim who fainted as a result. In the end, Mr. B was taken to the hospital, and after hearing that he had suffered injuries for more than 8 weeks, Mr. B's company recognized the damage suffered by Mr. B and filed a personal injury complaint against Mr. A. Mr. A paid tens of millions of won in settlement money and reached an agreement with Mr. B not to punish him, but in the end, a fine was imposed in the form of a fine. Daeryun Law Firm (Limited), which represented Mr. B's lawsuit, said, "Mr. A He used violence out of spite, and as a person who trained in martial arts such as fighting, the degree of injury was very serious, and at the time, Mr. B felt his life was in danger.” He explained, “It is a premeditated and indiscriminate violence, and could be recognized as subject to punishment for injury separately from the agreement.” Even if the charge is acknowledged, there are cases where the criminal action that leaves a criminal record, such as a suspended indictment, is not received depending on the case. In this case, too, after Mr. B reached an agreement with Mr. A, He expressed his intention not to seek punishment, and as it was his first offense, a quick conclusion was expected. However, it appears that Mr. A was found guilty after specifically proving his intention to commit the crime and the damage caused by it during the complaint process.

Meanwhile, attention is focused on the establishment of a legal basis for punishing casino-related activities, such as illegal gambling in hold'em pubs, which have been in the blind spot of legislation. At a plenary session on the afternoon of February 1, the National Assembly passed a bill to partially amend the ‘Tourism Promotion Act’, which defines ‘casino business-like activities’ and establishes the basis for sanctions for casino business-like activities, with 209 present, 207 in favor, and 2 abstentions. There are predictions that this revision will have the effect of eradicating illegal gambling in hold’em pubs. ‘Hold’em Pub’ is a compound word of Hold’em (a type of card game played with a dealer) and Pub, and refers to a place that charges an admission fee, provides a gaming location and chips, and sells alcohol. Recently, as ‘anomalous hold’em pubs’, which engage in illegal gambling by exchanging cash for chips, playing the game, and then cashing out again, have become prevalent, many have pointed out that crackdown and regulation are urgent. The National Investigation Headquarters of the National Police Agency conducted an intensive crackdown on illegal gambling at Hold'em pubs from August to December last year, detecting 1,004 people and arresting 8 of them. According to related industries, it is estimated that there are currently about 3,000 hold’em pubs operating nationwide. The main content of this amendment is to establish a new definition of ‘casino business-like activities’ and prohibit them. The amendment defines casino business-like activities as ‘an act that causes property profits or losses to users by providing services that fall under the category of casino business under the Tourism Promotion Act for profit by a person other than a casino operator.’ With this new definition, illegal gambling in hold’em pubs is considered a ‘casino-like activity’ and is included in the prohibited activities under the Tourism Promotion Act. The current Tourism Promotion Act does not provide a ban on activities similar to the casino business, so there is a limitation that illegal gambling in hold'em pubs can only be punished for gambling or opening a gambling place under the criminal law. According to the revision of the law, anyone who engages in similar activities in the casino business will be subject to imprisonment for up to 7 years or a fine of up to 70 million won. This is higher than the level of punishment stipulated for the crime of opening a gambling place under the Criminal Act, which is imprisonment for up to 5 years or a fine of up to 30 million won. Jo Seong-geun, a criminal specialist at Daeryun Law Firm, said, “Under the current law, similar activities such as horse racing and horse racing, which are classified as gambling industries along with the casino business, are punished with imprisonment for up to 7 years or a fine of up to 70 million won. However, in the case of hold’em pubs, there has been criticism that the level of punishment is relatively low because the crime of opening a gambling house is applied under the criminal law.” He added, “Through this legislation, the issue of fairness of punishment with other gambling industries is expected to be resolved.” In addition, with the passage of this amendment, similar activities in the casino industry will be subject to surveillance by the Gambling Industry Integrated Supervision Committee (Compliance Committee). Reporters can receive a reward of up to 50 million won. The Ministry of Culture, Sports and Tourism expressed expectations that the effectiveness of crackdowns will be increased by activating internal reporting and reporting due to the nature of illegal gambling in hold'em pubs, which has been difficult to detect. People Power Party lawmaker Lee Yong-ho, who proposed the amendment, said, “The significance of the passage of this amendment is to bring illegal hold’em pubs, which are in the blind spot of the law, within the scope of the law,” and added, “We expect that the establishment of clear regulations on casino-like activities will increase the effectiveness of cracking down on illegal hold’em pubs.” Meanwhile, the Ministry of Culture, Sports and Tourism recognized the seriousness of the spread of illegal activities in Hold'em pubs and formed a 'Special Task Force (TF) to respond to illegal activities in Hold'em pubs' in July of last year in collaboration with the House Audit Committee, Ministry of Gender Equality and Family, National Police Agency, and Ministry of Food and Drug Safety, and prepared measures to eradicate illegal activities. In addition to revising the Tourism Promotion Act, the special task force is conducting a nationwide survey of hold'em pub operations, strengthening crackdowns on illegal activities in hold'em pubs, and designating hold'em pubs as harmful businesses for youth. Kim Geun-ho, director of tourism industry policy at the Ministry of Culture, Sports and Tourism, said, “We expect that this revision of the Tourism Promotion Act will allow us to effectively crack down on illegal cash transactions that occur in hold’em pubs, etc.” Lee Jin-sik, Secretary General of the House Audit Committee, emphasized, “The passage of this amendment will be an important clue to eradicating illegal gambling in Hold’em pubs,” and added, “Related ministries will continue to cooperate to respond strongly to illegal activities in Hold’em pubs.” [View full article] - “Illegal gambling at Hold’em pubs will be punished”… Passage of amendment to the Tourism Promotion Act [National Assembly audience] 2026-05-11T07:42:33.796Z https://www.daeryunlaw.com/en/broadcast/2628 In November last year, Mr. A (34) ordered 200 tablets of the erectile dysfunction drug Vidalista (a generic version of Cialis) for 130,000 won from an overseas direct purchase site. This is because the price is less than one-fifth of what it would be if you buy it with a doctor's prescription in Korea. But the medicine did not arrive even after two months. When I inquired with the company, the only response they gave me was “Delivery will begin soon.” Mr. A, who felt suspicious, inquired, and within 10 days, more than 100 people who had suffered the same damage gathered. Mr. A said, “I have been buying medicine directly from overseas for 8 years,” and “I chose the company because it had a high discount rate, but I got scammed.” Mr. A plans to sue the other victims and the company to the police. Recently, the number of victims of so-called ‘overseas direct purchase scams’, where people like Mr. A buy medicines through overseas direct purchase but do not receive the goods, are on the rise. This is because the number of sites selling hair loss treatments and sexual function enhancement drugs online has mushroomed in recent years. The number of sites suspected of overseas direct purchase fraud registered on the International Trade Consumer Portal increased significantly from 249 in 2020 to 325 last year. Last year, as a result of a crackdown by the Ministry of Food and Drug Safety, there were 18,331 posts about selling and distributing medicines online. In fact, when I searched for medicine purchase on Google on the 30th, I was able to immediately access the direct purchase site. Many of the companies were encouraging people to join the site and purchase by increasing the discount rate the more medicines were purchased, or providing points to both parties when a new subscriber wrote down a referral. The problem is that bringing medicines into the country without obtaining an import permit from the Ministry of Food and Drug Safety is itself a criminal act that violates the Pharmaceutical Affairs Act. In addition, hair loss and erectile dysfunction treatments, which are mainly sold by illegal direct purchase sites, are specialty drugs in Korea and cannot be sold without a doctor's prescription. Even if you fall victim to a direct purchase of pharmaceuticals, it is not easy to get relief. This is because scam sites are mainly based overseas. Illegal sales of pharmaceuticals are punishable by imprisonment for up to 5 years and a fine of up to 50 million won, but in reality, investigation is not easy. A police official said, “If the direct purchase company’s IP is located overseas, it will inevitably take a long time because we have to seek international cooperation for the investigation.” In addition, in the case of prescription drugs containing ingredients such as steroids, ephedrine, and etomidate, purchasers may be subject to a fine of less than 1 million won (Pharmaceutical Affairs Act, Article 98). The recent increase in the number of direct purchase companies of overseas drugs is due to the rapid increase in domestic demand. They visit direct purchase sites to obtain unlicensed medicines that are not available in Korea or to purchase them in bulk at low prices even if they are sold domestically. In 2022, Incheon Headquarters Customs caught six people who smuggled in and sold 57,000 abortion pills from China that were not approved in Korea. Some drugs used to treat ischemic cerebral infarction, cognitive impairment in the elderly, and narcolepsy are also misused as ‘smart drugs’ (drugs that improve your brain). Mr. C, who has experience purchasing the drug directly from overseas, said, “This medicine cannot be prescribed unless you are a patient diagnosed with dementia, so I had no choice.” Hair loss medicine and sexual function improvement medicine are constantly purchased overseas for the purpose of reducing costs. In fact, one hair loss medicine costs 16,500 won for 10 tablets when purchased at a pharmacy, but when purchased directly from overseas, it can be purchased for 2,600 won. Mr. Lee (36), who bought the hair loss medication directly from overseas, said, “To get a prescription, there is a long wait at the hospital and the price is high, so I buy it even at the risk of side effects.” The methods used by overseas direct purchasers to avoid the eyes of customs authorities are becoming increasingly sophisticated. They do so-called ‘can change’ by changing the packaging container, or they intentionally omit customs-banned ingredients such as steroids, ephedrine, and etomidate from the product name. Some take advantage of the fact that products priced under US$150 (approximately 200,000 won) do not need to report imports and report prices lower than the actual price. Some point out that punishment for buyers should be strengthened to prevent illegal overseas direct purchase of pharmaceuticals. This is because the punishment is lighter than that of sellers, and the drug ingredients that can be punished are limited. Attorney Choi Hyeon-deok of Daeryun Law Firm said, “The Pharmaceutical Affairs Act must be fundamentally revised to strengthen the punishment of buyers.” [View full article] - "130,000 won for 200 pills for erectile dysfunction"... I thought it was a windfall, but it was a ‘direct purchase fraud’ 2026-05-14T04:59:24.921Z https://www.daeryunlaw.com/en/broadcast/2619 Court recognizes ‘medical treatment expert’ based on future income… "Pay 273.16 million won" ruling In the appeal trial for a prospective medical worker who was assaulted on the street, the amount of damages was nearly twice as high as in the first trial. This is because the future income standard for prospective medical staff was 'health, social welfare and religious workers' in the first trial, but was recognized as a 'medical care expert' in the second trial. According to the legal community on the 30th, the Busan District Court recently ruled In the appeal trial of a damages claim filed by Mr. A, a dental graduate school student, it was ruled that B, who caused the injury, should pay approximately 273.16 million won. This is about twice as much as the 143.59 million won in damages awarded in the first trial in February last year. Mr. A bumped shoulders with Mr. B on a roadside in Geumjeong-gu, Busan in April 2020. When Mr. A complained that he was a “mistress,” Mr. B struck Mr. A in the face several times with his fist and kicked Mr. A, who fell to the floor. As a result, Mr. A’s muscles at the corners of his mouth, which are at both ends of his lips, were completely ruptured, and he developed temporomandibular arthritis, an injury that required treatment for 21 days. In February of the following year, he was also diagnosed with post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD), depression, and panic disorder due to the assault. Accordingly, Mr. B received a summary order with a fine of 2 million won in October 2020, and Mr. A claimed damages of about 297.06 million won against Mr. B. The first trial court found that when Mr. A opened his mouth, his lips were twisted, and neurological symptoms remained in the oral area. It was determined that there was a loss of work ability to the extent that aesthetic problems, such as locomotives, affected the choice of occupation. The court determined that the deep scar on the lips was “to the extent that it affects the ability to attract patients as a dentist.” The court calculated the profit (lost profit) that could have been earned if this incident had not occurred. Mr. A, who was 21 years old at the time of the accident, was considered highly likely to become a dentist as he received a scholarship for excellent grades at a dental school, and lost profits were calculated based on ‘health, social welfare, and religious occupations’ from the internship period in 2026 to 2063 when he turns 65. In addition, he was paid about 143.59 million won, including medical expenses, future treatment expenses, alimony, etc., and delayed interest. ruled to pay. Regarding this, both Mr. A and Mr. B appealed. Mr. A believed that future profits were underestimated and requested that the standard for ‘medical care specialist’ in the 2022 ‘Labor Status Survey Report by Employment Type’ be recognized. On the contrary, Mr. B argued that future profits were overestimated due to the fact that he was a dental student. Accordingly, the appellate court did not accept Mr. B’s argument and doubled the amount of damages compared to the first trial. “Pay approximately 273.16 million won and delay damages.” The court ruled, “The plaintiff has excellent academic performance, including receiving a scholarship for academic excellence and receiving excellent grades. Considering his age and academic performance, there is a significant possibility that he will be able to earn income as a dentist in the future.” Daeryun Law Firm, which represented Mr. A, said, Attorney Choi Bo-yoon said, “We confirmed that a new occupational group of medical specialists was created in the recent labor status survey report by employment type, and we actively argued for this based on Supreme Court precedent, so we were able to have dentists’ reasonable income recognized.” [View full article] Daily Medi - Dental student assaulted on the street...

Simple drug driving punishment., Weaker than drunk driving [Daily Good News] Reporter Park Sang-woo = Driving while under the influence of drugs ‘drug driving’Although this is increasing, it is pointed out that there is an urgent need to prepare countermeasures due to insufficient crackdown and punishment regulations.. According to the National Police Agency, it occurred after taking drugs. 2car crime ▲2020year 182case ▲20221year 230case ▲2022year 214It amounts to.Among these, traffic crimes ▲2020year 45case ▲2021year 67case ▲2022year 66Counted as a case. What happens after taking drugs 2car crime 4In the middle of the case 1This is a traffic crime.. There is also a case where a driver's license was revoked due to drug use. 2019year 58In the gun 2023year(110month) 82By the matter 41% There was a sharp increase. This increase in drug driving is due to the increase in drug offenders.. According to prosecutors 2018year 1only2,613The number of crackdowns on drug offenders was 2022year 1only8,395By the matter 45.8% increased. The problem is that crackdown and punishment regulations for drug driving are insufficient..According to research results from the University of Iowa, the antihistamine ingredient ‘diphenhydramine’Driving after taking drugs containing these drugs is due to high blood alcohol content. 0.1% It can lead to more dangerous situations than drunk driving.. blood alcohol concentration 0.1%Driver's license revocation department 1more than a year 2Imprisonment of less than one year 500More than 10,000 won 1,000Punishable by a fine of less than 10,000 won.According to another study, drug addicted patients who suffer from serious psychomotor disorders due to drug dependence have lower blood alcohol levels. 1.73.0% Shows effects and symptoms corresponding to the above.Here, drug users tend to engage in their own specific behaviors after taking drugs..Korean detective‧Kim Nang-hee, a research fellow at the Korea Legal Policy Institute, “One of the characteristics of drug users is that they exhibit behavioral patterns that must be followed after taking drugs.”as “For example, go into a corner of the room, turn on music and stay still., There are many types of people who must drive, etc., but these people can be more dangerous.”explained.However, there are currently no provisions to crack down on drug driving, so drug tests can only be conducted in special situations where alcohol intake cannot be measured even if the driver speaks gibberish or exhibits abnormal behavior.. As a result, the police often do not crack down on drugs under the pretext of not having crackdown regulations, so drug use is often not detected.. For this reason, it is estimated that the actual number of drug driving cases is much higher than the number of cases cracked down by the police.. According to the current Road Traffic Act, drug driving 3Imprisonment of up to one year or 1,000Punishable by a fine of less than 10,000 won. This is blood alcohol concentration 0.2% Drunk driving or more 2more than a year 5Imprisonment of up to one year or 1,000More than 10,000 won 2,000It is only half of a fine of less than 10,000 won..In particular, there is a provision for punishment for drug driving in the Act on Aggravated Punishment for Specific Crimes, but this applies only if it results in a fatal accident.. In other words, the punishment for simple drug driving is actually weaker than that for drunk driving..For example, last 2021A driver who caused a serial collision and left the scene while driving after taking psychotropic drugs in Suwon, Gyeonggi-do was sentenced to prison in 2012. 1probation for 1 year 2Sentenced to years.

Punishment of ‘those who cause inter-floor noise’ is a blind spot. Recently, with the Supreme Court’s first ruling that retaliatory acts against inter-floor noise can be punished as ‘stalking,’ it is expected that a series of criminal complaints related to inter-floor noise will follow. On the 14th, the Supreme Court sentenced a man in his 30s to eight months in prison and two years of probation for harassing his neighbors by intentionally causing noise in the house above him during a dispute over noise between floors. This is the first ruling by the Supreme Court that recognizes retaliation for noise between floors as a stalking crime. According to the Supreme Court precedent, there are concerns that the number of cases in which retaliation for noise between floors will be filed as stalking will increase compared to now. This is because with the enforcement of the Stalking Punishment Act in October 2021, inter-floor noise retaliation meets the conditions for stalking. Cho Seong-geun, an attorney at Daeryun Law Firm, explained, “When establishing the stalking punishment law, noise between floors would not have been taken into consideration. The purpose of the legislation at the time would have been to deter sending messages and voices to unwanted parties, but it ended up fitting into the act of retaliation against noise between floors.” The problem is that although the path to punishment for inter-floor noise retaliation has been opened, there is no proper means of holding accountable those who caused inter-floor noise. Attorney Cho explained, “Generally, it is difficult to file a criminal complaint for causing noise between floors,” and “You can only report a violation of the Stalking Punishment Act if the intention to intentionally cause noise to reach the house below is proven.” Inter-floor noise disputes are increasing day by day. According to the office of Democratic Party lawmaker Hong Ki-won, complaints about inter-floor noise in apartment complexes increased by about 70% from 32,785 in 2019 to 55,504 in 2022. As inter-floor noise disputes become more frequent, measures to strengthen the responsibility of those causing inter-floor noise are being demanded. Cha Sang-gon, director of the Housing Culture and Housing Improvement Research Institute, pointed out, “There is nothing that can be done from the perspective of victims of inter-floor noise,” adding, “We do not support retaliation, but the problem is that there is no appropriate means to punish the cause.” [View full article] - “Revenge of noise between floors?

Three out of 10 divorced couples are in the category of divorce at twilight. Divorce at dusk shows different aspects from divorce at the beginning of marriage, the so-called ‘divorce at dawn’. As children become adults, child support is no longer dealt with, and there are relatively few cases where there are disputes over alimony as the statute of limitations on damages claims has expired. Therefore, the dispute that accounts for the largest proportion of divorce at twilight is property division. Property division is the act of dividing the property accumulated by a couple through joint cooperation during the marriage period according to each person's contribution. In the generation preparing for divorce in their twilight years, conflicts arise regarding 'homemaker property division' because dual-income families are not common. However, child rearing and housework also constitute indirect property formation, so even those who have been housewives throughout the marriage can claim property division. Division of not only cash but also bonds and real rights such as cars and apartments is recognized. Divorce lawyer Lee Seon Choi said, "When determining contribution to the formation of common property, the entire marital life is comprehensively considered. Since only income-generating activities are not considered as contributions to the formation of property, housewives can also request property division in divorce at dusk. However, it is important to prove contribution." “There is a case where ownership of half of an apartment was recognized,” he said. “This is a result achieved through specific proof of cooperation during the marriage period.” Help = Lee Seon Choi, attorney at Daeryun Law Firm (Limited) | [View full article] - In the event of a divorce at dusk, a housewife can also file a claim for division of assets worth hundreds of millions of dollars and jointly name the apartment. 2026-05-11T19:57:01.407Z https://www.daeryunlaw.com/en/broadcast/1953 [Busan = Newsis] Reporter Kwon Tae-wan = A woman in her 40s who forged a parking sign for a disabled parking space was sentenced to probation. According to the legal community on the 5th, Criminal Division 5 of the Eastern Branch of the Busan District Court (Judge Kyung-hoon Moon) sentenced Ms. A (40s, female), who was indicted on charges of forging official documents and using forged official documents, to four months in prison and two years of probation. The court also sentenced Ms. A to 80 hours of probation. Community service was ordered. According to the criminal facts acknowledged by the first trial, Mr. A is accused of forging an image of a 'disabled parking space parking space sign' after downloading it from the Internet in order to park in a disabled parking space at his residence in Busan last year. Mr. A is also accused of placing a forged disabled parking space parking sign at the bottom of the driver's side windshield of his vehicle in the parking lot of a department store in Haeundae-gu, Busan on February 18 of this year. It is said that a citizen who saw a parking sign for a disabled parking space filed a complaint. If you forge a parking sign for a disabled parking space, you can be severely punished, including up to 7 years in prison or a fine of up to 20 million won. Kim Dong-jin, a lawyer at Daeryun Law Firm (Limited), said, "Forgery of official documents and use of forged official documents are crimes that lower public trust in society, so they are severely punished," and "Citizens are different from before. He explained, “Courts are also not putting up with crimes like falsifying official documents like they used to, and there is a trend of strengthening the level of punishment.” He added, “Although the duration of the crime in this case is not long or the severity of the crime is serious, the court is imposing a severe punishment by imposing a suspended sentence, and that shows that our society is paying a lot of attention to protecting the disabled.” [View full article] - Woman in her 40s sentenced to probation for forging and using parking signs in disabled parking spaces 2026-05-13T05:56:06.193Z https://www.daeryunlaw.com/en/broadcast/1832 【 Anchor Comment 】 To date, there are 7 victims who have reported drinking narcotic beverages.

However, if women are always anxious because they are not safe from sexual crimes, they will not be able to live a basic life, beyond equality between men and women. Recently, the crime of forcible home invasion and molestation was judged unconstitutional due to excessively harsh punishment, creating a legislative vacuum. As a result, victims and victims of lawsuits are feeling anxious. Moreover, the number of women living alone is increasing. There are many who point out that legislation is urgent because of the situation. This is Reporter Choi Hee-ji.

After being questioned for three hours the previous day, Mr. Lee met with reporters and said, “I answered all the questions with sincerity and told the truth.” As Mr. Lee denied the intentional use of drugs, there was talk in the legal community that this investigation might be proceeding like previous drug investigations of other celebrities. Most people in the entertainment industry said “I didn’t know” when being investigated for drugs and avoided severe punishment. In 2011, G-Dragon (real name Kwon Ji-yong, 35) of the K-pop group Big Bang admitted to inhaling marijuana, but received a suspended indictment. At the time, Mr. Kwon said, “I mistook an item a stranger gave me to smoke, which I mistook for a cigarette, and inhaled it once.” Mr. Kwon was recently booked by the police on suspicion of drug use, but denied it, saying, “I have never taken drugs.” He also said, “I will voluntarily appear before the police on the 6th to ensure a quick and fair investigation.” Yoo Ah-in (real name Eom Hong-sik, 37), who was indicted last month on drug use charges, said, “The administration of zolpidem was for the purpose of treating sleep disorders.” Although he took narcotics, it was for medical purposes and the drug was not taken intentionally. The prosecution requested an arrest warrant for Mr. Eom twice, but it was dismissed. Actor Ha Jung-woo (real name Kim Seong-hoon, 45) also denied in 2020, when controversy over propofol administration arose, saying, “Sleep anesthesia was performed at the discretion of the hospital director.” Mr. Kim was sentenced to a fine of 30 million won by the court. In general, drug users are punished with up to 5 years in prison and a fine of up to 50 million won. The sentence is determined considering intentionality and dosage. Na Chang-soo, a lawyer at Daeryun Law Firm and former chief prosecutor, said, “In the case of the marijuana charge applied to Mr. Lee Seon-kyun, there is a possibility that a suspended indictment may be issued depending on the circumstances such as intentionality, number, and period,” and “There is a possibility that a fine may be imposed on the psychotropic charge.” [View full article] - Lee Seon-gyun also said, “I didn’t know it was a drug.” Why celebrities? 2026-05-10T06:39:04.987Z https://www.daeryunlaw.com/en/broadcast/1554 Mr. A signed an employment contract with Mr. B, the CEO of an event company, and has been working for the above company since August 2014, performing duties as an event emcee and dance performer. Mr. B filmed a video of Mr. A performing the above tasks and posted it on an Internet web page. After Mr. A left the company in August 2017, he requested Mr. B to delete the above video several times until November 2021. However, when Mr. B did not delete it, a lawsuit (2022 Gahap 207602) was filed against Mr. B, claiming damages, etc. Mr. B deleted the copy of the complaint around March 27, 2023, when he was served. Daegu District Court Civil Division 12 (Presiding Judge Chae Seong-ho) acknowledged infringement of portrait rights on October 5 and ruled, “The defendant must pay 3 million won in compensation to the plaintiff, and the defendant must not post the video on an Internet webpage.” The court first ruled, “No person shall be filmed, drawn, or published without permission, or used for commercial purposes, regarding his or her face or other physical characteristics that can identify him or her as a specific person according to social norms.” “This right to portrait is a right constitutionally guaranteed by the first sentence of Article 10 of our Constitution,” he said. “Therefore, it is reasonable to believe that an unjust infringement on this constitutes an illegal act, and that the person who has suffered such infringement is subject to mental suffering unless there are special circumstances (see Supreme Court decision 2010Da39277, January 27, 2012, etc.).” He continued, "A person who wishes to take or publish a photograph showing another person's face or other physical characteristics that can identify a specific person according to social norms must obtain consent from the person being photographed before taking the photograph. Even if consent to the photograph is obtained, the motive and circumstances for consenting to the photograph, the purpose to be achieved by publishing the photograph, transaction practices, the knowledge, experience and economic status of the person involved, whether the benefits received are balanced, and the relevant information at the time of the photograph were taken." Considering various circumstances, such as whether the method of publicity was foreseeable and whether it is expected that the parties would have made different agreements at the time of consent to photography if they had known such method of publicity, if the person being photographed wishes to make public the information beyond the scope of what is considered acceptable in terms of common sense in society and conventional wisdom at the time of consent to photography, the consent of the person being photographed must also be obtained in this regard,” and “In this case, the fact that consent to taking pictures was obtained from the person being photographed; “The burden of proving that the publication of the taken photo is within the scope permitted by the person being photographed at the time of consent to the photo shoot lies with the person who took the photo or the person who published it (see Supreme Court decision 2021Da219116, delivered on July 21, 2021, etc.).” The court pointed out, "The defendant claims that there was the plaintiff's explicit or implied consent to the filming and posting of the video, but there is no evidence to acknowledge the plaintiff's explicit consent, and even if the plaintiff implicitly consented to the filming and posting of the video while working as an employee of the defendant, in light of the motive and circumstances of the consent, the content and purpose of use of the video, and the possibility of widespread distribution, it is reasonable to believe that such implicit consent is limited to the period the plaintiff worked as an employee." “It is reasonable to believe that the plaintiff’s portrait rights were violated by using a video of the plaintiff beyond the scope of the plaintiff’s employment contract or by neglecting to delete the previously posted video despite the plaintiff’s request for deletion after the termination of the employment contract. Therefore, we have an obligation to compensate the plaintiff for damages for the mental pain suffered as a result.” According to the court, even though the plaintiff requested the defendant to delete the video several times after terminating the employment contract with the defendant around August 2017, the defendant did not delete it, and posted the video for more than 5 years and 6 months from around August 2017 until around March 27, 2023, when a copy of the complaint in this case was served. In addition, the defendant appears to have achieved a certain publicity effect by filming and posting the video, but did not separately pay the plaintiff for it. Mr. A also requested that if Mr. B violates the obligation to prohibit posting of the video, an indirect compulsory payment of 10 million won per month must be paid until the end date of the violation. However, regarding this, the court said, "It is acknowledged that the defendant filed a business closure report on April 7, 2021, and the evidence submitted by the plaintiff alone is insufficient to believe that the defendant is likely to violate the obligation to prohibit the posting of videos within a short period of time after this judgment is pronounced. Furthermore, if the defendant violates this, the plaintiff may separately apply for indirect coercion. Therefore, in this case, where the probability that the defendant will violate the above obligation has not yet been proven, indirect coercion may be ordered against the defendant. He did not accept it, saying, “It is difficult to see that there is a need for it.” Daeryun Law Firm represented Mr. A.

The SG incident was a situation in which the stock prices of nine stocks plummeted simultaneously due to a large amount of reverse trading that occurred in a securities company's CFD (Certain Contract for Difference) account. At Kiwoom Securities, where suspicions of unfair trading in this regard arose, it was confirmed that an executive's related party had sold about 15 billion won in certain stocks before the stock price plunged. Due to this incident, debtors suffered a loss of not only the investment principal, but also up to 2.5 times the principal. Debtors who have suffered losses are considering personal rehabilitation and filing for bankruptcy. However, due to qualification restrictions such as debt limits, it was virtually impossible for professionals and others to apply for personal rehabilitation, so the damage was even more severe as there was no relief plan. It is reported that some of the current debtors are preparing a planning lawsuit to attempt negotiations with securities companies. However, we must be cautious because if we proceed without proper investigation, it may cause secondary damage. In this situation, for the first time, a decision was made to approve a general rehabilitation plan for a large debtor who was unable to apply for personal rehabilitation due to debt incurred due to excessive investment following the SG incident. Attention is being paid to whether the approval decision will open a path to rehabilitation for those in debt despite difficult situations such as negative public opinion on personal debt exemption due to excessive investment and coordination with securities companies and rehabilitation courts due to unprecedented circumstances. Regarding this issue, attorney Daeryun of Law Firm (Limited) said, “I believe that the approval decision was reached as a result of close communication with the investigators and administrators and persuading the securities company, which is the largest creditor,” and added, “I hope that this decision will provide a ray of hope to those who are experiencing difficulties due to debt arising from investments and provide an opportunity for a new start.” Beyond Post Reporter Kim Shin news@beyondpost.co.kr [View full article] - Will there be an opportunity for rehabilitation of debtors with large losses, the first approval decision announced? 2026-04-23T10:50:12.980Z https://www.daeryunlaw.com/en/broadcast/1486 The Korea Communications Standards Commission (Chairman Ryu Hee-rim) held an appointment ceremony for special committee members in five subcommittees at the Broadcasting Center in Mok-dong, Seoul on the 20th.

The Korea Association for the Rehabilitation of the Disabled, established in 1954, is Korea's first organization for the disabled. It has been holding the RI Korea Rehabilitation Conference every September, a forum for public discussion to explore various domestic and international disability issues and alternatives. The 52nd Rehabilitation Conference, prepared in conjunction with the RI Korea Expert Committee, which includes 218 professors and center directors from all over the country, consisted of a total of 9 sessions, and discussed major issues in each detailed field such as health, occupation, and education, as well as macro issues such as constitutional amendment and harmonization of UNCRPD domestic laws based on the basic rights of persons with disabilities. The planning session to discuss basic rights as citizens of the Republic of Korea through UNCRPD was chaired by Kim Dong-ho, CEO of the Disability Mainstreaming Policy Forum, and Professor Woo Woo-hyung of Nazarene University gave a presentation. Subsequently, Lee Yong-seok, policy committee member of the Korea Forum for the Rights of Persons with Disabilities, senior lawyer Choi Bo-yoon of the law firm, and Kyeong-min Yu, team leader of the Korea Development Institute for the Disabled, appeared as discussants. In his presentation, Professor Woo Joo-hyung pointed out the reality, saying, “Even today, 15 years after the UNCRPD came into effect, there is a lack of a national-level action plan.” “Not only that, it is difficult for Korea to know whether the current domestic law conflicts with the UNCRPD, and which law needs supplementation.” To improve this, Professor Woo announced the launch of a task force team with the Korea Rehabilitation Association for the Disabled to seek ways to improve domestic laws to realize UNCRPD. Professor Woo mentioned controversial laws that urgently need improvement, such as the Enforcement Decree of the Maternal and Child Health Act, which conflicts with the right to life, and Article 732 of the Commercial Act, which conflicts with the right to health, and explained, “In order to improve laws that are in conflict with the UNCRPD or require supplementation, we plan to take a multi-year approach with a two-track investigation and analysis TF team and an on-site TF team.” The research and analysis TF team plans to focus on establishing indicators and legal amendments to determine whether there is a conflict of laws, and the proposed legal amendments will be implemented through the field TF team composed of disabled people's solidarity. During the discussion, policy committee member Lee Yong-seok emphasized the urgency of harmonizing UNCRPD with domestic law, saying, “Various issues that are incorporated in our lives, including the issue of differential treatment of disabled persons registered as foreigners, the controversy over judicial hospitalization of psychosocially disabled people, and the protected birth system that can be abused to legally abandon children with disabilities, are issues that conflict with UNCRPD.” Lawyer Choi Bo-yoon said, “UNCRPD is an international treaty that is incorporated into domestic law without separate implementing legislative procedures.” He said, “It is unfortunate that there is no government position or regulations in case of conflicting domestic laws, lack of discussion to prepare the basis for action on conflicting laws, and few specific cases have been discovered.” He added, “I hope that full-scale discussions on improving domestic law through the operation of this TF team will become more public and attract interest from the government and the National Assembly as it is a big step in harmonizing UNCRPD domestic law.” Yu Kyung-min, head of the UNCRPD team, who was the last discussant, said, “Last June, UNCRPD team leader Kyung-min Yoo said, “I think it is essential to reorganize the legal system for harmonization of UNCRPD domestic laws, which is an international issue not only in Korea but also with the UN Conference of States Parties on the Rights of Persons with Disabilities being held on the topic of harmonization of domestic laws. However, there is still confusion about terminology,” he said. “I hope that the concepts and indicators will be clearly defined in the future activities for harmonization of UNCRPD domestic laws.” Kim In-gyu, president of the Korea Rehabilitation Association for Persons with Disabilities, who hosted the discussion, said, “Harmonization of UNCRPD domestic laws is a disability policy to guarantee the basic rights of persons with disabilities.” “Solidarity with the disabled community is essential by presenting a blueprint,” he said, adding, “I hope everyone in the disabled community will join us so that we can lead the National Assembly and the government to move proactively as one.” [Reporter Park Seong-yong, Disabled Newspaper/Welfare News] [View full article] - Korea Association for the Rehabilitation of Persons with Disabilities, discusses ‘direction of improving domestic law’ to realize UNCRPD 2026-05-10T15:15:01.724Z https://www.daeryunlaw.com/en/broadcast/1068 Recently, there has been a series of tragic news triggered by reports of indiscriminate child abuse.

Previously, teachers in charge were solely responsible for complaints from parents, and even in cases of malicious false accusations, the superintendent of education was arbitrarily ordered to be dismissed based on the severity of the case, thereby infringing on other students' right to learn and the teacher's right to teach. By supplementing these contents, the consultative body will review the case and decide whether or not to dismiss the teacher, thereby preventing teachers from being unfairly harmed and ensuring students' stable learning rights. In addition, if a school principal reduces or conceals violations of educational activities, he or she will be subject to disciplinary action. A mutual aid project to protect teachers from lawsuits related to educational activities has been implemented to provide the basis for entrustment to the School Safety Mutual Aid Association, etc. Expectations are high that this will significantly improve the current situation where even proper guidance on living is not possible due to excessive restrictions and indiscriminate reporting. However, there are voices saying that the standards are still ambiguous. The position is that prompt revision of the Child Welfare Act and the Child Abuse Punishment Act is necessary. Last April, Mr. A, who was a second-grade homeroom teacher at an elementary school in Seoul, said to Boy B, who was bullying his friends and repeatedly disrupting class, "This is why the kids hate you," and "There are parents who want to open a school violence committee because of Boy B." Due to this incident, Mr. A was dismissed from his position as a homeroom teacher for the first time in 40 years of his teaching career, but after explaining that it was part of legitimate discipline, the prosecution decided not to indict him. In relation to this, Mr. A's legal representative said, "With the revision of the Child Welfare Act and the Child Abuse Punishment Act in progress, legal judgment on emotional abuse is becoming more important. If you are identified as a perpetrator, you will suffer secondary damage such as witch hunts and identity theft." He said, "It is important to organize the facts, accurately understand the motive and circumstances that led to the act, and take the first response."

The waste disposal site information transmission system is a system to prevent illegal waste generation by preventing workplace waste handlers from entering false waste handover and receipt amounts and collecting and transporting waste using unlicensed vehicles. It was implemented last year starting with construction waste, and will be expanded to include designated waste starting next month. In addition, starting from the 29th, in order to promote the recycling of construction waste, an alternative fine for business suspension, which was previously up to 100 million won, will be imposed within the range of 5% of sales (up to 200 million won) in case of violation of the Construction Waste Act. Accordingly, when the administrative disposition of 1, 3, and 6 months of business suspension is replaced with a fine, fines of 20 million won, 50 million won, and 100 million won were imposed, but from now on, a fine equivalent to 2%, 3%, and 5% of the average annual sales of the previous three years will be imposed. Illegal unlicensed waste treatment plants and illegal dumping of waste are still prevalent, and it is expected that the implementation of this system and amendment of the bill will be effective in preventing damage to land owners and normalizing the circulation of waste. Companies operating unlicensed waste disposal businesses are carefully dividing roles. On the 22nd, in Changwon, a company was caught illegally landfilling 17,500 tons of waste gypsum at a campsite construction site over several months. Those who dispose of waste to these companies at low rates may also be prosecuted. If you sign a contract without knowing that it is an unlicensed company, there is a high possibility that you will be subject to legal punishment. Last June, in Suwon, Mr. A, who runs an unlicensed waste disposal business, and Mr. B, the executive director of a company that signed a business waste consignment contract, were indicted on charges of violating the Waste Management Act. Mr. A was sentenced to imprisonment for illegally dumping business waste, including waste synthetic resin, on the complainants' land after signing a contract by offering a lower price than the fair market price. Mr. B claimed that he introduced the company to entrust waste disposal without knowing that it was an unlicensed business. Considering various sentencing conditions, Mr. B was found not guilty. In response to this, Daeryun Law Firm (Limited), the legal representative, explained, "Even if you signed a contract without knowing that it was an unlicensed waste disposal company, you will be punished for violating the Waste Management Act. In addition, you may be subject to administrative measures such as business suspension or license cancellation. When signing a contract, it is important to determine whether it is a normal company." He continued, "Under the Serious Accident Punishment Act, business owners or management managers must take management measures necessary to fulfill their obligations under safety and health-related laws. “It also includes the Waste Management Act,” he said, adding, “The weight of punishment and legal responsibility has increased with the implementation of the Serious Accident Punishment Act, so if you have been wrongfully implicated in an allegation, we recommend a prompt response.” [Click here to see full article] - Crackdown on illegal waste dumping... “Punishment for dealing with unlicensed companies without knowledge.” 2026-05-14T04:07:06.093Z https://www.daeryunlaw.com/en/broadcast/808 On the 21st, the Anti-Corruption and Civil Rights Commission approved an amendment to the Enforcement Decree of the Anti-Graft and Corruption Act (Kim Young-ran Act), which aims to increase the upper limit value of agricultural and fishery product gifts that public officials can receive from the current 100,000 won to 150,000 won. The Lunar New Year and Chuseok holidays will also be increased from 200,000 won to 300,000 won. According to the legal community on the 30th, the amendment increased the amount that a specific person can use as a gift, but confusion in daily life and work is expected to continue for the time being. The Anti-Corruption and Graft Act came into effect on September 28, 2016 at the suggestion of the Anti-Corruption and Civil Rights Commission in 2012, but has been revised several times over the seven years since its enforcement, causing frequent confusion in the field. In particular, although this revision is said to be an amendment to the enforcement ordinance to prevent the economic downturn and revitalize domestic demand, there are also negative reactions such as those arguing that the Anti-Graft Act is useless and that it is abolished, saying that it undermines the very foundation of the purpose of introducing the Anti-Graft Act. There is also public opinion that the anti-graft law is ineffective and that fundamental measures must be taken. According to the ‘Results of last year’s inspection of the operation of the Anti-Graft Act of Public Institutions’ announced by the Anti-Corruption and Civil Rights Commission, the total number of reports of violations of the Anti-Graft Act received last year was 1,404, a rebound in four years. This is an increase of 19 cases compared to the previous year. Among them, the number of reports of receiving bribes was 967, an increase of 96.9% compared to the previous year. On the other hand, cases of improper solicitation decreased by 52.54% from the previous year to 369 cases. Recently, the anti-graft law has received a lot of attention as the ‘private education cartel’, in which current teachers receive money from companies to create questions, has been attracting attention. Anyone subject to the bill, including public officials, journalists, and national, public, and private schools, who receives money or valuables exceeding 1 million won at a time or 3 million won per year, regardless of job-relatedness or compensation, will be subject to imprisonment for up to 3 years or a fine of up to 30 million won. There are still cases of confusion in the field as to what acts are included in violation of the Anti-Graft Act. There are cases where it is reported that someone simply received a gift exceeding 1 million won. Last May, confusion arose in Incheon when teachers reported that they had given gifts totaling 1 million won to Mr. A, the kindergarten director, on several occasions, including holidays, Teacher's Day, and birthdays. Some teachers stated that they gave gifts out of fear of bullying in the workplace, which was a disadvantageous situation for Mr. A, but the case was closed as the charges of violating the Anti-Graft Act were not filed at the police stage. He was also able to avoid fines. At the time, the court determined that there was no evidence to acknowledge that the amount paid per teacher for each gift exceeded the value of the gift specified in the enforcement ordinance. Since it could not be proven that there was coercion by Mr. A, it was decided not to impose a fine on Mr. A, saying that it could not be said that the gift was provided for the smooth performance of duties based solely on the subjective circumstances of the teachers, such as workplace bullying. Daeryun Law Firm (Lihan) advised, “As the enforcement ordinance is revised this time, it is expected that there will be an increase in cases where application is ambiguous or reports due to confusion,” and “If you are wrongfully accused, not only administrative measures but also disadvantages in status will be imposed, so you must clearly understand the certain allowable range set by the law and respond accurately during the investigation process.” [View full article] - Amendment of the Enforcement Decree of the Anti-Graft Act… Confusion at the Daeryun Law Firm site seems likely to continue | Aju Economy (ajunews.com) 2026-05-08T23:39:24.483Z https://www.daeryunlaw.com/en/broadcast/697 [Reporter Ki Hyeon-hee, Raon Newspaper] Daeryun Law Firm (Limited) Chan-woo Jeong (41st, 8th time), Byeong-jun Ko (49th, 9th time), and Park Dong-il (37th, 8th time), managing attorneys, said, "The success or failure of a law firm depends on customer-centered service and win rate.

Jeonse scams often target the working class and those new to society. Last May, a group of people in Daejeon who committed a rental fraud against people in their 20s and 30s were caught by the police. They were accused of stealing 3 billion won from 37 people who were new to society. Crimes involving organized and planned lease fraud are increasing, and the scale of damage is significant. As of last July, the number of applications to the court for a lease registration order exceeded 5,000, reaching an all-time high. Lease registration is a system in which a tenant who has not received a deposit back after the end of the lease contract indicates that there is an unreturned deposit bond in the register. As the Housing Lease Protection Act was revised and implemented in July, it became possible to register a lease before the court's decision on the lease registration order was notified. If you are having difficulty returning the deposit because you cannot contact the landlord, this can be resolved through court public notice. Service by public notice is when the court posts the content to be served on a bulletin board or official gazette when the complaint cannot be delivered, and then the content is deemed to have been delivered. Looking at the lease fraud case that occurred in Gyeonggi-do last March, the lessee received a certificate of all registration details from the real estate agent who brokered the lease contract, and it was confirmed that the fact that the lease contracted building was seized due to non-payment was recorded. The landlord explained several times that the seizure would be resolved soon, but as the resolution continued to be delayed, the tenant filed a lawsuit seeking the return of the security deposit. When the landlord did not receive the complaint, he applied for service by public notice and was able to get his deposit worth hundreds of millions of won back. Daeryun, a law firm (Liuhan) in charge of the case, said, “Heavy sentences are being handed down one after another for lease fraud offenders, but victims are having difficulty returning the deposit.” He added, “The types of lease fraud are very diverse and a cautious approach is needed as prompt legal response, including evidence collection, is necessary.” [View full article] - Charter fraud still persists...

However, as juvenile crime becomes more serious and emerges as a serious social problem, voices calling for fundamental solutions and strengthened sanctions are growing. In particular, crimes committed by juveniles under the law are on the rise, with recent incidents of juveniles assaulting police officers, but criticism has also been raised that punishments are lenient. Under the current law, punishment for juveniles under the law is possible from the age of 10 for protection of less than 6 months, and protection for juveniles for up to 2 years from the age of 12. Since they are not subject to punishment, no criminal record is left. Accordingly, the Ministry of Justice proposed a revision to the Juvenile Act that would lower the age of juveniles from under 14 to under 13. However, the controversy over the pros and cons is intensifying, with the Supreme Court submitting a dissenting opinion to the National Assembly, saying that a fundamental solution cannot be achieved. Although criminal punishment is impossible, this does not mean that there are no sanctions. It is possible to file a civil suit for damages against a juvenile boy and his guardian (supervisor). According to a recent school violence case ruling, students and their parents who were victims of school violence filed a lawsuit for damages against the students who committed school violence and their guardians (parents) and received damages. Looking specifically, the perpetrators continued to harass the victims, and the School Violence Measures Review Committee approved the first and second emergency measures for juvenile protection and decided on measure number 3. The court acknowledged that the victim and his parents suffered mental pain. The court ruled that the offending students were liable for damages, saying, “Because the offending students were minors of only 13 years of age and were under the protective supervision of their parents, the psychological damage suffered by the victimized students and their parents due to the offending act in this case is causally related to the violation of the duty of supervision by the offending students’ parents.” In other words, juvenile crimes are not subject to criminal punishment, but can be subject to civil litigation, and victims can recover from damage through lawsuits for damages, compulsory execution, etc. Help: Daeryun Law Firm (Lihan) | [View full article] - How to recover from damage, such as juvenile crime and compensation claims (sentv.co.kr) 2026-05-14T06:42:46.513Z https://www.daeryunlaw.com/en/broadcast/626 [Star Daily News = Reporter Hwang Gyu-jun] With the abolition of the crime of adultery, criminal punishment has become impossible if one of the couples commits unfaithfulness. Instead, it is possible to file a civil claim for damages for mental suffering. A lawsuit claiming alimony for an adulterer can be filed even if the couple is not divorced. Typically, more than 30 million won in alimony is claimed in lawsuits between an adulterous man and an adulterous woman, but it is rare for the full amount to be cited. Even if an affair is recognized, it is common for the amount to be reduced by about half depending on the explanation. However, if the causal relationship between the infidelity and the breakdown of the marriage is clearly proven, the full amount claimed may be cited. Recently, a precedent was issued in the Chuncheon District Court in which the entire amount claimed was cited. The Chuncheon District Court accepted Plaintiff A's claim to pay 30 million won and court costs in a lawsuit seeking damages filed against Defendant B, who had been having an affair with the Plaintiff's spouse. The full story is as follows. After hearing about the affair between her husband and Person B from an acquaintance, Person A interrogated her husband and Person B. The two then angrily denied the affair, telling Mr. A not to frame them, but they continued to meet without Mr. A's knowledge. Mr. A decided to file an adultery lawsuit after learning that the two people who had criticized him were actually having an affair. As a result of Mr. A actively explaining that Mr. B's actions were the reason for the breakdown of Mr. A's marital relationship, the court ruled that "Mr. B clearly violated Mr. A's rights as a spouse, and therefore has an obligation to compensate the plaintiff for the mental damage suffered as a result," and upheld the full amount of alimony requested by Mr. A. The most important issue in the lawsuit is the objective nature of the alleged facts. It is proof. The plaintiff filing a lawsuit must prove whether he or she continued to meet even after knowing that the defendant, the other party to the lawsuit, was a married woman or a married man. In this case, if an illegal method is used, he or she may be subject to criminal punishment for violation of the Communications Secret Protection Act or defamation. Daeryun Law Firm (Liuhan) said, “We requested 30 million won considering the fact that the plaintiff can only receive compensation for the mental damage suffered due to the abolition of the adultery law.” “We cooperated in securing and analyzing evidence and actively argued based on specific data such as text messages, conversation transcripts, and black box videos to uncover the causal relationship,” he said.He went on to say, "In some cases, if the adulterer and his or her spouse meet again in the future, a penalty may be set that requires payment of expenses for each number of meetings. Various legal measures tailored to the individual's situation may be considered." What are the response plans after the abolition of adultery? :: Star Daily News (stardailynews.co.kr) 2026-05-14T06:17:17.908Z https://www.daeryunlaw.com/en/broadcast/612 The crime of impunity against doctors, which cannot be punished if the victim of the stalking crime does not want it, will be abolished. However, as concerns arise about false accusations, the importance of first response is increasing. According to the legal community on the 11th, the Legislation and Judiciary Committee of the National Assembly recently passed a bill to amend the Act on Punishment of Stalking Crimes (Stalking Punishment Act), which aims to abolish the crime of impunity against doctors and establish new types of online stalking acts. The amendment also includes provisions defining the act of sending voice, text, photo, or video messages using social networking services (SNS) as a type of stalking crime. In addition, providing, distributing, or posting the other person's personal information and location information to a third party, or impersonating the other person by stealing their identity, is also clearly defined as stalking. With the abolition of the crime of impunity against a doctor, perpetrators will no longer be able to commit secondary stalking crimes or retaliatory crimes under the pretext of agreement. Although the problem of withdrawing complaints due to pressure from the perpetrator has been resolved, there are concerns that false accusations may follow. For example, in a case that occurred in Gyeongbuk last year, suspect A met accuser B at a gathering of acquaintances and continued an affair. Then, when the affair was discovered, Mr. A asked Mr. B to help him avoid divorce. However, Mr. A divorced, and after that, Mr. B continued to try to contact Mr. A. When Mr. A did not respond, Mr. B filed a complaint, claiming that the messages and phone calls he had shared with Mr. A in the past were stalking. This case is a violation of the stalking punishment law in which the victim, Mr. A, actually became a suspect. If the crime of impunity against a doctor is applied, there is a possibility that the case will have to go to trial even if an agreement is reached with the victim. However, due to a careful initial response, the case did not proceed to the trial stage and ended with a non-indictment. Therefore, with the abolition of the crime of impunity against a doctor, the initial response to prove innocence in such false accusations is expected to become more important. Daeryun Law Firm, which defended Mr. A at the time, said, “Even if victims of stalking maintain their intention to punish during the investigation stage, they often express their intention not to be punished during the trial,” adding, “It is expected that secondary offenses will be prevented with the abolition of the crime of impunity against a doctor, but there are concerns that the mental pain of suspects who have been falsely accused will be significant.” He added, "Like the previous case, it is expected that it will be important to establish at the police investigation stage that the suspect's actions were justified and that this action did not cause anxiety or fear in the other party, so that the initial response is carried out so that the case does not proceed to the trial stage."

This is the result of overturning the first trial conviction. The real-time search challenge is to rank a portal site's real-time trending search terms, and the doctor's room management has instructed the victim's name to be searched as a keyword to rank for search terms. The 4-1 Criminal Division of the Seoul High Court acquitted defendant A, who was indicted on charges of violating the Act on Sexual Protection of Children and Adolescents (distributing and displaying pornography for children and adolescents) in December last year. According to the court, Mr. A followed the instructions of the doctor's room operator Jo Joo-bin and others for the 'real-examination challenge' in order to attract an unspecified number of people to the doctor's room. Mr. A searched the victim's name at a specific time, ranked it as a real-time trending search term on the portal site, and facilitated the distribution and display of pornography for children and adolescents. At the time, the doctor's room management ordered the promotion of the real test challenge and link for promotional purposes. It is known that the participants participated to achieve the target number of cumulative chats, and Mr. A also searched related keywords several times. Defendant A denied the charges, saying that all he had done was search the doctor's room's Real Exam Challenge keyword a few times and that he had not contributed to the event. The court ruled in favor of defendant A. The court said, "The evidence presented by the prosecutor alone is insufficient to evaluate that the defendant's act of searching the victim's name in the search box of an Internet portal site made a realistic contribution to the chat room and the promotion, distribution and display of pornography using children and adolescents about the victim." The prosecution immediately appealed to the Supreme Court. The prosecution argued that there was a clear causal relationship between the defendant's search actions and the criminals' actions of distributing sexually exploitative materials. On the other hand, defendant A's position is that "there is no causal relationship between the act of entering search terms and the distribution acts of regular criminals," and "since it was not ranked in the actual search ranking, it is not related to the increase in participation in the doctor's room." Daeryun Law Firm (Yuhan), representing Mr. A, argued, “It cannot be said that the defendant’s act of entering search terms was promoted to an unspecified number of people or was introduced into the doctor’s room,” and “It cannot be said that the determination of the criminals to commit crimes related to the distribution and display of pornography using children and adolescents has been strengthened.” Meanwhile, whether or not to recognize the causal relationship is up to the Supreme Court. In particular, after the Doctor's Room incident and the N Room incident, it was revised to sentence only imprisonment without a fine for producing, distributing, purchasing, possessing, or viewing sexually exploitative materials targeting children and adolescents. Therefore, this ruling is attracting attention.

Representative attorney Jeong is a rare law school graduate among the management representatives of major domestic law firms. He passed the bar exam in 2019 and rose to the position of head four years later. It is even more unusual in that he is a general management representative who is responsible for overall management beyond the representative attorney commonly used within a law firm. Daeryun Law Firm was established in Jinju in March 2018. It was founded by CEO Jae-guk Shim (42, 2nd term), who was in charge of management before CEO Jeong. The following year, offices were opened in Busan and Seoul, and the company expanded rapidly and currently has 32 offices nationwide. As of the end of April, 137 Korean lawyers were affiliated. Based on the number of lawyers, it is the 12th largest in the country. As of June, there are 165 people. According to Daeryun, last year’s sales were close to 35 billion won. Representative Attorney Jeong has led the growth of Daeryun from the beginning of its establishment, keeping pace with CEO Sim. Representative Attorney Jeong said, "In the beginning, CEO Shim and I traveled around the country to find offices and recruit. It took 4 to 5 years just to lay the foundation for the law firm. We focused on providing uniform services and prices." He emphasized Daeryun’s unique system. Representative Attorney Jeong explained, "The systems that support our law firm are largely divided into two. They are the 'customer management system' and the 'case management system,'" adding, "We actively adopt online marketing to promote ourselves to customers and collaborate using messengers and work tools." He continued, "A strong system is important to manage offices across the country. Although we are a latecomer, we have actively reflected the changes of the times, such as digital systems, to lead the market." We focused on reorganizing the system and maximizing the capabilities of our members. This is because I believe that the success or failure of a law firm depends on its members. Representative lawyer Jeong said, "There is no seniority system at Daeryun. We do not give important positions just because of high rank. We promote members who understand Daeryun's system well and deliver good results and assign them to important positions such as director." He continued, "We tried to improve the treatment of lawyers as much as possible. Daeryun's basic salary for a first-year new lawyer is 93.6 million won before tax, and when performance bonuses and allowances are added, it approaches 100 million won. Performance bonuses are paid according to Daeryun's own standards, and an overall flexible work system is implemented. The satisfaction level is quite high for lawyers who are raising children." Long-term service is also encouraged through positions divided into general, senior, responsible, chief, general manager, and chief general manager, and bonuses and sabbatical leave paid to those with 3 years of service. Lastly, Representative Attorney Jeong emphasized ‘next level.’ He expressed his ambition, saying, "The theme of the workshop we recently held was Next Level. Now that we have achieved growth in terms of scale and sales, it is important to take a leap to the next level. We will solidify our specialized areas such as corporate legal affairs and strengthen Daeryun's brand image to achieve a new level of growth."

What’s unusual about this approach is that they also receive damages in real coins to avoid tracking (financial authorities).” The crime that made the victims cry twice continued for nearly a year while avoiding the authorities' pursuit, and so far there have been 72 victims and the damage amounted to 2.6 billion won. The police confirmed that there were tens of thousands of names on the list of investors used by this group to commit the crime, and are expanding the investigation as they believe there are more victims. The police arrested 14 members of a voice phishing organization and detained 7 people, including the leader, a woman in her 30s, and are also investigating how the list of investment advisors was leaked.

According to Daeryun Law Firm on the 22nd, the main details of the case are as follows. The suspect's company was merged with a stock company under the condition of merging while establishing a new corporation. However, as a conflict arose, it was agreed that the suspect would take charge of Branch A and operate it as an independent property system, that is, as a separate corporation. Sales and profits were accounted for separately from the head office, but the company head office experienced financial difficulties and Branch A, which was in charge of the suspect, saw an increase in sales. Accordingly, the head office claimed that the company had caused billions of won in damages through accounts receivables, paybacks, etc., and filed 22 lawsuits against the suspects, including embezzlement and breach of trust. Rather, the suspect complained that he had suffered damages worth billions of won from the initial transfer and acquisition of the business. At the police investigation stage, 21 cases were not forwarded, and one case was not indicted without charges a week after being forwarded to the prosecution. The competent prosecutor's office said, “According to the data provided by the suspect's lawyer, it can be seen that an appropriate remittance was made and an appropriate tax invoice was issued accordingly,” and “It is difficult to acknowledge the fact of the suspect based solely on the plaintiff's speculative claims, and there is no sufficient evidence to otherwise acknowledge the fact of the suspect.” Daeryun Law Firm, which represented the suspect, explained, “A lawyer who was a senior prosecutor in the special department personally attended the investigation and accompanied the case from the beginning, responding to statements,” and added, “There seemed to be a problem with the suspect arbitrarily using the company’s sales and profits, but since he did not use the company’s sales and profits for his own purposes and used them to run the branch, he actively argued that there was no intention to illegally obtain the money, and it appears that he was able to get an acquittal.” View full article - 22 cases of breach of trust, including breach of trust, were acquitted... how was it possible 2026-05-09T12:11:10.113Z https://www.daeryunlaw.com/en/broadcast/589 Sexual crimes are representative violent crimes and refer to a series of criminal acts that violate the physical and sexual freedom of others and cause sexual shame or discomfort. They range from face-to-face sexual crimes such as rape, quasi-rape, and forcible harassment to digital sex crimes committed online. These sex crimes are severely punished under the Criminal Act and the Sexual Assault Act, but if the person who committed the crime is not an ordinary person but a government official working for the country, separate administrative measures will be imposed in addition to criminal punishment. According to the National Civil Service Act, which was revised in 2019, if a public official is sentenced to a fine of 1 million won or more for a sex crime, he or she will be subject to retirement or disqualification from appointment. ‘Sexual violence crimes’ as defined in Article 2 of the ‘Special Act on the Punishment of Sexual Violence Crimes’ are strongly restricted from being appointed as public officials if a fine of more than 1 million won is imposed. In addition, even if a person commits a ‘crime of distributing, selling or displaying pornography online’ rather than a face-to-face crime, if he or she is fined more than 1 million won as a ‘crime of sexual violence’, he or she cannot be appointed as a public official for three years. In this way, if a state civil servant is sentenced to a fine of more than 1 million won for a sex crime, it is a natural reason for retirement. However, if the victim is a minor rather than an adult, the zero tolerance principle is applied and the person is permanently expelled from public office, and the appointment of civil servants is restricted. Additionally, sexual crimes committed by state officials do not end with administrative measures against the individual perpetrator. If the head of an agency that has received a report of a sexual crime fails to take appropriate measures to prevent the possibility of concealing or condoning the incident or systematically attempts to cover up the problem, a personnel audit will be conducted by the Ministry of Personnel Management. If a problem is discovered, the name of the organization and related facts will be announced on the Ministry of Personnel Management website for at least three months. Kim Seong-ik, a lawyer at Daeryun Law Firm (Lihan), advised, "Allegations of sexual crimes by public officials are treated seriously and require both sides to respond, not only through criminal measures but also administrative measures. Therefore, it is best to seek legal assistance from a criminal and administrative lawyer with as much experience in handling related cases as possible."

What are the criteria for permanent expulsion? 2026-05-13T13:28:07.159Z https://www.daeryunlaw.com/en/broadcast/581 In Korea, there are many retired soldiers who were deployed in the Vietnam War and were injured or suffering from aftereffects. Among them, there are quite a few cases where patient registration has been refused in relation to compensation for damage caused by Agent Orange, and the problem has not yet been resolved. Agent Orange refers to a herbicide that is fired to kill trees. It is a highly toxic chemical weapon used in the Vietnam War. It contains a hazardous substance called dioxin, which is more toxic than cyanide. People who have been harmed by Agent Orange need to receive sufficient compensation and focus on treatment because the aftereffects have not yet gone away easily and have a significant impact on their daily lives. Therefore, if patient registration is denied, there is a high possibility that it will lead to an Agent Orange administrative lawsuit. If you are a victim of Agent Orange during the Vietnam War, you need to be prepared to legally explain your damages and then prepare for an Agent Orange administrative lawsuit. You must check whether you meet the standards to be recognized as a person suffering from the aftereffects of Agent Orange, and submit objective supporting documents so that you can be assessed a disability level. If you want to receive some relief from the physical and mental pain caused by Agent Orange, you can receive compensation for damage caused by Agent Orange from the Ministry of Patriots and Veterans Affairs, but the Ministry of Patriots and Veterans Affairs is likely to disapprove this. Therefore, it is important to seek rights by raising objections and contesting the effectiveness of the disposition through administrative trials and defoliant administrative litigation. Attorney Lee Il-kwon of Daeryun Law Firm (Lihan) advised, “If you are a victim of Agent Orange, you must register as a patient to receive not only financial compensation but also various social help, so you should not give up on this.” He added, “You must actively seek legal solutions to resolve the problem with a military lawyer.” He added, “No matter how long it has been since the war ended, we must ensure that our rights are properly protected by law.” View full article - Military refusal to register patients suffering from Agent Orange aftereffects, seeking legitimate rights through administrative litigation 2026-05-10T13:27:41.874Z https://www.daeryunlaw.com/en/broadcast/580 Law school graduates leading law firms in their 20s have appeared. They go beyond simply being named as CEO and lead the corporation as general managers. Law school graduates, who were once considered young lawyers, are creating new legal trends by rising to the top of major law firms in their 20s. At Daeryun Law Firm, the 12th largest law firm in Korea, lawyer Jeong Chan-woo (41, passed the 8th bar exam) took the position of general management representative. He, who had been active as Daeryun's representative attorney, began his term as the head of management on the 22nd of last month. As of April 30, Daeryun had 137 Korean lawyers. Based on the number of lawyers, it is the 12th largest in the country. As of June 7, it is showing rapid growth, with 158 Korean lawyers. Daeryun, founded in March 2018 by lawyer Shim Jae-guk (42, 2nd class), handles many cases in the criminal, divorce, and labor fields. It is specialized in the criminal field to the extent of operating a criminal specialty center. It is classified as a network law firm like YK and Roel in that it promotes itself as a single law firm, opens branch offices in major locations across the country, and maintains an organic cooperation system. Following Attorney Shim Jae-guk, Attorney Jeong Chan-woo, who leads Daeryun, has handled a wide range of cases in the civil and criminal fields, including professional negligence manslaughter, coin fraud, and fraudulent act cancellation lawsuits. He also worked as a criminal public defender at the Supreme Court and the Busan District Court. Currently, Daeryun has 15 ‘Chief Attorneys’, meaning representative attorneys. Among them, in addition to lawyers Chan-Woo Jeong and Jae-Guk Shim, lawyers Byung-Jun Ko (49, 9th episode) and Park Dong-il (37, 8th episode) also graduated from law school.

After the mandatory rental period has passed, it can be converted to sale with approval, and tenants who meet certain requirements can be given priority for conversion to sale. If a defect occurs in public rental housing, according to Articles 36 and 37 of the Apartment Housing Management Act, the tenant, etc. may request compensation for the defect from the project operator. In the past, tenants of public rental housing before conversion to sale did not have the right to demand repairs for defects from construction companies, even though they actually held the right to conversion to sale. With the new establishment of Article 36, Paragraph 2 of the former Apartment Housing Management Act (before it was amended by Act No. 14853 on February 10, 2018), it became possible to exercise the right to claim defect repairs for the first time. The fact that tenants of public rental housing can request repairs for defects is a welcome development in terms of tenant protection. However, when public rental housing is converted to sale, there is a problem in that the project entity's liability for defects is extended for an excessively long period of time, resulting in unreasonable results. According to Article 9-2 of the old Multi-unit Building Act (before it was revised by Act No. 12738 on June 3, 2014), ‘the exclusion period for defect repair claims shall be calculated from the date of delivery to the unit owner for the exclusive use portion, and from the date of use inspection or approval for use for the shared portion.’ This regulation shall enter into force six months after its promulgation in accordance with Article 1 of the Supplementary Provisions. However, in accordance with Article 3 of the Supplementary Provisions, the previous provisions shall apply with respect to collateral liability for buildings sold before the enforcement of the above Act. Therefore, the starting date for the exclusive portion of public rental housing sold after June 19, 2013 is the date of delivery to the first unit owner after conversion to sale. The project entity already had an obligation to repair defects to tenants even before conversion to sale pursuant to Article 36, Paragraph 2 of the old Apartment Housing Management Act (before it was amended by Act No. 14853 on February 10, 2018). In the end, due to the new Article 9-2 of the old Apartment Building Act, it is no different from having the lessee again bear the same defect warranty liability for a building that has been used for a long time as for a newly sold building. From the business entity's perspective, they have no choice but to complain because they will be burdened with compensation obligations for an excessively long period of time. In relation to this, some project entities argue that even after public rental housing is converted to sale, the starting date of the exclusive defect liability period should be regarded as the time of ‘first delivery after construction.’ This is based on the Supreme Court's decision in May 10, 2012, 2011Da66610, etc., which ruled that “even in the case of a complex building converted to sale after lease, the exclusion period for defects liability will be said to start from the time the complex building is delivered by lease, not from the time of sale conversion.” The above Supreme Court decision states, “The proviso to Article 671, Paragraph 1 of the Civil Act, which is applied mutatis mutandis to Article 9 of the Act on the Ownership and Management of Old Apartment Buildings (before it was amended by Act No. 7502 on May 26, 2005), uniformly sets the exclusion period for defect security liability to 10 years after ‘delivery’ without considering the type of defect or the time of occurrence of the defect. Article 9 of the former Apartment Building Act and the Civil Act “In light of the provisions of Articles 667 to 671, it is reasonable to interpret the above ‘delivery’ as meaning ‘the first delivery after construction,’ regardless of the causal relationship of the delivery.” However, this court's opinion is that after Article 9-2 of the old Apartment Building Act (before it was revised on June 3, 2014, Act No. 12738) was newly established, the Supreme Court's 2018Da245184 decision on April 29, 2020, etc. states that “in the case of units converted to sale, the date of delivery to the unit owner” in Article 9-2, Paragraph 2, Item 1 of the Revised Apartment Building Act The meaning appears to have naturally changed as the ruling was made to the effect that “it is appropriate to interpret the meaning as ‘the date when occupation began as a unit owner’ rather than ‘the date of first delivery as a lessee.’” In the future, it is expected that the conflict between project entities and subdivision owners surrounding public rental housing for the purpose of conversion to pre-sale will further intensify. A total of 74,574 houses are scheduled to be converted to sale after public rental for 10 years from 2019. There is an increasing number of cases requesting repair of defects in public rental housing that has been converted to sale to the Defect Review Dispute Mediation Committee established in accordance with Article 39 of the Apartment Housing Management Act. The Ministry of Justice, Ministry of Land, Infrastructure and Transport, and the Board of Audit and Inspection are also aware of this problem. There is a need to revise related laws, including Article 9-2 of the Apartment Building Act, as soon as possible.

This agreement was prepared with the purpose of making it easier for parents or students affected by school violence, juvenile protection cases, etc. to receive legal support services by overcoming the difficult barriers of the legal field. The main contents included ▷counseling support related to school violence, ▷provision of legal services to family members of Right Parents Association members, and ▷mutual joint marketing plan. Cho Seung-hyun, chairman of the Righteous Parents Association, said, "I would like to thank Daeryun Law Firm for actively supporting and willingly allowing the hotline counseling service," and added, "I hope that we will continue to think together about ways to contribute to public interest projects and the local community."

As it is not clear why he committed the crime by lying about his identity, we are focusing on uncovering the reason and purpose of the crime. Reporter Lee Jun-seok reports. **[Report] ** Jeong Yoo-jung appeared in front of the media for the first time since her identity was revealed on the 2nd. He left a short apology to the victim and the bereaved family, but did not open his mouth when asked why he committed the crime. ["(Why did you kill the victim?) …. (Why did you select the female victim as the target of the crime?) …."] What is known so far is that he felt the urge to commit murder and actually took action. As he showed unconventional behavior, such as disguising himself as a parent to lie about his identity and even wearing a school uniform when visiting the victim's home, some are analyzing that he may have had another purpose other than the 'impulse to kill', such as so-called 'changing his identity'. After being arrested, Jeong Yoo-jeong reportedly denied the crime during a police investigation, saying, "When I entered the victim's house, she was already dead." It is also known that "the person who committed the murder told him to abandon the body because he would let him live as a victim." The fact that the prosecution, which took over the case, deployed three prosecutors' offices and formed a 'dedicated investigation team' is interpreted as an attempt to specifically identify the motive for the crime, which has not yet been clearly revealed. [Lee Il-kwon/Attorney/Former Prosecutor: "(The prosecution) is expected to investigate this case with an emphasis on psychological analysis and motive. In the case of a murder case, the motive for the crime is the most important factor in determining the sentence."] The prosecution plans to conduct an investigation until the end of the detention period on the 11th, and extend the detention period once more if necessary. This is Lee Jun-seok of KBS News.

If you find it difficult to cover the interest and principal due on your debt even though you are engaged in economic activities, you can apply for debt adjustment through the personal rehabilitation procedure. Personal rehabilitation is a rehabilitation system that helps individual debtors who are at risk of bankruptcy due to financial difficulties to generate stable and continuous income in the future. A debtor whose personal rehabilitation application has been accepted can have the remaining debt forgiven if he or she continues to repay part of the debt for 3-5 years with the remaining amount of his or her income, excluding living expenses. In addition, debtors who have received personal rehabilitation can stop and prohibit compulsory execution by creditors, such as seizure, provisional seizure, and demand, and can also open bank accounts and use check cards. In addition, your family, including your spouse and children, will not be disadvantaged due to your debt. As much as the benefits are great, not everyone can apply for personal rehabilitation. It is limited to those who are likely to continuously receive a fixed and certain income as a salary earner or business income earner, the total amount of debt is less than KRW 1 billion in the case of unsecured debt and KRW 1.5 billion in the case of secured debt, and are in a state of insolvency (where there are more debts than assets). The application process is also difficult, requiring the preparation of specific and diverse documents, such as a list of personal rehabilitation creditors and asset lists, a detailed list of the debtor's income and expenditures, data proving salary earners and business income earners, and preparation of a detailed repayment plan. Another thing to be aware of is that even if personal rehabilitation is approved, the exemption decision may be canceled if the high repayment amount cannot be met. Therefore, a clear and realistic plan must be established on how to repay the amount when approved. Attorney Park Young-gyu of Daeryun Law Firm (Limited) advised, “As there are many documents that must be prepared for personal rehabilitation and bankruptcy-related issues and thorough preparations such as drawing up a feasible repayment plan are required, it is advisable to seek legal assistance from a lawyer specializing in insolvency and proceed carefully.” View full article - Personal rehabilitation following bankruptcy, procedures must be carried out carefully 2026-04-24T21:25:11.901Z https://www.daeryunlaw.com/en/broadcast/560 There is an obligation to ensure safety and health that must be observed by individual business or business owners or management managers of corporations or institutions, and the law stipulates management measures necessary to establish and operate a safety and health management system and fulfill obligations in accordance with safety and health-related laws. In particular, the Occupational Safety and Health Act, which prevents industrial accidents by establishing standards for industrial safety and health at a business or workplace and clarifying the location of responsibility, stipulates specific safety and health standards for workplaces, the employer's obligation to take action accordingly, and the person responsible for preventing industrial accidents at the workplace. If a worker dies due to failure to take safety measures under the Occupational Safety and Health Act, not only the employer but also the site manager who caused the worker's death will be punished. Although the site manager has a duty of care to prevent accidents from occurring, he or she neglects this duty, resulting in death or injury to workers, and is subject to punishment under criminal law for occupational negligence causing injury. For example, if an accident resulting in death or injury occurs at a construction site, the subcontractor's employer or manager is liable under criminal law, and managers who have a duty to ensure safety at the site, such as the site manager, are also responsible under the Occupational Safety and Health Act and criminal law. In fact, industrial sites are bound to have various factors that can lead to accidents due to the nature of the site, in addition to insufficient obligations to ensure safety and health. Therefore, the purpose of the Occupational Safety and Health Act and the setting of punishment targets is to prevent accidents in advance. Jihye Kwon, lawyer at Daeryun Law Firm (Limited), advised, “All personnel at industrial sites, including business managers as well as site managers, must not neglect their duty of care for safety and health to prevent worker accidents from occurring.” She also advised, “If an accident has already occurred at the site, the case should be carefully reviewed by a lawyer specializing in industrial accidents and labor, and legal action should be taken against the application of occupational negligence and malpractice.” View full article - Labor industrial accident in violation of Occupational Safety and Health Act, responsible manager punished for occupational negligence and malpractice 2026-05-07T08:32:18.828Z https://www.daeryunlaw.com/en/broadcast/556 In the official live, they openly emphasized 'fake'... "No problem" Experts say, “Possible violation of Design Protection Act and Unfair Competition Prevention Act” Amore, troubled by counterfeit cosmetics from China...must set an example [Edaily Reporter Moon Da-ae] [ Anchor ] Amore Pacific (090430), the number one cosmetics company in Korea, was found to have lured customers with ‘counterfeit’ free gifts. Although they claim that it is not a copy of a specific product, they actually promoted it on live shopping by saying that it has the same design as a luxury product. Experts judged that there was enough potential for a problem. There are criticisms that the performance rebound is excessive marketing. This is reporter Moon Da-ae. [Reporter] On the left is the ‘Quilted Bag’ from H&M Group’s premium fashion brand COS, and on the right is the ‘Embo Bag’, a free gift bag used for promotions by Amore Pacific’s Laneige. COS’s quilted bag is also known as the ‘Blackpink Jenny bag’ and is a representative bag of the famous COS. This shoulder bag is made from recycled polyester, and the entire bag has a soft quilted texture. It features a unique embossed design and round curved shape, and its representative color is sky blue, so it is also called ‘Cloud Bag’. The bags produced by Amore are also similar to Course's unique embossed design, color, and size. If placed side by side, there is a high risk of mistaking them for bags of the same brand. Since last March, Laneige has held a large-scale event to give away bags to promote its flagship product, Water Bank. We used this to attract customers not only through major online channels such as Amore's official mall and Olive Young, but also through live shopping broadcasts. “Do you think of the C brand (COS) bag? This is the bag that the celebrity whose name starts with J (Jenny) carries every day at the airport. It has the same design (as the COS bag)...” Live shopping openly emphasized that the course was a ‘counterfeit’, but Amore said there was no problem. An Amore official said, “It was just produced in the bag style, which is a recent trend, and did not imitate a specific brand. This was marketing conducted as part of an effort to ease Laneige’s performance.” Amore bags, which were produced in limited quantities, are currently sold out through word of mouth, and are being sold at oil prices on the second-hand market due to their great popularity. Experts pointed out that there was a possibility of violating the ‘Design Protection Act’ and the ‘Unfair Competition Prevention Act’. The Design Protection Act is a law that protects the appearance and appearance of ‘designs’, that is, physical objects and industrial products. ‘Designs that were known or publicly implemented domestically or abroad before design registration or application’ are also subject to protection, and include not only previously applied designs but also publicly known designs. In the case of the COS quilted bag, it is not a typical bag, but a product designed through a sewing method called ‘quilting’, and as it plays a leading role in design in the market, there is a high probability that it will violate the Design Protection Act. There is also a possibility of violating the ‘Unfair Competition Prevention Act’. It was designed to prevent unfair competition that disrupts the market. ‘Transferring, renting, displaying, importing or exporting products that imitate the shape of products manufactured by others’ is one of the acts of unfair competition. If the well-known nature of Course Qualified Bags is acknowledged, there is ample room for problems for Amore, and gaining commercial profits from results created through the investment and efforts of others can be problematic as ‘misappropriation of results.’ Therefore, it was pointed out that there is a need to proactively look into violations of the Design Protection Act and, to the extent not protected by the law, to preliminary look into whether there are any violations of the Unfair Competition Prevention Act. [ Dongjin Kim / Attorney at Daeryun Law Firm ] “I think we need to look into whether Amore Pacific has sufficient differences from the quality design of the previous course, and whether Amore Pacific has violated (the course’s) quality rights and secured economic benefits through this. If we look at it from this perspective, there seems to be enough room for a dispute.” In the case of design, as plagiarism is rampant and standards are ambiguous, he emphasized that companies' self-reflection should be prioritized rather than re-establishing clear legal standards, and that consumers should also be careful. [ Dongjin Kim / Attorney at Daeryun Law Firm ] “In the end, this is one of the long-standing issues in art that has always existed between the dilemma of plagiarism and development. If the National Assembly or the courts carelessly give in to one side’s victory, they will inevitably suppress the oppression of the other side. In the end, design professionals will need to make efforts to recover on their own, and it appears that this will require continued public interest and continued monitoring by the media.” Amore is struggling with counterfeit cosmetics from China. As it is a leading K-beauty company, it seems necessary for the company to establish strict standards for itself. This is Moon Da-ae of Edaily TV.

Attorney Park Seong-dong, who newly joined Daeryun, was a former police officer at the Seoul Metropolitan Police Agency. After being appointed as a prosecutor, he served as a prosecutor at the Busan District Prosecutors' Office and Suwon Central District Prosecutors' Office, and then as a chief prosecutor at the Daegu District Prosecutors' Office, Cheongju District Prosecutors' Office, and Seoul High Prosecutors' Office. An official from Daeryun said, “By recruiting Attorney Park, who has experience in both the police and prosecution investigation procedures, it is expected that he will be able to flexibly respond to the changing investigative environment, such as the adjustment of the investigative authority of the police and prosecutors.” He added, “Having experienced many high-stakes cases such as international litigation, he is an excellent multiplayer in criminal cases such as violent crimes, property crimes, sex crimes, and traffic crimes, as well as civil and domestic cases, and is expected to play an active role in situations where complex cases from multiple fields are combined.” Daeryun Law Firm (Lihan) has 30 offices across the country and operates a dedicated center centered on specialized lawyers for each case, including criminal affairs, corporate law, military criminal affairs, and finance.

Because of the importance and expertise of medical practices that deal with human life and bodies, the qualifications of practitioners are limited. The medical practice of a person whose license qualification has been suspended or revoked is considered unlicensed medical practice, and even if he or she is a medical practitioner, if he or she colludes in the medical practice of a person who is not a medical practitioner or unlicensed medical practice outside the scope of the medical practitioner's duties, he or she may be held legally responsible as a co-principal of the unlicensed medical practice. The prohibition on unlicensed medical practice under the Medical Service Act was enacted to regulate the high risk of medical practice by non-medical practitioners, but even medical practitioners working in the field are punished for unlicensed medical practice if they engage in an act that goes beyond the scope of their respective duties and is within the scope of practice of another medical practitioner. For example, even though you are a doctor, if you condone or instruct hospital staff (nurses, etc.) to perform medical practices that are outside the permitted range, you may be found guilty of an accomplice and may be subject to criminal punishment for violating the Medical Service Act, as well as being subject to significant disadvantages such as administrative measures such as suspension of medical license or suspension of work at medical institutions. Article 2 of the Medical Service Act defines only doctors, dentists, oriental medicine doctors, midwives, and nurses as medical personnel, and stipulates the scope of work for each. A doctor may instruct or delegate a nurse to assist in medical treatment, but it is not permissible to instruct or delegate a nurse to perform the medical treatment itself, which only a doctor can do. For these reasons, medical personnel who run medical institutions have a duty to properly manage and supervise the unlicensed medical practices of not only themselves but also their employees, and if unlicensed medical practices are committed due to failure to do so, they may be punished as accomplices. Attorney Ryu Si-jeong of Daeryun Law Firm advised, “Unlicensed medical practice not only carries civil liability for damages incurred by the patient, but also separate punishment is imposed if the patient’s condition worsens or death occurs, so you must thoroughly respond with the help of a medical lawyer.” View full article - Unlicensed medical practice that is harmful to life and body and severe punishment for violation of medical law 2026-05-11T09:41:28.045Z https://www.daeryunlaw.com/en/broadcast/532 [Job Post] Reporter Kim Myeong-gi = Today, there are quite a few cases where workers are injured or lose their lives due to accidents in industrial workplaces. Even if it is not a physical accident, you may be stressed due to too much work, collapse due to overwork, or become ill due to harmful substances. These are collectively called industrial accidents. Workers who are victims of industrial accidents can receive compensation for the damage they have suffered and can also demand that those responsible be punished. First of all, you can basically apply for industrial accident insurance and receive industrial accident insurance benefits, and you can claim disaster compensation under the Labor Standards Act and damages under the Civil Act. In particular, if a worker's work-related injury, disease, or death is caused by the illegal acts of the employer or a third party, civil damages can be claimed. This is separate from the insurance benefits you receive after applying for and being approved for an industrial accident. Industrial accident insurance benefits not only do not include mental damage, but there are also other damages that cannot be met through compensation alone. Therefore, if there is any damage compensation that can be received through a civil lawsuit separate from the insurance benefits that can be received through industrial accident approval, you must actively claim it. Civil damages for industrial accidents are divided into active damages, passive damages, and alimony and provide full compensation, and include mental damages. The amount of alimony is determined by the trial court at its discretion, taking into account various circumstances. However, civil liability for damages is recognized only when there is intent or negligence, so if the injured worker cannot prove that there was intent or negligence on the part of the employer, it may result in a loss. Therefore, it is important to quickly secure relevant evidence, clearly identify responsibility, and carefully consider it before filing a claim. Attorney Hyun Byeong-hee of Daeryun Law Firm advised, “Civil damage compensation, which is separate from the recognition of industrial accidents, must properly prove the causal relationship between the facts of the damage and the employer, so it must be proceeded carefully with the help of an industrial accident and labor lawyer with extensive experience in post-industrial damage compensation cases.” View full article - [Legal Knowledge] If you are a victim of an industrial accident, you must receive recognition of the industrial accident and separate compensation for damages. 2026-05-12T17:31:44.832Z https://www.daeryunlaw.com/en/broadcast/531 [Reporter Roishu Jin Ga-young] On the 13th, officials from Daeryun Law Firm (Lihan) and Dream United Dental Clinic attended and signed an MOU.

The Busan District Court recently made this ruling to Mr. A, a dental school student who filed a lawsuit against Mr. K. According to the ruling, Mr. K bumped shoulders with Mr. A, a dental student, on a roadside in Busan. At this time, Mr. A reflexively complained, “Miss,” and Mr. K, who was indignant at this, struck Mr. A in the face with his fist several times. When Mr. A fell to the floor due to the punch, Mr. K kicked Mr. A in the face and assaulted him for three weeks. The incident led to a lawsuit, and at the trial, Mr. K claimed that Mr. A was responsible. However, the court decided that the complaint that Mr. A made to Mr. K at the time was not a reason to cause such an assault. The court ruled that Mr. A should pay 140 million won in compensation, taking into account the aftereffects of this, considering that Mr. A is currently in the master's program at the Graduate School of Dentistry and has excellent academic performance, including receiving a scholarship for excellent grades. The court explained, “If there is a problem with appearance due to a disability resulting from an illegal act, the loss of working ability due to abstract disability can be considered only if it affects the future employment, occupation, etc. in relation to the area and degree, gender, age, etc. of the victim.” View full article - Dental student assaulted in anger over ‘shoulder bread’, 140 million won in damages 2026-05-12T05:54:33.370Z https://www.daeryunlaw.com/en/broadcast/502 Gyeonggi-do Comprehensive Welfare Support Center for the Disabled (hereinafter referred to as Nurim Center) held an advisory committee meeting at the center on the 10th to establish a ‘comprehensive plan for building a universal design model’. The Nulim Center, built in 2004 as the Gyeonggi Province Welfare Center for the Disabled, underwent remodeling once in 2016 and received an ‘excellent’ rating in the barrier-free living environment certification in 2017. However, as the aging of the building has revealed limitations in terms of convenience facilities such as parking spaces for disabled vehicles and restrooms, there has been a continued need for comprehensive remodeling in line with the perspective of universal design. This advisory committee was composed of disabled people and universal design experts, including Park Jae-yong, a member of the Health and Welfare Committee of the Gyeonggi Provincial Council, Woo Chang-yoon, president of the Korea Universal Design Association, Choi Bo-yoon, lawyer of the National Integration Committee, tax accountant Cho Bong-hyun, Seongnam City Sheltered Workplace Director Jeong Ki-young, and Able News reporter Park Jong-tae. The advisory committee members who attended the meeting on this day, together with Lee Ki-pyo, director of the Gyeonggi-do Disability Facilities Promotion Center, looked around the installation status of convenience facilities at the Nurim Center and expressed various opinions on the direction of establishing universal design. The main contents derived from the advisory committee include separating vehicle access from the external pedestrian area, renovating restrooms that can be used by severely disabled people, installing rain shields for easy use, replacing flooring at the main entrance, replacing fire escape facilities with non-electrically operated elevators, and installing electric vehicle chargers for the transportation vulnerable. A variety of newly developed opinions were expressed from a universal design perspective, going beyond the existing BF (barrier-free) certification standards, and in particular, Chairman Woo Chang-yoon suggested a plan to remodel the Nulim Center so that it could become a ‘Model House’ of universal design-based convenience facilities for the disabled. Meanwhile, the Nulim Center plans to establish a comprehensive plan for modeling universal design, starting with an advisory committee meeting.

School violence is an act that occurs between minors in school, so it is considered a juvenile crime. Victims who were exposed to constant bullying during school may suffer from trauma throughout their lives. There are many different types of school violence, and especially these days, as the proportion of cases causing mental damage rather than direct physical damage increases, there are many cases where the perpetrators are unable to easily recover from their emotional wounds even after graduating and entering society. In the case of school violence, the case is transferred to the Office of Education Support in accordance with relevant laws, and the School Violence Countermeasures Review Committee (aka ‘School Violence Committee’) handles whether or not to take action. Through deliberation and meetings, the punishment to be imposed on the offending student is decided. The severity of the school violence committee's punishment may vary depending on the case, including written apology, volunteer work, special education and psychological treatment in school, suspension of attendance, class change, school transfer, and expulsion. In addition, with the Ministry of Education's revised system, records of academic abuse charges can be preserved for two years even after graduation, which may act as a constraint on social life. Not only that, but what is even more problematic when there is evidence of school violence is that the victim may be subject to criminal charges and may be subject to criminal or juvenile law, and may even be sentenced to imprisonment. Therefore, if your child has been unfairly involved in a school violence incident, it is advisable to proactively respond from the beginning of the incident. To prevent it from turning into an emotional issue, you should listen to your child in detail about what happened and then prepare a response plan appropriate for the situation. Even if there is evidence of perpetrators of school violence, there is a possibility that they will be subject to excessive punishment because it is inflated to a greater extent than the original, and even if they did not directly participate in the violence, they may be punished for hanging out with the perpetrator. Attorney Lim Seon-jun of Daeryun Law Firm advised, “If you have been wrongfully committed as a perpetrator of school violence or have received excessive punishment, you should seek legal assistance from a lawyer specializing in school violence to properly understand and correct the facts so that a strategic response can be taken.” View full article - ‘Perpetrators of school violence’ are subject to criminal punishment from the School Violence Committee...

Q. First of all, recently OTT Interest in school violence is increasing, both in content and in various news sources.. First of all, I am curious about how much school violence occurs in Busan.. A. The Ministry of Education conducts a survey on school violence every year and announces the results.. This year 4month 10A survey on school violence is scheduled for one month from today.. So last year '20222018 school violence survey' Looking at the results, the damage response rate was 1.7%appeared as. student 100hit 1.7Statistics show that people are victims of school violence., When looking at the types of school violence victims, verbal violence is 40.8%It is the most. Next, physical violence 14.8%It is, Then bullying, And cyberbullying appeared in that order.. The reason why the most school violence occurs in elementary schools is because verbal violence and cyberbullying are on the rise.. Q. At the same time, words that can be easily accessed through the media, etc. 'School violence committee'It is a word called. When an incident occurs, it is not well known how the school violence committee actually handles the case., What kind of work is done through what process?? A. Currently, the school violence committee is convened when a school violence incident is reported.. The school violence committee actually goes through similar procedures as a trial or hearing., When a school violence committee is held, the victim and the perpetrator are called in and the arguments of both parties are heard.. We then review the materials submitted by both parties.. And after the committee members review the claims and materials, they decide whether this incident constitutes school violence., and protective measures for affected students., And decide on disciplinary action against the offending student.. Protective measures for victims are mainly expert counseling, advice, or treatment., Or I mainly focus on things like that., Disciplinary measures against the offender range from a written apology to community service., There is even special training.. However, if the issue is deemed more serious, a class change or attendance suspension is required., and expelled*I'm in the process of transferring to another school.. It can be seen that the results of the investigation by the school violence committee ultimately end up being recorded in the school records.. Q. Above all, I think prevention before going to the school violence committee process is important, and response afterwards is also important., So what is the best way for victims to respond when exposed to the risk of school violence?? A. Victims often do not ask others for help even when exposed to the risk of school violence.. The reason is that he was made fun of, And I feel ashamed about things like that., I also feel guilty because I'm afraid my parents will be upset.. And even if the teacher finds out, the situation gets worse or you could face retaliation., Many people do not ask for help because they are worried and anxious about being ostracized.. The victim must actively report the incident. However, if you are a victim of school violence, your closest family members, In particular, you need to talk to your parents and inform them of the fact that you have been a victim of school violence through an honest conversation.. And I think it's important to report it to the school as well.. Q. If so, when the victim informs his or her parents or teacher of this fact,, I think teacher and parent responses are also important.. If parents knew they were victims,, Or how should you respond when you find out that your children are perpetrators?, What effort is needed?? A. First, parents of victims must have a thorough conversation with their children.. And you need to lead the conversation with warm words from your child., Specifically, it must have been very difficult., You need to comfort and be considerate of your child by saying thank you for talking to him or her even now.. And report school violence to the school., Before reporting, you need to collect enough information to support your child's claims and support them.. In most cases, parents of perpetrators hear about school violence from the school., If it is clear that the perpetrator's child is at fault, I think it is important to first sincerely apologize to the victim and promise to prevent recurrence.. -All right. Q. So, shouldn't we finally create a safe school without school violence?? To this end, if you have any wishes from the education sector, please tell us.. A. The school violence prevention law is now 2004Since it was enacted in the year 20Years have passed. Meanwhile, the Ministry of Education 8Comprehensive measures were announced one after another., Still unable to provide a fundamental solution. First, appropriate punishment must be given to students who commit school violence.. However, recently there is an opinion that zero tolerance or strict punishment is on the rise.. However, I think that strict punishment alone has its limits in eradicating school violence.. The most important thing is to protect the victims.. I believe that the victim's wounds can be healed when we forgive each other and restore relationships.. Above all, school violence is a culture in which all members of society participate, respect and considerate., And I believe that if we create a social community of reconciliation and healing, we can create a safe school.. -I think we need a lot of attention and caution to prevent any more unfortunate damage.. I listened well to what you said today. thank you for coming.

Previously, even when an office-based hospital was detected, it was difficult to recover medical care benefits due to the lack of provisions in the National Health Insurance Act. However, institutional supplementation was made when the National Health Insurance Act Amendment Bill, which clarifies the basis for recovery of nursing care benefits for illegal office-based hospitals and pharmacy pharmacies, was passed by the National Assembly Health and Welfare Committee in February. An illegal office-based hospital refers to a hospital where a person who cannot open a medical institution rents the name of a medical professional to establish a hospital and hires doctors to operate it, or opens and operates a hospital under the name of another doctor even though he or she is not allowed to operate multiple hospitals. Under the Medical Service Act, the establishment and operation of such a hospital is punishable by imprisonment for up to 10 years or a fine of up to 100 million won, and all medical care benefits received by requesting from the National Health Insurance Corporation during the period of illegal operation are recognized as fraud, and punishment and recovery measures are taken. In addition, the longer the operation period, the higher the chance of being sentenced to imprisonment or higher, and there is a high possibility that doctors hired even after knowing that the hospital in question is an office hospital will have their medical license revoked. Even in the case of service, the charge of aiding and abetting is applied and is subject to criminal punishment and suspension of qualifications for up to one year. According to Article 33, Paragraph 2 of the current Medical Service Act, the qualifications to open a medical institution are strictly limited to medical personnel, and non-medical personnel cannot open a medical institution. The reason the Medical Service Act has such regulations is to establish a sound medical order and prevent risks to public health that may arise when medical institutions are opened for profit. Attorney Kim Eun-young of Daeryun Law Firm (Limited) advised, “If it is recognized as an office-based hospital, the level of punishment under the medical law is very high, and the administrative measures that follow, such as recovery of health insurance nursing benefits and cancellation of doctors’ licenses, are also severe.” He added, “If you worked without knowing that it was an office-based hospital, you must deal with it clearly with the help of a medical lawyer.” Read the full article - A look at the National Assembly's passage of the law on the basis of recovery of nursing care benefits when an illegal office manager hospital is detected, and the amendment to the National Health Insurance Act 2026-05-06T14:02:17.114Z https://www.daeryunlaw.com/en/broadcast/482 ‘Burden of proof’ refers to the risk or disadvantage to one party of being treated as if a fact does not exist and being subject to a legal judgment when it is unclear whether a fact that needs to be proven in a lawsuit is true or false. Ordinary people who are not familiar with litigation procedures are bound to face great difficulties and disadvantages due to insufficient evidence collection. Legal professionals also widely recognize that the burden of proof acts as an obstacle to uncovering the truth of a case. In fact, according to the Supreme Court Court Administration's 'Judges' Awareness Survey on the Discovery System Report', 94% of respondents agreed with the statement that 'under the current civil litigation system, the court has difficulty discovering the substantive truth.' The discovery system, which is emerging as an alternative in relation to the burden of proof, which is pointed out as a limitation of the current civil litigation system, is an American legal system that actively searches for evidence possessed by both parties in the litigation law and requires both parties to mutually disclose evidence and documents held by each other before the trial begins. By allowing the other party to submit and confirm the evidence, the issue is clarified without omitting evidence and the facts are properly organized, which shortens the court hearing period and allows the trial process to proceed more efficiently. Although Korea does not implement a discovery system like the United States, there is no change in the fact that it is ultimately important to collect clear evidence first. If clear evidence is collected first, there is an expected effect that the case can be resolved in a short period of time through agreement or mediation between the parties as each party has a clear position on the claims and grounds. Even if the other party denies the evidence and proceeds with the trial, a more reasonable judgment can be made because all the specific evidence is organized and the trial is conducted focusing on objective facts based on it. Attorney Lee Gyeong-min of Daeryun Law Firm (Lihan) advised, “As there are limitations in securing and analyzing evidence for individuals due to the strengthening of the Personal Information Act, it is necessary to seek assistance from a professional lawyer so that evidence can be collected without illegality.” View full article - To reduce damage due to burden of proof, systematic collection of litigation evidence must take precedence. 2026-05-12T18:29:00.200Z https://www.daeryunlaw.com/en/broadcast/477 [Global Epic Reporter Hwang Seong-su] Medical negligence refers to a violation of a doctor's duty of care during work, which violates the rights of patients and causes damage. If a medical accident occurs due to such negligence, the medical professional involved must be held responsible. Medical practitioners who commit medical negligence are subject to criminal liability (causing manslaughter in the line of duty), civil liability (liability for damages resulting from illegal acts and non-fulfillment of obligations), and administrative liability (revocation of medical license under the Medical Service Act, etc.). First of all, when a medical dispute occurs, a criminal lawsuit can be filed to contest the crime of causing bodily harm, professional negligence, or gross negligence causing bodily harm. However, in the case of such charges, it is relatively difficult because it must be medically and objectively proven whether the responsibility for the disputed medical accident was clearly due to the negligence of the medical professional. In the case of license revocation due to violation of the Medical Service Act, which is an administrative responsibility, it is necessary to determine whether the medical professional's serious remarks and treatment process regarding the medical accident occurred were justified and procedurally correct to determine whether the negligence is at a level worthy of license revocation. Therefore, if a patient is a victim of medical negligence, it is important to hold the two responsibilities above and simultaneously file a civil claim for damages to receive compensation for the damage suffered. At this time, the amount of damages may vary depending on the nature of the medical accident, type of medical institution, relationship with the patient, willingness of the parties to reach an agreement, and acceptance of arbitration by the insurance company. When a medical dispute occurs, basically, if the insurance company's adjuster reviews the accident and determines that there was medical negligence, the dispute is resolved by proposing the amount of damages, obtaining the patient's consent, paying the insurance money, and reaching an agreement. However, if the patient refuses to apply for insurance or does not accept the amount of compensation suggested by the insurance company, a civil lawsuit legal procedure is carried out even if the patient has subscribed to liability insurance. In medical lawsuits for damages in civil cases, physical examination and medical record evaluation procedures are conducted under the supervision of the court. Based on the evaluation results, the medical professional's negligence, percentage of negligence, and causal relationship with the damage are carefully judged, and if there is negligence, the corresponding amount of damages is calculated. Attorney Choi Bo-yoon of Daeryun Law Firm (Limited) advised, “There are ways to resolve the dispute through agreement between the parties or through insurance and mediation procedures, but if it leads to a trial, you must seek legal assistance from a medical lawyer with extensive experience in medical malpractice litigation and thoroughly prepare for the lawsuit to avoid losses due to an unfair ruling.” View full article - In the event of a medical accident due to medical negligence or a dispute over the ratio of negligence, you must prepare for a lawsuit for damages. 2026-05-04T00:56:46.142Z https://www.daeryunlaw.com/en/broadcast/473 [Korea Instructor Newspaper Reporter Lee Mi-sook] Diet supplement, anti-aging, joint protection… YouTube is full of recommended products, and Instagram’s realistic experience stories entice you to click ‘buy.’ On TV health information programs, experts such as doctors, pharmacists, and oriental medicine doctors appear and kindly explain the ‘scientific evidence.’ , together with the Consumer Group, a consumer group, monitored 400 online advertisements for health functional foods and health foods (functional advertisements) sold on five platforms, including Naver, Kakao, Instagram, YouTube, and Coupang.

Company A’s ‘green lipped mussel’ product, which gained popularity as it was known to have joint-protecting properties, advertised pharmaceutical-level therapeutic effects such as treating arthritis, preventing asthma and cardiovascular disease, and alleviating inflammation. Company B's 'Cissus' product, which SNS influencers mobilized, is proudly saying that it not only reduces body fat, but also has benefits such as diabetes prevention, bone health, and pain and inflammation relief when consumed. In advertisements, papers are presented to ‘scientifically’ prove the effectiveness. To what extent can we trust the contents of this paper, which claims to be ‘the latest research results’? The reporters verified several papers used in the advertisement. It was confirmed that only advantageous parts were extracted, that the source was not properly disclosed, and that papers from 25 years ago were claimed to be the latest research results. Additionally, various experiments that can be seen with our own eyes also appear. Chunks of bread or oil may melt, and the oil may separate and float on top of the chicken.

Under the Labor Standards Act, a worker refers to a person who provides work to an employer for wages in a business or workplace, in terms of its substance rather than the form of a contract. Generally, when thinking about industrial accidents, it is easy to think of personnel accidents that occur at construction sites or manufacturing plants, but industrial accidents can also occur due to exposure to diseases, even if they are not necessarily due to direct physical factors. Even after retirement, if a worker proves that the disease was caused by the work he or she performed, he or she can be approved as an industrial accident. In Article 37 of the Industrial Accident Compensation Insurance Act, any injury, disease, or death that has a causal relationship with work is considered an occupational accident. The law stipulates occupational accidents, occupational diseases, and commuting accidents as specific types of occupational accidents. Occupational accidents are accidents that occur while workers are performing their work, and include not only accidents that occur while working, but also accidents that occur during company-sponsored events. Occupational diseases refer to diseases caused by handling or exposure to factors that can have a negative impact on the physical health of workers, such as physical factors, chemicals, dust, pathogens, and tasks that place a burden on the body, during the course of work. Attorney Jeong Jun of Daeryun Law Firm (Limited) advised, “For workers who have suffered an industrial accident, they cannot work and have no immediate source of income, so it is important to resolve their livelihood issues through sufficient compensation for the industrial accident. Since it is not easy to prove the facts of an accident or work-related disease, it is necessary to collect evidence and review it carefully with a labor lawyer.” View full article - Occupational accidents of industrial workers must be carefully examined, their types, and whether they are recognized. 2026-05-13T11:59:50.568Z https://www.daeryunlaw.com/en/broadcast/468 [Beyond Post Reporter Shin Kim] Workers face great difficulties in maintaining their livelihood when their employer unilaterally terminates their employment relationship regardless of their will. Therefore, the Labor Standards Act prohibits employers from dismissing workers without justifiable reason, and operates several systems to ensure that workers who have been unfairly dismissed can receive relief. First of all, in order to proceed with a legal dispute on the grounds of unfair dismissal, it is necessary to first determine whether the employee's status is recognized under the law. At this time, under the Labor Standards Act, whether an employee is an employee must be judged based on the substance of the work, not the formal content. The standard may be whether the worker is subordinate to the company and has worked under the company's direction and supervision for a certain period of time. Therefore, even if you are a temporary worker rather than a regular worker, your status as an employee can be recognized if you have renewed your initial employment contract and have continued to work for more than two years. In addition, a person is not excluded from worker status under the Labor Standards Act simply because he or she has been paid an amount after deducting business income tax rather than earned income tax or is not enrolled in the four major insurance policies. If the company takes a dismissal action without considering these factors, it is clearly an unfair dismissal, so it must apply to the local labor committee for relief or even consider legal action such as a lawsuit to cancel unfair dismissal. For relief from the local labor committee, an application must be submitted to the local labor committee located in the location of the workplace where the worker worked. If you wish to file a lawsuit against the decision of the Local Labor Relations Commission, you may apply for an additional review of unfair dismissal at the National Labor Relations Commission. If you are still dissatisfied with the retrial, you must file a lawsuit to cancel unfair dismissal and contest the legitimacy of the dismissal. Attorney Ahn Seung-jin of Daeryun Law Firm said, "If unfair dismissal is recognized, the worker can be reinstated and receive wages not received during the period of dismissal. Therefore, the conflict between workers and companies surrounding unfair dismissal is an issue that places a burden on both parties, so we must consult with a labor lawyer with extensive experience in related cases, sufficiently refer to precedents and legal principles, and then respond logically."

As a result, legal disputes between employers and workers over issues such as unpaid wages and severance pay are increasing. Wages are a means of protecting the minimum right to survival necessary to live in modern society, including monthly utility bills, savings, and living expenses. Therefore, the issue of wage receipt and increase negotiation is bound to be the most sensitive issue for workers. Nevertheless, in reality, payment of wages may be delayed or only a portion of wages may be paid due to worsening company management. In addition, there are many cases where severance pay is not paid on time or wages are paid below the minimum wage. When non-payment of wages does not follow the principles of wage payment according to the Labor Standards Act, workers can first submit a petition for non-payment of wages to the labor office with jurisdiction over the place of business and request a labor supervisor's decision. If overdue wages are confirmed through an investigation of the parties and the facts, the labor inspector can urge the employer to pay the overdue wages, and at this time, the issue of overdue wages can be adjusted through agreement. However, if the employer continues to fail to pay wages despite the labor inspector's request for payment, the employer may be sued for violating the law. At this time, the labor inspector issues a certificate of unpaid wages and helps the worker file a civil lawsuit. If an employer fails to pay wages, criminal punishment will be imposed. The punishment for non-payment of wages is imprisonment for up to 3 years or a fine not exceeding 30 million won, and if the minimum wage law is violated, the punishment is imprisonment for not more than 3 years or a fine not exceeding 20 million won. In addition, if a person is found guilty more than twice for non-payment of wages, etc., or if the total amount of unpaid wages is more than 30 million won, the list will be disclosed as a workplace with non-payment of wages, which will result in a significant disadvantage in maintaining the business and managing the business owner's credit. Kim Gwang-deok, a lawyer at Daeryun Law Firm (Liuhan), advised, "Wage arrears are not a problem that can be resolved by both employers and workers just holding on. If a legal dispute arises, you should seek advice from a labor lawyer and prepare a response to resolve the matter amicably."

Cyber ​​school bullying occurs online and in cyberspace. Cyber ​​school bullying occurs when a victim of bullying within school is subjected to cyber bullying through social media such as Instagram even after leaving school. This kind of cyberbullying includes saying specific words that defame the other person, spreading such content on the Internet, etc., continuously saying insulting terms that disparage the other person in front of many people, or spreading such content on the Internet, etc. As the penetration rate of smart devices increases and non-face-to-face communication increases, the frequency and severity of cyber school bullying incidents are increasing. The victims' suffering is so severe that it goes beyond imagination, and cases of them suffering from depression are not uncommon. Because it takes place in cyberspace, you can suffer group violence by an unspecified number of people regardless of time or place. In addition to simple psychological damage, you can also suffer financial damage such as asking for gifticons or extorting the victim's data. In addition, unlike typical face-to-face school violence, it is carried out quite intelligently and cleverly so that it is difficult for parents or acquaintances to notice. If the one-sided harassment by the perpetrators continues, it is necessary to take legal action without delaying too long. Therefore, if you are a victim of cyber school bullying, it is important to secure evidence to prove the fact of the damage, so it is a good idea to leave concrete data such as recording the damage, leaving a conversation history, and writing about the damage in a diary. Attorney Jeong Sang-eui of Daeryun Law Firm (Lihan) advised, “Parents should carefully examine their children if they suspect that they have been victims of school violence, as the damage caused by cyber school violence is not easily apparent on the outside, so children often suffer for a long time and the wounds become deeper.” He added, “The recognition of school violence and the level of action taken can vary depending on how you respond to school violence, so it is essential to respond systematically through consultation with a lawyer specializing in school violence with extensive experience in school violence cases.” View full article - If you are a victim of cyber school violence, it is important to secure evidence to prove the damage. 2026-05-10T15:30:48.458Z https://www.daeryunlaw.com/en/broadcast/454 Daeryun Law Firm (Yuhan) announced on the 6th that it had hired senior attorney Seong-wook Seong, a former prosecutor at the Incheon District Prosecutors' Office. He graduated from law school at the top of his class. After being appointed as a prosecutor, he served as a prosecutor at Jeonju Prosecutor's Office, Suwon Ansan Branch, and Incheon District Prosecutors' Office, and was in charge of various criminal cases, including violent crimes, traffic accidents, school violence, and juvenile crimes. Representative attorney Shim Jae-guk said, “In the current situation where the flow of case processing procedures, including the adjustment of investigative authority, is rapidly changing, we are expecting that Attorney Seong-wook Seong, who joined Daeryun right after his retirement on the 24th of last month, will respond more quickly and flexibly to changes in investigation methods.” He added, “With the addition of Attorney Seong, we expect that the capabilities of the criminal team in charge of juvenile crimes, drugs, and sex crimes, which are continuously increasing, will be further strengthened.” An official from Daeryun Law Firm (Lihan) said, "Criminal cases require a careful response from the initial investigation stage. According to the judiciary's analysis of military honors, the rate of probation for former lawyers is twice that of general lawyers," and added, "We are continuously recruiting lawyers from courts and prosecutors to provide clients with professional assistance from the investigation stage to the court stage."

Insurance fraud is the act of deliberately causing an accident or manipulating information to deceive an insurance company and obtain insurance money. It occurs in various forms, such as disguising it as a traffic accident and receiving a large amount of insurance money, or pretending that an insured accident occurred even though it did not occur. In order to receive as much insurance money as possible, the extent of damage is exaggerated by inflating car repair estimates, colluding with doctors to increase the degree of injury or disability level, and intentionally staying in the hospital for a long period of time. Insurance fraud is subject to criminal punishment, and if you deceive an insurance company and claim insurance money, you are also guilty of insurance fraud. Insurance fraud is punishable by imprisonment for up to 10 years or a fine of up to 50 million won in accordance with the ‘Special Act on Prevention of Insurance Fraud’. If the amount of profit from insurance fraud is more than 500 million won or if you are judged to be a habitual offender, you will be subject to severe punishment and may be subject to disadvantages such as restrictions on employment. Additionally, even if the fraud is discovered and the attempt is made without receiving the insurance money, punishment cannot be avoided. Due to the rapid increase in insurance fraud crimes, there are frequent cases where innocent accident victims or policyholders are accused of insurance fraud because the insurance money is large or the number of insurance claims is high. Attorney Park Shin-young of Daeryun Law Firm (Lihan) said, “During the investigation process to detect insurance fraud, there are many cases where medical professionals or patients who did not commit any illegal acts are charged or punished simply based on suspicious circumstances.” He added, “As the issue of insurance fraud has emerged, including the arrest of a group of insurance fraudsters worth hundreds of millions of dollars, the level of punishment has increased and insurance companies are forming teams to respond, so if you are unfairly suspected of insurance fraud, you must seek the help of an insurance lawyer and a traffic accident lawyer from the beginning of the case and respond proactively to avoid unfair punishment.” View full article - If you are unfairly suspected of traffic accident insurance fraud, you must respond immediately 2026-05-11T12:12:41.057Z https://www.daeryunlaw.com/en/broadcast/449 Recently, industrial accidents at companies have occurred frequently in Korea, and related legal disputes have arisen. Safety accidents that occur at industrial sites are legally handled by the Product Liability Act and the Serious Accident Punishment Act. If a consumer consumes a product made by a company and casualties occur, the Serious Accident Punishment Act can be applied. For example, if consumers who consume dumplings produced by a company suffer from mass food poisoning, a product defect is recognized even if the product has received the government's Food Safety Management Certification Standard (HACCP). The Serious Accident Punishment Act defines disasters caused by defects in raw materials, manufactured products, public facilities, and public transportation as serious civil disasters, and punishes those responsible for management when casualties occur. Products referred to in this law include automobiles, food, and pharmaceuticals. In relation to this, the company will defend itself by citing reasons for exemption as provided for in the Product Liability Act. The Product Liability Act, which was enacted to protect victims from damages caused by product defects, stipulates in Article 4, Paragraph 3 that manufacturers are exempt from liability if they prove that a product defect occurred by complying with the standards set by the laws at the time the manufacturer supplied the product. However, there are cases where the Serious Accident Punishment Act is applied even if it falls under exemption under the Product Liability Act. For example, if a consumer dies due to an accident involving a defective automobile part, the consumer may be exempted from liability under the Product Liability Act, but in some cases, the Serious Accident Punishment Act may apply. In this way, legal disputes and authoritative interpretations related to the Product Liability Act and the Serious Accident Punishment Act are emerging as major social problems. The Serious Accident Punishment Act is a means of disaster prevention and was created to eliminate insensitivity to safety in industrial sites and move toward becoming an industrial safety powerhouse, and has a strong character as a special law for the punishment provisions of the Criminal Act and the Occupational Safety and Health Act. Attorney Jeong Jae-bong of Daeryun Law Firm (Limited) advised, “In order to be excluded from the provisions of the Serious Accident Punishment Act, a company’s response strategy must prove that it was unable to prevent an accident despite fulfilling its obligations to ensure safety and health, or that it was unable to control risk factors beyond the scope of the business owner’s control.” He added, “As it is in the early stages of enforcement of the law, it is advisable to receive legal advice from a corporate legal lawyer with a high understanding of related cases.” View full article - What is the strategy for responding to the increasing legal disputes related to the Product Liability Act and the Serious Accident Punishment Act... and corporate lawsuits? 2026-05-12T08:11:36.578Z https://www.daeryunlaw.com/en/broadcast/448 [Beyond Post Reporter Kim Shin] Traffic accidents can happen to anyone, but when a traffic accident occurs and you suffer damage, there are many issues that need to be considered in the midst of the chaos. Among them, there are frequent cases of disputes over the percentage of fault between the perpetrator and the victim. It is important to note that there are cases where insurance companies excessively reduce their fault ratio to reduce the settlement amount, and it is necessary to consider all factors rather than hastily deciding on the settlement amount. At this time, if there is a difference of opinion on the percentage of fault and no agreement can be reached, a lawsuit must be filed to claim reasonable compensation. The key to compensating for traffic accident damages is to accurately determine medical expenses, including future medical expenses, and decide whether or not to file a lawsuit. In civil cases, damages are divided into active damages, passive damages, and alimony. Active damages include hospital treatment, hospitalization, nursing, funeral expenses, etc., while passive damages include future income that could have been earned if the accident had not occurred. In addition to salary income and business income, compensation varies depending on whether it is difficult to prove income, unemployed people, housewives, etc., so a strategy must be established to ensure that appropriate compensation is received within the established standards. Compensation for damages must be filed within the statute of limitations to claim and prove damages for each item. Once the judgment is confirmed, it can no longer be reversed, so it must be proceeded with caution. Attorney Hyun Byeong-hee of Daeryun Law Firm (Limited) advised, “When claiming compensation for traffic accident damages, it is necessary to clearly prove the facts about how the incident occurred, the percentage of fault, and the cause of the accident, so there are limits to the ability of the general public to make various legal judgments necessary from settlement to litigation.” He added, “It is better to respond with the help of a traffic accident lawyer who has handled a variety of traffic accident cases.” View full article - If you are experiencing a dispute over traffic accident damages or negligence ratio, consider filing a lawsuit 2026-05-03T05:59:16.220Z https://www.daeryunlaw.com/en/broadcast/447 [The Indigo = Editor-in-Chief Lee Yong-seok] In the future, the role of disability rights advocacy organizations, support centers for people with developmental disabilities, and organizations for the disabled to protect the rights and interests of people with disabilities who have been victims of abuse or crime is expected to increase. On the 9th, major media outlets, including the Kyunghyang Shinmun, reported on the use of the 'designated accuser system' for the first time in history to punish the intellectually disabled woman A's brother-in-law B for obvious crimes, including stealing the husband's death insurance money. The incident is a typical crime of stealing property between relatives targeting people with developmental disabilities such as intellectual disabilities. When his brother died, Mr. B received the death insurance money of 235 million won on behalf of his sister-in-law, Mr. A, and changed Mr. A's house into his own name. The Jeonbuk Disability Rights Advocacy Agency, which was aware of this crime, requested an investigation from the police in January of last year. When the investigation began, Mr. B submitted a non-punishment application to the police, requesting that the investigation be stopped immediately as it was an internal family matter. They advocated the so-called relative mourning ceremony, which exempts them from punishment for crimes committed between relatives as stipulated in Article 328 of the Criminal Act. In order to punish crimes between relatives, there had to be a complaint from Mr. A as it was a ‘crime of pro-crime’ in which the victim had to file a complaint directly, but since Mr. A personally signed a non-punishment application form, the case seemed to be concluded with ‘no right to prosecute’. However, on the 24th of last month, Mr. B was indicted on charges of embezzlement, false entry in electronic records, and conspiracy. Prosecutor Jin Dong-hwa of Jeonju Prosecutor's Office, Jeongeup Branch, the prosecutor in charge, played a significant role until these results were obtained. First, Prosecutor Jin began a re-investigation to clearly confirm Mr. A’s ‘intent to punish’, who was unable to even recognize his own damage due to his intellectual disability even though the damage was clear, and finally obtained an answer from Mr. A that said, “I hope Mr. B, his brother-in-law, gets scolded.” After confirming the victim's intention to punish, Prosecutor Jin immediately set out to find the 'interested persons' defined in the 'designated accuser system'. Mr. C, the son of Mr. A, was considered, but since he had already withdrawn his intention to punish his uncle, there was a high probability that he would have received financial support from his uncle, Mr. B, and local facilities for the disabled were also excluded because they had a relationship with Mr. B. In the end, Prosecutor Jin applied for designation as a complainant, naming the Jeonbuk Disabled Persons Rights Advocacy Agency, which had initially requested this case, as a “interested party,” and when the application for designation was approved, he had the Jeonbuk Disability Rights Advocacy Agency appoint a public defender. In addition, a public defender was designated as the complainant, a formal complaint was submitted, and Mr. B was able to be sent to trial. Regarding this case, lawyer Choi Bo-yoon of Daeryun Law Firm said, “In general crimes, a complaint is simply a clue to the investigation, but in pro-reporting crimes, a complaint is required for the case to progress.” He added, “The ‘designated accuser system’ is a case in which a accuser is designated only upon the application of an ‘interested person’ in cases where ‘there is no one to file a complaint’ for pro-reporting crimes, and ‘in cases where there is no person with the right to file a complaint (relatives, etc.) as specified in the law, or for example, a legal representative such as the victim’s parents is the perpetrator. “It is possible to use it in some cases.” “However, there may be concerns about the scope of ‘interested persons,’ but it appears that it will be interpreted broadly, and in particular, in this case, as it has become a precedent for the disability rights advocacy organization, which is the reporting organization, to be an interested party, it seems that those who are required to report under Article 15 of the Developmental Disabilities Act or the Developmental Disabilities Support Center will also need to actively take action by establishing a response system for pro-reporting crimes.” Although the Welfare of Persons with Disabilities Act has been revised and implemented in 2021 to stipulate that the Relative Funeral Ceremony will not be applied to crimes of abuse of persons with disabilities, the opinion is that active use of the ‘designated accuser system’ is necessary as crimes that occurred before the revision of the law are still subject to the crime of pro-reporting. In addition, through this case, organizations for the disabled, such as disability rights advocacy organizations, can apply for designation as plaintiffs as 'interested parties', so if related organizations or institutions take an active role, it is expected that a significant amount of damage relief will be provided to disabled people who have suffered from property extortion by relatives and whose legal rights were restricted due to being blocked by the Relative Funeral Service.

This means living without registering a legal marriage in order to avoid being overly tied to each other, and these couples are defined as common-law couples. Common-law couples do not receive legal protection based on legal marriage, such as inheritance rights, because they have not registered their marriage as stipulated by law. However, if they prove that they were in a common-law marriage relationship and not simply cohabitation, they can file a lawsuit during the separation process. Common-law couples can dissolve their relationship by agreement of the parties or by one party's expression of intent without the legal procedure of divorce. However, if the relationship is terminated due to obvious reasons such as infidelity, the other party can be held responsible for the dissolution of the marriage. Therefore, even in a common-law marriage, if the marriage is dissolved due to the other party's infidelity, a lawsuit for alimony can be filed against the other party. Additionally, in the process of dissolving a common-law marriage, you can request property division from the other party, just like a legal marriage. If a couple dissolving a common-law marriage has children, custody and parental rights can be determined through agreement between the parties or may be designated by the court, and the custodian can also request child support. However, in all of these matters, you must be able to prove that you and the other person were in a ‘common-law relationship’ rather than simply living together. In order for a common-law divorce to be recognized, the reality of the marriage must exist to the extent that the common life of the couple can be recognized according to social norms. For example, documents proving that two people have been living together at the same address for a long period of time and documents proving that they have formed an economic community are required. Attorney Jeong Sang-ui of Daeryun Law Firm advised, “As common-law marriages require objective proof of common-law marriage even if there is a clear cause of fault, such as a spouse’s infidelity, it is necessary to get legal help from a divorce lawyer and systematically collect evidence to prepare for litigation.” View full article - Increasing number of couples do not register their marriage... Can claim alimony and property division in case of common-law divorceIs it possible to divorce without registering the marriage?Divorce is impossible without registering the marriage. Divorce is the process of dissolving a legal marriage, but in the case of a common-law marriage, there is no legal relationship to dissolve because it is not a marital relationship under the law. If you are not legally married, there is no need to go through divorce proceedings. You can end your relationship naturally through separation, etc., without going through procedures such as divorce.Is it possible to claim property division in a common-law marriage?Even in the case of a common-law divorce that dissolves the relationship without registering the marriage, a claim for property division is possible. If one party is responsible for leading to an irreparable relationship, the other party may claim alimony. However, you must be able to prove a ‘de facto marriage relationship’ equivalent to a legal marriage relationship, not a simple cohabitation relationship. If you have had a wedding, you can use wedding invitations or wedding photos as evidence to prove your marital relationship. Even if you have not had a wedding, you can support your marital relationship through interactions between the two families and testimony that acquaintances recognized them as a couple.Are you considering filing a common-law divorce lawsuit?Unlike a legal marriage, a common-law marriage must first prove the marital relationship. Since faster preparation is needed, we recommend that you receive legal assistance, such as consultation with a divorce lawyer, to protect your legal rights. 2026-05-14T07:09:24.009Z https://www.daeryunlaw.com/en/broadcast/430 [The Power = Reporter Yoo Yeon-soo] Amid the recent economic downturn, many people are suffering great losses by being involved in financial crimes such as investment fraud and embezzlement. Fraud is a crime under criminal law that involves deceiving someone to receive property or obtain financial gain. The crime of embezzlement refers to the act of a person who keeps another person's property using the property for personal use or refusing to return it. Investment fraud is mainly a method of promising to multiply the investment amount by using stocks or coins as bait, or guaranteeing high returns by doubling the investment amount because there is a promising new business item. The most important factor in establishing a ‘crime of fraud’ is proving ‘an act of deception’, that is, intentional deception. Therefore, the core basis for admitting the fraud charge is not simply that investors did not receive their investment money back, but that there was no possibility of profit due to the business structure in the first place, and that the investment money was intentionally attracted and then used arbitrarily. Typical acts of deception include cases where an agreement is made to distribute a certain amount of profits as profits instead of using the investment funds for a specific purpose, cases where it is impossible to generate profits due to the business structure, falsification of documents to make it appear that the investment funds and profits have been performed, and cases where the investment funds are used for purposes other than investment. These are easy to prove as embezzlement by simply checking the flow of the investment funds. Basically, fraud is punishable by up to 10 years in prison or a fine of up to 20 million won under the criminal law, but the larger the amount of profit obtained, the more severe the punishment. In accordance with the Act on the Aggravated Punishment of Specific Economic Crimes, if the amount of gain through fraud is 500 million won or more but less than 5 billion won, the person is punished by imprisonment for a fixed term of 3 years or more, and if the amount of gain through fraud is more than 5 billion won, the person is punished by imprisonment of 5 years or more or life imprisonment. Attorney Lee Il-kwon of Daeryun Law Firm (Limited) said, “For investment-related fraud, it is necessary to objectively reveal with evidence what part is deception, what the resulting damage is, and what is the causal relationship between deception and damage, etc.” He added, “From the process of attracting investors and investment money to the actual investment, it is necessary to carefully understand whether the requirements for fraud are met and then devise a specific strategy, so a criminal and financial lawyer with extensive experience in fraud cases is required. “We must receive assistance to prove fraud damage and minimize damage to investment funds,” he advised.

The special nature of the military can sometimes be controversial as it violates individual rights. Military sex crimes are organized around a closed and coercive hierarchical culture, and there is a high possibility of secondary victimization from superiors and other organizations when reporting damage. Therefore, there were many cases where victims of sexual crimes were covered up for fear of secondary victimization and additional damage. In order to improve these limitations, the military is also revising related laws and treating sexual crimes between soldiers seriously under the Military Criminal Act. While the general criminal law imposes a fixed-term prison sentence of three years or more on those who rape, those who rape soldiers, etc. under the Military Criminal Act are subject to a fixed-term prison sentence of more than five years. In this way, unlike civilian cases, military criminal cases of sexual crimes carry a higher level of statutory punishment, and the investigation and investigative process proceeds in a similar manner to general criminal cases. However, the intensity or direction of the investigation may also vary depending on various factors such as facts, rank, and whether it occurred within the military. If you are involved in a military criminal case, depending on the results of the criminal action, it may lead to administrative action or civil litigation. In general, the perpetrator is often from the upper class and the victim is from the lower class, which clearly shows the characteristics of sexual crimes in the military where criminal damage is inflicted on subordinates using their status as superiors. Unlike civilian sex crimes, when a soldier is referred to a military court and punished under military criminal law, he or she is subject to military disciplinary action in addition to imprisonment. There are a variety of dispositions ranging from military reprimands and pay cuts to rank demotion and suspension, and dismissal and dismissal that result in deprivation of military status. Attorney Kim Geun-soo of Daeryun Law Firm advised, “If you are wrongfully accused of a military sex crime, it is important to secure early evidence and set the direction of your statement, so you should work with a professional lawyer to secure as much evidence as possible as early as possible and prepare how to make a statement about the case.” View full article - If you have been wrongfully implicated in a military sexual crime, early response is important. 2026-05-10T06:28:02.088Z https://www.daeryunlaw.com/en/broadcast/423 [Global Epic Reporter Hwang Seong-su] Drunk driving is the act of driving a vehicle or other means of transportation under the Road Traffic Act while intoxicated, which can threaten not only the driver's life but also the lives of others. In particular, if you injure or cause death to another person, you will be subject to strong punishment under the Road Traffic Act. In addition to having your license revoked, you may be subject to additional charges of causing death by dangerous driving under the Special Price Act and may be subject to aggravated punishment. As such, drunk driving is clearly an illegal act under the Road Traffic Act, and if it causes casualties, it must be punishable. The Road Traffic Act stipulates that if the blood alcohol concentration exceeds 0.03%, a person is subject to criminal punishment, and the level of punishment for drunk driving crimes is becoming increasingly strict. However, there are exceptions to license revocation, which is an administrative measure separate from criminal measures. This is a case where the act of driving itself is an important means of making a living. Anyone working in the transportation industry, such as a bus driver, taxi driver, or truck driver, can apply for relief from the administrative disposition of license revocation. In this case, the procedures and requirements of the legal system, such as objections and administrative trials, must be carefully reviewed. Among these, objections must be filed with the local police agency having jurisdiction over the driver's license within 60 days from the date of cancellation of the driver's license. You must meet certain conditions to apply: your blood alcohol content must be less than 0.1%, and you must not have had a drunk driving traffic accident, failed a breathalyzer test, or run away within 5 years. Attorney Choi Jeong-woon of Daeryun Law Firm (Liuhan) advised, “As the requirements for reissuing a license have become more stringent if you have a history of drunk driving, it is essential for those whose transportation business is a means of making a living to prepare with an administrative lawyer for relief measures such as revocation of a drunk driving license suspension.” View full article - Even drivers who make a living are inevitably subject to drunk driving and license suspension/revocation 2026-05-13T14:24:03.051Z https://www.daeryunlaw.com/en/broadcast/421 [Beyond Post Reporter Kim Hyeong-un] Public officials who work for the country and the people may be subject to disciplinary action if they violate laws such as the National Civil Service Act, violate their official duties, neglect their duties, or damage their face or prestige regardless of their relationship to their duties. Public officials who handle the affairs of the state or local governments are a type of public figure who has various obligations as servants to the people. If an individual commits a private or public act that damages the prestige of the entire civil service organization, he or she will be subject to disciplinary action taking into account the type and level of the misconduct. When a public official or teacher commits a mistake, he or she undergoes an internal inspection and audit, is referred to the disciplinary committee, and disciplinary action is taken accordingly. At this time, if the disciplinary action is deemed unfair or excessive, he or she can apply for an appeal review to cancel or change the disciplinary action and restore his or her legitimate rights and interests. At this time, the appeal review is an administrative trial system that applies judicial procedures mutatis mutandis and is conducted in accordance with trial procedures such as the structure of the parties' trial and evidence investigation, so in order to obtain the desired result, the applicant must prove that the disciplinary action is unfair. In addition, a prompt response is also important, and in order for the claim to be reviewed, it must be submitted within 30 days from the date of receiving the explanation of reasons for disposition. In order to obtain a reduction or cancellation of the disciplinary action, the application for appeal review must be carefully prepared and submitted based on the legal basis as to why the disciplinary action is illegal or unfair. In the case of appeal review for confirmation of invalidity, there is no limitation on the appeal period, but there is no change in the fact that a quick response is necessary as it is rare for a defect to be recognized only when it is clearly serious and the conditions for invalidity are established. In particular, the citation rate for claimants at the Appeals Review Committee is relatively low, so when proceeding with an appeal against a disciplinary action, it is necessary to thoroughly prepare from the time the disciplinary action is taken to find sufficient grounds for cancellation or reduction of disciplinary action and request an appeal review. Attorney Kim Geun-soo of Daeryun Law Firm (Liuhan) advised, “In order to avoid being dismissed for not being able to sufficiently prove the unfairness of the disciplinary action when conducting a civil service appeal review due to an unfair disciplinary action, you should seek the help of an administrative lawyer as professional legal assistance, such as collecting evidence and arguing effective legal principles, is essential.” He added, "There is no need to give up just because the Appeal Review Committee did not provide relief because the review standards of the Appeals Review Committee and the court's standards are different. Even if the appeal was dismissed, one way is to obtain a favorable ruling from the court through an administrative lawsuit."

Cyber ​​school violence, as stipulated in the ‘School Violence Prevention and Countermeasures Act’, refers to acts in which students use information and communication devices such as the Internet and mobile phones to continuously and repeatedly psychologically attack specific students or spread personal information or false information related to specific students. With the development of information and communication media, not only simple assaults or face-to-face assaults in the past, but also acts such as verbal violence and sending insulting photos through SNS such as KakaoTalk, Facebook, and Instagram have been comprehensively defined as types of school violence. Cyber ​​school violence, which mainly occurs on SNS or KakaoTalk chat rooms, does not cause physical harm, but it causes severe mental pain, so it can cause continuous stress to the victim and cause greater mental shock and trauma than simple physical assault. Incidents of school violence are recorded in students' life records or even subject to police investigation. In particular, cyber school violence may result in criminal or juvenile protection measures depending on the specific case, such as insult, defamation under the ‘Act on Promotion of Information and Communications Network Utilization and Information Protection, etc.’, and obscenity using communication media under the ‘Special Act on the Punishment of Sexual Violence Crimes, etc.’. In addition, cyber school bullying may result in a high level of action being taken by the School Violence Committee because even if the bullying is not done directly, if the student is in a group chat room and watches over or sympathizes with the incident, it is considered to be bullying the victim. Therefore, if you are in a group chat room, you should avoid joining in when your friend's words and actions are inappropriate to avoid being singled out as an aggressor. Attorney Hyun Byeong-hee of Daeryun Law Firm advised, “If you are a victim of cyber school violence, you should seek legal assistance from a school violence lawyer from the beginning of the case, and take action to resolve the case by considering everything from the school violence committee to lawsuits.” View full article - If you are a victim of cyber school violence, you should consider everything from the School Violence Committee to a lawsuit. 2026-05-12T11:23:51.091Z https://www.daeryunlaw.com/en/broadcast/412 As the real estate market has recently become tight, problems with non-payment of construction fees are occurring frequently in the domestic construction industry. Disputes arise in various situations, such as when payment is not made properly at the agreed upon time or when additional amounts are incurred as the work period is longer than originally expected. If the construction price is not paid properly, the supply of materials is delayed, the work schedule is naturally delayed, the dispute cannot be resolved, and the building remains unfinished, making the economic situation even more difficult. In these cases, the problem must be resolved legally through a construction payment claim lawsuit. A construction payment claim lawsuit literally refers to a legal procedure to demand payment when the other party does not pay the promised amount even though the construction is carried out as contracted and completed. For this lawsuit, you must prepare documents that can prove your debt relationship with the other party for the construction cost, including the contract, and the statute of limitations is relatively short at 3 years, so you must respond quickly to recover your legitimate rights. In addition, if the construction payment has not been received, it is possible to exercise the lien to occupy the construction site until the claim is repaid. However, there must be no special clause excluding the lien at the time of contract and conditions for establishment, such as maintaining possession of the site, must be met. Evidence is important because construction payment claim lawsuits arise when the parties' positions or claims differ regarding the rights or obligations under the contract, and the key is to prove clear violations of the subcontracting law, such as a construction contract written with an inflated amount. If construction was carried out according to a fair and legal contract, it is natural to receive proper payment for the construction. If you are considering legal action in relation to construction costs, you will need proof materials, lien rights, and preservation measures to prepare for compulsory execution.

It is easy to take this lightly as something that happens between school children, but it is a serious incident of violence and must be held accountable. If the perpetrator of such a school violence incident is serious or does not show an active attitude toward reaching an agreement with the victim or recovering from the damage, he or she may be subject to various measures, such as forced expulsion or forced transfer, through the procedures of the School Violence Response Review Committee (School Violence Committee). In the School Violence Deliberation Committee, deliberation members impose a certain level of punishment on the offending student for the wrongful actions committed by the offending student toward the victim. At this time, the disposition received from the School Violence Review Committee cannot be deleted from the student records for two years, which greatly hinders the student from advancing to higher school, and follows him around like a tag even after graduation. However, if you are unfairly implicated as an aggressor, you must prepare for and respond to the School Violence Review Committee to avoid being unfairly punished by the School Violence Review Committee. The bigger problem is that if the case is serious or the victim suffers a great deal, it is highly likely that it will not only result in a school violence committee action, but also lead to civil or criminal lawsuits for school violence victims. In addition, in the case of school violence, the parties involved are minors, and it is difficult to determine the true nature of the incident through the statements of the students involved and those who witnessed it, so there are many cases in which they are unfairly framed as perpetrators or receive more severe punishment than the actual act. In the case of school violence, a clear line must be drawn regarding one's responsibility for the wrongfully accused perpetrator, but this is a problem that is difficult to resolve on an individual basis due to legal and procedural difficulties. Excessive or unfair dispositions must be supported by an accurate understanding of the facts and an objective legal analysis of the incident, so you must respond strategically through a professional lawyer.

[Lawyer Eunhye Kang’s column] 2026-03-30T03:18:23.308Z https://www.daeryunlaw.com/en/broadcast/409 [Global Epic Reporter Hwang Seong-su] Recently, voice phishing cases have been on the rise again. Rather than targeting older parents or seniors in the past, the method is to lure young people who are experiencing financial difficulties under the pretext of high profits and make them participate in crimes through voice phishing delivery methods. There are many cases where, without knowing that the entity giving them the work was a criminal organization, they did as they were told, thinking they could receive a large amount of compensation for simple tasks such as delivering company transaction payments or collecting loans, but were punished through voice phishing delivery and collection methods. Even if you were not aware of the crime or had no intention, if you are involved in a voice phishing crime and you fail to properly defend yourself against the investigative agency, you may be subject to criminal punishment for aiding and abetting fraud, regardless of your intention or intention. In fact, voice phishing crimes can be considered aiding and abetting fraud simply by sympathizing with or assisting in the crime. It varies depending on the degree of participation in the crime, but if a person is found guilty of fraud, he or she may be punished by imprisonment for up to 10 years or by a fine of up to 20 million won. If the charge of aiding or abetting fraud is applied, he or she can be punished by imprisonment of up to 5 years or by a fine of up to 10 million won. Voice phishing like this is a vicious crime that can have a negative impact on the people's economy and create an unspecified number of victims by deliberately trying to steal other people's property, so the punishment for the perpetrator is becoming increasingly severe. If you are a victim of voice phishing, you must first quickly file a report through the National Police Agency's 112 call center or a financial company call center and request a suspension of payment for the fraudulent account. Additionally, if you are wrongfully involved in an act without knowing that it is a criminal organization, you must prove your innocence through the legal assistance of a criminal lawyer with extensive experience in voice phishing cases. Lee Gyeong-min, a lawyer at Daeryun Law Firm (Yuhan), advised, “In the case of voice phishing, it is necessary for neither the victims nor the wronged participants to be deceived by the bait thrown by the phishing organization in the first place.” He added, “If you do not know that it is voice phishing but recognize that it may be a crime, you can be found guilty, so you must secure data that can objectively prove your innocence and seek the help of a professional lawyer to ensure a smooth adjustment.” View full article - Voice phishing delivery methods are also subject to punishment for aiding and abetting fraud...

In fact, according to data from the Ministry of Public Administration and Security, the number of local public officials who received disciplinary action in 2021 reached 1,380. Civil servants are jobs that require high integrity and moral standards, and the National Civil Service Act stipulates civil servants' duty of sincerity, duty of secrecy, duty of integrity, and duty to maintain dignity. If these are violated, they will be subject to disciplinary action by the disciplinary committee for violation of the law. Punishment is determined according to the degree of illegality of the deviant act, but if a person receives severe disciplinary action such as dismissal or dismissal, he or she must resign from his/her position. Disciplinary measures that can be applied to public officials and teachers include dismissal, dismissal, and demotion. Dismissal and dismissal are classified as severe disciplinary action and exclusionary disciplinary action, demotion and suspension are classified as severe disciplinary action, and pay cuts and reprimands are considered light disciplinary action. Additionally, if you are sentenced to prison for a dishonorable case, you may not be able to receive a civil servant pension. In particular, due to the nature of the public service society, strict disciplinary responsibility is imposed for sexual misconduct such as so-called ‘gapjil’ misconduct, sexual harassment, and sexual harassment. The same goes for drunk driving and violent crimes. If the disciplinary committee's decision is unfair or excessive, a request for cancellation or change of the disciplinary action must be made through an appeal review. Appeal review refers to a special administrative review system for disciplinary actions against public officials and other unfavorable actions against their will. A public official may request review from the Appeals Review Committee within 30 days from the date of receiving a written explanation of the reasons for the disposition that explains what disciplinary action he or she will be subject to. At this time, the purpose and reason for the appeal must be stated in detail in the claim form, and the supporting materials required for minimum and change in disciplinary action must be summarized and submitted together. Attorney Jeon Hee-won of Daeryun Law Firm (Limited) advised, “It is important to proceed quickly with the appeal process based on legal grounds when it comes to reviewing civil servant disciplinary appeals. In order to lower the level of disciplinary action, a lawyer’s assistance is needed throughout the entire process from the time of inspection and inspection to the disciplinary committee proceedings.” View full article - In response to unfair disciplinary action, such as drunk driving, for public official misconduct, the appeal review process must be used. 2026-05-13T04:29:40.777Z https://www.daeryunlaw.com/en/broadcast/396 [The Power = Reporter Choi Soo-young] Cases of military sexual assault are increasing every year, emerging as a social problem. In fact, according to data released by the Ministry of National Defense, the number of rape and molestation cases between soldiers increased by 68.3%, from 405 cases in 2018 to 682 cases in 2021. The military is a major institution with great social responsibility for national security, and its political independence is guaranteed and responsibilities commensurate with its authority are granted. However, because the military is a special organization driven by class, individual rights are often ignored or neglected, which often leads to amplification of damage. However, it has been consistently pointed out that absurdities and incorrect dispositions are difficult to correct in reality because the authority to investigate and trial military-related crimes was not in civilian investigative agencies or courts, but rather in military prosecutors, military legal police, and military courts, which are organizations within the military. After the amendment to the Military Court Act, which was designed to overcome these limitations, was implemented, civilian judicial institutions were responsible for the investigation and first trial for sexual crimes, cases in which the victim died, and crimes committed before enlistment, even if the crime occurred within the military. Although it is said that independence in the investigation and trial process has been secured through the amendment, military criminal cases, including military sex crimes, are subject to military criminal law rather than general criminal law first when punishing criminal cases. In cases of crimes not specified in the military criminal law or when the victim is a civilian, the criminal law and other special laws are applied. In particular, sexual crimes committed by soldiers against other soldiers are severely punished under the Military Criminal Act because they are serious offenses that violate individual sexual freedom and undermine military discipline. Civilian rape is punishable by more than 3 years in prison under the Criminal Act, but rape under the Military Criminal Act is punishable by more than 5 years in prison. Attorney Jo Woo-ri of Daeryun Law Firm (Lihan) advised, “If you have been unfairly involved in a military sexual crime case, it is best to find a proactive solution to protect your rights, but it is necessary to seek the help of a military lawyer considering the special nature of the related crimes to which the Military Court Act applies.” View full article - Military criminal law applies to military criminal cases such as military sexual crimes, and if it is an unreasonable misunderstanding, a prompt and professional response must be taken. 2026-05-13T09:38:00.507Z https://www.daeryunlaw.com/en/broadcast/389 [Beyond Post Reporter Kim Hyeong-un] Daeryun Law Firm (Lihan) announced that it will open an office in Pohang, Gyeongbuk and a western office in Busan within this month.

But the divorce process is not that simple. Ideally, divorce should proceed smoothly with the agreement of both parties, but there are many issues that need to be resolved, such as alimony, custody, and property division, and conflict is inevitable due to differing opinions. In particular, the issue of property division, where a couple divides property acquired jointly during marriage according to their contribution, is an important process that can determine the quality of life thereafter, so you must make sure to do your part by clearly proving your contribution. Since property division is an economic issue, even if you live with your spouse, you must consider the possibility that the other spouse may have hidden some of his or her assets. Therefore, it is necessary to look at the couple's joint assets to ensure that the subject of property division is not omitted, and if the other party has hidden assets, it is a good idea to apply for preservation measures such as provisional seizure or injunction. Assets subject to division include not only deposits, real estate, and automobiles, but also pensions, severance pay, and debts. Joint debts are shared, and if the debt arises due to one party's extravagance or gambling, the person who caused the debt is responsible. In addition, unique property owned before marriage or acquired through inheritance, gift, etc. is not included in the division of divorce property. The ratio of property division varies depending on the level of contribution. In this case, the level of contribution does not necessarily include only direct income, and even if you are a full-time housewife who is not economically active, housework and participation in childcare can be recognized as contribution. Yoo Ji-won, a lawyer at Daeryun Law Firm, advised, “Conflicts over the division of divorce property can lead to long court battles, and everything from newlywed divorce to divorce at twilight is subject to difficult and difficult divorce litigation procedures.” He added, “If you want to properly take care of your share in the division of divorce property, you need to seek legal assistance from a divorce lawyer and closely examine the case to develop a detailed litigation strategy.” View full article - Divorce litigation procedures must be carried out carefully, the key issue of property division 2026-05-03T12:02:30.317Z https://www.daeryunlaw.com/en/broadcast/385 [Beyond Post Reporter Kim Hyeong-un] Recently, as the number of fraud victims due to voice phishing has increased, public opinion demanding strong punishment is growing. However, due to the difficulty of investigative agencies in apprehending the person in charge of voice phishing who led the crime, there are not many cases where effective and severe punishment is carried out. Voice phishing refers to a crime that uses electronic communication methods such as mobile phones to deceive or threaten others into sending or transferring funds or obtaining personal information. Recently, as phishing techniques have evolved, there have been many cases where part-time workers who are lured with high-paying part-time jobs as bait are used as transfer or collection methods to avoid being investigated. There are also many cases where bank accounts are transferred or rented without realizing that it is voice phishing after falling for a large reward amount. In reality, voice phishing organizations operate in the form of branch organizations, and most manager-level organization members, such as the head of the organization, have fled abroad or only give instructions from abroad from the beginning. Therefore, most of those punished for voice phishing in Korea are part-time workers or housewives who unknowingly participate in the crime. These voice phishing gang members use simple methods such as cash collection schemes to attract people by posting part-time job announcements with large incentives on internet job search sites or communities. If you are charged with aiding and abetting voice phishing fraud while acting as a cash transfer agent, you cannot avoid criminal liability simply because you did not know it was voice phishing. In addition, it is especially difficult to clear the suspicion when it is clear that a large amount of salary was paid in return for work. According to the Criminal Act, if you participate in a voice phishing crime and are found guilty of fraud, you will be subject to imprisonment for up to 10 years or a fine of up to 20 million won. Not only simple participants but also attempted criminals can be punished. Considering the negative social impact and damage, the rate of detention and investigation is high, and it often leads to a prison sentence in court. Lawyer Jang Eun-min of Daeryun Law Firm advised, “As the key point is to determine whether the crime of aiding and abetting fraud is established for a simple participant who is booked on suspicion of being a conveyancer or a collector, it is advisable to seek legal assistance from a criminal lawyer from the beginning of the case process to determine what is necessary to be acquitted or acquitted rather than simply maintaining the position of ‘it is unfair’ or ‘I did not know’.” View full article - Response plan when unfairly implicated in voice phishing 2026-04-29T08:21:51.979Z https://www.daeryunlaw.com/en/broadcast/383 ‘Special Committee on Promoting Convenience of Mobility for Persons with Disabilities’ identified six policy tasksContents such as spreading awareness of improving transportation convenience for disabled people, awareness of improving transportation convenience, etc. ‘Special Committee on Promotion of Mobility for Disabled Persons’(Special committee below)To ensure freedom of movement for all, policy tasks such as spreading awareness of disability-friendly mobility and improving individual transportation methods were proposed to the government..

Accordingly, it is necessary to expand benefits through public support and provide diverse and flexible support that meets the needs of disabled people.”While “Measures are needed to improve the certification system, establish a research control tower, and strengthen cooperation between related ministries so that the disabled are not left out in the rapidly changing development of new technologies.”He expressed that.

Accordingly, Special Commissioner Hong "To improve the mobility rights of people with disabilities, information on accessibility and transportation, such as wheelchair accessible locations, must be provided."Although "However, in Korea, information on transportation and convenience facilities is, Building accessible amenities information, Since much public data, such as information on subway elevators and elevator heights, is distributed depending on who creates and manages it, transportation convenience and accessibility data are managed as nationally important public data., Linkage and combination of private data and public data is necessary."He emphasized.View full article - ‘Freedom of Movement for All’ Yoonproposal to the government 2026-05-02T12:44:05.326Z https://www.daeryunlaw.com/en/broadcast/381 【 Anchor Comment 】In response to protests by disabled groups over subway delays, the Yoon Seok-yeol government created a special committee under the President in September last year to discuss mobility rights for the disabled. Did you know that private cars account for the highest proportion of 30% in the survey of transportation methods for the disabled?

Overseas, finished cars have been developed and commercialized. Even companies are jumping in to make it possible for disabled people to ride and drive comfortably, but the biggest difference with Korea is the government's non-discriminatory financial support. In Korea, the Employment Agency for the Disabled only supports the installation of driving assistance devices for working disabled people, so only 1.2 billion won was spent last year. In the 2020 survey, one in three disabled people answered that they use their own cars the most when going out.

Many people take it lightly because they say it out of anger, but this is an illegal act that carries legal responsibility. As non-face-to-face activities using social media have increased recently due to the COVID-19 incident as well as online games, there are many cases where young students who still lack discernment are accused of using obscene communication media while exchanging dirty jokes or conversations for sexual purposes while using Instagram or KakaoTalk. There are many cases where so-called ‘prostitution hunters’ become involved in planned complaints and seek out prostitution lawyers. Even online, personal attacks or sexual comments that cause shame can be punished as ‘obscenity using communication media (Article 13)’ under the Sexual Violence Punishment Act. Obscenity using communication media is a sexual crime committed when words, images, or videos that cause sexual shame or discomfort reach the other person through communication media such as a computer. If a person who commits a sexual crime is guilty, he or she will be sentenced to imprisonment for up to 2 years or a fine of up to 20 million won in accordance with the Sexual Violence Punishment Act. If the act does not cause sexual shame or disgust, the crime of indecency using communication media is not established. However, in this case, the standard for determining whether or not it causes sexual shame or disgust is to check whether it goes against the sexual morality of the average person in society. Since the crime of indecency using communication media usually has sufficient evidence such as captured images or recordings, and is not a crime of impunity against the will, punishment can be avoided even if it is simply explained as a prank or mistake or if an agreement is reached with the victim. None. However, there are cases where it is possible to avoid the risk of punishment by responding carefully from the beginning of the incident. Last month, there was also a case in which the Seoul Western District Court found the act of posting an unhealthy picture on an online community site not an ‘act that allowed it to reach the other person.’ Kim Gwang-deok, a lawyer at Daeryun Law Firm’s Criminal Center, said, “Because prostitution is a sex crime, if a punishment higher than a fine is imposed, security measures may be imposed separately from criminal punishment, and various disadvantages may follow when returning to society.” He added, “It is better not to get involved in the crime in the first place, but if related He advised, “If you are investigated by the police on suspicion of sexual violence, it is necessary to consult with a lawyer specializing in prostitution and sexual crimes who has extensive experience in sexual violence cases.” Read the full article - YouTube and game prostitution, security measures will follow along with criminal sanctions - The Power News 2026-05-12T07:19:49.935Z https://www.daeryunlaw.com/en/broadcast/378 Embezzlement is a crime that occurs when a person who keeps another person's property embezzles it or refuses to return it. It can be broadly applied, from careless use of meeting dues and money, to personal use of company funds, to secretly stealing bank deposits. If the charge is confirmed and you are sentenced to prison, you will be sentenced to up to 5 years in prison or a fine of 15 million won. Among embezzlement crimes, if you commit the crime of embezzlement in violation of your work duties, you will be sentenced to up to 10 years in prison and up to 30 million won in prison. The level of punishment increases with fines. In particular, in the case of business embezzlement, if the value of the property embezzled is more than 500 million won but less than 5 billion won, the Act on the Aggravated Punishment of Specific Economic Crimes (Special Police Act) applies, and the person can be sentenced to imprisonment for a fixed term of three years or more. If the amount of damage is more than 5 billion won, you can be sentenced to life imprisonment or more than 5 years in prison under the Special Police Act. In the case of business embezzlement, cases of embezzlement of large sums of money mainly from companies or banks are regarded as a social problem. Not long ago, after being sentenced to 1 year and 6 months in prison for business embezzlement by the Suwon District Court, news was reported that he was caught again and sentenced to prison again, sparking debate among netizens. An important element of this crime of embezzlement is the intention to illegally acquire property. The intention to illegally obtain property refers to the intention of a person who keeps another person's property to dispose of the property as if it were his or her own, in fact or legally, without authority, for the benefit of himself or a third party, contrary to the purpose of entrustment. Therefore, a person suspected of business embezzlement may be subject to criminal punishment if he or she fails to prove with clear evidence that he or she has no intention to illegally acquire property. Work does not only refer to cases where work is performed in accordance with laws or contracts, but also includes customs, de facto status, and cases in which the same act is repeated. Attorney Kang Dong-hoon of Daeryun Law Firm (Limited) advised, “To determine whether there was an intention to obtain illegal profits in the case of embezzlement while on the job, you should carefully check the specific actions, the circumstances leading up to the embezzlement, the embezzled amount, and how it was used, and then seek the help of a criminal lawyer.” “Because the true nature of the case must be identified based on objective circumstantial evidence, it is wise to consult with a criminal lawyer from the beginning of the case and prepare an appropriate response plan,” he added.

Yoon At the held at the Yongsan Presidential Office this afternoon, the President mentioned integration in a constitutional sense, saying, "I am a person who studied law, so in Germany, what kind of mechanism for so-called national integration is considered, it is enshrined in the Constitution. So, I see the Constitution as a process and a mechanism for achieving a certain assimilation integration of the people. In the end, it seems to refer to a certain value-oriented integration process contained in the Constitution." He continued, "In our country, freedom is achieved in the liberal democracy of the current Constitution. “There are forces with such large-scale opinions who argue that it should be erased and deleted, so it is truly a country where stable integration is very difficult,” he said. It revealed the perception that national unity is not possible because the current opposition camp, including the Democratic Party, is an anti-constitutional force that does not recognize ‘freedom.’ However, the current opposition party did not deny the meaning of liberal democracy, but denied that it believed that the term ‘democracy’ contained the connotation of ‘liberal democracy.’ It can be seen as an ideological division of the people by emphasizing only the ‘freedom’ values of President Yoon himself and the conservative camp. Furthermore, President Yoon said, “If the government grows by leaps and bounds and makes an economic leap, some kind of integration may be achieved in the process,” and also indicated that in the current reality, economic growth should be pursued with a conservative policy stance based on market freedom rather than integration. However, President Yoon said, “If social conflict and division are severe, we should not enjoy welfare as welfare.” There is a lot of social waste because all of our precious production value is used up in fighting division and conflict, and there are many cases where the things that future generations should enjoy are being used up as weapons in this fight, so reducing this social conflict and division and uniting the people as one is truly very important for national development and overcoming the crisis.” Kim Han-gil, chairman of the National Integration Committee, said at the meeting, “The National Integration Committee is also essential for national unity. “We reviewed what needs to be done and what can be done, and selected national integration promotion strategies and key tasks as a roadmap for the next five years. In particular, next year, 2023, we will focus on the two themes of youth and the socially disadvantaged, and select tasks with high national interest and timeliness to find solutions.” He continued, “President Yoon is working hard to achieve national unity more actively than any other president. He said, “It is a policy orientation and methodology that expresses philosophy and passion in a way that touches the skin of members of our society.” Chairman Kim also said, “I am not the only one who feels uneasy every time I see the President working tirelessly despite a tight schedule amidst unpredictable situations every day.” Attending the briefing session were Kim Han-gil, chairman of the National Integration Committee, Jae-cheon Choi, attorney representing the Heritage Law Firm, Woo-young Lee, professor at Seoul National University, In-soon Cha, adjunct professor at the National Assembly Research Institute, Professor Min-jeon Kim at Kyung Hee University, former National Assembly member Young-woo Kim, and professor Hyun-chul Lee at Konkuk University.

It is a crime that is more condemnable than simple embezzlement in that it involves abandoning one's professional duties and committing a crime, and the punishment is more severe. According to Article 355 of the Criminal Act, embezzlement and breach of trust are punishable by imprisonment for up to 5 years or a fine of up to 15 million won, but professional embezzlement is treated more seriously than simple embezzlement in that the crime is committed for one's own benefit. In the case of professional embezzlement and professional breach of trust, A person who commits a crime specified in Article 355 of the Criminal Act will be punished by imprisonment for not more than 10 years or a fine of not more than 30 million won. Since the crime of embezzlement in business is not a light punishment in that it is a property crime committed against another person's property, the crime of property crime, including embezzlement in business, must be carefully checked professionally and carefully to ensure that unfair charges are not applied and established in the person's position. In addition, it is necessary to carefully check the requirements for establishing a property crime, including business embezzlement, and be careful to prevent unfair charges from being applied or established. If the value of property or property interests (hereinafter referred to as ‘gain amount’) is more than 500 million won, the Act on Aggravated Punishment for Specific Economic Crimes applies. If the amount of gain is 500 million won or more but less than 5 billion won, the person can be sentenced to imprisonment for a fixed term of 3 years or more, and if the amount of gain is more than 5 billion won, the person can be sentenced to imprisonment for life or more than 5 years. When being investigated for business embezzlement, the circumstances of the embezzlement and attribution of civil ownership become major issues, and legal review is very important because the judgment can vary depending on whether or not it is proven. In addition, even if found guilty, damages can be reduced through repayment, agreement, etc. In particular, the intention to acquire illegally is important, and whether the disposal was arbitrarily contrary to the purpose of the owner's entrustment and whether there was an intention to illegally acquire the property in the process become important issues in the lawsuit. Attorney Kim So-yul of Daeryun Law Firm said, "If you are accused of professional embezzlement, it is most important to prove that your actions were not for personal gain." “If you have been wrongfully implicated, you need to thoroughly prepare for a lawsuit with a criminal lawyer,” he advised. - View full article - If you are unfairly accused of criminal punishment for business embezzlement, you must respond quickly (lawissue.co.kr) 2026-05-09T11:51:22.978Z https://www.daeryunlaw.com/en/broadcast/333 [The Power = Reporter Choi Byeong-soo] Infidelity refers to any act that violates the duty of chastity that a couple must maintain, in addition to a physical relationship with someone other than their spouse. Since the crime of adultery has been abolished, criminal punishment is impossible for a spouse and a person who has committed adultery, but it is a ground for divorce under Article 840 of the Civil Code and at the same time, liability for damages is attached. A lawsuit for incest and incest is a lawsuit that claims alimony when the marriage relationship breaks down or mental damage is suffered as a result of an extramarital affair between the spouse and the adulterer, and it must be possible to prove that the incestuous person committed an unfaithful act while knowing that he or she was married. Unlike past adultery charges, evidence of adultery is required. Sexual intercourse does not necessarily have to be a prerequisite, and can range from text messages that can be assumed to be a romantic relationship, lodging history and CCTV, card receipts, vehicle black boxes, recordings, KakaoTalk conversations, and accompanying immigration and departure records. Evidence must be collected legally. This is because if you collect evidence illegally, or go to the workplace of an adulterous man or woman out of anger and use violence against them, or expose the affair, you may be counter-sued for defamation or assault. If necessary, in the case of evidence of an affair, the possibility of the spouse or adulterer destroying the evidence before collection cannot be ruled out, so it is necessary to file a separate application for evidence preservation. This is to take action in advance so that a normal evidence investigation can be conducted. Since clear proof and collection of evidence through legal methods are necessary, it is necessary to understand and apply for preservation of evidence in detail. The statute of limitations for an incestuous alimony lawsuit is that the lawsuit must be filed within 3 years from the date of learning of the spouse's infidelity and 10 years from the date of the illegal act. Law firm (Yuhan) Daeryun's lawyer Kwon Min-kyung advised, “In addition to simple evidence of infidelity, in a lawsuit claiming alimony for an incestuous person, you must objectively prove that you committed infidelity despite knowing that you were married. Since there are many cases where the affair itself is denied, a delicate strategy is needed, so you should seek the help of a divorce attorney.” View full article - Incestuous incest divorce lawsuit, if you cannot prove the fact of infidelity, you will lose.

It is one of the representative problems that harm the people's economy along with illegal private financing, cyber gambling, and gambling games. In particular, recently, as the household economy has faced difficulties due to the long-term economic downturn, people who have no way to make a living right away or are in dire need of money are being exploited to engage in phishing crimes, which is unfair. There are many cases of criminals becoming criminals. In order to prevent such damage from voice phishing, financial authorities are strengthening the document verification process to eradicate cannon bank accounts and double-checking the purpose of the transaction when actually transacting, but criminal organizations are also evolving in sophisticated ways. Overseas-based voice phishing criminal organizations use a variety of criminal methods, and in the case of Korea, people who contact people after writing a message on a job search site or community saying that they will pay a large amount of daily wages will only keep the bank account for a short time. They often use cut-and-dried methods, such as offering to pay if they lend money or instructing them to withdraw cash from a notified account. As crimes are committed in this way, there are bound to be many cases in which the delivery or collection agent, who is not the head or executive level of the organization, does as they are told without knowing the details and is arrested. Even if they were not accurately aware of the fact that they were illegally withdrawing phishing damages in cash, if there were suspicious circumstances, it would be considered intentional and unfiltered, so even if it is a first offense. Heavy punishment may be imposed. Attorney Shin Dong-hoon of Daeryun Law Firm advised, "As criminal methods are becoming more sophisticated day by day, the general public needs to be more careful. If you are involved in voice phishing, such as falling into the trap of a voice phishing organization and participating in a crime, you must take active measures to resolve the problem and reduce the sentence through a voice phishing lawyer with specialized legal knowledge."

Given that it is an act of threatening an unspecified number of people, the crime is not light, and caution is needed as it often results in the death of the victim. In particular, caution is needed in drunk driving because it can easily cloud rational judgment because the driver is in a drunken state. If a person is injured in a drunk driving traffic accident, the crime of causing death by dangerous driving is established under the Aggravated Punishment for Specific Crimes Act. If the victim dies, this is a case that can result in heavy punishment, including life imprisonment. In addition to criminal liability, civil and administrative responsibility cannot be avoided, and license suspension or license cancellation is issued depending on the blood alcohol level. Additionally, due to revisions to insurance standards, insurance payments for drunk driving accidents are sometimes denied, increasing the burden on the suspect. Fear of punishment when driving while drunk causes an accident, so they flee the scene without providing relief or reporting to the victim. In this case, you will be subject to severe punishment for hit and run. This only makes the punishment heavier as the crime of fleeing causing injury is applied. Traffic accidents caused by drunk driving are an act that threatens road safety, and there is a risk of being sentenced to prison even if there is no criminal record. If the victim suffers injury or death due to failure to take action after the accident, the crime is bound to be dealt with seriously.

It can occur in many places, including companies, organizations, and private gatherings. If found guilty, they are subject to imprisonment for up to 10 years or a fine of up to 30 million won. Although employees of financial institutions or accounting managers within companies are often involved, it can occur anywhere else as well. Even in private gatherings such as alumni associations or clubs, collecting and storing membership fees between members is considered business-related storage, so if public funds are used arbitrarily, the charge can be acknowledged. The work referred to in the crime of embezzlement does not only refer to cases performed by law or contract, but also includes cases of custom, de facto status, and cases in which the person is in a position to repeat the same act. Therefore, even if you do not perform work that directly deals with money, if you are in a position to store other people's property in reality, there is ample room for the crime of business embezzlement to be established. However, in order for business embezzlement to be established, the actor must be confirmed with intent to obtain it intentionally or illegally. The intention to illegally acquire property refers to the intention of a person who is entrusted with another person's property to dispose of the property for the benefit of himself or a third party, contrary to the purpose or purpose of entrusting the property. The intention to obtain illegal profits must be judged based on objective circumstantial evidence, such as the circumstances of the embezzlement, the amount of the embezzlement, and how it was used. It should also be taken into account that property crimes, such as business embezzlement, are subject to more severe punishment depending on the amount of damage caused by the embezzlement. If you have gained more than 500 million won through business embezzlement, you may be subject to imprisonment for a term of 3 years or more under the Act on the Aggravated Punishment of Specific Economic Crimes. The weight of punishment for embezzlement crimes is bound to vary depending on what charges are applied and recognized, and if the litigation process is prolonged, it becomes difficult for the parties involved. In addition, the facts are complex and it is difficult to secure evidence. Attorney Choi Han-sik of Daeryun Law Firm advised, “Business-related embezzlement is a case in which it is difficult to receive relief or resolve misunderstandings if the establishment requirements are not properly understood, so we must systematically respond to the investigation and trial by receiving legal assistance from a criminal lawyer with experience in cases in the relevant field.” View full article - Professional embezzlement is subject to criminal punishment equal to the amount of illegal embezzlement. It gets heavier (globalepic.co.kr) 2026-05-06T10:33:13.719Z https://www.daeryunlaw.com/en/broadcast/329 [Reporter Roishu Jin Ga-yeong] Despite the increasingly stringent punishment for drunk driving and the continued social atmosphere condemning drunk driving, traffic accidents caused by drunk driving are rarely severed. Drunk driving can be said to be a serious crime that threatens not only one's life, but also the victim's life. Drunk driving traffic accidents, which can lead to irreparable consequences due to wrong drinking habits, are serious in terms of damage, and even a minor accident can cause significant damage, so legal consultation is necessary for post-accident solutions, punishment, and compensation for victims. The Road Traffic Act prohibits drunk driving, and the court determines the specific sentence by considering the number of past drunk driving arrests and the circumstances of the arrest. At this time, if you have a history of habitual drunk driving, you will be punished more severely. In addition, if you drive a car while drinking and have a blood alcohol concentration of 0.03% or higher and are unable to make normal thoughts or judgments and cause a car accident, it is considered one of the 12 gross negligence offenses under the Traffic Accident Punishment Act, so even if it is your first offense, you will be indicted and tried and punished according to the level of the crime. Unlike general traffic accidents, if you cause an accident while drunk driving, regardless of whether there is agreement or insurance. It is difficult to avoid punishment. Unlike general traffic accidents, drunk driving traffic accidents that fall under the 12th category of gross negligence do not fall under the crime of wrongful action, so even if an agreement is reached with the victim, criminal punishment is inevitable. Therefore, if you become the perpetrator of a drunk driving traffic accident, there are limits to how an ordinary person can respond directly, and legal assistance from a professional lawyer is essential as a response strategy must be prepared by thoroughly analyzing the situation at the scene at the time of the accident. Attorney Oh Chang-geun of Daeryun Law Firm said, “Drunk driving traffic accidents “If you cause a traffic accident, it is a serious crime that is likely to result in aggravated punishment for violating the Special Act, so it is necessary to appoint a drunk driving traffic accident lawyer with extensive experience from the beginning and secure the elements of your sentencing as much as possible,” he advised.

With the abolition of adultery in 2015, criminal punishment for those who committed adultery with the other spouse became impossible, but it is possible to claim alimony in the concept of compensation for damage caused by infidelity. Under civil law, a lawsuit can be filed for alimony for infidelity against a spouse who committed an affair and the adulterer, and since it is a separate case from the divorce proceedings at trial, alimony can be claimed only for the adulterer without proceeding with the divorce from the spouse. The statute of limitations for claims for incest and incest data is A lawsuit must be filed within 3 years from the date of learning of the affair and within 10 years from the first period of the affair. Compensation varies depending on the reason for the fault, but is usually set at around 10 million won to 30 million won. The purpose of these adulterous lawsuits is to obtain satisfactory compensation, so it is important to prepare the lawsuit carefully. First, it must be proven with objective evidence that the at-fault spouse and the adulterer have continued to have an illicit relationship. This is because in order to receive compensation, there must be clear evidence that the family was broken up due to an affair with a married person and that the spouse suffered mental damage as a result. As evidence of infidelity, a variety of materials can be used, such as messenger conversations between spouses and infidelity, SNS history, and vehicle black boxes. Such infidelity evidence, when obtained through illegal methods such as through a detective agency or errand center, is not only not recognized by the court as evidence, but is also subject to criminal punishment in many cases, so it must be collected through legal procedures. Attorney Kwak Hye-jin of Daeryun Law Firm said, “If you find out about your spouse’s affair, only the emotional part is involved. He advised, “It is not right to claim first, and the process of collecting evidence and the results must all be legal and clear in order to obtain a favorable result for you.” He added, “Even if you do not divorce, you can only claim alimony from the adulterer. If you cheat again after the lawsuit, you can file a lawsuit repeatedly, so it is better to respond with the legal assistance of a divorce lawyer.” See the full article - Incestuous person lawsuit, alimony claim lawsuit without divorce It’s possible (beyondpost.co.kr) 2026-05-12T10:45:31.497Z https://www.daeryunlaw.com/en/broadcast/327 [Global Epic Reporter Seongsu Lee] When self-employed people and businessmen run a business or store, many contracts are entered into, knowingly or unknowingly, and numerous credit and debt relationships are formed in the process. At this time, care must be taken with receivables, i.e. receivables, as they can easily cause business disruption if they are not returned on time. As for rights to receivables, various laws, including the Civil Code, stipulate a statute of limitations in which the rights are lost if the rights are not properly exercised within a certain period of time. Therefore, you must file a claim and collect the uncollected amount before the statute of limitations expires. Representatively, in the case of product payments, there are many cases where you wait and suffer losses because the statute of limitations has passed even though you are not receiving payment due to problems with the future transaction relationship with the other party. In such cases, it is difficult to unconditionally demand payment due to the burden of losing your supplier in the market, so even though you are the person who must receive the money while waiting for the return of the payment, there are various types of loans. Carrying the burden of interest, taxes, etc. increases the business burden. The statute of limitations for goods is stipulated to apply 3 years, which is the statute of limitations for commercial claims, pursuant to Article 163 of the Civil Act. However, since it starts from the date of payment, that is, the date on which the price is due, the prescription period is also applied differently for each contract. Therefore, when filing a lawsuit for the price of goods, the exact prescription period or the factors that stopped the prescription (filing a lawsuit or requesting a payment order) are applied differently. It is important to secure materials that can prove verbal or repayment reminders or proof of content). In addition, tax invoices and text messages exchanged during the transaction process with the other party can be used as evidence. “Problems related to uncollected payments that commonly arise in transaction (contract) relationships can be resolved through billing lawsuits,” said Jang Moon-gyu, attorney at Daeryun Law Firm. “Because the legal process is complicated.” He advised, “It is best to prepare with legal assistance from a lawyer specializing in damages.” Click here for the full article - It is necessary to proceed with a lawsuit to claim payment for goods before the statute of limitations for receivables, and even receive compensation for damages (globalepic.co.kr) 2026-05-14T01:21:07.710Z https://www.daeryunlaw.com/en/broadcast/326 Daeryun Law Firm (Lihan)'s Criminal and Sexual Crimes Specialized Center announced that it has recruited representative attorney Ahn Seung-jin (photo, 28th class of the Judicial Research and Training Institute), a former chief prosecutor of the Gwangju Public Prosecutor's Office.

CJ is ‘On Style’ and Lotte is ‘On and the Style’, and they are similar from name to design. In particular, Lotte used the word ‘On Style’ in its advertising video. CJ sent Lotte a proof of contents to initiate legal proceedings on the 25th, and Lotte Shopping plans to determine the level of response through consultation with external legal experts. This is an exclusive report by reporter Moon Da-ae. [Reporter] On the left is Lotte’s recently launched fashion platform ‘ON AND THE STYLE’, and on the right is ‘CJ ONSTYLE’, CJ’s representative distribution platform and fashion business. The two brands, which have similar names, look exactly like twins from their logo images. Lotte writes ‘AND THE’ in small letters among ‘On And The Style’. ‘ON’ and ‘STYLE’ are directly connected, reminding us of CJ’s ‘On Style’. The unique design concept is also similar. CJ OnStyle is characterized by ‘repeated use of a circular design’ using its signature color ‘purple’. This is something that CJ registered as a trademark in 2003. However, Lotte also selected ‘purple’ as its core color and repeatedly used the ‘circular design’. It is more difficult to tell the difference when watching the video advertisement. Lotte used ‘On Style’ in its video advertisement. On the first screen of the video, after ‘OnStyle’ appears, ‘Ander’ is written in small letters and then disappears. From the brand name to the logo design and advertising video, ‘OnStyle’ is highlighted, so it seems likely that general consumers may mistake it for CJ. CJ OnStyle, which opened in 2004 as CJ ENM’s representative fashion lifestyle channel, has been known to the public as a fashion brand for nearly 20 years, and has also been widely used as the cover of CJ ENM’s fashion channel, promoting fashion to the public. It has long been recognized as a related e-commerce service. CJ OnStyle, which is developing a number of fashion PB brands, is the core of CJ's fashion business, and based on its high recognition, it became the first in the industry to enter the 'Fashion 1 trillion club' last year. CJ suspects that Lotte, a latecomer, has borrowed CJ's brand image without permission to attract consumers. Experts are of the opinion that there is a possibility of legal conflict. [Kim Dong-jin/Attorney at Daeryun Law Firm] “It will be a big problem for CJ and Lotte’s On Style and On and the Style that they are similar in terms of trade conventions. In the case of Lotte, they added Ander to On Style, which ended up showing a similar form to CJ On Style, the main color is purple, and in conclusion, even the video advertisement gives the impression that it is similar, so this can be considered a violation of trademark law. “There are a lot of them.” CJ is also far ahead of its time in registering trademark rights. CJ registered ‘On Style’ in 2003, and Lotte registered ‘On and the Style’ in 2018. However, Lotte’s trademark rights were limited to offline and there were no online trademark rights. Accordingly, Lotte registered additional trademark rights for e-commerce in August of this year, saying it would expand its fashion business online. However, Lotte's new trademark registration is also raising suspicions of plagiarism. This is because new logo designs were registered for two services, beauty (On and the Beauty) and luxury goods (On and the Luxury), but the logo for the fashion (On and the Style) service was not registered. This is why it is pointed out that the case was taken into consideration in the case where trademark rights overlap with those of CJ and cannot be registered. CJ said, “We are internally aware of the seriousness of the case where the brand name as well as the logo image expression were expressed to look quite similar, and we are considering legal action.” Lotte, on the other hand, countered, saying, “It is a coincidence and there is no intention to infringe trademark rights.” Lotte Shopping launched the ‘On and the’ vertical service series for each product group to strengthen its online business ‘Lotte On’ this year, and ‘On and the Style’ is also part of that. Regarding the similarity between the advertisement and the image, it said, “Purple is this year’s trend color, so it is reflected,” and explained, “The emphasis on On Style at the beginning of the advertisement is simply to emphasize ‘style.’” Also, regarding the fact that the logo design was not registered only for the fashion (On and the Style) business, “At the time, “It is because the design has not been finalized.” Lotte plans to decide on a response plan after seeking legal advice. As both sides are currently at odds, the outcome is difficult to predict. [Kim Dong-jin/Attorney at Daeryun Law Firm] “If these plagiarism controversies continue to arise, there is a concern that the overall competitiveness of the domestic industry may eventually be weakened, so it appears that such risky plagiarism should be taken into consideration.” This is Moon Da-ae of Edaily TV.

The association directly purchases land and prepares construction costs to promote the project. Therefore, apartments can be purchased at a lower price than general apartment construction or sales involving a developer. Another advantage is that you can buy your own home through simple procedures, such as not needing a subscription account. There are things to be careful about when participating in the local housing association project, which is considered a means of purchasing your own home. This is because cases of becoming a member of a local housing association after being deceived by exaggerated advertisements and then becoming victims of fraud occur quite frequently. Not long ago, it was reported that embezzlement and fraud worth 29 billion won related to a local housing association was discovered in Cheongju, and members suffered enormous financial damage. There are many cases where local housing association projects stagnate for several years due to difficulties in purchasing due to land owners' difficulties, and there are many cases of local housing association fraud, such as the association not handling the work properly or pursuing the project with the intention of obtaining financial gain from the beginning. This occurs. If there is a defect in the association membership contract itself, local housing association members can claim invalidity or cancellation of the contract and request withdrawal and return of payments. Specifically, reasons such as violation of the obligation to specify and explain under the Terms and Conditions Regulation Act, legal acts of anti-social order, unfair legal acts, illegal acts caused by fraud or duress, or non-performance of obligations may be cited as reasons. Although fraud may not be committed simply because business is delayed, if a union member is recruited using obviously false information or inflated facts to induce them to pay contributions, they can be legally punished for fraud. Attorney Kim Yong-tae of Daeryun Law Firm said: “The law has been revised to prevent damage caused by local housing association fraud, but it is basically a system that makes withdrawal and refund difficult, so you must be careful about signing up.” Advised.

Or, when real estate prices are falling like now, a tin lease occurs when the lease deposit is higher than the sale price..[anchor]How is that possible? Is there an institutional loophole??[answer]In fact, it is true that tenants lack information..So, a lot of it is derived from the difference in access to information..The biggest cause of this is that the tenant does not know the appropriate rental price on his own, does not know whether he is in arrears with the landlord, and does not know the level of the seniority deposit set., Second, in a situation like now where real estate prices are falling, it is better for landlords to give up the house than to return the deposit because they are considering profit and loss., Sometimes I make decisions like this.The third is to take advantage of the loopholes in opposition..Looking at the current Housing Lease Guarantee Act, its opposing power is 1Day 0Issued to the city.So, since it takes effect the next day, if a lease contract is signed on that day and the landlord places a lien on the house and takes out a loan using the collateral, the tenant is ultimately pushed to the bottom of the list..[anchor]So, ultimately, I think that policies for tenants, that is, people who rent houses, should be more thoroughly supplemented. What do you think??[answer]So, the Ministry of Land, Infrastructure and Transport recently issued a press release about the tenant protection system..So, you said that the biggest cause is the lack of tenant information..so 'Self-diagnosis safe charter app'We are building something called.This is next year 1It will be released in March.Within this app, you can find the appropriate rent for the residence you wish to move into or information about malicious landlords., Also, information on whether it is an illegal or unlicensed building is also provided here..Management of rental business operators has been strengthened, and since this happens a lot in the case of new villas, a fair price calculation system for new villas is also being established..And legally, as we said earlier,, The amendment to the Housing Lease Protection Act has been announced as legislation..Therefore, the tenant's right to request consent to request the landlord to provide information about the senior deposit is stipulated., It is being revised to make it obligatory for the lessor to agree to this..Second, you can ask your landlord for a tax payment certificate.This is done to confirm tax payment or whether national or local taxes are delinquent., Thirdly, for small tenants, the highest priority repayment amount will be adjusted upward..Currently in the case of Gwangju Metropolitan City, 7It's less than 10 million won. 8,500It is adjusted upward to less than 10,000 won., Priority repayment amount 2,300It’s less than 10,000 won 500It was increased by 10,000 won 2,800It will be raised to less than 10,000 won..In line with this, the standard housing rental contract is also being revised, and in order to prevent fraud using that opposing force, it is stipulated that the landlord is prohibited from establishing a lien on the house until the day after the tenant decides to report the move-in..[anchor]As mentioned earlier, I think it is important to carefully examine the contract from the beginning..So, what are some things tenants should carefully consider before signing a contract?.[answer]What is more important than the legal and institutional systems is for tenants to carefully inspect them..You should visit several real estate properties to check information on surrounding market prices, and then carefully look at the real estate register to check information about the senior deposit..Since you need to check whether it is an illegal building, check the building ledger, and if the sale price and the lease price are similar, the lessor is often registered as a rental business..In such a case, it is mandatory to sign up for warranty insurance, so please check the subscription and check whether the lessor and the landlord are the same person, and even if they are the same person, check their ID cards. Then, if there is a separate building manager, you should carefully check the extent to which they have been delegated by the landlord..[anchor]You talked about a number of things to look out for, but what should you do if you don't receive the deposit or the house goes up for auction despite paying such attention??[answer]In fact, if you hide like this, there is no way you can find it..Then, as consumers, we have no choice but to rely on the police investigation..Once the police files a complaint for fraud and fortunately, if the whereabouts are found, a civil lawsuit may be possible, but even if possible, there are many cases where recovery will not be possible..So, a one-stop support center was recently established for victims of such jeonse fraud..So, they say they provide emergency loans at low interest rates for people who haven't received a deposit, and provide temporary housing for tenants who don't have a place to live right now..[anchor]Lastly, this type of real estate fraud, Could you please tell me what kind of punishment is possible and how much responsibility can be imposed??[answer]So, in terms of criminal law, 'fraud'Depending on my type 'crime of forgery of private documents'It's also possible.Fraud is a crime under criminal law. 10Imprisonment of up to one year or 2It is a very serious crime punishable by a fine of less than 10 million won..If a licensed real estate agent participates in this act, he or she can be considered a co-principal or abettor of fraud, and the licensed real estate agent is separately subject to the Certified Real Estate Agent Act. 3Imprisonment of up to one year or 3It is a very serious crime that can result in a fine of less than 10 million won and even suspension of qualifications or cancellation of registration, apart from liability for damages..[anchor]Since it is truly a crime targeting the common people, it seems that strict punishment is needed..I'll listen to today's story here..Thank you.View article text-https://news.kbs.co.kr/news/view.do?ncd=5611693&ref=A 2026-05-12T13:24:26.991Z https://www.daeryunlaw.com/en/broadcast/134 Recently, voice phishing techniques have evolved from existing face-to-face fraud methods, and the number of victims is increasing. In fact, according to the National Police Agency, among the voice phishing crimes that occurred in Korea last year, face-to-face voice phishing amounted to 22,752 cases. As screening and crackdown on the issuance of bankbooks, which are essential for existing phishing methods, were strengthened and it became difficult to secure the means of crime, face-to-face stealing methods, which are relatively easy to commit, increased. Face-to-face voice phishing refers to a method in which a withdrawal agent (a person in charge of withdrawing money from another person's account in a criminal organization, etc.) receives money directly. This type of face-to-face voice phishing crime uses an errand boy to meet the victim in person to collect cash and transfer the money to the voice phishing organization's account in order to avoid the investigative net and minimize damage to the organization. Therefore, it is used by attracting the general public to prevent damage to the organization even if arrested. It is difficult to catch up with the entire organization, including the so-called 'chief' who planned the crime, and job seekers or job seekers who have difficulty finding jobs due to the economic downturn are often used as delivery agents and collection agents and then end up taking legal responsibility. Recently, it became a hot topic when a case was reported in which a person was contacted in Suwon that he had passed the job as a secretary at a law office, but he thought the work he was instructed to do was strange and was able to go to the scene with the police to prevent damage. If you are involved in a face-to-face fraud-type crime, it is simple. Even if a participant is found to have committed an act of negligence, it is difficult to avoid being charged with aiding and abetting fraud, and he or she must be held financially responsible for the amount of damage caused by the crime. Fraud is a property crime punishable by imprisonment for up to 10 years or a fine of up to 20 million won, and aiding and abetting offenders are also subject to heavy punishment. Moreover, in recent years, there is a strong tendency to closely examine the circumstances of those who acted as cash transfer agents or remittance agents to determine whether or not they committed a crime, and voice phishing itself is viewed as a serious charge, so even those who simply participated or were first-time offenders are sentenced to imprisonment. Kim In-won of Daeryun (Limited) Law Firm, a former chief prosecutor, said The lawyer said, “In face-to-face voice phishing crimes, it is important to legally prove that you have been unfairly used by a criminal organization to avoid being accused of being an accomplice as much as possible,” adding, “It is best to seek professional assistance from a voice phishing lawyer with extensive experience in handling related cases and respond accordingly.” Advised.

At this time, even if there is a divorce, the parent's obligation to support the child does not disappear, so the party who is not designated as the custodian must fulfill his/her obligation by paying child support. In order to provide a child with food, clothing, and shelter and an average living environment, significant costs are bound to be incurred, and especially in divorced families raising a child alone, it is never easy to cover all costs through the economic activities of only one parent. The obligation to pay child support does not disappear even if the financial situation is difficult and the ability is not sufficient. Therefore, in situations where child support cannot be paid, it is necessary to apply for a reduction in child support to pay at least the minimum amount of child support. However, the child support compliance rate among divorced couples in Korea is low. In fact, even if payment was promised from the non-payer of child support through the Child Support Implementation Management Center, only 38.3% received proper child support last year. If the other party who is obligated to pay child support does not pay child support on time after divorce, he or she can file a legal procedure to claim child support. You can claim unpaid child support using the direct payment order system, provision of collateral, or lump sum payment order system. In addition, if child support once decided is insufficient depending on the situation, it can be reduced or increased based on reasonable grounds. For example, if circumstances change, such as an increase in medical expenses due to a child suffering from an illness that requires long-term treatment, or if a reduction in child support is necessary due to the worsening economic situation of the party who must pay child support, child support may be increased or reduced through agreement between the parties or by filing a request with the court. The Seoul Family Court has revised and made public the standard for calculating child support last year, and the Ministry of Gender Equality and Family also plans to increase child support compliance rates for those who do not fulfill child support obligations for more than 90 days even after receiving a performance order. In this case, sanctions are being imposed by adding debtors subject to requests such as disclosure of personal information, ban on leaving the country, and suspension of driver's license. Attorney Yang Yang of Daeryun Law Firm (Limited) said, “If you do not fulfill your responsibilities as a parent and unilaterally do not fulfill your child support obligations without taking any action, you may be subject to various sanctions.” He added, “If child support has been habitually unpaid for a long period of time, you can claim any amount of unpaid child support through a lawsuit, so you can seek the legal advice of a divorce and family law lawyer. “I hope you will seek help and respond proactively.” See full text of article - http://kids.donga.com/?ptype=articleo=20221111180717853503 2026-05-13T14:05:09.793Z https://www.daeryunlaw.com/en/broadcast/132 At drinking parties, it is easy for drunken people to get into petty fights or fights, and you can often see people who get carried away by their emotions and resort to violence. Caution is required as such violent incidents may be classified as special assault or special injury crimes depending on the specific details. First of all, special assault is a crime of committing assault by showing the force of a group or group or by carrying a dangerous object, and is subject to a statutory penalty of up to 5 years in prison or a fine of up to 10 million won. Unlike general assault, it is not a crime of involuntary punishment, so even if an agreement is reached with the victim, the criminal proceedings proceed as is, making it difficult to avoid punishment. Special injury is a crime that is committed when a person carries a dangerous object or shows the power of a group or group to cause injury. The basic level of punishment is very high, as it is prescribed to be imprisonment for not less than 1 year but not more than 10 years. Even if it is an everyday object, if the other person or a third party feels that the life or body is in danger or causes harm to the body, it constitutes special assault or special injury, so you should refrain from throwing objects lying on the table, such as drinking glasses or bottles. Glasses, bottles, tongs, scissors, etc., which are commonly seen in restaurants and bars, are also used in a way to threaten people. Even if you are not hit directly, a special assault can be committed. Therefore, you must be very careful not to act accidentally while drinking, where your rational judgment is likely to be paralyzed. If special assault is applied, it is impossible to resolve the problem through agreement alone, and even if it is your first offense, there is a high risk of being sentenced to prison, and in some cases, the punishment may be significantly increased, so you must carefully consider the seriousness of the case. Attorney Kim Young-heum, a former chief prosecutor at the law firm Daeryun, said, “If you are accused of special assault or injury, do not think about minor problems that occurred while drinking. He advised, "You must carefully check the facts to avoid being punished for unfair charges. Therefore, you must seek legal assistance from a criminal lawyer to respond." 2026-05-13T12:58:34.078Z https://www.daeryunlaw.com/en/broadcast/131 Daeryun Law Firm opens its Gangnam office in Seoul and its Pyeongtaek office in Gyeonggi Province to strengthen its legal service capabilities nationwide.

An official from Daeryun Law Firm said, “We expect that accessibility will be greatly improved by opening additional law firms in the Seongnam and Pyeongtaek regions.” “Three or more members have formed a dedicated team to provide the same high-quality legal services anywhere in the country, and this collaboration system will also be applied to the Seongnam and Pyeongtaek offices that will be opened this time.” See full text of article - https://www.sisamagazine.co.kr/news/articleView.html?idxno=470294 2026-04-26T16:51:31.571Z https://www.daeryunlaw.com/en/broadcast/129 Recently, as drunk driving traffic accidents causing great controversy have occurred frequently across the country, including in Incheon and Daejeon, voices are growing that the punishment for drunk driving should be strengthened. Drunk driving refers to the act of driving while drinking and having a blood alcohol concentration of 0.03% or higher, making it impossible to think or make judgments. Drunk driving inevitably increases the risk of traffic accidents, and the scale and severity of damage from accidents is also significant. It is an action that threatens not only the life of the driver but also the lives of many on the road, and if it leads to an accident, it can lead to irreversible consequences. Unlike general traffic accidents, if an accident is caused by drunk driving, it is difficult to avoid punishment regardless of whether there is an agreement or whether or not the driver is insured. In general traffic accidents, there are disputes over issues such as the percentage of fault, calculation of insurance premiums, and payment of compensation, but since a drunk driving traffic accident is an accident that falls under the 12 counts of gross negligence, it does not fall under the crime of misjudgment, so even if an agreement is reached with the victim, criminal punishment is inevitable. If a car accident occurs while drunk driving, it falls under the 12 counts of gross negligence under the Traffic Accidents Act and is indicted, followed by a trial, and punished according to the level of the crime. A drunk driving accident can result in a prison sentence of up to 5 years or a fine of up to 20 million won. In addition, if you commit a hit and run by leaving the scene without taking appropriate measures out of fear of punishment for drunk driving, you may be considered to have violated the so-called Special Act, which is a law on aggravated punishment for specific crimes, and may be subject to aggravated punishment. If a drunk driving traffic accident is caused, there are limits to how the general public can respond directly, and the on-site situation at the time of the accident must be thoroughly analyzed and responded to. Since a strategy must be prepared, it is necessary to appoint a professional lawyer with extensive case experience from the beginning to secure the sentencing elements as much as possible.

In fact, according to the National Police Agency, the number of 112 reports of elder abuse in the first half of this year was calculated to be 5,958. This figure is already half of last year's 11,918 cases. As we approach a super-aging society, the elderly population is increasing day by day, but elder abuse is not decreasing and is emerging as a serious problem. Accordingly, in Korea, specialized institutions for the protection of the elderly are being operated throughout the country, including in Seoul, Incheon, Suwon, and Ulsan, and there are also regions that have established separate shelters exclusively for the elderly who have suffered abuse. Most problems of elder abuse such as this occur within homes or welfare facilities. It is the government's responsibility to care for and protect the elderly, who are socially vulnerable, but because it is primarily the responsibility of children at home and workers at welfare facilities, abuse problems often occur when this is not properly carried out. Elder abuse refers to physical, mental, emotional, sexual violence, economic exploitation or harsh treatment, or abandonment or neglect of the elderly. This is stipulated in Article 1-2 of the Elderly Welfare Act, and those who commit abuse are punished. In any case, detaining or abusing another person's body without reasonable cause should be punished, but it is rare for elder abuse within the home to lead to punishment due to the special nature of it being between family members. Criminal charges entail punishment, but parents withdraw the charges because they do not want their children to be punished. In some cases, punishment may not be possible if there is an agreement. However, the case is different when it comes to elder abuse by workers at welfare facilities. If an employee of a facility such as a senior welfare facility violates a prohibited act under the Senior Welfare Act, he/she is subject to aggravated punishment, and if a corporation neglects its duty of careful supervision to prevent violations, dual punishment provisions can be applied. Acts of using money or valuables donated or paid for the elderly for purposes other than the intended purpose are punishable by imprisonment for up to 3 years or a fine of up to 30 million won, and other illegal acts are punishable by imprisonment of up to 5 years or a fine not exceeding 50 million won. Since the acts subject to punishment for elder abuse are clearly defined, and the acts subject to employment restriction orders are limited, if you are unfairly at risk of punishment for an incident related to elder abuse, it is important to seek legal assistance from a criminal lawyer and clearly demonstrate that your actions do not constitute elder abuse.

The special committee said in a press release that day, "In order to realize a society without discrimination through integrated support tailored to the disabled, we are promoting the strengthening of mobility rights for the disabled, such as mandatory replacement of low-floor buses when replacing or scrapping city buses," and added, "Although guaranteeing the convenience of transportation is an essential element for community independence, many people with disabilities still experience inconvenience in using transportation." In response to this need, the National Integration Committee launched its second special committee, the 'Special Committee for the Promotion of Mobility for the Disabled', on this day. The Special Committee for the Promotion of Mobility for the Disabled consists of a total of 10 people, with Visit Seok, a member of the Social and Cultural Subcommittee, as the special committee chair, and is composed of experts and social activists from various fields with expertise and field experience in the field of transportation for the disabled, as well as major organizations that can represent the opinions of the disabled. The members are Maria Gong of Daegu University. Professor of Rehabilitation Psychology, Yang Young-hee, Vice President of the Korean Association for the Human Rights of Persons with Brain Lesions and Disabilities, Oh Ji-young, a social worker at the Seoul Cerebral Palsy Welfare Center, Lee Yeon-joo, Secretary General of the Korea Federation of the Blind, Lee Chan-woo, Policy Committee Chair of the Korea Spinal Cord Disabled Association, Choi Bo-yoon, lawyer at Daeryun Law Firm (Limited), Han Ji-ah, expert member of the Healthy Aging Consortium at WHO Headquarters, Hong Yoon-hee, Chairman of the Cooperative ‘Muui’, Hong Hyeon-geun, Korea Association for the Physically Disabled He was the Secretary-General. Afterwards, the special committee plans to re-examine problems and solutions from the perspective of policy demanders, rather than from a provider-centered perspective, and carefully examine mobility difficulties experienced depending on the type or degree of disability. In a press release, the special committee said, "We will seek solutions to create an environment for seamless movement, such as linking transportation networks within and between regions, alleviating the gap in transportation convenience between regions, and providing customized information." He added, "In addition to expanding physical infrastructure such as transportation and passenger facilities, this infrastructure will be “We will seek ways to spread a disability-friendly culture in our society so that it can be utilized,” he said. Lastly, he also announced that he would look for roles that the special committee can play, such as inter-ministerial linkages, to ensure that the government’s mid- to long-term plans related to improving mobility for the disabled are well implemented.

He was sentenced to 1 year and 6 months in prison in the original trial, but was found not guilty by the appellate court ruling that it is difficult to say that he participated in the crime even though he knew it was a voice phishing organization. Recently, there has been a sharp increase in the number of cases in which he was sent to work thinking it was a high-paying part-time job or for a loan company, but then became involved in the role of a voice phishing cash collector. This is because, amidst the worsening economy, vicious voice phishing crimes targeting young people, newbies, housewives, etc. who are struggling financially are gaining ground. Under the criminal law, if you participate in a voice phishing crime and are charged with fraud, you can be sentenced to up to 10 years in prison or a fine of up to 20 million won. In particular, in the case of voice phishing crimes, not only simple participants but also attempted criminals can be punished. Therefore, if you are tricked and arrested while acting as a withdrawal or collection agent without knowing that it is a crime, you will be charged with aiding and abetting fraud or fraud. You may be charged with aiding and abetting fraud and subject to voice phishing punishment just by participating in a part of the overall incident, rather than being the leader of the crime. Therefore, if you are unfairly accused of fraud through voice phishing, you cannot just plead that you did it to earn pocket money, but you are simply being used by a voice phishing gang member to commit a crime. It must be emphasized that the work was done without any awareness that it was illegal. However, even if you did not know exactly that what you were doing was a voice phishing crime, you can be guilty of aiding and abetting fraud if only intentional negligence is acknowledged, so you must be careful in your defense in that regard. Voice phishing, a vicious crime that puts ordinary people in trouble, is evolving as its means and methods become more sophisticated. Special caution is needed as ordinary people living in difficult times are being used as tools for crimes, turning completely unrelated good people into voice phishing participants in an instant. Attorney Kim In-won, a former chief prosecutor at Daeryun Law Firm, said, “Even if you didn’t know it was voice phishing, if you can’t prove it in detail, you could end up in an unfortunate situation where you are punished.” “I recommend that you prepare,” he advised.

Accordingly, the number of cases of legal conflicts regarding the distribution of property between co-heirs is also increasing. If you look at the Supreme Court Judicial Yearbook, you can see that inheritance-related lawsuits have nearly doubled in the past five years. If the division of property has been too unfair, you can consider filing a lawsuit to claim the return of retained assets. The reserved portion is a certain portion of the inherited property that cannot be disposed of at will by the person receiving the inheritance and must be left behind by law for a certain heir. The reserved portion stipulated in the Civil Act is 1/2 of the statutory inheritance for the deceased's direct descendants, 1/3 of the statutory inheritance for the deceased's lineal ascendants, and 1/3 of the statutory inheritance for the deceased's siblings, and the reserved portion for the legally married spouse who has completed the marriage registration. It corresponds to 1/2 of the statutory inheritance. In addition to property received through division of inherited property, the reserved portion also includes gifts made in the year before the start of inheritance and gifts that qualify as special profits even after one year has passed. Before proceeding with a lawsuit, you must check in detail the scope of the reserve portion and the statute of limitations and then proceed quickly. Attorney Park Yong-du of Daeryun Law Firm said, “Even if you have already received an inheritance, if it falls short of the reserve portion, you can request a return of the insufficient reserve portion.” “However, inheritance lawsuits are strict on the statute of limitations, so if you file a lawsuit after the statute of limitations expires, it is likely to be dismissed, so you must prepare a lawsuit as soon as you learn of the existence of the reserve portion.” He added, “If the division of inherited property was made through an illegal method other than a bequest or gift, there are cases where the entire statutory inheritance, not the reserved portion, may be returned. To avoid property damage due to ignorance of these facts, you should prepare to regain as many rights as possible with the help of experts such as inheritance lawyers.

Daeryun Law Firm's Criminal and Sexual Crimes Specialization Center announced on the 15th that it has hired representative attorney Kim Young-heum (photo, 14th class of the Judicial Research and Training Institute), a former chief prosecutor at the Seoul Western District Prosecutors' Office. Attorney Kim was appointed as a prosecutor at the Seoul Southern District Prosecutors' Office, and served as chief prosecutor at the Seoul Western District Prosecutors' Office and chief prosecutor at the Uijeongbu District Prosecutors' Office.

Divorce between couples who have been married for more than 20 years is called twilight divorce, and its proportion has steadily increased, reaching 38.7% of all divorces last year, according to data from the National Statistical Office. This means that 4 out of 10 divorced couples divorced at dusk. With the changes of the times, women's economic status has increased, life expectancy has increased, and the social atmosphere that regards divorce as a natural personal choice has contributed to the increase in divorce at twilight. Looking at cases that generally lead to divorce at twilight, there are many cases where the wife endures the husband's one-sided interference, nagging, and control, then explodes and decides to divorce, and the husband chooses freedom because he does not like his wife's nagging or financial demands. There are quite a few cases. If alimony, custody, and child support are issues in the divorce of a typical young couple, division of property is the biggest issue in twilight divorce. In principle, assets subject to division are all property that the couple has accumulated through their cooperation during marriage. This includes not only deposits, savings, real estate, and stocks, but also future income such as property, retirement funds, and pensions. However, in principle, ‘unique property’ owned by the spouse before marriage or inherited or gifted is excluded from division. The standard for determining the division ratio is determined by the degree of contribution to the growth and maintenance of the property, so even a housewife who did not have a job or economic activity can be recognized for contributing to the maintenance and growth of the property. If you support the other spouse while taking full responsibility for housework and childcare, half of it becomes your share. Division of property in the event of a divorce at twilight is an issue that inevitably leads to sharp conflict because the quality of life in retirement is determined by the results, and as people get older, property is directly related to the issue of livelihood itself or economic independence. The contribution to division of property may vary depending on the duration of the marriage, whether there are unique assets, etc., so in order to receive a fair share, contact a twilight divorce lawyer. You must obtain assistance to determine the exact situation and actively utilize legal evidence methods, such as inquiry or tracking of property in the name of the party either ex officio or upon application.

There is a tendency to regard school violence as simply an incident that can occur between young students, but this is a big miscalculation. ‘School violence’ as defined in the Act on Prevention and Measures of School Violence refers to any act that causes damage to a student’s body, mind, or property inside or outside of school. Even if there is no direct assault, it includes verbal violence and subtle bullying. The forms of school violence are very diverse, including injury, assault, confinement, threats, kidnapping, enticement, defamation, insults, blackmail, coercion, forced errands, sexual violence, bullying, cyber bullying, and dissemination of obscene and violent information using information and communication networks. Among them, verbal violence is the most common. In fact, according to the 1st school violence survey for 2021 recently announced by the Ministry of Education, 'verbal violence' was found to be the largest type of violence at 41.7%. Such incidents of school violence have a significant impact on both victims and perpetrators, and in the case of perpetrators in particular, it is an issue that can have a huge impact on the future due to life records, celebrities, etc., so it must be handled carefully. However, more than half of the cases received for deliberation cannot be resolved by the school principal himself. Despite the situation, a school violence committee is being held as parents do not agree to resolve the issue themselves, and the scope of recognition for school violence is gradually broadening and the level of punishment is becoming more severe. In fact, due to public opinion that negatively views school violence and demands strong punishment, measures are taken even for non-violent verbal violence cases. In addition, even if you request a retrial after the results of the school violence committee are decided, the citation rate is low, so an early response is very important. Moreover, since children over the age of 14 are subject to criminal punishment and can even file a criminal complaint, it is necessary to seek legal assistance from a school violence lawyer so that they can attend the school violence committee as a representative.

There are many cases where people get behind the wheel thinking that they are not drunk, and there are many cases where they are caught driving while intoxicated due to impaired judgment. According to the Road Traffic Act, driving is prohibited if the driver's blood alcohol concentration is 0.03% or more. This is because driving while intoxicated reduces judgment and motor skills, increasing the possibility of a traffic accident in the event of an unexpected situation. Drunk driving is one of the 12 gross negligence offenses and is subject to criminal punishment, including imprisonment and fines, regardless of whether or not you have insurance. In addition to criminal liability, in the event of an accident, the driver is subject to civil liability, such as increased insurance premiums and imposition of deductibles, as well as administrative liability, such as imposition of penalty points and suspension or revocation of driver's license. In particular, if you have been caught for drunk driving once, if you are caught for drunk driving again, you will face aggravated punishment, making it difficult to avoid imprisonment. Among the punishments for drunk drivers called the Yoon Chang-ho Act, the provision of aggravated punishment more than twice was ruled unconstitutional, but if you look at the sentencing standards set by the Sentencing Committee, aggravating factors are still applied to repeat offenders. In fact, one client who was punished for drunk driving in the past was caught driving his car while drunk with a blood alcohol concentration of 0.169% on a 100m section of the road, and has already been indicted in the past. Because he had a history of being fined for drunk driving, he was at risk of imprisonment. This is an act that violates Article 44, Paragraph 1 or 2 of the Road Traffic Act. We sincerely appeal to you to take into account the fact that the client admits and reflects on the crime in this case, the fact that the client did not cause additional damage such as a traffic accident due to drunk driving in this case, the circumstances leading to the drunk driving, the client's blood alcohol level at the time, the distance of drunk driving, age, behavior, environment, motive for the crime, and the circumstances after the crime. Despite being caught twice, he escaped imprisonment. The court accepted the grounds for sentencing and sentenced him to one year in prison and two years of probation. He was also ordered to take 40 hours of law-abiding driving classes. Although it was difficult to avoid a prison sentence due to a history of drunk driving, I was able to obtain a suspended sentence with the help of a criminal lawyer. In this way, if you are in a situation where you are at risk of aggravated punishment due to a history of drunk driving, it may be necessary to respond together with the assistance of a criminal lawyer from the beginning of the investigation, rather than responding alone. Written by: Daeryun Law Firm Chanwoo Jeong View full text of lawyer's article - http://www.jeonmin.co.kr/news/articleView.html?idxno=361551 2026-05-09T16:35:03.010Z https://www.daeryunlaw.com/en/broadcast/118 [Media Fine Current Affairs Column] According to data recently released by Statistics Korea, the number of divorces last year was 102,000. Looking at the composition of divorce by marriage duration, the divorce rate for marriage duration of 0 to 4 years was 18.8%, for marriage duration of 30 years or more was 17.6%, and for marriage duration of 5 to 9 years, it was 17.1%. Divorce in marriages lasting more than 30 years is on the rise. Among them, divorce by agreement is 86,000 cases and divorce by trial is 28,000 cases. This means that there are too many divorces through litigation that cannot be ignored, and this is because there has been no agreement on important aspects such as property division. One of the important issues in divorce litigation is property division. The couple owns assets such as real estate, including funds raised jointly during marriage. This division of property is called property division, and after divorce, one couple has the right to claim property division from the other party for division of jointly accumulated property. Since property division is the liquidation of common property formed through the cooperation of both parties during marriage, one couple can make a claim to the other party regardless of whether they are responsible for the divorce. In addition, the court also recognizes property division claims by spouses in a common-law relationship when a common-law marriage is broken up, and by spouses in a marital relationship when a marriage is annulled. However, the period during which the right to claim property division can be exercised is determined by law. The right to claim property division lapses after two years from the date of divorce, and in the case of a judicial divorce, it is common for a property division claim to be filed together with a divorce claim, so there is little concern about the exercise period elapsed. Problems can arise in cases where a divorce by agreement is filed after only hearing that property division will be done. In fact, one client was told by her husband, 'If you go to trial, it will cost more money and costs. After hearing the words, 'I will cooperate with the division of property, let's get a divorce by agreement,' we divorced without settling the issue of property. However, the husband avoided contact with the client, making various excuses, and eventually exercised his right to claim property division. Assets subject to property division include deposits, savings, real estate, retirement funds, and pensions. Since property contribution is judged based on the extent to which a person contributed to increasing and maintaining property after marriage, the more contribution is recognized, the more advantageous it is in a property division claim lawsuit. Therefore, for successful property division, it is important to receive advice from a divorce lawyer and systematically prepare materials that can prove one's contribution. Also, as in the case above, if you believe in property division and divorce by agreement, but the other party does not keep the agreement, and if you need to file a property division claim again, it is a good idea to ask for help from an expert.

Since last June, the number of child abuse victims has been rapidly increasing every year. According to a report published by the Ministry of Health and Welfare, the number of child abuse cases increased significantly from 11,715 cases in 2015 to 22,367 cases in 2017 and 30,049 cases in 2019. As of 2019 alone, more than 80 children were victims of violence per day. Among the 30,000 cases of child abuse that occurred in 2019, 75.6% (22,700 cases) of abusers were parents. They were followed by surrogate caregivers and relatives, and only 2.2% (663 cases) were non-family members. Like this, child abuse often occurs in families, and it leads to greater damage because the perpetrator and victim live together. Experts analyzed that the incidence of child abuse is also increasing significantly as the number of families spending time together at home has increased as telecommuting and non-face-to-face classes have become established since the COVID-19 incident. Jae-guk Shim, attorney at Daeryun Law Firm, said, “As social issues regarding child abuse continue to be raised, the standards for punishing child abuse have been significantly strengthened. Last March, the Supreme Court Sentencing Committee He explained, “We have finally passed an amendment to significantly increase the sentencing standards for child abuse crimes, and this amendment has been in effect since last June.” He continued, “According to this, the sentencing standards for child abuse and death under the Child Abuse Punishment Act have been strengthened, and the existing sentencing standard of 4 to 7 years has been raised to the upper limit of 4 to 8 years, and the aggravation range applied when the crime is serious has been raised from 6 to 10 years to 7 to 15 years. In addition, the recommendation range for imprisonment for child abuse and murder under the Child Abuse Punishment Act, child sexual abuse and child trafficking under the Child Welfare Act, which were not in the existing sentencing standards, was also added. Attorney Shim Jae-guk said, “If the prosecutor determines that it is a minor case and deems it appropriate to impose protective measures instead of punishment, the case can be transferred to the family court and handled as a child protection case. Therefore, if you are involved in a child abuse case, it is necessary to resolve it with the help of a criminal lawyer.” Reported.

Among all criminal crimes such as murder, robbery, assault, and theft, sexual violence crimes, including rape, were only 40.2% in 2010, but rose significantly to 58.1% in 2020. In addition, according to the quarterly crime trend report of the Korea Institute of Criminology and Legal Policy, among the 417,238 total crimes that occurred in the fourth quarter of last year, the number of sexual violence crimes was 10,797. This is a 35.1% increase compared to the same period last year (7,992 cases). The cause of sexual crimes on the rise can be traced to social changes in coming-of-age ceremonies. This is thanks to the fact that more crimes are being reported and dealt with that may have been buried in the past. Accordingly, punishment for sexual crimes is becoming very strict. Sexual crimes refer to mental, verbal, and physical violence that violates an individual's sexual autonomy. It is an act of violence that forces the other person to perform a sexual act without their consent. It includes not only forced kissing, hugging, or sexual intercourse, but also obscene phone calls or open obscene remarks. There are various types. It is divided into rape, quasi-rape, forcible molestation, quasi-rape and quasi-forcible molestation, rape and other injuries or death, adultery against minors, etc., and aggravated rape. Rape is the act of raping a person through assault or intimidation and is punishable by imprisonment for a limited period of three years or more. Rape is punished by combining the genitals with the genitals, but pseudo-rape is an act of inserting the genitals inside the body other than the genitals, such as the mouth or anus, or inserting a body part or tool into the genitals or anus. This is punishable by imprisonment for a fixed term of two years or more. In addition, forcible molestation is a person who commits molestation against another person through violence or threats, and is punishable by imprisonment for not more than 10 years or a fine of not more than 15 million won. In addition to typical sexual violence crimes, crimes such as molestation in crowded public places and filming using cameras are also constant problems. Anyone who molests another person in public transportation, performance or assembly venues, or other crowded public places is subject to imprisonment for not more than one year or a fine not exceeding 3 million won. Any person who photographs another person's body against his or her will using a camera or other mechanical device with a similar function, or who distributes, sells, rents, provides, exhibits or screens the photographed material, shall be punished by imprisonment for not more than 5 years or by a fine of not more than 10 million won. In particular, in the case of filming using a camera, etc., even if the filming does not go against the will of the subject at the time of filming, if the photographed material is distributed, sold, rented, provided, or publicly displayed or screened against the will of the person being photographed after the fact, the person shall be punished by imprisonment for not more than 3 years or You may be subject to a fine of up to 5 million won. The results of punishment for such sex crimes may vary depending on how you respond. In fact, in the case of sexual crimes, the victim's statement plays a significant role, so the specific circumstances of the case must be analyzed and diagnosed and the case must be responded to based on this. Accordingly, it is important to respond to the case with the assistance of a criminal lawyer. Article: Attorney Shim Jae-guk of Daeryun Law Firm View full article - http://www.jeonmin.co.kr/news/articleView.html?idxno=360467 2026-05-01T17:31:24.769Z https://www.daeryunlaw.com/en/broadcast/114 [Media Fine Current Affairs Column] Although the COVID-19 epidemic is clearly decreasing, the number of people complaining of economic difficulties has increased significantly over the past two years as the economic recession has been prolonged due to COVID-19. All industries, including the self-employed, are expressing difficulties due to rising prices due not only to COVID-19 but also to war. In particular, in the aftermath of a sharp increase in interest rates, borrowers who took out loans at high interest rates are repeating a vicious cycle of increasing debt due to interest rates that are difficult to afford. If you are in a situation where everyday life is difficult due to unmanageable debt, you can consider the 'personal rehabilitation' system. Personal rehabilitation is a system in which the court forcibly reorganizes debt to relieve people suffering from debt. A person who is likely to earn income continuously or repeatedly in the future can be exempted from the remaining debt if he or she repays a certain amount for 3 to 5 years. If he or she is likely to earn income continuously or repeatedly in the future, he or she is eligible to apply for personal rehabilitation. After applying for personal rehabilitation, an individual debtor can be exempted from all debts on the remaining principal and interest by repaying the amount adjusted by the court within a certain period of time. If you apply for personal rehabilitation and are approved, collection activities such as visits, phone calls, and text messages from creditors are legally prohibited, so you can escape the threats to your daily life. Since all payment orders can be blocked, the parties involved can continue their daily lives and economic activities. However, not everyone can apply for personal rehabilitation. You must meet the qualifications to apply for personal rehabilitation, but first, you must have regular monthly income. Regardless of employment type (daily worker, freelancer, part-time job, rental business, etc.) and whether or not you are subscribed to the four major insurances, you must earn more than your living expenses every month. Debt must be more than 10 million won and less than 2.5 billion won. Also, you must have more debt than all your assets combined. All assets in the name of the debtor, including real estate, rental deposits, tangible assets, severance pay, bonds, deposits, and insurance cancellation refunds, are considered property, and personal rehabilitation can only be applied if debts exceed these assets. If you are eligible to apply for personal rehabilitation, you must carefully prepare the documents required by the court. A detailed repayment plan must be prepared, including a list of personal rehabilitation creditors, a list of assets, and a detailed list of the debtor's income and expenses. If the personal rehabilitation application documents are complicated and the repayment plan is not specific, the progress of personal rehabilitation may be delayed, so it may be necessary to ask for help from a professional attorney.

As gap investment began to emerge in earnest in 2013, it has received attention as it allows people to buy their own home or invest in real estate with relatively little money. However, recently, the mother of three mother-daughter gap investment fraud cases was arrested and handed over to trial. If many people are only interested in market gains and invest hastily without knowing the risks, they can soon become suspects on fraud charges. Gap investment is an investment method of purchasing a house with a small difference between the sale price and the deposit for the purpose of making capital gains. For example, if the jeonse price for a house worth 600 million won is 550 million won, you can buy the house for 50 million won with the jeonse included. Although you can make a big profit from market gains, there is no guarantee that the market price will rise, so if you fail to return the deposit to the tenant, you are likely to be punished for gap investment fraud. If a person is found guilty of fraud and is punished, he or she will be subject to imprisonment for up to 10 years or a fine of up to 20 million won. However, in the case of fraud related to gap investment, there are many cases where dozens of people are harmed, and most damages exceed hundreds of millions. Therefore, the Act on the Aggravated Punishment of Specific Economic Crimes, not the Criminal Act, is applied, resulting in a more severe punishment. If the profits obtained through fraud are more than 500 million won but less than 5 billion won, a prison sentence of more than 3 years will be imposed, and if the amount of damage exceeds 5 billion won, the person will be sentenced to more than 5 years to a maximum of life imprisonment. However, there may be some unfairness from the suspect's perspective as well. If it is said that there was a malicious intention to cause damage through fraud from the beginning, this should naturally be severely punished, but if it is said that the deposit was not returned due to unintentional investment failure or difficult circumstances, it may be unfair to receive legal action. In order to escape criminal disposition, you must prove that you had the will and ability to fulfill your obligations when entering into a contract. In other words, if he had the economic power and means to cover the money, he did not intend to deceive others or gain financial gain. Therefore, it must be argued that there was no intention to steal the tenant's money at the time, and that it was unintentionally unable to return it due to the decline in market prices. If you are unintentionally but unfairly accused and are at risk of being punished for gap investment fraud, you may need to seek help from a criminal lawyer who can provide a legal perspective and a valid defense.

A stepfather who committed sexual crimes against his middle school-aged stepdaughter and her friend and drove the children to their deaths. AAfter the appeal judgment for Mr. 9was at work.

At the time, the court ruled that it was sexual harassment against the stepdaughter., Bsexual assault on sheep, Although he admitted to the charge of sexual harassment, he was found not guilty on the charge of sexually assaulting his stepdaughter, saying there was no evidence to support it.. However, the appellate court on this day AHe also pleaded guilty to sexually assaulting his stepdaughter and was sentenced to prison. 25Sentenced to one year in prison.▷Yeon Hyeon-cheol : 5The prison sentence has been increased by more than 1 year.. you're right. As one of the reporters who covered this incident, I was heartbroken.. Could you tell us about the atmosphere of the court at the time??▶Jayoung Yoon : The court explains the reasons for its decision AHe abdicated his duty to raise the victim in a healthy manner., The relationship between the defendant and the victim who allegedly committed rape, Looking at the method of the crime, he said that the crime was extremely serious and serious, and that the defendant denied the crime during the investigation process, causing even more severe mental pain to the victims. He also said that this was the main reason why the victims could no longer endure the given reality and made extreme choices together..

Additionally, the victim's family continues to support the case while the trial is underway. AI made a tearful appeal for him to be sentenced to life imprisonment.. Regarding the verdict in this case, he said that the sentence was somewhat disappointing, but he also expressed his gratitude to the court for recognizing the truth in that all charges were acknowledged..▷Yeon Hyeon-cheol : It is not the life sentence originally requested by the bereaved family., Still, it appears that the opinions of the bereaved family were reflected as much as possible in the trial results.. We will do our best to ensure that such an unfortunate incident never happens again.. Let's move on to the next incident.. The story states that a man serving time in prison was sentenced to prison for assaulting an inmate..

Cheongju District Court Aimprisonment for Mr. 3Sentenced to months. ▷Yeon Hyeon-cheol : So, it seems like it was just a simple assault case.. It is somewhat unusual that a prison sentence was even imposed.. There is a story that the fact that the location of the assault was inside a prison played a role.. ▶Jayoung Yoon : yes. In explaining the reason for the ruling, the court stated that it was inevitable that he would be severely punished for using violence in a place where there was supposed to be time for reflection.. The fact that the assault occurred inside the prison, It appears that the reason for the sentencing is that he committed another assault while serving time for another crime..▷Yeon Hyeon-cheol : Attorney, are the correctional authorities conducting investigations into incidents that occurred within the prison??▶Jayoung Yoon : Go back to the investigative agency, The investigative agency will proceed with the same investigation procedures..▷Yeon Hyeon-cheol : okay. Let's look at the last incident.. You probably know about the case where a current police officer was caught installing an illegal camera in the bathroom of the district college.. The prosecution recently handed down a sentence. Please tell me.▶Jayoung Yoon : AMr. last year 11A district unit under the Cheongwon Police Station in Cheongju, North Chungcheong Province, where he has been working since mid-May. 2He was sent to trial on charges of illegally filming and forcibly molesting a fellow female police officer after installing a hidden camera in the unisex restroom on the first floor.. Accordingly, the prosecution 7At the trial on the same day, he was arrested and indicted on charges of forcible harassment and violation of the Special Act on the Punishment of Sexual Crimes. Aimprisonment for Mr. 5I asked for a year. The prosecution said that the crime was serious for forgetting its duty as a police officer to protect the public from crime and committing forcible harassment and camera filming against a junior police officer, and the victim is pleading for severe punishment due to extreme damage.. The reason for the sentence was stated to take into account the fact that the defendant partially denies the crime.. AIt is a so-called body camera used to collect evidence and prevent accidents.. I bought a body camera with my own money., It is known that the crime was committed. Furthermore, last year 12When the body camera was discovered by a fellow female police officer in February. AHe confessed the crime the next day, and during the investigation, he was also accused of sexually harassing the female police officer..▷Yeon Hyeon-cheol : okay. Even though I committed a hidden camera crime because of my status as a police officer, 5It appears that a sentence of one year in prison has been handed down.. There is an uproar in the region because the prosecution requested a heavy sentence.. In the case of illegal filming, they also explain the severity of the punishment..▶Jayoung Yoon : yes.

In this case, the police officer was charged with illegal filming and forcible harassment., It appears that the two crimes were taken into consideration and a heavy sentence was imposed.. ▷Yeon Hyeon-cheol : A hidden camera crime is a case of filming even if it is not a major part of the body., Likewise, it seems to be separate from infringement on portrait rights.. Could you explain it a little bit more easily??▶Jayoung Yoon : As mentioned earlier, in accordance with the Punishment Act for Sexual Violence, in the case of illegal filming, the body of a person that may cause sexual desire or shame is taken against the subject's will., If taken without permission 7Imprisonment of up to one year or 5It is stipulated that a fine not exceeding 10 million won shall be imposed.. What I can say here is that if the object is a person's body that can cause sexual desire or shame,, I think it can be viewed in a different sense from portrait rights..▷Yeon Hyeon-cheol : All right.

In a statement released on the 19th through her legal representative, Daeryun Law Firm, Victim A said, "I suffered school violence from Kim Garam and her friends around late April to early May 2018, and after that, I could not endure the continued group violence, so I moved to another school. Mr. A said, "As a result of the autonomous school violence committee held on June 4, 2018, Garam Kim, a student who committed school violence, was ordered to complete 6 hours of special education and 5 hours of special education for parents." Regarding the veracity of the "autonomous school violence committee result notice" recently released in an online community, Mr. A said, "The contents are consistent with the result notification submitted by Mr. A." It states that the measures taken under Articles 16 and 17 of the 'School Violence Prevention and Countermeasures Act' are notified, and the perpetrator is listed as 'Kim Garam, Grade 1, Class 3,' and opinions are divided as to its authenticity. Mr. A's side complained that he has been receiving malicious criticism and threats since the suspicion of Kim Garam's school violence arose. Mr. A's side said, "People who do not know are 'maliciously slandering' and 'out of jealousy.' He claimed, "He received malicious criticism for 'slandering' and some of the posts even threatened him by publishing A's photo." After his agency, Source Music, denied the allegations, saying, "This is a matter of cleverly edited and maliciously slandering," regarding the suspicion of involvement in school violence, Mr. A's side said that the secondary perpetrators became more severe. Mr. A's side said, "We filed a complaint with the Guro Police Station in Seoul against people who made false comments to the effect that Mr. A wrote an expose about Kim Garam." He stated, "We submitted the victim's statement to Hive as proof of contents." He added, "We did not ask for any compensation (from Hive), and urged Hive to delete the statement that was different from the facts and to express a position based on the facts again, but Hive did not respond." Mr. He said, "The victims and their guardians desperately want to stop secondary assaults," and warned, "If Hive maintains its existing position without a true apology, we are considering making public the full report of the results of the Autonomous School Violence Countermeasures Committee." Mr. A's side said, "Hive and its affiliate Source Music must be very careful to prevent secondary assaults," and added, "For young students, the experience of group harassment is deep in their hearts." He emphasized, “We must strictly recognize that it remains as a scar and cannot be reversed by any compensation or treatment.” See full text of the article - https://www.yna.co.kr/view/AKR20220519150500005?input=1195m 2026-05-01T20:17:13.557Z https://www.daeryunlaw.com/en/broadcast/107 The number of teenagers who have been victims of digital sex crimes has increased more than tenfold in the past three years. According to the Digital Sex Crime Victim Support Center, the number of victims of digital sex crimes, which was 1,315 in 2018, increased 3.7 times in three years to 2,087 in 2019 and 4,937 in 2020. Among them, the number of teenage victims classified as children and adolescents increased 10.8 times in three years, and the proportion of teenagers among all age groups increased 2.8 times. increased. There was a significant increase, with figures such as 111 people (8.4%) in 2018, 321 people (15.4%) in 2019, and 1,204 people (24.2%) in 2020. These digital sex crimes refer to sex crimes that occur online and offline through digital devices and information and communication technology. It includes all acts that violate the sexual autonomy and personality rights of others in cyberspace, including filming, distributing, storing, and displaying another person's body without consent. The N Room incident, which caused social outrage, also constitutes a digital sex crime. The scope of digital sex crimes includes pornography for children and adolescents, including those filmed through threats, coercion, grooming, etc., illegal recordings using modified cameras, synthetic edits (deepfakes), etc. The punishment for digital sex crimes is by no means light. In the case of illegal filming, pursuant to Article 14, Paragraph 1 of the Special Act on the Punishment of Sexual Crimes, etc., a person may be subject to imprisonment for up to 7 years or a fine of up to 50 million won. Possession, purchase, storage, or viewing of digital sex crime materials may result in imprisonment of up to 3 years or a fine of up to 30 million won. Digital sex crimes against minors, teenagers, are punishable by adults as stipulated in other laws in accordance with the Act on the Protection of Sexual Crimes of Children and Adolescents (Acheong Act). Compared to sex crimes, more severe punishment is imposed. Producing sexually exploitative material targeting minors is punishable by life imprisonment or a fixed term of imprisonment of more than 5 years. Violation of the Sexual Harassment Act is a very serious crime, so there is a high probability that even a first-time offender will be sentenced to prison. This is because only imprisonment without a fine is provided for most sex crimes against minors, and in addition, strong security measures for sex crimes such as registration and disclosure of personal information, disclosure of notices, and employment restrictions are also imposed. Digital sex crimes are crimes that are strictly punished because the offender's criminal awareness is low due to the nature of the crime occurring online and the victim suffers enormous psychological damage. Even though related policies have been revised and laws have been strengthened, digital sex crimes are still prevalent. The damage caused by solicitation laws targeting minors is moving from SNS to the metaverse. If you are approached through the metaverse under the pretext of role-playing or situational play, which leads to online sexual harassment, or if it leads to direct harm offline, you need to respond with the help of a criminal lawyer. (Attorney Jae-guk Shim, Daeryun Law Firm) View article - http://m.mediafine.co.kr/news/articleView.html?idxno=12912 2026-05-01T19:58:23.817Z https://www.daeryunlaw.com/en/broadcast/106 It can be said that most voice phishing suspects are job seekers, including the young and middle-aged. You need to be careful because on internet job search sites, there are advertisements posted by voice phishing organizations for high-paying part-time jobs paying hundreds of thousands of won per day. Criminal organizations approach job seekers who are lured by low-intensity but high-per-day jobs, such as debt collection, real estate agencies, errands, couriers, and office assistants, and then instruct them to participate in crimes by using cash as a collection method to receive money directly from victims, handing over accounts to unidentified people, and withdrawing and transferring money from bank automated machines. There are also cases where personal information is obtained and used for crimes, such as by asking job seekers for credit cards or bank accounts. If you commit a ‘face-to-face extortion’ crime by impersonating a financial institution and meeting the victim in person to receive cash, you can be punished for fraud or aiding and abetting fraud. If you hand over your bankbook or card, you will be punished for violating the Electronic Financial Transactions Act. Currently, banks, together with the Supreme Prosecutors' Office, display advance warnings about voice phishing when making ATM transfers, and limit non-media deposit transactions to 1 million won per person per day to prevent crime. To make a deposit using a bank ATM machine, you must directly enter your name, resident registration number, and mobile phone number. You should be aware that if you make a ‘split transfer’ of 1 million won to a designated account using a bank ATM machine, you may be prosecuted not only for fraud but also for obstruction of business and violation of the Resident Registration Act. If a person is found guilty of fraud, he or she may be punished by imprisonment for up to 10 years or by a fine of up to 20 million won. If he or she is found to be guilty of fraud, he or she can be punished by imprisonment of up to 5 years or by a fine of up to 10 million won. Violation of the Electronic Financial Transactions Act is punishable by imprisonment of up to 5 years or a fine of up to 30 million won. Obstruction of business is punishable by imprisonment for up to 5 years or a fine of up to 15 million won. If you illegally use another person's resident registration number, you may be subject to imprisonment for up to 3 years or a fine of up to 30 million won. Recently, prosecutors are indicting additional charges of obstruction of business by considering the act of making non-media deposits using automated devices as interfering with banking operations. There are also cases that have resulted in convictions in similar cases. However, according to the legal community, the Supreme Court ruled that the crime of ‘obstruction of business by hierarchy’ cannot be applied to fraudsters who transferred cash using other people’s personal information. This is a question of whether obstruction of business is established due to hierarchy. The crime of obstruction of business is a provision that punishes a person who interferes with a person's work by means or force. Although there must be a misconception or misconception about the work of another party to constitute a hierarchy, the Supreme Court appears to have ruled that there is no reason to consider that the use of an ATM machine involves the work of a bank employee. Once you have received and followed the instructions of a voice phishing organization, it may be difficult to avoid punishment. In a voice phishing case where various legal principles can be applied, caution must be exercised because if even the slightest suspicion is found in the circumstances, the intentional omission will be recognized and lead to criminal punishment. If you are wrongfully accused, you will need to thoroughly establish from a legal perspective that it was not intentional. If you have fallen victim to a voice phishing scheme and are in trouble, you may need to ask a criminal lawyer for help.

On the afternoon of the 19th, Eunseo Yoo (pseudonym), who was a victim of school violence by Garam Kim, released a statement through Daeryun Law Firm. Regarding the report on the results of the Autonomous Committee for School Violence Countermeasures, which was previously released through an online community, Eunseo Yoo's side said, "The report on the results of the Autonomous Committee for Countermeasures against School Violence, the authenticity of which is controversial, was not handled by this law firm. “The contents are consistent with the report on the results of the Autonomous School Violence Countermeasures Committee, signed by the principal of Gyeongin Middle School, submitted by the client,” he said. “The victim (pseudonym ‘Yoo Eun-seo’) was subjected to school violence by Kim Garam and his friends around late April to early May 2018. Unable to endure the group bullying that continued thereafter, she transferred to another school within 1 to 2 weeks of the incident. Afterwards, the School Violence Countermeasures Autonomous Committee was held on June 4, 2018, and Kim Garam, the perpetrator of school violence, was in violation of the School Violence Prevention and Countermeasures Act. According to Article 17, Paragraph 1, Item 5, she was required to complete 6 hours of special education, and pursuant to Article 9, Paragraph 9, she was required to complete special education for parents. Yoo Eun-seo, a victim of school violence, received protective measures such as psychological counseling and advice in accordance with Article 16, Paragraph 1, Item 1 of the same Act.” In addition, Yoo Eun-seo’s side said, “Despite the fact that she transferred schools of her own volition because she could not endure the continued group harassment. “I had a hard time even after transferring because I was plagued by malicious rumors that ‘I was forced to transfer because of Yoo Eun-seo’s fault,’” he said. “About four years later, around April 2022, Garam Kim was revealed as a member of Le Seraphim, and friends who knew about the incident at the time contacted Eun-seo Yoo and expressed their anger, saying, ‘How can a perpetrator of school violence become a celebrity!’ He added, "I was very stressed by the thought of having to continue to see the perpetrator living a glamorous life as a celebrity through the mass media." Afterwards, Yoo Eun-seo's legal representative revealed that after a post alleging abuse by Kim Gar-ram, which she did not write, was posted on an online community bulletin board, the victim's real name was revealed through a comment, and she received various malicious messages and even threats through Facebook messages and Twitter posts. In addition, Yoo Eun-seo's legal representative responded to the expression 'malicious harm' in the statement first released by Le Seraphim's agency, Hive, saying, "As Hive's statement above was added, the indiscriminate secondary harm against Eun-seo Yoo became more severe. As a result, Eun-seo Yoo cried and said, 'It will only end when I die,' and refused to go to school. Eun-seo Yoo's guardian sent a letter to Hive to this law firm. Regarding this, we have entrusted the sending of a content certificate to the victim's position and a criminal complaint against comments to the effect that Eunseo Yoo posted an expose about Garam Kim,” he said, adding that a criminal complaint related to this has been filed at the Guro Police Station in Seoul and a content certificate has also been sent to Hive. The content certificate sent to Hive contains the details of the collective harm committed by Garam Kim against Eunseo Yoo, and the current situation suffering from the misunderstanding that Garam Kim was maliciously harmed by Garam Kim. The situation, Yoo Eun-seo's petition, and the report on the results of the Autonomous School Violence Countermeasures Committee were attached. In addition to the proof of contents, Yoo Eun-seo's side said, "We urged you to delete the statement that is different from the facts, to express your position based on the facts again, to express an apology to the victims, and to not express a position that is different from the facts based on the one-sided statements of Garam Kim and his friends in the future." He added, "However, Hive did not respond to this and pretended that nothing had happened." Garam Kim's entertainment activities continued," he said. It was shocking to hear that due to the continued broadcasting activities of Le Seraphim, Eunseo Yoo made an extreme attempt and announced her intention to drop out of school. Next, Eunseo Yoo's side said, "If Hive continues to maintain the position that 'the allegations are malicious slander and Garam Kim is the victim' without a true apology to the victim, this law firm will include a case summary to protect the victim who is a minor. We are also considering disclosing the full report of the results of the Autonomous School Violence Countermeasures Committee, and disclosing the victim's detailed statement about the horrific reality of school violence at the time, which was not included in the case summary, as well as the full text of the message containing profanity aimed at calling the victim to the scene of the group assault," he said. "We hope that Hive and its subsidiary Source Music will pay special attention to this to prevent further secondary assaults." Warned.

There are times when a transaction needs to be canceled due to long-term delays in delivery. This is because the price of imported goods is rising rapidly as the exchange rate has risen more than 5% in the past six weeks since the blockade was imposed. Mr. A purchased Dior J'Adore perfume through Coupang in early April, but did not receive the product even after the two weeks indicated as the delivery period. After waiting for another week, Mr. A contacted Coupang and received a response that the product had cleared import customs and was being delivered domestically. However, after waiting for another week, the product did not arrive, so when Mr. A once again complained to Coupang, this time he was asked to cancel the payment because the product was lost. The reason the company requested cancellation of delivery is because the selling price of perfume has risen sharply in the past month when delivery has been delayed. Mr. A explained, "In early April, it was easy to find products in the 100,000 won range for 100 ml, and I found a place that sold them at the cheapest price and purchased a product in the 80,000 won range." He added, "If you want to buy the same product now, you have to pay 120,000 to 130,000 won." As the seller said, if you cancel the payment and purchase a new product, you have to pay an additional amount of 20,000 to 30,000 won. Myeong Hyun-jun, a lawyer at Daeryun Law Firm, said, "If the merchant does not deliver the goods to the buyer after signing the sales contract, the merchant is responsible for the delay, and the merchant must also be responsible for any extended damages incurred as a result." He then added, “It appears that consumers are having difficulty in compensating for damages because it is such a small amount that it is not realistically easy for them to file a lawsuit.” See full text of the article - https://www.mk.co.kr/news/society/view/2022/05/417356/ 2026-05-11T19:07:20.414Z https://www.daeryunlaw.com/en/broadcast/103 Most drivers lie or refuse to take a breathalyzer test because they are afraid of being criminally punished when they are caught driving under the influence of alcohol. However, the penalty for refusing a breathalyzer test is quite severe, with imprisonment of up to 5 years or a fine of up to 20 million won, so if you make a mistake, you may receive a more severe punishment than if you admit to drunk driving and reflect on it. Drivers must comply with the breathalyzer request, and if they refuse to take a breathalyzer test without any good reason, they will be arrested and punished for refusing a breathalyzer test. Refusal to take a breathalyzer test is not established just because you refuse a police officer's request once. Police officers are required to request a breathalyzer test at least three times at five-minute intervals, and can only be punished for refusing a breathalyzer test when these requests are refused more than three times. Nevertheless, if you refuse a breathalyzer test, if you have a strong will to reflect and there is a need for relief from license revocation or mitigation of punishment, you can seek help from a legal expert. According to criminal lawyer Shim Jae-guk of the Daeryun Law Firm, in fact, not long ago, Mr. A stopped by a store while driving home after drinking. Since the store was close to my house, after running errands, I drove from the store on my own and was subject to a DUI test. Mr. A, who had a record of drunk driving in the past and wanted to avoid the test, was at risk of being punished for refusing a breathalyzer test, so he decided to get help from a criminal lawyer. Daeryun Law Firm said that the client used a designated driver after drinking alcohol with the will not to get behind the wheel while drunk, that the client sent the designated driver away from the store in front of the house, stopped by the store, and drove only the short distance to the house on his own. He had a history of drunk driving in the past, so he reflexively refused the breathalyzer test out of fear of punishment. In fact, he is reflecting on all of these facts, and considering the fact that he has been visiting the Addiction Management Integrated Support Center and providing psychological counseling several times to prevent reoffending, the fact that the livelihood of his dependents is at risk when the defendant is detained, and the fact that the vehicle was disposed of after the accident, he appealed for maximum leniency within the law and was able to receive a suspended sentence. Recently, professional response at each stage of investigation, including the adjustment of investigative powers by the prosecution and police, is becoming more important. Daeryun Law Firm “Drunk driving is of course an action that should not be done, and refusing to be measured is also difficult to avoid punishment, but in unavoidable cases, it may be helpful to seek advice from a criminal lawyer to reduce punishment,” he explained. Criminal lawyer Shim Jae-guk said, “We plan to provide realistic and sharp interpretation of the law through an experienced chief prosecutor, attorneys from former departments, and advisors from police departments.” He continued, “Lawyers from former departments will play the leading roles in the criminal center and its departments.” “We expect that we will be able to further increase our overall business capabilities,” he added. Meanwhile, Daeryun Law Firm operates 21 branches across the country, including Cheongju, Jinju, Chuncheon, Jeonju, and Cheonan.

Considering the fact that professional response at each stage of investigation, including the coordination of investigative authority by the prosecution and police, has recently become more important, Daeryun Law Firm decided to recruit Attorney Kim to strengthen the expertise of the Criminal Investigation Center. It is expected that the joining of lawyers from previous departments will enable a thorough response to various criminal lawsuits. Attorney Kim, who graduated from Seoul National University Law School, was appointed as a prosecutor at the Seoul District Prosecutors' Office and worked at the Seoul District Prosecutors' Office and the Gwangju High Prosecutors' Office as the chief prosecutor of the 5th and 3rd criminal divisions of the Seoul Eastern District Prosecutors' Office and the chief prosecutor of the 1st criminal division of the Busan District Prosecutors' Office. Shim Jae-guk, representative attorney of Daeryun Law Firm, said, "The recruitment of experienced lawyers this year is to strengthen the criminal center. “With the recruitment of lawyers who were former deputy chiefs and chief prosecutors with ample practical experience, we have been able to further strengthen our expertise and ability to respond to criminal cases,” he explained. “We plan to provide realistic and sharp legal interpretations by leveraging the experiences of lawyers who were former deputy chiefs and chief prosecutors and police expert committee members.” He added, “We expect that lawyers from previous departments will play a leading role in further enhancing the criminal task center and other overall work capabilities.” Daeryun operates 20 offices across the country, including Seoul, Busan, Suwon, Cheonan, and Jeju.

Experts also point out that the problems of sexual exploitation of runaway youths who have nowhere to go, juvenile offenders, and criminal juveniles are also serious. There are increasing cases of teenagers exposed to crime-ridden areas boldly committing heinous crimes and abusing their status as minors. Among criminal crimes, sexual exploitation of minors and sexual crimes are serious. Examples include cases where a teenager was arrested for illegally filming a colleague with a cigarette, or was arrested for molesting or sexually assaulting a school classmate. Even if the perpetrator is young and falls under a juvenile protection case, if the case is serious, they are not only arrested but also punished under the criminal law rather than the family court. According to the current law, if you are under the age of 14 to 19, you are criminally responsible and can be subject to criminal procedures and punishment depending on the seriousness of the crime. Even if it is your first offense, it can lead to a prison sentence, so you should not take juvenile crimes lightly and actively deal with them. Caution must also be taken in cases where adults over the age of 19 request sexual exploitation or prostitution from minors. If a person engages in sexual intercourse under the pretext of protection, he or she may be punished as false rape of a minor. According to the Criminal Act, if an adult consensually engages in sexual intercourse with a minor under the age of 16, he or she shall be punished equivalent to the crime of rape. Unlike general rape, rape of a minor is a crime regardless of assault, threats, or consent of the victim. Same as rape, you can be sentenced to 3 years or more in prison. If it is found to be rape rather than constructive rape, the sentence may be more severe. According to the current Supreme Court 2021 Sentencing Guidelines, the sentence for constructive rape against a person under the age of 13 is more than 8 years. If there was sexual intercourse, the sentence applied may vary depending on the circumstances of the crime and the age of the victim, but in most cases, measures are needed as sex offender security measures are imposed along with imprisonment. Our laws do not broadly recognize the sexual freedom of minors. Rape, which involves sexual exploitation of young people who need to be socially protected, or even involves assault or intimidation, is subject to more severe punishment than general criminal crimes, such as imprisonment for life or more than 5 years under the Child and Adolescent Sexual Protection Act. If there are unfair aspects of the facts, legal assistance from a criminal lawyer may be needed for the related case rather than stating that it was consensual.

Sera (33) has taken legal action, directly refuting Mr. A's claim that he threatened to falsely report sexual assault. J-Sera's legal representative, lawyer Choi Yi-seon of Daeryun Law Firm, said in an official statement on the 3rd, "J-Sera was sexually assaulted by the other party while asleep after taking sleeping pills on the night of August 16, 2021. After the incident, the other party continued to confess his love to J-Sera and said that he truly liked J-Sera. It is true that he behaved as if nothing had happened.” However, Mr. A later boasted that he had sexual contact with J. Sera, and J. Sera, who was angry, asked, “How can you rape me while I was asleep after taking sleeping pills, and then brag about it to people around you?” Attorney Choi explained, “When J. Sera said to the other person, ‘You knew that I took sleeping pills, but that was rape,’ the other person said, ‘I took sleeping pills. He said, "I didn't know at the time, and I found out a few days later," as if he was avoiding responsibility, and said, "The recording file on YouTube was arbitrarily edited by the other party, and J-Sera has the original and plans to submit it to the investigative agency." In addition, regarding the claim that J-Sera called Mr. “It was made clear that the purpose of the invitation to the lodging establishment was ‘a gathering of various influencers for video filming,’ but the other party maliciously edited the contents and made false claims as if J. Sera had booked the lodging establishment and approached the other party with sexual intentions.” He also explained, “As Sera Music is a small private agency, it uses J. Sera’s home as an office for company-related meetings, etc., so acquaintances and employees must frequently visit the house for work. People knew the password to the house, and the other party was fully aware of this fact. Therefore, it is also a one-sided claim by the other party to interpret the invitation to the house as sexual intent. Attorney Choi hinted at legal response, saying, “We have carefully reviewed the evidence and legal principles of this case, and have confirmed the evidence and a satisfactory explanation for the parts you are curious about, and will file a complaint against the other party for quasi-forcible harassment and defamation and proceed with due legal procedures.” A post titled ‘I am being threatened by famous singer J’ was posted on the community. According to the post, Mr. A, who became close with J while working with him, later engaged in skinship at J’s house and when J confessed to him, he rejected it. Afterwards, J suddenly claimed that he had been ‘sexually assaulted’ and started swearing and threatening her. As evidence for this, Mr. A also revealed some of the KakaoTalk conversation messages he shared with J. The conversation contained content in which J conveyed his friendliness to Mr. A and told her his home password, etc. J-Sera, who was later identified as Miss J, said on the 30th of the same month, "He is not my ideal type at all and I have never felt attracted to her, so he tried to inflict this kind of damage on me, who refused to confess to me, so I feel even more hurt and I feel sorry for him." He said, "I plan to respond to matters related to defamation." J-Sera, who debuted with 'Lonely Night', released songs such as 'I Don't Have Me', 'Fever', and 'I Love You'. In addition, she participated in the OST of many dramas such as 'A Woman's Secret', 'Shine Eunsu', 'Summer, Please Take Care of Me', and 'Elegant Mother and Daughter'.

The so-called 'cash collectors' who come to receive cash directly are key participants in voice phishing, but the number of them being sentenced to probation or acquitted is increasing. According to the legal community on the 26th, Mr. A (43), who participated in voice phishing as a cash collector and caused more than 200 million won in damage to a total of 11 people, was sentenced to probation last February. Defendant A was looking for a part-time job through a recruitment site at the end of November last year, received an offer from a voice phishing gang member, and took on the role of a cash collector. Mr. A met the victim, pretended to be an employee of a financial institution, and deceived the victim again and received the cash. Then, by transferring cash to a designated account, a total of 217.5 million won in cash was received 16 times from a total of 11 victims in December last year alone. This means that each victim suffered an average of 20 million won in damage. Mr. A was found guilty of 'fraud' as an accomplice to voice phishing, but the punishment sentenced to him was only 120 hours of community service and a fine of 4 million won. The reason for the sentencing was, "Although he suspected voice phishing and accepted it, it is difficult to say that he wanted to participate in the crime or accepted it emotionally." A court official said, "There are many cases where cash collectors intentionally participate in the crime without completing the crime, and the public is not aware that this is also an accomplice to the voice phishing crime. Therefore, even if the punishment is severe, it is difficult to expect the effect of preventing lower-level gang members from being involved in the voice phishing crime." The reason was revealed. This trend can also be seen in recent Supreme Court precedents. Last June, the 1st Division of the Supreme Court (Chief Justice Park Jeong-hwa) confirmed the innocence of Mr. B (40), who was deceived by a job advertisement and served as a cash collector for a voice phishing crime. The first trial sentenced Mr. B to one year in prison, concluding that he had 'unintentional intent' to commit fraud. On the other hand, the second trial overturned the first trial ruling and declared him not guilty. This is because it is difficult to say that the recognition that one's actions were related to voice phishing has been proven beyond a reasonable doubt. Myung Hyun-jun, a lawyer at Daeryun Law Firm, said, "The people in charge of voice phishing and those responsible for managing them mainly live overseas, so arrests are often difficult to make. In the past, cash collectors were easily recognized as accomplices to fraud and were sentenced to prison similar to the actual offender in most cases, but recently, it has become easier to admit intent to aid." He explained, "As there is discussion about whether this is the right decision in terms of criminal policy, the level of punishment is decreasing somewhat."

Even after the ‘N Room Incident’ last year, measures related to digital sex crimes have not been properly implemented. A petition titled ‘We request an international joint investigation to fundamentally resolve the second N Room, OnlyFans incident’ was posted on the Blue House National Petition website on the 23rd. As of 5:30 pm on the 25th, 378 people agreed. The petition is being reviewed by an administrator after more than 100 people have given prior consent. On the 19th, the Cyber ​​Crime Investigation Unit of the Gyeonggi Southern Police Agency announced that it had arrested Mr. A, in his 30s, on charges of violating the Information and Communications Network Act and the Act on Sexual Protection of Children and Adolescents. Mr. A is accused of making 256 sexually explicit videos and selling them on overseas social media over a period of about a year, making a total of 450 million won in illegal profits. The police also booked 10 people who participated in Mr. A's crime on charges of distributing sexual exploitation videos. Mr. A recruited one man and nine women through Twitter and then produced sexual exploitation videos throughout the Gyeonggi region. Among the female victims in the video, there are also minors. The produced video was registered on ‘OnlyFans’, a British subscription-based SNS. The platform operates in a way that users watch content after paying a certain fee. The problem with OnlyFans is that although it is an adult SNS, it is easily accessible to teenagers. Only those over 18 can sign up, but the adult verification process is lax. It contains mainly pornographic content and has a high level of security. For this reason, voices are raising concerns about youth digital sex crimes within OnlyFans. Last May, the British BBC reported on a case of distribution of pornography targeting teenagers within OnlyFans, and pointed out that OnlyFans is neglecting digital sexual crimes against teenagers. Perpetrators of producing and distributing digital sexual exploitation materials are using overseas SNS to avoid the investigative net. The petitioner said, “Digital sex offenders are evading the investigative network through overseas SNS,” and urged, “We must request international cooperation from other countries for the investigation.” The ‘N Room Incident’ also produced and distributed sexual exploitation of minors through Telegram, an overseas SNS. The perpetrators also emphasized Telegram's security and taunted the police. At the time, the police emphasized cooperation with overseas law enforcement agencies such as Interpol and cooperation in investigating digital sexual violence through diplomatic channels. Even after measures were taken, digital sexual violence crimes continued. Byung-Jun Ko, a lawyer at the Daeryun Law Firm, said, “Currently, the National Police Agency has established a team dedicated to promoting global companies in the Cyber ​​Security Bureau to strengthen cooperation not only with investigative agencies but also with overseas social media companies.” He added, “As the companies in question have overseas servers and are not subject to domestic law, customary investigations are difficult.” Attorney Ko said, “The Korea Communications Commission is reviewing the OnlyFans service,” and “OnlyFans also announced that it would close accounts if content violates the terms and conditions, but this alone is not enough to prevent the distribution of illegal videos.” Do you agree with the petition?

According to the National Police Agency, the number of deaths due to drunk driving accidents last year was 287, a decrease of 2.7% from a year ago (295 people), but the number of drunk driving accidents and injuries increased by nearly 10%. In addition, concerns are raised that drunk driving during daytime hours may increase due to the daytime drinking culture caused by social distancing due to COVID-19. The current Road Traffic Act defines drunk driving when the driver's blood alcohol concentration is 0.03% or more. If caught twice or more, it is stipulated that a person will be sentenced to imprisonment for not less than 2 years but not more than 5 years, or a fine of not less than 10 million won but not more than 20 million won. If casualties occur in a traffic accident, you may be subject to aggravated punishment for dangerous driving causing death. Dangerous driving causing death occurs when you drive in a state where normal driving is difficult and cause a fatal accident. Unlike general drunk driving, the charge of causing death by dangerous driving is not based solely on the blood alcohol level, but comprehensively considers the driver's speech and actions, walking condition, complexion, and abnormal driving. This means that even if your blood alcohol level is low, you can be charged if you are unable to drive normally. Attorney Shim Jae-guk (Daeryun Law Firm) said, “With the revision of the Special Price Act, the statutory penalty for causing death by dangerous driving has been raised. Heavier punishment can be imposed compared to simple drunk driving.” He added, “If the victim causes injury, he or she will be sentenced to imprisonment for not less than 1 year but not more than 15 years, or a fine of not less than 10 million won but not more than 30 million won. In this case, life imprisonment or more than 3 years in prison without a fine can be imposed, so assistance from a lawyer will be inevitable depending on the situation. He said that in the case of a person who was found not guilty on charges of violating the Road Traffic Act and causing harm by dangerous driving, he considered the standards of the criminal law for injuries and whether he lost the ability to make decisions while intoxicated. He said, "As drunk driving is a serious crime, assistance should be provided according to the characteristics of the case based on precedents and legal knowledge." He said. A common explanation among experts is that in the event of a legal dispute, it is important to secure evidence such as CCTV, black box video, and witnesses that can confirm the circumstances at the time. Attorney Shim added, “Drunk driving is a serious accident that can take the lives of others in an instant, so we must deal with it carefully by making legal judgments from the early stage.” Daeryun Law Firm, which provided assistance, operates its own criminal center centered on former chief prosecutors and criminal defense lawyers. There are offices nationwide in Seoul, Incheon, Busan, Jinju, Chuncheon, and Jeju.

Recently, a parent who was sent to trial on charges of brutally abusing a child to death through repeated assault and neglect was sentenced to a severe sentence of 30 years in prison. In addition, there was a case in which the biological mother was arrested on charges of child abuse and death under the Special Act on the Punishment of Child Abuse Crimes and habitual neglect under the Child Welfare Act. According to the ‘2019 Key Child Abuse Statistics’ announced by the Ministry of Health and Welfare last year, among the 30,045 cases of child abuse that occurred nationwide in 2019, neglect accounted for 2,885 cases, or 9.6%. Excluding the number of overlapping abuse cases, this is the highest figure following emotional abuse (7,622 cases, 25.4%) and physical abuse (4,179 cases, 13.9%). Neglect is a type of abuse that fails to meet a child's basic needs and includes abandonment due to negligence or refusal by the guardian, failure to provide basic food, clothing, and shelter, failure to provide sufficient care to the extent that the child's health is impaired, and failure to send the child to school. Failure to take neglect seriously and fail to respond also raises legal issues. Our law stipulates that murdering a child is punishable by death, imprisonment for life, or imprisonment for life or more than 7 years, and causing death is punishable by imprisonment for life or imprisonment for life or more than 5 years. It is stipulated that if serious injury is caused, the person is sentenced to imprisonment for not more than 3 years, and if physical or emotional abuse, abandonment, neglect, or other acts of abuse other than sexual crimes prohibited by the Child Welfare Act are recognized, the person is to be imprisoned for not more than 5 years, or a fine of not more than 50 million won. Criminal lawyer Park Dong-il (Daeryun Law Firm) said, “In particular, those who are required to report child abuse, such as daycare teachers, are liable to harm as emotional abuse that harms the child's mental health and development is prohibited. “Parents of children who have been harmed will likely want to suffer irreparable emotional trauma and plead for severe punishment for those involved,” he said, introducing a case in which a daycare teacher was recently put on trial for abusing children. Attorney Park said, “We collected evidence such as CCTV footage at the time, revealed and claimed that the crime had been committed repeatedly over a considerable period of time targeting multiple victims, and as a result of assisting from the early stage of the investigation to ensure that they were punished commensurate with their guilt, a 3-year prison sentence and a protective order were imposed.” According to the reality, it is difficult to prove child abuse damage, including emotional abuse, neglect, and abandonment, except in cases where physical evidence such as physical abuse is clear. On the other hand, even if you are accused of child abuse, it is evaluated that the assistance of a lawyer is helpful in the defense. Attorney Park said, “It will be important to find extenuating factors with legal experts,” adding, “Unlike in the past, in child abuse cases, there are more actions that can be included in the act of abuse, so even minor actions and words can be misunderstood as abuse. Since it is not easy to check for abuse, prevention and fundamental measures from related organizations will also be necessary.” He added. Daeryun Law Firm provides legal services with a team of criminal defense attorneys, including former chief prosecutors. Currently, there are offices across the country, including Seoul, Busan, Jinju, Chuncheon, and Jeju.

According to the Road Traffic Authority, the number of traffic accidents classified as drivers caused by personal mobility devices such as electric kickboards quadrupled in two years from 225 in 2018 to 897 last year, and the number of casualties was 995. Accidents involving collisions with pedestrians amounted to 304, a five-fold increase compared to 2018 (61). Accordingly, the Non-Life Insurance Association established a total of 38 standards for fault ratios, including applying a one-party fault ratio to PM drivers, in order to prevent disputes and lawsuits over fault ratios resulting from traffic accidents between PMs and cars. Driving an electric scooter on a sidewalk, not wearing a helmet, or driving without a license are all violations of the Road Traffic Act. If physical or property damage occurs as a result, you are liable for civil damages. Chan-Woo Jeong, a traffic accident lawyer (Daeryun Law Firm), said, “If you have suffered damage from a traffic accident, you should be careful not to enter into an unfavorable settlement.” Since the burden of proof in a civil lawsuit lies with the plaintiff, the advice is that the assistance of a lawyer is necessary to prove damages. Additionally, the statute of limitations for claiming compensation for tort damages is 3 years from the date the victim or legal representative became aware of the offender, and 10 years from the date the tort occurred. Therefore, you should also be aware that if you do not file a lawsuit within the relevant period, the validity of your claim may be lost. In particular, there are cases where aftereffects from traffic accidents appear late and damages cannot be claimed because the statute of limitations has expired. Attorney Jeong said, “If you have suffered significant damage, you should consider filing a lawsuit for damages even more.” He added, “If it is a serious accident, you deserve to receive sufficient compensation, but if you simply reach an agreement based on the insurance company’s internal terms and conditions, there is a high probability that you will not receive proper compensation. After receiving sufficient treatment, it is time to legally review whether the level of compensation is appropriate. “It is necessary,” he said. He added, “If the two sides cannot agree on the amount of damages, the amount will have to be calculated through a court ruling.” He added, “As a lawsuit claiming traffic accident damages can be seen as a dispute over the ratio of fault, it would be helpful to resolve the issue with a legal expert.” Daeryun Law Firm, which provided assistance, operates its own traffic accident specialist center comprised of traffic accident lawyers. Branch offices are distributed throughout the country, including in Seoul, Jinju, Jeju, Chuncheon, and Cheongju.

I am connected to lawyer Jayoung Yoon again today.. Lawyer, Are you with me?·▶Jayoung Yoon : yes, hello. This is Jayoung Yoon.▷Lee Ho-sang : yes, Lawyer. How have you been?·▶Jayoung Yoon : yes, I'm doing well.▷Lee Ho-sang : The first incident to consider, After causing a car accident, he disappeared after only asking the victim how he was doing. 50big, You were sentenced to a fine.·▶Jayoung Yoon : yes. AMr. Past 5month 16work morning 11I was crossing the crosswalk on a road in Cheongwon-gu, Cheongju-si. 9fat BI hit a sheep with my car.. but AImmediately after the accident, Mr. BThey simply asked the sheep how they were doing and did not inform their guardians or the police.. It is also known that he left the scene of the incident without leaving any information such as his name or contact information that could identify him.. one side, BBecause of this accident, the sheep 2I suffered an injury that required weekly treatment.. Accordingly, the prosecution AViolation of the Act on Aggravated Punishment of Specific Crimes, etc., Fine for fleeing and causing injury 5A summary indictment was filed for one million won.. AHe claimed that he had taken all protective measures.. now ADuring the trial, when he saw the victim's condition, he said that the victim responded that he was fine and claimed that he had fulfilled his obligation to provide relief under the Road Traffic Act.. Accordingly, although the court was able to recognize that there was a high possibility of injury if one collided with a person, 9to three children "Are you okay?·"After emphasizing that he only bitten the victim, he did not provide any name or contact information of the defendant and left the scene without contacting the victim with a guardian, etc., which is in violation of the Road Traffic Act. 54It was pointed out that the obligation to take rescue measures stipulated in Article 2 was not fulfilled.. So, the court ruled that the penalty imposed by the summary order was too low and that the penalty was increased, saying that the victim was shocked in the children's protection zone and no protective measures were taken, and that the defendant had the young victim appear in court as a witness at the defendant's insistence. 7Sentenced to one million won.▷Lee Ho-sang : This means the court decided that the man ran away.. Without taking protective measures. I think any driver can encounter this type of situation.. And on the contrary, Lawyer. Please explain to me what actions a driver should take when an accident like this occurs so that we can prove that he did not run away..▶Jayoung Yoon : yes, When a traffic accident occurs, sometimes the victim has no injuries., There may be cases where people say they are fine but strongly discourage hospital treatment.. Even in this case, the precedent states that even though the victim was aware of the fact that he had suffered a casualty, he did not take protective measures and left the scene of the accident, resulting in a situation in which it was impossible to determine who caused the accident., I think it's a case of running away without taking action.. In particular, if the victim is a minor, the guardian must be contacted or confronted., If you cannot contact your guardian, You will need to contact the police and explain the situation.. Also, as in the above situation, believing that the victim is okay and not taking any action can constitute a crime of fleeing causing injury.. Now, as I mentioned earlier, in order to prevent this situation, it is necessary to obtain your personal information as well as the cooperation of the police..▷Lee Ho-sang : Then, lawyer, For example, if we caused this accident,, Giving a business card to the injured person, Is it okay to this extent?·▶Jayoung Yoon : yes, As mentioned in the previous precedent, if the person who caused the accident can be confirmed, it is difficult to consider it as a runaway, so it is a good idea to hand over a business card..▷Lee Ho-sang : ah, However, just in case, the most important thing is to contact your insurance company or report it to the police and let them know that such an incident has occurred.·▶Jayoung Yoon : yes. yes.▷Lee Ho-sang : Let's find out the next incident.. Driving drunk and crashing into a building 60big, I also remember that there was news like this.. 60A suspended sentence has been handed down.·▶Jayoung Yoon : yes AMr. 2month 4work morning 2Blood alcohol concentration, which is the level for license cancellation, on a road in Jeungpyeong-eup, City Hall 0.042%While driving, he rushed into a nearby convenience store.. At the convenience store entrance BWhile Mr. was trying to avoid it, he fell and fell. 2Caution There has been an injury. AHe was put on trial on charges of causing death by driving.. The court sentenced 2probation for 1 year 4Community service while sentenced to 1 year 120Time and law-abiding driving lecture 80I gave a command to supercharge my time.. The court AAlthough his blood alcohol content is relatively high, he is reflecting on his crime., It was ruled that the sentence was decided considering the fact that he was supporting his elderly mother alone..▷Lee Ho-sang : We have handled many drunk driving cases., What I feel every time is that in a drunk driving case, I end up committing a crime again., So, I think there are a lot of cases of repeat offenders.. Nevertheless, probation. In the case of more habitual criminals, isn't the sentence harsher? However, in this case, he was a habitual offender and even rushed into a convenience store, but he was given probation.. It seems like I've been treated with a lot of leniency..▶Jayoung Yoon : AMr. too 2008fined for drunk driving 100It is known that a summary order of 10,000 won was received.. A considerable amount of time has passed since the first time you were punished for drunk driving.. As stated in the ruling, the fact that he is reflecting on the crime appears to have been taken into consideration as a sentencing factor..▷Lee Ho-sang : okay. When the lawyer explained earlier, I looked at the court's decision and the defendant. So, you said that the fact that the drunk driver was supporting his elderly mother on his own was also taken into consideration.. There seem to be some cases where the level of punishment is lowered when the defendant is the only family member with financial ability..▶Jayoung Yoon : yes it is. When a defendant who is the only member of the family engaged in economic activities is arrested, whether the livelihood of the rest of the family may actually be threatened is sometimes referred to as sentencing data.. Economic activity is one of the many sentencing factors, but these circumstances do not necessarily mean a reduced sentence or a suspended sentence.. In the end, if the punishment is high depending on the severity of the crime, it seems that arrest cannot be avoided even if there are such reasons..▷Lee Ho-sang : If you are responsible for the livelihood of your family, you should never drink and drive.. Let's find out the last incident.. Company money over the years 13Hundreds of millions of won. That's amazing. 30teen women. There was a case where a heavy sentence was handed down..▶Jayoung Yoon : yes. I was in charge of fund management at a company located in Cheongju. AMr. Past 2013year 2from month 2020year 2until approx. 7years 99company money over time 13Sentenced to prison after being indicted on charges of embezzling hundreds of millions of won 6sentenced to years. AMr. Manipulated the transaction details in the name of paying the CEO an advance payment.. It is known that the company's funds were thus embezzled.. It is known that he even used his own daughter's savings account to hide his crime.. This money in the end AIt is known that he used it for personal purposes such as living expenses and stock investment.. The court AThe period of the crime against Mr.. The scale of the embezzlement is said to be large, and it appears that the victim's crime has also had an impact on the financial difficulties of the victim company.. He pointed out that there was no serious effort to recover from the damage and stated the reason for the sentencing on the grounds that the crime was very thorough and planned, so the crime was very serious..▷Lee Ho-sang : You said the crime was not very good.. It suddenly occurred to me, lawyer, what is the difference between general embezzlement and business-related embezzlement?·▶Jayoung Yoon : First of all, let me briefly talk about embezzlement. Embezzlement is a crime in which a person who keeps another person's property embezzles it or refuses to return it. 5imprisonment of up to one year. 1,500be subject to a fine of less than 10,000 won. To put it simply, if you rent a car and do not return it even when the rental period is over, it can be embezzlement.. In the above case, it can be considered business embezzlement.. Embezzlement at work will result in harsher punishment.. When a person who keeps another person's property for work commits an act like this, the crime of business embezzlement is committed.. Therefore, unlike general embezzlement 10imprisonment of up to one year. 3,000It is subject to a fine of not more than 10,000 won.. As in the above situation, the amount of embezzlement is 5If it is over 100 million won, a specific law applies and weapons or 5You can be punished by imprisonment for more than one year..▷Lee Ho-sang : liver big 30It's a teenage woman. 13You stole hundreds of millions of won.. All right. Attorney, thank you for your words today. 2See you again in a week.▶Jayoung Yoon : thank you.▷Lee Ho-sang : until now 'lawyer's eyes' You worked with lawyer Jayoung Yoon.. source : BBS NEWS(https://news.bbsi.co.kr)View original article - http://news.bbsi.co.kr/news/articleView.html?idxno=3039622 2026-05-11T05:45:28.757Z https://www.daeryunlaw.com/en/broadcast/93 Recently, a man who violated a restraining order and tried to kidnap his wife who was in divorce proceedings was caught by the police. He went to the house and attempted to kidnap his wife because she was not responding to calls, and the police arrested him for red-handed offenses, including violating the Domestic Violence Punishment Act, and are currently investigating him. According to the legal community, it is common for a man to be intimidated by mental shock when he is subjected to multiple violence by the perpetrator, and many people hesitate to take legal action due to concerns about their financial situation after divorce. Experts agree that legal assistance is absolutely necessary because violence can become more serious the longer it is left untreated and can extend to children. Divorce lawyer Hyun-ji Lee (Daeryun Law Firm) said, “If the perpetrator of the violence does not agree to divorce, a judicial divorce is the way to go.” He added, “Responses such as pre-suit mediation and family investigation are necessary, and above all, it will be important to prevent divorce lawsuits from becoming another pain.” In Korea, in order for divorce to be recognized, the breakdown of marriage is necessary. They are choosing culpability, which requires proving that the other party is responsible. For this reason, there are cases where domestic violence is not recognized as grounds for divorce due to lack of evidence. Attorney Lee Hyeon-ji said, “The key to divorce litigation is collecting evidence,” and added, “It will be important to allow victims to use the protection system and to ensure that preliminary injunctions, victim protection orders, etc. can be processed in a timely manner as a precaution against retaliation.” Explain that △collecting messages acknowledging assault, or △doctor's opinions, medical certificates, and medical records can also be applied as evidence. In addition, temporary measures under the Domestic Violence Punishment Act can be used to ensure that the perpetrator and the victim are separated. Attorney Lee added, "We need to strengthen protection measures for victims and prove the fact of domestic violence. We need to find ways to promote a stable life after divorce by considering alimony claims, securing child support, and property division claims, while at the same time making full use of the domestic violence victim system." Daeryun Law Firm, which provided assistance, has its own divorce center and has We provide legal services such as property division, child custody, and child support. Currently, there are offices across the country, including Seoul, Busan, Daegu, Incheon, Gwangju, Daejeon, Ulsan, Suwon, Changwon, Cheongju, Jeonju, Uijeongbu, Chuncheon, Jinju, and Jeju.

According to the legal community, the Electronic Financial Transactions Act applies to those who have received cash exceeding tens of millions of won and delivered the amount minus their own allowance due to recent job offers that say, 'If you collect the borrowed money in person, you will be paid an allowance.' There were cases where imprisonment was imposed for violations. This method is called ‘face-to-face’ voice phishing, and while the ‘account transfer’ method has decreased by one-third compared to the previous year, ‘face-to-face’ voice phishing has increased significantly to about 15,000 cases last year. Criminal lawyer Kang Doo-jin (Daeryun Law Firm) said, “Anyone can become a victim or suspect in face-to-face voice phishing,” and “Especially the voice phishing headquarters. He urged caution, saying, “If you are deceived by a high-profit part-time job and become involved in a crime, you may be subject to criminal punishment based on whether or not you intentionally failed to complete the crime.” The court judges the degree of criminal participation based on objective evidence, but if fraud is found, the person is subject to imprisonment for up to 10 years or a fine of up to 20 million won. Depending on the amount of damage, the Act on Aggravated Punishment for Specific Economic Crimes may be applied, and independently of arrest and punishment, you may have to pay compensation to the victims that is dozens of times the amount of money you took. Attorney Kang said, “If you are wrongfully accused of being an accomplice, you will have to legally prove that the fraud organization thoroughly deceived you.” He added, “Recently, as courts are taking a strict attitude toward voice phishing, sentences are also getting stronger. Everyone is a victim. “For voice phishing, where you can become a suspect, you will definitely need the assistance of a lawyer,” he emphasized. Daeryun Law Firm, which provided the help, operates its own criminal center dedicated to voice phishing cases. We have 16 offices across the country, including Seoul, Busan, Daegu, Incheon, Gwangju, Daejeon, Ulsan, Suwon, Changwon, Cheongju, Uijeongbu, Jeonju, Uijeongbu, Chuncheon, Jinju, and Jeju.

In addition, the plan is to strengthen the prevention of damage from digital sex crimes, such as by establishing a special provision for undercover investigation. Jae-guk Shim, a sex crime lawyer (Daeryun Law Firm), said, “Digital sex crimes are causing serious damage not only to adults but also to teenagers,” and that “the level of punishment for digital sex crimes that take advantage of the emotional emptiness of children will continue to increase.” Those who produce and distribute sexual exploitation materials targeting boys are subject to sexual exploitation of children and adolescents. There was a case where a person was sent to the prosecution for violating the law on protection. The police, who judged that the case was serious and that there was a high risk of recidivism as there were dozens of children victims, decided to disclose their personal information. According to the current Act on the Sexual Protection of Children and Adolescents, anyone who produces, imports, or exports sexually exploitative materials of children or adolescents is subject to life imprisonment or a fixed-term prison sentence of 5 years or more. Additionally, simply downloading sexually exploitative material and then possessing and viewing it can result in a sentence of more than one year in prison. If you are classified as a sex offender, an order to disclose personal information may be issued and additional sanctions, such as restrictions on employment, will follow. Attorney Shim said, “The act of distributing and possessing sexually exploitative materials targeting children and adolescents will inevitably require punishment due to the fact that it seriously distorts people’s sexual consciousness and the damage can spread to other sexual crimes,” adding, “However, it was not sold, rented, distributed, or provided for profit. “If there is a lack of intent to possess it, there is no history of criminal punishment, there is a confession and reflection, it would be helpful to receive legal assistance from a sex crime lawyer from the beginning of the investigation,” he said. Daeryun Law Firm (Yuhan), which provided assistance, has its own sexual crime center and provides legal assistance for sexual crimes such as violation of the Sexual Assault Act, forcible harassment, and rape. We operate offices across the country, including in Seoul, Busan, Daegu, Incheon, Gwangju, Daejeon, Ulsan, Suwon, Changwon, Cheongju, Jeonju, Uijeongbu, Chuncheon, Jinju, and Jeju.

According to data from the Housing and Urban Guarantee Corporation (HUG), from 2016 to May of this year, there were a total of 5,453 accidents nationwide with a return guarantee for rent deposits, with an accident amount of about 1.0915 trillion won, and 77% of the accidents occurred in the metropolitan area. It was calculated that this is the case. In the legal world, the first method of self-rescue is to apply for a payment order. The application for a payment order can be made even without the debtor's consent, and if the court determines that the purpose of the application and explanatory materials are appropriate, a copy of the payment order decision is immediately sent, which has the advantage of saving cost and time through a simplified litigation process. However, depending on the case, it is advised that a lawsuit for the return of the deposit may be an appropriate solution. Real estate lawyer Shim Jae-guk of Daeryun Law Firm (Limited) said, "If a dispute related to the return of the deposit is expected, it is better to file a lawsuit from the beginning. An application for a payment order will be converted into a lawsuit when the other party raises an objection. If the validity of the claim is not acknowledged, there is a risk that it will be dismissed or an amendment order will be issued, which will result in additional waste of time and money." In general, the deposit return lawsuit is known to be the most effective way to get the deposit back, but the tenant's You must prove your obligation to return the deposit and prepare supporting materials. This includes proof of contents, lease agreements, and all materials proving that there was no implied intention to renew. Attorney Shim said, “As the so-called tin can lease issue is a long-standing evil in the real estate market, it will be most important for tenants to be aware of it and deal with it.” He added, “You must proceed with the contract by looking into whether or not a mortgage has been established, calculation of seniority bonds, and whether you can report a move-in and report a confirmed date. Above all, in civil lawsuits, proof through evidence has a great influence on winning the case, so in a lawsuit for the return of the lease deposit, “It will be helpful to receive legal help when proceeding with such matters,” he added. Daeryun Law Firm (Lihan), which provided the help, is assisting with related cases through its own real estate dedicated center. Currently, we have offices all over the country, including Seoul, Busan, Daegu, Incheon, Gwangju, Daejeon, Ulsan, Suwon, Changwon, Cheongju, Jeonju, Uijeongbu, Chuncheon, Jinju, and Jeju.

The legal community advises that individual investors who eventually face bankruptcy through so-called ‘leverage investment’, which involves borrowing money to buy cryptocurrency, can consider the personal rehabilitation system. Insolvency lawyer Shim Jae-guk (Daeryun Law Firm) said, “If an individual debtor facing bankruptcy has a certain amount of income in the future, he or she may be able to utilize the personal rehabilitation system, which allows the remaining debt to be exempted by repaying a certain amount over a set period of time.” However, there is a recent case in which the court dismissed the application, believing that it was an abuse of the personal rehabilitation process when the debt was significantly increased through cryptocurrency investment, which appeared to be a speculative activity. Regarding this, he explained, “The court ruled that speculative debt can be a ‘moral hazard’ as a result of abuse of the personal rehabilitation system, so even if it is a system with no limit on debt, if the application is not sincere, it can be dismissed.” He pointed out that cryptocurrency investment is different from gambling or speculation, and it is not difficult to find advertisements saying that rehabilitation can be applied for, so caution is needed. Attorney Shim said, "If the application for rehabilitation is not sincere, the court may not accept the application for rehabilitation. If the reason for the application for rehabilitation is excessive debt arising from a highly speculative investment, it may be helpful to first seek legal assistance through legal counseling." Jaeguk Shim, an insolvency lawyer, said, "Even if the debt is speculative, the debt situation may be different for each individual, such as the degree of debt and the circumstances of the investment. If sufficient persuasion is provided to the court, the decision to approve personal rehabilitation can be made." “There is a possibility that you can receive it,” he said. “In particular, when applying for personal rehabilitation bankruptcy with cryptocurrency or stock investment debt, the court will strictly look at the repayment plan, so you will need to prepare the application documents meticulously and thoroughly.” He also said, “If you are an individual debtor with debts of more than 10 million won, unsecured debts of 1 billion won, and secured debts of 1.5 billion won or less, and you are an income earner with a certain income, it is advantageous to apply for rehabilitation, and the total debt is 2.5 billion won. “If your income exceeds KRW or is below the minimum cost of living, it would be advantageous to file for bankruptcy,” he said. However, if an individual has excessive debt, the beneficial debt adjustment system may be different, and as the number of applicants for rehabilitation bankruptcy has increased, the court has emphasized legal assistance by judging application documents and materials strictly. Daeryun Law Firm, which provided assistance, provides legal consultation on rehabilitation bankruptcy. Currently, we have offices all over the country, including Seoul, Busan, Daegu, Incheon, Gwangju, Daejeon, Ulsan, Suwon, Changwon, Cheongju, Jeonju, Uijeongbu, Chuncheon, Jinju, and Jeju.

According to reports, the company's safety training and safety managers stipulated in the Occupational Safety and Health Act were not present at the site. The legal community sees it as an industrial accident due to insufficient safety management. According to the Occupational Safety and Health Act (Article 38), ‘Necessary measures must be taken to prevent industrial accidents due to hazards when handling heavy objects or performing other work.’ According to the legal community, when an accident occurs, under the Occupational Safety and Health Act, the employer is required to report it to the head of the local employment and labor office. If an employer attempts to conceal an industrial accident, criminal punishment such as violation of the Occupational Safety and Health Act or occupational manslaughter is possible. Also, in order to avoid this, it is explained that if workers are forced to sign an agreement or are urged to give up their industrial accident application, this can also be considered an illegal act. Chan-Woo Jeong, an industrial accident lawyer (Daeryun Law Firm), said, “In order for an injury, disability, or death caused by a worker’s accident or disease to be recognized as an occupational accident, it must meet the standards for recognition of occupational accidents or occupational diseases under the Industrial Accident Compensation Insurance Act.” He added, “It must be acknowledged that there is a significant causal relationship between work and accidents. “The burden of proof for this lies with the worker, so it will inevitably be a burden in reality.” If a facility collapses in the workplace and a disaster occurs, the employer will be liable for disaster compensation and compensation for damages under civil law for reasons such as violation of the duty to consider the safety of workers. However, if the civil damage compensation amount exceeds the industrial accident compensation amount, only a portion of the damage liability is replaced with industrial accident insurance benefits. For the remaining damages, the worker must file a civil claim for damages from the employer. Attorney Jeong said, "Because compensation for worker damages cannot be replaced by industrial accident insurance money, it is better to file a claim so that you can receive compensation directly from the employer. Among the total damages, such as damages arising from not being able to work, future medical expenses, nursing expenses, and death benefits, the portion that is not compensated by industrial accident insurance benefits should be carefully reviewed with a legal expert such as an industrial accident lawyer, and compensation will be provided to the employer. He added, “In order to be recognized as an industrial accident, proving the causal relationship is most important, so it is important to collect evidence and clearly identify the person responsible.” He added, “Even though there are parts that can be recognized as industrial accidents and damages, there are some people who believe that it is a natural burden for workers to make efforts to reveal the specific facts through legal assistance.” View original article - https://news.naver.com/main/read.nhn?mode=LSD∣=sec&sid1=101&oid=119&aid=0002492826 2026-05-11T05:56:14.317Z https://www.daeryunlaw.com/en/broadcast/87 Last month, the government deliberated and decided on the promulgation of the Act on Punishment of Stalking Crimes (Stalking Punishment Act). It has been 22 years since the bill was first proposed in the 15th National Assembly. Until now, stalking has been punished only as a minor misdemeanor, but there have been many cases of it leading to larger crimes, so there have been voices calling for improvements in related laws. The legal community analyzed this decision as a change in perception that stalking is not just a women's problem, but anyone can be the target of a crime. Five types of stalking crimes have been specified that will be implemented from September of this year, and in relation to the increased level of crime, the police expects to prepare a related manual and actively enforce the law. Going forward, those who engage in continuous or repeated stalking will be subject to imprisonment for up to 3 years or a fine of up to 30 million won. If you use a dangerous object such as a weapon, you will be punished by imprisonment for up to 5 years or a fine of up to 50 million won. In particular, obstructing your path by approaching or following you, waiting or watching in places where you live every day such as residence, work, or school, using the information and communication network such as mail, telephone, or fax to send objects, words, words, signs, sounds, pictures, images, or images, sending objects directly or through a third party, or damaging objects placed in your residence. All of these are defined as acts that can cause anxiety and fear. In addition, the police who receive the report must immediately go to the scene and, if necessary, take emergency measures such as issuing a written warning to stop the crime, prohibiting access within 100 meters, prohibiting access using telecommunications, and confining the offender to a detention center or detention center. It also includes provisions to obtain post-approval from a district court judge. If the damage is severe, measures have been taken to protect the victim by delivering them to emergency treatment and counseling centers. Meanwhile, although this stalking punishment law makes active criminal punishment possible, there are some concerns. In July of last year, in a keynote speech at the National Assembly Debate on the Gender Violence and Murder Eradication Act, Shim Jae-guk, a criminal lawyer at Daeryun Law Firm (Limited), said, "You have to prove that the damage caused by stalking is continuous or repeated, and it is difficult to prove that it caused fear and anxiety. Unlike sexual crimes, it is defined as a crime of impunity against will, so the problem is that the perpetrator may try to reach an unreasonable agreement with the victim." “There was a case where a regular customer killed the victim, but the perpetrator had been stalking the victim for a long time, but after being suspended for business obstruction, he was sentenced to 20 years in prison for murdering the victim,” he said. “In addition, stalking crimes, such as cases where the victim was chased for 50 km on the highway but sent back because he did not cause direct harm, will continue to increase, and there will be a need to enact special laws to protect the victims’ rights.” View original article - https://news.naver.com/main/read.nhn?mode=LSD∣=sec&sid1=103&oid=016&aid=0001821512 2026-05-04T13:29:04.679Z https://www.daeryunlaw.com/en/broadcast/86 dating violence, 'intimate relationship'Even in cases where the perpetrator agrees due to fear of retaliation, there is a need for enactment and revision of laws to deal with the special nature of dating violence.[Asia Economy Reporter Lee Joo-mi] # 2018In Gwanak-gu, Seoul 30A man murdered his lover who lived with him.

From the victim's perspective, it is not easy to demand strong punishment because they are in a romantic or intimate relationship., Released perpetrators eventually have the potential to commit more serious assaults or even murders..Another problem is that, unlike general assault, dating violence occurs when the perpetrator and the victim are close and live in each other's homes., There is a high probability that you know the place of employment, etc.. For this reason, victims often agree to consent out of fear of retaliation from the perpetrator.. at last, Proper punishment cannot be achieved through agreement between the perpetrator and the victim..chief mournerKBSgo 2016since 2020Results of analysis of rulings on dating violence cases in Jeju up to 2018 31Approximately half of the victims reached an agreement with the perpetrator..

At the time of its introduction, former Democratic Party lawmaker Pyo Chang-won, who was a professor at the National Police University, "The three strikes and outs system can only be a stopgap measure."as "Since there is no choice but to apply the crime of assault to the simple criminal law, there is a limit to not being able to arrest or impose a prison sentence for the first crime due to fairness in similar crimes."It has been pointed out that.Since there is no separate law regarding dating assault, it is not easy to punish or prevent it.. For example, if violence occurs in an intimate couple relationship, such as dating violence, emergency temporary measures can be taken by issuing a restraining order to the perpetrator in accordance with the Special Act on Domestic Violence.. At this time, if the police determine that there is a risk of domestic violence recurring, it is possible to issue a restraining order..However, the Special Act on Domestic Violence only regulates marital relationships and does not cover dating violence.. Victims of dating violence can also apply for a restraining order..

Unlike the first trial, which previously found him guilty, the second trial court declared him not guilty, and the Supreme Court found him guilty. Mr. A, the company representative, was sent to trial on charges of forcible harassment for actions such as grabbing a female subordinate's head and pulling it to his chest at a company dinner. He was found guilty in the first trial based on the statements of the female employees and those present at the company dinner, but in the second trial, he was found not guilty on the grounds that the company dinner took place in a public place, that there was no sexual language or behavior, and that it is difficult to recognize the head and shoulders as specific body parts related to sex according to social norms. The appeal judgment was overturned again by the Supreme Court. The court ruled that a surprise assault, which involves both assault and harassment, cannot be considered an extenuating factor even if it occurred in a public place with other people present. Mr. A's arm touching the female employee's neck and Mr. A's breast touching the female employee's head at the time were also considered acts that could cause sexual humiliation to the general public. As a result, the Supreme Court ruled that molestation was recognized, saying that the female employee at the time should be considered to have felt sexual shame. According to the legal community, there is a trend to expand the scope of interpretation of the crime of forcible molestation, such as considering that ‘surprise molestation’ also falls under the crime of forcible molestation. If found guilty, he or she will be sentenced to imprisonment for up to 10 years or a fine of up to 15 million won. He explains that in many cases, even if there was no clear assault or threat, it is recognized as forcible molestation. Jae-guk Shim, a criminal lawyer at Daeryun Law Firm Limited, said, “Because we have a wide range of judgments regarding forcible molestation cases, even in insignificant physical contact, there are many cases where the charge is recognized and the person is at risk of punishment.” “Do not assume that the charge of forcible molestation will not be applied, but if you are involved in a sexual harassment case, you must keep all possibilities open and deal with it,” he said. He continued, “One of the most common mistakes made when accused of a sexual crime is claiming to be innocent, but failing to secure evidence to support the claim, resulting in a wrong initial response and being found guilty.” He added that if the charges are unfair, be sure to seek the help of a legal expert such as a criminal lawyer to resolve the situation as soon as possible.

According to the court's monthly report, the number of corporate bankruptcy applications increased from 931 in 2019 to 1,069 in 2020, an increase of more than 10%. This figure is more than double that of 2013, when corporate bankruptcy applications began to be listed as a separate item in the monthly statistical report, helping many companies avoid a prolonged recession. This is because they believe that the company cannot survive and that it is difficult to survive, so they choose corporate bankruptcy. However, if it is difficult to operate the company temporarily due to changes in economic conditions, it is necessary to actively utilize corporate rehabilitation procedures. What are the corporate rehabilitation and corporate rehabilitation systems that can be chosen as a way to save a company instead of corporate bankruptcy, and in what cases can one apply? Corporate and corporate rehabilitation is a system that reduces the debt burden of a company subject to court arbitration and the consent of creditors. Temporary funds If a company is facing bankruptcy due to a financial crisis, it is more advantageous for the company and its creditors to continue operating the business and repay creditors with the income, rather than disposing of current assets and repaying creditors. In other words, if you apply for corporate rehabilitation and receive preservation measures, repayment of debts to creditors will be temporarily suspended and all funds due will be received, so normal business activities can be continued. Therefore, it is possible to proceed with the procedure if the survival value if the business continues to exist is higher than the liquidation value that would be liquidated in the event of bankruptcy. “The application process is difficult and complex, and it needs to be approached cautiously as it has a huge impact on stakeholders such as companies, debtors, and employees,” said Chan-woo Jung, an attorney at Daeryun Law Firm. “It is important to prevent it from going in the wrong direction,” he added. In addition, care must be taken not to miss the right time when applying. If the business situation has already deteriorated extremely and there is no possibility of generating sales or recovering, even if you proceed with the corporate rehabilitation process, you cannot avoid the decision to dismiss or cancel the application. Therefore, it is important to apply at the right time before the company's management situation deteriorates excessively. However, if continuous operation is difficult enough to consider corporate bankruptcy or corporate rehabilitation procedures, it may be difficult to readily receive counseling because the consultation fees or fees of a lawyer may be burdensome. For this reason, the government and local governments, as well as some law firms, provide counseling to ease the burden on business owners facing corporate bankruptcy or rehabilitation, so find a place where legal counseling is available and make the right time to apply for corporate rehabilitation. It is important to seek legal assistance quickly so as not to miss out. Attorney Jeong Chan-woo also advised, “Rather than proceeding with rehabilitation and bankruptcy procedures through inaccurate information such as the Internet due to the burden of costs, it would be beneficial to actively use legal counseling to come up with a plan.” Daeryun Law Firm (Lihan) is located in Seoul, Busan, Daegu, Incheon, Gwangju, Daejeon, Ulsan, Suwon, Changwon, Cheongju, Jeonju, Uijeongbu, Chuncheon, Jinju, and Jeju. We provide legal consultation on corporate litigation and corporate rehabilitation and bankruptcy.

With the spread of the Internet and SNS, school violence can occur even when students do not meet face-to-face at school, and the level and persistence of cyberbullying that occurs online is actually higher, so there are frequent incidents that require an experienced school violence lawyer. The parents of Ms. A, a fifth-grader at an elementary school in Seoul, recently said When I heard that the School Violence Countermeasures Committee (School Violence Committee) would be opened, I became more worried. After interrogating Ms. A and checking her messages, I found out that she did not actively participate, but the school violence committee was opened because it was discovered that B and her friends, who she used to hang out with, had inflicted cyber violence on C, who transferred from Busan last year. The actions of A and B's friends were to invite them to a group chat room and swear at them, and when they left the chat room, they invited them again and hurled even harsher abuse at them. The bullying included uploading photos to social media without permission and belittling her appearance. Due to the continued harassment, Ms. C eventually deleted all of her SNS accounts and reported school violence, saying, “I am scared of the cell phone alarm that rings frequently.” Ms. A’s parents expressed their regret, saying, “It was clearly a mistake to not stop the bullies while Ms. C was greatly hurt, but I am also very worried that problems may arise in the child’s future.” The Ministry of Education said on the 21st. According to the ‘2020 School Violence Survey’ released last year, while schools were closed in the aftermath of the novel coronavirus, school violence decreased overall, but new forms of violence in different locations and aspects increased. As the time spent at school decreased, physical school violence that occurred in person decreased, but as the time students spent in cyberspace increased, the proportion of cyber violence and group bullying increased. Cyber violence is bullying inflicted on others in cyber space. Types include cyber insults, which involve using insulting language or swearing at a specific person in cyberspace such as SNS or chat rooms; cyber defamation, which involves posting or distributing false content online; cyber sexual harassment, which causes psychological damage to the other person by forcing obscene conversations on the Internet or causing sexual humiliation, and stalking. Accordingly, the ‘Act on Promotion of Information and Communications Network Utilization and Information Protection, etc.’ was enacted to reduce damage in cyberspace, and punishment for cyberbullying became possible. It may be viewed lightly as there is no physical violence, but it is also important to note that the use of physical force does not account for a large factor when considering the severity of school violence cases. Four out of five items in the school violence score standard set by the Ministry of Education are unrelated to physical violence, and the seriousness item is also a part that can be determined depending on the degree of cyberbullying. Unlike in the past, when violence alone was a light measure, transfers and expulsions corresponding to cases 8 and 9 are also being taken. Criminal lawyer Shim Jae-guk (Daeryun Law Firm) said, “If you can’t say something face-to-face, you shouldn’t say it in cyberspace. In most cases of school violence, the relationship between the parties does not go in the direction they think.” He advised, “School violence should never be tolerated under any circumstances, so it can leave fatal aftereffects on victims, so it is essential to understand the accurate facts and respond wisely, including acknowledging and reflecting on the fact of the offense.” - https://n.news.naver.com/article/016/0001791338 2026-05-13T12:50:45.615Z https://www.daeryunlaw.com/en/broadcast/82 [iNews24 Reporter Park Myeong-jin] As the long-term recession continues, the number of landlords who are having trouble with tenants who do not vacate the house or pay rent even after the lease contract is terminated is increasingly turning to real estate lawyers. Mr. A, the landlord, was suffering from stress and financial difficulties due to Mr. B, the tenant who disappeared without paying rent for several months. When the deposit was all used up to the point where he could not even deduct the monthly rent from the tenant's deposit, he could no longer wait for the tenant and eventually hired a real estate lawyer. We decided to file a ‘transfer lawsuit.’ A redirect lawsuit is one of the real estate-related lawsuits and refers to a lawsuit in which an occupier requests delivery of a property that is illegally occupied. △ When the tenant does not vacate the property despite the end of the rental contract period, △ When there is a monthly rent gap of 2 periods under the Housing Lease Protection Act and 3 periods under the Commercial Lease Protection Act. The owner can legally evict the illegal occupier by receiving a judgment and enforcing it through a capital city lawsuit. ◆Why do we need to file a property suit? In the news and other media, the stories of tenants who are in trouble due to their landlords are usually known, but in reality, the number of landlords seeking lawyers for real estate-related disputes is significant. Since it is their real estate, they may think that they can exercise their rights as the right holder against tenants who do not fulfill the terms of the contract, but if a dispute is expected, it is better to prioritize the assistance of an experienced real estate attorney. This is because if you commit an unfair act and take personal action without legal advice, you may have to take criminal action or be liable for damages depending on the legality of the act. Even if it is your own building, if the landlord arbitrarily enters your residential or business space and takes out luggage, you will not only be in danger of being criminally prosecuted for trespassing or trespassing on a building, but you will also be liable for damages. Therefore, rather than exercising one's own skills, you should seek the help of a real estate attorney to find a legal solution. Attorney Jeong Chan-woo of Daeryun Law Firm (Limited) explained, "Due to the recent economic downturn, the number of landlords who want to proceed with a foreclosure lawsuit has increased. However, if you do not prepare thoroughly in advance through a preliminary injunction before possession before proceeding with the lawsuit, the lessee may use various expedients in the middle and the landlord may be in trouble." “If the lessee maliciously transfers possession to a third party as a provisional injunction to preserve the right to claim possession, the owner will not be able to enforce it even if a judgment is obtained against the lessee, so it is important to make thorough preparations to avoid damage,” he added. In this way, in a transfer suit, prior to filing a lawsuit, sufficient consultation must be conducted with an experienced real estate attorney and necessary preservative measures such as a provisional injunction prior to possession and a provisional injunction to prevent disposition must be taken before receiving a judgment in favor of the tenant. There is no difficulty in execution. In addition, in the case of maintenance projects such as reconstruction, attention must be paid to changes in the system and laws of the Urban Maintenance Act and the Aggregate Building Act, and in tenant transfer lawsuits, it is said that various rights of tenants recognized in the Commercial Lease Protection Act must be kept in mind. In particular, he emphasized that since laws and regulations are frequently revised, it is necessary to know the latest precedents through a real estate lawyer. Daeryun Law Firm (Limited), which Attorney Chan-Woo Jeong belongs to, is providing legal consulting on various real estate cases in Seoul, Busan, Daegu, Incheon, Gwangju, Daejeon, Ulsan, Suwon, Changwon, Cheongju, Jeonju, Uijeongbu, Chuncheon, Jinju, and Jeju.

That's not true. As the number of individual investors who saw the crisis in production and consumption as an opportunity due to the coronavirus has increased, fraud methods targeting them have become more sophisticated, so caution is needed. Unlike bank savings, there is no limit to the profits that can be made from investments. Sometimes, you can earn profits that are several times the original amount. Fraudulent crimes under the pretext of such investments are rampant. Although Mr. A received money in the name of investment from investors across the country, including Seoul, Incheon, Daejeon, Daegu, Busan, Gwangju, and Ulsan, he intended to use it for personal purposes or pay it to other investors in a so-called 'turnaround' method. Even though he had no intention or ability to return the principal and profits, he pretended to be an employee of a fund company and deceived direct investors by saying that the principal and profits were guaranteed, or By introducing other investors through the investor, the investor received KRW 9.8 billion in investment money by deceiving the investor by claiming that the principal and profits would be guaranteed. As a result, the victims suffered damages ranging from tens of millions of won to billions of won. The court initially ruled that Mr. A's act of recruiting investors and receiving money while he had no intention or ability to invest in the first place constituted fraud. Since the amount amounted to 10 billion won, it was judged that the nature of the crime was bad, and Mr. A was accused of a specific economic crime. Under the aggravated punishment law, he was sentenced to 8 years in prison. A representative example of this method is fraud, which involves attracting investors with the lure of high profits without investing actual capital, then receiving the principal of those who later invest and paying the profits of the previous person. The act of receiving property or obtaining property benefits by deceiving people is punished as fraud. If a crime is established, the person is subject to imprisonment for up to 10 years or a fine of up to 20 million won. Depending on the amount defrauded from the crime and the amount of profits obtained from the crime, the Act on the Aggravated Punishment of Specific Economic Crimes is applied and the punishment varies. If the amount of gain is between 500 million won and less than 5 billion won, the person is sentenced to imprisonment for more than 3 years, and if the amount of gain is more than 5 billion won, the person is sentenced to imprisonment for more than 5 years or life imprisonment. It does not matter at what point the mistake occurred, as it causes a person to make a mistake. Since it does not necessarily have to be a mistake regarding an important element of a legal act, even if the deceived expression of intent is invalid under civil law, it does not affect the establishment of private crime. As for the means and method of deception, it does not matter whether it is based on words, actions, or omission of intentionally not informing the other party of the truth while knowing that the other party is already in a mistake. And it is necessary to acquire property through the other party's act of delivery, that is, the act of disposition. In addition, the person being deceived and The person receiving the property damage does not need to be the same. Therefore, even if a wife is defrauded of her husband's property, it is considered a crime of fraud. Therefore, if you have suffered from investment fraud, it is necessary to first determine the possibility of a crime by examining with a criminal lawyer with extensive experience in fraud cases whether there was an act of deception, whether there was a mistake as a result, the victim's property disposition, and the resulting damage and property interests. Lastly, proceeding with a criminal trial can only subject the other party to punishment, and to recover the victims' damages separately. You must file an investment fraud complaint and claim compensation for damages. It is necessary to proceed with the procedure safely after taking measures such as provisional seizure and provisional disposition on the other party's property.

A divorce lawyer from Daeryun Law Firm (Limited) said, "Divorce property division must be applied differently from alimony. Property division is the distribution of the marital property accumulated during marriage according to each person's contribution, and alimony is when the person primarily responsible for the breakdown of the marriage compensates the spouse for mental damages." He said, “The court makes a decision by applying different standards to each case.” In other words, even if the other party is at fault, it is a separate issue from property division. The explanation is that since moral status and the contribution that goes into forming property are different, the at-fault spouse also needs to properly assert his/her rights and carefully consider each individual's share. When the at-fault spouse files for divorce, he or she must first check whether the court will allow the claim. At this time, the court comprehensively considers the degree of responsibility of the at-fault spouse, the other spouse's intention to continue the marriage, the parties' ages, duration of marriage, period of separation, and whether circumstances have changed after the breakdown of the marriage. A divorce lawyer from Daeryun Law Firm (Limited) said, "In order to assert one's rights actively and effectively, it would also be helpful to receive assistance from a divorce lawyer who can thoroughly reveal the contribution to property formation," and added, "It will be helpful in a divorce lawsuit." In order to obtain a result, he said, “We need to focus on determining the exact amount of property and claiming contribution, especially in property division.” To this end, “There will be clear limitations in individuals handling procedures such as application for fact inquiry to identify the other party’s property, provisional seizure, and provisional disposition on their own during the divorce property division process,” he advised. “It is advantageous to get expert help as it is necessary to consider the clear object and scope of property division and whether or not to divide unique property.” He advised. Daeryun Law Firm (Lihan) provided currently has branch offices across the country, including headquarters in Seoul and Busan (Centum City/Geoje), Daegu, Incheon, Gwangju, Daejeon, Ulsan, Suwon, Changwon, Cheongju, Jeonju, Uijeongbu, Chuncheon, Jinju, and Jeju.

On the 7th, Daeryun Law Firm announced, “We have converted our organization into Daeryun Law Firm (Limited), which is more advantageous than the infinite law firm in growing the organization through rapid decision-making and recruiting external talent.” Unlike existing unlimited liability law firms, the limited liability law firm is responsible for damages incurred during business, up to the amount previously invested by the attorney in charge and the members who directly directed and supervised it. Since the scope of lawyers' joint liability is narrowed, more lawyers can be recruited, making it easier to expand the law firm. In addition, since it is mandatory to accumulate a compensation reserve or subscribe to liability insurance at the corporate level, it is evaluated that it helps protect clients and is advantageous in securing competitiveness through risk management. The requirement for ‘unanimity of member lawyers’ for unlimited liability law firms is also relaxed. When recruiting external experts or changing the Articles of Incorporation, decisions can be made only with the agreement of a majority of the member lawyers, which has the advantage of eliminating procedural hassles and ensuring efficiency and speed. For reference, in order to change or establish an organization as a limited law firm, more than 500 million won in capital is required, and the requirements are known to be somewhat more stringent than the existing unlimited law firm system, such as strengthening the transparency of law firm accounting and having a compensation system for damages to customers. Law Firm (Limited) Daeryun Shim Jae-guk, a representative attorney, said, "Through the conversion to a limited liability company, we have established member and client protection measures and secured organizational efficiency and flexibility. We will strive to become a global law firm based on the expertise we have accumulated so far." He also introduced the newly introduced management strategy, saying, "We plan to further expand investment in education and human resources training as well as work systems to respond to changes in the industrial environment brought about by the coronavirus pandemic." ■ Non-face-to-face work optimization solution brought forward by COVID-19 In order to lead the untact industrial environment, the establishment of a non-face-to-face organizational ecosystem is declared as a strategic task for 2021 and the management system is reorganized. The video conferencing system introduced for collaboration between the headquarters and 11 regional offices is also applied to clients whose face-to-face meetings are restricted due to COVID-19 to provide non-face-to-face consultation. In addition, through the collaboration system, professional and dedicated lawyers residing throughout the country form a case team, exchange opinions in real time, and perform work as legal representatives. Based on accumulated legal data, we provide one-stop legal services such as quick and professional consultation, issue analysis, argument strategy setting, logic verification, and trial. ■ Preparation for introduction of flexible work system As telecommuting becomes common and the boundaries between work spaces are disappearing, 'Work-Life Blending', which leads career development through work-life harmony, is becoming a new work trend, replacing 'Work-Life Balance', which separated work and life. Accordingly, the optional commuting time system is established as a new work trend. We will conduct a pilot operation and provide support to use working hours efficiently. The background to the introduction of the flexible work system is that as the non-face-to-face online work environment spreads and the distinction between work spaces becomes blurred due to the prolonged COVID-19, the meaning of physical time working at the company has disappeared. Focused on increasing work efficiency and productivity by working freely in a variety of environments through the flexible work system. Welfare systems such as maternity leave, childcare leave, reduced working hours, and sabbatical leave can be flexibly utilized as needed. ■Continued efforts to develop talent Based on the management philosophy of ‘treating the best to the best members and cherishing talent,’ we support education, training, and book purchase expenses for member growth, and actively encourage in-house study lectures. A Daeryun official said, “Currently, we have introduced a permanent recruitment system regardless of field to attract excellent talent. The best in the industry. “We are setting starting salaries by setting a reasonable salary guideline, and maintaining the salary increase rate for talented members at the highest level compared to the same industry.” He added, “There is nothing more unfortunate than having talented people not apply to a corporation due to salary issues. Our goal is to hire good talent and work with them for a long time. We are investing not only in lawyers, but also in all areas, including litigation, management, and service research and development. Through these efforts, the number of applicants who empathize with the values pursued by the corporation is increasing. “The pool of candidates from which to select great talent is expanding,” he added. Currently, Daeryun Law Firm (Yuhan) operates law offices in Seoul, Busan, Daegu, Incheon, Gwangju, Daejeon, Ulsan, Suwon, Changwon, Cheongju, Jeonju, Uijeongbu, Chuncheon, Jinju, and Jeju. We protect our clients' rights and interests through professional lawyers in various fields, including civil affairs, criminal affairs, corporate law, global investments, mergers and acquisitions, property crimes, and financial securities.

In the case, the defendant was accused of hitting the victim twice on the head with a soju bottle while drinking at the store of Mr. A, whom he followed like his own mother, when he saw a drunk customer raising his voice at Mr. It could be an assault. In addition, simply having a wound is not recognized as an injury, but if the damage is difficult to heal naturally and requires treatment at a hospital, it may be recognized as an injury. Additionally, it is explained that even if the victim has no physical injuries, if the victim requires hospital treatment due to mental shock, this can also be recognized as an injury. In particular, if assault or injury is committed while carrying a dangerous object such as a weapon, aggravated punishment is possible. Special injury is a serious crime for which there is no fine in the statutory penalty, and it applies to carrying a dangerous object or causing injury to another person through the force of a group or multiple people. As the criminal law stipulates a prison sentence of not less than 1 year but not more than 10 years, an expert opinion is that it is not easy to avoid severe punishment even for first-time offenders. Suwon criminal lawyer Daeryun Law Firm said, “The defendant at the time did not remember what happened while intoxicated, so the circumstances and motive for the incident were unknown. “A close review of the crime and an accurate analysis of the aggravating and mitigating elements of punishment were effective in leading to a suspended sentence,” he said. “If you look at most special injury crime cases, the suspects often say, ‘I did it out of anger,’ or ‘I did it because I was angry in the moment.’ Depending on the weapon used, attempted murder may be applied, so it would be helpful to receive assistance from a criminal lawyer from the beginning of the case.” He continued, “If it is an assault crime, it will be helpful to have a relationship with the victim.” Punishment can be avoided through agreement, but the possibility of criminal punishment is high for the charge of injury, regardless of whether or not there is agreement.” He advised, “If you are accused of a special injury crime, even if it is your first offense, there is no fine in the statutory sentence, so you should take the seriousness of the situation seriously and receive assistance from a criminal lawyer.” Meanwhile, Daeryun Law Firm, which provided assistance, advised Seoul, Busan, Daegu, Incheon, Gwangju, Daejeon, Ulsan, Suwon, Changwon, Cheongju, and Jeonju. We operate law offices in Uijeongbu, Chuncheon, Jinju, and Jeju.

In the case of the ruling, a defendant who drank alcohol at a dinner party with colleagues and was caught by the enforcement team after getting behind the wheel about an hour later was found to have a blood alcohol level of 0.038%. Under the current Road Traffic Act, the standard for drunk driving is a blood alcohol concentration of 0.03% or higher, so even if you drink just one glass of soju, you can exceed the standard. Accordingly, the prosecutor charged the defendant with drunk driving under the Road Traffic Act. In the trial where the defendant's crime was contested, the sharply conflicting issues were the timing of blood alcohol concentration measurement and the period of increase in blood alcohol concentration. Seocho criminal lawyer Shim Jae-guk of Daeryun Law Firm, who was in charge of representing the defendant at the time, said, "When the defendant was caught for drunk driving, the blood alcohol concentration measured was slightly above the crackdown standard, and the time when the breathalyzer test was taken was when he finished driving. Since it corresponds to a period of rising blood alcohol concentration, it seemed necessary to consider the time when driving was completed, the time of breathalyzer measurement, and measurement errors by the breathalyzer,” he said. Generally, when drinking alcohol, blood alcohol concentration maintains a certain level, rises to the highest level about 30 to 90 minutes after drinking, and then gradually decreases. For this reason, if there is a time gap between the actual driving time and the time of detection, the ‘Weedmark formula’, a method of estimating blood alcohol concentration, is used. Considering that the blood alcohol concentration rises for 30 to 90 minutes after drinking and then begins to decline, the method is to back-estimate what the actual blood alcohol concentration level was at the time of drunk driving by taking into account all factors such as the type and amount of alcohol consumed by the tester, the time of drinking, body weight, and absorption rate in the body. Shim Jae-guk, a Seocho criminal lawyer, said, “We present the Supreme Court ruling that specified similar situations at the time and the possibility of errors that may occur in the process of specifying the time of the incident. Considering various circumstances, it was argued that it cannot be concluded that the defendant's blood alcohol concentration at the time of driving exceeded the punishment standard. In addition, the defendant actively asserted his innocence by asserting favorable circumstances, such as the fact that the fact that he was using mouthwash as prescribed for dental treatment could affect his blood alcohol concentration," he explained. He continued, "Drunk driving is an act that should not be done under any circumstances," and "it is inevitable that heavy punishment is imposed due to various circumstances. “If you are in a crisis, it will be necessary to collect evidence with the help of a lawyer and protect yourself through defense based on extenuating factors,” he said. To this end, he advised, “Even if administrative dispositions such as license cancellation are appropriate, if the results are unjust, you can consider administrative adjudication, which is a system that cancels administrative dispositions or reduces the sentence.” Meanwhile, Daeryun Law Firm said that in relation to drunken accidents, refusal to take a breathalyzer test, aiding and abetting drunk driving, being a passenger while drunk driving, driving without a drunk driver’s license, etc. We provide legal assistance necessary for criminal cases such as traffic crimes, economic crimes, sex crimes, and violent crimes, as well as drunken fatal injuries and hangover driving.

Recently, a report was filed after a YouTuber leaked nude photos of another person on his YouTube channel, which were believed to be victims of so-called 'body cam phishing', and last August, the head of a YouTube channel specializing in travel information posted an inappropriate obscene video on SNS, and the police began an internal investigation. Under the current law, if a video of a person's body is uploaded online without permission, or sent to another person through SNS, printed out, and distributed, the Special Act on Punishment of Sexual Violence Crimes (hereinafter referred to as According to Article 14 (2) of the Sexual Violence Punishment Act, the crime of spreading is punishable by imprisonment for up to 5 years or a fine of up to 50 million won. If the video is transmitted, printed, distributed, or sold using an information and communication network against the victim's will for the purpose of making money, it is prescribed to be punished with imprisonment for a fixed term of 3 years or more. In addition, with the revision of the Sexual Violence Punishment Act, a new penalty of imprisonment for up to 3 years or a fine of up to 30 million won has been established for sellers of illegally filmed sexual exploitation materials as well as for possession, purchase, storage, and viewing. Criminal lawyer Shim Jae-guk of Daeryun Law Firm said, On the 6th, a person in his 20s was arrested for possessing illegally filmed material for the first time since the revised Sexual Violence Punishment Act, which established new regulations to punish those in possession of illegally filmed material, has grown. As voices for stronger punishment for possession, purchase, storage, and distribution of illegally filmed material grow, a prison sentence may be imposed even for first-time offenders or acts out of mere curiosity,” he said. “If convicted of a sex crime, personal information registration, public notification, employment restrictions, and visa issuance restrictions may be imposed.” He explained, “Because you will also be sentenced to a security penalty, there will be serious restrictions on your social life, including employment.” He added, “You should not access the channel because you can be severely punished for possessing or viewing illegally recorded or sexually exploited material, especially if you do not intend to watch illegally recorded or sexually exploited material, as it may be stored on your mobile phone without your knowledge.” He added, “For similar reasons. “If you have been wrongfully accused, you need to prove that you are not guilty through a legal expert with experience in related cases,” he advised. Daeryun Law Firm, which provided assistance, has a dedicated sex crime team with criminal lawyers certified by the Korean Bar Association and provides legal assistance in cases related to sexual crimes such as quasi-forcible molestation, quasi-rape, forcible molestation, rape, and filming using cameras.

Regarding this, experts say that one must be cautious because proceeding with a lawsuit without sufficient legal knowledge can lead to unfavorable results due to information asymmetry. In particular, in the case of civil rather than criminal cases or family cases such as inheritance and divorce lawsuits, the parties to the lawsuit may lead the lawsuit alone on the grounds that it is a personal matter, but in the trial, the case is judged based on the evidence presented by each party, so each piece of paper submitted to the court and each statement made during the argument date has a significant impact. Daeryun Shim Jae-guk Law Firm A Seocho divorce lawyer said, "Ordinary people often go through trial and error because they are not familiar with the litigation process. They may not be able to properly convey what they wanted to the court, or they may get caught up in the other side's arguments, so the first trial judgment may be less than expected, or the judgment may be taken in a completely unexpected direction. If you proceed prematurely and lose, you have to bear the other party's litigation costs, so there are many difficulties in litigating alone." He continued, “There are many cases where you ask for help during a lawsuit or find a professional lawyer after the first trial ruling to inquire about the appeal, but if you have received an unfavorable first trial ruling, the priority would be to reinforce the issues that were omitted or lacking in the first trial.” He added, “In order to overturn the original trial result and win, you need to analyze the cause of the loss, and in the case of civil or domestic cases such as inheritance or divorce, you must appeal within two weeks from the time the judgment is delivered, so you need to be careful about the time period.” Advised. Experts explain that divorce lawsuits involve many issues such as alimony, property division, and custody, so solo lawsuits are relatively lacking in legal mechanisms. For example, if the other party hides or disposes of property while a lawsuit is in progress, smooth division of property becomes difficult. To prevent this, the other party's property may be preserved through provisional seizure or injunction. These devices are necessary to ensure that the judgment is paid quickly and smoothly after the end of the lawsuit or to divide divorce property. Attorney Shim said, “As the outcome of a divorce lawsuit is closely related to life after divorce, the lawsuit must be proceeded by combining economic issues such as alimony and property division, and child-related issues such as parental rights, custody, and child support.” “I recommend that you decide on the overall direction of the lawsuit and prepare with the help of a divorce lawyer,” he advised. Daeryun Law Firm, which provided assistance, currently has divorce lawyers providing legal assistance on divorce property division, alimony, claims for incestuous incest, and child custody. There are offices in Seoul, Busan, Daegu, Incheon, Gwangju, Daejeon, Ulsan, Suwon, Changwon, Cheongju, Jeonju, Uijeongbu, Chuncheon, Jinju, and Jeju, and a Gwangju branch office is scheduled to open in the second half of this year.

Voice phishing not only causes enormous property damage to unspecified people, but also uses 'action measures', which are responsible for collecting, withdrawing, remitting, and delivering damages essential for actual crime, as a tool for crime, and completely unrelated people are instantly reduced to voice phishing participants, so special caution is required. It is necessary. According to the legal community, a defendant who was recently charged with a voice phishing scheme was acquitted. In the meantime, it has been a common trend for voice phishing to be punished for 'acts of action' as they are clearly considered crimes such as 'aiding and abetting fraud', 'fraud', and 'violation of the Electronic Financial Transactions Act', so this acquittal is attracting attention. The defendant joined the company after seeing a job advertisement on an online recruitment site. Afterwards, I was in charge of loan collection and spent three days collecting loans from customers and depositing them into the company's account. However, these customers were victims of voice phishing fraud, and the client was arrested following the victim's report. In fact, the company was a shell company created by a voice phishing group. Seocho criminal lawyer Shim Jae-guk, who defended the defendant, said, "Through an interview with the client, who was imprisoned in a detention center at the time, we were able to confirm the facts and find several circumstances that did not allow us to say that we knew of the voice phishing group's crimes. Our client claimed innocence based on the fact that there were several circumstances showing that he had no intention to commit fraud, and the court accepted this and was declared not guilty." Attorney Shim said, "If you are involved in a charge of participating in voice phishing, you should give up the idea that this acquittal will apply to your case as well," and added, "There are many variables depending on the case, such as the period of the crime, the number of times, the content, and the scale of the damage. In addition, there are cases where people are involved unfairly, while there are also cases where people participate in the crime to obtain financial gain even though they are aware of the crime. If they had even the slightest knowledge of the crime, it is judged that there was criminal intent, so it is not easy to avoid imprisonment even for first-time offenders, so it is sufficient from the investigative stage. “You will need the assistance of a legal expert,” he advised. Daeryun Criminal Law Firm, which provided assistance, operates a criminal team with expertise in various criminal cases, including economic crimes, violent crimes, sex crimes, and traffic crimes. Currently, we have offices in Seoul, Busan, Daegu, Incheon, Gwangju, Daejeon, Ulsan, Suwon, Changwon, Cheongju, Jeonju, Uijeongbu, Chuncheon, Jinju, and Jeju.

In the past, when there was a crime of adultery, it was possible to hold the spouse or other partner who had an affair criminally responsible, but due to the abolition of the crime of adultery, it is interpreted as an attempt to receive financial compensation for psychological damage through civil damages, such as a lawsuit for alimony by an adulterer (incestuous man, incestuous woman), as a punishment for misconduct. Seocho divorce lawyer Shim Jae-guk of the Daeryun Law Firm said, “Sometimes, the defendant who receives the incestuous incest material lawsuit claims the plaintiff. “There are cases in which no legal action is taken even after receiving a complaint, either because they admit it or say they are not guilty,” he said. “In this case, it can be taken as an intention to pay the entire amount of alimony requested by the other party, so even if what the plaintiff claims is different from the facts or admits his or her fault, he or she must respond proactively after receiving the complaint in order to reduce the amount of alimony, etc.” Cases where the person did not know that the other person was married or married ▽ It is common for there to have been an act of cheating and the other party knew that the other person was a married man or a married woman. Regarding this, Attorney Shim said, “If the plaintiff misunderstood even though there was no cheating, the plaintiff’s claim must be dismissed by refuting the evidence presented by the plaintiff. Even if the other party hid the fact that he or she was married, the plaintiff’s claim for damages must be dismissed by proving that the other party did not know whether the other party was married.” “If the other party has announced their intention to divorce or has already claimed the breakdown of the marriage and met, or if there has been cheating and the other party is known to be married, it is better to focus on reducing alimony,” he explained. “Most plaintiffs will request alimony in the range of 30 to 50 million won, but if favorable circumstances are secured by considering the period of cheating and evidence, etc. with a professional legal assistant, a reduction in alimony may be possible.” For reference, If a plaintiff seeking an incestuous incest material lawsuit comes to their workplace or home to vent their anger and embarrass them, commits violence, or discloses their real name online, they may be charged with criminal obstruction of business, defamation, and insult separately from the incestuous incest material lawsuit.

Each local office announced that it will conduct crackdowns at least once a week, including Fridays when many drunk driving deaths occur, at summer resorts, entertainment districts around tourist attractions, highway toll gates, rest areas, and areas with frequent drunk driving accidents. The police also plan to punish those who encourage drunk driving or assist drunk driving by being passengers in a drunk driving vehicle. Drunk driving is punished differently depending on the blood alcohol concentration. The Road Traffic Act stipulates that a person with a blood alcohol concentration of 0.03% or more but less than 0.08% will be subject to imprisonment for up to one year or a fine of up to 5 million won. If it is 0.08% or more but less than 0.2%, you will be punished by imprisonment for not less than 1 year but not more than 2 years or a fine of not less than 5 million won but not more than 10 million won. If it is more than 0.2%, you are subject to imprisonment of not less than 2 years but not more than 5 years or a fine of not less than 10 million won but not more than 20 million won. Cases punished for aiding and abetting drunk driving include: ▽ Holding the car keys while knowing that you will drink and drive. Representative cases include: ▽ riding in a vehicle with a drunk driver; ▽ selling alcohol in an area where designated driving is difficult; ▽ encouraging or recommending drunk driving. If the charge is acknowledged, you can be sentenced to up to 1 year and 6 months in prison or a fine of up to 5 million won in the case of simple aiding, and in the case of active encouragement, you can be punished by up to 3 years in prison or a fine of up to 10 million won. Seocho criminal lawyer Shim Jae-guk of Daeryun Law Firm said, “Drunk driving is a crime that can take the life of innocent others if you do it wrong, so you should never get behind the wheel if you have been drinking, but in various situations, drunk driving is a crime. “If you are caught or have caused an accident, it is important to minimize the damage,” he said. “If you are caught on suspicion of drunk driving, you must receive legal assistance from the beginning of the case and deal with it according to the severity of the case. It may be expedient to secure sentencing and mitigating factors as much as possible after determining the facts such as the circumstances of the driving, location, time, and distance of the drunk driving.” He continued, “Even if you become a victim of a drunk driving traffic accident, legal assistance is necessary if the drunk driving accident resulted in injury or death. In the case of a hit-and-run, etc., it will not be easy to receive compensation just by reporting it,” he advised. “There are many issues in the process of settlement with the perpetrator as well as statements and submissions of evidence to prove the damage from drunk driving, so it is necessary to fully utilize expert assistance to recover the damage.” Daeryun Law Firm, which provided assistance, currently provides assistance in Seoul, Busan, Daegu, Incheon, Gwangju, Daejeon, Ulsan, Suwon, Changwon, Cheongju, Jeonju, Uijeongbu, and Uijeongbu.

According to criminal lawyer Daeryun (Seocho), who was the suspect's lawyer, "The suspect who was accused of rape and forcible molestation in his vehicle and at the complainant's home at the time was in a romantic relationship with the complainant." In particular, he argued, “It was important to impeach the credibility of the plaintiff’s statement through the attorney’s opinion, which revealed contradictions such as the content of phone calls and text messages before and after the incident.” He explained, “In the end, the prosecution accepted this argument and decided not to indict the client without charges (insufficient evidence).” Under criminal law, forcible harassment, commonly known as sexual harassment, involves physical contact without the other person’s consent by using tangible force such as assault or threats. It's a crime. The punishment for forcible molestation is imprisonment for not more than 10 years or a fine not exceeding 15 million won, and the punishment for rape, which is committing adultery with another person through assault or intimidation, is punishment for a limited term of imprisonment of not less than 3 years. Depending on the punishment, such sex crimes may be subject to severe security measures such as registration of personal information, disclosure and notification of personal information, employment restrictions, and attachment of electronic location tracking devices (electronic anklets). In addition, if information about the case becomes known to those around you during the investigation, work life or personal relationships may become difficult, regardless of whether there are actual charges. Regarding this, criminal lawyer Daeryun (Seocho) Law Firm said, “The severity of punishment for sex crimes is increasing as social and national public awareness of sex crimes has increased due to the recent N-room incident. If you are involved in a sex crime charge, if you feel the slightest sense of injustice, you should request legal assistance without delay.” “As the victim's statement acts as key evidence in the case, it is important for the suspect or defendant to collect data that can question the credibility of the victim's statement and to have a lawyer's opinion written.” He continued, “If you appoint a lawyer during the process of being investigated by an investigative agency, you can prevent unfavorable testimony and you can avoid unfair charges and get a non-indictment, so you should appoint a criminal lawyer early in the case and make efforts to be acquitted or acquitted.” Law firm advised. Daeryun is a national network law firm with offices in Seoul, Busan, Daegu, Incheon, Gwangju, Daejeon, Ulsan, Suwon, Changwon, Cheongju, Jeonju, Uijeongbu, Chuncheon, Jinju, and Jeju.

The previous sentence before the presumption of trial was 6 months in prison, but the prosecution said, "Considering the recent situation that requires strengthened punishment for sexual crimes, we requested a one-year prison sentence, disclosure of personal information, three years of restriction on employment at institutions related to children, youth, and the disabled, and completion of a sexual assault treatment program." Crime is increasing every year. According to the ‘2020 Sexual Crime White Paper’ published by the Ministry of Justice, illegal filming crimes using smartphones increased 5.8 times from 412 in 2013 to 2,388 in 2018. In particular, the rate of repeat offenses that follow the same sex crime methods of the past reached 75%. From ultra-small cameras attached to buttons or glasses to cameras attached to lighters, illegal filming methods are also becoming more sophisticated. Accordingly, each local government is cracking down on illegally installed ultra-small cameras in multi-use facilities such as public restrooms. Seocho criminal lawyer Shim Jae-guk of the Daeryun Law Firm said, “The attitude of investigative authorities has become very strict due to the succession of crimes and the resulting damage. With the recent revision of the Special Act on Sexual Violence, the level of punishment for filming using cameras (hidden camera crime) has increased from 5 years in prison or a fine of up to 30 million won. “It has been increased to 7 years or a fine of up to 50 million won,” he said. “You must know that filming a sexual video without asking another person’s consent is a serious crime in itself, and that you are subject to punishment just for possessing, purchasing, storing, or watching such video.” He added, “If you are found guilty of a hidden camera crime, you will also be sentenced to various sexual crime security measures such as registration of personal information, public notice, and employment restrictions, which can put you at a great disadvantage in terms of your status. “If you are suspected of illegal filming, you will need the assistance of a criminal lawyer with experience in sexual crime cases from the beginning of the investigation.” Attorney Shim advised, “In particular, when a hidden camera crime is an issue, whether ‘a person’s body that may cause sexual desire or shame’ was filmed may become an issue by comprehensively considering the victim’s clothing and degree of body exposure, the photographer’s intention, the circumstances leading up to the filming, the location, angle and distance of the filming, and sentencing data. “We must respond relatively,” he explained. “Above all, we must convey truthful reflection, agreement with the victim, and the absence of risk of reoffending at the beginning of the investigation, while being careful not to cause secondary damage to the victim during the process.” Daeryun Law Firm, which provided assistance, currently has a nationwide network including Seoul, Busan, Daegu, Incheon, Gwangju, Daejeon, Ulsan, Suwon, Changwon, Cheongju, Jeonju, Uijeongbu, Chuncheon, Jinju, and Jeju.

Divorce lawyer Shim Jae-guk of Daeryun Law Firm, who represented the client in the lawsuit requesting incest, said, "At the time, the client was complaining of serious psychological trauma after learning that not only the husband's affair, but also the affair partners were mother and daughter." He said, “We obtained text messages and recorded files containing the content of the adulterers admitting their misconduct, and logically proved the causal relationship for the psychological shock suffered by the client to receive compensation for damages.” As in this case, generally, if a spouse cheats, a lawsuit for alimony can be filed against the adulterer. Since the method of criminal punishment for adultery has disappeared with the abolition of the law of adultery, the incestuous incest data claim lawsuit is a way to claim damages equivalent to alimony through a civil lawsuit against the incestuous woman and the incestuous man. According to the legal community, depending on how the incestuous incest data claim lawsuit is conducted, different results may be obtained regarding the amount of alimony or whether or not the case will be successful, so it is important to receive assistance from an expert from the early stage. Attorney Shim explains. “Collection of evidence is essential in lawsuits requesting commercial incest data. If an individual collects evidence without the advice of a lawyer, he or she may unintentionally commit illegal acts such as home invasion, violation of the Communications Secrets Protection Act, and violation of the Credit Information Act,” he said. “Also, depending on how the proceeding is conducted, different results may be obtained regarding the amount of alimony or whether or not the case will be won, so it is better to receive expert assistance from the early stages.” He continued, “In the case of incestuous litigation, one party may become embroiled in the case due to a misunderstanding by one party. In many cases, if you continue to fail to respond when you have been falsely accused, you need to be careful because there is a high possibility that the other party will accept the claim as an intention to pay the entire amount of alimony,” he said. “If what the plaintiff claims is different from the facts, you should be able to refute the misunderstanding with evidence and defense, and if you continued to date after knowing that the other party was married, it is advisable to respond by focusing on reducing the amount of alimony.” The law firm that provided assistance provided assistance.

Divorce lawyer Shim Jae-guk of Daeryun Law Firm, who represented the client in the lawsuit requesting incest, said, "At the time, the client was complaining of serious psychological trauma after learning that not only the husband's affair, but also the affair partners were mother and daughter." He said, “We obtained text messages and recorded files containing the content of the adulterers admitting their misconduct, and logically proved the causal relationship for the psychological shock suffered by the client to receive compensation for damages.” As in this case, generally, if a spouse cheats, a lawsuit for alimony can be filed against the adulterer. Since the method of criminal punishment for adultery has disappeared with the abolition of the law of adultery, the incestuous incest data claim lawsuit is a way to claim damages equivalent to alimony through a civil lawsuit against the incestuous woman and the incestuous man. According to the legal community, depending on how the incestuous incest data claim lawsuit is conducted, different results may be obtained regarding the amount of alimony or whether or not the case will be successful, so it is important to receive assistance from an expert from the early stage. Attorney Shim explains. “Collection of evidence is essential in lawsuits requesting commercial incest data. If an individual collects evidence without the advice of a lawyer, he or she may unintentionally commit illegal acts such as home invasion, violation of the Communications Secrets Protection Act, and violation of the Credit Information Act,” he said. “Also, depending on how the proceeding is conducted, different results may be obtained regarding the amount of alimony or whether or not the case will be won, so it is better to receive expert assistance from the early stages.” He continued, “In the case of incestuous litigation, one party may become embroiled in the case due to a misunderstanding by one party. In many cases, if you continue to fail to respond when you have been falsely accused, you need to be careful because there is a high possibility that the other party will accept the claim as an intention to pay the entire amount of alimony,” he said. “If what the plaintiff claims is different from the facts, you should be able to refute the misunderstanding with evidence and defense, and if you continued to date after knowing that the other party was married, it is advisable to respond by focusing on reducing the amount of alimony.” The law firm that provided assistance provided assistance. Daeryun operates a nationwide network of law offices in Seoul, Busan, Daegu, Incheon, Gwangju, Daejeon, Ulsan, Suwon, Changwon, Cheongju, Jeonju, Uijeongbu, Chuncheon, Jinju, and Jeju.

Kim Woong of the United Future Party (Songpa-gu Gap, Seoul), the ‘Policy Debate for Establishing a Law to Eradicate Gender Violence and Murder’ was held at 10 am on Friday, July 3, in the first seminar room of the National Assembly Building. In his opening speech, Rep. Kim Woong started by talking about his time as a prosecutor and said, “Although crime in our country has decreased overall, dating violence, stalking, and violence against sexual minorities have increased and worsened into social problems,” and explained the purpose of organizing the policy debate. explained. The discussion began with a keynote presentation by Lee Mi-jeong, a senior researcher at the Korea Women's Policy Institute, and Shim Jae-guk, a representative attorney at Daeryun Law Firm. Next, a panel discussion was held with Kim Han-gyun, a senior researcher at the Korea Institute of Criminology, Jeon Yun-jeong, a legislative investigator at the National Assembly Legislative Research Service, Kim Do-yeon, director of the Korea Dating Violence Research Institute, and Jo Yoon-o, a professor at Dongguk University's School of Police and Judiciary. Therefore, due to the perception and prejudice that sexual violence and assault are premised on consent, there are some cases that end in insufficient evidence and non-indictment, so it is necessary to establish victim protection regulations and improve the legal system considering the special characteristics of dating violence.” He continued, “Under the current law, dating violence is not specified as a crime, so it is regulated by special laws such as the Criminal Act and the Special Act on Punishment of Sexual Crimes, etc. However, in the case of dating violence, it often occurs habitually due to a combination of emotional, physical, and sexual abuse. “There are many cases that are difficult to accept under the current law,” he said. “It is necessary to establish regulations that specify the meaning and scope of dating violence, establish a complex relationship with the crime, and review aggravated punishment.” He also said, “In terms of dating violence and victim protection, even if an application for injunction, which is a civil procedure, takes at least two months, damage relief is delayed and effectiveness is somewhat lacking.” Victim protection regulations are needed,” he added. Meanwhile, Jae-guk Shim, CEO of Daeryun Law Firm (Seocho-gu, Seoul), who attended the policy debate as a presenter, is a criminal lawyer and divorce lawyer certified by the Korean Bar Association and provides customized legal services to clients for various criminal cases such as dating violence, sex crimes, and domestic violence crimes.

According to the legal community, Mr. A was accused of forcibly molesting the victim against her will by forcibly touching her body parts after having a drink with Mr. B, who worked as a bar employee, and the conflict between the claims between Mr. A and the victim became a hot topic. At the time, the suspect's lawyer, Daeryun Law Firm's Sex Crimes Special Team, became a hot topic. A Busan criminal lawyer said, "This case was a case in which there was no evidence such as CCTV other than the victim's statement. During the police investigation, while the suspect's statement was consistent, the victim's statement was noted to be inconsistent." He added, "The witness' statement is consistent with the suspect's statement, the fact that the victim and the suspect maintained a close relationship by exchanging text messages after the incident, and the other party's words and actions that did not appear to be the victim's actions, pointed out contradictions in the statement and resulted in a non-indictment. He said, “Due to the nature of sexual crimes, like in this case, there are many cases where charges have to be contested based solely on the statements of the person involved without objective evidence. If you do not properly know the requirements for establishing a forcible molestation crime, you may be put in a disadvantageous position.” He added, “Even if there was no physical contact, in some cases, charges such as forcible molestation under the Sexual Assault Act, and molestation of a minor under the Sexual Offenses Act may be applied, and if a person is found guilty, they are stigmatized as a criminal. He added, “If you are wrongfully implicated in a case, you will also be sentenced to security measures for sexual crimes, such as registration of personal information and employment restrictions.” Regarding settlement, “When suspected of forcible harassment, there are many cases where people rush to reach an agreement with the victim out of fear of punishment or concern that the incident will become known, so offering a settlement to the victim in a situation where the charges are not clear can mean admitting the charges, so caution is necessary. “If the allegations are different from the facts, you must respond carefully to avoid unnecessary disadvantages,” he emphasized. Meanwhile, Busan criminal lawyers from Daeryun Law Firm’s sex crimes team provide legal services on criminal cases such as sex crimes, violent crimes, traffic crimes, and economic crimes at law offices in Seoul, Busan, Daegu, Incheon, Gwangju, Daejeon, Ulsan, Suwon, Changwon, Cheongju, Jeonju, Uijeongbu, Chuncheon, Jinju, and Jeju.

Daeryun Law Firm announced that it hired experienced lawyers (2 people) in the first quarter, followed by hiring an experienced lawyer (1 person) and a trainee lawyer (5 people) in the second quarter. The human resources manager of Daeryun Law Firm said, “In recruiting new lawyers at Daeryun Law Firm in the second quarter of 2020, He said, “A total of 187 lawyers applied,” and added, “We hope to receive a lot of interest and encouragement from Daeryun Law Firm in the future by recruiting diverse talent.” Regarding the manpower management plan, he said, “Starting on the 8th, trainee lawyers who were selected will complete 1:1 on-the-job training with senior lawyers at the head office and will be assigned to all branches to work in the Seoul office, which is increasing. “We will respond to the demand for legal services,” he explained. Shim Jae-guk, the representative attorney at Daeryun Law Firm, said, “We are preparing to open new offices in Suwon and Incheon due to the increase in demand for legal services at the Seocho office that opened last year. We plan to open offices sequentially in the second half of this year to disperse customers in the metropolitan area who were concentrated in the existing Seocho office and increase convenience of access.” Meanwhile, Daeryun Law Firm has offices in Seoul, Busan, Daegu, Incheon, Gwangju, Daejeon, We operate offices in Ulsan, Suwon, Changwon, Cheongju, Jeonju, Uijeongbu, Chuncheon, Jinju, and Jeju.

In particular, as the economy of the common people is in crisis these days due to COVID-19, investors are recruited with the lure of high profits, and investment money and land purchase money are intercepted, including cases of retired pensioners and small investors. There are various cases of damage, such as the way some brokerage firms exploit this to approach people with surplus funds and recommend them to buy shares. According to a criminal lawyer from the Daeryun Planning and Real Estate TF Team at the law firm, “The proliferation of planned real estate and speculative share transactions that encourage development expectations and speculation are rampant. The methods are becoming more sophisticated day by day, including field visits with actual real estate agents,” and in particular, “Just trusting the word of the company without any relevant knowledge.” He said, "It is very risky to make an investment, and you must carefully check the possibility of development using the land ledger, registration copy, land use plan confirmation center, land use regulation information service, etc." He continued, "Early this year, the management of the country's largest planned real estate company was sentenced to prison on fraud charges, raising the possibility that similar cases will be found to be fraudulent in the future. However, even if the fraud charge is acknowledged, the victims' losses will not be restored." “If it is recognized that it was a fraud, you can cancel it and claim damages through a civil lawsuit or recover the invested amount by filing a lawsuit to claim the return of the investment, so if you have suffered fraud damage, it is important to reduce the damage to some extent with the help of a professional lawyer.” In addition, there is a possibility of being involved in a crime due to a new type of multi-level planning real estate fraud. “Companies purchase large quantities of vacant land and forest land with no development benefit, then divide the shares into small pieces, distribute the allocation to branches across the country, and sell the shares by brainwashing and training internal employees and counselors,” he said. “Investors who have been persuaded by them and bought the land may end up deceiving each other by introducing the land to other people, so there is a possibility of being involved in a crime without even knowing it.” He also said, “We attracted investment money after sufficient review and expected profits. He added, “If you are suspected of planning real estate fraud, you will need the assistance of a legal expert to prove your innocence, such as justifying your actions with a lawyer.” Daeryun Law Firm, which provided assistance, currently has offices in Seoul, Busan, Daegu, Incheon, Gwangju, Daejeon, Ulsan, Suwon, Changwon, Cheongju, Jeonju, Uijeongbu, Chuncheon, Jinju, and Jeju, and the Planning Real Estate TF team is located in the Planning Real Estate TF team. In relation to fraud cases, we provide legal assistance in cases such as violations of the Special Police Act, false and exaggerated advertisements, forgery of private documents, cancellation of fraudulent acts, claims for division of shared property, sales lawsuits, and lease lawsuits.

According to the National Court Administration, the number of lawsuits for return of retained earnings filed in family courts across the country last year increased significantly from 452 cases based on the first trial filing at the National District Court in 2010 to 1,511 cases last year. Experts believe that this is because the generation of industrial workers who built their wealth in the 1960s to 1980s died of old age, and the absolute level of wealth that their children could compete for was met. In relation to this, we heard about a lawsuit requesting the return of oil reserves through the Daeryun Inheritance Team at Law Firm. Q. Please explain the amount of oil.A. Reserved portion refers to a part of inherited property legally reserved for the heir. If there is a gift or bequest that violates this, the right to one's inheritance is claimed against the donee (another heir who inherited the property). For example, when a father writes a will saying, “I will pass on all my property to my eldest son,” this is a legal inheritance share that the remaining children can be guaranteed. At this time, the claim for return of the reserved portion must be made within 10 years from the date of commencement of inheritance (death) and within 1 year from the time the fact of the returned legacy was known.Q. What happens to the person with the right to claim the return of the reserved portion?A. The rights holders of the reserved distribution system are the existing legal inheritance rights, excluding collateral blood relatives within the fourth degree of consanguinity, and are in that order: lineal descendants, spouse, lineal ascendants, and siblings. The reserved portion also has rights only if there is no priority right of inheritance, so if there are lineal descendants and spouses, the lineal ascendants and siblings are not recognized as having the right to claim return of the reserved portion.Q. In the case of a fetus, can reserved portion be recognized? A. The fetus is considered already born in terms of inheritance under civil law. Therefore, the fetus also has the status of an heir in inheritance. If the presumptive heir who died before the start of inheritance has direct descendants, the fetus is also recognized as the 'right to succession by inheritance' or the right to a bequest or reserved portion to receive the inheritance on behalf of the deceased heir. However, these rights recognized by the fetus can only be acquired when the fetus is born alive, and the rights that the fetus had only when born alive are retroactively recognized as having been acquired from the time when the right arose.Q. How are the oil percentage and amount calculated? A. For lineal descendants and spouses, it is 1/2 of the legal inheritance, and for lineal ascendants and siblings, it is 1/3 of the legal inheritance. To calculate the reserved portion, the deceased's inherited property must first be determined. The method of calculating the amount of inherited property is to add the value of property gifted to a third party within one year before the start of inheritance to the combined value of the property and debts owned by the deceased. Based on this, the reserved portion of the legal heirs can be obtained and the corresponding amount can be claimed from the bequeathed person.Q. If inherited property is distributed unequally, the action is A. In order to guarantee legal inheritance, a legal approach must be taken and the individual concerned must step forward. Since many dispute elements are involved in the division of inherited property, such as retention, contribution, limited approval, and renunciation of inheritance, it is necessary to carefully check what needs to be prepared before the statute of limitations under the relevant laws. In particular, in the case of retained assets, it is necessary to have sufficient discussions with a family law lawyer before filing a lawsuit requesting return, confirm whether there is any benefit to the lawsuit, and then settle the dispute as soon as possible. The Daeryun Inheritance Team has a nationwide network and operates offices in Seoul, Busan, Daegu, Incheon, Gwangju, Daejeon, Ulsan, Suwon, Changwon, Cheongju, Jeonju, Uijeongbu, Chuncheon, Jinju, and Jeju. We provide legal assistance in the field of inheritance, including division of inherited assets and contributions, claims for return of retained shares, claims for inheritance recovery, limited approval, and inheritance relinquishment issues, focusing on family affairs lawyers certified by the Korean Bar Association.

In relation to this, as the cash flow of individuals and companies decreases, conflicts between debtors and creditors due to financial transactions, regardless of the amount such as product price, sales price, or rental amount, are increasing. According to Daeryun Law Firm's Debt Dispute Team, inquiries related to debt collection are increasing compared to last year, such as 'I lent money, but the money is not repaid,' 'I did construction work, but the construction price is not paid,' 'I purchased materials, but the material price is not paid,' 'I purchased the goods, but I did not pay.' He explained that a variety of problems are arising in conjunction with the difficult economic situation, such as 'don't pay for the goods'. A lawyer from Daeryun Law Firm's Debt Dispute Team said, "It is a chronic problem that the other party in a financial conflict usually just says that they cannot give because they do not have the money. It would be good if we could come to a good agreement with both parties, such as agreeing to receive the loan, payment, etc. in installments, but in reality, it is not easy. First, apply for a payment order to the other party, investigate whether the debtor has assets, and then check if the debtor has any assets. “There is a way to recover the debt through compulsory execution through civil procedures in parallel with a civil lawsuit and a preservation disposition such as provisional seizure,” he said. “However, the other party who is concerned about the civil lawsuit may escape the obligation to repay the money by concealing the property, reorganizing it, or filing for bankruptcy. Therefore, if you can prove the act of deception, it is also possible to file a complaint for fraud under the criminal law.” “Because the possibility cannot be ruled out, there are cases where a change of stance is made and a request for settlement is required, so not only simple civil and criminal litigation but also careful legal analysis from various angles is required to receive unpaid money.” Meanwhile, Daeryun Law Firm’s Debt Dispute Team has offices in Seoul, Busan, Daegu, Incheon, Gwangju, Daejeon, Ulsan, Suwon, Changwon, Cheongju, Jeonju, Uijeongbu, Chuncheon, Jinju, and Jeju. We provide comprehensive legal services ranging from settlements other than lawsuits to civil and criminal matters in relation to loans, construction and material costs, investment recovery, unjust enrichment, repayment and return of lease deposits, and debt collection.

According to the National Police Agency, the number of deaths due to drunk driving between January and March of this year increased for the first time in five years. Among them, 4,101 accidents occurred due to drunk driving, resulting in 79 deaths. Compared to the same period last year, the number of drunk driving accidents increased by 24.4% and the number of deaths due to drunk driving increased by 6.8%. According to the legal community, the demand for a criminal lawyer for drunk driving charges is also increasing recently. This is because the punishment standards for drunk driving have been strengthened since the revision of the Road Traffic Act, making it difficult to end with a summary order in case of a repeat drunk driving offense, and in many cases a prison sentence of two years or more is imposed. Criminal lawyer Shim Jae-guk of the Daeryun Law Firm said, “With the revision of the Road Traffic Act, the standards for drunk driving crackdowns have also been strengthened. Currently, if the blood alcohol concentration is 0.03% or higher, the license can be suspended, and if the blood alcohol concentration is 0.08% or higher, the license can be revoked.” “Blood alcohol concentration of 0.03% is a level measured about an hour after drinking one glass of soju. If you get behind the wheel thinking, ‘Wouldn’t this be okay?’ from the beginning, you can lose everything in an instant, so you need to be especially careful,” he advised. You should also be careful if you cause a traffic accident while drunk driving, as this can also lead to severe punishment. In particular, if you run away from the scene of an accident without taking any action to avoid punishment for drunk driving, you are often arrested at the investigation stage and can receive strong criminal punishment. Attorney Shim said, "When you are caught drunk driving or in a drunken accident, there is clear physical evidence such as blood alcohol concentration level, so it is meaningless to deny the charge or show only an attitude of remorse by vaguely appealing to emotions. In this case, on the contrary, there is a possibility that the crime is judged to be bad and a heavier sentence may be imposed." He explained, "Ascertain the facts." He advised, “We will need legal assistance that can lead to leniency by actively advocating sentencing and mitigating factors such as drunk driving distance, drunk driving history, trigger, vehicle disposal, efforts to prevent recidivism, and agreement with the victim.” Meanwhile, Daeryun Law Firm has offices in Seoul, Busan, Daegu, Incheon, Gwangju, Daejeon, Ulsan, Suwon, Changwon, Cheongju, Jeonju, Uijeongbu, Chuncheon, Jinju, and Jeju, and provides legal assistance for drunk driving and traffic accidents.

In 2017, male A stayed at a motel while drinking with B, a minor at the time. Afterwards, Mr. B suddenly called Mr. C (27 years old) and asked for help, saying that he had been sexually assaulted. Then, Mr. F (55 years old, female), who identified himself as Mr. B's aunt, appeared and asked Mr. A for sexual assault settlement money. However, Mr. A refused, and Mr. B filed a complaint, saying, “I was molested while drunk and unconscious.” Mr. A complained of injustice to the investigative agency, but was unable to prove his innocence and was sent to trial on charges of quasi-forcible molestation. The trial was prolonged due to the conflicting claims of both sides. According to the prosecution, Mr. B's group was caught in the act of systematic crime during the resurgence investigation, and five members of their group were indicted on the 7th. In addition, we plan to cancel the indictment for semi-forcible molestation of the victim who is on trial for their false accusation. Regarding similar cases, criminal lawyer Shim Jae-guk of Daeryun Law Firm said, “We have proven the innocence of our client who was accused of semi-forcible molestation.” He added, “The client was indicted on charges of quasi-forcible molestation after drinking with a friend’s acquaintance until dawn and then moving to a motel with them and attempting to sexually assault them (quasi-forcible molestation). The client has sparse memories of the time. He explained, “He was very confused by the situation,” and “The persistent finding of contradictions by comparing the victim's statement, the secured CCTV footage, and the DNA test results was important in proving his innocence.” Attorney Shim said, “In the case of semi-forcible molestation that occurs while drinking, the suspect is often as drunk as the victim, so there are many cases where the suspect is unfairly charged.” “If you are accused, you need to clearly assess the situation at the time and respond with the help of a lawyer.” He also advised, “Many sexual crime cases, such as semi-forcible molestation, do not simply end in criminal punishment if found guilty. In the case of quasi-forcible molestation, the offender is subject to imprisonment for up to 10 years or a fine of 15 million won, and if a person is found guilty and is subject to a security measure, he or she may not be able to get a job for a long time or his/her personal information will be made known through online sites and mail notices. “There are overall social restrictions,” he said, adding, “If you are involved in a case of quasi-forcible molestation, you must discuss with a sexual harassment lawyer and respond thoroughly from the beginning of the case to prevent the possibility of excessive punishment.” Meanwhile, Daeryun Law Firm operates a sex crimes team with criminal lawyers certified by the Korean Bar Association and provides assistance in various sexual crime cases such as quasi-forcible molestation, quasi-rape, forcible molestation, rape, and filming using cameras.

As can be seen through the drama ‘The World of the Married,’ divorced families continue to engage in fierce legal battles while facing complex situations and problems. According to a divorce lawyer (Daeryun Law Firm), in the case of real divorced families, incidents that can be much more provocative than those in dramas occur, and the legal response to infidelity has also changed since the abolition of the adultery law. Divorce lawyer Shim Jae-guk of the Daeryun Law Firm said, “The abolition of the adultery law does not mean that cheating is allowed. Cheating is still considered a cause for marriage breakdown under civil law.” He explained, “You can claim alimony, and you can also claim alimony by holding the adulterer responsible.” In general, in the case of a lawsuit against an adulterer, △ alimony can be claimed from the incestuous person separately from the divorce, △ alimony can be claimed from the incestuous person after divorcing the spouse, and △ alimony can be claimed from both the spouse and the incestuous person at the same time as the divorce lawsuit. At this time, if you are divorced or in the process of divorce proceedings, the family court becomes the competent court, and if you are before divorce, the civil court becomes the competent court. According to a divorce lawyer, in alimony claim lawsuit for an incestuous person, alimony is generally set between 10 million won and up to 30 million won, but the amount can vary depending on the specific case of cheating and the cause of the breakdown of the marriage. However, because the statute of limitations applies to claims for compensation for damages, it is advised that lawsuits must be filed within 3 years from the date of discovery of the cheating or 10 years from the date of the affair. Divorce lawyer Jae-guk Shim said, “In a lawsuit seeking damages for incest, it is most important to reveal that the adulterer or spouse committed an act of misconduct after knowing that he or she was a married man or woman.” He added, “This is an area where relevant legal assistance is required because materials obtained through illegal methods, such as through requests to the National Investigation Agency, have a low probability of being accepted as evidence in court and, conversely, you may be subject to criminal punishment.” Daeryun Law Firm, which has offices in Seocho-gu, Seoul, Busan, Daegu, Incheon, Gwangju, Daejeon, Ulsan, Suwon, Changwon, Cheongju, Jeonju, Uijeongbu, Chuncheon, Jinju, and Jeju, is certified by the Korean Bar Association. Divorce lawyers and family affairs lawyers provide legal assistance on a variety of issues that arise during the divorce process, including divorce, property division, custody and parental rights, and incest and infidelity claims.

Doctor Ji Seon-woo (played by Kim Hee-ae) witnesses the scene of patient Min Hyeon-seo (Shim Eun-woo) being brutally assaulted by her live-in boyfriend and saves her. Min Hyun-seo, who later accused her boyfriend of assault, meets Ji Sun-woo and says, "The teacher was the first person to help me when I was being beaten." However, the number of victims suffering from 'this crime' is increasing day by day. Since it is something between lovers, it can happen when they are in love. It is committed in the name of 'affection'. It is a crime and dating violence. On the 14th, a man in his 20s was arrested for threatening to distribute a sex video to his girlfriend who asked for a breakup. This man also showed cruelty by assaulting his girlfriend's dog with a brick. Earlier in the same month, a teenage man was booked on charges of posting a nude photo of his ex-girlfriend on the front door of his ex-girlfriend's house and threatening her. The man is known to have even called the woman's parents to check if they had seen the photo. According to National Police Agency statistics (2019 Police White Paper) According to the report, the number of reported dating violence is increasing every year. 9,364 cases were reported in 2016, 14,136 cases in 2017, and 18,671 cases in 2018. Of these, 70% of victims were women. The number of people arrested also showed a steady increase. 6,675 people in 2014, 7,692 people in 2015, The number was 8,367 in 2016, 10,303 in 2017, and 10,245 in 2018. Lee Chang-hoon, a professor of police administration at Hannam University, explained, "You could say that dating violence itself has increased, but this is because awareness of dating violence has expanded, and awareness of reporting has increased, leading to higher reporting rates." However, there is still no bill related to preventing and punishing dating violence in Korea that takes into account the characteristics of the crime. I don't have any. Depending on the type, criminal laws such as assault, intimidation, and rape are applied and punished. On the other hand, the UK and the US already have laws related to dating violence. The UK's so-called 'Clare's Law' (domestic violence record disclosure system) was named after a victim who was murdered by her boyfriend in 2009. This is a law that allows disclosure and viewing of a dating partner's history of violence. In the United States, the victim protection system was strengthened by including dating violence in the 'Violence Against Women Act' enacted in 1994. In our National Assembly, in 2017, Democratic Party lawmaker Pyo Chang-won and then-Liberty Korea Party (now United Future Party) lawmaker Shin Bo-ra proposed a law to punish and prevent dating violence, but these bills were not passed. There are also differing opinions in the legal and academic circles regarding the enactment of a separate bill. Kwak Dae-kyung, a professor of police administration at Dongguk University, emphasized, “Regarding problematic behavior (dating violence), an atmosphere should be created in academia, social organizations, and the National Assembly to talk openly about the scope and level of punishment that is considered appropriate and reasonable in our society.” He said, "It appears that more provisions to protect victims should be included in criminal procedures, such as special laws. Dating violence is a problem that is constantly recurring. According to data from the National Police Agency, 51 people died from this crime between 2016 and 2018. Amid the social perception of love fights and a lax legal system, unfortunate victims continue to emerge.

According to the National Court Administration, the number of requests for division of inherited property is increasing every year, with 1,233 cases in 2016, 1,430 cases in 2017, and 1,710 cases in 2018, and the number of requests for return of retained assets also increased by about 4.6 times over the past 10 years, from 295 cases in 2008 to 1,371 cases in 2018. In the event of death, surviving family members become heirs who can inherit the property rights of the deceased. At this time, if there is no will of the deceased, the heirs must reach an agreement among all co-heirs to divide the inherited property through consultation to determine how the inherited property will be distributed. If there was a gift or bequest to the inherited property, the heir who did not inherit can claim his or her share of the other heirs' inherited property and secure a minimum share of the inheritance. According to the Daeryun Law Firm's Inheritance Dispute Team, there are various situations, such as when the heirs fail to reach an agreement, when a specific heir claims his/her contribution and seeks to receive more property divided, or when one of the co-heirs conceals the inherited property in an unreasonable way before the start of inheritance. There are cases where it is difficult to reach an agreement between heirs, so legal assistance is required. There is no statute of limitations for the division of inherited property, and the right to claim the return of the reserved portion must be claimed within 1 year from the date the holder of the reserved inheritance became aware of the commencement and gift of inheritance or the commencement of inheritance and bequest, and within 10 years from the date of commencement of inheritance. A lawyer from the Daeryun Inheritance Dispute Team at Law Firm said, “Disputes that arise when one of the co-heirs steals the inherited property also arises. “There are many cases where the client’s father died and the stepmother, who was a co-heir, donated the real estate before the death of the deceased and insisted on excluding it from the inheritance while the ownership transfer registration was completed.” “At the time, it was discovered that the deceased was incompetent at the time of signing the gift contract, and a lawsuit was filed requesting cancellation of ownership transfer registration, a request for an injunction to prohibit real estate disposal, and a lawsuit requesting return of retained assets to determine the size of the inherited property. “We recalculated and restored the client’s inheritance share and rights,” he explained. “In an inheritance dispute, the key is to accurately determine the size of the inherited property and calculate the degree of violation of one’s rights.” He also advised, “A multi-faceted review and analysis, such as identification of the decedent’s basic property, contributions, special profits of co-heirs, borrowed-name property, etc., has limitations that can be resolved by an individual, so legal assistance is needed.” Daeryun Law Firm, which provided assistance, currently provides assistance. It said it has offices in Seoul, Busan, Daegu, Incheon, Gwangju, Daejeon, Ulsan, Suwon, Changwon, Cheongju, Jeonju, Uijeongbu, Chuncheon, Jinju, and Jeju. The inheritance dispute team explained that it provides professional legal services necessary for inherited property division adjudication, contribution share, reserve share, limited approval of inheritance, renunciation of inheritance, inheritance recovery, will, denial of paternity, inheritance lawsuit, and cancellation of ownership transfer registration.

According to the legal community, voice phishing organizations approach using remote control apps under the pretext of 'low-interest non-face-to-face loans are available', 'enter your account number and password to receive emergency disaster relief funds', and 'your account is used as a cannon account and a phone investigation is required'. There is a growing number of victims who encourage users to install mobile banking and then extort balance by accessing mobile banking. In particular, methods are becoming more sophisticated by the day, such as using account information for new voice phishing to turn victims into criminal participants. Voice phishing is classified as a serious crime with great social and economic damage, and the punishment standards are strict. Those who lead the crime can be sentenced to 10 years in prison, intermediate participants such as call center managers can be sentenced to 7 years in prison, and simple participants such as bank account recruiters, profit distributors, and withdrawers can be sentenced to 5 years in prison, and aggravated punishment is also possible. In the case of simple participants, there are cases where they are both perpetrators and victims at the same time. According to a criminal lawyer at Daeryun Law Firm, “Voice phishing is a clear case of fraud, and the method and severity are widely known, but when an individual receives a voice phishing text, in most cases, they do not suspect a crime.” He added, “In addition to financial damage, there are also cases where they are accused of being a participant in voice phishing by exposing their bank account or personal transaction information, etc.” “There is a case where a client who received a text message from a person who introduced himself as a loan manager saying that a non-face-to-face loan at a low interest rate was possible provided a check card and password in his name as a quick service and his bank account was suspended,” he said. “The client was investigated by the police on charges of aiding and abetting fraud, but with the help of a criminal lawyer, the client claimed innocence, and the case was concluded with a no-charge and non-indictment disposition.” The criminal lawyer explained. “As in this case, when you are accused of participating in voice phishing, investigative agencies often respond unfavorably to you due to the embarrassment of being involved in the case. In many cases, the initial response leads to a judgment, so if you find yourself in a related situation, it is necessary to find a professional lawyer who can provide legal assistance related to voice phishing.” Advised.

According to the legal community, the 'reverse rental crisis' is occurring due to the decline in housing prices, and the number of situations in which tenants are unable to receive their rental deposits back from landlords is increasing. A lawyer from Daeryun Law Firm's real estate team said, "Recently, due to the overlapping impact of social issues such as COVID-19, it has become difficult for landlords to raise funds, and the damage suffered by tenants is increasing due to non-return of deposits." He added, "In order to return deposits and deposits at the end of the contract, a careful review of the law will be necessary before signing the lease." “The right to priority repayment is a means of receiving repayment of the deposit with priority over the secured creditor who has established a lien, mortgage, provisional seizure, etc. on the property in priority,” he said. He then explained, “The debt relationship between the landlord and tenant must be officially confirmed by clearly stating the intention to terminate the lease contract through proof of contents at least one month before the expiration of the contract.” Generally, methods to return the rental deposit include sending a certificate of contents, applying for a lease registration order, applying for a payment order, filing a lawsuit requesting the return of the rental deposit, and forced auction. Among these, △When applying for a lease registration order, you can keep the deposit because you can maintain the right to preferential repayment even if you move. △Applications for payment orders can be judged solely upon the tenant's application, and if no objections are filed within two weeks of the payment order, compulsory execution such as seizure or auction may be used. △You can recover the deposit and deposit through a lawsuit requesting the return of the rental deposit. Experts explain that if you win, you can charge the landlord for legal fees, including rent, interest on delay, and attorney fees, so you can proceed without financial burden. If the amount to be refunded is less than 30 million won, you can get a judgment in a short period of time under the Small Claims Trial Act. In addition, a lawyer from the real estate team said, "In the case of real estate disputes, including lawsuits for the return of deposits, legal rights are complex. Finding a legal assistant who can effectively utilize various legal means will be a great help in resolving the problem." Meanwhile, Daeryun Law Firm focuses on its office in Seocho-gu, Seoul (Seocho-dong) and works in the metropolitan area and Busan, Daegu, Incheon, Gwangju, Daejeon, Ulsan, Suwon, Changwon, Cheongju, Jeonju, Uijeongbu, Chuncheon, Jinju, In the Jeju area, we provide legal services in the field of construction and real estate, including return of real estate (house, commercial) rental deposits, lawsuits related to redevelopment and reconstruction, and local housing lawsuits.

According to the legal community, the police have booked Mr. A on charges of violating the Special Act on Sexual Violence and are investigating. Mr. A is accused of putting a nude photo of B on the front door of B's ​​house when his girlfriend B notified him of the breakup, and also leaving the photos in mailboxes and delivery boxes. It is known that Mr. A even called B's parents to check if they had seen the photo.Dating violence includes not only physical acts but also non-physical acts of controlling and monitoring a lover. In particular, experts explain that there are sexual types such as forcing sex or refusing to use contraceptives, emotional types such as shaming cycles and threats of suicide and self-harm, and behavioral restrictions and economic violence that prevent people from seeing family or friends. Recently, there has been an increasing trend in the damage caused by forced filming of sex videos. According to criminal lawyer Jae-guk Shim of Daeryun Law Firm, “In a similar case, a client who was living with her lover asked for help due to dating violence that occurred over a period of about five months.” He added, “The issues were serious, including cell phone surveillance, collar grabbing, pushing, assault, threats with kitchen knives, sexual abuse, and threats to film and distribute videos. Sexual abuse, assault, verbal abuse, filming using cameras, etc. He said, "I represented him in a criminal case on suspicion, and the possibility of retaliatory approaches was high, so I applied for a restraining order." He continued, "Dating violence is becoming a social problem, but many couples still do not recognize it as a crime, so it is not easy to prevent damage." He added, "If you are a victim of assault or sexual crime due to dating violence, you need to immediately consult with a criminal lawyer with experience in sex crimes and take legal action." He also advised, "The unfortunate thing is. The fact is that dating violence does not end once and occurs several times over a long period of time. We should no longer judge dating violence cases piecemeal and uniformly,” he said. “We need to collect evidence on the damage and respond from a variety of civil and criminal aspects, including applications for injunctions, compensation for damages, and charges of violation of special laws on punishment of assault and sexual violence crimes.” Meanwhile, Daeryun Law Firm has jurisdictions in Seocho-dong, Seocho-gu, Seoul, Busan, Daegu, Incheon, and Gwangju.

According to the data released by the Korea Federation of Small and Medium Businesses, the economic outlook index is at an all-time low since the start of all-industry statistics in 2014, and the survey also showed difficulties related to management damage and crisis. According to the same data, 64.1% of small and medium-sized businesses responded that management damage was severe due to the COVID-19 incident. In addition, 36.9% answered that the period they can endure if the current economic situation continues is 1 to 3 months, and 28% answered 3 to 6 months, foreshadowing the seriousness of the economic crisis caused by COVID-19. A lawyer from the corporate legal team of Daeryun Law Firm, which is in charge of corporate consulting and legal advice, said, “Recently, inquiries about corporate rehabilitation and corporate bankruptcy of companies with poor financial conditions are increasing after COVID-19.” “It is a field that requires careful judgment as we must carefully consider the pros and cons of each process and come up with an appropriate method,” he said. The corporate rehabilitation system adjusts the legal relationships of stakeholders such as creditors, shareholders, and equity holders for debtors who are experiencing a crisis due to financial difficulties. According to the legal community, it is possible to maintain existing management rights and major shareholders' rights even after going through rehabilitation procedures in the event of a temporary liquidity crisis and to promote efficient rehabilitation of debtors and businesses. On the other hand, the corporate bankruptcy system is a procedure in which a corporation is unable to repay its debts with its own assets, so the court declares bankruptcy, cashes in the corporation's assets, and distributes them to creditors according to the priority of rights and amount of claims. In particular, when proceeding with bankruptcy proceedings, a chain of legal disputes, such as mandatory execution by creditors or criminal charges due to debt, may arise, so assistance from experts is required. A lawyer from Daeryun Law Firm's corporate legal team said, “Decisions on corporate rehabilitation and corporate bankruptcy must be made in consideration of the corporate survival value and corporate liquidation value.” “It can be considered as a corporate bankruptcy system,” he explained. In addition, “In order to use corporate rehabilitation and bankruptcy as a management strategy for crisis management, appropriate procedures must be carried out through legal experts with long-term know-how and experience in various cases to reduce the damage to the debtor and stakeholders. If the golden time is missed, the situation may worsen and debts may increase, so it is most important to respond early in crisis management.” He advised.

There are a variety of reasons for divorce, such as the couple's values, differences in personality, infidelity, domestic violence, conflict between the in-laws, and conflict over books, and financial issues such as division of assets and child support become issues in divorce litigation. According to Daeryun Law Firm, which currently provides legal services specializing in divorce litigation, alimony is generally set in the tens of millions of won even if the spouse at fault is largely responsible, while in the case of property division, real estate such as apartments, stocks, deposits, insurance money, and automobiles are all included. Property division can be said to be the core of financial disputes in divorce litigation in that it can amount to at least tens to hundreds of millions or even billions of won. Divorce lawyer Shim Jae-guk of Daeryun Law Firm said, “The most important thing to do during the property division process is to confirm the object of property division,” adding, “Divorce lawsuits, property division, and damages claims directly contribute to the quality of life after divorce, so to achieve the desired results, the trial must be focused accurately. “It is important to collect evidence,” he advised. He went on to say, "Both spouses can request division of property regardless of the reason for fault. Since the judgment is made based on proof of contribution to property formation, the help of a divorce lawyer with expertise will be required." Divorce lawyer Shim Jae-guk said, "Based on empirical data that allows us to understand the legal principles and precedents of court divorce trials over the past 10 years, Daeryun handles divorce claims as well as overall issues such as alimony, property division, and child custody and custody issues." “We have a dedicated divorce team to present a reasonable solution,” he added.

A representative example of a contract being canceled by a third party after a real estate transaction, but also one that is unfamiliar to the general public, is the issue of ‘cancellation of a contract due to a fraudulent act.’ Under civil law, a fraudulent act refers to a legal act in which a debtor reduces his or her general assets in order to avoid paying debt. A frequently occurring fraudulent act is to conceal, destroy, or transfer property as if it belonged to another person using forms such as selling, donating, providing collateral, or dividing property. In such cases, the creditor may file a lawsuit to cancel the fraudulent act against the beneficiary or previous acquirer in order to recover the property stolen by the debtor pursuant to Article 406 of the Civil Act. At this time, the requirements for establishing a fraudulent act are that the creditor must have a claim, the debtor must perform a legal act of concealing property even with the knowledge that it will harm the creditor, and the debtor's liabilities must be greater than the debtor's assets due to the fraudulent act. Changhee Lee, a civil attorney at Daeryun Law Firm, said, "Creditors must carefully examine the fraudulent act and the requirements for filing a cancellation lawsuit and prepare for the lawsuit. To win, follow the trends of Supreme Court rulings related to fraudulent acts. He advised, “You will need the help of a professional lawyer who understands and has extensive relevant experience,” and added, “A lawsuit for the cancellation of a fraudulent act must be filed within one year from the date of knowledge of the facts or five years from the date of the legal act.” On the other hand, regarding a bona fide transferee involved in a lawsuit for the cancellation of a fraudulent act, “If the party is unfairly subjected to a lawsuit for the cancellation of the fraudulent act, he or she will fall into great confusion and persuade the judiciary with the help of an expert who can logically organize his or her position on the case.” He explained, “The key is to prove that the transferee is a buyer in good faith.” He then emphasized, “We will need to thoroughly prepare evidence regarding the circumstances of the purchase, such as the fact that the transaction was carried out through normal procedures because the seller was not aware of the fact that the debt was exceeded or there were no special circumstances to suspect the transaction.” Meanwhile, attorney Changhee Lee of Daeryun Law Firm is a civil attorney certified by the Korean Bar Association and specializes in real estate-related litigation. We are handling fraudulent act cancellation lawsuits, dividend objection lawsuits, development fee burden lawsuits, etc. Reporter Lim So-ra mail00@asiae.co.kr View original article - https://news.naver.com/main/read.nhn?mode=LSD∣=sec&sid1=101&oid=277&aid=0004655453 2026-05-12T10:53:13.386Z https://www.daeryunlaw.com/en/broadcast/48 There are a variety of issues on which a couple cannot agree upon a divorce, but generally, division of property, alimony for the at-fault spouse, parental rights, custody, and child support of minor children are considered representative dispute elements. Among them, we asked divorce lawyer Shim Jae-guk of Daeryun Law Firm about property division and custody issues, which are subject to sharp disputes. - How should the property division ratio be calculated? The purpose of property division is to liquidate all property acquired by two people during a marriage in proportion to each person's contribution. Therefore, the more contributions are recognized, the more advantageous it is in property division claims. The contribution to property division can be a comprehensive indicator of various situations, such as whether there is a double income, the economic contribution to the property formation process such as investment, the start of the marriage breakdown, and the degree of childcare sharing. After filing a divorce lawsuit, you must go through several processes, such as confirming the other party's assets through a fact-finding application, to calculate the amount of property division and prepare proof of contribution to the property formation process. - How to receive property division If the joint property of the couple is in the name of one spouse, there are cases where the spouse disposes of cash and real estate during the divorce lawsuit. In this case, even if the right to receive money for property division is recognized as a result of the judgment, it may become difficult to receive payment in reality, so there is a way to prevent the other party from disposing of or hiding the property by applying for a provisional seizure of bonds, salaries, severance pay, deposits, and rental deposits held by the spouse before the divorce suit, or a provisional disposition on land and real estate. - Measures to secure custody Custody is the right of parents to decide matters necessary for the upbringing of minor children, and during marriage, the couple jointly decides on such matters. However, in case of divorce, the person with parental authority and custody must be designated. In general, the court determines custody by considering the child's growth and welfare, including the child's age, parents' financial situation, and other circumstances, as well as intimacy with the child and parenting ratio. Once custody is designated, changes to it are rarely accepted, so in order to secure custody, it is necessary to receive assistance from a divorce lawyer from the beginning. - How can the problem of non-payment of child support be resolved? If child support has never been paid, you can apply for a child support enforcement order. If you do not comply with the child support order, you may be subject to a fine of up to 10 million won, and in some cases, you may be sent to a detention center or other detention center. Additionally, if the person who has not paid child support is an office worker, he or she may apply for an order to pay child support directly. A direct payment order is a method of having a person who has not paid child support more than twice have their wages garnished by the company they work for and pay child support directly. Future child support, including past child support, can be received under the concept of pre-disposal, but because the situations vary, it is important to quickly receive expert help and respond appropriately to the situation. Meanwhile, Daeryun Law Firm, headed by divorce lawyer Shim Jae-guk, is a comprehensive law firm with 15 law offices across the country. Currently, in order to protect the rights and interests of clients, we provide legal services and litigation services, including 1:1 direct consulting services through lawyers specializing in divorce, domestic affairs, civil, and criminal fields.

A legal official said, “As regular personnel changes occur in February every year, it is common for the number of bankruptcy and rehabilitation applications to decrease.” “Despite the hiatus, applications for bankruptcy and rehabilitation showed an increase,” he said. Economic experts predict that if COVID-19 continues for a long time, the number of small and medium-sized businesses’ bankruptcies (bankruptcy and rehabilitation) due to the worsening economy will increase further. A corporate legal lawyer at Daeryun Law Firm, who is in charge of legal advice on corporate rehabilitation and bankruptcy, said, “Korea has a bankruptcy system (rehabilitation and bankruptcy) to help corporations and economically active people who are at risk of bankruptcy due to excessive debt. “If you are experiencing difficulties, utilizing social safety nets such as rehabilitation and bankruptcy systems may be a way to do this.” He continued, “If you look at the statistical data, in the past there were many cases where corporate rehabilitation procedures could not be completed and led to bankruptcy, but these days, there are many companies that skip the rehabilitation procedures and choose bankruptcy procedures. The unfortunate thing about the current situation is that even though they can recover through rehabilitation, there are cases where bankruptcy procedures are preceded by various factors.” He added, “Management has become difficult, but “If maintaining the business is more valuable than liquidating it, choosing a rehabilitation system would be a more appropriate alternative,” he advised. “If you are not sure about corporate bankruptcy and corporate rehabilitation, you can seek assistance from a legal expert with field experience and know-how. To this end, you should select a legal advisor after considering whether they have information on corporate-related legal issues and whether they have a system to deal with disputes, and whether they can provide essential advice to the company.” Daeryun Law Firm, which provides ‘customized, one-stop legal services’, has branches throughout Seoul, Busan, Daegu, Incheon, Gwangju, Daejeon, Ulsan, Suwon, Changwon, Cheongju, Jeonju, Uijeongbu, Chuncheon, Jinju, and Jeju. real@heraldcorp.com View original article - https://news.naver.com/main/read.nhn?mode=LSD∣=sec&sid1=101&oid=016&aid=0001654682 2026-05-11T16:45:41.114Z https://www.daeryunlaw.com/en/broadcast/46 Recently, public outrage has arisen as a case of using Telegram to threaten minors and women by filming and distributing pornographic videos of sexual exploitation has been revealed. What kind of punishment will one receive if he or she watches, possesses, or distributes pornographic materials of sexual exploitation? ▲Possession of child and adolescent pornography Child and adolescent pornography refers to pornography that depicts people or objects that can be clearly recognized as children or adolescents engaging in sexual or other sexual acts. refers to pornography Anyone who possesses pornography knowing that it is child or juvenile pornography can be sentenced to up to one year in prison or a fine of up to 20 million won. ▲ Production and distribution of child and adolescent pornography.

Even if you do not show any particular reaction, you may be subject to punishment if your silence specifically aids in the commission of a criminal act. Attorney Shim Jae-guk of the Daeryun Criminal Law Firm, who recently defended a similar case, said, “There are many people who do not recognize that digital sexual violence is a sexual crime, but it is clearly a criminal act.” He added, “It is most important not to commit such a crime and not be involved in the incident.” Since the level of punishment varies greatly depending on the severity, the assistance of a criminal lawyer with extensive relevant experience will be needed from the beginning of the investigation,” he said. “If a sex crime charge is confirmed, various security measures, such as disclosure of personal information and employment restrictions, may be imposed, so it is important to conduct a sufficient legal review of the charges with a lawyer.” Daeryun Law Firm is providing legal services for sex crimes and violent crimes that require expert assistance based on successful cases of criminal cases.

According to Daeryun Law Firm, which was in charge of defending the appeal at the time, “The plaintiff filed a lawsuit for divorce and other lawsuits against her cheating husband through another law firm, but lost in the first trial.” He added, “If the ruling is confirmed as is, she will not be able to divorce and will have to bear the cost of the lawsuit, so we will expedite the appeal hearing.” Daeryun (Seocho) divorce lawyer, who led the lawsuit, said, “In order to overturn the original trial result and win, we internally analyzed the reasons for the loss in the first trial at the law firm level, and in particular, strengthened the purpose of the divorce claim, recalculated the scope of property division and alimony, and focused on collecting evidence to support the purpose of the appeal and proving it during the trial.” In the end, the trial ruled in favor of the plaintiff. The case was ruled in favor of all items, including designation of parental authority and guardian, and child support. Divorce lawyer from Daeryun (Seocho) Law Firm, who led the victory in the second trial, said, “Just because you lost in the first trial does not mean there is no possibility. If you proceed with the appeal trial with the help of an expert with a lot of know-how in resolving disputes with experience of winning many cases, the result could be completely different.” He continued, “If you proceed with the lawsuit hastily and lose, you may have to bear the other party’s litigation costs.” “It is important to appoint a divorce lawyer from the beginning and respond accordingly,” he advised. Meanwhile, Daeryun Law Firm operates a divorce team led by a divorce lawyer and a family law lawyer to resolve divorce litigation issues such as property division claims, alimony, and child custody.

What punishment will you receive if you commit a crime related to COVID-19? - If you refuse a doctor's recommendation for a test and do not follow self-quarantine guidelines, you may be subject to legal punishment. △If you refuse, interfere with, or avoid an epidemiological investigation conducted by the Korea Centers for Disease Control and Prevention without justifiable reasons, you will be subject to imprisonment for up to 2 years or a fine of up to 20 million won in accordance with the Infectious Disease Prevention and Control Act. △Patients who refuse to be quarantined, such as those who do not respond to measures such as hospitalization and treatment, may be subject to a fine of up to 3 million won. This includes cases where a person refuses health authorities’ orders for testing, hospitalization, or isolation of patients with infectious diseases, people concerned about transmission, or people suspected of being infected. In fact, in December 2015, the Seoul Central District Court sentenced a woman in her 50s to a fine of 3 million won for going out despite being notified of self-quarantine during the MERS outbreak. - The Ministry of Food and Drug Safety began emergency supply and demand adjustment measures for the first time since the enactment of the Price Stability Act on the 12th. Mask producers must report production, domestic shipment and export volume, and sellers must report buyers and unit price quantities when selling in bulk. Anyone who hoards masks and hand sanitizers or violates emergency supply and demand adjustment measures may be subject to imprisonment for up to two years or a fine of up to 50 million won. Both of these can be applied, so you can be subject to both imprisonment and fines. - Malicious Smishing Recently, false messages disguised as information such as ‘confirmed person in area 00 died’, ‘we will give you free masks’, and ‘delivery delivery is delayed due to coronavirus’ are being spread to an unspecified number of people, taking advantage of public anxiety. This is a smishing scam that steals personal information by inducing the installation of a malicious program, so special caution is required. Through this, the scope of punishment is determined by comprehensively reviewing the circumstances leading to the fraud, the nature of the crime, and the amount of damage. Note that even if you did not directly participate in an electronic financial fraud, you can be punished under the Electronic Financial Transactions Act even if you transfer, acquire, or rent a bankbook or cash card, etc. - Spreading false information Producing and distributing various ghost stories and fake news is also subject to punishment. Additionally, if you cause damage to a specific company or hospital by posting false information related to the movement path of a confirmed patient, hospital, etc., it is a crime of obstruction of business. In particular, fake news about government-run public health centers and hospitals can be subject to charges of obstruction of official duties due to hierarchy. Obstruction of business can be punished by imprisonment for up to 5 years or a fine of up to 15 million won, and obstruction of official duties also receives the same punishment. Jae-guk Shim, a criminal lawyer at Seocho (Daeryun Law Firm), said, “The crime that ordinary people can most easily engage in is the spread of fake news. If the situation is serious, such as this COVID-19, greater punishment can be imposed.” He added, “Criminal punishment for defamation and obstruction of business is not possible. “If you receive it, you may have to pay alimony in a civil lawsuit, so you need to be careful not to get involved in criminal activity.” 2026-05-09T07:33:24.491Z https://www.daeryunlaw.com/en/broadcast/43 In a judicial divorce, many issues are disputed with the spouse, such as property division, child support, alimony, parental rights, and custody. Recently, in many cases, property division has been difficult due to the spouse's concealment or disposal of property. According to the legal community, legally married couples often register and manage marital property in one person's name. However, in the process of preparing for divorce, if a spouse who is registered as the owner of joint property secretly disposes of the property, the amount of the property is reduced, and the amount that the spouse who is not registered as the owner can receive in a property division lawsuit is reduced. In this situation, it is important to first understand the spouse's property status before filing for divorce, and expert assistance is also required in order to approach divorce litigation to minimize damages as much as possible. Divorce lawyer Daeryun Jinju of the Law Firm advises that in order to prevent the spouse's property from being concealed or disposed of until the divorce judgment is finalized, it is necessary to accurately identify the spouse's property and proceed with preservation disposition. In particular, it is explained that if there are no assets that can be used to freeze assets in the spouse's name, such as provisional seizure of real estate, provisional disposition, or rental deposit, provisional seizure can also be carried out on wages or deposit accounts in the spouse's name. In addition, Daeryun Jinju, a divorce lawyer at the Legal Law, said, "Whether to provisional seizure or provisional disposition depends on whether you will receive money through property division or transfer the ownership itself, so you need to devise a strategy and respond accordingly. He added, "When filling out an application for provisional seizure or injunction, it is necessary to calculate and enter an appropriate amount of alimony and property division, so we recommend getting help from an expert." Meanwhile, Daeryun Law Firm, which operates a divorce team consisting of divorce lawyers and family law lawyers, provides services in Seoul, Busan, Daegu, Incheon, Gwangju, Daejeon, Ulsan, Suwon, Changwon, Cheongju, Jeonju, Uijeongbu, We have branch offices in the southeastern region, Gyeongbuk region, and metropolitan area, including Chuncheon, Jinju, and Jeju, to provide legal consultation and customized legal services. (Reporter Yeo Dong-eun deyuh@mydaily.co.kr) View original article - http://www.mydaily.co.kr/new_yk/html/read.php?newsid=202002141709188241&ext=na 2026-05-09T16:16:48.248Z https://www.daeryunlaw.com/en/broadcast/42 On the 31st, the Jinju Branch of the Changwon District Court ruled in favor of the plaintiff in a lawsuit claiming alimony for an adulterer, ordering the defendant to pay 15 million won in compensation. An adulterer's alimony claim lawsuit is a claim for alimony by blaming an infidelity man or an infidelity woman for the breakdown of the marriage due to the spouse's extramarital affairs. With the abolition of the adultery law in 2015, criminal punishment can no longer be applied to an adulterous spouse and an adulterer, so the number of lawsuits claiming damages is increasing through incest suits that can resolve the issue civilly. According to industry experts, there are three main types of incestuousr alimony claim lawsuits. △ You can request alimony from the person with whom you had an affair with your spouse along with a divorce suit, or △ you can request alimony from the person with whom you had an affair after divorcing your spouse. If you decide to remain married, you can claim alimony only against the person responsible for the affair. However, since it is a claim for damages based on illegal acts, responsibility for the defendant's illegal acts must be proven. Divorce lawyer Shim Jae-guk of the law firm Daeryun, who was acting as the plaintiff's attorney at the time, said, "A lawsuit for incest and incontinence is a lawsuit seeking mental damages. Therefore, if intent is not proven or there is no conclusive evidence, the lawsuit may be dismissed. If the lawsuit is dismissed, the lawsuit cannot be filed again for the same reason, so rather than react hastily. He advised, “It is best to proceed after sufficient discussion based on the legal knowledge of a professional lawyer.” He continued, “Sometimes, a client preparing for an adulterous lawsuit collects evidence illegally by installing a location tracker or recorder in the spouse’s workplace or vehicle. If the adulterer collects evidence using illegal methods, the adulterer may be subject to criminal punishment and civil liability for damages in the future, so strategically seek assistance from a divorce lawyer from the beginning. “We will have to respond,” he added. Meanwhile, Daeryun Law Firm operates a divorce team comprised of lawyers who have completed registration in the domestic affairs and divorce specialty field recognized by the Korean Bar Association. The divorce team provides legal services in the overall field of divorce, including divorce litigation, alimony claims, custody, child support, and property division, including litigation procedures and issues at the time of divorce, divorce and domestic affairs litigation representation, and customized confidential counseling.

This workshop was held under the theme of ‘Strengthening capabilities for Daeryun development’ and was conducted in the following order: △proposal of management strategy △reading precedents △cultivation of customer service mind. ◆‘Management strategy’ to create innovative results. A time was held to propose management strategy areas using the keyword 'innovation', share annual/mid- to long-term work plans, and encourage employees to improve their expertise to achieve common goals. At the same time, immediate action tasks were derived through discussions on corporate management efficiency, such as an open employee multi-faceted evaluation system and a briefing on each team's work and expected capabilities, as well as the creation of an idea window for organizational development and a plan to adjust overlapping tasks. ◆ Following the cultivation of oral argument skills through the ‘Precedent Reading Program’, the self-established ‘Precedent Reading Program’ was also formalized. This is an opportunity for new lawyers to analyze precedents in front of senior legal professionals and engage in impromptu Q&A sessions to improve the thinking skills, presentation skills, logic loopholes, and improvisation skills required as lawyers. Hyun-ji Lee, a member lawyer who planned the precedent reading program, said, “It is most important for a lawyer to understand the issues well and emphasize them clearly. If you go to trial with oral argument skills that can clearly and logically organize legal arguments, you can expect positive results.” ◆ Cultivating a Customer Service Mind Law firms providing legal services have confirmed the improvement in awareness that ‘cultivating a customer service mind’ is a basic skill, and are helping clients and corporations meet. Contact points were analyzed step by step. The workshop ended with a customer service consulting session to suggest desirable response solutions and apply business manners and job-specific service communication skills. Representative attorney Shim Jae-guk said, "Our firm has established itself as a mid-sized law firm in name and reality by opening its Seoul office in December of last year. We hope that all members will work hard as we enter a new era of leap forward." He added, "The growth of the newly launched business management team and customer relationship management team is more important than anything else."

The plaintiff (buyer), who is engaged in power generation projects such as solar power and new and renewable energy, signed a contract with the defendant (seller) to sell land in Seongju-gun, Gyeongsangbuk-do for 3.3 billion won in August 2017. It was a conditional contract with the preconditions of ‘obtaining a solar power generation business permit from the Ministry of Trade, Industry and Energy’ and ‘if the power generation permit is not obtained, the seller will immediately return the entire down payment and interim deposit to the buyer.’ The plaintiff expected the defendant to make active efforts to resolve neighborhood complaints for a power generation permit as stated in the special contract, but the seller did not make any efforts, such as obtaining resident consent from the local government and residents of nearby areas, so the plaintiff’s application for a power generation permit was blocked. The sale contract was canceled due to rejection. However, the seller did not return the sale price even after six months had passed, and the buyer took all legal measures to obtain the return of the sale price with the help of a civil attorney. A civil attorney from Daeryun Law Firm in charge of the case said, “At the same time as filing a lawsuit for the return of the sale price, we filed a request for provisional seizure of the bonds and real estate, etc., and the court also accepted all of them.” He continued, “The sales contract is the most important evidence and the starting point for resolving all problems. In the case of the plaintiff, we were able to compensate for damages in case of an emergency because we drew up special provisions at the time of contract with the help of Daeryun Law Firm in advance.” Daeryun, a civil attorney, said, “Real estate transactions often use contracts prepared by brokers. To prevent any disputes, carefully review all the details of the contract and be sure to transcribe the matters discussed orally. “It is important to specify it as a special contract,” he advised. Meanwhile, Daeryun Law Firm’s dedicated corporate legal team, which includes civil attorneys, reviews contracts and official documents through regular consultation with corporate clients, thereby reducing the possibility of legal disputes and providing comprehensive corporate legal solutions that prevent cases that develop into lawsuits in advance. / Reporter Kim Dong-ho dongho@sedaily.com View original article - https://news.naver.com/main/read.nhn?mode=LSD∣=sec&sid1=101&oid=011&aid=0003678977 2026-05-09T17:08:11.975Z https://www.daeryunlaw.com/en/broadcast/39 Daeryun Law Firm (CEO Jae-guk Shim) announced that it won the loan dispute held at the 1st Civil Affairs Division of Jinju Branch, Changwon District Court on the 18th of last month. According to Daeryun Law Firm, the defendant at the time formed a natural relationship with Mr. B, the parent of his child's classmate, through volunteer work, and borrowed money from Mr. B for living expenses and did not repay it. Mr. A then further persuaded him to take out a loan from five financial institutions, including capital and savings banks, and Mr. B, who accepted this, suffered property damage worth approximately KRW 200 million. Civil lawyer Daeryun Seoul Office (Seocho-gu), who represented the plaintiff at the time, said, “If the debtor disposes of its assets and enters rehabilitation or bankruptcy proceedings, it becomes more difficult to receive money,” and “It is important to receive repayment of the debt and delay damages through a prompt lawsuit.” He said, “The case at the time was about a lawsuit requesting the return of a loan, and if you get a winning ruling and obtain the right to execute, you can select a financial institution and seize the other party’s account, etc., and if there is a balance, you can apply the amount to the claim through a collection order.” He added, “It would be helpful to deal with it with a legal assistant because there are ways to recover it.” An industry expert said, “In general, creditors who suffer from not receiving their money back often hand over the money without any special procedures out of hope, but in order to minimize economic, time, and psychological damage in the event of a legal dispute in the future, creditors must take care of their rights.” He added, “Writing out an IOU, recording, or leaving a text message is also a way to provide evidence rather than a cash transaction. “It is advisable to use surplus account transfers or check transactions that leave records,” he advised.

According to the legal community, on the 19th, the Changwon District Court ruled that in a lawsuit filed by a man for damages against a married woman, B, he should pay 60 million won in damages according to the plaintiff's cause of claim. B introduced her husband as her brother-in-law and her children as nephews to A, and continued to date by lying about the fact that she was a married woman for nearly a year. In addition, he borrowed money from Mr. A about 100 times for reasons such as living expenses and repaying his father's debt, and when Mr. A asked him to repay the money, he blocked his calls and messages and did not repay it. Person A, who found this strange, went to Mr. B's house and found out that all of his employment information and family relations were false information. Afterwards, Mr. A filed a lawsuit against Mr. B demanding payment of damages and alimony. Accordingly, the court ruled that the woman should pay 60 million won in damages, considering that she had caused damages through illegal acts. According to a civil attorney from Daeryun Law Firm, who served as the litigation representative at the time, “We decided to proceed with a lawsuit to claim damages as a married man lied to himself that he was single and repeatedly caused financial damages,” and “We decided to file a lawsuit for damages, including embezzling cash due to fraudulent acts.” “We are in the process of filing a complaint for fraud with a criminal lawyer for matters related to unpaid money.” A criminal lawyer from Daeryun Law Firm said, “Recently, there have been frequent cases of people hiding their identity through applications and engaging in fraud for the purpose of money, so caution is needed. If you may be harmed in a similar situation, you should collect data that can be used as evidence, such as conversation content, call content, and transfer history, and seek legal assistance to resolve the matter.” Added.

The Western Branch of the Busan District Court sentenced Mr. A (74), who was summarily indicted on charges of injury, insult, and violation of the Special Act on the Punishment of Sexual Violence Crimes, to complete a 40-hour sexual violence treatment program and to pay a fine of 5 million won. At the time, Mr. A caused sexual shame and disgust in the victim three times. A text message containing the content was sent, and the victim broke into the victim's house and threw a plastic milk box, causing injury to the victim. The victim filed a civil claim for damages, and the court confirmed damages of 5.5 million won. According to Daeryun Law Firm (Representative Attorney Shim Jae-guk), the plaintiff's representative at the time, "The defendant frequently sent sexual harassment text messages, and the plaintiff complained of pain due to home invasions, injuries, and work interference." He continued, "We proved the plaintiff's mental damage by securing evidentiary materials such as call records, text messages, 112 report processing records, medical certificates, injury medical certificates, and fact confirmation documents." Sexual crimes do not cause trauma to victims, but can leave serious psychological damage, so if you are suffering from sexual harassment text messages, you should find a solution with the help of a professional lawyer with extensive relevant experience rather than enduring it,” he advised.

At the time, the first trial found him guilty and sentenced him to a fine, but the 1st Criminal Division of the Changwon District Court decided that there was no proof of the crime, so it overturned the first trial judgment and declared him not guilty. According to the current Enforcement Rules of the Licensed Real Estate Brokerage Act (Article 20), the real estate agent receives remuneration for brokering sales from the brokerage client. It is stipulated that remuneration exceeding 9/1000 must not be received from either party. Mr. A, who was accused of receiving a sales brokerage fee exceeding the legal remuneration while concluding a real estate transaction worth 31 million won, denied the charge and claimed innocence, but was not accepted and was sentenced to pay a fine of 4 million won and 80% of the legal costs in February. Accordingly, a second trial was held following Mr. A's appeal, and the appellate court ruled Mr. A raised his hand. At the time, a criminal lawyer from Daeryun Law Firm, who represented Mr. A for his appeal, said, “We dug into the fact that the accuser’s statement about how and from whom the defendant received the money was being inconsistently reversed, and prepared evidence and defense.” He added, “According to Article 307, Paragraph 2 of the Criminal Procedure Act, admission of a crime must be proven beyond a reasonable doubt, so we responded to the case with the goal of innocence.” He explained, “It was decisive that we were able to find irrefutable evidence, such as the fact that the money that the defendant deposited into his account on the day of the incident was repayment from a debtor in the past, and that the place, time, and amount where the plaintiffs claimed to have paid the brokerage fee were completely different.” Meanwhile, Mr. A is suing the first plaintiff for false accusation and perjury. According to Daeryun Law Firm (Representative Attorney Shim Jae-guk), the plaintiff's representative, "The accuser was able to be cleared of the charges in the second trial, but complained of mental and financial pain, including an inability to concentrate on her main job for a significant period of time during the trial." He added, "Based on the plaintiff's will to seek severe punishment for the defendants, we will hold the defendants accountable for their false accusations and perjury." / Reporter Kim Dong-ho dongho@sedaily.com View original article - https://news.naver.com/main/read.nhn?mode=LSD∣=sec&sid1=101&oid=011&aid=0003666123 2026-05-13T12:24:59.388Z https://www.daeryunlaw.com/en/broadcast/35 On October 17, the 1st Criminal Division of the Jinju Branch of the Changwon District Court found Mr. A (50), a local newspaper reporter, not guilty on charges of attempted extortion and extortion. The prosecutor charged defendant A with attempted extortion and extortion, saying that while he was working as a reporter for a local newspaper, he published articles criticizing local businesses and blackmailed them into ordering advertisements and received money in the name of advertising fees. The prosecutor's court Regarding the attempted extortion case, the witness present reportedly stated, "I have never heard from the victim that the defendant threatened or blackmailed him." Witnesses who were victims of blackmail also testified to the effect that there was no threat, saying, "There was no threat, and there was no mention of publishing a critical article." In his defense, criminal lawyer Shim Jae-guk (Daeryun Law Firm), who was appointed as the defendant's attorney at the time, said, "For a threat to constitute a blackmail charge to be recognized, there must be notice of harm that could limit a person's freedom of decision-making or frighten the person to the extent of interfering with the freedom of execution of decision." He argued, "It should not be acknowledged that the act of reporting on the illegal activities of a company run by a blackmail victim and requesting that it place an advertisement constitutes an act of extortion." In addition, regarding the defendant's charges, he cited the Supreme Court's ruling that the mere fact of reporting critical articles and editorials and requesting advertisements cannot be considered as threatening the other party as a means of blackmail. Also, regarding the charge of attempted extortion, "The defendant, a reporter for a local newspaper, receiving advertising orders is also part of his job," and said, "It is a part of the defendant's job to receive advertisements as a journalist for a local newspaper." It was argued that "reporting and writing about the irrational aspects of the county office is the right thing to do in the profession of the defendant, a newspaper reporter. Accordingly, the court declared the indictment not guilty under the latter part of Article 325 of the Criminal Procedure Act because there was no proof of a crime.

Accordingly, as inheritance status changes through divorce and remarriage, issues related to inheritance are also becoming a new factor of conflict. In particular, in the case of remarriage at twilight, there are many cases where remarriage occurs with children, but this situation can also arise when both parties to the remarriage have children or when a new child is born between the remarriage parties. This is the case of Daeryun Law Firm. #The client's father remarried without informing the client, who was living abroad, and passed away after gifting his property to his spouse. However, the spouse intentionally attempted to inherit the property on his own without informing the client of this. The client, who found out about this fact late, ended up becoming embroiled in a property dispute. Accordingly, in order to determine the size of the gifted property, Daeryun calculated the basic property for the reserved portion by checking the gift tax report details, financial transaction details, and confirming the cause of real estate registration. In addition, as a result of convincing the court based on the evidence obtained after an objective and sufficient review, he won the lawsuit requesting the return of the reserved portion. A family affairs lawyer from Daeryun Law Firm, who handled the lawsuit at the time, advised that he prepare thoroughly with the help of a family lawyer, saying, “Securing the reserved portion is a difficult process for an individual to prepare alone, including identifying the basic assets of the decedent.” In particular, he advised, “The statute of limitations for the right to claim the return of a reserve is 1 year from the date of learning of the commencement of inheritance and gift, and is very short, less than 10 years from the date of commencement of inheritance, so it is most important to find a solution as soon as possible.” He continued, “As inheritance problems arising from divorce at twilight have recently increased, Daeryun Law Firm has established an inheritance team led by a family lawyer and a divorce team led by a divorce lawyer. He added, “We are building a collaborative system to prevent and respond to inheritance problems arising from divorce at dusk.” Daeryun Law Firm is currently providing professional legal assistance on complex inheritance disputes based on the practical experience it has accumulated through litigation in branches across the country, including Seoul, Busan, Daegu, Incheon, Gwangju, Daejeon, Ulsan, Suwon, Changwon, Cheongju, Jeonju, Uijeongbu, Chuncheon, Jinju, and Jeju.

Cyber ​​defamation is not just about celebrities. If you look at the ‘number of cyber defamation and insult cases’ released by the National Police Agency in October, you can see that it has increased significantly from 8,880 cases in 2014 to 15,926 cases last year. The Republic of Korea is suffering from cyber defamation and insults that occur online. Offline is no exception. There are cases where photos taken without one's knowledge are given names such as ‘00 Chung’, ‘00 Male’, or ‘00 Female’ online, causing embarrassment. In such cases, personal information such as age, occupation, and upbringing is leaked through so-called ‘doxxing,’ which creates secondary damage such as making daily life difficult. This is the case described by Busan criminal lawyer at Daeryun Law Firm. #There was an incident in which the defendant, who was dissatisfied with the class of client A, who was an instructor, expressed his dissatisfaction through a comment on social media. Mr. A tried to clear up the misunderstanding, but the defendant ignored this and even sent defamatory messages to Mr. A's personal social media acquaintances, ridiculing client A. Mr. A suffered from insomnia and depression due to stress due to this incident, and as rumors spread rapidly, lectures were canceled regardless of the facts, resulting in secondary damages. At the time, the criminal lawyer in charge weighed the case and submitted a complaint to the court for 'defamation of character and obstruction of business by reporting false facts'. As a result of responding based on the facts of the damage, including collecting evidence with effectiveness and opposing force, the court awarded 5 million won to the defendant. He explained that he was sentenced to a fine of one won. In the case of cyber defamation or insults, the speed of spread is fast and an unspecified number of people encounter it, so the damage is great and recovery is difficult. Accordingly, experts emphasized, "Waiting quietly for the situation to pass will only worsen the situation. It is important to respond quickly and reliably at an early stage to reduce damage." He also advised, “If you unintentionally become a perpetrator due to a momentary mistake, get help from a criminal lawyer with extensive case experience.” Meanwhile, Daeryun Law Firm, which is considered a large law firm in Seoul, Busan, Daegu, Incheon, Gwangju, Daejeon, Ulsan, Suwon, Changwon, Cheongju, Jeonju, Uijeongbu, Chuncheon, Jinju, and Jeju, opened its Seoul office on the 25th.

According to Daeryun Law Firm, a large law firm, it advises that in the case of criminal cases, it is important to find contradictions in sharply conflicting claims through analysis of professional statements by criminal lawyers. This is a case in which Daeryun was in charge of defending the defendant. There is a defendant and a victim who are living together ahead of marriage. An argument broke out when the drunk victim saw a toothbrush in the bathroom and suspected the defendant of an affair. As a result, the victim died while receiving treatment for subdural hemorrhage, and the defendant was indicted on charges of manslaughter, but was acquitted. The lawyer in charge at the time solved the case based on the principle of evidential trial as stipulated in the Criminal Procedure Act. Particular attention was paid to the pattern of the wound. In response to the prosecution's opinion that the defendant injured the victim and caused her death, they emphasized the defendant's statement that the victim fell on the living room floor. In addition, it was claimed that the victim was drunk and that the floor was slippery due to the soju bottle thrown at the defendant and the food on the table that was overturned. Additionally, the victim's body, which suffered from alcoholic liver disease, was prone to bruises even from minor external forces. It was based on the autopsy report showing that there were no injuries on the victim's body parts such as the head and neck except for the back of the head, and the fact that there were no signs of an attempt to defend against assault. In addition, after the victim fell and the suspect called 119, he checked again whether 119 was dispatched and took rescue measures, the testimony of the first paramedic who responded that there were no signs of a struggle, the fact that the bloodstains found at the scene of the damage were the defendant's, and the fact that the victim was The trial was led by the fact that they spoke on the phone for two minutes immediately afterward. Accordingly, the court declared the defendant not guilty, saying, "In a criminal trial, the admission of a crime must be based on strict evidence with the probative power to create confidence beyond a reasonable doubt. The evidence submitted by the prosecutor alone is not enough to admit the indictment, and there is no other evidence to admit it." “In general, in situations where an explanation is needed due to unfair charges, it is important to appoint a criminal lawyer from the early stage to proceed with the case,” he said. “Above all, we must carefully analyze the case, collect evidence, and create a logical structure to refute the indictment to lead the trial.” Meanwhile, Daeryun Law Firm, which is scheduled to open a new Seoul office on the 25th, currently has criminal lawyers, civil lawyers, divorce lawyers, We have a lawyer specializing in domestic affairs./Reporter Kim Dong-ho dongho@sedaily.com View original article - https://news.naver.com/main/read.nhn?mode=LSD∣=sec&sid1=101&oid=011&aid=0003654314 2026-05-08T23:20:46.455Z https://www.daeryunlaw.com/en/broadcast/31 As voice phishing crimes become more sophisticated, the types of damage are becoming more diverse. In addition to victims who have suffered financial damage by impersonating government agencies such as prosecutors, police, and the Financial Supervisory Service or by threatening to kidnap family members, the number of people who are being punished by voice phishing through exposure of bank account or personal transaction information is increasing. The above voice phishing intermediate delivery and withdrawal methods take advantage of the recent economic recession by finding account numbers and depositing large amounts of unidentified money using emergency loans as bait, and then requesting remittance due to a deposit error or △ citing employment. The methods are also becoming more diverse, such as requesting an account number, check card, and password to withdraw the money deposited by the victim; calling with a caller ID limit to send cash and requesting proxy purchase of Bitcoin; requesting that the proceeds deposited by the customer be remitted to a borrowed-name account for tax reduction. In addition, malicious code is planted through text messages and applications through smartphones, and when the victim calls the financial institution to confirm, they are connected to the call center of a voice phishing organization. Therefore, they can undoubtedly be involved in crime. The punishment for this is not light. Even if there was no criminal intent, it is difficult to avoid liability if a victim is incurred through an act such as renting a bank account. Violation of the Electronic Financial Transactions Act can result in imprisonment of up to 3 years or a fine of up to 20 million won, and fraud, which involves obtaining property benefits through deceptive acts, is punishable by up to 10 years in prison or a fine of up to 20 million won. In the case of aiding and abetting fraud, the punishment varies depending on the degree of participation in the fraud. According to Daeryun Law Firm, in order to avoid being deceived by a fraud method and becoming an unwitting accomplice in a voice phishing crime, it is advised to contact a criminal lawyer immediately after learning of the damage and respond clearly from the beginning. Even if they claim to be unfair, the actual voice phishing gang member also claims, “I didn’t know because I was fooled by a high-paying part-time job advertisement,” so it is not easy to prove innocence without legal help. Dae-ryun is a similar case. He was tricked into lending four of his check cards by asking for his check card and password because he needed account information to get a part-time job. He said that he helped a client involved in the case with a voice phishing intermediate method and ended up with a small fine. Law firm. Shim Jae-guk, a criminal lawyer at Daeryun, said, "If you suddenly become involved in the crime through voice phishing, you may be punished for somewhat unfair reasons. Because statements made during the investigation stage can affect the trial, it is most important to find a criminal lawyer with experience in voice phishing cases and effectively prove that there was no intent." He added, "If you prepare a well-organized defense opinion and defense, you can reduce your sentence." Meanwhile, Daeryun Law Firm said. We operate law offices based in Seoul, Busan, Daegu, Incheon, Gwangju, Daejeon, Ulsan, Suwon, Changwon, Cheongju, Jeonju, Uijeongbu, Chuncheon, Jinju, and Jeju. We have many successful cases of voice phishing fraud acquittals, and we are receiving good reviews in the industry by forming a professional task force team composed of specialized lawyers, paralegals, and legal clerks in each field for all lawsuits, and providing customized responses.

We looked into the secret of growth of ‘Daeryun’, which recently expanded and opened offices in the southeastern region such as Busan, Daegu, Changwon, and Jinju and made a bid for a large law firm. ◆Focusing on the ‘thinking system’... From the joint legal defense system to communication at each branch. According to representative attorney Shim Jae-guk, ‘winning’ is the top priority to protect clients and guarantee legitimate rights. For this purpose, there is a ‘joint defense system’ that is applied internally. The joint defense system is to form a professional task force team according to the characteristics of the litigation case and establish a work flow chart to organize issues, supplement weaknesses, and verify argument logic. Professional lawyers, paralegals, and law clerks who are part of the team look at it from various perspectives and develop and apply response systems according to variables to derive strategies. ‘Branch-specific communication’ also attracts attention. Each regional office has established its own database to share cases accepted and provide feedback on precedents and defense strategies for similar cases. Accordingly, it is being evaluated that Daeryun has a specialized winning solution based on a system that can prevent lawyers from being subjectively buried in a case and accumulated know-how. ◆ Introducing ‘reverse mentoring’ for a flexible organizational culture. Representative attorney Dosim Jae-guk is also focusing on establishing a systematic system for the law firm and reforming the corporate culture. In order to put into practice the principle of “creating a flexible and quick decision-making organizational culture,” we are currently conducting a ‘Reverse Mentoring’ program in which general employees become mentors and executives become mentees. Reverse mentoring is an informal learning program in which seniors learn new knowledge and trends from juniors and receive inspiration, as opposed to traditional mentoring where seniors guide juniors. Through reverse mentoring held at the headquarters once a month, major agenda items of management meetings are freely discussed and market and customer trends are identified to supplement the overall competitiveness of the organization. In addition, changes were made to the work environment to increase employee productivity and encourage voluntary engagement. We are increasing employee satisfaction by improving work efficiency by minimizing meeting time, simplifying reporting procedures and administration, and eliminating unnecessary overtime and overtime. Currently, Daeryun Law Firm operates offices in Seoul, Busan, Daegu, Incheon, Gwangju, Daejeon, Ulsan, Suwon, Changwon, Cheongju, Jeonju, Uijeongbu, Chuncheon, Jinju, and Jeju, and has 17 lawyers. Professional lawyers specializing in divorce, family affairs, criminal, and civil affairs provide legal consultation and present customized strategies to win the case.

Due to the nature of sexual crimes, cases often occur in spaces where there are no witnesses or no CCTV, so objective facts and physical evidence, as well as evidence from the victim's statement, are important clues to the case. Jae-guk Shim, representative attorney at Daeryun Law Firm, said, "We recently won a case by defending the injustice of a client who was named as a defendant in a rape case. The victim in the case claimed that the defendant forcibly committed adultery with her body parts several times, but as a result of DNA testing, only the victim's DNA was detected on the victim's clothes." He then explained, "The victim's statement, including the route he took to the motel and the facts of the damage, lacked consistency in the investigative agency and the court, so we secured objective evidence to refute this. We identified false facts in the victim's claim through CCTV footage, text messages, physical evidence such as no traces left in the area where the victim said he was strongly pressed, and a doctor's opinion." The first trial court declared the defendant not guilty, saying, "It is difficult to admit the facts of the indictment in this case, and there is no proof of the crime." In the second trial that followed, the ruling was dismissed, saying, “There is no violation of the law in the misconception of facts claimed by the prosecutor.” Representative attorney Shim Jae-guk advised, “If you are unfairly accused of a sexual crime, it is important to try to prevent punishment with the help of a professional lawyer from the early stage without fearing that the fact will become known to those around you.” He also said, “Currently, Daeryun Law Firm (Seoul, Busan, Daegu, Incheon, Gwangju, Daejeon, Ulsan, Suwon, Changwon, Cheongju, Jeonju, “Uijeongbu, Chuncheon, Jinju, Jeju) are providing legal counseling to protect the rights and interests of the legally vulnerable who are unable to respond appropriately due to ignorance of the law. In case of sexual crime cases, we have established a reliable initial response team to prove the innocence and provide relief to clients suffering from unfair stories, and are receiving good reviews from clients.” Reporter Lee Sang-yeon of the SME & Startup Team pond2580@ View original article - https://news.naver.com/main/read.nhn?mode=LSD∣=sec&sid1=101&oid=008&aid=0004274242 2026-04-14T19:10:08.115Z https://www.daeryunlaw.com/en/broadcast/28 Since the recent abolition of the adultery law, lawsuits seeking compensation for damages against the spouse's adulterous woman and the adulterer have been increasing. In one case, Mr. A and Mr. B lived together for 3 years after holding a wedding ceremony without registering the marriage. Mr. A, who had irregular commuting times due to shift work, entered into an affair with Ms. C during the period of their common-law marriage. With the help of a lawyer, Ms. B collected and analyzed related videos, message records, recordings, and black box data that were advantageous to the lawsuit and submitted them as evidence, revealing that the common-law marriage relationship had broken down due to the misconduct of Mr. A and Ms. C. In addition, it was expressed that there is an obligation to compensate Ms. B for damages caused by the breakdown of her marriage. The court acknowledged Ms. B's claims and evidence, determined that the common-law marriage had broken down due to the culpable acts of Mr. A and Ms. C, and ruled in favor of the plaintiff, ordering A and Ms. C to pay alimony. This is the case of attorney Shim Jae-guk, who is serving as the representative divorce attorney at Daeryun Law Firm. He said, “If you find out that your spouse is an adulterer or an adulteress and prepare for a lawsuit, thorough preparation is necessary.” He added, “It is important to collect as much effective data as possible, such as videos, message records, and recordings, and to seek advice from a lawyer who has experience handling many divorce and domestic affairs lawsuits.” He also advised, "When calculating alimony, rather than unconditionally offering a high amount, alimony can only be recognized by proving the mental damage in detail and calculating the alimony based on objective data that can be persuasive. Since the key is how to prove it, reasonable costs and the help of a divorce lawyer with extensive experience in winning cases are more important than anything else." Daeryun Law Firm specializes in divorce, domestic affairs, criminal, and civil affairs and operates offices in Seoul, Busan, Daegu, Incheon, Gwangju, Daejeon, Ulsan, Suwon, Changwon, Cheongju, Jeonju, Uijeongbu, Chuncheon, Jinju, and Jeju.

As a result, many people have been punished for drunk driving and various other incidents are occurring. According to Daeryun Law Firm, which operates with offices in Busan, Daegu, Changwon, and Jinju, an unusual case related to drinking was reported and made public. The client, who attended as a witness in an acquaintance's drunk driving case, was indicted for perjury of his testimony. The defendant (client) appeared in the Changwon District Court as a witness in the appellate trial of the road traffic law violation (drinking driving) case against Mr. A and took an oath. Then, he answered "yes" to the lawyer's question, "Has the witness ever walked with the defendant to the place where the defendant's car was parked on the day of the incident?" When asked by the defense attorney, “Did you ever walk with the defendant and then see the defendant get into his car?” he answered “yes”. Then, when asked by the defense lawyer “where did you ride?” he answered “I rode in the back seat.” However, in fact, Mr. A was driving while drunk and arrived at the accident site, and the defendant did not move with Mr. A on the sidewalk to the accident site where Mr. A’s car was parked, and Mr. A was on the sidewalk. I did not see him riding in the back seat of a car. Accordingly, the defendant was indicted for perjury by giving false testimony contrary to his memory as described above. Accordingly, the lawyer of Daeryun Law Firm actively pleaded not guilty, saying, "The defendant saw Mr. A lying on the bench and walked with Mr. A to the temporary parking lot. He said that he would rest for a while in his parked vehicle and returned home after seeing Mr. A get into the back seat of the vehicle. He did not know what happened after that, and testified in court as he remembered what happened at the time." The court was able to accept it. The defendant's testimony only extends to the fact that he saw Mr. A get into the back seat of his car, and does not address whether Mr. A drove while intoxicated afterwards. Therefore, it was determined that the fact that Mr. A was convicted of drunk driving was not direct evidence for the indictment of perjury in this case, and since the indictment in this case corresponds to a case where there is no proof of a crime, the defendant was declared not guilty in accordance with the Criminal Procedure Act. An official of Daeryun, a law firm registered with criminal specialist, civil specialist, divorce specialist, and domestic affairs specialist recognized by the Korean Bar Association, said, “This case, which started with the indictment of an acquaintance, was caused by a drunk driving conviction. In this case, the content that the client did not perjure has become a problem. Even if you are indicted, you can easily close the case by asking for advice from a professional without panicking.” 2026-05-06T09:59:39.443Z https://www.daeryunlaw.com/en/broadcast/26 Recently, the number of common-law marriages living like real couples without registering their marriage is on the rise. A common-law marriage refers to a state of marriage in which the couple cannot be legally recognized as a marriage because they have not registered the marriage legally, but is actually in a marital relationship. Whether a common-law marriage or a legal marriage, when the marital relationship is recognized, various rights are granted along with obligations such as cohabitation, support, cooperation, and chastity. So, what rights can be guaranteed if the relationship ends after continuing through a common-law marriage? Shim Jae-guk, CEO of Daeryun Divorce Law Firm, said, “Like a legal marriage spouse, a common-law spouse can file a lawsuit for property division and alimony against the other spouse when the common-law marriage is dissolved. However, since kinship does not occur in a common-law marriage, inheritance rights do not arise even if the common-law spouse dies.” However, there are requirements for establishing a common-law marriage in order to divide property and claim alimony. There must be a mutual intention to marry, and both the man and the woman must register and live together in the same house, take care of each other's family events, introduce each other as spouses to people around them, etc., so they must not only have registered the marriage, but have actually built a relationship as a couple. However, unlike a legal marriage, a common-law marriage divorce lawsuit must first prove whether the marriage is common-law. Attorney Shim Jae-guk said, “Unlike a legal marriage divorce trial, the priority is to collect evidence that can prove the common-law marriage relationship. This is because most cases deny the common-law marriage relationship and claim that it was a simple cohabitation relationship in order to avoid dividing property and alimony to the other party.” He said, “The division of property in a common-law marriage depends on the common-law relationship and how contribution is proven, and the common-law marriage alimony depends on the common-law relationship and how the other party’s fault for the divorce is proven. If you proceed hastily, the lawsuit itself may be dismissed due to failure to prove the common-law relationship, so we recommend that you get help from a professional lawyer who has handled many divorce and domestic affairs lawsuits.” He advised. Meanwhile, Daeryun Law Firm, of which Attorney Shim Jae-guk is the representative attorney, is an active law firm that operates a divorce team in Busan divorce lawyers as well as in Seoul, Daegu, Incheon, Gwangju, Daejeon, Ulsan, Suwon, Changwon, Cheongju, Jeonju, Uijeongbu, Chuncheon, Jinju, and Jeju.

You may be sued without your knowledge for unfair matters such as criminal, civil, divorce, domestic affairs, and administrative matters. Examples include civil cases such as financial transactions, real estate transactions, and property disputes due to illegal acts, which we most often encounter in our daily lives, as well as criminal cases such as fraud, theft, forcible molestation, rape, assault, injury, and defamation, which are so-called 'crimes', and domestic cases such as divorce and inheritance, which are representative problems that occur at home. Daeryun Shim Jae-guk Law Firm The representative lawyer answered, "In the case of various lawsuits and criminal trials, the top priority is to understand the substantive truth of the case. What is needed in this process is the lawyer's sincerity and litigation experience. In order for a lawyer who has not directly experienced the case to understand the truth of the case, the process of listening to the client's story in detail is essential." This is because whether or not a case can be made can be judged based on the winning know-how accumulated based on the experience of successfully handling various cases over the years. Next, the judge discovers and interprets laws and precedents that can make a favorable ruling for the parties and argues them to the judge. Currently, there are thousands of laws, enforcement decrees, and rules. It is important to have extensive knowledge and long experience to appropriately utilize such a vast amount of laws. In other words, in order to win a lawsuit, it is important for a lawyer to understand the substance of the case as above and discover and interpret the laws applicable to the case.

If you need to make a choice due to various issues such as marital disputes, legal help from a divorce lawyer may be available. Domestic violence applies to cases where you have been treated severely unfairly by your spouse or lineal ascendant under Article 840, Paragraph 3 of the Korean Civil Code, and this is a clear ground for divorce in court. If a couple has a dispute and is in a situation where they can reach an agreement through conversation, they can try divorce by agreement, but in the case of domestic violence, it is difficult to communicate with your spouse. We recommend that you dissolve your marriage through a divorce lawsuit with the help of a divorce lawyer. Client A is a couple who has registered their marriage with the defendant, and the defendant filed a lawsuit against client A citing grounds for divorce such as swearing and verbal abuse, assault, and habitual drinking. Daeryun Law Firm's divorce team strongly represented the client's position and approached the trial with a meticulous strategy, and as a result, client A and the defendant were separated due to the above-mentioned reasons of fault. Since the marriage relationship broke down, Client A and the defendant divorced, and a ruling was made that the defendant was obligated to pay Client A 95,000,000 won in property division, 20 million won in alimony, and delayed damages. Shim Jae-guk, representative attorney at Daeryun Law Firm, said, “If you have suffered damage such as verbal abuse or assault from your spouse, you must secure evidence that can prove this and use it in the divorce lawsuit.” He said, “In order to escape domestic violence for yourself and your children and actively assert your rights, such as alimony and property division, choose a divorce lawyer with extensive experience in related litigation and ask for advice.” We also provide one-on-one counseling with complete confidentiality, and for those who have difficulty receiving consultations on weekdays, we provide counseling services in Busan, Daegu, Incheon, Gwangju, Daejeon, Ulsan, Suwon, Changwon, Cheongju, Jeonju, Uijeongbu, Chuncheon, Jinju, and Seoul.

Unlike civil cases, criminal cases such as sex crimes that follow criminal law are related to crime, so the level of difficulty for each case is high, making the legal procedures that must be followed complicated and difficult. If you commit a crime, you should be punished accordingly. However, the problem is that, unlike when the issue was first raised, people do not show interest if the case is later concluded with acquittal or acquittal. As a result, suspects or defendants who are accused of sexual crimes such as rape or sexual harassment are unable to respond actively for fear of the fact becoming known to those around them. Therefore, if you are accused of a sexual crime, it is better to resolve the problem with the help of a criminal lawyer with abundant experience in the related field rather than vaguely complaining about the other party's innocence or your own unfairness. Because sexual crime criminal cases such as forcible molestation and rape generally lack 'direct and objective evidence' and there are no witnesses and only 'statements of the parties' and 'indirect and accurate circumstances', so it is important to compare the credibility of these circumstances and the statements of the parties. It is one of the major issues, and handling these issues requires the judgment and advice of legal experts. As the scope of punishment for sexual crimes is expanding, it is not easy for the general public to clearly predict which actions will be punished as criminal acts. Therefore, if you are facing charges, it is recommended that you resolve the matter with the help of a lawyer. In addition, sex crimes are criminal cases in which a conviction can be made based solely on the statements of the victims, so a careful legal approach is necessary. Agreement between the suspect or the defendant and the victim is the most important, but due to the nature of sexual crimes, agreement is quite difficult, or sanctions are imposed, such as registration of personal information of sexual offenders under the Special Act on the Punishment of Sexual Crimes, and restrictions on employment at child and youth-related institutions under the Act on Sexual Protection of Children and Adolescents. In the end, legal help from a lawyer is essential for the parties involved in a sexual assault case to receive legal protection. Due to the nature of sexual crimes, they often take place in spaces where there are no witnesses or CCTV, so in order to defend against charges, it is necessary to focus on the suspect's initial statement during the investigation stage. Attorney Shim Jae-guk of Daeryun Law Firm said, "We plan to continue more active defense and evidence collection activities to prevent concerns of imposing criminal liability beyond the level of responsibility on the offender due to arbitrary interpretation of the law." He added, "We want to understand the pain our clients face and provide legal advice from various angles. “I will do it,” he expressed his ambition.

However, compared to the rapid increase in the divorce rate, there are few clients who accurately understand the divorce preparation process or important issues in divorce, so there are many cases where they experience inconvenience and damage. It is difficult for the general public to know and understand basic information about divorce, such as that divorce can be divided into divorce by agreement and divorce by trial depending on the method of proceeding, or that in order for trial divorce to proceed in court, it must fall under the causes of trial divorce under Article 840 of the Civil Act. It is not easy at all. Client A is a couple who has registered their marriage with the defendant, and the defendant filed a lawsuit citing grounds for divorce, such as hiding his/her income and not paying living expenses to client A throughout the marriage, and then unilaterally leaving the house and not being able to contact him. As a result, the marriage between client A and the defendant broke down due to the defendant's fault above, so client A and the defendant divorced, and the defendant gave client A 20 million won as alimony and compensation for the same. It led to a ruling that there was an obligation to pay delay damages. Representative attorney Shim Jae-guk, a divorce lawyer at Daeryun Law Firm, said, "These days, due to the development of the Internet, it is easy to obtain various information about divorce. However, the legal interpretation may vary depending on the legal situation or case, and when acquiring such information, it can be dangerous to blindly apply it to one's case without making a legal judgment." In addition, he advised, “When proceeding with a judicial divorce, various additional issues may arise, such as division of property between the couple, alimony, custody, child support claims, etc., and for one’s own benefit and stability, it is more important than anything else to prepare for divorce based on legal advice and advice from a legal expert.” Meanwhile, Daeryun Law Firm has jurisdictions in Seoul, Busan, Daegu, Incheon, Gwangju, Daejeon, Ulsan, Suwon, Changwon, Cheongju, Jeonju, and other jurisdictions.

In order to obtain objective data that can be recognized as a spouse at fault, the scope of evidence collection recognized by law must first be obtained through a divorce lawyer. In addition, while proceeding with a lawsuit, you need the help of a divorce lawyer to obtain the results you deserve, from alimony to property division and custody. In a divorce lawsuit, the person claiming alimony is the at-fault spouse, so it is essential to collect objective evidence that can be recognized as the at-fault spouse. If a third party other than the at-fault spouse contributed to the breakdown of the marriage, they can also claim alimony.

If the charge is found, the person is punished by imprisonment for up to 10 years or a fine of up to 15 million won. In response to this, Daeryun Law Firm, a criminal lawyer in Changwon, would like to introduce a case where a person was sentenced to prison for forcible molestation. Defendant A walked up behind victim B and held out both hands. He massaged and touched Victim B's breasts several times, touched the victim's private parts over his jeans several times, grabbed the victim's hand and made him touch his erect genitals, chased after the victim who was running away, touched the victim's breasts several times, and forcibly molested him by rubbing his genitals against the victim's buttocks. Accordingly, the client, Victim B, visited Daeryun Law Firm, stated the facts of the damage, and requested representation. Accordingly, Daeryun Law Firm formed a dedicated team of professional lawyers to represent the victim in filing a complaint, but the first defendant claimed that there was no fact of forcible molestation.

Considering the evidence, it can be acknowledged that the defendant forcibly molested the victim, so the defendant's claim was not accepted and he was sentenced to 1 year and 6 months in prison. An official from Daeryun Law Firm, a criminal lawyer in Changwon, said, "Requests for cases such as sexual harassment and forced molestation often rely on the victim's statement to solve the case, and the most important thing is to collect evidence to support the victim's testimony.

A special crackdown on drunk driving was launched during the year-end and New Year holidays. In particular, in addition to the existing night and late-night crackdowns, 'broad daylight crackdowns' will also be implemented unexpectedly to prevent drunk driving during lunch hours on weekdays and holidays. Accordingly, a police official said, "To spread the awareness that drunk driving can be cracked down anytime and anywhere, we plan to increase the number and duration of crackdowns by mobilizing as much of the available police personnel as possible, including traffic police, riot squads, and district units." These days, there are many incidents of drunk driving detections and conflicts due to various company dinners and gatherings during the year-end and New Year holidays. Seoul, Busan, Daegu, Incheon, Gwangju, Daejeon, Ulsan, Suwon, Changwon, Cheongju, Jeonju, Uijeongbu, etc. Daeryun Law Firm, which has offices in Chuncheon, Jinju, and Jeju, is also receiving many cases of drunk driving. The prosecutor indicted the client, Mr. A, after driving while intoxicated with a blood alcohol level of 0.252% about 4km from Mr. A's office. However, in a criminal trial, the burden of proof for the indicted crime lies with the prosecutor, and the admission of guilt must be based on strict evidence with the probative power to convince the judge that the indictment is true beyond a reasonable doubt. Therefore, in the absence of such evidence, even if there is a suspicion of guilt, the defendant has no choice but to judge it in the defendant's interest, leading to a ruling that the evidence submitted by the prosecutor alone is insufficient to admit the facts of Mr. A's drunk driving. An official from Daeryun Law Firm said, “We specialize in early response to sexual crimes, economic crimes, drunk driving, and juvenile crimes, and through various success stories, we are actively working to establish ourselves as a law firm specializing in criminal cases that can be comfortably consulted and relied upon like family for those who are going through difficult and difficult times.” In addition, Changwon criminal lawyers provide the information requested by investigative agencies so that investigations that may be neglected or unfair internally can be handled accurately and appropriately.

Civil litigation such as real estate, rental, compensation for damages, lease, etc. However, it is not easy to actively deal with various legal disputes that appear throughout life. Civil litigation is a trial process whose goal is to determine the existence of legal relationships between individuals or judicial disputes or rights, and is a procedure for the court to forcibly resolve these matters by law through its jurisdiction. The core principle of these civil litigations is advocacy. Argumentation is a method of confirming the evidentiary materials and facts collected by the parties and making a judgment after arguing. It is impossible to make a judgment based on parts that the parties did not claim or materials that they did not submit. Therefore, thorough preparation of evidentiary materials and required facts is necessary for smooth resolution of the case. If the case is lost due to lack of such preparation, it becomes the responsibility of the party since it is within the power of the party. Therefore, in order to win, it is advisable to receive assistance from a lawyer. Regarding the legal disputes that threaten our daily lives, representative attorney Shim Jae-guk said, "When conflicts arise between people, such as in various civil lawsuits, they tend to have difficulty responding properly. We must not only assist local residents as a reliable lawyer so that they do not suffer from complex and difficult legal problems, but also help the local community by facilitating communication between each other." He advised, "Because the direction of cases may change depending on the facts, evidence, and interpretation and application of legal principles, it is advisable to resolve them with the legal assistance of a lawyer."

In the end, when it is determined that there is no possibility of maintaining a smooth relationship, divorce is finally considered. At this time, if the divorce is not reached by agreement, it will lead to a trial. If the divorce proceeds through a divorce lawsuit, it is wise to prepare for the trial with a divorce lawyer rather than preparing the lawsuit on your own. Divorce lawsuits often take a long time because they must go through mediation procedures, family investigation procedures, and couple counseling during the litigation process, and can proceed depending on the reason for divorce. This is because there is a lot of potential for legal disputes because the question of whether or not a decision is made, as well as whose side is favored, is determined by objective evidence. Here, various issues are dealt with, including division of property, alimony, custody and parental rights, calculation of child support, and costs of hiring a lawyer. In particular, when dividing property due to divorce, all property accumulated through joint cooperation is distributed according to each person's contribution to forming, maintaining, and preventing decline of property during the marriage. The key is to actively prove and claim contribution to property formation. At this time, counseling and assistance from a lawyer with legal knowledge is essential throughout the entire process of divorce litigation, including proving one's contribution in property division, a parenting plan for parental rights and custody, and alimony issues that require proving that the other party is at fault for divorce. Jae-guk Shim, a divorce lawyer at Daeryun Law Firm, said, “Divorce litigation involves not only the dissolution of marriage, but also parental rights and custody, child support, property division, and alimony. “It is a lawsuit that requires careful consideration of issues such as, so it is not easy for an individual to proceed alone in the various processes of a divorce lawsuit.” He also said, “If you file a divorce lawsuit hastily, there may not be enough evidence, so there may not be facts to claim or prove, and the claim itself may be dismissed. Since you may also have to incur litigation costs, it is recommended that you proceed with the lawsuit after sufficient consultation with a divorce attorney with extensive relevant experience.” “It is important to find high-quality legal services that can lead to a favorable ruling for the client with the know-how accumulated over many years of litigation experience in a variety of cases across family litigation,” he said. “One way is to prepare for a divorce lawsuit through 1:1 customized legal counseling based on actual divorce lawsuit cases through a lawyer who has completed registration of divorce specialty qualifications recognized by the Korean Bar Association.” Advised.

However, it is difficult for non-experts to proceed with legal procedures. Not only is the term itself unfamiliar, but the process is also quite complicated. The same goes for criminal litigation. When a legal dispute arises due to a criminal matter, it is important not to miss the opportunity to assert the facts and legal principles of reducing criminal liability by asserting normal relationship or denying the charge. In order to exercise sufficient defense rights for various crimes such as assault, injury, fraud, embezzlement, breach of trust, sex crimes, defamation, and drunk driving, abundant experience and know-how in criminal case proceedings are necessary. The results vary greatly depending on which lawyer you choose, and you need to develop a litigation strategy with a criminal lawyer and respond systematically to increase your chances of winning. Accordingly, at Daeryun Law Firm, a criminal lawyer in Jinju, Changwon, lawyers specializing in each field participate in the investigation process, defend against unfavorable questions, and provide customized assistance to clients by submitting necessary explanatory materials.

It was written with attention to the fact that although there are many cases where people participate as part-time workers and are investigated as suspects, the outcome of the case varies greatly depending on the initial response and strategic preparation. Attorney Youngjin Ahn, who has handled numerous voice phishing cases, introduces in detail what you need to know at the investigative stage, including police investigation, interrogation of suspects, search and seizure, arrest warrant, and decision on whether to indict, key issues in delivery/extraction cases, and response strategies based on actual cases. New content centered on actual case experience is also included, such as the distinction between simple participation and active participation, the relationship between the amount of damage and sentencing, whether there is agreement, the level of punishment depending on whether it is a first offense, and cases of acquittal, suspended indictment, suspended sentence, and acquittal. This book is a practical guide to help those currently under investigation or undergoing trial understand the flow of the case and determine a response, and is designed to provide practical help to those who have been unfairly involved in the case.

As artificial intelligence technology changes the business landscape, legal discussions on regulating and managing it are rapidly becoming concrete. Now, we have entered an era where AI goes beyond ‘how to develop it’ and asks ‘who is responsible and how’ for its impact on society. The “AI Basic Act” is scheduled to go into full effect from January 22nd. In particular, strict obligations to ensure safety, transparency, and accountability are expected to be imposed on companies that operate ‘high-risk, high-impact AI’ systems with large social impact. However, there is still great confusion on the ground. “Does our service qualify as high-impact AI?” “Who is responsible to what extent - the developer, the service provider, or the user?” “What should be modified in the business planning stage starting tomorrow?” In this seminar, we aim to remove the uncertainty faced by companies as the Basic AI Act is implemented and present risk control standards that can preemptively respond to changes in the regulatory environment expected after the law goes into effect. The seminar covers the following key topics: Session 1: Predicting changes in the regulatory environment expected after the enforcement of the law Session 2: Legal obligations and implementation plans to ensure transparency, safety, and accountability related to high-impact AI Session 3: Practical application of the AI ​​Framework Act Please register for participation in the seminar through the link below. 🔗Application to attend seminar (click) 2026-05-13T19:59:52.757Z https://www.daeryunlaw.com/en/notice/6037 What is an insolvency lawyer registered with the Korean Bar Association?An insolvency lawyer registered with the Korean Bar Association is a lawyer with expertise in insolvency cases such as corporate rehabilitation, corporate bankruptcy, personal rehabilitation, and personal bankruptcy.
