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...

A high school student who lured the perpetrator of a deepfake crime to his home, imprisoned him, and assaulted him. 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."

Sentenced to 1 year and 6 months in prison in the first trial → Sentence reduced to probation Law: “The decision was made considering the agreement with the victim.” A man in his 40s who was put on trial on charges of sexually harassing and abusing a student while working as a part-time high school teacher had his sentence commuted in the appeals court. 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.

The detailed status varies from company to company... 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)

A student who was disciplined for school violence for hitting, bullying, and swearing at a fellow schoolmate filed an administrative lawsuit and won. 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. The two students were close friends at the time, teasing each other and using profanity.[View full article] If close friends hit and swear at each other, wouldn't it be 'school violence'?

“Self-developed technology, instead of protecting it, infringes on basic rights of censorship law firms… weakens competitiveness” Lawyer files constitutional appeal for advertising rules “The legal tech market around the world is growing astronomically, but only Korea is rejecting advanced technology like Heungseon Daewongun erecting a memorial stone. 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)

Patent strategy discussion for pharmaceutical and bio industry innovation Attorney Lee Il-hyung presents Evergreening strategy and patent strategy plan The Evergreening Patent Strategy Seminar, hosted by National Assemblyman Choi Bo-yoon's office (People Power Party, member of the National Assembly Health and Welfare Committee) and organized by Daeryun Law Firm's Medical and Pharmaceutical Group, was successfully concluded on January 24 in the conference room of Daeryun Law Firm's headquarters in Yeouido, Seoul. 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. As a member of the National Assembly’s Health and Welfare Department, I will also do my best for the pharmaceutical bio industry.” Reporter Noh Young-hee (nyh2152@medifonews.com)[View full article] Medi4News - Successful completion of Evergreening patent strategy seminar hosted by Rep.

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.
