AB - In 2007, the number of imprisonment for fine default was 29,891. Among
them 19,114(63.9%) persons were sentenced to fine under 1 million won
and the total amount of their defaulted fines was 15.9 billion(4.9%). In
contrast 422(1.4%) persons were sentenced to fine more than 5 million
won and the total amount of their defaulted fines was 175.5 billion(96.0%).
This made the National Assembly enact a law to adopt community service
as an alternative to imprisonment for fine default in 2009. According to the
law, those who are sentenced to fine of small amount would be able to
apply community service to the court via the prosecutor until 30 days after
confirmation of sentence. The court has a discretion in approving
community service based on willingness to pay fine, incapability of
payment and suitability for community service. But it is unpredictable how
many persons are willing to choose community service instead of paying
fine. And the expansion of the probation office is essential to operate
community service program properly.
