A civil servant surnamed A working in Ongjin County, Incheon, engaged in misconduct including receiving entertainment from work-related individuals and commuting in a vehicle driven by a subordinate employee. From 2019 to 2023, A received entertainment benefits worth approximately 1.37 million won on 41 separate occasions. From 2021 to 2023, A commuted 332 times using a vehicle driven by a subordinate employee. Incheon City imposed a demotion and disciplinary surcharge on A, but A filed an administrative lawsuit claiming it was 'carpooling.' However, the court rejected A's claim and upheld the demotion.
