The man found the female prosecutor cute and snuck into the prosecutor’s office in southern Seoul in a form of stalking, landing a fine of 5 million won ($4,500).
The 42-year-old Shin had been indicted to sneaking into the prosecutor’s office to try and meet the female prosecutor twice last July and August.
A judge of the southern Seoul district court said Shin has a long record of stalking but nothing serious happened and the female prosecutor was not harmed in any way.
Shin has undergone numerous psychiatric treatments for love sickness since 2000 and had previously been fined 3 million won ($2,600) and handed a sentence of six months suspended for one year in 2007.
In 2009, he was given a sentence of six months in prison and mandatory rehabilitation on similar charges.
