In that case you read only the clickbait headline. The actual reason was that he was unable to show he had ever shown a shred of interest in being anti war.
The court made the decision based on the fact that he had never volunteered for any anti-war charities or protests, and he was unable to show any other proof he supported those causes. The PUBG issue was just a circumstantial contributing factor towards that overall argument, and not the main reason he was jailed. Had he been able to show his beliefs were sincere it would have been irrelevant. It's just being emphasised heavily because it gets clicks and attention.
That ruling (or law if that’s how it’s written) is some bs. That’s like saying that in order to prove that you don’t believe in beating up homeless people you have to provide evidence that you volunteer at a homeless shelter.
That's the mandatory part of the mandatory military service
