Facts without dispute over the basis of recognition, Gap's statements, Gap's evidence 5, 6, 12, 19, 21, 22, Eul's evidence 2 through 6, and 8 through 13, and the purport of the whole pleadings.

C. Determination

1) Determination on the first argument (the nature of the instant amount)

Generally, in a lawsuit seeking the revocation of a tax imposition disposition, the burden of proving the fact of taxation requirements is a taxable person. However, in a case where it is proved that the fact of taxation requirements has been presumed in light of the empirical rule in the specific litigation process, unless it proves that the taxpayer is inappropriate to apply the empirical rule, or that there are special circumstances to exclude the application of such empirical rule in the pertinent case, it cannot be readily concluded that the pertinent tax disposition is an unlawful disposition that fails to meet the taxation requirements (see, e.g., Supreme Court Decisions 2002Du6392, Nov. 13, 2002; 2015Du60341, Jun. 10, 2016).

Although the Plaintiff asserts that the instant amount is not the Plaintiff’s income but the Plaintiff’s investment in Hh and 3, considering the facts acknowledged earlier and the overall purport of each of the evidence and arguments as a whole, the instant amount is not the investment in Hh and 3, but the Plaintiff’s overseas language training expenses for the students of cc and d c and d c through c and d d d, and it is sufficiently recognized that it was the income accrued to the Plaintiff. The Plaintiff’s assertion on this part is rejected.

A) The most essential part of each of the instant contracts, which the Plaintiff submitted as evidence, as the amount of investment in this case, is hhhhhhh and 3, investing each of the above contracts in cc and dd and acquiring x, xx, xx, and hhh and 3, an investor, upon approval from the government, shall convert the convertible bonds into common shares, and until then, the Plaintiff shall receive interest pursuant to the specified interest rate on the investment amount. However, it is recognized that the Plaintiff prepared each of the instant contracts without the plan to issue the convertible bonds from the beginning. Thus, it is difficult to view that hhhh and 3 as a normal investment contract because it is difficult to view that there was no way to guarantee the profit agreement or collection of the convertible bonds while investing in large amounts as above, and thus it is difficult to believe the remainder as well as the relevant part of the instant contracts. In particular, in case of c and dc with the Plaintiff, it appears that the aforementioned contracts have been executed as the capital prior to hh and 23h c.

B) C and D have been established and operated solely by the Plaintiff without the involvement of AA or BB, and the HSBC account of c and D c and C c, in which Hh and III remitted the instant amount, was managed independently by the Plaintiff. If Hh and C and D c, as the Plaintiff’s assertion, are an actual investor, it is difficult to understand that the Plaintiff was fully responsible for the execution of the said investment amount while investing in the business required for more than a few years, and did not take any measures to prevent the Plaintiff’s diversion of the Plaintiff’s investment amount. Indeed, in light of the fact that the Plaintiff withdraws from the said account and purchased the right to use the hhh and C d d d d d e e e e e e e e e e e e e e e e e e e e e e e e e e e e e e e e e e e e e e e e e e e e e.

C) Hh remitted the amount of foreign language training expenses (in 2008 and 2009, 32% of local education expenses) to DD’s account from the travel company. The Plaintiff issued a false commission claim with the amount of money to be transferred to Hh, and clearly stated that the amount of money to be transferred is “import” or “profit” in its set. iii also remitted a certain ratio (48.5% of the remaining amount after deducting the expenses in case of 2011, and 45% in case of 2012) of the students’ fish training expenses received from the travel company to Cc and D’s account.

D) The Plaintiff’s assertion that an investment was made from Hh and 3, but it was difficult to accept the Plaintiff’s allegation that the Plaintiff was unaware of the financial resources of AA and BB, the operator, or the process of making investments in Hh and 3. In addition, during the re-audit conducted by the Plaintiff against the instant disposition, the Plaintiff prepared a written confirmation that the instant amount was other income accrued to the Plaintiff, such as the content of the instant disposition.

2) Determination on the second argument (whether unlawful income has been lost)

In this case, the fact that Hh and III demanded the Plaintiff to return the investment amount on July 2013, 2013, that a check with each of the above companies was issued and sent to the registered location of Hh in the HSBC 00 at HSBC c and Dd, and that the fact that Hh and III received each of the checks was written as above.

However, unlike the case of confiscation or collection of illegal income, solely on the ground that the person to whom the illegal income does not bear the obligation of return voluntarily returns the income to the person to whom it was originally reverted, it cannot be deemed that the possibility of loss of economic benefits inherent in the illegal income has been realized and that such income has not been realized. Furthermore, the Plaintiff planned and led from the beginning the establishment and overall transactions of hh, the operation of hh is being carried out under the Plaintiff’s involvement, the time when the Plaintiff requested the return of the investment amount was under the tax investigation against the Plaintiff, and the time when hhh and 3 requested the return of the investment amount was under the tax investigation against the Plaintiff on May 21, 2013, before the tax investigation was requested for the return of the said investment amount, it is difficult to view that the amount remitted to hhh and 3 had already been returned to hh and bbbbbbb school students’ overseas schools to have been selected as an agent of the Plaintiff, which had a great influence on the Plaintiff, and the purport of the entire check and the purport of the Plaintiff’s claim for return.

3. Conclusion

Therefore, the plaintiff's claim is dismissed as it is without merit. It is so decided as per Disposition.
