28. The above land has already been developed by various companies, but it was not possible to implement the project because it failed to obtain development permission from △△-gun. Furthermore, since it is known that the major shareholder of △△-gun's major shareholder is not only a member of the local constituency council and a graduate school motive and friendly relationship, but also a candidate who belongs to △△-gun's special election for △△△-Gun, and it is known that there is a suspicion that it is not a suspicion that it would give preference to apartment construction to C development company after A was elected as the head of Gun. (2) At the time of the article of this case in light of the contents of expression of the article of this case, readers were able to know that "the candidate of Gun National Assembly member belonging to the local constituency or the National Assembly member of Korea National Assembly is called the plaintiffs," and thus, the article of this case was specific to the plaintiffs.

C. Report of the article of this case

Defendant Kim Jong-tae, without confirming the facts based on the appeal written by an anonymous informant that the Plaintiffs were involved in the purchase of land in the Gyeonggi-do △△△△ Group △△△ Group.

2. Determination

According to the above facts, with respect to whether the plaintiffs were actually involved in the purchase of land in Gyeonggi-do △△△-gun, △△△△-gun, the defendants reported the above false facts on the basis of the appeal prepared by the anonymous informant without any confirmation of such facts, thereby infringing on the objective evaluation that the plaintiffs received from the society.

Accordingly, the defendants as joint tortfeasor should compensate each of the plaintiffs for damages caused by the above defamation.

B. Calculation of damages

The defendants, without any confirmation of facts, appears to have undermined the plaintiffs' external evaluations by reporting the article of this case via newspapers and Internet. In particular, any false facts contained in the article of this case slandered against the plaintiff's National Assembly member, who belongs to the local constituency of Hani-gun, Young-gun, and the local constituency of Hani-gun, and it seems that the head of △△△△-gun could lose the suspension and quality as the candidate for the plaintiff's Gangwon-gu, who was employed as the candidate for the head of Hani-Gun, at the 12th day before the news of this case. The defendant ○○ daily newspaper seems to have made efforts to prevent an impact on the election by inserting a correction report and a letter before the election day after the news of this case, and there seems to have been other efforts to block the influence on the election by posting the correction report of this case and a letter of apology before the election day. In addition, if the plaintiff was subject to criminal punishment after the news of this case, it is reasonable to pay the plaintiff's damages to the plaintiff 100 million won.

Therefore, the Defendants, the joint tortfeasor, are liable for damages arising from the news reporting of the article of this case, and are obligated to pay to the Plaintiff Jung-gu, the amount of KRW 30 million, KRW 50 million from April 13, 2007 when the article of this case was reported, to October 5, 2007, which is the date of this decision, 5% per annum under the Civil Act, and to pay damages for delay at the rate of 20% per annum under the Act on Special Cases Concerning the Promotion, etc. of Legal Proceedings from the next day to the date of full payment.
