However, in fact, the Defendant had a personal obligation equivalent to KRW 20 million at the time, and did not own an apartment house with permanent residence, and was thought to use the money borrowed from the injured party for personal debt repayment, etc., so even if borrowing the money from the injured party, there was no intention or ability to repay the borrowed money.
