2. Determination on the cause of the claim

A. The Plaintiff’s assertion 1) The Defendant delivered the instant store to the Plaintiff without restoring it to the original state on January 31, 2013, and the Plaintiff paid KRW 31 million to E on July 8, 2013, and thus, the Defendant is obligated to pay the Plaintiff the expenses incurred in restoring to the original state. Therefore, at the time of the lawsuit claiming the return of deposit, the Plaintiff’s restoration claim to the original state against the Defendant and the Defendant’s claim to return the deposit against the Plaintiff were set-off within KRW 31 million. Since the Plaintiff expressed his intention of set-off through the instant complaint, compulsory execution based on the judgment on the lawsuit claiming the return of deposit should be rejected. 2) The Defendant delayed the payment of the rent during the lease period, and calculated the interest on the overdue rent in accordance with the lease contract, the amount of KRW 93,773,280 as of January 31, 2013 is KRW 93,773,280.

Accordingly, the plaintiff is a claim for interest in arrears through a preparatory document dated June 13, 2016.
