C. Accordingly, on December 1, 2011, the Defendant conducted a gift tax investigation on the Plaintiff, and determined and notified OOO of the gift tax on the gift of August 28, 2007 to the Plaintiff based on the provision on the constructive gift of title trust property, deeming that this BB was a title trust to the Plaintiff.

ex officio, the plaintiff sought revocation of the imposition of the gift tax by OOO, but the defendant revoked ex officio the additional tax by OOOO after the closing of the argument in this case.
Therefore, the part concerning the claim for cancellation against the OOO as part of the instant lawsuit is unlawful because there is no subject to the claim for cancellation.
3. Whether the principal tax of this case is lawful
A. The plaintiff's assertion
(1) Whether the defendant's reason for disposition is permitted to exchange for another reason
The addition or modification of the reason for disposition is allowed within the limit that the basic factual relations are identical to the reason for the original disposition. The change of the "date of donation" refers to the change of the object of taxation immediately. Thus, the defendant is not allowed to change the donation date, which serves as the basis for the disposition of this case,
d. The substantive illegality of the disposition of this case
㈎ 이BB은 FF에너지의 대표이사 전LL로부터 약 70~80억 원 상당의 유상증자 주식을 배정받을 수 있는 권리를 부여받아 원고에게 그 중 20억 원 상당의 주식을 배정받도록 하여 주었고, 이에 원고는 지인들로부터 자금을 차용하여 이BB에게 20억 원을 지급하였는데, 이BB은 위 20억 원을 개인용도로 미리 사용하였다. 이BB은 위 20억 원을 충당하기 위하여 자신이 80% 지분을 가지고 실질적으로 경영하고 있는 DD개발 명의로 EE은행으로부터 80억 원을 차용하여 FF에너지 유상증자 대금으로 납입하였는바, 원고가 이BB에게 20억 원을 이미 지급하였으므로 이 사건 주식은 원고가 실제 소유자로 취득한 것이고, 이BB도 이 사건 주식이 원고의 소유임을 인정하고 있다. 다만 원고는 DD개발의 명의상 대표이사이기 때문에 위 차입금에 대한 연대보증 및 이 사건 주식에 질권을 설정하여 준 것이다.
The monetary loan contract between BB and DD development is made ex post facto by clarifying that the BB borrowed for personal purposes and, when auditing, to verify that the actual borrower of the loan is not DD development, not D development.
㈏ 예비적으로, 원고는 이BB에게 20억 원을 지급하여 20억 원 상당의 채권을 가지고 있었고, 이BB의 진술에 의하더라도 FF에너지 유상증자 직전에 이BB에 대하여 10억 원 상당의 채권을 가지고 있었다고 할 것이며, 원고 및 이BB 사이에 적어도 이 사건 주식으로 시세차익이 생기면 원고가 이BB에게 가지고 있는 채권을 변제받는 것으로 상호 묵시적 합의가 있었다고 할 것인바, 이 사건 주식을 원고 명의로 배정받은 것은 적어도 원고가 이BB에 대하여 가지고 있는 채권을 담보하기 위한 목적이라고 할 것이므로 원고와 이BB 사이에 명의신탁 합의가 있었다고 볼 수는 없다.
B. Relevant statutes

1. A fact-finding certificate drawn up on August 2010
Around May 2007, ○○ (Plaintiff) paid 2 billion won as the price for capital increase with consideration by participating in FF energy capital increase with the recommendation of the principal (BB) and distributed shares equivalent to that amount.
○ Around the time of the above capital increase, the principal borrowed money from the Z to participate in the capital increase and requested the Z to present data to verify even if the shares were allocated, and requested the privateA to prepare and request a written contract for stock purchase so that the shares equivalent to KRW 220 million among the shares allocated upon capital increase can be seen as the principal.
Pursuant to such request, AA made a delivery with a certificate of personal seal impression attached, while signing and sealing the number and value of shares to be traded and the seller’s personal information to the effect that the OOO shares of the above company are sold at KRW 220 million.
(2) The answer letter dated August 19, 201
○○○ had the LAL promised to allow the principal (BB) to participate in the FF Energy Capital Increase increase amounting to KRW 7 billion. At that time, he accepted the said terms and conditions, but he did not have any money and did not participate in the capital increase increase with the loan.
The reasons for acquisition in the name of the privateA(Plaintiff), JungG each KRW 2 billion, HaH, HaJ, and YJ each KRW 1.5 billion, and YK 1 billion in the capital increase with capital increase. (1) The reasons for acquisition in the name of the privateA(Plaintiff), JungG each KRW 1.5 billion, except for the privateA, are those who are not aware of, and are designated by the lending bank to secure the security.
The reasons why the shares (7 billion won) of the privateA, the PG, the Court of Justice, and the HaH are offered as a security for the loans of DD development. (The answer was that the three shares except the privateA do not want to be offered, but should be so provided by the EE Bank, so it was forced that it would be done from the point of receiving the loans.
○ (L) On April 13, 2007, the KN 100 million won, the KN 100 million won, the KN 40 million won on April 23, 2007, the KN 30 billion won, the private PP 150 million won on April 27, 2007, deposited into the OMF’s OMF’s account, and what is the relationship with EM, and what is the reasons the KU and the privateP was deposited. (The answer is that the KN 100 million won was the driver of EM, and the account was traded in his own name. The above reasons for the deposit are that the principal received the money borrowed from EM. It is not accurate where it was written. However, it is the same as the principal who paid the money using the bonds.
On May 15, 2007, the amount of KRW 800,000,00 of the privateA was deposited into the SS account. The relationship with the SS and what is the reasons for the deposit by the privateAA is. (The answer) The SS is not a person who attempts to engage in a stock transaction-related business but a person who used to engage in such business. However, the SS is memory as a person who attempted to engage in a stock transaction-related business, and the principal was at the time of the AB venture capital increase, a vice-chairperson, and was at the time of the AB Venture capital increase, but the AB Venture capital increase was at the time of the president, but the AB Venture capital increase was not at the time of the failure of the president. Although the reasons for the deposit made by the privateA could not be memory, it is thought that the AB Venture capital increase in Korea

(1) The fact that the Plaintiff received money directly is not memory. However, since the Plaintiff had to pay money on behalf of the Plaintiff, and the Plaintiff had continued to pay money transactions with the Plaintiff, then the Plaintiff had to pay money to the Plaintiff up to KRW 1 billion with capital increase with capital increase with capital increase with capital increase with capital increase. There is no other statement in the name of the payment for capital increase with capital increase.
The reason why DD Development borrowed KRW 8.5 billion from the EE bank and acquired shares of KRW 2.0 billion in the name of the EE bank is. (Refluence) Since it had already been sufficient to secure the loan of EE bank with three stocks other than the EEA, the remainder was paid with the changed amount of money, the principal of the loan was repaid, and the remainder was to be paid. At the time, DD Development was 821 won at the time, and the market price was 3-4,000 won at the time.

On August 8, 2007, at the time of FF Energy’s capital increase, the former L had an opportunity to participate in the capital increase with approximately KRW 7 billion, so that the former L had an opportunity to participate in the capital increase with the capital increase, the former L has made it possible for the latter to receive an allocation equal to KRW 2 billion by shares equivalent to that of KRW 2 billion.
○ Stocks issued with capital increase shares owned by the principal shall be memoryd as approximately OOO shares.
Since ○○ himself was engaged in money transactions with another person’s account, such as ordinary M, he would be considered to have sent the amount of money transferred to the account at the time of MaM, etc. to the principal. The principal used the money with bond interest, etc.
The loan was received in the name of DDR development in which the principal was a major shareholder because the loan was received to pay the capital increase for the shares issued by ○○ own stocks, and the loan was received in the name of DDR. Since the privateA used the funds to be received in advance, the loan was also made including the capital increase for the shares issued by the privateA.
○○ does not borrow the name of the privateA for the shares owned by the principal when capital increase is issued.

As of November 1, 2007 through December 2, 2007, 50 million won remitted to the account under the name of MaM was confirmed to have been recovered at KRW 200,000,000,000 from 1.1. to 2.1.2 of the same month, it is reasonable to recover KRW 500,000,000,000,000 from anyone who received the criminal complaint.

The 200 million won out of the above amount is consistent with the assertion that the N was repaid KRW 200 million. (The answer is the same as the B was operated beyond the president of the Y, and the NA played a role of raising funds. The 200 million won is considered to have been collected. However, it may not be included because the Y did not go to the Y because the N was a tax issue.

D. Determination
(1) Whether the defendant's reason for disposition is permitted to exchange for another reason
In an appeal litigation seeking the revocation of an administrative disposition, a disposition agency may add or change other grounds which are the basis of the original disposition to the extent that the basic factual relations are identical, but the basic factual relations are identical to the same in a basic social fact, based on the specific facts prior to the legal evaluation of the grounds for the disposition. In cases where the disposition agency merely adds or alters only statutes on the basis of the disposition, or specifically indicates the grounds for the initial disposition, to the extent that it does not change specific facts at the time of the disposition, it cannot be deemed that the new grounds for the disposition are added or modified (see, e.g., Supreme Court Decisions 2004Du4482, Nov. 26, 2004; 2006Du4899, Feb. 8, 2007).
On the other hand, the defendant's disposition of this case is about the title trust of OO's shares issued with capital increase on or around August 2007 by the plaintiff, and the change of the date of the gift among the grounds of the disposition of this case is merely about the change of the base date of appraisal. Thus, it is reasonable to view that the defendant is allowed to change the grounds of the disposition as above in exchange for the same factual basis (the defendant should consider the same day as the base date of assessment of gift tax on August 28, 2007, on the premise that the date of the donation in this case was the date of the transfer as OO's assessment, and calculated the assessment value per share of the shares of this case as the base date of assessment of gift tax and changed the date of donation to August 17, 2007. However, according to the statement of 23 evidence, the assessment date of 1O's shares as the base date of assessment on August 17, 2007 can not be deemed unlawful, since it can be deemed that the assessment amount of principal tax of this case.
B. Whether the principal part of the disposition of this case is unlawful
㈎ 앞서 본 인정사실 및 변론 전체의 취지로부터 인정되는 다음의 사정 등을 종합하여 보면, 이 사건 주식의 실제 소유자는 이BB이라고 봄이 상당하고, 원고가 주장하는 바와 같이 2007. 4. 13.경부터 2007. 5. 14.경 사이에 15억 3,000만 원 상당의 자금이 정MM 명의 계좌 등을 통하여 이BB에게 전달된 사실 및 원고가 제출한 반증들만으로는 위 인정을 뒤집기 부족하므로, 이 사건 처분 중 본세 부과처분은 적법하다.
① If the Plaintiff intended to receive shares in its name for the purpose of actual ownership of the instant shares, it is not necessary to pay 2 billion won to B in advance, and it is a normal way to pay the FF Energy in the name of the Plaintiff when allocating the instant shares. As such, 2 billion won which the Plaintiff paid to B in advance is the money for another purpose or the money that the Plaintiff raised and delivered to B by B when acquiring FF Energy shares.
② The payment of new shares to the instant shares was made in the form of money borrowed in the name of D Development, where the BB had 80% equity shares and exercises actual management rights.
③ The actual repayment of the loan of this case between D and B was agreed between D and B to be responsible by B, and the pledge was established on OOO including the stocks of this case as a security for the loan of this case (i.e., it is reasonable to deem B, the actual borrower of the loan of this case, was the actual owner of the OOO, including the stocks of this case).
④ If the Plaintiff paid KRW 2 billion to the BB and actually owned the instant shares, it seems to be an example that the Plaintiff, a representative director under the name of DD development, provided the instant shares as a pledge, apart from that of joint and several sureties, or agreed to additionally repay the borrowed amount equivalent to KRW 2 billion with the instant shares.
⑤ From the door-to-door on August 19, 201, thisB confirmed that: (a) the money received from an account under the name of PE from the Plaintiff on April 4, 2007 to around May 5, 2007, from the KN, the privateP, etc., was received from the Plaintiff; (b) “B did not receive any money from the Plaintiff under the name of the Plaintiff; and (c) the security for the EE bank loans to three shares other than the FF interest; and (d) the remainder was sufficient to obtain stocks under the name of the privateA and make profits from the market price; (b) the outstanding profits from the instant shares were fully paid; (c) the principal of the loan was fully paid; and (d) the remainder was to be paid by the principal.
④ The Plaintiff issued the instant shares worth KRW 220 million to the BB upon the request of the BB, accompanied by the Plaintiff’s certificate of personal seal impression, to the sales contract, with respect to the purchase of the shares equivalent to KRW 220 million out of the instant shares. It is an example that the Plaintiff transferred the Plaintiff’s right to dispose of a part of his own shares acquired by his money to the BB without any consideration. It accords with the common sense that the said act is deemed that the actual owner of the instant shares is the BB and the Plaintiff was subject to the title trust.
7) The 200 million won remitted to the GN on November 1, 2007, which was confirmed to have been repaid to the GN with respect to the KRW 500 million remitted by the GN to the GN under the name of MM, is not consistent with the Plaintiff’s assertion that the said money was paid to the EN with respect to the said money as capital borrowed from the GN and paid to the EN as capital for capital increase.
① Since the SS, which received KRW 80 million from the Plaintiff, mainly takes charge of the AB Venture Fund Subscription Business, it is difficult to readily conclude that the said KRW 800 million was the acquisition price of the instant shares.
9) The instant disposition is made against the Plaintiff, and the gift tax is imposed on the gift accrued from the FF Energy Capital Increase issued by the Plaintiff, and both the Plaintiff and the BB were in a situation where the instant shares were deemed to be owned by the Plaintiff. Accordingly, the statement made by the Plaintiff and the relevant parties after the imposition of the said gift tax is lower credibility.
(10) There was no loan certificate between the Plaintiff and the BB regarding KRW 2 billion, and the Plaintiff did not take any measures to secure control over the instant shares in the course of establishing a pledge or establishing a sales contract on the instant shares.
㈏ 원고는 예비적으로 이 사건 주식을 원고 명의로 배정받은 것은 원고가 이BB에게 가지고 있던 채권에 대한 담보 목적이고, 이를 명의신탁으로 볼 수는 없다고 주장하는바, 이 사건 주식이 이BB의 소유임에도 원고 명의로 배정받은 원인이 채권 담보 목적이라는 사정은 이를 주장하는 원고가 입증하여야 할 것이다.
The following facts are revealed: (a) during the period from April 13, 2007 to May 14, 2007, the KN, privatePP’s funds were delivered to B; (b) around that time, the NN, privatePP’s funds were delivered to B; and (c) around that time, this case’s funds were used to pay interest on bonds, etc.; (d) however, according to the evidence and the overall purport of the arguments mentioned above, the Plaintiff and B have been engaged in money transactions for various purposes; (e) around April 13 to 5, 2007, there were financial transactions for the payment of the AB venture capital or the fund for capital increase with capital increase; (e) the KN and privateP’s funds were delivered to B without undergoing the Plaintiff; and (e) the KNN and privateP’s funds were funds raised by e.g., the Plaintiff’s funds, not the Plaintiff, and thus, it is difficult to deem the Plaintiff’s funds to be used as collateral payment for the Plaintiff’s funds.
4. Conclusion
Therefore, the part concerning the claim for cancellation of the OO part of the Disposition in this case is unlawful and dismissed, and the remainder of the plaintiff's claim shall be dismissed as it is without merit. Since the judgment of the court of first instance is partially unfair, it is to revise the judgment of the court of first instance as above, and it is so decided as per Disposition by the application of Article 32 of the Administrative Litigation Act with respect to the litigation costs as to the above rejection part
