3. Judgment on the defendants' assertion

A. Determination on the assertion that the contract is void

Defendant Samsung Construction and Defendant 2 did not go through the resolution of the board of directors when they take over the obligation to the Plaintiff of the house even after Defendant Samsung Construction, and thus, the above assumption of obligation is null and void. However, there is no evidence as to the fact that the above assumption of obligation is essential to the board of directors or that even if it is essential to the above assumption of obligation, the Plaintiff knew or could have known of such fact. Thus, the above Defendants’ assertion is without merit.

B. Determination on the assertion of non-performance of the condition precedent

However, since the above suspension conditions have not been fulfilled, the above assumption of obligation has not become effective. However, there is no evidence as to the existence of the inherent suspension conditions as alleged by the above Defendants. Thus, the above Defendants’ assertion is without merit.

C. Judgment on the ground for extinctive prescription defense

(1) Defendant Chyeong Construction, Defendant 2’s defense

The above defendants defense that the plaintiff's loan claims of this case against the above defendants and the claim for indemnity of this case were extinguished by the statute of limitations. Thus, although the repayment period of the loan of this case was October 20, 1999, it was lost by the benefit of light and around November 1, 1998, the above facts are as seen above. According to the evidence No. 1, it can be acknowledged that the defendant SamGyeong Construction and the defendant No. 2 decided to pay the amount of each subrogated payment stated in the separate sheet No. 1 "the details of guarantee and statement of indemnity" from September 30, 199 to March 31, 2001, it is clear that the remaining part of the claim for indemnity of this case was paid in seven installments from September 30, 199 to March 31, 201, and the lawsuit of this case was filed on June 25, 1998; the expiration date of each payment period of this case from June 19, 1998;

Meanwhile, according to the evidence Nos. 7 and 5 evidence Nos. 7 and 5, the plaintiff filed an application for provisional attachment of the amount of money equivalent to 1,127m2, 864m2, 1,810m2, and 1,810m2 of the same Ri (hereinafter referred to as "3m2") and executed on September 9, 2004, on the part of the amount of subrogated payment to the Korea Housing & Commercial Bank of this case (attached Form 1, 1, 1,3 of "the details of the guarantee and the statement of indemnity amount") among the amount of the indemnity amount of this case, which is the one time payment period of the amount of the loan amount of this case and the amount of the indemnity amount of this case as the claim claim, and the amount of the subrogation payment to the Korea Housing and Commercial Bank of Korea, which is the claim amount, shall be deemed to have been suspended on or before September 30, 199. Accordingly, the remainder of the period of extinctive prescription of the defendant construction shall be deemed to have expired.

In addition, the plaintiff re-claimed that the period of extinctive prescription was interrupted because the plaintiff filed a judicial claim seeking the performance of an obligation against a house even after June 8, 2002 and August 12, 2005, which was before the expiration of the period of extinctive prescription. However, even though the plaintiff's re-claim does not naturally affect the effect of extinctive prescription to Defendant 2, who is the counter-contractor construction and joint and several surety of the same defendant, the counter-claim of the plaintiff, as a result of a judicial claim against a house, and as a matter of course, it does not need further review.

(2) Defendant extreme Dongdong case, Defendant 4’s defense

The above defendants defenses that the plaintiff's loan claims of this case against the above defendants and the claim for indemnity of this case were extinguished by the statute of limitations. Thus, according to the plaintiff's statement No. 4, the above defendants approved the loan obligations of this case and the claim for indemnity of this case on or around May 20, 200 and agreed to repay them in six installments until August 31, 2001. The plaintiff's lawsuit of this case is obvious in the records that the plaintiff's lawsuit of this case was filed on August 31, 2001, which was five years after the expiration of the commercial statute of limitations from August 31, 2001 to May 27, 2007, since each of the above claims against the above defendants against the above defendants were already extinguished by the statute of limitations prior to the filing of the lawsuit of this case, the above defendants' defense has merit.

As to this, the plaintiff, even after June 8, 2002 and August 12, 2005, prior to the expiration of the statute of limitations, filed a judicial claim seeking the performance of an obligation against a house, and therefore, the said statute of limitations has been interrupted. However, even though a judicial claim against a house does not naturally affect the effect of the interruption of prescription against Defendant 4, who is the counter-joint and several surety of the same defendant, as the counter-joint and several surety of the defendant, as a result of a judicial claim against the house, and thus, the re-claim of the plaintiff is without merit without further review.

D. Sub-committee

Therefore, with regard to the amount of subrogation against the Korea Housing and Commercial Bank of Korea among the amount of indemnity of this case jointly and severally against the Plaintiff: KRW 515,552,705 [the sum of the amount stated in attached Table 1’s details of guarantee and statement of indemnity amount” 1 through 3] 498,179,383 + the sum of the amount stated in 17,373,322] of the amount of indemnity amount 498,179,383] and the amount of delay delay damages [the sum mentioned in 17,373,322 of the items of paragraph (d)]; among them, 498,179,383 won from June 15, 199, the date of subrogation, 199 to September 14, 199; 16% per annum from the following day to the date of adjudication; 20% per annum of delay damages from the following day to the date of maturity 21, 2008.
