2. Determination on the cause of the claim

A. The Plaintiff and the Defendant, which caused the instant claim, concluded a provisional contract on the instant apartment 10 bonds, and entered into an agreement with the Plaintiff to confiscate the provisional contract amount in the event that the Plaintiff did not perform its duties, and to redeem a double of the provisional contract amount in the event that the Defendant did not perform its duties (hereinafter “agreement on penalty for breach of contract”). The Defendant is liable to pay as penalty the double of the provisional contract amount paid by the Plaintiff, as it disposed of the said apartment to a third party before the payment date for the remainder reaches

B. The Defendant, as to whether a provisional contract is concluded, asserts that the Plaintiff (or the Plaintiff’s mother D) only mediated the sale of the instant apartment and that the provisional contract was not concluded between the Plaintiff and the Defendant. Thus, first, the Plaintiff and the Defendant should consider whether the provisional contract was concluded between the Plaintiff and the Defendant for the sale of the instant apartment bonds, and there is no reason to pay money in the name of the deposit if the provisional contract was simply made for brokerage, and when the Plaintiff pays money to the Defendant.
