2. Determination on the lawfulness of the instant lawsuit

A. The defendant's defense prior to the merits asserts that, insofar as a final and conclusive judgment and a final payment order exists with respect to the debt of this case, the plaintiff should file a lawsuit of objection to exclude enforcement force, and that the lawsuit of this case seeking confirmation of discharge of the debt of this case is unlawful as there is no benefit of confirmation.

(b) Litigations for confirmation shall be permitted in cases where there is any danger or lack existing in rights or legal status, and obtaining a judgment of confirmation is the most effective and appropriate means to eliminate such danger or omission, i.e., benefit in the protection of rights of confirmation.

However, the plaintiff's assertion is against the defendant.
