A. The plaintiff's assertion

The purpose of title trust of the MediationCC on the instant shares (hereinafter “title trust of this case”) is to carry out promptly and smoothly the bypass listing procedure of the instant company (BBB Tech), and the avoidance of global income tax on the MediationCC in this case is that the type of transaction to which the instant shares were transferred from the Park Jong-chul was not a payment of service cost but a stock transaction. As such, the instant title trust of this case should be revoked on the premise that there is no causal link with the comprehensive income tax avoidance against the MediationCC, and that the instant disposition of this case should be revoked on the ground that there was a tax avoidance purpose with respect to the instant title trust of this case.

B. Determination
