D. The defendant's disposition

1) On July 28, 2014, the Defendant issued a corrective order and a penalty surcharge payment order on the ground that the following acts (hereinafter referred to as “instant collaborative act”) of the Plaintiff constituted an unfair collaborative act prohibited under Article 19(1)8 of the Monopoly Regulation and Fair Trade Act (hereinafter referred to as the “Fair Trade Act”), under Article 2014-165 of the plenary session’s resolution by the plenary session, against the Plaintiff (hereinafter referred to as “instant disposition”).

In relation to Kimpo-ro, six companies agree to form a consortium as shown in the foregoing table, to participate in the bidding formally at the bid price agreed in advance by the consortium for the development of Hanpo-ro industry so that the consortiums can receive the successful bid, and the plaintiff agreed not to participate in the bidding (hereinafter referred to as the "agreement for the bidding for the Mapo-ro project"), and in relation to the remaining Yangpo-ro project, six companies constitute a consortium as described in the above table, and the Dopo-construction consortiums agreed to participate in the bidding formally at the bid price agreed in advance in order to ensure that the Dopo-ro construction consortiums can receive the successful bid, and the Dopo-ro construction will not participate in the bidding (hereinafter referred to as the "Nampo-gu Construction consortium").

2) The Defendant imposed a penalty surcharge on the Plaintiff in accordance with Articles 22 and 55-3 of the Fair Trade Act, Article 61 and attached Table 2 of the Enforcement Decree of the same Act, and the former public notice of detailed criteria, etc. for imposing a penalty surcharge (amended by Defendant Notice No. 2010-9, Oct. 20, 2010; hereinafter referred to as “public notice of penalty surcharge”), and the specific process for calculating the penalty surcharge is as follows.

A) Basic penalty surcharges

(1) Relevant sales

In relation to the collaborative act of this case, the ZS Construction consortium entered into a contract for the construction work with the bid for Kimpo Construction Project and the consortium for Koyang Construction Project with each successful bid for the Namyang Construction Project. The sales related to the collaborative act of this case shall be deemed to be the contract amount which the ZS Construction consortium and the Zok Construction consortium entered into for the first time in relation to each of the construction works of this case.

(2) Standard imposition rate

Inasmuch as it is obvious that the collaborative act in this case results in only competition-restricting effects due to the nature of bid collusion, and considering the fact that the Cream Center Facility Corporation, which is the object of the collaborative act in this case, has a significant impact on the finance of the State and local governments, it constitutes a 's significant violation' and public notice of penalty surcharge IV.1.C. (1)(a) applies 10% of the base imposition rate under paragraph (1).

(3) Criteria for calculation

The relevant sales revenue amounting to 58,064,00,000 won (excluding value-added tax) shall be multiplied by 10%, and the Plaintiff did not participate in the bidding of Kimpo Corporation according to the agreement, so public notice of penalty surcharge shall be 4,828,72,727 won (excluding value-added tax) multiplied by 10%, and 2,903,200,000 won, which has been reduced by 1/2 of the calculation criteria pursuant to the provisions of paragraph (1)(e)(2) of this Article, and 4,828,72,727,2727 won (excluding value-added tax) shall be determined based on each calculation basis.

(b)the primary coordination by an element of action;

The basic penalty surcharge is the first adjustment calculation criteria because there is no reason to adjust due to the period and frequency of violation, etc.

C) Second co-ordination by elements of the actor

The plaintiff actively cooperates in the investigation by recognizing the fact of violation in the course of the investigation, such as aiding in the judgment of illegality, etc., so 20% of the first adjustment criteria shall be mitigated.

D) Determination of imposition penalty surcharges

The Plaintiff participated in the bidding by organizing a joint supply and demand organization, and the share of the Plaintiff is merely 28% of the total amount of unjust enrichment. Accordingly, 20% of the standard for the second adjustment shall be reduced. The Plaintiff’s average net income for the immediately preceding business year, the preceding business year, and the preceding business year as of the date of deliberation of the instant case on the financial statements finalized by the Plaintiff, shall be reduced by 50% in consideration of the fact that the average weighted amount of net income for the immediately preceding business year, the preceding business year, and the preceding business year is insufficient to have actual ability as a enemy, and 2,320,000,000 shall be imposed penalty surcharges

[Reasons for Recognition] Unsatisfy, entry in Gap evidence 1 and 2 (including provisional number), the purport of the whole pleadings

2. Whether the instant disposition is lawful

A. The plaintiff's assertion

1) The assertion on the bid collusion for Kimpo-ro

The Plaintiff waived from participating in the bidding of each of the instant construction works on the technical and human resources condition, but around April 2009, at the Doste Construction and Corna Construction, the Plaintiff accepted the request from Doste Construction to participate in the bidding of Hayang Construction, and no agreement was reached with Doste Construction, etc. on the non-participation of the bidding of Mayang Construction, and no agreement was reached on the non-participation of the bidding of Manpo Construction, etc., and the Plaintiff did not participate in all of the agreements in the process of the bidding price and bidding price after the six major meetings.

2) As to the order to pay the instant penalty surcharge

The instant penalty surcharge payment order is unlawful because it deviates from and abused discretionary power for the following reasons.

A) The illegality in calculating the relevant sales amount

(1) The Plaintiff was a business operator who was originally planned to participate in the tender for the Southern Yangyang Construction Project and was not anticipated to participate. Even if there was an agreement on the Plaintiff’s failure to participate in the tender for Kim Yangyang Construction Project, if the Plaintiff obtained the status of a consortium as a consortium for the Nam Yangyang Construction Project in return for the agreement, it is accepted as a price for the agreement, and therefore, the part concerning the Nam Yangyang Construction project should be excluded from the relevant sales amount.

(2) Even if the Plaintiff’s collusion is recognized with respect to all of the instant construction works, in light of the fact that the instant case does not have any structural difference with the case of the agreement on the division of a construction section, the relevant sales should be limited to the portion of the Namyang Construction Work.

B) Violation of the application of the imposition standard rate

The instant collaborative act was committed in the course of receiving cooperation from other enterprisers under the lead of china Construction and china Construction. Even if the Plaintiff participated in an unfair collaborative act, it would be too excessive to apply the imposition rate of 10%, which is the highest to the Plaintiff, considering the degree of the Plaintiff’s participation as the same as china Construction and china Construction, which is the lead of the Plaintiff’s participation. In addition, the degree of the Plaintiff’s participation is obvious difference with the other enterprisers who participated in it.

C) Illegal conduct that did not consider mitigation by simple participation

The penalty surcharge against the Plaintiff should be mitigated in light of precedents and the details of penalty surcharges, as the Plaintiff took part in the collaborative act of this case simply or carried out an abstract role.

D) Violation of the decision of imposing penalty surcharge

(1) The Plaintiff merely accepted the proposal as to whether he will participate as a member of the consortium in the 2nd group of six companies, and did not participate in the 2nd group of the 2nd group of the Namyang Construction Project, but did not participate in the 2nd group of the 2nd group of the 2nd group of the 2nd group of the 2nd group of the 2nd group of the 2nd group of the 2nd group of the 2nd group of the 2nd group of the 2

(2) In addition, the Plaintiff’s participation in the instant collaborative act is extremely low, and the Plaintiff responded to the Plaintiff’s passive request, and the benefits acquired in relation to the Kimpo-sul Construction did not transfer to all others, and the Defendant arbitrarily decided to impose penalty surcharges.

(b) the relevant provisions;

Attached Form 2 shall be as shown in attached Table 2.

C. Determination

1) Determination as to the assertion on the bid collusion for Kimpo-ro

A) Facts of recognition

(1) around March 2009, the public announcement date of each of the instant construction works, A and Calul Construction B set forth a general discussion on each of the instant construction works, which was prior to the public announcement date of each of the instant construction works, and set forth the organization of the successful bidder and the public tender participants (one-time called “one-time public tender participants”) with the consortium.

(2) At the end of April 2009, the plaintiff C took part in 6 meetings as to the bidding of each of the instant construction works since 'C' had a six group of members in relation to the bidding of the instant construction works,' and 'C' attended a six group of members in contact, and at that place, the plaintiff will participate in the bidding of NAS construction and Copul construction, and the plaintiff will be a member of the consortium in the bidding of South Yangyang-ju Corporation without participating in the bidding of NAS construction and Copul construction.' Accordingly, the above discussion was decided to participate in the bidding, including 'C', and accordingly, the plan for construction of chip construction and Copul construction, such as the contents of the above discussion, was finalized.5)

(3) As can be determined as above, at each of the instant construction contracts, NAS construction consortiums, Copy construction consortiums, and Russiums’ participation in the bidding, and at the bidding for Kimpo Construction, NAS construction consortiums were finally determined as qualified for design in the bidding for Nampo Construction, and all of the contracts for each of the construction contracts concluded with the Korea Land Corporation as seen earlier.

[Reasons for Recognition] Gap's evidence Nos. 6 through 9, Eul's evidence Nos. 1, 3 through 6, 8 through 10, and the purport of the whole pleadings

B) Determination as to whether the Plaintiff’s failure to participate in the bid for Kimpo Corporation

(1) The "unfair collaborative act" prohibited under Article 19 (1) of the Fair Trade Act is an agreement on an act that unfairly limits competition, and at this time, the "agreement" includes not only the express agreement but also implied agreement. However, since the essence of the agreement is that two or more enterprisers communicate with each other, it cannot be recognized as a matter of course because there is an appearance consistent with the "unfair collaborative act" listed in each subparagraph of the above provision, and there must be proof of circumstances to recognize the reciprocity of communication between enterprisers, and the burden of proof on such agreement is against the defendant who orders corrective measures, etc. (see, e.g., Supreme Court Decision 2013Du16951, Jul. 24, 2014).

(2) In light of the above-mentioned legal principles by comprehensively taking account of the above-mentioned facts and the above-mentioned evidences, it can be sufficiently recognized that the plaintiff agreed not to participate in Kimpo Corporation at the above 6 groups. In this regard, it is reasonable to view that the plaintiff obtained the share of a consortium in the construction of joint ventures, who is in the position of the successful bidder of Yangyang-ju Corporation. The plaintiff's above assertion is without merit.

(A) In the course of the discussion on March 2009, A and Culul Construction B recognized the Plaintiff as a potential competitor for each of the instant construction works, instead of allowing the Plaintiff to not participate in the bidding on Kimpo Construction, granted the Plaintiff as a member of Culul Construction consortium in the tender on the Namyang Construction Project instead of allowing the Plaintiff to participate in the bidding on Kimpo Construction, thereby obtaining a successful bid on the instant construction works, and thereby granting the Plaintiff as a member of Culul Construction consortium.

(B) In fact, prior to the public announcement of the tender of each of the instant construction works, the Plaintiff was able to participate in the tender for the construction works similar to each of the instant construction works by combining technology with other companies possessing thermal decomposition convergence technology prior to the public announcement of the tender of each of the instant construction works. At least, the Plaintiff was able to participate in the consultation with other companies by combining technology with each of the instant construction works.

(C) On April 209, the Plaintiff participated in the meetings of six companies at the end of April 2009, and the Plaintiff’s meeting was aware that it was a group for each of the instant construction works. In light of the above explanation, C consented to the Plaintiff’s participation in the aforementioned bidding plan, including the Plaintiff’s agreement, by recognizing the Plaintiff as a potential competitor at the time of hearing the explanation. In order to exclude the Plaintiff from the competitors of each of the instant construction works, it was reasonable to view that C, as at the time of considering the above explanation, given the Plaintiff a share as a member of the consortium to exclude the Plaintiff from the competitors of each of the instant construction works, was given to the Plaintiff as a member of the consortium in order to attract the Plaintiff from the competitor of each of the instant construction works, and that it was difficult to participate in the bidding in the Kimpo Construction with the consent of each of the instant construction works, thereby excluding the possibility of other competition in the instant construction works, and thus, the Plaintiff appears to have consented to the bid plan.

(D) As above, the Plaintiff’s consent to participate in the bid for Kimpo-Tech seems to be due to the fact that at the tender for the Namyang Construction Project, the Plaintiff was granted a higher share than the development of the Hanpo-Tech industry as a technical member.

(E) Although there was no specific discussion about the bid price of Kimpo-soon at the 6th group, and thereafter, it appears that the consortium and Russium have exchanged specific intent about the bid price. However, as long as the Plaintiff agreed to participate in the bidding of Kimpo-so in the 6th group, the circumstance that there was no specific discussion about the bid price of Kimpo-soon at the time does not affect the conclusion that there was no specific discussion about the bid price of Kimpo-soon.

2) Judgment on the assertion on the instant order to pay the penalty surcharge

A) Relevant legal principles

In full view of the provisions of Articles 6, 17, 22, 24-2, 28, 31-2, and 34-2 of the Fair Trade Act, the defendant has discretion to determine whether to impose a penalty surcharge on a violation of the Fair Trade Act, and if a penalty surcharge is to be imposed, the amount of a penalty surcharge is to be determined in detail within a certain extent provided for in the Enforcement Decree of the Fair Trade Act and the Fair Trade Act. Thus, the defendant's imposition of a penalty surcharge on a violation of the Fair Trade Act is a discretionary act. However, if there are grounds such as misconceptions of the fact that served as the basis for imposing a penalty surcharge in exercising such discretion, or violation of the principle of proportionality and equality, it is illegal as a deviation or abuse of discretionary power (see, e.g., Supreme Court Decision 2007Du220

B) Whether the calculation of the relevant sales amount is illegal

(1) Determination as to the assertion that the contract value should be excluded from the relevant sales

As seen earlier, the Plaintiff agreed to obtain the share of the consortium in the tender for the Namyang Construction Project, which was scheduled to be a successful bidder, without participating in the above six companies' meetings, and concluded a close relation between the agreement of each of the above construction works of this case. However, according to the above acknowledged facts, each of the construction works of this case can be sufficiently recognized that the Plaintiff participated in the bidding for the Namyang Construction Project as a separate construction project, and that the Plaintiff participated in the bidding for the Namyang Construction Project. Therefore, it is reasonable to include the contract amount for the Namyang Construction in the Plaintiff's relevant sales, and that the contract amount for the Namyang Construction project should be excluded from the Plaintiff's relevant sales on the ground that the Plaintiff obtained the status of the hub in the consortium Construction for the Namyang Construction Project in connection with the bid for the Kim Yangyang Construction Project.

(2) Determination as to the assertion that the relevant sales should be limited to the contract amount for the Namyang Construction

According to the above, each of the instant construction works is identical to the project owner and does not differ at the time of the order, and there is no special relation with each other, and there is no higher overall construction works than each of the instant construction works. Thus, the instant collaborative act cannot be deemed the same as the agreement on construction section division, and as seen earlier, it can be acknowledged that the Plaintiff’s collaborative act is identical to the Plaintiff’s agreement on construction section division. As such, it is reasonable to view that there is no reason to exclude the contract amount for Kimpo Corporation from the Plaintiff’s relevant sales. The Plaintiff’s assertion is without merit.

C) Illegal in calculating the imposition standard rate

According to Section IV.1.1.c. (1)(a) of the penalty surcharge notice, the defendant set the imposition standard rate in consideration of the gravity of the violation with respect to unfair collaborative acts under Article 19(1) of the Fair Trade Act. The defendant set the imposition standard rate in consideration of the gravity of the violation. Although chis construction and chisp construction led the above 6 groups, as long as the plaintiff also attended the meeting and made a bid collusion which generates only the competition-restricting effect, it is difficult to deem that the defendant applied the imposition standard rate of 10% on the very significant violation. In addition, in light of the above, it is difficult to view that the contents of the agreement of the plaintiff in the collaborative act in this case are significant differences with the participants in each bidding in this case. The plaintiff's allegation in this part is without merit

D) Illegality regarding grounds for mitigation due to simple participation

(1) It is difficult to view that the Plaintiff’s participation in the instant collaborative act does not constitute a case where it is evident that the Plaintiff’s participation in the instant collaborative act was irrelevant to the Plaintiff’s interest in light of the following: (a) the developments leading up to the Plaintiff’s participation in the instant collaborative act; (b) the Plaintiff’s participation in the instant collaborative act was considerably large to the extent that it was impossible for the Plaintiff to constitute a consortium and consortium; (c) the overall intent of collusion and the composition of a consortium, and there was considerable room to change the composition of a consortium; and (d) the Plaintiff’s participation in the instant collaborative act was granted by the Namyang Construction Corporation; and (c) the Plaintiff’s participation in the instant collaborative act does not constitute a case where it is evident that

(2) In addition, according to Section IV.3.3(c)(2) of the Penalty Surcharge public notice, where it is evident that a number of enterprisers engaged in simple participation in, or engaged only in an abstract role in, violations may be reduced by up to 30/100, but it shall not apply to the participating enterprisers whose calculation standard has been reduced by at least 30/100 on the ground that the bid collusion fell. However, it is reasonable to deem that the failure to participate in the bidding in light of the provisions of Section IV.1.C.(1)(e) of the Penalty Surcharge public notice in the above provision includes cases where the bidder fails to participate in the bidding in the light of the provisions of Section IV.1.C.(1)(2) of the Penalty Surcharge public notice on the ground that the plaintiff did not participate in the Kimpo Construction project under the provision of Section IV.1.2(e)(2) of the Penalty Surcharge public notice on the ground that it is difficult to recognize the plaintiff's participation in, 30% of the 1.5% discount of the penalty surcharge in the construction project.

(3) The Plaintiff’s assertion on this part is without merit.

E) Determination as to other unlawful grounds for appeal

In light of the above, it is difficult to view that the Defendant’s penalty surcharge imposed on Kimpo Corporation is excessively excessive or that there is a clear difference between the Plaintiff and the Plaintiff’s participation. The collaborative act of this case is a bid collusion for which the successful bidder and the bid price were determined in advance, and it cannot be deemed that the restriction on competition was not limited. In addition, the Defendant applied differential reduction rate due to joint contractors for the development of Hanpo Industries, which led the collaborative act of this case, and the Defendant applied differential reduction rate due to joint contractors for the development of Hanpo Industries. The Plaintiff obtained the benefit of 28% of the share of the joint bidders in the bidding for Yangpo Corporation instead of participating in the bidding for Kimpo Corporation, and the Defendant reduced 20% of the first adjustment standard by the reason that the Plaintiff actively cooperates in the investigation, such as aiding the Plaintiff’s decision on illegality, and added 50% in consideration of the Plaintiff’s actual ability to bear the expenses. In light of the above, the Plaintiff’s above assertion may not be accepted.

3. Conclusion

Therefore, the plaintiff's claim of this case is dismissed as it is without merit, and it is so decided as per Disposition.
