2. The costs of lawsuit shall be borne by the Plaintiff.

On September 17, 2015, the Plaintiff entered the Republic of Korea with a short-term visit (C-3) sojourn status on September 17, 2015, and applied for refugee status to the Defendant on October 1, 2015.

On November 25, 2015, the Defendant rendered a disposition to deny the Plaintiff’s application for refugee status (hereinafter “instant disposition”) on the ground that the Plaintiff’s assertion does not constitute “a well-founded fear of persecution” as stipulated in Article 1 of the Refugee Convention and Article 1 of the Refugee Protocol.

The Plaintiff dissatisfied with the instant disposition and filed an objection with the Minister of Justice on December 28, 2015, but the said objection was dismissed on February 24, 2017.

【In the absence of dispute, the Plaintiff’s father’s assertion as to whether the disposition of this case is legitimate or not, and the Plaintiff’s father’s assertion as to whether the disposition of this case is legitimate, is against the Plaintiff. The father’s mother after the father’s death threatens the Plaintiff in order to commemorate the South-North Dong-dong.

For this reason, the plaintiff's return to his country is highly likely to be harmful to gambling.

Therefore, the instant disposition that did not recognize the Plaintiff as a refugee is unlawful.
