2. Determination as to the cause of action

A. According to the above facts, barring any special circumstance, the Defendant is obligated to pay the Plaintiff who acquired the instant claim for construction cost of KRW 2,00,000,000 per annum from May 31, 2005 to the date of full payment, which is the day following the day when the payment order was served by C, to the day of full payment. Article 3(1) main text of the former Act on Special Cases Concerning the Promotion, etc. of Legal Proceedings, and Article 3(1) main text of the former Act on Special Cases Concerning the Promotion, etc. of Legal Proceedings (amended by Presidential Decree No. 26553, Oct. 1, 2015).

B. As to this, the defendant asserted that the claim for construction price of this case was extinguished by prescription because the plaintiff did not take any measures for ten years after the payment order became final and conclusive, but since the prescription period of the claim for the construction price of this case was suspended due to the plaintiff's seizure and collection order as seen earlier, the above argument by the defendant is without merit.

3. The plaintiff's claim of this case is concluded.
