1. The Defendant shall pay to the Plaintiff KRW 50,227,33 as well as 20% per annum from March 2, 2013 to the day of full payment.

Reasons

1. Comprehensively taking account of the overall purport of the arguments in the evidence Nos. 1, 3, and 4 as to the cause of the claim, the Plaintiff’s retirement from July 4, 200 to the Defendant Company, who provided labor under employment by the Defendant Company on February 15, 2013, and the Defendant Company did not pay the Plaintiff a total of KRW 50,227,333.

Therefore, the Defendant’s above assertion needs to be examined as to the existence or scope of the above damage claim.
