2. Judgment on the plaintiff's assertion

A. The Plaintiff’s assertion is an employee of the Defendant, on the grounds that the Plaintiff conducted debt collection and credit investigation by using the collection equipment and expenses provided by the Defendant under the Defendant’s specific direction and supervision at working hours and places designated by the Defendant, and received monthly wages from the Defendant.

Therefore, the defendant is liable to pay the legal retirement allowance to the plaintiff.

B. Determination 1) In the case of the period of claims collection service, according to the evidence No. 2, the Plaintiff received KRW 60,000 to KRW 5960,00 per month from the Defendant during the period of claims collection service. In light of the monthly income distribution, the Plaintiff appears to have received only delegation fees based on his/her performance, such as recovery of claims, regardless of the content and time of his/her service, and there is no evidence to support the Plaintiff that the Defendant had given specific instructions and supervision over the content and method, time, place, etc. of claims collection service (the only statement of evidence No. 4 is insufficient to acknowledge such circumstance
