2. Whether the instant disposition is lawful

A. The Plaintiff asserted that he/she had an assault and demanded the return of property to a third party who manages the property of his/her father in Thailand around March and April 2015. Since returning to Thailand may cause harm to the life and body, the Plaintiff should be recognized as a refugee.

B. Determination 1) Article 2 subparag. 1 of the Refugee Act provides that “Refugee” means a foreigner who is unable or does not want to be protected by the country of nationality due to a well-founded fear to recognize that he/she may be injured on the grounds of race, religion, nationality, status as a member of a specific social group, or political opinion, or a stateless foreigner who is unable or does not want to return to the country in which he/she had resided before entering the Republic of Korea due to such fear.” 2) In full view of the following circumstances revealed by the evidence as seen earlier, when comprehensively considering the following circumstances, it is difficult to view that the Plaintiff has “a well-founded fear of persecution on the grounds of race, religion, nationality, membership of a specific social group, or political opinion,” and there is no other evidence to acknowledge this otherwise, the disposition of this case, which rejected the Plaintiff’s application for recognition of refugee status, is legitimate.

(1) To be recognized as a refugee, an applicant for refugee status shall be persecution in his/her home country.
