2. Determination

A. 1) In cases where a lessee’s obligation to return an object of lease is impossible due to the extinguishment of a leased object due to a fire, etc., the lessee is liable to compensate for damages arising from the nonperformance of the duty to return the object unless he/she proves that the nonperformance was due to a cause not attributable to himself/herself, and the same applies to cases where the specific cause of a fire, etc., such as a fire, has not been revealed.

In addition, this legal principle also applies to cases where a lessee seeks damages on the ground that the returned leased building was damaged by a fire, although the obligation to return the leased object was not impossible at the end of the lease.

Meanwhile, a lessor is obligated to deliver the leased object to the lessee and to maintain conditions necessary for the use and profit-making during the lease term (Article 623 of the Civil Act). If a fire that occurred during the lease term is presumed to have occurred due to a defect existing in the area controlled and managed by the lessor, repairing and removing the defect must maintain the leased object as necessary for the use and profit-making of the leased object.
