Reasons
1. Since the authenticity of the part of the official document is presumed to be established, the claimant is a citizen of the United States of America, and the respondent is a male citizen of the Republic of Korea. The claimant and the respondent reported a marriage on July 12, 1982. The respondent moved to the United States of America on July 28, 1982, and the respondent continued to reside in Korea.
2. The case pertains to the so-called conflict of law concerning divorce between foreigners, so first of all, whether a Korean court has jurisdiction over jurisdiction over jurisdiction over jurisdiction over jurisdiction over jurisdiction over jurisdiction over jurisdiction over jurisdiction over jurisdiction over jurisdiction over jurisdiction over jurisdiction as seen above is clear in the legal reasoning and then the applicable jurisdiction over jurisdiction over jurisdiction over jurisdiction over jurisdiction over jurisdiction over jurisdiction over jurisdiction over jurisdiction over jurisdiction over jurisdiction over jurisdiction over jurisdiction over jurisdiction over jurisdiction over jurisdiction over jurisdiction over jurisdiction over jurisdiction over jurisdiction over jurisdiction over jurisdiction over jurisdiction over jurisdiction over jurisdiction over jurisdiction
3. Comprehensively taking account of the whole purport of the examination of each of the above listed evidence, the respondent may recognize the fact that his whereabouts is well known at present as he did not know of the fact that he did not know of the fact that he did not know of the fact that he had to know of the fact that he had yet to go to the United States on July 28, 1982 due to his occupational relationship.
4.
