F.

On November 26, 2015, Nonparty 4 notified the Defendant of the assignment of the said claim and sent the notification to the Defendant at that time.
G. From among the instant movables, the TV set forth in No. 10 and No. 29 of the Attached List No. 10 were occupied and used by the Defendant until August 8, 2014, but the materials thereafter were unknown.
[Reasons for Recognition] Facts without dispute, Gap evidence Nos. 1, 2, 12, 13, 14, 15, 17 (including each number in the case of evidence Nos. 12, 13, and 14), Eul evidence Nos. 2-1, 3-1, and the purport of the whole pleadings
2. The plaintiff's assertion
A. Of the instant movables, with respect to the movables that the Defendant possessed and used until January 13, 2015 and September 11, 2015, the Defendant gains a considerable amount of profit from the Defendant’s possession and use without legitimate authority, and Nonparty 4, the owner of the instant movables, and the Plaintiff suffered a loss equivalent to the same amount.
B. Meanwhile, the Defendant is liable to compensate the Plaintiff or Nonparty 4, who was the owner of the instant movable property, for damages equivalent to the market price as the tort, in respect of the movable property that was damaged or destroyed by the Defendant’s possession or use and was not delivered to the Plaintiff or Nonparty 4.
C. By August 6, 2013, the Defendant is liable to Nonparty 4, who was the owner of the instant movable property, and from August 7, 2013, the Plaintiff, the owner of the instant movable property, is liable to pay the amount equivalent to each usage fee and damages, respectively, to the Plaintiff, who is the owner of the instant movable property. The Plaintiff was transferred to Nonparty 4’s claim for return of unjust enrichment and
D. Therefore, the Defendant is liable to return KRW 304,977,206, which is the amount equivalent to the rent for the movable property delivered on January 13, 2015 and September 11, 2015 (from December 1, 2011 to September 11, 2015) to the Plaintiff as unjust enrichment, and to pay KRW 156,985,00, which is the amount equivalent to the market price of the movable property not delivered, to the Plaintiff.
3. Determination
A. Determination as to whether the Defendant is liable for damages
The Plaintiff’s movable properties listed in the separate sheet Nos. 5, 23, 24, 25, 26, 28, and 29 among the corporeal movable properties listed in the separate sheet were occupied by the Defendant and their whereabouts cannot be known. As such, the Defendant asserts that the amount equivalent to the market price as of September 11, 2015 should be returned to the Plaintiff as compensation for damages, and as long as the Plaintiff’s assertion and proof against the Defendant’s tort were not presented, the Plaintiff’s claim for this portion is without merit, without any need to further examine
B. Determination as to whether the Defendant’s obligation to return unjust enrichment arises
1) The instant movable property was owned by Nonparty 4 from December 1, 201 to August 7, 201, and was transferred to the Plaintiff on and from August 7, 2013, and was owned by the Plaintiff. Nonparty 4 transferred to the Plaintiff all rights, such as the right to claim restitution of unjust enrichment and the right to claim compensation against the Defendant regarding the instant movable property on May 14, 2015, which was after the instant lawsuit was filed. The Defendant notified the Defendant of the assignment of the said movable property. The Defendant occupied and used part of the instant movable property, and delivered it to the Plaintiff and Nonparty 4, as seen earlier. As seen below, the Defendant gains profit equivalent to the usage fee by occupying and using the movable property, and the Defendant sustained damages equivalent to the same amount to the Plaintiff and Nonparty 4, which are the owner of the said movable property, and the Defendant is obligated to return unjust enrichment to the Plaintiff.
2) Determination as to movables not occupied or used by the Defendant
A) As to movables Nos. 6, 8, 9, and 24 of the [Attachment List]
In the return of unjust enrichment on the ground that the benefit has been realized without any legal ground, since it refers to the substantial benefit, if the defendant occupied the movable property of this case, but did not gain substantial benefit due to the failure to use or make profit, it does not constitute a obligation to return unjust enrichment even if the loss was incurred to the plaintiff (see Supreme Court Decision 98Da8554 delivered on July 10, 1998, etc.).
According to the purport of Gap evidence No. 2 and the whole arguments, the movable property Nos. 6, 8, 9, and 24, among the movable property of this case as indicated in the separate sheet, was dismantled before August 8, 2014 and stored in the inner warehouse inside the place of business. Thus, although the defendant occupied the above movable property, it cannot be deemed that the defendant gained substantial benefits, and there is no other evidence to acknowledge this otherwise, the plaintiff's claim for this part of the movable property of this case is without merit.
B) As to movables Nos. 5, 14, 15, 22, 23, 25, 26, 28, and 30 of the [Attachment List]
As seen earlier, the movables Nos. 5, 14, 15, 22, 23, 25, 26, 28, and 30 of the [Attachment List] are movables, the location of which is unknown at the time of August 8, 2014, or the Plaintiff’s ownership is unclear. As such, the fact that the Defendant delivered some of the movables (attached Table Nos 22, 23, 26, 30) to the Plaintiff on September 11, 2015 is insufficient to recognize the fact that the Defendant acquired profits by occupying and using the aforementioned unknown movables from December 1, 2011, and there is no other evidence to acknowledge it (or cannot be known at the time of August 8, 2014). Therefore, this part of the Plaintiff’s claim is without merit.
3) Determination as to movables possessed and used by the Defendant
A) As to movables Nos. 10 and 29 of the [Attachment List]
According to the overall purport of evidence Nos. 2, 10, and 3-1 of evidence Nos. 3 and the entire arguments, the movable property Nos. 10, 29 of the annexed list Nos. 10 and 29 was occupied and used in the place of business on August 8, 2014, but it can be recognized that the location of the movable was unknown on January 13, 2015. Thus, the Defendant obtained substantial benefits by using the movable property as at least until August 8, 2014.
B) As to movables Nos. 1, 4, 20, 21, and 27 of the Schedule Nos. 1, 4, 20
According to the overall purport of evidence Nos. 2, 15, and 3-1 of evidence Nos. 3-1, the defendant occupied and used movable property Nos. 1, 4, 20, 21, and 27 in the defendant's business place until January 13, 2015, and the defendant suspended possession and use of the above movable property and delivered the above movable property to Nonparty 4 on the same day. However, Nonparty 4 refused to accept movable property Nos. 10, 20, 21, and 27 among movable property No. 1 of the attached Table No. 22, No. 4 of the attached Table No. 1, respectively, for reasons such as "the movable property is different from the object of delivery", or "the defendant is not located in the defendant's business place," and the plaintiff may recognize that he/she received all the above movable property which Nonparty 4 refused to accept on September 11, 2015. Therefore, the defendant is obligated to return the amount equivalent to the above movable property acquired by occupation and use.
C) As to movables Nos. 2, 3, 7, 11, 12, 13, 16, 17, 18, and 19 of the Schedule Nos. 2, 7, 11, 19
As seen earlier, the aforementioned movables were occupied and used by the Defendant in the place of business, video room, and computer room, and delivered them to Nonparty 4 on January 13, 2015. As such, the Defendant is obligated to return the amount equivalent to the profit accrued from the possession and use of the said movables until January 13, 2015.
4) On this ground, the Defendant kept the movable property of this case for Nonparty 4, and there is a claim equivalent to the storage fees against Nonparty 4, and there is a defense that offsets the Plaintiff’s claim to return unjust enrichment against the Defendant’s claim to return unjust enrichment. Thus, unless there is no specific assertion and proof as to the Defendant’s claim equivalent to the storage fees, this part of the Defendant’s defense is without merit to further examine.
C. Determination on the scope of return of unjust enrichment
Furthermore, with respect to the amount of unjust enrichment to be returned to the Defendant, the amount of profit from the possession and use of ordinary movable property is equivalent to the usage fees of movable property. According to the appraiser non-party 7's appraisal result and the purport of the whole pleadings, the user fees for each period of movable property occupied and used by the Defendant are as specified in the table 4 and table 5 below. Thus, the Defendant is obligated to pay to the Plaintiff the amount of unjust enrichment, 508,415 won, and delay damages.
