Reasons
1. Basic facts
A. The instant land is incorporated into “Road Expansion Works” on January 24, 1979, and is divided from “F-si, Seoyang-gu, Seoyang-gu.” (the category of the instant land was changed to a road in the forest land register on the same day), and C and D completed the registration of ownership transfer for the said land on September 21, 1971, each 1/2 shares on October 25, 1971.
B. On May 31, 1978, the Defendant concluded a contract with C and D to purchase the instant land in KRW 84,695, and around that time, paid KRW 50,000 to them.
Afterwards, the Defendant intended to pay the balance to the seller after completing the road construction work and determining the incorporated area. However, as the address is unknown, it was difficult to pay the balance to the seller. On February 29, 1980, the Defendant deposited the remaining 34,695 won as the principal deposit.
C. Since 1979, the Defendant occupied and used the instant land as a road.
On October 24, 1995, the Plaintiff completed the registration of ownership transfer on June 10, 1996 for the share of D 1/2.
