2. Determination as to the cause of action
A. The wrong bid and the successful bid constitute a pre-contract, and the defendant bears the obligation to enter into this contract at the same time as the plaintiff has the right to request the conclusion of this contract as the successful bidder's status.
In light of Article 9 of the Act on Contracts to Which the State Is a Party and Article 37(1) of the Enforcement Decree of the same Act, the bid bond determined by the Plaintiff is close to the scheduled compensation for damages in preparation for the Defendant’s failure to perform the obligation to conclude a contract based on the successful bid (the Plaintiff is interpreted as a kind of penalty). Considering the fact that the bid bond is demanded to be more than 5% of the bid price, there is no reason to reduce the bid bond on the ground that it is unreasonable
Therefore, unless there are special circumstances, the defendant's bid bond amounting to KRW 77,663,400 under the above letter and the above due date.
