A. The plaintiff's assertion

(1) The Plaintiff received the key amount from the Deceased and paid KRW 80 million to ○○○○○○○○, and used KRW 5 million for food and transportation expenses. As such, KRW 88 million out of the key amount is not attributable to the Plaintiff’s income, the instant disposition that recognized the Plaintiff’s income is unlawful in violation of the substance over form principle.

(2) The key amount the Plaintiff received from the Deceased is not a honorarium but a remuneration for temporary provision of services. Therefore, by applying Article 87 subparagraph 2 of the Enforcement Decree of the Income Tax Act, the necessary expenses should be recognized as 80/100 of the key amount. On the other hand, the instant disposition is unlawful against the mistake of taxable objects and the provision on deduction of necessary expenses.

C. Determination

(1) As to the plaintiff's first argument

(A) In full view of the purport of the entire arguments with respect to the testimony of the witness ○○○○○ as stated in the evidence No. 3-2, the Plaintiff can be acknowledged as having paid the Plaintiff KRW 20 million in total on two occasions on March 200, in return for the provision of convenience, by preparing a demonstration certificate and issuing a certificate of personal seal impression, etc. with respect to the deceased’s refund of the transfer income tax of this case. As such, the Plaintiff’s assertion on this part is with merit.

However, with respect to the fact that the Plaintiff paid the remainder of 60 million won to ○○○○, it is difficult to believe that the testimony of ○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○, which corresponds thereto, and it is insufficient to recognize it only by means of the written evidence Nos. 3-2 and the written evidence No. 78. In addition, since the Plaintiff alleged that the remainder of 60 million won was paid as a separate agreed amount, even if the above money was paid to ○○○○○○○○○, it would be deemed that the income accrued to the Plaintiff was paid as a separate agreed obligation of the Plaintiff’

(B) Next, there is no evidence to prove that the Plaintiff used five million won out of the key amount as food and transportation costs. Thus, the Plaintiff’s assertion on this part is without merit.

(C) Meanwhile, in full view of the statement No. 2 and the witness’s testimony, the Plaintiff received the issue amount from the Deceased and paid 3 million won among them as a retainer in relation to the claim for the refund of the transfer income tax of this case to Park ○, a certified tax accountant. As such, the Plaintiff’s assertion on this part is with merit.

(D) Therefore, 23 million won out of the key amount should be excluded from the amount of income of the Plaintiff.

(2) As to the second argument by the Plaintiff

(A) According to Article 21 (1) of the Income Tax Act, other income is determined as stipulated in each of the following subparagraphs as income from dividend income, income from real estate rental income, pension income, retirement income, and transfer income, and income is received as an original author for creative works belonging to literature, art, music, or photography under subparagraph 15 under subparagraph 16, which are the royalty for writing, under subparagraph 16, for the brokerage fees for property rights under subparagraph 17 to many people without an employment relationship under subparagraph 19, for the class 19, for the classical enlightenment, radio television broadcasting, etc. and for which the remuneration or other similar remuneration is paid for the class (a) or other similar consideration for the class (b) above is not included in the remuneration for personal services (excluding the above items (c) through (c) and the remuneration for personal services without an employment relationship under subparagraph 15 (h).

(B) In this case, in full view of the statement No. 1-1 and the purport of the entire argument at the witness Park ○-○'s testimony, the Plaintiff may recognize the fact that the deceased requested a tax counsel to return the transfer income tax, etc. of this case on behalf of the deceased, who is an important customer of the National Agricultural Cooperative Federation ○○ Dong branch, and received the key amount from the deceased after requesting a tax accountant to return the transfer income tax of this case on behalf of the deceased, etc.

(C) Therefore, the first Plaintiff’s second assertion on a different premise is without merit without further examining the remainder.

(3) Justifiable tax amount

The legitimate tax amount of 77 million won, which is recognized as other income among the issues amount, is KRW 52,502,200, such as the entry in the due tax amount column in the table of tax calculation of the attached tax amount, and the portion exceeding the above legitimate tax amount among the dispositions of this case is unlawful.

3. Conclusion
