A. The Plaintiff’s share in the above △ apartment that was donated to the Plaintiff’s wife is inherited in advance from his father to other inheritors in accordance with their inheritance shares.
Article 155 (3) of the Enforcement Decree of the Income Tax Act provides that with respect to "one house for one household as prescribed by the Presidential Decree" in Article 89 (1) 3 of the same Act, where Article 155 (3) of the Enforcement Decree of the same Act transfers a house other than the house jointly inherited, the house jointly inherited shall not be deemed the house of the relevant resident.

B. The Plaintiff did not know that the Plaintiff acquired shares in △△ apartment as above and did not know of the acquisition. The instant disposition against the Plaintiff, known as falling under one house for one household, was unlawful.
3. Determination
In the meantime, Article 89(1) of the Income Tax Act provides that the income derived from the transfer of one house for one household as prescribed by the Presidential Decree shall be non-taxable income. In light of the principle of no taxation without the law, the interpretation of tax laws and regulations shall be interpreted in accordance with the legal text unless there are special circumstances, and it shall not be permitted to expand or analogically interpret without the reasonable reason, and in particular, it is consistent with the principle of fair taxation to strictly interpret the provisions that can be seen as clearly preferential provisions among the requirements for reduction and exemption.
Article 155 (3) of the Enforcement Decree of the Income Tax Act provides only joint inherited houses and provides several houses, it may not be extended and interpreted to include them.
In addition, the issue of whether the requirements for non-taxation for one household are satisfied is determined on the basis of objective facts, not based on the subjective perception of the taxpayer. Therefore, even if the Plaintiff was unaware of the spouse’s acquisition of shares in housing, it did not err by deeming that the requirements for non-taxation for one household were not satisfied.
Therefore, there is no error in the taxation disposition of this case as alleged by the plaintiff.
4. Conclusion
The plaintiff's claim is dismissed as it is without merit. It is so decided as per Disposition.
