Reasons
1. Basic facts
A. On November 30, 2016, the Plaintiff leased part of the building in Dongdaemun-gu Seoul (hereinafter “existing store”) located in Dongdaemun-gu Seoul and operated a restaurant at the place, and on March 2017, the Plaintiff entered into a contract with the Defendant to lease the first floor (hereinafter “instant store”) of the building located in Seongdong-gu Seoul (hereinafter “instant building”) from the Defendant as deposit money of KRW 5,000,000, monthly rent of KRW 450,000, and from March 19, 2017 to 24 months (hereinafter “instant lease agreement”).
B. The Plaintiff paid deposit amounting to KRW 5,00,000 and KRW 900,000 for two months and transferred the instant store to the Defendant, and then sought to renew the business registration for the location of the instant store to Seongdong-gu Seoul Metropolitan Government Office on June 2017. However, the Plaintiff sought an answer from public officials of Seongdong-gu Seoul Metropolitan Government Office to the effect that “In order to renew the business registration due to the lack of classification between the store and the house, the change of the use of the said building is required” and demanded the Defendant to proceed with the procedure for changing the use of the said building.
C. Accordingly, the Defendant confirmed the possibility and cost of the change of the use of the above building and responded to the Plaintiff to the effect that “Although the type of business that can be operated at the instant store is confirmed before the contract was concluded, the Defendant examined the part of the change of use in consideration of the Plaintiff, but it is impossible to change the use due to the cost and overall circumstances.”
When the Plaintiff was unable to renew his business registration at the instant store, the Plaintiff delivered the instant store to the Defendant on July 2, 2017, and the Defendant returned KRW 4,272,000, which deducted the rents and public charges that were not paid until the date and time of the deposit, to the Plaintiff.
