(hereinafter “F”) for KRW 400 million, and thereafter lent KRW 285 million to F as additional operational funds. As such, the Plaintiff had a total of KRW 685 million loan claim against F.
F, upon taking over the defendant operating a golf driving range, proposed that the plaintiff be deemed to operate the restaurant of the golf driving range at the time of the plaintiff, and the plaintiff entered into a lease agreement with D, the representative director of the defendant and F, with the lease deposit amounting to KRW 200,000,000,000 for some 313.68 square meters of the building in Ulsan-gu, Ulsan Metropolitan City, with the lease deposit amounting to KRW 200,000,000,000 and KRW 60,000 for some 60,000 of the above building on May 10, 2006 (hereinafter "the lease agreement in this case"), and each of the above lease deposit was substituted by the above loan claim against the plaintiff F.
The plaintiff was a restaurant in the above building and closed the building and delivered the building to the defendant, but the defendant returned only 200 million won out of the lease deposit in 2009 and did not return the remaining KRW 150 million.
Therefore, the defendant is obligated to refund the remaining lease deposit to the plaintiff KRW 150 million.
B. H, I, and J (hereinafter “H”) acquired the Defendant from F on July 20, 2010, and around that time, agreed to return the Plaintiff’s lease deposit KRW 150 million upon the normalization of the operation of a golf driving range.
C. Preliminaryly, if the validity of the instant lease agreement is not recognized, the Defendant is obligated to pay the Plaintiff KRW 150 million with the loan, or the Defendant’s representative director D caused damages to the Plaintiff by committing a tort. Therefore, the Defendant is obligated to pay the said money in compensation for damages to the Plaintiff.
