A. The Plaintiff is a person who runs the stone construction and sales business under the trade name of “C,” and the Defendant was a person who runs the new construction and sales business of housing, and was engaged in the construction of multi-household houses on the ground of Guro-gu Seoul Metropolitan Government (hereinafter “instant construction”).

B. On November 2015, the Defendant awarded a contract to the Plaintiff for the construction of building stones for the interior and exterior walls of the instant construction work in KRW 40 million, and made a verbal agreement to pay the construction price in installments in line with the base price.

(hereinafter “instant contract”). The Plaintiff imported the instant stone and brought it into the instant construction site on December 23, 2015 for the purpose of carrying out the said construction work.
