Reasons

On December 26, 1969, when the plaintiff entered into a livelihood stabilization insurance contract with the non-party 1 as the insured between the defendant company and the non-party 1 as the plaintiff at the maturity or upon the death of the beneficiary, the insurance money shall be two million won and twenty-six thousand won per month for five years, respectively. The contract date shall be five years after the maturity of the contract on December 26, 1969, and the contract date shall be December 25, 1974, five years after the lapse of the contract. Thus, the plaintiff paid 18 times as the insurance premium between December 26, 1969 and May 26, 1971, and the fact that the non-party 1 as the insured died on June 25, 1971 that the non-party 1 as the beneficiary of the insurance contract shall not be disputed between the parties, and the non-party 2 as the beneficiary of the insurance contract shall not be acknowledged as the beneficiary of the insurance contract after the lapse of the insurance period of the first half or more.

Therefore, the defendant is obligated to pay the full amount of the insurance money to the plaintiff unless there are special circumstances. The defendant's attorney, the insured, was the patient suffering from the second typosis and disguised disorder before the conclusion of the insurance contract, so the plaintiff had already been obligated to notify the defendant company at the time of concluding the contract, and thus the defendant company, which became aware of the above circumstances around August 1971, notified the plaintiff of this case on the ground of September 10 of the same year. Thus, the defendant company did not have the obligation to pay the insurance money under Article 20 of the insurance clauses of the defendant company 651 of the Commercial Act. Thus, the defendant company first argued that the above deceased's defendant's defendant's defendant's defendant's defendant's defendant's 4 and 7 were the patient with the second typism and the above witness's testimony of the court below 3, the non-party 4 and the non-party 5's non-party 4's non-party 2's non-party 2's defendant's testimony and the above defendant 4's counter-party 4's allegation.

In this case, the defendant is obligated to pay to the plaintiff 1,517,600 won after deducting the amount of KRW 482,400,00 from the amount of insurance money paid to the plaintiff 2 million won, and damages for delay at the rate of 5% per annum from December 5, 1971 to the full payment. Thus, the plaintiff's claim for the main lawsuit is justified and the defendant's appeal is dismissed, and the costs of appeal are assessed against the losing party.
