1. The plaintiff's claim is dismissed.
2. The costs of lawsuit shall be borne by the Plaintiff.
Reasons
1. The ground that the Plaintiff was recognized as a general restaurant operator on the ground that the Plaintiff sold a galm with the expiration of the period of circulation on July 18, 2017.
8. 18. The fact that the defendant was imposed a penalty surcharge of KRW 4.65 million in lieu of the business suspension 15 days, and the plaintiff filed an administrative appeal but the same year.

Next, according to the criteria for calculation of penalty surcharges imposed in lieu of business suspension, etc. under Article 53 of the Enforcement Decree of the Food Sanitation Act, the criteria for imposition of penalty surcharges in lieu of business suspension under the Food Sanitation Act, and the amount of sales that serve as the basis for imposition of penalty surcharges shall be one year from the year preceding the year in which the date of
