B. On June 25, 2013, the Plaintiff, at the Defendant’s request, remitted KRW 30,000,000 to the deposit account in the name of E, his/her wife.

On the other hand, the defendant received and kept the loan certificate (No. 1, No. 3) from D or D on June 25, 2013 with respect to the above money, which is set at KRW 30,000,000 from D.

Upon the Plaintiff’s request for reimbursement of KRW 30,000,000, the Defendant paid KRW 27,400,000 to the Plaintiff from August 30, 2013 to June 1, 2015.
