2. Summary of the parties' arguments
A. In addition to the basic construction stipulated in the instant contract, the Plaintiff and the Defendant agreed to perform additional construction works of KRW 7,700,000 for the instant store (including value-added tax), and the Plaintiff implemented additional construction works.
Therefore, the Defendant should pay to the Plaintiff the amount of KRW 12,400,000 (=29,700,000 for basic construction works - the amount of KRW 7,700,00 for additional construction works - the amount of KRW 25,00,000 paid by the Defendant) and damages for delay.
B. The Defendant’s assertion that the Defendant received money from the Plaintiff, and thus, cannot respond to the Plaintiff’s claim.
1) Although it is recognized that the Plaintiff agreed to undertake the additional construction with respect to the instant store, the agreed amount is merely KRW 4,620,000 [the construction cost = KRW 4,200,000 (the removal work KRW 1,500,000 (the removal work KRW 2,500,000), the removal work KRW 70,000), and KRW 420,000]. 2) There is a defect in the floor of the instant store constructed by the Plaintiff.
Therefore, the defendant requested repair works to the plaintiff, but the plaintiff did not comply with it and made the repair works through another construction business operator, and the cost of KRW 2,420,00 (including value-added tax) shall be included.
