Reasons
Comprehensively taking account of the overall purport of the arguments as indicated in the Evidence A Nos. 1 and 2, the Plaintiff entered into a lease agreement with the Defendant on April 17, 2017, which stipulates that the deposit amount of KRW 180,000,000,000 and the term of lease from May 19, 2017 to May 19, 2019 (hereinafter “instant lease agreement”) shall be from May 19, 2017, and the Plaintiff paid KRW 180,000,000 to the Defendant around that time. The instant lease agreement was implicitly renewed, and the Plaintiff urged the Defendant to return the lease deposit from August 27, 2019 to the Defendant on the premise of the termination of the instant contract.
According to the above facts, the lease contract of this case was terminated on January 23, 2019 and terminated on January 23, 2020 after three months from October 23, 2019, when the defendant received a copy of the complaint of this case, and thus, it shall be deemed that the lease contract of this case was terminated in accordance with Article 6-2 of the Housing Lease Protection Act. Thus, the defendant is obligated to pay the plaintiff KRW 180 million.
Therefore, the plaintiff's claim of this case shall be accepted on the grounds of its reasoning, and it is so decided as per Disposition.
