○ 5. From 8 to 14.
Examining the following circumstances known from the above facts of recognition in light of the legal principles as seen earlier, the Plaintiff constitutes “resident who has a domicile in the Republic of Korea” under the Income Tax Act.
① From 2007 to 2010, the taxable period related to the instant disposition, the Plaintiff resided with his spouse after completing the resident registration in the apartment owned by the Plaintiff, and the Plaintiff’s spouse was staying in each country for 188 days annual, and 327 days annual, respectively. The Plaintiff married his/her husband’s riverB around 2009 and his/her husband’s riverB around 201. The Plaintiff married his/her father’s riverB around 201, and the Plaintiff resided in his/her domicile near the Plaintiff’s domestic address.
② On the other hand, the Plaintiff did not own tangible assets in Saudidi, but owns a large number of real estate in Korea. During the instant disposition period, the Plaintiff received benefits while serving as the representative director of HH, a domestic corporation, and made income deduction corresponding to a domestic resident at the time of filing a year-end tax settlement report on the said income. The spouse of the Plaintiff sharing the same livelihood with the Plaintiff is holding a commercial building located in OOdong in Seoul, OOdong.
③ A majority of the main contracts that the Plaintiff entered into during the taxable period of the instant disposition was the Plaintiff’s stay in the Republic of Korea. The Plaintiff alone did not make a separate resolution of the board of directors or the general meeting of shareholders. As such, the Plaintiff appears to have made an important business decision-making in the Republic of Korea regarding the management of the private interest corporation. Therefore, it cannot be deemed that the Plaintiff’s circumstance that the Plaintiff is the representative director of the private interest corporation constitutes “when the Plaintiff has an occupation ordinarily required to reside abroad for more than one year” under Article 2(4)1 of the Enforcement Decree of the Income Tax Act.
○ From the 5th end to the 7th end, the following shall be added:

Considering the circumstances such as the fact that the major business partners of the Saudidi Corporation are local corporations established by the Korean company, and a considerable number of major decision-making related to Saudidi Corporation appears to have been made in the Republic of Korea as seen earlier.
○ 10. 6 The following shall be added to 6 pages:
4) Whether a duty payment notice is illegal
A) Legal principles
As to the imposition of additional tax, there is no provision on the method of the tax payment notice in the Framework Act on National Taxes or individual tax laws. However, even though additional tax is imposed as a principal tax item (main sentence of Article 47(2) of the Framework Act on National Taxes), the essence thereof is a kind of administrative sanction imposing obligations prescribed in the tax law to taxpayers who violate the tax law in order to facilitate the exercise of the right to impose taxes and the realization of tax claims. If multiple kinds of additional tax are imposed with respect to the same item, each imposition of additional tax should be deemed separate taxation by type. Therefore, if the principal tax and additional tax are imposed together by a single tax payment notice, it should be stated separately in the tax payment notice from the principal tax and the additional tax amount and the calculation basis thereof. In addition, if several kinds of additional taxes are imposed together, it is natural to enable the taxpayer to know the contents of each taxation disposition by itself by classifying the amount of tax and the calculation basis thereof between them (see, e.g., Supreme Court Decision 200Du1374, Dec. 18, 2001).
Meanwhile, if it is evident that a taxpayer was not at all hindered in the determination of whether he/she is dissatisfied with the disposition or filing an objection by a notice of tax notice sent by the tax authority prior to the disposition, it shall be deemed that the defect of the tax notice is cured. However, it is limited to a document that can supplement the defect of the tax notice in advance is required to be delivered to the taxpayer prior to the notice of tax payment in accordance with Acts and subordinate statutes, so that the tax notice can be completed in entirety (see, e.g., Supreme Court Decision 2005Du5505, Oct. 13, 2005).
B) Determination
In full view of the purport of the entire pleadings, each notice of tax payment for global income tax notified by the Defendant to the Plaintiff as a whole is not divided into the additional tax on negligent tax returns and the additional tax on negligent tax returns, and only the aggregate amount is specified separately from the principal amount, and it is not specified in the grounds for calculation of each additional tax. In light of the legal principles as seen earlier, the notice of tax payment for the instant case is defective, and there is no evidence suggesting that the document to supplement the defect of the above notice of tax payment was delivered to the Plaintiff. Accordingly, since each of the instant dispositions was procedural defect in the notice of tax payment, the notice of tax payment for additional tax exemption should be revoked with no need to further examine the existence of justifiable grounds for exemption of additional tax exemption.
2. Conclusion
The plaintiff's claim shall be accepted within the extent of the above recognition, and the remaining claims shall be dismissed as it is without merit. Since the judgment of the court of first instance which has different conclusions is unfair, the part against the plaintiff as to each of the above additional taxes in the judgment of the court of first instance shall be revoked, and the remaining appeal of the plaintiff shall
