1. The plaintiff's claim is dismissed.

2. The costs of lawsuit shall be borne by the Plaintiff.

1. On February 29, 2016, the Plaintiff, as a foreigner of Mongolian nationality, was staying in the Republic of Korea as a member of his/her spouse (F-3).

If a foreigner intends to continue his/her stay in excess of the period of stay, the foreigner
