2. According to the above facts, the instant lease contract was terminated on November 19, 2016, which is the last day of the agreed lease term.
Therefore, the defendant is obligated to pay the above lease deposit to the plaintiff KRW 60 million.
On the other hand, the plaintiff also sought damages for delay against the defendant for the lease deposit.
The duty to return the lease deposit to the plaintiff, who is the lessor, as the lessee of the defendant, and the duty to deliver the leased object to the plaintiff to the defendant at the same time. Thus, the defendant is liable for the obligation to deliver the leased object after the plaintiff received performance or performance from the plaintiff.
However, the Plaintiff fulfilled the duty to deliver the instant house, which is the leased object, to the Defendant.
The plaintiff's claim for this portion is not accepted, since there is no evidence of assertion as to the fact that the plaintiff offered performance or offered performance.
