[Reasons for Recognition] Unsatisfy, Witness G's Testimony, and the purport of the whole pleadings
2. Determination
A. The Plaintiff asserted that the instant article was owned by the Plaintiff, and primarily sought against the Defendants the delivery of the instant article, and the conjunctively sought damages of KRW 40 million, which is equivalent to the price of the instant article, if the delivery of the instant article is impossible.
However, in light of the following circumstances, the evidence submitted by the Plaintiff alone cannot be deemed as the Plaintiff’s ownership in light of the overall purport of the evidence presented earlier.
① The Plaintiff stated that “the Plaintiff directly manufactured the instant article in the remarks column of the attached list of the complaint,” and in light of these circumstances, the Plaintiff appears to have asserted that the instant article was owned because it was made by the Plaintiff.
