Main Issues

[1] The meaning of "other income" under each subparagraph of Article 21 (1) of the former Income Tax Act and "the cost of lecture fees, etc." under Article 21 (1) 19 (a) of the same Act

[2] The standard for determining whether an income received by provision of service constitutes business income or other income in an independent qualification

[3] The case holding that where a university professor received lectures from a university university's employees in the course of lectures, which much more than the wage and salary income received from the university, the service performed is not contingent and temporary acts, but continuous and repeated "business lectures" with the aim of earning profits under the social norms, and the service charges equivalent thereto constitute business income

Summary of Judgment

[1] Other income listed in each subparagraph of Article 21 (1) of the former Income Tax Act (amended by Act No. 7837 of Dec. 31, 2005) shall be deemed other income only in the case of income other than that listed in the main sentence of the above Article. It is clear in the text of the law that it refers to temporary and incidental income due to its nature, and even if the formal name of income is identical to that listed in each subparagraph of the above Article, if the income is generated in the process of continuing and repeatedly performing the business for a certain purpose, not temporary and incidental income, it shall be deemed business income regardless of its name. In addition, it is clear in the purport of the above law that it means only temporary and incidental income that falls under the "price for lectures, fuels, etc. to many people without employment relationship" as stated in subparagraph 19 (a) of the same paragraph, and that it shall be deemed business income to be recognized as business income even if the name of the acquired income is "galary income."

[2] In an independent qualification, whether an income received by a service constitutes a business income or a business income with a temporary nature is not attributable to the form, name, and appearance of a transaction entered into between the parties, but is evaluated according to its substance. The determination shall be based on ordinary social norms, considering the substance of the relevant taxpayer’s vocational activity, the period, frequency, mode, and the other party of the transaction, as well as the continuity and repetition of the activity to the extent that it can be seen as business activity. In making the determination, the determination shall be made in consideration of not only the pertinent activity, which included income, but also all the circumstances before and after the transaction.

[3] The case holding that the service performed by a university professor is not contingent and temporary activity, but a continuous and repeated "business lectures" with the aim of earning profits under the social norms, and the service cost equivalent thereto constitutes business income where the university professor received a much amount of strong fuel income from a university compared to the wage and salary income received from a university

Conclusion of Pleadings

November 12, 2008

Text

1. The plaintiff's claim is dismissed.

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

Purport of claim

The Defendant’s disposition of imposing global income tax of KRW 10,530,120 for the Plaintiff on March 7, 2007 shall be revoked.

Reasons

1. Details of the disposition;

A. In 2005, the Plaintiff received lectures from various companies and received lectures from the above companies while serving as professors holding the concurrent office of ○ University in 2005. The Plaintiff reported 6,800,000 won received from ○ University as earned income and reported 75,860,760 won as part of the lecture fees received from the above companies as other income.

B. However, as above, the Defendant deemed that the Plaintiff’s strong fuel income of KRW 75,860,760, which was reported as other income is not other income but business income. On the other hand, by discovering the fact that the Plaintiff omitted in the global income tax return in 2005, the Plaintiff calculated the total amount of business income as KRW 114,225,318 by calculating the total amount of business income as KRW 114,225,318. On March 7, 2007, the Defendant decided and notified the Plaintiff of KRW 10,530,120 for global income tax for the year 205 (hereinafter “instant disposition”).

2. Determination on the legitimacy of the disposition

A. The plaintiff's assertion

The Plaintiff, while serving as professor at ○○ University as a professor at the same time, engaged in social activities by satisfying the social organization called “International Peace Research Institute”. In this regard, upon receiving a demand for lectures from various companies in 2005, the Plaintiff paid the price therefrom. However, the Defendant’s disposition of this case, based on the premise that the Plaintiff’s strong fuel income in 2005 falls under the business income, not the business income, but the typical other income, is unlawful, on the ground that the Plaintiff’s strong fuel income in 2005 constitutes a business income.

[Ground of recognition] Unsatisfy, Gap evidence 1-1-3, Eul evidence 2-2-2-2-5 of Eul evidence 2, Eul evidence 7-3-7, Eul evidence 12-2, each of the facts in this court's (main) consortiums and port-to-state Economic Research Institute's inquiry results, the whole arguments, and the purport of arguments

(d) Markets:

(1) Article 19(1)15 of the former Income Tax Act (amended by Act No. 7837, Dec. 31, 2005; hereinafter “the Act”) lists income generated from social and private service business as one type of business income. Article 21(1) of the Act provides that “other income shall include income, other than interest income, dividend income, real estate rental income, labor income, temporary property income, retirement income, income, and forestry income, which falls under any of the following subparagraphs.” Article 19 of the Act provides that “The following personal services are provided and received temporarily from a large number of people without employment relations,” and Article 19(1)1 of the same Act provides that “other income continuously generated from the business performance of the above Article 21(1)15 of the Act shall be deemed as falling under the name of the above Article 21(1) of the Act and shall be deemed as falling under the name of the other income clearly generated in the process of business performance and shall be deemed as falling under the name of the above Article 21 of the Act.”

(2) Meanwhile, in an independent qualification as the Plaintiff, whether the Plaintiff constitutes “gravable income” or “other income with a temporary nature” shall not be based on the form, name, and appearance of the transaction entered into between the parties, but shall be evaluated based on the substance of the transaction. The determination shall be based on ordinary social norms, taking into account whether the Plaintiff’s occupational activity is aimed at profit and whether the activity is continuous and repeated to the extent that it can be seen as business activity in light of the substance, duration, frequency, mode, other party, etc. of the transaction, and the determination shall be made by taking into account not only the pertinent activity including income but also all the circumstances before and after it (see Supreme Court Decision 200Du5203, Apr. 24, 201). According to the above reasoning, the Plaintiff’s act of acquiring 200Du5203, supra, was merely a professor holding office at ○ University from 2005 to 200 won, and the Plaintiff’s act of acquiring 100Du685, supra.

3. Conclusion

Therefore, the plaintiff's claim is dismissed as it is without merit. It is so decided as per Disposition.
