D. Determination
(1) Determination of the plaintiff's assertions described in paragraph (1)
(A) According to Articles 14(4) and 19(1) and (3) of the Inheritance Tax and Gift Tax Act (amended by Presidential Decree No. 7010, Dec. 30, 2003; hereinafter “Inheritance Tax and Gift Tax Act”), and Article 10 of the Enforcement Decree of the same Act (amended by Presidential Decree No. 18108, Sep. 29, 2003; hereinafter the same), the amount of debts owed by an ancestor as of the commencement date of inheritance shall be deducted from the value of inherited property; however, the amount of debts deducted from the value of inherited property shall be limited to those proved by a contract for debt burden, a creditor's certificate, a document evidencing the establishment of collateral and the payment of interest, etc.; in principle, if a person with a domestic domicile dies, the amount actually inherited by a spouse shall be deducted from the value of inherited property, and if the spouse has no actual amount of inheritance or the amount of inheritance is less than 500,000,000 won, it shall not constitute de facto a spouse having a de facto marital relationship under the law.
(B) According to the above facts, the Plaintiffs did not prove the existence of the obligation to borrow KRW 1,405,940,000 against Plaintiff KimB by means of a debt-sharing contract, confirmation document, and evidence of the establishment of collateral and payment of interest, and did not prove the existence of the obligation to borrow KRW 1,405,940,000 against Plaintiff KimB of the deceased KimB at the time of the death of the deceased KimA, as well as the fact that the deceased KimA was holding the cash of KRW 1,40,000 at the time of the death, and that there was sufficient re-refilled to the heir before the death, and that the check, etc. was withdrawn from the account of Plaintiff KimB, but it was not confirmed whether the money was paid to the deceased KimB. In light of the above facts, the materials submitted by the Plaintiffs alone are insufficient to recognize the existence of the obligation to borrow KRW 1,405,940
(c)In addition, according to the above facts of recognition, it is reasonable to deem that SeogG was donated to the deceased KimA with land and bothCC, and there is no other evidence to deem that Seog and YangCC received the registration of ownership transfer of each of the above real estate due to the cancellation of title trust, division of property, compensation for damages, etc., and that Seog was de facto marital relationship with the deceased KimA.
(d)Therefore, this part of the plaintiffs' assertion is without merit.
(2) Determination as to the assertion in paragraph (1) (2) of the plaintiff KimB
According to Article 44(1) and (3) of the Inheritance Tax and Gift Tax Act, the value of the property transferred to a lineal ascendant or descendant shall be presumed to have been donated to a lineal ascendant or descendant at the time when the transferor transfers the property concerned: Provided, That if it is evident that the transferor has received compensation and transferred it, it shall not be presumed to have been donated. According to the above facts of recognition, the plaintiff KimB shall be presumed to have received the registration of transfer of the property from the deceased KimA on November 24, 1995, and there is no other evidence to reverse the above presumption. Thus, the plaintiff KimB's assertion on this part
