1. The part of the judgment of the court of first instance against the Defendants shall be revoked, and the plaintiff's lawsuit corresponding to the revoked part shall be dismissed.
Reasons
1. The court of first instance rejected the claim for dismissal of the representative director among the instant lawsuit, and cited the claim for dismissal of the director.
With regard to this, only the Defendants filed an appeal against the part of the claim for dismissal of director, which is the part against the Defendants.
