D. On December 2010, the Plaintiff filed a claim for the payment of KRW 22,800 in the unit price per sets, which has been reduced by the Plaintiff since December 2010, and the Defendant did not raise an objection for more than three years, and thereafter, raised an objection to the unit price that should have been raised on May 2014.
