If the receiver of the amount paid is not the claimant in the claim for damages, or if the payment was received through any other unfair method, the amount paid to the claimant shall be immediately confiscated from the claimant.

05. Repayment for compensations

In principle, the repayment for compensations is a one-time payment. However, in consideration of the economic situation of the defendant, the payment can be made in installments within a maximum period of 24 months. After the installment payment deadline, the defendant will be charged an additional amount (5% per year) applied for the statutory interest rate as well as litigation and other procedural expenses related to the application of the rights to claim.

Considering the economic situation of the defendant, the payments can be made in installments for the first 12 months (up to one year). If the repayment amount is over 50 million won, it can be paid in installments over 24 months
