The client registered the marriage in 2014 and began married life, with one daughter from the marriage. Throughout the marriage, the client experienced difficulties such as frequent verbal abuse or abusive language from the in-laws and the spouse??s failed stock and cryptocurrency investments, but the client tried to maintain the marriage for the sake of the elementary-school-aged child.
The spouse, however, continuously demanded divorce from the early days of the marriage and, when the client did not agree to divorce by agreement, unilaterally left home and lived separately.
The parties agreed not to proceed with property division claims. However, the spouse strongly refused to pay future child support, claiming that the KRW 200 million lease deposit for the apartment where the client currently lived had already been paid to the client as child support. The client wanted to receive child support until the child became an adult and, separately from child support, university tuition if the child entered university.
Taelim persuaded the applicant??s side, and mediation was reached on terms that, separate from the previously received KRW 200 million, the spouse would pay (1) the full university tuition if the child entered university and (2) KRW 3 million per month in child support until the child reached adulthood.
Taelim reasonably persuaded the other side that the KRW 200 million lease deposit, given the nature of the money, could not substitute for child support, that regular child support would be necessary considering the current educational environment, and that tuition support would be essential if the child entered university given the client??s circumstances. As a result, mediation was concluded on the terms sought by the client.
