According to foreign media such as the Gwangmyeong Ilbo and the South China Morning Post, a man named Zhao, who lives in an apartment in Zhejiang Province, China, purchased three sides of an underground shared parking lot.
This was not a problem because there were few residents when he bought the parking space.
However, as the number of people increased and the neighborhood developed, parking spaces began to become scarce.
As a result, he parked his son's toy car so as not to be invaded by the parking space he purchased.
Residents then complained to the property management company, saying his actions were selfish and wasteful.
The real estate company tried to negotiate with Zhao and suggested that the toy cars be removed so that they could be used by other residents.
However, Zhao countered that he had the right to use the space he legally purchased in the way he wanted.
However, the situation worsened when a real estate company instructed the guards to put away their toy cars.
Angry Zhao sued the guards and demanded compensation.
He claimed that it was an expensive and limited edition model, not a regular toy.
As a result of the trial, the court ruled in Zhao's favor that the real estate management company actually violated the law and violated his property rights.
The court ruled that the real estate company should compensate Zhao about 60,000 yuan (about 11 million won) and allow him to use the parking space without interference in the future.
The court also advised the company to secure more parking spaces to address the parking shortage of residents.
When the ruling came out, there were mixed reactions online.
Netizens are asking "What's wrong with the guards?", Posting posts criticizing Zhao, such as "'Let's give up on the society we live together', but the right to the purchased parking space must be protected" There was a lot of supportive writing.
