You can add the #+BIND line to the following variable.
,----[ C-h v org-latex-generic-scrlttr2-setup RET ]
| org-latex-generic-scrlttr2-setup is a variable defined in `org-scrlttr2.el'.
| Its value is
| "\n#+LaTeX_CLASS: scrlttr2\n#+LaTeX_CLASS_OPTIONS: [DIN]\n#+OPTIONS:
toc:nil\n"
|
| Documentation:
| Meta lines for scrlttr2 class. Plug in your LCO file.
|
| You can customize this variable.

I am using MikTex as well. With following changes your brief.tex, the
file compiles fine for me and things are OK (I see NO "none" page)
,----
| Replace \documentclass[pdj]{scrlttr2} with \documentclass[jambu]{scrlttr2}
|
| Remove the following packages (which I don't have installed )
| \usepackage{marvosym}
| \usepackage{wasysym}
| \usepackage{latexsym}
`----
I am pretty sure that "none" page has something to do with your pdj.lco
file or how you have installed the scrlttr2 class.
FWIW, my lco file begins with the following lines followed by lots of
komavars.
,----
| \ProvidesFile{jambu}[10 letter-class-option]
|
| \usepackage{times} \usepackage[utf8]{inputenc}
| \usepackage[T1]{fontenc}
| \usepackage[english]{babel}
| \usepackage{url}
|
| \LoadLetterOption{DIN}
`----
ISTM (and I am not latex user in even remote sense of the word)
including babel package with appropriate langauge would set the things
right for you. Also I am using the "D1N" as the base LCO file. You may
also want to check the base LCO file picked by your setup.
