Lee Chan-won expressed concern that his house has not been sold for eight years.

A young saver has impressed financial trainer Kim Kyung-pil with his frugality.

Tonight (10th), KBS 2TV's entertainment show 'High-End Saltwater Strider' will feature a 24-year-old novice who has saved approximately 40 million KRW.

The guest revealed that he saved 80% of his first-year salary, accumulating around 30 million KRW, and added another 10 million KRW through part-time jobs over a year.

Lee Chan-won was astonished, saying, "I also saved about 7 million KRW over four years of part-time work since I was 20, but this is truly impressive." Kim Kyung-pil also praised the guest.

The guest explained that his extreme saving habits are driven by his desire to buy his own home as soon as possible. Lee Chan-won mentioned the high housing prices in Seoul and jokingly offered, "Would you like to buy my house in Daegu?" He added that the house, which has not been sold for eight years, brought him good luck in his career as a trot singer, causing laughter in the studio.

As soon as the guest mentioned that he recently started living alone, Lee Chan-won and Yang Se-chan, experienced in living alone, expressed concern with meaningful looks, saying, "You must have a lot of expenses." This raises curiosity about the reasons behind their concern.

The story of the frugal 'Saltwater Strider' who made 'Money Trainer' Kim Kyung-pil smile broadly can be seen tonight (10th) at 8:30 PM on KBS 2TV's 'High-End Saltwater Strider'.
