TV Personality Jun Hyun-moo Shocked by 'Save Me, Holmes' PD's Rental Scam Experience

TV personality Jun Hyun-moo was taken aback upon hearing about a rental scam experienced by a PD from 'Save Me, Holmes'.

On the October 13th episode of MBC's variety show 'I Live Alone', announcer Go Kang-yong was seen searching for a new rental home.

Before visiting potential homes, Go Kang-yong met with an acquaintance for advice. He introduced the acquaintance as a PD who had worked as an assistant director on MBC's 'Save Me, Holmes'.

During their conversation, it was revealed that this PD had fallen victim to a rental scam. Watching from the studio, Jun Hyun-moo expressed his surprise, saying, "A 'Save Me, Holmes' PD got scammed on a rental?"

Go Kang-yong commented, "This friend is very meticulous and knowledgeable, yet still fell victim," to which Code Kunst added, "There really are so many cases like this," expressing his sympathy.

The PD shared his experience with the rental scam, offering practical advice. He explained, "Rental scams can occur not just from outright deception but also when property values drop, preventing landlords from returning deposits."

He emphasized the importance of securing 'rental deposit insurance' as a crucial step in rental agreements.

However, he also noted that for new apartments, "It can be difficult to obtain 'rental deposit insurance' because the official land price hasn't been established."
