'Villa King', that wasn't all... Dead pants boss revealed again

<Anchor>

We continued to tell you that a man who rented more than 1,000 villas died and the damages of not getting the deposit back continued to rise one after another.

Reporter Ahn Sang-woo's report on the damage to charter fraud will be discussed further.

A four-story villa in Sinjeong-dong, Yangcheon-gu, Seoul.

Of the 11 houses here, 4 are owned by Mr. Kim, the deceased 'Villa King', and another barge boss, Mr. Jeong, owns 3 houses here.

However, Mr. Jeong also died suddenly in July of last year.

Since then, tenants have not been getting their deposit back.

[Mr. A/Victim of charter fraud: We have only two ways.

I have to go to one of the two, 'Who accepts the winning bid at the auction' or (or) 'Do we purchase it ourselves', but who will win the bid, at the auction.]

As a result of the confirmation, the Of the 240 houses, only 35 were insured with deposit guarantee insurance.

Since he died shortly after concluding a charter contract intensively, the majority of tenants were not insured.

[Mr. B/Victim of charter fraud: (Mr. Jeong) intensively signed contracts between May and July and died in July, so most of the people who did not sign up for (price insurance) were completed.]

After his death, it was confirmed that the guarantee insurance application was electronically signed in the name of Jung, raising suspicions behind the charter fraud.

On the 12th, as Song Mo, a 20-year-old owner of dozens of villas and officetels in Incheon, died, Song's tenants were in the same situation.

Victims held a rally in front of the Sejong Government Complex and called for countermeasures.

[Kim Jong-hyun/Victim of Charter Fraud: It is very unfortunate that so many people are making sacrifices and being cornered as credit delinquents.

The government has come up with a solution soon...

.]

The warning of the risk of charter fraud involving the so-called "pants boss" had already begun a year ago, but the government's response was insufficient.

Reporter Ahn Sang-woo is with me.

[Reporter Ahn Sang-woo: Malicious landlords become owners of houses while taking on deposit debts in return for transfer of title.

This investment method may not be a problem when house prices continue to rise, but when house prices fall like these days, it can become a serious problem because even if you sell a house and sell it, you cannot return the deposit.

However, it was revealed that 7 people, including Park Mo, who had over 60 billion won in warranty accidents in 290 cases, had more insurance accidents than 'Villa King'.

So, it is a story that the wave of the charter fraud case may increase in the future.

However, the victims are criticizing that the government did not even think of making countermeasures despite such precedents.]

[Reporter Ahn Sang-woo: Recently, jeonse fraud has been followed one after another, and as the jeonse price drops, the number of guarantee insurance subscribers is rapidly increasing.

In fact, the number of registered households this year recorded the highest ever.

As a result, the cumulative balance of guarantees by guarantee institutions such as the Housing and Urban Guarantee Corporation has increased to 596 trillion won.

Experts are also concerned that at this rate, by the end of next year at the earliest, the warranty work itself could be stopped while exceeding the limit of guarantees set by law.

However, in this regard, the corporation announced that it would receive additional budgetary support from the government to sufficiently expand its own capital so that the guarantee work would not be interrupted.]
