The so-called 'Villa King', who was arrested on charges of fraudulent 'can charter', was arrested on the MBC entertainment program 'Save me!
The fact that he appeared in 'Holmes' became known belatedly.
MBC started to deal with it by stopping the replay service of the episode.
On the 11th, Nocut News reported that Mr. Lee, a rental operator in his 30s, arrested for stealing tens of billions of won in deposits from tenants through the "can charter" technique while owning 413 villas, was accused of stealing terrestrial TV broadcasts during the crime. It was reported that he appeared on a popular real estate entertainment program.
According to the report, Mr. Lee, who appeared on the show as a 'brokerage assistant', guided the sale of a villa on the second floor for a client couple looking for a private house, and the celebrity cast introduced the characteristics of the sale to the client and viewers.
However, it turned out that Mr. Lee directly owned the 1st generation on the 5th floor of the villa introduced on the broadcast using the 'can charter' method.
He introduced other properties in the same building as the household in his name to the broadcast, aiming for an accompanying publicity effect.
Afterwards, Lee posted the fact of his broadcast appearance on his personal SNS and used it to increase his awareness and credibility.
It is known that Lee was recently arrested on charges of defrauding about 31 billion won in deposits from tenants while owning a total of 413 villas through the 'can chartered rental' method.
Although the name of the program Lee appeared in was not disclosed in the report, based on the content and timing of the broadcast, 'Save me!
It turned out to be the contents of 'Holmes'.
