Anchor Kim Dae-ho expressed envy towards Ha Seok-jin, a 'Bangidong Kid' from Songpa-gu, Seoul.
On the 23rd, the MBC entertainment show ‘Save Me! Homes’ featured various apartments in Songpa-gu, which ranked first in apartment transactions for 2024. On this day, Ha Seok-jin appeared as a guest and went on a site visit with Kim Sook and Kim Dae-ho.
According to Nielsen Korea, the household rating for the previous day's broadcast of ‘Save Me! Homes’ was 3.6% in the metropolitan area, marking the highest figure for 2025.
On that day, Ha Seok-jin confidently stated that he knows the history and geography of the Bangidong area, as he graduated from middle and high school there. In contrast, Kim Dae-ho, who is from a rural area in Yangpyeong, admired Ha Seok-jin's past.
In particular, Ha Seok-jin mentioned that the local academic enthusiasm was high, and he was serious about studying subjects like piano, swimming, Korean, English, and math. Kim Dae-ho, astonished, replied, "Unlike Ha Seok-jin, I couldn't go to the Gangnam Daechi-dong academies and took classes online. At least I studied in my local area," finding some comfort in that.
Previously, Kim Dae-ho revealed that he entered university through the rural admission process.
‘Save Me! Homes’ airs on Thursday nights at 10 PM.
