A red clay house in the remote mountains of Yeongwol, accessible only by raft, with a vegetable garden for sale in the 200 million won range.

A remote village of only 7 households accessible only by raft, featuring a red clay house equipped with a karaoke machine

An exotic second house located in a deep, remote village in Yeongwol, Gangwon-do, is about to be revealed. MBC's 'Home Alone! Holmes' features Yang Se-hyung, Kim Dae-ho, and Gyeong Su-jin as they search for various residential spaces in Yeongwol where they can enjoy the leisure of nature.

The first place the cast stepped into was a secluded village that can only be reached by crossing a raft. This village, inhabited by only seven households, is well known as the location visited during the 'Your Name Is' special of Infinite Challenge to find a resident who didn't know Yoo Jae-suk's name. As soon as the three stepped off the raft, they were met with a sudden heavy downpour. Yang Se-hyung maintained his cheerful mood despite the bad weather, joking, "It feels like they created special effects to make 'Holmes' look grand."

The house they finally reached after many twists and turns is a red clay house built by the owner through self-taught methods. Not only does the exterior harmonize with nature, but the yard also boasts unexpected charm with a bungalow and an ATV. It also offers the geographical advantage of being a great place for fishing in the Donggang River. In particular, a karaoke machine is installed indoors, allowing Yang Se-hyung, Kim Dae-ho, and Gyeong Su-jin to experience this unique option by singing Turtle's 'Airplane' together.

A country house in the 200 million won range designed by an architect husband, the identity of the '800 roots' option

Leaving the romance of the remote village behind, the next place introduced is a country house with a reasonable price in the 200 million won range. This home was built by an architect husband who participated in every stage from design to completion for his wife, who works at a major semiconductor company. A barbecue grill installed in the yard adds to the joy of country living.

The vegetable garden around the house shows a scene that could serve as practical reference for those dreaming of rural life, with various crops like cucumbers, tomatoes, chives, and green onions growing lushly. Above all, what shocked the cast was the super-special option consisting of a staggering '800 roots.' The massive scale of the plantings in the garden surprised both the studio and the site, proving the overwhelming value of the house as a country residence.

Yeongwol is the setting of the movie 'The King and the Clown' and is also designated as a special second home zone, where one can receive tax benefits for owning a single house. The site visit became even more diverse as Yang Se-hyung, who dreams of a second house, Kim Dae-ho, who already uses an annex, and Gyeong Su-jin, who enjoys second house life in Boryeong, shared their experiences. This Yeongwol second house special will be broadcast on MBC at 10 PM on the 9th.

Those dreaming of a second house gather in one place

For this site visit, cast members with different living arrangements gathered. Yang Se-hyung, who dreams of a second house, and Kim Dae-ho, who uses an annex next to his main house as a second house, traveled together. Gyeong Su-jin, who is already enjoying second house life in Boryeong, Chungnam, also headed to Yeongwol.
