On the upcoming episode of MBC’s “Save Me! Holmes” (Holmes), airing on the 30th, the cast visits the homes of people who have moved to Seoul.
In this episode, the team visits the homes of people who left their hometowns with their own dreams and settled in Seoul. For this home tour, singer Bibi (who moved from Changwon), Joo Woo-jae, and Kim Dae-ho (who moved from Yangpyeong) will join the team to examine every corner of the homes from the perspective of newcomers to Seoul, share their own experiences of living in the city, and build a sense of connection.
Before the tour begins, Bibi—who has long cited Yang Se-hyung as her ideal type—reveals the reason herself. “I like well-mannered men,” Bibi explains, “and he loves cooking and is great at managing the household.”
Faced with this unexpected compliment, Yang Se-hyung can’t hide his shyness. However, Bibi quickly turns the mood around by confessing, “My ideal type has changed now.” Attention is now focused on who Bibi’s new ideal type might be.

The trio visits the duplex studio apartment of a Busan native who has been living in Seoul for four years. As soon as the door opens, the homeowner greets the production crew with extraordinary energy—revealing himself to be “Shin Batu,” a content creator known for his Busan dialect. Having gained popularity by humorously highlighting the differences between Seoulites and Busanites through his colorful dialect, he shares stories that day that anyone who’s moved to Seoul can relate to. Watching this, Bibi exclaims, “I know this!!” and, after showing intense empathy, naturally joins the skit, showcasing perfect dialect chemistry that turns the set into a sea of laughter.
Meanwhile, Busan native Kim Sook recalls her early days in Seoul, saying, “In the provinces, people think Seoul is a dangerous place, so (when I first moved here) I looked for relatives or friends’ homes to stay at.” Jang Dong-min also brings up a “Seoul urban legend” from back then, noting, “There was a rumor that if you spoke your dialect in a taxi, the driver would take a detour on purpose.”
In response, Kim Sook draws laughter by revealing that she mastered her own outlandish trick to avoid being overcharged by taxi drivers. This only heightens curiosity about what exactly Kim Sook’s “Seoul taxi survival guide” entails.
“Holmes” features stars who take matters into their own hands to help busy modern people find homes! It’s a variety show showcasing their real-life, on-the-ground real estate battles. It airs every Thursday at 10 p.m.
