Ep98 Spoiler

2012-06-10T21:16:00.004-07:00

The amazing reasoning skills of the ‘Running Man’ members amazed the staff.
The June 10th episode of SBS TV’s ‘Running Man’ presented a mysterious race with the concept of ‘Strange School Trip’.
Lee Kwang Soo became the self-proclaimed jjang, Song Ji Hyo was the #1 beauty, HaHa was the son of a rich family, Yoo Jae Suk the dance jjang, Kim Jong Kook the model student, Gary the working student, and Ji Suk Jin the stock market wreck and they headed to ‘Running High School’ for their school trip.
The members were carrying out the missions in Incheon when some high school students approached them. The high school girls said that they were on a school trip and said things like, “I like you so much I started to talk to you” and handed a toothbrush, a letter, a chocolate cookie, T-shirt, hair spray, and more. The students hinted “You’ll need it later. keep it a secret from the other members.”
At the end of the day, the members arrived at Muido for the night. The member carried out a strangely easy mission to find a piece of paper with an ‘R’ on it but everyone but were distracted as they enjoyed the time afterward by the campfire thinking back to the school days.
Later when the treasure hunt started, Gary had a secret meeting with the PD while the members felt that something was off. It turns out Gary was the zombie among them. Gary received the mission to turn each and every member into a zombie by taking off their name tags.
Gary was quick on his feet taking off Song Ji Hyo’s name tag off turning her into a zombie while she was having a conversation with Kim Jong Kook. Kim Jong Kook quickly was turned into a zombie as well.
Yoo Jae Suk, Ji Suk Jin, HaHa, and Lee Kwang Soo were oblivious to the occurrence and were shocked to find out about the news of zombies on TV. It was explained on TV that in order to eliminate the zombies, you had to shoot them with a water gun containing a special liquid and also take their name tag off.
The remaining human members started to come up with a plan. They remembered the items from the high school girls earlier in the day. The secret was in the origin of the products. The room with the flag of the country of the origin had the gun and the fluid that could kill the zombies.
The production staff was taken aback. The ‘Running Man’ members so quickly figured out the way to eliminate the zombies that it shocked the staff.
Yoo Jae Suk and Ji Suk Jin shot Lee Kwang Soo with a water gun when he suggested to go out to a brighter location when they learned that the zombies hate the darkness. Lee Kwang Soo had already turned into a zombie by then. Kim Jong Kook was also eliminated subsequently as the members deduced correctly that he had become a zombie.
Ji Suk Jin was taken out by Yoo Jae Suk eventually, and the battle between the human Yoo Jae Suk and zombies Song Ji Hyo and Gary ensued.
Yoo Jae Suk unfortunately was attacked by the zombies and Gary, the zombie won in the end.

RM's PD talks about Ji Hyo & her place on the show

2012-05-24T20:33:00.002-07:00

Production director of ‘Running Man’ Mr. Jo Hyo Jin spoke about Song Ji Hyo‘s rumors on her leaving the show.
SBS ‘Running Man’s PD Jo Hyo Jin met up with the press at a restaurant in the Hongdae area on May 24th. He gave an honest interview about the last 3 years of ‘Running Man’ and about the filming that took in Thailand with Premier League footballer Park Ji Sung. Many questions about Song Ji Hyo was asked as well. She was beloved by the fans as ‘Monday Couple’ with Gary, but after it was revealed she was dating in real life, people had voiced that her role on the show had been reduced.
PD Jo Hyo Jin stated, “It’s true that Song Ji Hyo was very much loved because of ‘Monday Couple’ and that image had been imprinted on our viewers. It’s a good ingredient but it’s not a must from a production crews’ point of view. When it comes to ‘Monday Couple’ I told her to continue or stop at her own accord.”
The PD continued, “It isn’t as if they were really going out and they were merely playing a couple on the show. Even though her real life romance had been revealed, we could have continued with the ‘Monday Couple’ concept if we wanted to. Even now time to time ‘Monday Couple’ resurfaces. They say her role had been reduced because ‘Monday Couple’ is no longer the mainstay of her character, but even in simple games there’s no member that can even challenge Song Ji Hyo. She’s a quick thinker and her desire to win is greater than any.”
The press pointed that there were rumors about Song Ji Hyo leaving ‘Running Man’ because right about the time her real life romance had been revealed, she also accepted a role in a movie. The rumor was that Song Ji Hyo’s agency told the ‘Running Man’ production team that she was leaving the show due to the filming of the movie and that the ‘Running Man’ production team were having meetings with other female entertainers to replace her. PD Jo Hyo Jin addressed the rumor, “That’s absolutely untrue.”
The PD added, “To be honest with you there was a misunderstanding between the two sides. I think they felt unappreciated because of the rumors about us interviewing other female stars. However, the truth is that we haven’t met a single female star. We’ve also met with Song Ji Hyo’s people to adjust the schedule. The conversation was simply about cooperating fully with each other.”
Real variety shows generally have low cast member turnover and ‘Running Man’ for the exception of few members leaving the show, there were no changing of cast member or new member brought in. The reason for this is because of the friendship the cast members had developed through the difficult days when there were real possiblities that the show might get cancelled due to low ratings.
PD Jo Hyo Jin explained, “If the members had problems with each other during that one year when things were so tough, the show must have self-destructed then. They must have been offered spots on many other shows but they stuck together, helping each other out and we’ve endured the difficult time together. Right in the middle of all that was Yoo Jae Suk“, and the PD expressed his gratitude for the national mc.

For the day’s ‘Running Man’ survival race, Suzy appeared as an angel and handed a bell to Gary. Then Han Seung Yeon also appeared as an angel and thought things over between Yoo Jae Suk and Song Ji Hyo after saying, “I can only be an angel for one of the two of you.”
After a round of rock-paper-scissors, the power of the angel went to Han Seung Yeon. Han Seung Yeon said to Yoo Jae Suk, “It’s good that you came” and handed a small name tag.
The five girl group members have been waiting an hour before the ‘Running Man’ members had arrived. The girl group angels selected the ‘Running Man’ member they wish would win and only when the member they selected comes to them would they be able to take on the role of an angle. When a ‘Running Man’ other than the member they selected comes to them, they would be at a disadvantage.
Han Seung Yeon had picked Yoo Jae Suk and Yoo Jae Suk was selected. Song Ji Hyo was listening outside and realized that Yoo Jae Suk had two lives now. Han Seung Yeon looked cute and silly when she tagged on the name tag and brought laughter to the viewers.

HaHa gives J.Y. Park a little piece of his own advice

2012-04-30T05:03:00.001-07:00

Singer HaHa made a biting comment towards singer/producer J.Y. Park.
On April 29th, J.Y. Park and actor Chun Jung Myun guested on SBS‘s ‘Running Man‘. During the recording, they had a black bean noodle eating contest.
J.Y. Park stood in front of the Running Man members, who wanted female guests, with much nervousness. With the release of his new album, J.Y. Park sang a portion of a song within the album. However, because of his nervousness and because it was so early in the morning, J.Y. Park’s voice cracked in the middle of the song.
HaHa quickly responded by stating, “You should have used half breath and half sound” – cleverly referring to J.Y. Park’s famous saying as a judge on ‘Survival Audition K-Pop Star‘.
HaHa added, “You shouldn’t have judged others, but used half breath and half sound yourself.” J.Y. Park responded, “You’re right. When you are nervous, your breath disappears” – owning up to his mistake.
