Choi Min Soo returns for ‘Running Man hunting’ this Sunday

The ‘Running Man‘ cast members will be holding their fateful encounter with their long-time ‘enemy’, Choi Min Soo, this Sunday.

Knowing nothing of their fate, the ‘Running Man’ cast members gleefully welcomed who they supposed was their guest for this episode – beautiful actress Park Bo Young.

Believing that this episode was a couple selection theme to select the next ‘Monday Couple’, the cast members worked their hardest to become the new couple with the cute actress.

However, after arriving at their last location – a darkened camp ground – the cast members were sent out into the darkness on a sham mission, where they would soon encounter the ‘hunter’, Choi Min Soo himself – setting the stage for the third, horrifying encounter with the charismatic actor.

“I’m here to end this 1:1 stalemate,” he announced. The full episode can be caught this Sunday, but in the meantime, you can check out the previously revealed clip below if you missed it earlier.

Lee Kwang Soo’s past manly photos shock netizens

Lee Kwang Soo‘s past photos have been gaining attention lately, as they were recently uploaded on an online community site.

Posted along with the title, “The gum-chewing Lee Kwang Soo’s past“, the photos show Lee Kwang Soo sporting a mustache and showing off his six-pack. Netizens were surprised at the sight of these pictures, as they revealed Lee Kwang Soo’s previously masculine and charismatic image as opposed to his currently fully-clothed and silly self seen in SBS‘s ‘Running Man’.

Netizens commented, “Is this really Lee Kwang Soo the giraffe?“, “[But] this is far from his [usual] dim-witted image. His charisma [was] the best,” “His manliness is overflowing,” and, “Even if he picked a fight with Kim Jong Kook (fellow ‘Running Man’ cast member), he seems like he’d be fine.”

Who did the best parody of G-Dragon’s ‘seaweed’ hairstyle?

On April 20th, Big Bang made an appearance as a guest on SBS’s ‘Go Show‘ and leader G-Dragon talked about his exotic hairstyle, which fans have called the ‘seaweed’ hairstyle.

As ‘Go Show”s MC Go Hyun Jung asked G-Dragon how he felt about his new hairstyle becoming a hot issue, the trendmaker answered, “My hairstyle has both pros and cons. It looks really fancy and cool on stage, but all the hair kept on getting inside my mouth during concerts.”

He continued, “But I found a solution to this problem. Now when I rap, I lean my head slightly to the right so that my hair doesn’t get in the way. Also, sometimes when I hit my hair, it returns back to its original position!”

G-Dragon’s hairstyle has been nicknamed the ‘seaweed’ hairstyle and has been parodied by various comedians in different comedy and variety programs.

On March 24th, comedian Ahn Young Mi copied the hairstyle on tvN’s ‘Comedy Big League‘. Also, comedian Yang Se Hyung dressed up as G-Dragon with the seaweed hair on the April 3rd episode of SBS’s ‘Strong Heart‘. On the same show, comedian Boom brought in actual seaweed to show a hilarious parody of the singer as well!

Also, even though not shown on the ‘Go Show’, national MC Yoo Jae Suk seems to have wanted the same hairstyle as G-Dragon, as he transformed into ‘G-Drasuk’ on SBS’s ‘Running Man‘!

 
So who do you think did the best parody of G-Dragon’s ‘seaweed’ hair? Let us know in the comments below!

Ha Ji Won screams after seeing Yoo Jae Suk without his glasses

Popular actress Ha Ji Won caused much laughter as she could not contain her shock and horror seeing Yoo Jae Suk‘s face without his glasses.

On the March 18th broadcast of SBS‘s “Running Man“, Ha Ji Won and Dynamic Duo‘s Gaeko made guest appearances in the program’s ‘1st Running Man Athletic Competition‘.

During the episode, Ha Ji Won was given the chance to pick her team members after they reenacted the famous “sit-up scene” from her wildly popular drama, “Secret Garden“. When it was Yoo Jae Suk’s turn to perform the sit-up, he was forced to take of his trademark glasses at the request of the Running Man members.

As she first looked down on Yoo Jae Suk’s unadorned face, Ha Ji Won screams and exclaims, “It’s a different person!” as she fell back away from Korea’s favorite MC.  Thereafter, she continues to yelp when his face got close to her’s during the sit-ups, much to the hilarity of the cast members.

Check out the hilarious moment in this clip of the “Secret Garden” parody (Jae Suk’s part begins at 1:55)

Big Bang’s TOP is like Lee Gwang Soo

In the upcoming episode of “Running Man,” the Big Bang members came on as guests. During the filming, TOP showed a very unexpected and new side of him.

In KBS drama “IRIS,” TOP played a charismatic killer, but here, he showed his clumsy side.

Taeyang commented on the transformation, “Unlike people’s image of TOP, he is the Gwang Soo hyung of Big Bang. He is not cold, but rather he is a soon-doong-ee. In other words, he has his clumsy side.” Soon-doong-ee is a nickname to describe sensitive and clumsy people.

When the “Running Man” members told TOP that his real image is very different from his image on “IRIS,” he said, “The character in my drama is just a character. In real life, I have a gentle personality.”

A “Running Man” staff member said, “TOP had a smile on his face during the game, and surprised everyone with an image that is not tough nor cold.”

Will ‘Running Man’ win best program on SBS Entertainment Awards?

‘Running Man‘ recently spiked in votes as the best TV program for the 2011 ‘SBS Entertainment Awards‘, drawing attention from viewers and netizens alike.

On December 15th, SBS opened the polls for the ‘SBS Entertainment Awards’ show on their homepage. ‘Running Man’–a SBS fan favorite and an influential candidate–was listed as one of the 15 different shows competing under the category of best TV program.

According to AGB Nielson Media Research, ‘Running Man’ held a record audience high of 17.7% on their December 25th broadcast. Since their first broadcast a year and a half ago, ‘Running Man’ has held a steady audience. However, the show has seen much progression and growth in comparison to their first episode thanks to their continuous format change.

Although the concept behind ‘Running Man’ is a simple game of hide-and-seek, the show has recreated the game by adding their own interesting elements and using influences from Blockbuster movies. In particular, the latest episode received much favorable criticism for its entertaining use of movie influences and twists.

While ‘Running Man’ has gained much national popularity, the show boasts a large international fan base as well. In their Hong Kong special aired several weeks ago, hoards of international fans warmly greeted the cast members during their visit. In past episodes, ‘Running Man’ has also visited Taiwan, Thailand, China, Japan, Singapore, Malaysia, Indonesia, and Cambodia.

In addition, ‘Running Man’ is currently in the lead in viewership and is surviving the fierce battle between various variety shows.

Combine all these factors together and it appears as if ‘Running Man’ has a very likely chance of nabbing the best TV program award. Who do you want to see win this award? Make sure you cast your vote before the polls close on December 29th!

Yong Hwa Told Not to Get Married Early?

A fortune teller told CN Blue’s Jung Yong Hwa not to get married anytime soon. During the December 18 episode of SBS “Running Man,” Jung Yong Hwa had his palm read by a fortune teller in Hong Kong, who consulted on his health, business, and relationship.

The palm reader first started off nice, telling Yong Hwa, “Your business looks to be very good. It’s going to do very well. Your health is also looking fine.”

But his advice on Yong Hwa’s love line was rather gloomy as he said, “You need to wait a few more years to have a girl friend. Never try to get married too early.”

Yong Hwa at first looked surprised but seemed to agree as he exclaimed, “That’s exactly what my parents told me!”

Netziens who saw the show commented, “I guess I should get married later too,” “It’s the trend to get married late these days,” and “It’s sad that he has to wait for his girl friend too.”

Meanwhile, Jung Yong Hwa and his band CN Blue have just wrapped up their Japanese Tour Concert, selling out all 14 concerts.
