"Running Man" Members Battle To Rank Higher Than Each Other

Oct 22, 2018

On the October 21 episode of “Running Man,” the members battled against each other to get higher ranks than others.

It was the first battle to set the final hierarchy of the members after Jun So Min and Yang Se Chan joined the cast. All the members were full of tension in order to get that better rank. Viewers laughed as the members groveled when their ranks were low and became snobby as their ranks became higher.

In each round of the battle, there was one secret agent who could manipulate the ranks. The first agent was Lee Kwang Soo. He chose the theme, “Who is the best dresser?” and gave first place to HaHa and the last place to Kim Jong Kook. He said, “If we had a 1000th place, I would have given 1000th place to Kim Jong Kook.”

The second mission’s agent was HaHa, but the members were not able find out who the agent was. Later, Song Ji Hyo called her close friend Jang Yoon Joo to ask who’s the most good looking person out of the whole “Running Man” cast. Jang Yoon Joo gave Song Ji Hyo first place, Jun So Min second place, and gave Yoo Jae Suk last place.

However, Yoo Jae Suk was the final and ultimate secret agent who knew all the results from the beginning. During the last mission, the members were able to finally guess that Yoo Jae Suk was the ultimate secret agent. Yoo Jae Suk was supposed to get penalized, but Lee Kwang Soo said that he wants to put it aside for now and wait for the perfect moment.

During the final mission, the members each threw dice to set their final ranks. They would add the numbers that they got, and the one with the highest number in the end would get the highest rank. The odds were in Ji Suk Jin‘s favor, and he took first place.

All the members were surprised at the results. The final moment of the episode reached up to 10.1 percent in viewership ratings per minute. Ji Suk Jin shouted, “Life is one round!” as he smiled in victory.
