The series is almost done and she's still inventing lies. LOL. Now I'm expecting a massive downfall for her, if they don't give us that, it's going to affect the ratings. LMAO.
Re: E08 ending…That was the best revenge against the people who are using your own brother; and clearly doesn't…
Ah, that makes a lot of sense. He's like a henchman who just want to attach himself to whoever is in power and will take him as they get promoted. LOL.
"iF We hAd dRuNk At yOur hOusE tHat wOuLdn'T hAppEN"fucking bullshit lol.. is he your father or mother or gatekeeper…
He gives the worst excuses ever + he acts high and mighty. He is probably applying to become humanity's evil overlord when The Devil conquers the world or something. Everything is someone else's fault. ROFL.
Re: E08 ending…That was the best revenge against the people who are using your own brother; and clearly doesn't…
Ahh, so the chief was also kept in the dark. But why is it he is conspiring with the section chief? And is the section chief in to it, or just a trash detective who only wants to close cases as fast as possible?
I have a weird thought what if Ha seol is Park Da Eun's sister. Her presence doesn't fit. She is a weird variable.…
I'm confused… and I'm bad with names.
* Nagyeom is the rich girl & short-haired girl back in high school + actress? * Haseol is the scooter girl? * Daeun was the second murder case? * Boyeong was the first murder case?
There is also another unknown other than Nagyeom and Haseol, there was a scene where a female character was holding a mobile phone and used it to send photos to the governor couple. She was the one who trailed the car of the husband when he brought scooter girl to the hospital.
Or was that “Nagyeom”, the rich actress and short-haired girl from their high school days?
(I'm using “scooter girl” because I'm not sure who's who as far as names go.)
That was the best revenge against the people who are using your own brother; and clearly doesn't care about their own children… suicide. It was predictable and yet it was still impactful.
Even though I do not condone suicide (and I am suicidal too, mind you), I can see myself in his position, analyzing all the scenarios, and came up with the best revenge. Go back to the scene of the crime and die by hanging.
It sends a very strong message that will definitely make the people who supposedly “love” you but only protecting themselves: You want me to not tell the truth? You are using my brother to force me to lie? You don't want me to have a peaceful sleep? Well, there is only one solution where we will all be happy, suicide.
* Once I'm dead, I'll have a peaceful sleep. * Once I'm dead, you can no longer use my brother, he'll be free from you. * Once I'm dead, there will be complete silence from me. * That's what you want, right? * I'll be sleeping, no longer have worries, for the first time in my life. While you will suffer and forever feel the pain and blame yourself for my death. You pushed me, don't you ever forget that.
I can't wait for the next episode. The evil police chief finally met his match, with his eldest son. But this time, there's nothing he can do about it. He's going to find someone to blame but himself. He's going to find an excuse why it is not his fault. But deep inside, it will eat him alive until his last breath. All his crimes and lies will finally tear him apart.
The only way for him to escape this torture is death. But he is greedy. He is a coward. He is corrupt and evil. He wouldn't embrace death. He will find a way to escape by sacrificing people around him, be it his nephew or his remaining son … again.

I have no idea what it is like with the original/source material, don't spoil. ^_~
Why does MDL keep tagging Jae Suk as the main host? It's been like this for a while and someone managed to correct…
They are all “hosts” or “members” (whichever terminology you want to use), however, there is always someone who acts as the “main” or “lead” that directs the rest of the group. It was like that since E01.
> They also often get angry when he acts like a main MC when no one asked him to do that.
It's part of the comedy. They are not “angry” and they are fully aware that he was chosen as the “leader” when needed. Even in real life, when the group members are close, the leader gets joked about “no one chose you” even though they were actually chosen. Much more so in a comedy show.
Even in other Running Man adaptations, there is a “Main”. The responsibility lies on them to “lead” or “guide” or to “keep everyone on track”. To be a “main” or “lead” doesn't mean you always have to take matters on your own hands or to be a one-man team. You are there behind-the-scenes.
In the latest episode, Jongkook said something along this line "Yeeun, you're becoming a regular now..."Does it…
Just a comment more likely.
Could be a hint as well. If you're appearing regularly in RM's weekly episodes, it means you have too much time available.
It can also be a warning. Too much variety show exposure can unknowingly shift their career from acting/singing to comedy. And we know they had regular members who chose to leave because they want to pursue their original career and keep that image. ^_~
is Ji Ye-eun a rental memeber?? She has been appearing for a lot of eps now and her being a rental would make…
Yep, they hired two rental members. Although I thought it was only for 3 months each. I guess the feedback for the two were so positive in Korea, the kept on extending them. I think it was because they're both in the same agency, so it was easier to get them both, and extended if needed.
LOL. I wouldn't be surprised if their agency closed a 12-month deal for both. A very good training and exposure for the two. Imagine the agency wanting Running Man instead of RM wanting the talents.
SK is way more developed than NK and backed by the United States why will they take the load of NK
I never mentioned nor imply that SoKor should “take the load of” NoKor.
If you want to discuss the economic, social, political, and cultural factors of a Unified Korea, this is not the proper forum for it.
Secondly, by your logic, you just told every single Korean who are supporting a Unified Korea that they are wrong, because “SK is way more …” this and that; especially rude to the victims of the ideological divide.
Somewhere out there… in a parallel universe… “Peace Village” exists and a similar story happened which eventually led to the unification of the Korean peninsula.
Grassroots made it happen. Ordinary people created new relationships that crossed the DMZ. They showed the politicians of both the North and the South that no political ideology can separate them any longer.
I hope the lesson from this parallel universe “leaks” into our reality, and hopefully, the Korean War will end once and for all in our time. It has gone far too long, and families who were separated by the DMZ are passing on one after another. Don't let the day come when no one can remember the pain of the separation; of an eons-old dream of having one Korean flag, united and happy together.
P.S. There are only 8 episodes officially, not 12. ^_~
I think I finally understand why there is confusion on the number of episodes for this series.= TVING and AppleTV…
For a show that wants to inspire and keep the hope of reunification alive… the production information and marketing is the most chaotic one I've ever seen in my entire life. LOL.
1. Entire cast replaced; and silence on why this happened.
2. Originally scheduled to premiere in December 2023. Months delayed due to an “internal” reason. (Probably due to North Korea, it was December 2023 when the Supreme Leader started to veer away from SoKor and the reunification dream.)
3. Why TVING OTT (KR) and AppleTV+ OTT (KR) split 2 episodes into 3? One episode Wednesday, 2 episodes every Thursday.
4. And why split it differently than Lifetime Channel (KR)? Usually, a different episode numbering happens after the original premiere ends, not while it still is airing. The production team, no doubt, filmed it as 2 episodes per week.

Aside: Lifetime Channel Korea got the exclusive airing rights. An episode is released there first before any OTT services, be it Korean or Global, can release the latest episode. Just like most other shows (Korean or otherwise), terrestrial airing first before digital distribution.
I think I finally understand why there is confusion on the number of episodes for this series.
= TVING and AppleTV Korea listed it as 12 episodes.
The reason for this is that they divided 2 episodes worth of screentime into 3 episodes. * Every Wednesday, TVING and AppleTY Korea airs one episode. * Every Thursday, they both air 2 episodes.
However, in other official OTT (and the Lifetime TV Channel in Korea), they only air 2 episodes. They split it properly as the producer intended; as E01 and E02.
Global OTT + Lifetime TV Channel Korea: E01 + E02 = Korea OTT: E01, E02, E03 Global OTT + Lifetime TV Channel Korea: E03 + E04 = Korea OTT: E04, E05, E06 Global OTT + Lifetime TV Channel Korea: E05 + E06 = Korea OTT: E07, E08, E09 Global OTT + Lifetime TV Channel Korea: E07 + E08 = Korea OTT: E10, E11, E12

Thank you!
Thank you!
Waiting for official announcement for Season 03!
So, who's the one sending the “I know what you did last summer” type of texts? Was it hinted already?
Now I'm totally drained… I was doing something while watching, I just can't any more. Time to sleep.
