BTS’s V had the entire cast of “Running Man” lining up for him on the show’s latest episode!
On September 10, the popular variety program aired its highly-anticipated episode featuring V as a guest. The episode marked V’s first appearance on “Running Man” in over seven years, as he last appeared on the show with the rest of BTS in 2016.
Yoo Jae Suk expressed his surprise at finding out that V had been hoping for years to return to the show as a guest, and Ji Suk Jin asked why he’d wanted to appear on “Running Man” in particular.
Explaining that he was a huge fan of the show, V replied, “You know how you watch TV when you eat a meal? I only ever watch ‘Running Man’ [while eating].”
Ji Suk Jin then asked which member he’d been most excited to see again, and V created a stir of jealousy among the cast as he answered, “HaHa.”
Later on in the episode, the show’s production team asked V to rank the “Running Man” members in the order that he thought their side profiles resembled his own. The production team also explained that the top two members that V thought resembled him would be given extra land in their game.
After V shared that he would be deciding based on his “personal preferences,” he chose Song Ji Hyo as the member whose side profile most resembled his own.
The other “Running Man” members immediately agreed with his decision, with HaHa remarking, “This one’s impossible to deny.” Yoo Jae Suk and Kim Jong Kook chimed in, “Agreed, agreed.”
For second place, V picked Kim Jong Kook, who was unable to hide his joy as he covered his face with his hands and exclaimed in amazement, “Wow, what to do? V picked… picked me!”
Although Jun So Min jokingly expressed her disappointment at first, the “Running Man” cast accepted his decision after V pointed out, “[Kim Jong Kook] has a really beautiful nose.” Ji Suk Jin agreed, “That’s right, a lot of people mistakenly think that [Kim Jong Kook] had a nose job.”
However, the “Running Man” members were unable to accept V’s choice for third place: Yoo Jae Suk. As the cast openly expressed their annoyance, HaHa jokingly exclaimed, “If you do this, everything you said up until now becomes a lie!”
V then went on to choose Jun So Min for fourth place, HaHa for fifth place, and Ji Suk Jin for sixth place—ultimately leaving Yang Se Chan in last place.
