Kim Jong Kook, the "newlywed" who held a private wedding with a non-celebrity in September last year, has aroused curiosity with a cryptic remark.
In the episode of SBS' Running Man airing on the 19th, the "commute yahoo" Race, which decides work start times, takes place.
At a recent recording, during the opening, welcome updates on the Running Man members were revealed one after another, extending the festive atmosphere. Haha announced the news of holding his first fan concert since debut, receiving congratulations from the members, and then Jee Seokjin and Ji Ye-eun shared the welcome news that the project duo "Chungju Jissi" is about to release a new song, further enlivening the scene.
As the warm atmosphere continued, Kim Jong Kook also said, "I have good news too," hinting at a meaningful surprise announcement that drew everyone's attention. The unexpected remark set off a flurry of guesses from the members, creating a stir. This has raised further curiosity about what Kim Jong Kook's "welcome news" might be.
Meanwhile, the race that day was arranged as the "commute yahoo" Race, which by random selection determines next week's opening filming time. As members' random choices could change their fate from early-morning commutes to evening commutes, the scene was tense from the start.
When the basic start time of "5:30 a.m." was revealed, the members collectively protested, saying "That's too early!" and reportedly showed a fiercer competitive spirit than usual. All eyes are on what next week's work start time will be, which will decide the members' fates.
Meanwhile, the Running Man "commute yahoo" Race airs on Sunday the 19th at 6 p.m.
