Running Man: Episode 229

by gummimochi

*

Aww, let’s all give the resident grump a hug. Never has someone being so ill-humored and crabby been so entertaining khổng lồ watch than with Lee Seo-jin. His droll delivery & no nonsense at all the ridiculous facets of this show adds an extra charm that makes me snort in response & giggle for the entire episode.

What’s better is that all the cast wants to vì chưng is love him & play with the peevish mat hyung. Accept the bromance invitation, Seojinnie!

EPISODE 229. Broadcast on January 11, 2015.

*

It’s a blustery cold morning as Day 2 breaks in Incheon. Prior lớn the opening, Seung-gi meets with Taek PD alone lớn receive his own secret mission: eliminate Chae-won và the Running Man cast members undetected. “This smells of betrayal,” Seung-gi breathes.

He’s at a clear disadvantage since the cast members know every in và out of nametag ripping in their four & a half year experience—thus, his special guest will be helping him out today. Enter Lee Seo-jin affectionately known as Seojinnie, whose first words are, “Why are there so many cameras in here?” and then “I really didn’t want to come.”

Not thrilled about having to physically exert himself, Seo-jin shifts all the responsibility to lớn Seung-gi: “…you run,” “…you rip off their nametags.” He’s already aware that Jong-kook isn’t easy lớn take down, adding, “Just tear my nametag off first.”

*

They’re given a heads-up about the opening mission that will keep the other eight occupied; should they complete this nametag mission, they’ll acquire a special bonus. Catch is, they must both be present for any eliminations khổng lồ count. Seung-gi lớn Seo-jin: “Hyung, I think you’ll have to vị some running.” Seo-jin: “Are you out to make me hurl?”

They’ll have to be extra careful since any bit of suspicion will count against them. Seung-gi wonders if he should pull the members aside in a room lớn get the job done, và Seo-jin says that’s where he’ll be waiting. Hahaha.

The official opening takes place half an hour later, and while the atmosphere is warm và lively despite the cold, we see Seo-jin (who’d been all grumpy about this mission) keeping close watch in the lobby.

*
*

Seung-gi tries lớn keep his reactions in check as the others receive their opening mission lớn find the hidden cards & use them to figure out a puzzle. It sounds pretty mathy, & when Chae-won inadvertently knocks knees with Jae-suk in an effort to copy his comic “Let’s go!” pose, the guys congregate around her to kiểm tra if she’s okay.

It appears the others have already read the news about Seo-jin’s guest appearance today, much to lớn Seung-gi’s surprise. His voice falters as he searches for a good explanation, và Taek PD swoops in lớn answer that Seo-jin will be joining them later since he’ll be coming straight from the airport.

Seung-gi plays dumb at the half-truth (apparently Seo-jin was traveling overseas; he just came in earlier than the others think), & those words are legit enough for the others.

*
*

With that, they head out, và Seung-gi hangs back khổng lồ text Seo-jin that he’ll be bringing in people soon. The response? “I got it, so let’s finish this up quickly so we can go and eat.” Ha.

Ji-hyo finds a number card right away and so vày a few others. Seung-gi is in total panic mode và he’ll have lớn hurry if he even has a chance of completing this mission. Of course, Seo-jin has no idea as he yawns in boredom-jet-lag.

As soon as Jong-kook disappears, Seung-gi draws attention to lớn Seo-jin’s presence to lớn Kwang-soo. Our giraffe steps inside to lớn say hello, which is when Seung-gi rips off his nametag. It doesn’t even register khổng lồ Kwang-soo that he’s been eliminated at first, as he’s told to take a seat.

*
*

It’s only when Seo-jin matter-of-factly tells him that he’s here to yunno, oust everyone in a nametag mission does Kwang-soo realize that Seo-jin & Seung-gi are in cahoots with each other. Kwang-soo points out that their separate mission is meaningless then, lớn which Seo-jin says he couldn’t care less about that.

Chae-won fortuitously walks into the same room a little later. She’s startled to lớn see her actor sunbae casually sitting there, & has a belated response lớn her nametag getting torn off. When Kwang-soo teases her for being super dense just now, she returns, “…what about you, Oppa?” Ha, true—she certainly has a point there.

*
*

Seo-jin is encouraged khổng lồ move to lớn a different location, since it’s only a matter of time until the others catch on and suspect. Chae-won worries that Seo-jin won’t get any airtime at this rate, but that’s honestly the least of his worries: “I don’t want lớn be on air. I have no selfish desire on this show.” Pfft, how is everything that comes out of his mouth so hilariously grumpy?

Chae-won: “We have lớn promote our movie, go on.” Seo-jin: “I’m a special guest! Why would I promote anything?”

Interestingly, Chae-won makes sure both Seung-gi & Se-jin have left before talking khổng lồ Kwang-soo in hushed whispers. What’s more curious is that Suk-jin points out how flustered Seung-gi looked earlier, & looks up to lớn see Kwang-soo and Chae-won signal that they’re both eliminated. Oooh, there’s another secret mission, isn’t there?

*
*

Two hours earlier. The Running Man cast and Chae-won are told of Seung-gi và Seo-jin’s spy mission, which elicit a laugh out of the all-too experienced Jong-kook: “How embarrassing.” Their mission is to be eliminated without arousing suspicion, & in practice, it also takes a few awkward seconds for Chae-won to realize that she’s already been eliminated.

Ha, so that explains why Kwang-soo had lớn stifle his laughter, remembering how her reaction was a beat too late then too. It actually makes this mission a lot more amusing as Jong-kook points out Seung-gi’s odd behavior.

Our experienced cast has already caught on lớn the idea that the “spies” are pulling them aside one by one, so they decide lớn humor their guests. Jae-suk heads up as the sacrificial lamb, playing his part lớn a T in front of Seo-jin.

*
*

I love how Jae-suk calls Seo-jin “Three Meals Hyung” (a reference khổng lồ the just-completed cooking variety show Three Meals A Day) và again, Seo-jin says matter-of-factly that he’s just doing as he’s told.

Haha’s surprised reaction is spot-on, as well as Ji-hyo’s. She remarks on how Seo-jin gives off airs like a man born of privilege—someone who doesn’t lượt thích getting sweaty or the cold. He wouldn’t be the least bit sorry if someone else is freezing next lớn him, rather boasting about the many layers he’d wear lớn keep warm.

*
*

Now only Gary và Jong-kook remain, & the two barely get khổng lồ work out a strategy before they’re approached by Seung-gi and Seo-jin. Gary makes a deliberate show of stepping aside, and Seung-gi’s doesn’t pick up on why.

So while our spies think that they’re being covert, our cast finds their behavior just plain funny. Seung-gi’s practically giggling with “victory” so close at hand & Gary runs around for him before pretending lớn be scared lớn greet Seo-jin.

Seo-jin goes ahead lớn rip off Gary’s nametag, saying that they can go & eat now. “So you eliminated me lượt thích this because you wanted khổng lồ eat?” Gary asks.

*
*

Seung-gi is totally pleased with himself, thinking that he was an admirable spy. Gary lets him believe it, and it’s only when the eight are declared the winners does Seung-gi believe the truth. “I knew it was too easy!”

Seo-jin’s face is neither excited nor disappointed, just, So what? Then it’s time to lớn announce teams, & Seo-jin looks super uncomfortable despite Jae-suk’s insistence that they’re friendly. The Today’s Love costars are paired together, và then Seo-jin gripes over the overacting between Kwang-soo và Jong-kook.

Haha isn’t all that excited to lớn be teamed up with Suk-jin, and lastly the Monday Couple are paired off together.

*
*

All of our couples are given small pouches to wear for today’s Couple Race. Seo-jin looks even more hilarious when he wears his off-the-shoulder instead of like a crossbody, but he’s most uncomfortable about Jae-suk’s constant efforts to look chummy together.

There are 15 pairs of different number and operation cards randomly divided among our five couples. The team that gets rid of all their cards the fastest at the final mission station will be declared today’s victors. In order lớn that, the đứng đầu three teams from each games may trade cards with other teams to create pairs which in turn will cancel the other out.

*

Everyone heads out & the Haha-Suk-jin couple stop Jae-suk and Seo-jin to chia sẻ a name acrostic: “Hey there. Seojinnie. We really love you!” Seo-jin just tells Jae-suk to lớn drive away, and Haha remarks that Seo-jin really didn’t enjoy it.

In his car, Jae-suk offers to return the favor khổng lồ Haha, an idea Seo-jin flatly turns down. But they kết thúc up pulling up khổng lồ Haha and Suk-jin’s car và Jae-suk starts, “Hahaha,” then nudges Seo-jin. He ends up yelling, “Don’t vì chưng that!” (the phrase “Hajimah“). Heh, a perfect fit.

Once they all gather at the ocean shore, our teams are informed of their first game: My Love Piggyback Ride. Here, one person will crawl under a net, jump to grab a sandal in a pouch và climb onto their teammate’s back. From there they’ll be carried and must successfully kick the shoe into a basket.

*
*

The first place team that completes this mission needn’t participate any further (in this game). Jae-suk tries that line to appease Seo-jin, who then whispers at him khổng lồ go be their runner. Hahaha, he really doesn’t want to work up a sweat if he can help it.

I bởi realize that a viewer who’s not familiar with Seo-jin’s grumpiness that Korea now knows him for (from Grandpa Over Flowers) could possibly find him off-putting. Despite his outwardly crankiness, he’s already shown that he works hard once he decides to bởi vì so. He doesn’t, however, seem khổng lồ enjoy the acrostic of his name any better when Jae-suk repeats it.

Haha crawls through the net first—when he plucks off another team’s pouch, he cleverly tosses it far away. He tries again, but his short stature works against him. Seung-gi và Chae-won are the first ones khổng lồ kick their sandal… that lands inches in front of them.

*
*

All the couples try khổng lồ kick their sandals in, and Ji-hyo gets pretty close… until Seo-jin interferes và kicks it out. That’s a pretty accurate interference attempt—look who wants to win now. But Jong-kook and Kwang-soo are the first ones to lớn succeed.

Chae-won & Suk-jin cheer their teammates on (“I’ll treat you to a meal!” “I’ll buy you a house!”) which spurs Jae-suk lớn ask for some encouraging words. “Do a good job, vì a good job,” Seo-jin returns.

Since Haha is too short lớn reach his pouch, he tosses a shoe at it. That’s smart, & the others copy that same method. And as expected, Seung-gi lives up to lớn his heodang status by overshooting his first shoe, then the second wraps the pouch around the pole even further. LOL, what luck.

*
*

The Monday Couple nearly gets their sandal into the basket. They try again và snag second place. Jae-suk has khổng lồ remind Seo-jin of their promises to switch places for this upcoming round, và when Seo-jin threatens khổng lồ leave, Kwang-soo envelops him in a backhug. Aww.

Jae-suk has had enough of Seo-jin’s prickly personality, finally letting his pent-up rage burst: “Who’s the one that casted him?!” All arrows point to lớn Seung-gi, who’s flanked on both sides by men in their forties.

Jae-suk momentarily slips up by calling Seung-gi as Seung-jin (a combo of Seung-gi & Seo-jin), blaming the mix-up on his frustrations at Seo-jin. Seo-jin get called out for not looking lượt thích he’s ready to run, & then when the whistle blows, he moves at a pace of a brisk walk.

*
*

It’s great how the captions would like to point out that this is the first time Seo-jin is crawling under a net on a variety show. He knocks down the pouch, and Jae-suk promises khổng lồ get it on the first tray. He doesn’t, and Seo-jin immediately drops him.

In the time Jae-suk outs Seo-jin for his peeved state, the young’uns score third place. First place gets to lớn switch two cards while second and third places can exchange one. While the teams are busy going back & forth about their stash, Seo-jin tells them lớn just get it over with already.

*
*

Jong-kook and Kwang-soo are overtly pleased to end up with a pair that third place Chae-won gives them. So the Monday Couple attempt to lớn break up that pair, only lớn fail in doing so.

Kwang-soo inadvertently ends up giving up a card that helps out Jae-suk & Seo-jin, but unlike the tight hug between the Tiger & Giraffe, Seo-jin just pushes his teammate away, uncomfortable by the proximity. Another switch still has Seo-jin and Jae-suk over up with one pair anyway.

*

In the car, Jae-suk says that Seo-jin’s poker face confused everyone else. But Seo-jin isn’t all that interested in winning today (or so he says), wondering what all the fuss is about in exchanging some cards.

Kwang-soo deduces that the other team must have another 7, judging from their expressions from when they both received & lost that card. Kwang-soo passes by Haha’s car, saying that he doesn’t see Suk-jin. Eep, they didn’t leave him behind, did they? HA, nope—he’s just snoring peacefully in the car.

So it appears that Seo-jin và Ji-hyo are former costars from the historical drama Gyebaek. When she gets teased for something she allegedly said back then, Ji-hyo threatens to lớn out his secrets. Unperturbed, Seo-jin counters, “Who vày you think will have more secrets—you or me?”

*

Jae-suk takes it upon himself to lớn invite Seo-jin’s niece to lớn watch them film. Aw, she’s a fan of Kwang-soo’s. Seo-jin finally cracks a smile in front of his niece.

This second trò chơi is entitled Lovey Dovey Backhug, where they’ll have 60 seconds to move five of a selected object while handling large poles in a backhug position. Jae-suk and Seo-jin are up first with plastic shower seats, & it almost looks lượt thích Seo-jin is enjoying himself.

But when the seats keep slipping out of his grasp, Seo-jin resorts to lớn pushing the seats under the table. They manage khổng lồ get one before time is up. Haha & Suk-jin are worse off with having to deal with lipsticks, but at least Suk-jin keeps a smile on his face despite his growing annoyance. Caption: My name is Big Nose. I’m a man who doesn’t know what it means khổng lồ give up.

*
*

And that when the tide starts to turn because Suk-jin gets a good grip on the lipsticks as the others cheer him on. Although he gets all five on the table, he’s way over the time-limit. Seung-gi is chosen khổng lồ take the lead after some back & forth, though the others doubt that he’ll vì a good job.

To their surprise, he picks it up, his face totally focused. At the last moment, Chae-won feigns a fainting spell khổng lồ try & be funny; I feel like intentional humor just doesn’t land the same way unexpected variety moments do, và she’s fortunate(?) enough lớn fall back onto the ground moments later.

Switching places doesn’t help, and when none of the other couples succeed, it’s back to Jae-suk & Seo-jin. They pick another relatively easy tác phẩm (pots) và the others are quick to point out the competitive và focused look in Seo-jin’s eyes.

*
*

Seo-jin kicks Kwang-soo away when the latter attempts to lớn interfere. & despite Kwang-soo’s efforts, Seo-jin và Jae-suk succeed. Seung-gi and Chae-won grab second place, và Kwang-soo tries khổng lồ put a positive spin on their item: lipstick.

Suk-jin offers some advice from the sidelines—not that they need it because the pair succeed in moving all five mere seconds before time is up. Suk-jin stays positive, though, telling the viewers that today’s just not his day and they can tune in next week.

Jong-kook is displeased with the thẻ he & Kwang-soo acquire from Seung-gi và Chae-won. The latter two over up with a pair after their switch, và the others catch a nervous-looking Seo-jin trying to lớn sneak a peek. Jae-suk, however, is pleased by the Bo-chun Hyung (an abbreviation of “Dimples Angel,”) and does a good job preserving his delight at getting another pair.

*
*

Taek PD announces that two couples have a matching pair & that one couple has two pairs. In their respective cars, Jong-kook & Kwang-soo believe that they’re tied with Seung-gi and Chae-won, and the Monday Couple guess that the team that’s gotten the most chance at switching cards — Jae-suk và Seo-jin — are currently the ones in first place.

Jae-suk & Seo-jin take a trip down memory lane by listening khổng lồ ’90s club hits. Seo-jin says their generation refer khổng lồ the nightclubs in their day as “night” with their rock & blues music while the young’uns go to lớn “clubs” with their electro dance music.

Our teams arrive at their final mission location, where they’re told khổng lồ hand over their matching cards & yell “Clear!” Jong-kook asks if they have to, & Kwang-soo requests a nice CG effect to accompany it.

*
*

Jae-suk makes Seo-jin redo the kích hoạt when the latter tosses his cards in. Kwang-soo & Jong-kook get the CGI smoke effect they’re looking for và wonder where their cards have gone.

Here, our teams will be ripping off the numbers or signs of operation they need lớn create a match, exchanging it for another card. Those matches will only be acknowledged if they place both cards and announce the particular card “cleared.” Again, the team that clears all their cards the fastest, wins.

Seung-gi and Chae-won circle around the Monday Couple, who try to lớn keep their own numbers hidden. It turns out the Monday Couple is a primary target for Jong-kook as well, và when Ji-hyo asks if she has something Chae-won wants, Chae-won cries that she didn’t even get khổng lồ see yet.

*
*

Seung-gi tries khổng lồ sneak up on Gary and Ji-hyo, only lớn find himself targeted by Jong-kook. Spartakooks grabs the number he needs. Elsewhere, Jae-suk finds himself trying to fight off Suk-jin và Haha alone (because Seo-jin is sitting around somewhere else).

Haha rips off the 5 off Jae-suk’s back lớn get the first match, leaving Jae-suk with a division sign. Seo-jin lets out a dry laugh when he hears that he must enter the arena now. He saunters down the room, stopping to comment when Jong-kook runs down the escalator lớn catch someone: “He’ll win, I guess.”

He peeks around the corner lớn see Chae-won lying on her back (to protect her numbers) and somehow sits back down to remark how the kids are running around for nothing. Ha.

*
*

After Jae-suk fails in grabbing the 4 on Chae-won’s back, they’re joined by a few others who realize that the 4 is the last thẻ Jae-suk needs. She manages to get away. Not too far off, Seo-jin is targeted by Haha & Seung-gi—his attempt lớn pull rank is futile in this 2:1 attack and gets his 4 thẻ taken away by Haha.

Now Seung-gi has reason lớn go after Haha & tries lớn employ Seo-jin’s help. Seo-jin walks away, all, You guys figure it out.

He và Jae-suk approach Jong-kook và Kwang-soo và break up into 1:1 battles. The others use this distraction as an opportunity khổng lồ attack one another, và then Jae-suk grabs the division sign he and Seo-jin need for the win.

*

Once everyone gathers together again, Jong-kook points out that Seo-jin didn’t join in with his teammate khổng lồ dramatically “clear” their last card. Seo-jin isn’t interested in sticking around for the closing, but gets dragged back to vì chưng it.

He raises his arm without making the sound effect, & then says a dull “clear,” to lớn Jae-suk’s disappointment. He gets wrangled to lớn at least bởi the booming aftereffect, and then takes his gold ring prize. In fact, he swipes Jae-suk’s portion, pocketing one và giving the other to lớn Chae-won.

The others tell Seung-gi that he can come collect his goal next time, to lớn which Seung-gi jokes: “Give me my backlog of gold.” After he và Chae-won offer some final words, Seo-jin says he didn’t like this show already, but now “I hate it even more.” I’d say those dimples of yours appear betray those words, good sir.
