Running Man
Though variety entertainment is gradually disappearing, this show remains one of Korea's representative variety programs, having occupied Sunday evenings for over 10 years. In the program, many stars and members participate in games and missions together, with a notable feature being their travel to various locations. The show emphasizes laughter as a central element among the many forms of entertainment it offers. Open your eyes! Big fun enters! Open your mouth! A big smile enters! Open your mind! An instructive lesson enters!
