Running Man Episode 115: Muddy Love Game

Photobucket

Yoo Jae Suk trolling the remaining teams. Hee!

Loved these two episodes! I enjoyed seeing one of my top actresses with the family, but that tiny part of me wished the PD has saved the X-Man concept for Yoon Eun Hye (if she ever comes on) instead, or at least someone with a stronger connection to the show X-Man, like Kim Jong Min?

This is a spazzing post. That is all!

Right off the bat in episode 114, we have two confessions. Moon Geun Young reveals she watches Running Man for Gary, while Spartakook confesses that he adores her as an actress. I get giddy every single time an established actress chooses Gary as her favorite. You see, Gary has passed that look expectation for many ladies already. What many calls an unattractive face has become the most well-loved running man because of his cheesy lines and laid-back personality. When she quips about the vacated Monday Couple position, I was holding my breath. She’s serious!

Turns out the PD has another love line for our girl. Episode 115 begins with a banging performance from DBSG in the early morning, in a lawn. Love how everyone’s like, “WTH?…Who?…DBSG!…Seriously?!!

Oh Changmin. Look at his embarrassed smile.

Where else can you see a bashful Kim Jong Kook playing with his hair strings like a coy little girl?

Monday Couple finally has their time alone and Gary states that he’s been having the Monday Syndrome after their supposed break-up. Me too! He tries to lighten up her spirits by saying, “To be honest, I don’t think MGY is that pretty!” Aw, c’mon Gary! Focus on Ji Hyo!

I was a little bit disappointed because I was looking forward to HaHa-Changmin couple wreaking havoc across the board! We didn’t have any of that. So much potential in these two being evil kids!

SpartaKook firmly holds Miss Moon’s hand, while the others complain.

Jae Suk: “We all have to hold hands because of these two [KJKxMGY]!”
HaHa: “Just because of one couple! We all had to hold hands!”
Gary: “What’s wrong with it? It was NICE!” Right on cue, Ji Hyo laughs.

See Gary, this is the way to lift her spirits!

The Fight to the FRAME: ChangMin going fiercely against Yunho.

ChangMin is in! But where’s your partner Mr. Perfect teeth?

Photobucket

I see what you did there Miss Moon!

Photobucket

Discussing strategy and hooking arms with SpartaKook. 😛

MC Yoo preventing the success of Sparta’s dream photo.

Photobucket

Yay! You got your partner in the frame, Changminnie!

Photobucket

Although Gary is quite small, he successfully blocks Changmin in the background, who’s joining in the fun with mud-throwing. HA!

Photobucket

MC Yoo and HaHa’s petty fight. Because you need to get dirty in games like this. Reminds me so much of Family Outing.

Photobucket

Epic fail.

Photobucket

Geun Young looks perfect in every screen shot.

Photobucket

Yoo Jae Suk didn’t expect Geun Young to learn so quick from his own trick eh?

Photobucket

Giraffe is determined to STAY.

Photobucket

Lover’s Quarrel!

Photobucket

Ji Hyo is stuck in the mud.
Gary plays the part of a jilted lover, “Tell me that you want to start seeing me again!”
Ji Hyo: “YAH!!”
Gary: “Tell me now! Tell me that you do!!”
Ji Hyo: “Yah! Get lost!” *flings him to the ground*

How much do I love these two?

Blank Ji Hyo, with no care about winning. At this point.

Photobucket

Yunho’s handsome face, Jae Suk’s spooked face, earns them 2nd place!

Photobucket

Giraffe (is that you, buddy?) What a miserable day for this lad. He’s too tall for the outfit, his feet too long for the rubber boots. Just a mess.

Photobucket

Gary’s straight posture… Photobucket

Photobucket

A new couple is born.

Photobucket

Gary mindlessly enters this paradise…

Photobucket

….leading to SpartaKook’s shove of revenge. Too Funny how he keeps a straight smiling face. hahah!

Photobucket

One more.

Photobucket

Ji Hyo learns something new: Gary is high-maintenance!

Photobucket

Gary: “You didn’t know that?”
Ji Hyo: *tries to put on his rubber boots*
Gary: “You’ve to do it with your heart to get it back on! You can’t do it merely with your hands! These boots are specially made like that.”
Ji Hyo: *ignores his whines and continues*
Gary: “You have never been this good to me.”
Ji Hyo: “You’re really high-maintenance! Seriously!”
Gary: “That’s why women can’t leave me!” *Ji Hyo collapses*

The rest of the cast looks on with envy.

Did the little mermaid ever got stuck in mud? *Cue “under the sea, under the sea“*

Apparently, her boyfriend Gary is trying out new adventure on land. *flails after being pushed by Giraffe*

Now he knows land animals are not so nice.

Photobucket

Ji Hyo: “What the crap, I’m exhausted! Let’s get this over with!”

Cameraman: “???!!!!”

Photobucket

Ah, there you are mermaid boyfriend!

Photobucket

A very unhappy Lord Voldemin…

Photobucket

But he can’t help but smile. I love how Yunho has to keep up with his cool leader image while Changmin’s utter shock in his quick elimination is every bit telling on his face. heeeee!

On a random note, I’m dreading Moon’s upcoming drama with Park Shi Hoo! The cast is fantastic but the theme of this one terrifies me. Fashion! Oh Fashion! Did they not watch the slaughter of recent fashion dramas? 3 Reasons why I dislike:

  • The female villains always dresses better than our leading girls. Take a look at Baby-Faced Beauty and Fashion King. Jang Na Ra and Shin Se Kyung wore these formless rags around like they’re five.
  • The plot goes round-and-round, pitting the two girls against each other. It’s like, we get the point, no matter how hard these villains work or where they studied, they can’t beat natural talent. *roll eyes*
  • It’s boring.

You know what I was praying? Please let her be Joo Won’s leading lady in his romcom. 1987 couple! But no! No one’s listening to me. T_T

    LOL! YJS cracks me up!! haven’t been watching running man as closely as before. i still remember when i watch family outing faithfully. running man is something very boring with them running around and being separated apart!

    i also love monday couple moments. heard rumors that ji hyo broke up with her CEO bf! is this true?????

    moon geun young is hit with kookies spell already. i thought she wanted to pair up with gary!!

    flaming max is cute!!

    cringe!! i read that Choi kang hee is a POTENTIAL LEAD CANDIDATE for Joo won’s drama. i don’t know what to say anymore about the casting directors. out of all the WHOLE universe, there’s no one younger lookin?!!

      Choi Kang Hee in Protect the Boss? I like her but I dunno, this couple looks strange to me. She gives off ajuhmma vibes.

      I know many say MGY is small and frail but don’t all Korean actresses look stick skinny anyways? Most of them don’t look credible enough in action scenes, except for Ha Ji Won, who has been doing such roles since forever. So it’s a testament to the actress’ acting and the director’s magic touch of angles to pull off action scenes.

      If not MGY, my other choice: Im Joo Eun, the quirky girl in Wild Romance. She’s tough!

      • 10 thoughts on “Running Man Episode 115: Muddy Love Game

        LOL most asian actresses don’t really fit the bill for “action star”. even ha ji won is shaky. They’re just too thin. BREAKING A MAN’S ARM LIKE HE’S THE REAL TWIG?? LAUGH OUT LOUD. Really, just for the cool factor.

        im still having mixed feeligns about mgy drama with park shi hoo!!! seriously, her character is the candy, optimistic type that we see in almost every single kdrama out there, who, despite being poor and overworked, is full of smiles. ….*headdesk*. and then there’s the scheming rival who makes her designer life a living hell…and the on CUE, prince on white horse appears to save the day. I could see the story unfold with my eyes shut!

        but because i love her…..ill tune in to see……just to peek! 🙂

    What was the monday-couple syndrome Gary was talking about in the car ride? He said he had it for 3 weeks after she went public with her relationship. I cracked up watching Easy-Brothers walking into the mudflat.
    Episode 114 was an X-Man flashback, and 115 had a bunch of Family Outing flashbacks.
    When DBSK were on Family(ep17-18) They raced in the mudflats too! YJS had mentioned that most of the staff is still the same from X-Man, I guess the staff is having some nostalgic moments.

      I like the Ji Suk Jin – Song Ji Hyo photo. She just grabbed the nearest guy and it happened to be the Impala. Btw, what are the animal relations to each cast?
      Grasshopper – YJS
      Penguin – Haha
      Giraffe – Gwangsoo (But i think hes like a tall Lama or Camel because of the spitting)
      Impala (African Antelope) – Sukjin
      Tiger – JongKook
      But I think Lion Fits JongKook a bit better, since they have Choi Minsoo as the Tiger, and Jong Kooks hair (and face) look like a lion.
      A Monkey was used for Gary in the fan art, but he’s also been a Dog, since his name has “Gae”
      A Cat was also drawn as Song Ji Hyo, and she does that cat scratch motion when shes mad. I think it fits ok.

      Oh, yichung. You answered all your questions. haha XD

      Yesh! Now I remember that FO episode with Xiah and Yunho being all muddy! Hyori’s precise throw of mud at Xiah’s neck!! I love muddy games, they’re so fun to watch.

      Choi Min Soo is the HUNTER! Remember? Nobody crosses his line of sight without whimpering in fear. xD

    I love this post… I was grinning like a loony while reading it. I have seen the eps and it was cracktastic and reading about it makes me relive all the fun.. I especially love your GIFs..

      Glad you enjoyed my spazzing post, oozzeee. I wrote mostly so I can grin like a loony years later. 😉

      Making gif is my new hobby. Weeee ~~

        Have you watched 116? Try to catch Family Outing ep. 30-31 with Song Chang-eui just before you watch it, it’ll remind you how he is. Its referenced in the RM episode.

        • 10 thoughts on “Running Man Episode 115: Muddy Love Game

          Not yet. Will be downloading it tonight! I did watch all of Family Outing but I don’t remember much about Chang Eui. Was he competitive?… Only fierce ones like Cha Seung Won made a lasting impression. heh.
