Everyone, get ready for this week's episode, which involves a great deal of Monday Couple and Bigbang feels! This episode just brings out the fangirl in me. Let's start!
The Running Men made their entrance looking all classy and prince-like with their formal wear. Yoo Jae Suk opted for a more classic "prince" look, and Haha teases him that he's copying Lady Gaga's style.
Bigbang's Daesung, G-dragon, and Seungri enters the scene with G-dragon's new song 'Crooked' as background music. I so love it! The three look all dashing in their outfits.
The teams are then announced, with Jae Suk-GD-Gary, Kwang Soo-Daesung-Jong Kook, and Haha-Seungri-Suk Jin. Haha comments that Kwang Soo should not be overshadowed by Daesung in the "pabo/fool" category and thus his face on the above screenshot.
Princess "gold" Ji Hyo enters the scene on her special and super pretty carriage with Dong Wan FD as her butler.
With Gary's flashy suit and Ji Hyo's elegant white dress, the two look like a couple who's about to get married.
Meanwhile, the three team's goal is to please Princess Ji Hyo and play a game with her at the end. The first game is for deciding who goes with Princess Ji Hyo in a nice car to get to the next location. The three teams should dance in order to please Ji Hyo.
GD team danced to Bigbang's Fantastic Baby and the three did the 'wave dance' beside Ji Hyo, which irritated Ji Hyo because of Gary and Jae Suk's weight on her shoulder.
Seungri team decided to have a choreographed dance but failed to do so because they're so unsynchronized (especially Ji Suk Jin).
Daesung's finally back in K-variety! He complained about their team being the third place because they're the weakest among them. I don't agree though, because the commander/Mr. capable and Kwang Soo are strong in physical games. Haha!
They danced to Daesung's "Look at me, Gwi-soon," which was popular during Daesung's Family Outing days. I also like that song and dance because it's really catchy and easy to dance. With that, Princess Ji Hyo declared that Daesung team is currently in first place.
GD team, of course, wouldn't just let them get the spotlight and danced to "Look at me, Gwi-soon" as well, but in a classy way.
I found out from a friend that Gary kissed Ji Hyo in this episode just before watching the episode but I wasn't expecting it to happen that fast, in the early scenes of the episode, and that's why I was still shocked about what happened. (Oh, my Monday Couple heart)
Gary's kiss made the other teams frantic and also tried to kiss Ji Hyo in an attempt to get her heart. Kwang Soo and Seungri were the ones who attempted to kiss her but failed because they all (especially Gary) physically restrained them from trying. Haha!
Kang Gary's kiss did the trick and so GD team gets to ride the nice car.
These three promised to do their best to win first place again so that they could continue to serve Princess Ji Hyo or rather, ride the nice car with normal air conditioning.
Princess Ji Hyo enters the paddy field, and a red carpet is also present.
The teams try to woo her by calling her with 'inappropriate' affectionate nicknames and singing to her.
The first mission is to get three flags, which is lined up far in front of the teams, with increasing distances. However, they (the teams) will be tied on an elastic rope/bungee cord, which in turn increases the difficulty of getting the flags. The screenshot above shows Jong Kook struggling to get the flag, and the three "weak ones" being pulled by the ropes behind them.
The mud plus the exhausting pull of the rope just equals to misfortune for the teams. Look at all of them struggling just to get up properly. Their misfortune however satisfies us and makes us laugh while pitying them. Am I right? Haha!
Daesung team wins the first mission by winning two rounds. Notice them looking so tired while quite satisfied that they won. Poor them.
GD team also almost won the game, and it's much more tiring for them because they didn't win while they put on almost the same effort as Daesung team.
Haha asked Ji Hyo if she's the one who came up with the game because it seems like the game was created to punish them. This comment made Ji Hyo angry at Haha while picking cards.
When Ji Hyo was giving out wet tissues, Jae Suk went to get one from her with this unrecognizable face of his, all covered in mud. He looks so pitiful.
The first place team gets to pick a card from a "high" deck while the second place gets from a "middle deck and the last place gets from a "low" deck. These cards that they will collect by playing games will then be used in the final mission, which is a game with Princess Ji Hyo.
Daesung team rides the nice car with Ji Hyo because of their win in the first mission. Daesung, in the above screenshot, claims that he's the best when it comes to giving "service" among the idols. He means that he's the best at giving compliments to other people. He actually complimented Ji Hyo by saying, "How fortunate this camera is, to be the one that films the princess." It brought laughter in the car and Kwang Soo commented that he can never do those sort of things.
Jae Suk teased GD because he kept on smiling and laughing 'ironically' because he could not believe the things that just happened in the paddy field.
GD team drove the old car with no air conditioning, and that's why their windows are open. Because of that, their toll ticket flew away and they all laughed in disbelief of their misfortune.
Gary, feeling more confident than ever, attempted to kiss Ji Hyo again. His attempts caused others to comment that Ji Hyo will only be cool with it on that day, and Ji Hyo agreed.
The next mission is to guess what Ji Hyo wants. The first thing that they should come up with was the food that Ji Hyo wants to eat in that rest stop that they're in. A variety of food came to Ji Hyo because of that.
Grilled potatoes brought by Daesung team.
Naengmyun (cold noodles) by GD and Seungri team.
GD team received a clue from Ji Hyo, which is 'red.'
GD team then brought tteokbokki, which was also wrong.
We see Daesung team with patbingsu (and Jong Kook eating it)
Finally, Daesung team brought Jjam Ja, which is half dish of Jjampong and half of Jjajangmyeon.
The right answer, however, is Jjampong!
Next is which among these dogs does Princess Ji Hyo like?
Gary reasons out that Ji Hyo must like the bulldog because it's ugly but cute.. (like him, perhaps? hahaha!)
They each brought a dog with different breeds. They're all so cute!
Princess Ji Hyo's choice was a bulldog, which was brought by Jong Kook. JK mentioned that the reason for liking Gary is because Ji Hyo indeed likes ugly people or animals.
With two wins (one unaired) in this second mission, GD wins the round and gets a high card.
This next mission is sort of a relay, where the whole team has to jump rope 30 times (distributed within the team) and run on the floating mats and then shoot the rose on Ji Hyo's basket. After just one try, GD team could have won the game already but the teams protested that GD's jump wasn't counted since he did it 'wrong.'
GD team tried it again one more time, but the other teams interfered with their game and pulled the mats away from Ji Hyo so that they wouldn't be able to shoot the rose properly.
Kwang Soo rolled the mat to distract Haha from getting the rose to Ji Hyo's basket.
GD's triple misfortune. He fell butt-first two times after trying to jump rope and then he hit his face with his own hands while trying to fix the jump rope.
The interference never ends. GD team could have won already if not for the distractions of the other teams.
Eventually, the mastermind of the disturbances (Seungri team) won the game.
Daesung team is the best when it comes to acting. They got the lowest card (1) and still, they celebrated as if they got a better card. Hilarious.
Each teams have three cards while Ji Hyo has four high cards.
The final mission is to exchange cards in three rounds. A team gets a card from Ji Hyo (starting with Seungri team) and then Ji Hyo will get a card from the team. Ji Hyo will do that to each team in three rounds. By the end of the rounds, Ji Hyo got rid of one of her four cards to be fair to the other teams. The one who gets the highest number (either Ji Hyo herself or one of the teams) will win.
Daesung team does it again. They eventually got rid of their (1) card but by Jong Kook picking a card from Ji Hyo, they got it back, so they acted all happy about it again which was so funny.
Ji Hyo won the game with her cards amounting to 38 while the highest among the teams is GD team (25).
Princess "gold" Ji Hyo, who won so many golds in Running Man already, again wins this time around. She's "gold" Ji Hyo indeed!
Next week's guests for the Chuseok episode are Yoo Ah In (my love hihi) and Kim Hae Suk, both starring in an upcoming film called Tough As Iron (Ggang Chul Yi). I can't wait to see Yoo Ah In on Running Man! HNGGGG
