Tuesday Running Man: Episode 181, Secret Couple.


Running Man's theme this week is "girls" vs boys, but the problem is that between this opposing teams, there is a secret couple!


The two teams meet each other. Boys team: Haha, Gary, Suk JIn, Lee Jong Suk and Jae Suk. Girls team: Ji Hyo, Lee Sae Young, "Jong Sook," Lee Bo Young and "Kwang Ja." These two teams will be going against each other in the games.


However, the secret couple, Ji Hyo and Lee Jong Suk will have to do a mission without anyone of the members knowing. They will have to do a lovey-dovey act with the members present but they must not be caught. If they do get caught, the winning team for the game will receive only a real clue, but if they succeed, the winning team for the game will receive two clues, one real and one fake. The clues pertain to who the "secret couple" is, which they have to guess on the last mission.


Running Man high school's secret couple.

I must admit that these two doing the mission together made me go "aww" because they're just too cute! I'm not betraying my Monday Couple heart though. Maybe it's just because I have a thing for secret lovers...


The girls team lead by the two most manly girls I've ever seen, Kwang Ja and Jong Sook.


Of course, the boys team is lead by Jae Suk, the best dancer in school. Haha! Kidding.


The first mission for the lovers is to link arms while doing the first game.


The first game is to go above that straw platform and they must stay there until the whistle is blown by the staff. There is also a maximum of members that can pass a round. Once a member passes, he or she will not participate anymore. The first team to have all members pass, wins.


In the first round, Lee Sae Young passed, and so these gangster girls are left. They had a strategy to leave Ji Suk Jin alone (and letting the other boys pass) so that they'll easily win, with Kwang Ja and Jong Sook being left against Suk Jin.


Wanko-hyung did all his best to win...


While Suk Jin struggles against the two manly girls, the secret couple finished their secret mission, which is to link arms.


Poor Suk Jin, fighting a bunch of girls who are much stronger than he is.

The girls won this round, while the boys claimed that they just let the girls win because they're gentlemen. The boys went delusional. The girls got two clues, but they don't know which one is a fake clue or a real one.


The next mission for the secret couple is to hold hands (with interlocked fingers).


Gary saw the two staff members who were showing the secret mission to the secret couple holding hands, and so he thought that they were dating!


The next game is called the "Scarecrow Game," where they have to move 4 steps (including a swing on the horizontal bar because they cannot step within the "pond" made across the bar). After moving four steps, they must stay there until everyone is done. The next step is to go back, without ruining the pose of another "scarecrow."


The two did it again stealthily. Whew! They were so cute.

The winner for this game is the boys team, and so they get the real and fake clues.



The next mission for the lovers is the "forehead kiss."


The next game is in a market place. The boys and girls will be partnered up (according to whom they want to be partnered with) and they will buy anything that they want, come back to the mission room and receive the actual mission that they should do with the bought goods from the market.


The secret couple were partnered in the first round, and so they were able to do the mission while buying stuff from the market. 


In the second round, they had different partners.


The mission for the couples is to put the thing they bought between their cheeks for one minute.


For the last round, they change couples once again. The choosing of the couples was so funny because of Kwang Ja and Jong Sook.


The last round's mission is a word relay from the thing that they bought. They only had 30 seconds to do that, and they won. Both teams receive clues.




While buying in the market, these two succeeded their secret mission and even did the mission 3 times just to make sure. They did it at the first round of the game, that's why it was fine for them to be partnered up with different people on the 2nd and 3rd round.


The next game was "Saranghae Game!" This game was also played in Family Outing and it was fun because of the pretty boys who were guests in the show back then, since the girls (Lee Hyo Ri and Park Ye Jin) get to be kissed by them. The rule is simple, they will just be saying "Saranghae" to the one next to them and if they laugh or react, they will be guilty of "falling in love" and so the person will be "punished" of making the his or her two neighbors kiss him or her on the cheek.



When Lee Sae Young whispered "saranghae" to Gary, Gary replied with "me too."


That's why he was punished by the two guests, Sae Young and Bo Young! He then screamed "hurray!"

The girls won this game, and the secret couple didn't get to do their mission because of the lack of space. They were supposed to do a back hug. The girls team then gets the real clue only.



They then went to the final location, where they had to agree on who to guess as the "secret couple" in their groups, based from the clues. They guessed right because Lee Jong Suk was so obvious that he's the guy and that Ji Hyo was suspiciously close to Jong Suk. The secret couple then got bombed with flour on their faces.

I was looking forward to this episode because of the countryside games that they did. I was a little disappointed though because the games were not that highlighted because of the secret couple thing. I wish that they just didn't do the countryside games along with the secret couple so that the games were given more attention to. Well, I just hope that they would do those kinds of game again in future episodes!


The guests for next week's episode are Yeo Jin Goo, Si Wan (ZE:A), and Do Hee (Tiny G). The games were requested by a Running Man fan from Hong Kong. That fan is so lucky! We should be jealous. Haha! I just hope her games would be exciting (it did seem fun from the preview).
