As the ‘Best Gangster’ of ‘Running Man’ was decided, the viewer ratings also soared.

‘Running Man’, which aired on the 29th, recorded a target audience rating of 2.3% for the ‘2049 audience’, which is an increase from last week and ranked first among entertainment programs in the same time slot.The highest viewership rating per minute also rose to 4.6%.(Based on Nielsen Korea’s metropolitan area and households)

On this day’s broadcast, ‘Chungju Ji C’ Ji Suk-jin X Ji Ye-eun kept their promise with the production crew and members by giving them a coffee truck.However, during this process, Ji Suk-jin’s excessively photoshopped photos became a topic of conversation, and Yoo Jae-suk pointed out, “It’s disgusting.Is Ye-eun doing a younger sibling concept?” Ji Suk-jin added, “Even I think it’s excessive,” making everyone laugh.



The broadcast that day was decorated with a ‘Miracle Breakfast’ race, and they had to repeat citizen interviews and breakfast endlessly until they completed a line on a bingo board with breakfast menus written on it.The first mission was ‘Water Balloon Safety Delivery’, which allowed them to change one menu on the bingo board.The members had to relay water balloons while wearing protective gloves, and after many twists and turns, they added a ‘sandwich’ menu.

The members who started their first breakfast with bean sprout soup all enjoyed their ‘real first meal’.’Eat queen’ Ji Ye-eun showed off her unique ‘eating show’ by sprinkling seaweed powder on her food.After that, the members who went to the breakfast buffet had pork belly for their third breakfast.While everyone was having a hard time with the continuous eating, only the four members who lost the mission got to eat pork belly, and here again Ji Ye-eun’s performance shone.

Despite the production team’s pressure for a ‘time attack’, Ji Ye Eun did not put down her spoon and said, “Doenjang jjigae is essential with samgyeopsal,” and added, “There’s even tteokbokki, so you should eat it out of courtesy,” making everyone burst into laughter.Song Ji Hyo, who was with her, stuck out her tongue and said, “I can’t beat her.” Ji Ye Eun did not stop eating even after eating a sandwich for the fourth meal and a sundae soup for the fifth, and Kim Jong Kook praised her, saying, “She’s like Jun Ji Hyun when it comes to eating.”

However, despite Ji Ye-eun’s efforts, she was unable to finish her meal within the time limit and ended the race in failure.As a result, Yoo Jae-suk and Haha were given the penalty of having to prepare Sonchu’s breakfast for the next week’s recording.
