When it was announced that Running Man, the ultimate in inventive variety games, would be trying something new yet again – a masterpiece of their most famous game, the name tag elimination, involving a total of 200 players – everyone scoffed & said it would be a horrible catastrophic mess.

However, I think they managed khổng lồ pull it off. Somehow, that old creative Running Man spirit has shown through và over two episodes, the 100 vs 100 match gave excitement, anticipation, intrigue & most importantly of all, laughter. It was only possible because of the reputation the show now holds, & the total experience of all the members.

The premise of the great 100 vs 100 match — mix in a school gym decorated lượt thích an insane asylum — is lớn have the Running Man members điện thoại tư vấn in 93 additional friends to 3d their team of 100. Though the members have no idea why they’re there và what today’s plan is, they get seven hours lớn try khổng lồ round up that many people. But, they are given the caveat that each person has to be searchable online. That might be difficult enough, but it’s the fear of their opponents, the strongest athletes in the country, that really makes this a challenge.

The athletes are divided into five teams: first, the vị trí cao nhất martial arts director Jung Doo-hong và his top kích hoạt actors! Then the Korean pro-wrestling team, led by No Ji-sim, who put on a terrifying show of strength in front of the Running Man members! Judo Olympic Gold medalist Lee Won-hee follows with his team of Judo Heroes! Next is Kim Ki-tae & his team of ssiireum wrestlers (traditional Korean style of wrestling), followed finally by the awesome K-Tigers taekwondo team, led by Tae-mi!

My first thought here was, could the Running Man PDs possibly have cleared a bunch of celebrities schedules ahead of time? They’d been advertising some big names, lượt thích Got7, but we see that the busier celebrities didn’t stay for the whole day of filming.

Though the PDs might have secretly cleared a few schedules, it seems they just got lucky with most of the big-name celebrities. Actor Lim Hyung-jun is one who they either pre-cleared or he just had nothing to do all day because he’s the first guest khổng lồ arrive và he stays until the bitter over — a topic of continuous joking.

As the guests start trickling in, và by trickling I mean entering in spectacular Running Man fashion with air cannons framing the doorway, I am struck by two things. 1) That Ha
Ha knows everyone from everywhere & 2) that this might be the most diverse group of people I’ve ever seen on Korean television.

Right off the bat, the members start collecting people from all corners of Seoul: Ha
Ha invites the “celebrities’ favorite photographer” Oh Joong-seok; Gary succeeds in getting both Hwang Choong-jae, 1978 Asian games boxing gold medalist, & the reverently great boxer Chang Jung-koo. Spirits start to lớn lift as they greet the majestic elders.

Along with actors Kim Ki-bang, Heo Tae-hee và Lee Jung, Young Jun from Brown Eyed Soul, DJ Pumkin of AOMG, Australian-born comedian Sam Hammington, sports commentator Hyun Joo-yup, và Uee (of After School), they manage khổng lồ get up to đôi mươi team members. That means it’s time for a battle! If the members win this trò chơi of ‘head squash’ against the terrifying athletes, then they’ll reduce the other team’s numbers by 10.

After an overly dramatic & rather silly show-down between the small yet intense Chang Jung-koo and the overly large và adorable wrestling team leader No Ji-sim, the athlete team takes the first win! They won’t be losing any team members to lớn Running Man yet.

With the arrival of a mass of new guests, the first episode wraps up in an unfortunately awkward fashion. The show cuts from introductions khổng lồ the next entrance of the athlete team for the 40 vs 40 mission, & it’s obvious we missed something because there’s a new group of guests suddenly standing on the side. Yet, Running Man doesn’t give any explanations và they move to a preview of the 40 vs. 40 mission và the final mission for the next episode. It’s horribly clear that everything was moving too quickly and there was no easy place to cut the footage in between episodes.

Part 2 starts off with the introductions of those newcomers we barely saw at the kết thúc of the previous episode along with new faces like Got7, actor Kim Min-kyo, & a few comedians including legend Lee Sung-mi.

One thing that the Running Man staff does a really wonderful job with for these two episodes is making sure every single person who came on the show is credited. Yoo Jae-suk personally introduces each và every one of them, & in the second episode they try khổng lồ show as many of their faces as they can in the first few minutes, with their names written on the screen as well.

The second episode starts khổng lồ feel lượt thích a festival, as the new arrivals vì more và more lớn introduce themselves. Comedienne Park Na-rae shows off her “krumping dance,” but not before she has to lớn change into shorts in front of 50 men & the cameras — she nonchalantly pulls them on under her skirt locker-room style while the back row of guests crane their necks lớn see.
Got7’s Jackson has an awkward moment when he tries to lớn hold a conversation in Chinese with Ji Suk-jin’s comedian friend Byun Seung-yoon. He said he’d been taking lessons và Jackson, as a Hong Konger, steps forward to chạy thử him. But apparently when Byun Seung-yoon speaks, he’s just saying gibberish.
Jackson starts off very encouraging, “If you can’t vày it, don’t force yourself,” but it just goes from bad khổng lồ worse when, after trying three times khổng lồ start a conversation, Jackson bursts out, “He’s just copying me!” Everyone is laughing hysterically at the gibberish Chinese, but Jackson is clearly not amused, and it was really the worst kind of racist joke at his expense. Luckily, karma comes back around when Byun Seung-yoon tries khổng lồ rap in his gibberish Chinese & suddenly, “oh!” Jackson jumps up, “That was swearing!” và everyone’s laughing again.
Next follows one of my favorite moments, in which Got7 have a tumbling battle with the comedian twins from Gag Concert, Lee Sang-ho & Lee Sang-min. This is perfect comedy, và so refreshing after the horrible language joke from before.
We finally get khổng lồ see the 40 vs 40 & 60 vs 60 mission games. The first one is Paper Curling (throwing rolls of nhà vệ sinh paper and trying to hit a designated line on the floor) which is a trò chơi clearly built for the Running Man members. The athletes have too much strength and often over up over shooting. No Ji-sim is adorable yet again: “I’m strong so it’ll fly all the way over there,” he whines.
The 60 vs 60 game is dodge ball! It starts off vicious as the athletes manage to get two or three people out with one throw. Luckily, the Running Man team can hold their own. The kích hoạt director, Jung Doo-hong, has a spectacular running jump throw which takes people out with great accuracy. But the greatest play is when actor Im Joo-hwan saves Uee by catching the ball that hit her. He tries lớn imitate that great majestic running jump shot, but ends up overshooting and landing smack in the middle of the other team.
Amazingly, the athletes have all dodged the ball he threw and it rolls to the edge of the court as Joo-hwan is frantically back-pedalling. Before any of the athletes can attack, fellow actor Lim Hyung-jun dramatically dives in from the edge, sacrificing himself lớn kick the ball out and save Joo-hwan. A fantastic scene of teamwork, friendship, over-acting & editing. Và finally, Running Man wins the dodgeball game!

A performance by new girl group GFriend perks every one up và of course all the male guests are overjoyed. Gfriend is surrounded by fans as soon as they enter the room and, though they put on smiles to perform perfectly, they look a bit shocked and nervous after they finish dancing. The other idols mostly hang back & chat amongst themselves while GFriend performs, và it’s clearly the male actors và comedians who are the most excited, even going so far as khổng lồ attempt lớn rush the girls on stage. A bit off-putting khổng lồ say the least.

Finally, the last influx of guests arrives, & it’s quite obviously the busiest friends. Jinu, of Jinusean, is part of Ha
Ha’s cycling team. Muzie arrives with Roy Kim (who we now know was probably busy preparing for his comeback). The entirety of Seventeen was apparently called in by Uee, and N.Flying was invited by Ji Suk-jin.

Three new actors from Kwang-soo’s company, King Kong Entertainment, introduce themselves briefly & the last guest lớn stumble in is the rising star of idol-variety, Kwang-hee. It’s now been seven hours since the Running Man members started calling friends, & Lim Hyung-jun, the first one to lớn arrive, asks again whether they’re going to lớn get paid by the hour.

The Running Man team succeeds in getting 91 friends khổng lồ join them over the day, but unfortunately some of them had khổng lồ sneak out early; so they only have 85 friends to địa chỉ cửa hàng to the seven cast members, making 92 all up for Team Running Man. Luckily, they’ve also won two games already and have cut 40 people from the athletes team. Whether that will actually make a difference is debatable. It’s finally Name Tag Elimination time!

It’s wonderfully exciting to lớn see so many different people playing a game I’ve already watched hundreds of times. They each have a different style (Lee Sung-mi plays the stealthy assassin role perfectly) and are able lớn show it because the trò chơi is such madness with so many bodies. They split the trò chơi into three rounds, with each team winning a round necessitating round 3 to lớn be a tiebreaker.

It’s the athlete team that has the unbreakable strategy, linking hands & catching the friends in their terrifying human net, taking down 6 or 7 all at once.The Seventeen boys at least show off their speed: Seung-kwan and Do-kyeom wriggle out of the net & sprint across the room. The last one left, Seung-kwan, has a great moment cutely taunting the athletes with dance moves và his teammates start chanting “1v1, 1v1!” He’d be fine if his opponent weren’t Judo star Lee Won-hee, and even then he manages to lớn wiggle away once before, with a firm grab of his shirt, he’s out.

While I would have liked khổng lồ see the Running Man team of ruffians overtake the athletes in the end, both teams put up a very good fight. The suspense and hilarity of both episodes was well worth the almost four hours of airing time. I also very much appreciated both the diversity, & therefore interesting nature of the invited friends, và how the show credited each and every one of them, as I mentioned before.

Overall, Running Man pulled off the insanity that the 100 v. 100 battle could have been; và with Yoo Jae-suk displaying his full MCing prowess, did so with (mostly) grace & poise. & the guests were wonderful as well: I would love to see many of them back on Running Man in the future.
