This week’s episode of SBS’s Running Man was similar to SBS’s X-Man (2003-2007) where everyone looked for the “spy” who is completing secret missions. In this case, the cast had to find the fake freshman, henceforth returnee, hiding among the incoming students (class of 2019). Members had to correctly vote who is the returning student at the end of each round to win and avoid punishment.
Cast consisted of all 8 regular members with guests Hong Jin Young, Han Da Gam and Keum Sae Rok.

First round: Play various ‘OT’ games
Highlights from the first round included how the cast played the orange game, orange fart game and the Kpop game.
Orange game: Every time the “orange” was passed along, the player had to act like the orange had gotten bigger.
Orange Fart game: Suggested by Hong Jin Young, the rules are similar to the 007 game where people next to the “farting” person needs to say “oh it smells.” Whoever laughs during the game loses.
Kpop game: Everyone had to sing a song that included a keyword.
Interestingly when it was Kim Jong Kook’s turn, no one knew which song he was singing. Turned out it was his own song from 2006.

End of Round 1: Returnee failed to complete the secret mission. Everyone was told the hint about the identity of the returnee, “actions and words revealing (returnee’s) age were used a lot.”
Second round: Jokgu
Members were divided into teams to determine the lunch menu. 1st place was awarded pork belly bbq for lunch. 2nd place got ramen and 3rd place received only rice and seaweed.
The secret mission for the returnee was shared at the beginning of this round, to avoid winning first place.
End of Round 2: Returnee succeeded in completing the secret mission.
Third round: Couple hoodie game
Cast was told they have to avoid being a couple with suspected returnee. Couples competed to see the words on the back of their opponent that needs to be relayed to their blindfolded partner.
Hilarious scene was when Lee Kwang Soo and Yoo Jae Suk competed. It was commented to be giraffe vs. hopper, with a reference made to Hyun Bin and Ha Ji Won’s drama scene in ‘Secret Garden’.

As usual when Kim Jong Kook played a round with Lee Kwang Soo, the lion beat the giraffe to no one’s surprise. Lee Kwang Soo was being dragged along by Kim Jong Kook so Yoo Jae Suk later called out Lee Kwang Soo’s word to end the poor giraffe’s misery.
End of Round 3: Returnee succeeded the secret mission of saying an old popular phrase.
Winner of this week’s episode
Returnee: The returning student among the incoming students was none other than… Haha!
Loser: 3 members excluding Haha had to get punished.

Kim Jong Kook’s choice between Song Ji Hyo and Hong Jin Young was…..Song Ji Hyo! During the third round, Kim Jong Kook asked Song Ji Hyo to be a couple with him by saying “honey.” Hong Jin Young watched the two members become a couple while commenting “they look good together” possibly marking the end of Hong Jin Young’s love line with Kim Jong Kook.
