Running Man: Episode 199

by gummimochi

*

Park Ji-sung. Need I say more? Okay, I’ll say more. Our beloved captain is baông chồng for the third year running lớn train our cast lớn be in tip-top shape for the Asian Dream Cup, though really, this rigorous bootcamp seems khổng lồ be more work for hyên than anyone else. Then soccer sensation meets soccer legend, who provides even more tips for the amateurs, all topped by a friendly scrimmage. Will it all be enough lớn prepare for what’s waiting for them in Indonesia?

EPISODE 199. Broadcast on June 8, 2014.

*

For this 2014 World Cup Special, we begin covering the life và times of the man with two hearts, from his celebratory goal in the 2002 World Cup lớn his years playing for Manchester United, all leading up to lớn his announced retirement made this past May.

Ha, the show adds the shameless plug that the soccer sensation was an RM guest in both 2012 AND 2013. Suk-jin: “Can you put that in?” Caption: “Why? Isn’t it true? ^^”

This is all a fancy intro for the guest who needs no further introduction, but we’re going to lớn give sầu our beloved captain one, anyway: Welcome bachồng Park Ji-sung! He looks embarrassed (& maybe a little uncomfortable) in that suit, but he immediately gets smothered in hugs regardless. Awwwww.

*

The cast wastes no time khổng lồ point out Ji-sung’s ring, to which Suk-jin asks if it’s đá quí. Remember when they teased Ji-sung about his relationship with SBS announcer Kim Min-ji last year? Yep, the lovebirds are gettin’ married in July. Congrats!

Ji-sung’s dry wit is still very much alive as he introduces himself as a semi-fixed guest. Gary chimes in that he wants khổng lồ become Ji-sung’s knee, and Ji-sung quips baông chồng, “I don’t want that.”

Just lượt thích the past two years, the Running Man cast have sầu the opportunity to participate in this year’s Asian Dream Cup in Indonesia. Both matches still ingrained in his memory, Ji-sung jokes, “Can we not bởi vì that?”

*
*

He certainly has good reason for the one-liner, since both of those showings were embarrassing (but also hilarious). Even though the đoạn phim clips serves as a reminder for us, the cast chooses lớn brag about their sort-of achievements: Kwang-soo: “Can any of you vì chưng a heading?” Jae-suk: “Has anyone kicked a penalty kiông chồng before?!”

As always, the cast must go through boot camp prior khổng lồ heading overseas. This time, the cast và Ji-sung will have sầu separate missions; the cast’s success or failure affects the difficulty level of Ji-sung’s tasks. Furthermore, Ji-sung must complete his missions in order to lớn obtain chance coupons, which will come in handy for their final mission.

As an extra incentive, should the cast succeed in the final mission, they’ll be given another mysterious advantage in Indonesia. That prompts Jae-suk lớn wonder: “We won’t be using superpowers in the match, will we?” Winged players và movable goalposts? HA, now that’s a game I’d watch again.

*

Anyhow, the mention of an advantage gets everyone talking, and Jong-kook wonders if the show will be bringing in more soccer stars to coach them like last year (Evra và Koo Ja-cheol).

They wonder if it’s possible to lớn invite Cha Bum-kun (inarguably the greatest Korean soccer player in history; also father to lớn professional soccer player Cha Du-ri) khổng lồ the show. Given that the man’s an SBS sports commentator now, I’d say there’s a good chance. Jong-kook: “I don’t know his number, but I know his wife’s.”

So then Jong-kook calls her up right then & there, and she hands it off khổng lồ her husband, Cha Bum-kun. It’s dễ thương how flustered Ji-sung gets while talking to lớn the legendary former athlete on the phone, stammering his request that Cha coach the cast.

*

Ji-sung: “If it isn’t you, there’s no one else who can fix this issue.” As in, bring up the cast’s soccer skills lớn somewhat acceptable. You can sense Cha’s warm personality just by his laughter—will he really come?

We cut away khổng lồ see Cha Bum-kun himself at a photoshoot with his fellow commentator Park Moon-sung (the footage taken from the documentary camera crew). It cracks me up how Park and announcer Bae Sung-jae try lớn eavesdrop on the conversation, và it’s Bae who eventually persuades him inlớn agreeing that he’ll drop by afterward.

*
*
.

On the bus, Ji-sung says he won’t mind if his future kids pursue soccer whereas Jae-suk is hesitant on whether his son should become an MC like himself. Adding to the hilarity, Haha asks what Suk-jin thinks of his son becoming the next Ddakji King. Suk-jin: “It has to .”

At the SBS building, the cast changes inkhổng lồ spandex suits for their first mission testing their telepathy. Here, they must complete their mission while Ji-sung performs a separate task; however, should Ji-sung mess up, it’s considered a failure. Yikes, no pressure.

Moreover, they’ve sầu got up to five chances to lớn succeed—if they don’t, Ji-sung’s mission will be harder. I love how the White suits blover inlớn the White walls, so when Kwang-soo asks if they can only see his face, the camera turns up the brightness accordingly. Ha.

*

The mission: Ji-sung must kick a hackeysaông chồng (without letting it drop!) until the cast members return to lớn the lobby all wearing different color clothing. Although Ji-sung’s claims that he isn’t adept at hackysaông xã, he seems to be doing just fine at the start.

That is, until Kwang-soo swings by và his loud praises breaks Ji-sung’s focus. Aông xã, worry about your own mission, Kwang-soo! To make matters worse, Suk-jin walks in too, và their distractions result in Ji-sung using up his only two chances lớn fumble.

Neither Easy Brother knows how khổng lồ take a hint lớn just leave sầu Ji-sung alone. Suk-jin shouts at the others to lớn haul ass already… and then Ji-sung fumbles once more và collapses to the ground. Aw, after all that work.

*
*

By the time everyone else gets bachồng, Gary’s orange unisize takes the cake by far. The cast jokingly places blame upon Ji-sung with thickheaded remarks (“Let’s focus next time, okay?”), which agitates hlặng enough to lớn fire back: “I’m the one who chooses who makes the team, okay?!”

So it’s bachồng to lớn square one for their next chance, where the cast must find different items that start out with the same characters (e.g. if the letter is “s”: sunglasses, sandals, etc.) Poor Ji-sung has khổng lồ jump rope until the others get bachồng. Dang, the staff is really going lớn kiểm tra that “two hearts” nickname of his.

Ji-sung says he hasn’t jumped rope since middle school, but his prep makes hyên ổn look pretty legit. Ji-hyo is first to lớn return with a hat, a choice that forces the others khổng lồ double baông xã. She cheers him on while the others think of different guesses for words with “m-j”: “Beer !” “Cup !”

*
*

… But then Ji-sung trips up. Oh no! Kwang-soo brought another person with hyên & claims, “Athlete’s foot ! It’s an infection!” Apparently that was what Kwang-soo was looking for, as evidenced by the đoạn Clip footage. Empty-handed, Gary takes Ji-hyo: “Mung Ji!” Hahaha.

Next, the cast is tasked khổng lồ bring someone from all different age groups while Ji-sung is told to lớn trap a soccer ball in the meantime. Sure it’s finally a sport he knows inside và out, but that doesn’t make it any easier, và he tells the staff khổng lồ shush so he can focus.

It’s actually kind of remarkable how Ji-sung tunes everyone out as the members return loudly. Jae-suk calls out lớn someone, & wait a minute—that’s Baek Ji-young! He manages to lớn flag her down lớn represent the thirties. When Haha asks if she hasn’t hit her forties yet, she shoots hyên ổn a death glare.

*
*

Desperate, Kwang-soo appeals lớn the camera PD: “You’re the oldest one here!” Ha, not the best way lớn get on his good side. Ji-sung has been at it for eight minutes now, and just as Kwang-soo brings the last person, the soccer ball flies inlớn the air. Eeeek!

… & Ji-sung totally saves it. Daebak. Problem is, the man Kwang-soo brought isn’t in his fifties, but his sixties. Uh oh. It’s almost as if you can see the rage on Ji-sung’s face.

As Kwang-soo runs around the building, Ji-sung hits the ten-minute mark: “I can’t see the ball because of the sweat in my eyes!” The suspense builds as Kwang-soo brings another man, & this time, they make it. Phew!

*

That means Ji-sung’s mission is easier, but Ji-sung gapes at being told khổng lồ kichồng a soccer ball into lớn a oto window: “You điện thoại tư vấn this easy?” (Apparently the “harder” task was khổng lồ kick the ball through the opposite window. Is that… even feasible?)

This episode is really turning out to be Ji-sung’s hellish bootcamp, & he’s got three chances. He opts khổng lồ kick the ball inlớn the front window. And that ball goes in on the first try. Niiiicccceee.

The bus ride into lớn the country puts the cast on edge—surely they’re not headed for a field or patty again? Oh, but it is, as they’re greeted by a makeshift soccer field, a crane, and cardboard cutouts of famous soccer players.

*
*

Here the cast must perkhung a relay of tasks within 90 seconds using a soccer ball as their baton. The tasks themselves get more ridiculous as it goes on (at one point, “a scarecrow” must go horizontal to lớn vertical to lớn pour water into lớn a cup) and ultimately ends with one person hanging from the goalpost & catching the ball between their legs. Phew!

Scaredy-mèo Jae-suk is lifted into the air and things look good at the start as Suk-jin receives the water balloon easily. They hit their first snag when Suk-jin hesitates and then Kwang-soo ends up with more water on his face than in the cup.

No matter how hard he tries, there’s no way for him not to lớn over up with damp hair. No one else wants the job either, so they proceed as usual. This time it’s Ji-hyo in the air, và Jong-kook is determined to lớn impress with his dribbling skills.

*
*

We all know that Jong-kook’s coordination isn’t something to lớn boast about but he gets through. Kwang-soo resolves to lớn spit out the water that ends up in his mouth, và then hits Jae-suk with that same glass. Now all they need lớn vì chưng is have Haha catch the ball Ji-sung will kick, but it falls instead, và they run out of time.

Then we skip ahead to the cast’s fifth và final chance. Now Jong-kook charges through the cutouts for the sake of tốc độ, and though Kwang-soo’s task eats up some time, they get khổng lồ Ji-sung’s kiông xã. Up the ball goes và Haha catches it. Huzzah!

The question is whether they were under 90 seconds. With 2:24, that doesn’t cut it. Disappointed, Haha murmurs that the staff could fudge the results.

*

That puts the pressure baông xã on Ji-sung, who has khổng lồ choose the one chance coupon hidden in one of five trays. If he chooses wrong of course, a health drink awaits hyên. Jong-kook: “I’ll drink it.” Haha: “Seeing as the staff is bringing out candy, it must be really bitter.”

Even with the cast’s suggestions, it’s up khổng lồ Ji-sung to lớn decide. Holy crap, he picks it!

I love how as Jae-suk remarks that there’s plenty of other better-tasting health drinks out there, Jong-kook just downs the bitter tea. I suppose it wouldn’t have been a terrible thing if Ji-sung had khổng lồ drink it, seeing as he seems to lớn lượt thích it anyway.

*

The third mission will hone the cast’s goal-scoring skills, và someone special has arrived to coach them through it: Cha Bum-kun. His history-making reputation precedes hlặng, & Gary gawks at the limo: “Does he usually take this?” (He doesn’t.)

Cha greets Ji-sung warmly & then laughs when the cast tells him that he has to lớn teach them a few things while he’s here. Cha (pointing to Ji-sung): “But you have sầu a star right here!”

Cha gives practical tips to lớn the cast, a moment they use lớn make a jab at their captain: “Ji-sung never taught us that! He just wants to bởi vì well on his own.” Ji-sung: “They don’t get any better even if I do it for them!”

*

Then Cha explains step-by-step as Ji-sung shows off a practice kiông xã. Immediately, the cast follows suit, khổng lồ which Cha keeps instructing against their form: “Don’t lift your foot!”

Ji-hyo is praised for her clean kiông chồng, but when Haha complains that Jae-suk is distracting hyên ổn, Cha tells him that there lots of distractions out on the field, so he has to ignore them. At that, Jae-suk proceeds khổng lồ bug hyên some more. Cha tells Haha that he has khổng lồ shoot even if people spit, & so the others spit AT hlặng. Ew.

Although Kwang-soo has all the steps memorized by heart, his execution looks hilariously stiff. After another tip lớn let his arm guide the ball’s direction, Kwang-soo gives a solid kick. Good for him! Aw, he & Gary are chosen as the best strikers after their quiông xã lesson.

*
*

Time for the mission: Everyone will go through a round of penalty kicks, & batters will try to lớn bat away the balls—they need khổng lồ have at least four goals (out of eight) khổng lồ succeed.

Cha is still there lớn coach them through it (“They won’t be able khổng lồ blochồng it if you kick it properly.”) Jong-kook revs up… và the batter knocks it out. When Jae-suk’s get blocked too, Cha takes it upon himself to lớn complain that the distance is too far & measures it out himself. Lol.

Suk-jin is the first one to kick a goal and Gary follows through with another. Neither Haha or Ji-hyo’s kicks make it past the barrier, but Ji-sung makes up for it with a clean goal. It’s up lớn Kwang-soo khổng lồ make it or break it for the cast with this final penalty kick… and it goes in!

*
*

That means Ji-sung’s mission is (relatively) easier: kicking a ball through a ring of fire. Jo PD: “The harder one was both a smaller ring & higher.” Gee, thanks.

Cha has a go at the mission và notes that it’s been over a decade since he’s actively played. He kicks, the ball shoots into the air, & it hits the ryên. Adorably, Cha gripes: “I’m wearing & the ground is tough!”

Thus he switches khổng lồ his soccer cleats and kicks the ball once more. It hits the upper ryên ổn this time. Cha gives the ball one final kichồng và it soars through the air… & goes through. Wooot!

*
*

Cha gives a few warm words of praise and encouragement about Ji-sung before leaving, and now it’s time for the final mission: a scrimmage between the Running Man cast versus the soccer-playing idols.

We have: Chang-min (2AM); Dong-joon (ZE:A); Doo-joon, Ki-kwang, & Yo-seob(BEAST); Leo (VIXX); Min-hyuk (BTOB); and Baro (B1A4). Aw, did Dong-joon greet Ji-hyo with a hug?

I know that some of these idol boys are part of FC MEN (an all-star subunit consisted of celebrities & play charity matches), so this is some fierce competition. And here to lớn lead them is Seol Ki-hyeon, a fellow 2002 World Cup national team player who scored a memorable goal against Italy. He says today gives him reason to lớn see Ji-sung, whom he hasn’t seen in a while. Aww.

*
*

The match will be split in two fifteen-minute halves, & each “chance coupon” the cast earned equates to lớn five sầu minutes of putting Ji-sung on the field, so fifteen minutes in total. Unfortunately the idol team don’t have sầu an equivalent advantage.

Coach Seol goes inkhổng lồ serious mode as soon as the game begins, which prompts his former teammate Ji-sung lớn tell hyên khổng lồ lighten up. Seol: “I have sầu to lớn get in as many goals in before you go in và play!”

Whoa, I never knew that Baro played soccer, but he and the others have got a few tricks lớn keep the RM cast on their feet. Ki-kwang scores his team’s first goal & Chang-min calls out: “Let’s score 10 goals before Park Ji-sung shows up !”

*
*

Ji-sung looks pretty amused watching his team play while Gary can’t help but be in awe at all the flower boys on the field. You and me both, man. When Ji-sung calls a player change, the other team wonders if the man himself will enter the field… & Gary chimes in: “It’s me.”

Things immediately look better for the RM cast, và now Suk-jin has a chance to shoot… and misses. Aw. Ki-kwang shows a bit of his dribbling skills before sinking another goal, bringing the score to 3:0 in favor of the Idol Team.

With five minutes left for the first half, Ji-sung tags himself in, putting the other team on alert. It’s kinda adorable how the idols get all jumpy (“He’s in! He’s in! I’m scared!”) & are promptly instructed to lớn stiông xã lớn Ji-sung lượt thích a shadow.

*
*

At one point, the ball is passed to Baro, but then next thing he knows, Ji-sung runs past khổng lồ steal the ball away. Baro’s astonishment is priceless.

Ji-sung shoots, but it’s no good as it hits the goalpost. And you know what? Ji-sung steals the ball AGAIN to lớn pass it khổng lồ Gary, who passes to Jong-kook for a clear shot… but he misses. Achồng, so close!

Ji-sung uses every second of playtime he can get, taking on four players at once. I’m sure the idols are just as excited khổng lồ be playing with the soccer star as well as playing against hyên ổn. On the bench, Yo-seob remarks in awe: “ Park Ji-sung run is like watching an ox run.”

*

Ji-sung softly kicks the ball into the air, và this time Gary is there to receive sầu it và sover it inkhổng lồ the goal. The score is 1:3 in favor of the Idol Team at the end of the first half, & Gary jokes: “Can’t you give sầu us two goals?”

The cast tries khổng lồ strategize during halftime, realizing that they need a more aggressive sầu approach. Thinking baông chồng to lớn their quiông chồng lesson with Coach Cha, they skết thúc their apologies: “I don’t think those tips will work against this team.”

Ji-hyo thinks she can latch/bite onto lớn one player, khổng lồ which Suk-jin tells her lớn bite them for real. Lol. Then Ji-sung says you can even kichồng another player just so long as the referee doesn’t see. HA, have you been hiding things from us, Ji-sung? Haha points out: “He’s just never been caught doing it!”

*
*

The cast nearly runs into trouble as soon as the second half begins: Haha kicks at his own team’s goal. Thankfully it doesn’t go in, but the action doesn’t go unnoticed. Hee.

After Idol Team scores another two goals, Ji-sung tags himself inkhổng lồ the game with ten minutes left on the clock. He even takes off his jacket. Nervous, the idols Điện thoại tư vấn out to lớn the staff: “We’ll play hyên ổn with his jacket on!”

Mr. PD tells Ji-sung not khổng lồ scare the young’uns too much, lớn which Ji-sung retorts: “If they’re scared, I suppose they’ll avoid me.” He says with a smile on his face. Damn.

*
*

Ji-sung flies down the field the first chance he gets. His first kichồng strikes the goalpost, to goalkeeper Ki-kwang’s relief. Ki-kwang: “Don’t mess up, guys! It’ll only be harder on me!”

I keep forgetting just how fast Ji-sung is, but when Dong-joon runs down the field, our beloved captain is already there to lớn blochồng hlặng. The man’s only got the ball in mind as he traverses up and down the field like the pro he is.

He even receives a kiông chồng và runs down an open field (Coach Seol cracks an impressed smile), lớn Ki-kwang’s alarm. He shoots and scores a goal, leaving everyone impressed. I have sầu no idea if that tiny kiông chồng that sends the ball to pop over another player’s head is his trademark move sầu, but I know that it impresses me every time.

*

Although Ji-sung scores another goal with that, the final score is 3:5 in favor of the Idol Team. Coach Seol gives some warm words on behalf of himself and his team.

Next week, practice time is over at the Asian Dream Cup, where our cast will be up against formidable competitors in both human & animal form. Indonesia, here they come!
