In the upcoming episode of SBS's 'Running Man' airing on the 27th, EXO's KAI, fresh off his solo album 'Wait On Me', and actress Kim Ah-young, dubbed the 'official crush of Running Man', will be appearing as guests.
KAI, who has been on a roll since his military discharge, has quickly become the talk of the town in the variety show circuit for his entertainment skills, which are a complete 180 from his charismatic stage presence. His return to 'Running Man' after a whopping 11 years has been highly anticipated, especially since he managed to impress Yoo Jae-suk with his vibrant energy right from the start of filming.
Kim Ah-young, making her fourth appearance, is also a welcome face. Known for creating romantic storylines every time she appears, she has once again expressed her desire to be 'Running Man's sweetheart. With the absence of Choi Daniel, with whom she previously sparked some on-screen chemistry, all eyes are on who will be her new romantic interest this time around.
This episode features a couple's race perfectly suited for 'flirtaholic' Kim Ah-young and 'professional immerser' KAI. However, as the filming day coincided with 'Black Day', a day for singles, the couples faced challenges while singles received all sorts of benefits, leading to a series of unexpected twists.
Who will emerge from the 'couple's hell' to enjoy the 'solo paradise'? The 'Good Day to Be Solo' race will reveal all on 'Running Man', airing this Sunday at 6:10 PM.
