Running Man is one of the most iconic Korean variety shows of all time, airing on SBS since July 2010 with over 700 episodes. The show features a permanent cast of comedians, actors, and entertainers who compete in missions, games, and races — often at landmark locations around South Korea and internationally. Running Man is widely considered one of the shows that helped spread Korean entertainment (Hallyu) across Asia and the world.
The show's format combines physical comedy, strategic games, team challenges, and celebrity guest appearances into episodes that are simultaneously hilarious, exciting, and surprisingly emotional. The original cast — including Yoo Jae-suk (Korea's "Nation's MC"), Ji Suk-jin, Kim Jong-kook, HaHa, Song Ji-hyo, Lee Kwang-soo, and others — developed on-screen personalities and rivalries that fans have followed for over a decade.
