Who is the best runner on SBS’s “Running Man”?

Who is the fastest runner on the variety show, SBS’s “Running Man”?

VJs of the show, or the cameramen who run around each complex with the cast members, were recently asked to give their opinions on who they thought was the best runner on the show.


To begin, the VJs expressed their amazement at every member’s stamina and endurance. Despite fulfilling a whole day’s worth of schedules earlier in the day, the cast crew still reserve enough energy to sprint around large venues and record for the show all night long.

Three nominees were chosen by these VJs for #1 best runner: “Yooruce Willis” Yoo Jae Suk, “manhunter” Kim Jong Kook, and marathon lover, Song Ji Hyo.

The runner who was given the most number of votes was indeed, none other than the show’s own “Sparta Kook”, Kim Jong Kook. Not only did the singer receive acknowledgement for his running, but also for his understanding of the show’s concept.

Kim Joo Hyung PD stated, “Not only can he run well, but his senses are excellent. He finds a nice hiding place and keeps hidden, until he sprints off in an instant to catch his opponent. It’s seriously frightening. He’s like an ambushing lion that pins down his prey.”

Kim Jong Kook’s manager revealed the singer’s secret to his great stamina, as he said, “He doesn’t separately practice running, but he’s always been fond of exercising, and exercises 5-6 times a week, and he stops himself from smoking by running.”
