Yang Se-chan was amazed and asked Kim Ah-young, "Are you going to keep your eyes like that all day?" Kim Ah-young, flustered, responded, "Isn't this a situational act?" Yoo Jae-suk expressed concern, saying, "Ah-young, you'll get dry eyes if you keep doing that."

Ha Ha played the role of an old-fashioned person, saying, "How dare you look straight into an elder's eyes?" Kim Ah-young, unfazed, replied, "This is just how I am," eliciting laughter.
Meanwhile, Kim Jong-kook, surprised, asked about the performance of wireless earphones, saying, "Why does it feel like I'm going up to the sky in the middle?" The 'Running Man' members were shocked, asking if he didn't know about noise-canceling. Ha Ha laughed incredulously, saying, "How are you MZ?"

Ha Ha bluntly remarked, "You have a smallpox vaccination scar. How are you MZ?" Song Ji-hyo also chimed in, saying, "You're in a similar place as me," expressing her delight. Ha Ha countered, "MZ has three of these."
Joo Hyun-young brushed it off, saying, "I'm on the edge of MZ," and began introducing her fashion. She explained her balloon-like puffy outfit, asking, "Do you know what a balloon is?" When 1994-born Ji Ye-eun tried to assert dominance over 1996-born Joo Hyun-young, Kim Ah-young clarified, "Ye-eun is the same age as me. And Hyun-young is a 'senior.'"
