Kim Jong-kook Faces Unexpected Challenge on 'Running Man'

Kim Jong-kook, a master's graduate from Dankook University, finds himself in an unexpected predicament on the latest episode of SBS's variety show 'Running Man.'

Airing on the 8th, the episode showcases the members embarking on a chaotic adventure across Seoul, armed with just a single drawing.

During the recent recording, the members were tasked with following the directions given by citizens based on a drawing by Yoo Jae-suk, known for his 'clumsy hands.' The drawing was so abstract that the members had to compete in a quiz mission to earn a chance to modify it. In a surprising twist, 'The Capable One' Kim Jong-kook became the unexpected weak link, drawing attention.

The challenge that flustered Kim Jong-kook was the 'writing in reverse' task. Instead of simply answering the quiz questions, the answers had to be written in reverse on a transparent board so that the production team could read them correctly. Known as one of the 'brains' of 'Running Man' alongside Yoo Jae-suk and Ji Suk-jin, Kim Jong-kook was caught off guard by this unexpected hurdle, reportedly breaking into a sweat.

From the first location, the members wasted more than half their time, racing against the clock to find citizens. As they neared the final destination, citizens offered incorrect guesses like "bathroom?" and "trash can?", leaving the members with meaningless photos.

Amidst the tension of the 'time attack,' viewers are left wondering if the members will complete their outing. The mysterious 'Draw as You Go Road Trip' race can be seen on 'Running Man,' airing at 6:10 PM.
