I'm not sure if you're asking rhetorically or not but here goes..

Can Hyorin swim? Because in the pool game she made a comment about drowning and was holding Jong Kook's shoulders while he took her to the middle of the pool.
I remember Sulli not jumping off the diving board in her RM episode, they didn't explain it then either but I know she can't swim. (Kwang Hee did jump and went back to the side on his own and he can't swim either so I thought that was pretty cool of him.

They wanted to have 3 people jump for Wooyoung (as is usually the case for this) to see if he could do more turns.

I might just watch this for infinite and 2pm. I haven't watched anything kpop related for around a year now.

[kareymoop.livejournal.com]

just a heads up, but infinite are actually pretty quiet in this episode.

[laeryn.livejournal.com]

Haha's face was also my face, lmao. Freaking baby-faced Myungsoo.

This episode was SO MUCH FUN with the dancing (NEVER FORGETTING JONG KOOK DANCING TO SISTAR. NEVER) and the whole game in the swimming pool and the jumping. Obviously they had to share a lot of screentime with so many people but :DDD

[asnindie.livejournal.com]

Kpop is at it's best when fandoms collide and we see different idols interacting. Probably my first ep of RM I'll watch in two years tho.

[ceecile.livejournal.com]

Probably my first ep of RM I'll watch in two years. Aw that's sad

[millie (from livejournal.com)]

This episode was great.

[missyxcindy.livejournal.com]

Loved the dance intro! I've already watched it like 5x!

[millie (from livejournal.com)]

I don't know who put him in those shorts with knee socks but they deserve a cake and a medal.

[ah-mui.livejournal.com]

This episode was great (and is it me but is Hyorin practically invisible throughout the whole show?), but thank god I already watched the episode before they released that BTS clip. The opening and the cast reactions were hilarious, I didn't want the BTS to spoil the magic lol

[setsuna16.livejournal.com]

Jong-Kook's dance with Sistar had me ROLLING!!! Work it, Kookie! Gary did well, too.

I really liked this episode. Particularly the part where they interacted with the crowd at the stadium. The Running Man cast seems to truly appreciate their fans, and that is touching to me.

I am surprised that they had all these idols, but none of them were from SM, though.

dramafever has the whole episode (and more episodes) on youtube in hd too! you just need to turn on the captions

[ceecile.livejournal.com]

Dramafever is restricted to the US

[timetocomehome.livejournal.com]

Kwangsoo + MBLAQ's entrance was EVERYTHING is this episode. (Mainly because I've only gotten that far into the episode... I have to finish some schoolwork before I watch the rest hahaha)

[lucyownsjoaquin.livejournal.com]

kim jong kook's dance was everything, i was in tears.

[sjtaazrz.livejournal.com]

It was perfection, the gum chewing, the swaying, and how his ending pose made him look like Mr. Universe. Hysterical!

[hugtimes.livejournal.com]

omg girls day and a pink in the same episode?
i really need to watch this.

[deaaan.livejournal.com]

an ep w all my faves omg (minus 2pm/beast but w/e) so it was pretty entertaining

also pretty sure hyorin was an rm guest before?

[contralilium.livejournal.com]

sames.

hyorin was in ep 75 and 95 (with SISTAR) but in ep 75, she's also guesting with Sohee, Minho, Siwon and Sulli, and in ep 95, SISTAR are only in it for around 10 minutes

[contralilium.livejournal.com]

Despite 2pm/Beast and the complete lack of SISTAR, I still thought this was a pretty good episode. I DIED when Eunji asked Jihyo if they (APINK) should get out of the car.

Suk Jin trying so hard to live up to his Champion Bros expectations was awesome, Haha's and Sunggyu's matching personalities was hilarious.

I loved how, after Girl's Day won the blob jump, they said "Everyday~ Girl's Day!" so many times that Dasom (not to be out done) snuck up close to them and whispered, "we're the B.E.S.T SISTAR". lol, Dasom was trying so hard in that ep (even going as far as to start a love~ line with Kwangsoo) that I really hope she (and Eunji and Minah actually) get asked back for an episode where there are less guests.

*I also wish that Hyorin could be asked back if only to redeem herself and show people that she doesn't have a bad attitude
**matter fact, let's just have an episode with all of SISTAR y/y?

***thanks for posting OP, can't wait to discuss this week's episode next week!

[porcupinegloves.livejournal.com]

mte about dasom, bless her for trying so hard even though she was in the most boring team (i love hyorin but it was almost like she wasn't there)

[obscurajae.livejournal.com]

This was a fun episode! Netizens may live to complain about having idols on, but I like it~

The dance intro was epic. Jongkook dancing with Sistar had me in tears, as did Kwangsoo's dramatic interpretation of Y.

Oh, Sunggyu's face during the blob jump I just want to squish him so hard! And a big YES to Myungsoo's thighs - I was sad when he changed his shorts later :(

Lee Joon was adorable and wonderful as always. It was too cute how excited he was when he won dodgeball.

Definitely looking forward to 3/5 of BIGBANG next week although I wish TOP would have joined them...

[halfdressedliar.livejournal.com]

This episode kept entertained the whole way through. Poor Jaesuk though with Girl's Day having to leave. The challenges they had were great too since you got to see most of everyone even if the focus wasn't really on them individually.

[gdgdbb.livejournal.com]

L should go on running man more often, he's pretty good at whatever they throw at him.

i'm by no means a hottest but whenever i see 2pm on RM it's a must-watch for me

[ceecile.livejournal.com]

Not really. That's his 2nd time on RM and I almost wrote him as 1st time guest along with Hyorin. I don't think I ever heard his voice on the show and he's pretty forgettable.

[teejay1092.livejournal.com]

Flawless episode. That opening SLAYED me omg I was in tears from laughing so hard.

Stand-out guests for me were Joon (as per usual) and Eunji (who they should totally invite back btw) though I fully admit that could just be my bias talking.

[ceecile.livejournal.com]

I agree about Lee Joon. I'm not biased and I think he meshes really well with the cast and his variety character works great with RM's concept and general ~feel.

[somacomatose.livejournal.com]

gah 2pm + sukjin were SO CLOSE at the end, if they had won more time in the day's challenges they would have won!

and joon should totally be a fixed member, his character would fit right in.

[porcupinegloves.livejournal.com]

this episode was really so much fun! bless whoever thought about putting joon/kwang soo and girl's day/jae suk in the same team, those are perfect matches

2pm did great as expected but even if they hadn't done anything else in the episode, their first game would be worth it, it was SOOO funny
i felt avenged when eunji got sunggyu out of the dodgeball game lmao, that was probably my favorite part of the episode

i love naeun, hyorin and L but they are no running man material, judging by this episode (even if myungsoo actually does really well in the challenges)

joon tho, he was the best, he's perfect for running man
they should invite eunji and minah again, they did great (in my biased opinion)

[swhyeon1991.livejournal.com]

Sunggyuㅠㅠㅠㅠㅠㅠㅠㅠㅠㅠㅠ
Never expected him to catch the dodge ball once lmao but out of everyone to get him out it was Eunji lololol bless.

[modestgoddess79.livejournal.com]

This episode was hilarious. I loved the dance intros, the 2pm/Sukjin pairing and my precious Joon. I thought the cast meshed very well with the idols. I'm glad it was a challenging episode, sometimes RM dumbs things down for guest. The only thing that could make this episode more perfect is if Yonghwa was there.

[shocko-o.livejournal.com]

great opening! go ji suk jin and jong kookie!
i LOLed every time jaesuk shouted 'every day is girls' day!' at the end
i did find the choice of games really odd and a bit lackluster this time, especially the water game (i can't really believe all the girls passed and left joon, jaesuk, kwangsoo, and sukjin at the end).

a pink were really cute!
