I thought this was a hilarious episode. Especially everyone's reactions when it came to the slide challenge. (Especially with it wearing even KJK out!)

It also kind of freaks me out whenever I see so much KT tape on KJK...what on earth is he doing that requires so much of it on a weekly basis? Does he do other athletic competitions?

[michi z. (from livejournal.com)]

Me too :) It's always nice when cast and guests know each other =) And with that many variety veterans... It's the interactions that made that episode so great to watch!

Nah I don't really worry about all the KT on Jong Kook^^ KT is mostly used prophylactic or stabilising. JK had a knee injury before so I guess he uses it for stabilisation. A lot of athletes use it actuall and it's become like a must have^^ There's no actual proof that KT actually helps but oh well... I used it once too on my knee bc it hurt and I didn't want to use normal tape since that makes everything stiff but the KT is like a second skin that allows you to move like always ;)

I was surprised that Heechul agreed to go on tbh. But haven't watched it yet

[hozrien.livejournal.com]

Eh, I didn't really enjoy it. I found the dodgeball and mud thing amusing though - I honestly like when they have to move around in the mud.

It was awkward when they brought up Heechul's comment on RM, but I lost it when he said RM is elegant.

I'm glad they made an episode devoted to JSJ, but it was funny how some guests seemed closer with the other hosts. It's inevitable when you're all part of the same crowd I guess. Heechul was helping Jihyo with her rabbit head, I wonder why they didn't mention that MC connection.

Heechul is such a hypocrite. He was just talking shit about how 'juvenile' Running Man was like 6 months ago and now he's on the show.

Bitch, please.

[stoppedclock321.livejournal.com]

Serious question though, isn't it kind of juvenile? And juvenile doesn't automatically mean bad.

[setsuna16.livejournal.com]

The context that he made the statement was throwing shade on the show, in my opinion.

You are right, though, Running Man IS juvenile in some ways, and that doesn't necessarily have negative connotation.

[revertigo.livejournal.com]

aw yay! my first comment at omona will of course be in a running man post :D it makes me sad when ppl say the ratings have declined (which is inevitable with most shows) because the quality did, but i've been watching them out of order and enjoy the most recent ones way more. can't wait to watch this one because i adore kim jedong.

p.s. would someone help me ID a song? it's usually playing in the background when they intro a bunch of fierce ladies
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=aGFPzlr-ZO0 (about 1:00 in). i tried looking through the comments but it's 600+ worth of nonsense bashing female guests (apparently they ~finally~ have ones who participate or w/e) like they do every week.

[revertigo.livejournal.com]

thank you thank you <3

It's 'I heard some rumor' by Jang Ki Ha and the Faces (풍문으로 들었소 - 장기하와 얼굴들). It's the OST from the movie Nameless Gangster ^^




And yes, welcome to the weekly RM discussion posts!

[revertigo.livejournal.com]

thanks! it just makes me want to strut everywhere with a baseball bat in hand idk

[modernelegance.livejournal.com]

I agree with you. I know I'm a fairly new fan as well but I think the newer episodes are great.

[revertigo.livejournal.com]

ikr. if everything was the same as 2011/2010, people would complain about it being redundant.


did you watch "obsession" w/o the subtitles? i did because i'm a pervert lol no regrets, etc.

[modernelegance.livejournal.com]

No! I didn't get a chance to!! (Mostly because I fell asleep at my computer after our conversation) Was it good???? GAH. I need to set aside a few hours to watch it ASAP.

[revertigo.livejournal.com]

i have no idea lol but the love scenes were :3 i'll definitely have to rewatch when it becomes available with subtitles.

[modernelegance.livejournal.com]

I'll definitely let you know when I find it! I go search for it every once in awhile to see if it's popped up anywhere.

[setsuna16.livejournal.com]

I've finished the episode. It was decent enough. I always like it when they bring out the foam animal heads, even if I had a hard time distinguishing the Fox, I thought it was a Jackal.
