Running Man (런닝맨)

Running Man

[A train comes down the tracks as if a piece of the past.]

[A fog covered station at the foot of the hills.]

- What a scenic view. - Such grandeur.

- Pretty as a picture. - What is that? Is that a train?

There's a working train?

- It's a real working train. - Wow, that's so awesome.

[Everyone's impressed by the sight of the antique looking train.]

I think there's someone on the train.

- The train is stopping to let someone out. - Is it our guest?

[Guests who are as elegant as the train itself.]

[A woman whose beauty can be seen even from her faint silhouette.]

- I see someone! - There they are.

- Who is it? - She's really pretty with beautiful eyes!

She has really big eyes.

[A man who turns the train platform into a red carpeted runway.]

- Wow, he's so handsome. - Hello!

- Hello. - You didn't come alone, did you?

- I see a woman. - Who is it?

It's a woman.

[Someone whom Kwang Soo recognizes at a single glance.]

- It's Wang Ji Hye! - It's Wang Ji Hye!

[The definition of elegance, Wang Ji Hye.]

- Wow, she's so beautiful. - She's a good friend of mine!

Wang Ji Hye's wearing a revealing dress!

- What are you doing? - She made a fist at him.

[Inner toughness cloaked behind an exterior of elegance.]

- Her face is so tiny! - How do you and Kwang Soo know each other?

- We're not really that close. - What? You know we're good friends!

[Stay tuned for her antics with her buddy, the Giraffe.]

Someone else is getting off the train!

There he is!

It's Sang Jin!

[Variety world's late blooming gentleman, Han Sang Jin.]

[This one's Ji Hyo's good buddy- Friends ever since filming a movie together.]

- Wow, he looks so handsome. - Hello.

- I'm a big fan of your wife. - This is for Jin Hye.

- Stop being like that! - I just didn't want her to be cold.

It's because she's cold! I just don't want her to be cold.

Kwang Soo's doing it!

[Having lost their chance to Kwang Soo from all their bickering.]

Kwang Soo did it.

Who is it?

[Who does that familiar laughter belong to?]

It's Sang Wook!

[The undeniably good looking actor, Joo Sang Wook.]

- It's so great to see you! - Everyone seem so happy to see one another.

[Multiple appearances on Running Man- Already good friends with the members.]

He always comes on during the post season.

[Always makes an appearance during the annual fall baseball episodes.]

It's so great to see you!

[The birth of a beauty- Enough to shock all the members.]

[Is this a dream? Or a reality?]

- It's Han Ye Seul! - It's Han Ye Seul!

Seriously?

- Wow, look at her! - It's Han Ye Seul!

- Seriously? - It really is Han Ye Seul.

[The return of the goddess, Han Ye Seul.]

Gary's already in love.

[Han Ye Seul's return to the variety world after seven years of absence.]

- She's such a huge star! - She's so beautiful.

[Takes his coat off Ji Hye to put it around the goddess' shoulders.]

- What are you doing? - She looked like she was cold.

Sorry to say this, but why don't you stand with us?

I thought you wanted me to stand there. I'm sorry.

Sang Wook's looking smaller than usual.

[Sudden act of masculinity in front of Ye Seul.]

What are you doing?

Please welcome the five stars of the new upcoming drama, Birth of a Beauty.

[The new weekend drama, Birth of a Beauty.]

[Stay tuned for the fantastic chemistry between these five.]

I want to show off my dress.

Thank you, Kwang Soo.

Why are you trying to cover up her beautiful dress?

- They took care to dress for the show. - Knock it off!

Why are you acting like such a brat today?

[This air of excitement is the effect Ye Seul has on the members.]

I'm in such a great mood right now.

Today's race is the White Knight vs Black Knight Race.

I will announce the two teams before we start the mission.

The Red Team is Han Ye Seul, Han Sang Jin, Yoo Jae Suk, Ha Ha, and Lee Kwang Soo.

The remaining members will make up the other team.

The Blue Team is Sang Wook, Gyu Woon, Ji Hye, Jong Kook, Suk Jin, Gary and Ji Hyo.

[Blue Team- Sang Wook, Gyu Woon, Ji Hye, Suk Jin, Jong Kook, Gary and Ji Hyo.]

I need each of you to come up and choose a card from the table in front of you.

[They cannot share the identity of their card with anyone else.]

[Members of both teams complete making their card selection.]

- Have you checked your cards? - Yes.

The cards showed a picture of either a white knight or a black knight.

[The cards contained a picture of either a black or a white knight.]

Of the twelve cards, there were five white knights and seven black knights.

But the numbers of each of those knights are divided up between the two teams.

They're all mixed between the two teams.

- Then one of us could be a black knight? - Yes, that's correct.

There could be some black knights on White Knight Team as well.

- I'm not sure what mine is. - Don't act like that.

Han Ye Seul is the white knight's queen.

The representative of the team that wins the mission

will get to find out how many black and white knights there are on their team

and they'll get the chance to swap out one of their team members with an opposing member.

The goal of your mission is this.

There will be a total of five exchanges made throughout the race today.

If everyone on the White Knight Team ends up being white knights in the end

then her team wins the race.

Those with the black knight card in their hand

must try to stand with the White Knight Team at the end to deter them from winning.

- That's how Team Black Knight can win. - Okay, let's win this race!

Go away.

- Can I get an umbrella? - I think he's a black knight.

[Only they know whether they're a black or white knight.]

[Will Ye Seul be able to gather all of her five white knights together?]

How are we going to differentiate the white knights from the black knights?

Sang Wook, if you're a black knight, then just get away from us.

- Black knight? - Then are you a white knight?

- Are you a white knight? - I'm just walking right now.

- Fold up your umbrella. - Fold up your umbrella, Sang Wook.

There has to be at least one white knight on our team, right?

[The Blue Team is also trying to determine who each of them are.]

- Are you white or black? - She looks like a white knight.

Can't you just tell by her porcelain skin that she's a white knight?

- You do have very porcelain skin. - I don't trust actors.

[Will they be able to tell the white knights apart from the black knights?]

Wow, you really are so pretty. How can you be that pretty?

Ye Seul, isn't this practically your first time on a variety show?

- I think it's been seven years. - Seven years?

[First variety show appearance in seven years.]

I don't think I've ever done a show with Ye Seul before.

Then why are you talking so casually with her?

She's like a sister to me!

- It's nice to meet you. - What the heck!

[Or someone whom he wants to be as close as a brother to.]

- What's wrong with you these days? - Did you just see what Ye Seul did?

Ye Seul is the best!

I brought a hot heating pack.

- She uses casual speech with everyone. - Really?

See? She's the casual speaking type, too!

- I love people like that. - Ye Seul, let's just talk comfortably.

- Ye Seul, let's speak in casually. - Okay!

[Let's all become good friends with one another.]

- I didn't know Ye Seul was like this. - She's so laid back.

- Ye Seul. - What?

- Did you get to chat on the way? - We talked the whole way here.

- We're on casual terms with Ye Seul already. - We're good friends already.

- Sang Jin also told us... - She lowers her speech with everyone.

Director, did you already eat?

The Director's face has turned beet red.

Did ya eat?

- 'Did ya eat!' - That's so cute, don't you know!

[Short and sweet country dialect greeting.]

In keeping up with the theme of this park, your first mission is train related.

Everyone will start to dance until the sound of the horn is heard.

- Then we have to get on the train? - Sit in this thing?

Two people per train are allowed, but your butts have to be touching the seat.

It's possible that you could fit even more per seat.

Only those who are seated will be passed through to the snack tent over there.

[Find a seat and win the chance to enjoy a hearty snack under the tent.]

I love dancing outside in the rain.

[Dancing fool, Yoo Hyuk, is excited at the chance to dance with Ye Seul.]

If I were a black knight and I worked really hard to win at these missions

then I'd have the chance to swap out whomever I wanted, right?

Then can I swap myself out knowing that I'm a black knight?

- What do you mean by that? - If I were to be a black knight.

He must be a black knight.

[Everyone's convinced that Kkuk is a black knight.]

Isn't this game to the black knight's advantage?

Even though we're teamed up this way, there may be many white knights on our team.

Which means that Ha Ha could also be a black knight. That remains a secret.

- Are you a black knight? - Are you really a black knight?

No, I'm not! Ye Seul, you have to believe me!

This is so unfair! I won't stand for it.

- I'll believe you. - You know what'll happen?

People who talk like you are the real black knights.

Not saying anything is the best thing to do.

- You're being suspicious. - I don't trust you.

- How am I acting suspicious? - Because you look like this right now.

[The look of betrayal on Kwang Soo's face?]

- Since there are women... - Then I'll play it rough.

- Really rough. - Let's do this!

[Do they not go easy on their guests on this show?]

I've mentioned something to the writers in the past

about always playing such old songs like songs from Turbo...

- What? Songs from Turbo? - Those old songs...

[Getting a rise out of the Twist King of the past.]

I want to see Ji Hye's dance moves.

- Wang Ji Hye even does tumbling moves. - Seriously?

Wang Ji Hye!

What's tumbling?
