Running Man (런닝맨)

(This show features indirect advertisements.)

- You should get on my good side. - That must sting.

- What? - When did you debut?

- What do you mean? - What year did you debut?

(Three comedians started setting the hierarchy.)

- Hang on. - When was your debut?

I'm a tenth-term KBS comedian.

- I'm in the seventh term. - That's a big difference.

- He can't even look him in the eye. - Right.

(That's how their hierarchy became known to the world.)

Junior Jee, what do you usually use?

- Are you calling me Junior Jee? - Junior Jee.

You know I'm the seventh-term KBS comedian.

(Junior Jee can't stand being called a junior.)

Who are the comedians from your term?

- Me? Song Eun I. - Eun I?

- Yes, Song Eun I. - You all should gather up sometime.

You should be picking up the wooden log.

- Should I call Eun I? - Hey.

- Do you think Eun I will listen? - Yes.

(Senior Comedian Yu begins to enforce strict discipline.)

I should call the juniors over.

(A time-travel journey to find their roots)

This is really delicious.

Hello.

That's what I hate the most.

The Time Controller!

I'm Reporter Jee Seok Jin.

I've been through the wringer myself.

Come in.

Yes.

(The 10th-term KBS junior, Jee Seok Jin)

- Seok Jin. - Hello.

Seok Jin.

Seok Jin.

(Junior Jee slams the door in his senior's face.)

Seok Jin?

I'm the only one here. What do I do?

I can't be alone with him. What if he...

Seok Jin.

(An unwanted one-on-one with the terrifying senior)

Come on in.

- Yes. - Come on in.

- Hello. - Yes. We're in 1995 now.

- In 1995? - We're a senior and junior.

Okay. But when we are alone...

(He hides his tacky past by wearing denim.)

- I do know you're older. - You respect my age.

- But we're at work now. - Is that why?

- There are cameras here. - You didn't look...

so fashionable back then. Your style has leveled up.

You didn't look so fashionable back then.

(His fashion sense is detached from reality.)

Your style has leveled up.

Isn't this from the 1980s?

(They are all dressed up, acting as if they have always been cool.)

This is how I used to dress.

- But we're in the 1990s now. - I know.

Just bring me a coffee.

- Coffee? - Yes.

- But you... - You know, junior comedians...

(The day always began with coffee errands back then.)

- This should be real. - used to carry around coins...

in their pockets for coffee.

- I know that, but... - If you know, just do it.

But this isn't what you did to me back then.

If you know how it works, just do it.

- Do you want coffee? - I want Solomon's seal tea.

- You want Solomon's seal tea? - Yes.

This is driving me crazy. Should I make a light brew?

Don't brew it for a long time. Take the tea bag out quickly.

Do you want me to take it out?

Why aren't they coming? I have many peers.

- Why are we dressed like this? - Why?

(Meanwhile, some people are getting ready to time travel.)

Aren't we doing the name tag elimination?

What is going on? I'm turning 60 soon.

(The 10th-term KBS comedians, Cho Hye Lyun and Song Eun I)

Right. I'm wearing clothes that are shedding dust.

- Pardon? - After 30 years.

He wants us to come?

(Seok Sam's peers have officially been summoned.)

Junior Jee, what do you usually use?

Why do they keep calling each other senior and junior?

(They watch the video where the peers were summoned.)

- Oh, right. The seventh term. - He means the KBS comedians?

Jae Seok is our senior.

- He's from the seventh term. - Song Eun I.

You all should gather up sometime.

Gather for what?

Why is he telling us to gather around?

Then, are they in there living in 1995 now?

(Their peer, Seok Sam, dragged them back to 1995.)

- Yes. It's 1995. - Now? I see.

Gosh, I hate it.

He used to be so condescending.

All right. Here.

My goodness.

Go in.

(Hye Lyun and Eun I enter the lounge of 1995.)

- The juniors are here. - Hey.

- Hello. - Hye Lyun.

- Hey. Hye Lyun. - Hello.

- Hello. - You are his peers, right?

- Hello. - Hello.

Senior Jae Seok.

- Are you the chief director? - No.

- Her lips... - But...

- But the junior... - Look at her lips.

Are you sure you're my junior?

- Yes. - Are you Eun I's mom?

- No. - Are you her mom?

(Small Eun I is realistically portrayed.)

- No. - Or Hye Lyun's mom?

- No, I'm not. - No?

- Hey, Eun I. - Hello.

- Hey, you're here. - Yes.

(The 10th-term comedians, Eun I and Hye Lyun are here.)

- Have a seat. - Come here.

- Seok Jin. - Okay.

- Let's sit. - But why is your nose so pointy?

- This is what I did back then. - Your makeup...

Her lips remind me of that time.

- It was a huge trend back then. - The overlined lips.

- Exactly. - I lined my lips in brown...

(Overlined lips that turned them into Angelina Jolie)

- Exactly. - and put on lipstick like this.

- I had overlined lips. - To make them look thick.

This is hilarious. So, they are my peers.

You're wearing clothes...

You're wearing clothes from back then.

Eun I looks the same as she was back then.

- Yes. - Her face looks the same.

- I didn't wear makeup back then. - Right.

(She looks just the same as she did 30 years ago.)

I just went around bare-faced.

You three were peers back in 1995, right?

Yes. That's right.

By the way, you usually didn't get to sit...

- in that spot anyway? - I didn't.

(Backed by his peers, he sounds quite confident.)

You usually didn't get to sit in that spot anyway?

I didn't.

- But the other seniors... - You weren't popular at all.

- aren't here now. - From what I remember,

I didn't really see you on TV much back then.

- And we had a blackboard there. - Right. Actually,

I'd usually sit next to you guys.

You never sat there.

(In charge of a corner of the comedians' lounge)

- Right. - It was impossible.

- You never sat there. - Right.

- And... - How dare he sit there?

He'd always sit in a corner, and I wasn't...

even here.

(He takes the best seat while the seniors aren't around.)

I was like, "Stockings, energy drinks,"

"and cold remedy? Okay. I'll be right back."

- All right. - What?

Hello.

I'm rookie comedian Yang Se Chan.

I was not there

Nice to meet you.

- You weren't really there. - Nice to meet you.

- No, you weren't. - You weren't here.

I was nine back then

- He was 9. - He was 9 back then.

(Ssaebssaeb was in elementary school back in 1995.)

- He was nine. - Come here.

You rascal.

Yes, I was nine

You brat. Your seniors are sitting right here. Show some respect.

(He starts to give the juniors a hard time right away.)

- Yes. - Get into a push-up position.

Go ahead and hit me.

(The junior gets hit in a somewhat annoying pose.)

- One, two. - Stand right there.

- He likes it. - Thank you.

I'm doing this because I care about you.

There was no pain

No pain?

- It doesn't hurt. - It must hurt.

It didn't hurt at all

- Yes. - It doesn't hurt.
