Yang Se-chan strikes gold before Running Man's 4:30 AM twist

Yang Se-chan's Gold Jackpot and Yoo Jae-suk's Body Search

In the episode of SBS variety show 'Running Man' aired on the 19th, the 'Work Call Yahoo' race took place to determine next week's call time. The members participated in a game where they used coins earned through missions to choose between either a prize vending machine or a time vending machine to set their call time for the following week.

Expecting a tablet PC or half a don of gold, Yang Se-chan chose the prize vending machine, and the result was a massive success. Upon pulling out the desired half a don of gold, Yang Se-chan threw himself onto the ground to express his intense joy. Yoo Jae-suk immediately attempted to search Yang Se-chan's body, discovering the gold hidden inside his pants, which sent the set into fits of laughter.

Yang Se-chan also pulled a luxury body wash set worth approximately 100,000 won. He attempted to hide the prize in his oversized pants to smuggle it away, but he was eventually caught due to the members' persistent body searches. Meanwhile, Yoo Jae-suk joked about Yang Se-chan's look, saying, "Since his stylist changed, he's turned into the old Ji Suk-jin style," revealing the behind-the-scenes fact that Ji Suk-jin's actual stylist had taken a job as Yang Se-chan's stylist.

Yoo Jae-suk's Strategic Choice and Ji Ye-eun's Twist Result

Unlike Yang Se-chan, who aimed for prizes, Yoo Jae-suk chose the time vending machine. Making a strategic move, Yoo Jae-suk stated, "Statistically, it's hard to get the prize I like. It's better to just pull a time instead."

He pulled 'Plus 1' from the vending machine, pushing the originally scheduled call time of 5:30 AM back by one hour to 6:30 AM.

However, the twist came from Ji Ye-eun's choice. The result Ji Ye-eun pulled was 'Minus 2.' As a result, the final confirmed call time for next week was moved forward to 4:30 AM. Ji Ye-eun appeared dejected, saying, "I pressed the button with good intentions, but a minus came out." The members joked with concern about the brutal call time, saying, "If it was going to be like this, we should have just pulled prizes. At this time, the cameras could arrive in just 3 minutes."

Personal updates were also shared among the members during the broadcast. When Haha mentioned his father's birthday, Kim Jong Kook brought up his trip to Vegas for his mother's birthday, prompting Song Ji-hyo to express disappointment that it wasn't news about a second generation.

Ji Suk-jin gave an eccentric response regarding a thank-you message from a Hannam University student mentioned by Haha, claiming he was asked to tell a dental nurse his name but had forgotten it.
