Yang Se-chan's Choi San meme dance leaves Running Man groaning

Yang Se-chan Reenacts Ateez Choi San's 'Northern Grand Duke' Meme

In episode 813 of the SBS variety program 'Running Man' aired on the 26th, actors Kang Hun, Kim Hye-jun, and Cha Woo-min joined as guests for the 'The Goal is, Favorite Employee' race to seize gold bars.

The episode was conducted under a trading company employee concept. The members appeared in work attire that highlighted their individual personalities. Yoo Jae Suk scolded Yang Se-chan, who appeared with his shirt unbuttoned, asking, "Why did you come with your shirt so open?" Ji Ye-eun then revealed that Yang Se-chan had chosen Ateez Choi San as his concept for the day.

Immediately after the revelation, Yang Se-chan took off his short-sleeved shirt and transformed into a sleeveless look. He moved his body and performed a signature dance to reenact Choi San's 'Northern Grand Duke' meme, which has recently become a hot topic online. The production team broadcast Yang Se-chan's appearance, which contrasted with Choi San's, with the caption 'Bokbu-daegong' (Belly Grand Duke).

At Yang Se-chan's dance moves, Ji Ye-eun screamed in disgust, saying, "Ugh, I really hate this," and "Ugh, armpits!" Yoo Jae Suk also criticized Yang Se-chan's movements, saying, "This is truly the worst." Yoo Jae Suk even attempted to correct Yang Se-chan's dance moves, noting, "It's not a wave, it's just bouncing."

When guest Kang Hun joked that Yang Se-chan and Choi San seemed to be looking alike, Yang Se-chan shot back, "I don't want to grow old like this."

Trading Company Race for Gold Bars

Kim Jong Kook, Song Ji-hyo, and Haha appeared in the office without being late. Yoo Jae Suk pointed out to Haha, who appeared wearing short shorts, that "there should be a proper line for attire." Haha responded, "Aren't we a fashion company?"

Suspicions were raised within the office regarding the whereabouts of the gold bars. When Ji Suk-jin discovered the gold bars placed in the office, Haha claimed that this place was a 'trading company.' When Kim Jong Kook asked back, "Is our company a smuggling company?", Haha heightened the atmosphere on set by casting suspicious glances and asking once more, "Are we a mafia?" The race led to a competition among the employees to capture the most gold bars.
