The members of 'Running Man' performed a shocking (?) mission by wandering around the heart of Seoul in rags and putting on a show for the citizens.
In the episode aired on the 2nd, an extreme mission titled 'Those Who Laugh in Paradise VS Those Who Cry in Hell' unfolded. The members who ended up on the 'Hell-bound' due to a lack of tickets faced the humiliating situation of having to perform for citizens while dressed as beggars.
In this race, the members conducted a 'Listening Quiz' to earn tickets to Paradise. They were given the mission to listen to only a part of a song, guess the artist and title, and then perform it live.


In particular, Ji Ye-eun devastated the scene with her live singing skills that were inversely proportional to her high accuracy rate. On the other hand, Park Eun-tae, Lee Seok-hoon, and Kyuhyun showcased their premium vocal abilities, providing a 'heavenly' performance.
However, while the mission was progressing smoothly, Park Eun-tae made an unexpected major mistake. The members declared a group 'cut-off' saying, 'This is indefensible,' and Park Eun-tae was left in a cold sweat.
Touring Seoul in Rags... "Is This a Punishment?"
Meanwhile, the members who ended up on the 'Hell-bound' due to a lack of tickets experienced unexpected humiliation. They had to perform congratulatory shows as clowns dressed as beggars in order to eat lunch, a harsh mission.
Starving, the members desperately attempted to perform, looking for anyone passing by who might have something to celebrate, but the citizens were colder than expected. A "spear and shield-like interview" ensued, creating a bittersweet situation. In the end, the members expressed their grievances, saying, 'Isn't this a punishment?'
Who will be the 'hero of paradise' that laughs in the end, overcoming all the humiliations?
Meanwhile, this 'Those Who Laugh in Paradise' race will be expanded by 10 minutes, promising an even fiercer competition.
