Actress Lee Joo-bin is returning to SBS's 'Running Man' after six years, bringing her upgraded variety show skills and unrivaled charm.
On the upcoming episode of SBS's 'Running Man' airing on May 31, Lee Joo-bin will appear as a guest and captivate viewers with her thrilling variety skills.
During the recent recording, Lee Joo-bin reunited with the 'Running Man' cast for the first time in about six years. Upon her arrival, the 'Running Man' members welcomed her with enthusiastic cheers. In particular, they praised her past appearance, where she showed off her fierce competitiveness and easygoing, unexpected charm, saying, "She has returned as an even bigger star." Lee Joo-bin also jumped into the race with an active attitude right from the opening, instantly heating up the atmosphere on set.
The race for this episode was designed around the theme "I Will Prove It with My Face," inspired by Lee Joo-bin, who previously went viral online for her "legendary ID photo." The cast members were given a mission to choose and wear five correct makeup props out of ten options hidden by the production team—which represent the "ideal facial conditions of an entertainer"—and then take an ID photo.
With a brutal rule stating that choosing even a single incorrect prop would land them on the "overtime candidate" list, uncontrollable suspicion and betrayal began to brew among the members. Amidst a fierce battle of wits where they leaked false information and deceived one another to force others into working overtime, Yu Jae-seok reportedly gathered the members, shouting, "Everyone, gather up!" and initiated a hilarious, anger-fueled "scolding session," turning the set into a sea of laughter.
Amidst the chaotic web of deception, whether Lee Joo-bin and the 'Running Man' members can successfully find the correct props and avoid working overtime will be revealed. The "I Will Prove It with My Face" race on 'Running Man' will air on Sunday, May 31, at 6:00 PM, starting 10 minutes earlier than usual.
