Yu Jae-seok Nominates Kim Jong-kook for KFA President on 'Running Man'

Yu Jae-seok has recommended Kim Jong-kook as the president of the Korea Football Association.

On the July 19 broadcast of SBS "Running Man," the "Work Commute" race took place.

On this day, the members earned coins based on the results of their missions and used them to choose between a product vending machine and a time vending machine to determine their commute time for the following week.

The commute time determined by the first mission result was 4:30 AM. The members expressed their dissatisfaction, saying, "If it is going to be like this, it would be better to have a negative result and get around 1 AM. 4 AM or 5 AM is the most awkward time."

Kim Jong-kook agreed, saying, "1 AM is perfect. I could play soccer, do my laundry, and then head out. It fits perfectly." The members advised him to skip soccer for at least one week, but Kim Jong-kook explained why he could not, saying, "I really cannot skip it. I wait all week for it."

Hearing this, Song Jihyo also told Kim Jong-kook, "You should have days off sometimes," to which Kim Jong-kook replied, "You take a break, you!" revealing his extraordinary affection for soccer.

Yu Jae-seok then said, "I nominate Kim Jong-kook as the president of the Korea Football Association," and Kim Jong-kook showed his confidence by saying, "I would definitely do it well."

Jee Seokjin also recommended Kim Jong-kook for the position, saying, "I guarantee it. You can trust him with it." Kim Jong-kook drew laughter by adding, “I would not even need to take 10 won in salary.”
