Kyler Murray made a surprise visit to 'Running Man'.
The SBS variety show 'Running Man' aired on the afternoon of the 30th, themed 'How to Become a Dragon'.
On this day, Yook Sungjae and Kim Jiyeon appeared as guests. The production team explained, "You will be divided into two teams and must find the Yeouiju by 4 PM. The Yeouiju levels range from 1 to 10. You must place the Yeouiju on your final podium. The individual with the lowest score in the winning team will face a penalty, while the individual with the highest score in the losing team will receive a prize."
Afterward, the members changed into team uniforms, dividing into Team Yook Sungjae and Team Kim Jiyeon. Yook Sungjae expressed his enthusiasm, saying, "I didn't quite understand the explanation earlier, but if we complete the mission, we get the Yeouiju? It could be on the street, right? So it could be here?"
The production team explained, "This is a mission to find the Yeouiju. The mission is called 'What is Missing?' You will draw a picture without one of the prompts and find out what is missing."
Ji Ye-eun guessed 'Glass Slipper', giving Yoo Jae-suk's team a 1-point lead, while Yook Sungjae from Team Jiyeon took on the role of drawing member. Kim Jong-kook guessed 'Magic Lamp', allowing his team to quickly catch up to Team Yook Sungjae.
Later, Team Kim Jiyeon turned the tables, leading 3 to 2. The production team announced, "The winning team will receive two beneficial items, while the losing team will receive one."
Ji Seok-jin received a hint stating, "The closer you get to the Yeouiju, the louder the sound becomes. It can only be used for 2 minutes," and the production team provided the members with glasses and earphones, saying, "Wearing these will give you information about the Yeouiju."
Wearing the items, Team Yook Sungjae searched Han River Park for the Yeouiju and found five. Meanwhile, Team Kim Jiyeon boarded a circular train to start their search for the Yeouiju.
Upon hearing from the production team that new Yeouiju had appeared, Team Yook Sungjae said, "There are three Yeouiju at the Western Restaurant and three at the meat restaurant in Mapo. Should we go to the Western Restaurant?"
Yook Sungjae added, "Jiyeon definitely prefers the meat restaurant. I've been friends with her for 15 years. During filming, they give us an hour for lunch and dinner, and we always end up eating pork belly. Even when there's no time, we eat pork belly."
Upon arriving at the Western Restaurant, Team Sungjae focused on finding the Yeouiju, and Yoo Jae-suk discovered one in the freezer. Yook Sungjae kept taking pictures, saying, "If I take a picture, I can check the level immediately," which made the other members suspicious, asking, "Why are you taking pictures?"
Yook Sungjae replied, "This is for the team. It's true that I can know the score by taking pictures," and Yang Se-chan expressed his frustration, saying, "So this means it becomes yours? Who does that? You make me use all this and then claim it at the end. In the end, you win, right?"
Yook Sungjae tried to persuade him, saying, "So if I take pictures of the opposing team, we will definitely win," and Yang Se-chan joined him to Team Kim Jiyeon. After taking a picture of the ice ball discovered by Ji Seok-jin, Yook Sungjae confirmed it was level 9 and went outside.
At that moment, Yang Se-chan broke Ji Seok-jin's ice ball, and Ji Seok-jin expressed his anger, saying, "I have one of these." Upon arriving at the Western Restaurant, Yang Se-chan said, "Sungjae took all the pictures. He honestly told me that if you take pictures, the level score comes out," being straightforward.
After the meal, Team Sungjae resumed their search for the Yeouiju, and while looking for food again, Ji Ye-eun exclaimed, "I found it!" as she picked up an abalone. However, despite needing to keep more than half of the abalone meat, Ji Ye-eun bit into it, and the production team's announcement of "It's over" left the team in despair.
Ji Ye-eun protested, "There's still some left. I only chewed it twice. It hasn't been dispersed," trying to spit it out, while Yook Sungjae questioned, "But why did you show it to us?" Yang Se-chan frowned, saying, "We don't want to see it. Just eat it."
Later, the production team revealed that the abalone was level 8, leading the team to despair, and Yang Se-chan remarked, "Eating is scary... For example, if this is here, you should say 'I found it,' but why eat it? It's after the meal, not before."
At the same time, Team Jiyeon also had to leave half of a fried egg, but Haha, unaware of this, swallowed the fried egg, causing the Yeouiju to disappear.
Both teams headed to Han River Park to obtain the Yeouiju of level 10. The production team introduced a surprise guest, saying, "You cannot take the Yeouiju carelessly. To protect the Yeouiju, we have Kyler Murray, a football player who flew in from the USA."
Yoo Jae-suk said, "The contract is over 300 billion. I know it very well! I love the NFL," and asked Kyler to greet the members. Kyler responded, "My mom loves 'Running Man'. I love JK (Kim Jong-kook)," revealing his knowledge of 'Running Man' and touching the members.
The production team explained, "The final mission is 'Touchdown from a Distance.' Three members from each team will come out, and the one with the tail must retrieve the ball and score a touchdown. If the tail is torn off, they must recharge it, and the two without tails must run away."
Yoo Jae-suk expressed his fear, saying, "Is Kyler going to hit our heads with a hammer?" The football game then commenced, during which Ji Seok-jin revealed his fan spirit, shouting, "Kyler! I'm your fan!" Yoo Jae-suk asked, "Which team is Kyler on?"
When Ji Seok-jin replied, "San Francisco," Yoo Jae-suk remarked, "It's Arizona," observing Kyler's reaction. Seeing Kyler's angry expression, Kim Jong-kook and Haha scolded Ji Seok-jin, asking, "Why did you say that?" Kyler responded, "I don't like it," hitting the wall.
Ultimately, Kyler, angered by Ji Seok-jin, showed generosity to Team Kim Jiyeon, leading them to victory.
Each team set out again to find the Yeouiju after hearing that three were detected at Seoul Ham Park, and after summing up all the Yeouiju scores, Team Yook Sungjae emerged victorious with a total score of 52 to 46.
The losing team, Haha, Kim Jiyeon, and Ji Seok-jin, along with Ji Ye-eun, who received the lowest score from the winning team, performed the punishment of flying a kite.
It airs on Sundays at 6:15 PM on SBS.
