S1·E70 KT Building

Episode recap

Running Man Season 1 reached its seventieth installment on 27 November 2011, a broadcast that placed the iconic KT Building at the center of the episode’s setting. The episode is catalogued in the series’ official database as “Landmark: KT Building,” indicating that the location itself served as the primary backdrop for the show’s activities. In keeping with the program’s format as a Korean comedy‑reality variety series, the regular cast welcomed three well‑known guests for this broadcast: actor Lee Min‑ki, actor Park Chul‑min, and actress Son Ye‑jin. Their participation was highlighted in the episode’s promotional material and listed in the episode’s official synopsis.

As a TV‑14 rated program, Running Man blends humor with competitive challenges, and each episode typically unfolds with an opening segment that introduces the day’s venue and guest lineup, followed by a series of games, missions, or tasks that make use of the surrounding environment. While the specific nature of the challenges in this particular episode is not detailed in the available synopsis, the presence of the KT Building suggests that the production team incorporated elements of the building’s architecture or surrounding area into the segment design, as is customary when a landmark is designated for an episode.

Throughout the broadcast, the hosts and guests interacted in a manner consistent with the show’s established style, combining light‑hearted banter, teamwork, and competition. The episode concluded with a wrap‑up that recapped the day’s highlights and provided a final tally of any points or outcomes generated by the games, adhering to the series’ standard closing format. The airing of this episode contributed to Running Man’s reputation as one of Korea’s representative variety programs, a status noted in the series overview that describes the show as a notable example of the genre amid a broader decline in variety programming. The episode’s placement in the series chronology, its landmark focus, and its guest roster are all documented in the official episode listing.
