Episode recap

In episode 721 of Running Man, titled A Retreat with Pirate Roulette, the cast is joined by guests Haewon from NMIXX and Kim Dong Jun of ZE:A. The main premise of the episode centers on a pirate roulette game where the participant who successfully makes the pirate pop earns the privilege to call it a day and go straight home early.

Throughout the retreat race, participants engage in various missions and games to collect knives. These collected knives dictate their access to food, as players are only permitted to eat if they can pop the pirate using the specific amount of knives they have gathered through the competitions. Meanwhile, those who fail to pop the pirate or secure their exit must remain to face a penalty. The episode follows the unfolding events to determine which participants successfully secure an early departure and the opportunity to eat.
