Yoo Jae-seok Apologizes for Vocal Condition on 'Running Man'; Ji Ye-eun's Return Sparks Excitement
On the SBS variety show 'Running Man', Yoo Jae-seok issued an apology to viewers regarding his poor vocal condition.
The episode marked the return of the youngest member, Ji Ye-eun, after approximately three weeks, completing the full cast of 'Running Man'. During a special meal prepared for Ji Ye-eun, Song Ji-hyo affectionately asked, "Is there anything else you want to eat?" showing concern for her.
When Ji Ye-eun mentioned, "Ji-hyo unnie took great care of me and contacted me a lot," Yang Se-chan jokingly remarked, "I often talked with Ji Ye-eun personally. It wasn't that I grew fond of her, but I was worried she might fall for me." He continued with a laugh, "When someone is sick, it's natural to take care of them. Ji Ye-eun would subtly keep the call going, so I didn't call too often, fearing she might develop feelings," which had Ji Ye-eun humorously rejecting the idea with her expression.
HaHa then quipped, "I imagined you two kissing," prompting Yoo Jae-seok to interject, "We're 15 years old here. Don't make such ad-libs."
Meanwhile, Yoo Jae-seok's voice also sounded hoarse, leading Ji Suk-jin to express concern, urging him to "reduce your workload." Yoo Jae-seok apologized, stating, "I shouted too much during recent recordings," and asked for understanding for filming while using a throat lozenge. He explained, "Work has been piling up lately, it's usually like this. This is just a throat candy, so please don't misunderstand." Ji Suk-jin playfully countered, "What do you mean piling up? I work every day," showcasing his envy, while HaHa teased, "Ji Suk-jin's voice is perfectly fine. You should work more," eliciting laughter.
