It feels like a Japanese show… ‘Running Man’s’ Kiss Game with Waning Popularity

[My Daily = Reporter Kim Jin-seok] “Shouldn’t have played that game….”

‘Running Man’ featured a game with unclear intentions.

On the broadcast of SBS’s ‘Running Man’ on the 23rd, actors Ahn Eun-jin and Kim Moo-jun from the drama ‘Shouldn’t Have Kissed’ appeared.

In the game, “Shouldn’t Have Kissed,” participants had to guess who had kissed. There was only one opportunity for a kiss. The team required to give a kiss disguised even their breath with hand cream, while the team receiving the kiss scientifically analyzed factors such as lip thickness, texture, wrinkles, and smell to deduce the kisser.

The “Kiss Mafia” was Yang Se-chan, who had to leave a lip mark on someone’s face or arm. To guess who it was, participants took turns planting kisses on each other’s face or arm. When Ji Seok-jin brushed Yang Se-chan’s cheek, Yang jokingly remarked, “Smells like dad.” When it was Ahn Eun-jin’s turn, Yang suddenly drew a line, exclaiming, “Everyone, this is just a game.” Ahn Eun-jin hesitated, asking, “Are you okay with this? Should I really do it? This is embarrassing,” but eventually lightly pressed her lips against Yang Se-chan’s arm.

Although the producers did not specifically demand facial kisses, the members pushed Ahn Eun-jin and Yang Se-chan towards leaving lip marks on the face, which wasn’t a pleasant look. Casual comments could potentially provoke discomfort. Especially when Kim Jong-kook egged Ahn Eun-jin on, saying, “It’s just like in acting, just do it.” It resembled a provocative Japanese adult show.

For a 6 PM Sunday broadcast watched by families, or even beyond that, the format which could cause sexual discomfort to others isn’t welcome. There was a possibility of leaving lip marks on paper to deduce identities, raising questions about why physical contact was encouraged.
