Insane chemistry between our five beloved Running Man members

Outrun by Running Man learns from other well loved variety shows and takes their best elements to create this spin-off series.

The mystery, puzzles, and escape rooms from Busted and Great Escape; the cooking and meal sharing from Stars' Top Recipe at Fun-Staurant; and the making of projects from Hangout With Yoo... But that's not all - long time Korean variety show enjoyers reminiscing on the comedic campfire shenanigans from Family Outing and 2 Days & 1 Night will be completely satisfied. Outrun combines all of these together and executes it - in its own chaotic, Running Man style!

The show brings us back to the early days of the original Running Man series with their unfiltered conversations; the cast are noticeably a lot more at ease, as they are able to be comfortable being themselves with each other and with their guests, making the interactions in this show feel a lot more raw and natural.

A season of episodes created through Haha's mischievous ideas. Episode 1 is a 10 minute meeting between Suk Jin, Haha, Jong Kook and Se Chan which details and gives a preview of what's to come. Give this first episode a watch to determine whether they are topics you'd like to see, because that's exactly what you'll get - and more!

(The rest of this review may contain spoilers.)

Do you remember the iconic moment in early Running Man with Ace Ji Hyo and Tiger Jong Kook wearing their security outfits in the airport, hunting for their prey with the bell on their leg? The fear, the betrayal and the scheming? A full length episode of the nostalgic, old-time name-tag-ripping game returns, capturing the authentic essence that early RM had.

Those familiar with our well-loved, silly-king: Kim Jong Min will have a blast watching this as Outrun deliberately tackles the cast from 2D1N, the RM rival which has always shared the same time slot for the past 11 years! Can you imagine him in a fight against the likes of Haha?!

A bonus if you've watched Ji Hyo's The Witch's Diner series! It doesn't quite turn out as you'd expect it to when the customers arriving are the three Troublemakers, giving the Witch a headache instead..!

Fans turning to the show expecting it to out-perform the original variety shows it parodies will be disappointed; the sports games were dull, and the puzzles were bland without much complications. Instead, it is better to enjoy this series light-heartedly with the mindset of watching a gathering of friends; as they wholesomely walk down memory lane together with the RM PDs, revisit old driving missions with the cast back in the streets of Itaewon and Gwangjang Market, or get up to no good in a board game night that guarantees the players to all become drunk!
Some episodes felt like a drag to finish, while the good ones (my personal favourites: episodes 3, 8, 11-14) could easily compete to become some of the best RM episodes; the final episode was a Running Man masterpiece.

This is a Fun show. I love it when the RM family gets together for random activities and banter. The drinking scene was fun and quite refreshing since we dont get to see that side of variet shows very often. Honestly I would watch them just sit around and share random stories if there was a show. Outrun by running man showsnthat even though they are a bit older, nobody can do it as good as they can. I hope that this show will be picked up for another season or two. Bring on more girl groups and up and coming idols so we can see what they have in them. #9012 #7012

Always the best RUNNING MAN /OUTRUN

I love this show..But i really love when every of running man member join together..But its okay,i will always support NO 1 and the best variety show ever 🤍
I was so suprise when some people say RUNNINGMAN/OUTRUN only uses idols for famous 😅,Maybe many people forget that runningman or any member of running man doesn’t need to use anyone,Runningman is really Strong,Famous and still have a lot of supporters in entire world from beginning until now.
Runningman is very famous,and also RM introduced a lot of korean celebrities and korean Food before this.
Celebrities who is not famous became famous because of runningman.Thank you so much! Will always support OUTRUN BY RUNNINGMAN🤍

Boring, out of ideas, bad plot

Ep2. For the whole episode it's just members chasing 10 person from new boy groups, less talking and interaction with guess for the whole episode with the guest.
Ep3 members stucked in witch house for the whole episode solving boring puzzles, no excitement at all, and no ending closure. So lame, they failed to solve puzzle in the given time, no punishment no closure, end with" their soul took by the witch" boom ended.
Basically they drag the usual 15mins game in runningman till 45mins.............,........
