On August 25th, SBS’s “Running Man” official YouTube channel released an unaired clip featuring “2024 Paris Olympics” medalists Oh Sang-wook, Park Sang-won, Kim Min-jong, Kim Ha-yoon and Park Hye-jeong on the show.
In the video, the weightlifting silver medalist Park Hye-jeong took on the “Running Man” members in consecutive thigh wrestling matches.
After effortlessly defeating Haha and Yoo Jae-suk, Park Hye-jeong faced off against Running Man’s fitness enthusiast Kim Jong-kook.
Before the match, Kim Jong-kook confidently remarked, “I’ve done a lot of thigh wrestling before with Yoon Sung-bin, Mo Tae-bum and Kim Gye-ran. I’ll let you see (Park Hye-jeong’s) feelings once.”
As the highly anticipated match began, Kim Jong-kook gave it his all to fend off Park Hye-jeong’s attack.
Though the two seemed evenly matched at first, Kim Jong-kook soon found himself defeated by Park Hye-jeong, admitting, “Wow, she’s the strongest.“
Kim Jong-kook then remarked, “She’s stronger than Kim Gye-ran. Her thighs are so thick that I start off already spread apart.“
After Park Hye-jeong’s victory over Kim Jong-kook, the “Running Man” members suggested she take on judo player Kim Min-jong.
Facing Kim Min-jong, Park Hye-jeong admitted, “I’m scared; judo is intimidating.” When Yoo Jae-suk asked if she was okay with four consecutive matches, she replied with a smile, “It’s fine because if I lose, I have an excuse.”
Their match turned out to be the closest of the day’s thigh wrestling competitions, but Park Hye-jeong ultimately emerged victorious.
Netizens who watched Park Hye-jeong’s thigh wrestling commented, “National athletes are really different; she’s amazing“, “She’s naturally lovely. She’s so cute” and “I really like Kim Jong-kook’s face after losing, as if he had discovered something.”
