Lee Kwang Soo stirs up anticipation for his potential return to the buzzworthy variety show “Running Man”.
Recently, “Running Man” enthusiasts are sent into a frenzy at the news of the return of a core member in the series. Specifically, the series’ Wikipedia page updated the upcoming guest information in episode 618 “War Of Coins”. Surprisingly, the information mentioned “Prince of Asia” Lee Kwang Soo who departed from the show in June last year.
Fans have collected evidence in the teaser at the end of episode 617 that can possibly be used to link to his appearance. Accordingly, a figure who looked like Lee Kwang Soo appeared in the frame. Moreover, it seems that the next-to-air episode will focus on the members receiving “cruel punishments” such as wearing heavy makeup or tacky clothing, a typical image of Lee Kwang Soo.
However, some fans are more skeptical to the information as the embedded link does not direct to the actor’s Wikipedia. Moreover, whereas the return of a core cast is definitely newsworthy, there has yet to be any media agency that delivers information on the matter. In addition, Wikipedia is not a reliable source as the information on the platform is subject to change from unreliable users.
Much as there is currently no confirmation from SBS or the actor’s management company, this is not the first time the series welcomed a surprise guest. Former cast member Gary, for example, did not appear in the preview for the previous episode but still came to the set on episode 336 in 2017.
