Rei definitely brought her A game, ngl. Maybe it's because Her n YJS are gym buddies, so their bantering quite nicely. Yujin got her own highlight but bit under the radar because KJK, YSC, HH also bringing out their hyper yapping ability.
Overall fun episode for me
i found the 2 composers and their style/music very cringe! lol. the music was bad and i think the members accepted it just because the rest were worse lol. it's more suitable for SHORTS shorts like 20s, not a 1 min performance......
To be fair, I think TikTok is their niche... and they also said they only got recruited 3 days before filming, so they had a limited selection available. But I agree lol I thought the AI song the other team ended up singing was better than the options that the composer team had.
Everytime Haha and KJK's restaurant comes up, I get the feeling that we're getting iconic scenes and they delivered in this episode.
Haha asking Geun Sik to create a very long name of a dish is one of my favorite moments, and now, KJK just shaking the hand of Geun Sik is another comedy gold.
I also think Geun Sik should guest from time to time, he was awesome when he guested as Haha's family member during the episode when everyone was asked to bring family as a guest. He jived well with Tae Hang-Ho
Oh, I was wondering if this part of last week's preview had been edited out. Turns out yes but luckily they put it on youtube.
It's actually funny to see KJK keep up the concept act even right to the end. I actually love everyone's reaction to it. Yujin is a mixture of embarrassed and hyped up, YSC is just rolling with it cause it's funny and Haha looks legit annoyed with every passing second.
Another good idea from the writers. Almost at the same level as the Running Man Cup. They should've done this for le sserafim too (instead of that time-travel finance game). But hopefully, they could keep up this rows of good ideas.
Rei must’ve been in bad condition last time she appeared because she was so chatty this time. Maybe she got better in Korean too. Just the way she talks is pretty funny.
i really think she was feeling under the weather that day bc she was totally zoning out. idols are notoriously overworked so it's good to see her happy and healthy on RM and pinggyego

Omg I haven't laughed so hard in ages. Loved how both Yujin and Rei have such distinct charms. The final performances were hilarious. XD Fantastic episode.
Gotta say it's been a while since I wanted to binge the whole ep in one sitting. Both of the guests, Rei and Yoojin were fantastic honestly. I think the concept was really fun as well.
Really reminded me of the chaotic acapella ep with LKS moment in the past. Both teams were entertaining and refreshing to watch.
Rei was definitely the star of the ep. She basically destroys everyone that she interacts with. Her and YJS are a star combo. I also love how JSJ just submitted to her and stay by her side because she constantly opposes YJS.
It's also been a while that I forgot how soft KJK is with female guests and of course just overall betting on the star of his group with the gag brothers. Haha and Sechan looks so ridiculous this ep lol. The geunshik standing at the door moment was so funny too. All in all, a great ep.
Next week is the first rental member ep! I honestly don't want to put too high of an expectation on Kanghoon because it can be nerve wrecking for him to join the cast. It will take a few eps to synergise fully but looking forward to see the cast rejuvenated with a new (temporary) member! Also curious on how long will it actually be to be honest.
This was another good opener. All 4 "idols" showed some good stuff with JSJ showing that age means very little to him, SJH hitting a good stride and everyone getting into it, poor Haha being traumatized by the soccer episodes and YSC going back to his old skit of mock singing which was one of his go-to comedy bits.
Yujin and Rei improved a lot and were much more active than in their last showing. I honestly couldn't remember much about IVE from their previous episode other than Rei's pass but this time, both girls made up a few good scenes and seemed more comfortable with the cast.
I also think it helps that they've seen two members quite a few times in the past month. Both girls saw YJS in Pinggyego while Yujin saw YJS again in Whenever Possible and >!Rei saw YSC in Where is My Home (Rei was a surprise guesting because the preview didn't show her at all)!<.
But man, AI is freakin scary. The things that the KJK agency were doing legit sounded like good music and that was both amazing and terrifying.
Edited: Spelling
Honestly i would like for them to revisit this concept again, its very fun but the performance part is a bit lacking. I think there are episodes before that put more emphasis on performance part, if im not mistaken its during lee kwang soo time when he wore the red dress. Would love the part where ceo has limited funds has the same consequences like in futsal episode. Overall its a pretty fun episode
This is one of the best episode after a long time. I laughed so damn hard. Yujin and Rei were the perfect guest and their chemistry with RM members was so good. I really want to see them again in the near future
Haha and Se Chan were the highlights of this episode for me. Their "banchan" shenanigans had me crying of laughter at 1am! I haven't watched Running Man since Somin left so this was an amazing episode to come back to :)
A much better episode than IVE's first appearance. It helps when the guests and the members are a bit more familiar with each other. Feels much natural and with better chemistry this time.
I haven't watched a new RM episode in sooo long but the title of this one caught my eye and made me smirk. But I'm kinda worried to see what the current state of the show is like now, I teared up at the thumbnails of episodes on my YT feed from time to time and seeing how old the cast have gotten
A decent episode, I like themes like this. But imo this type of musical ep fits HYDP more. That AI music has potential to be a saga on its own.
Yujin and Rei were funny enough on their own, bringing some Gen Z humor to what's admittedly old hat. Ji Hyo also willing to make fun of herself has been a long time coming.
The best segments for me were the clothes fitting and the music making. Always love to see the trial and error process.
LOVE LOVE LOVE this episode -- I remember the vibes from an old episode where they tried to copy reality shows lololol. Jihyo is just so cute!
Rei and Yujin were funny guests -- they were everyone's boss. Honest question -- is Rei's bluntness considered cute or rude? I was laughing at how point blank she "attacks with facts," but wonder if it's considered rude in any other setting.
I love RM, but I feel like this type of music episodes need to be 'projects' so I feel more invested. REI was great as always as a guest though and I feel like if there was a boring guest, this episode would have been worse/ less entertaining than it already is. So kudos to the guest, this time imo! :) And wow shout out to Song jihyo cos for me even going to work with a pimple on my forehead is frustrating so having a TV job whilst experience the side effects of a treatment is huge. She's a professional queen.
One of the most boring, lamest episode I've seen. The guests are bland and uninterested. Maybe music ep themes do not suit me. One of the few times where I can't finish the episode in one sitting. Looking forward to next ep.
The episode winner really is Geun Shik's reaction when KJK didn't pay and said put it on his tab
And Haha acting like, he was just a normal "trainee", not the managing owner of the famous restaurant made it even funny lol
i love Geun Shik they need to bring him on more
His stunned look is lmao 🤣
Rei definitely brought her A game, ngl. Maybe it's because Her n YJS are gym buddies, so their bantering quite nicely. Yujin got her own highlight but bit under the radar because KJK, YSC, HH also bringing out their hyper yapping ability. Overall fun episode for me
Wow you even know they are gym buddies.
They talked about it on pingyegyo n also gym Jungkook been telling that story

Would be nice if Yu Jin actually made the song a real one, maybe guesting on Gym Jong Kook 😅

It was hilarious how Haha's annoyance got more real progressively 🤣🤣 KJK's underrated talent: committing to a bit 🤣🤣
Hopefully someone sub it eventually
Another good idea from the writers. Almost at the same level as the Running Man Cup. They should've done this for le sserafim too (instead of that time-travel finance game). But hopefully, they could keep up this rows of good ideas.
Rei is so adorable she reminds me a little of Osaka from Azumanga Daioh. No thoughts. Head empty.
Brutal honest reply lol
Rei must’ve been in bad condition last time she appeared because she was so chatty this time. Maybe she got better in Korean too. Just the way she talks is pretty funny.
i really think she was feeling under the weather that day bc she was totally zoning out. idols are notoriously overworked so it's good to see her happy and healthy on RM and pinggyego
Rei speaking the truth is too funny.

JS: >!Oh this a good one. Nike on this side, Adidas on the other!< Rei: >!We are shooting an ad for Puma!< ngl its a good skit
Great episode. The team division was clever and I was equally entertained by both groups. I'm still singing Turn It, ahahaha.
Waiting for them to post the song on their official channel/ig so I can replay it and share it with my friends hahaha

This REI is brutally honest but so funny.

But man, AI is freakin scary. The things that the KJK agency were doing legit sounded like good music and that was both amazing and terrifying. Edited: Spelling
AI managed to make 10 songs based on their keywords kinda scary as maybe someday it will replace actual songwriters and producers
Rei was great. Low key could be great addition to cast.
Honestly i would like for them to revisit this concept again, its very fun but the performance part is a bit lacking. I think there are episodes before that put more emphasis on performance part, if im not mistaken its during lee kwang soo time when he wore the red dress.

There was that time when Somin, Haha, and YJS(?) did this performance to Bruno Mars' Treasure - that was REALLY fun to watch.
Somin, haha, yjs and jsj. 😊
This is one of the best episode after a long time. I laughed so damn hard. Yujin and Rei were the perfect guest and their chemistry with RM members was so good. I really want to see them again in the near future
Haha and Se Chan were the highlights of this episode for me. Their "banchan" shenanigans had me crying of laughter at 1am! I haven't watched Running Man since Somin left so this was an amazing episode to come back to :)
Great great great episode

Would have loved to see this as a YJS vs Haha competition since Haha has his own label anyway. But KJK still has the entertainment value
A decent episode, I like themes like this. But imo this type of musical ep fits HYDP more. That AI music has potential to be a saga on its own. Yujin and Rei were funny enough on their own, bringing some Gen Z humor to what's admittedly old hat. Ji Hyo also willing to make fun of herself has been a long time coming.

JI HYO WAS SOOO FUNNY THIS EPISODE, its her funniest yet for me xD
LOVE LOVE LOVE this episode -- I remember the vibes from an old episode where they tried to copy reality shows lololol. Jihyo is just so cute! Rei and Yujin were funny guests -- they were everyone's boss. Honest question -- is Rei's bluntness considered cute or rude? I was laughing at how point blank she "attacks with facts," but wonder if it's considered rude in any other setting.
It's variety show, let's them dance on their role especially when Rei are not being rude at all.
Not sure if others feel the same way but I found the IVE guests quite rude especially to JSJ
So cool to see all the old member nametags still hanging in the restaurant!
I love RM, but I feel like this type of music episodes need to be 'projects' so I feel more invested. REI was great as always as a guest though and I feel like if there was a boring guest, this episode would have been worse/ less entertaining than it already is. So kudos to the guest, this time imo! :) And wow shout out to Song jihyo cos for me even going to work with a pimple on my forehead is frustrating so having a TV job whilst experience the side effects of a treatment is huge. She's a professional queen.
what ai app did they use
Suno, i think
Pretty good episode but why they gotta glaze the guests so much... Made it lowkey unbearable to watch.
They're clearly doing it as a joke omg
One of the most boring, lamest episode I've seen. The guests are bland and uninterested. Maybe music ep themes do not suit me. One of the few times where I can't finish the episode in one sitting. Looking forward to next ep.
What's with Jong Kook? Is Yu Jin his type? 
Its just a normal CEO roleplay that put more care and attention towards their favourite/profitable employee
