Jeon So-min Hugs New “Running Man” Member Ji Ye-eun Warmly, Sparks Rivalry
On the January 19th broadcast of the SBS variety show “Running Man”, former regular cast member Jeon So-min returned to the show after 1 year and 2 months.
Here, Jeon So-min warmly hugged Ji Ye-eun, the newest and youngest regular cast member of “Running Man”, who filled her spotted, before saying, “I really wanted to meet you. I’m such a big fan of ‘SNL’.“
(‘SNL’, or ‘SNL Korea’, is a famous comedy show in which Ji Ye-eun regularly appears)
From then on, Jeon So-min’s attention was drawn to Ji Ye-eun, whom she was meeting in person for the first time. In particular, Jeon So-min praised Ji Ye-eun’s beauty, saying, “She’s so cute. She’s so pretty“.
Another highlight of the episode is the comedic tension between Jeon So-min and Ji Ye-eun, as the two compete for the attention of Yang Se-chan.
Specifically, when Yang Se-chan is seen caring for Ji Ye-eun, Jeon So-min becomes visibly flustered, exclaiming, “Do you like her that much?”
This jealousy-fueled exchange draws everyone’s attention, heightening anticipation for the chaotic chemistry of this unexpected “love triangle”.
This marks Jeon So-min’s first guest appearance on “Running Man” since her departure in November 2023, during which she bid farewell in tears during her final recording.
On the other hand, Jeon So-min previously drew attention for revealing her life after leaving “Running Man”. According to the actress, she rarely laughed as hard as she used to and even worked part-time at a café due to financial issues.
