'Running Man' to return to Manila for 'RUN 2 U' fan meeting

“We will be back,” said Yoo Jae Suk last year at ‘RUNNING MAN: A DECADE OF LAUGHTER’ in Manila, and now the iconic hosts are keeping their promise! After a resoundingly successful event last year, the longest-running South Korean variety show, ‘RUNNING MAN,’ is set to make a triumphant return to Manila for another unforgettable experience. PULP Live World proudly presents RUNNING MAN ‘RUN 2 U’ in Manila, scheduled to take place on July 6, 2024, at the Mall of Asia Arena.

Featuring the beloved hosts Jee Seok Jin, Yoo Jae Suk, Kim Jong Kook, HAHA, Song Ji Hyo, and Yang Se Chan, this event promises to be an extraordinary celebration of the show’s monumental achievement – reaching its recently 700th episode milestone.

For over a decade, RUNNING MAN has been winning over fans everywhere with its exciting games, hilarious jokes, and unbeatable entertainment. Whether they’re racing through city streets in South Korea or exploring far-flung corners of the world, the show has become a global sensation that brings people together, no matter where they’re from.

The accolades garnered by RUNNING MAN speak volumes about its enduring popularity and quality. In 2023, it was honoured as the Program of the Year at the SBS Entertainment Awards, adding to its long list of achievements such as the 2019 StarHub Favorite Variety Show, and the Best Entertainment Program at the 51st Baeksang Arts Awards. The cast and crew’s dedication has also been recognized with awards like the Best Teamwork Award at the 12th SBS Entertainment Awards.

Throughout its run, RUNNING MAN has welcomed a plethora of special guest stars, further enhancing its charm and excitement. From K-Pop sensations like BTS and BLACKPINK to global icons such as Tom Cruise and Manny Pacquiao, the show has consistently delivered memorable moments and surprises.

The Filipino fans, in particular, have embraced RUNNING MAN with open arms even before the show was adapted for television in the Philippines in 2022. Indeed, it’s not just a show, it’s a “run-away” hit! The RUNNING MAN cast can’t wait to “run” back to their Filipino fans, ready to make unforgettable memories together once more. This event is a testament to the strong bond between the show and its dedicated PH Runners, showing the love and admiration shared by hosts and fans alike.
