[EPN Enpinau reporter Go Nari] SBS’s long-running variety show Running Man returns on May 3 with a new “Saekdallaya Flower Road” race.
The episode features Chungha and Jeon Somi, reuniting as members of the project group I.O.I after a decade, who will appear as special guests.
I.O.I, which debuted in 2016 and left a lasting mark on K-pop, has teased a high-profile comeback: their third mini-album, I.O.I: LOOP, is scheduled for release on May 19 — roughly nine years after their debut.
On set, Chungha and Jeon Somi revisited I.O.I hits such as “Pick Me,” “Dream Girls,” and “Very Very Very.” Their impromptu performances drew warm welcomes from the members and quickly commanded the room.
The episode will also lift the curtain on the hidden steps and backstories that led these two, now active in different fields, to reunite.
Chungha quipped that she played a decisive role in arranging the reunion, teasing behind-the-scenes details that helped make the nine-year restart possible.
The show recreates the “Bang Bang” dance that sparked a craze a decade ago and stages a fierce contest for the center spot.
When Chungha broke into an impromptu performance of her solo single “Already 12 O’Clock,” cast members gaped, some saying they thought they were watching a magic trick.
The “Saekdallaya Flower Road” race featuring both artists will air on May 3 at 6:10 p.m. KST.
