Actor Kim Jong-kook attends the 3rd Annual DramaFever Awards at The Hudson Theatre on February 5, 2015 in New York City.

Feels like "Running Man" has found itself a new Monday Couple. During a recent episode of the SBS variety show, it was revealed that Kim Jong Kook and Song Ji Hyo is a match made in heaven.

On the Jan. 1 episode of "Running Man," the cast members were visited by two psychic readers; a traditional Korean (saju) fortuneteller and a tarot card reader. The fortuneteller started predicting what this new year had in store for each member and when Kim's turn arrived, the fortuneteller advised him to follow Song as a life partner if he wanted to be strong financially and see positive changes in 2017.

"Your marriage compatibility is 85 to 90 out of 100," one of the fortunetellers was quoted as saying. Initially, it took the remaining cast members by surprise but later started teasing the pair, asking them to become a couple get and tie the knot with each other.

Haha also pointed out that Song was very rich and marrying her would improve Kim's financial situation. This was in line with the fortuneteller's earlier prediction that Kim would be financially strong if he chose Song as a life partner.

Song and Gary Kang were the show's Monday Couple before the former cast member decided to leave the show last year order to focus on his music career, as Soompi previously reported. Lee Kwang Soo also commented saying, "Gary would be sad if he saw this."

To the delight of Spartace shippers, the tarot card reader's prediction also leaned in favor of a Kim-Song match-up. The tarot cards revealed that Song would be Kim's ideal partner. However, when Song's turn arrived, the cards suggested that Song and Lee would be a perfect pairing.

Kim and Song were asked to leave "Running Man" in December 2016 by the show's producers without notice. The controversy sparked backlash from fans, after which both cast members were brought back, but it was later decided to end the show in February, according to All Kpop.
