"Running Man" recently jumpstarted their Asian fan meeting tour with an exciting event for Taiwanese fans. Song Ji Hyo, Lee Kwang Soo, Kim Jong Kook and other cast members even channeled their inner rockers to entertain event attendees.
Song, Kim, Lee, as well as Haha and Ji Suk Jin, temporarily shed their "Running Man" name tags and coordinated uniforms to become Kpop idols. Held on Feb. 10, Friday, at the Taipei World Trade Center, the said Taiwan event served as the first stop of the SBS show's Asian fan meeting tour.
To entertain local fans, the cast prepared several fun activities including a surprise performance that turned the event into a mini-concert, All Kpop reported. The cast members of the SBS variety show even sang a Big Bang song to delight Taiwanese fans.
Wearing colorful outfits and flashy ensembles, Lee donned a metallic checkered yellow jacket and bright red pants combo, while Haha wore a red long-sleeved fur coat and a thick gold chain necklace to show off a rocker vibe. Meanwhile, Song mirrored one of G-Dragon's looks given her navy blue hat with a red feather accent that matched the actress' coat that featured gold shoulder tassels over a black shirt and dark-colored shorts.
In other news, Yoo Jae Suk recently warned unscrupulous individuals to stop using his name for illegal Taiwan promotions. Prior the cast's Taipei fan meeting, the comedian already announced that he will not be joining the event due to a conflict in schedule.
Despite the TV personality's earlier announcement, false rumors about his alleged attendance to the event started to spread. It appears that some individuals even used Yoo's name for promotional activities.
Yoo's agency, FNC Entertainment, issued a statement on Feb. 7, Tuesday, as obtained by Yonhap News, to deny the rumors. The entertainment firm also threatened to file a legal case and already started to collate evidence to support its case.
"Running Man" cast members are slated to travel to Macau, Thailand, Singapore, Malaysia and Hong Kong for their 2017 Asian fan meeting tour. Watch a clip from the SBS show's latest episode below:
