1. [+297 / -32] It's real for So Min-ie ㅋㅋ They're both cute
↪ [+42 / -7] To be honest, if it was a couple for a variety show, they can just do it on the show but the fact that So Min does that during their private conversations - Se Chan-ah ㅋㅋㅋ from personal experience, the possibility of it being real is 51%? ㅋㅋ

1. [+1096 / -18] How many years are they going to drink that goddamn kkanari? When I was in my third year of middle school, I laughed out loud after watching them drink it for the first time but I'm turning 30 next year

 2. [+1040 / -24] The kkanari on '1N2D' is too sadistic

 3. [+796 / -1] On the last season with Defconn too and with this season it's Din Din - you can see their will to fighting with their bodies for the show so personally, I like them ㅎㅎ but of course, I wish they would stop them from drinking kkanari in one shot since it's not good for their health... I'm sick of it 

 4. [+42 / -0] Isn't it now time to let go of kkanari ㅜ...

 4. [+554 / -16] Seung Gi must be consistently working out ㅜㅜㅜㅜ But he's also good at shooting, he's a fraud character (t/n: 사기캐 stands for fraud character and it's used when a character is a lot better/have better skills than they appear to be/have)

Nationwide ratings for episode 499 that aired on April 19, 2020: 6.5% (cr. Naver TV)

t/n: This game was so funny omg 

1. [+1414 / -12] Ah ㅋㅋㅋ I really laughed even though it was nothing ㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅌㅌㅌㅋㅋㅋㅌㅌㅌㅌㅌㅌㅌ It was hella funny ㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅌ

2. [+921 / -10] Ah seriously it was so funny ㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋ

3. [+869 / -16] Do Hyun kept this game alive ㅋㅋㅋ

4. [+859 / -18] Even Lee Do Hyun's variety show skills ㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋ 🤣

5. [+645 / -17] Chung Myung ㅠㅠ It was funny

6. [+606 / -9] But it seems like Se Chan oppa is dating someone ㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋ ㅠㅠㅠㅠㅠㅠㅠ  


1. [+656 / -31] I think she developed a panic disorder or something like that. She might even leave 'Running Man'. There were so many threatening hate commenters 

2. [+625 / -25] She's physically hurt but I think she also got depressed... I hope we can see her bright self again~

3. [+580 / -26] Jeon So Min, the flower and dark horse of 'Running Man', hurry and get better and I hope you return as your bright self~~ Jeon So Min, stay strong!

4. [+69 / -8] I'm not sure about Yang Se Chan but I think it was really good that Jeon So Min joined 'Running Man'. Although she's an actress, she doesn't worry about ruining herself (t/n: not being afraid of getting down and dirty with the games) and she's doing a good job

5. [+61 / -8] Jeon So Min saved 'Running Man'. What's the reason that the hate commenters are leaving hate comments? Are they jealous?
Original Source (SBS via Naver TV): "He won't get a divorce, his wife will run away" Tak Jae Hoon realistically delivers Kim Jong Kook's divorce scenario to him

 Nationwide ratings for episode 186 that aired on April 19, 2020: 13.3% (cr. Naver TV)

t/n: The six of them (Lee Sang Min, Tak Jae Hoon, Lim Won Hee, Park Soo Hong, Kim Jong Kook, and Kim Hee Chul) were having a meal together when Kim Hee Chul asked the divorced side (Lee Sang Min, Tak Jae Hoon, and Lim Won Hee) how do they (divorced team) think the unmarried side (Park Soo Hong, Kim Jong Kook, and Kim Hee Chul) will get a divorce.  

 Tak Jae Hoon said that Kim Hee Chul will live all lovey dovey and then get a divorce over nothing. For Kim Jong Kook, he noted that Kim Jong Kook is a trustworthy person and takes care of himself well (e.g. works out) and will live lovey dovey but he's also the conservative type. He and his wife will live well together but then she ends up not being able to endure that so he doesn't get a divorce but his wife ends up running away LOL his future wife goes missing and he tries to look for her but eventually files for divorce.

 1. [+972 / -30] Tak Jae Hoon's joke ㅋㅋㅋㅋ it was awesome ㅋㅋㅋㅋ I laughed out loud ㅋㅋ But I think the thing the three of them said is all true ㅋㅋㅋㅋ

 2. [+731 / -35] ㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋ I really understood why Tak Jae Hoon received a daesang ㅋㅋ I thought my stomach was going to rip when I was laughing ㅋ The king of just talking, Tak-sama ㅋㅋ

 3. [+626 / -18] I don't usually watch 'My Ugly Duckling' but I hella laughed because of Tak Jae Hoon ㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋ

 4. [+581 / -18] He said Kim Jong Kook's not going to get a divorce but the wife is going to run away ㅋㅋㅋㅋ With Kim Jong Kook's 10 year experience from 'Running Man', he's going to catch her quickly ㅎㅎㅎ Tak Jae Hoon properly made a joke today. ㅎㅎㅎ

 5. [+488 / -15] Tak Jae Hoon is flying around ㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋ      

 6. [+468 / -13] ㅋㅋㅋㅋ Everything was funny but this was the funniest!! He said she's going to run away ㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋ 

Original Source (SBS via Naver TV): 'Cha Eun Woo vs. Lee Seung Gi' Which member will become the new daily anchor for the live news broadcast?

 Nationwide ratings for episode 116 that aired on April 19, 2020: 5.6% (cr. Naver TV)

 1. [+696 / -19] Lee Seung Gi is so good. His pronunciation and vocalization is good so it's stable

 2. [+560 / -16] But Lee Seung Gi is really good, when you're listening to his report, it felt comfortable and stable

 3. [+508 / -15] If you said that Seung Gi was an announcer, I would believe it, he's so good

 4. [+420 / -15] As expected, stable Lee Seung Gi is the best, you did a good job Seung Gi~~~~

 5. [+406 / -13] Lee Seung Gi is really good. The tone when he speaks and the vocalization makes the listener feel comfortable

[Sunday Variety Roundup] My Ugly Duckling, Superman is Back, Running Man

      , , , ,     Comments

Nationwide ratings for episode 174 that aired on January 26: Ratings haven't been released yet! I'll update the post once it's out! (cr. Naver TV)

t/n: Seo Jang Hoon asked Lee Sung Min, how it was to attend the Cannes Film Festival with his wife for the film 'The Spy Gone North'. Lee Sung Min revealed that his wife enjoyed it, "At that festival, if you want to walk on the red carpet, you have to adhere to the dress code. My wife usually doesn't wear skirts but she prepared her outfits for a week. She really liked it when she entered the festival wearing her clothes. But she said she actually fell asleep when she was watching the movie." Shin Dong Yeob added about Lee Sung Min that, "He doesn't know if it's because she was constantly his support when they were struggling that he still feels like he committed a crime when he goes back home." Lee Sung Min added, "I don't understand why I become smaller when I go back home. Last year during the Baeksang Arts Awards, I was all dressed up and went back home after winning an award but my wife told me to go and throw out the trash."

1. [+2462 / -27] He said it as a joke but to be honest, his wife is wise. Whether her husband is doing successful or struggling, she treats him the same. So it seems like Lee Sung Min is also easygoing like he was in the past. 

2. [+751 / -6] It's not easy to be consistent. ㅋ. There's a sense of familiarity because the way his family is easygoing isn't so different from ours.

3. [+775 / -40] You gotta do what you gotta do

4. [+335 / -11]  A cool actor-nim where you can see the humanity in him

5. [+305 / -18] It's cute... My brother, even when he's home and he doesn't do anything else, he's hella good at throwing away the trash..  
Original Source (OSEN via Naver): 'Superman is Back' Na Eun x Gun Hoo, leaves the show after one year and five months, "Let's see each other again"...Gary's son Kang Ha Oh makes their appearance as the new family

 Nationwide ratings for episode 314 that aired on January 26: Ratings haven't been released yet! I'll update the post once it's out! (cr. Naver TV)

 1. [+3619 / -144] No but he got secretly married, secretly had a kid but why is he now coming out and revealing his kid..? Seriously, I was a fan of him during 'Running Man' but why is he coming out...
↪ [+410 / -11] He's the case where he was doing well and then became unlikable...
↪ [+691 / -7] That's what I'm saying - people should be careful with the way they speak, he said it himself for people to stop being interested in him but what is he doing now with his kid
↪ [+247 / -5] He must now need money

2. [+2512 / -41] Let's see each other again, Na Eun and Gun Hoo ㅠㅠㅠㅠㅠ

 3. [+1376 / -119] Looks like the ratings are going to drop. What am I going to do when I want to see Gun Hoo~

 4. [+724 / -24] Na Eun, Gun Hoo - let's see each other again. Grow up healthy and see you again ㅠㅠ

 5. [+707 / -30] I feel like the kids that come out on 'Superman is Back' is all especially nice... William, Bentley, Na Eun, Gun Hoo, Jamjam, and even Ggom Ggom 💛 I get healed every weekend ㅜㅜ Na Eun, Gun Hoo - take care of your younger sibling and let's meet again ☺️💛

 6. [+650 / -12] Moon Hee Jun was like this and so was Gary but they said not to show interest in their marriage and childbirth because it's their private life but they come out, it's funny ㅡㅡ
Original Source (tenasia via Naver): 'Running Man' snake Haha, wins → Wraps up Lunar New Year race in a warmhearted way after distributing the prize

 1. [+145 / -5] It was daebak when Yoo Jae Suk secretly stole the bags ㅋㅋ

 2. [+140 / -1] Today's ending of Running Man was the most heartwarming

 3. [+73 / -4] Today's episode was so fun and I really liked the ending.. I can see Haha coming out of the darkness ㅎㅎㅎ

 4. [+51 / -6] At the ending, with the start of Haha, it was totally heartwarming ㅎㅎ

 5. [+38 / -1] It's impossible for them to do the name tag game like the past because of their health conditions but the show is fun lately ㅋ

 Nationwide ratings for episode 157 that aired on September 22: 17.3% (cr. Naver TV)

 1. [+1119, -51] Realistically, you have to see it as him not being able to come out because no one else is requesting for him except for musicals
↪ [+138, -19] He's one of the people I'm happy to see not come out these days 
↪ [+70, -4] I hella hated seeing him act like he's a top star during 'Infinite Challenge' ㅋㅋ I feel satisfied that he's not coming out on TV ㅋㅋ

 2. [+636, -35] Seeing how he can't come out on TV after 'Infinite Challenge' ended, that explains everything. The person who was the biggest bubble was Jun Ha hyung

 3. [+487, -28] To be honest, Jung Jun Ha kept on working using his personal connections...

 4. [+464, -21] Yoo Jae Suk is really saving many people 

 5. [+238, -12] Let's not mention pervert YouTubers on TV...

4. [+334, -54] Did you have nothing else to steal that you steal a ramyun recipe ㅋ *sigh* tsk tsk

5. [+266, -36] Are they messing with Chenle's ramyun recipe. *sigh* pathetic

6. [+196, -14] Lee Sang Min that b*stard - all the food he made on 'My Ugly Duckling' is like that ㅋㅋ He talks as if he's the first one to make it like that but actually, he steals from someone else *sigh* why does he live like that

      , , , , , ,     Comments

Nationwide ratings for episode 194 that aired on August 24: 5.1% (cr. Naver TV)

1. [+1924, -10] The fact that he was born in 1985 ㄷㄷ

2. [+1273, -13] He's younger than Sandara Park ㄷㄷ He looks old but his years of experience that comes out from his way of speaking ㄷㄷ

3. [+926, -9] Crazy, I thought of course he was in his 40s ㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋ

4. [+369, -9] ㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋ The fact that he's younger than Min Kyung Hoon

5. [+335, -36] He has a good face for when he ages more although he currently looks older 

Nationwide ratings for episode 83 that aired on August 25: 5.6% (cr. Naver TV)

1. [+369, -33] ㅋㅋ Today's episode was really funny ㅋㅋㅋㅋ The perilla leaf incident ㅋㅋ Seung Gi oppa is so good at being the spokesperson for master No Sa Yeon-nim's perspective ㅋㅋ (t/n: They went to a Korean BBQ restaurant and Lee Moo Song revealed that he and No Sa Yeon once had a huge argument because of perilla leaves. They went to a restaurant with a female coworker and they were served pickled perilla leaf at the restaurant and from personal experience, perilla leaves are really thin and they're really hard to pick up with chopsticks when they're pickled and Lee Moo Song said he noticed the coworker having difficulty picking up the perilla leaf so he pressed down on it so she can pick it up with her chopsticks and No Sa Yeon got mad at him over that. I remember them talking about this on another show and people were saying that from a woman's perspective, it can be hurtful because your husband is taking care of another woman LOL IDK I thought it was funny)

2. [+246, -21] That freakin perilla leaf ㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋ

3. [+167, -36] I totally relate with her! When I went on my honeymoon with my husband, my husband held down the perilla leaf for a wife of another newlywed couple so we had a huge fight when we returned to the hotel and almost divorced.. ㅋ

4. [+145, -17] When you talk about No Sa Yeon, she was legendary when she was active with her perfect comedy collab with Joo Byung Jin on 'Sunday Night' ㅋㅋ

5. [+111, -32] Today's episode was also hella fun, I kept on laughing 

Original Source (Sports Chosun via Naver): "Is that living like a celebrity?"...Kim Hee Chul and even his mother has a controversy, Universe Star's easygoing daily life

 Nationwide ratings for episode 153 that aired on August 25: 18.1% (cr. Naver TV)

 1. [+4969, -156] Sigh... To the parents of sons who want their sons to quickly get married because they skip breakfast~ You don't get married so that your son can get taken care of. They need to become a person who can take care of themselves and people who have the capability of taking care of others get married to take care of each other.. Please stop using these reasons to say that your sons need to quickly get married. You really seem like a clueless adult.... 
↪ [+119, -478] He's a famous celebrity and he has a lot of money, if the girl isn't even going to make breakfast for him then doesn't that mean she's freeloading off of him? With marriage, I think that, at times, you fill things that you each lack and you're considerate of one another but you seem like an old loser who didn't get married, an old maid ㅋㅋ
↳↳ [+527, -18] A woman can have a lot of money and she can have her own career.. What are you talking about, asking an office worker who's busy going off to work in the mornings to make breakfast, sigh.. Does a woman have to give up her career or make breakfast while going to work if Kim Hee Chul is rich? 
↳↳ [+521, -14] @ishe (t/n: the first reply commenter) must not be married. If you need someone to receive money and make food then it's right to hire a housekeeper. Also, the person who should make breakfast for your son and take care of him is you, mother. Don't think about making another family's precious daughter into housekeeper and instead, either go visit your son's apartment or live with him again to take care of his meals.

 2. [+2195, -57] If he gets married, will your son who doesn't eat breakfast begin to eat breakfast? Who's going to make that breakfast?

 3. [+1828, -25] I'm hella jealous that he gets to make money off of fooling around like that because it's considered filming

 4. [+684, -12] What does it mean to live like a celebrity?

 5. [+533, -14] He skips meals → I wish he'll get married. Why is it that our nation's mothers come to that conclusion even if our generation changes this much? ㅡ.ㅡ
Original Source (Herald POP via Naver): 'Running Man' Park Jung Min x Choi Yoo Hwa x Lim Ji Yeon makes their appearance...Lee Kwangsoo carries out whipped cream punishment

 Nationwide ratings for episode 465 that aired on August 25: 6.4% (cr. Naver TV)

1. [+140, -6] The character game was so funny ㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋ

 2. [+61, -6] ㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋ Seriously, today's episode was so funny ㅋㅋㅋ daebak

 3. [+56, -2] Sticky rice shortie ㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋ (t/n: I didn't watch the episode so I'm going to write the literal translation LOL)

 4. [+43, -5] Actor Park Jung Min-nim, succeed more! 

 5. [+23, -0] Ah today's episode was hella funny ㅋㅋㅋ They never met Jae Suk but they made a guest appearance on 'Running Man'???       
This is my one thousandth post on the blog!!!
Wow.... I can't believe we reached 1000 ㅠㅠ
I thought it would be good to make the one thousandth post a weekend variety roundup post since I haven't posted a variety roundup in a while ㅠㅠ

REGARDING RUNNING MAN
Many of y'all have been asking for Running Man posts - I usually translate things that are trending on the front page of Naver. For example, articles for 'I Live Alone' trend on the front page ranking for hours after the episode airs on Friday and tbh, Running Man hasn't been trending on the front page for a while and when I do go hunt for Running Man-related articles, the comments usually have less than 100 upvotes.... For example, for this post, the first and second comment on the Running Man article is made by the same user. 
It's kinda hard to keep track of when there's not a lot of activity ㅠㅠ
If y'all want to send me articles of Running Man episodes then I'll go ahead and translate it but in my experience, it's been hard finding popular, trending RM articles and if I do find articles, there's always a lack of comments and upvotes.

Just wanted to clear it up for y'all since a lot of people have been asking lately.
