Broadcaster Yoo Jae-suk experienced bad luck on 'Running Man', getting selected for every punishment from water bucket splashes to bitter melon tea and finally the water barrel.

In the episode aired on the 9th, broadcaster Hong Jin-ho and comedian Kim Ji-yu appeared as guests, competing against the members in a race.

During the opening segment that day, Yoo Jae-suk introduced Kim Ji-yu, who shared her thoughts on her first appearance: "My parents said they wanted me to appear on 'Running Man.' I'm finally here."

Yoo Jae-suk expressed his delight, saying, "Media is diverse these days and has influence and charm, but my parents insist that you must appear on a terrestrial broadcast," adding, "(Kim) Ji-yu is one of the people who appears very frequently in my algorithm."

When Yang Se-chan asked during transit, "How does it feel to be on 'Running Man'?", Kim Ji-yu replied, "It feels like a dream come true." In response, HaHa advised, "Don't stay here; you'll appear on TV the most if you stick next to Senior Yoo Jae-suk."

Kim Ji-yu immediately moved next to Yoo Jae-suk and cheekily asked, "Oh, did you call me, senior?" When a flustered Yoo Jae-suk drew the line by saying, "I didn't call. I didn't call for Ji-yu," Kim Ji-yu retorted, "No, it's okay to speak. I'm truly so grateful. You've said many nice things." Yoo Jae-suk, looking bewildered and saying, "I have never said a single nice thing," elicited laughter.

Before the game began, the members wrote their wishes on wish lanterns. Yoo Jae-suk drew attention by writing on his own lantern, "We pray for everyone's health and safety." Afterward, Yoo Jae-suk's team, which won the game, headed to eat gukbap for lunch. During this process, Yoo Jae-suk said, "The production team needs to eat too. I'll pay," covering the production team's meal with his own money, adding a heartwarming touch.

In the end, in the final race, Team Kim Jong-kook claimed victory, and the punishments awaiting the losing Yoo Jae-suk's team were bitter melon tea, water bucket splashes, and the water barrel.

For the first punishment of water bucket splashes, Yang Se-chan and Yoo Jae-suk were selected. Yoo Jae-suk sighed, "Ah, this is really driving me crazy," and the two performed the punishment by splashing each other with water buckets.

However, Yoo Jae-suk's ordeal did not end there. He was also selected along with Hong Jin-ho in the subsequent bitter melon tea draw. Just before the final water barrel punishment, Ji Ye-eun worried, "Wow, the water barrel is intense," but Yoo Jae-suk earnestly wished, "Someone else needs to come out for this."

However, the protagonist of the final water barrel was also Yang Se-chan and Yoo Jae-suk. In the end, Yoo Jae-suk was selected for all three types of punishments—water bucket splashes, bitter melon tea, and the water barrel—crowning himself the 'Triple Crown of Punishments' for the day. Even amidst continuous bad luck, Yoo Jae-suk's appearance, which did not spare his body while carrying out the punishments, brought big laughs until the very end.
