Judo national team member Kim Min-jong simultaneously subdued Kim Jong-kook and Lee Hyun-joong with his overwhelming superhuman strength.

The episode of the SBS variety show 'Running Man' broadcast on the 1st featured a "Medal Madness" race, with guests including judoka Kim Min-jong, a medalist at the 2026 Aichi-Nagoya Asian Games, and basketball player Lee Hyun-joong.

On this day, the members set out to find food prepared by the two national team athletes in the Seoul Nodul Island area. Kim Min-jong prepared kimchi jjigae (kimchi stew) generously loaded with meat, while Lee Hyun-joong prepared soy sauce egg rice with almost no seasoning, showcasing contrasting diets.

As the members' fortunes diverged according to the two athletes' diets, a full-fledged mission began to secure the right to choose the lunch menu.

First, the members attempted "Quiz Basketball," which combined basketball and quizzes. The format required players to score a basket and then answer a question correctly to earn points.

During this process, it was revealed that Lee Hyun-joong had once ranked 8th in his entire school during his student days, drawing attention. However, contrary to the members' expectations, Lee Hyun-joong repeatedly gave bizarre wrong answers, eliciting laughter.

On the other hand, judoka Kim Min-jong stood out by displaying unexpected basketball skills. In response, Lee Hyun-joong, whose competitive spirit was ignited, encouraged his teammates to "aim for the opponent's face or vital spots," even urging fouls, which added to the humor.

Next, the members took on the "I'll Bring It" mission, which required them to retrieve items while overcoming interference from the opposing team.

Kim Min-jong showcased his extraordinary strength by easily moving two sandbag boxes weighing 20 kg each. In particular, he dragged both Lee Hyun-joong and Kim Jong-kook, who were holding onto rubber bands and resisting, at once, astonishing the members.

Yang Se-chan, watching this, exclaimed, "He's a dump truck!" while Yoo Jae-suk joked, "It's been a while since I've seen Jong-kook being dragged," teasing Kim Jong-kook to add more laughter.

Subsequently, the members faced a situation where they had to choose their lunch menu between Kim Min-jong's seasonal food and Lee Hyun-joong's NBA diet. Members who showed curiosity about Lee Hyun-joong's diet chose the NBA menu, but they reacted with surprise when salad appeared.

In this race, a gold medal containing pure gold was awarded to the member who solved the final secret, leading to intense competition.
