Yoo Jae Suk revealed his supportive role during the challenging period, saying, "At that time, I called Song Ji Hyo and said, 'Have you not seen the articles yet? If you haven't, don't read them. Don't search for them either.'"

Those articles did stimulate me, and I worked harder afterward."

Yoo Jae Suk lightened the mood by sharing a humorous anecdote that followed the controversy, saying, "One day, Song Ji Hyo sent a text message saying, 'Today, I'm planning to do TikTok with Seok Jin oppa. Please watch it carefully.' I asked her why she was announcing it when she could have just done it," evoking laughter from the audience.

Song Ji Hyo's openness about her struggles and the support she received from her colleagues on 'Running Man' has garnered praise from fans and industry peers alike. Her resilience in the face of adversity continues to inspire many.
