Get ready for an action-packed episode of Running Man as Jeon So Min makes a surprising return to the show just one year after bidding farewell!

And that's not all—her return comes just weeks after Jiyeon became a regular member of the cast, making this episode extra special for fans!

On January 19th, the upcoming Running Man episode will feature Jeon So Min alongside her Sorry Not Sorry drama partner, Choi Daniel, plus Olympic stars Park Hye Jung and Kim Ha Yun.

The return of Jeon So Min has fans excited to see the familiar faces and how their unique chemistry will blend with the current cast.

The episode's theme, "Team Kill, I’m Sorry," had the cast split into two teams under the leadership of Yoo Jae Suk.

The challenge's big twist revolves around a penalty vote, where team members must choose who to add to the penalty balloon list.

The twist? Only three names are allowed, and if the votes go over or under three, the whole team, including Yoo Jae Suk, could end up facing the penalty!

Fans are eagerly waiting to see how the members handle trust, strategy, and possible betrayals in this fun-filled race.

With so many exciting personalities coming together, the stakes have never been higher, and Running Man fans are sure to be glued to their screens when the episode airs at 6:10 PM on January 19th!

BTS’s Jin has once again proven his worldwide influence—this time by appearing in a Finnish language textbook!

Jin is featured multiple times in the grammar section of the Finnish Korean language textbook "Bæum." The book uses example sentences like "I like BTS’s Jin" and "I like Jin from BTS," along with pronunciation guides, highlighting his massive global impact.

But that's not all—Jin’s solo success continues to break records! In Hallyu Now, a magazine published by KOFICE (Korea Foundation for International Cultural Exchange), Jin was recognized in the "Top 5 Best Hallyu Content of 2024" as chosen by overseas correspondents.

His pre-release track "I'll Be There" from his solo album "Happy" ranked No. 1 in Germany, while his self-composed hit "Super Tuna" placed No. 5, making him the only artist with two entries in the Top 5!

Since the release of his first solo album "Happy" on November 15, 2023, Jin has been dominating charts worldwide:

• No. 1 on the 2024 Hanteo Annual Album Chart for Soloists
• No. 1 in K-pop solo sales on Billboard Japan 2024
• 3rd highest first-week album sales among all male K-pop soloists in Oricon history

Jin also made history on Oricon’s All-Time Total Sales Ranking, placing 45th overall—one of the top 2 BTS members on the list! In just a month and a half after his solo debut, his massive sales helped BTS rank No. 1 overall!

His title track "Running Wild" also made waves on Spotify Japan’s Daily Top Songs chart, ranking No. 1 on November 21, 2023. It set a record as the most-streamed song by a K-pop artist, including both groups and soloists, and even ranked No. 6 on Global Spotify’s Top Songs chart the same day.

On TikTok, "Running Wild" became a viral hit, surpassing 1.7 million posts using the song in just 10 days! (as of November 25, 2023). This makes it the second most-used song by a Korean male soloist on the platform, right after Shaun’s "Way Back Home."

Jin’s massive popularity stretches far beyond Korea and Japan, with a strong influence in the U.S., Europe, and major global music markets. Whether it’s music charts or even school textbooks, Jin’s impact knows no limits.
