Jeon So Min is back on Running Man, and fans can’t stop laughing at her amazing comedic skills. But while her variety show return is a hit, her new drama is struggling to gain attention.

On January 19, Jeon So Min joined the SBS variety show Running Man as a guest alongside actor Choi Daniel, her co-star from the KBS Joy drama Sorry Not Sorry.

Fans were thrilled to see her return after leaving the show in November 2023, following six and a half years as a regular cast member.

Despite being away from Running Man for over a year, Jeon So Min showed she hasn’t lost her touch. Her jokes and quick wit had everyone in stitches.

She even brought back her playful love-line with Yang Se Chan, teasing him about his kindness toward Ji Ye Eun, the new youngest member of the cast. “Do you like her that much? I saw you being so nice to her on TV”, she joked, adding, “Are you in love with her?”

In one hilarious moment, Jeon So Min joined Ji Ye Eun for a game involving a seated row exercise machine.

As Ji Ye Eun kept giving wrong answers and getting whipped cream sprayed on her, Jeon So Min couldn’t help but joke, “Why are you so weak?” Her quick thinking and funny antics kept the laughs coming.

Thanks to Jeon So Min’s return, Running Man recorded strong ratings, securing a 2.4% viewership in the key 20-49 demographic and peaking at 6.4% overall, according to Nielsen Korea. It’s still the top variety show in its time slot!

Meanwhile, Jeon So Min is also starring in the KBS Joy drama Sorry Not Sorry, where she plays Ji Song, a divorced woman navigating life after her fiancé unexpectedly leaves her.

At a press event, she shared, “I wanted this drama to show the familiar side of me that fans know from variety shows. It’s also a chance for people who haven’t seen my acting to discover another side of me.”

However, the drama has struggled to find viewers, with ratings ranging from 0.3% to 0.5% after six episodes. Fans think the low numbers might be due to the niche channel and its weekly schedule.

While her variety show skills continue to shine, many hope that Jeon So Min’s acting projects will also get the recognition they deserve.

With her undeniable charm and talent, it might just be a matter of time before her acting career hits the same high notes as her Running Man appearances.

On January 24, Lee Si Young shared a photo on her Instagram story with the caption, “When I first got this as a gift, I thought, ‘What will I use this for?’ But now, it’s my favorite lunchbox.”

The actress is known for her luxurious lifestyle. She previously lived in a 3-billion-won luxury apartment in Samseong-dong, Gangnam. However, in October 2023, she made a big move to Songdo, Incheon, reportedly to focus on her son’s education.

Her son, Jung Yoon, attends Chadwick International School, one of Korea’s most prestigious and expensive schools, known for its strict admission process and sky-high tuition fees. Reports suggest that Lee Si Young relocated to Songdo specifically to support her son’s education.

Fans have been amazed by her dedication as a mother and her luxurious lifestyle, with comments flooding social media saying, “Even her lunchbox is fancy!” and “She’s living a dream life!”
