Choi Daniel has joined the popular show 'Running Man' as a new special member on SBS. He recently participated in a recording session, marking his first shoot as part of the special member lineup. The production team organized a themed race to welcome him, and the cast warmly received his arrival, raising anticipation for enjoyable dynamics and exciting interactions on the show.
Having previously made appearances on 'Running Man' in races like 'Team Kill' with actress Jeon So Min and 'My Perfect Consumption,' Choi Daniel impressed audiences with his relaxed and comedic charm, earning the nickname 'Gwang Daniel' in homage to Lee Kwang Soo.
Director PD Choi Hyung In mentioned that despite Choi Daniel's polished image, he has various weaknesses and is quite talkative, fitting in well with the team right from the start. The viewers can expect to see a more entertaining side of him on future episodes.
The special member system on 'Running Man' is a unique approach in variety shows, with actors like Kang Hoon and Ji Ye Eun having previously participated. Ji Ye Eun has since become an official cast member of the show.
Choi Daniel's debut as a special member will be featured on an upcoming episode of 'Running Man' airing on the 6th of the following month at 6:10 PM KST.
