Running Man marked its 10th anniversary on Sunday, becoming SBS’ longest-running variety show. A game programme where celebrities chase each other and snatch their opponents’ name tags, it is one of the most popular South Korean TV shows in Korea as well as abroad.

Kicking off as a segment on the SBS reality show Good Sunday on July 11,2010, Running Man became its own show in March 2017 when Good Sunday came to a close. Running Man ranked among Koreans’ top 10 TV shows from 2013 to July 2019, according to Gallup Korea, and enjoys a wide fandom overseas.
