Choi Daniel Joins SBS Running Man as New Cast Member

On April 6, SBS's popular variety show Running Man (런닝맨) will welcome actor Choi Daniel (최다니엘) as its new rental member, marking a fresh chapter for the show as it evolves into a 'New Family.' Running Man was the first Korean variety program to introduce a rental system, initially featuring actor Kang Hoon (강훈) as the first guest member. Now, nearly ten months later, Choi Daniel is stepping in as the latest addition. Previously, he made a memorable appearance on the show, showcasing his quirky personality and leaving fans amused with his unique quotes. This time around, he is expected to bring even more of his charmingly awkward humor, prompting reactions from the cast like, 'What’s up with him?'
This week's episode, themed 'New Family Gagasa,' will feature an extraordinary welcome ceremony for Choi Daniel. In a special gesture, the unofficial 'golden hand' Kim Jong Kook (김종국) will take on the challenge of baking a custom cake just for him. Although he started off feeling rushed and frustrated with the preparation, as the cake came together, Kim Jong Kook reportedly expressed surprise at his own skills, saying, 'Huh? Why am I doing so well?'
Viewers can look forward to seeing the final cake design and the fun-filled 'New Family Gagasa' race with Choi Daniel on Running Man, airing on Sunday, April 6, at 6:10 PM.
