Weight Controversy Surrounds Ji Ye-eun on Running Man
The latest episode of SBS's Running Man, airing on April 6, 2025, has sparked a weight controversy involving cast member Ji Ye-eun. In this episode, the new member Choi Daniel, who possesses unexpected authority, finds himself in a humorous predicament with the other members.
During a recent recording, the cast celebrated Choi Daniel's addition as a temporary member by following a pre-arranged schedule that included an interview with him. Before diving into their activities, the members engaged in a mission that combined physical strength and memorization, where they had to memorize food menu items while performing a backflip.
Known for her eating prowess, Ji Ye-eun showcased her strong memorization skills, but an unexpected discussion about her weight became a focal point. This led to a lively debate among the members, highlighting the comedic tension between Ji Ye-eun and Choi Daniel.
In a surprising twist, the previously adored new member Choi Daniel quickly became the target of the group's frustration during lunch, which featured a dish of sundae soup. Although the menu was chosen based on Choi Daniel's prior interview, the atmosphere shifted dramatically as the members collectively expressed their dissatisfaction, exclaiming, "This isn't right for us!"
The source of their discontent stemmed from Choi Daniel's hidden authority, leaving viewers curious about the nature of this power. The unpredictable 'New Family' race with Choi Daniel will be revealed in the episode airing at 6:10 PM today.
Additionally, Ji Ye-eun addressed the weight controversy on a YouTube show, questioning the validity of the claim that she weighs 69.8 kg. She clarified, "That's not true. If you see me in person, I look slim, right? I'm 171.4 cm tall and weigh less than 60 kg. I'm actually in the low to mid-50 kg range."
