[Asia Economy Intern Reporter Hee-eun Park] The cast of SBS Running Man was surprised by the unexpected charm of Bae Jong-ok, who appeared in the 'Decision! Baek' race.

In last week's episode of Running Man aired on the 23rd, actress Bae Jong-ok showcased a surprising charm, switching between a girlish appearance and a charismatic "big sister" persona.

She dominated the Running Man members' momentum and added fun to the broadcast by showing a different side from her initially shy self, shouting at Jeon So-min, "You are XXXX!"

Ji Seok-jin was also overwhelmed by Bae Jong-ok's presence. After getting irritated by the members' teasing with "You guys!", he looked out for Bae Jong-ok by saying, "Except for Jong-ok noona," making everyone laugh.

Additionally, when Bae Jong-ok was suspected by the members during a mission, she perfectly adapted to Running Man by saying, "Don't you know my character? I don't lie. I'm innocent."

At the end of the filming, Bae Jong-ok shared her thoughts, saying, "It was so enjoyable that I wondered if I should switch to being an entertainer."

Meanwhile, the conclusion of the 'Decision! Baek' race featuring Bae Jong-ok and Shin Hye-sun can be seen today (the 1st) at 5 PM on Running Man.
