[Asia Economy Intern Reporter Park Hee-eun] 'Running Man' star Jo Byeong-gyu confessed that he was expelled for frequently skipping school.

On the episode of SBS's 'Running Man' aired at 5 PM on the 15th, Jo Byeong-gyu and Lim Soo-hyang appeared in the 'Running Man Has a Plan Race' segment, which was set indoors due to the impact of the novel coronavirus (COVID-19).

In the broadcast, Jo Byeong-gyu brought various snacks such as yakgwa, gangnaengi, and eggs for the MT-themed 'Running Man,' which brought laughter. In response, Haha asked Jo Byeong-gyu, "Honestly, you've never been to an MT, right?"

Jo Byeong-gyu started by saying, "I was on a leave of absence from school, so I never got to go to an MT," then confessed, "I skipped school so much that I was expelled recently." Yoo Jae-suk, who was listening beside him, said, "I was asked whether I wanted to be expelled or to drop out, so I chose to drop out."

Jo Byeong-gyu continued, "I was too proud to drop out, so I got expelled," and Haha responded, "You wouldn't understand because you've never been proud," making everyone laugh.

Meanwhile, 'Running Man' airs every Sunday at 5 PM.
