Running Man 643 | A Day of Butlers
Weekly Review Time!
Totally wasn't expecting this to be a 2-parter, but I'm so glad it is! Cha Taehyun & Yoo Yeonseok are always a joy to watch whenever they appear on RM, & this time was no exception. Although the concept of "Master & slaves" is often present in RM, I love how CTH is the one in control this time😂 This massive undertaking of handling the whole RM crew is certainly not for the faint-hearted, but we all know how capable CTH is😝
0️⃣1️⃣: There is smth about CTH's laidback demeanor which vastly contrasts the disorder & chaos of the RM members that somehow really works. I almost gagged when he duped HAHA:5013: with the radish-coin switcheroo ever so seamlessly, which rendered the master trickster himself speechless🤣 This was definitely up there in terms of him removing JSJ:4975:'s sling bag LOL. He was totally in control for the entire ep, but seeing him leashed up and crawling on all 4s in the next ep preview is enough to keep me excited about how it is all gna go down.
0️⃣2️⃣: YYS basically stole the show in the final 8 mins of the ep😂 Who knew a simple task of conjuring a qn would cause such a ruckus. He ended up in so much self-doubt that even Hyungin had to be involved in structuring his qn. I also really liked how desperate he was when he ran off to grab the change of ownership & came back at record speed; shocking everyone in the process. Like I said before, guests who are passionate about the eps elevate the eps themselves!
0️⃣3️⃣: I just wanna add how hilarious HAHA:5012: & YSC:4971: were during the butler introduction segment. The way both of them acted as a dog shamelessly was too good. 'nuff said😅 Their variety of wits impresses me to no end!👏
:5016:9️⃣0️⃣1️⃣2️⃣: All in all, E643 was a great watch. CTH by himself already adds enough substance for a good ep, but the addition of YYS makes it even better. I look forward to the next ep! E643 gets a 9/10 from me~
