The cast of Running Man shared behind-the-scenes stories from Kim Jong-kook’s recent wedding, revealing just how tightly secured the event was.
In the September 21 broadcast of the SBS variety show, the members gathered only three days after the wedding, and conversation naturally turned to the newlywed. With Kim Jong-kook marrying a non-celebrity bride, the ceremony was conducted under strict security, surprising even his closest friends.
Host Yoo Jae-suk, who served as the MC for the wedding, couldn’t resist teasing the groom: “I’ve never seen a groom who told the guests to stay quiet as they entered. That was a first!” His playful jab highlighted the extraordinary level of privacy Kim Jong-kook enforced for his big day.
The episode also promises to reveal which celebrity stunned everyone with an especially generous congratulatory gift, as well as the story behind a surprise wedding song performance that caught Kim off guard.
Adding to the fun, actor Cha Tae-hyun appeared as a special guest, living up to his reputation as “Kim Jong-kook’s specialist in stirring trouble.” His sharp wit and candid humor kept the conversation lively, ensuring plenty of laughs.
Later, through his personal channel, Kim Jong-kook even shared the official guest list, which included his Running Man castmates Yoo Jae-suk, Ji Suk-jin, HaHa, Song Ji-hyo, Yang Se-chan, and producing director Choi Hyung-in, as well as members of the “’76 Dragon Club” — Cha Tae-hyun, Jang Hyuk, Hong Kyung-min — plus celebrities like Joo Woo-jae, Kang Hoon, Seo Jang-hoon, Jonathan, and Shorry.
The episode’s theme, aptly titled “Kim Jong-kook’s Wedding Celebration Party,” was designed by the production team to mark the once-in-a-lifetime occasion. With long-time friends, candid stories, and endless teasing, fans can look forward to a heartfelt yet hilarious glimpse into the singer’s private wedding day.
