First, the positioning of the program is clear
Another innovation of this positioning is to break the relationship between the usual hosts and guests. In most Korean variety shows, most of the invited guests are popular celebrities who use the show as a means of publicity and try to show their excellence in the program. The host's job is to publicize and promote the guest in the course of the program. Guests and hosts are not equal in a sense. On the other hand, during the program "Running Man", the guests and the hosts have a completely equal relationship. In addition to the beginning of the host to introduce the guest appearance, the entire program process of the guest and the role of the host can be swapped at any time. As a participant in the game, the host receives the same attention as the guest, and the guest can also act as the host during the game to promote the development of the program. For example, in the game of "tearing name tags", the host and guests are divided into two teams, competing with each other to tear the name tags attached behind each other's members. In this process, the host will not think too much about the image of the guests, but all strive to tear off each other's name tags to win the game. This is one of the major attractions of the program.
Second, the host successfully role
"Running Man" was originally co-hosted by Liu Jae-seok, HAHA, Ji Shi Zhen, Lee Kwang-soo, Kim Jong-guk, Song Ji Hyo, Gary, and then Gary quit the show because he wanted to stick to his dream of music, and the original 7012 was disbanded. Unlike many other variety shows, it is a program that can bring joy to viewers even with the personal charms of the regular members alone. This, "Run Bar Brothers" is also a fixed host resident, although small changes, but to Deng Chao as the head of the several is still a veteran.
In the production team's setup, the experienced, humorous, and affable Yoo Jae-seok took the role of controlling the big picture, and in one episode he demonstrated his remarkable ability to run away, and has since been dubbed "Yoo Ruth Willis" (from "Running Brothers"). Yoo Jae Suk has been known as "Yoo Ruth Willis" (from the series Bruce Willis), and also for his peculiar behavior. He was also named president of the dance club and nicknamed "Yoo Hyuk" (Yoo Jae Suk's own name, as he prefers to go by a single name) because of his strange and hilarious dances.) Deng Chao's role is a bit like that of Yoo Jae Suk's, although his salary is indeed many times higher than Yoo Jae Suk's, but he is also in control of the overall situation. Lee Chen is labeled as the "Big Black Bull" on the show, and Kim Jong Kook is the "Tiger", so I wonder who will be better? The giraffe, Lee Kwang-soo, has made you laugh out loud?
Third, skillfully integrated into the national culture.
As a variety show, in addition to entertaining the audience, the program writers and directors obviously gave Running Man a higher expectation of spreading Korean culture. This purpose is evident in the filming schedule of each episode.
Each episode of Running Man is centered around a landmark that is highly representative of Korean culture. For example, Yeongdeungpo Times Square, Suwon City World Cup Stadium, National Gwacheon Science Center, Sejong Cultural Center, N Seoul Tower, etc., all of these places have a mixture of modern and traditional culture. In addition to the fun of playing games, these places show the strong cultural flavor of the buildings themselves. In this regard, China has done a good job of incorporating its own regional characteristics, such as Xi'an, Shaanxi Province, and West Lake, Hangzhou, with the theme of Chinese culture, to enhance the audience's attention to history.
Fourth, the format of the program is simple, and foreign audiences can fully understand the content of the program without relying on subtitles.
Subtitles are an important part of variety shows, and unlike reality shows like One Day, Two Nights and Infinite Challenge, Running Man is a simple program that focuses on the main games of "Tear the Name Tag" and "Chase the Battle". So even foreigners who don't speak Korean can understand the content, and the subtitles are not difficult to translate.
Politically sensitive issues aside, South Korean entertainment programs have a high degree of influence, and although many of the country's variety shows have been taken off the air, it's undeniable that what China needs to do is not just imitate them, but find ways to innovate and create their own programs with their own national characteristics. What the choreographer also wanted to say is that programs, or all media, need to keep up with the development of society and the current economic, political and social situation. We need to be more aware of the needs of the audience, and if we can grasp this information, I believe that China can make better programs.
