Jessica Jiyeon to join the cast of “Running Man”



SBS announced today that singer & actress Jessica Jiyeon, who recently wrapped production on the controversial drama The Seven Of Us set to air through March, has been chosen to become a permanent cast member of the hit urban action variety show “Running Man”!


“We’re always on the lookout for people with active lifestyles & bright personalities.” producer Jo Hyo Jin explained “Jessica exudes every quality we seek in participants. We couldn’t be happier to welcome her to the Running Man family!”

The upcoming episode, shot in Incheon, will mark Jessica’s sixth appearance on the show since its start. The singer is considered a MVP player, and has been nicknamed the show’s “warrior dongsaeng" due to her quick thinking and fierce determination in the heat of battle. 

Back in November, a poll on Running Man’s official website had her tied in 1st place along with CN Blue’s Yonghwa over fan favorites Lee Hyori & KARA’s Hara as idols they’d most like to see return full time.

Look out for Jessica’s first episode set to air on February 12th only on SBS!
