Both sides needed to find the one 'immortal' player and take their shoes, casting upon them an enchantment that will lead the way to the final resting place of the treasure. 

Despite facing 5-to-1 odds, Shinhwa's Eric earned the MVP title as he succeeded in forcing his way to the opposing team's 'immortal' Yoo Jae Suk, ripping his shoe from his body and paving the way to victory.

For the first time in 'Running Man' history, the cast members were completely shut out of the victory -- losing not only the minigames, but the final race as well! Shinhwa's proved that they've still got it when it comes to variety; we hope to see them again soon.
