However, Heo Ji Woong said, "It is difficult for the audience to become immersed in 'Running Man' in the traditional sense."  Park Ji Yoon said, "For some reason, it is too difficult for me to watch them run so diligently."

Heechul likewise added, "Truthfully, when I watch 'Running Man' once in a while, there are a lot of immature moments . . . It makes me go, 'What is that?'  But I see elementary school kids chuckling as they watch it."

Kim Gu Ra said, "Seeing as how 'Running Man' has a solid teenage fandom, it is rather easy for them to get guest appearances . . . Whether they are idols, actors, or sports athletes, those kinds of stars appear because they need to be publicized as trends to those in their teens."
