The Korea Communications Standards Commission issued an official warning to SBS' 'Running Man'.

On July 5, the KCSC announced that they've decided to issue a warning to 'Running Man' for vulgar language. 


On the past May 27th episode, Lee Kwang Soo called AOA's Hyejung a "ggot-bam" (gold digger). The use of the words "shut up" and "retard" also became a problem. 

After an official review, KCSC announced a warning has been issued, and stated, "A content with the potential of harming gender equality cannot be aired, even on a variety show."
