The upcoming Running Man episode will mark Jeon’s first appearance in the show since her departure as a cast member in November 2023. Jeon first joined Running Man in 2017, together with comedian Yang Se-chan. They served as replacements for original member Gary who left the show in 2016.
At the time of Jeon’s departure, her then-agency said that she needed “some time to recharge so that she can show a better side of herself in future activities”.
The production team of Running Man was also supportive of her decision, saying: “After a long discussion, the members and production team decided to respect the opinion of Jeon So-min who expressed her intention to leave.”
