PARK JI HYEON shined as a mood-maker, breathing vitality and support into a new running group thanks to his contagious good mood.
In the MBC show “I live alone” broadcast on May 1, PARK JI HYEON joined the first running course dubbed “고래런” as a founding member of “무도라지”, the first “fun run” group created by JUN HYUN MOO. Alongside JUN HYUN MOO, DOWOON, and BAE NARA, he displayed perfect chemistry from the start.
During the episode, JUN HYUN MOO made the audience laugh by explaining that he chose PARK JI HYEON because he seemed to be “someone who has no intention of running,” while stating his determination to “bring out his desire to run.” In the studio, CODE KUNST highlighted the gentleness of this team by calling them a “trio of kind people,” increasing viewer expectations.
For this first race starting in MUKHO, GANGWON PROVINCE, PARK JI HYEON showed meticulous attention: “I brought cucumbers because they say it’s good when you run.” He also affirmed his status as the “king of cooking” by offering homemade spicy pork and octopus rice balls. The members, won over, praised his culinary talents, naturally making him the person in charge of refreshments and the team’s pillar of support.
PARK JI HYEON also sparked laughter with his witty reactions when JUN HYUN MOO offered personalized T-shirts with hand-drawn portraits. Immediately recognizing his own face, he feigned a complaint: “Honestly, I don’t like it at all.” However, in an interview, he revealed his sincere charm: “To be honest, I loved it. Don’t we make fun of close friends? I felt like he made fun of me well with this drawing, and it made me happy because I felt closer to HYUN-MOO hyung.”
The members then continued their “fun run” through MUKHO, following the trendy concept of the “BUTTER RUN” (running while holding whipped cream), alternating between running, gourmet breaks, and entertainment. PARK JI HYEON‘s bright energy carried the atmosphere, and positive feedback poured in from both the members and the studio, hailing this new running group as a stress-free source of “healing.”
Furthermore, PARK JI HYEON, who is racking up successes in both entertainment and music, will meet his fans in GWANGJU on May 9 and 10 during his solo concert “2026 PARK JI HYUN CONCERT : SHOWMANSHIP SEASON 2”.
