PARK JI HYUN offered laughter and healing through his joyful energy and charms full of humanity.
PARK JI HYUN appeared in the MBC show “I live alone” broadcast on May 8, where he fully enjoyed the “Gorae-run” with the first-generation members of the Fun Run crew named “무도라지”, JUN HYUN MOO, DOWOON, and BAE NARA, following the previous episode.
On this day, the four members seemed exhausted by the appearance of an unexpected uphill course, but PARK JI HYUN maintained the atmosphere until the end with bright energy. In addition to encouraging a tired JUN HYUN MOO, he ran ahead on the steep slope with DOWOON, offering the studio a scene worthy of an emotional youth drama.
While enjoying the “Gorae-run” styled by JUN HYUN MOO, which encompasses the landscapes of the East Sea and trendy spots, the members also tried the Sky Cycle at a height of 21 meters. PARK JI HYUN, who usually has a fear of heights, could not easily bring himself to start, saying: “It looks dangerous.” At this, JUN HYUN MOO and DOWOON were the first to attempt the experience, while PARK JI HYUN and BAE NARA watched them with extremely tense faces.
However, encouraged by the other members, the two finally took on the challenge. PARK JI HYUN sparked laughter by honestly confessing he mostly wanted to avoid the title of a coward:
“I thought to myself that if I didn’t do it, [Hyun Moo hyung] would keep talking about it forever.”
Just before starting, PARK JI HYUN triggered hilarity by checking the safety multiple times: “Sir, I’m really sorry, but could you check just one last time?” While pedaling cautiously with BAE NA RA, he showed constant tension. Regarding PARK JI HYUN, who started a bit later after one final safety check before the turnaround point, BAE NARA joked: “This is the only day I’ve been disappointed by Jihyun.” To which PARK JI HYUN retorted: “At that moment, I wasn’t thinking about you at all, Hyung,” completing their “real friend” chemistry.
After finishing the challenge, the two provided a laugh tinged with pity by showing a “crying finish” close to relief. Afterward, BAE NARA stated: “Thanks to Jihyun, my tension relaxed a lot,” and PARK JI HYUN also showed their warm friendship by illustrating the moment he was able to find courage because they were together.
The four recharged with snacks and enjoyed the romance of the trip by visiting an accessory shop and the observatory together. They finished the “Gorae-run”, a running course in the shape of a whale completed via GPS, leaving behind a sense of pride and special memories. PARK JI HYUN expressed his affection, saying: “If we do a second generation of the Fun Run, I definitely want to be part of it,” before adding humorously at the end: “However, we have to set rules. Let’s not enter a cafe more than twice and a restaurant more than three times. Otherwise, it becomes a Pig-run.”
Furthermore, PARK JI HYUN, who is active in both music and entertainment, will hold the “2026 PARK JI HYEON CONCERT SHOWMANSHIP SEASON 2” in Gwangju on the 9th and 10th (today and tomorrow) and will continue his passionate meetings with fans.
