Lee Kwang Soo is gifted by the ‘God of Variety’ on ‘Running Man’

 
Lee Kwang Soo cemented his reputation as the ‘Unluckiest Person Alive’ on the latest episode of ‘Running Man‘.
 
On their way to the final mission, ‘superpower karaoke’, the cast and guests played a simple game where every member would take turns smashing eggs on their foreheads. There would be a single raw egg mixed into the batch of boiled eggs, and the one who cracked the raw egg would be the loser.
 
As an aside, Ji Suk Jin said, “These things usually happen to Kwang Soo“. Imagine his surprise when it turned out that Kwang Soo had, indeed, grabbed the raw egg and smashed it on his face!
 
That wasn’t all, however – on the second round, Lee Kwang Soo was chosen to go first. Can our viewers guess what happened? That’s right – he ended up picking the raw egg, on the first try, as the first contestant.
 
This unbelievable chain of events, which caused even the staff members to gasp out loud, caused Yoo Jae Suk to exclaim, “The God of Variety is on your side!”
