Hi!! I just watched the show yesterday, it was so funny watching the others trying hard not to laugh in front of Gary for the sake of the mission!!
I was wondering why he was walking so weirdly at the end heh, but a "deceive in deceive in deceive" mission would be sooo epic!!!

I watched this episode twice and I still think Gary wasn't in on the joke and just thought that he had successfully deceived everyone. Lol, I've watched RM since the first episode, and if there's anything I've come to know about Gary, it's that he's more simple-minded than the rest. He's so laid-back that he mostly takes everything at face value. And obviously, this man just can't lie. He sucks at it. Unlike Ji Hyo who can pass it off as just being blank, Jong Kook who can shout his way out of lie, or even Haha who can throw around jokes and subliminal suggestions in just one sentence, Gary just doesn't have that inner anarchist within him. :)

i love gary! really looking foreward to week!

this episode is soooo funny!!! thanks for the recap!

Oh so that's where the wierd limp was from, I was wondering what on earth he was doing lol :P
Yeah I miss Jong Ki too, but his not being a part of running man actually hasn't made a huge impact, he was just eye candy to me, whilst making Gary jealous :P

We might find out the truth in the next episode, I hope Gary was tricking them into thinking he didn't know! That would be awsome. Running man staff are truly amazing and never fail to entertain me! Running Man Mansae <3

I love Running Man.

This episode was awesome. I was really sold by the whole thing. At first I was "what the hell is this episode, its so boring" but knowing the cast (since I've been watching since episode 1 with Lee Hyori ^^) its so funny how they all think.

That ending with Gary is a bit too good to be true though. I still think Gary was the one being fooled. Not once have I seen Gary been that "smart" and act the way he acted if he was the one doing the fooling. Its so far fetched that I really can't imagine him being a "real" spy

though i think that Gary was really just happy that he became a spy for the day, the idea that he might have fooled everyone by thinking he they are fooling him is just so much more interesting and awesome! well i really can't wait for today's episode! maybe they'll reveal the truth today? the china episode will be GREAT!

thank you dramabeans <3

Lol, I love the open-ended ending. This was the career that I envisioned for Kim Jong Min but Gary plays the part perfectly.

The role of easy going 'fool' that's also a hidden genius is really hard :D
I love these sort of specials though. It was a good episode...

"But we see Gary exit the building with a limp that turns into a straight walk, a homage to “The Usual Suspects.” Wait Gar… were we just Punk’d?!"

So, THAT'S why he was doing that! Never saw the movie and had no idea of the "tell".
It's funny - at one point the rest of the RM actually discussed that Gary might be onto them, but it was dismissed out-of-hand as Gary not being bright enough to handle the duplicity of a double-cross.
I am SO hoping that Gary did know and played them all!

How funny was it when Gary went in for the double hug on his Ace during wrestling?! The look of sheer bliss on his face was priceless - and the by-stander's reactions were so thrilled!

It'll be interesting to see if there's a part 2 to this Gary Show - the adverts are showing the China RM to be up next.

Thanks for the recap - this show was a hoot!
:)

Totally out of topic, but anyone know where to dl english subbed qualifications of men?

Thanks :)

Gary is such a dork. But seriously, who punked who? HAHAHAHA. Oh Running Man, only you. Only you.

Heh everyone was trying to hold their laughter in.

RAWs for Episode 61 is out. I haven't seen the whole thing, only the opening, but they don't seem to mention anything about the Tru-Gary episode so far :/

this was true garyception /rmceptoin LOL. thanks for the recap! Love RM! <3 FIGHTING!!

can someone explain to me whats the meaning of the last sentence?
But we see Gary exit the building with a limp that turns into a straight walk, a homage to “The Usual Suspects.” Wait Gar… were we just Punk’d?!

I dont get it..did he know about the whole scenario and pretending as a fool person for the sake of others?

thanks for the recap!!

Found this episode too scripted that I do not find it as fun as the usual dose of running man.

In my opinion, Jae-suk still makes the funniest & most thrilling spy with his water gun!

But a good episode nevertheless - plenty of laughs but not as much tension moments as the other episodes.

the next episode better give the answer!

The funniest part is when the man shouted
"Gary is Mine!" Gary: "I refuse a man" bwahahah

What bothers me is when he said that he wasn't a fool anymore during the middle of the episode. Plus how he just leaves first without really saying anything or doing anything at the end.

I dun't understand for the last part...
Gary-oppa limp into the straight walk..
What is it meaning???

Gary knew all along and played along with them.
By how the production name this episode, Gary won the race.

This is adapted from the movie, The Truman show, Truman knew what went on and ultimately made his escape from the controlled world of the rest.

This is adapted from the movie, The Truman show, Truman knew what went on and ultimately made his escape from the controlled world of the rest, gaining the real freedom.

I FINALLY UNDERSTAND! i knew it all along and played along with them and i believe that his mission was to walk with a limp lag without them noticing

Can you explain more on the ending about his foot steps at the end please?

hi... i know it's a long time but i think i solved the mystery??? nyahaha as if! well, in my opinion at frist was maybe gary was just too innocent to not noticed the people around him but when i saw the last scene where he was limping and the said translation where it kept me hanging after the episode i got curious and keep on searching online on whether there was an interview about the episode but there was none.. so maybe they just put it that way where RM members knows they were deceived by kang gary.. but its just too non challenging for me because i thought there are some big twist will happen but none.. then i leave it that way.. BTW it's kinda funny coz i was wathing running man episodes in BACKWARDS.. so i did not watched the early episodes that time yet.. then i watch the episode 38 were it was JAE SUK's first YOOMES BOND mission its funny to see jaesuk's so nervous while doing the mission when i keep seeing him being sooo confident in the future yoomes bond mission(i watched RM epi backwards).. thinking he is overly confident in the future episodes.. hihi UNTIL!! i saw the last scene where i saw jaesuk said that he was like the MALE LEAD VILLAIN in THE USUAL SUSPECTS!! everyone check it out! so i think they (the running man crew or PD's) knew what was the movie about.. and came up with an idea of putting GARY(the innocent one) on tricking everyone because the idea was that everyone knows that gary cant lie so the RM crew let them(RM mems) know that gary will have a spy mission but the thing that gary cant lie.. is his advantage to put another trick on themso he can show his awkward lying skill to tell them i trick them but they know what they ddnt know is that they were TRICK again... what kwangsoo said maybe true... to deceived the deceiver but still were deceived.. the mission i think that was given to gary is to let the RM mem know and believed they were deceived by gary until the end. you guys get what i mean? hehe im sorry i can be a know-it-all sometimes just like my KOOKIE~ hihi! but i cant just keep it to myself.. i want an answer from the PD's T_T

The ending is based in 'Usual Suspects' 8))

So dispointing in ep 61 and until no, they (rm cast) never talk/ about it again.

i think gary knew all from the start
he already used mic when he came out from the car in the begining
also..
i think the staff gave him mission at the last game. he must walked limp while he's with someone and must made someone to pay attention to his shoes (which he did to jong kook at the shoe store)
if you observed it, all the member of running man wore a shirt that had a picture of a shoe. i think it's a hint that the staff gave them so they could pay attention to Gary's shoes so they would know that Gary walked limp.

I think there's no way Gary knew about the set up.

He isn't that good of an actor to be giving his comments when alone with the VJ that make it seem like he thinks he's the spy. He's acting exactly like you'd expect him to act when carrying out the mission they gave him in the episode.

And unlike what people are suggesting, he isn't limping whenever he's walking with someone else either so that wasn't some hidden mission he had to carry out.

I'm still confused until now.. Why? Because they said that Gary knew all of it and he successfully tricked the Running Man Members and the others said that Gary oppa didn't know and he was a fool in this episode... But in my opinion, oppa knew that RM members' mission was to fool the deceiver (Gary oppa) when he told that "It's strange... I'm not a fool anymore.." then in the closing scene, when he was limping, his expression was serious but when he walked normally, he smiled... THIS WAS THE REASON WHY HE SMILED BECAUSE HE SUCCEEDED IN HIS REAL MISSION..... That's why in my opinion, oppa knew all about it....

ohhhh i already figured out... I think the concept was to know about each other's mission... Then Gary-oppa was acting like a fool person/awful spy (?) to let RM members think that he was acting like a fool... He also figured out that RM members were gathering together so why would he not know about the RM members' identity/mission... About the shoes scene with Kookie, I figured out that his action in that scene was their clue to find out about Gary-oppa's real mission that he will limp when he off home and walk normally... I also think that Kwang Soo-oppa was right that deceive, deceive, DECEIVE!! If Gary-oppa succeeded in fooling them, I think RM Members has to be thankful because Gary-oppa let them to get a bigger prize than his.. In the closing scene, he started to do his real mission (?), I figured out that Gary-oppa was serious when he walked limp but when he stopped limping and walked normally, he finally smiled... Standing ovation for Kang Gary for succeeding in fooling them in his panic acting....

the last caption was "could it be....?" or "did he happen to.....? and the korean caption was seolma (seolma means NO WAY in english and the background sound was "Kill The Target"... that background sound scares me.... and most of the viewers believed that oppa knew about RM Members' secret because oppa noticed that they were group together... so in this episode, RM members were idiot, fool, and stupid because they were careless that's why oppa noticed about their secret... yoo jae suk was right, he said that "will it be us that look weird when we watched it?" , suk jin "he is not fooling us, isn't he", haha: "can't be another twist", kwang soo "fooling, fooling, fooling"... they were close to know gary oppa's real mission but they still thinked that oppa was a fool person.... at first, i thought gary oppa was naive, but watching the whole episode, i noticed that RM Members were naive because of oppa's real mission... jae suk oppa, gary oppa, and ji hyo unni wore the t-shirt and designed with shoe picture but how about gwang soo oppa, suk jin oppa, haha oppa and jong kook oppa's t-shirt design...

Yeah he knew, the moment he saw RM member gather together in individual name tag elimination, he already realized that they were up to something. Also he already thought that noone fool enough to not get a hint from a clear clue of his picture puzzle, so he already suspected that they know, but pretending not knowing at all.

Since this is chuseok episodes and chuseok is all about sharing, he decided to let them win and got the prizes. He also need to keep the show interesting, that's why he is just playing along and not end the show early by revealing that he already know about the whole thing.

Hahaha so funny fooling and foolinh.wth??. BUT RUNNINGMAN IS THE BEST PARODY SHOW IN WORLD FOR ME
