On Jan 7th broadcast of SBS’s entertainment program “Running Man” , the members gathered for the 2024 New Year’s party under the concept of “Running Villa residents” .
Noh Sang-hyun recalled, “Me and Kim Jong-kook played a punch machine in Denmark, and I realized that he has a soft fist.” He surprised everyone by revealing, “The highest score is 999 points, but (Kim Jong-kook’s score) was 92 points.”

Kim Jong-kook was embarrassed, saying, “There’s a story behind this.” However, Noh Sang-hyun said “I made a vest with 92 written on it” and handed over a vest with the number “92” . Kim Jong-kook told Noh Sang-hyun, “Whose idea is this?” Yoo Jae-suk exclaimed, “I’m really surprised now. I’ve never seen a character like this before.”

In particular, regarding Kim Jong-kook’s punch score of 92, he made a controversial statement, “I exercised to hit people, not to hit machines.” Then he quickly corrected himself, “I exercised to hit living things to protect myself (self-defense).”
