Peninsula: I can steal the luck of disgraced celebrities

Chapter 103 The Name Tag Ripping Battle Begins

The entire girls' team participated.

The four people put on non-slip gloves and tied elastic ropes around their waists.

The PD raised the flag.

GO!

'

first round.

As soon as the boys' team exerted their strength, the rope immediately moved in this direction.

Kim Jong-kook brought up the rear, his feet firmly planted on the ground, completely still.

Lin Chih-hsun was in second place, holding the rope with both hands, leaning back, and delivering a steady output.

On the girls' side, Song Ji-hyo gritted her teeth and held on, while Yoona and Suzy were also pulling desperately, but the difference in weight and strength was too great.

The elastic ropes acted as a buffer, preventing them from being pulled over instantly, but they only delayed their defeat.

Thirty seconds later, the girls' team's marker line crossed the midpoint.

"The boys' team wins the first game!"

No doubt about it.

The boys were clapping and celebrating, while the girls were encouraging each other.

The director of the production crew gave Yoo Jae-suk a wink from outside the camera's view.

Yoo Jae-suk understood; this was too boring.

Nobody wants to watch a game where the outcome is never in doubt.

So, while celebrating and hugging Lim Ji-hoon, Yoo Jae-suk secretly whispered in Lim Ji-hoon's ear, using the camera as cover, "Don't forget Hye-mi, Sam-dong."

Second round.

The girls' team changed their formation, placing Song Ji-hyo at the back and Suzy at the front.

"Ji-hyo unnie, you hold on first, we'll pull you forward," Suzy shouted from the front.

"Let's switch places too," Lin Zhixun suggested. "The girls have changed their strategy, so we should switch places as well."

HAHA asked curiously, "So, what strategy should we use?"

"Let me stand at the front, let me use my charm on Suzy." Lin Zhixun winked at Haha.

HAHA crossed his arms, took a step back, and said, "If you want to stand in front, then stand in front. Don't try to wink at me."

Both sides took their positions.

Lim Ji-hoon winked at Suzy first.

Now is the time to test our bond, Suzy!

I'm sure you'll understand what I mean by my eyes. Use your charm on me and make the boys' team lose the game!

Did Suzy understand it?

No.

She was completely bewildered.

What strange thing is this man doing now?

Did you get sand in your eyes?

The competition has officially begun.

This match was evenly matched compared to the previous one.

The girls thought their strategy had worked and encouraged each other.

But actually, Lin Chih-hsun didn't use much force at all; sometimes he would even help the girl with some effort.

"Shihoon, put in some effort! Didn't you eat breakfast?"

HAHA was behind him and could feel that the distribution of force on the rope in front of him was a bit strange.

Lin Chih-hsun's energetic rhythm is quite different from others.

Lin Zhixun glanced back and replied with a smile, "You ate? You ate the sandwich that Girls' Generation brought."

"Was I just concerned about what you ate for breakfast?!" Haha's face flushed red, and he gasped for breath. "Didn't you say you were going to use your 'handsome man technique'? Go ahead and use it!"

"receive!"

Lin Chih-hsun was just worried about not having a good opportunity to lose to the girls, and now he has that chance.

He first shouted at the person opposite, "Suzy!"

Suzy looked over.

Not only Suzy, but the other three girls also looked over.

Then Lin Zhixun blinked frantically.

He's the kind of guy you can tell he's trying to flirt, but because he goes too far, he goes from a cool, aloof guy to a funny one.

"puff""

The four girls opposite them all laughed.

Kim Jong-kook felt the rope on the other side loosen and shouted, "Great opportunity!"

The girls' rhythm was disrupted, and it was too late to get it back on track.

And so they were swept away in one fell swoop.

The second round has ended.

The four girls sat awkwardly on the grass.

After standing up, Lee Soon-kyu immediately raised her hand to report to the crew, "I want to report Lim Ji-hoon! He deliberately made us laugh, otherwise we would definitely have won this round!"

"Yeah, yeah!" Song Ji-hyo chimed in second, "And now we have to endure this dog food (a Chinese slang term for witnessing public displays of affection)? I'm not satisfied with this match, I'm going to take it to the United Nations!"

On the boys' side, Haha patted Jihoon on the shoulder with an expression that said, "You've sacrificed too much for the competition."

Off-camera, the director laughed and replied, "The game rules don't prohibit making the other person laugh, so it's not against the rules!"

Yoona and Suzy helped each other to their feet.

"Suzy, say something!"

Suzy glanced at Yoona, then at the person opposite her.

"What did I say? Is it funny to say his eyes are twitching?"

"Hahahaha" 7

This time, even the boys laughed.

Lin Zhixun stood there, scratching the back of his head, looking a little embarrassed.

His flirtatious glances just now were definitely too much. He originally wanted to cooperate with Yoo Jae-suk's hints and act like he was letting Yoo Jae-suk win, but he still won in the end.

However, it did have an effect; at least everyone was smiling.

After the laughter subsided, the PD announced the start of the third round.

The girls' team held their breath for the third game.

Song Ji-hyo shouted, "Let's go all out this round!" and all four of them fell backward at the same time.

Lin Chih-hsun didn't dare to be too blatant about it this time.

Kim Jong-kook was at the very back. He was like a human winch; no matter how loose you were at the front, if you pulled hard from behind, the rope would still pull towards the guy.

Lin Zhixun had no choice but to obediently follow along and be pulled.

Thirty seconds later, the girls' team's marker line crossed the midpoint again.

"3-0, the boys' team wins all their matches!"

The four girls slumped to the ground, not wanting to get up.

Lee Soon-kyu lay on the grass and rolled her eyes to the sky.

"Three to zero, three to zero—I've never lost so thoroughly in all my years in the industry."

"Sunny," Suzy gasped, lying next to him, "I've only been in the industry for less than a year, and I've already lost so completely."

""

"Yeah, you're in a worse situation than me."

The two comforted each other, creating a scene that was undeniably funny.

The atmosphere on the boys' side was great.

Haha hugged Lee Kwang-soo's neck to celebrate, Ji Suk-jin clapped on the side, and Song Joong-ki gave Gary a high five.

Both rounds of the competition have concluded, and the boys' team has won both rounds.

PD gathered everyone in the center of the playground to announce the rules for the final round.

"The final round—the name tag ripping battle."

The moment those four words were uttered, the atmosphere in the entire room instantly changed.

Kim Jong-kook flexed his wrists.

Lee Kwang-soo instinctively took a half-step behind Kim Jong-kook.

Song Ji-hyo crossed her arms, and something flickered in her eyes.

Tearing off name tags—that's the soul of Running Man.

PD continues flipping through the ruleboard.

"but"

"Because today is a Valentine's Day special, the rules for the final round are: the four members of the girls' team can each choose one boy as their partner based on the boys' performance in the first two rounds, forming a couples team."

HHHHO, "

The whole place erupted.

"The four selected boys will team up with their respective female partners, while the four boys who were not selected will have to fight alone."

"The couple team has a special skill called the Couple Combo Skill, which can only be used once in the entire match, and each couple in the team has a different skill."

The boys started to complain when the rule was announced.

There were eight boys in total, four of whom were chosen by the girls, leaving the remaining four to compete alone.

Furthermore, couples can perform combined skills.

In other words, being selected is actually a good thing.

The four who weren't chosen are the real cannon fodder.

Some guys started objecting to the rules, saying they felt single people were treated worse than dogs on Valentine's Day.

Haha even told the director that he had actually concealed his gender; in fact, he was from the girls' team.

He jogged over to the girl, only to be sheepishly chased back by her.

After the playful fighting ended, the girls began choosing their partners.

"Now—" the PD looked at the girls' team, "Girls, please choose your partners in order."

"Wait a minute," Yoo Jae-suk raised his hand and asked, "In what order?"

"By age, from oldest to youngest."

That means Song Ji-hyo will be chosen first.

Song Ji-hyo stepped forward somewhat reluctantly, put her hands in her pockets, and looked around at the boys.

She scanned all eight people at once, creating a scene that inexplicably felt like a talent show.

"I choose—"

Song Ji-hyo paused for a moment.

Ji Suk-jin clasped his hands together and muttered, "Pick me, pick me."

HAHA also forced out what he thought was a very handsome smile.

"I choose Gary."

"Oh—" A knowing murmur rippled through the crowd.

Gary stood there, stunned for a moment, then his ears turned visibly red.

"The Monday Couple really lives up to their name!" Haha exclaimed from the side.

"Don't talk nonsense," Gary walked towards Song Ji-hyo, pretending to be calm. "This is a tactical choice."

"Yes, yes, yes, it's a tactical choice." Kim Jong-kook sneered from behind.

The whole audience laughed again.

The second choice was Lee Soon-kyu.

She stepped forward almost without hesitation.

"Jong Kook hyung, thank you for your help!"

Kim Jong-kook raised an eyebrow.

"What's the reason?" HAHA pressed.

Lee Soon-kyu said confidently, "He's the best player. Valentine's Day is Valentine's Day, winning is the most important thing."

"This is too realistic!" Ji Suk-jin wailed from the side.

Kim Jong-kook didn't react much. He walked over to Lee Soon-kyu, patted his muscles, and said, "Don't worry, I'll win."

Third, Suzy.

Lin Chih-hsun stood among the boys, already having guessed what was going on.

Cheng and Suzy are here to promote "Dream High," and she will only choose Cheng.

She does have that much professionalism.

But after Suzy came out, she pretended to look around.

His face showed a hesitant expression.

"It's so hard to choose."

The members of "Running Man" also guessed that Suzy would probably choose Lim Ji-hoon.

But for the sake of variety show effect, they still attracted Suzy's attention by displaying their plumage like peacocks spreading their tails.

After hesitating for half a minute, Suzy gave her final answer.

"I choose Lin Chih-hsun."

"Oh! Song Sam-dong and Go Hye-mi!" Yoo Jae-suk blurted out, "The official couple from the Valentine's Day special!"

The people present started to jeer again.

Lin Zhixun walked over to Suzy and whispered, "Why did you pretend to hesitate for so long?"

Suzy blinked her eyes and said cutely, "Of course it's for the sake of the variety show, it couldn't be to make you feel anxious, could it?"

"She's really becoming more and more like a bad woman, Suzy," Lim Ji-hoon thought to himself.

Lastly, Lim Yoon-a.

The remaining boys on the field are: Yoo Jae-suk, Ji Suk-jin, Haha, Song Hye-ki, and Lee Kwang-soo.

Choose one from the left.

Im Yoona stood in the middle, pointing her finger at her chin, as if deep in thought.

"Biji————"

Song Bi-gi's eyes lit up.

"----never mind."

Song Bi-gi's expression instantly fell, while Lee Kwang-soo next to him laughed so hard he slapped his thigh.

"Kwang-soo oppa is tall — but it seems like he has no other advantages besides being tall."

Lee Kwang-soo's smile froze.

"Senior Ji Suk-jin————"

Ji Suk-jin straightened his back.

"Hmm————" Lim Yoona shook her head.

Ji Suk-jin's back bent again.

"HAHA-senpai-"

"6

"No, no," HAHA waved his hand first, "I know you won't choose me."

Yoona eventually turned to the last person.

"Senior Yoo Jae-suk".

Yoo Jae-suk pointed to his nose. "Me?"

"Yes, Jae-seok is the most experienced, and—" Lim Yoona paused, then added, "This program is his home turf, so choosing him is definitely the right choice."

These words made Yoo Jae-suk a little embarrassed.

"Yoona xI, what you're saying puts a lot of pressure on me."

Despite saying that, Yoo Jae-suk walked briskly to Im Yoon-ah's side.

"Hey, Jae-seok!" Ji Suk-jin called out from behind, "That quick walk you made just now was clearly twice as fast as usual!"

"Really? I always walk at this fast pace."

"You're kidding me!"

Player selection is complete, and the lineup is set.

The four couples are: Song Ji-hyo & Gary, Lee Soon-kyu & Kim Jong-kook, Suzy & Lim Ji-hoon, and Lim Yoon-ah & Yoo Jae-suk.

Four bachelors operating alone: ​​Ji Suk-jin, Haha, Song Ki, and Lee Kwang-soo.

"These four people—" Lin Zhixun looked at the four people who were left alone, and his lips twitched.

HAHA squatted on the ground with his hands behind his head.

Ji Suk-jin looked utterly dejected.

Song Biji smiled and shook his head.

Lee Kwang-soo went even further, kneeling on the ground and roaring to the sky, "This is Valentine's Day! Valentine's Day is for punishing single people!"

The PD added ruthlessly: "Moreover, solo players don't have any special skills."

"Ah!" All four people cried out in pain at the same time.

The production team generously provided name tags for everyone.

Lin Zhixun's name tag reads "Song Sendong," while Suzy's reads "Gao Huimei."

"Even the name tags are character names." Lin Zhixun glanced down at them.

"It's a Valentine's Day special." Suzy glanced at the name tag on her back, then looked up at him. "The couple's combined skill can only be used once. When do you want to use it?"

Lin Zhixun thought for a moment.

"Save it for last."

Why?

"For now, rely on your strength. Combined techniques are for future use. If you run into Jong Kwok, you'll have to rely on this move."

Soo-ji thought about it and realized it made sense, so she nodded.

"Then you take charge of the fighting, and I'll take care of—"

"run."

"—I was just about to say that I'm in charge of command."

"You can't even outrun me, what are you giving orders for?"

Suzy reached her hand towards Lim Ji-hoon's waist.

Say it again.

Xiuzhi held the emperor hostage to command the feudal lords.

"Don't repeat yourself."

"Sigh—at least change your position, you weren't feeling well yesterday!"

PD then announced the rules.

"The designated area is the entire school, including the playground, school buildings, and gymnasium. The time limit is one hour, and the last team standing wins."

If either member of a couple is eliminated, the other member is also automatically eliminated.

This rule made everyone in the couples' teams nervous.

This means that Seigo's partner is just as important as Seigo himself.

Lim Ji-hoon turned his head and glanced at Suzy.

How can someone who usually lies in bed scrolling through their phone after filming and has virtually no physical activity survive this kind of struggle?

Xiuzhi seemed to sense Cheng's scrutiny and frowned.

"Don't look at me like I'm a weakling."

"I don't."

"You have it, your whole face screams 'How can you bring this person along?'"

Lin Zhixun looked away and cleared his throat.

"Let's go, let's find a place to hide first."

"hide?"

"Yes, let those four single people kill each other first, and then we can reap the benefits."

Suzy was taken aback for a moment, then smiled.

"I like this strategy."

The PD raised the flag.

"The Brand Name Battle Begins!"
