The cast of Running Man Philippines recalled their favorite winter moments from when they filmed the second season of the show in South Korea.
Glaiza de Castro, Kokoy de Santos and Buboy Villar visited the 2024 Korea Travel Fiesta at Glorietta on Saturday, donning their runner jackets. The two-day event aims to promote winter tourism in Korea.
Kokoy said it was his first time experiencing winter.
“Ako excited ako sobra, sabi ko ‘wow winter!’” he said.
(I was really excited, I said ‘wow winter!’)
Likewise, Buboy said it was his first winter, and that he felt the cold the moment he stepped out of the airport.
“Paglabas mo palang sa airport, pagopen ng door, parang may blade ‘yung hangin. Ramdam na ramdam ko na nasa Korea ako, and it’s a blessing,” he said.
(This is the first time I’ve experienced that when you exit the airport, as soon as you open the door, it’s like the wind has blades. I really felt that I was in Korea, and it’s a blessing.)
Glaiza recommended to future travellers to use moisturizers, lip balms, wear extra layers of clothing, and bring heat packs when visiting South Korea during the winter season.
Buboy joked, “[Gagamit ka ng mga] 35 packs in one day.”
([You will be using] 35 packs in one day.)
They also shared their favorite locations that they visited during Running Man PH.
Buboy said that he liked the Yongpyong Ski Resort, which they visited during the first few episodes of the season.
“Sa videoke ko lang nakikita kasi ‘yun eh. Pero dahil sa Running Man, naexperience ko po ‘yung location, ‘yung saya, once in a lifetime lang talaga siya. And it’s so amazing,” he said,
(I only saw that at the videoke before. But because of Running Man, I experienced the location, the fun, it’s only once in a lifetime. And it’s so amazing.)
Glaiza shared that she liked the “eerie feel” of the Sengdun School in Gangwon during the horror episode.
“Para siyang may eerie and cinematic feel. Para kami talagang nasa film. Sobrang cinematic nung lugar kasi mountain, may river,” Glaiza said.
(There’s like an eerie and cinematic feel. It’s like we’re really in a film. The location wannso cinematic because there was a mountain and a river)
As for Kokoy, he said he wants to bring his niece to Legoland Korea.
Kokoy and Buboy also recommended eating pork bone soup, with Kokoy adding that it was a different experience to eat cold treats during the winter season.
They also shared and recommended some favorite Korean dishes that they tried while filming in South Korea.
Gabby Eigenmann, who also guest-starred during Running Man PH Season 1, also made a special appearance as part of the audience.
