However, it seems that the SBS production team has listened to the pleas of fans and will no longer be scratching the show. The show will continue on!

SBS confirmed the show's continuation and stated that,"After hearing the voices of fans, SBS and the 6 'Running Man' members have decided to continue the program with its current members. The production crew continued, "We also repeatedly apologized to the members for the incidents that happened during the program reorganization process, and the members eventually agreed to continue 'Running Man'."

Producer Nam Seung Yong met with each of the members individually to confirm their feelings about the decision. As stated in the Instagram post below, Nam PD and the 'Running Man' staff voiced out their thoughts and gratitude on the show's continuation:

"[RunningMan Staffs' official announcement] SBS & 6 RM members decided to keep going on RunningMan without stopping in consideration of RM fans' wishes for RM to be continued.
