RUNNING MAN

Ji Suk Jin

Age: 54
Birthday: February 10, 1966
Birthplace: Jungseon, South Korea

The oldest member of the show and one of Yoo Jae-suk's closest friends, having known each other for more than 20 years. He is shown to be jealous of the good relationship between Yoo Jae-suk and Kim Jong-kook. Dubbed the "Race Starter" during the race missions, he is shown to be one of the weakest members and is the most frequently eliminated, so easily that the other members would declare that the race has officially started after his elimination. He's even dubbed as the group's "black hole" because of this. He is also the most gullible among the cast, as he gets easily tricked, particularly towards business investments, though he is also sometimes portrayed to be smart, particularly towards Korean history.
