With Jeon So Min’s announcement to quit “Running Man”, people have once again started discussions about “actors should not participate in variety shows for a long time.”

Stars who are unique in variety shows often create so-called “variety show characters.”However, once such a persona is established, it is often difficult to break away from it. For example, Lee Kwang-soo, who was the first to withdraw from “Running Man”, was nicknamed “Giraffe”, “Kwang-soo the God of Variety Assists”, and “Kwang-soo the Betrayal”for his hilarious performance in “Running Man”. It left a strong mark on the image. Therefore, people will also associate him with his variety show roles in other series. Some netizens posted stills of Lee Kwang-soo in the costume drama, claiming, “Because of his inherent image in variety shows, people can’t get into the drama.””This is not Lee Kwang-soo going to the folk village to film “Running Man””, “This It should be Lee Kwang-soo’s “RM”costume drama special”and so on.

Netizens have been talking about this and have their own opinions. They said: “Lee Kwang Soo is very good at acting. Go watch “It’s Okay, It’s Love””and “Really, actors can only go to variety shows like “Liu QUIZ”to promote their works. That’s good, don’t appear in variety shows regularly, it loses the sense of mystery” , “I want to laugh whenever I see Lee Kwang Soo’s face” , “I agree, so many actors will not appear in variety shows for a long time” , “It’s true to mention When I see Lee Kwang-soo, I think of his variety shows first.””I think so too, so I don’t even watch Lee Seung-gi’s movies. I can’t get into the character, I can only see him in person,”etc.
