The Entertainment Industry in Turmoil: Young Actresses All Want to Rise to the Top

"Run, Dilraba!"

Shen Mo rushed over and wrapped his arms around Kim Jong-kook, trapping him in a tight embrace.

In those brief one or two seconds, Dilraba was given a precious chance to escape!

She scrambled to her feet and ran swiftly toward Bai Lu's location at the far end of the corridor.

Kim Jong-kook didn't chase after him. Instead, he grabbed Shen Mo's arms, which were wrapped around his body, and a mischievous smile appeared on his face.

This is exactly the situation he wanted!

Any normal male celebrity would not allow a vulnerable female celebrity to be arrested in front of him, except for Yoo Jae-suk and Lee Kwang-soo from the Korean version of Running Man.

"Hello!"

The awkward pronunciation came from Kim Jong-kook's mouth, and Shen Mo realized at that moment that he seemed to have fallen into a trap.

"Hello!"

Shen Mo loosened his grip on his arm, but did not forcefully break free from the hand that was holding him.

Kim Jong-kook released one of Shen Mo's hands, then turned around to stand face to face with Shen Mo. At the same time, the other hand that was gripping Shen Mo's arm tightened its grip even more.

A real battle of 1v1 men is about to begin!

Just then, Li Chen ran over from a distance, shouting as he ran.

"Shen Mo, I've found the complete clues for the briefcase."

"The condition for winning is to tear off Kim Jong-kook's name tag!"

Bai Lu and Dilraba had already run more than ten meters away when they heard Li Chen's shout. They stopped abruptly and turned around in surprise.

Is the winning condition to tear off the hunter Kim Jong-kook?

Isn't this... a bit too difficult?

The two looked at each other, both seeing disbelief in each other's eyes.

But seeing that Shen Mo had already confronted Kim Jong-kook head-on, Li Chen also rushed over. They exchanged a glance, took a deep breath, turned around in tacit understanding, and carefully surrounded him as well.

Kim Jong-kook looked the man in front of him up and down, noting his tall stature and calm demeanor.

The brief exchange and chase just now made him realize that Shen Mo was not an ordinary "pretty face" artist; his physical strength, reaction and courage were all top-notch.

This ignited his competitive spirit as an ability user.

He released his grip on Shen Mo's arm, took a small step back, adopted a slightly wary posture, and beckoned to Shen Mo with his finger.

He said in broken but clear Chinese: "Come on, give it a try."

This is a formal challenge.

Seeing this, Li Chen's blood boiled, and he shouted, "Shen Mo, I'll help you!"

"Brother Chen, wait!" Shen Mo suddenly spoke up.

He stretched his arm, which had gone numb from Kim Jong-kook's grip, and fixed his gaze on the figure opposite him, his eyes burning with a pure competitive spirit.

"Let me try it out with him alone first."

"A true 1v1 battle of real men!"

Facing an opponent of Kim Jong-kook's caliber, having more people isn't necessarily an advantage. If you rashly surround him, he might just run away and then turn around and pick you off one by one.

More importantly, his inherent competitive spirit and pride were completely ignited at this moment.

He didn't think that he, after being reborn and strengthened, would lose to the man opposite him.

Li Chen was stunned for a moment, and stopped in his tracks when he saw the seriousness in Shen Mo's eyes.

Bai Lu and Dilraba held their breath, watching the two facing off in the arena with bated breath.

Kim Jong-kook glanced back at Lee Chen. Although he couldn't understand what Lee Chen was saying, it didn't stop him from understanding the current situation.

His eyes showed even more approval. He nodded, said no more, and with a low shout, he displayed amazing agility and launched the first attack!

Instead of rushing forward to tear off the name tag, he made a swift lunge, his right hand grabbing Shen Mo's shoulder like an iron clamp.

His left hand was poised to block Shen Mo's possible counterattack routes.

Shen Mo's pupils contracted slightly, and instead of retreating, he advanced!

He slightly shifted his body to the side, avoiding the right hand that was grabbing at his shoulder, while simultaneously using his left arm to block and deflect Kim Jong-kook's subsequent left-hand grab.

The two men's arms collided with a dull thud.

Kim Jong-kook's strength was immense, and Shen Mo's arm went numb from the shock.

But his lower body was extremely stable. Using the force of the collision, he actually got closer to Kim Jong-un's inside, and his right hand reached out like lightning to the name tag on the back of the other man!

So fast!

Kim Jong-kook was startled. His rich experience made him instinctively shrug his shoulders and twist his waist, barely dodging Shen Mo's fingertips.

At the same time, he braced his left hand against Shen Mo's chest and pushed him forcefully, forcing Shen Mo to retreat.

In the blink of an eye, the two had exchanged several blows.

With her enhanced reaction speed and agile movements, Shen Mo repeatedly evaded Kim Jong-kook's captures and attempted to counterattack.

Kim Jong-kook, relying on his formidable strength and extensive experience in name tag ripping games, thwarted Shen Mo's repeated tricky attacks.

The two sides moved back and forth, dodging and weaving in the narrow corridor, creating a thrilling and exciting atmosphere that was so tense it was almost suffocating.

Bai Lu and Dilraba watched with sweaty palms, not daring to blink.

Li Chen clenched his fists. The close-up, real-man battle in front of him gave him a strong thrill, and he stood there, itching to join in several times.

Just as Shen Mo tried to flank him again, Kim Jong-kook slightly shifted his weight to deal with the situation!

Li Chen couldn't resist and moved!

He rushed up from Kim Jong-kook's blind spot and grabbed the conspicuous name tag on Kim Jong-kook's back with his right hand!

However, Kim Jong-kook, who had been keeping a close eye on the man behind him, heard the sound of wind behind him and instinctively turned around.

Just as Li Chen's finger was about to touch the edge of the brand name tag, it dodged it.

Then, he used his shoulder and arm to block Li Chen's momentum as he charged forward, and his left hand quickly reached behind him and accurately grabbed the name tag on Li Chen's back!

"Sizzle—!"

Clean and decisive, without any suspense!

Li Chen hadn't even realized what was happening when he felt a chill run down his back and froze in place, still in his forward-leaning posture.

The broadcast blared coldly: "Li Chen, OUT!"

The entire room fell silent.

Li Chen, whose role on Running Man is almost identical to Kim Jong-kook's, was actually... instantly defeated by the "Ability User"?!

They couldn't even last one round after just one encounter?

Li Chen's face was filled with astonishment, resentment, and a hint of confusion, as if he couldn't accept this fact.

Kim Jong-kook released his grip, nodded to him, gave him a brief hug, and patted him on the back.

It's not that Lee Jin is much weaker than Kim Jong-kook; it's not that he's completely outclassed.

This is simply a matter of experience overpowering opponents; it's the experience and skills that Kim Jong-kook honed through countless 1v1 and 1vN battles in the Korean version of Running Man.

Li Chen gave a wry smile, shook his head, patted Shen Mo's shoulder, said nothing, and then stood at a distance.

Bai Lu and Dilraba's faces turned pale. If even Li Chen was like this, wouldn't they be just offering themselves up as food if they went up there?

With Li Chen out of the way, Kim Jong-kook refocused his attention on Shen Mo and could now give it his all.

He felt that through their exchange just now, he had figured out Shen Mo's rhythm.

The pressure has increased dramatically!

Shen Mo could sense that Kim Jong-kook's offensive had become more relentless, and the pressure had increased even more.

Kim Jong-kook stopped trying to forcibly control Shen Mo's arm; the other was too agile.

He began trying to force Shen Mo into the corner and obstacles, compressing his space to dodge.

"Brother Mo!"

Bai Lu was extremely anxious. In a moment of impulsiveness, she forgot her fear and shouted at Dilireba.

"Dilraba! Let's go! Harass him! Don't get close to him, but don't let him focus on Mo Ge!"

Dilraba nodded in agreement, and the two of them, without further hesitation, cautiously approached the battle zone from both sides.

"Oppa! We're here!"

Bai Lu suddenly shouted in Korean.

Kim Jong-kook glanced at it subconsciously.

Almost simultaneously, Dilraba made a feint from the other side as if she were about to rush over.

Kim Jong-kook is human after all, and his attention was inevitably diverted for a moment when faced with the two girls' harassment, which was sometimes real and sometimes fake.

Shen Mo seized this fleeting opportunity!

Shen Mo moved!

Instead of retreating, he took a step forward to meet Kim Jong-kook's force, using his left hand to block Kim Jong-kook's right arm as he tried to defend, and cleverly using his right foot to block Kim Jong-kook's supporting leg.

His entire body's strength exploded instantly, and he charged forward!

Kim Jong-kook's center of gravity was instantly shaken!

In order to maintain his balance, he had to stagger back half a step, and his hands swung unconsciously to try to regain his balance, which exposed a slightly larger gap in his back!

It's now!

Shen Mo's right hand swiftly reached out and precisely grabbed the top edge of Kim Jong-kook's name tag on the back!

Kim Jong-kook's expression changed drastically, and he tried to forcefully twist his body to break free!

But would Shen Mo give him another chance?

"Sizzle!!!"

Shen Mo held the black name tag that read "Kim Jong-kook" firmly in his hand!

Time seemed to stand still at that moment.

Kim Jong-kook froze in his turning and exertion posture, his face full of astonishment.

Although the production team had told me beforehand that they hoped for a spectacular fight, and I was "unexpectedly" stripped of my name tag, it was understandable that I would cooperate since it was a show that had purchased the rights.

However, I never expected to be defeated by the opponent through skill. Logically speaking, the opponent was obviously a novice, and with my experience, it was almost impossible for me to lose to the opponent.

But facts are facts, and he genuinely admired him.

Shen Mo was panting heavily, sweat streaming down his face, but his hand holding the name tag remained as steady as a rock.

Bai Lu and Dilraba stood there, their mouths agape in an "O" shape. The next second, immense joy and unbelievable excitement surged through them!

"ah--!!!"

Bai Lu was the first to scream. She rushed over without thinking, jumped up and hugged Shen Mo's neck, laughing and shouting.

"Brother Mo! You did it! You tore off Kim Jong-kook's name tag! You're amazing!"

Dilraba covered her mouth, her eyes glistening with tears of excitement.

The man who had just saved her in her moment of crisis, though looking somewhat disheveled, shone with the radiance of a victor in Dilraba's eyes.

Kim Jong-kook snapped out of his daze, put on a bright smile, stepped forward, and extended his large hand.

Shen Mo released Bai Lu, handed her the name tag, and also reached out to shake hands firmly with Kim Jong-kook.

"sharp!"

Kim Jong-kook spoke in Chinese, patting Shen Mo's shoulder with his other hand.

"You are very strong!"

"You too!"

Shen Mo responded with a smile, his tone sincere.

A thrilling "battle of real men" came to a perfect end with Shen Mo's earth-shattering tear.

This showdown is destined to become one of the most unforgettable classic moments in the first season of "Running Man" and even in the entire history of the show.
