The cast members of 'Running Man' got together to parody the ultra-popular SBS drama, 'You Who Came From The Stars'!

The episode began several hundred years ago, where surprise guest Kim Hyun Soo re-enacted her role as Chun Song Yi. Imploring the others to save her by showing the way out, a fierce nametag-ripping chase ensued as Yoo Jae Suk eventually became the sole victor, getting a prize in the form of a future-telling notebook.

In the present day, HaHa was revealed to be the never-aging Do Min Joon - and with that role came a slate of superpowers such as extreme speed and time freezing! He needed to find the Chun Song Yi of this era and escape via the UFO that was parked outside.

However, they faced several hurdles in the form of the other 'Running Man' members, who could gain a path to victory by finding a secret key and opening the UFO themselves, and a mysterious lurking evil, who could rip name tags based on the scattered rings he found.
