MBC’s ‘I Live Alone’ has hit another all-time low. Following 4.6% for episode 637 and 4.4% for episode 640, episode 646 recorded 4.3%. This marks the lowest rating since episode 422 in November 2021, which stood at 4.2%.
In the May 8th broadcast of episode 646, viewers saw the second part of the ‘Whale Run’ featuring Jun Hyun-moo’s ‘Fun Run Crew 1st Gen Mudoraji,’ as well as Seo Bum-jun tackling a deep clean with his best friend, TXT’s Yeonjun.
The ‘Fun Run 1st Gen Mudoraji’ members, Jun Hyun-moo, Park Ji-hyun, Dowoon, and Bae Nara, displayed great teamwork, pushing and pulling each other through a challenging uphill course. During the final downhill stretch, Jun Hyun-moo sprinted at an almost reckless speed, throwing down a challenge to ‘real runners’ Sean and Kian84. In the end, ‘Mudoraji’ completed the 12.62km ‘Whale Run’ in 5 hours and 35 minutes. Despite the unique pace of 26 minutes per kilometer, the members felt a huge sense of achievement seeing the completed whale shape.
After finishing the run, they enjoyed some ‘Fun Run’ aftercare with half-baths at a lodge overlooking the ocean. Jun Hyun-moo and the members shared their excitement for ‘Fun Run 2nd Gen,’ and the mention of a new ‘Pig Run’ concept sparked laughter. On the other hand, Dowoon declared his exit, stating, “I don’t think running is for me.”
Meanwhile, Seo Bum-jun teamed up with his close friend, TXT’s Yeonjun, for a massive house cleaning. The sight of the ‘Sleeveless Brothers’ struggling to pull a tile rug from under the bed was a highlight. Afterward, Seo Bum-jun prepared stir-fried webfoot octopus and chive kimbap for a mukbang with Yeonjun. Seo Bum-jun expressed his gratitude, saying that Yeonjun feels like a “pacemaker” to him.
The upcoming episode on the 15th will feature Kim Shin-young’s ‘thrilling homebody life after work’ and Joy’s challenge to get a dog groomer certification.
