"Who do you feel awkward with?" Jae Suk asked Joo Ji Hoon, one of the guest during their filming of episode 202 while everyone is sitting the the train. Jae Suk noticed Ji Hoon was quiet throughout the journey, just kept looking out of the window. Ji Hoon was shocked by his question, he naturally replied by giving a signal with his eyes to Gary who was sitting beside him. "What? What did I do?" Gary scream when Ji Hoon signalled that Gary made him awkward. There was a fake laughter in the train and everyone was awkward about it.

        All the Running Man members knew that Ji Hoon was Ji Hyo's ex boyfriend, but that was long ago. Both of them were dating during the drama "Goong" was filming, then broke up in quite a bad terms. The members were kind of shocked when they found out that one of the guest was him. They thought the situation would be better by now, since both of them has their own life now. "I just closed my eyes the moment I sat beside him" Gary joked around, even he felt how embarrassing the situation is. While Ji Hyo, sat behind the whole time. She couldn't laugh at all. 

        It was a little bit better after when all teams went on separate ways. After the team mission,they all gathered again for the final quiz game, which losers will be splashed with tons of waters. Ji Hyo was being the ace, answering and remembering the questions they are asked to memorize earlier. She was splashed after awhile. Everyone was drenched and Ji Hoon won the final question, together with his team Kwang Soo and Ji Sung. "CUT!" the camera shuts.

        "As you all are informed, it's a two days filming. Pack up and we'll move to the hotel" they hurriedly pack their stuffs even when they are all still in their wet shirts. "Ji Hyo-yah, don't catch a cold. Go change your clothes first, I'll pack up your things" Gary immediately went up to his girl and held his hand openly. "Don't worry Oppa..i'll just change after reaching the hotel" she smiled. Ji Hoon noticed their obvious interactions and he was even more convinced about their relationship. "Just change it now..want me to follow?" he push her towards the direction of the changing room. "Arasso, arasso..I'll do it myself" she was acting all weird, trying to avoid as much interactions with Gary. 

        All of them travelled back in the same van and all the man except Gary had a little drink in the common area. Fabien and Otswiri were all hyped up, singing various korean song that they know. While the rest of the girl guest, Naeun, Bomi and Cha Yoo Ram went back to their rooms for more beauty sleep. "Where's Gary? He is gonna love this two" Jong Kook asked Haha, pointing to Fabien and Otswiri. If Gary were there, the situation will be even more hyped up as Gary loves dancing and enjoying with a bunch of people. "Must be dating with Ji Hyo somewhere here.." Haha, who was a little drunk accidentally slipped his mouth. All of them heard, but awkwardly laughed. Ji Hoon who was sitting at another corner chit-chatting with Kwang Soo excused himself for some time alone. He walked around he lobby, and up to the pool side. Ji Hoon then saw a familiar back view of a woman sitting alone beside the pool.

    "Ji Hyo.." he daringly move towards her and sat beside. "Annyeong....haseyo.." she spoke informally, then continue her greetings in formal terms. "How are you?" he spoke firmly, like strangers. "Just like the old me...nothing much" she replied playing with her own fingers due to nervousness. There was then pure silence among both of them. Ji Hyo felt really uncomfortable. "I know I had to untie this conflict somehow. Keeping this bottled up inside of both of us is not the best way.." Ji Hoon pulled her back when Ji Hyo is about to stand up and leave. "I'm....sorry for our break up. I was young, and immature" he told her words that has been keeping within him for years. Ji Hyo kept quiet. "Our relationship ended in a really bad way because of me. I was sorry, really sorry" his head was facing down all the time. "It's all over now, you don't need to feel bad about it. We were both immature once. You've changed a lot, which is really good. I'm glad you're brave enough to face me still" she smiled and gave him a pat on the back, which she usually does towards the other Running Man members. "Past is past. We just have to learn from the past and live in the present, don't we?" she continued, letting go of the past too. "You're still as considerate as you were 7 years ago.." he looked directly to her eyes and smile. "The reason why I fall in love with you years back" he suddenly brought up that topic again. "Just treat Ga In(Ji Hoon's current girlfriend) better!" she laughed. "You should treat Gary hyung better too" he joked back. "Looks like we're acting too obvious that people around can easily know that we're dating" Ji Hyo laughed embarrassingly. 

        "Oh! Whose that?" Gary run towards Ji Hyo in lightning speed. "Ah, Ji Hoon..." he slowed down his footsteps. "We've talked things out.." Ji Hyo informed Gary what happened earlier. "All better now?" Gary pat on Ji Hoon's shoulder. "Just enjoy the filming tomorrow. Ji Hyo told me all about it and it's all good, so, don't worry about being in an awkward situation with me" Gary smile, and Ji Hoon replied with a bright smile. "I'm sorry I made the atmosphere awkward today, especially to you Gary hyung" he stood up, preparing to leave the place for the two lovebirds. "I'll go back to the common area to join the others" he smiled and left immediately.

       "It feels better after the talk" Ji Hyo lie flatly on the wooden sun deck. "What did you guys talk about?" Gary lie down beside her. "Someone is curious I see..." she turn facing him. "Of course I am.. no matter how open I am, he is still once your boyfriend" he pouted. "Arasso..." she inched closer to him and lie on his shoulder, while Gary wraps his arms around her. "He apologized. But somehow, I don't feel that he need to do that. I asked him to forget about the past" she told Gary everything. She didn't have to hide anything from him anyways. "He said I'm being considerate..." she continued, and noticed how Gary's expression changed into jealousy. "But...I know no one is more considerate than you, Oppa" she snuggle closer to him. "Even after so many obstacles in our relationship, you're still here to listen and forgive. Just like Chang Joo Oppa's incident, and also Ji Hoon. You never give up on me. I wonder why?" Ji Hyo questioned. "Why? Because it's you" he replied the simplest but best answer. "If I had a star for every time you brightened my day, I'd have a galaxy in my hand" she laughed upon saying such cheesy words herself. "Where did you learn all this cheesy stuffs? I thought I'm always the cheesy one" he was laughing really hard as Ji Hyo wasn't really used to saying such things. "Stop it Kang Gary, I was trying to act like you!" she slapped his chest and she was certainly blushing.

        The filming next day was much more better as the knots in Ji Hyo and Ji Hoon's heart is untied. Both of them enjoy the filming and mission as much as they could and the weird interactions were no longer there. This incident even made things more obvious to the rest that something is going on between Monday Couple. Even so, those that know about their secret relationship kept it to themselves. 

        Filming ended really quick as Kwang Soo and Ji Sung was ripping the name-tags aggressively even if it's a secret mission. Gary packed up and went in to his car waiting for Ji Hyo as she bids farewell to that someone which she used to know so well, Ji Hoon. "I'll see you any sooner. Take good care of yourself" Ji Hyo waved her hands. "Ji Hyo...one last thing." he moved forward and hug her. "Let this hug be the farewell hug. Thank you for being a part of my life. Stay happy" he hugged her for quite some time and finally let go. "I know Gary hyung is a good man. I'll be waiting for your big news soon.." he smiled and bid goodbye too.
