Updated episode count. As of this time only 692 episodes have been announced, but it will almost surely hit 700, so I'm future-proofing this a little.

Added Primal Fear to Yoo Jae-Suk

Added DiffLines:

* PrimalFear: He admits to having a fear of heights. The program directors exploit this by putting him onto chairlifts, small airplanes, bungee jumps, etc.

Added I Want My Mommy to Ji-Hyo

Added DiffLines:

* IWantMyMommy: Of all the cast members, Ji-Hyo is the most likely to call out for her "eomma" when stressed.

Added Control Freak to Kim Jong-Kook

Added DiffLines:

* ControlFreak: They don't call him "The Commander" for nothing; Jong-Kook demonstrates an irrepressible urge to tell his teammates what to do and how to do it. Not even Creator/JackieChan is safe from his unsolicited advice.

Added Lovable Jock to Kim Jong-Kook

Added DiffLines:

* LovableJock: He may be a workout fanatic, but his sense of humor, supportive attitude, and [[CannotTalkToWomen shyness towards women]] gives him an endearing quality that elevates him above the level of a stereotypical [[DumbMuscle muscle-head]].
** "Loveable" just so happens to be the title of one of his most popular songs. So he's not just a Loveable Jock, he's ''the'' "Loveable" Jock.

[[folder: Yang Se-Chan]]
* {{Gonk}}: His looks are a frequent subject of (good-natured, of course) mocking. When the staff made a montage of faces that digitally combined the guys and girls, all of those involving Se Chan were pointed out right away (mainly due to his teeth).
* SixthRanger: Along with Jeon So-Min in Episode 348.
* SycophanticServant: PlayedForLaughs. Whenever it comes time for the cast to pick teams, Se-Chan tends to gravitate towards [[TheAce Kim Jong-Kook]] and proclaim loudly how close friends they are. It's mainly a self-preservation tactic as in Episode 392 he taunts the others on his team (including Kim Jong-Kook) over winning the exemption from that episode's penalty until KJK noted that they'll be back together next week, whereupon Se-Chan [[MoodWhiplash runs right back to Jong-Kook's side and proclaims that they're all a family.]]

* TheCameo: Unlike Gary, Kwang-Soo is mentioned or heard every now and then ever since he left, at one point his call to Jae-suk got cut off by the latter onscreen and he even spoke with Suk-jin over the phone, also onscreen before the Grand Award night.
