Episode 330 (2016): The First Visit
Debut year · all four membersBLACKPINK debuted in August 2016, and by December the four members were already guests on Korea’s biggest variety show. Episode 330 aired on December 18, 2016 and was filmed around Jeonju. For many international fans this is the “BLACKPINK Running Man 2016 episode” they keep searching for.
The moment people remember most is a fast question-and-answer game between JISOO and ROSÉ on opposing teams. ROSÉ answered one question with startling honesty, and then JISOO named two senior YG labelmates — G-Dragon and Daesung — in a way that made the whole cast burst out laughing. Yoo Jae-suk had to jokingly tell Daesung not to take it personally, and JISOO quickly added that Daesung is “the best.” It is a good first look at the members’ personalities before they became global stars.
Episodes 409 & 413 (2018): JENNIE Returns
Summer 2018 · JENNIE and JISOOEpisode 409 (July 15, 2018) was a summer “couple race” at Ocean World in Hongcheon, and JENNIE and JISOO came as guests. JENNIE was paired with Lee Kwang-soo and chose the horror room — she started crying almost as soon as she walked in, and Kwang-soo had to lead the way. They lost the mission, and the cast blamed Haha for suggesting that room. It is the source of many “JENNIE scared on Running Man” clips.
Less than a month later JENNIE was back on her own for episode 413 (August 12, 2018), the “Unlucky Vacation” special, where the guests played missions to win a say in the penalties. Her quick return made her one of the most familiar idol faces on the show that year.
Episode 525 (2020): The Full Group Is Back
October 18, 2020 · Lovesick Girls eraEpisode 525 aired on October 18, 2020, during promotions for THE ALBUM, and it is the most-searched BLACKPINK Running Man episode by far. Titled BLACKPINK in Running Man: Deliver Us From Probabilities, it was a rice-cake race in which players tried not to end up with too many — or too few — rice cakes.
It opened with BLACKPINK dancing to “Lovesick Girls,” with cast member Jun So-min joining in as a “fifth member.” In a truth game, everyone wore cat ears that moved when they were startled: ROSÉ teased Jun So-min and Yang Se-chan, JENNIE named LISA as the messiest member, and Lee Kwang-soo picked ROSÉ as the prettiest — which made JENNIE’s ears twitch. If you are searching for “BLACKPINK Running Man 525,” start with the official highlights below.

A note on SBS clip numbersIf you look up BLACKPINK on the official Running Man channel, some classic clips carry tags such as “EP462” or “EP545.” Those numbers refer to the week SBS re-posted the clip, not the episode in which BLACKPINK appeared — episodes 462 and 545 had no BLACKPINK guests. When you search for full episodes, use 330 (2016), 409 and 413 (2018) and 525 (2020).
