Some background story:

For those who watch Running Man, you should be familiar with the casts' nicknames. Here is the list:
  • Ji Suk-jin (지석진) : Impala / Race Starter / Big-nose older brother (왕코형님)
  • Kim Jong-kook (김종국) : Tiger (호랑이) / Commander (능력자) / Kookie (꾹이)
  • Yoo Jae-suk (유재석) : Grasshopper (매뚜기) / Yoo-ruce Willis / Yoo-mes Bond
  • Lee Kwang-soo (이광수) : Giraffe (기린) / Kwangvatar
  • Song Ji-hyo (송지효) : Ace / Mong Ji-hyo (멍지효 / Blank Ji-hyo)
  • Haha (하하) : Haroro
  • Gary (개리) : Straight-going Gary / Gary-sswi (개리쒸)
Ji Suk-jin is so helpless and weak at Race game that he is always ousted early. That's when the nickname Impala (about the same time as Kwang-soo got his Giraffe nickname) and Race Starter came about.

He almost never beats Jong-kook at any games. That's why, when I saw this news about an impala outwitted the cheetahs going after it, I was like, "Awesome! Finally a herbivore successfully beats its predator! If only Suk-jin can do it like the impala..."

For those in distress or feeling extremely sad, I suggest you try watching this variety show to brighten up your day :)
