South Korean variety TV Show, “Running Man”, will hold an online fan meeting via TikTok, the world’s leading short-form mobile videos, on September 5. The SBS variety show, “Running Man”, has gained massive popularity worldwide since its first broadcast in 2010. Since 2013, Running Man members have been visiting their fans overseas with fan meets and various performances.
Running Man’s overseas fan meetings and performances have been populsar in many regions like Southeast Asia. Previous fan meetings have been successful such as the Ho Chi Minh, Vietnam event in December 2019 and the Manila fan meeting which had to be rescheduled due to the COVID 19 outbreak. However, despite the hurdles, the Manila fan meeting is still recognized as one of the best K-performances, selling out tickets within one hour of going on sale.
The “Running Man 2021 Online Fan Meeting” will be planned and produced by NP C&C, a subsidiary of NPInc., a brand experience content solutions company, and will be held at NP XR STAGE. The fan meeting will also be broadcasted live on the global short-form mobile video platform, TikTok.

TikTok will continue to make efforts to provide better customer experiences to domestic and foreign users.”
