Popular group apologizes for ‘bad’ parody of ‘The Lovely Runner’

They were a little worried about being sued.

Even for those who don’t watch K-Dramas, The adorable runner is probably a household name. K-Drama starred Kim Hye Yoon AND Hi Woo Seok as a fangirl and aspiring director I’m Sol and swimmer turned idol Ryu Sun Jae (also romanized as Ryu Seon Jae), respectively.

The K-Drama was one of the most popular of the year and has since been parodied several times.

After the poster gained traction, Tablo shared a surprising update in which some of his previously unspoken “concerns” were addressed.

In the clip shared on Instagram, Tablo explained how the poster went viral and expressed his concern that they would be sued for it.

However, Byeon’s company director Woo Seok liked the post and shared the picture on their story with a laughing message.

In the shared story, the director tagged Byeon Woo Seok, which means he probably saw the image. Tablo then apologized and, in the caption of the post, invited the director to the Epik High concert!

I will also send you the Park Kyu bong (Epik High light stick), so come to the concert!

It seems fitting that this hilarious situation has an equally hilarious ending.
