Remember the awesome Run@Seoul event we announced earlier? �Well, the five runners who will be taking on the event have now been announced!
As a refresher, from November 19 to 23, runners from all around the world will gather in Seoul for an awesome-packed 5-day running trip. Runners will be traveling with action cameras attached to their bodies, and their videos will broadcast live globally.�
Viewers who applied to be "controllers" will also have the opportunity to give runners various missions to complete during the trip. Wherever the controller says to go, the runner will go, and all together the runners, controllers, and viewers will be able to experience every nook and cranny of Seoul. �If you never visited Seoul and always wanted to visit a special landmark or place you heard about, tell the runner to go there and you can experience it through video. Pretty awesome!�
