A Chinese TV show similar to SBS 'Running Man' has become a hot topic among netizens.

On January 23rd, a topic titled, 'Running Man of the Mainland' surfaced in an online community board with these two photos. In them, netizens have noticed the similarity to Running Man, which includes the team uniforms, the pink and light blue teams, and even the Velcro on their backs, which is presumed to be where their name tags were.

Furthermore, fans who remember the first episode of Running Man featuring Lee Hyori and Hwang Jung Eum as guests, noticed that the game that they played with the clothes rack are repeated here.

This show, which goes by the name 'Awesome Sunday', has previously drawn criticism for being similar to the Running Man format. An online community board had previously posted a link that demonstrates the similarity.

Netizens responded with comments such as, "Anyone can notice the similarity", "Did they copy? This is exactly like Running Man's 1st episode", and "I wonder if they can match the original's quality".
