It's a common misconception, but the Korean alphabet is actually simpler and easier than the English(Latin) alphabet.
It's just 24 letters, and the letters are less detailed than in English.
It just looks complicated to people who doesn't know it because you'll confuse full words/syllables for being single characters.
I know because I confused it like that too for most of my life.
Chinese and Japanese on the other hand, those alphabets are actually wild.
Hangul(Korean alphabet) is objectively super easy.
Personally it took me about 30min to learn basic Hangul. Although it took a long time to speed up my reading-pace.
Even if you're not delving into the language, I recommend learning the alphabet, it's worth it.
At least you'll easily be able to read the name-tags on Running Man. ;)

- The dealer noona is actually a fan favorite as she appears as the main dealer throughout the series, you'll get to see her breaking out of character more often in the future hahaha
- I think the best strategy for Sang-min in the deathmatch was to open the same symbols as Kyung-ran to prevent all the symbols from being revealed, e.g if she opens A, he should also open A right after, and if she opens C in her next turn he should follow suit immediately even if it means its the wrong symbol for him. IMO information is very important in this deathmatch, and once all of the boxes are revealed it would turn into a memorization game (which would put him in a disadvantage). Since she went first, she would also be the first to drop off the belt provided that she didn't get lucky and opened a symbol she needed. It's a gamble but Sang-min still would have a better chance of winning as it would put psychological pressure on Kyung-ran to get the symbols right (which may mess with her memory).
Also, Good Day lasts for 8 episodes, so it will take around 2 months before you get back to Season 2!
