It seems that there's no Christmas present for Running Man fans as issues kept on piling up regarding the show.
On December 14, former "Running Man" member and host Kang Gary was reported to have all of his Instagram posts deleted right after the news about Song Ji Hyo and Kim Jong Kook's decision about leaving the show went viral, according to Koreaboo.
In an earlier report here in Kpop Starz, it was discussed that both Song Ji Hyo and Kim Jong Kook have decided to leave the show as supported by their respective labels, MY Company and Maroo Entertainment, after the two members were removed without prior notice by the producers of "Running Man".
Although the producers and executives of "Running Man" have already released an official apology regarding the said incident, fans, critics, and other celebrities can't help but feel bad about the said instance.
Despite having no official statement from the side of the other half of the Monday couple yet, netizens are speculating that this could be Gary's way of expressing his disappointment about the news.
Aside from deleting all of his 88 photos on Instagram, Gary also unfollowed all of his colleagues and friends amounting to a total of 145 accounts.
In an earlier news, Gary left "Running Man" last month to focus more on his music career as a part of LeeSsang. Although Gary has expressed his interest in leaving the show long way back in the early years of the show, his decision last month was consensual unlike what happened to Song Ji Hyo and Kim Jong Kook.
Avid viewers of "Running Man" have actually noticed the grim atmosphere in the show after Gary's resignation from the show and was actually speculating the possible end of the show. Some even guessed that some members might follow Gary's resignation or there will be overhauls happening towards the show.
While waiting for Kang Gary's official statement, "Running Man" producers have already stated that Song Ji Hyo and Kim Jong Kook won't be leaving the show anymore and instead, the show will be put into an end in February 2017 with the six members of the show.
