## Summary

#### Opening Game: Navigation Race

The first task given to the members in the opening segment was to find the martial arts platform located near Suwon Stadium. The first person to arrive will get to select who'll be in their team for the rest of the race.

**Result:** Kwang-soo arrived first and picked Yoo Jae-suk, Kang Gary, Haha and Song Ji-hyo as his teammates. Ji Suk-jin was not present when the opening was filmed and was automatically assigned to the Home Team.

#### 1st Mission: Find the hidden Golden Piggy Banks

Based on a given hint, the two teams must race to find the location of all 4 of the hidden Golden Piggy Banks. The hint each team was given was a video clip of the South Korean football team scoring a game-winning goal against Italy in the 2002 FIFA World Cup.

**Result:** The race ended when all 4 Golden Piggy Banks were found. The Home Team gained the lead by finding three out of the four Golden Piggy Banks in the World Cup Memorial Hall.

*Minigame: Rock-Paper-Scissors*. After the mission ended, Ji Suk-jin suggested playing a round of rock-paper-scissors, where the winning team would receive one Golden Piggy Bank from the loser. The Away Team lost this suggested game, causing the Home Team to gain all four Piggy Banks from the first mission.

#### 2nd Mission: Cheering Squad Speed Game

One team member is assigned to give clues to the rest of their team and must stand in the audience seats. Over the nosie made by a 40-man cheer squad, the rest of the team must try and guess the answer.

**Result:** **Home Team won**. After two rounds each, Home Team managed to guess more successful answers than the Away Team, winning a Golden Piggy Bank that contained ₩500,000 (~$500 USD).

#### 3rd Mission: Photo Zone

Whichever team has the most faces of their team members visible in the picture wins. The team that won the most rounds will be the overall winner.

**Result:** **Away Team won**. Although the Home Team did originally beat the Away Team in the main mission, both teams decided on additional 1v1 rounds to determine who the overall winner would be. The first 1v1 match was Song Ji-hyo v Goo Ha-ra, which ended in a tie. The following match was between Kang Gary and Ji Suk-jin, in which Gary won, earning ₩500,000 (~$500 USD) for the Away Team.

#### 4th Mission: Find the hidden Golden Piggy Banks

Both teams were instructed to find their team swimsuits and travel to the swimming pool. There, they must find the 5 Golden Piggy Banks that were hidden in that location.

**Result:** The race ended when all 5 Golden Piggy Banks were found. Although the Away Team had a ten minute headstart, they weren't able to find all 5 Golden Piggy Banks before the Home Team arrived. In total, the Away Team found 3/5 of the Golden Piggy Banks.

#### 5th Mission: Cumulative Height Diving

The team members must choose a diving board to jump from (1.5 m, 3.5 m, 5 m, 7.5 m or 10 m). Once all the team members have jumped, the heights that they jumped from would be added together. The team with the highest total would win.

**Result:** To be revealed in Episode 3.
