- Broadcast date: Aug. 2- Starring: BTS, Eric NamThe second day of Naver’s real-time broadcasting app “V” featured another dose of BTS’ charms with Episode 2 of “Run! B-T-S!”In the 8-minute clip, the BTS members were put through three rounds of competition to determine the “best man” among them. The three rounds were: a patience test, a sexy lips test and a “cushion” game.In the patience test, each member filled his mouth with water and was tickled by the other members until he spat the water out. Suga got the round to a formidable start with 14 seconds, while Rap Monster lasted 1 second and Jimin just 4 seconds.

When Jin offered to sit out the tickling session for V because he spat on V’s face in the earlier round, the members sat the two down facing each other for a one-on-one fight. The fight didn’t last long, though -- troublemaker V quickly “polluted” the scene.Round 1 went to Jungkook, who held his water in to the very end.The second round was to discover who had the sexiest lips. Each member put on red lipstick and kissed a plastic sheet, opening their mouth as wide as possible. Although Rap Monster claimed that he was the “dark horse,” he measured just 8 cm while Jimin had 9.2 cm, and V came out on top with 9.5 cm.

The third round was a version of the game “Musical Chairs” using cushions. The floor was set up with fewer cushions than members standing, and the members had to quickly find a cushion to sit on when the music stopped.

After a semifinal round accompanied by a chorus of BTS’ debut song “No More Dream,” the last two standing were Jungkook and V. The battle was intense, with the two staring each other down even while dancing to their song -- Jimin helped lighten the mood by dancing his heart out in the background -- but Jungkook’s lightning-speed dive won him the third round, and the ultimate victory.
