The festival featured actors from the new Sunday drama 'Diamonds Sleeping in the Sea' and other shows. Kwon Eunbi participated in various projects with co-stars from the movie 'Just Dropped My Smartphone - Final Chapter - Final Hacking Game.' K and HARUA also appeared in the studio. K, who had been challenging quizzes since the start of the broadcast, expressed his intention to join the Akasaka 5-chome mini-marathon, saying, 'I haven't run since then, but since I joined the TBS 'Lavit!' family, I think I'll give it a try.' Expectations were high for K, who has previously ranked first. Kwon Eunbi also declared her confidence, stating, 'I love running.' This time, former Japanese record holder Yuta Shitara and last year's champion Fumiya Sano from OWV participated, with Shitara finishing first and Sano fourth. While cheering in the studio with a HARUA board, K finished sixth. After the race, he remarked, 'Marathons are something you continue.' Kwon Eunbi also showed her determination while running, despite struggling. Notably, she drew attention during a concentration challenge, where she repeatedly hit the bar and tried various methods to get through, earning cheers from the audience. Nako, who watched the program, posted on her Instagram story, 'Ah, it was too funny. Good job, sister (laughs).' Kwon Eunbi quoted this, thanking Nako for her support and also expressed gratitude to Sakura Miyawaki from LE SSERAFIM. K finished fourth in the 'All-Star Thanksgiving Festival 2024 Spring,' with OWV's Sano taking first place. The trailer and poster for Kwon Eunbi's movie 'Just Dropped My Smartphone - Final Chapter' were released, with the film set to premiere on November 1.
