Lee Kwang-soo, who has been a permanent fixture in the popular Korean variety show Running Man since the beginning, is leaving the show.

According to his agency, the 35-year-old is stepping away as he has been unable to keep up with the physical demands of the show ever since suffering an injury in a car accident last year.
