For fans in Hong Kong who were unable to make it to the event, fret not as producers of "Running Man" have confirmed that there would be seven more cities included in the RM Special Tour. This is not the first annual fan meeting held by the show as it has managed to take place in a number of Asian countries.

"We've prepared an eight-city fan meeting tour," stated a representative of "Running Man" in a report by Soompi, adding, "After Wuhan, China, it will progress based on considerations of the members' commitments."

After Hong Kong, reports claim that the next fan meeting would proceed to Wuhan in China. For now, fans should have to wait for the next announcements as to where and when the fan meeting would take place.
