After a successful first season, the celebrity runners return for more exciting challenges in "Running Man Philippines" season 2.

Glaiza, also known as "Boss G," admitted to being short-tempered during the second season.

"Feeling ko mas less yung pikon ko, pero may pikon pa rin kasi si Pirena ako. But siguro kaya naman ako napipikon kasi we really wanted to give our best, and nagmumula yun kasi natatakot ako not just because natalo ako sa mission. Natatakot ako na hindi ko magawa ng maayos yung gusto kong gawin kaya nafufrustrate ako sa sarili ko," Glaiza said during the media conference held at the GMA Studio 7 in Quezon city. 

(I feel like I'm less short-tempered now, but I still get short-tempered because I'm Pirena. But maybe the reason, why I feel this is because we wanted to give our best, and maybe that short-tempered attitude came from me because I have this fear that I won't be able to do it regardless of winning the mission, but not doing the best I can is what frustrates me the most.) 

Despite feeling tense on set and during the mission, Glaiza maintained a calm and respectful demeanor, avoiding any shouting matches.

"Hindi naman kami umaabot sa bangayan ng pagkapikon, siguro yung frustrations lang talaga yung nagpapatrigger sa amin kapag hindi namin nagagawa ng maayos yung mission," she added. 

(We don't get to the point of fighting on set; perhaps our frustrations are triggered when we don't execute the mission correctly.)

When she was asked which runner got into her most, Glaiza truthfully answered Buboy.

"Kay Buboy ako pinaka-napikon, kasi kitang-kita ko yung determination niya, yung hindi talaga siya magpapatalo. Tapos yung strenght niya rin kasi kakaiba. Kaya parang nakakabilib din minsan to see him play," she added. 

(Buboy got me fired all the time because I could clearly see his determination, the fact that he would never give up. Then his strength is also unique. That's why it's also impressive sometimes to see him play)  

In this new season, the runners will brave the cold weather while exploring some of South Korea's most extraordinary locations, including Seoul, Gangwon, Gyeonggi, Mokpo, and Jeju Island. This promises to deliver plenty of fun and good vibes for viewers in each episode.

To make it even more exciting, "Voltes V" star Miguel Tanfelix will be the newest  runner for season 2, joining Glaiza, Mikael, Buboy, Angel and Lexy. 

Runners and celebrity guests will compete in 12 races under stone-cold weather. Fans should watch out for the iconic name tag challenge and games with an overarching theme, such as the Winter Olympics, haunted school, Korean military training, beauty pageant, prison break, and more.

This season's celebrity guests, including Korean superstars Sandara Park, Nancy McDonnie, and Haha of Running Man Korea, are much-awaited and will surely add excitement to the chaos

Pinoy pop stars Josh of SB19 and Unis members Gehlee and Elisa, Pinoy athletes Eric "Eruption" Tai and Mark Striegl, award-winning actress Alessandra de Rossi, and Kapuso stars Rochelle Pangilinan, Herlene Budol, Paul Salas, Archie Alemania, Michael Sager, and Bianca Umali are also joining in the fun this season. 

Original Filipino runner Ruru Madrid will be making a special appearance in the upcoming season.
