T-ara’s Soyeon explains her “68 Soyeon” nickname

T-ara’s Soyeon made a guest appearance on MBC’s “Quiz That Changes The World” this week, where she finally gave an explanation behind her nickname, ‘68 Soyeon’.

During the episode, Soyeon stated, “I was born in ‘87, but everyone probably thinks I was born in ‘68.”

Gagwoman Kim Shin Young added, “We used to appear on broadcasts together, and I found out that she knew all the lyrics and dance moves to really old songs; even the way she talks is different from how kids normally speak these days.”

Soyeon went on to explain, “I grew up with my grandmother. About all those old songs… I had a lot of aunts in the house, and they all liked having a lot of fun. I was there with my aunts when they were at the peak of their golden ages, and I think I just naturally learned songs through that.”

When asked what kind of songs her aunts were into, Soyeon stood up to perform a few trot songs (and their respective choreographies), proving just why she earned the nickname, ‘68 Soyeon’.

On the latest episode of ‘We got Married‘ that aired on the 23rd, the Lee Jang Woo and Ham Eun Jung couple spent the last day of their honeymoon in Malaysia.

The two were enjoying themselves on the beach when suddenly Lee Jang Woo offered to give Ham Eun Jung a sand bath, and started burying her beneath the sand.

Once she was buried deep and left immobilised under sand, he very casually laid next to her, by which his on-air wife was a bit taken aback.

He stared at her for a good long while then acted like he was going to dust off the sand on her face when all of a sudden, he planted a kiss, right on her cheek. Embarrassed, he quickly ran towards the ocean.

Ham Eun Jung got herself up out of the sand and further embarrassed her on-air husband as she demanded to know if he buried her just to steal a kiss, which evoked a lot of laughter from the viewers.

Meanwhile, the scene where the couple performed T-ARA’s “Bo Beep Bo Beep” dance for a foreign couple is gaining much attention as it’s becoming viral on the internet.
