Seohyun & Yong Hwa fail to find sweet potatoes

The Seohyun and Jung Yong Hwa couple visited Kanghwado in order to farm sweet potatoes for this week’s episode of MBC’s “We Got Married” and ended up harvesting nothing.

Although the two started off the hunt for sweet potatoes on a bright note, even sorting out who they would share their sweet potatoes with, and Seohyun claiming all of the sweet potatoes in the field as hers, the couple was met with an empty field that produced nothing other than roots.

In a fit of anger, the couple dug through the dirt as hard as possible, with Seohyun stating, “How can this make sense? There’s really not even one? There’s only rocks. Come out, sweet potatoes, come out!

Eventually, they made their way back with the two tiny ones they found, while planning to make a different dish and coming up with different excuses for the people they originally planned to give their harvest to.

SNSD Seohyun’s driver’s license was finally revealed on this week’s episode of ‘We Got Married’.

In contrast to her constant smiles on camera, her license picture displayed a more her haughty, pompous look, making the viewers laugh.

On the show, Seohyun also had a difficult time driving the truck, as she was still a newbie to driving. The moment she drove out of the side street, she blocked the road with her truck which caused the other drivers to stop. To this, all Seohyun could say was “I’m sorry”, and reversed back into the side street.
