Why did Yoona shed tears on Shinhwa broadcast?

Yoona will be having hidden camera prank on JTBC's Shinhwa Broadcast on February 10.

On the show, SNSD members and Shinhwa worked together to pull a prank towards Yoona. Yoona, who is the most excited to appear on the show revealed that she is a big supporter of Shinhwa broadcast. Unfortunately, Shinhwa reveals a survey that resulted to Yoona as the worst SNSD member in real life which made Yoona very disappointed.

Moreover, when asked to team up, no one picked Yoona and got treated as outcast. Yoona, on the other hand, tried not to be affected and continued.The moment she realized it was a hidden camera prank, she couldn't help but cried.

The producer of the show, Yoon Hyun Joon, says, "SNSD said that Yoona is the most aware so we're all nervous. Fortunately, Shinhwa and SNSD members did a great job for this hidden camera prank. Especially Jeon Jin."
