KARA's Youngji explains why she's called 'wild girl' + proves to be a filial daughter

KARA's Youngji appeared on tvN's 'Wednesday Food Talk' on November 4 where she talked about a lot of interesting things, including her nickname 'wild girl.'

Shin Dong Yup said to her on this day, "You're super adorable and cute.  However, I heard that you eat tremendously like a wild girl."  She said, "I know how to pick up live octopus and the like with my hands and slice it.  That's why I ended up with the nickname 'wild girl,'" surprising everybody.

She also said, "My parents have a coffee shop in Eungam-dong.  The cost of labor seemed like a waste so during my training days, I learned about coffee every Sunday to help out my parents."

Shin Dong Yup said with suspicion, "Is this to promote the coffee shop?"  She denied this with, "I'm saying that I did part-time work.  I like making things."  Jun Hyun Moo added, "Because Youngji made [coffee] for me couple times, I drank it, but it was extremely bitter."

Choi Hyun Suk replied, "Do not make it for people who'd be useless [to you].  Do it for people who want a favor," making everyone laugh at his cunning advice.
