During the group's introduction segment, Cao Lu referred to her slightly-lacking abilities in singing, dancing, Korean, and more by stating, "I'm the sweet potato of FIESTAR. Whatever I do, it's somewhat irritating.


The term Sweet Potato can be used in modern Korean slang to mean that something or someone is irritating as if you'd eaten a mouthful of steamed sweet potatoes without any water, so your mouth becomes very dry! But that doesn't mean you don't go on eating those delicious sweet potatoes, right?


When DJ Kim Shin Young asked if Cao Lu's current on-screen husband Jo Se Ho had taught her the slang term, Cao Lu answered, "No, but I am learning new variety tactics from him."


Do you know a sweet potato in your life?
