Identical twins Emily Bushnell and Molly Sinert just met, but being together on The Amazing Race fast-paced their bonding. The Amazing Race features a cast of team members with a strong bond, so they compete well. Emily and Molly present a different angle by using the show as an opportunity to learn more about each other. The Amazing Race provided them with a unique experience of traveling to multiple countries and competing in challenges that require good communication.

Emily and Molly are identical twins who were born in South Korea in 1985 and separated at birth. In 2021, the twins took an at-home DNA test for different reasons. After learning about the other's existence, the two decided to meet each other for the first time on their 36th birthday. Since then, they have grown closer and are in season 34 of The Amazing Race. People interviewed them about their time on the show and how it helped their relationship.

The show has allowed Emily and Molly to get closer by taking them away from all their responsibilities in the real world. The Amazing Race 34 features all kinds of challenges while teams travel around the world. Each team must work closely together to advance further in the race. In the interview Molly, said, "We would have never gotten this close had we not been able to spend time without phones or away from family, just one-on-one together."

Meeting at such a late age in their life makes the bonding experience difficult at times. Emily and Molly have their own lives, states away from each other and with their own families. The Amazing Race offers a unique experience away from all those responsibilities. During their time in the race, they only have each other to focus on and rely on in challenges. Therefore, the show gives them uninterrupted time with each other.

The show is also a chance for them to learn more about each other. The Amazing Race 34 features twists and challenges that require athletic ability, problem-solving skills, and odd talents. In these challenges, they can learn more about each other by seeing who can carry through the legs of the race. It is a way for them to learn about the little things that might not come up in regular conversation.

Season 34 of The Amazing Race has just started, so there is more to see from Emily and Molly. They finished 5th in the first episode and 7th in the second. Communication is a vital part of their game that will hopefully come with ease as the challenges progress. Regardless of the results, the twins can take this invaluable experience as progress toward building their relationship.
