Bad Housewife (불량주부, Bul-lyang joo-boo) is a Korean drama series, produced and aired in 2005 by SBS.
The show revolves around the lives of Koo Soo-han (Son Chang Min) and Choi Mi-na (Shin Ae Ra), a married couple with a daughter, Song-yi (Lee Young Yoo) and their neighbors and acquaintances. The show regularly made jokes about the stereotypical themes Korean dramas usually have, for example that one of the characters contracts a terminal disease. At the end of each episode there was also a skit called Useful Tips for Everyday Life.
Famous quotes containing the words bad and/or housewife:
“There are certain things in which mediocrity is intolerable: poetry, music, painting, public eloquence. What torture it is to hear a frigid speech being pompously declaimed, or second-rate verse spoken with all a bad poet’s bombast!”
—Jean De La Bruyère (1645–1696)
“This is the first national administration we’ve ever seen where the housewife couldn’t afford to buy groceries and the farmer couldn’t afford to grow them.”
—Jimmy Carter (James Earl Carter, Jr.)
