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:
“First Plebian. Tear him to pieces, he’s a conspirator!
Cinna. I am Cinna the poet! I am Cinna the poet!
Fourth Plebian. Tear him for his bad verses, tear him for his bad verses.”
—William Shakespeare (1564–1616)
“Here’s to the maiden of bashful fifteen;
Here’s to the widow of fifty;
Here’s to the flaunting extravagant queen;
And here’s to the housewife that’s thrifty.
Let the toast pass,—
Drink to the lass,
I’ll warrant she’ll prove an excuse for the glass.”
—Richard Brinsley Sheridan (1751–1816)
