Through the SBS Wednesday/Thursday drama "You Who Is From The Stars" (script Park Ji Eun, director Jang Tae Yoo), the "Chosun insult" "That Byung Ja wench is turning tricks" will be popular.

On the 2nd episode of "You Who Is From The Stars" broadcast on the evening of December 19th, Do Min Joon (played by Kim Soo Hyun) said to Chun Song Yi (played by Jun Ji Hyun) "That Byung Ja wench is turning tricks". Chun Song Yi was upset saying, "Did you just call me a wench?"

Do Min Joon explained what the phrase meant. He said, "The 13th year of King Go Jong was a Byung Ja year but that year went through a tough drought and all the cofferdams in Korea dried out. People looked at that and said dried cofferdam. That became the origin of the word, "Arrogant" in Korean.

Moreover, Do Min Joon said, "You say that to people who don't know themselves and prance around. That Byung Ja wench is turning wench"" and said indirectly that Chun Song Yi is arrogant. At this, Chun Song Yi said, "Are you cursing me with not even modern day curses but Chosun curses" and was dumbfounded.

Afterwards, Do Min Joon who was drunk and came to see Chun Song Yi took in, "That Byung Ja wench is turning tricks" in a different way.

Chun Song Yi said, "Are you the only one that says Chosun curses? This Byung Ja wench will be beat" and said to Do Min Joon. Chun Song Yi said "cofferdam" as "a beating" and this time, Do Min Joon was silent with nothing to say.

After the episode, viewers started the trend of saying, "That Byung Ja wench is turning tricks." Viewers said, "Did people from Chosun dynasty curse like that?" "That Byung Ja wench is turning tricks, I should use that" "This Chosun curse is so charismatic" "This will be a trend" and showed great responses. Even on the portal sites, "Byung Ja wench and Cofferdam" went up and down as viewers showed great interest.

Meanwhile, the 2nd episode of "You Who Is From A Star" rated 18.3% nationally and kept its first place among Wednesday/Thursday dramas. The 3rd episode of "You Who Is From A Star" will be aired at 10PM on December 25th.
