The Good Bad Mother teaser starring Lee Do-hyun and Ra Mi-ran out

The teaser for The Good Bad Mother featuring Lee Do-hyun and Ra Mi-ran was recently released, giving fans a glimpse into the upcoming title. In the short clip, viewers see the mother-son duo face challenges in their pursuit of happiness in life.

The trailer for The Good Bad Mother begins with a truck loaded with pigs arriving in a village, as the narrator says, "Once upon a time, a woman named Young Soon arrived at Jowoori village." Young Soon, who is pregnant, then emerges from the driver's seat.

After giving birth, Young Soon and her husband (portrayed by Jo Jin-woong) name their son Choi Kang-ho, hoping he will grow up to be capable, strong, and influential. However, when Young Soon is forced to raise Kang-ho alone while managing a pig farm, she resorts to being a 'bad mom' to shield her son from the difficulties she's facing.

The teaser provides a glimpse of Young Soon's tough love as she repeatedly places pressure on her son. She tells him, "If you study hard and become a prosecutor, no one can belittle you or bully you." She is also later seen asking her son, "Why would you allow someone to ruin your life?" In response to his mother's harsh words, Kang-ho tears up and says, "My life? When do I ever have my own life?"

Later scenes depict Kang-ho as a cold-hearted prosecutor, living his life according to his mother's plans. However, the teaser hints at a significant turn of events, as Kang-ho is hospitalized and Young Soon tearfully remarks, "This is a heaven-sent opportunity. We can start our lives anew."

The trailer concludes with the question, "Can Kang-ho and Young Soon rediscover happiness?"
