[Dad Jokes] What is a drama where a shrimp is the main character?

Answer

대하드라마(Daeha Drama) which means ‘Epic Drama’ in Korean

Explanation&Learning Korean

This is a pun involving the word ” 대하” (big shrimp) and “대하드라마” (epic drama). In Korean, “대하(Dae ha)” can mean both “epic” and “big shrimp.” So, “대하드라마(Dae ha drama)” can be interpreted both as an “epic drama” in the usual sense and humorously as a “shrimp drama,” where a shrimp is the main character. This kind of wordplay is typical in Korean dad jokes.
