Barefoot, pregnant, educated.

From an article in today's Korea Times, "Married Woman Graduates From Ewha For First Time":
At a first glance, Ki Sung-hwa seems to be just an ordinary student who will soon graduate from university. The 31-year-old woman may look a bit older than her colleagues as she entered the university later in life. But what makes her graduation more meaningful is the fact that she will be the first married woman to graduate from Ewha Womans' University.

The university used to ban a married woman from entering the school until 2003.

Emphasis mine. Damn. Anyway, good for her.
