Cooperation, Western Proverb


It takes two to tango.

- Western Proverb

A common idiomatic expression which suggests something in which more than one person or other entity are paired in an inextricably-related and active manner, occasionally with negative connotations.

The phrase originated in a song, Takes Two to Tango, which was written and composed in 1952 by Al Hoffman and Dick Manning. The lyrics and melody were popularized by singer Pearl Bailey's 1952 recording.

탱고 추는 데는 둘이 필요하다.

- 서양속담
