〈Wife〉是韓國女子團體(G)I-DLE為第二張錄音室專輯《2》所錄製的歌曲。這首單曲由Cube娛樂於2024年1月22日搶先發行。由田小娟、Pop Time、Daily和Likey共同創作的這首泡泡糖音樂風格流行音乐，透過雙關語，一方面俏皮地嘲諷社會大眾對傳統妻子角色的期待，同時巧妙地穿插了性暗示意味的歌詞。
2024年1月8日，Cube娛樂宣布(G)I-dle將於1月29日發行她們的第二張錄音室專輯《2》[1]。四天後,發布了回歸預告片[2]。1月13日,公開了宣傳時程表[3]。1月21日,釋出了〈Wife〉的音樂錄影帶預告[4]。隔天，〈Wife〉單曲連同音樂錄影帶一同發行[5]。
〈Wife〉由田小娟創作，歌曲的調性為B小調，速度為每分鐘124拍[6]。這首歌被描述為一首以泡泡糖音樂貝斯為基礎的流行歌曲，歌詞大膽、「以隐喻卻露骨的方式吸引注意力[7]」。歌曲以「烹飪」和「打掃」為主題,透過充滿性暗示、卻又帶有該團體獨特含蓄特質的歌詞,巧妙地嘲諷了「妻子」的刻板印象[8]。
〈Wife〉發行後，網民們對歌詞的解讀引發了激烈的辯論。一些人認為歌詞喚起了露骨的性幻想，而另一些人則將其視為表達自由的體現，描繪了一個「拒絕順應被動妻子刻板印象」的獨立女性。這首歌的爭議內容，引發了韓國音樂廣播公司關於是否適合播出的討論。SBS和MBC認為可以播出，但KBS則以歌曲含有挑逗意味為由，判定其不適合播放[9]。儘管KBS在1月25日做出了這樣的決定，但Cube娛樂拒絕尋求重新審議。他們表示：「〈Wife〉與該團體的廣播宗旨不符,因此她們不會根據田小娟的決定來修改歌詞,這證明了她對藝術表達的堅持[10][11]。」
