Yes, but why don't they scold her effectively? They should answer some of her complaints. "It's not that we hate you, it's that you're not trying. What have you done to fit into this family? Why are you treating your MIL like a maid? Do you really think it's okay to ask someone to cook for you, then tell her to leave the house, then trash the house and expect her to clean it up?" That last part made me so mad! Why wouldn't MIL help Sua make one or 2 dishes? Why should she make a mess trying to cook everything and do it wrong? People don't learn to cook that way. It's bit by bit, by helping the cook until you learn how. It is dramatic tho.

That whole house-warming was ludicrous. Everything was prepared for the "party" without Sua lifting a finger. The brat pack trashes the place, and jumps on the furniture? How old are they? Mr. Na should have made them clean up.

The apologizing annoys me too, Soapy. If I was accused of something somebody else did, I sure as heck wouldn't say I'm sorry. I wonder too if it's plot driven or part of the culture. Does anybody know?

Part of the culture, at least among the very conservative/traditional. You don't talk back to elders, and "talking back" essentially means answering, correcting, standing up for yourself, even if it's politely. I don't get it myself, and it's very frustrating, but you just have to take it for granted after a while.... And sometimes I've seen characters "talk back" to their elders, and their message is not heard. It only serves to inflame the elder. Someone who said, "But I didn't do it!" would only get the response, "WHY ARE YOU TALKING BACK TO ME?" LOL. Wouldn't help a bit.

I don't get it! when someone gets married and moves in with the inlaw, her family cannot interfere with what the MIL is doing or saying, right? so why is grandma always at the inlaws complaining how her grand daughter is made out of sugar and can't even wash a dish!! look how she treats donji!!! doesn't make sense to me.... they should just move out. everyone will be happy then. then seojerk can eat out every day because his little queen won't cook or cook, so they' will have a maid...

Exactly PippiBella, what a double standard. She ( Grandma ) should look at her own actions.

If Grandma didn't get upset at either seeing the evidence that her g'daughter is a lazy pig in her new home, or at the way Sua yelled at her last night, there is no hope for that woman.

Thanks for the info, Lucy. I do remember that the one time Dongji tried to "talk" to her MIL (something about Sua, maybe she should go home to her husband more) Mil shot back, " You wouydn't say that if she were your real daughter!"

Isn't it FRUSTRATING? Like, everyone assumes that the broken picture of Sua's mother is Dongji's fault, and that she did it on purpose. But I bet if she said, "Chan did it, and it was an accident," MIL would just yell at her anyway and then go lie down in her room, swearing under her breath and feeling herself very ill-used. (As always.)

sua complaining about being bored and trapped in a small room, makes me think that paris hilton probably acted the same way when she went to prison. is she her long lost sister?

yeah you are so right! but reading sheila's summary of future episodes it doesn't seem like she ever learns anything! especially cleaning her room, lol. ;D (this is, in no way indication of a spoiler. if any one has taken it that way i am sorry. it is simply a observation of past behavior is a good indicator of future behavior. once again i am sorry.)

Please don't reference future episodes even if nothing of real significance is revealed.
