I'm watching and taping the show. I haven't decided whether I like it or not as yet, but I will watch a few more episodes at least. I do enjoy watching all the familiar actors and actresses from stories past.

I'm a little lukewarm so far. The only character I really like is the overstressed Korean TV drama writer. ;D She's a little bratty and self-centered, but I still get a kick out of her.
Really, though: there's too many characters and plotlines going in this show, I think. KBS has been doing this a lot lately; I wish they'd pare them down a bit.
Best scene in this show so far was that shot of the restaurant's sign, featuring an image of the mother-in-law's big, scowling face. Man, is that scary or what? ;D

I'm watching it, and I am liking it a lot. There are some plotlines I think will drive me crazy, but I'm looking forward to seeing what happens.
BTW, the older actress who plays the restaurant family's neighbor has become ill in real life. I think she has liver or kidney disease. She has "received treatment" (as they say in the dramas) and is doing better and is recovering at her home on Jeju Island, but she had to either leave the show or take time off from it, so if her character disappears a couple of weeks from now, you'll know why.

I'm liking it because I so enjjoy the recycled actors/actresses. Our always lovely Lady Han from Dae Jang Guem and WML. I love the scenes of Halmoni praying in the temple and the christian women doing their prayers. With only 2 episodes the plots and characters are a little confusing ... but compared to DJY, this will be a piece of cake to sort out. The PigHalmoni will add a great deal of amusement as this story progresses. Thankfully it appears that there won't be episode upon episode of tears and 'I'm sorry....'

when does this drama air? in Chicago it airs at about 7:45pm or 7:50pm ... or 7:55pm... you know how CH41 is. I have to believe that PippiBella made a typo. It's not 6:45pm. The actress who plays the always-picked-on daughter in law has played such a wide variety of roles. In Hotelier she played a really high-powered executive... and here she is, sweeping the sidewalk in fear of PigHalmoni. (PH)

thanks kathleen and pippibella! I thought that happy woman was still running. I didn't like that show so I gave up watching... If DIL is good, I'll start watching from next week. Thanks again.

Is this the show that Lee Pilmo ("Uchan" from Ajumma) is on?

Yes, dspring, it is, even though he really plays a different type of role so far.
