Choi Ji Woo and Kim Ji Sook's unique relationship was brought to light.

The two are in SBS Monday/Tuesday drama "The Suspicious Housemaid" (Script Baek Woon Chul, Director Kim Hyung Shik) as mother-in-law and daughter-in-law.

In the drama, housemaid Bok Nyuh (played by Choi Ji Woo) goes through a lot because of her mother-in-law Kim Ji Sook that comes out of nowhere.  The mother-in-law believes that her son and husband died because of bok Nyuh and started cursing her, "Never laugh again in your life." The reason she wasn't smiling was because of her mother-in-law.

However, this conflict had started ten years ago and they have played the same roles three times already.  At this, people have said, "Choi Ji Woo is having Kim Ji Sook as her mother-in-law for ten years!"

Choi Ji Woo married Kwon Sang Woo (playing Cha Song Ju) in the 2003 SBS drama "Stairway to Heaven" and Kim Ji Sook played Kwon Sang Woo's mother's role.  In addition in 2008, in SBS "Star's Lover," Choi Ji Woo married the role of Yoo Ji Tae (playing role of Kim Chul Soo) and had a happy family but the mother was again Kim Ji Sook.  Their relationship went on with "The Suspicious Housemaid."  Coincidentally, the two met as mother-in-law and daughter-in-law every five years and these were all in SBS dramas.

Since many mid-aged actors appear in a lot of pieces, they play a certain type of motherly or fatherly role.  Nonetheless, it's special that these two have met in three pieces.  One staff member said, "It's unique that they were in three pieces together but fact that they were mother-in-law and daughter-in-law is probably first in the Korean drama history."

In the drama, Bok Nyuh is in a position where she was kneeling and begging for her mother-in-law's forgiveness as she was suffering but in real time, Choi Ji Woo really respects and follows Kim Ji Sook well.  Kim Ji Sook also welcomed the connection with Choi Ji Woo and people have said she is really taking care of her on set.  Kim Ji Sook has also had a great solid background from acting in plays and she is also the older sister of director Kim Ji Woon.

Meanwhile, "The Suspicious Housemaid"  is broadcast every Monday and Tuesday at 10PM.
