So as a 1 hr story is not a story you can develop too deeply. Having that fact in consideration is a good story, with mildly developed characters. The acting is really good though and this makes it worth seeing.
It is a shame that this episode generated so much controversy specially when there is nothing that's shocking enough to censor it, but it is a different culture and they still have a long way to go for this sorts of themes.

The music is nothing special, but not bad. The acting is good, and like I said, the story is really nothing groundbreaking except for its subject matter, which does add a very interesting twist. The episode proceeds through three generations, from youngest to oldest. They do interact and show up in each others' segments, but the focus goes from youngest to oldest. I found the oldest couple's story the most interesting and the saddest. The story does resist the urge to go too melodramatic, despite the inherent sadness of most of the story, so it feels a little more real. Thus, the ordinariness of the story could be considered its strength.
Just a note: I think there's been some confusion about Daughters of Bilitis Club. It was never intended to be a series. It's a KBS Drama Special, a single episode format series. It was never "canceled" as such, but a re-airing of the episode was cut short by KBS. The episode did air in its entirety in its original timeslot, however. At least, that's how I understand it. :)
