Comments

AJ Apr 04 2021 11:06 pm I have to say, "No Matter What" is quite inferior compared to the previous daily drama in its time slot ("Brilliant Heritage"). The way repentance and forgiveness are packed into the last 1-2 episodes simply doesn't cut it. Poor execution of story-archs. And "Brilliant Heritage" has better acting too, particularly that of Park In-Hwan.

Kimberley Apr 03 2021 11:05 pm Is this just a season finale? Would like this to continue.

Mike Apr 03 2021 11:04 am I was satisfied and happy and content with the feel-good ending. It was good that the one guy who deserved to go to prison did. I was happy with the last scene where everyone came together with the seemingly healthy Han Jesu, very heart-warming and I was good with that ending, that I could move on to the next wonderful korean drama! (Note: as someone who is in medicine, in real life, terminal liver cancer means "terminal", herbs or natural cures are foolish (ask family of Steve Jobs).

Michele Mar 30 2021 10:48 am Very good K Drama. It was a bit rushed the last 2 episodes and the ending was very hokey, but overall I liked it a lot and would recommend it.

Yup Mar 27 2021 7:16 pm Hae-Sim deserves a better husband than Joong-Han. He is damaged beyond repair.

Loretta Mar 25 2021 12:11 pm The last 2 eps. They could have had it 10 eps ago gave us more time with JS and AR being happy together but no we just get to only about 10 minutes out of 120 eps. Not good writers for this way of ending this many eps

Smokey Mar 24 2021 6:09 am I have no idea how they'll wrap this up in three episodes. It's clearly going to be a rushed ending at this point. It's like the staff didn't realize they were rapidly approaching the end, and now are trying to fit all this stuff in. I'm sure we'll have a time skip Thursday or Friday (maybe even both), but dang.

Kris Mar 21 2021 11:04 pm Mr Shin needs to be arrested.

Maria Veronica Susilo Mar 19 2021 5:35 am Pls make final eps less soapy, and don't make Byeo Ri lost her new found parent - don't be so heartless. Punish Kim Won Tae, it is ridiculous that he is out of reach by law. I wish grandpa moved back to his old house and enjoy his olden days with Byeo Ri and Kim Bo Ra who is expecting Dae Ro's child

Kris Mar 18 2021 7:16 am Enough already. Looking for something new in the time slot. Only care about the dad, grandpa, newly found daughter and son (and friend). Every other character can be swept away in a flood or something. It reminds me of Liver or Die.

Kiana Mar 14 2021 9:19 am I hope you don’t kill Han Eok-Shim. It will a big mistake on the drama. The little girl just found her dad and now you make him have terminal liver cancel that has spread to other organs of his body and only a month to live. I hope you come up with a miracle to keep him alive. If he dies, my family will be done watching. Sin Joong-Han’s character is going on too long with his temper. You can kill his character. Kim Won-Tae commits crime and even with evidence he gets away with it? Westerners interprets it as the law is weak to punish criminals.

Susan Mar 12 2021 8:17 am Please get rid of Bora's father. Can't stand him!

kweenie Mar 05 2021 6:56 am i truly enjoyed this drama especially for ari and junsoo but when all things got dragged and the storyline were somehow too slow for me, it just so frustrating :( i hate how the facts bora and ari got involved in a lot of things and it seems to be very difficult for them to have someone they love.

ps: to ari and junsoo, god damn just say 'i love you' to each other please! im about to lose my mind here .-.

Kris Feb 26 2021 6:53 pm When with this thing end and will something of quality replace it.

She will lose the baby or they will take the baby from her. It’s really all that is left in this mess. I smell a health issue coming along. She will be donating to keep some IL alive after the pregnancy.

Why is she still there? It was temp marriage to get her family off her back. Move in with little sister for a bit. That IL couple is about to poison her.

They have golden chairs but can’t afford a washing machine or dry cleaning for a blanket? She was perfectly happy single in the studio apartment.

Joey Feb 25 2021 6:31 pm Good lord. Joong-Han is growing more unhinged as time goes by. I know it'll never happen, because these daily KBS dramas always have happy endings despite all the truly awful things that happen to the people in them, but I would love for Hae-Sim to divorce this guy. I mean, he smacked his daughter in the second week of episodes. He pushed Bo-Ra away when she tried to calm him down today. When is he going to smack his wife?

I wish people would just be honest with him. Yes, it's his fault the grandpa sold his home. Yes, it's his fault the grandpa decided to move to a retirement home instead of into his daughter's house. Yes, it's his fault the grandpa is now missing. It's his fault Ah-Ri is living in the lions den and about to miscarry. It's his fault his first wife lived in a sauna and died young.

RDRGS Feb 23 2021 11:42 pm At first I was enjoying this show so much. But then the in laws are way too mean to A Ri. Shin Joong Han also drags his hate story for years. Wth is wrong with this guy? It is clear that his ex wife did not cheat on him. And I remember from the first few episodes, A Ri told him that if only Joong Han was half as good as he is now to the current mom, their original family would have not been broken. Joong Han should have moved on long back. His temper is bad, as well. I also don't like the A Ri keeps on working too late despite knowing that she needs to sleep well so that the baby will develop fully. Ayayay!

Angie Feb 23 2021 9:23 pm Ari's mother-in-law is expecting that Byeori's dad will thank her for looking after the child while living with them...hahaha...didn't she not remember that her husband was the reason why Byeori's dad got bankrupt? Or she don't know about that. Will they still dwell on this in the story? I am also not sure if Junsu knows about this either....

Joey Feb 19 2021 7:01 am I'm also worried Ah-Ri will lose the baby. I really hope they don't take the story there.

If she does lose it though, I don't think her and Joon-Soo will divorce. He seems to genuinely have feelings for her, and she's just been too stubborn to realize she's starting to as well. In a sad way, losing the baby might finally get her to let him in.

My biggest fear isn't that Ah-Ri loses her baby, but that all these awful people won't face consequences and instead get redeemed in the end. These daily dramas always have these awful villain characters that do some genuinely terrible things and they eventually get redeemed. Unasked Family, the show airing this time last year, had the usual evil CEO and his son-in-law who basically murdered the female lead's husband and tried to ruin and kill her when she got close to the truth, and in the end they got to hang out in prison and get forgiven by the people they hurt. We'll probably see this series end with Won-Tae in prison and Bo-Ra suddenly accepting him as her dad, his wife probably forgiving him and staying together.

Angie Feb 19 2021 6:26 am I'm afraid Ari will have miscarriage because of her mother-in-law and she and Junsu will get divorced. The parents-in-law will now then be happy because they were able to separate Ari and Junsu...this is just a thought....but it can happen in the story....can I be a good writer?

Joey Feb 18 2021 6:04 pm So, how is the character of Joong-Han received in Korea? For my sisters and myself, Americans, we think this guy is absolutely insane. His angry reactions are extreme and disturbing. From the flashback where he shouts at his ex-wife and Jae-Soo, accuses her of cheating (which is pretty clear to the viewer by now wasn't even true), slapped his daughter for bringing an orphaned child home, treated everyone including that child like garbage once he found out her origin, treats Dae-Ro like trash now that he knows who his step-father is, etc.

If he was just angry his ex-wife lost their home by offering it as collateral for Jae-Soo's debt, that'd be one thing, but he still acts like her betrayal was recent and worse than it was. To a western viewer he is clearly seen as someone with serious anger issues and mental illness. Even if his wife did cheat, it's clearly been nearly 20 years since that happened, and he's been remarried for probably nearly as long. To be that upset still is just weird.

So how is he received in Korea? Do they consider him the hero in the Joong-Han/Jae-Soo story? Do they view him as just as insane as us western viewers? To us he comes off as an angry, alcoholic, abusive husband. His family is clearly afraid of him when he has his outbursts, they go out of their way to lie just so he doesn't snap. So I'm really curious if he's received in a positive or negative reception of his character in Korea.

Kris Feb 17 2021 7:29 am Families marry in Korea. Not people. The bride leaves the family and joins the husbands family. It’s slowly changing. Both sets of parents feel they are family to each other. It is not just the SIL that feels his family is MIL and FIL. The ILs feel a connection. Also finances are multigenerational. People make 20-50K but housing in Seoul is about 700K. Don’t forget between college and military service work doesn’t begin until age 24-26 if you finish in time and don’t do extra study abroad and your military service is placed at a good time not to mess up a semester. You can’t really get married without living with the IL or having your parents and the IL help you get an apartment. Most people want to please their parents around the world. There is a “duty” to parents so it’s beyond that. Some parents are concerned with connections. I read that 70% would not get married if their parents didn’t approve.

Sisa Feb 17 2021 4:25 am One thing I noticed in most korean dramas is that children regardless of age are not given the right to decide for themselves. Jiran is a middle-aged woman but her mother decides on how her life should be. The same with Junsoo. Why do parents decide on who their children have to marry? This idea just pisses me.

Annoyed Feb 10 2021 7:12 pm I really get annoyed with Han Ok Shim drama. He is causing a lot of problem. All the trouble in this drama was caused by him...

celinacaprice Feb 07 2021 7:43 am Love this series.? But im unloving the toxic people around Joon-Soo and A-Ri.?

Kris Feb 05 2021 7:39 am A forced contract just isn’t enforceable in the US. Interesting how a secret recording isn’t legal but forced print is?

Are they just going to take the baby?

Hasna Feb 03 2021 6:52 pm The show is looking good. I like how Daero is so kind but not a pushover. He is smart enough not to fall for a franchise scam, and does not easily give in to threats and blackmail. Smart enough to keep an original copy of the will and not tell Wontae or his thugs about it. I like how Junsu cares about Ari and her sister. I like how Ari is very firm and adamant about her decision but understand how she would relent and consider Junsu's feelings. I didn't like how selfish Bora was but do like how she is starting to come around. I like how she was smart enough to take a recording of the event but not tell her evil birth father that she has it. The characters in Man in a Veil should learn from them.

Kris Feb 01 2021 11:28 pm Smokey, Korea is decades behind the US when it comes to these social issues. I don’t think he is mentally ill. Up until a few years ago it was legal for a potential employer to require a photo and information on your parents names, ages, jobs, etc... The reason there are lots of kids in Korean orphanages now. Korean’s if they do adopt adopt girls. The boys are the ones ending up overseas in larger numbers than girl babies. Line is through the male children. There are obstacles to parenting. It would solve the birth rate problem to just be nice in these situations. In divorce one parents basically takes the child like you saw with her not seeing her little sister all those years. She was kept from mom. In Korea you are judged and punished socially for what other relatives do. Hard to get a job if sister is a single mom. Pregnant and single mom’s jobs aren’t protected. Divorce is kept secret at work and school. He doesn’t want daughter and grandchild treated badly so is being horrible to her.

Amy Feb 01 2021 7:33 am Borah the self centered b*tch is so annoying, my heart breaks for Ari and all that she she's enduring, too bad none looked out for her till Junsu came along, I really hope She finds real happiness soon, Enough of Han jaesu and his boring storyline, Aris dad has serious anger issues but again he's so cute. Junsus parents are deplorable, how can they be so self centered.

Smokey Jan 28 2021 5:24 pm THis show is full of people that suffer from mental illness (Junsoo, his mom, among others), and KBS' weekend show Homemade Love Story also has characters with mental illness. So I really hope we start to see these illnesses addressed more going forward. I really hope this show addresses Ah Ri's dad's problems, mostly. That dude is mentally unstable. I get that there are cultural differences between Korean and American people, but the way he treated his ex-wife, the way he treated his daughter, her half-sister, these aren't normal. He's got severe anger issues, and I hope eventually someone calls him out on it. He treats poor Beyo-Ri like a stray cat that was brought home, and it's honestly disgusting. I hate that we're probably going to have to root for him in a fight between himself and Bo-Ra's birth father, but man they are both awful.

Jumanji Jan 28 2021 7:06 am I really hate the move of No Geum Sook, it really show how they planned to ruin the relationship of JunSuh and Ahri. My heart is boiling of anger for the parents. They never respect the decision of their children. How the couple will learned on their own of the parents will interfere all the time. How I wish Junsuh will find out the real reason why they want Ahri to move on their house.

RAZ Jan 23 2021 12:55 am For years I have been waiting for Choi Woong to have a leading role. Every since I first saw him in Bridal Mask I have loved him, even when he plays the bad guy.

Ms. Jhingkay Jan 21 2021 5:42 am Oh ilove the episode when Juh suh read a message for Ahri. Hope they will realize soon that they have feelings with each other. They will show to the people around them that they are meant with each other. They are an example of destiny and love conquers all. I like when Juh suh show how she cares Ahri and the baby. Scriptwriter, Let Boh rRah and the parents of Juhn Suh that Ahri is really meant for each other. Let the story more exciting and love to watch..thanks..Ajah for No Matter Series..I love it since Ep.1 up to now....

JDub Jan 19 2021 11:39 pm Does anyone know if it was Eunji singing the song when Bo-Ra had her ocean scene? Beautiful song!

Ms Eve Jan 19 2021 4:34 pm Hey writers: perfect song for this drama, check out No Matter What by Boyzone! And hope Joon-Soo will protect A-Ri to the end. Love Joon-Soo’s character for standing up to his annoying parents who only thinks about themselves! A-Ri’s parents are not too far from them either-the father saying she’s not his daughter anymore! The stepmom maybe nice but also wanted her to get an abortion! That decision should be between the child’s parents! They are not children anymore! They’re adults for heaven’s sake! And that self-centred stepsister is so annoying! She doesn’t deserve a nice guy like Dae-Ro!

Ms Jhingkay Jan 18 2021 8:24 pm Yayy. Soo happy for Ahri and Juhn Suh. Hoping they will show to the world how great love is. Despite the struggles, love will conquers all

AJ Jan 17 2021 8:43 pm Whoa, Jun-Su and A-Ri are truly up against the world!

Meichi Jan 16 2021 9:20 am Junsu and Ahri,

Be strong and persistent! Sister Bora is sure spoiled'. A 'Princess' and selfish, self centered nut. Parents are hopeless to force abortion.

Meichi Jan 16 2021 9:12 am Junsu and Ahri,

Be strong and persistent!

Kris Jan 16 2021 8:59 am People are not owned by another. How is it a betrayal? Obviously the guy doesn’t like her. No one is married.

Jo Jan 14 2021 4:00 pm Am I the only to feel that Bora’s reaction is just normal? Of course we admire Ahri for the sens of responsibility she have. Actually everyone’s reaction is normal in the sens that at first it’s the shock. But still after some time the parents calm down and agreed for the marriage etc. It’s also normal that Ahri wants to fight for her baby. But isn’t also normal that Bora is heartbroken ? How would we react if our sister slept we the one for who we have feelings? Isn’t it a double betrayal? Even though it was a « mistake ».

I think that everyone reaction is normal. And No one at first understood Bora ´si feelings. So I am happy that the fact she disappear helped her family to also think of her a little.

Jamse Jan 11 2021 4:15 pm Moon Hee-Kyung playing still another character where she can't stand the girl her "precious son" is going to eventually marry. Her sing song voice drives me nuts. "Nananana NEE? Nananana NEE?"

Malini Jan 11 2021 4:07 pm I really hate the bora character so much

Kris Jan 01 2021 8:18 pm A few characters are interesting to watch. Most evil sadistic beyond belief much like beautiful love wonder life worst title ever... First she is forced to raise her sister. Then can’t manage a baby? Seriously? All the pressure to abort I wish it were illegal and she could get police help to get these people off her back. She is slapped at work and fights back. I think this is where the culture differences make it hard to watch. I was hoping it would get better. So even a single mom who married a single dad are making her abort? What would her sister think that the baby is off dead than not have married parents? Why can’t she raise the baby and the baby spend some time with dad? Five Children I miss so much. Even I Love You 2007? was light years ahead of this series. Ironic as one of my favorite actresses from that series is a horrible person in this drama. Only ones worth watching are the dad/aunt, little sister and Dae Roo? I just can’t.

Meichi Dec 30 2020 10:52 am I echo with Noni totally, getting to like this drama.

Noni Dec 28 2020 4:50 pm I love this drama. I like Ah Ri and hope she will end up with Jun Soo later without so much hurdle. I agree with comment from "q" that Ari deserves better! As of episode 56, i can see that many against Ah Ri attention to raise the baby and encourage for abortion which i think abortion itself is bad! Whatever it is, her character is more outstanding than the other female lead, Bo Ra. And Bo Ra looks a bit selfish in episode 56. There will be more episodes to watch and surely will follow the drama till end.

Happy New Year!

treannah Dec 25 2020 3:24 pm I absolutely love this drama...why? cause theres no ML or FL!!! and every episode leaves you wanting more and cliff hangers you sooooo bad!!!...lol. This is what a "gem in the rough" drama is like....low budget, alot of unknown actors/tresses, script can be corny, acting is alright...but the story line progression is so adictive to the point you forget about the negative aspect of the production. I can only say that (hopefully) some where down the line this drama will not lose its tenacity with viewers, as it looks like all the stories are coming to its peak (up to episode 55) and its down hill redemption and reconciliation. (thats my take so far)...but other than that i will trudge along till the end...and give it a 7.5/10 so far! :) merry xmas all :)

progress Dec 14 2020 5:25 pm I am rooting for Ari I just love everything about her lol the latest episode she is pregnant Jun soo's mum is not going to like this. the drama is giving us hot now. this drama and man in veil is so good.

saranghae Dec 07 2020 12:12 pm epi 26 this drama is getting better and better at first i liked bora much better than ari cz she is so beautiful but now i like ari much much better cz she didnt send byeori to the orphanage and instead she embraced her and is taking responsability as the elder sister something like a mom to her ok i really hate that transvestite he is getting into my nerves i just skip all his appearances but the problem is that he is holding all the mysteries of this drama and one of them is i think he is byeoris dad and i cant wait when boras stepdad learns that his boss is actually boras bio dad omg omg i want to see that i think hell will brake loose when that happens cz boras stepdad i think is a little too violent and lastly am enjoying a lot the love and hate relationship of bora and ari they really look like real sisters

Delor Dec 06 2020 4:11 pm I like this show but starting to get annoyed by the younger female roles. It seems like lying is second nature, can they ever just be honest?

q Dec 06 2020 2:51 pm Am I the only one who thinks Shin Ari deserves better? I have watched up to the 40th episode and dang, idk I guess I just have a soft spot for her and Jun Soo. I would much rather Shin Ari end up with Jun Soo, I personally like their chemistry more. ALSO Dae Ro deserves SO MUCH better and that little girl is really good at acting she really had me crying in the first few episodes.

Pgirl13 Dec 06 2020 11:11 am Just like to send a shout out to those that brought out the attention of male playing grandma role - this nothing new for male actors to take this type of character role as a female - look into history of stage play & films making, plus stand-up comedy many males have played female characters - some are so good not able to tell the difference -happy watching ☺☺☺?

Pgirl13 Dec 06 2020 10:58 am Hello & welcome to a great casting members drama - first two eps got my attention to continue watching (I had promised not watch drama over 20eps) , let's see how this household hold-up especially with A-Ri & Bo Ra's family - love their mom & dad, wishing all drama watchers happy watching till the ending ☺☺☺?

mj Nov 17 2020 5:27 pm @S, I said the same thing w/o seeing the first few episodes. Have to watch from the beginning and you'll see why. A very lighthearted nice kdrama.

T Nov 17 2020 3:57 pm S, if you'd take 20 minutes to watch the first episode you'd understand the situation. They aren't trying to fool anyone with this. It's lighthearted, predictable (for the audience) drama with all of the female leads doing wonderfully as well as Kim Yu-Seok.

s Nov 17 2020 3:25 am are you kidding me....a man playing as grandma in this drama? have korean less old lady actress to play as grandma??

m Nov 13 2020 8:36 pm Kim Ha-Yeon/Jung Byeo-Ri this girl can realyy act!!! Love this very nice light hearted storyline and blended family drama. Not too over the top conniving super rich story. About everyday people.

Shakira Nov 11 2020 10:35 pm This show has a charm about it..I love it!!

Yup Nov 05 2020 11:44 pm Byeo-Ri (Kim Ha-Yeon) is the star of this drama to me. A lesser actress would not make this character work. I also like Na Hye-Mi and Do Ji-Won who are both beautiful women.

saranghae Oct 30 2020 9:56 am epi 4 sesange sesange omg omg this epi was so sad so early but that lady already died leaving 2 siblings all alone and the elder sister doesnt want to take care of the lil sister this was so cruel no matter how much she pleaded and cry she was gonna send her to an orphanage come on nobody wants to live in an orphanage thats the worst that can happen to anybody ok i just became a fan of the lil girl byeori great dramatic acting i think im getting hooked with this drama

Dramafan Oct 30 2020 4:04 am I like Kim Bo-Ra but find Shin A-Ri irritating, especially the way she treats her sister Bo-Ra. Good drama overall.

Superstar Oct 30 2020 4:01 am I like Kim Bo-Ra but find Shin A-Ri irritating. Overall, good drama so far.

saranghae Oct 28 2020 11:12 pm epi 2 just started after the previous brilliant heritage which started really good but faded throughout and this is going in the same direction but hope will not fade and disappoint me again ok i like bora she is very pretty and i like her whole family especially dojiwon that havent seen her for a long time i think she got a bit old but thats ok she is still pretty and beautiful i also like ari and father there was other lady that looked so familiar but couldnt remember then checking on her profile found out that she was in want a taste? but doing a very very bad and crazy role thats why i couldnt recognize her cz here she is doing a more comedian role i guess her name lee seula i like her acting very much i got the feeling this will be a good drama

malini Oct 27 2020 12:09 pm I love shin A-ri character more than bora

Jwo Oct 26 2020 8:22 pm Starts off really good, a little weird at times but still good. I hope it doesn’t take a turn for the worse in terms of quality like some of these long dramas do.

Rita Reyes Oct 26 2020 11:14 am I love Korean dramas!

Jdub Oct 24 2020 3:46 am Wow! Episode 4 was such a tear jerker. Strong performance by the young actress. Let's hope her older sister does the right thing.

IDGI Oct 23 2020 11:22 am OK who is the man dressed as a Woman?

m Oct 21 2020 8:42 pm So many really good actors in this kdrama! I have high hopes for this one.

Roger Oct 16 2020 10:50 am I have to say after unsuccessfully trying to watch My Wonderful Life(very bad!), there are actually some long running Korean series that isn't too bad.

CKW Oct 15 2020 2:46 am Seeing Choi Woong as a lead makes me SO happy. He deserves everything!

Mija Oct 13 2020 6:38 pm Same song as wang family ?

Mohd ammar Sep 18 2020 2:17 am Great i hope this drama will get a better storyline after Brilliant Heritage

Ryan Kevin V. Sep 16 2020 2:14 am It's so surprising to know that Kil Yong-woo and Kim Na-woon will again be playing together, after the not-so-long ago series "Fatal Promise"

Will they eventually be playing husband-and-wife roles again?
