No Matter What (No Matter What They Say / Nuga Mwolaedo / 누가 뭐래도)

Dae Ro.

Chan Sung.

I'm sorry.

What are you sorry about?

Actually,

my liver cancer came back.

Are you sure?

Did you get it checked?

I don't believe it. Let's go to the hospital together.

There's no need.

I went to two different hospitals and got diagnosed.

They can't do anything about it as it's in the terminal stages.

Since you've mentioned it,

I think I should go back to the mountains.

What?

You're going back to the mountains in your condition?

You can't, Dad.

I can't let you leave by yourself.

Soon, I won't be able to move nor conscious.

I don't want to let you see me in that state.

Especially to Byeo Ri. How could let her see that?

That child...

would be so shocked.

You can't.

I can't let you go by yourself.

It hasn't been that long since we've all lived together.

Dad.

Dae Ro.

Dad.

My gosh, why are you crying?

Goodness me.

Are you sad that she's leaving?

I told you not to go. Why won't you listen to me?

Goodness, people would think this is a funeral.

Stop crying.

I'll be all right back in my hometown.

I hope you are well too.

Also, old man.

You should stay in your right mind...

and live well and healthy.

So you can see your granddaughter get married.

Why would you say it as if we'll never see each other?

- Are you not going to come back? - No.

I won't ever come back.

You're so harsh.

Are you trying to turn me off?

Yes, I'm doing to turn you off.

So don't ever look for me anymore.

Farewell.

Hey, wait.

Don't be like that. Come and see us again.

Stop it now.

Geez, you're so clingy.

You need to never turn back when saying goodbye.

Bye.

- Wait. - Let go of me!

I said, goodbye!

It's been a while since I haven't seen my mom.

I don't think I deserve to take her ashes.

It was her last wish...

to see her son even at death.

She lived longing to see you all her life.

So that's why I brought her here.

Your mom's life has been tough.

There's a letter she left for you.

How you feel...

about your mother is none of my business,

but she's still your mother who gave birth to you.

Take good care of her.

All right.

You're here. Did you pass on the ashes to Director Shin?

I did.

That's that. Ji Ran.

I was too embarrassed to mention this at the airport.

Have you been going back and forth from Jae Soo's house?

Mom.

I filed for divorce with Won Tae.

Are you insisting you'll go to Jae Soo...

after getting divorced from Won Tae?

Yes.

What have you been doing until things became this bad?

I told you to make sure Ji Ran doesn't bring up divorce, didn't I?

Mother, you don't need to worry.

Didn't you hear what she said?

How can I be calm?

Jae Soo doesn't have much time left to live anyway.

What?

What in the world are you saying? He's perfectly fine.

Who told you he's fine?

I heard he has terminal liver cancer.

Don't be ridiculous!

Now you're making up stories to badmouth him.

What do you think you're doing?

Are you sure about that?

Yes.

I met Jae Soo not long ago.

I was teaching him a lesson, so he'd make Ji Ran cancel the divorce.

Bo Ra stopped me and told me when we went somewhere else.

She must be mistaken.

Or she could've lied as you made things hard for Jae Soo.

Why would Bo Ra lie about such a thing?

I know you don't want to believe that.

Jae Soo won't die.

Ji Ran! Where are you going?

Dad.

Why don't we see another doctor with me?

I got checked out by the best specialist of liver cancer.

But he said there's no hope.

- I can't give up like this. - Dae Ro.

I have no time to waste.

I have to go to the theme park with Byeo Ri tomorrow,

and I want to make good memories with you guys.

If you insist on leaving,

let me go with you.

What are you going to do by yourself in the woods when you're sick?

Don't say that.

You're busy with the franchise business in the US.

How could you be absent from work at a time like this?

- That's not important right now! - After I leave,

Byeo Ri would be so sad by herself.

You need to stay by her side and look after her.

Dad.

Still...

Jae Soo.

Ji Ran, what brings you here out of the blue?

Won Tae said something weird, so I came.

Your liver cancer didn't recur, right?

Dae Ro, please give us some space.

I'd like to talk to her.

Okay.

Tell me it's wrong.

You're fine, right?

Ji Ran.

My illness came back.

How could this happen?

You've just recovered your identity and started living as Han Jae Soo.

Why would such a terrible disease come back?

I wish this everything is a lie too.

I thought I could finally be a dad to Byeo Ri and Dae Ro.

I wanted to live happily like other families.

Ji Ran.

I think I'd have to leave soon.

What do you mean?

Where are you going without me?

Dear Ji Ran.

Don't cry.

Is this why you refused me...

when I said I want to raise Byeo Ri while living with you?

The stomachache you had was because you were ill?

Ji Ran.

I'm really sorry.

Don't be.

There is a miracle in this world.

Jae Soo.

You survived after getting diagnosed with liver cancer in the past.

We might see a miracle once again.

So, Jae Soo,

stay strong.

I hope so too, Ji Ran.

You poor thing.

What are we going to do?

My sweet Ji Ran.

Jae Soo...

Jae Soo.

Yes, Bo Ra.

Byeo Ri and Mr. Han are going to a theme park tomorrow.

Why don't we go there with them?

Sure. Let's go with them.

But what's wrong with your voice?

Are you crying?

Bo Ra.

My dad's...

liver cancer recurred.

So you found out.

Actually, I found out not long ago.

You must be heartbroken.

Dad...

is going to get things organized and go to the mountains.

I can't let him go like this, Bo Ra.

Where are you? I'll go over.

What are all these?

Can't you see?

I packed some lunch for you.

It's a spring picnic set that our company launched.

Why don't you give me feedback after trying them?

How could the CEO have so much free time?

You came in the morning and lunch.

What are you talking about? I'm working.

I need you to try and review it. Customer feedback is very important.

Ma'am, please try it and tell me what you think.

I'll eat it as I'm hungry,

but don't come here whenever you please.

Did you forget that we promised to date for a week?

We can see each other once a day.

What do you mean once when ten times isn't enough?

Then I'll give in.

Three times?

Geez.

Why won't you eat it? I thought you're hungry.

Don't you feel like eating?
