A Gentleman's dignity...I still must laugh when I read this title because those 4 Gentlemen defined the term "dignity" in an unique and new way. After reading the synopsis I expected a lame drama but...wow... After this drama I learned my lesson: Never trust the synopsis. You might miss a great drama! This drama showed the greatest "bro"mance, romance and comedy. And this all in one drama! 4 middle-aged men with 4 different stories and issues. And I still can't decide which one I liked the best as each of them were interesting, kind of new and moving. This drama is another new and modern Korean dramas that are produced now. ( Thank God! We need new plots that deal with nowadays issues). I guess, there are still fans debating about the topic "young woman and older man". But hey, no matter what you think of it, it doesn't change the fact that this drama is one the most outstanding dramas that I've ever seen. Apart from the great male leads, the female actors did a great job as well. Everybody called them supportive actors. But for me, they are the female leads who did an outstanding job. Especially, Kim Ha Neul was great. She did all the stuff like acting like a lunatic or being the typical clumsy female lead who seems to have the talent to make a fool of herself in a cute way. Besides that, the chemistry between the couples and friends was so amazing. Especially the bromace: I have never seen such a funny and cute bromance. I could watch the openings of every ep again and again. Ok, I have to admit that it was a bit awkward to see those grown ups dressed like students. And the heavy make-up didn't help that much. But who cares, the scenes were still so funny. Just the thought of it makes me laugh now. The openings reminded me of History of a Salary Man. And it is also impressive that all the characters aren't shown in a superficial way. At first, I thought: How boring, I will see the typical Korean characters like the "Clumsy woman", "The Womanizer", "The Macho" and so on. But after watching some eps, I realized that every character had some "emotional issues". So 100 points for the amazing writers who accommodated a number of things. It was never boring, predictable or lame. I just can repeat: Wow! To put it in a nutshell: It is your fault if you miss this drama! The fact that I wrote such a long review ( with full of praise and repeated terms like "outstanding") should prove that there is something great about this drama...^^
