(Warning: Give this entry a miss if you (1) don’t like Korean Dramas (2) don’t know Jang Dong Gun and (3) don’t wanna hear me gushing like a 13 year old)
12 years ago..he stole my heart and unleash the K-drama addict in me. Bestie and I were insanely crazy with his role in All About Eve – well, basically we were crazy of the whole serial and cast. I can pretty much say no K-drama has come close to winning my heart (and soul) away ….

UNTIL this… A Gentleman’s Dignity
Which also mark Jang’s return to television after 12 years (yes, since All About Eve)

The serial revolves around 4 good friends in their 40s and the trials and tribulations of life, they encounter and experience together. Intense portrayal of friendship, I must say the strong notion of friendship and the bond shared amongst the 4 friends had me in tears few times during the recent episodes. And like almost all K-Dramas, you can’t do without the romance – this serial depicts the varying degree of love and commitment but from ..what else? A gentleman’s dignity perspective.
I love the pairing and chemistry of Jang and Kim Ha Neul in the serial; and think she’s absolutely gorgeous with an au natural elegance that brings out the role of Yi Soo perfectly.
