In search of “what to see,” many prefer not to take risks and pay attention either to rating films or ask questions in groups. Very often, the series “Dignity of a gentleman” (Russian dubbing or subtitles to choose from) appears in the top of the proposed and compulsory viewing of “any self-respecting playwright”. And to the timid: "Is he interesting?" not only the “slippers to the head” of the one who has not yet watched fly (“You watched so many things, did you bypass this masterpiece ?! What kind of Korean dramas do you have after that ?!”), but also a million enthusiastic “yes”. As a rule, top-end series are a high-quality product, so to speak about films, with a good cast and interesting plot. Of course, there are exceptions when the actors categorically do not like or the drama does not fit the mood. Well, obviously strange series, released exclusively for fans of certain groups: this is exclusively for watching, admiring, without any semantic load.
The plot of the series "Dignity of a gentleman"
The drama is designed for a specific audience, you need to know this before watching. If you prefer school-tear-sweet romantic stories in the spirit of “she was sweet and beautiful, modest, quiet and unpopular, and the first guy of all Seoul took and fell in love with her,” you can skip this series and look for something else. The drama tells about adults and adult relationships. Not about teenagers, not about students, but about uncles and aunts aged 30+. And in the film “The Dignity of a Gentleman”, the actors playing the main roles are not young cute stars, but they are also very attractive.
Often the series is compared with the famous "Sex and the City." Well, this is close to the truth, but with a number of reservations: the case is happening in Korea, so there will be nothing "like this", and the story is shown from an unusual angle.
The plot focuses on four men who have been friends for a long time. Some sort of mature "flower boys", led by handsome Kim Do Jin, played by Chan Don Gong. They passed not only fire, water and copper pipes, but also the test of time and managed to maintain their friendship. They are still interested in it together, and they still manage to get stuck in different stories, despite the "advanced" age. Home, career, love - the drama shows not just a beautiful picture, but real life with all its pros and cons. Cheating, illegitimate children, doubts and throwing, stupid acts - all this is inherent in the heroes, it is all this that makes the series vital and interesting.
Characters
In the drama "The Dignity of a Gentleman," the actors are perfectly matched and laid out at 100%. Each character has its own storyline, no one is deprived of attention.
Kim Do Jin
Jang Dong Gong is insanely good at Kim Do Jin. His hero is a cold and self-confident handsome man, accustomed to the fact that women themselves fall at their feet, except that they do not fit into stacks. Kim Do Jin is a self-sufficient, charismatic and successful architect. By the age of 40, he could not forget his first love. The one that was one for four. But only unlike his friends, he could not move on and never once had a serious relationship. For the first time, he really became interested only in So Yi Su and began to conquer the girl, using all his honed techniques. However, each time they invariably did not give the desired result, which only spurred interest. However, in relations, Do Jin acted more like a push-and-pull principle: when the situation became more or less clear, and the characters sorted out their feelings, Do Jin gave a "full back".
And if everything is not going smoothly with personal life, then there are no problems with friendship and career. Kim Do Jin is always ready to help her friends get out of unpleasant stories: to calm an angry wife who suspects her faithful of treason, to keep company at a party, and simply help with advice or listen.

Lee John Rock
The most problematic character in the company of friends. Lee John Rock got married early and favorably and feels somewhat flawed in comparison with friends. Therefore, trying not to miss a single skirt. Jealous wife, actively monitoring Casanova, is not a hindrance.

Im Ma A Ri
