Ironically, this is one drama which was out of my must-watch radar. I earnestly followed Big, I do I do, and Bridal Mask (ongoing) while I left A Gentleman's Dignity on my bookmark list for a while. It's probably because I had no expectations from the drama that I was so floored at how amazing it turned out to be.
There are some absolutely perfect elements which got this drama into my MUST-RE-WATCH set!
★ The Formidable yet (oftentimes) Ridiculous Friendship of the 4 Gentlemen ★
The flashbacks at the start of each episode top my list of favorite things about this drama ㅋㅋㅋ! The loyalty and love these four friends have for each other are just astounding. Even though this must be very normal in Korea, I still find it amazing beyond words. I think this 애정 concept is one of the most charming and genuine element of Korean culture and seeing this deep friendship amongst men is just simply beautiful.
Perhaps it is because of their insanely amazing friendship that I adore them all equally and cannot pick biases! I thought everyone had fascinating qualities … But I think Lee Jongrok is the funniest hehehe~
★ Stubbornly CRAZY Women ㅋㅋㅋ★
Among the 4 ladies, I think my favorite is Im Meahri!!! Her pure determination was as impressive as it was outrageous hahaha~ but of course it all worked out well in the end. One of my favorite scenes was when Meahri pretends to be asleep in the car expecting some action from her Choi Yoon oppa. And then she abruptly wakes up and asks to be taken home since she wanted to go use the toilet ㅋㅋㅋ!!!
She cries like a spoiled brat and she mischievously does whatever she wants … And yet I still favored her because she lives her life without regrets. Because of characters like Meahri, I am (mis)led to believe that the world favors those who are fiercely decided to follow their hearts regardless of consequences *sigh*.
I also love Park Minsook, Lee Jongrok's wife! The scenes where his husband's friends would do everything to appease her wrath were totally hilarious! I thought she had it all together since she didn't make silly, embarrassing and irreparable mistakes like the other 3 ladies. But then her weakness was revealed in the end and her tears were just immensely sad ㅠㅠ.
I salute Hong Sera's snobbish character because she is unpretentious to herself which is really cool! And of course, I adore Seo Yisoo because she is just plain absurd.
★ Colin is ❤❤❤ ★
I spazzed a LOT about Colin here. I thought his mysterious character was endearing ㅋㅋㅋ. I loved the part where he chose highschool friends who had a legal issue with his dad earlier in the story … and that his dad had to rescue them from the police station. He might have just showed 2 expressions though: an incredulous face and an angry one hahahah.
★ Brilliant OST ★
What is perfect scoring!?!?! All the songs feels so right … that my heart was already crooning to unknown lyrics while watching the show! There is no other way to describe it. Just listen.
Ahhhh, too bad the drama is over... Any chance it could get a sequel? ㅋㅋ
