Taiwan finally gets some ‘Dignity’

Kim Ha-neul from this year’s hit SBS drama “A Gentleman’s Dignity” will visit Taiwan today to promote her work.

According to SM C&C, Kim will stay in Taiwan three days to promote the show there starting Thursday.

It is Kim’s second trip to Taiwan; her first visit was in 2008 for the drama “On-Air.”

Since the airing of the romance-comedy drama with a viewers’ rating of 20 percent, Kim and her co-stars Jang Dong-gun and Kim Su-ro have been in the spotlight.

The show began airing last month in Japan via satellite channel Mnet.

“A Gentleman’s Dignity” has been called a 40-year-old male version of the U.S. hit “Sex and the City.”

As well as portraying the humorous love lives of a group of close-knit male friends, the drama also features idol group member Lee Jong-hyun from CN Blue.

By casting Jang and Lee, the show attracts viewers from a variety of age brackets, and songs from the show were high-performers on music charts.
