Comments

Esther Nov 14 2023 9:12 pm I am really disappointed with this show. I decided to watch it because I saw a lot of people talking about it online, also when I googled best kdrama it was listed as one of them and I saw it has good ratings. I realized a lot of people watch this show and give it a good rating because a boy band member is on it (Kim Tae-Hyung), I don't listen to kpop yet so I don't know him but he's definitely carrying the show even though his character isn't one of the main ones. Don't get me wrong the bromance is Amazing, the men have more chemistry between themselves than the main female lead and male lead. I found the brother-to-lover storyline really gross, the fact that she started having feelings for him when she still thought he was her brother was weird and uncomfortable. I really wanted Go Ara with Park Hyung-Sik, they had better chemistry and he really tried to be there for her but she never even gave him a chance. I am on episode 9 and I want to stop watching the show, I skipped to episode 20 and I see PHS got the throne and PSJ got the girl, I'm still not satisfied. They could have put PSJ with the princess and let the king have go ara. i see people complaining about go ara acting, this is my first time watching her so I can't say shes a bad actress but she definitely had really bad facial expressions in this show and they made her character annoying, the obsession with her brother was unnecessary, especially when she still saw him as her brother. I have 2 brothers and I have never been obsessed with them, they are grown men, they can take care of themselves. In conclusion I had second lead syndrome so bad in this show and watching PHS constantly be rejected by go ara hurt me for him. i would rate this show a 6/10 and I'm only giving it a 6 because of the bromance, the only romance I liked was Ban Ryu and soo-yeon.

cheeselover Jun 20 2023 8:02 pm I fell in love with ji dwi..

kingqueendrama Jun 19 2023 11:41 pm I enjoyed the drama but I'll just point out some of the scenes that can be great with the story (it might consist some spoilers so please don't read)

A perfect story for hwarang and king but most of the scenes are a bit rushed. I prefer ban ryu and soo yeon love story than the FL and ML (but they just put it like they just loved each other without any explanations). Su ho and the princess could've be perfect match but no, they just cut off those two in the end.

Mozzatella Jun 19 2023 11:33 pm (there are some spoilers so don't read)

I've just finished this k drama and this is the first time that I wished the 2nd lead should be the ML. It will be a good story because I feel like everything was so rushed in the story of FL and ML (side characters too).

The love story of ban ryu is one of my favorite and they should have more scenes not just they were just madly in love each other without any explanation why?

Su hoo and princess can be a perfect couple but they just disappear in the end.

Love the story between hwarangs but the love stories especially the FL and ML no love, just crying and always need help.

Princy May 20 2023 5:43 am I only watched it for kim taehyung, his acting is super .after watching this I love all characters ❤

Kim May 02 2023 11:41 am I only watch because of park seo joon... There's no chemistry between FL and ML. I love chemistry between soo yeon and ban ryu.

Ayomiposi Feb 07 2023 2:39 pm O really like the movie hwarang But it saddened me as there was no season 2 og the movie

Mercy Jan 19 2023 1:50 am I've watched only small episodes before and I was determined that I'll download all watched the drama is never disappointing! First time I'll see Psj in a movie and I love him 4 his brave action psh too I love l the first 6 hwarang! Seeing Kim taehyung And loving him in d movie made me an army! Sun woo made a right decision in d end I'm happy there's no more blood shedding because of him! What a great drama wish there'll be season 2 of how sillia is being controlled, psj marrying Ah to and so much more! Go ara really tried in d movie too I really love her

Carolynne Jan 11 2023 7:33 am I'm an older Korean and Chinese drama watcher. Really liked Hwarang, actors were good and scenery. I looked up Korean history to find some of it was true. Also two of the actors sang songs for it, sorry Minho didn't sing as he has a great voice. I have become a fan of Park seo jung and Minho. The main actress wasn't pretty but she was loveable. I'm glad they got together in the end.

AB Nov 27 2022 6:24 am Good story and plot, love the male lead actors. But... Am I the only one who is bothered by the articulation disorder of the actress who plays the queen? I don't now if her pronunciation of the 's' is considered an articulation disorder in South-Korea, but where I am from, it is. It saddens me a bit, because the actress does a good job portraying the queen...

Rclbrkr Nov 14 2022 12:58 pm This Drama Is Superb. The casts, story, politics, wardrobe, jokes, romance, bromance are great. Moreover, it tells viewer that the young generation can be agent of change. Please bear in you mind, Ahro character wasn't made to be beautiful, it's about her kindness and good heart. Even king's swordman said Ahro not that beautiful and asked Jidwi to look for another girl (Go Ara is beautiful though). And Seonwu didn't have much experience dealing with woman since he was raised outside the capital. Ahro's smart and brave so she had more positive points rather than spoiled capital girls. The sword fight was on another level, they even used horsed, arrow and even football match were using fighting techniques. The director, writers and crews did excelent jobs in making this drama. The original soundtracks are also good, i still listen to them (some of the male lead also sung). Every scenes really convey emotions and ideas crystal clear. This is good, even after 5 years, i still comeback to watch this drama.

Joy Nov 14 2022 3:44 am Watched Hwarang, and discovered BTS. I was so intrigued by Kim Taehyung (V) who turned out to be a good actor. So I searched him on the internet and got acquainted with the Bangtan Boys. They’re now my daily YouTube fare. Not a day goes by without me watching YT content about them. Praying for them everyday.

Dollface Nov 01 2022 4:31 pm Hot damn I have never seen so many good looking men in one drama lol

bubble Aug 21 2022 3:34 am i watched the whole drama except for PSJ and go ara part.. hahahahhahahaha.. too annoying and not compatible. both unpleasant to see

Dianne holloway Aug 16 2022 9:26 pm It’s really good all characters are amazing, but I’m at episode 16 and now it’s getting confusing.??

HatakeYan Aug 10 2022 6:50 am I've been avoiding this show all this time, although Taehyung is in it, cause I heard the FL is annoying. I'm flabbergasted how it's even worse than I thought. The last time I was this annoyed of a FL was in 'Tempted'. I have to say Go Ara just topped Joy with this one. Lol. Seriously, what was casting director thinking? It's a waste of a good story. PHS carried his character perfectly btw.

Jooni5 Aug 09 2022 9:22 am Took me long enough to start watching this. Not really a fan of Go Ara's acting since like forever, and proved myself right once again. She doesn't seem to have chemistry with both PSJ and PSH. It's just terrible pairing. The plot was good though.

Dramawatcher Aug 08 2022 6:24 pm This is the drama that made me realise PSJ does not have his own acting style. Very disappointed.

Conor Jul 04 2022 1:16 am Entertaining, if a little slow at times.

Surely, they could have cast someone else in place of go Ara. Her acting is pathetic and her facial expressions were sooo wrong. Her crying scenes were just abysmal. Honestly, there are so many better actors out there. Why would anyone give her an acting job never mind a lead role.

Jennie May 11 2022 11:27 pm Watched because of PHS but dropped quickly after. It was ok, I especially loved the first 2 episodes with LKS. Heartbreaking....

Heldi (Talent Manager, Estonia) Mar 27 2022 11:32 am This is a great and unique TV series. The best TV series of my life I've ever seen. Masterful work of the director: excellence well-chosen actors, content is fantastically exciting and same time humorous. High class entertainment! Wow! I recommend it to anyone who is looking for solid humor and an excitingly entertainment. It's so engaging that you forget your everyday worries! Bets TV-serial ever! Thank you for everyone, who did it! I have watched all the episodes several times. Fantastic series! Thank you South Korea. Thanks to this series, I will be visiting South Korea soon. Thank You, fantastic team - who all contributed to the series!

loooove Mar 03 2022 4:45 am Despite the hate on this drama, i watched it because PSJ is an amazing actor in all his other dramas. This drama is kinda boring because of the production team and also Go Ara. I rather shipped the bromance of PSJ and PHS instead lol

AmyT Feb 08 2022 6:15 am Loved the drama, but the make and female lead had no chemistry whatsoever. I think I enjoyed how he related with Princess Soo Kyung even though, he didn't like her that way.

Marathon24 Jan 22 2022 7:27 pm The story line is interesting, and it is loaded with famous stars, but sorry to say...they chose the wrong actress for the female lead. Other actor/actresses are doing great, but Go Ara's acting was always a bit out of place and sometimes annoying, too much of folding her lips...or whatever you call it. Almost all the time that's her only expression. It would be a bit better if she doesn't do that and just act naturally without the folded lips thingy, so annoying. It would be better if the main actress were Lee Se Young, Han Hyo Joo, or Kim Yoo Jung.

Marathon24 Jan 20 2022 8:43 pm I keep avoiding this drama because the main female lead is Go Ara. I'm not a fan of her because her acting and expression are always too bland or flat. But once I lower my expectation of the female lead, I think this drama is fun to watch, especially because it is packed with handsome...or should I say pretty boys, hahaha. I'm on eps 8 now. Btw, Ban Ryu and Su Hoo's sister are cute together...

Steffanie Jan 19 2022 5:31 am I do not get the negativity towards PSJ and Go Ara. I know they do not have chemistry and their characters were better off ending up with a bro/sis/friendly relationship. It was the writer's fault for making their characters annoyingly that way..

Everyone did a superb job acting. Maybe there are just a lot of PHS super fans who are biased in the comment section.

aalandee shiwalkar Jan 16 2022 11:15 am we want season 2 of hwarang with v (bts)...and all actors ...

cookie Jan 15 2022 5:54 pm Watched only for PHS. I didn’t see a chemistry between psj and go ara. I should have stopped after the first kiss with park hyung sik. I think this is the more ennoying drama with psj as a lead actor.

J lee Dec 18 2021 8:16 am PHS carried the whole show. Esp bored with PSJ and go ara. They had zero chemistry. Stayed only because there is PHS. His acting was mind blowing superb - the vulnerability, gentleness and anguish of a young hidden king. The episode where he stood there trying to remain secret and fearful for his life and hurting for his people who are being killed in front of his eyes and yet wanting to step up to admit he is the king.

Shaneira Dec 01 2021 6:59 am came for PSJ, stayed for PHS. Sunwoo was such a boring, mediocre character, and by the end of the show he was just plain annoying, and i was hoping for someone to just kill him lol PHS was the saving grace of this show, i ended up rooting for Ji Dwi more than the ML hahaha A-Ro was fine as spunky girl in the beginning, but as always the girl gets to be mere plot device for the boys and becoming unnecessary as stand-alone character. the premise was good, the other Hwarangs had interesting stories to tell, the writer could've focused on their camaraderie and growth as elite warriors, discovering themselves and their true purpose in the midst of all that power struggle within their own families. so to sum it up, if you have nothing to do, give it a try. it was kinda fun, just don't expect too much.

Arrya Nov 30 2021 9:27 am I enjoyed the twists and turns in the kingdom but I think the lovestory behind is soso

Mi Ah Nov 21 2021 8:34 pm I really want to watch this for Park Hyung Sik but Go Ara was also there and her bad acting is so freaking annoying ?

Bryn Nov 17 2021 8:52 pm I never interested in a movie/drama that glorifying group of pretty guys (like boyband or this knights or that series with group of princes) because its usually cringey for me. Anyway, i only give it a try because of a web comic where hwarang knights appear, tho they dont seem that strong and only meh.. but i got curious why they become famous.

Shirley Oct 31 2021 9:03 am I didn't watch this show when it was released 5 yrs ago was because Go Ara's in it. But I finally watched it for V! Haha. He's so cute and he did a good job this being his first acting role! :)

The thing with Go Ara's dramas is that you need to prep yourself to expect bad acting. If you have seen her act before, well it will be the same for ALL her dramas ... her expressions. so if you lower your expectations before you start, it becomes OK. haha

Mae Sep 11 2021 1:03 pm I tried watching but stopped coz I hate the female leads bland acting so much and the plot is so interesting. I’m definitely not continuing

Janine Bartl_K-Drama_Queen Jul 25 2021 8:33 am I love the K-Drama Hwarang. It is the best! I love Park Hyung Sik as the King. ♡ Warm greetings from Germany :-)

Cinta Jul 24 2021 8:52 am Just watched Hwarang by First week of May 2021, because of Park Hyung Sik. End up become an ARMY. ?

Janine Bartl_K-Drama_Queen Jul 20 2021 12:27 pm ♡ i Love the K-Drama Hwarang the most! ♡

Nathalie Kyrah Mostiero Jul 18 2021 7:09 pm I watched Hwarang because of Kim Taehyung as he one of the BTS members I mostly admire, but I ended up loving the other casts as well.

Goodybag Jul 17 2021 1:53 pm I like this drama so much except for the female leads go ara youre so overreacting, i dont like you annoying

Tracey Keene Jun 02 2021 6:27 am I am half way through this series .... am thoroughly enjoying the Bromance part of it ... sadly I find the main actress "Go-Aro" frustrating ..... why cry ALL the time ... you cannot say that anyone really likes her as she is always balling her eyes out .... me ... I would not want to be around her ... she started off spunky as the narrator of kinky sexy stories to her peers but then it all fell flat for her. So far, I love the tension between the Men ;-) T

TAE May 09 2021 8:10 pm V is so cute to be honest hes so natural.. ilove him hehe.. And the part of his death is so sad.. im crying throughout the scene ??????

simba Apr 21 2021 7:27 am Loved it! But I didn't enjoy the scenes with the main couple to be honest, I must rather enjoyed the scenes with Ban Ryu & Soo Yeon and the bromance scenes. The main girl kept crying all the time and it was annoying. Apart from that the drama was fun to watch.

Ss Mar 27 2021 3:05 am Drama is good. But the main female lead is overacting and the love between the main characters is boring and forceful. Minho is over loaded with cutness and Do Jin Han is classically handsome. I was fallen love with those two.

1997 Feb 18 2021 1:07 pm This drama will be better if Seo Ye ji was the main lead. Go Ara is not fitted to be the main actress.

Marlene Funk Feb 17 2021 10:49 pm Amazing drama. 11/10. I'd reccomend to anyone, regardless of your taste or favorite genre. I don't even like historical dramas, but i fell in love with this 15 minutes into the first episode. The acting, directing, aesthetics, OST, lighting, and we'll.. the handsomeness are all perfect. Such a satisfying ending too! One of my top 5 favorite dramas of all time. Definately a must watch!

Nene Ishii Feb 11 2021 1:02 pm Best drama series to me. brilliant plot. colourful scenes filled with magic, joy, love and friendship. I highly recommend for those who would like to be entertained by these 6 beautiful and talented young artists. I fell in love with Park Hyungsik, Park Seo Joo, V and MinHo for the best portrayal of their specific roles. I also love A-Ro for her innocent and crying baby role. It is really worth watching. I just love playing Hwarang sound track songs now.

Judy Feb 11 2021 5:25 am This was the most enjoyable series I’ve watched on Netflix. The actors are brilliantly played and the Hwarang group came together as a group and as friends. I wish the series had continued as I fell in love with some of the characters in this show and will miss seeing them.

k-addict Feb 07 2021 5:24 pm I can recommend this drama! Binged it in one go xD. Although it is based on true events, the producers did not focus on giving a historically accurate portrayal. I was a bit confused at the beginning about (cringey) outstanding props or costumes etc. (money bag, shoes, hairdo, coffee shop, etc.). However, I assume it was actually a deliberate attempt to portray the historical era in a modern interpretation to attract younger viewers since the cast is partly made up of boy group idols. Hwarang was actually being compared to being the forerunners of today's idols at that time. If you're not looking for a historical lesson, it's an entertaining story with action scenes, bromance/camaraderie and a great cast. PSJ was a great ML and I was super happy to see him in another drama.

I seem to be in the minority, but I absolutely enjoyed (!) the "brother-sister" relationship (not off-putting to me, since they never really had one). The "it seems taboo, but it's actually ok" made me squeal a few times. It was such a spicy situation to see them affectionate while people on the outside actually thought they were siblings. And it was exciting to see AR deal with her feelings for SU even though she thought he was her brother because of it. A little bit of a "coffee prince situation".

The FL character was written a bit boring and weak, but there were a few traits I really liked about her. She was really trusting and confident of ML's feelings, which was a nice contrast to those annoying insecure FLs who doubt their relationship and are overly jealous. When a FL is that relaxed, it's actually a good sign of how healthy the relationship is, imo.

Swathy Jan 16 2021 3:07 am The epic play, it's perfect. The story context, acting, chemistry between the hwarangs, the development of their relationship.. I thought it would never end. 그것의 awsom

Mrs Lee Taeyong Jan 10 2021 10:13 pm Go ara is so annoying her character is completely useless Sunwoo and the king should’ve dated eachother

Ladyrora Dec 23 2020 4:49 am This story just leaves a huge mark in my heart. I wasn't so favourable of PSJ in Itaewon Class and WWWSK, but here I think he did very well. The storyline, the characters, the relationships, the emotions that come with it, all are well blended. The Hwarang characters (hard to name them all at once) and Go Ara were delightful in their own roles. And one thing I loved the most is that this story didn't change the facts of history. JiDwi being the king at the end, and not Sun Woo, reflects the course of monarchy of the Silla kingdom once upon a time.

Hope Nov 25 2020 1:30 pm Epic drama , everything is perfect .. the storyline , the acting , the chemistry between hwarangs , the development of their relationship.. I wished it never ended

Lora Nov 20 2020 11:04 am Wonderful kdrama, love all the pretty oppas am s envious of the female lead that has to be around all those beautiful men. She isnt pretty and can't act well. She made the drama totally boring anwa am gald the way the drama ended expect for ep 18 where han sung rang died totally sad about that anyway its a very good drama and a must watch.

simba Oct 27 2020 12:21 pm I like the male leads, and second female lead. Not the main actress. I cant take her acting. :'< I couldnt watch because of her

Claire Miller Sep 30 2020 3:27 pm Just finished it last night. I am so glad you translated it into English. Thank you. It was at the top of my list for one of the best shows from the Korean world. I loved the characters. I didn't have a problem with the Brother/Sister relationship because they began to know they were not related. I love that there was closure for each major relationship. I love the way it ended. Finally a happy ending, that is so rare anymore. I particularly love how Park Seo-Joon developed his character. He showed some real depth in his abilities. The sets were amazing. I will watch it again. Love, From Roy, Utah

Guest Aug 28 2020 9:16 am The part with dancing was a bit low-profile for aristocratic knights. The rest of the drama was very good.

K-Drama Queen Aug 19 2020 2:01 pm I love Korean Dramas. Hwarang is my favorite K-Drama. The story and the characters touched my heart from the beginning. I can only recommend this K-Drama to everyone. I love Hwarang very much. Best regards Janine Bartl from Germany.

Shasha Jul 30 2020 9:20 pm All my favorites are here! The chemistry of hwarangs are great! Just the sibling turned into lovers made me cringe everytime, hay. I give this drama 8/10

Maneesha Jul 18 2020 10:24 am I actually loved the acting of the cast but I personally didn't like the story becaz of the brother and sister relationship suddenly turned as love that is too bad otherwise the drama is soo good

kiki Jul 16 2020 11:08 pm boring. boring. boring. it has no plot, i expect more by looking at this cast. the leade couple have no chemy -_-

Kpopandgrime Jul 15 2020 6:52 pm This drama gets too much hate for the wrong reasons; Enjoyed the plot and the whole cast was phenomenal ( especially the elders). The only problem with this drama was the forced romance between the leads; that was just soooo extra. You can’t have the leads calling each other brother and sister in one episode; then the next they are in their feelings.

I give this drama a solid 8/10 ; if it was consistent with the bromance between the hwarangs it would have had a well deserved 10/10 from me. With all that being said; give this drama a go and u won’t regret it. Trusttttt me !!!!! Highly recommended!!!!!!!

Love From London

joji Jul 12 2020 7:07 am Exciting cast. Play of values and meanings. Pleasing visuals. Variables that can spell success. But i don’t understand why reviews were not positive. And the ratings not very encouraging. Perhaps, it is the both character and plot construction.? But it has 20 eps! Long enough to develop what needs thorough developing. Or perhaps, there were social realities during the time when the series were ran that defined the drama?

Sheryl struble Jun 22 2020 8:11 am Loved the story loved all actors. Awesome. Hated all the blood to much but I get it

hoha Jun 17 2020 4:37 pm this is for teenage girls, no plot, no story, just for them softies.

L May 21 2020 10:20 pm This show can be really good or really bad depending on what you want to get out of it. If you came for amazing acting and dark political intrigue and amazing plot, this is not the show for you. If you are bored and just want some hot guys doing hot things with mediocre acting and plot then you should watch. The plot and political intrigue is not that dark and evil, everything feels pretty shallow and surface-level, but to be honest, as a person who is not very into political dramas, I liked that about this drama. It gave enough to cause the plot to move forward but it wasn't the whole drama. Now the romance. The romance was pretty good actually. Park Seo Joon and Go Ara are pretty good actors and they had enough chemistry to convince me they liked each other. Park Hyung Sik's acting was great too; he was a more angsty character but we love that as well. The plot was 60% light-hearted, 40% serious/angsty, and I thought it worked pretty well. You don't need much brain power to watch this drama and it's a great binge drama. Overall, I give it an 8/10.

babybean May 09 2020 2:25 am It took me so long to watch this drama because I don’t like go ara. And now I watched it, her expressions in the series are most of the time out if place.

Sara May 06 2020 1:01 pm This drama had so much potential to be a great drama. The casts was so amazing. But the script wasted all. Its really bored and writernim please, you know what people hope to see from this drama, bromance! But you didnt gave so much screen for the bromance between all of them. Also, intead of go ara annoying character, her chemistry with lead male was so frustated. Omg i cant.

Chauntelle Mar 25 2020 12:08 pm I don't get why people say it wasn't good, I really enjoyed it, I laughed, cried just all, round fun show gutted there is only one season I would love to have seen more

Ann Mar 12 2020 7:44 pm It was decent. The plot was good, had so much potential but the writer didn't fully bring out the best in it till the end. The first few episodes were good but got boring in the middle, I couldn't finish the rest of the episodes. Such a waste of cast. I love historical dramas so I was excited for this. I'm sad it didn't live up to the hype.

Vey Feb 19 2020 6:44 am Can anybody explain the reason why Park SeoJoon's Character kept on fainting? From the very first episode he fainted as if there's something behind it when the father of sunwoo found him he acted as if he found out something huge behind him fainting and so as when he was tried to be assassinate.. i just find it weird... and they ended this drama real quick in last episode

Gama Jan 02 2020 6:34 am Don't know why, but Seo Ye Ji isn't fit to play as a princess (in my opinion)

Joana Nov 08 2019 1:20 am And like some says, seo joon brought me here, I love his appeal. Thou I was surprised to see hyungsik here, superb! Love it. Still on epi13

And as much as I wanna root for seo joon romance, can't help but choose the bromance with hyunsik instead. Go ara was always trying too hard. Hyunsik pursuing her was even more realistic. It wouldn't be bad if they become lovers in the end.

Joan Nov 08 2019 1:07 am Same here... I love this drama i can't believe hyun sik would be this good... I admire his martial arts skills if there wasn't any double, yes go ara messed it I always ffwd If it's her.. wrong facial expression at times. Sorry just POV

Army Oct 07 2019 7:09 pm I love ?? Hwang it’s a really good k drama I have also seen other k dramas . Kdramas are the best for me.

Somi Aug 31 2019 1:28 am It was really boring. I only watch this drama bcus of interesting cast (minho,V) bt honestly to say nothing special.

diksha Aug 25 2019 3:02 pm i dont know why people mentioned that the drama wasn't good enough....but for me it was really funny and good drama, i watched all episodes and craved for more episodes....overall rating is 8 /10..Go Ara really messed it up she always keep her mouth closed while acting...i wish that she improve her acting skills .

LadyAnn May 21 2019 7:41 am I enjoy the show to a point and yes they tried really hard to shove the romantic couples on our faces so hard which was a bit disappointing. As I thought watching a few clips here and there that they would focus on the guys building friendship from hate to this tight unity between them and it was a bit disappointing to find out otherwise. I think if they had focus on that friendship since the beginning instead of trying to find them girls for them to fall in love with it would have been great show.

Winter May 09 2019 6:22 am I'm sorry to said this but... In my opinion, the story is interesting, but Go Ara messed it up. Her acting is not good, i just cannot blend with her character and her feelings. Harshly to say, her acting is very bad. Honestly, Park Seojun brought me here, but in the end, i just cannot take my eyes off of Park Hyungsik, lol. I really want to watch this drama, but i only able to watch 1 episode. I really dont like the main female protagonist characteristic ._.

Sheeya cia Apr 21 2019 2:23 am I love this dramas very much mostly park hyungsik the best male lead.. I watch 10 times sound cool and unique and colour ful clothes and with beautiful queen. Thank you this hwarang warriors... Friendship, patience, and more love... I'm enjoying watching.. Thanks to the director and the writers and the view Asian site

Yuko Apr 17 2019 1:22 am Not a bad drama, but not very good either. Should've focused more on brotherhood/bromance than romance. Kept shoving romantic scenes that no one seems to want

Gargoyle Apr 02 2019 1:44 am Nothing is interesting about this drama. Messy plots and bad chemistry at all. Producer and director should cast better actors to play the roles not the idols like taehyung blablabla bcs of their popularity. Only able to watch about 3-4 episodes. Overall rating 2 out of 10.

Miss T Mar 14 2019 12:36 am I kept watching because i liked the cast and eye candy. The plot seemed to just go around in circles of will the Queen step down or not. Go Ara tired her best but the chemistry just wasnt there. The ratingd do reflect how the plot was shallow and not interesting. Great OST but the drama felt too long and i ended up skipping some parts because it was just moving too slow.

truefeather77 Mar 11 2019 6:21 pm I agree with AJ below, and was delighted to see someone else's perceptions matched my own. Go Ara was the only jarring note in the casting -- she seems very inexperienced as an actor, and she has to carry a lot of the plot. I didn't believe for an instant that either of the guys would find her interesting, except that one swore an oath because of her brother and the other had never interacted with any other girls. The problem is: they might find her interesting, but the audience doesn't. She has about 2 facial expressions, and no matter what the scene, she cries like a toddler who lost her lollipop. Boring.

The rest of the casting is brilliant, from principals down to minor roles. Loved the headmaster, the two kings, hated the villains -- perfect!

Spot the Evil Council-member in Coffee Prince if you really want a laugh!

truefeather77 Mar 11 2019 6:09 pm Thank you so much for the cast list! It's so hard to find anything but a partial list anywhere else, which is so frustrating!

My thanks also for this wonderful and informative listing, for a fantastic show that's among the top 10 I've ever seen, from anywhere.

Nancy Mar 11 2019 10:30 am I am in love with Hwarang! I love that V and Jin from BTS sing a song in it! I love KimTaeahyung and im a big army! Could you put more BTS characters in your movies? Please make more of Hwarang. Im on episode 10 so i dont know if it ends because of a reason in the episodes. Im working on my korean but if you reply , please try and write in english , Many thanks Nancy xxx

Ifeoluwa Emmanuel Mar 10 2019 3:25 pm I have been longing to watch this particular film. Thanks to Thee, that I was able to watch it. It's another great one ever since I hav been watching kdrama. Thanks to all the cast that was present, they all acted well. The best six hwarang, flithy guy, dog-bird, faceless king, many father owners, grandfather's best and the mean guy. Together with the looser, you know, always provoking pa oh and dan se, he did well. Hwarangs, you guys did well. The chief will always be a great character. What a intresting and intriuging one! I love him, moo myhung. He has been one of my best. He never gives up easily not even for once. He never gives up, in all videos he appears that I have been watching. I love you, Park Seo-Joon! I love you all.

Jayoung Feb 04 2019 5:28 pm I really loved Seo Yeji in this!

KenviTrash Jan 04 2019 1:34 pm I only watched this drama because of Taehyung and Minho and I couldn't understand the plot at all. It was all over the place, had many loose ends and they kept shoving the main pairing into my face when they barely had chemistry at all. I had to skip through the episodes so I can find the moments of the Hwarang and the second pairing (Ban Ryu and Soo Yeon), not the main girl crying for some reason. Overall, I give it a 4.5/10.

Kimmy Dec 20 2018 7:43 pm The drama overall is good..it could have been much better though..i loved park hyun sik (ji dwi) s character the most but as the story goes on they made his character weak perhaps to make the main character dog bird to shine more..even so, the main characters dog bird and A ro were just not that impressive at all..their love story was unnecessary and i truly couldnt feel anything for the couple..it really would have been best if the writers found a way to make the characters grow as people and have both ji dwi and dog man have a good bromance and strong characters which shine..the strong point for this drama is the bromance between all the hwarangs and the writers should have found a way to make that the focus as well as trying to make the story have a solid plot which it lacked..i love romance a lot but in this drama i found myself wishing that there was no romance between the leads and the lead girl's character was just useless..even so i did love hwarang a lot,its much better than a lot of other kdramas out there..

Nikalas TM Dec 19 2018 11:06 pm I love this teledrama and it makes my current sadness away. Actually , love this lot and I have watched 6 episodes only. I am counting to watch entire tv series today. Is it true that this teledrama had not ratings as good level. But according to my sense, It has a good , different , lovely story already. It is the best one I have watched. Then how does it happen. Anyways, I have to tell this again and again is this is awesome one. ❤️??✌️??????

Queen of You Dec 07 2018 7:39 am This is the best Korean Drama for me. Its been 2 years but I still can't get enough of it. I watch it often online. And everytime I finished watching all the episodes over again, I feel sad hahaha so after a week I watch it again!

I also think it is not fair that people compare this drama with other dramas because Hwarang is different from the other dramas where the storyline requires heavy acting all the time and the plot is complicated. In Hwarang, you will learn about the lifestyle of the youth during the Silla dynasty, especially the Hwarangs, about coming of age of the youth, of friendship, brotherhood, loyalty, romance, sacrifice, leadership, betrayal, steadfastness, among others. All that but with a lighter feel of the drama - I believe simply because the characters are portraying youthful roles. I mean it would not seem believable if they carried a more burdensome mission all throughout the show up until the end. They are young Hwarangs! For cryin' out loud! In actual history, they were in their teens when they joined the Hwarang House so...... ? Maybe this is the reason why some are disappointed because they expected a much heavier feel of the drama. In the same manner, if one is looking for a lighter drama with a happy ending then this is the show they should watch and not those that deal with extreme struggle and family tragedy from start to finish! I mean if I want to feel depressed for weeks I will go watch those hahaha!

The memorable parts for me are the funny scenes involving the Hwarangs, their chemistry is amazing all of them! The soccer match, the laundry scene, the first night at Hwarang house where they all got drunk except for Ji Dwi. I especially love Sun Woo and Ji Dwi who I thought would go up against each other in the last parts of the drama. It made me cry when they raised their swords against each other inside the palace. There are many touching moments and emotional scenes too. Like when Hansung died, when his brother mourned for him, when Queen Jisoo died, when Ji Dwi set Ah-Ro free, and when Sun Woo gave way for Ji Dwi to be King. Oh, do not forget Suho and Ban Ryu! Those two are hilarious! Especially when they are bickering ??? I really miss their friendship and brotherhood more than anything ?

Is it true that this drama received low ratings in Korea??? How??? Its such a great drama. What was the time slot? Because sometimes that is a big factor when it comes to ratings. I mean I am following a new drama now but it airs every 11am!!!! And I am at work!! See??.....

Suzy Jul 27 2018 2:14 pm I love this drama so much, I cried when han sung died, it was damn painful, his character and the way he talks just like baekhyun in moon lovers??

AJ Jun 29 2018 10:14 am Enjoyable series with a fine cast. My qualification is that I didn’t think Go Ah Ra was right for the part. Though she does have a few good scenes, mostly she is bland—the actress is neither skillful nor charismatic enough to create a character that would inspire the passion of two such beautiful, powerful men. In fact, their bromance throughout the series is charming and far more interesting.

??Maryanne Jun 18 2018 9:49 am Park Seo Joon is my favourite actor in this drama but I liked all the cast, I really enjoyed the drama, only criticism from me is the final scene at the end it would have nice to see them married. There could be a second season made out of this, with ongoing storylines. Anyway congratulations to all the cast.

Soyoon May 22 2018 2:24 pm In all honesty, I watched for Taehyung (Han Sung) but stayed for Minho (Soo Ho). For me, Minho's character was way more interesting and entertaining to watch than all the other lead characters. Granted, all the actors gave justice to their roles, but Minho somehow made it seem as if he was really Soo Ho and not Minho in Hwarang.

The plot was confusing and had lots of loose ends. At times, it seemed like they just randomly came up with something during filming and forced it into the story. It was fun to watch but lacked substance.The title is Hwarang but for some reason, they kept forcing Ah Ro (Go ara) into the story. It seemed as if during the making of the drama, they kept forgetting what they were trying to do so they threw in an Ah Ro crying, being in danger, or being angry for pathetic reasons. The actress and the character herself were had no personality whatsoever. They completely messed it up when they forced her to seem like a strong and independent character one day only to have her cry like a baby (again) the next. I honestly preferred the chemistry between Ban Ryu (Ji Han) and Soo Yeon (Da In) more than the main leads'. They were more exciting to watch and their scenes, although simple and short, were way more touching than the main leads' where it felt like they were shoving the "romance" in your throat. The bromance between Soo Ho and Ban Ryung, Ji Dwi (Hyung Sik) and Moo Myung (Seo Joon), and Hansung and Yeo Wool, were a breath of fresh air too. The scenes with them made the drama light hearted and comedic and overall fun to watch with how naturally they bonded like brothers or best friends.

The queen, was a great actress, she gave so much justice to her character but she was lacking in pronunciation, there were very serious scenes that I could not take seriously because of her pronunciation bur I do commend her acting and her trying her best. Meanwhile, Go Ara was lacking her acting. There were times where she was trying too hard and there were times where it seemed like she wasn't trying at all. Also, she cried waaay to much that it got to a point when I was literally rolling my eyes and betting with my sister that she'd cry. Fun fact : I won the bet lots of times. But there were also times that she did great so I commend her for that.

But aside from the plot and some character and acting flaws, the overall drama was not something one would not be able to tolerate at all as to give a rating anything lower than five, but had so many errors that I found bothersome, that I'd refuse to give it anything above 8. So I'd give it a solid 6.5/10.

Summarizing, there were so much tears (and they're not even mine, which is impressive, considering how much I usually cry during dramas. It was from the lovely, guess who.......... Ah Ro) that I drowned, and, the actors really brought the drama to some success.

Zoe May 14 2018 10:59 pm The story was interesting but plot lacked so much substance, the Club Partying scene was not necessary and also the major turn off in this drama it became too focus on being beautiful they don't credit for being smart, talented and resourcefulness.

Moo Myung's character really stood out the most than Ji Dwi Rang which made us believe he will end up being a King even though he wasn't.

The Bromance between Ban Ryu Rang and Soo Ho Rang has a better chemistry than the main leads have. Also whenever Ban Ryu Rang & Lee Da-In have their scenes comes I feel so excited I shipped even their just secondary love team than the lead.

Overall it was lacking in background information there are a lot of things they left out like what happen to Kang Sung? (evil step brother of Ban Ryu) also the Queen's body guard went MIA, What happened to the people outside of Silla? (the one mining the gold) Woo Reuk's is still a mystery I fell he use to work inside the Palace but chose a simpler life.

I thought Go Ara will improve her acting but I got annoyed instead there are times she's overacting and at the same time she was lacking. Seo Ye-Ji was the one who stood out the most, for her charisma and voice.

KpoppedByMyMicrowave May 12 2018 11:42 pm Warning: if ur super defensive then peace bish

I honestly can't say that I liked hwarang for the plot but more so for the characters ofc I came for taehyung and minho but then I fell in love with seo joon, hyungsik, jihan, and yoon woo

First off Go Ara cried way too damn much in this drama

I didnt really ship her with seo joon I really had second lead syndrome for this like they were so incompatible

I thought the plot was messy like someone tell me what the hell happened to minho after queen jiso died like he disappeared after that no explanation

And although taehyung dying added drama imma admit that I cried when he died like baekhyun from moon lovers much lol

I loved the bromance tho with han sung and yeo wool and ban ryu and minho (I also shipped ban ryu with soo ho's sister)

Overall I give it a 8.5/10

Miya May 08 2018 7:50 pm Warning! This my contain harsh criticism

At first I was getting hook with the story but I got turn off because 1.the rule for Hwarang that only "beautiful man" can be Hwarang are the writers are shallow? maybe they were able to redeem in Ep2 by looking for a talented candidates but this show is implying that only good looking person can apply??? 2.Is this a Modern Era? in Ep1 there is a house that looks like a club fuse with history? How messed up is that? Club Partying were not even invented at that time its ridiculous!

The only person keeping my interest in this drama is Ban Ryu Rang he strongly reminds me of Wang Yo (Moon Lovers) I can't decide if I should Like or Hate him.

CCM May 03 2018 11:49 pm I watch this drama coz of Kim Taehyung! Great acting! Hope for more drama that he will be the lead actor! But this drama has great story i enjoyed watching it!

Soo Ryu May 02 2018 1:08 am I'm a big fans of Ban Ryu (Do Ji Han) and Soo Yeon (Lee da In), whenever their scenes come I feel so excited. To be honest, both of them have a better chemistry than the main leads have, but overall I really enjoy watching Hwarang. I love to see the flower boys of Hwarang, PSJ, PHS, Ji Han, Minho, V, Yoon Woo Oppa and many more ^^. Hwarang is one of the best Saeguk drama I've ever watched, wish they produce season 2. I want to see more scenes of Ban Ryu and Soo Yeon. Hwarang hwaiting! ❤

Ryu Shin Apr 24 2018 8:04 am I'm more prefer love story between Sun Woo and Princess Sookmyung.

Nana Apr 11 2018 8:47 am I don't know why I'm crying like a baby when Kwang so (mak moon) died. He's such a great actor, his acting is so natural... He just need to appear more longer or become hwarang

Stela Mar 30 2018 10:53 am I watched it because my friend recomended me it, and sent me the link. I never heard about this actors, or BTS before, or .....and i didn't pay attention to asian people and movies..... But i like this drama and the main song a lot, i change my thoughts and vision..... Since then, i watch korean dramas, also k-pop. It conquered me.... Comedy, drama, love, good actors, good job. It willbe always in my heart - My First Korean Drama :) Thanks a lot to all who worked on it!!! :) :) :D

Shannon from Washington state Mar 28 2018 10:10 pm I am a huge fan of BTS. When I heard V was on this series, I researched and found it on a website that allowed me to cast it toy bug screen TV. I watched episode after episode and absolutely fell in love with the series and all of the actors, especially the ones portraying Hwarang. It dealt pulls you in and you can't wait for the next episode. Nicely done and I'm keeping an eye out for season two!

Khushi gupta Mar 28 2018 7:35 am This drama was too good ??I am seriously in love with main characters ...the reason of watching this drama was minho and kim tae hyung.. But I cried a lot in 18th episode, when V died ??.and when I watched him die I suddenly remembered eun( baekhun) in scarlet heart ryeo.... They both were almost same. They were most cheerful and cute but in both the dramas they died and in both the dramas they died by their brother's hand..

minsu Mar 27 2018 3:13 am Before i don't want to watch this, the beginning of the story seems so boring, but i amazed, the characters and its story are great. love also the actors here..they are so cute...Park Seo-Joon and Park Hyung-Sik..a nd others are so handsome, good actors too. MinhoDo ,Ji-Hano, Yoon-Woo,Kim Tae-Hyung &Kim Hyun-Joon.. are pretty boys..Go Ara is good too.

Lady phD Mar 14 2018 4:50 am A great drama , the st0ryline was interesting, the casts was amazing (accept the queen, her pronounciation was interupting), h0wever the ending was a bit rush but still satisfying. I acknowledge hwarang as 1 of the best historical drama i ever watch along with love in the moonlight, hong gildong, iljimae, sungkyunkwan scandal.

bhe Mar 10 2018 3:09 am am i the only one who thinks go ara's acting is a little lacking here? most of the scenes i get dissappointed on how she handles her facial expressions.. so lacking in emotion...please don't get mad at me.. just stating my opinion.. although i like this drama

Name Mar 08 2018 1:07 pm I enjoyed this drama very much, however i have a few issues with it. The female characters were incredibly lacking and were only relevant in relation to the males. It's 2018, i think we can expect stronger and more complex female characters. Ah Ro, although she had a few moments in which i liked and admired her, annoyed me because of how much of a cry baby she was and how much she got in the way. The princess was annoying as well and so was the queen. The only female character i actually liked was Soo Yeon. However, the hwarangs were great and i loved the bromance they had going on. (To be honest i shipped Yeo Wool and Han Sung). Although the show lacked in some regions (and i felt like skipping a few scenes once in a while) it was overall very enjoyable and i recommend it. I got very attached to the hwarangs and liked the character depth each of them had.

Mama2 Mar 05 2018 10:06 pm The beginning Kwang soo's acting was really good!! Never knew he can act like that

Ariannah Feb 13 2018 1:12 am I actually thought this wasn't going to be a good drama and after i watched it i literally fell in love with all the characters. Will definitely watch this many times.

Lance R Fresno (cho yoon woo's #1 fan) Jan 06 2018 12:23 am i miss the casts like go a ra,park hyung sik, cho yoon woo,seo ye ji, park seo joon and many more. too sad because yesterday is the last day of hwarran i'll miss cho yoon woo the most

nizerubi Jan 06 2018 12:21 am it was indeed a good,hearthwarming,funny and beautiful tv series I've seen. Honestly I watched it again now and it was my fourth time to watched Hwarang. I don't know but it makes me feel happy everytime I watch it.Probably because I so love all the cast in Hwarang particularly Park Hyung Sik and Park Seo Joon.Hoping that they will have new tv series together.?????????

Lucky Mhe-Mhe Dec 29 2017 12:41 pm hoping for the part 2 and 3 of the drama... saranghe Park Seo Joon ?

Lucky Mhe-Mhe Dec 29 2017 12:39 pm i can see how Park Seo Joon carried his character in the best way... i am so much amazed by his actions on the drama and keep on repeating the whole episodes all the way from ep 1-20... the last time i checked, i've been watching it for the 3rd time cycle ? waiting and hoping for more and another movies and dramas of Park Seo Joon... aja!!! God bless and keep up the best work!

Bec Dec 23 2017 8:35 pm The plot lacked so much substance. I found Sa Mek Jong's character much more interesting from the start. The main characters were absolutely disappointing and became a bore both due to lack of chemistry and depth of background information. If the drama was about Sam Mek Jong, it would have been a more satisfying drama. I only continued watching because I wanted to see Sam Mek Jong as king.

Kylo Ren Dec 17 2017 4:07 am It was a good story and I think there is another sequel because the ending lacks happennings and the title The Beginning, hence there is part two

Raisa Dec 01 2017 7:22 am I love the story!!! I love the performance of Park Seo-Joon!!!! He is a good actor! Thumbs up!??

Vienne Nov 30 2017 12:18 pm I have no interest in watching any KDramas not unless my “self-proclaimed” hubby, Park Bo Gum is one of the casts, but this TV series really caught my attention (1) because of the cute guys (Girls, we must admit it, we watch this because of them. Primarily). (2) Because it has a touch of history which I always look forward to when watching movies or Tv series, may it be Korean, American, British or even Filipino. The story is very good. Every character are so defined by their different beliefs, backstories and reason for “fighting”. And I love how all of those characters are being rolled into one story - I so love it. And I so love the Hwarangs. The different beauties and personalities of each of them makes this series standout. I miss Han Sung and his bubbly personality. I cried more than the Hwarangs did when he died. ? To top it all off, the sleepless nights I had watching Hwarang is all worth it. I would love to watch this over and over.

Venus Nov 26 2017 10:02 pm Im a big fan of ban ryu - soo yeon love team. I have no interest in watching Hwarang at first, till I skipped to episode 7 which showed the unusual encounter of the two (the butt grab scene). That scene really makes me laugh and romantically excite. They have captured many audiences here in the Philippines. Minho , Do Ji-Han , Lee Da-In make Hwarang interesting and fun to look at. Though they have few scenes, still they showed a good chemistry than the lead stars. It makes me excite every time ban ryu and soo yeon see each other, and that kissing moment really makes us alive. In addition to that, Do Ji-Han is so handsome and his smile is so fluttering. He is a very good actor and hope to see more shows of him and hope with Lee Da-In as lead stars.

Limadunia Nov 25 2017 10:25 am love this drama, the acting is also awesome!

SunShine Nov 23 2017 10:04 am I commend the people behind this beautiful drama series because they are the brain and heart of the story. Iam very fond of historical presentation and I admire the creativity, how they research and work hard to make this possible and beautiful. I also want to commend all the actors, the staff and crew for such a hardwork in creating this drama. I'm looking forward to watch more and be inspired about Korea. Keep up your spirits, be blessed, be inspired and love your country and people....Kamsahamnida Team Hwarang and KBS2??????

Deirdre Nov 23 2017 7:24 am I was dissappointed on the rating as well as the others.fell in love with park hung sik and V. Hyungsik gave justice as king.fit to the role.everyone of the 6main cast of wharangs did a decent job.good acting.great story.production is good.go aras acting.hhhmmm.also watchedcthe behindcthe scenes.the dance scene which minho choreographed and later called the neck dance.really fun to watch specially the 3 wharangs who are dancers kpop idol.Zea,Shinee and BTS.kept watching it.hope there is a season 2 for the wharangs.

cynthia Nov 17 2017 10:52 am It was a very interesting movie and l loved each character especially Moo myung thank you for the movie and I hope to see him again

Wii Nov 09 2017 10:58 am I dont get it why this have a low rating in Korean television. I love the story, I love the cheeky romantic scenes. 10/10 for the boys and miss Go Ara. I mean its comedy, and drama and mystery and romance. I love it ❤️

satidel surell Nov 08 2017 8:32 pm the essence of this drama is remarkable be it drama, comedy and action, the story itself is remarkable...how was the rating???

rose Nov 08 2017 7:04 am one of the best historical korean drama! i really fell inlove with the character of Ban Ryu ? when i first saw him on his entrance with a nice background music on Ep.1, i was like... OMG!!! he's so handsome and full of appeal! after that first appearance of him i started searching for pictures, videos, articles about ban ryu and do ji han...

Lysa Nov 05 2017 9:46 am Every night I watch this kdrama, it's so beautiful, I like Hansung (cause he is a member of bts^_*) I like them all, they are so cute(but not all).... Watch This KDRAMA you will like it...

Yani Nov 05 2017 9:17 am A very good series. Adorable cast. Not sure who's character I fell in love with. They're all handsome. Am confused with Park Seo joon and park hyung sik now. I wish there's season 2.

Lee Seo Hwa Nov 02 2017 10:39 am So, they copied Great King's Dream drama and make the same background as Great King's Dream drama I see where this period belong. So it's not from Joseon, it's from Kim Chungchu's drama.

I've seen all the episodes of Great King's Dream because of Hwarang.

PARK YOON WOO Oct 31 2017 5:19 pm I love the way tae hyung's act? and when park hyung sik act? I feel like im there! He totally catch up my heart. I dont know that tae hyung's good in acting. But i fèel in there and i love (again) the way they both act in hwarang. I wish they can do it in another korean drama (kdrama??)

shrien Oct 27 2017 3:41 am i love taetae and when han sung died i cried a lot and i truly ship the king and aa ro

maria001 Oct 26 2017 1:01 am i really love tae-yung.. i cried a lot when han sung(tae-yung) died... hwarang was very nice kdrama..

winslet Oct 25 2017 2:43 am Nice and beautiful drama, but I don't know why, but i fell in love with Ban Ryu. Even he have a cold eyes and i find it so cool! Omg!! i'm always screaming when i see him smile in hwarang :)

Swiya Raut Oct 23 2017 8:20 am Beautiful drama, significantly made, amazing story line, worth watching, fell in love with the characters, was rooting for Hyungsik all the way

Loujane Lagata Oct 15 2017 7:23 pm Hwarang is very beautiful movie and I'm in love with the characters Park Seo-Joon ,Minho and Doo-Ji-Han. ???????❤❤❤?????I wish will meet them someday... ????

Chi Chi Oct 13 2017 11:35 am I like so much these movies Hwarang.Seo Joon & Aro Very nice Couple.so lovely ????

Pearly Oct 12 2017 5:31 am I love Seo joon's acting❤❤..Fell in luv wid hyungsik❤...Dunno wats wrong wid ratings?... I enjoyed dis drama?... Loved all the hwarangs and their bromance... Cute faces❤❤

akosilhot Oct 04 2017 9:50 pm i like this drama i love the story its interesting every episode. this drama made me cry. good casting one of my favorite

Krish Oct 04 2017 3:05 am Overall, the story was well-written and all the cast members did a great job playing their respective roles. I'm quite disappointed with the tv ratings though, a lot more people should've watched this! I pity them for not having watched this drama. Nonetheless,Park Hyung Sik and Seo Joon gave justice to their roles; they are pretty awesome actors! Park Hyung Sik = ❤️?

Keytie Oct 02 2017 11:59 am The reason why i first fell in love with Park Hyung Sik is through this series. The role of the king fits him well. So much Second lead syndrome here. Storywise-i enjoyed it.

jinheung Sep 21 2017 2:35 am sama as @Honeykpoploves, after watching Hwarang i fell in love with Park Hyung Sik :D never watched any of his projects before, but i sure love to see him with long hair, it just brings up his best look and his acting isnt so bad at all, compare to go ah ra. she just cant deliver the emotion whenever she's crying. and unfortunately she needs to cry like aaaaa lotttttt in this drama

who cares Sep 19 2017 4:56 pm I don't see any chemistry between Go Ara and Seo Joon. I don't know why but I preferred Hyungsik and Go Ara. I love the storyline and and ofcourse the connection between 6 hwarangs!

Haneykpoploves Sep 07 2017 1:21 am After I watch this drama I fall inlove with PHS. ?

Nana Sep 01 2017 9:49 am Still on episode 7 & enjoying it so much. It's not too heavy saeguk & kinda like this kind of story.. I feel Go ara doesnt fit this role, but I dont want to care much about her because I want to enjoy the romance..

drama movie buff Aug 24 2017 9:51 am Once again all the characters fit and are very talented. thank you staff. They deserve awards and more recognition. Go Ara is excellent actor, she is a very versatile in acting, expression is great. All the guys is a beautiful men group. Writers did a good job and bringing K drama back to you, Keep on Fighting. Need more of stories similar. We the fans loved it, we need stories that will make us emotional and interesting. Good martial arts, and fighting credit to the coach.We hope to see a lot more of comarades stories. Thank you from your happy fans.Good Job Love you all.

Lee Seo Hwa Aug 19 2017 9:47 am The early years of King's Dream LOL! Poor people from Hwarang are already dead as old age from King's Dream.

Florence omega Aug 12 2017 9:10 am I love drunk hwarangs

Arihant Aug 12 2017 6:39 am Finally finished watching the series. This was one of the most satisfying drama watching experiences I have had! Park Seo Joon,Park Hyung Sik,Min Ho,Do Ji han make an excellent lead team of Hwarangs- if you liked other Flower boy teams, this one beats them in my opinion. The show was well cast, well written and provides action, romance, comedy and drama in abundance.Music is excellent and the score stays with you for long. I agree with other commenters that this show deserves a second season.The set up towards King Jinheung becoming the king Was well done and it would be good to see the Hwarang having further adventures

If you are hesitating due to low ratings , as I did for a long time, don't since spending time with the Hwarang team will be one of the happiest choices you will make!

QUEEN G. Aug 03 2017 3:23 am i cant get over to this drama still watching it over and over again.though i think go ara is a mis cast.please have a season 2. the hwarang have a very good acting also the queen and the princess. i really like the loveteam of soo yeon and ban ryu. but what happen to soo ha rang after the queen died? and i think it really didn't show what happened in the past.so please have a season 2. the king should have a lady love.

Jamie Jul 30 2017 9:26 pm The plot isn't that great, but all the cast seriously fit their role perfectly. I started becoming a fan of the 6 Hwarang after this. Just watching those 6 is enough for me. This drama made me cry a few times. I didn't feel any connection with Go Ara and Park Seo Joon nor Park Hyung Sik. Even if the story was just solely about the 6 Hwarang, I would still watch it.

NGS Jul 25 2017 10:33 am OMG!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I feel like I watch this drama yesterday, when the fact I watch this drama when it still airing xD December passed so fast indeed xD

Jihye Jul 22 2017 8:30 pm The King is Park Min Hyuk, latest drama Strong Woman Do Bong Soon... The other prince, dog bird is Park Seo Joon, latest drama Fight For My Way...

Cher0112 Jul 22 2017 8:23 pm i love this drama... The plot, the cast, good one for the writers... Seen this a lot of times.. This is where i i became fans of the hwarang casts... Park Seo Joon, Park Min Hyuk, Min Jo, Do Ji Han, Kim TaeHyung....their dance... I'm rooting for Do Jihan and Lee Da In, cute pair...

CBD Jul 22 2017 12:48 am Can anyone tell me who the actor who plays the crown prince is? I can't find the character on any of the cast lists.

Drama Movie Buff Jul 20 2017 8:34 pm Love the drama, so refreshing and good and we like the characters, especially Park Seo Joon, handsome bold, versitile can't help but we adore his acting. Thank you staff. We enjoy seeing him in more dramas.

Xianmeg Jul 11 2017 5:42 pm I love the plot... though i have several questions that weren't answered. The title is hwarang, kuranika it should've focused in the story of the hwarangs. I hope for a season 2... the journey of king jinheung with the hwarangs... i want to see the hwarangs in a real fight...

alexa giner Jul 09 2017 3:07 pm for me i would give the score 10 co'z i love the movie co'z ther's a comedy, and also there are part that is sad and also have romance/love

Marianne Jul 08 2017 11:50 am I was expecting more actions in the last 2 episodes. In my own honest opinion aro and sun woo don't have that chemistry ... :) I'm more kilig to ban ryu and seo Yoon... Thanks God , i watched first SWDBS , kasi if it is hwarang i won't adore that much park Hyungsik ... :) ... Hehehehe. Nabitin ako sa ending but overall my rate will be 8 out of 10...

Uckezzy Jun 30 2017 11:45 pm This drama is good,the plot,Cast.....My friend recommended this drama to me and am not Disappointed..Also i have to Admit that Soo yoon is way prettier than Ah ro,I just love it whenever the camera pans on her with smile on her face..>Wish to see more soo yoon smile.(Love You)

Ashley Jun 30 2017 5:09 am I wasn't a fan of kdrama. I simply watched one episode with my cousins. However, I got hooked to Hwarang. It had a great story. It tied things together although I still have questions that remained unanswered. I hope they make a season 2.

Uckezzy Jun 29 2017 12:52 am The ending is a relief for me. And I agree that the actors did as best as they could with what they were given, especially PSJ and PHS. Moving on to Strong Woman Do Bong Soon, I can't wait!

Norma Huerta Jun 20 2017 9:58 pm i like a lot , the drama the actors I have see it several times and still I enjoy it ,i will like to see more i will following the actors movies and more if is this good , greetings to all good job!!

Zu Er Jun 19 2017 9:02 pm this is one of the best drama i've watched. besides the visuals of the casts, the story is very interesting, though it may be a little confusing at the starting. I love all the action scenes and the love story that revolves around the characters. rlly rlly good drama. there are quite a few cute and funny moments and i love it so much. park seo joon look so manly i love it.

Queen Jun 17 2017 3:05 am This is the worst saeguk drama i have watched so far and both the main leads are so annoying in every way. park hyung sik is the only good thing that's in this drama.

safaithcruz Jun 14 2017 4:12 am Kim Tae-Hyung is ♥♥♥.

Kanade Jun 10 2017 6:06 am The drama is very good, and i like it. But i need more park seo joon's smile :)

Kanade Jun 10 2017 6:04 am The drama is very good, but I need more Seojoon's smile :)

rch Jun 09 2017 11:47 am I want to ask, is it true that HALO's Ooon is also in this drama? Thank you.

V Jun 07 2017 2:11 pm i thought this drama was amazing, despite a few flaws. And like everyone else, I wish Sam Maek was the main character; it would've been a better story. But overall amazing! really recommend.

Ai Jun 03 2017 1:32 pm Like most people said, It would have been actually great if Ji Dwi was the main bc the character is really interesting and his struggles were interesting. However, the title is "Hwarang" and drama barely showed anything about hwarangs. They focused more on political stuff, birth secrets, romance and the usual tiring sageuk tropes. I mean I'm a Park Seo Joon fan and i'm so disappointed, I couldn't even finish it. The non existent chemistry between PSJ and GAR was the last straw. Still can't believe the PD did Bridal Mask. :/

Fathun Jun 01 2017 1:49 pm How I wish park hyun suk was the main character ?

Mai May 29 2017 10:48 am I retract my earlier statement, Sam Maek wasn't given any character development either. I just really liked the character, probably bc the actor is hot. So there was no one in the whole show who had characer development.

Mai May 29 2017 10:42 am The main character should have been Sam Maek Jong and the whole story should've revolved around him and his struggle to be a great king. The show gave Sam Maek slightly good character development (could have been developed SO much further) and all the other characters remained static throughout. A 20episode show with no character development whatsoever...everyone literally remains the same except Sam Maek. The romance between the main leads was forced, and the conflict about Dog-Bird being a potential king was easily predictable from the moment Dog-bird took Sam Maek's bracelet in the 2nd or 3rd episode. Wasn't really impressed by how the writers created Go Ara (she was annoying AF') and later hated both Go Ara and Dog-bird. Also, really hated how the writers weakened Sam Maek. Kind of regret wasting my time watching this show, the only reason I continued watching was because I wanted to see Sam Maek obtain the throne. However, it's not worth suffering through twenty episodes.

Mawiii May 27 2017 8:54 am Hii! I just finished watching Hwarang. Well, it was a good korean drama. Others might be watching the drama because of its main cast but for me. What really hits me the most is how they show types of reality of a family in the drama...

Let me share my pov for the characters.. Ive watched a lot of kdramas already that the main cast had and I like them. But I dont like or feel the love relationship or of Ara and Seoo Joon. About the relationship of the roommates it was a cutie love and hate relationship(somehow a weird one maybe).

I wish they also focus (a long one, not just 2 eps) on the story on the old life of seo joon* lol

Tres May 24 2017 10:36 am I'm a big fan of Hwarang. Before it aired in 2016, I was already expecting since 2015. I love the story, the casts and the drama itself. But I just can't understand why I didn't saw Minho in the finale scene. You know, when the main Hwarangs was riding a horse. I'm looking for Minho but to my dismay he's not even there. Where the heck is he?? T.T

There's too many unanswered questions that desperately demands an acceptable answers. We hope for a season 2, puhleaseeee...

Still loving all the Hwarangs though. :)

Rhod May 22 2017 5:58 am It was very addictive ..I want season 2.!!! I want more !!!hihi??I loved Hwarang!!!!

x May 20 2017 10:16 am Although the drama is so very addictive, I have so many unanswered questions. I think 20 episodes aren't enough to tell the whole story. I mean, what's the purpose of the several fainting of Moo Myung? It even started from the very first episode. Although Ah Ro's father knew that he was sick, the drama didn't clearly tell what kind of illness it was. All I know was that, it's a disease that has to do with the brain. I thought Ah Ro was as almost good as his father? Why didn't she get curious about it? Lol. I could go on and on and I may take forever. But I will never get any answers. ? It's just that, I am really bothered. Till the end, I kept thinking of season 2, there were still so many questions and yet I'm already at the last episode. I knew it wouldn't be enough.

And it wasn't enough.

Media Febrianingtyas May 18 2017 11:26 am This drama actually is pretty good. It starts of nicely and become more interesting in the middle, esp. the incident happened in Bakjae. But after Bakjae incident, the storyline becomes a little bit boring, lost direction and some stories are unnecessary. It's quite disappointed for me when Sun Woo turns out to be another holy-blood, you name it. It's not necessary bcs we hope Ji Dwi will be a king with an honor. Maybe the writer expect the viewers are surprised or something when knowing that reality, but I am not. However, despite the critics and disappointment, this drama is enjoyable to watch. Just bring more snacks after ep. 17, cz it gets boring :))

Fem1017 May 14 2017 10:01 pm True is the saying of Dont judge the book by its cover ..At first, I didnt like it so I stop watching it coz I thought It was a no good casted with guys with looks ..But I continued watching it yesterday through phone and I must say the story is good and the two lead actors are great ..Park hyung sik is so good on his facial expressions and I could say that he is a good actor ..

skukian May 12 2017 12:12 pm Definitely one of the best n my favorite drama!! I still cant get over do ji han!!! This was one of those dramas wer u cant decide whether the female lead should end up with the male lead or the supporting actor... Excellent cast, story.... Beautiful men throughout the drama.. Wat more can a girl ask for??

Ban Ryu's TRASH!!! May 11 2017 8:28 am Fxck, I fell in love with Do Ji Han the most in Hwarang #smittenbyBanRyu xD I was supposed to be fangirling over Seojun and Hyungsik.. but damn, Ban Ryu shook me the most (๑ơ ₃ ơ)♥

mai May 11 2017 3:29 am I really love this Movie Series..I watched it many times...I hope they will have another movie...we are still hoping.. Fighting my Hwarangs..

jes May 10 2017 11:10 pm Honestly, am not fond of historical kdramas but when i tried this "hwarang, i was in awe. absolutely, i fell inlove with them (cast). i love watching each episode and really got hooked. kuddos to hwarang family!! thumbs up!

RaRa May 09 2017 9:06 pm OML Tae Tae in this series is mmmmmhhhmmmfffff, my life is complete.

Lee Seo Hwa May 06 2017 11:08 am This drama is so homo af! But still a good drama lol!

Wanti K. Pratama May 04 2017 3:21 am I really love this drama. 6 handsome guy (maybe you should make a boyband together) XD .. A Ro a.k.a Go-Ara was pity in this drama, beacuse she always crying :') ... really missing our cuteness tae tae.. i hope you'll role in another drama with park hyung sik-oppa wkwk XD

nessy May 03 2017 8:25 pm I really love the story it gives me chills and excitement I love the two leading man really.I wish to meet one of them in person hihi. I cant get over with this drama its worth watching not minding my eyes waaaaaahhh, I really love them all..kk thanks

Jin May 02 2017 8:19 pm Just realized that they didn't tell what kind of illness does sunwoo had..avout him always passing out???..can someone tell me..thanks

jeonbae Apr 30 2017 6:17 am i love the two leading man so badly that im gonna die! hahaha the story was so amazing and i dont mind watching it over and over again!

pinksugar Apr 25 2017 9:35 pm Once in a while a drama comes along that is so amazing you can't help but have withdrawal issues once it's over. That is what I experience with Hwarang. At first, I was hesitant to watch it because I am not really a fan of historical dramas and the ratings were not that high. Good thing I tried watching episode 1 and fell in love with the story right away. This drama is so beautiful and I found the main characters and supporting characters interesting and unique. The OST is one of the best I've listened to and it captured the scenes perfectly. I also loved the writing style of the writer and I want to watch another drama that is written by her. Too bad she only has short drama specials prior to this. Hopefully she can write another great drama soon. I will surely watch it. And finally I love Park Seo Joon and Go Ara's chemistry. All the Hwarangs were also daebak.

K R Apr 23 2017 8:42 pm Watched Hwarang the second time, not sure why I'm so hooked on it but I am! This drama was a "fail" to viewers but not for me. The chemistry between Seojoon & Go Ara was there since the the first episode. (SPOILERS) kind of....

Beginning with the first episode you see DB/Seonu, Jidwi& Aro being introduced, the scene with DB/Seonu& Aro was surperb. Then later on, Seonu continues to be there, save her, and love her.

The chemistry with Jidwi and Aro was that he loves her so dearly even when he knew her heart wasn't with him. You'll see he does all he can to have her look his way& you'll definitely see in (her acting and character) that she has no care for him in that way.

I'm just happy that Seonu and Aro ended up together. (This is probably the first time I didn't feel the second lead syndrome)

Highly recommend to watch this drama!

klarisse Apr 22 2017 10:47 am I really love them all for real !

klarisse Apr 22 2017 10:28 am I really love dis drama i just can't get over w/ their acting skills. I don't know y others find its boring but for me it's one of the best drama i've watched. Hwaiting! ^^

jilcel Apr 21 2017 10:05 pm Hwarang is one beautiful K drama if only they don't have this girl name Go Ara ! I don't like her acting style! She seems to be over reacting in every scene! It's always as if she is in shock! I can sense that her acting is not sincere. I'm sorry but her acting level cannot be included in the ranks of Park Shin Hye, Park Bo Young, Gu Hye Sun, and Kim So-Hyun among others. She better get some acting workshop ! She's just a pretty face in Kdrama world, nothing else!

Honestly, it's the male cast who gave justice and life to the story as well as their acting are all superb! If only they did not focus on that girl's role that much, Hwarang will be one great Korean drama! #JustMyTwoCents

Kai Apr 21 2017 1:27 pm I don't know why others are saying it's boring because thw two leads don't have any chemistry but for me I really liked them anyway. And from the very start of the episodes, I already knew that Park Seo Join is rhe lead that's why I already shipped the Go Ara and Seo joon in the drama. Hyungsik is handsome too that's why others thought he's the lead but if you're going to focus on the first episode it is very clear that Seo Joon would be the lead. I really loved it and it is highly recommended. :)

lyd Apr 21 2017 1:01 pm I hated the love story between go ara and her brother, they could just skip love story part because the love story was annoying and bored. if I was the director I could just show what happens between the hwarangs and not that love story of go ara.... better ban ryu and her girl looks so cute

princess rain Apr 21 2017 1:03 am i watched this drama , and i could say it was good . Though i was really rooting for hyung-sik and go ara!. :) but still its good!

Shani Apr 20 2017 12:23 pm What a story!! Dog-bird and Ji dwi I love you both.. Watched second time but couldn't get my eyes with it . Very interesting story.. Lot of thanks for Director and the cast.

shengtabs Apr 20 2017 8:06 am because we can't get over with Strong Woman Do Bong Soon's Hyung-Sik madness. my mom asks me to watch this. but it seem's like I'm still looking for funny "Min-min" Hyung Sik. I did not appreciate his character. and I don't like Go Ara's acting. but my mom with my nieces continue to watch this because of Hyung Sik.

Ddd Apr 18 2017 9:55 am Don't watch this drama. It's only a waste of time. The lead girl is so annoying. Her acting is so poor and her attempt to show emotions and act cute at the same time makes this drama much worst. I only watched this drama until episode 6 but is totally unbearable only park hyung sik and the hwarang boys were able to pull off the role weel but the leads failed to do so. Expectation from this drama os too hight and i am so disapppointed.

Clarissa Apr 17 2017 12:12 pm I love ban ryu and soo yeon together, they're just so cute!! I especially like it because ban ruy and soo ho are (fr)enemies..

Kimberly Apr 15 2017 4:24 am Loved this drama so much! I usually don't like "historical" genres but this one had my heart racing.

I love the relationship with park seo joon& go ah ra? I feel like I'm the only one who feels this way but I had hoped seo joon was crowned.

Lili Apr 14 2017 11:19 am I am so in love with the king!!! Very disappointed that Ah Ro did not choose him. Would have been better if park Hyung sik played the main role.

christina Apr 13 2017 8:55 am To me, when an actor made me fall head over heel over a character he played, he is successful. Now I need to separate Park Seo-Joon from Moo Myung/Sun Woo... Thank you for such a good story Park Eun-Young sshi

Jinn Apr 10 2017 12:27 am I have a lot of questions in mind but since havent finish it yet i will find the answers for myself and return to comment again...

Dee Apr 09 2017 3:01 pm Before i started watching hwarang i already had this idea that Park Hyung-Sik was the lead. I was surprised to find out later that he wasn't, and though he didn't end up with go ara, who for some reason i never came to like, he was still my favorite (along with tae hyung, my primary reason for watching this drama) and i really think that he did a great job. Despite all the shortcomings of the drama, i think it was quite good, and i'm a bit surprised that the ratings weren't better. And in my opinion, the best couple was ban ryu and soo-yeon, and all the handsome men in this, was what pushed me through till the end of the drama.

Emmeline Richards Apr 08 2017 9:03 pm I just want to say that while Park Seo Joon is hot and all, he had absolutely no chemistry with the leading lady of this drama. I have nothing against Go Ara unlike some other comments I've read but I think she (at least here) cries too much, acts too falsely, and doesn't get emotions across correctly. I was really going for the 2nd lead thing until ep 10 where all my hopes were dashed. And all their scenes are just too predictable and stereotypical; it hurts my head just to watch. Cute story but terrible romance.

zarira Apr 06 2017 12:18 am Help me.. i can't move on from this drama..?

trash4tay Apr 05 2017 10:02 am i dont get why ppl are hating on the actress her character was terribly written. she was cute in the beginning but she just turned into a cry baby, and go ara had to liven this mess of a character up. i think go ara did a nice job with what she had. 2nd lead was a LOT more interesting than the main lead even tho theyre both amazing actors. hyung sik really livened up his character, who was really pitiable. this kdrama started off SOO well, and i honestly thought 2nd lead would end up with the girl bc (SPOILER!) of the kiss in ep 6.. tbh, i didnt feel the chemistry between the fake brother main lead and ah ro. i had to skip all their scenes bc it was very predictable. also (SPOILER!) Hansung's death in ep 18 was really tragic, but im glad taehyung got to play the most emotional scene in the drama. as a rookie he did well and i feel like this will help him to get bigger acting parts in future dramas. Overall, I don't regret watching this drama bc of all the amazing actors (minho, jihan, tae, seojun, hyung sik etc) but i really wish I could have changed the last 10 eps

harumashee Apr 04 2017 11:33 am It was a roller coaster ending! Spectacular! BUT let me clear this up: 1st- I got pissed off with Moo Myung. because I thought he will be doing the thing I don't want, good thing coz it didn't happen. 2nd-the Moo Myung and A-Ro do not have any chemistry at all I swear, in the first episode I already sensed it will, and it did. 3rd Ji Dwi/ King and A-Ro has a better chemistry. Lastly- Ban Ryu and Soo Hyeon love team gave me chills,their chemistry was on top, hahaha, I would prefer their pairs more than the main casts pairs. That's all and the overall rate for me 7 1/2/ 10. Park Hyung-Sik/Ji Dwi/Sam Maek you are my favorite. My first korean actor crush.

Rayne Genesis Apr 03 2017 12:00 pm I don't understand why this show didn't do well it's so good. I think people expected it to be some great epic but I don't think that's what it's trying to sell. I think its really portraying youth but just during the silly dynasty. It's kinda like what a school drama would be like but in period drama form. It's not supposed to be some serious action and political intrigue drama. Sure there are aspects of that because that's the reality of those times but what it really is about is the young men growing into themselves. They're not all Bad ass but that's because no ever starts out bad ass. This is there beginning not their ending as it says in the title. We are simply as viewers watching them make bad decisions, fall in love, and struggle with their roles In society just like all youth do today. At the ending they finally figure out that they can choose for themselves who they want to be and what they want to fight for. The drama is about making choices and who you are not about becoming bad ass fighters. I think it did perfectly portraying all of this and I absolutely loved it.

VSB Apr 01 2017 7:18 pm Hwarang is a good story. It has shown what hwarangs really are. I admire this one for transpiring a great concept and feel good scenes. There were also scenes that moved me (an example: the death of han sung rang). I also love the OSTs.

More so, some of the actors have shown superb acting skills. However there were also some who haven't. The two leading actors, in particular (Sun Woo and Ji Dwi's character) were great actors. But some could have been more natural upon acting.

Generally, I got it. Big thumbs up for this one. :)

Danniah. Apr 01 2017 3:33 pm This drama is quite good despite all critics and bad comments (I agree to most of it). If you want to watch a cute historical drama which is full of good-looking actors, you should check this out. The story is not heavy and really easy to understand.

Unfortunately, this drama is not for me and those who are saga-lovers. If you want to watch the real Hwarang then you should watch Queen Seondeok instead. The hwarang in Queen Seondeok is very loyal, strong, smart, good looking, best in martial arts, and advance in arts. They know their reasons to exist and pursuit it wholehearted. They are nothing but perfect. As for this drama, the Hwarang is easily distracted by personal problem, relationship, and romance. Its main lead Park Seo-joon is good in acting but his action scenes are not that good, looks very fake. Even if this is not an action drama, but the production team should make better action scenes, after all this is historical drama and action scene is one of its nature. As for the co-lead Park Hyung-sik, he proves his skill in acting. I really love his character, the most consistent one. Though there is a girl he likes, at the end he still walks the road of crown. The main actress Go Ara, I skip most of her scenes. This is the first drama that I hope the lead actress doesn't end up with anyone. LoL. Sometimes, I just hope for her to go and leaves Seon-woo and King Jinheung alone. Haha. She is the problem in this drama. They should choose another actress to play Aro then change her character. This is not how lead actress supposed to be.

K Mar 30 2017 10:17 pm A couple of words to sum up this drama: wasted potential and very bad writing.

I actually liked how it started out. Kwang Soo and Park Seo Joon were awesome in their scenes together. I thought I had stumbled upon another one of the "good" dramas. How wrong I was.

Now, this is the first work of Go Ara's I have come across. I have no idea how she portrays her characters in her other works, but despite how Ah Ro's character is badly written, I believe said character could have been pulled off better. I absolutely hated her here. Facial expressions are terribly limited and repetitive, and sometimes downright inappropriate and distracting (esp the crying scenes, which there are too many of). This does not make me look forward to watching dramas with her in it.

Park Seo Joon, I have nothing against. Despite how his character is forced into this zero-chemistry-one-track romance with his fake sister, I could still see him as a really good actor. He has a wide range of emotions and I feel sorry that the writing was so bad, great acting couldn't really save it anymore.

Hyung-Sik is one universally loved character in this drama. I'm not really his fan, but he portrayed his role well enough in this, again, despite the bad writing. I didn't really get all the people going for the second lead thing, because I didn't see anyone light so much as a spark with Ah Ro's character anyway.

And can we just talk about how there could have been so much character development done instead of just dallying around for so many episodes? Gahd. This was such a bad choice for a pre-produced drama; the "ensemble" cast was such a waste, too. It's like the writer just had a vague idea on how to start the drama, then didn't know what to do with everything else. It's sad, really. It could've been great. Could've been. It pains me to see such a good concept go to waste.

Sigh*

mai Mar 28 2017 6:27 pm I missed all of the Hwarangs I hope another movie series for them...fighting Oppa

morphine0926 Mar 28 2017 1:08 pm 1. The first few eps are interesting however story got loose in the middle. 2. They hwarangs are eye candy for sure but the best chemistry has been Kwangsoo-Seo Jun. They acted very well! 3. Veteran actors are really great. It's more fun to watch dramas that has stellar acting from the cast. Some hwarangs are rookies that sometimes I get frustrated that some scenes does not deliver - it's such a waste. well at least they're good looking. 4. Ara and Seo Jun has 0 chemistry. 5. The setting and details of this drama is not like your usual historical drama, some scenes look toooooo modern hahaha but if you keep in mind that Hwarang is a feel good drama then it's okay :)

blue Mar 27 2017 8:53 pm I watched this without expectations and the first episode really hooked me. then when I saw the king, I fell in love ❤ this is a kdrama for people who likes to feel a lot of emotions. hyung sik's (king jinheung) acting was so good that I began to feel also his emotions, especially when he was tested whether to confess as a king or not. One of my most fave Kdrama. No regrets watching it. the characters are superb and will make you fall in love. xx

Tee Mar 27 2017 2:37 pm I don't like A-ro character at all she was acting to childish always crying over sun-woo and I felt she shouldn't have fallen for her fake brother anyway the drama is ok.

K_Lee Mar 27 2017 1:30 am I've previously seen Go Ara's acting in couple of dramas and she wasn't that bad, but in this drama she was acting like a rookie. Thanks to Choi Min-ho and Do Ji-Han (Frenemies)they made show interesting.

zarira Mar 25 2017 11:10 pm Love this last episode.. the main actor Made a good choice.. i'm not one of them fan but i'm still watch it till the end because it's interesting.. watch a warrior class and any problem inside ^^.. good story.. recomended..

Rina Mar 25 2017 11:07 pm I really love this drama. Great actors, great acting, awesome storyline. I think i'm in love with Park Seo Joon and Park Hyung Sik ?❤

jekk Mar 24 2017 11:51 am reallyy lovee this drama both the actor actress and the storyline. usually get bored and couldnt finish historical dramas but every eps of hwarang make me cant stop watching till the end, highly recommended especially for historical dramas' lovers. TAEHYUNG SO DAMN CUTEE and also banryuuuu

harold myo aung Mar 22 2017 12:07 pm Im watching it now, it is boring , bad story ,the lead actors are terrible in acting i saw park seo joon in " she was pretty "still terrible in his acting , no wonder it has low ratings, if i would rate it 6/10

Jane Mar 22 2017 9:07 am Until the end it was very satisfying. Highly recommended historical korean drama. Love it! <3

boink Mar 21 2017 10:42 am It was promising. And then it got boring. There was not even a bit of spark with the love triangle. The plot line just had too many logic slips. One good thing that came off from this drama is it showcased Park Seo-Joon's versatile acting. He was remarkable in portraying the different emotions and identities that his character experienced. My favorite is the goofy Dog-Bird side. He was an absolute delight to watch.

Park Hyung-Sik, the reason I watched this, was his usual charming self. He was perfect for the role of the boy-king, struggling to uphold his birthright while still on the path of discovering who he really is. I just loved everything he portrayed, whether he looks lost, hopeless in love, brooding, stately or goofy.

Kazeu Mar 17 2017 8:04 am I started watching to support Tae Hyung in his first acting job. I stopped watching after episode 18 because in my eyes, there was no reason to watch after that. I loved his and Yoon Woo's character. I liked Hyung Sik too but everyone else annoyed me. I think the writing was the biggest problem for this show. It started off pretty good but it got pretty tedious and the whole situation annoyed tf outta me. I can't finish it, so someone tell me what happened in the last two episodes.

seon Mar 14 2017 12:37 pm sooo beautiful drama .. great actors , the story is supperb... i love everything about this drama , i don't know why it gets low rating !!!! i really enjoying watching every episode ... highly .. highly .....highly recommanded

marigolds Mar 14 2017 2:01 am I loved it so much! My fave historical drama!! I love all the Hwarangs particularly Sun Woo and Suho!! I hope there's a season 2.

Kikikokk Mar 12 2017 10:15 pm Skipped from ep 6 to 20, can't stand the story line and sun woo and ah ro characters. Rooting for Ji Dwi to stay as the king. I used to be PSJ fans but sorry to say not anymore, Hyungsik shines brightly in this drama. His acting superb!!

Spurnamasari Mar 12 2017 10:43 am Great actors Bad story

Sarah Mar 10 2017 2:02 am I love it. <3

april Mar 09 2017 3:45 pm love this drama so much!

fanatic Mar 09 2017 11:24 am im going to miss sun woo huhuhuhu

spoiler Mar 08 2017 5:11 pm i stopped watching it when hae sun died like i wanted yeo woolxhae sung fanservice so bad that his death was the end of hwarang to me lol

no name Mar 06 2017 9:12 am tbh they should focus more on jidwi's character bc he's the king. i was so mad when the writer made sunwoo admit he's the king in front of the baekjae crown prince when he's NOT. and sunwoo act like he is the king really irritates me. hmm. i pity jidwi character it makes him look sad and pathetic as a king. plus the love line too, it just doesn't match? dont get me wrong seojun is a bae, but i dont see the connection there. not to forget poor story line. this drama was a total disappointment. and im only on ep 18 and dont feel like continue it. im sorry but i would rate this 3/10.

Chiyo Mar 05 2017 10:45 am @Goddess LeeSungKyung I agree!! I think Ah Ro was SO annoying. She was crying all the time, or talking to herself. I really don't understand why did Sunwoo fall in love with her. Banryu, the King, and even the Princess were much better characters than the main leads. It was funny sometimes, and it had good actors in it, but it's really nothing special. Go and watch Queen Seon Deok, Empress Ki, Six flying dragons or The Tree with deep roots if you wanna see a real good sageuk.

rushdinx Mar 05 2017 3:39 am Oh and please ignore the ratings and just enjoy watching hwarang!

rushdinx Mar 05 2017 3:38 am This is the best historical drama!! Highly recommended!! You do not need to have high expectations on this drama, you just need to enjoy it. And once you enjoy watching it, its really worth to watch! If you want to read my review on this drama, its at the bottom, the name is Rushdin posted on 28 feb. The main casts are all great! I was really impressed with Taehyung's acting. This is his first role in a drama and he acted really well! thank you director for making a great drama and casting great actors, and also to the singers Yoseob, hyorin, hyungsik and more for the great and touching OSTs :') im really happy that i enjoyed watching hwarang *thumbs up* :)

K fan Mar 04 2017 5:02 pm Who said the story is not that interesting bla bla... That's really bull. Just watch before read these things here please.

I swear this is one of the best drama of 2017. The main cast is all young from most 90's time liners what's surprising and nice and of course I loved it. Park seo joon oppa and park hyun shik are very talented when they do these kind of roles where expressions and acting skills are very important.

The story is well done and acting of everyone was very convincing. Lee kwang soo's cameo made me cry, he was so confident. I think again people need to watch and then read some of these comments.

It's really worth it. I really hesitated after read those stupid comments but now I think I made good decision. It's worth it! ❤❤❤❤

Ea Mar 04 2017 4:52 am I've watched this from the very beginning, so I thought that I'd share some of my thoughts here. I won't write another long review, because all of my opinions about the poor storyline have been written already. I think if you can accept from the start that this won't be a twisty, nail bitingly exciting story, you can have fun with it. But if you came here with great expectations you probably won't like it. I get that there were so much more potential in this cast and story, and that they missed it it's annoying, but it is what it is. Instead of a blockbuster it's an afternoon family show.

Nonetheless I liked it, and before you suspect me, kpop isn't my cup of tea, I just like light and fun stories (and you can skip the boring parts anytime) so even if I haven't got excited about the main leads romance and vicissitudes, I found the King's part, and the others things interesting enough to keep watching.

I'm open for a second season but only if they listen to the viewers and improve the storyline. For now, the Hwarang gets a 7 out of 10 from me :)

Chimiel Mar 03 2017 8:32 pm Guys, please stop! It's fine if you don't like this drama but don't tell others to feel like that too. Don't blame the other people who love this drama! Everyone has their own opinions so don't say that those people who love this drama are biased etc. To those who haven't watch this drama yet, don't be influenced by the bad comments. Watch it yourself and rate it. I like this drama but I won't force any of you to like it. It's your choice. Haters, don't blame other people. Seriously, the casts did a great job! If you want to blame the writer, why don't you produce your own drama and see if it's easy or not? I don't want to cause any trouble but it seems a little bit unfair here.

Gail Song Mar 03 2017 4:05 am I have come to love this show after watching 6 episodes in one sitting. I don't watch a lot of saeguk drama so I guess I wasn't expecting too much like other viewers but this is a good thing I guess, I don't really like watching too much heart-wrenching dramas with all the dying scenes because after watching Goblin, it made me like a really emotional person. I am shallow so judge me. But I personally think this show did great though I agree the storyline could've been great if Ah ro was not such a crybaby all the time and like the story did not surround her at the very least! Love triangle my butt! I love the princess Sook myung, her character was Daebak (ㆁᴗㆁ✿)

Kanja Mar 02 2017 4:51 pm While I personally didn't think the storyline to Hwarang was completely terrible, it was not the best Saeguk drama in the slightest. It was more so click bait for the younger generation...hence the casting for the likes of Choi Minho, Kim Taehyung etc. I could technically even throw Park Youngsik in there as well, but he has already established himself as a well season actor, and the role selected for him was done pretty well. But overall as the story went on their were obvious hit & misses, but I've watch majority of the drama and was okay with...but again if you're looking for real saeguk period drama that are very engaging from start to finish, Hwarang would not be the best choice to watch.

Hwang Jiyi, Moon Embracing the Sun, Scarlet Heart: Ryeo, Faith (Shin Eui), The Princess Man, Queen Seon Duk or Empress Ki would all be much better Saeguk choices before Hwarang in my honest opinion.

yengkwon Mar 02 2017 12:46 am even if i was impressed by park hyung sik acting this drama still sucks tho. i started to watch this drama not bec of the flower boys but it was because of ah ra and her roles in this draa was a total failure, ah ro is sucks and no matter how good ah ra potrayed ah ro character and i k she's nailed it but this role just super lame, Gae Sae too, this character is stupid and not seo joon's fault the writer is SUCKS! i thought it gonna be a good drama but it turned out just a bunch of good looking guys trying to playing as a heroes in a costume. The plot sucks, the love story is irritating me so freaking badly. The actor and actresses did a great job but the whole story was a joke. promise you king jinheung and whoever lived in that era probably will kill those writers if they could. The Queen, Park young shil, The princess, and sam mek jeong were the best in playing their part. Gae sae probably is fine without ah ro but seo joon did a pretty good job. Totally mess, they even trying to create a sister-brother love story like reply 1994 where ah ra played as a little sister who fell in love with someone who like her brother, in this case she's just an annoying,cry-baby lil sister. NOPE, one of the worst drama that wasted my time. and... if u want to tell me dont watch it if i dont want to, its my right to say whatever i want.. i dont wanna someone be a victim to wasting their time for watching this stupid drama. this is my first historical drama i dont think i will watch another after this one, SUPER BORING.

Yeonwa Mar 01 2017 4:03 pm @pochoy, Mee, Goddess LeeSungKyung Aahhh finally someone who thinks the same as me. This drama is more focus towards generating income base from its actors. Dont tell it's the best historical drama if you havent watch other masterpieces like queen seon deok and moon embracing the sun. Dont be too bias on your oppa! XD

Goddess LeeSungKyung Feb 28 2017 3:16 pm Overrated sageuk. Stayed for the King, Banryu and the Princess' acting. Others wasted their talent in this drama since it has so less to bring out from the actors. Overrated, trust me.

Mee Feb 28 2017 1:47 pm If you think this is the best sageuk, i'm pretty much sure you haven't watched that much. Or you are still around teenager age. Because i'm sure this drama targeted for teenager viewers. This is not even has sageuk feel, just feels like modern boy cosplaying. If you love this drama so much, just say you love it. Saying it's the best just too much.

jx Feb 28 2017 5:52 am Really worth watching! Wont disappoint you :)

Rushdin Feb 28 2017 5:33 am To be honest, this is the best historical korean drama that i have ever watched!! The plot and its storyline really excite me and made me more anticipating for the next episode every episode that was released. Its not because of the number of flower boys thaf blinded the viewers, once you get the feeling of the storyline, this drama is actually great. The OSTs are really good too!! Trust me, this drama wont dissapoint you! At first when i started to watch this, i was not that interested but after watching a few episodes, i was so anticipated for the next plot REALLY The actors really acted well and conveyed their emotions well too! The ending was great!! :') I was really happy that its a happy ending and was sad that its the final episode because i was attached to HWARANG already.. the drama is super good serious :') i cried joyfully at the ending.. After finishing watching Hwarang, listening back to all the OSTs of hwarang really made me miss the hwarang moments and scenes that ive enjoyed :') trust me. I even searched the real history of hwarang and silla kingdom hahahah "post hwarang depression" seriously. i find myself feeling nostalgic listening to the ost and remembering of watching hwarang.. My point is Hwarang is highly recommended drama to watch! Ignore the ratings and i promise you that you will enjoy watching this drama! :)

Pochoy Feb 27 2017 7:15 am Hi, im an avid watcher of korean dramas especially saeguk and i can't believe how people have been praising hwarang for its storyline. I know we all have different preferences but sorry to say this is one or the worst saeguk drama i have ever watched. It's obvious that the popularity came from the mass number of flower boys cast which blinded the viewers and make them one sided. to those who havent watch it yet, you might want to reconsider. I waste my time finishing til ep 16 believing it will turn good but I started to lose hope. I hope the upcoming saeguk dramas will restore my faith cause this one totally ruined it. 6/10

Nesum Feb 27 2017 6:47 am Such a great story, beautiful girls, great actions and soo many handsome boys. Saranghee Choi Min ho , Park Seojoon and Go Ara.

Ending was great acting was great everything was great

richadiana kartakusuma Feb 27 2017 6:25 am A very nice ending so beautiful full of surprises and special elegance Silla kingdom. King graciously forces with raises the heroic spirit

congratulation

Nuphar Feb 27 2017 4:48 am I really liked this drama. I know what was going to happen most of the time but i loved watching drama with nice story great actors and light feeling ! Mabey in a year i wiil watch it again

yosei Feb 27 2017 1:04 am Started this because of V and Minho... and so glad I did! I'm not really into historical dramas but still found myself loving this. I really like the cast and the ost is great. While it is not the greatest k-drama, it's still worth watching.

seegorgeous Feb 27 2017 12:31 am For me this was the definition of light hearted drama . It has ups and downs if you were a kdrama watcher you'd probably agree with me nevertheless because of it's simplicity which makes it more easy for me to cope up with the pace and hardly letting it go in the end. This drama somehow made me pick up the pieces of my heart thinking of empress ki back then and six flying dragons. It really took me a week to get over those two great drama. Like duh 50 episode of torture but nothing can compare the professionalism of it's character (It's a very good one i still recommend it). Back to hwarang it's a shame that it has 20 episode only. (sighs) Of course others might hate this drama i suggest that you should personally watch it since all the characters will stole your heart without you noticing. Huhu.. The lines of Ji dwi still hunts me at night such as ' Kneel , I'am your master. " while saving Aro. Same as with Sun woo which perfectly delivered the lines 'I'am the King of Silla. "gawd i still got goosebumps thinking of it.

Ari Feb 26 2017 6:41 pm its Good... Not Great.. But why i cannot Move on from this Drama..ootokke... Maybe because i love HWARANG

Someone Feb 26 2017 2:49 am This K drama is very unpredictable...I think I was satisfied with the ending.This drama was very informative, interesting and wonderful...I don't even know why the ratings are not as it should be but, it is the best so far.Some may not have appreciated this drama but don't be affected by another's opinion. Watch and enjoy then decide...

Malditang Bugay Feb 25 2017 10:56 pm I got too invested in everything from the events to the characters and the romance which all three were great. It was really fun and cute at times. It did struggle a bit at the beginning to find it’s footing, but once it did, it ran like gang busters. What a satisfying ending.

BanryuXsooyeon Feb 25 2017 12:21 pm Not bad but not good either. I just can't get the chemistry between the leads pair. I skip everytime their scene appear ? but i really love the love story line between banryu and sooyeon >< they're bae♡ I'm curious did they married? And where's sooho? Where's the other hwarang? The ending was dissapointed.

Lee Seo Hwa Feb 25 2017 9:35 am Lucky for Ara how she got her character name Aro, Aro sounds like her real name from real life... xD

nini Feb 25 2017 9:17 am Okay so lets get one thing straight; this is an awesome drama. when this drama started, i read reviews and decided not to watch it even though my love Park Seo Joon was in it. I waited for all the episodes to be aired and started watching it. To be honest, it is not better than Scarlet Heart Ryeo, but its a great drama, and I totally recommend it.

zaho Feb 25 2017 8:27 am @TONNI I just watching this drama because I want to know how ji dwi will get his throne. I skipped all the scene between ah ro and sunwoo because it is annoying and boring at all. but the scene between ji dwi and ahro is interesting and funny too. and the plot and the story is messed too.

chinee Feb 25 2017 12:42 am i love the drama. it showed that you just dont grab every opportunity when there is.... think it many times. Sun Woo preferred no blood shed over greediness. His love for Ahh Ro is undenying and incomparable. Love his acting too.

Chillax Feb 24 2017 8:05 pm @TONNI

Dont watch it.. Waste ur time.. It started out good but middle till the end is crap

Mina Feb 24 2017 11:26 am Hyung sik as usual able to outshine the lead, even he came as 2nd. Ironically, Go Ara's Reply 1994 also gave me this kind SLS illness. In this Hwarang, with both Hyung sik and Go Ara, I feel like drowning. SLS is really strong in this one. XD/TT

TONNI Feb 24 2017 10:42 am plz , can anybody tell me,,, should i watch this or not???

kt Feb 24 2017 1:54 am I enjoy the show, not the best but good,but what happen to Minho he was not in the last scene .can anybody tell me

Jared Feb 23 2017 7:29 pm @Dee...@Miny AB... thanks for the information..Now I understand why they are "forced" by the Queen to be married to one another.. @Dee ....I was not able to watch Queen Seon Deok... not yet into Korean drama at that time.... Anyway ...... going back to Hwarang.... I am for JiDwi and Aro but after watching the ending I've accepted the fact that it's Sunwoo and Aro..At least JiDwi became the King coz I will really be disappointed if he did not become one... I agree with others that most of the Korean dramas have "poor" endings.. Even the popular "Descendants of the Sun" for me has a bad ending...For me the ending should have been the scenes at the beach where the two are seated at the ship..kissing...(my opinion only)

Goddess LeeSungKyung Feb 23 2017 4:05 pm This drama had its highs and lows like a frequency wave throughout the time. Most episodes are unbearable to watch...nothing special, too boring. You can SKIP this one.

Mandy Feb 23 2017 12:25 pm the ending was not what I have expected,all the cast did a superb job in their role. Kim Tae-Hyung he is really cute, I really dnt understand why the rating is so low. so people if u are going thro the comment before watching the drama then dnt miss out this one because y'all gonna love it.

Mandy Feb 23 2017 12:07 pm I just wanna to say that thoroughly enjoyed the drama, specially because there were so many cute guys to watch and I entered understand why the rating is so low

Kira Feb 23 2017 12:06 pm Asianwiki score of 91%? This drama is very overrated. It's not bad but definitely not good either. The plot was promising in the first few episodes but the overall story was very shallow. This drama peaked halfway maybe around episode 8, the rest are just boring episodes.

bulbul Feb 23 2017 8:37 am the cast are very interesting. i enjoy watch the actors and love them. But i had such a confused feeling and not satisfied of the ending of the drama. ji dwi character is not stronger enough for that ending. if its happy ending story, the character for each cast should be more stronger than it. its not about the acting, its about the story line. but thank you so far i enjoy watch the handsome actors.

bulbul Feb 23 2017 8:24 am The casts are very interesting, i love the actors. But too bad, the ending make me feel little confuse and not satisfied. Ji Dwi character in previous episode isnt strong enough to had that ending. it isnt about the acting, its about the story line. if its happy ending story, you should build more stronger character for each cast. i'm sorry... but good work for the actors.

evanessa Feb 23 2017 6:20 am Very good drama!!But without explanation...

jungle_fish Feb 23 2017 4:49 am I love all the casts.. but unfortunately the ending is very predictable.. I think it'd be nice if they added something like their childhood story.. ji dwi and princess sookmyung story, I think that would be sweet.. and more scenes for them to tell how they're really love and miss each other as sibling, how deep the feeling when she finally found her true oraboni

umaseu Feb 23 2017 2:35 am Really like this ending drama...

chrisna Feb 23 2017 12:59 am Loved this drama <3 im just curious what happen to soo ho.

hanasoo Feb 22 2017 11:26 pm Loved this drama. If you haven't watch it, pls do.

dollahgemuk Feb 22 2017 11:15 pm what an end

Chillax Feb 22 2017 10:21 pm Worst. Drama. Ever. Just tell the truth guys even if u are biased or whatever.. The BEST drama ever? What a joke.. In fact, This is one of the WORST drama ever not the best at all. Im a fan of all the actors here but.. The drama is... Very bad

Dee Feb 22 2017 9:02 pm @jared. King Jinheung and Princess seok myeong is sibling from the different father.. according to the history, they will get married. It was their tradition to conserve the sacred bone line. As for the queen dowager of jinheung is queen sado who is the daughter of Park Young Shil.. The king has many concubines too.. the most famous one is lady mishil (if you ever watch drama the great queen seon deok, then you must know it) ?

Jjjjj Feb 22 2017 8:38 pm This drama was a total disappointment. Not recommended.

Miny AB Feb 22 2017 7:47 pm @Jared Yes they're siblings. And the Queen want them to marriage. Back then there really had those kind of marriage, to enhance Royal Family power and not let the throne/power or whatnot into other family. That's the way they see thing tho.

I'm sorry if my explanation was not very clear, english is not my mother tounge language but I hope you get the idea ^^

Jared Feb 22 2017 7:13 pm I am confused.... I don't know if I'm mistaken. The princess and JiDwi are siblings(????) and what's this royal marriage they are talking about. Pls enlighten me.. Thank you,

richadiana kartakusuma Feb 22 2017 6:32 pm Park Hyung-Sik is Handsome Prince and King

Cartulize Charles Feb 22 2017 4:57 pm Are you kidding me? you have to be joking I refuse to listen to you.

Mimie Feb 22 2017 4:43 pm This is one of favorite kdrama's. I love the way they fight for the people. I just hate ah ro, its like she is 10 years older than the hwarangs haha! But i love Hyungsik. He is the best!

Maria Feb 22 2017 4:03 pm I have so many mixed feelings regarding this drama I don't even know where to start from. In the beginning when I heard about it I was so excited because V was going to be part of it. But then I started to like the actors too. The teasers were promising, the actors played in previous amazing works. But my excitement was faded by disappointment. Episode 19 was a total boredom, no wonder that it was NR, nothing happened at all, I almost fell asleep. Episode 20 was disappointing. There could have been a better resolution for the conflicts. A plot twist would have been awsome. The ending was plain, nothing captivating. But still, I wanted a glorious ending or something. I feel a little bad for the actors. The plot had potential but wasn't developed enough. The most dramatic moment was V's death. But I liked this drama after all.

@Miny AB I totally agree with all you said. And yeah...Why wasn't Minho in the last scene? I was like "for real"?

Molds Feb 22 2017 3:14 pm One of my dissapointment is the writer forgot to make story for yeo wol rang. When i saw him in the first episode, i found his character interesting. When he met SMJ for the first time in their room, i was kinda excpect his character development. And i thought the writer would dedicate at lease half episode worth screen time for each main hwarang for story telling their backround. But it never happend. Such a waste, the topic is great, the cast was well acted, but again, the story ( . . . )

Hadeel Hamad Feb 22 2017 11:54 am One of the worst drama ever. I am so mad at myself for wasting my time on this horrible drama.

Miny AB Feb 22 2017 11:47 am Honestly I watch this because of Minho - my ultimate bias. But this drama is a let down and I'm not going to recommend it. Tho I see alot of potential there but it did not hit home, and I can totally predict the end before the last 2 eps (litterally dropping hints everywhere that Seonu wont be the ?). I mean the idea is really great, a significant milestone of history to recall, actors have good acting skills, but the built up of the story, the development of the characters (Royal Family and Hwarangs) were underwhelm. I wish there had had more focus on Hwarang class (like the water thing) to truely show how those young-bloods matured. I almost pity Jidwi but since thoughts about nation always fill his mind, so I believe he is truely Silla King. And I hate the Queen, she sometimes talks no sense at all ?. The Princess character just abit better but not so much, like how the heck in these chaos in ep 19 she asked her brother to persued Queen to cancel the marriage because she want Seonu and that the King should at least do something about it (I can see myself slap a duct tape on her mouth atm). Aro is ok, a bright girl who is source of comfort for those need it. All and all, I think it just messed up a great topic/idea.

Lastly, tell my how come Suho (Minho) was not in the last scene???????

Zaynab Feb 22 2017 11:36 am i like the ending when soo yeon and ban ryu ended up together it was so cute and sun woo and ji dwi it was really cute they just had to kill V (BTS) to make everything worse

Zaynab Feb 22 2017 11:33 am Honestly V (BTS) shouldnt have died he should have just gotten sick and im just pissed i dont like the way everything happened but at the same time i like it

Max Feb 22 2017 11:25 am Worst sageuk I've watched. Wouldn't recommend 4/10

maiko Feb 22 2017 11:14 am all that potential and hype have just been flushed down the drain.i hope who ever was involved in the direction and script will do justice to the characters the next time they are given a new project.....if investors will ever trust them again enough to bank their cash at them

liare Feb 22 2017 11:11 am worst drama ever literally but not the fault of the cast,nothing more to say and am out

zaza Feb 22 2017 11:03 am @luccian yes I think the first 6 episode is okey to watch. but after that they focus on the love triangle. never show jidwi's character development. jidwi said he want to become stronger in Hwarang but nothing happen. it is sunwoo who got glory from hwarang and jidwi character is so hopeless and pathetic until the end of episode when he talk to sunwoo to strike him. writer suppose make hwarang 2 and make jidwi become main lead and show how great king he is.

Anese Feb 22 2017 9:38 am The story was soooo boring, its a shame and a waste because they have a list of good cast. I really hate the main actress, her acting and face expression were so poor, I hate the queen too, every scene of her was sickening until the last episode. I kind of like her at the last episose. I thought this drama focus on brotherhood but 95% of the time, it focus on romance much to my disappointment. So lame!

This drama does not worth your time. It does not deserve even a star. Other historical stories are much better.

Miaca Feb 22 2017 9:15 am Yeah i love the cast, the story has some potentials, but it develops and ended very commonly..

Dachy Shawol Feb 22 2017 9:10 am Great drama! One of the best drama ever! At first I wanted to watch it only because of SHINee Minho but in the end I loved it for great plot and fantastic music! It has amazing ending, happy ending, but my question is WHERE IS MINHO ON THE LAST SCENE, why isn't he there, he should be with them. Everything else was perfect! Big ''A'' for this drama! :D

Lala Feb 22 2017 8:30 am The story just so so, but i love the cast. Esp park seo joon,park hyung sik minho dan v they are so great. But i think the writer didn't write the development of jidwi character really well. I really want to see that jidwi is really a great king but the writer didnt show it.

Bless Feb 22 2017 6:25 am Congratulations to all the part of hwarang...for the successful of the drama...one of the best drama....especially to my idol..go ara...best actress ever..i enjoyed wacthing from the episode 1 untill the end....thank you for giving us such a great drama...looking forward for upcoming drama again...

alexander mark Feb 22 2017 6:23 am omg this drama is a flop since its ending only 32 people have posted their goodbye comments here and 50% are dissapoined while the other 50% are the true believer.plus it dint trend on twitter top 15 as it ended..sad..bye

luccian Feb 22 2017 6:04 am WHAttttttttttttttttttttttttttt??!guys are we watching the same series ?coming of age? brotherhood?what coming of age was shown in this series?only like 35% of brotherhood was shown .it focused on a love triangle that most people have already forgotten since yesterday(soo wo n aro will never win best couple in any award/ country).writers pls start to focus on a good script,you had the money and the talented cast bust still you failed to deliver ..only the first 6 episode were something.

clarasita Feb 22 2017 5:56 am not worth your time.your expectation wont be reached and you will leave unsatisfied like me.

anolld Feb 22 2017 5:54 am 1.people who are praising the writer and saying best drama ever are either blind or in self denial or simply biased .i think they havent watched true masterpieces like Ju Mong,Queen Seudok,Empress Ki(in this drama hwarang were epic),Dong Yi,Journey To The Palace,Dil Dong,Seudok Scandal(in this drama hwarang were historical interm of intellience n brotherhoo) n etc 2 .i wish the cast a better future, they deserved better and if they make season 2 i think the writer n director hv learnt their lesson n will take a different approach

Saba Feb 22 2017 5:54 am There are 2 types of girls, Sun Woo lovers and Ji Dwi lovers. For me Sun Woo is really really cool person and Ji Dwi is charming af.

The story of Hwarang is just so so but it's worth watching because of those beautiful man especially Sun Woo and Ji Dwi. Hahaha. And yes!!!!! Happy Ending :)

akkyilia Feb 22 2017 5:48 am dissapointed they should have focused more on bromance btn min ho and ban ryu,the princess should have been present from episode 2 ,so woo should hv helped the king take the throne with other hwarang from epi 11 and they shldnt have been enemies,ah ro should have been stronger and they should have focus on the coming to age and brotherhood story than romance.peace

zali23 Feb 22 2017 5:44 am worst story ever,poor character development.they wasted a lot of talent and didnt put much effort in giving us an epic story they based its success on star power............but lesson learnt today is that star power isnt everything you need creativity and not all romances work

Wardiana Feb 22 2017 5:13 am I love the drama.... It's better than Love in the moonlight yaw.. * Way better.....

ann Feb 22 2017 2:39 am i love hwarang series #amfan #seojun#goara#hyungsik nowwwwlovethem hwaranng best memory for me thank all to good job

Rose Feb 22 2017 2:15 am Absolutely loved it! Favorite drama!

Rian Feb 22 2017 12:31 am Daebak!!! A good story on friendship, love, family and patriotism! Kudos to all the cast and staff! A must see movie!!

Hermine Feb 22 2017 12:08 am First of all I didn't expect a kingdom of the wind performance; However, all of the actors were amusing and addictive. The truth is that I want more. 20 episodes are not enough to develop a better understanding of the characters. I blame that on the producers, writers and the station. Queen of Seondeok had 62 episodes for goddess sake and in my opinion, 20 episodes too many....... KBS2 should have taken those last 20 episodes and added them to Hwarang. Anyway, great job to all of you guys. This is coming from an American viewer. Fighting!!!!

Hwarang Feb 21 2017 11:28 pm OMG this drama got me deep, honestly i'm not a very picky drama watcher I just watch whatever I find entertaining. Honestly I was quite disappointed that V died (consider that fact that I was here for him and Hyun Sik) and it was a very heart breaking scene but I still finished and it is worth watching.

Princess Sookmyung is bae Feb 21 2017 10:43 pm What happen to the princess??? I hope that Suho and the princess get to know each other and fall in love haha

Mylene Feb 21 2017 9:14 pm I like that this is a happy ending. But i am not satisfied with how the ending.. I just feel like the the story was rushed at the last 3 episodes. Some parts are draggy. I love the chemistry between sun woo and ahro. Their romance kept me going with the show. I would like to recommend this drama to those who are sucker to romantic romance. Each character's performance is great. Its just that the storyline is just so so

Trisha Claire Rodriguez Feb 21 2017 9:06 pm I watch this kdrama because of choi minho but i was sad because he is not in the last scene =(

Ozzie Santagada Feb 21 2017 8:58 pm The first episodes were interesting: something new. But then little by little the story gets boring you. Min Ho and Park Seo Joon are the best. Go Ara was pathetic. Her acting was bad, her face not making you like the story. Kim Ji Soo was a poor queen, repeating herself to tire you. The script was bad. Long monologues and a lot of fuss. Try to get a glimpse of Min Ho or Park Seo Joon in other movies.

Khai Feb 21 2017 8:53 pm Hwarang is one of the best series i've seen ( picky kdrama watcher here ) this film showcase different aspects of love to mankind. Family, friends and country men. Hwarang made put emotions in different level. ??. To top it all this film well deserved an appreciation!! Kudos Hwarang team!! ❤

guiltypleasure Feb 21 2017 7:29 pm Like or dislike , it's common and it's the right of each person say it. But, telling this is the best drama ever and the writer is a genius one ??? it's too bluffing !!! And a lie !!! Ah, maybe you just a new comer who only watch this drama, ok, it's understandable. But, I'm telling you, there are other countless korean drama thats written better with more brainy writer and producer.

Sylvie Feb 21 2017 4:50 pm Beautiful!!! Hwarang, truly was one of the BEST dramas ever! It made me laugh and cry so many times and I just enjoyed it to the fullest!!! Thank you so much for such a beautiful drama with amazing cast!!! <3

A Feb 21 2017 4:47 pm Expecting more from this drama, love their acting but the story is too predictable. No excitement at all..

lily Feb 21 2017 4:45 pm @Cartulize Charles the faceless king :D

Geo Feb 21 2017 2:24 pm Sun Woo Rang the best king ♡

Majesty Kayth Feb 21 2017 2:20 pm HWARANG The END. I don't know how will I be able to move on from this drama! This is the best historical Korean Drama I have seen in my entire life! The face off of the FACELESS KING and the FAKE KING was epic! The moment King Jinheung dropped his sword in front of Sun Woo, I already predicted that he will remain as the one true king of Silla through the help of course of Hwarang! The writers of this story are all genius! I love how they transform the image of the powerful, cold-hearted queen into a weak warm mother! Actually I was a bit confuse and disappointed last night because there are still many unresolved issues in the story before the final episode! But tadaaa! They did it! -Ban Ryu's father-son issue was resolved, thanks to his beautiful love Soo Yeon who gave him the strength to make better choices. -Master Ahn Ji's hatred to the queen who was actually his first love. -Princess Sook Myung's unrequited love. ANyway, I really don't know how to say this but I will definitely watch this drama again!!! Ooops! Before I forgot, let me thank the real heroes of this drama--Master We Hwa, Pi Joo Ki and Pa Oh!!! These three not so young actors really rock the Hwarang House!!! They are all awesome and cool! Ya! I'll just re write my opinion regarding this drama. I am so overwhelmed right now and I have to sleep too! Good night fellow Hwarang fans!

Sadako Feb 21 2017 10:59 am I love all the cast but sometimes i didn't really like ahro's acting..i like ara acting in other drama but this one i don't think this role fit her. and the story from middle till the end really boring. I'm waiting and expecting more. And the triangle love story is uhm.. i love banryu and soyeon more (and hansung-yeowool kkk) . The story line is too slow that make me boring watching it. Sorry my english

flumpool Feb 21 2017 10:22 am Im not a hater or what, but to be honest i really am disappointed with this drama.. I really liked the drama from the start but in the middle the story went downhill and sucked till the end .. I love all the casts and plot, but.. . . .. I just disappointed with the drama

Cartulize Charles Feb 21 2017 10:07 am Bon- He probably doesn't, he would have to have an interest in a different girl by at least episode 15 but he kept going with Ah Ro, he would have to find a girl, bond, fall in love and ask her to marry him in two episodes... kind of impossible.

Bon Feb 21 2017 9:58 am Not gonna watch it lol. Just want to know one thing if ji dwi ends up with a girlfriend or not at all. I'll just wait for you guys' comment.

RyuYeon Feb 21 2017 8:56 am Love the final episode. Thanks a lot for the production team and all the cast for the beautiful drama.

KingJinHeung Feb 21 2017 8:55 am Sorry Seon Woo bias but... JinHeung pyeha man-se...

Nuponx Feb 21 2017 8:51 am OMG!! I love the ending of this drama. No regret! :)

Flop Feb 21 2017 8:25 am so dissapointed!! this is should be the best drama but the writer messed this one! boring drama!

NN Feb 21 2017 8:17 am i know... KBS always give us Happy Ending...Yeayyyyyy......

kukuruyuk Feb 21 2017 7:33 am The best annoying drama, Sunwoo want to be king not because he wanted to protect the people but only wanted to protect a ro, but as though he wanted to be king because of the suffering people we can see in the episode yesterday when people were killed with the sword he even does not move forward and why the time aro wanted to kill him a new forward and claimed to be king this drama is very does not make sense

herfi Feb 21 2017 7:08 am @sam, yeah !!! So true !!

lalaine Feb 21 2017 4:55 am just an observation after reading all the comments here i'll just make it short for some who does not like reading long comments lols

Sunwoo bias>> go be a writer and write your own story which give the second lead spot light.the title should have been sam mekjong king of silla if all of want the spotlight to be on the second lead coz you are all blind fangirls.

sammekjong bias>> the writer messed the story up..the story revolved around the main lead and his love story the rest are just decorations..the title of the story should have been the great hwarang warrior and his love story.

sam Feb 21 2017 4:31 am @winterose if u are soo right n sarcastic n the rest of us are just haters why does 93% of the country doesn't watch this series? n why even real Korean critics and online sites are slamming this drama for poor story,direction n DVP.stop being a fan girl n check ur facts hommie

Candy Feb 21 2017 4:02 am i love HWARANG... I love Sun Woo and Ahro.. Everytime they on the screen.. My heart fluttering ??? i dont know why people always say that they dont have chemistry... When i feel they have Chemistry.. Ahro?SunWoo and Ahro?JiDwi.... If they make season 2...i dont want change the actors or actress maybe just change the writer-nim ?

izza Feb 21 2017 2:43 am there is no fake king because they both have a royal blood and either of them can become a king... but let us see the ending....

KLover Feb 21 2017 2:16 am A King who doesn't think on impulse. That's my kind of King -- Ji Dwi. Manse manse man~manse PYEHA.

Ajay Feb 21 2017 1:34 am Love this drama

Ajay Feb 21 2017 1:32 am Love Hearing, loved every episode and I can't wait to see what happens in the end, I love the fake king as well, and I love all the characters in this drama. What's not to like with a good looking cast.

Gene Feb 21 2017 1:09 am I am so amazed with the comments.. Love to read them all but others are too long..I just wonder why with this so many comments the ratings' low compare to Chief Kim.. Make your numbers count in the ratings coz it's falling hard......... Love JiDwi....

chatterbox Feb 21 2017 12:41 am i prefer the fake king to be the king...quality of a leader.

Mimi Feb 20 2017 11:48 pm I love hwarang... I'm so excited to watch episode 19 and 20... Love Ah ro and Sun woo...

Honey Feb 20 2017 10:14 pm Hwarang is as good as scarlet heart. I'm always looking forward for the next episode. I just wish it will continue airing and not end at 20. And I hope the last episode will be better ending than scarlet heart! To all those critiques people, if you have nothing better or positive to comment then don't comment at all!!

Sam Feb 20 2017 7:39 pm @Boo Yeah right. Nothing can beat my Scarlet Heart yet. Still no. 1

Sam Feb 20 2017 7:35 pm Rooting for Ji Dwi to be the King. That's all, period.

Mimie Feb 20 2017 12:04 pm If sun woo will become a king, ill be surely disappointed to the writer!!!

HJ lee Feb 20 2017 5:18 am Ji dwi steal the show

kemmiedo Feb 19 2017 9:34 pm i do love this DRAMA can't wait for the next episode huhuhu T.T

GOARA

Nani Feb 19 2017 12:04 pm The only good thing with hwarang is that Park Hyung Sik's popularity has skyrocketed through the roof lol

winterose Feb 19 2017 8:44 am @zawang unfortunately, this drama title is Hwarang with SunWoo/Park SeoJun as a lead.

If you guys prefer drama with title 'sam maek jong the great king' just go and do something, make petition for example. Maybe KBS will hear you and make drama according to your demand (Seriously, I am sure they will if you scream loud enough).

Here, I will compile list of most viewer's complain and what this new fan-made drama should be:

1) Female lead: she shouldn't EVER cry or frown. They should cast a better or prettier actress. She should be strong, female badass warrior perhaps. 2) Historical accurate: this new drama should historically accurate to a minute details. The writer shouldn't add some FICTIONAL characters or events. While we at it, don't forget SMJ's has many sister-wives don't dare to omit them and he should be a married man now, being 20 years old and a king beside. It will be better to say that this drama is a DOCUMENTARY and remove that disclaimer that said otherwise. 3) Screen time: each episode should give more screen time to SECOND lead whoever he is because it's logical to give second lead more spotlight. This second lead better be a REAL historical figure too otherwise it will be disrespectful.

I guess many of you will satisfied with this new drama. Thanks to me later.

Hmm Feb 19 2017 7:05 am After watching eps till now, can only say this had super potential to grow as big as 6 flying dragons/ empress ki if only had they focused on plot seriousness a bit more,reduce cheesy frames and did not apply modern bg score. This was flattening the edge the story had. The best part is that the characters are well portrayed thanks to the artists. Neverthless, still a nice drama.

Lovely Feb 19 2017 6:01 am I really dont watch this drama when they start. But when i saw the preview. I start to watch it and i really love it. I did not know that they sing also thier song. I love PHS and PSJ Voice. So from now on i will follow them. I love this drama so much. I hope they will made it again like this hwarang. I like them all.

Beautiful_unni Feb 19 2017 2:25 am Anyone aside from me who"s more interested in Ban Ryu-Soo-Yeon love story? <3

YYYY Feb 18 2017 4:05 pm Seriously, this is great drama. Honestly one thing I think that makea thi one awful sometimes is Ah Ro's character. Go Ara is a good actress but everything her character does is cry and make troubles. Seriously?! Not all female leads are like that.Really looking forward to less of her cryig sessions and all.

Boo Feb 18 2017 9:31 am Dropped. I got to the 4th episode before I realized this show was hopeless. For those who said this was better than moon lovers, seriously are you blind?!

JiDwi's Wife Feb 18 2017 5:28 am This is one of the best kdramas i've ever watched. I've been going crazy throughout all the episodes and I can't get over the fact that it'll end at episode20. I am freakin out just wondering how it'll end. It has become really obvious that sun woo might become the real king,I'm fine with it but I cannot accept it if it'll be a sad ending for Ji Dwi, it'll be really unfair for him. I just hope both sunwoo and Ji Dwi will have a happy ending like they will become best friends or somethin and it'd be awesome if Sun woo and ah ro will realize that they're just suitable to each other as brothers and sisters but sunwoo will be the king and Ji Dwi will give up the throne for Ah ro, who will realize that she loves Ji dwi more, and he'll live happily with her. But oh well, it would be a miracle if this s how it'll end. I just wish it'll be an awesome ending for every characters.

TeamHyungsik here! Ji Dwi is♥♥♥

vida Feb 18 2017 3:26 am this drama is awsome if you don't undrastand it, don't leave some absurd comments...

Bless Feb 18 2017 1:48 am @nat.....you are not good in judging...you dont even understand the drama...you dont even appreciate the drama...your a writer???? I guess not....the writer was very talented because he got all the attention of the viewers...the drama was become famous beacuse of the people who want to see if its good or not...its became trending internationally...so dont comment here...your annoying...

Nat Feb 17 2017 11:18 pm There is no art in this drama. This is a travesty of a show. From the cheap production, to its loose ends, to continuity errors, to the bland storytelling with oh so very formulaic and repetitive chain of events. Each episode feel the same than the last because in its core, it was the same. It got boring, it got predictable and that's something that's purely the writer's fault. There's nothing to blame on the actors, they tried to make do with the poor material they were given and that's a testament of their talent. But that's all this drama has, its talented actors and a few memorable moments. Everything else is forgettable.

mold Feb 17 2017 6:26 pm @Pls stop--> obviously you are the one who need to produce your own drama to know that when you make something, you need both (honest, objective) negative and positive feedback to make better production in the future.

Pls stop Feb 17 2017 5:52 pm I am an army. I cried when taehyung died. But the drama is still good, if you were watching for v and absolutely hate it now, we don't really care just leave. And for all the people commenting on the story line: become a script writer and stop watching if it's so terrible. I personally enjoy the drama because it's simple, fun, and you don't get a history lesson you don't really need. The cast and all of the crew members worked hard and spent hours so you ungrateful fan girls could watch something nice, if you don't like it (as I had said before) go produce your own drama so you can see how absurdly difficult it is to do so. (plus sunwoo and aro are good, if she were to accept ji dwi the drama would essentially be over since there would no longer be as much problems to their love when he became king, it's thus called a "drama" for a reason)

mold Feb 17 2017 4:48 pm seriously this drama has everything needed to be a good (even great drama), but turned out weird. Great Queen Seon Deok potrayed Hwarang better even in a little amount of time. you can feel the "elite group and knights" thingy there. This drama just feels like school series only with silla backround and little portion of game of throne. Hwarang has a lot of potential story, every character of main hwarang also have their own charm and potential story to develop. If only the writer focus more to hwarang rather than aro-mumyeong ....

zawang Feb 17 2017 2:49 pm @winterose yes this drama is the great one in the year if they make the title 'sam maek jong the great king'! focus on king jinheung, how he want to change the silla for his subject. the best comment ever from you! I pity the actor, they do great job but the plot of story messed it all. the ranking of hwarang also low

winterose Feb 17 2017 8:24 am @Hapsari What Seojun said about his hair is in joking manner and he humbly imply that he not handsome in those hair styles which I strongly disagree and this have nothing to do with whether he like or dislike his role here(I wonder why this even related??)

What I observe here is mostly viewers just cannot accept that character who not cool enough, perfect enough, rich enough or in other word just a simple peasant (so not swoon worthy in the beginning of the drama) can evolve to be great and charismatic leader while they already in love/stanning other character which is swoon worthy(handsome, rich, cool, etc). Or simply they are so blinded with their love with this certain character so that they can't see, don't want to see, refuse to see, willfully overlook other characters even reduced to hate/bash these characters if they going in the way of their stan. Just blindly hating without trying to see both side of a coin if characters clash with each others.

While I love SunWoo the most here I still like others, sympathize, pity and try to understand them, even the villains have compelling trait, have certain reasoning why they do what they did which make the story interesting. But of course these characters are not perfect (made to be so), they are flawed like most people which is good. So they can learn and be better as the story goes. They also have distinct personality which make this drama good.

And why SunWoo got a lot of screen time?he is the main lead. Duh! Simple, right? People who clever enough to read a sentence should know this, it is up there in the cast list.

guiltypleasure Feb 17 2017 2:57 am @sonjo , you wrote what I exactly I feel. "SUNWOO RULES" so true .

winterose Feb 17 2017 1:35 am summary of the comments here: This drama is soooo annoying. It could be great drama, you know?if only the writter smart enough and focus the story to how great and benevolent JiDwi is (beside he is so handsome, lonely, etc). The last 10 episode should be about how great ruler he is and how peasants love him. Even better if they change the title to "SamMaekJong the great king" and they should follow history and remove the disclaimer at the beginning of each episodes that said "characters and events arent real" or much better if they just make documentary drama. Furthermore, every characters should understand how lonely he is, how brave he is, how pitiful he is and should worship him since he is just, brave, great leader and all. And Aro, that ungrateful girl should beg JiDwi to love her but of course JiDwi will reject her because she is so annoying and frown a lot. Lastly dont forget SunWoo, that stupid character, how dare he angry, yell, challenge him and make him think to be better/stronger person/king since JiDwi already perfect no need character growth, history said so (really they should make documentary instead).SunWoo as loyal subject should be thankful that the queen use him as shield for the king. He should be honoured. He should understand why the queen threaten and try to kill his family (Also that Wonhwa girl, his mom and his bestfriend, MakMoon, they deserve to die). SunWoo should just do nothing and be grateful to the queen. He should beg the queen to put arrow to his heart again next episode. But how dare him and his fathers try to fight back?they really unreasonable. If only the story goes like what WE (fangirls) want, we are 200% sure this drama will be the best drama of 2017. We, fans, feel annoyed and bored but of course will continue to watch and give constructive feedbacks... since we are clever and great story teller with so much experience in criticism. Thank you!

niko Feb 17 2017 12:19 am @lyraphoenix30 I luv ur comment.hwarang is always the best in my heart.

Hapsari Feb 16 2017 9:06 pm Bruh ! What a silly periodic drama!! For the fans of Sun Woo (sun woo bias), please check pre drama interview with hwarang, even park seo joon doesn't like his style here, it's possible he also doesn't like his role. The actress as the queen also underestimate this drama . She finds it silly too. At first I wonder why, but now I know and wouldn't blame them!

TaehyungOppa Feb 16 2017 11:20 am This was this worst show I have ever seen. I watched 18 hours of this show for what my bias to be killed? I started watching it because of him, now I don't even care how the show ends. :-( Signed a sad A.R.M.Y

way0leto Feb 16 2017 5:45 am I cried so much at episode 18. Damn.

lyraphoenix30 Feb 16 2017 4:40 am I love the character of Moo-myung/Dog-Bird and I really wish he’ll be the King sitting on the throne. He had suffered a lot and I hate Queen Mother Jiso for killing his mother, it would have been a sweet revenge. He grows up nameless without his family but still manage to survive and endure the hardship in life. But I think it’s not his thing, my guess is he will not be happy either. He was happy living a worry free life before when he was with his buddy, the brother of Ah-ro. And he did mentioned that Ah-ro now is his everything. He only live because of her and live for her. He’ll die if she’ll die. That’s all he wants, to protect her. He doesn’t have any greed for power.

Anyway, that was just my wish but in reality and to make fans of JiDwi happy. I can positively say that JiDwi or King Jinheung will sit on the throne and it will not be taken away from him, it's already in Wiki :D Check it out. Wiki states, under popular culture portion that “Park Hyung-sik portrayed King Jinheung in Hwarang (TV series)”. Also there’s a line there that caught my eye mentioning that “One of his first acts as true king of Silla was to appoint a man named Kim Isabu as Head of Military Affairs, which occurred in 541”.

If you’ll go to Hwarang: The Poet Warrior Youth Wiki page, you will see on the Main Cast portion that states “Park Seo-joon as Moo-myung (Gae-Sae)/ Kim Sun-woo / Taedong (Kim Isabu)”. Park Seo-joon will be known later in the last 2 episodes as Kim Isabu. In history, he is a general and politician of Silla during the 6th century. He was also known as Taejong. He was the 4th generation descendant of King Naemul and best remembered today for his role in subjugating the island nation of Usan-guk.

My only last wish is for Kim Isabu and Kim Ah-ro to have a happy ending together because I can’t find her anywhere in history. So that’s it guys, both male leads ends up being true friends and true hwarangs.

Five commandments of a Hwarang: 1. Loyalty to one's lord 2. Love and respect your parents 3. Trust among friends 4. Never retreat in battle 5. Never take a life without a just cause

So let’s stop fighting! Okay? Instead, let’s just enjoy the ride, 2 more episodes left :D

KingJinheung Feb 16 2017 2:16 am I still think JiDwi is the true king. He is Jinheung, the 24th king of Silla and that history will never change. I think some people misunderstand some things about the Queen Jiso. She hides Sammaekjong because he was too young to be king and to protect him from people like Park Young Shil, who wants to control power and exploit. That was the reason according to history and based on the beginning of the drama. However, later on it is KIND OF revealed that the queen can't give up her power as a regent so she's not giving up the throne. She does care about her son tho. There was a scene where she shouts to her guard with a bit of worry that "sammaekjong he's just a kid. what can he do if he sits on the throne now!?" Maybe the queen is just paranoid, thinking that her son is still a kid when he's actually not anymore. idk. she's quite complicated. BUT it has nothing to do with hiding JiDwi because he is not the true king. From ep.18 the queen JUST learn that Sunwoo might be somewhat of a sacred bone too. She DIDN'T KNOW THIS BEFORE, so it really not a reason why she hides her son. I talk this out not because I am overly confident that JiDwi will become king but I talk this out logically from how the drama goes. Plus, how master WiHwa said to that polio guy that he won't support another person who is even better that Jinheung to be king. That kinda proves that making SunWoo king would be kind of a revolution/treason as Jinheung was made king by the previous king. Plus, Hwarang made everyone comes together regardless of their backgrounds (this was stated by WiHwa at the beginning episodes) so they suppose to be friends not rival. So that's why I said it is not a matter of SunWoo will be king but it is a matter of how SunWoo and JiDwi will clear up their problems. JiDwi never wants to be rival with Sunwoo surely but SunWoo needs to forgive JiDwi for his past as useless king and that now he has become a better version. This is purely MY OPINION (NOT A SPOILER) anyone can disagree.

RyuYeon Feb 15 2017 6:14 pm I have a big wish that queen ji so and park dong shil just died terribly in the end of the drama. . They both had killed many innocent people. No matter who become the king..hope their hwarang friendship will remain the intact like the principal said don't lost your friend. Overall this drama is enticing except the scene between sun woo and ah ro after they declare their love.. its feel awkward to see their act like that. If only hansung didn't die. I hope there will have hwarang 2.

Sam Feb 15 2017 6:01 pm Halt..! Stop it already. Just give the throne to my Ji Dwi, period.

Wandiana Feb 15 2017 11:30 am I do not care anymore who will be king of Silla, I just hope that the end of the drama everyone happy, especially ji dwi

popcorn and coke Feb 15 2017 11:09 am This drama is getting dumber and dumber as the time goes by. If it was not pre-produced maybe perhaps the drama would be far better off because they will be able to adjust or change just like what happened in My Shy Boss. Don't get me wrong, this drama has been one of my favorites but recently it just makes me so sad and frustrated. The only reason why I keep on watching is because I have to see to the end what will happen to everyone. I have been enduring since episode 1 but when it hit episode 15, I could no longer suppress my disappointment and just fast-forward everything i watch especially when Ah-ro is with Sun Woo. No, i'm not nitpicking who should be with the girl because in the first place I don't care who should end up with because the only thing I cared about was the potential of the drama to be a hit but I don't think I can see the light of it anymore. The flame had been blown away. Honest speaking, I'am even in considering of dropping this drama to focus on other better dramas like My Shy Boss, Saimdang's Light diary, Rebel, Chief Kim (fyi Nam is my favorite actor of all), Tomorrow With YOu and The Sound of Your Heart..

I'm so sad that I had to write this but I had to warn people who had hopes. If they were looking for a brilliant acting from the actors, yes they definitely did their jobs well but they story is just off and very wrong. The writer did her best but it was not enough.

tyn Feb 15 2017 11:02 am taehyung make my tears drop . congratulation to all who involved , im proud of you guys , especially hyungsik . 사랑해요♡

flumpool Feb 15 2017 10:48 am @shin seon hyun u dont get why the rating is going down? Just see how many bad comments this drama received.. And in my opinion, this drama diddnt even deserve that rating... It shud be an NR all the way till the end. Worst drama ever i had watched. Too mich disappointment

shin seon hyun Feb 15 2017 9:43 am i love this drama so much...i can't get it why the rating is going down..however,hwarang is the best...

KwonFire Feb 15 2017 8:53 am [SPOILER]

writer nim y u must killed my precious han sung:"""(((( I cant stop crying during hansung scene OMG it really made me cry a lot:""" And in the end ah ro stuck by arrow and what the mean of the preview of eps 19? Ah ro died? plssss nooooo dont killed ah ro after han sung plsss just kill queen jisoo i hate her:(( hope ah ro will recover like how fast sun woo's wound recovered:(

and i really love how ji dwi show up as a king! ji dwi for the king of silla! just let sunwoo and ah ro happy, and ji dwi as the jinheung please

Molds Feb 15 2017 8:29 am Writer-nim is trying to change history or trying to make people doubt the history. Or maybe her research wasn't complete, lead her to write such a story. I won't say it worst, but it's really not a good drama especially if you're saeguk lover.

Sonjo Feb 15 2017 8:21 am So I'm not the only one who felt like a big BOO after this episode. I was ready and excited to watch this drama, but never ever seen such heavily one-sided drama in favor of the lead character. It's not even done subtly. Maybe because everything needs to be squeezed into 20 episodes. Whether Jidwi becomes king or Sunwoo doesn't matter anymore. This drama screams "SUNWOO RULES" -__- it is not good storytelling at all. I thought I will like all kdrama but this is the first and so far absolute worst storytelling. Everything and everyone is there to accessorize Sunwoo and make him look great. Some are just not logical anymore (like amateur sword fighter beating experienced warrior prince of baekje? Cos of a heart issue/purpose?? Totally not believable, and truly bad fiction!). I will make sure now to know who the writers are so I can avoid watching their shows next time. No, it's not the actors fault or what. But it's just poor storyline, storytelling and execution. :( No wonder it's not doing well at the ratings. But Park Hyungsik has got a new fan in me now (amidst the poor storyline and underratimg of his character).

boo Feb 15 2017 7:55 am well if you're saying that the king would be Ji Dwi because it's like that in the history when this drama clearly said in every beginning that all of the characters and EVENTS are fiction

herfi Feb 15 2017 7:41 am Only one word to describe this drama : "BOOOOOOO...!!!!!"

markouse Feb 15 2017 7:13 am I hateeeeee this drama.disappointment is an understatement.at least I still HV bar nyu n so ho

alice Feb 15 2017 7:11 am worst drama ever may its final rating be 4 if not 3 and am out

VazGaming Feb 15 2017 4:01 am i love this dramaaaaaaaaa <3

Z Feb 14 2017 7:56 pm @JJHFan Thanks a lot for the explanation. I guess Wonhwa is like Amazon women warriors then.

sylvia Feb 14 2017 5:37 pm This drama is honestly THE BEST I have ever watched!!! I have watched so many, including most of the recent ones and honestly, I do not know why some people are saying that this drama has its good and bad "days"... Absolutely loved the cast and the roles were assigned perfectly!

THANK YOOOU! <3

Welp Feb 14 2017 3:35 pm The drama has it's good and bad moments, and unfortunately to say, those moments are quite equal. The drama doesn't focus on the lives of Hwarang themselves and the plot barely progresses. However, I do enjoy the cast. Ah ro's character is annoying though, she cries in nearly every episode.. 'sigh' I'd really like to see her become bad ass and to finally choose who she wants. Because this love triangle is tiring as hell. Ji Dwi, and Ah ro in my opinion have no chemistry at all, all he does is try to force Ah ro into living him. When that's not even what love is about. Then, she ends up werided out and goes looking for dog-bird. Boo, repeat. Dog-bird, I personally find is a great character, he was very cagedin the beginning an he progressively opened up because of Ah ro, their feelings can be shown as well and him an Ah ro have such powerful chemistry together. #DogBirdForTheWin

Hwarangspoiler Feb 14 2017 2:56 pm Sunwoo is king. The real king. He has the same fainting spells as the princess. Genetics. The real Brother and Sister kissed. Now, that's worse than aro kissing fake Brother sunwoo right?

tbh Feb 14 2017 11:13 am Don't blame me cause I can't engage with park seo joon's role here. He looks so sleepy and tired in this drama. Sun woo should look more powerful, tough, smart and charismatic if the writer have idea make him a king at the end. So he can steal my heart and uncomparable with adorable ji dwi. I have emphaty towards ji dwi and I feel sun woo is very annoying thief.

Jurain Feb 14 2017 10:57 am Hurm. I hope ji dwi will endure and protect the trone..because of this drama i read king jinheung history..and what i read. .king jinheug not the king son..but the king nephew..he give to jinheung before him die..

Maru Feb 14 2017 10:27 am Sam Maek Jong is the real king. He is King Jinheung. It will not make sense if Sun Woo becomes the king all of a sudden.

Sam Maek Jong is fighting for his crown. His mother may be cruel, but it is to secure the line for his son (maybe overly protective) and I know he will become the king because he will fight for it and he will never surrender it, even to his mother.

It doesn't mean that Sun Woo is the lead, he will automatically become the king. Maybe he'll support Sam Maek Jong in the end as his king and as his friend, but I don't see him snatching the crown from him because if Sun Woo becomes the king, it only means one thing, Sam Maek Jong will die... and i don't think he will.

hwarang Feb 14 2017 9:50 am omfg, give me a mf jidwi plz. i'll love him forever. :')

Labradorlady Feb 14 2017 9:40 am Why are the ratings going down? Perhaps because 1. The audience's expectations for the show were slightly different. 2. The plot has not improved 3. The acting of some of the cast are rather one dimensional. I think by focusing too much on the young and popular idol stars, this has weakened the show's concept.

Hwahwahwarang Feb 14 2017 9:13 am Preview of episode 18 shows Seonu shocked to hear something,maybe that man walking with the stick is Seonu's father and seonu may actually be the king and he gets to know the truth...LOL im just saying..well who knows ...can't wait for the next episode !

Nikki Feb 14 2017 9:09 am This is what i think...emm not sure though jidwi and seonu may actually be related (cousins maybe) so it was seonu's fate to get the throne(he is good at decision making) but still he may actually give up the throne i mean come on It is unfair that jidwi is losing everything..he deserves something!

KwonFire Feb 14 2017 8:28 am after watching new episode, i always visit this site to see people's comments here. Still many people write the bad comments here. But i still enjoy the movie and im still waiting for ji dwi to take the crown from his egois mother jisoo. Ill wait for the fall of queen jisoo haha.

Btw its fine for me when the title is hwarang but there is the love story between aro sunwoo and ji dwi, since this is a romance drama. hwarang is very cool tho. and yes im still curious about that wonhwa thing, what is the real meaning of wonhwa?

JJHfan Feb 14 2017 8:23 am @z wonhwa is like nun warriors or leaders of the kingdom.. They r born to fight n die.. They abandon their family n live for kingdom in ancient history.. Ah ro is being made wonhwa.. I don't know y ppl r so dissapointed with sun woo.. We knew that sun woo is the lead n he is bought to be pampered.. I always shipped sunro couple.. I could feel their love.. While ji dwi is weak as king as a lover to make quick decisions to save his kingdom or love..while sun woo is readily ready to give his life for ro n when time comes for his kingdom too.. So I want sun woo to be d king

Liaa Feb 14 2017 8:20 am Whats a wonhwa???!?!?!?

Z Feb 14 2017 6:37 am can anybody explain to me what the heck is WONHWA? (not sure if the spelling is right though) ... why do all wonhwa die?? why everybody is scared that their daughters become a wonhwa?? it's puzzling coz I am not korean, so I'm trying to understand the history here

KingJinheung Feb 14 2017 3:40 am For people who are sad or complaining about how Sun Woo is becoming king... lol no. King Jinheung is the king. JiDwi is the king. He is and he has always been ever since the beginning. It was shown in the first episode JiDwi wearing king's clothes so he is the king. It is the matter of how and when Sun Woo will forgive and accept his friend as the king because he holds so much grudge against JiDwi. But i believe at the end Sun Woo will support the king because they are friends no matter what. They are already friends through living in Hwarang and I believe Sun Woo doesn't want to lose another of his friend so he won't go after the throne.

boyanx Feb 14 2017 3:17 am i came for taehyung... but the story between banryu, sooho and sooyun are more interesting than the main lead. i had a high expectation for this drama as a whole story. i kind of have a feeling that hwarang will become like moon lovers. not really popular in korea but popular enough outside korea.

Sam Feb 14 2017 3:09 am The title is supposed to be Hwarang. But why do I see love story? Can u please change the title to A.) AR and her fake orabeoni B.) AR is in love with her orabeoni C.) AR and the fake King D.) All of the above

KZ Feb 14 2017 2:57 am One question haunts me... "Just what in the world happened to the writer?"

Fudge Feb 14 2017 2:53 am Not happy with how it's turning out and still have awkward feelings about the whole "brother/sister" relationship. But I'll definitely still keep watching cause Taehyung is amazing in this drama. <3

Wandiana Feb 14 2017 12:36 am I Don't care when sun woo hurt, I only care when jidwi Crying. when jidwi cried my heart was crying too ...

Wandiana Feb 14 2017 12:30 am so sun woo is the king of Silla was so bad, this drama makes me hurt, why not ji dwi, is not ji dwi more worthy, I know sun woo the protagonist but the drama is too adored sun woo, even when they all work together to rob the house Park Young-Sil but why are praised only sun woo ?? when the drama did not match expectations

hjlee Feb 13 2017 10:18 pm The wheels on the bus go round and round round and round round and round, the wheels on the bus go round and round all through the town. The door on the bus go open and shut open and shut open and shut , the door on the bus go open and shut all through the town.

What the conclusion of episode 17 & preview of episode 18? There is no improvement at all. So, who would be King Ji heung is actually Sun Woo??? It'd be the worst idea of FICTION drama ever

HistoryLover Feb 13 2017 7:17 pm This is based on record of hwarang segi by heo hyun..its actually record in history that king jinheung rules the silla kingdom for 37yr since he was only 14yr at that time..so we can say that the gap time in this series is a little off but its really happen 1500yr before...it is the 3 kingdom before joseon time..its kind of creation of past and present where we can say they not 100% refer to history and its only natural if female lead has such character that viewer might find it awkward and unnecessary but without the female lead its difficult for the stories to continued.. So open up your mind viewers and expect less from history and enjoy the goofy entertaining hwarang could bring..

flumpool Feb 13 2017 5:18 am People have to accept if someone criticize a drama. A drama needs both good and bad review so that the future drama wont repeat the same mistake like this terrible drama. If the drama is bad, just speak out our opinions. And in my opinion, this drama starts out good and i really enjoyed it, but now, everything is messed up. I tried to force myself to finish this drama but i cant. It is just too awful. The love story is really annoying and unnecessary at all. And ahro's character. . . Is soooo unnecessary and annoying. Sorry

au_syd Feb 13 2017 4:12 am I find it a bit awkward when the female lead still calls him as her brother and yet they are having a romantic affair :( ... I didn't feel the chemistry because in my mind they are still siblings since he accepted the name and responsibility of her deceased brother. A bit disappointed with the flow but I hope she will end with the second lead.

key Feb 12 2017 10:03 am @legolashair,,I also have the same expectation like you. It is not wrong for having love plot but it is not necessary to focus on that theme.

By the way,i hope that the ending will be unexpected so that viewers will satisfie.

fighthinghwarang

Lee Seo Hwa Feb 12 2017 9:55 am @Mermaid

They're actually student like from the Heirs or To The Beautiful You though. Actually this drama is not Joseon era! It's Sillah era! Joseon weren't born on 1,500 years! King Jinheung is Sillah Dynasty base on true story, Queen Seondeok's grandpa is Jwi Di.

Mermaid Feb 12 2017 9:01 am Dropped...the warriors do not seems too manly but more to the idols of joseon era. I'll just watch the rebel instead. I feel go ara is suitable to be the princess character.

Castlin Feb 12 2017 5:27 am Hopeless... drama series.. Just to get attention they put alot of kissing scene! !!! historical drama should not be like that.. pity for park seo jin and park hyung sik.. they are both good actors but the story and the leading lady doesnt match to their level... sorry!!!! i didn't watch this drama but my sister keep tagging me in our facebook account. (videoclip)

affar Feb 12 2017 3:52 am I love this drama because seojun go ara & hyungsik but plot is boring & don't understand why character aro so weakness many cry So sad for me

shane Feb 11 2017 1:48 pm ah ro makes this drama even boring... her expression is rather always angry or crying.. the concept is good but having Go Ara as main lead pull this down. im not against her personally it's just that this is not the main lead actress for her tomtake with.

LegolasHair Feb 11 2017 12:40 pm I had high hopes, i expected actual focus on the lives and development of Hwarang boys and their impact on society. But what I rather get to watch Is More of the oh-so-boring love triangle between ji dwi, ah ro and moo myung. If it doesnt sound bad enough, the push and pull of ahro and moomyung lasts for too long making it seem stretched unnecessarily!

The princess, on the other hand, is definitely more interesting and great to watch.

Unknown Feb 11 2017 7:50 am @eva I totally agree with you. I really love this drama and the actor and actresses were so good too. Well I just came here to check when will be the next update of this drama but when i scrolled down I felt sad and disappointed to those people who criticized this drama. The cast and all the staff don't deserve this, I mean they did their best just to entertain us but what you guys(the haters) do is to say such things about their roles and also the story. For goodness' sake if they don't like the story then you shouldn't have watch it in the first place. And if they don't like the other cast and they're just watching hwarang just to support their idol but they don't like the other characters or the story then why don't they support the other characters and the story and don't revile them and their works for the sake of everyone, right? I've been watching kdrama since I was 8 that means 8 years and I think this is one of the best kdrama I've ever watch. Well this is just my opinion and hope that the haters will lessen. (ps. this is a drama or series not a movie ^^)

araboni Feb 11 2017 1:39 am @Raby agree with you!! I watch this movie just only to see how king struggle to get the throne. about the love story between ahro and sunwoo it is really annoying and nonsense! I cant imagine it when someone who are suppose to become her brother (master ahnji ask sunwoo to act like ah ro brother) be her lover and kiss each other. very annoying. ah ro doesnt care about her real brother when she know real sunwoo already died

Latasha Feb 10 2017 12:04 pm Team Sun woo! Love him to bits!

Bon Feb 10 2017 11:04 am @saman, yup terrible :/ @kawaii, yes the princess has better persona @tali, there's only one sole purpose for sunwoo to step up and declare himself as king: to save Aro. The reason also he joined princess to go to baekjae is because of Aro. It wasn't a heroic decision for all people because his main focus was Aro and Aro only. Just maybe that along the way he started to care for people and began to sympathize the princess but his actions can't be considered heroic because he never cared of Jidwi's feeling, knowing that he's the king. To me, how dare he stepped forward and continue to act the way he acted--mocking jidwi and took charge just to show that he's incompetent. And looking back the reason he joined hwarang was to pursue revenge over his best friend. I don't know whether his character would develop into a true hero, but as of now is only for aro. It's going to be a different path is he were to be paired with princess. I think if he cares for princess, it would be more make sense that there's a path for him to care for people of shilla. His relationship with Aro is too cringey too watch, let alone Aro that is so obsessed with him.

Raby Feb 10 2017 8:01 am I just wrote this because so many people call this the best series of 2017, hold your horses the year just started!

I won't say that this drama is very bad, but it isn't great either. The plot should have been: "Drama series depicts the story of Hwarang (literally "Flowering Knights") - an elite group of male youth in during the Kingdom of Silla."

But what did we get? A somewhat disturbing love story between a woman that keeps calling her lover brother while kissing him, and a man that just acts like a 10 year old that doesn't know much better.

By far Ah-ro is the most annoying of the two, with Sun-woo you see that he has great moments as well where he plans out things and they do seem to go his way. Just like when he was in beakje, he talked so well with the prince that he made him change his mind in a way.

With Ah-ro it is just crying and calling out for her brother/lover and always getting herself in useless trouble. Why on earth would a woman that goes for a peace mission into a country where they could be killed for just coming try to safe a kid? Don't get me wrong, she does have a good heart but she should have known she would only cause so much more trouble for herself, her brother/lover and her country, she isn't even strong. And her love troubles trouble me deeply, sorry. She should have been this love-guru telling spicy stories but oh boy she is horrible.

Then the plot: we see so little of the Hwarang we were promised, no one has a really good developed character, just Ban-Ryu gets some action. That is only because his dads play a big role in the whole series. They should have named the series pretty wallflowers and Ah-ro.

Next is the Jidwi, such a great guy. Knows something is wrong but can't act upon it, shows remorse. How is he shown to be such a aweful king?

There are many things that stop this drama from becoming great like the plot told us before it began. But please do watch it, there are great moments and it really isn't bad. The real backstory keeps me going, I want to see someone become king, I wanna know what Ah-ro's dad will do and so much more. Try the series!

To all the crewmembers that worked hard to make this for us <3 thank you very much. I will enjoy it

park shin taa Feb 10 2017 7:40 am I love so much this drama. I can feel chemistry between seo joon n go ara. I very like them. I hope happy ending for seo joon n aro. No matter what bad think u say about them. How poor u are! #teamsunwoo ??

No Name Feb 10 2017 12:52 am Sun Woo adoptive father tell to Lorn Ahn Ji that he shouldnt let Sun Woo be expose to the world. Before he also said , Sun Woo gonna face his own 'destiny' which mean Sun Woo is the the average person.

In the real history Queen Jisoo has two sons, one is SamMakJeong another is Sujijong. At that era, it shouldnt have twin candidate to becoming a King, so one of them should been killed. Instead of killing, Queen Jisoo ask to hide his son and give to the guardian without giving any name( No Name = Moo Myung). Queen Jisoo only keep SamMaekJong by her side and give full protection for him and the throne.

However, Sujijong @ Sun Woo has been promoted to the people as the King Jinheung. There also a few hint that Sun Woo will be the real King Jinheung. One of it , is the message from Crown Prince of Baekjae, that he said he will gonna meet again King Jinheung. And in the real history also stated that King Jinheung had an allied with the King of Baekjae ( Before is Crown Prince of Baekjae).

Theres two prediction from me, first one, whether SamMaekJong will change his throne and name to his longlost brother and the other one is Sun Woo is gonna die by the disease.

Another hint that Sun Woo is the Queen's Son is they face the same symptom that is the symptom of faint. This also happen to the princess as well. So it means that Queen, Sun Woo and the Princess have the same genetic.

Monarina Feb 10 2017 12:11 am Scenario sucks .. Goaran's scenes are not pushing too much. I would not watch if Hyungsik and other players were not. Boring

Han Sung Girl Feb 09 2017 11:25 pm I always see Team Aro and Jidwi, when there's always Moo Myung and Jidwi together... jk Im team Moo Myung and Aro XD I love how Mak Moon said "Someday you'll marry my sister" something like that, and I love how Moo Myung always thinking about Aro's safeness. Anyway I love everything in Hwarang. It's perfect for me = )

Ayush Feb 09 2017 11:45 am I really love this drama soooo much, those actors are really amazing, for me this drama deserve more rating thann this.

eva Feb 09 2017 7:08 am I love this drama and its actrors and actresses but I feel sad when read the comment section. For once, I am glad this drama is pre-produced otherwise I feel the writer may change the strory according to fangirls desire (happed to many dramas before). I don't understand why you (fangirls) so impatient?let's the writer tell their story. I love all characters in hwarang even the villains and I don't get the hate for the main leads (Seojoon and Ara) both for their fiction characters and the real person. I don't want to assume but can't help to think that mostly viewers of this drama are young or it is their first kdrama. I've been watching kdrama for more than 10 years, I think this drama not as bad as people said or dragging. In this drama (or real life) the characters make mistake and learn and also there are misunderstanding, conflict, clash of desire or ego, pain, happiness, fear, etc. It is not always shunsine and rainbow. Maybe because I watch it without any expectation to begin with nor I die hard fan for its actors or actresses. I do get why people love JiDwi (he is typical Mr Perfect or kdrama male lead and I love him too) or Hyungsik as an actor but I hate it if your love for one actor make you narrow minded and bash other actors or the writer if story not going your way.

Tali Feb 09 2017 6:28 am I love this series, and I'm amazed how many in the comments below totally miss the important parts in the plot. Sun woo had to step up to declare that he's the king in order to protect Ji Dwi''s life and save the peasants, Arizona, and the others. Ji Dwi was afraid, and also be could never defeat the Crown Prince in the hand-to-hand combat. He would have died, and the princess, the others ,the peasants, all would all have been killed, and the country would have been conquered. Sun woo sacrificed himself for his king and country, and he won. He was also strong mentally to stand up to the Prince, and Ji Dwi wouldn't have been. Sun woo also went back to free the peasants and bring them home. Ji Dwi couldn't have done that because he still has much to learn to be a great warrior and a fearless leader. Ji Dwi is learning how to be a strong king from Sun woo. He is learning what courage and sacrifices are, and he's learning to become a leader. Sun woo is also teaching him to have compassion for the poor and see them as real people, not just "subjects."

It is very clear, from the hints, that Sun woo will turn out to be also be noble. He's already noble in his nature and in his actions.

Why would anyone want to have Aro end up with Ji Dwi, when she's deeply in love with Sun woo and he with her? He's not stealing her from Ji Dwi. Those two have been in love since they saw each other.

I love this show, and it's very interesting, culturally historically, and literarily. In addition, the actors are great to look at and are good actors. :)

Christina Feb 09 2017 5:43 am Gosh! I am so sick of the love story between Sunwoo and Ahro... it's getting dragged to the point it became annoying. Poor Jidwi... such a good character is made into a fool because someone couldn't develop its character better. This was suppose to be a drama about friendship and how the King took his throne back but it became a mess after episode 8. I don't know how I manage myself to still watch this. Probably my only hope for this drama is Park Hyun Shik and Do Ji Han cuz the rest... not bad actors but bad written characters and poor story development between them.

Khuristine Feb 09 2017 3:21 am Done watching ep 16 but still can't get over with ep.15 yet. Andwae! I mean that ep was just so heartbreaking. Please Writernim, don't do this to my Ji Dwi. U shouldn't be doing this to him. He has been hiding for a long time because of her mother, and is now coming out of his shell, joining hwarang thinking that this would help him change his nation. I was touched upon the point he stopped other hwarangs to use their sword against those starving farmers. He doesn't think on impulse. Not because he is cowardly but because he thinks about his people~his subjects, in which I believe him to be way more profound. On the other side, I don't oppose to the idea that Ah Ro will end up with Sun Woo coz ikr from the start. I'll be happy for them. But please Writernim, be fair to my sweet Ji Dwi and make his character a brave one instead. Let him redeem himself at least. I want him to eventually take the spotlight and reveal himself as a King--a great king who will govern his country~his subjects. Please I beg of u Writernim. Coz if not then, that would be sooo cruel, too heartless. Seulma! It can't be. I just cannnttt ... Neomu neomu ??????

Khurzz Steighn Feb 09 2017 3:15 am Dear writernim, should u really be doing this Ji Dwi ? He did nothing wrong. He didn't even know that those who sees his face will end up dying. He's such an innocent who barely manage to break out from his shell. He is not a cowardly King. Why make his character a pathetic and weak one? You focus so much on the character of Sun Woo, showing off his best shot while showing Ji Dwi's worst? It's not like Ji Dwi is a villain here. Why make him struggle? Please I beg of you writernim ... Ji Dwi is the real King, u should be greeting him "Manse manse man~manse PYEHA" (Long live, long live KING) ???

Khurzz Steighn Feb 09 2017 3:13 am Same here. Why call him orabeoni? Is that how u kiss ur orabeoni? Aish... so disgusting sheeeyyyttt..!

Jared Feb 09 2017 2:45 am The scriptwriter pls dont make the character of Aro call Sun Woo brother when in fact they kiss so passionately. It's so irritating. ... Am still for JidWi and Aro.. So it really pissed me off when Aro and SunWo are so together. Am still watching even if there are scenes wherein Aro and Jidwi are lovey dovey.

Nuponx Feb 08 2017 9:47 pm The rating continue to fall every episode because: 1) the story isn't focus on hwarang, but the love story; 2)I think park hyun-sik is the best actor here, he has strong aura, but the other not, include the main role. Sorry just my opinions, but I still watching, because I love park hyung-sik :D

Enna Feb 08 2017 8:35 pm I'm pretty sure Park Hyun Sik will start to get lead role after hwarang.. He's just oh so good especially his acting for a second lead role. I'll be waiting for your next drama Mr. Park.. Hopefully with one of my fave actresses like Kim so-Hyun for instance ... I think you'll be a good match.

good fan Feb 08 2017 12:56 pm Guys am soo sad and i feel so sorry for all the actors ,the series had so much potential and was supposed to be a super hit but lost all its meaning mid way due to bad story telling and poor character development.All the best to everyone who is still watching.i wish all the best to the entire cast for their future project.After epi 16 there is no hope.....Am done leaving with a broken heart.GOODBYE

Kawai Feb 08 2017 12:09 pm @Bon, i have the same sentiments! I like the princess more even if she's mean than Ah Ro, who became wishy-washy instead of stronger as time goes by. I also like the story of Ban Ryu and Soo yeon, they are so cute together! Also, i hope Ah Ro and Ji Dwi will end up together and The princess and Sun Woo

Kawai Feb 08 2017 12:03 pm i thought it was only 16 episodes, anyway, i really really ship h Ro and Ji Dwi on this one!!! the second lead has it all but still... poor Ji Dwi T_T

whitewolf Feb 08 2017 11:48 am I like the frenemy concept between Sun Woo & Ji Dwi. I hate Ah Ro, she's so annoying especially when she cries, can't she cry without sounds just tears? I hoped they had killed her in Baekje that would have been an interesting plot. They keep prolonging Sun Woo's identity which at this point should have been revealed already.

Enna Feb 08 2017 11:33 am Although the details of the drama is quite errr hmm... In General I like this drama!! Not really bad like what others are saying... I mean..I've watched some dramas were after 1 or 2 I just stop watching. But this drama, I always look forward for the next ep. Well I've got to be honest, I'm not a fan of sun woo here, it's because I think ji diwi over powers him.. jidiwi has a solid story and purpose in this drama, can't help but love his character so much, although i understand why sun woo claimed to be a king , at the same time I hated what he did, I can't help but felt so bad for the real king, but then again ... I think I know why the writer made this happen, to force the king to have courage to reveal himself ( this is the part where I feel that ji diwi should be the main Character, oh sorry even before that I already wished that he is, anyone can please tell me what are u anticipating in this drama aside from the coming out of the real king? ) About Ji diwi's love for aro, hmmm.. I can't really wish for them to end up with each other, although his love for aro moved me so much ( especially when he told aro that he will trade his throne for her, i was sobbing like mad). I would really be glad is ji diwi will be the KING ( please!!!) and just let aro and sun woo together. PS. Part hyung-sik acting and appearance here really fits for a KING , is it just me or he really does look like Orlando Bloom In the hobbit movie, with his long hair .heheh

hanasoo Feb 08 2017 11:16 am Loving this drama so much <3

hwarang Feb 08 2017 10:19 am I think at this point of the drama I can understand why so many of you hate/dislike it so much. I don't hate the drama, I actually find every episode so interesting and intriguing to watch, but then again, the way the writer have been telling the story, is a bit complicated and weird. I wouldn't say dumb because I believe that the way the writer wrote this drama was for a reason so we shouldn't judge her on the way she wanted to tell the story. But then again, the build up of each storyline between the characters is unorganized so this is why I understand the hate some of yall have on this drama.

I guess I will just say the things I also dislike from this drama...not really dislike but find a bit complicated to comprehend because the drama is 4 episodes away till being over and there was just so much thrown in this week's episodes that got me shook, worried, angry, and confused about.

Firstly, Sun Woo. Yes, obviously, everyone's most hated character although he's lead. Okay, not everyone hates him but to those who does, I can understand why. I don't hate him, no, wtf, his character is great and all, BUT, I hate how the writer never told his "official" background. Yes we know his mother left him and so he was raised by that one peasant guy who named him "nameless" but I wanna know why tf his mother left him and what does he have to do with the capital?! In ep 16, when Master Ahn Ji Gon and the peasant guy were talking, the peasant guy started lowkey hinting (I think) that maybe Sun Woo is the Faceless King, but I'm like NO, the writer can't be that unorganized and later on tell us that Sun Woo was the king and not Ji Dwi from the start. Because that'd be so unorganized and make me EVEN more mad at his character. I love Park Seo Joon, but we shouldn't hate on him personally, just his character in this drama. I wish the writer could have taken a different route with his character and make him not associated with the King in any way, but helping the king get to the throne to break away the "True Bone Rank System". Like maybe he is doing that, but the progression has taken too long and I don't know how at this point of the drama, he'll be able to do that since the Queen is basically using him and his "sister/lover" Ah Ro to protect the King. Like he should've really thought better before speaking up at Baekje so that instead of him, Ji Dwi could have came out as king and whooped that mf Crown Prince's ass. LOLOL okay, but yeah, I just have a love/hate relationship with Sun Woo. and I lowkey dislike him being with Ah Ro because we all know, we all want Ah Ro and Ji Dwi together, but that brings me to my next point.

Ah Ro and Ji Dwi - what a tragic love story. Ok, many people have been saying that Ah Ro and Ji Dwi had a much more connection than her and Sun Woo, but honestly I disagree. I'm not saying that her and Sun Woo have a better connection either because both male leads don't have a strong connection with her. And this is where the problem of unorganization from the writer comes from. Yeah, Ji Dwi loves Ah Ro and legit purposed to Ah Ro saying he would not become King if she left with him to be with him forever, (like yes, omfg, I volunteer bby) but the fact that she doesn't even like him from the beginning, really uosets me because she's so mean about it. She's always rejecting him and even when he is caring and looking out for her, she's always looking at Sun Woo for help when Ji Dwi is literally there to help! Like, right now, she's only being nice because she knows he's the King, but if he was just a regular person like Sun Woo, she still rejects him...like WTF Why? okay, im being biased, but it's the truth. lol .. no not really, but it is. still I just dislike how Ah Ro is always going to Sun Woo when Ji Dwi is legit doing everything he can to also protect her. He cared for her since the beginning and she's been his anchor every since the mf beginning, but she is just so mean to him, ignoring him and cursing at him because she thinks he's a "stalker" like NO. lol...that probably all didn't make sense, but to all my Ji Dwi and Ah Ro shippers, yall can relate right? *sighs* it's whatever, I just hope at this point Ji Dwi gets a happy ending like Plz thats all he can get at this point. Save my man from torture LOL

Everyone on this page dislike Ah Ro so much and I can relate sometimes. Like she does cry to much and it makes her feel so weak and that makes me feel so contemplated because I always thought she was going to be a strong female protagonist but she's weaker than the princess! I honestly think they should have included the Princess at the press conference because Go Ara does not play as the only female lead as Seo Ye JI also plays a damn near important role in this drama too. smh. But I mean, we'll always get that one female character who is like your typical female character and I really wish that wasn't the case. We need more strong female characters like the princess!

I love me Princess Sookmyung, she's my fave. Not only because Seo Ye JI plays as her but because she has so much to tell and show in this drama and it's amazing how her characters are influencing the men of Hwarang. That's what they need in the drama. Look at her go.

Overall, the drama is good. I love it! It's confusing and a "playing with my feels" drama, but I think if we overlook all the confusion and anger that the drama brings, we'll understand why it was made the way it was for a reason, i guess.

btw, uhmmm banryu better of not broken up with sooyeon for real or imma fight his little snake ass self. lolol...smh poor bby. :'(

isla rahman Feb 08 2017 8:34 am i like the cast..im sun woo's fan..even though he is the lead actor, the writers somehow make his character to be hated by some viewer..afterall he had to endure, i hope he will get a good ending..i dont mind whether he end up with aro or the princess(i prefer the princess) but at least give him a good n worthy identity in then end..a true bone rank..

flumpool Feb 08 2017 7:41 am Before the drama aired, i really am anticipated in this drama.. Because i really love Park seo joon.. I have been watching his drama since i summon you gold... And i really enjoyed this drama till ep14.. I was like.. Wtf?? What happened with this drama.... Very horrible terrible awful storyline.. Idk why.. But i really hate sun woo here.. And ah ro made the drama even painful to watch.. Gosh im very disappointed in this drama.. Out of all korean dramas i have watched, this is the most awful one.. Sorry.. Just let ahro be with ji dwi (i dont care about this two at all) and sun woo is better off with the princess ? for those who still dont watch this drama, better dont. Disappointment is waiting..

what happened? Feb 08 2017 7:11 am LOL It seems like some of these girls in the comment section watched this to see their Hot Oppas but then gets disappointed by the drama XD XD

PoetWarrior Feb 08 2017 5:54 am Not hating but the writer and crew should do better next time, to be honest. I really like the actors and actresses, the concept, and the story, but it's a bit lacking. It should be titled "The Hwarang's Love" or something. I was expecting more scenes for the 6 Hwarangs together while building friendship, camaraderie, and such. Guess I should not expect next time. :(

But in the overall, I still love this drama(though I'm not fond of sun woo and a-ro). I'm excited with next episode. Fighting! ^^

Bless Feb 08 2017 5:36 am I am a fan of this drama..and i love all the cast...for me the drama is one of the best drama that i ever watch.....so if some of the people dont like this....please dont watch...nobody force you to watch..if you dont know how to appreciate the drama...dont watch better...we dont need your comment anyway.....you better watch your own drama..let us give respect to all the actors and actress...aprreciate thier effort...so to those people who are commenting here with nonsense pls......stop...your such an annoying...

Tina jackie Feb 08 2017 4:45 am I like Hwarang: The Poet Warrior Youth. It is a really well filmed drama. The actors and actresses are so amazing. They had really done a perfect job in this drama. This drama is the best of the Korean historical dramas and it will be the best among all the upcoming Korean historical dramas in future.

Dogbird Feb 08 2017 4:00 am Happy ending for Sam Maekjong pls. This drama was good btw. I dont know why people said that this drama was a joke. I admited that this drama was not good as goblin, scarlet heart and so on. But this drama was quite interesting and not so heavy for a beginner in kdrama world. No hate pls

wandiana Feb 08 2017 2:46 am OMG Eps 16 make me cry, this is so sad, I hope Ji dwi truly king of silla, the king still has to be king nothing else

gizibe Feb 08 2017 2:36 am A-Ro (Go-Ara) ..... what are you doing in this drama? I really don't understand what your role is..... don't you have other facial expression? Park Hyung Sik, fighting! You are really make me feel your (king) struggle. Park Seo Joon .... you really cand do better.... you are getting there. I like Hwarang, tho. Is not very good, but is not boring either. Fighting!

Alotaks Feb 08 2017 2:09 am The queen is not evil. To take the good side of her, She just behave wrongly because of her love towards her son is so big. She just can't believe her son now is an adult that can be the king. She just trying to make the way easier to her son. Although she did wrong many times. She just need to grow wise.

Alotaks Feb 08 2017 2:04 am Before i say this, i should apologize for those who like this drama. Actually, i like the cast, especially sunwoo and the princess. I do believe that they should just end up together. As far as the story goes, the speed is just too slow and now after 16th eps, they still slowly refeals the conflicts. 16 eps and still goin like shit. Although I'm not really into the story of this drama, I'll watch it till the last eps to judge the story properly. So long i watch this drama by quickly skipping it throughhh the end because its just so slow. Somehow i feel so bad for the many good even great casts in this drama for having so many bad comments about this drama. They're so pro. The writers should learn more. It's the only solution for all this mess.

jin Feb 08 2017 1:48 am i relly love this drama #i love seojun go ara hyungsik am wait ep17 figthing

Selena Feb 08 2017 1:29 am Ik that this drama received bad comments, but i do find this drama interesting tho it's a bit slow, the actors and actresses are great, they did their job well. And unlike most of the viewers who ship Aro-SMJ, i really really ship SMJ-the princess, they will become a real cool couple. Can't wait to watch ep 17 next week!

Candy Feb 08 2017 1:18 am When i am watching drama.. I just enjoyed that.. If that sad i am crying, if that funny i am laugh, and if i dont like the drama just stop watching... So.. Why people always complaining... I really love HWARANG.. I love Sun Woo, Ji Dwi, Ah Ro, Su Ho, Ban Ryu, So Yeon, Han sung, Yeo Wol, Dan Se, Pa Oh, princess, Prince Baekjae, general Baekjae, Woo reuk, Wi Hwa, Pi Joo ki, Ah jigong, Evil Queen and even the comandant HWARANG Fighting!!!!

Love hwarang Feb 08 2017 12:43 am I really love this drama and all the character in this drama. I really want to watch a full drama a day coz I cant wait. ??

Leakena Feb 08 2017 12:37 am This drama is really good. I always wonder what's going on next. I just want to watch a full drama a day. Hahahaha

IsabelleJulia Feb 08 2017 12:04 am I know the most of you (the viewers) dislike this drama but please if you want to give comments about this drama, please be careful about what you're going to say. Some of the harsh words may be hurtful to them. Kindly,please watch your words. :) I know what U think of it mostly right & I'm agree with that but U should give comments that doesn't hurt the Hwarang crew.I'm not backing up the crew productions but I just can't stand reading your hurtful & harsh comments. I'm sorry if I'm wrong. ;) Okay like this, to make it simple, what if we search and read on the Internet about the history of this drama. So that we will know the true story. ♡

jos Feb 07 2017 11:28 pm based on script and quality, compare to dots, goblin, sungkyukwan scandal etc, hwarang totally looks like a joke

Sparkling Feb 07 2017 8:20 pm Dissapointed drama! PSJ is great actor, PHS is good also. its such a waste for them to play on this drama. Go Ara’s acting was a joke! This drama only sell the great actors, the story is boring. Just a waste.

Saman Feb 07 2017 4:36 pm Im definitely agree with you @Bon Aro n sunwoo couple is terrible, they dont have chemistry, Idk what happen with park seojun, his acting at the KMHM and SWP is incredible, i like him so much in that drama, but he's so annoying, i dont like his hair style, it make him like a gate keeper, i dont like park Hyung Sik before, i dont watch his drama before, but he make me fall in love in hwarang, his acting was excellent here, he have strong charysma n lovely, i prefer banryu and so Yun hre than the main lead,

Miro Feb 07 2017 2:26 pm I understand those who like Park Seo Joon-that stretched their ideas about the course of the drama and are tolerant of many embarrassing scenes. I stopped to watch the drama from the 14th series, only , along with the 15th part I informative passed to confirm this, that everything worse. Park Seo Joon are at me drew up on most unpopular Korean actor. Enough bothered me already in the drama "Kill Me, Heal Me", where he played a similar role - half-brother. His expression me absolutely does not sit... I apologize to all who have an opposite view. Already this drama I will not comment ...

Bon Feb 07 2017 2:00 pm For some reasons I found sun woo is annoying. It doesn't make sense he claimed himself as king for solely purpose: saving aro. I mean claiming as king is different like claiming as the son of CEO or something. It's a serious thing that it's almost so way off for him to claim himself as king. Don't know why the story line hAd to make Ji Dwi pathetic and weak. Aro and sun woo? Is a complete joke. Although they're not real sibling, but to harbor "love" feeling one to another made me nauseous. Aro is a beautiful girl but she looks so dislikable in here. Always fidgeting, worrying, crying, goshhh can somebody babysits her? In a contrary, I love the princess. Even though she's mean but she's likable. Can we just ship aro and ji dwi? And sun woo with princess? I think if they have feeling toward each other, the development of their feeling is far more interesting to watch rather than aro and sun woo.

KwonFire Feb 07 2017 12:34 pm Hmm so many bad comments here. Many people said this is so terrible. But personally i like the plot and the casts. The actors and actresses are amazing to potrayed their role. They did very good job! But maybe the story is dissapointed yall, especially for hyunshik fans here. but it different for me cause im very like seojun, before he played in hwarang. I love how sunwoo very brave here and have the power to make the unbelievable things became believeable. I love sun woo acting here. but maybe some of the non realistic things in this drama little disturb me. Like the prince buryeo really easy to lose, based the fact that he grow in the war land; how sunwoo didnt hurt that much after get many attacked in 1 on 1 with prince buryeo, he can do that lovey dovey with ahro after getting many slices? Lol non logical things here. And i hope in the next episode ji dwi became stronger and didnt easily backup by sunwoo. I want the happy ending for sunwoo together and ah ro, the jidwi shows his power for became the great king for silla. Fair enough, right? I hope in the next eps the story became more developed and start to reveal sunwoo's real identity gradually.

Heranyi(Hemma Kim) Feb 07 2017 12:31 pm I started watching it aince 13th ep but i love the story & actors especially Hyung sik and Go Ara i don't understand why they are posting terrible comments :(

azade Feb 07 2017 10:54 am AWFULL....i regret waisting my time for this. shame on u director.

Hyung sik Feb 07 2017 10:53 am this drama so terrible drama sooooo slow..I keep watching because of hung sik..don't make me feel waste time to watch This drama if hung sik cannot be a king...??don't be this stories like scarlet ryeoo??

SS Feb 07 2017 9:39 am I personally do not like historical dramas but there are two exceptions in my list thus far: Scarlet Heart Ryeo and Hwarang. Initially, what got me hooked to the story is the mystery in the character of Sun Woo. This is my theory: As there were three great families in obtaining the rule- Kim, Park, and the Seok family, Kim Jinheung is the true son of Queen Ji So and his uncle (Galmun, the younger brother of King Beophyung). Because he is a sacred bone, he is a candidate for becoming the next King. King Beophyung did not have any legitimate sons to reign after him. Hence, his younger brother reigned next. But that does not mean that he did not have any son (maybe an illegitimate one in the person of Sun Woo). Illegitimate because the king may have not been able to marry Sun Woo's mother- the only friend Queen Ji So had whom she framed. I am thinking that this "friend" was the daughter of Master Seok, the grandfather of the half-breed and the incompetent Han Sung. We will eliminate Park Young Shil's right to claim the throne as he did not have any rightful descendant to do so. I don't know but when almost everyone in the Seok family was assassinated, I think that was one of the doings of Queen Ji So. I hope we get the answers to our question in Episode 16.

RyuYeon Feb 07 2017 9:08 am I'm so frustrated with banryu..why he must betray other hwarang. How could he...after he saw by himself what seu woon did to protect 'em all from baekje king.. why he must obey that damn old man..grrrr.. poor soo hyeun. By the way, it's amusing to see how sun woo seem so all right and still in lovey dovey even after being beaten so badly by baekje king.*facepalm*

Sonjo Feb 07 2017 8:37 am I hope Jidwi will not suddenly become a bad person just because everything seems to be taken away from him by Seonu. That'll just make this drama more predictable than it already is! The plot is almost too one-sided in favor of Seonu. How could an experienced warrior like the Prince of Baekje (who, by the way, was naturally winning the fight with "Jinheung" at first) be so badly beaten by the less experienced hwarang? Oh because he has "something to protect"? Pfffttt. The only reason I still watch this is cos I want to see how the character of Jinheung will be developed. please don't keep him as an accessory to make seonu even better than he realistically should be! yes he could really be the true king etc etc. but pls don't develop this or continue on this super predictable storyline. Yes we're still watching, you still have the ratings, but it's frustrating :(

joe Feb 07 2017 8:14 am I'm so dissapointed,the king has so much chemistry with ah to than dog bird,but what the heck is this dogbird and ah to again?!!pfuuuu!a happy ending for the king pls

JiDwi Feb 07 2017 7:03 am Im very very like JiDwi character! park hyung sik is the best, good actor. his skill is natural. jidwi character has many good lesson we can learn from him. I hope the best for King. I know park hyung sik through ji dwi character. I had never know about him before.

ahro Feb 07 2017 2:37 am The writer should be blamed for failures in rating.The story line is quite slow and suck.I feel bad for the actors.

ayu fitriani Feb 07 2017 2:28 am i love all cast in this drama. i love strong character of princess. i love how sun woo protect ah ro. i love how banryu and so hoo now will be friend. i love banryu and soo yeon love each other i love the king but i'm feel pity to him because until now he did not show who is he.:( cmon ji dwi,show yourself if you are the king of silla. i love all ost in this drama. i love all about this drama.

Suria Feb 06 2017 9:44 pm The plot and the twist in this drama is very interesting..getting me crazy waiting for each episode.

guiltypleasure Feb 06 2017 9:08 pm My wish is simple. Let son woo end up with Aro. And let Jidwi be the King . Maybe it end up like that, but the process into it so annoying

Hyeon Feb 06 2017 8:16 pm (My another comment)

I like this film. But, I more like the actors and actresses of course. Their acting is good, they play as their characters. I love them!

I like Go Ara, Park Seo Joon and Park Hyung Sik, also Seo Ye Ji. Wish they can play together at other film.

Hyeon Feb 06 2017 8:12 pm Like this drama until ep.15

Love park seo joon and park hyung sik, they're cute brothers! I already like the princess than A Ro, She is a girl with a strong character, i like that!

After this episode, i'm sure the real king jinheung will show off. This story is begining of hwarangs which become Sila's power in king jinheung's era. So, i think the plot line want to tell us how the begins king jinheung get his throne and show his power become the real king, not hide anymore. I don't know the real story about the king. But, I'm sure before he become The Great King, he was initially suffer and learn from his experience. He must have someone who became his inspiration, like a friend but as a rival.

They invented the character of Sun Woo, a young knight who was great and brave in the initial formation of hwarang. Sun Woo became his friend and his rival (not only about lover, but Sun Woo's character as well as a king).

I like this film. But, I more like the actors and actresses of course. Their acting is good, they play as their characters. I love them!

Moonlight Traveller Feb 06 2017 6:32 pm I really like this drama, Monday and Tuesday is my favorite day of the week. This drama bring life and joy to me. This is not a boring drama every episode it always keep you excited to next one.

0799cs Feb 06 2017 5:40 pm I'm actually really enjoying this drama and its really annoying me how everyones just filled with hate... if you don't like the drama then simply do not watch and stop spoiling it for other people.

Hwarang Not Fan Anymore Feb 06 2017 5:39 pm Hwarang is getting boring! the plot is twisted the main point of story is lost and it is just a whole jumbled mess. today episode was very very boeing and i finished it within 7 minutes. I found myself skipping a ton and not enjoying like i used to

zaza Feb 06 2017 1:16 pm princess sook myung is better than ah ro!!! I hope hyung sikcute and seo ye ji get chance to be lead main in other drama

Librarian Feb 06 2017 1:11 pm The actors are good, but the story line is horrible. No need a lot of twist for a good drama.. It is getting annoying..

Bon Feb 06 2017 12:53 pm I think I'm losing hope here. It looks like the king will not paired up with Aro :'/. It just make the story is weirder and weirder.

Abcusa Feb 06 2017 12:52 pm I think I have a problem here . Storyline sucks. Nothing much happened until episode 14 . But why I am still watching and even looking forward to watch it every Mondays and Tuesdays. Anybody feel the same? Darn it..what a waste time for good talented actors... I wish " Ji-sung Defendant" can help me recover from disaster Hwarang's plot...

pgirlcl13 Feb 06 2017 9:51 am Outstanding performance by BTS, loved Seo-Joon & Hyung-Sik characters role outstanding performances with the action & gut feelings. My opinion the women characters should take the blame for the ratings drop except the Queen Jiso, meaning choice of falling in love & the conflict went against the odds making this drama a hit for the young heroes to become within the drama storytelling. All my opinion & wishing BTS the best with future drama throughout

jay Feb 06 2017 9:14 am They recruit good actors but the story line is terrible. Why hide the king? ِAro looks silly always crying. Is she a kid??? I don't really get why Sun woo and ji dwi like aro??? WTF??

duchess Feb 06 2017 9:11 am Hahahah! @panda,ur comments are funny,but somewhat true! I kinda agree wd u! You just wrote down my thoughts!I exactly dont know where the story is going,lol.But surprisingly,i still look forward to this drama. Perhaps,is it because of the handsome boys?Haha.Yeah i dont know what theyre fighting for but sorry,to all the haters,i still love this drama!Haha. And yeah,i super like go ara but not in this drama. I kinda dont like her character and and acting here...But...this drama is cool!:-)

lanzkiephilippines Feb 06 2017 8:27 am just done watching episode 15 Finally some dramatic scene will happen at ep 16 tomorrow Ji Dwi will change his character after he saw Moomyung and ara kissing, my goddness can't wait until tomorrow

Panda Feb 06 2017 6:00 am I hope that after this drama, Park Seo Joon and Go Ara get another role where we can all forget this travesty of a drama, a dark time in history that we don't want to remember. the plot is a disaster, the pacing is a disaster (what 20 episode drama ever brought in the second lead in ep 9?), character development of the main leads is a disaster, love story of main lead has been exceeded by the love story of side characters (i'm far more interested in Ban Ryu and Soo Hyeon), the female lead's character regressed, second male lead has more depth to his character and background than the male lead himself, second male lead seems more like the main lead! the background of the male lead has been so complacently developed he might as well be an extra. the king and the princess have more charm and charisma than the main leads.

Nothing of significant worth has happened, I don't feel the great responsibility and great warrior part of Hwarang (it's episode 14 so my annoyance is justified), they seem more like kiddy warriors play fighting. there should be a great danger, a core reasoning and point to which all the characters are moving... but i have no idea where the drama is going, i'm not sure what they are trying to achieve (again it's ep 14, i'm justified).

If they wanted to make a light historical drama about beautiful warriors, fine! if they wanted to make a dark historical drama with strong warriors, fine.... but why are they half-heartedly trying to bring heavy stuff into a light drama? The great speeches and epic background music are out of place, nothing epic happens!

i'm also confused at why Sun Woo fell in love with Ah Ro (again lack of building the story up properly).

and most of all, i'm annoyed at the fact that this drama gets to be in the actors records, i've seen the leads in other dramas before, they were good actors! it's not even about bad acting, how can one overcome a horrible plot and story development with good acting? Ah Ro is always crying, i'm sure the dang script says *ah ro cries for the 16th time in one minute* how the heck can you make that look good? the posters be looking like she was a female warrior to or something, who knew she was just some girl fawning over the male lead and crying all the time.

but now the actors can't say "Hwarang? never heard of it!" (T.T)

babykwon Feb 06 2017 4:58 am the only thing that bothering me is... why the queen wanted to matching up ji dwi with the princess? aren't they sibling? or maybe incest are allowed between the royalty? and also the princess declared that she's already engaged with the king... but she called him "orabi" plus the hwarang said that she's really different compared to their mother which means she is a biological daughter of the queen. Please answer my curiousity T.T

k2 Feb 06 2017 3:25 am I think Aro is not necessary in this drama. Even Go Ara acting made the role look stupid. Somewhat agree with @Jouju

Jouju Feb 06 2017 2:42 am Terrible drama. The first episode was not exciting at all but I kept watching because of the cast. The second episode did pick up and was probably the best episode of the season. After that it became another cliche revenge love triangle drama with the sappy love story. I tried to keep watching but it's boring and I completely lost interest. The main characters are irritating and the dialogue/plot is badly written. There was no plot twist or anything that kept me on the edge of my seat to make me excited about watching.

s2 Feb 06 2017 12:54 am Make Park Hyung-Sik character powerful. He may be second lead. But he is king show him powerful.

hwarang Feb 05 2017 7:47 pm I don't like aro.

Christina Feb 05 2017 4:13 pm I just watched episode 14 and I do not want Sunwoo as the king. He doesn't fit the role of a king... he only cares about Aro and revenge. I wish Jidwi will claim what is his fast cuz I am starting to get mad at the fact that the scriptwriters made King Jinheung such a coward (in the last episode ofc).

nitcher Feb 04 2017 10:12 pm i like this drama..very much..i love monday & tuesday ..i cant wait for the nxt episode. ????

Nuponx Feb 04 2017 7:35 pm waiting new episode for a week is too long for me. I love this drama because every actor&actrees act their character very good (especially ji dwi rang ?). I love this drama story and hope it always good till the end.

파틴 Feb 04 2017 10:23 am i will miss this drama for sure . never bored watch this

Duggu Feb 04 2017 10:02 am I think sunwoo is the real king and ji dwi is queen's brother son.

ikook Feb 04 2017 3:42 am waiting episodes by episodes only to see banryu and soo yeon instead of the mains <3 the PD better gives them more screenplay and gives them happy ending!! <3 <3

marthie Feb 04 2017 2:13 am Why people bothering about sun woo's Fake confession about kingship. I know that jidwi loves aro so much. But he need more gutss.

araboni Feb 03 2017 12:30 pm just flow the flow of this drama and watch it calmly.

DramaFreak Feb 03 2017 11:14 am To peterh, you must be trying very hard to defend Sunwoo by dissing up Ji Diwi. LOL..Your assessment about them is obviously bias towards Sunwoo. They both have their own strength and weakness. I bet you'll feel embarrassed later on when you see how their bromance blossoms into camaraderie that would help rebuild Sila into a great kingdom under one of the greatest kings in the Korean history. LOL...Just stop your obnoxious prejudice. Remember it was Ji Diwi stopped those starving farmers from being killed by other Hwarangs the first time when they robbed the Sila delegates. To the delusional fans, Park Hyun Sik has already said in his interview that he was THE KING in Hwarang and there was a pic showing him on the throne in the latter episodes. So stop your delusion to fantasize Sunwoo being the real king!

Piki Piki Feb 02 2017 10:28 pm What is the name of background music that used in episode 13??? Please !!!!!

Karen Feb 02 2017 4:32 pm Our family really loved this drama....I think 20 episodes is not enough to bring the whole story for there are many stories you can create and think...what if???how about??? Still whatever will be the ending...we will respect the writer and still worth to watched ...hope they can have hwarang 2 with the king on the throne and draw nearer to the history of Silla :) thanks for making this wonderful story. To the director, scriptwriter, staffs, actors and actresses ...Great job everyone and God bless you wherever you are ^^ aigoo...now I wish I can visit korea someday and see the places of action ^^

Kaovang Feb 02 2017 11:26 am Stop watching it then. No one is forcing you to watch it lol. Seriously all these immature comments. Let the writer and director produce the drama how it really is. Don't try to complain and make them change he script for your own selfishness. The drama is great the way it is ! Writer and producer , fighting!!! <3 I love all the actors and actresses, I don't understand why you all hate Seo Joon so much? He's so talented and attractive. Whoever is king or whoever gets the girl does not matter. The story isnt your life o_o

raasyndrome Feb 02 2017 4:35 am @Niko : I second that!

King Jinheung is one of greatest King of Silla, how dare they portray such great figure into someone like this!!!

i hope the story would move on soon!

wings Feb 02 2017 4:33 am i support for who they are. im hoping every eps will get even better and better. my wish is to see this drama will be remebered and achieve that 20%. all the crew actor and actress works really hard to get this drama successfully

wings Feb 02 2017 4:26 am tbh it doesnt matter who are we ship tho. they both have the same equal amount of weakness and applicable doing something that beyond our imagination

ahi Feb 02 2017 3:54 am @oshini his named Lee Kwan Hoon

Keyce Feb 02 2017 3:14 am I think Sun Woo is the real king here, the real King Jinheung. Jinheung is the name will be given to the next king of Silla.

@wahiida Feb 02 2017 2:45 am i am so disappointed when sunwoo admit to be a king...WARGHHH

Niko Feb 01 2017 9:48 pm For those dreaming of Sunwoo becoming the king, I don't think the writer will be stupid enough to change the fact that one of the greatest king of Silla, king Jinheung is Sammaekjong. I just hope they don't make the king looks pathetic and weak anymore. I don't care if he doesn't get the girl. I wish he claims his throne soon.

anna Feb 01 2017 9:09 pm i love all cast #figthing i love hwarang (seojun goara hyungsik)

support_JiDwi Feb 01 2017 9:09 pm @peterh I know King character is so pathetic thats why I support him to become the great king in silla. just give him time, he already enough have hard time when he child

Oshini Feb 01 2017 7:21 pm Can anyone tell me the queen's bodyguard's name if you know. He looks like aro's father a lot...

Jane Feb 01 2017 7:08 pm @peterh - I'm agree with you 100%

BAN RYU OPPA!! Feb 01 2017 4:40 pm astonishing!! I cant wait episode 15, woah why did sun woo disguise to be the king. it makes me stress afterall. Am i the only one thinks that Sun woo would become a king? aside from ji dwi? i just thought that sunwoo was one of the king of the 3 kingdoms. I guess because I can sense it XD actually I was so grateful that jidwi and sunwoo didn't betray each other. I can feel that jidwi doesn't want sunwoo to be killed and the same feeling with sunwoo too. I like them . I like their bromance after all. im so confused right now!!! I'm getting stress in this drama.

peterh Feb 01 2017 3:30 pm I actually prefer sun woo, plus aro loves him not jidiwi to change her affection just because the watchers don't want to ship sun woo with aro is just laughable and stupid.

plus jidiwi is a douche bag you don't want to admit he is a pathetic just because his good looking but he is a pathetic loser always focused on himself.

remember he found sunwoo and the real sunwoo dying on the road, and even acknowledge that fact yet he abandoned them to death, is the same as manslaughter. if he was such a great king he should have done something.

plus imagine all the innocent people who were killed with his knowledge, when they found out his identity.

plus to the jidiwi supporters whining about how sun woo said he was the king in episode 14, jidiwi had the same amount of time to confess as sun woo but he was coward to speak up, sun woo didn't steal jidwiw's moment he merely was brave enough to lie to save those who were to die.

KwonFirexx Feb 01 2017 10:00 am I just read the comment section and asked wtf?? why many of you hate sunwoo in this drama? Is it just me that think that this drama is amazing? the actors and actresses are very superb! they can deliver their own character. first i kinda irritating with aro but i try to understand her character now. i love both ji dwi and sun woo, they act very good. and other hwarang like han sung, soo ho, ban ryu, etc. But i kinda surprise too when seeing sun woo end up saying that he is the king, like what? i hope ji dwi will be more brave to admit that he is a king. but again, sun woo took him over. I know sunwoo end up saying that thing because he cannot see aro killed, since he live for aro, and it reallyyy a gentle act. sun woo sacrified himself. Im shock but it makes me more curious and want to watch the next episode! It really worth to watch! I interested in how the writer nim put sunwoo for being a 'king'. There is still something missing, so be patient! It more more more interesting in every episode.

But I hope aro and sunwoo together in the end, and jidwi will be the king of silla:) hope the ending didnt disappoint us! maybe eps 14 makes you disappointed but i suggest you for keep watch the next episode, maybe there's some reason between it hehe.

Sun Woo Feb 01 2017 9:28 am I Think, Sun Woo, Moo Myung Rather, Is The Real King, He Was Abandoned By Her Mother The Queen, For Safety Reasons.. Then Moo Myung Meet Mak Moon Who Became His Friend ,, Then So On.. Past Forward. Moo Myung Fake His Identity To Get Revenge For The The Death Of His Friend. Then Became Hwarang.. Then So On, He Will Be The King Of Silla, I Hope So. Hahah I Want Him, lol, Even He Doesn't Be The King I Still Love This Drama. I Love All Actors and Actresses Who Played Their Role, I Really Enjoy Watching It.. !

support_JiDwi Feb 01 2017 9:21 am JiDwi, please reveal your true identity as a King. Seonu, why you said you was the King if you know you are not King?!! Writer, please make a happy ending for JiDwi. Lets him become the true King JinHeung please. Lets him fight for his subject and nation! Let he become a brave King for his nation. Totally wait for that moment

zaho Feb 01 2017 9:09 am @namuu me too. If seonu will be a king, I'll stop watch it! I still hope happy ending for king, her character is so pathetic, he should wake up and be a king and make Silla a great one. T.T when he want to reveal as a king? T.T patiently wait that episode

Leakena Feb 01 2017 8:57 am I wonder who is dog-bird?

namuu Feb 01 2017 8:24 am If dog-bird will be a king, I'll stop watch it.

Roanne Aniciete Feb 01 2017 7:21 am Excited 2nyt episode here in brunei

jess Feb 01 2017 7:16 am

- spoiler

Lol i really waited the time when JiDwi revealed his true identity but taddaaaa Sun Woo was ahead of him ?

Bon Feb 01 2017 6:54 am Seo ye ji is awesome!! She totally dig as the princess. Her acting is superb. I hope she and oraboni will be a couple!

Queen of King Jinheung Feb 01 2017 3:54 am I really love historical dramas and i love this one in the beginning but while watching it, i feel so frustrated how slow the movement of the story. It's episode 14 but there are still many things left unsaid or hidden. I hope the ending will be great and not rush like the others. And i hope Sam maek jong can have time to shine because i think as a King, he is not getting any of it. Please don't make us disappointed writer-nim :)

Gen Feb 01 2017 3:43 am I am trying to watch this drama coz of Ji Dwi. I hope he will be paired with Aro. I know Sun Woo is the lead but it irritates me when he and Aro are together esp with sweet moments. I hope Sun Woo will be paired with the princess and JiDwi will still be the king of Silla.

fa Feb 01 2017 1:10 am i love aro first ep , I felt sad after her many cry, it is not fun.i love go ara but why writter bad scrib, I will write to her as bright and funy.

jidwi Feb 01 2017 12:11 am After watching episode 14, I start have paranoid, they will change the king, sun woo will be the king of Silla!! Oh nooo, it's like someone stealing my ice cream in hot weather at amusement park !!!!*feelingangry

Bboo Jan 31 2017 11:30 pm I have mixed feeling regarding the ending of ep 14, kinda disappointed but can related to the writer. I really want the identity of Ji Dwi being revealed since we almost run out of time ( only 6 eps to go) but again , according to this drama , he is not the main lead, the main is Su Woo so all characters were built around his fictional character. I really want the writer emphasize on Sam Maek Jong because HE IS the real king and he was the greatest king of Silla. Oh well, let's see how these things will wrap up., hope no more love triangle , we need to move on to real business conquer the throne...

Bluelaberry Jan 31 2017 11:24 pm Sook Myun know her real brother doesn't she? What did I miss, Why I can't understand hher facial expression in the last minute of the last episode?

john wayne Jan 31 2017 11:00 pm @kalen......agree w/ you 300%

realbjae Jan 31 2017 7:33 pm I'm an ARMY & i watch this drama to support our hansung (actually i'm not interested to watch kind of historical drama) i thought this drama would be boring but i was wrong! This drama has a twist in every episode.

I somewho like park seo joon (sun woo) in this drama. I dont know why but i'm sure that he will be the king later. There is possibility he is Master Hwi Kyung son who supposed to be the king.

Since the first episode they always said that sunwoo identity must be keep on secret & sunwoo who is someone that they dont want to know who is he actually.

I feel bad for sam mek jong because he cannot reveal himself as a king even he want to. I can't wait for the next episode, It's getting more and more tense. drama

Siro Jan 31 2017 7:27 pm I think you all can't blame all the actor and the actress about what character they have. Go ara really suit her character about being woman who has a lot cry, mad, frustasting. What you don't like is the character of aro who is being the main actress. Just it. Its not fair if you all criticize about ara's acting cus she get the character. The character that you don't like Jidwi will be the king at the last cus the real history say that. But this drama is taken by sunwoo for the main actor, so the story will be around him, supporting him in many scene like the ending of ep 14. So what happend for this story is to lead jidwi learn about what he don't have in sunwoo to be the real king so he can beat his mother when he strong enough.

Reddy Jan 31 2017 5:52 pm First I wasn't a fan of this drama at all. Historical dramas are my favorite but the mix of historical and present like this one didn't pleased me at all (the giseang house like a club, the shower rooms etc). But the sweet Jidwi won me over. I really like him a lot and I'm waiting every weeks for the episodes of this drama so much because I want everyone to know that he is the king.

[Spoiler] That's why I'm really frustrated and disappointed by the end of the 14 episode. Jidwi was about to say that he is the king and... Tada ! Sunwo just get in front of everyone yelling that it's him ! So frustrated because Jidwi is so sweet and have ethics and deserved his moment to shine. But once again Sunwoo took his place. So frustrated... Everyone seems to think that Aro is boring but I personally find Sunwoo much more and he is strating to get really on my nerves.

Park Seojoon was excellent in "Kill me Heal me" but I'm not convinced by him in this drama, or maybe just by his character, or a mix. On the contrary I've never been a fan of Park Hyunsik as an actor (and an idol by the same way) but I really fell in love with his character and his acting. And his voice is really damn sexy ! OMG

I hope that I will not be frustrated until the end and Jidwi will eventually reveal that he is the king, because there was a lot of hints about Sunwoo becoming the king later. I'm okay with dramatic, sad, heartbreaking dramas and everything but frustrating drama are the worst XD

PumpkinSarr Jan 31 2017 5:28 pm I have an idea. Sun Woo maybe is a Baekje king and JiDwi Silla, as we already know. Master Hwi Kyung said about changing the king so knowing that he is the Queen brother, maybe Sun woo is his real son and will be the King there. Anyway I'm glad that Princess is in love with SunWoo. They look better together than with Ah Ro.

Miro Jan 31 2017 4:31 pm @Fighting! criticize someone are fans the king and himself cheer for Myung Moo ... :) and comments are only the expression Moo Myung (Park Seo Joon-). Perhaps it wants a script, but it bothers me. I hate arrogance ...

zaza Jan 31 2017 12:36 pm I thought jidwi want to reveal himself as a king in the end of ep 14!!!! but seonu said he as a kingg??? jidwi please be strong. im patiently wait for you to get the throne!!!! waaa feel pathetic for the king. (im not watch ep 14 completely bcs there is no eng sub)

kalen Jan 31 2017 11:39 am So I guess I'm not the only one who dislikes Aro. I'd probably like this drama if it wasn't for her. I find her very very irritating. She doesn't know how to act and her facial expressions are so awful. Either she pressing her lips together and gives a "glowering" look or she's crying stupidly in an ugly way. Unfortunately she has so many scenes. :(

I wish they'd develop the story of the hwarang boys more after all this is supposed to be a story of their brotherhood. I still watching this because of them. I just rush through when it's just Aro scene. Who else does this? (Raise hands!) hahahaha

azade Jan 31 2017 10:43 am AWFULL...what the heck... aro played awfull no change in her face in all scenes no new story with a lot of flaw of directing and disguisting ost....

i regret watching it . it jus waisted 10 hrs of me. oh shame on u director...

RyuYeon Jan 31 2017 9:21 am It's getting more and more tense. Igreatly hope and craving more scene between banryu and soo yeon as their scene too sweet to watch for once. I do hope ji dwi became a king at last. He deserves that, though there's hint that sun woo maybe the king. Just worried the ending may disappoint me as I hope to much for the sweet one.

Nancy Jan 31 2017 7:50 am @Sandra I totally agree with you, Aro's acting is cute at first but as the drama goes on, it's kinda irritating. Her facial expressions are either frowning, mad or crying, I haven't seen her face in a normal way.. This is a nice drama though. I'm just curious about the ratings, sometimes its up, sometimes it's way down.

Sandra Jan 31 2017 5:00 am I'm serious fan of Korea drama!!! I love this drama but Aro's acting is making this drama boring, I always wish to skip her part. At first it was interesting but lately as boring as hell.

herfi Jan 31 2017 1:29 am When will people know ji dwi is the real king? How the way? All of episodes, that is the only thing Interesting and I wanna know at this drama

hwarang fan Jan 30 2017 5:31 am I love hwarang.But just wish soo yeon and banryu can be film in more.Their love is so sweet . lookin forward for next epsode

George Jan 30 2017 1:47 am I'm here as Seojoons supporter. I've seen him in variety shows, film and even drama series. God!! he's just an amazing actor. I hope to see more of him in the future.. Hwarang is the best and also the cast.. Lovelots!

Nancy Jan 29 2017 11:16 pm I'm also one of the hopefuls of the Jidwi and Aro loveteam and I wanted them to end up together because of their chemistry more than the Seonu/Aro pairing.

Yvettiepie19 Jan 29 2017 10:50 pm Jidwi became the greatest and most popular King of Silla. According to the history his mother became the regent coz he was still too young to rule. He is my favorite character in the drama. I really wish he ends up with A-ro. They have a better chemistry together. And she is the only commoner he trusted. I don't want his heart to break. I also would love to see Moo-Myung/Sun Woo with the princess and have a sibling relationship wth A-ro. I think the limping man is Sun woo's father and might be the king but was ousted due to his illness And Jidwi's father is his brother. So maybe to protect Sun woo he took him to Cheonin so the queen will not go after him. I wish this drama was filmed live. The problem with pre-production drama is that they can't really make any changes, just like scarlet heart the ending was really awful.

Yazaira L Valenzuela-vasquez Jan 29 2017 8:02 pm By far one of the best shows I have seen in a long time. The story line is simply amazing.. Love Hwarang and all of the cast. This show definitely keeps you on your toes.

Kookies Jan 29 2017 11:20 am Watching hwarang for tae (hansung) then end up falling to minho (soo ho), banryu, and jidwi. I started to wish ah ro will end up with jidwi tho. Their story is more exciting than the story with sunwoo even im a big fan of park seo jun. Please let ah ro and ji dwi end up together ?

Purple and Amethyst Jan 29 2017 10:31 am This drama will make you excite, cry , laugh and love. First episode is a thumbs up . I love action with mix of comedy and romance .It is not boring to watch since all of the actors are very talented. I cant wait to watch episode 13 because im curious about the identity of dog bird . There are so many theories that im thinking about what will happen next. Also I love their OST sang by BTS .It makes me hum , since im not a korean ?. After this hwarang I hope the writer can remake fushigi yugi and I want them to cast all the actors of hwarang . ??

kaya Jan 29 2017 9:41 am @ Nate: cutting off his topknot meant that he cut of the warrior's honor and pride.

zerah Jan 29 2017 9:31 am @Nate He was a winner because he cut off the honor and pride of that warrior. During that time, for men to cut of their long hair was a dishonor. Something really serious!

Bakhialakshmi Jan 29 2017 7:54 am Though sun woo is not ah ro's biological brother but her father consider him to be his own son and ah ro's brother so whatever it is from my point of view we think them as sibilings .sudenly from the episode 10 how do you can change the concept. And from the 1st ji dwi admitted to ah ro and sun woo about his feeling and also to the queen .then i don't know the concept and while iam waiting for the upcoming episodes i hope that the relationship between ah ro and sun woo will change into love between sister and brother .and also ah ro will accept jwi di's love. Fingers crossed.

Jannat Jan 28 2017 3:03 pm I love this drama, the acting and actors are just mwuah, can't wait to see wat happens next

Nate Jan 28 2017 10:11 am hey guys!! just want to know in episode 12 why seonu considered as winner after he slash/cut *topknot* ofPark Young Pil's bodyguard?

Does the slash/cut on his topknot considered as major victory? can somebody explain it briefly :) ;)

mee Jan 28 2017 7:37 am i love saeguk, but this one is different, not my cup of tea. but if you love to see more romance than politic, you might love it.

Elena Jan 28 2017 5:54 am The relationship between Ah Ro and Sun Woo feels too incestuous even though I know he's not her biological brother. It's just that she liked him while thinking he's her brother! Ugh.

Ah Ro and Ji Dwi, however, are perfect! Ji Dwi loves her in a selfless, gentle way, very unlike Sun Woo's immature and rash affections and actions!

Amara Jan 27 2017 3:40 pm I love this. Please tell me there is going to be a season 2..please.... Jidwi is perfection and the most beautiful creature ever; Park Hyungsik has done an amazing job on this role. He is the King and that is plan to see by his attitude, character, and presence on screen; and Park's performance is one of superiority. Aro is a lucky girl (in Hwarang universe). Fans are here in the states for sure. Brilliant writing and the actors are doing a fabulous job. #HwarangRules

Jeannie Jan 27 2017 2:56 pm I just love Hwarang. Cant wait from week to week to see it. So torn for who I want Aro to end up with. I love them both.

Yulik Jan 27 2017 8:15 am People are busy praising Hyungsik while I'm here and stay because of Seojoon. Talking about chemistry, I kind of agree that Aro and Jidwi looks good together. But talking about fairness, Sunwoo definitely deserves Aro more, he got shot by arrow and he was hurt multiple times protecting Aro while Jidwi only being jealous over Sunwoo. And I agree that the story should be more focused on the Hwarang rather than the triangle love, I love Hwarang and the training (esp the combo Master Wihwa x Pi Jooki lmao) so much! Can't wait for the day they change Silla and make the queen shook. Nice drama!

Fighting! Jan 27 2017 3:59 am Ahh It's nice to see some love and hate from these comments. I know everyone has different opinions and tastes so let me share mine. These actors/actresses has done quite well in their acting and has done well to portray their characters and the rates has gone pretty high these last couple of episodes. Can I just say why would anyone want to criticise their characters in the film it is obviously how their characters are like, if you don't like the characters or the plot I suppose you shouldn't watch the drama because its not gonna change for your own benefit also stop complaining about the actors of this series (also gonna include other actors from other drama series) they all have worked hard to make sure we enjoy the drama not to mention the directors and staff they were stuck in the boiling heat it's not as easy but it's not like anyone would listen straight away and stop complaining, just give it a thought. I fully support this drama and think that it's great all the actors and actresses are significant. The Romance, Bromance and really funny scenes in this drama are the reasons why its great not all dramas are perfect so what do you expect? By the way I do not care who Ah Ro ends up with since both guys are simply perfect for her but I still don't understand how others do not see the chemistry between Moo Myung and Ah Ro its either people's hearts have been stolen by the king and that they are completely blinded from it or that their minds are already closed because they love the other pair too much or they just see them as siblings because that's what everyone was supposed to see them as because honestly I see those two as more then siblings

feby_katsu Jan 27 2017 3:00 am I hope ah ro and ji dwi can be a couple not with sun woo/moo myung :D

Ems_hannah Jan 26 2017 5:47 am I love this K-drama so much!!!! I like all the actors and i ship both Sun Woo-A-ro and Ji Dwi-A-ro ... whether A-ro will end up with Sun Woo or the King is fine with me LOLZ.. I find Soo Ho so charming and it's so cute that he's infatuated with the Queen.. I like Ban Ryu and Soo Ho's sister. Han Sung is so cute.. I like the bromance between Sun Woo & Ji Dwi.. i like it when Soo Ho bickers with Ban Ryu.. This is the first K-drama that i like all the main characters .. and i cant wait for the coming episodes. Great, great Show.. I wish it will have higher ratings. K_drama is my vitamins hahaha

kitty Jan 26 2017 1:34 am i love oraboni king and aro so much wait monday

Olive Jan 26 2017 12:48 am I love this drama so much

Kheiriyah Jan 25 2017 6:05 pm I love this drama, Minho is so handsome and i like ban ryu soo yeon couple ??

alizeh Jan 25 2017 4:33 pm When people say aro and sunwoo don't have chemistry, i asked myself again, i can't find the answer. I just think that they're good, i'm so happy that in ep 11-12 the scene between aro and ji dwi is little hoho. I think i'm the only one who ship ji dwi and the princess, ji dwi is a charming person, and the princess is so cool!!

I can't understand ahn ji gong's character at all, he's so confusing.

JJ Jan 25 2017 10:07 am I really like this hwarang korean drama.. but i notice that many gave negative comments about this, specially the characters of Sunwoo and Aro.. Its really true that most of the people nowadays specially people who was born as a millennial was very impatient and wanted to be pleased in every way. if you always keep complaining about the drama and so do not watch! they need support not your complains! so immature! if they could just get ratings from their international viewers i really think their ratings is higher than from their country. go go go Hwarang team! you have lots of viewers international.. we are still looking forward for next the episodes!!

Nancy Jan 25 2017 8:54 am Wow, what a leap in the ratings! I hope it would improve more now that the story is halfway through. I'm still for the King and Aro, Seonu and the Princess and I love Sooyeon and Banryu.

dididi Jan 25 2017 8:17 am I just wanna say, I like this drama since the first time.. I will watch this drama till the end of episode..

all actor & acrees has did the hopd job..

mandy Jan 25 2017 5:59 am if I have to choose one guy from this drama then.......honestly it will be very difficult, love all the characters and I am enjoying watching it

kingaro Jan 25 2017 1:26 am i love king and aro couple so much #best chemistry

seo joon hyung sik Jan 24 2017 11:58 pm more interesting.. i like this drama.. i like dog bird, i like the king.. love their bromance.. I love Park's

I can't wait next week to watch ep.13. I ship Sun Woo & A Ro, but i don't know why, now i just thought that The Princess more suitable for Sun Woo. Hahaha.. i think they're suit couple too.. I think the king is the king, Ji Dwi/Sam Maek Jong more suitable for the king. And Sun Woo suitable for Great General.

Mimi Cabance Jan 24 2017 10:43 pm Hwarang is the best...

fara Jan 24 2017 8:31 pm i fall in love king and aro couple so muchhhhhhh

die hard army Jan 24 2017 6:05 pm Why are some of you guys criticizing their acting?? They worked so hard in summer to do this! And they surely did an amazing job! I think Sun Woo is a great actor. But I hope the king gets aro and sun woo the princess. Sun Woo and A Ro should be like siblings!

liili Jan 24 2017 5:49 pm I hope the king gets the girl!!! :D and i wanna see more of ban ryu and soo yeon!! they're so cute :D :D

Princess Jan 24 2017 10:30 am This drama could have been more interesting if they focus on the characters itself than the love triangle. It really does show that Park seo jun and go ara dont have any chemistry. Plus, they hyped up a lot this drama that it does not feel they are living up to the expectation. I expected a lot from this drama but the plot should have been focusing more on the "WHYs". It's already halfway to the end and I dont seem to find the answers to my questions (sun woo's identity, king's reason of hiding, etc) the actors are very promising (I love park seo joon) but the story is dragging too much!!!!! I also dont like go ara's acting, it does not feel natural at all. As much as I want to finish this because of Park seo jun, I cannot seem to do so. and it's really odd that the supporting love story (ban ryu and minho's sister) is much more interesting and cute than the main love story itself. So sad :((

the production team is the one at fault!!!!!!

Jocelyn Jan 24 2017 10:13 am Perfect drama i love all the cast i hope the viewer notice their talent

Sky3 Jan 24 2017 9:15 am This drama is like a drug to me. I know that the drama is bad, but I still watch it because of the eye-candies. Ban Ryu and Soo Yeon made it bearable at least. This is bad for my mental health.. I need to stop watching this drama altogether..

Geraldine Bello Jan 24 2017 9:15 am Before writing anything, I had read the comments below. Well, its not really that nice but i wanna speak what my heart says. I really love to watch epic dramas, after Lee Min Ho's "Faith". Watching it was like learning Korean culture & their roots & legacies. I admit, Park Seo Joon is the sole reason why I watch "Hwarang" & I don't think its wrong. I just began to admire everything about him after watching some of his drama series. We have different opinions though, but all I can say is "Hwarang" entertains me. Thanks!!!

anonymous Jan 24 2017 8:49 am I just wanna say, although the plot walks slowly, I like this drama.. And I will continously to watch..

the actors & actrees also has did a great job.. hope the rating will be decrease..

Nancy Jan 24 2017 8:09 am I don't know where the story would lead to but I don't really feel the chemistry between Aro and Seonu, even if they had the kiss scene already. And I.hope that the mad look of Aro be lessened same way as her being a crybaby. I hope they could feature meetings of Banryu and Sooyeon, it's more interesting than Aro and Seonu or maybe Seonu and the Princess or it's Aro and the King, much more chemistry. I just feel light on the King's sidekick, Pa O, funny scenes.

Goddess LeeSungKyung Jan 24 2017 7:26 am Can this drama focus more on the lives and development of the Hwarang boys instead of just highlighting the love triangle! How long can they stretch the same dilemma instead of bringing in new ideas -.- I prefer watching Banryu-Sooyeon & Hwarang training scenes to the love triangle one, they interest rest of the viewers too.

Chan Jan 24 2017 7:07 am Aro, please stop crying and being so pathetique. It is awfully annoying and stupid!!

Maria Jan 24 2017 6:49 am When I first heard about Hwarang I was excited because V was going to be a part of it. What I didn't like was that they waited until December to air this drama. In August when Love in the Moonlight and Scarlet Heart Ryeo started airing I wanted to watch Hwarang (later I found out it was a KBS drama too) as well because I wanted to see a historical drama fight. Anyway, I think that the later the drama started airing, the more the excitement of the people for this drama decreased. I was super excited when the first episode aired. I knew SeoJoon from the drama She was Pretty(I loved his role there) and I really liked his role now as Dog-Bird. Then Hyungsik is so lovely, even though I didn't see any of his previous works(I knew though he is a member of Zea). I sort of think of Hyungsik as the Bogum of Hwarang(the beautiful king that makes you watch the drama because of his looks and awesome acting). But I was a little disappointed to see the low ratings, because I believe the choice of actors is really great. The plot is somehow confusing and some things are still in the air. What is missing in this drama is the continuity of ideas. The idea of love triangle is cute. I like the way Hyungsik expresses his affection towards Aro. What I am curious about is the queen's secret or whatever she hides(I believe that Aro might be her daughter or something). There are still a lot of things that need to happen but I am so impatient to know them. Everyone is doing a great job, I can't complain about that. So after all, I started watching this drama because of V, and I continue watching it because of the actors(mainly Hyungsik). I do really hope something unexpected to happen because I think the drama is worth it.

Cherr Jan 24 2017 5:44 am The promotion for this drama was so great that it attracts me to watch it. But after episode 6, I feel like the drama is just..meh~ I can't believe the storyline is still happening in 2017. The second lead, Park Hyun Sik, overshadows the main lead. Main actress constantly gets into trouble and always need saving from either the main lead or the second lead. Main lead starts off as nobody but it turns out he is the son of someone powerful.

In this drama, I found myself enjoying the side stories compare to the main. Ban Ryu and Soo Yeon is cute together. The princess is mysterious and cold, so it is great to see her character develop into a warm person, but no.. the main actress must be a helpless girl who cries at every chance she gets. Pfft..

Valkerie Jan 24 2017 5:25 am This drama is boring! The low rating speaks for itself. Stop trying to sugar-coat and praise this drama just because you are in love with the actors.

But.. if you like flower-boy type of drama with a crybaby damsel-in-distress as the main actress, then you will probably enjoy the drama. Or probably skip the crybaby frowning main actress part and feast your eyes on other eye-candies in the drama. Go Ara, you are pretty, but A-ro character annoyed the hell out of me!

charie Jan 24 2017 2:41 am Hwarang is <3.. I love the story and the casts. <3

memo Jan 24 2017 1:37 am i love all and this series is so nice i love it but i love kingaro coule 55555 love all

rskdrama Jan 23 2017 10:44 pm here is my opinion-

Ah-Ro - too much facial expression Sun woo- too much arogance for a chap from the wild Prince - played his part, as did the other guys.

Given that all dramas need some romance, there should be. But his Ah-ro and Sun woo romance is taking too much airtime. First there is no chemistry between them, and second other than the prince being hurt this doesn't seem to lend to the story line. There is no story so far. I figured that sun-woo is also the prince in line. The real price might take the thrown in the end, but sun-woo is one of the contenders for the throne. There is going to be some blood shed and a lot of politics. But all that is story, this romance is so feeble and nothing much to the story.

Miro Jan 23 2017 8:57 pm I have no problem with the scenario of this drama, it bothers me occupancy Park Seo Joon here. I do not like the actor smile that falls short the eyes, unable to suppress his arrogance. Although here some criticize the "love triangle" I, in any case, I support the king, who in the filing of Park Hyung-Sik acts sympathetic, unlike Park Seo-Joo, to which gives positive qualities only scenario ...

and still @ L - not let the king kill the people who saw him as a king, he did this his mother ... do not know if for it to protect him, or that delaying his right to take the government ...

Saman Jan 23 2017 7:29 pm I love this drma But i didnt feel chemistry between ahro and sun woo, Ep 11 is boring for me,,

T.L Jan 23 2017 11:41 am What happened to episode 11?..

Anyways i love this drama wish you all the best hopefully everyone gets a higher rate..?????? saranghaeyeo..??

Hhhhhh Jan 23 2017 4:22 am This drama is grear and all but i feel like the whole triangle drama stuff doesn't fit. This drama should be more focused on who Seon Woo really is. Why he doesn't have parents or why he grew up like that and why the real seon woo was thrown away with his mom. And why ban ryu is treated so badly by his father and grandfather. I want him to stand up for himself. I also like he has something going on with soo ho sister. Also why the king isn't public yet all that stuff.

I feel like without the romance this drama would be great. The whole Hwarang schoom thingie is way interesting and pretty boys turning into soldiers.

marthie Jan 23 2017 1:32 am I don't know why people are criticising sun woo'so character. He is the main lead and obviously he is meant to be with aro. But I also like jidwi and I feel sorry for him. But what to do. Characters' fate is in director's hands

Me Jan 22 2017 11:17 pm the comment here made me laugh to tears. so immature.

L Jan 22 2017 5:45 pm Personally,I don't like King's character.So much people died because they saw his face.....Aro's brother as well.The King let her real brother die....

quadri Ibrahim Jan 22 2017 3:58 pm This a very interesting drama, I just hope jinheung achieve much in this drama has he has done in history

HK Jan 22 2017 12:37 pm Love the drama and all!! But seriously I want a-ro to be with the prince/king the chemistry is better. between a-ro and sun woo they are so cute as siblings not like boyfriend/girlfriend.

El Jan 22 2017 7:34 am After watching ep 9-10, it's still fun, and getting more and more interesting. I have more and more questions in my mind... Can't wait for next weeks episodes!!

And about SW-Aro-King part... Deep down we all knew that this will happen sooner or later, and the King can't be the one for Aro. Still, love the King better, but it has nothing to do with the actors. I think all of them have done a great job with their role and put so much effort to bring us an awesome series. It's not their fault that the story hasn't written in that way we would prefer. And our beloved King can have happy ending in so many other ways. There is a bunch of other aspects and storyline in this drama, just stop focusing on the love triangle. We only passed halfway, anything could happen in the rest of the drama, i definitely wouldn't say that all has been settled.

Polar Jan 22 2017 3:48 am I prefer sun woo to go with ah ro as her brother's wish. Ah Ro can't be the queen since she is half breed. Actually Ah Ro fall for Sun Woo when they met at the street. Maybe, sun woo is the real king instead of Ji Dwi. Don't criticize the actors or actresses just bcos they are not your fans. Be fair to them.

I like this drama n all the actors n actresses in this drama.

Jue Jan 22 2017 12:55 am I like this drama, I like their character, their costumes, I more like how they build their character, how they build their friendship from enemies to best friend. Don't like love triangle just want to see how Sam Maek Jong (king) took his place n show capital that he is a king for that nation. Can't wait to watch next episode.

FayMing Jan 21 2017 7:13 pm I want aro to be with the king, but i do like seon woo too lol Oh...so hard! I can see why some people don't like this drama but honestly it's the way the story is told; it gets kind of choppy at times. The actors all did great here, love the costumes, and the set. I enjoy the drama non the less. I hope people can enjoy the drama as it is...a fictional drama lol

Princess Jhen Jan 21 2017 4:29 pm I love them all...!!! I hope the ratings goes beyond 20 percent this drama is so perfect..!!!!

Moo Myung's Wife Jan 21 2017 4:23 pm I love this drama so much,,!!!! Can't wait to watch for the next epispde...

araboni Jan 21 2017 9:16 am I dont like park seo joon or park hyung sik or other guys in this hwarang drama. I dont care about love triangle in this drama. I just like the king! sam maek jong personality is very best to watch. her face when he is in anger, when he smile and or in others face. it is okey if sam maek with not end up with aro, I can give my loyalty to him hohohho. but im more like this drama if there is no kiss scene

Jc Jan 21 2017 9:12 am Some comments here are really immature comments..some said they don't like Seonu character,Aro character is annoying..and don't want to watch this drama if Aro and Seonu end up together..grow up people..this is just a drama..and some even said unless Aro end up with the king then they will like her??hahaha so funny,no wonder the rating is low bcoz of some people are just rude and immature..just go with the flow..if u people really want the drama the way u imagined it to be..why don't u all become and actor and actress instead..maybe u can do better in acting than Seonu and Aro..

George Jan 21 2017 8:40 am I like the king but I love sun woo better. To be frank I love the chemistry between a'ro and sun woo though they don't have that giggly scenes. These are only on the first 10 episode how much more if we see them later on.. I really don't know why some of the comments are not so nice in which they are pointing out seo joon as not doing his part as an actor here. Seo joon is an effective and convincing actor here.. Maybe you cannot see his worth because of his character. But please guys be nice and fair. All is fair in love. And to all the actors great job.

zaza Jan 21 2017 6:38 am my mother thinks that real seonu and king are siblings. because queen and master ahnji had scandal before. that means king ngn aro are sibling. then it end up with aro and seonu. arghhhhh. if everyone fight about aro with king or aro with seonu, then I hope aro died. it is okey, I can be with king hahahaha

Taehyung's Wife Jan 21 2017 3:19 am I totally fell in this drama... can't wait for the next episode!

Ban Ryu's Wifeu Jan 20 2017 10:13 pm I really love this drama omsghdghsghsfghdfghd! Everytime I remember this drama I can't help but to smile. I can't wait to the next ep!

kaovang Jan 20 2017 7:23 pm I agree. Why is there so much hate in Seo joon just because you all like Hyungsik more? Seo joon fits his role perfectly and if anyone was to replace his roles I don't think it would be as good. He's so talented and played his role perfectly. I ship him with aro more than the king honestly but that doesn't make me say rude and mean things about the other guy. Some viewers are just straight up rude and immature. If you don't want to watch it because it's not how you like it, then don't watch. No ones forcing you and we don't need your 2 cent comment here ranting about how much you dislike Seo joon and he sucks and blah blah blah. Suck it up . Life doesn't always go the way you want it to. The writer did a great job and the actors are all great. Stop complaining and putting other actors down for your own sake. Someone said Aro is so annoying but if she ends up with the king then she's not annoying ? Lmao ! That makes no sense . Anyways, I'm enjoying the drama ??

kim gee Jan 20 2017 3:45 pm I don't get why people hate Sun Woo, if you have SLS doesn't mean you have to hate the main lead ugh smh. They even say won't watch drama again if aro end up with sun woo while all the say they hate aro's character omg please be mature and realistic

Carola Jan 20 2017 11:18 am This series is so awesome. It's always torture to have to wait for the next installment...and I love Sun Woo. I don't know why he gets so many negative reviews. I think he is great !

A Season 2 would be nice !! Or maybe even Season 3 ??

vie Jan 20 2017 9:45 am I really love this drama cause all cast so adorable...can't wait for next episode..

gab Jan 20 2017 1:51 am the King is just sooooo omg. Please let him have a happy ending. I dont like aro though, too annoying I only watch because of Hyungsik and Ban Ryu-Soo yeon couple. Hope the rating will increase T.T, hwarang is getting better.

s Jan 19 2017 11:01 pm We want season 2 all members ( specially suzy ) for season 3. Absolutely we watched invicible youth only bcz of suzy.all of the members are like one family.it's so nice.so anyhow we want suzy and other members in season 2 to be in season 3 toooooooo....

Adiliu Jan 19 2017 10:05 pm I love this drama.. And i wish tge rating will goes beyond 20 % for sure. I love each character specially king ( hyunsk) makes my heart flutter. Thank you KBS always ?

Araa Jan 19 2017 9:58 pm I just don't get the chemistry between ahro and sunwoo. I only watch for Ban Ryu romance scene and also want to see the princess more. I love her. Meanwhile, Ahro character is just annoyed me, unless she end up with Ji dwi

Joan Jan 19 2017 8:22 pm I like this drama hopefully the rating will exceed .... like love inthe moonlight and dots... the cast is great especially my hyunsik park

Joan Jan 19 2017 8:18 pm I hope the rating will exceed , like from the past kdrama love in the moonlight and descendanr of the sun

ti amo Jan 19 2017 8:07 am idk why do you guys hate if Ah Ro ended up being with Sun Woo. First of all, Sun Woo is the main character and his chance for being with AhRo is bigger than the King's. On the other hand, I'm really sure there's a huge secret about SunWoo's past, I believe he isn't just an ordinary peasant.

PS : I never said I hate the King, personally I like him more (Hyungsik) outside of this drama, but what makes me irritated is when some of you said that you hate SunWoo's character and doesn't even want to watch the drama if AhRo ended up with him. Stop, it's really immature.

pie Jan 19 2017 7:24 am is it just me or anyone too? i was screaming everytime Ban Ryu and So Yeon onscreen, really their complicated relationship more potential for one packaging drama, Ban Ryu and So Yeon opposite characters made their love story like a GOLD, Ban Ryu character was so on point, except that i only want to follow the effort how Ji Dwi get his throne, Sun Woo mistery, bromance of hwarang warriors, hansung and yeo wool relationship, Soo Ho crushed to the Queen, the only love line that i like to watch just Ban Ryu and So Yeon, or another potential level Princess Sookmyung and Sun Woo (after i watched the river scenes), besides that all of the scenes just plain boring..

Black Rose Jan 19 2017 4:24 am @blob she is his half sister, they share the same mother. Apparently during this period incestuous relationships were pretty common in the royal family, so that they could keep their blood line pure. This is necessary as only sacred bones could rule and to be sacred bone you had to be descended of the royal family on both mother's and father's side. The Queen got with her uncle to have Sam maek Jong.

shanu Jan 19 2017 1:31 am I loveeeeee korean dramas...... I want the king and aro to end up together.Yes, I agree with Jared. The king and aro will not be together. I also will not be watching the korean drama anymore...... please........ the king and aro.... I want to watch korean drama . So, the king and aro.......

Jared Jan 18 2017 10:26 pm I am still for the king and A-Ro and am so disappointed and felt sad for the king that A-Ro confessed her love for Sun Woo...... I like Park Seo-Joon as an actor but I just hope he will be paired with the princess......coz if Sun Woo ended up with A-Ro I think I will not be watching the drama anymore..... Isn't it the king can have anyone he likes....?

blob Jan 18 2017 9:08 pm I'm a bit lost, is the Princess, Sam mekjongs half sister or something?? I hope not coz that'll be creepy

Mimi Cabance Jan 18 2017 7:52 pm I can't wait to watch the next episode 11... I love it....

Mimi Cabance Jan 18 2017 7:49 pm I Love Hwarang.. Im always excited to watch Hwarang...

bless Jan 18 2017 5:53 pm @kwonfire....I like park yung sik and ara loveteam ...I feel the chemistry for both ..I like park seo joon and the princess loveteam...and do ji han and lee da in...and I hope kim tae yung has loveteam....

KwonFire Jan 18 2017 11:04 am I dont get it why many of you didnt like park seo joon and ship the king with ah ro. I mean is it just me who really love and hope sun woo and ah ro in the end?? Park seo joon acting here is very good, i love it. He really take care of ah ro for the sake of the realsun woo too. It really touched me. And i dont hate king. He is very good tho and melt me with his act. I love psj and phs both in this drama. And i ship sunwoo with ah ro more. But i just dont like ah ro act like she always cry, mad towards sun woo a lot, etc. That annoys me. I cant see the love from ah ro too sun woo, but i can see sun woo deep feeling to ah ro. Hoping that both chemistry in the next episode will be more interesting.

AND BTW i curious with that polio man too! woowww i looking forward to this next episode <3

Glen Jan 18 2017 10:36 am King and Ahro have a great chemistry. I dont like the fake Sun Woo.

uajanz Jan 18 2017 8:39 am Idk why everyone says Park Seo Joon doesn't fit this role...? I think his face fits it perfectly tho. His cold but clumsy attitude, his warm gaze towards Ah Ro and the real Sun Woo, and all, I think he nailed it. I really can't think of anyone else playing this role. Only Park Seo Joon.

Lady Jan 18 2017 8:32 am Ah Ro and Sun Woo for lifeeeee!!!!! I shipped the king with princess sookmyung. I really don't see the chemistry between Ah Ro and the king since the very first beginning while Sun Woo's love towards Ah Ro is soo pure eventho he's her unbiological brother.. just my opinion!

Chan Jan 18 2017 8:16 am Aro's helpless and weak character coupled with endless crying through the first ten episodes is getting to the viewer's nerves. The authors are over prolonging the weakness of this peasant girl blinded by puppy love which is forbidden, it is very annoying. There needs to be turning points in which she will emerged from being blinded and see beyond being 'rejected' at the moment. She needs play an important role in the shaping of the Silla dynasty's future king's future rather than cry endlessly during every episode. Not all women want her to like Seonu. Some woman are for the King. A dilemma in which she finds herself falling with the King would be more interesting than endless harping over Seonu.

Nancy Jan 18 2017 8:07 am Now ep 10 is back on the ratings game, but I like the King and Ahro together coz they make a good chemistry than her and Seonu. Hyunsik is better now in acting and Minho, love them. I couldn't feel any emotions in Seojun's acting, I hope it improve and so as Ara who always looks worrisome abd mad.

Hwarang Jan 18 2017 7:33 am Usually the ones fight for throne are siblings. Maybe Hwi Kyung is one of queen Jiso's brother from same father different mom. Just my guessing .... if Moo Myung happen to be his son, that makes him cousin with the king .. lol.Even more complicated. I think Moo Myung definitely part of royal family but the legitimate king still Ji Dwi until the end ( at least how that written in Korean history)

Hyeon Jan 18 2017 4:44 am @raw, yes i'm curious too.. there is a connection between Hwi Kyung ( man with polio) and Moo Myung. Hwi Kyung is one of royal family, but he can't be a king. I just guess that Moo Myung is his descendant. It'll more interesting..

Raw Jan 18 2017 3:49 am Is there anyone besides me is curious about the real identity of Moo Myung??and who is the guy with polio ..he said that he could be the King .....and they didn't allow him because of his illness... Then what is his connection to Moo Myung ? Then why Moo Myung's mom told Woo Reuk to not name the child? Then why is Moo Myung Be the Child who must remain hidden??!!! Sorry I just wanted to ask this because its really hard to contain !

herfi Jan 18 2017 1:29 am Park seo jon doesn't fit at all with his role. His poker face can't express charisma and energy as a warrior. And Ah Ro, her expression makes me tired, she always looks worry, too much thinking and confusing. Yet I can't see climax of the story.

The entertaining things is only when camera goes to the King and another Hwarang

Thilini Jan 17 2017 11:57 pm I want the king to get the girl. He realy likes Ah ro. Plz plz get them together.

Bboo Jan 17 2017 11:29 pm Since this is preproduction drama, the writer can't alter the story / the ending to the viewers' liking . I don't ship Aro and fake bro since the beginning , think the the king has pure chemistry with her but I will just enjoy the drama for now, the handsome king will have to mature and focus on his throne , his heart will be broken but the country needs him. I think that will be better for the rest of the episodes ..... after all, this drama is pretty entertaining and many cute / funny moments. The rest of supporting casts are all well rounded.

Ero Jan 17 2017 10:12 pm If it must satisfied all fans, then A-Ro should date both of them. I mean, it's all scripted, guys! Just watch it and support them till the end.

kaovang Jan 17 2017 10:05 pm YASSS!!! FINALLY!!! Seo Joon And Aro are so cute together! Love them ! Hope the Writer keeps them together !!! <3

Alex Jan 17 2017 9:55 pm This drama really captured my attention from the beginning because of the leads. From the first episode onwards the drama really did get interesting. Ah ro s attention towards her brother is soon to evolve out of love and she will definitely in the end be with him but still there's a small ray of Hope that she gives her heart to the king.His love for has far chemistry Andy would like it if sun woo remained as a loveble so called brother.ahhhhh please let ah or and ji dwi be together !

Ja Jan 17 2017 9:36 pm I am still hoping that A-Ro will choose the second lead, Sam Maek Jong/Ji Dwi Rang,....I like their chemistry more than Sun Woo and A-Ro.. I like Sun Woo but I hope he will be paired with the princess... I will enjoy the drama more if it will lead to this set up...

Bon Jan 17 2017 6:50 pm Not watching ep 10, but I saw the glimpse at the end. Disgusting. It doesn't matter now A Ro knew that MM isn't her brother but still. If the story will ship these two to be together, I'm done. Ew.

Wendy Jan 17 2017 6:11 pm Wow ep 10 total SHOCKER DOG-BIRD (fake sun woo ) kisses his fake sister (Ah ro) #awkard but sweet . Yeah they would make a great couple and all , but my poor KING , it sucks to see a handsome guy's heart broken, cause we all know in the end what's going to happen .No l love both guys but Ah ro can only be with one .SAD JUST SAD

pula Jan 17 2017 4:16 pm An interesting drama (so far - 9 episodes) and I like the characters. I hope Ah Ro will be with Sam Maek Jong/Ji Dwi Rang - fingers crossed :] (please screenwriters :)). Their feeling (or his to her) more speaks to me and I think that their chemistry is better than AhRo and Sun Woo.

Heol Jan 17 2017 3:31 pm Ok so ep 10 was much better! I'm seriously in love with ban ryu and soo yeon ahh! Also I'm glad the ah ro knows the King's identity now. I know that the King is the second lead but...i just can't help shipping him with ah ro. I seriously think that their chemistry is much better than her and moo myung (i love moo myung as a character tho) ^^. Hopefully the story keeps progressing like this...so far its been kind of slow. Btw ahhh my taehyungie!!! What a cutie, he's doing such a great job <3. Hwarang cast FIGHTING!

Hyeon Jan 17 2017 11:22 am I love Park Seo Joon... ?

I like all Hwarang, but I like Sun Woo Rang from 1st episode. His character is more interesting..

Alex Jan 17 2017 9:33 am Although the cast is more than fine, don't know why they kept insisting with this love triangle and maybe incest-relationship which from what I read from some rumors SunWoo might be the Queens son which she gave away (It might be an interesting turn if they do it but so complicated for only 10 episodes remaining). Also the first 20 min from episode 9 where a let down because of all that crying scene. I truly hope the ratings will go up because the OST used so far are awesome! Park Hyung-Sik makes a great job at interpreting the King!!

herfi Jan 17 2017 8:57 am The second lead has strong character and charisma than first lead .

hjlee Jan 17 2017 8:55 am Park seo jun really doesn't fit with his role. His poker face most suitable for modern drama such as he was pretty and witch romance. I can't feel warrior energy from him.

Worry face and too much thinking character of female lead really tiring.

The rest actors and actresses act well and fit for this drama. They who make me still watch till now.

Nancy Jan 17 2017 8:07 am 9th episode is a bit boring, I'm waiting for their dance but it's good that Princess Sookmyung appeared already, so she can be with Seonu since their first meeting is kinda significant so that MasterJidwi is for Ahro, hahaha, I like their chemistry than with Seonu. I definitely agree with you @Rosel

Rosel Jan 17 2017 7:46 am I want the King (Sam Maek Jong) and Ah Ro to end up together <3

DUA19 Jan 17 2017 4:37 am I love this drama and every episode since I really don't want to miss anything haha but what is funny is how everyone is focused on the love and I feel like I am the only one thinking about sun woo's true Identity even though I think I already know since I'm always right about what happens at the end But the real reason why I watch is because of my king......?yes I'm

guilty

Like how can he be soooo beautiful

KSHnJJHForever Jan 16 2017 11:53 pm I m in love with ah ro and sun woo. I m loving their relationship development.. Whereas the king acts childish, he has to regain his position as king. But instead of working towards it, he is grumpy n follows ah ro who isn't interested in him. I liked princess sook myung interaction with sun woo. I m liking her.. But I wud ship for ah ro and sun woo according to ah ro's brother's wish and ah ro cannot be with king coz he was the reason of murder of ah ro's brother n his mother only destroyed ah ro's family.. i like the story till now.. Park Seo-joon and Go ara fighting!!

richadiana kartakusuma Jan 16 2017 10:26 pm the story is mediocre, cliche, yet be comfortable to see because there was a handsome prince and graceful as Park Hyung-Sik - gambate

HwarangLover Jan 16 2017 8:57 pm Actually I was pretty disappointed with this episode so far. It didn't meet my expectations and I was such hyped up about this drama's episodes. I really ship Ji Dwi and Ah Ro but she's probably if not definitely will end up with SunWoo. I think that the love triangle makes much more sense if Ji Dwi and Ahro end up together because you can see the sparks coming through bit by bit but Ah ro is still so connected to her brother. She's just brushing Ji Dwi off her shoulders and pushing him back and focusing more on SunWoo. Personally I don't ship them even if i force myself to think they will work I just can't. I hope to see more of AhRo focusing on Ji Dwi's love interest in her than Sun Woo. Also I think this drama should incorporate more of the historic info into the drama because it is a historic drama. It focuses more on the love triangle which I like but it should talk or show more of the history behind the Silla era. I would like to see Sooyeon and Ban Ryu's love branching out but eventually SooHo will find out and try to kill Ban Ryu. I think that Soo Yeon's love letters are actually calming BAn Ryu's anger side and showing his kindness and warmth side. I also agree with some of the people who said they skipped alot and so did i. I was bored most of the time and the rest I was just blushing and laughing hysterically and smiling so hard because of Ji Dwi's cuteness and his face is just uhhhhhh XD. Second lead syndrome anyone? Still? Just me? okay then

Levitas Jan 16 2017 4:56 pm Episode 9 wasn't the most entertaining but it wasn't the worst since it was pretty much an extension from episode 8. Episode 10 will be the same.

I understand that Ah Ro is very emotional considering the plot unraveling but I swear I can hear her crying even after I finished watching. No doubt from the preview, she's going to be crying a lot more.

I liked the love triangle when it was still light-hearted and funny but of course that has to end with the two lead characters caught up in their own trials. I'm still iffy on Princess Sook Myung but I hope she is a strong character where Ah Ro isn't. I liked Ah Ro in the beginning because she was supposed to be strong-headed but now, not so much. I'll probably root for the princess, despite her "holier than thou" attitude if Ah Ro doesn't get herself together and do something other than play hard-to-get with Ji Dwi. I like the Sunwoo and Princess interaction but it'll never work out. Same with Ah Ro and the King....(unless she becomes a concubine or something which would not happen).

Ah, Hansung...you make me laugh whenever you get screentime. My mom finds you simply adorable. Can't wait to see your serious storyline! Ban Ryu and Sooho, good luck being future brother-in-laws! Haha!

soo Jan 16 2017 3:38 pm honestly ep 9 was kind of boring xD. I found myself skipping a lot of it. I wish that this drama focused more on hwarang than the complicated love triangle tbh... and omg i mean i love ah ro but like...its getting to the point where it seems like she's obsessed with her brother and its kind of annoying ._. . I think ah ro has way better chemistry with the King...i feel so bad for him omg. But anyway, I'm hoping that ep 10 its better. I had really high hopes for this drama but it's not really living up to my expectations :( . oh well i will continue to watch^^ . Hwarang cast fighting!! OH and can i say that ban ryu and soo yeon are THE CUTEST THING EVER? Agh my heart! I like them way better than the main couple >_< lolol.

Bon Jan 16 2017 2:15 pm Nor Ji Dwi or MM, A Ro doesn't have chemistry with both. Although I'm hoping she and Ji Dwi will have a stronger chemistry later on. A ro character is quite unattractive at the moment. Like keep thinking of her "brother" to the point that she's so obsessed with him. I hope she'll end up with Ji dwi and MM with princess mookyung.

Tartan Girl Jan 16 2017 11:32 am first 15-minutes was already a bore so i decided not to watch..sorry it's not as good as i was led to believe.

myxblush Jan 16 2017 11:31 am Ep. 9 was boring but I'm hoping more interactions with MM and Princess Sookmyung (she seems so badass). I ship those two! I don't care if AR ends up with the King.

El Jan 16 2017 11:20 am I genuinely loove this drama. It's entertaining and funny, also love the modernish things, love the songs and of course, all the characters (especially the Soo Ho-Ban Ryu pairing :'D). But no matter how much I love this drama, I agree with those of you, who says that the story should more focus on the Hwarangs (at least the 5/6 of them) and put aside the love triangle a bit. Love triangle is so average in kdramas, but Hwarang's story is a unique choice. After watching the promo of the 9th and 10th eps, should I be worried that it'll become more serious?? Please don't do that to me again, plíííz! It was enough once with Moon Lovers. I hope I just overreacted since I haven't seen the 9th ep yet. Can't wait for the next episodes! <3

wlnsrw Jan 16 2017 10:56 am Honestly, I'm a bit boring while watching this drama because of the love triangle story. love triangle, complicated four square love, I already get sick of that kind of story. I think it will be more fun if the story is more focused on the friendship, the struggle to become hwarang and save the nation, and no complicated love story. Afterall, I'm still enjoying this drama, I love all the characters also the actors and actresses who play in Hwarang ?

jcwsgal Jan 16 2017 4:58 am i'm here for BanRyu and Hansung <3 Do Jihan is really manly and his character matches with him... Taehyung is super innocent and cute af <3 Hwarang hwaiting and looking forward to more episodes <3

Saeng Jan 15 2017 9:13 pm This would've been x10000 better if it wasn't a period drama. A romcom with this cast would be THE BOMB.

Jia Jan 15 2017 9:11 pm I honestly feel disappointed on the story. I had high expectations as it had an amazing cast. With Go Ara, Park Hyung Sik and Park Seo Joon being the leads I thought this can never get better but the story is just ugh and I think they were pushing the love triangle too much. It would've been better if they focused more on the hwarangs than the love story, it should've been an icing on the cake and not the center of this series.

Rhino Jan 15 2017 8:17 pm Saw Park Young-Sil, seem as a familiar face. And i just realize that he is Kim Chang Wan who sang Meaning of You with IU. What a great talent from an old man...

kdrama addict Jan 15 2017 5:58 am I love this series. I can't choose between the king and Moo Myung. They both look good with Ah Ro. I so love Park Seo Joon here.He looks cool in his costumes.

VHW Jan 15 2017 12:18 am I think Aro will end up with moo myung because she always doubt whether he was her brother[in fact now she knows he is not.] and her worries shows love for the man she likes than love for her brother.King is kinda forcing her to love him.OH GOD!! this drama has even drew my sleep away.I am waiting till Tuesday impatiently!!!! To see all the handsome men like Moo Myung, SuHo,Banryu and Sang Rang.Guys keep it up!!!Even though your ratings are low now,it could change in the future.And most people like this drama.I cheer for u!!!!!

Nate Jan 14 2017 10:49 pm I think koreans prefer to watch a diferent type of drama on mondays and tuesdays,like medical dramas - see the ratings of Romantic Doctor, Teacher Kim that is aired at the very same time But this drama is cool and fresh I like it Worth to watch

Ishyang Jan 14 2017 9:17 am i love the king in waiting and i hope it is he and Ah Ro who would be together in the end... I cant understand why the rating is low but i'm loving the series... The hwarangs carry their acting role very well... And pleae, why is the queen so selfish...

Byulbit Jan 14 2017 7:32 am OMG I love this drama! Especially BanRyu x SooYeon couple XDDD

Pinkrose Jan 14 2017 7:16 am Why this drama has low ratings :,( . Of most of korean dramas, this is the only drama for me enjoying to watch xD can't wait for ep9. This drama meets with my taste because it has this japanese vibe otome thingy, funny and yeah beautiful guys too hahha. It doesn't have this heavy emotional because the funny scene is always there which doesn't make me bored and the castings suits with the characters. Can't stop thinking of ban ryu and the king ? I don't watch alot of korean drama but if I do, mostly watched half of the story and stop because to much of emotional and tense scene ? . The relationship between the characters is interesting and good. I know there won't be a chances for oraeboni with ah ro to be in relationship, but they have strong brother sister relationship because oraeboni looks more like her brother than for a lover. Possibility he will be with the princess ?, well main character needs their happy ending too haha. I don't mind if the story is twisted. The ost is great too and I'm still trying to remember all their names :/ Sorry for my long ass review haha.

kittyweese Jan 14 2017 4:37 am Enjoying the drama so far. Love the bromance and the chemistry between Ah Ro and Ji Dwi. Dislike Moo Myung character. Writer and director too cruel to make Ah Ro and JD meet first, share the first kiss, and have such strong chemistry if they are going to force her to go with MM. No chemistry at all between those two. Hoping the story takes a twist and MM is the rightful King and JD younger brother. Love the budding romance between Ban Ryu and Seo Yoon, but may not be enough to keep me interested if the story keeps pushing Ah Ro and Mo Myung together...Don't want to watch a show that will break my heart...

Joon Jan 14 2017 3:28 am I like this drama much.. the story is very good and all players have good acting. Why the rating is so slow? It's good drama anyway!

The king Sam Maek Jong is the most handsome in Hwarang, Ban Ryu is the most cool man in Hwarang,

But, I like Moo Myung's character... wild but actualy he's gentle, loyal, hope he'll be happy !!! I like Park Seo Joon ..

vihangi Jan 14 2017 2:12 am wow.. very interesting drama ..hwarang fighting... jidwi, sooho, hansung are best. I hope ratings will go up. saranghae hwarang.. sam meak joon,son woo,do jihan ,aro,soo ho,hansung,yeo wool ...

Why? Jan 14 2017 12:36 am Why the ratings is sooooo low? T.T it's a good drama anyway...

Rose Jan 13 2017 4:46 am I love this drama very much! Director, Please let Aro and Moomyung the lovers till end, &not the king.

Ana Jan 13 2017 3:41 am OMO ! seriously loving the bromance !!! more plssss !!!! esp PHS and PSJ !!!!! but do min ho need to be with the queen ????!!!!!!

Anne Jan 13 2017 3:40 am guyss!! what is the name of the ost at the end of ep 5 ???? someone plsss !!!

Jovie Jan 13 2017 3:08 am What's happening with the survey? I really love it, I guess we don't have same taste in dramas.

Bon Jan 13 2017 2:25 am Why do I get a feeling that "oraboni" will be with princess sookmyung, and the prince will be with A Ro, and I'm perfectly happy.

myxblush Jan 11 2017 11:27 pm OMG! I should of patiently waited for more episodes to air and now I'm gonna suffer K-dramas side effects!!

Carola Jan 11 2017 3:52 pm Love this series ! 8 parts so far and never boring. I hope it will continue like this. Can't wait for the next installment !

Love, love it !!!!!

someone Jan 11 2017 2:41 pm Guys, SMJ is totally not going to end up with Aro. He is a Sacred Bone and the future king, which means he can't marry a half-breed. Aro ending up with Moomyung is much more realistic, since she found out he isn't her brother anyway. I'm much more invested in the king's journey to the throne rather than his romance with Aro, which I find extremely unappealing. They don't match at all, SMJ grew up with the mindset of a high-born, he believes he can and should have his way, and can be quite forceful and imposing, because that was how he was raised and that's how the rank system in Silla was. Aro is quite spunky for a female lead, she is strong-willed and fierce, and definitely not willing to be submissive towards her lover. In that sense, Moomyung is more fitting, since he is much more gentle and less imposing (which has to do with his lower upbringing), and that is why Aro is drawn towards him, even though the king was much more open and obvious about his feelings.

shanu Jan 11 2017 9:35 am I love hwarang.finally I like aro marry the king and moo myung to be her brother. Can you do it for your fans. Please....... I love aro and king soooooo much.please..... aro must marry the king....... please.......??????????......

zerah Jan 11 2017 9:05 am Such in love with this drama! I started already to re watch it, because I like it so much! I wonder again and again : what the heck is with this poor rating for such gorgeous, wonderful, nice and special kdrama?

Congratulations to all the actors and actresses! Wonderful job!

Nancy Jan 11 2017 8:13 am Cute ep 8, love the King and Aro, but I think if he's not for Aro, he can't be possibly Aro's half brother since his mom the Queen and Aro's father had a past, and they had a kiss so it would be awkward. But I'm rooting for their loveteam and also Banryu and Sooyeon, they made me shuddered, so cute. I'm 2aiting for other loveteams to surface since this drama are full of good-looking guys. And lastly, love their dance ?

dutches Jan 11 2017 6:43 am Omo! I love the main lead! Hes so handsome and acts so well! But i also love the king. Oh my poor heart. :-( Nevertheless ds drama is addicting! 8s so cool! :-)

gkxxx Jan 11 2017 5:41 am The King is so pretty! I'm rooting for him to be the main male lead ♥

Sheen Shan Jan 11 2017 4:53 am Omg am totally loving the sideline of Soo yeon and Ban Ryu! Can't wait for more screen time for this couple! I'm shipping them so hard!

SOUSSou Jan 11 2017 4:19 am I can't stop thinking about Moo Myung is the king but how?

Goddess LeeSungKyung Jan 11 2017 12:03 am the episodes are getting better every week. I am looking forward to watching romance blossom between Banryu and SooHo's sister instead of the main leads

Hana Jan 10 2017 8:37 pm Hwarangggg..I really love this drama..I can't wait to watch the next ep..I want Ah ro to be with Moo Myung but in the same time I like the chemistry between Ah Ro and the king..their interaction always make my heart flutters..Yeah and I hope that the viewer rating for this drama will increase..:)

Mir Jan 10 2017 6:45 pm I really love this drama!! but not like the main couple or triangle i am more interested in the side Sooyeon and Banryu!! the first appearance of them together in ep 7 got me like - KYAH

Delia Jan 10 2017 12:00 pm I love this drama !!! It's my 1st historical Korean Drama for me..I've watch 9 episodes.. it's more interesting! I can't wait for next episode!

I love the actors and actresses, they're good looking and good in acting. I like all 6 hwarang, ah ro, also soo yeon Until ep.9, ah ro is lucky girl (dog bird & king love her), i ship her with her fake brother, but i dont want the king feel broken. I just want they're happy.. hahaha.. But now i'm more concern about ban ryu and soo yeon... they're cute couple... can't wait watch their scenes in next episode! Ban Ryu & Soo Yeon...

LanKay Jan 10 2017 8:19 am Why the queen doesn't seem like a queen to me? She's more like a greedy teenager that gets jealous all the time. But i like the rest of the cast! I even like it when master wi hwarang adores sun woo lol i feel you ahjussi

Nancy Jan 10 2017 8:14 am @Paula I agree with you, there's more chemistry with Aro and the King than her so-called brother. Love this drama, full of good-looking guys and beautiful girls. I hope the ratings go up but it doesn't matter as long as I love watching it.

Aly Jan 10 2017 5:31 am Omo! T_T How come that this drama had low ratings in Korea?? Its a good and funny drama. I patiently wait for the upcoming episode. I'm just sad that Korean viewers gave it low ratings.

Kookie Jan 10 2017 3:52 am I really love this drama ! For me it's the best korean drama , and all the cast is so handsome/Beautiful Patiently waiting for upcoming episodes ! <3

Jannah Jan 09 2017 10:31 pm The Best Korean Drama that I watched. The cast so hot and chraming <3I can't wait for the upcoming episodes oppa

Paula Jan 09 2017 1:20 pm I love Hwarang! The best korean drama/romantic series ever! All the casts' acting are very effective. But, I JUST REALLY HOPE that A-ro and THE KING will become the real couple at the end of this series. Sorry, Moo Myung... I like you as being -ro's big brother. I really really just like the chemistry between A-ro and the king. Hwarang, Ji Dwi and A-ro Love Team...FIGHTING!!!!

Jessa Mae Fallarcon Jan 09 2017 6:17 am So excited for the upcoming episodes! This Drama gets more interesting and makes me update for more. Thanks for the Director and Producers who did this drama! This also makes me love KDrama more!! Kamsahamnida!! Hwaiting! ❤❤❤?????

Jessa Mae Fallarcon Jan 09 2017 6:09 am Wiieee~ Really love this Drama!! I can't wait for the upcoming episodes.. Fighting guys!!! ???????

Denise Jan 08 2017 7:29 pm Whoa ! All handsome guys together in one kdrama! Can't wish for more, i'm inlove with this serie.

I love it because it's played in a historical line, the dresses, the structure, a kind, a queen, warriors, everything is great. And ofcourse a love story !

Really a great story-line, good actors and actrices. I will recommend it to all my friends :)

Alondra Jan 08 2017 1:38 pm My first Korean Drama show and THE BEST.

Bella Jan 08 2017 8:55 am I love this drama. I have already rewatched all of the episodes. This is the best drama I have watched so far, and I have watched so many. The cast is so good. I love them all!!!

M Jan 08 2017 5:06 am I love Hwarang

Hyeon Jan 08 2017 4:56 am I like this drama, all the players (actors and actresses) very well portray their characters. In this drama until ep.6, i still like Moo Myung / Sun Woo. I think he has a strong character among other hwarang, including the king. And talk about love, he did not know how to show his feelings, that's what makes him funny character. I like when Moo Myung smiling/laugh because he rarely laughed, too cold and rough. Until ep.6, in my opinion, the chemistry between Park Seo Joon and Go Ara here is more visible. Their acting is very good. I ship Moo Myung and A Ro together, they're sweet couple. Love between brother and sister and ended up as lovers. I like the king, but he was too imposing his love. It does not look like a sincere love. Can'wait next episode! I really love this film! I want to know, who is Moo Myung true identity.

Nasrin Jan 08 2017 4:50 am I love hwarang

stephany Jan 07 2017 4:58 am I really love these korean drama i love the all of cast of hwarang all of them is a good actor and actress

witch YeonHee Jan 07 2017 4:48 am [Spoiler alert]

To be honest, the first five episodes are boring to me, but it was full of important information we need to know about each character and what the kingdom is all about. At episode 6, it gets more interesting since the Hwarang has officially started. So to whoever that didn't like boring part, you could skip to episode 6, but you will be confused to who the characters are and why they are the way they are. I'm Myung moo and Aro shipper since i can see Myung's genuine concern towards Aro while the King seems like he's trying to force Aro into loving him or something.

HBC Jan 07 2017 3:35 am wahhh.. Salute Hwarang!!!! the best drama ever for me... Hyungsik ahh why u so cute and handsome now.. ahh im falling in love with u.. v ah kawaii!!! Btw good acting guys V,Hyungsik,Jihan,Minho,Seojun and others also... A big love for hwarang!!!! Saranghae Hwarang!!! Fighting!! I really king sam maek jong and aro can be together as a couple in Hwarang..

V Jan 06 2017 8:23 pm I had my hopes up with the King and Aro being together bc Princess Sookmyung and King Jinheung are siblings so there won't be any loveline between them. Unfortunately, I read that in history, they are indeed both half-siblings AND lovers. Well, not really "lovers" since there's no romance involved, they are just husband and wife. Princess Sookmyung had an affair with Lee Hwarang ( a character which I'm not sure if he's included in this series.) While reading about Lee Hwarang I was kinda hoping that he'll be actually Moo Myung tbh (We all know moo myung's identity is a secret) but it's a bit of a blur cos Moo Myung is in love with Aro and Lee Hwarang apparently should be in love with Sookmyung.

Emeraude Jan 06 2017 11:44 am its really nice drama and it has a nice background songs.The story and the cast are very good! But I don't why, this serie has less than 10% rating... Before watching, ı have any idea who is minho, l like his role, he is cool and has very cut smile.

Meli Jan 05 2017 1:32 pm love itttttt!!!!! Can't wait for the new ep?

yoora Jan 05 2017 12:54 am So its Sooho and the Queen huh? Idk about you guys but I'm iffy about their relationship. The fact that she's his roomate's mother just has me recoiling every time. And I'm still on the fence about her character. She's not exactly the antagonist but like still...i just don't like her

dianne Jan 05 2017 12:30 am Gosh this is the 2nd time im getting second lead syndrome... first time is when i watched cheese in the trap... But in the drama i instantly made up my mind to ship hong seol with baek inho, although i know they wont end up together... But in this drama i cannot choose whether i should ship aro with moo myung or the king... maybe because it's only ep 6.

First time i watched this i instantly fell in love with the king, but after watching ep 5 i decided to ship aro with moo myung... But after watching the ending of ep 6, the king snatched my heart again... Park Hyungsik delivered his character really well, his expression looks very sincere and real.

actually all the cast are brilliant, nobody is left behind... Even BTS' V did good even though this is his debut. I just wish that his character would grow stronger and more mature because if he keeps up with this childish, innocent traits, he will surely die in later episodes... And although im not a fan of BTS, i would love if he gets more screentime and to see his character getting developed since everybody else has already begin to progress..

Overall i love this drama to bits and the last time I felt this way was when I watched Reply 1988. y'all who watched the drama know how lovely that drama is. Also you guys should watch 1 Night 2 Days hwarang ep... Park Seojun Is so funny like i fell in love with him after watching that show lol

wailofabanshee Jan 04 2017 11:59 pm I think it's funny how most of international fans watch this drama to see their idols (Minho or Taehyung), but ended up actually enjoying the whole drama. I, too, begin to watch this drama to see Minho but ended up getting attached to the whole drama. The story and the cast are so good! I just don't get why they have less than 10% rating... One more thing, why are people saying Go Ara's chemistry with Park Hyungsik is better than with Park Seojun? I think their chemistry isn't showing yet because they're still clueless with their feelings with each other and Go Ara's character still wants to think of Sunwoo as his brother. I believe in upcoming episodes, their chemistry will grow and finally we will have that dilemma we want.

Lizzie Jan 04 2017 10:32 pm I, thing that maek sik do have better chemistry with a ro, it would be nice that the king keep the girl but they finish filming so we know the end. but i am really curious about why they got 14th place

lolo.mjxp Jan 04 2017 10:18 pm I always ship the leads but i just cant see the chemistry or possibility between go ara and seo joon. ji dwi and her would be more suitable. and i want Taehyung to have more parts i feel like he can do really well hes just not getting any parts to really bring his acting out :(. Hwarang Hwaiting!

LaLee Jan 04 2017 7:28 pm Park Seo Joon! Go Ah Ra!!! Fighting!!! Hope the scriptwriter/editor will follow your story line!!! Come on guys give these 2 a chance to have their love story...remember Park Seo Joon character's origin is also mysterious... he maybe a true royal blood like the rest....

Bboo Jan 04 2017 11:14 am Omg, the king. Anyone here rooting for the king ? I know lots of Tae and Minho fans here but the king steals the show. ❤️PYS fighting ??

Lairlyne Jan 04 2017 11:06 am I wonder why they are on the 18th and 16th when the drama is so good.. It has a nice story with good actors and actresses. I've been waiting for the other episodes.. :)

MuMey Jan 04 2017 9:38 am Please make this one to 200 episodes ??? dont make it like Scarlet Heart Ryeo.. ??? ?? please please please ...

Trish Jan 04 2017 9:11 am @Kao hmmm i don't think it's because of the actor that plays the king that makes fans want Maekjong and Aro to end up with each other. Truthfully, they do have better chemistry and they did meet first, right (weak reason but still, i think Maekjong did fall in love with her first).

Princess Jan 04 2017 9:07 am Excellent actor Park Seo Joon. I love you in She Was Pretty and all your other dramas. I am sure you will not disappoint us in Hwarang. Fighting!!

Trish Jan 04 2017 9:06 am Omgee, i just finished ep 6 and the young king, Sam Maek Jong, stole my heart in the last scene. The way he sounded so broken and confused at how Aro was making him feel gave me all sorts of feelings. Park Hyungsik delivered his character in that scene so well...

Anyways, I agree that Sunwoo doesn't have chemistry with Aro and should end up with Princess Sookmyung (idek why i ship them when they don't even have a scene together yet). Maekjong and Aro seem to be more compatible. Hopefullly Aro falls out of love somehow with Sunwoo but as this is the kdrama world, that's near impossible.

I'm really looking forward to Banryu and Sooyeon's love story. It seems Banryu already knows her as he looked at her while they were walking and greeting people. But then again, why tf would you fight her brother if you're interested in her. Stupid Banryu.

Sheila Jan 04 2017 8:27 am I prefer ah ro with Sam maek jong/ji dwi than with her fake brother sun woo. I feel she has way more chemistry with the young king.

Btw, sun woo has already exposed himself to the world as her brother, even if it is later revealed that he is not, I don't think it's possible for them to be together without raising a huge outrage in the society. Her father won't even let it happen.

Fighting! Jan 04 2017 8:23 am Wait so after Episode 20 there's not gonna be anymore Hwarang not even a next season?? DAMN IT I really love this Drama Tae led me here now I have fallen in love with all the characters and the story-line I can't get enough of it. HWARANG FIGHTING!!

Yes Jan 04 2017 7:23 am what is the relationship between An Ji-gong and Queen Jiso? can anyone explain to me??

Valerian Jan 04 2017 5:52 am @kemonomimi, you are not the only one who is anticipating Seo Ye Ji's character! But I don't want her to be with Park Seo Joon. Let her have a loveline with someone else other than Park Seo Joon.

And @rin, I like your analysis on Ban Ryu's character. I think he has potential and even though he is a jerk, I can't help but feeling like giving him a hug because he looks like someone who needs more love.

On a side note, I am never and not even a fan of BTS V, but for this drama, I find myself wanting to see Han Sung and Yeo Wool more compare to the main, Sun Woo and Ah-Ro.. I don't really enjoy the loveline that they put here. Faked bro and sister.. I don't know. Still doesn't seem right to me.

Neo Jan 04 2017 1:54 am It's really a heart touching drama!love it.

Graze Li Jan 04 2017 1:27 am Omo! I commented thinking we are still in 2016. Hahaha.

Graze Li Jan 04 2017 12:42 am I have also been anticipating and waiting for this drama. I've heard of this some time in November last year right after She Was Pretty ended. Back then, I was kinda interested of this drama because of Park Seo Joon and Kim Yushin, a hwarang in the drama the Great Queen Seondeok. When I started watching this, I didn't really have so much expectations. But as the story progresses, it gets better, it's more engaging and it makes me expect so much from it. It makes me curious and think about what's gonna happen next or what's the mystery behind the main lead's (Seojoon) character. I hope this drama gets even more better. Hwarang, Aja! Fighting!

kemonomimi Jan 04 2017 12:32 am This is sad. Am I the only one who ships Seo Ye Ji and Park Seo Joon?

Ppppp Jan 04 2017 12:23 am It's a nice things I don't expecting so much and it turns out to be really good. Watching this makes me Park Hyung Sik's fan. He really good here

awalia Jan 04 2017 12:00 am After watched ep 6, i'm afraid that ah ro will end up with sam mek jong, like NOOOO. I actually don't really like his character even tho he's a nice guy. But he stole the kiss :( can sun woo get the girl please after all the bitterness he got in his past.

Emily Jan 03 2017 11:18 pm I've been anticipating this drama since they announced it and so far, I've been disappointed with how they edited every episodes. There were scenes that can be taken out. Ban Ryu's and Soo Ho's wingmen get more screentime that the main casts. The flow of the story is slow too. :( This is just my opinion tho. I still love this drama. ??

Shine Jan 03 2017 10:59 pm I've been anticipating this drama since October and so far, I've been disappointed with how they edited the scenes every episode. :3 There were lots of scenes that can be taken out and Ban Ryu's and Soo Ho's wingmen get a lot of screentime than the other main casts. :( This is just my opinion tho. I still love this show ??

rin Jan 03 2017 10:09 pm @joew yes omg same! No one's talking much about him but I think Do Jihan acts pretty well and has potential to become a great actor. I was drawn to Ban Ryu's character from the moment I saw him. That moment with him and his two dads in ep 4(?) really dispelled my impression of him being just a jerk who looks down to those that are of lower status than him. That, to me, was AMAZING acting. Ban Ryu is a complex character and I think that there's more to him. More layers. More than what inititally meets the eye. Like, he's not just a cold bad boy. Maybe, because he was raised by two power-hungry fathers (I'm mainly talking about that stepfather omg I hate him so much), he'd been taught nothing but how to gain power and maintain it. Maybe his icy exterior is some sort of defence mechanism. When he was talking to Sooho in ep 6 I think we all saw him break a bit when the latter asked him why he decided to join Hwarang and what happened. I might be reading too much into this but maybe they had been childhood friends before. It's just weird to have someone asking his archenemy if he was alright or not. So I think for Ban Ryu, Hwarang will help him find his true-self. Who he is behind the mask that his fathers forced him to wear. The Hwarang boys and Sooyeon will help him find out. I really hope the writers do justice to his character and not just pair him up with a girl and then see him turn into a puppy for his love. Not that I wouldn't love to THE Ban Ryu getting flustered and acting cute for a girl. I want realistic character development, which I think the show has been really good at up until now. His relationship with Sooyeon will probably make him re-contemplate and self-reflect. What I look forward to most in this drama will probably be Ban Ryu's self-growth and the moment when he breaks out of the mold that he'd been fit into and defy his fathers because goddamnit they deserve the worst father(s) of the year award.

Suhi Jan 03 2017 9:59 pm In a review, it says that Hyungsik is King Jinheung, so that means he will end up with Seo Ye Ji even though they might be half-siblings (like in Scarlet Heart). NVM, maybe Hyunsikie won't get the girl this round :'( But that's okay too, more kisses from Park Seo Joon :D

Suhi Jan 03 2017 9:56 pm Based on what people are saying about Sun Woo being the actual king and Maek Jong being Princess Sookmyung's brother, it's possible that Hyungsik might get the Ah Ro. People were saying that if Sun Woo was the king, then his wife would be Seo Ye Ji historically. That leaves Ah Ro with Hyungsik. Truthfully, it can go either way because I like Hyungsik more. P.S, it's funny how the female lead likes the nicer guy, they usually go for the sly ones like Hyungsik. ***SPOILER***I mean, they already got Hyungsik to take Ah Ro's first kiss and in only ep 6.

Kao Jan 03 2017 8:36 pm Kao

Who ever said she has more chemistry with the king is dead wrong. She has MORE and BETTER chemistry with seo joon ☺☺ I ship them so bad !!!!!! Honestly, ppl only like hyungsik because he’s eye candy only . Seo joon is so talented and attractive in his own ways that can capture people’s hearts?? I love him

January 4th, 2017

Kao Jan 03 2017 8:30 pm Anne you're not the only one !!!! I love seo joon and I ship him with go ara so damn much!!!! I don't want hyungsik to get her ?? and for some reason I feel like seo joon might be the real king

Jam Jan 03 2017 8:19 pm Okay wait damn this is stirring me up. So there's more to Moo Myung's character, as stated in ep 6. I think he's the queen's other son and I do feel like he's going to be the King in the end which I hope isn't true cos that is SO FCKED UP FOR HYUNGSIK'S CHARACTER. I read that King Jinheung's wife (historically) would be the character played by Seo Ye Ji. At first I thought Hyungsik and Seo Yeji would end up together and Sam Maek Jong would be happy eventually but my bad, I didn't know they we're siblings which crosses out the possibility of them having a love line. So in conclusion, I think (which I really hope isn't the case) that Park Seo Joon and Park Hyung Sik would have to fight not only for the girl but also for the throne. Maybe Park Seo Joon character is the legitimate heir or whtv. Ugh but Sam Maek Jong is King Jinheung, right? So how can he be married to his sister (historically). Maybe there's other birth secret waiting to br unravelled as the series proceeds. Fck this is exactly why I hate unfinished dramas.

iyoung Jan 03 2017 5:52 pm I always wait for this drama and i like it, but the plot line just too slow, and i kinda feel sorry for hyungshik chara cause i know allready that go ara will never end up with him. I just wait for the boys be under the king hyungshik be his friend, loyal and bromance everywhere. And I just feel dissapointed cause WHY there just a litle v in there? That was a 1 ours show and what he got just 3 f****** minutes. Seriously I NEED MORE KIM TAEHYUNG IN THERE

anne Jan 03 2017 5:19 pm I am the only one who love how Park Seo Joon acts? I mean, I am a fan of Hyung Sik but he doesn't give me the feel. I definitely ship Sun Woo with A Ro ♥ A really good drama, can't wait to see more of the bromance between the Hwarangs.

joew Jan 03 2017 2:13 pm does anyone feel like Do Ji-Han is kind of underrated??? Like everyone talks about the main actors, but Ji-Han is such an amazing actor and really handsome, may i add:)))) love his character, and im really looking forward to his and Soo-Yeon's relationship haha Hwarang is such an amazing show overall, would recommend it to anyone honestly

kemonomimi Jan 03 2017 6:03 am Oh wait! I'm sorry for the wrong information but I just read that there is another person named Wi Hwarang, father of Lee Hwarang, which is actually played by Sung Dong Il. Princess Sookmyung's spouse was actually his son not him lol

Kangchi Jan 03 2017 4:16 am can't wait to watch the next episodes. yes!! when seo ye ji is coming out? i'm so curious about her character... i found about her, she will love park seo jun right? she will be one-sided love with him poor girl but Fighting For seo ye ji!!

kemonomimi Jan 03 2017 3:12 am I searched the history of Princess Sookmyung in naver and found out that her spouses were King Jinheung and Lee Hwarang which are played by Park Hyung Sik and Sung Dong Il respectively. I only used google translate. Hopefully someone will share some information abt the Korean History related to this drama.

PS. WHEN IS SEO YE JI COMING OUT!? IM SO EXCITED

Jam Jan 03 2017 12:00 am I'm getting this major second lead syndrome with the king. I didn't even see this coming. I've seen hyungsik everywhere before, like variety shows, music shows, dramas etc. so I was just like "oh hyungsik's here? That's nice." But damn his first appearance hit me like wooooah wait why u so gorgeous though? I can't do this anymore, I'm getting salty since I know he will never get the girl. Esp the preview in ep 5 was him crying because of his damned feelings like bruh just come to me!!!!!!

Katie Jan 02 2017 10:00 pm The drama keeps getting more exciting after each episode. It proves that not all historical dramas are boring

hwaranglegho Jan 02 2017 8:00 pm this drama just keeps getting better and better! i cant wait for banryu's and sooyeon's ship to sail!! :') i can't understand the ratings tho...like ughhh come on citizens of south korea, stop sleeping on such a great drama and not your typical k-drama. this is like scarlet heart ryeo all over again. shr had such a different storyline and didn't follow the typical k-dramas and it had low ratings but loved internationally. i hope hwarang will not end up like that and really be able to capture the audience. fighting!!

Jade Jan 02 2017 4:55 pm I agree with all of you! This Drama is amazing, wonderful etc. The cast is also really really great! I don't understand the koreans. How can they rate Hwarang as "FLOP"????? It is a great Drama! This Situation reminds me of "Scarlet Heart". At that time I was so disapointed it got such low ratings and I'm so worried the same thing will happen to Hwarang! I hope I'm wrong! Love this drama and can't wait till tomorrow! <3 <3 <3

Yuuki Jan 02 2017 4:25 pm Why is it i feel like the queen in here is still lacking a bit in acting or is just that i can't get over of how excellent the queens in LITM and MSHR have portrayed their role so perfectly, they nailed it.. I think i'd just have to see Queen Jiso in the next episodes...Hope she'll show much stronger portrayal of her character...

richadiana kartakusuma Jan 02 2017 11:30 am like it so much

TaTaTaTaTa Jan 02 2017 6:35 am I thought this drama will be boring all through out, but it's getting interesting. Fighting! Can't wait for the next episode.

Miemie Baby Jan 02 2017 3:15 am I love this drama because they so sweet together.

Smin Dec 31 2016 9:06 am This drama gets better and better!! Can't wait for the new episode

Jared Dec 30 2016 8:59 pm At first I have second thought if i will watch this drama, it's good I did not stop watching it coz now I'm really enjoying this drama so much... Can't wait for the next episodes..

Lala Dec 30 2016 7:32 pm I've anticipated this drama for quite a long time (but not as long as my sister because she loves Taehyung) and I super enjoyed it when it first came out. Everything in the drama is totally perfect but I am wondering why people say the drama flopped or didn't do well. Plus, the rating is low. This drama is so underrated. I enjoyed every moments of the drama and by the time an episode ends, it felt like it's not enough. It doesn't even feel like an hour or so. Every time this happens, this means that the drama is very good, so good that I didn't realize how fast time flies while watching it. :)

zerah Dec 30 2016 12:48 pm disappointed by the rating. this kdrama is completely wonderful! i love it and for sure is the kdrama of the year. everything is PERFECT! what the heck the rating is so low??? I cannot understand!!!

bless Dec 30 2016 10:05 am they deserved the highest rating....the drama was so perfect story..and perfect cast...they are all the best..best drama of the year...I love the loveteam of go ara and park soo joon...makes me fall inlove....plsss next episode plssssssss...

yulan22 Dec 30 2016 8:41 am I have been waiting 4 this drama for a very long time as I especially like goreyeo and Silla dramas. Though not many of those are produced,this is a pretty good one. There is a lot of emotion in this drama. Sometimes, you feel like crying or laughing with the character. The cast is stunning, and their acting is pretty good. I lreally uv the posters, which reflect on each character's personalities. My fav character so far is Soo Ho Rang. I find him really cool! The scenes he are in so far is always funny! This kdrama really reminds me of Moon Lovers: Scarlet Heart Ryeo, which was a fantastic drama too. I'm dying for the next episode!

Hwarung Dec 30 2016 8:10 am Really can't wait to watch the next episode!! so far its good drama and interesting story about hwarang in Silla Dynasty.

Pcygirl Dec 30 2016 4:41 am For the first time I saw this drama,I don't really interested, but after watching episode 3 and 4, I think this is a good drama, and now i'm dying because I can't wait to the next episode

@kyeops Dec 30 2016 1:41 am Is one of Jihan's guys is Halo's Ooon and one of Minho's guys is Boys24's Chani? If not, they looks resembles them a lot lololol.

hj lee Dec 29 2016 11:30 pm The story line very flat :(

Keightie Dec 29 2016 10:42 pm I didnt expect much of this drama bec i felt the concept of the posters are awful and relied on them being flower boys. Didnt give me so much abt the story. But it was interesting. I get excited on whats gonna happen on d next episode. Its story is like a book that i cnt seem to put down and engages me. I hope it doesnt dissapoint me midway. Although i must say im not really a fan of go aras acting. Its the same all the time no matter wat role she gets i see thr same go ara. The only difference is the costume. Although her acting is not so bad compared to others. Its tolerable. I just wish she gets more depth when shes acting.

Vs acting is refreshing so far. Didnt expect that from an idol. Minhos acting also improved. The fact that i get annoyed with his character means hes doing a great job playing the part of a playboy jerk.

Alcheon Rang Dec 29 2016 8:34 pm This drama reminds me of The Great Queen Seonduk ^^ ( which is the same background~ Shilla, Bone-rank system and hwarangs )

panda Dec 29 2016 2:02 pm i can't wait till Seo Ye-Ji appears in the eps!!!!

Miro Dec 29 2016 1:48 pm I do not know to get a taste this one drama. Enough bothers me occupancy Park Seo Joon-one of the main roles (his expression vapid with an occasional "roaring" I corrupted taste of in all the drama where he played). I'm hoping for Park Hyung-Sik will be eventually starring role in good drama. I root for to him here, but has compared the Park Seo Joon-enough little space. The main female role occupied by Go Ara is OK.

poppyimnida Dec 29 2016 9:21 am i love they're all ... Sun Woo Sam Maek Jong Soo Ho Ban Ryu Dan Se ????? but specially for dearest Moo Myung and Maek Jong .. my heart always " dugeun dugeun " when i saw them ?

assa Dec 29 2016 6:57 am @Olivia Oh hellooo, miss? Where's ur glasses? Please read my last comment carefully -_- 1) I said, i hate weak-type HEROINE. It was meant to 'the character in the script'. I was NOT blaming her to be 'like that' -_- Can't u tell the different?? 2) FYI, i was talking to @kurage, because we have same opinion about 'Character of The Girl Who Is Crybaby'. Not about 'Go Ara Who Is Crybaby'. Read our comments again. -_- 3) And when i said i dislike her acting,, it was DIFFERENT TOPIC, okay? People have their own taste. Don't force someone to like someone u like.... -_- 4) Better stop watching, u said?? There are many good things besides her that i want to see in this drama. Im watching bcause of them, so whats ur problem? -_- . . Thats why people should think twice before speak. :/ So immature.

Vee Dec 29 2016 6:11 am @Jinny Lmao, you're not the only one! I love Ban Ryu too, even though he's a meanie. Guess I got a thing for bad boys ;)

Jinny Dec 29 2016 4:59 am While people are trying to decide between Sunwoo and Sam Maek Jong, I'm here dying bc of Banryu. Idek why but I just love him sososo much. Arghhh.

Anon Dec 29 2016 4:55 am this drama seems somewhat like The Hunger Games, i mean like the settings with rich, beautiful and luxurious people with very poor people outside the border and the soundtrack seems like THG too or idk it sounds familiar lol ok

Tuturuturu Dec 29 2016 4:32 am Min ho is screen stealer... i love his smile and his character. So hoo <3 <3

And again.. second lead syndrome. The king is so <3 <3 <3

PearlMilkTea Dec 29 2016 4:15 am Hyungsik really caught me off guard.. he's too handsome. I'm afraid I'll get second lead syndrome

Ozmo Dec 29 2016 3:48 am Park Seo Jun dons Hwarang attire and voila! his hair magically grows. Longer hair must come with the outfit ... lol

Esquillo, Norma Dec 28 2016 9:06 pm I like historical dramas because it adds to my knowledge and learn ancient and modern history. The characters in this drama are awesome and cute. As the saying says "Feed your brain not your appetite".Pls. more episode to come.

Rosiephel Dec 28 2016 5:24 pm That's so beautiful. I love the storyline and I'm so proud of Tae's debut drama. But I have to say something... I'm desperately falling in love with Soo Ho and Ban Ryu story... That's my ship and don't touch my babies!!!! Please, tell me that I'm not the only one xD

Clara Dec 28 2016 4:56 pm Ep 3 get high rating because SBS Gayo Daejeon, so Romantic Doctor Teacher Kim not aired. At Ep 4 rating dropped again after Romantic Doctor back.

olivia Dec 28 2016 12:22 pm @assa: really? Why are you blaming her for her character? It's all scripted. Better stop watching if you hate the lead that much. Not good for your health ?

Hye Hee Dec 28 2016 11:31 am The best drama

hwarang

assa Dec 28 2016 9:55 am @Kurage same here.. i hate weak type heroine who only knw how to cry -_- seriously.. its so unreal if two great guys gonna fallin' love with her. What so special about her? -_- please make the heroine stronger.. or smarter.. and tbh.. i kinda dislike her acting. my god :(

lyn Dec 28 2016 9:06 am I want to watch this the because of the secondlead how i wish hes the leading here

Ddx Dec 28 2016 8:14 am Flaming charisma soo ho minhooo ?

awekdgj Dec 28 2016 8:12 am I think the rating dropped due to the same time slot as romantic doctor teacher kim :(

lalola Dec 28 2016 5:44 am Korean drama nowadays tend to make the character of second lead hero look more interesting and perfect.Now how am I gonna choose between them??!!

vorafox Dec 28 2016 4:46 am Love sam maek jong too much.

Lauren Dec 28 2016 4:17 am The ratings dropped from EP 3 to 4 :( BTW I absolutely love the king Sam Maek Jong...urghhhh he's SOOO handsome! ><

Zura Dec 28 2016 2:45 am Taehyung❤️❤️❤️❤️

kurage Dec 28 2016 2:17 am I really love this drama so far, but I'm worried if this drama will keep on repeating scenes where the girl gets into trouble and the male leads go to save her. I really hate crybaby heroine or someone who keeps on getting into trouble even though she seems so strong. I even stopped watching DOTS after few eps because of this annoying recurring theme. I really hope that after they enter Hwarang the plot will focus more on the Hwarang's development and the issues surrounding the king than crybaby heroine.

sheila Dec 28 2016 1:33 am Choi min ho!!!??????

cynthia lee Dec 28 2016 12:52 am The story runs very slow. Park seo joon look doesn't fit with his role, but the prince so stunning

Leanne Dec 27 2016 10:09 pm I love this drama... definately in love with all the hwarangs, not just the main 6 but the other lot that are there in the beginning the sons of the politicians or I guess you could call the ban ryu and ho rangs followers. I heard halos ooon is in this the hair make them look so different so im struggling to figure out with one he is but I will find out.

Mai Dec 27 2016 9:54 pm OMG I dont know what I am having.. Im having second lead syndrome and something call Ban-Ryu syndrome.. <--- He's so goddamn good looking and OMG HIS VOICE *dies*. *ep 4 spoiler* the scene where his stepdad was punching (or slapping) his real dad was so sad because he had to stand there and do nothing.... Urgghhhh! btw sucks about the China ban on korean media.. hate it when politics gets involve with entertainment -_-

SharonLee94 Dec 27 2016 9:53 pm This is the first time im suffering from second lead syndrome and i think i need to get my self ready for the future heartbreak. But why wouldnt i love him?sam mek jeong's character is so interesting ㅠ.ㅠ

Red WeiWei Dec 27 2016 9:39 pm I have fallen hard for hyung sik!! I don't know if it's because of my weakness for long haired guys but hyung sik is so handsome here!! Very manly as well! Kyaaaah.. I haven't seen this sideof him when he's in Zea... He is so handsome here.. Oh my god! How i wish he was the lead, though i like seo joon but for now i have a second lead syndrome.. ???

Ems Dec 27 2016 5:56 pm it's a great show.. i wonder why the ratings not that high. nice to see Park Seo Joon once more after "She was Pretty". All the Hwarang men are handsome but i can't distinguish the other three actors,(the King, The one with an older brother, and Yeo Wool) But we're gonna be waiting for the next episodes... that's for sure! Love K-Dramas...presently watching Legend of the Blue Sea, (nice to see that Sung Dong -il is here hahaha), Goblin, Bubblegum and Dong-yi(2nd time)..that's why Kwang soo made me cry.. i wish he had a longer role like in Dongyi.. Great writers! keep it up.. :-)

anna Dec 27 2016 11:59 am kyaa... I am already falling in love with this drama.. Park Seo Joon is a good actor. Hwarang fighting! Can't wait for the next episode.

Lalnuntluangi Sailo Dec 27 2016 9:05 am I really like to watch kbs korean film. They are very good and worth watching. I like very much the new film hwarang and I enjoyed watching.All the actors and actress are very handsome. I like very much Park Seo Joon, he is good in all his performances. He is very handsome

lily Dec 27 2016 8:11 am spoiler alert

but i heard V died. apparently someone in hwarang is supposed to die and it is said to be V because if you take a closer look at their promotional picture ( can be seen above where they introduce the characters ) V is the only one in heaven ( blue background ) while the rest aren't ( the rest have green background ) i honestly hope V won't die but anyways hwaiting hwarang !! can't wait to see more of V later on in the drama.

Charlene Dec 27 2016 7:45 am Seriously I don't get why a korean drama is judged based on the viewer ratings in KOREA ONLY. Like Scarlet heart too, it's being judged AF without considering how many millions of international viewers had watched it. Please stop comparing Hwarang with Scarlet Heart anymore, they are both damn legit nice dramas but only failed to catch the attention of korean viewers. Just shut up and watch the show, i am legit damn upset this show is so under-rated and being deemed lowly at the first few episodes only. :(

Kimseokjinbts Dec 27 2016 7:22 am The line up are so handsome and very makes every lady watch every scene will yelling like someone crazy.. love the ost song to.. jin and v.. hwaiting for the rating!!

sammaekjongislove Dec 27 2016 6:29 am i hate when this is happening.... that second lead syndrome TT__TT whyyyyyy must hyungsik be that handsome and charismatic... it's like he is meant to be sam maek jong. i know they wont be end game but please give me a lot of ahro x sam maek jong moment #teamsammaekjong

asyhmysra Dec 25 2016 8:20 pm I cried a lot when kwangsoo died. I just love the drama. Have been replaying it over. I always thought that historical drama would be full of hatred and something like killing war and dark scene but hwarang is colourful yeah although kwangsoo died, still the rest of the drama made me fall in love. I'm a fan of bts and so i'm a fan of taehyung and that's the main reason i watched this but hyung sik got me hooked how can he be so handsome!

leah Dec 24 2016 9:16 pm i luv Taehyung!!!hwaiting!!!im so excited for the next episode...Park SeoJoon is really a good actor,i love him too...

hwaranglegho Dec 24 2016 4:36 pm so far so good!! i'm already screeching and fangirling over all the actors that showed up in episode one. hahaha lowkey shipping a-ro and sam maek jong right now for some reason as well. :') god bless. hopefully the rest of the drama will be good!! can't wait! :)

A gurl Dec 24 2016 9:51 am I love this drama so much.So far i watched its getting interesting.(≧∇≦)/ I this drama very very much! The young man is so awesome!They're all cute and awesome!They are freaking awesome!(*^▽^*)(*^▽^*)I LUV IT SO MUCH!

Someone Dec 24 2016 9:47 am Awesoms drama i love it

Ran Dec 24 2016 3:38 am I can't get over how exceedingly good-looking the king (Park Hyung-shik) is. I'm enjoying the drama very much so far!

Jin Dec 24 2016 2:28 am So far it's alright. I've seen better historical dramas, but the acting is pretty good and the characters are unique. It's comparable to Moonlight Under the Clouds and Scarlet Heart: Ryeo--all seemingly directed towards younger audiences in teens and early 20s.

I originally came to see V act and Park Seo Joon, but all the characters are likable in a way. The ones who have especially caught my eye is Do Ji Han with his cold appearance in this drama and of course--Park Seo Joon. I definitely think this drama can be more accurate, as their clothes look way too clean, colorful, and "ironed" for a historical drama.

Lee Ae Won Dec 23 2016 8:26 pm Ah........V fighting....the drama is amazing...look forward for it

bhangz Dec 23 2016 7:31 pm I've been waiting for this drama way back March of 2016 Im a huge Fan of Park SeoJoon and Kim Taehyung. .hehehe and this Drama did not disappoint me deabak ep.2 I cry a lot.. i hope Han Sung Ran will stay alive till the end of this ep

Aika Dec 23 2016 4:55 pm The first two episodes are absolutely amazing! I'm falling so much for this beautiful drama! I'm an army and shawol but I'm a huge supporter of the whole cast. Park Seo Joon acting touched me a lot. I'm sure Hwarang will become one of the best korean dramas I ever watched... Can't wait till next week!

Candy crush Dec 23 2016 11:28 am Been waiting for this KBS Drama with 6 handsome men-3 of which are part of boy bands. Also this is a drama of historical relevance.

ara Dec 23 2016 9:10 am i didn't expect too much when the first time i watched it, because i was afraid it will disappointed me like another drama.

But, i'm really fall for it then. This is an awesome drama. Worth to watch. Episode 2 is so touching. Can't wait for the next episode.

Madi Dec 23 2016 7:44 am I was really only going to watch the drama to see taehyung's acting, but now I'm really enjoying it. It's a really good drama and i feel the plot is clear because in some other dramas sometimes I have no idea what the purpose of somethings are and what is happening, but totally understand what's going on in hwarang. definatly a drama I'm going to stick with

jeve Dec 23 2016 5:16 am I want to see how Taehyung acts. This is his first drama and I'll support my oppa. Omoooo! He's so cute! But his part on first 2 episodes isn't that much. Looking forward for the next episodes:)

what the Dec 23 2016 4:23 am who's that female lead? i hvnt seen her before :/ Her eyes is dead like a fish. Always same expression whenever she appears. Bad acting. I dont like it -_- Why did the director choose her? Geez!! Im sorry if im rude -_- but im so disappointed right now!

nikname Dec 23 2016 2:09 am I liked the first two episodes, i think it's enough but i feel like.. ehm.. Go Ara's acting is a bit.. well idk how to say, but it's definitely not great... i wish she will improve bcs i actually like her but sometimes her acting is okay sometimes it's so off. And she has a lot of screen time too, she definitely needs some improvement here and there for the drama to be good. Btw, Park Seo Joon is great..I cried watching him>< and the visuals are no joke.. oh oh Hyungsik is getting more handsome and his acting is pretty good as well, i didn't expect that

Jey Dec 22 2016 11:45 pm It's is such a great drama! There are only two episode revealed and already gave a lot of great emotions to the viewers. I am looking forward to this drama. Hope it will make a great ranking afterwards.

Isabell Dec 22 2016 2:04 pm I really like the idea of the story!! I love Dramas like this one and I had really fund watching the first two episodes. Can't wait for the next episodes haha~ I will support this drama.

Rossae Lieng Dec 22 2016 1:28 pm I am a huge supporter of this drama!! Already made me feel great emotions during this. CAnt wait till NEXT weEK!

Love from Singapore!! Dec 22 2016 4:55 am OMG THIS IS SUCH A GREAT DRAMA!!!!!

Whoever's thinking "Should I watch this?" or "Is this actually that good / worth watching", PLEASE WATCH IT. NO REGRETS!!

Honestly I've had my doubts because although the cast is amazing, some historical kdramas are not that fresh and its the same old story over and over again. And although I would've watched it for the actors, I'm really glad the plot turned out to be really intriguing, exciting and ohmy the feels are real :')

The friendship and bromance is killing me I love it gosh and hey everyone's talking about how Kwang Soo died early but well it's expected because he's just a special cameo. But I'm so proud of him, he did a really really good job and I hope he gets more recognition as a good actor from now on!!

The cast is absolutely awesome and BEAUTIFUL and be sure to check out their bts (smirks) interviews! I screamed a whole lot watching them. The behind the scenes interview will show you how much effort and hardwork, blood, sweat and tears (smirks but yeah it's legit) they've put in.

I really hope they do well & I hope this drama will be really really successful.

Hwarang saranghae!! <3

ee Dec 22 2016 4:54 am wow lee kwang soo you did it!! youre so dramatic! i believe the ratingss will rise next week!

Seol Dec 22 2016 4:23 am I love kwang soo in here. Although his last scene in episode 2 was sad, I still laughed. It's like everything he does is funny. But i will miss him there. I wish he was really part of this drama and not just a guest. Also, right now, I'm shipping go ara with hyunsik. They have sooooo much chemistry (+ Hyunsik is so damn handsome ugh. sorry seo joon love u haha)

Ten Dec 22 2016 1:51 am Thanks to Lee Kwang Soo....... I do not expect you to die early.... Miannn~~~

heol Dec 21 2016 10:40 pm Oh my god episode 2 is best episode!!! i can't stop cry!! so far this is good drama. i hope next episode is getting better.

ihatespoilers Dec 21 2016 4:27 pm pls dont spoil in the comments I didnt watch ep 2 and yall just ruined it for me thx wow ok

Kawai Dec 21 2016 1:50 pm I love this drama because of Park Seo Joon :) His onscreen bromance with Kwang soo is so cute, i wish they do a drama together that none of them will die lol. I really cried when Kwang soo died because Dog Bird was really sad about it, Can't wait for the next episode! FIGHTING!

P.s. The Hwarang boys recently appeared on 2 days & 1 night as a Guest and it was soo funny! Poor Seo Joon though, as he was nicknamed as Mr. Ugly lol

Starlight Dec 21 2016 10:23 am At first I wanted to watch bc of my two biasis Kim teahyung and park hyngshik ❤❤❤ but now I can't wait till next week ????

yuki Dec 21 2016 9:51 am Best drama ever..love all cast and very interesting..can't wait for next episode

sangnamja Dec 21 2016 8:41 am I just watched the 1st episode and i think this drama will be as bright as Love In The Moonlight or something in between with typical historical drama (dark and bloody). Anyway, I'll put this drama on my list :)

Yawn Dec 21 2016 8:16 am You should try to watch episode 2 its so good,believe me @Belle

Maryssa Dec 21 2016 7:12 am I watched both ep1&2. I cried like a bby when sunwoo/makmoon(lee kawangsoo) die. For real.. this drama .. it a must to watch it. HWARANG : THE BEGINNING TO FALL IN LOVE AGAIN

Belle Dec 21 2016 6:52 am I started watching 1st episode and could not finish it, nothing seems interesting after "Moon Lovers Scarlet Heart Ryeo".

Sarang Dec 21 2016 5:20 am Love this drama so far.....i cry so much when kwangsoo died in ep 2....huhuhuhu T_T....will wait for ep3

Om Telolet Om Dec 21 2016 5:07 am Wtf with this ratings!! come on, the boys deserves the high ratings for this one.

ranimkpopbts Dec 21 2016 5:01 am looooooveeee this drama i cant want for the next episode !! episode 2 make me cryyy :( kwangsoo !! but the drama is really perfect i love it

Hji Dec 21 2016 4:24 am Ep2 make me cry so much....cannot wait to watch ep 3 soon....

Suji Dec 21 2016 4:22 am Watched the first 2 ep...ep 2 make me cry....huhuhuhu...kwangsoo oppa...

Sdf Dec 21 2016 4:19 am Cry alot when watched ep2.....Kwang soo TT....CANNOT WAIT FOR EP3 NEXT WEEK....

Horse Dec 21 2016 3:56 am episode 2 is better 1000000000x than the first!!! i cant stop crying on kwangsoo scene:((((((((((((((((((((((((((((((((((((((((((((

Chéc Lo Mo Dec 21 2016 1:49 am The first drama gets me leave my comment .... so admire the brotherhood betweem Mo Myung and Mak Moon.. the scene of Mak Moon took away all my effort which controled my tearful eyes... I dont care about the rating ... its the most expected drama to see in late 2016 and early 2017 ... team Hwarang fighting

Mina Dec 21 2016 1:39 am I don't get why on here it says NR for nielson for the first ep when it was 6.9% nationwide? Also I wonder which of the two ranking systems is used more/ is more reliable? It's kinda strange that the ratings went down on TNS but up on AGB.. but if I look at other shows these ratings aren't too bad for the first episode(s). If the ratings go down next week however....... I have high hopes though, the second episode was really good (though i also liked the first ep so idk) and I think the background story is explained now and hwarang storyline will start next week :) Looking forward to it!

Wer Dec 21 2016 12:00 am The ratings bad because this drama compete with doctor kim. that drama got popular nowadays. sorry my bad eng.

Hsae Dec 20 2016 11:24 pm Why the rating is so bad?

miserymissy Dec 20 2016 7:47 pm 1 minute after it start, the ost playing and i'm already smiling?

Kurdistan Dec 20 2016 4:03 pm Im inlove with the cast keep the good work fighting !!

Kurdish Dec 20 2016 4:01 pm Love minho and tae ???

it'sm3 Dec 20 2016 2:59 pm Good Start ... Sungkyunkwan Scandal TBT!!!

K Dec 20 2016 2:12 pm From the first episode, it seems.... sloppy. It doesn't flow very well, and I don't know how Go Ara even fits into the story, except to be the damsel in distress when the plot calls for it (which isn't unlike other historical drama heroines, but it's so cliché), and to lead Kwangsoo to his father. I loved the interaction between the boys though, especially Minho and Jihan. Hopefully the second episode will be a lot better (plus Taehyung~)!

MiracleLife Dec 20 2016 10:51 am who know the actress at 24:07 in Tea Shop? She's so beautiful :3

AMEL Dec 20 2016 5:11 am the ost was perfect ^_^ good job tae and jin <3 no doubt this drama is gonna be lit wish all the success to the cast ^_^

ara Dec 18 2016 4:14 am watch the drama first people :1

Really Dec 18 2016 3:41 am @Castlin Go ara is beautiful. i think there is no problem there. just one thing that i don't like in silla dynasty especially for women is HER HAIR. i mean what??? there is no headband( accessories or something) but overall this drama is good.

Grace Dec 18 2016 3:32 am Heol what is so wrong with Ara as a female lead???!?!?! If you dont like it dont watch it -_________-"

Ara is so funny here!! and also I see Seo Ye Ji too!! OMGGG not realize it before that She will join this drama hehe..fighting Ara and Seo Ye Ji!! :D

Castlin Dec 17 2016 11:48 pm Why???? Why she is the female lead???? So many beautiful and young... I don't think I can watch this drama series. Ottoke Park Seo Joon... I like you but I don't like the female lead. Ottoke.. ottoke.... ???

Army Dec 17 2016 11:36 am Taetae oppa don't worry you can do it very well ? We our army always support you Taetae ? Saranghaeyo maknae (in hwarang ) You so cute and handsome ? why director not give you special charakter ? anyways Hwaiting our Taetae ?

Ruina Dec 17 2016 8:27 am Looks like the chemistry 2nd lead is much stronger than the lead but looking forwar for park seo joon with go ara too.

Eyana TAEKOOKing Dec 16 2016 8:34 pm Of course watching this because of Taehyung aka Hansung ;) i like Seojoon but from teaser i think I'm going to second lead Hyungsik!!! don't say that I'm gonna get 2nd lead syndrome again .... ahh

laliya Dec 16 2016 10:41 am I'm going to get second lead syndrome because of choi min ho

Jayjay Dec 16 2016 9:07 am We will support you TaeTae no matter what ? FIGHTING -ARMY

KLover Dec 16 2016 8:11 am This drama wil be a bigh hit because of Taehyung and he's got the fun lovable character. Fighting oppa

Sksnjsns Dec 16 2016 4:44 am Lol just by looking at the pic im pretty sure kwang soo would look pretty funny lol

hainetane Dec 15 2016 7:21 pm I have been waiting for this drama the entire year..... like I'm expecting more from Park Seo Joon chemistry and Go Ara!!!!!!

JD Dec 15 2016 6:42 pm Just from the teaser I think I am going to get second lead syndrome

Krysa Dec 15 2016 12:11 pm Mandy, thanks for reply and hello. Please, do you have any source about historical hairstyles in korean history? Any link? I have seen many historical paintings from all historical eras in Korea and there were any men wearing haircuts with enormous forelocks. I dont think these were usual in korean history. And I am 100% sure that warrior would not wear something like this. Even a longer ponytail can be dangerous during the fight. The fact that we can see it in TV dramas does not mean anything but someone finds it sexy. Of course I will acknowledge my mistake after getting a link with adequate information.

kdramafanatic Dec 14 2016 12:05 am while im as excited as everyone about this drama,i cant wait to watch GO ARA.she has such a fresh aura that not many actresses have.im totally excited for this drama.hwarang fighting!

donahmee Dec 13 2016 2:20 am ill surely watch this because of Park Seo Joon and Minho Oppa!!! really waiting to take over sweet stranger and me..

hanan Dec 11 2016 9:10 pm the teaser with hyolyn soundtrack makes me goosebumps!!! cant wait!!!!!

Hevani Dec 09 2016 6:55 pm AHHH I can't wait!!! Taehyung and Park Seo Joon ❤️❤️❤️

Krazy Kdrama Fan Dec 09 2016 1:55 am Now I can watch dramas one whole week if this comes because... The Legend of the blue sea : Wednesday and Thursday (I loveee lee min ho the most and the whole cast and story ) Goblin : Friday and Saturday (I loveeeeee the cast and story) Hwarang: Sunday and Monday (can't wait cause it looks amazing so far) Ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I'm soooooo happy!!!!!!!

Ivy Dec 08 2016 1:52 am So excited with this drama..cant wait to watch it omg.. Park seo joon~?

Mandy Dec 06 2016 9:59 pm @Krysa. How about you do a little bit of research to know why they wear the wigs. Mind to remind you that HISTORICAL (hence the name) dramas are inspired by stories that happened thousands of years ago. The fact that every man has this type of hair in every historical drama should tell you something. The don't do it just because.

Krysa Dec 06 2016 11:55 am 100% agree with wigs comments. Korean wigs with enormous forelocks look really stupid. I do not understand the reason why men in historical dramas have those idiotic forelocks. Not just that it looks ugly, but it is 10x stupid when a character is a warrior.. Great cut for warrior who wants to be dead quickly..

lala Dec 05 2016 8:22 am all of them look ugly with that wigs though

but still gonna watch

Saphia Dec 03 2016 6:18 am Wow those wigs are uuuuuuuugglllllllllyyyy

. Dec 02 2016 12:14 am I'm quite excited for this drama. I love historicals, and I can't wait to see Taehyung acting. I hope that it doesn't end up being like an 'idol drama,' though, and ends up keeping its legitimacy as a historical drama.

Tams Lu Dec 01 2016 7:30 pm So excited!! I'm watching this as soon as it comes out, for the drama itself and for TaeTae~

But is that broadcast time (22:00) in KST?

pollentaess Dec 01 2016 1:02 am honestly , i don't really watch historical type drama but this will definitely be an exception

Febie Daryl Nov 30 2016 8:01 pm Omooooo! Can't wait till the most adorable alien living on Earth slays. Saranghae V!

RA Nov 30 2016 10:11 am The wait is almost over. I've been aching for this sageuk for a long time. I also love it that I heard Jin's voice on teaser 2. I am very excited to watch this~

Isabelle Nov 30 2016 4:54 am Can't waittt!!! Does anyone know if this will be based on a true story about the Flowering Knights of Silla??

Kiki Nov 29 2016 10:19 am Everyone have a Rang in their name....i guess its same with -san, shi, ah, gun. maybe have somethng to called with the elite group they participate.

KKJKFJ Nov 29 2016 8:53 am The Soundtrack in teaser 2 makes me fly..

Ddx Nov 18 2016 5:36 pm Choi minhooooooo.... SHINee

Dima Nov 17 2016 10:36 am I've been waiting I'm still waiting

Alyssa Baldeo Nov 16 2016 9:26 am Wow another webtoon adaption !! Excited for this drama

kdramagirl Nov 13 2016 6:42 pm The warrior boy theme kind of remind me Fushigi Yuugi(which I hope someday they would do a kdrama live action of this manga) I am looking forward to this drama :)

Sunaina Ijam Nov 13 2016 12:28 am I'm really waiting for this drama, esp. for my Taetae

mytaehyung Nov 11 2016 2:13 pm I am very anxious, I cant wait to see my Bias Kim Taehyung play in a drama. Hwaighting Oppa!

Kaddict Nov 10 2016 4:05 am omo, seo joon and taehyung. biases

veegemdoll Nov 09 2016 10:19 am Wow, during the Kingdom of Silla. So this means the setting is waaaaay before Moon Lovers: Scarlet Heart Ryeo's as the latter was set in the Goryeo era. Haha can't believe I now understand the timeline a bit. Feels like I know much more about the Korean history than my own country's. :D

yuanji Nov 06 2016 4:51 am I'm here to show some love and rooting for Jo Yoon Woo because he deserves it. This drama could be his big break, and I really couldn't wait to see his performance. He might be overshadowed by all the idol singers, but hey! that's exactly how Ensemble Darkhorse start.

Jo Yoon Woo Fighting!

nyeon Nov 05 2016 12:33 am I've been waiting for this drama ever since it was announced. I love watching dramas about this time period, and Taehyung acting... I'm so excited. <3

K lover Nov 03 2016 11:19 am Seo joon Oppa!!!! <3 <3 Can't wait!!

Andre deya Nov 03 2016 7:47 am Ooon from HALO it will be in it? I hear of some rummors.I hope he will.

berceuse Nov 03 2016 5:27 am Wahhh I'm so excited for this drama! KBS is spending a lot for this project. And since KBS channel is nationwide, I'm not going to be surprised with this drama's high ratings. *off to tell my chingus to support this drama muahahaha

ask Nov 02 2016 6:13 pm Teaser plssssss

Aloha808 Nov 01 2016 2:30 pm so i don't normally leave comments like this but as i read through some of the comments i couldn't believe all the bickering back and forth about who's a better or worst actor lol so that's why i decided to leave a comment of my own...

i realized that you can't take everything that someone said in their comment so seriously because ultimately everyone's entitled to their own opinion and in the end when those 20 episodes are done you'll be able to do just that LOL

I've been waiting pretty much all year for Hwarang to start so the anticipation is killing me *grrrr!* I watched Moonlight Drawn by Clouds and Scarlet Heart:Reyo to keep me busy and help pass time but now they're done and I still have a month and a half left before Hwarang starts...*AHHH!* can't time just HURRY UP ALREADY!! haha XP

Honestly I think Hwarang will do well as far as the ratings I don't know why, I just have a really good feeling about it lol which probably explains why I'm so excited and curious at the same time; how well have Seo-Joon, Hyung-sik and Minho prepared for their roles this time (considering their successful past experiences) but I'm sure they'll do just fine on top of being good and helpful Seniors to V since this drama is his acting debut....Hwarang HWAITING!! <3

kurly korean Oct 29 2016 1:04 am im scared and excited at the same time...there have been many dramas that have been a flop this year (in terms of korean ratings and my own thoughts) tho i didnt stop any of those dramas i kept watching it but it was boring to an extent i wanted to stop it. the only reason , in my opinion is that it will get high ratings because of the kpop idols (as usual) but if the story turns out to be a mess (i hope not) then the ratings will drop and i dont want that to happen with another good cast again.

Joon Oct 28 2016 10:50 pm Yesh!!! Park Seojoon again!!! hu-hu!!!! I knew Park Seojoon will make this drama more fun than ever, wahahaha!!! Park Seojoon oppa, I really like your way of acting.. wait, why it looks natural, huh? Anyhow, I really like all your drama, especially Pot of Gold!!!! eventhough, its a long time ago, but, still, still I like it ~~~ !!! ♥.♥ anw, goodluck to V BTS, fighting oppa!!! Also, can you be friend with Park Seojoon oppa?? hehehehe ^^„

Taehyung's Wife Oct 28 2016 12:23 pm I'm soo excited!! ALL OF MY FAVOURITE OPPA'S IN ONE PLACE.. Sarangeyo <3 IF only Ji Soo was here.. Then it would be totally perfect...

Taekook Oct 26 2016 7:38 am Omg . Park seo joon, minho, and taehyung. OMG . FLOWER KNIGHTS <3

And the beautiful go ara <3 Omoooo! I can't wait longer to this drama. I'm so excited. And my bias kim taehyung! I want to see him in this drama. I wish you more dramas and be a great actor. good luck ;) saranghae taehyung oppa fighting!

AJ Oct 24 2016 3:12 am Park Seo Joon, V, Park Hyunsik and Minho together omo im so dead!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

kaye Oct 23 2016 9:46 am gush.! what would be tae-hyung face in drama, his face is all perfect.

Kendall Oct 20 2016 4:43 pm I just watched Ask in a box bts and I think HanSung is going to be super funny haha. I have a feeling V is going to be a great actor.

Bora Oct 20 2016 4:40 pm Minho and Taehyung in one drama wow too much for me

v's wife Oct 20 2016 3:57 am omg..... v oppaaa fighting

annweather Oct 18 2016 10:55 pm looking forward for this drama. i hope this drama gonna be different with the others. because it feels like a woman attracted by few men in saeguk drama XD hahaha. i love park seo joon btw! goodluck!

kyutheztt Oct 17 2016 9:38 pm Loving Park Seo Joon.... The one and only....

Bless Oct 17 2016 7:24 am @karan khoo..so it was started already in korea..I thought I will be in dec 19... I dont get it..pls explain..im so excited with my ultimate crush go ara...fighting!!!

Angel Oct 16 2016 6:43 pm Can't wait for December 19!!! Taehyung oppa!! Fighting!

Karen Khoo Oct 05 2016 8:42 am @korindo Scarlet Heart did not flop. Its ratings is just low in Korea. It's doing really well and it's famous internationally.

katie Oct 03 2016 11:29 am Wahhh! I cannot wait for kim tae hyung! He used to act while doing the laundry back then

hee Sep 30 2016 10:36 pm wow i see a lot of idol here

pre-order WINGS now! Sep 29 2016 7:09 am They're fans. It's normal to be excited about their idol debuting in his first drama! I understand very well, especially because I too, am very ecstatic about this. But this does not mean we, the fans, can ignore the other aspects of the drama. Taehyung is a supporting character, which means that most of the time, he is not going to be focused in the drama. A lot of actors put their work on this too, so let's support them as well!

Wings is gonna be released on Oct. 10 BE PREPARED Sep 27 2016 8:44 pm i cant wait to watch this, its gonna be so cool. V hwaiting

seojoonwife Sep 26 2016 2:44 am I'll watch the drama because seojoon oppa, his mine!!! Hotness Seojoon oppa!!!

dridri Sep 25 2016 7:02 am im gonna watch this drama just for V! Kim Taehyung fighting!!!

armyforlife Sep 21 2016 6:54 am i'm gonna watch this drama only for my baby v <3 <3

anon Sep 19 2016 3:47 pm Why do I feel like korean historical dramas (fiction or nonfiction) these days have a modern feel or mood to it? I miss the older ones because they seem more realistic.

Francin Sep 18 2016 8:42 pm I really hope this will succeed and not be judged just because of some of the characters that others hate. Focus on the story not on the characters. Scarlet Heart's rating is dropping and I don't know why. It's a good drama but I gotta admit that the story seems like it's centered between the main lead girl and the second guy. I will just anticipate how they're going to turn the scenes around. Koreans say that IU's acting is not good. How judgemental of them. So to those who are saying that V will be a dissapointment, watch first before you talk.

korindo Sep 16 2016 10:25 pm i hope this pre-production drama not fail again just like UF and Scarlet Heart.

Bless Sep 16 2016 8:23 pm @reesa...you have the point..

Reesa Sep 16 2016 6:54 pm Oh, and although I adore taehyung, please do not say that this will only be popular because of him. The cast and the crew, all of them, who have contributed to this work are all liable for the success of this drama. Besides, taetae may be one of the hwarangs but he is not the main lead. He is a supporting character which means not much focus will be catered to him. As a fan I would love to see him act however I am not dillusioned enough to say that this drama's success relies on him. I just want to see him begin his career as an aspiring artist. I know for a fact that he really struggled hard for his first small screen appearance so I will anticipate for the fruit of his hard work and labor in this drama. Goodluck to the cast and crew of Hwarang!!

Reesa Sep 16 2016 6:42 pm Society in general has this tendency to hate on people or things that are popular. They would love to bring others down just to insist that they have a point. I do not know most of the actors here, however it is really an embarrasment to say that you will not be watching just because many idols are present. How will you know if they are good or not if you don't watch it?

Acting is a craft that is honed and developed with age and practice. Actors and actresses do not have magic powers or skills that at the beginning of their career, they are already an A-list/superb performer. It takes years to hone this craft. Everyone has to start somewhere. And the same thing applies to idols turned actors. Perhaps they will be overshadowed by the veteran actors in this drama but always remember that they still have time to improve this skill. Maybe not in this drama but in the future works they may take. Please do not hinder their dreams to succeed in the future. In case you forget, idols are human beings too.

So next time, before you spout something uncouth think whether it something rational or logical.

HarrietKuylen Sep 14 2016 8:35 pm anticipating Taehyung's debut drama. this will gonna be lit!!!! hwaiting

bless Sep 12 2016 11:07 pm im mad..why do some people dont like go ara.i always read bad comment to her....they didnt know how to appreciate her talent..shes so fun..charming and beautiful besides shes down to earth..some korean actor I dont like but I didnot say bad to them or comment to them..I just ignore them..

bless Sep 12 2016 10:55 pm sorry for my spelling

they will try their best for their role..we need to know how to appreciate them..

Bless Sep 12 2016 10:46 pm @honest this is a public comment you need to watched your tounge before you uttered a single word..go ara is my idol..she will not ruin this drama..she did nothing against you if you dont like her you better dont say anything..we dont even know if this drama will be successful..they will try their best for their role..we need to know how to appreciate them.(.sorry for my speliing)

bless Sep 12 2016 10:11 pm im so excited about this drama..cant wait to see my idol go ara..

Manel Sep 12 2016 7:28 am Tae ate !!! Yeah his acting is amazing can't wait!!! Fighting!!!

Delinah Sep 12 2016 7:04 am @Nicole We love V, maybe saying that this drama will be popular because of V is not the right thing to say, every cast member is going to contribute to the popularity the drama is going to gain. But in all honesty, we just want to see V. Its his first acting gig, and the fact that he is going to be in this makes it more exciting for us ARMYs all over the world.

gigi Sep 12 2016 6:58 am @Nicole Don't include Hyungsik in the same sentence as V or Minho. The guy can act, he has proved it many many times...he may not be that popular (ZE:A wasn't popular either) but he's one of the best idol turned actors with Siwan (his band mate), Lee Joon and Yook Sungjae.Ever watched What Happened to my family? (one of the best family drama in a long time), High Society (He's the saving grace of this drama and won an Award for his performance), Nine or Sirius???? Probably not or you wouldn't dare lump him with the other two.It also bums me that although Hyungsik is one of the leads, no one talks about him or mention him when there's discussion about this drama. They only care about V. Sorry it's kind of annoying :(

Delinah Sep 12 2016 6:51 am @whops lets not be crazy here. I doubt you have actually seen him act for you to give that argument. Lets wait and see, he might surprise you. Every actor has to start somewhere right?

Whops Sep 12 2016 5:53 am V?? LOL, im out! He cant act.

Jenny Sep 11 2016 1:48 pm there's no problem with idol singers starting to act in dramas or movies to begin with. they might attract more people (or not) to watch it but if they act bad then it's bad. they might improve or they might not. Even if the idol singer has a scandal, it doesn't change the fact that s/he acts good, if s/he acts good.

sarah Sep 09 2016 7:22 pm @nicol in moon lovers the problem is that IU is an idol and the lead femal although i'm loving her acting but she's the main reason why the drama is flopping in the ratings because of the zeze scandle and the lead male and female for hwarange are not idols and as an army I Have faith in V that he'll do well cuz he wanted to act and practiced by himself and the members long time ago

Hi Sep 09 2016 3:54 pm @nicole some Idol actors and actresses are pretty good. For example Shinee's onew and Nana were pretty good for a debut drama.

I'm army but I'mma watch this drama because of my sexy man Park Sae Joon and Lee Kwang Soo cameo.

Nicole Sep 09 2016 9:57 am Arrogant and immature Armys think their V can save this drama and this drama will be popular because of him??? lol, what the biggest joke of the year!! This year's flops are pre-produced dramas with idol actors and actresses. This drama has so much potential to be flop because of V, minho and Hyunsik. Army is not even Exo-L. Just see what happened to Baekhyun in moon lovers.

Hiroaku Sep 08 2016 12:22 pm I love historical drama, and i'm gonna watch this drama for Park Seo Joon , i hope Idols don't ruin this drama ...

Nanao Sep 07 2016 1:24 pm definitely i will see the drama because of Taehyung, goodluck my dear love u

Monica Sep 03 2016 2:43 pm im not that big of a fan of historical dramas but im gonna watch because of taetae <3 XD first ep on december 19 aghhhhhh

Honest Sep 03 2016 11:09 am Honestly I like everyone in here but Go Ara.Hope she doesn't ruin this drama

Hanna Sep 03 2016 5:47 am I cant wait to watch this drama!!omg..my taehyung!!oppa hwaiting..saranghae!!

Ana Sep 02 2016 11:55 am I can't wait I need to see this like right now!!!! I am watching this cause of V and also cause I really like historical KDramas so much

Lidia Sep 01 2016 10:22 am ohhh this is going to be interesting. I think this drama will be popular because of V.

missy tocino Sep 01 2016 3:57 am gogogo...........oppa v saranghae!!!!!!!!!!!

Jiminnie ARMY Aug 31 2016 5:57 am Go Taehyung oppa... Hwaiting.... ARMY'S are supporting you :)

TaeTae Aug 30 2016 4:41 am Fighting Tae Oppa!! So proud of you!!

Sharlene Aug 29 2016 10:43 pm Minho, Park Seo Joon and Taetae?! Ahhhh~! So hyped!! > <

Qist Aug 29 2016 8:35 pm Have been interested with Silla dinasty since i watched Queen of Seondeok, did u guys also watch it? Anticipacing this drama so muuch, plus there's Minho in it! Cant wait <3

Danielle Aug 28 2016 12:28 am Clover, bless you for your comment. I am looking forward to this drama as the same reasons that you listed. I have watched a previous drama that featured the Hwarangs, Queen Seon Deok. I realize that the BTS fans are happy about V's debut into acting but he isn't the main focus of Hwarang: The Beginning.

jaymie Aug 26 2016 9:47 pm Can't wait to see Taehyung and Minho.

Clover Aug 26 2016 7:36 pm So many BTS fans in the comments lolol~ I'm looking forward to this drama because I find the Hwarang knights to be really interesting (I've seen them mentioned in another drama and done some research), plus historical dramas are my faves <

Melissa Aug 23 2016 3:33 am LOL the comments are full with ARMY xD~ well I'm ARMY too, but I knew K-drama long before I knew BTS... my first Sageuk drama was QSD and since then I ventured through a LOT of Sageuk and Modern dramas as well... After KMHM and SWP I really really like PSJ and I'm so happy he starred in his FIRST SAGEUK EVER and V being extra as Hansung (I'm positive he'll be extra~ I mean, he already so very extra when he's doing random acting skit w/ the members i'm POSITIVE he'll be very entertaining in a real role) Can't wait for this drama.... but meanwhile, I'll entertain myself w/ Moonlight Drawn by Clouds and Scarlet Heart Ryeo <3

kika91 Aug 21 2016 2:26 pm omg my taetae im going crazy he look so handsome in josen area

Empress Channie Aug 20 2016 11:22 am I'm so anxious for this drama... srsly... It's the first time I feel like that after Empress Ki ♥

CookiesTriedToEatMe Jul 14 2016 11:07 am Can this drama come out already? I have literally been anticipating this since like January and not a single word has been said. Now that BTS is back in Korea will filming start for Taehyung???

Danniah Jul 14 2016 3:07 am Hwarang describes as beautiful but strong group of knights. They have strong will and fearless. They are smart, mature, and wise also good in war tactics.

The Great Queen Seondeok portrayed hwarang very well. Actually, I have waited to have movie or drama about hwarang and I am glad it's finally here. No wonder the casts are all handsome and pretty. I hope they can portray the hwarang well and don't ruin the hwarang's image. After all, this is drama and the real hwarang is not only about look, so I look forward to their acting.

Kate Silva Jul 10 2016 7:10 pm I'm not sure who I'm most excited to see- Seojoon, Minho or Taehyung?

rey Jul 08 2016 10:53 pm i love all..can't wait go ara seojoon and all..

Milady Jun 01 2016 7:00 pm I hope this is not clichèd korean drama where 6 men fall in love with a woman. Because it's the first time taehyung falls in love and i find it weird since it's his first drama . I hope it turns good

sjstrash May 29 2016 2:29 am My death will come together w/ this drama *_*

bul_bunny May 27 2016 3:54 pm Why do I feel upset that V is V and not Kim Tae Hyung. He has already stated that he wants to go by Kim Taehyung and not V. PARK SEO JUN BBY <3 <3 AND KWANG SOO's CAMEO <3 I'm so glad that he finally got a lead role and it's with Jung So Min <3 <3 ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- @Melissa: This is pre-produced, this has already been told multiple times, please do some research first before saying these things because you just seem like a fake-wannabe-army... This is also scheduled to be aired during December so even if it wasn't pre-produced, there would still be enough time to film and everything, the comment right below your's has already said that.

Melissa May 24 2016 12:28 am how's V gonna manage filming for this AND doing his Asian Tour at the same time I don't understand....

DecemberIsALongWait May 23 2016 5:04 pm I wonder what type of conflict will the story have...? I like the Hwarangs in Queen Seon Dok. xD I would like it if there will be competitions and all, and tension too. The only problem is the wait, this is schedule to air in December. that is still 7mos to go.

Rania May 21 2016 6:43 am Another drama for Minho? I hope it will hit daebak!

civilsecret May 21 2016 6:10 am im really excited for this drama, i cant wait to see park seo joon again, im soo glad that his his becoming really popular and becoming a star in his own right. he is an excellent actor. also ive never watched anything with go ara but i have seen many variety stuff and love her personality. so im excited to see their romance and dynamic, hoping for lots of chemistry. also cant forget hyunsik, i really liked him in high society, he really is one of the good idol to actor success stories i have to say, always improving. i hope this drama does well and its well written, directed and acted. i want everyone involved to have a success.

I can just picture everyone's personality from the styling only!! this is still a long time until airing (how would V managed to film between world concert schedule is beyond me.) But everyone looks GREAT and as long as the story's deliver, the cast wont betray it. Now it's up to the writers to bring us a nice drama and not the boring/ dragging sageuk

Nick288 Mar 07 2016 6:34 pm This sageuk drama is about King Jinheung as a youngster and the founding of Hwarang. So, the big question is whether MISHIL WILL APPEAR??????? Because Mishil is the Wonsanghwa (the female leader) of Hwarang and was one of its legendary figures - according to Queen Seondeok (2009). The issue is whether the directors will make Queen Seondeok or the actual history of Silla as a reference. But still Mishil is a courtier in King Jinheung's court and one of his consort. A thought to pondered and a wish be wanting to fulfilled.

Angela Mar 07 2016 8:30 am Who are the three two main characters? Why do you guys use v name from Bts? Ha just woundering Tell me more about all characters for example "park seo joon- the one who betrayed everyone" kinda mean but yeah sorry Park Seo Joon. Tell me more information!

Vy Mar 03 2016 12:52 pm They should invite Lee Yo Won since this is Shilla Era and she portrayed the Queen in "Queen Seon Deok" with phenomenal acting and it'll be refreshing.

fiftaeshades on Twitter Mar 03 2016 12:29 am i thought he will debut being an actor using his real name?

sheli Mar 01 2016 12:30 am hwarang the beginning? it means more season? yeah same ''THE BEGINNING'' like ''kangchi the beginning''. (Kangchi the Beginning is # (12th) in 2013 Korean Drama polled closed) but i think ''Kangchi'' is much better ranking (in KDrama polled closed) than of this drama ''hwarang''.

Anna Feb 24 2016 10:39 pm Why they all have the name of characters but Taehyung is not? Is he just a special guest like KwangSoo? I really want to know that.

Rio Feb 24 2016 4:02 pm Wow I'm excited! I wonder what V's role is. I hope it is second lead, at least.

alliusv Feb 24 2016 2:40 pm I think this drama would be like a male squad in joseon era.

Let's understand that little V is a support role The story most likely would be more about the main roles Park SJ and HS and Go Ara.

Tae will do great. I'm glad he is starting with a historical male-cast drama only hahha It suits him.

taetae Feb 24 2016 12:05 pm Minho ya~ fighting!!!

Ellie Feb 24 2016 11:33 am Smell of boys over flower 2! =S

Lewis Feb 24 2016 6:41 am aaahh!!! can't wait to see it. I'm so excited to see V's acting skills :) :0.... BTW what's his role?

Kristine Feb 24 2016 5:01 am Chill fam and this drama isn't all about V. We will see him, but please don't watch it just to see him. I am ARMY too but be respectful too☺️

Ira Feb 24 2016 4:14 am I hope v didn't make a kiss scene!

Zahra Feb 24 2016 3:36 am I sighed a lot when they said V will join the drama. Big Hit confirmed. The only thing got in my mind was: I hope the air time won't be the same as Moon Lovers. They have lots of star studded cast and so here. But I can't watch two of them at the same time. Please. let this air on saturday and sunday. Oh please...

suk2014 Feb 23 2016 12:49 am Another flower boy line up drama after cinderella and four knights, moon lovers, cheese in trap, etc....

Mari Feb 11 2016 5:13 pm @kpopkitty i hope they don't get facial hair either

kpopkitty Feb 07 2016 9:46 am I am really looking forward to this one. Well, I really love Park Seo Joon, but I am actually in the midst of watching a drama with Park Hyung-Sik, and he's just too handsome, and omg, he's such a great actor, so I'm looking forward to seeing how he does in this type of drama. I just really hope the producers don't make it so they have facial hair. Those types of dramas tend to have handsome men with weird looking beards and mustaches, and it would be an utter shame to see both these men's looks wasted by hair on their face.

Cwps Feb 07 2016 1:37 am Go ara and seo joon seems to fit but I'm not sure with park hyung sik tho, but still im looking towards

Morgan Feb 01 2016 11:42 am Excited for this! Love all 3 actors :)

moran Jan 26 2016 10:26 am Yaaaaay park seo joon!!! and i like go ara...I first time see her now in "you're all surrounded " and its more only 2 episodes and I finish the drama hopefully i will love this drama :D coz i love park seo joon <3

nheaj Jan 22 2016 7:54 pm cnt w8 to see park seo joon in drama again.......soooo excited.............

Lys Jan 18 2016 3:53 am I look forward to PARK HYUNG-SIK'S acting again! Never seen anything with Go Ara in it so this is going to be the first. Park Seo Jun is leading role, hoping he does well again!

Greenluvs Jan 12 2016 4:16 am Really excited to see Park Hyun Sik in a saeguk. I think he's a very good actor. I was moved by his performance in the last few episodes of "What Happens to my Family."

erika Jan 10 2016 1:10 am Can't wait for go ara

redwatchestv @ wordpress Jan 09 2016 5:56 am Isn't this Park Seo Joon's first ever sageuk role? Really can't wait to see him rocking hanbok! I hope Go Ara's acting here would be better than her acting in her latest movie, Joseon Magician. I'm not really familiar with Park Hyung Sik since I only watched him in The Heir. I hope three of them will do a great job in this drama since it's pretty hard to act in sageuk compared to modern dramas

ken Jan 09 2016 4:23 am yes..go ara is comeback...so interesting..i like park seo joon since in kill me heal me and she was pretty..i hope hwarang one of the best drama 2016..can't wait..fighting!!

tiara Jan 08 2016 10:22 pm @bony : me too. i like Seo joon. but dislike go hara. i prefer han hyojoo. lol

Bony Jan 07 2016 11:16 pm I like Go Hara, but dosen't like Seo Joon.

Bouchra Siroua Jan 05 2016 10:33 pm @kim: park seo join is bad? Are you sure we're talking about the same PSJ of she was pretty and kill me heal me, you must be kidding!!!?? And i'm one huge fan of go ara I love this little lady happy she's casting in this one

kiki Jan 05 2016 2:04 am Hwarang is about an elite group of 'flower boy' of Silla Kingdom lasted untill 10th century. the social club of hwarang include study, art, Buddhism culture and also martial art.

Rose Jan 05 2016 1:55 am I prefer song ji hyo with PSJ.. Plus, wish there is someone else other than Hyung-Sik.. not bush.. just an opinion..

monstar ❤ Jan 04 2016 10:42 pm kyaaaaa! Go Ara! loved her in youre all surrounded and of course reply 1994. and seo joon too! yey! not really a fan of hyung sik tho but anyways, Go Ara is reason enough for me to watch this except this is a historical drama? ouch. i hate historical dramas, except for those with time travel elements. oh well.

mari Dec 28 2015 10:12 am Park Seojoon and Go Ara please don't accept

ria Dec 13 2015 10:53 am OMG!!! YASSS!! hyun bin but i prefer it if the actress is someone like song ji hyo or yoon eun hye they have been my dream couples for ages

pa Dec 13 2015 10:52 am hyun bin and lee yo won please!!

Mari Dec 09 2015 4:34 pm Hyungsik is confirmed to play Sam Maek Jong aka King Jinheung of Silla

Melissa Nov 23 2015 7:41 pm Hyungsik!! PSJ!! This is for real, right? The cast is fixed?? Why does PSJ always have to paired with REALLY handsome guys like Siwon and now Hyungsik lol... it makes my fangirl heart got torn T_T xD~

======== @kim: what do you mean?? Doctor Stranger?? Are you mistaken SJ and Hyungsik with Lee Jong-Suk or something?? and Jong-Suk is a good actor *roll eyes* Whose acting in She Was Pretty really bad again? PSJ? Seriously? Okay, anyone entitled to their opinion.

kim Nov 10 2015 11:37 pm another male actor, pleaseee !!!! i dont like his act. his acting on drama doctor stranger and she was pretty really bad !!

mari Nov 06 2015 9:48 pm Hyungsik please accept

diddiex Nov 03 2015 2:31 pm The cast is too good to be true, so the catch is that this is a.. period drama. Yep. Hope it has something to with time travel or something idk.

suk2014 Nov 02 2015 5:44 pm Why period drama? Because korean make drama not just to entertain their netz but also to educate history to their netz.

Aigoo aigoo Nov 02 2015 4:47 am Love the main cast but can't watch period drama.

monstar Nov 02 2015 1:58 am WOW. Go Ara and Park Seo Joon and Hyun Sik. BUT WHY DOES IT HAVE TO BE A PERIOD DRAMA???? WHYYYYYYY?
