tbh not a big fan of historical dramas but im here for bangtan and shinee

This one is going to be more on the light side, maybe. I wonder how long it's gonna take to get episode 1 of Wigs and Robes translated. I haven't watched a drama since Minho's last drama but it's so nice to have something to look forward to.

I love historical dramas, so this will be fun, especially since it contains people from my two favorite groups <3 One has his acting debut and the other is acting in a sageuk for the first time, so lots to discover. I'm looking forward to see how the others do as well, though I don't know much about them.

 

Also, isn't it technically at least 3 idols? Hyungsik is part of ZE:A even if the group isn't currrently doing that well

Yeah, 3 idols. It was fun watching them make up the fughting dance part and seeing the 3 actors struggle to follow along.

I'm about 15 minutes into today's raw episode. Is Kwangsoo Park Seojoon's brother? I thought I heard PSJ say appa. I hope Kwangsoo doesn't get killed but I'll be stunned if he survives the week.

I just finished watching subbed episode 1 and it was fun. I totally wasn't expecting Hwarang to be fun. I hope it catches on sand the GP doesn't dismiss it. It appears to be something totally different than the usual. Maybe they will appreciate that. Who knows. Still first it took me a couple of turns to get into it, then the hour flew by. I love how shallow some of the predebut Hwarang are. It will make their transformations that much more interesting.ðŸ˜

 

Taehyung's song at the end totally fit. I was surprised that I recognised his voice right off. He has a really good, husky sound. Good for him.

Can't wait for the second episode to be subbed! So far, it's a little too silly for me to get into it. Not only that, my BB Park Seo Joon has the worst hair ever. Go Ara and Park Hyunsik make this drama so far. I'll probably have a full opinion on it after episode 5. Hopefully it'll be good. I'm afraid of a nightmare scenario where this drama passes 20% ratings because of pretty people despite it being not good. Kinda like Heirs.

He said they tried different wig styles on him so it's going to change.

Sun Woo and Ah Ro belong together. She clearly is in love with him and he cares for her.

 

I can't wait for Minho's character to get a little serious because right now, he is an aristocratic mess.😆

Damn, I have to wait until Thursday night to watch that?! I'm saving it for after my aunt's funeral. I'm going to need a pick me up, and THAT will be just what the doctor ordered.😄

 

I love his showering wig.ðŸ˜ðŸ‘ðŸ½

Something makes me curious...

 

I wonder why Sooho keep stare at that Queen?

 

Did he has family related to her? Probably the Queen was he's lost mom? omgg :cry: 

 

She's a pretty high-born lady that he has yet to conquer. He's an aristocrat himself, a highborn True Bone (whatever that is) so he's probabably attracted to her majestic.........(WHERE AM I GOING WITH THIS?!? DISMOUNT!)

I like suho's character he so mischievous. Ban ryu is annoying,but it is understandable seeing his past I hope suho's sister changes him quickly i want to like him. what is happening with suho and the queen?

Am I the only one who thinks it is weird to love someone you thought of as your bro.

She saw him as a strange handsome person who saved her life before her father shattered her dreams when he told her he was her brother. She fell in love with before he could really stop herself. Ah Ro and Sun Woo belong together. They are going to click their heels together when they find out they aren't related. I hope she isn't killed before they find out. I really like her character too. She's feisty.

I will be glad when the Hwarang come together and are trained to kick ass cause right now they are just a dramatic and bitchy mess. I mean, all of them are so easily triggered, it's ridiculous. Life is about more than hair, robes and lame shade throwing ("your hand is shaking", "don't think about being late"), guys.

Yeah it's interesting to see them grow and be become strong as knights. And it's said that they inherited from their annoying fathers lol, like it's how they are living it that era.

Yeah, politics screw up everything. Their growth is going to be interesting to watch, I hope the audience sticks with the drama.

I am starting to dislike the king, because how he approaches aro. If a girl injects you with a temporary paralysis it means you are doing something wrong. I hate that forceful kiss, and I get why the chemistry between the two leads are near zero, because she thinks he is her brother and he in a kind of way does not understands what he feels. 

or plot twist he is really  her half brother from her father and the queen  :derp:

 

  ep 8

I do not get why so many prefer her with the King. They should just straight up confess that they prefer Hyungsik's looks better. Just be honest because the way the King continuously harasses her when she's made it clear that she doesn't like him is not cute. If an idol was doing that in real life, they would preach against it for days. Then some use the excuse that incest is gross. Um, you that she is not related to Sunwoo. I think Sunwoo and Ah ro have chemistry and belong together. I think Sun woo is the Queen's son. Idky. I need to start from the beginning and watch everything again because sometimes I feel lost. Like why are the Hwarang trainer and the tea House guy in cahoots?

The King has been getting on my nerves since like episode 2 or 3. I read some reactions after episode 6 came out and the way some viewers were fangirling about the kiss made me super uncomfortable (I mean, Ah Ro herself said Master Pervert kissed her against her will so...) but to each their own, I guess.

He had the chance to apologize to her in ep. 7 but all he wanted was to kiss her again. He could end up redeeming himself though, but for now everytime he comes up I just want to

- Highlight of the episode for me was SooHo teaching SW how to treat his sister. That headlock thing was gold. As someone who grew up with 3 older brothers, that scene had me dying.

 

 

- The queen fainted and I was like "now wait a minute...." :ninja: Was there any hint or explanation for that? Like is she sick or something? If there was, I missed it. I'm also very interested in her backstory with Ah Ro's father (sorry I forget his name), I want to see more of them.

 

-Ah Ro's friend is super pretty. I keep getting distracted and not reading the subs because I can't stop looking at her lmao

 

 

-That's sad to hear about the ratings. Hopefully they'll go up again.

Did the ratings fall? They had gotten to 13% at one point.

 

Yeah Suho telling him to put her in a headlock and make her do everything was funny. But, now she's made his nemesis fall for her. That will boil his gonads.

Yeah, they dropped to 6.9% from last's week's 8%. There is a very popular drama that airs at the same time but it's ending soon.

 

SooHo will be so pressed :lol: Hopefully that storyline will make Ban Ryu more likable.

Yeah, he needs to be less icy quickly. I'm upset over the ratings drop though. Damn, they aren't even giving it time to play out. Hopefully, the other drama ending will help.

man I wish the boys had more screen time.. it's really fun when the focus is on hwarang.

 

The main love story is honestly really boring but I hope it picks up soon. Also does the queen really need to be given all that screen time ? .?

I don't understand this drama at all it feels like it's about everything but Hwarang. Plus, I"m lost. I have no idea how he Queen and the Hwarang trainer started bartering wiith the King's life. I give up. The drama is almost half done and I don't even care cause I have lost interest.

THIS SOOOO MUCH OMG!!!

 

Stay for Minho!!!! Tbh I'm only here for banryu/soo ho!

The Princesses arrival just made thinks interesting. Maybe Ah Ro will get jealous and stop bitching. But, that's still about the sttinking love triangle. This dramq is supposed to be about Hwarang. I"m just in a pissy mood because my iPad isn't working.

I'm kinda opposite of you..I don't like the princess so far (her voice seriously needs some getting used to )

 

If they focused oh hwarang instead of the queen/politics etc the ratings would be higher imo..

 

The drama is about hwarang but the actual boys get like 2 scenes the entire drama :derp:

 

Anyways hope your iPad starts working soon T~T

Thanks, me too. Yeah, the drama is called Hwarang. Let it be about Hwarang and not Hwarang having silly arguments. That's all we've gotten. And two hot shower scenes.
