  2. Apr 2, 2024 · The best way to describe Hwarang is a coming-of-age high school-like story loosely dressed up as a period drama. Like the CW drama Reign, the historical accuracy is loosely portrayed. Hwarang is spoofy, silly, comical, and hilarious, but manages to balance it out with fun characters, poignant emotions, and well-placed drama when necessary.

  3. Jan 24, 2017 · I think Hwarang was falsely promoted as a 'brotherhood' drama, but as far as I can see, it's a typical 'love triangle' drama - complete with the I-think-he's-my-bro-but-he's-not. I see Hwarang slowly but surely falling in the Moon Lovers slump, where the good parts of the story are fast forwarded to accommodate the shitty love story.
