Hwarang, a drama that takes us on a journey into Korea's past

Hwarang is a very good drama and one of my big favorites of 2016! I was able to watch this drama because it has V. We also find in this cast of renowned people such as Park Seo Jun or Minho of SHINee. Unfortunately, the casting is not everything. The number of clichés is numerous, in particular the classic love triangle and there are some scenes, some funny and tragic, which are overplayed. Even if the events follow one another quite quickly, all of the elements mentioned above lack naturalness and credibility, with long slow-motion scenes, breaking the rhythm several times. On the other hand, I really like the *Hanbok* that the Hwarang wears. Concerning the characters, I love Ah Ro, played by Go Ara who is MAGNIFICENT and she is one of the favorites as an actress, with her sublime clear eyes and in the drama. Otherwise, I became attached to the other character, namely Princess Suk Myeong (Seo Ye Ji). In terms of the OST, it fits very well with the feudal atmosphere of the drama. In short, despite the flaws, it is a pleasant drama to watch.
