Hmmm, these teasers aren't doing much for me. But one thing I've realized this year is that lots of dramas that weren't initially on my radar turn out to be gems and sometimes the ones you look forward to turn out to be duds.

I was really looking forward to Goodbye Mr. Black and Lucky Romance this year, but both turned out to be mediocre to bad. Similarly, many of my highlights of this year such as Page Turner, This Week My Wife Will Have an Affair, Weightlifting Fairy Kim Bok-joo, and Goblin were ones that I was hardly paying attention to during their promo period (and even preparing myself to dislike in the cases of Fairy and Goblin).

So maybe Hwarang will surprise me despite my loss of interest. You never know!

Doesn't look like there is gonna be much depth or acting in this one, but I can sit and watch Go Ara make goofy faces for an hour at a time, no problem!

Hyung sik is prettier than Go Ara in these stills

This looks fun to me.

I like Park Seo Joon. Saw him in She Was Pretty and thought he did well. He's a pretty boy that isn't *too* pretty, if that makes sense. Some pretty boys veer too close to feminine territory for my personal tastes. He doesn't (to my eyes).

Not familiar with the other male lead.

Funny thing. I've never actually seen anything Goo Ara's been in. I have this vague feeling she's popular, right? What's the general consensus on her? Is she a good actress?

She looks goofy and cute here. I'm kinda digging it.

Probably doesn't hurt she's so pretty. I do like things that are pretty. ;)

Anyway. Seems promising. I'll be excited to see it.

Not a drama that i am looking forward to but will catch a glimpse to see those eye candies.

i said i probably wouldnt watch Weightlifting fairy when the promos were running and right now its one that i enjoyed the most out of the korean dramas.
I thouught Moon Lovers would be epic- then i become epiclly disappointed with the trajectory and the ending.
so anything is possible. Hwarang might have its pluses.. we shall see but probably not watching it as it airs- im happily binge watching Princess on Lanling and Princess Weiyoung.

Is this year of sung dong il..?

This drama keeps growing on me. I had no expectations whatsoever, and still don't have, but it seems it's gonna be a fun ride.

I think I'll full enjoy this.

Wow how to watch this as I'm not a Park Seo Joon fan even a little...

I don't mind the candy who works a thousand different jobs, but sometimes i would like to see a candy who isn't literally on the rainbows and happiness train 99% of the time. I mean... i don't want to see a heroine who's a legit buzzkill but as if these chicks are happy all the time. I sometimes would like to see a heroine who is slightly more in the dumps. I can relate a lot more to that.

Anyone get a hint of Na Jeong from Go Ara's character?

go ara is goddess of part time jobs ....and park so jun was master of part time jobs in witch's romance :-)

Idk

I didn't get the 'saeguk feeling' from those three.

I might be skipped this one. I'm having bad post-moonlovers vibe.

Sounds like a lot of fun!

*sigh* OH, just a few moments of Park Seo Jun's voice and now I guess I'll be able to get past the godawful wigs after all . . . ??? yeah, I'm easy that way.

I'm impressed. This is actually the first time in kdrama history where the female lead outshines every single one of the flower boys. (Ok, IU held her own in Moon Lovers) But not one of the guys here rock that mane of glory. Not one. They all look like they're in drag. What's going on???
