In Joseon Dynasty, immaculately dressed in scholarly robes, the young nobleman Kim Sung Yeol lives as a vampire to keep his promise to his friends. When Sung Yeol still was a human, he found out about the vampire Gwi who sits above the King deciding the next royal line and has resurrected as a vampire trying to fight against Gwi. And now, he is living as a guardian vampire fighting against the evil vampire without losing his human nature.
The fight for good and evil are similar in both. Both main characters seek to correct the blood within them that gives them special power. Both have a cross-dressing lead, who present both a weakness and strength to the male lead.
This is a story involving vampires. It goes back to 350+ years when Baek Jung Won saved the vampire I Wha from being burned at the stake in his village. He fell off the cliff while they escaped and I Wha had to give him her blood in order to save him from dying and thus Baek Jung Won was transformed into a vampire also.
In the modern day Seoul, they opened a bar. One day, Baek Jung Won received a letter from his former lover who was dying and entrusted him to look after her daughter, Jang Ji Yun. Baek Jung Won fell in love with this woman some 20 years ago but broke up without telling her the truth about himself. After her mother's funeral, Jang Ji Yun found a picture that her mother treasured a lot with someone looking like Baek Jung Won in it and she set out to look for him. When she finally found him, she thought he was the son of her mother's long lost lover as Baek Jung Won's appearance didn't change as a vampire. They start to fall in love and I Wha has difficulty dealing with that. At the same time, a serial killer who sucks blood from the victims is on the loose

Both are supernatural drama. And both contain royal politics and same type of romance. The Main lead has supernatural power and wants to take revenge. Villains are also supernatural beings.
joon gi is the main lead in both dramas and both of them have a fantasy and supernatural vibe to them
Both dramas are historical dramas with fantastical elements that stars Lee Joon Gi as the lead male actor. In Scholar, Lee Joon Gi is the more mystical character while in Arang, the love interest is the more mystical character. Actor Han Jung Soo appears as a “hunter of sorts” in both dramas.
Qualitywise, I find Arang and the Magistrate so much better, people should try Arang even if they find Scholar boring.
