Let's be honest, Hwarang was so highly anticipated by fans of all of the cast, and honestly i only started watching it because of the pretty boys in the cast (which i guess is kinda the point in regards to the plot lol)

Story:
The plot was kind of boring to me, most things that happened could've been predicted three episodes earlier
The drama really only focused on the story of the main character (park seo-joons' character), with mentions of other character's backgrounds.
Eventually the writers seemed to drop the side stories and focus on the main, which i mean okay, the plot is about him, let's focus on him, but abandoning other characters' background story made them so 2 dimensional, and they became boring
And don't get me started on Ar ho's (Go Ara) character, after around 10 episodes she spent almost every one of her scenes crying, it grew tiring, it was as if the script writers stop trying with her, i would almost roll my eyes every time she appeared on screen, and i don't even know what she was crying about half the time to be honest.
(I don't balme Go Ara for such a terribly structered character, the writers should've tried a littler harder with her and not given up on the character)

Acting:
Park Seo Joon, Park hyungsik and Minho's acting were probably the best out of them all, nothing too amazing that stood out though
Go ara's acting was pretty average, but damn that girl can crying on demand if she needed too (and she did lol)
Everyone else's acting was okay, no one was horrifically bad at it, so yay for that

Music:
No particular song really stood out to me, but i don't remeber anything bad, so i must've subconsiously enjoyed it, i guess?

Rewatch Value:
I didn't finish the first time, i won't rewatch it to finish it
I wanted to see the ending, i really did, i tried to force myself to watch the last few episodes when they aired, but i just couldn't.
