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.
