Very disappointed with this star studded drama

I have quite a high expectations with this drama, especially with their cast that are full of highly regarded actor and actresses. The story is unfocused and just keep on dragging. With such wonderful cast, the acting of the main character feels so bland and uninspiring.
There are no chemistry what so ever between the ML, FL and SML. I don’t even understand why they would try to make a love triangle that just doesn’t have any fire.

They should have focused just on the live as Hwarang, because when they focus on that, that’s when I find the story to be interesting. They really need a better writer. I find myself keep fast forwarding all the romance scene between the FM and either of ML and SML. Her acting is so bad, I cringe, I’m sorry if I sound like I bash her. This is my third time watching her drama. She has the same problem, no chemistry what so ever with ML in Black, I don’t remember her at all in Reply. I really wish they drop this awkward romance and instead focus on the character and relationship development between all the members of Hwarang.

The attempt on palace politics is just plain boring and cliche. They didn’t even bother to clearly explain the background story, the real reason why all of this is happening. It feels so shallow, like we just look at a book by the summary page. Nothing is explored, they spend most of the run time trying to develop the romance that is really awkward between a lot of the character.

The ending feels so rush and anticlimactic while the whole story feels dragging and shallow. It have so many plot holes the size of Jupiter with how obvious they are.

Gosh, I don’t want to keep on ranting but his is really bad. I better stop here before I keep on bashing this show...

Definitely not going to watch it again. And the music... I didn’t like their attempt on trying to mix modern music on ancient period drama, the latter part ost is nice, but the beginning is just... no.
