Looks cute so far - maybe a little of a comedy....I first heard about the Hwarang when I watched Queen Seondeok ages ago...her reign was about 100 years after this period... en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jinheung_of_Silla

I never saw Queen Seodonk. Was it also in Silla? It looks cute and as usual there are actors we have seen before in historicals.

When I first got FIOS quite a long time ago I got the Korean premium TV package free for a few months instead of HBO etc., which I didn't need (although now it's included in my plan.) So I saw part of Queen Seodeok on one of those channels that had English subtitles. Then I saw the rest of it on DF or some other online venue. Yes, a lot of the usual suspects there...lol...it's about 8 years old and has over 50 episodes but I think it was well-done. Maybe you should consider watching it when I go to Japan next spring...then we can just have one other drama and it might be a bit easier for me...lol....plenty of time to think about that....

Finished the first week. Enjoyable so far. Other than Dog-bird, all of the other men look alike to me. I know one is the "missing" KIng but I can always tell which one he is

Yes, I like it as well. I can distinguish the king, Banryu and Sohu or something like that - and Dog-bird - the others are all pretty much the same - good looking with long hair...lol...
Evidently the Queen and Master Ahnjin had some sort of relationship back in the day...and btw what's up with that schmatta he wears on the top of his head from time to time?

The actor who plays the dance instructor was the head of the tax department in Chief KIm. He also was in Strong Woman and played a very funny effeminate character
