I'm a wolf and you're a beauty

dreamer_easyLanguage practice time. Thought I'd have a peek at a Kdrama called "Moon Lovers: Scarlet Heart: Ryeo" (really). Our feckless heroine has travelled back in time to the Goryeo kingdom, where the dark romantic hero*, with his long hair and eyepatch, has just arrived on his horse, no doubt ready to be tamed by her bumbling virtue... *facepalm* Even the bevy of bathing beauties who have abruptly burst onto the screen (ie the crown princes) are unlikely to keep me watching this for long.
There's a drama coming up at the end of the year, "Hwarang", about the "flower knights" of the Silla kingdom. So far I haven't managed to find out much about these guys, so it'll be a kind of research. Actually, I realised that the Chinese Web drama I've been watching on and off, "Mystic Nine", is set at roughly the same time as one the novels in my queue, currently code-named "Lee Jumps Ship", so now that counts as research as well, and not merely as dicking around looking at boys. Hooray!
* The trembling villagers call him the "Wolf-Dog". I'm picking out the odd word here and there - happily I knew the word 늑대 neukttae "Wolf" thanks to EXO's celebrated song of the same name. ETA: Holy cow, he punched a wolf!
