Both dramas are Set in the Joseon Dynasty, and depict a Korean historical figure; The Crown Prince. Both deal (although in different ways) events involving a conspiracy.

when most historical dramas are focused to royal family these 2 dramas are about middle class people and lifestyle which is refreshing.
in both dramas:
*there are two male leads with friends/enemies dynamic and both love same girl
*great fight scenes and martial arts (though Chuno has it better, it has best ever fight choreography and cinematography of it)
*there are many storylines and characters (though Chuno has better developed and interesting side characters, even small 1-2 episode characters are interesting)
*bromances (in Warrior 2 MLs have great and deep bromance, in Chuno 2 ML develop kind of friendly relationship but really good bromance is between ML and his 2 friends/partners)
*politic and royalties are part of the story but not main, it is not too much but enough in both dramas.
*two male leads both are good/interesting characters but different, one of them is more "good guy" and other kind of outlaw. "good guy" is ML in Warrior and SML in Chuno.
*in both dramas two male leads are equally excellent in martial arts.
*environment, society, lifestyle of middle class and casual people, light and positive atmosphere.
*there is one more girl except of female love interest of both guys, main character who is more interesting, layered and loveble character and is in love to ML.

both are good dramas which caches you, but overall Chuno is better drama with it's production quality, cinematography, good and layered main and side characters, acting and greatest fight scenes.

They both are bromance.
They both were great frienship but even though they were in diffrent sides they still cared for each other.
They both were friends and then rivals.

They are both Heart wrenching, action packed Historical dramas centered around the life of a young man during a power struggle in the Joseon Dynasty.

they both have opposite male characters. It's interesting that both of them love the same woman and try to protect her in their own way. But, Warrior Baek Dong Soo deals with friendship and political power struggles while Hong Gil Dong with rightness and beliefs.

Even though the two dramas are very different, I think, people who love the Untamed will also like the Warrior Baek Dong Soo (the focus of the drama is on the relationship between two friends in Warrior Baek Dong Soo).

1. Both have the same vibe.

2. Both have main leads that are weak at first but become more mature and stronger through training with a mentor.

3. Both have main leads that seek revenge.

4. Both have great action scenes.

Both are historical stories about two friends with different statuses who end up enemies due to choosing the opposite side of some conflict.

both:
*Historical
*very good bromances
*friends love same woman
*ML and SML at some point become rivals (especially in WBDS) but stay friends and love each other till the end
*you will have second male syndrome in both dramas, in TKIL he is very nice very good and loyal lovable guy, in WBDS he is anti hero super charismatic dark guy, star of the show. Both have sadness in their eyes...

Romance is very good in King in Love, and unpredictable love triangle, but in Warrior it is weak part, but bromance and SML is so good... both must watch dramas!

I recommend this with some reservations because these dramas are quite different from each other in terms of what the main story is focused on (politics vs. action). However, people who particularly enjoyed the martial arts elements and bromance between Bangji and Moohyul in Six Flying Dragons, will likely be interested in Warrior Baek Dong Soo. For someone who enjoyed Warrior Baek Dong Soo, Six Flying Dragons is another historical drama with exciting martial arts face offs and friendship-rivalry relationships, but it also has a stronger political plot and more thematic depth.

The initial feeling is kind of similar - an older cast who do their own revenge-remembrance-redemption thing, young heroes finding their place in the world, maybe there'll be some tragedy, lots of action scenes. And there's a promise of sworn brothers in Hot Blooded, just like there is in WBDS.

Both have really, really epic bromance, great main actors (Ji Chang Wook with Yoo Seung Hoo and Kim Woo Bin with Lee Jong Suk) and love story isn't actually important, so if You enjoy bromances, you'll love both dramas ^_^
