description Studying the afterglow of gamma-ray bursts (GRBs) is essential for refining theoretical models, uncovering their underlying physical processes, and exploring potential new physics. Multiwavelength investigations have emerged as a fundamental approach for deciphering the complex nature of GRBs, harnessing the complementary observational capabilities of advanced spaceborne observatories and sophisticated ground-based facilities. The High Altitude Detection of Astronomical Radiation (HADAR) experiment utilizes a novel wide-angle atmospheric Cherenkov detection technology, offering the advantages of a wide field of view and a low energy threshold. It is capable of not only observing the very-high-energy (VHE) gamma radiation from GRBs but also conducting observational studies on the optical afterglow of GRBs. In this work, we simulated the expected observations of HADAR for the optical and VHE gamma radiation afterglow of GRB 190114C. The results indicate that HADAR can effectively observe both bands of this GRB, particularly demonstrating excellent sensitivity in the optical band and providing good imaging of its radiation process. This demonstrates that HADAR is capable of conducting effective observations and research on the optical radiation of similar GRBs. Its contributions can refine relevant theoretical research and may enable attempts to observe gravitational-wave counterparts.
