The First Night With the Duke: Seohyun & Taecyeon Star in New KBS Fantasy Romance
Seohyun enters a romance novel and meets obsessive male lead Taecyeon
KBS2 has unveiled two main posters for its upcoming fantasy romance drama “The First Night With the Duke”, set to premiere June 11 at 9:50 PM KST.
🔮 A Fantasy Twist: College Girl Possesses Novel Extra
The story follows Cha Seon-chaek (played by Seohyun), a modern-day college student who finds herself inside the body of a minor character in a romance novel. Her world flips upside down after a fateful night with the novel’s cold and obsessive male lead, Yi Beon (played by Taecyeon).
From a forgotten extra to the center of the plot, Seon-chaek’s journey becomes a thrilling and unpredictable off-track fantasy romance.
🖤 Intense Chemistry Revealed in Posters
The first poster captures a quiet tension: Seon-chaek subtly leans toward Yi Beon, who watches her silently with a stoic expression. Their reserved body language hints at emotions boiling beneath the surface.
In the second poster, their chemistry heightens. Seon-chaek gently holds his traditional gat while gazing up at him with subtle affection. Yi Beon, no longer indifferent, meets her gaze—creating a moment thick with anticipation and intimacy.
🌙 A Dreamlike Romance World
Soft violet tones, butterflies, and moonlight set the backdrop, drawing viewers into a whimsical, novel-like world. The contrast between Seon-chaek’s pastel hanbok and Yi Beon’s dark attire deepens the visual storytelling—modern meets traditional, warmth meets cool detachment.
📺 When and Where to Watch
“The First Night With the Duke” premieres on June 11 (Wednesday) at 9:50 PM KST on KBS2. Don’t miss this genre-defying, heart-fluttering fantasy romance.
