Okay, K-drama besties, have you seen the new poster for “The First Night With the Duke”? Because I did, and I’m still not over it. If you’re into steamy historical romances and picture-perfect leads, this one’s gonna have you hooked from the first glance.
The Poster Is Straight-Up Dreamy
Let’s talk about the moment: Girls’ Generation’s Seohyun and 2PM’s Ok Taec-yeon wrapped in a soft, romantic embrace. It’s giving all the heart-fluttering, slow-burn feels we crave in a good K-drama. The way they’re looking at each other? There’s already chemistry, and the show hasn’t even started yet.
The poster has this gorgeous glow, like you’ve stepped into a romantic fairy tale. Seohyun looks graceful and strong, and Taec-yeon is serving full-on noble duke energy. It’s classic fantasy-meets-romance, and I am so here for it.
A Perfect Blend of Fantasy and Romance
From what we know, the drama’s about a modern-day girl who wakes up in a novel, as one of the background characters, no less. Totally relatable if you’ve ever wanted to rewrite your own love story, right?
That’s where Taec-yeon comes in. He’s the cold, mysterious Duke who was supposed to fall for someone else… but fate (and a time-travel twist) throws them together. Judging from this poster alone, it looks like sparks are going to fly fast. Honestly, this might end up being one of my favorite Seohyun dramas yet.
Taec-yeon and Seohyun? Say No More.
I’ve been a fan of Ok Taec-yeon since his earlier dramas, and pairing him with Seohyun is genius. Both of them have that quiet, intense energy that makes romantic moments feel real and deep. And let’s not forget, K-pop idols turning into full-blown K-drama leads? That’s our thing.
Whether you’re watching for the drama, the romance, or just to see your faves onscreen together, this poster is all the sign you need. It looks like we’re in for a show that balances tension, fantasy, and just the right amount of flirty banter.
So, What’s Next?
The First Night With the Duke officially premieres on June 11, 2025 on KBS2, airing every Wednesday and Thursday. So yeah, mark your calendars, because this is one drama night you won’t want to miss.
