'The First Night of the Male Lead' unveiled two main posters depicting the fateful encounter between the real college student Seo-hyun and the male lead Ok Taek-yeon from the novel.
Set to premiere on June 11 (Wed), KBS 2TV's new Wednesday-Thursday drama 'The First Night of the Male Lead' (directed by Lee Woong-hee and Kang Soo-yeon, written by Jeon Seon-young, produced by Studio N and Monster Union, based on the Naver Series web novel 'The First Night of the Male Lead' by author Hwang Do-tol) features a 'no-brake' romantic fantasy about an ordinary college student's soul inhabiting a minor character in a romance novel, who spends a night with the novel's strongest obsessive male lead.
The first released main poster shows a calm atmosphere revealing a peculiar tension between Cha Seon-taek (played by Seo-hyun) and this (played by Ok Taek-yeon). Cha Seon-taek cautiously leans slightly toward this, while this silently stands beside Cha Seon-taek with an expressionless face. The hidden emotions in their expressions evoke anticipation for the relationship that will unfold.
In another poster, the emotions between Cha Seon-taek and this are more vividly felt. Cha Seon-taek looks up at this with eyes sparkling with excitement while holding onto the strap of a hanbok. This does not shy away from that gaze, increasing the heartbeat. The intensity of their connection is conveyed solely through their gazes.
Meanwhile, the violet background with flowers, butterflies, and the moon as objects draws attention as it evokes the world of a romance novel. The contrast between Cha Seon-taek, dressed elegantly in a bright hanbok, and this in dark clothing with a black hat adds to the curiosity about their connection.
'The First Night of the Male Lead' hints at the strange current flowing between the college student inhabiting a minor character in the novel and the male protagonist through the main poster. As the MZ college student intervenes in the romance of the young male and female protagonists from the novel, curiosity grows about what events will unfold. It raises questions about the feelings of Cha Seon-taek, suddenly thrust into the center of the story, and this, who is off the beaten path.
'The First Night of the Male Lead,' depicting the unpredictable story of Seo-hyun inhabiting a minor character in a romance novel and the obsessive male lead Ok Taek-yeon, will air for the first time on June 11 (Wed) at 9:50 p.m. on KBS 2TV.
