'The Male Lead's First Night' has released two main posters capturing the fateful meeting between reality university student Seo Hyun and the male lead Ok Taec Yeon from the novel.
Set to premiere on June 11, KBS2's new Wednesday-Thursday drama 'The Male Lead's First Night' (directed by Lee Woong Hee and Kang Soo Yeon, written by Jeon Sun Young) is a 'no-brake' romance fantasy that unfolds as an ordinary university student's soul inhabits a supporting role in a romance novel and spends a night with the novel's ultimate obsessive male lead.
The released main poster reveals a strange tension between the alternative character (played by Seo Hyun) and the male lead (played by Ok Taec Yeon) in a serene atmosphere. The alternative character leans slightly towards the male lead with caution, while he silently stands by her side with a blank expression. Their expressions, seemingly hiding their feelings, evoke anticipation for the relationship that will develop.
In another poster, the emotions between the alternative character and the male lead are even more pronounced. The alternative character looks up at the male lead with sparkling eyes while holding onto her hair ribbon, and he does not shy away from her gaze, increasing the heartbeat. The intensity of their emotions is conveyed through their close proximity and shared glances.
Meanwhile, the purple background with flowers, butterflies, and moon objects draws attention, reminiscent of the world of romance novels. The contrast between the alternative character dressed in a bright hanbok and the male lead in dark attire with a black hat adds to the curiosity about their connection.
Thus, 'The Male Lead's First Night' hints at the unfamiliar atmosphere flowing between the university student possessed by the supporting role in the novel and the male protagonist through its main poster. It raises curiosity about what will happen as the MZ university student intervenes in the romance of the young couple in the novel, and where the suddenly central alternative character and the male lead, who has deviated from the path, will direct their hearts.
'The Male Lead's First Night' will premiere on June 11 at 9:50 PM.
