- Description: Forget fairytale princesses; Cha Seon-taek's reincarnation into a minor novel character delivers a far more compelling romance. "The First Night with the Duke," created by 全善英 and starring a captivating cast including Seohyun, Ok Taec-yeon, and Kwon Han-sol, transcends the typical K-drama trope.

The chemistry between Seohyun and Ok Taec-yeon crackles with an intensity that anchors the fantastical premise, grounding the story in relatable human emotion.
