Taking the Male Lead's First Night (2025)

spending the first night with the duke... or maybe prince? ?

finished 8.5/10 🌟
Personally, I really liked this story. I admit that I haven't read the webtoon and that at the time there were criticisms regarding the way it was adapted, but overall, I think it's a very good drama 👏
What I liked most was the chemistry of the protagonists
A great valid point in all was that both Seo Hyun and Taec Yeon felt very natural in their acting, extra point to the kisses that were great 🤭
The overall story was interesting and I loved Seon Chaek as a character... he had a very good growth, from trying by all means to reunite the protagonists of their favorite webtoon to fighting for their own destiny 👏
Yi Beom, although he was considered a "ruthless killer," I must say that I loved his attitude towards the protagonist; he simply fell in love with her ❤️
Now, let's get to what I didn't like:
I feel like the ending was too "perfect" in every way... for me, the villains deserved more... They didn't even have a decent performance to say: ahhh well at least he apologized 🤷
I also felt like the episode cuts took their toll on him.
Dramas like these deserve 16 episodes or more.
Some supporting characters were left adrift, and others passed unnoticed...
I still think it's an excellent drama if you're looking for some comedy and romance ✨
