What makes The First Night With The Duke much-awaited?

For starters, The First Night With The Duke is adapted from a webtoon (Manhwa). The past has already proven that most dramas adapted from webtoons, known as manhwas in Korean, often end up as a major success. This series, in particular, is highly awaited given it will see the beloved actor/popular singer from the K-Pop boy-band 2PM in a fantasy drama. It would also be his first time appearing in a drama since his engagement photos went viral a few months back. Thus, the hype for The First Night With The Duke is insane, but can it live up to the very hype, is the real question.

What is The First Night With The Duke all about?

The First Night With The Duke resembles W: Two Worlds Apart in many ways, including the crux of the story. Both the shows are about the female lead being dragged into the world of comics. The male lead in the comics gets attracted to her rather than the woman written for her, which make matters complicated. While in W: Two Worlds Apart, a villain had to be introduced to take the story back to where it belonged (and it involved a personal sacrifice), there's still mystery about where would the story of The First Night With The Duke lead. It begins with the very manner, but might have a different ending, one which we cannot fully predict before the entire series is out.
