Will the extra character Seo Hyun shake up the world?

KBS 2TV’s Wednesday-Thursday drama ‘I Stole the Male Lead ‘is catching the attention of viewers by humorously depicting the possession story of K(Seo Hyun), a real-life college student who suddenly finds herself inside her favorite novel one day.

In particular, the secondary character Cha Seon-Cheok(Seo Hyun), who has K’s soul, wanted to enjoy the life of a rich person and watch the original story unfold, but she deviated from the path drastically starting from her first night with the male lead Lee Jun(Ok Taecyeon).From the moments when she tried to avoid the wedding to the story of how she ultimately decided to accept it, we organized her eventful involvement in the original story into a timeline.

Destruction of the Confucian worldview

The next best thing was that he wanted to witness the fateful first meeting between the male lead, Lee Jun, and the female lead, Jo Eun-ae(Kwon Han-sol), so he attended the gathering where the scene would unfold.However, as soon as the meeting began, he could not stand the situation where the villainess Do-hwa-seon(Ji Hye-won)was pushing her beloved Jo Eun-ae, and suddenly introduced a bomb drink from the real world, drawing attention to himself.

After that, the second choice, who had left the place while drunk, gave warm comfort to the cold-blooded male protagonist, I-beon, whom he had met by chance, by pointing out his wounds and loneliness through the eyes of a devoted reader.I-beon, whose heart was moved by those words, accepted the second choice as a special person who understood his heart, and the relationship that began that way continued straight until the first night, opening the prelude to a romance that deviated from the path.

O The charging male lead vs the running away supporting actor

After the first night, he began to show a sweet and cruel obsession with the second choice, not the female lead.He sent a fortune teller to express his intention to propose, and did not hesitate to threaten the second choice, saying that stealing the virginity of a relative was treason.He continued his no-break straight line, going back and forth between affection and madness, to the point where he went to the mountain tiger to get herbs after hearing that his energy was low.

In response, the second choice tried all sorts of tricks to turn back the flow of the original story.First, he tried various escapes in the hope that his feelings would cool down this time, but his obsession only flared up like a fire.Finally, he tried to recreate the fateful first meeting between Jo Eun-ae and him, but this time, he maintained a cold attitude toward Jo Eun-ae and only looked at the second choice with affection.In this way, all the scenarios she had painstakingly prepared collapsed in vain.

Entering O-main character mode

In the midst of this, a decisive change came over the second choice’s feelings.When he heard the news that she had been captured by soldiers with suspected symptoms of the plague, he ran to her without hesitation and quietly held her in his arms, nursing her with all his heart, as she blamed herself for changing her story and dying.Under his sincere care, even at the risk of danger, the second choice’s heart began to waver.

After that, the next choice, who had been in a good mood, heard the news that virgins were being accepted all over the city for this wedding, so after a moment of hesitation, he immediately jumped up and ran out.He had decided to go all-in on the remaining scenes for Lee-beom, who had stayed by his side until the end.Expectations are high for what kind of story she will write as she decides to break away from her supporting role as an observer and become the female protagonist this time.

‘I Stole the Male Lead’s First Night’ airs every Wednesday and Thursday at 9:50 PM.
