Has The First Night With the Duke been renewed for Season 2? Here's what we know:
Renewed Or Cancelled? The First Night With the Duke is an intriguing, quirky K-drama, taking the typical comedy and romance vibes, then adding in a touch of fantasy for good measure. If you've been following this one, you may be wondering if this has been renewed or cancelled. Here's what we know: What is The First Night With The Duke about? Cha Sun-chaek, a modern-day university student, is suddenly transported into her favourite historical romance novel, where she becomes Cha Seon Chaek—a minor noblewoman who longs for a peaceful, uneventful life. Her fate takes an unexpected turn when she spends a night with Lee Beon, the novel's brooding male lead from royal lineage, known for his striking looks, martial prowess, and tragic past. While trying to comfort him, an emotional bond forms between them that begins to shift the original storyline. Determined to restore the plot, Cha Seon Chaek attempts to bring Lee Beon and the novel's heroine, Jo Eun Ae, together. However, her presence alters the course of events, and no matter what she does, Lee Beon's affections continue to return to her. We have ongoing coverage of First Night With The Duke across the site including recaps for the season. You can check those out HERE! Has The First Night With The Duke been renewed for season 2? At the time of writing, KBS2 have not renewed The First Night With The Duke for season 2. Given the ratings over the weeks, it'll be interesting to see if they actually do renew this for a follow-up. The ratings began with a respectable 3.3% share nationwide but since then, the show has been increasing in popularity with every passing week, with the later episodes hovering around the same all season long, with highs of 3.4% nationwide. Regardless of ratings, it's extremely rare to find Korean dramas renewed for another season. That has changed in recent years but given the sheer wealth of talent in this that are sure to move onto other projects, we predict that The First Night With The Duke will not be renewed for a second season. On top of that, this is billed as a limited series which only has 1 season. We'll be sure to update this section with more details as they become available. What we know about season 2 so far: Barely anything is known about season 2 right now. Given most Korean dramas are reserved to one season, it's rare to find these sort of shows renewed. With the rare exception of ongoing Netflix shows (Love ft. Marriage and Divorce, Hospital Playlist etc.) then it seems unlikely that this one will be renewed. Having said that though, we have seen Taxi Driver and Tale of the Nine Tailed renewed recently, alongside Alchemy of Souls too. Given how steady the ratings are for this series, could we see this one buck the trend? It seems very unlikely that The First Night With The Duke will, but you never know! We'll be sure to update this section when we know more. Would you like to see The First Night With The Duke return for a second season? Or do you think the story has run its course?
