'Bon Appetit, Your Majesty' is garnering attention with the timeless meeting of actors Im Yoon-ah (as Yeon Ji-young), Lee Chae-min (as Lee Heon), Kang Han-na (as Kang Mok-joo), Choi Gwi-hwa (as Je San Daegun), Seo Yi-suk (as In Ju-daebi), and Oh Ui-sik (as Lim Song-jae). Furthermore, director Jang Tae-yoo, who has recorded an unbeaten myth in historical dramas like 'The Painter of the Wind', 'Deep-rooted Tree', 'Hong Chun-ki', and 'Flowers Bloom at Night', takes the helm to complete a food fantasy romantic comedy genre. Having seen the teamwork of the actors through 'Bon Appetit, Your Majesty Special Golden Entry Ceremony', anticipation is already building for 'Bon Appetit, Your Majesty' to be completed with the flavorful synergy of the actors and the director.
POINT. 2 Anticipation for the sweet romance between a chef risking everything for food and a tyrant with absolute taste!
In the drama, head chef Yeon Ji-young (played by Im Yoon-ah) suddenly crashes in the past due to certain circumstances and becomes deeply intertwined with the tyrant Lee Heon (played by Lee Chae-min). She is appointed as the royal chef preparing meals exclusively for the king Lee Heon after being the chef of a three-star restaurant. Under the terrifying condition that she will face severe punishment if she fails to satisfy the king's taste, Yeon Ji-young is set to take on the royal kitchen with fusion cuisine like never seen before, utilizing all her honed culinary skills.
Despite the unfamiliarity of her name and appearance, Yeon Ji-young's dishes gradually begin to seep into Lee Heon's heart with excellent flavors. This raises curiosity about how their sweet romance, sharing flavors and emotions through cooking, will develop.
POINT. 3 A spicy psychological warfare for the peak of power, intensifying tension!
The power struggles within the palace centered around Lee Heon, the crown prince, are also drawing attention. Concubine Kang Mok-joo (played by Kang Han-na) harbors ambitions to seize power backed by Lee Heon's favor. Additionally, there are various forces forming a tense atmosphere surrounding King Lee Heon, including the cruel-hearted Je San Daegun (played by Choi Gwi-hwa), who hides a brutal temperament behind a cheerful smile, the royal elder In Ju-daebi (played by Seo Yi-suk), and Do Seung-ji Lim Song-jae (played by Oh Ui-sik).
Above all, the continuous psychological warfare within the palace is expected to have a significant impact on the survival culinary battle of chef Yeon Ji-young from the future. It remains to be seen what the outcome of the psychological warfare for the peak of power will be as their movements are closely watched.
POINT. 4 A feast of sensory fusion cuisine presented by the ghostly female royal chef, stimulating the salivary glands!
In 'Bon Appetit, Your Majesty', a variety of fusion dishes presented by the ghostly female royal chef Yeon Ji-young to captivate the king's palate will unfold. The dishes, completed by adding modern cooking techniques to the pristine royal cuisine that preserves the original texture and taste of the ingredients, are expected to stimulate viewers' appetites with their exquisite taste and visuals.
The 'Bon Appetit Dining' event, where attendees could taste such dishes in advance, closed early with a high competition rate of 230:1, reflecting its popularity. In fact, it is rumored that actors Lee Chae-min, Seo Yi-suk, Park Joon Myun, and Lee Joo-an, along with director Jang Tae-yoo, expressed satisfaction with the food at the venue. Therefore, anticipation is building for the first broadcast of 'Bon Appetit, Your Majesty', which is set to stimulate everyone's salivary glands with the ghostly female royal chef's fusion dishes.
