Based on a popular web novel, “Bon Appétit, Your Majesty” is a fantasy romance drama starring YoonA as Yeon Ji Young, an award-winning French chef who winds up traveling 500 years back into the past. There, she meets despotic king Lee Heon (Lee Chae Min), who is known as the worst of tyrants—and who also happens to be a discerning gourmet.
In the newly released stills, Yeon Ji Young is seen mysteriously transported to the royal kitchen of the distant past, sparking curiosity about how this unexpected situation unfolds.
Dressed in the traditional attire of a sooksoo—a royal chef responsible for preparing food during palace feasts—Yeon Ji Young displays commanding charisma as she leads the royal kitchen staff. She asserts her authority as head chef while preparing a royal meal with a solemn expression, inspecting ingredients with a focused gaze, and warming up her hands before cooking.
Her gentle smile also draws attention as she demonstrates how to enjoy her fusion dishes, which combine modern cooking techniques with traditional royal cuisine. Despite being in an unfamiliar time and place, she confidently showcases her culinary skills, raising anticipation over whether she can satisfy the palates of those inside the palace.
French chef Yeon Ji Young, who has time-slipped into the past, begins a challenging battle for survival inside the palace, where fierce political intrigue unfolds. In particular, the person she must serve royal cuisine to is a tyrant known for his violent temper and picky palate, making her task anything but easy. As Yeon Ji Young faces a high-stakes, cook-or-die situation, expectations are rising for her intense royal cuisine survival journey.
Attention is also building around Lim YoonA’s bold performance as she portrays Yeon Ji Young, a 21st-century chef navigating a chaotic life in the palace. She is expected to elevate the drama with her flavorful acting, drawing viewers even deeper into the story.
