Upcoming drama “Bon Appétit, Your Majesty” has shared new teasers!
Based on a popular web novel, “Bon Appétit, Your Majesty” is a fantasy romance drama starring Lim 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.
The first teaser captures Yeon Ji Young as she struggles to adapt after suddenly falling into an unfamiliar space. Her appearance, unlike anything seen in that era, draws wary glances from everyone around her. Even when she declares, “I’m from 500 years in the future,” no one believes her—and to make matters worse, she is dragged away by palace guards.
However, Yeon Ji Young does not falter and uses her honed skills as a chef to find a way to survive. She captivates King Lee Heon by serving him royal dishes with mysterious cooking techniques and menus that were unheard of in that era. At the end of the teaser, Yeon Ji Young is seen dressed in a royal chef’s uniform as she declares, “Today, I became the tyrant’s chef,” leaving viewers curious whether she will safely return to her original time.
The second teaser focuses on King Lee Heon, who encounters a mysterious “ghost woman” and becomes enchanted by her cooking. The teaser highlights Lee Heon’s absolute power. In one scene, he overturns the royal table, while in another, he enjoys hunting despite the pleas of his ministers. However, his actions seem absurd to Yeon Ji Young, who is from the future and has a modern mindset. In one scene, she bluntly rebukes him and even strikes his head with her hand.
Angered by her disrespectfulness, Lee Heon punishes Yeon Ji Young by locking her in the royal kitchen. He warns her, “If even a single day repeats the same dish or it doesn’t suit my taste—.” However, he is soon seen thoroughly enjoying the meals prepared by Ji Young, hinting that he has already fallen under the spell of her culinary skills. Viewers are left curious about which dish managed to captivate the picky King Lee Heon.
