Bon Appétit, Your Majesty, episode 8 focused on the second round of the cooking battle and ended with a cliffhanger that fans didn't expect. After all the hard work and praises from the judges, the episode concluded without revealing if Ji-young won the round or if the Mings are getting ahead.

Before the second round, Ji-young revealed that Ya Feixiu had stolen her red chili powder and used it in his dish. The revelation threw the competition into chaos. Despite her uncle Tang Bailong’s willingness to accept defeat in the first round, the King declared that if another tie occurred, the Mings would be crowned the winners.

This means that Ji-young only has one option: Win the cooking competition and ensure that Joseon does not lose its most popular food ingredients. This will prevent the Mings from taking control of the nation, and once again ruin Prince Jesan and Kang Mok-ju's scheme.


What to expect from Bon Appétit, Your Majesty episode 9?

Episode 9 of the Netflix K-drama Bon Appétit, Your Majesty is going to be intense as fans will learn the scores of the second round and dive into the final stage, during which Ji-young has planned to use a pressure cooker. While she was able to bring the vessel with her, the lid of the cooker was left behind at Chun-saeng's house.

However, he promised Ji-young that he would bring the lid to the palace in time, so fans can expect Chun-saeng, the great inventor from the Joseon era, to enter the palace like a saviour for Ji-young. Not only this, the preview of episode 9 also shows Consort Kang slapping the chief royal cook.

She has been hating Ji-young since the day she was brought to the palace and now wants her dead at any cost. So, Kang Mok-ju and Prince Jesan will plan to send assassins to once again attack Ji-young before the final round.

Amid all the evil plans taking place, King Lee-heon is worried about Yeon Ji-young's injury. He noticed how it troubled her during the competition and would later be seen apologizing to Ji-young for putting her in this tough position.
