"The angst is going to be so good": Fans hail Yoona and Lee Chae-min’s chemistry in Bon Appétit, Your Majesty

K-drama enthusiasts cannot stop talking about the crackling chemistry between Yoona and Lee Chae-min in Bon Appétit, Your Majesty. Only two episodes are out, and the show has reached heights on Netflix around the globe.

A fan on X (earlier Twitter) praised a scene from Episode 1, and wrote:

"My dearly beloved, if you were to read this someday, may you come back to my side?" The angst is going to be so good, and I’m here for it!!

While Yoona has starred in several dramas like King the Land, Big Mouth, Running Man, and more, her co-star Lee Chae-min is a rising star whom fans are loving as King Lee-heon in Bon Appétit, Your Majesty. Lee's performance has proved that he's a talented actor.

Interestingly, he wasn't the first choice to play the lead role in this tvN drama. Queen of Tears star Park Sung-hoon was finalized, but he had to leave due to controversy during the Squid Game Season 2 release.

Eventually, the role was secured by Lee Chae-min, who was able to manage his stress with the help of his co-stars' support and guidance. And now, Lee is winning hearts in this new K-drama, and fans hope for the King to soon fall in love with Yoona's Yeon Ji-young.

Ji-young read a few lines from an ancient cookbook of the Joseon era, and ended up in the same dynasty. There, she met King Lee-heon, but since Ji-young thought it was a dream, she didn't believe him. In fact, Ji-young beat up the King and tied him.

By the end of Episode 1, Ji-young realized that time-travel actually happened, and now she's in the past. The King has taken her to the palace and will make Ji-young the head chef. She's ordered to make a new dish every day, failing to which can lead to her death.

The K-drama has perfectly blended comedic moments and an engaging story so far. The King might eventually fall in love with her, and the book Ji-young read might be the one he wrote for her to come back.
