My love of all kinds of food led me to this Korean drama. It's a recent hit, stirring up everyone who enjoys saeguk dramas with a mix of comedy and romance. Bon Appetit, Your Majesty will satisfy your cravings.
This is one of the Korean dramas I recommend watching amidst other Korean drama series, as all Korean dramas these days have a slightly headache-inducing feel, full of intrigue, like Tempest.
Bon Appetit, Your Majesty is a highly treat almost every weekend, because the story is refreshing and will keep viewers hook. Especially with Girls' Generation's Yoona's timeless visuals, always looking cheerful and youthful in every scene. Wow! Truly youthful.
source This Korean drama tells the story of a historical Joseon kingdom ruled by a real king. He's says to be a tyrant who didn't hesitate to kill anyone who opposed him, include uncovering the intrigues and who kill his biological mother. It be so exciting if that were the real story!
Wait. I thought this drama might change the real history, but it turns out, to keep the story from being misconception-ridden, it ended up being a happy ending, even though my heart wasn't ready for a sad ending.
There are many strengths to this fresh story, especially the cooking and the introduction to the food (menu) of the Joseon Dynasty. Of course, with a good palate and colorful storytelling. It's said that Yoona cooks herself, which is so cool! When else will you see Yoona, famous for her beauty, also be a skilled cook?
Unfortunately, I slightly disliked the ending, which ended up being so rushed. Meaning? They only gave Yoona and Yoona one episode to save the king when the king's power was finally taken by the next king.
Although it felt very forced, the ending was rushed, and there were many questions regarding how the king managed to time travel to 2025, it was a little annoying but enjoyable. It's like eating an unsalted steak. A little bland, even though it was made from A5 wagyu beef.
