One Chef. One Tyrant. One Royal Mess – Netflix is serving up a bold new twist on K-romcom with Bon Appétit, Your Majesty , launching globally on August 23. Starring Lim Yoon-a ( King the Land, Big Mouth ) and rising star Lee Chae-min ( Crash Course in Romance, Hierarchy ) this high-stakes fantasy rom-com blends sizzling chemistry, time-slip drama, and mouthwatering royal intrigue.
In the newly released main trailer, world-class chef Yeon Ji-young (Lim Yoon-a) is unexpectedly transported from a French culinary competition to the royal palace of the tyrant King Yi Heon (Lee Chae-min). With no way back home, she decides to go all-in—serving up bold words and even bolder dishes.
From sizzling steak to perfect pasta, Ji-young’s never-before-seen creations leave the king awestruck… and his court in chaos. But winning the king’s taste buds comes at a price – rivalries ignite, jealous eyes sharpen, and the threat of royal punishment looms.
Will this fiery chef survive the palace’s cut-throat politics and return to her own time? Or will she find herself serving more than just food?
Bon Appétit, Your Majesty premieres August 23, only on Netflix.
