If you're a fan of period dramas that fill both your heart and your stomach (or if you're on your third rewatch of Mr. Queen), Bon Appétit, Your Majesty is your next must-watch K-drama. Based on the web comic Surviving as Yeonsangun’s Chef, the new genre-bending series follows a virtuoso cook who's magically transported from 2025 to the Joseon era when she comes upon a mysterious ancient cookbook called "Mangunrok." She lands in the crosshairs of one of Korean history's cruelest tyrants; lucky for her, the show's version is more misunderstood dreamboat than unrelenting despot.
Since its premiere on August 23, Bon Appétit, Your Majesty has become appointment viewing, earning the highest domestic ratings of any tvN drama this year and a firm spot in Netflix's Top 10 for non-English shows. With the romance K-drama airing weekly through September, it's time to learn more about the global superstars and acclaimed actors bringing the time-bending court intrigue to life. Below, learn everything you need to know about the cast of Bon Appétit, Your Majesty.
