YoonA steals hearts in 'Bon Appétit, Your Majesty', viewers say they can’t imagine Yeon Ji Young without her after charming, lifelike acting

— by

YoonA is winning viewers over with her bright, detailed acting in tvN’s weekend drama Bon Appétit, Your Majesty.

She plays Yeon Ji Young, a French chef who time-slips to the past right as her career peaks, and she leads the story with energy and heart.

In episode 5, Yeon Ji Young worries when Lee Heon (Lee Chae Min) keeps skipping meals. When he finally tastes the chicken soup she made with care, she feels both relief and pride—then gets confused by the new emotions rising inside her.

She later faces off with Kang Mok Joo (Kang Han Na) in a tense cooking showdown. Yeon Ji Young serves her special “snowflake schnitzel,” winning over not only Lee Heon but also Grand Prince Je San (Choi Gwi Hwa), delivering a refreshing victory that thrilled viewers.

Near the end, Yeon Ji Young finds the bag she’s been searching for at Jang Won Seo—brought there by Lee Heon—and bursts into happy tears.

When he stumbles, she catches him and the two fall together, ending with their faces close and the tension softly rising.

Throughout the episode, YoonA gently shows Yeon Ji Young’s changing feelings toward Lee Heon, helping viewers connect deeply with the character.

Her pure joy at finding the bag feels real and sweet, and her subtle chemistry with Lee Heon adds warmth to every scene.

Bon Appétit, Your Majesty airs on tvN every Saturday and Sunday at 9:10 p.m., and YoonA’s standout performance keeps fans coming back for more.
