YoonA is unstoppable. The Bon Appétit, Your Majesty lead has ranked No.1 in drama buzz for four consecutive weeks, proving her star power is in full force.
In the tvN weekend hit, YoonA plays French chef Yeon Ji Young, who time-slips into the past and crosses paths with king Lee Heon (Lee Chae Min). Viewers are praising her commanding performance, sharp cooking skills, and resilient charm as she navigates a strange era.
Adding to the realism, YoonA reportedly handles most of the cooking-competition scenes herself—from prepping ingredients to intricate motions—while serving looks in royal chef gear, hanbok, and even a scholar-style disguise each episode.
The momentum shows in numbers: by episode 8, the drama recorded nationwide 15.4% (peak 17.4%) and metropolitan 15.8% (peak 18.1%), marking the highest tvN drama ratings of 2025 so far.
YoonA also ranks No.1 in overall TV–OTT and TV–OTT drama buzzworthy actor lists (Good Data Fundex) for four weeks running, and after her candid guest spot on You Quiz on the Block, she even placed No.2 in the non-drama category.
Bon Appétit, Your Majesty airs Saturdays and Sundays at 9:10 PM KST on tvN.
