What is Netflix’s Bon Appétit, Your Majesty About?

Bon Appétit, Your Majesty follows Yeon Ji-yeong (played by K-pop idol and actress Im Yoon-ah), a modern chef who is transported to the Joseon dynasty during a solar eclipse. She lands in King Yi Heon’s court, a ruler scarred by loss and vengeance. Initially mistrusted, Ji-yeong earns a place as palace chef by combining modern methods with traditional flavors.
