Actor Lee Chae-min Discusses the Ending of 'Bon Appétit, Your Majesty'

Actor Lee Chae-min recently shared his thoughts on the conclusion of 'Bon Appétit, Your Majesty.'

In a recent interview at a café in Gangnam, Seoul, Lee Chae-min, who stars in tvN's 'Bon Appétit, Your Majesty,' discussed the show's finale.

tvN's new weekend drama 'Bon Appétit, Your Majesty' is a survival fantasy romantic comedy about a chef who time-slips to the past at the peak of his career and meets a king known for his tyrannical rule and exceptional taste. In the series, Lee Chae-min plays Yeon Hee-gun Lee Heon, a character with the potential to be a good king but is known as a tyrant due to his fiery and prickly nature.

The final episode of 'Bon Appétit, Your Majesty,' which aired on the 28th, concluded with the tyrant Lee Heon (played by Lee Chae-min) traveling to the present day and reuniting with Yeon Ji-young (played by Lim Yoon-a) for a happy ending. However, some viewers expressed disappointment over the lack of explanation regarding how Lee Heon was able to travel to the present.

When asked about how Lee Heon managed to come to the present, Lee Chae-min said, "I believe it was ultimately the power of love that brought him here. As someone who read the script and acted it out, I found it convincing. Having gone through the journey with Ji-young, I think love was what helped Mang Un-rok assist him."

Lee Chae-min added with a smile, "In the final epilogue, Lee Heon makes bibimbap for Yeon Ji-young. Watching him cook, I thought it would be nice if he became Ji-young's assistant chef or pursued something related to cooking with her."
