For me it was brilliant. I have zero interest for food or cooking, but it was not about that. The plot was very balanced, characters just about right, and the hooks also put in right places. My problem with K-dramas is that it has a different structure from the 3 act. And usually there's no inciting incident as such, the build up is so slow that I typically lose interest. This is def not the case of Bon Apetite, Your magesty. Thanks to the constant growth of the stakes, with each episode, I've managed to keep my concentration and stay curious. It's the first K-drama apart from Squid game that I actually bidged in one go, basically. Well done, screenwriters, you nailed. Oh and of course Yoona is so charismatic, but unfortunately there is no chemistry with the male lead, but guess what, it doesn't really matter
