Lee Chae Min shared his thoughts on the ending of his popular tvN drama 'Bon Appétit, Your Majesty'. On September 30, 2025, the south Korean actor held an interview after the Saturday-Sunday drama officially ended on September 28, 2025.
'Bon Appétit, Your Majesty' is a fantasy romantic comedy drama that tells the story of a modern-day chef who travels back in time and meets a cruel king who has an absolute sense of taste.
In this drama, Lee Chae Min plays the character Lee Heon, a prince who tries to uncover the truth behind his mother's death. In the interview, Lee Chae Min expressed her feelings after the drama ended.
"Even now, I still feel like it's not over, because the impression this drama left was so strong." "Every time a project ends, there's a sense of sadness and relief, but this time I feel especially proud because the drama received so much love from the audience.
I'm also reminded of so many people to be grateful for. Overall, I feel happy," he said. He added, "This drama feels like it left a mark on me, and the people I worked with became very meaningful. It's a project that gave me a lot."
The drama 'Bon Appétit, Your Majesty' ended with a happy ending, with Lee Heon reuniting with Yeon Ji Young (played by Im Yoona) in the present. However, the process of how Lee Heon arrived in the present was not explained in detail, leading some viewers to call it a "hanging thread."
In response to this, Lee Chae Min said, "I realized there were various perspectives from the audience. As part of the production, I felt the ending was very beautiful. For me, the fact that Lee Heon reunited with Ji Young was enough to make it feel complete.
But, I also learned to see things from a different perspective thanks to the audience's response." Lee Chae Min also touched on the possibility of a second season of 'Bon Appétit, Your Majesty.' "I saw some viewers' responses asking, 'Isn't there a second season?'
That shows how much they enjoyed the drama." "I'm also curious about what a second season would be like—perhaps about Lee Heon's struggles to adapt to the modern world? But I think Lee Heon's story would be better served ending in the historical era," he said.
