Following the soaring popularity of Bon Appétit, Your Majesty, the production team and cast are set to celebrate their success with a well-deserved reward vacation to Da Nang, Vietnam. As reported by My Daily on September 26, 2025, the drama’s staff and cast members will embark on the trip at the end of October, marking a joyful close to the hit series. The production team is currently finalizing the itinerary and participant list for the upcoming getaway.
A vacation wish come true for YoonA and the cast
Lead actress YoonA had previously expressed her hopes for such a reward trip during the drama’s wrap-up party. Standing on a chair, she playfully shouted,
“Bon Appétit, Your Majesty, big hit! Let’s go on a reward vacation!”
Her wish has now officially been granted, thanks to the show’s explosive reception both domestically and internationally.
Co-star Lee Chae Min, who stars alongside YoonA in the time-slip culinary romance, is also expected to join the celebratory trip. The chemistry between the two leads, paired with the series’ fresh mix of royal intrigue, food artistry, and heartfelt romance, has made Bon Appétit, Your Majesty one of the biggest sensations of the year.
From modest beginnings to record-breaking ratings
Initially premiering with a 4.9% nationwide viewership rating, the weekend drama quickly gained momentum, climbing to an impressive 15.8% with its latest episodes. The series has not only dominated domestic charts but has also topped international “most buzzworthy drama” rankings for consecutive weeks. Both YoonA and Lee Chae Min have held leading spots in actor popularity indexes, reflecting their growing fanbase across Asia.
What’s next in the story
In the penultimate week of airing, the tension peaked as Yeon Ji Young (YoonA) and King Lee Heon (Lee Chae Min) faced political upheaval and emotional trials. The royal cook triumphed in a high-stakes culinary face-off against Ming Dynasty chefs, only to be falsely accused of poisoning the King’s stepbrother. However, the King’s faith in her ultimately cleared her name — a pivotal moment that showcased their deepening love and loyalty.
As the finale approaches, viewers can expect to see Yeon Ji Young’s heartfelt attempt to return to her original timeline, while a brewing revolution led by royal consort Kang Mok Ju threatens the palace’s peace.
