HELLOOO I need answers!! How did Yi Heon end up in the future?!?!! 🫠🤯 #BonAppetitYourMajestyEp12#BonAppetitYourMajestyFans are asking how Yi Heon crossed into modern times, where he got money, who styled him, and how he ended up in a fancy restaurant. The Bon Appétit, Your Majesty, happy ending closed their love story, but the mystery around his journey remains. The open ending has sparked talk of another season. Reincarnated palace chefs, unsettled court conflicts, and Yi Heon’s missing backstory all leave space for more.mimi 🍉 @cosmicbilatteLINK#BonAppetitYourMajesty gave us a happy ending but left us with so many questions like how did the king get there? is he rich in the future? what happened in that flight? how many days/months was she in the hospital????Actress Yoona ❤️ SNSD Yoona @deasy_udpLINKSad ending❎Open ending❎Happy ending❎Avoidance ending✅Knetz are curious how Yi-Heon ended up in a modern era?

Becos im intrigued to know. I dont care that they’re together, I want the storyline bruh😭#BonAppetitYourMajesty🎸Arcadia 🎸 @LoveWhenever_LINKThey could have at least added one or two more episodes! Squeezing everything into the last two episodes was not a great idea. The drama however was very good overall but I believe they could have done better with the finale! I was disappointed. #BonAppetitYourMajesty☆Killa-Kira☆ @Killa_kira_LINKAm I the only one who is incredibly disappointed by the ending of #BonAppetitYourMajesty, which is illogical and utterly ridiculous for a drama that was otherwise so powerful and enjoyable?Here's how webnovel differs from Bon Appétit, Your Majesty seriesBon Appétit, Your Majesty (Image via X/@CJnDrama)Bon Appétit, Your Majesty novel’s conclusion takes a very different road from the series. While the drama ends with Yi Heon and Ji-young reuniting at a restaurant, the book pushes further, placing the characters right in modern Seoul. Yi Heon wakes up on Bukhansan Mountain, confused and unaware of cars. He runs onto the street and even gets hit by a vehicle.He then meets a restaurant tycoon. Beside the driver is his aide, revealed as Im Song-jae’s reincarnation. Instead of trouble, the businessman sees potential. He wants Yi Heon as the face of his food brand. Yi Heon agrees only if they track down Yeon Ji-young. Finding her isn’t hard as Ji-young is already a star chef in this world.Holding the last page of Mangunrok, the team reaches her restaurant, where Yi Heon (now going by Lee Yeon-san) meets her again. Yi Heon begins to adapt. He gets a haircut, smiles when strangers say it suits him, and fiddles with a smartphone. Looking himself up online leaves him annoyed. He later joins Ji-young’s restaurant as a part-timer, quickly drawing attention for his looks and lifting the place’s reputation.The tycoon sets a bigger stage. To invest in Ji-young’s restaurant, he pushes the pair into the Great Korean Cooking Battle. All the rival chefs turn out to be descendants of the royal kitchen, tying the past to the present. The side story ends in a simple but modern way. Yi Heon and Ji-young step into a photo booth, press their faces together, and take a four-cut snapshot. This marks their new beginning in this era!All 12 episodes of Bon Appétit, Your Majesty are available to stream on Netflix!
