🎭 Plot / Premise
Yeon Ji-yeong is a modern, accomplished French cuisine chef. After winning a big culinary competition, she finds a mysterious cookbook that magically sends her back in time — to the Joseon dynasty.
Once in Joseon, she ends up in the royal kitchen of King Yi Heon — a monarch known for being tyrannical and unforgiving, but also with an extremely refined palate.
Facing culture shocks, palace politics, and danger, Ji-yeong must cook dishes that satisfy this capricious, gourmet king. Her survival depends not just on her cooking skills, but on winning his favor, navigating intrigue, and trying to figure out how (or whether) she can go back to her own time.

Prince Je Seon — involved in palace intrigue. He has his own schemes and represents threat/power rivalries.

🔍 Themes & What Makes It Interesting
modern chef in a traditional past. Her knowledge of modern cooking + ingredients vs what’s available in Joseon makes for both comedic and dramatic conflict.
Culinary vs. royal politics: Appeasing the king’s palate isn’t just about flavor; it often has stakes (life or death), symbolism, politics.
Romance with power dynamics: Ji-yeong isn’t just a passive figure — she pushes back, surprises the king; the relationship is built on both conflict and respect.
Identity & survival: Not only does she want to return to her time, but she has to deal with repercussions of being from outside, balancing ethics, and friendship/loyalty in a harsh royal court.
Food as story-telling: Each dish tells something about history, culture, and character. Her culinary creativity becomes her means of influence and connection.
