Im Yoon-ah is receiving an explosive response by playing the role of French chef Yeon Ji-young, who time-slipped to the past at the best moment in tvN's popular Saturday-Sunday drama "The Tyrant's Chef" (directed by Jang Tae-yu).
In particular, Lim Yoon-ah, who has been praised for naturally digesting life-friendly comedy in various works such as the movie 'Collaboration' series and 'Exit', is shooting viewers' laughter by showing her unique sense of comedy without regret in this 'Treason's Chef'.
In the 6th episode, Yeon Ji-young, who was drunk, sang 'Come Back Home' of the nuns and Seo Tae-ji and the children with her earnest desire to find the mangunrok, showed the essence of Lim Yoon-ah's comedy with her eyes released in the spirit of alcohol, her sometimes emotional expression, and her performance that did not miss desperation despite her disheveled gestures.
In addition, Lim Yoon-ah is drawing attention by making her voice tone, expression, and gesture in detail even when Yeon Ji-young uses abbreviations, foreign words, and foreign languages in front of people in the past, expressing herself cheerfully and completing the scene more humorously and lovingly.
In addition, although the narration that often appears in the development of the drama is a device that can feel descriptive, Im Yoon-ah is making viewers more immersed in the play by finely melting the stable voice tone and the state of mind that fits the situation.
As such, Lim Yoon-ah is drawing criticism that `Yeon Ji-young, not Lim Yoon-ah, is unimaginable' with her solid acting skills that do not miss even a small detail. As she broke her own highest ratings every week and topped the TV comprehensive performance category for three consecutive weeks (based on Good Data Corporation Fundex), her performance in the remaining second half of the year also raises expectations.
Meanwhile, 「Chef of the Tyrant」, which shows Lim Yoon-ah's various charms, airs every Saturday and Sunday at 9:10 p.m. on tvN.
