In the seventh episode of tvN's Saturday-Sunday drama 『The Tyrant's Chef" (directed by Jang Tae-yu), which aired on the 13th, Lee Chae-min reaffirmed the true value of the romance comedy genre by maximizing the charm of the character, including friendly, pleasant, sometimes intense, and serious aspects.
On this day, when Yeon Ji-young (Im Yoon-ah) left the court to prepare a special cooking tool for the confrontation with Myeong, Lee Hun (Lee Chae-min) accompanied Lim Song-jae (Oh Si-sik) and eventually went on the road in person due to anxiety. Lee Hun, who found the eccentric engineer Jang Chun-saeng (Ko Chang-seok), showed a momentary temper at his attitude and revealed his tyrant-like appearance, but he finally got the cauldron he wanted and turned on the green light for the cooking confrontation with the master. However, on the way back to the palace, when Yeon Ji-young was in crisis due to the plot of Prince Jesan (Choi Gui-hwa), he fought fiercely against his own audience, which gave a clue to his love for Yeon Ji-young. The ending of the two, who arrived at the venue late after many twists and turns, instilled both tension and interest in the development of the play.
Lee Chae-min is approaching viewers by giving his character his own charm. The deeper the heart toward Yeon Ji-young, the more she filled the character with loveliness without hiding affection and jealousy, and her charisma as a king, which is revealed at every moment, and the more fun of the play was doubled with colorful colors, with a human aspect in the scene where she recited the name of an unfamiliar dish.
In addition, in the scene where she confronted her audience to protect Yeon Ji-young, she captivated viewers by adding a grim expression and an action enthusiastic performance that does not spare her body, and sincere eyes and detailed emotions that cherish Yeon Ji-young are raising expectations by carefully building romance narratives. Attention is being paid to Lee Chae-min, who is in charge of the weekend's small screen with Lee Hun's customized performance in each episode, and Lee Hun's life and love to be depicted in the future.
The drama 『The Tyrant's Chef』, which is leading an exciting development with a character that properly tastes like Lee Chae-min's Rocco, airs every Saturday and Sunday at 9:10 p.m. on tvN.
