The highly anticipated upcoming romance drama “Tastefully Yours” has officially kicked off production—and fans are already buzzing with excitement after the release of behind-the-scenes footage from its first script reading session. With a charming storyline, a stellar cast, and heartwarming chemistry, this drama promises to deliver a delightful blend of comedy, food, and love.

A Taste of Romance in Jeonju

“Tastefully Yours” tells the story of Han Beom Woo (played by Kang Ha Neul), a chaebol heir with a fine palate and an obsession with culinary perfection, and Mo Yeon Joo (played by Go Min Si), a passionate and stubborn chef who operates a humble one-table restaurant in Jeonju. Despite their stark differences in background and food philosophy, fate brings them together to co-run a small eatery—where they slowly begin to influence each other’s worlds and fall in love.

The drama will explore not just their romantic journey, but also the heartwarming and humorous stories that unfold in a kitchen where flavors clash, sparks fly, and healing takes place.

A Dynamic Script Reading Session

During the script reading, the cast showcased impeccable synergy, despite it being their very first group session. Director Park Dan Hee and writer Jung Soo Yoon led the room, while the main cast—including Kang Ha Neul, Go Min Si, Kim Shin Rok, and Yoo Su Bin—brought their characters to life with expressive and emotionally rich performances.

Kang Ha Neul was immediately captivating as Han Beom Woo, portraying a complex character with layers of arrogance, wit, and hidden vulnerability. His sharp delivery and comical expressions brought a refreshing twist to the role of a cold chaebol heir who’s obsessed with earning the coveted three stars from the fictional Diamant Guide—a nod to global fine-dining accolades.

Go Min Si equally wowed with her portrayal of Mo Yeon Joo, a spirited chef with a fiery personality and a deep-rooted devotion to cooking. Her use of regional dialect added depth and authenticity, making her character feel both grounded and endearing. The clash between her down-to-earth cooking values and Beom Woo’s elite expectations is expected to be a major point of charm in the series.

Supporting Cast Adds Flavor

Kim Shin Rok, known for her nuanced acting, impressed with her role as Jin Myung Sook—a shy but steadfast woman with 15 years of experience in a traditional gukbap (rice soup) restaurant. Her subtle expressions and gentle tone during the reading left a lasting impression.

Yoo Su Bin brought humor and heart as Shin Choon Seung, a goofy yet kind-hearted heir to a gukbap restaurant legacy. His light-hearted energy and natural comedic timing had the room in stitches, hinting at the comic relief he’ll bring throughout the series.

Chemistry and Comedy to Look Forward To

The atmosphere at the script reading was vibrant and full of laughter. The cast’s interactions—marked by playful banter, sincere emotional exchanges, and natural chemistry—suggest that “Tastefully Yours” won’t just be a typical romance drama. Instead, it’s shaping up to be a heartfelt, humorous journey that will explore love, ambition, and the healing power of food.

The released video gives viewers a sneak peek into the infectious energy behind the scenes, with the actors fully immersed in their roles despite it being only the first read-through. Fans are already commenting on how seamlessly the actors embody their characters, raising expectations for a drama that feels both relatable and refreshingly original.
