Yes, a group of assassins end their own lives upon being beaten in battle to avoid information leaking to their enemies and in episode 10, the Grand Queen Dowager makes the royal cook promise she will end her own life if she hasn't proven her own innocence in 3 days time.

One of the Ming cooks struggles to eat in the judging portion of the third round. There is nothing too upsetting going on and it is quickly resolved, but they do mention that he might be anorexic. The explanation of the disease is very factual and non-specific and the cook eventually does eat when the dish is served in a less fancy way.

No, but almost. In an early episode, after cook Yeon wins a cooking competition against two other royal cooks, they almost have their hands chopped off. (but it doesn't happen in the end)

There are lots of eating noises, cutlery hitting teeth etc. Might be an uncomfortable watch for people with misophonia.

yes but not intentionally. The mother of the king was dragged out of the palace and her then young son is left behind, desperately crying for his mother.

But the king does suffer from some sort of mood disorder. He gets very angry when he gets overwhelmed, this only happens once though and it is not very impactful.

I suppose the king has a bit of a meltdown at some point when the stress gets to him. But he feels better after eating a bowl of pasta.

No, but there is quite some violence committed against women. They are taken from their homes as part of a historic judgement by the king and the protagonists also deal with imprisonment, torture and harassment for being women.

The young prince after getting his medicine, throws up the medicine. It is short but visual and there is sound of his gag and the liquid falling on the floor. It does not look like vomit though, it looks like soy sauce or coca cola. It happens around 55 minutes.
