It's funny that people are rating it either 10/10 or 1/10. Shows starts well with the little fun idea of what is a person turns into a chicekn nugget . They could have kept it short and funny but dragged it too long and took themselves too seriously towards the later episodes. I was getting bored and just wanted it to get finished but they keep on dragging without any material like this review where I am repeating same things just to reach the required chracters. Acting was real good and can make one feel for the chicken nugget too lol. The ending, last 2-3 minutes, ruined the whole show as the story made no point the way it ended.

I literally found it quite funny when I first saw the trailer. I was so damn free that I decided to start watching the show.

Some moments were funny ( yes they were decently hilarious) but the plot is actually stupid. Okay even if the plot is stupid, I accept the insanity but making 10 episodes out of it is what is more ridiculous ( in my opinion 2-3 episodes were sufficient to cover the whole storyline: aliens and machine). It was dragged a lot.

It's quite weird why Netflix invested in such a stupid show, putting the acting, time and efforts of such marvelous actors to waste. Even the supporting actors are good and I think that a better show could be made with such a wonderful caste.

Overall, a waste of time for viewers as well as the artists & staff team.

I loved this show! It was so funny and unexpected. The actors were so good and their characters were really endearing. Yes, it's quirky. Yes, it's confusing at times. But I enjoyed it much more than I expected. I have to admit though that I'm not a fan of the usual K-dramas. So, if you love most K-dramas, this might not be your thing. But personally I'm happy to see the writers getting creative and trying something other than two lovers where one has a terminal illness.

ALSO this show was reviewed bombed everywhere. Don't believe the negative reviews, especially the ones that are pissed about the reference to Saudi Arabia. Was that joke offensive? Yes. Was it necessary? Absolutely not. But it also doesn't occur until the LAST 10 mins of the VERY LAST EPISODE. So anyone claiming to be mad "after that episode," clearly did not watch the show at all. "Worst Korean drama ever" is an unfair assessment for a single one-off joke that lasted 2 mins.

It's quite a funny webtoon based series about a girl who turned into a chicken nugget. The series is about her dad and guy with a crush trying to get her back. Too bad they used Kim You-jeong as a kind of "click bait" to lure people into watching as she had only a very minimal role in the whole series. I would have had different expectations if I had known before hand.

It's funny how the series throws in all kind of themes but doesn't really have the story, time or budget to get into more detail. For example, like any self respecting k-drama, it has a connection with the Joseon era, just like the big boys! But, of course, as with all the other elements, without much depth and not even that useful. In that regard, a lot of themes seem satirical, rather than for the story.

Conclusion: Although a bit clumsy, still worth the watch.

7 / 10.

Korean Drama '' Chicken Nugget '' is a crazy fantasy-sci fi - comedy about a crazy-out-of-the-box adventure.

The drama is short and it manages to handle smoothly the story, which could have been all over the place and become ridiculous quite easily. Hence, the story ends up being odd, yes, but enjoyable enough.

The pace was, in addition, pretty fast, but suited the story. The CGI was pretty good as well. Also, the action scenes were entertaining and well-executed. Moreover, the story had some sensitive-sweet parts which were mostly referred to the family drama.

Finally, the performances were all great by every actor and actress in the cast and the cameos were enjoyable.

So, overall, six out of ten.
