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.

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.

THIS IS THE MOST ABSURD KDRAMA SERIES that I seen so far, but I LOVE IT! Every type of movie or series falls into different category who has the same rating system, and this series it has 10 stars in its category, whatever category is.
KUDOS to those who had the courage to see the potential of this webtoon comic and bring it to life "on tv", from the producers, to the actors and the company who release it, and to Netflix of course.
This show has such an absurd idea and plot that only a k-drama series can make it bright and successful. Only they can mix the comedy and seriousness this well. I recommend watching it with open mind and heart and you won't regret it.
BY THE WAY: Those who give this show less that 7 stars did not understand it, those who give it less that 4 did not like it, AND THOSE who give it 1 star... well... I don't want to say that they are from Saudi Arabia and they felt someway offended and I will not say it.

Terrific little series. Not everything has to be serious or realistic, and this made me laugh like a drain, though it is also oddly affecting. Excellent acting and writing throughout. Maybe 10 episodes is a little more than necessary but that's neither here nor there.
I've read some reviews in the press and they are, shall we say, mixed but I suppose you either like this kind of thing or you don't.
Most of the negative reviews seem to be fixated on Saudi Arabia somehow being offended. Ignore them, let them get back to their misogyny and chopping off citizens' heads while the rest of us enjoy our Chicken Nugget!

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.
