Netflix has unveiled new stills of “Chicken Nugget”!

“Chicken Nugget” is a brand new comedic mystery series about Choi Sun Man (Ryu Seung Ryong), who strives to bring back his daughter Min Ah (Kim Yoo Jung), who turned into a chicken nugget after entering a mysterious machine. Ahn Jae Hong stars as the intern Ko Baek Joong, who has a crush on Min Ah, and Jung Ho Yeon portrays Hong Cha, Korea’s best food columnist.

Ryu Seung Ryong, who plays the role of Choi Sun Man, a man who carefully protects the chicken nugget he suspects to be his daughter, shared, “Although my daughter turned into a chicken nugget, I immersed myself [into thinking] that the chicken nugget is my daughter in order to put in effort to not act fake.” He continued, “When doing comedic acting, I tend to pursue the unexpected and go beyond imagination and sterotypes, and I think that was incorporated well into this project.”
