Helmed by “Extreme Job” and “Melo Is My Nature” director Lee Byung Heon, “Chicken Nugget” is a comedic mystery series about Choi Sun Man (Ryu Seung Ryong) as he teams up with Ko Baek Joong to bring back his daughter Min Ah (Kim Yoo Jung), who has turned into a chicken nugget after a mishap with a mysterious machine.
