A Chicken Nugget crisis with Ryu Seung-ryong and Ahn Jae-hong
by tccolb
The first promos have been freshly dished out for Netflix’s upcoming comedy-fantasy Chicken Nugget, teaming up boss Ryu Seung-ryong (Moving) and intern Ahn Jae-hong (LTNS) in order to save Kim Yoo-jung (My Demon) from becoming someone’s next takeout meal.
That’s right, our beautiful Choi Min-ah – played by Kim Yoo-jung in a special guest appearance – was just being curious about an oddly placed cabinet. But the strange contraption zaps her, turning Min-ah into a saucy piece of dakgangjeong (a sweet and spicy fried chicken dish) – which is our drama’s Korean title.

Panic thus ensues from both dad Choi Sun-man (Ryu Seung-ryong) and his employee Go Baek-joong (Ahn Jae-hong) – who has long been harboring a crush on Min-ah. I love when characters have pun-filled names and my seatbelt is strapped for what looks to be a zany ride with “only the best” dad and the “currently confessing” intern, as they try to screw their heads back on to solve our chicken mystery.
In the teaser, we also get our first glimpse of Jung Ho-yeon (Squid Game), who’ll be making a cameo as a food columnist and will hopefully be a friend for our heroes. Although not yet featured, we can also expect to see Kim Nam-hee (Family – The Unbreakable Bond) and Yang Hyun-min (My Dearest) among others in the supporting cast.
Production for the webtoon adaptation is in the talented hands of filmmaker Lee Byung-heon (Honeysweet, Be Melodramatic) in both writing and directing, who worked with both Ryu Seung-ryong and Ahn Jae-hong on prior projects. Netflix’s new comedy Chicken Nugget will be releasing next month on March 15.
