<h2>Based on the Naver webtoon of the same name, the drama is set to release on Netflix ﻿sometime this year</h2>
</div>
<div class="segment-body">
<div class="text">
<div class="">
<p>Today, 8 February, Netflix posted a teaser of the upcoming drama on Twitter, with a caption that reads &#8220;The rumours are true&#8221;.</p>
<p>The five-second teaser shows a quick snippet of the woman&#8217;s transformation, followed by scenes of her father and the man who has a crush on her holding her nugget form and wailing in misery.</p>
<p>Watch it below:</p>

<div class="">
<p>As you can see in the snippet, the cast includes the following:</p>
<p>&#8211; <b>Kim Yoo-jung</b> as Choi Min-ah, the woman who gets turned into a chicken nugget after stepping into a mysterious machine that she mistakes as a fatigue-recovery machine. Kim Yoo-jung has made a name for herself through lead roles in various hit K-dramas like <i>Love in the Moonlight</i>, <i>Lovers of the Red Sky</i>, and&nbsp;<i>My Demon</i>. Her role in <i>Chicken Nugget</i> is listed as a cameo, so we can assume that her character spends most of the drama in her nugget form.</p>
<p>&#8211; <b></b><b>Ryu Seung-ryong</b> as Choi Seon-man, the president of All Machines, the company that made the machine which ca<b></b>used Min-ah&#8217;s transformation. He is also Min-ah&#8217;s father. You may know Ryu Seung-ryong from his previous roles in <i>Kingdom</i>, <i>Moving</i>, and <i>Miracle in Cell No. 7</i>.</p>
<p>&#8211; <b>Ahn Jae-hong</b> as Baek-joong, an intern at All Machines who has a crush on Min-ah. He tries to help her father turn her back into a human. Ahn Jae-hong is probably best known for his roles in&nbsp;<i>Reply 1988</i> and <i>Fight for My Way</i>.</p>
