Ahn Jae Hong plays his intern Go Baek Joong who has a crush on Kim Yoo Jung's character Choi Min Ah who is Choi Sun Man's daughter. One day a machine is delivered to their office that is used to release stress. It is assumed that it was the shipment that they were expecting from a certain research scholar. Just then, Min A also comes to the office to deliver fried chicken. She steps into the machine to try it out, but she turns into a piece of chicken nugget the next moment. Choi Sun Man and Go Baek Joong try their best to turn her back into her human form. On their journey, they discover dark secrets. The mystery behind the machine thickens as they slowly unravel the actual way of using it.
Chicken Nugget ending explained
As it turns out, Kim Yoo Jung's character Choi Min Ah actually did change into a chicken nugget. Moreover, it is also revealed that the machine was brought to Earth by aliens and the chicken shop was actually run by those aliens. After the final confrontation between Choi Min Ah's father Choi Sun Man, his intern Go Baek Joong, the scientist and his nephew and the aliens, the machine's power is very low. Hence the aliens conclude that they cannot change Choi Min Ah back to human and the leader has to change back into his alien form and go back to his planet to replenish the machine. But he offers to take Chi Min Ah (now a fried chicken) with him and promises to get her back in 50 years. Choi Sun Man of course does not agree with the idea at first because in 50 years he'll be long gone. But for his daughter's sake, he agrees.
After 50 years, Go Baek Joong is a big singer. He is a star. But every day he waits for Choi Min Ah's return. One day the alien does come back and informs him that the laws on his planet changed and hence he could not change Min Ah. But he gives Go Baek Joon a button which would take him back in time but also erase everyone's memories. As he loves Min Ah, he chooses to use that button.
Once again we get to see Min Ah as she gets chicken nuggets for her father and his employees. It has a hopeful ending. The open end suggests that the viewers are free to make up their own story of what might happen after the series end.
