It tells the strange story of how a beautiful young girl, Choi Min Ah, turns into fried chicken because she happens to enter a mysterious machine. It follows Choi Sun Man, her father, and Go Baek Jung, an intern, who join efforts to turn her back to human and discover deep dark secrets in the process.

Eclectic personalities, exaggerated physical comedy with music frequently incorporated, silly humor by top tier cast members. Wordplay central to much of the humor.
Pegasus Market has a lot of social commentary built into it and tells a deeper story than the silly facade implies. Chicken Nugget does not have any such aspiration. ;)

Lee Byung Hun is the screenwriter and director of both, and Ahn Jae Yong is the ML in them. Chicken Nugget makes some amusing references to Be Melodramatic including playing the Shampoo Song (one of the 7+ versions) from it. There is wacky comedy in both though Be Melodramatic has much more serious content as well, Chicken Nugget sticking to the goofy comedy.
