If I have a world where I havent entered the nether, and only walked around 5 chunks - 10 chunks in overworld would the new update add to my world in unexplored chunks? Does it have to be unexplored for them to put it in
I strongly suggest you read the rules and use the search bar, as this is redundancy and spam (it is the 2nd topic you made of the same thing) you also double posted.
The only thing changed in terms of generation is the new mushroom biome, but the answer is yes to your question. It has to be unexplored.

Religion, has actually convinced people, that there's an invisible man, living in the sky, who watches everything you do every minute of the day, and the invisible man has a special list. Of 10 things he doesn't want you to do. And if you do ANY of these ten things he has a special place, full of fire, and smoke, and burning, and torture, and will send you there to suffer and choke and scream for all of eternity... But he still loves you.

For structures, yes, the chunks have to be unexplored.
Keep in mind that a certain number of chunks around the chunk you're actually walking in will also generate at the same time. You can see this if you're filling in a new map as it generates the terrain ahead of you and off to each side as well. That means that although you've only walked through 5 chunks, about 9 chunks (144 blocks) in every direction away from the five chunks have also already generated. Since the nether is only about 1/3 the size of the overworld, you may have already generated much of it.

Didnt go there yet. But like would I get all the new features on my world even with all chunks explored? I would only lose out on mushroom biome

No, the program will not overwrite any terrain that has already been generated simply because it would have no idea whether that terrain is the stuff you want to keep or not or whether it would be deleting your home base in the process. The only biome being added this time round is the mushroom one, so that is the only thing that would not be found in a fully explored 1.8.2 overworld.
