Extraordinary Attorney Woo

Tired of superheroes? South Korean stuff. Bored to death by old and overused tropes? South Korean stuff. Cringing at awful acting? South Korean stuff. Vomited in your own mouth again thanks to a sophomoric script? South Korean stuff.

Weird Lawyer Woo Young Woo is the umpteenth example that South Korean TV regularly gets right the myriad things that Hollywood can't or won't do. Treat yourself to this all-around awesome series.

What a fantastic show, a heart-warming tale of a girl that sees the world in a unique way. She is brilliant, quirky and sweet. The legal issues in the first two episodes are puzzles of love presented in intricate stories with memorable characters that remind me of the work of Jean-Pierre Jeunet (Amélie). I'm not a fan of drama let alone Korean drama but this show I loved. Can't wait for the next episodes on Netflix.

So in a nutshell; One to watch, you won't be disappointed!

This is one of my favorite kdramas!

This story is amazing, the characters, the funny aspects and everything! Although I think there's too much whales in it XD.

This drama has to be one of the most enjoyable ones I've seen in a while since It's Okay To Not Be Okay. Just basing from the first two episodes, the drama already has so much potential with the theme. The casting is amazing, and I especially love the choices for the female and male lead (who is such a green flag by the way). While it could be said that there were some instances of exaggeration and pacing issues, it still remained as a positive and honest depiction of how autism really is for many who are on the spectrum. Another thing I like about this drama is the honesty. Instead of depicting her as some sort of detached white male savant, her intelligence seems very realistic and according to how human intelligence really does function in real life, unlike some certain depictions of autism in western media. In other words, she's smart and tops her class, but she isn't unrealistically smart.

I really hope the creators do this drama much more justice in the rest of the episodes, especially since this drama has so much potential to be on the hall of good K-dramas, especially with the Netflix promo, but with the quality we've seen in the first two episodes, I don't doubt it.

Not sure what's better the Autism theme or the acting by the main lead, she is just so cute and funny in her delivering of this character, we will see how this plays out but so far its fantastic.

With 8 episodes in have to say this is the best most enjoyable KD ive seen to date. This makes good KD look average at best.

Only two hours left and a lot to sew up this should have a great finish, come on writers dont blow it now.

Good new 2nd season announced,

If there was ever a KD series that warranted 20 episodes it's this one but we only get 16.
