SO FREAKING GOOD AND ADORABLE

BTW; This doesn't contain any spoilers but it can spoil the dynamics between the characters and such.

I barely have any negative comments for this tbh, it's just so good. Binged watched the whole thing in less than 5 days (I was on break I swear I have a life). Okay, I said I don't have any negative thing to say but tbh I can be a bit stereotypical sometimes, but other than that it was an amazing show. Got really emotional sometimes, her dynamic with Junho was really sweet, really loved how he was so patient and understanding with her despite the lack of attention she gave him... AND PLEASE HER FRIENDSHIP WITH GEURAMI, please I strive to have something like they do. Kinda did have a bit of a crush on Minwoo when he wasn't being a b*tch but anyways... He and Suyeon were cute (once again when they weren't being major b*tches T-T)
All the characters had great chemistry with each other; romantic, platonic...etc and the acting was chef's kiss as well. Definitely one of my all time favourite K-dramas, It's sooo good would definitely recommend it.

PS: I don't pay attention to OSTs and music in dramas so don't completely trust my rating on that.

A gem which I have been hesitating to watch for a long time

Thanks to that one edit I came across in IG which made me watch this beautiful series finally. Cmon guys! give it a try you won't be disappointed. All the laughters, sweet moments and blushing I felt while I watched this series will be staying in my heart permanently. Casting was so perfect and I am waiting for season 2 already.

This show definitely exceeded the hype surrounding it, what's not to love?!? Park Eun Bin is damn amazing as the autistic attorney who was struggling to fit in a cut-throat industry where everyone sees her diagnosis as a hindrance, rather than as a gift. Young Woo's tenacity to be self-sufficient was partly thanks to her father who has devoted his life encouraging Young Woo to be the person she wants to be. Kang Tae Oh delivers as Lee Joon Ho, the kind litigator who does not hold any prejudices (unlike most people in their society) and sometimes find Young Woo's quirks endearing. I love the camaraderie among the legal crew although some of them may have ulterior motives in befriending Young Woo, but in the end, they put aside their selfish wants to become better people. The drama is nail-biting to watch as Young Woo unravels case after case with the help of her colleagues, and it was fascinating to see how Young Woo matures and overcomes her social disability to reach her full potential.

Extraordinary, heartwarming, cute and fun!

I will definitely miss this gem.

I will miss the casts and everything. Now I don't have anything to look forward to every Wednesday and Thursday nights. I don't want this drama to end. ? I'm really glad there is Season 2. I hope they keep the same pace of this story being light and warm.

All episodes are interesting and fun to watch. Side stories have lessons and very inspiring.

The Script is brilliant!

The animations, the editing, cinematography, and everything are all praise worthy.

The Casts? They're amazing. All great actors! Really fit their roles! ?

Atty. Woo is such a cutie. I love her character. I feel like I want to protect her from everything. I'm happy when she's happy. Plus I love her more when she's working and when she's with Joon Ho.

Lee Joon Ho is just so perfect. Where to find a guy like him? For me, he surpassed every KDrama men so far. I love how he loves Young Woo.

Atty. Jung is funny and kind. I like that he was hesitant to accept Young Woo at first but changes after he saw how credible Young Woo is.

Choi Soo Yeon is a perfect girl. I love how she's always on Young Woo's side. She's really a spring sunshine. Bestest girl ever!!!

Atty. Kwon - I hated him. No other words. His character development near the end is kinda off for me. Doesn't make the drama bad though.

Young Woo's Dad - Love him. I love how he is supportive of Young Woo. I love how he takes care of her and how patient he is about her and her condition. All Dad's should be like him.

Geurami and Hairy - they're so funny! I love that they're YW's friends.

Tae Soo Mi- I just thought she's nice and I thought she's gonna be a great Mom but she disappointed me so much.

I just love everything about the show. Looking forward to Season 2. I love the love story of Young Woo and Joon Ho! ?

Above all, I love how Kang Tae Oh smiles the most! ?

Extraordinary Attorney Woo (2022) - I like this one as I was waiting for it every week. The drama is also engaging that the main lead is projected as a really nice ‘perfect’ kind of guy. The story development is good for me, and as it nears the end of every one or two episodes there are lessons that the drama wants to impart to me as a viewer. I love that the drama doesn’t really have a “villain” (*except with Attorney Jang – whom I’m just really pissed off). I love the ending as to what I was expecting and it’s nice that it’s not stressful because usually if there is a second season there is to be something “to look forward to” ending. Still the drama has more to show which I think has not been seen yet, revelations and all and there are also deleted scenes which they may incorporate in the next season. Looking forward to season 2.

It may not start good, but this isn't what i expected. I undersand the flow it was when this was airing, but it's not exactly for my liking. This serial it's good if you wanna be a lawyer and if you are korean, cuz it has a lot of korean law in it. I liked the love story between her and junho, but i honestly wanted to see more, and especially in the final scene. Overall it was a good serie, but just not for you.Tho, i love the acting and the story. And it honestly hurts to know that are people who are in the same or similar circumstances. i reccomand this, go watch it, but as i told you, not for me.

Best K-Drama Ever

This drams is a gem!!! Every kdrama lover should watch this and I really recommend this to you. I haven't seen anyone saying anything bad about this drama. So glad the actress won a daesang for her role. I like the fact the male lead is so supportive of her and take her as a person very seriously. And I like that actress portrayed an autistic character so well. ? It is really superb and I can not find any flaws in it. She is beautiful and he is extremely gorgeous ? and I am really speechless how good this was.

Although it loses vitality rapidly towards the end, the relationship between the characters surrounding the main character in the early part and the development of the story on an episode-by-episode basis are attractive. The main character's autism also loses specificity and feels selective at times compared to the beginning, but there is no doubt that this drama is much better made than other dramas, and the voice that wants to speak is clear. I was captivated by this drama from the moment the whale props appeared in Part 1, and Woo Young-woo, she is really lovely.

A wholesome masterpiece!

An ordinary story of an extraordinary Woo Young woo. New cases, new challenges, new people- everything is new for Young woo. And our main lead is no loser! She builds her way in this world that seems difficult for someone like her; earning everyone’s respect and praise.
The series has a bang on start with various characters you’ll come to love along the way:
Her father, her teammates, her one and only love- Lee Jun ho.
With every case, we learn something new: a new aspect of law, a part of society unseen, a part of life unexplored, or something we forget when we watch any drama: Our protagonists can fail. And it is beautiful.
Park Eun bin as Woo young woo has nailed the character, proving that no one else is a better option. Her portrayal of the character will show you all the sides of Young woo- Her curiosity, her nonchalance, her smartness, her maturity, her hesitance and her humanity. And Lee Jun ho, he is an Amazon green forest. I have never seen such an amazing personality, so good, mature, pure and yes, maybe imperfect. Because when even we will get prejudiced towards Young woo, he will not. He truly loves her, just like any other person. He will make you as well Young woo forget- "Ah, she has autism". You really need to be Jun ho to be this amazing.
Not to forget the emotionally rich and highly mature kiss scene. It is the most innocent, pure scene I have seen.
I have just rewatched the series, and I must say, I kind of found new perspectives I didn't find in the series earlier.

It is a drama that deserves at least one watch, because it gives much more everytime you watch it.

Few dialogues that I love:

"Even autistic people should have the freedom to like bad guys"
This sentence shook me, because though the situation makes us believe otherwise, this statement makes things equitable- for us and autistic people.

"We all want to love and be loved. It's the same for people with intellectual disabilities, too. Rather, the desire is even greater. Because in most cases, it's harder for them to get the attention or affection they want from other."

Must Watch Show

I loved every all of the reoccurring characters on this show. It is important to me that the main and side characters are like able or really good actors. And this show had it all. I really enjoyed the format of the episodes, since it was like a pseudo crime drama, that was a fun element. And I loved the main female lead. She is a great actress, and I love the respect you can feel she had for her character. Also her chemistry with all of her cast mates was so good. Chemistry is chemistry in, you know. So good, I highly recommend!!
