About an autistic 27 year old lawyer. Due to her high IQ of 164, impressive memory, and creative thought process, the brilliant Woo Young Woo graduated at the top of her class from a prestigious law school.
Watchseries; 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.

Extraordinary Attorney Woo watchseries. Korean dramas know how to assemble great actors for the wonderful entertainment. This 'Extraordinary Attorney Woö' on NetFlix is right up there with other 10 rating shows from KDRAMA. (Crash Landing on You, Our Blues, Hometown Cha Cha Cha, Vincenzo, Squid Game, Start-Up, King Dom, Hi Bye Mama!, Mad for Each Other, Mr. Sunshine, My Sassy Girl and many other KDRAMAS and KMOVIES). I hope episode 5 thru 16 will be as good as first four episodes.
So far each episode represented different cases for attorney Woö to solve them. If you like comedy, heart warming, romance and mild violence. If this show does great thru all episodes, hopefully there be Season 2. This show is a must for you! Don't pay no mind to one user rated a 1. Enjoy it!

Totally captivated by this wonderful show! The lead, Park Eun-bin, is pitch-perfect. You will fall in love with the entire cast as every single actor is worthy of their own stories. I've never had the opportunity to visit South Korea, although I did live in Okinawa for several years. I am enjoying this look into South Korean life with it's marvelous scenery. I'm hoping whoever is responsible for this show is writing more episodes right now!!!

This storyline needs to be shown more often so people realize that autism does not keep you from having an occupation or a good life
This actress should receive the highest award she can get, she is absolutely perfect in this role enjoying all the other actors as well the storyline and the whales :-). If you haven't watched it you need to.

I rate a lot of shows but I can't be bothered writing a review. So it airs twice a week . I just finished episode 8. I love it so much that I'm sad every time an episode ends. It's really this good. Thus I'm compelled to write a review . I love K Dramas nowadays and South Korea has been killing it with wonderful shows. This is again a unique show , story's main character is focused around brilliant Autistic young rookie lawyer . I'm know expert with Autism in general but I'm sold on the character . She's adorable to watch. The cases thus far are entertaining and It's pure joy to watch . So I'll resume episode 9 and 10 next week and sit back and enjoy. A 10 rating might be a bit high, but Its just fantastic all around. So for me , it would be remiss to give it a lesser rating. Highly recommend for everyone!
