♥️??
This was a fun, cute, and lovely show. I loved attorney Woo so much. I think the acting on the actress' part was superb. I liked how everyone slowly starts liking her and understanding her. The romance was so cute, too. I really liked seeing her in court showing her awesome skills. She truly is an amazing lawyer. I loved how her dad prepared her gimbap every day and how patient he is with her. I also loved the romance between the second couple and was so sad when I found out that their boss was dying. Definitely a must watch!!!Was this review helpful to you?
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! 🥰

The Softest Kind of Strength
This one didn’t just move me. It reached into something quiet I hadn’t realized I’d muted — a part of me that still wonders what it means to belong when everything about you feels out of step with the world around you.Extraordinary Attorney Woo isn’t loud. It doesn’t try to impress. It simply offers itself, gently, and waits for you to feel it. And I did. Over and over again.
Watching Woo Young-woo navigate a world built for sameness, armed with logic, wonder, honesty, and an absolutely unwavering sense of right and wrong — it was beautiful in a way that didn’t need to be dramatic. Park Eun-bin didn’t just play her, she embodied her, not as a checklist of behaviors, but as a full, feeling person. It never felt like a performance. It felt like a conversation. And I listened to every word of it.
Each case the show presented had its own rhythm — some quirky, some painful, all of them layered with moral questions that never felt heavy-handed. What made them work wasn’t the verdicts. It was how they reflected back something bigger: how people see each other. How judgment is passed — in courtrooms, in offices, in families — long before a gavel falls.
And then there were the relationships. Her father, carrying guilt and pride in equal measure. Her best friend, loud and loyal and unafraid to tell the truth. Her co-workers, slowly shifting from curiosity to respect. And Jun-ho — kind, patient Jun-ho — who didn’t try to fix or explain her, just walked beside her. Their romance didn’t burn fast. It unfolded. Carefully. With pauses that felt as important as the words.
The tone wobbled at times. Moments of whimsy gave way to sudden weight, and not every subplot landed clean. But even then, the show never lost its center. It knew what story it was telling. And more than that, it knew how it wanted to tell it — with compassion, with clarity, and with the quiet conviction that difference isn’t something to overcome, but to honor.
I didn’t expect to cry as much as I did. Or to laugh, softly, at the little ways the show tucked in joy. But it all landed. Not with force, but with that rare kind of grace that doesn’t ask for attention — just trust.
Extraordinary Attorney Woo wasn’t just moving. It was affirming. And in its softest moments, it reminded me that being different is not a flaw. It’s a language. And sometimes, someone speaks it back.

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. Was this review helpful to you?

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.Was this review helpful to you?

a drama that makes me want to be autistic ?
I really liked this drama that dealt with legal issues but also Asperger's syndrome. Actress Park Eun-bin played her role so well that it made her endearing in every way. At one point, I even thought she was autistic, she played this role so well. What struck me the most is that this drama talks about the truth of how people treat autistic people but the drama shows from the beginning that even if a person is autistic, they are capable of being competent. Anyway, it was a really good drama and I had a great time watching it.Was this review helpful to you?

Definitely recommend!
This series was so refreshing. You can tell the portrayal of an autistic person was done thoughtfully and respectfully. I think Park Eun-bin seriously did a fantastic job and was the perfect casting for Woo Young Woo! As for Junho, I've seen a lot of people call his character boring but I don't think a male lead character has to be like foolishly in love and over the top like most dramas in order to be a good ML! Sometimes, all you have to be is kind, caring, understanding, and loving. I like how the writers didn't make their relationship the biggest plot of the show so that it doesn't overshadow Young Woo's journey of becoming an attourney.Was this review helpful to you?
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."

Excellent
I really liked all of the characters. The writing was excellent and you could clearly tell a lot of thought went into it. The romance was also very sweet and didn't feel rushed. The MC is smart and cute and the ML is kind and cool. The autistic representation was also well researched and good. I liked this show a lot.Was this review helpful to you?
