Extraordinary Attorney Woo – How Many Attorney Woo Episodes Are There?
Extraordinary Attorney Woo has become one of the most beloved K-Dramas of 2022 in Korea due to its stellar acting, solid cases and charming characters – making it an instantaneous success!
This film has also generated much discussion regarding autism and discrimination; and has even been made into a musical.
1. The first episode
Extraordinary Attorney Woo is one of the summer’s most beloved K-dramas, boasting an exceptional ensemble cast and thoughtful plotline. Starring Park Eun-bin as an autism lawyer working at one of Seoul’s premier law firms, Extraordinary Attorney Woo deftly blends multiple genres and themes throughout its 16 episode run: legal drama, workplace romance and disability awareness awareness.
Like Atypical on Netflix, this show depicts autism spectrum disorders with care and accuracy. Young-Woo adores whales – evidenced by her fascination for these mammals from puzzles to her slippers – which she displays throughout the show. Furthermore, Young-Woo has an exceptional memory and creative thought process which enable her to excel in legal practices despite social challenges she encounters; this combination allows her to excel even though there may be morally ambiguous cases which test her compass at times.
2. The second episode
Extraordinary Attorney Woo has become Netflix’s highest-viewed non-English show this summer, drawing global audiences. This charming drama about an autistic lawyer has proven an immensely soothing antidote, reigniting audiences’ interest in K-dramas once more. Even BTS have joined in, posting videos featuring them doing Young-woo’s signature greeting with her best friend!
Park Eun-bin gives an outstanding performance as Woo Young-woo, an adorable young lawyer with autism spectrum disorder who embarks on cases at her firm while fighting prejudice against people with disabilities. The series pays great attention to creating side characters such as Lee Jun-ho of Hanbada and Choi Su-yeon of Choi Su-yeon’s. No wonder why it was renewed for season 2.
3. The third episode
Attorney Woo’s third episode stands out for its intricate storytelling. There is plenty going on within its pages – each subplot having its own merit.
Young-woo’s romance with earnest Hanbada lawyer Jun-ho (Kang Tae-oh) may draw audiences, but you’ll stay for her genuine supportive friendships – be it with Dong Geu-ra-mi (whose swaggy greeting became a TikTok trend) or her co-worker Choi Su-yeon who stood up against office bullies).
Netflix’s K-drama of the summer, ASTORY, has become an international success, amassing 288 million hours of viewership within 28 days. According to ASTORY CEO Scott Taylor, season two will likely return next year; an exact release date hasn’t been specified as of yet but 2024 seems plausible as an ideal scenario.
4. The fourth episode
Extraordinary Attorney Woo is an ingeniously intelligent show that sheds light on autism spectrum disorder without succumbing to K-drama stereotypes. A welcome addition among shows that explore neurological disabilities over recent years such as Netflix’s Atypical and Freeform’s It’s Okay Not Being Okay.
The show has earned high praise for its accurate depiction of autism spectrum disorder and Young-woo’s captivating charm and remarkable memory, drawing audiences into her life with ease. However, it doesn’t shy away from exploring more morally grey areas.
Therefore, this show has proven immensely popular with audiences around the globe and was even one of Netflix’s most-watched non-English series for 16 episodes – leading to serious withdrawal from fans after its conclusion and fans eagerly waiting for its second season?
5. The fifth episode
Extraordinary Attorney Woo has become one of the most beloved k-dramas to date, garnering audiences around the globe and receiving many requests for remakes on platforms such as Netflix.
Humanely portrays autistic people and subtly challenges prejudices viewers may not have been aware of. Furthermore, this film showcases a supportive friend circle with well-developed backstories for each character.
Young-woo’s obsession with whales and dolphins makes for an engaging aspect of this drama, serving as an effective means for her to solve cases and foster relationships with those around her. Additionally, her father provides tremendous love and support – from making daily gimbap meals to always being there when needed and protecting his daughter against outside influences. Furthermore, CEO of ASTORY confirmed negotiations are underway for season 2, with 90% of cast returning without unexpected changes!
6. The sixth episode
Young-woo is joined by her fellow lawyers on their mission to reunite a mother and daughter and reduce her four-year sentence. Young-woo’s unique communication, photographic memory and fascination with whales continues to impress them all.
Young-woo also shows her talents at representing those who need it, as evidenced by how she handled a case where a woman sued her husband for alimony. True to form as a lawyer, Young-woo found an analogy for this situation by drawing parallels between whales and her clients’ situation.
AStory’s huge success has earned it plenty of media coverage, which can both benefit and detract from its legal drama genre. Luckily, AStory has pledged production with its original cast and crew for Season 2. This announcement should bring much joy for fans of AStory!
7. The seventh episode
Woo Young-woo’s sharp memory serves her well when recalling details about a case, but also helps her navigate social situations and develop relationships, proving she is both capable and valuable to her firm.
As the series unfolds, she faces many difficulties at work; for example, being accused of nepotism by one of her rivals at a law firm and having to show proof of hiring due to ability rather than nepotism by her rival.
Extraordinary Attorney Woo is a joy to watch and has become Netflix’s most watched non-English show. Critics across the board have given it rave reviews; even K-pop group BTS made special mention of its popularity! Extraordinary Attorney Woo demonstrates how an inspirational story about neurodivergent characters can enthrall audiences worldwide.

This legal drama provides a refreshing change of pace within its genre. With an outstanding cast that connects seamlessly, and plenty of riveting cases to keep viewers guessing, this series won’t bore viewers over time!
Even with its contentious subject matter, this drama takes an objective approach and keeps its tone balanced. Unfortunately, people with autism have expressed some criticism as Young-woo is not an accurate depiction of an autistic individual; however, the show’s writers and producers are aware of such criticism and have made adjustments for season two.
