How Many Attorney Woo Episodes Are There?
Extraordinary Attorney Woo’s popularity can be both beneficial and damaging. On one hand, its widespread recognition increases pressure for the show to deliver content in meaningful ways; yet it does so effortlessly.

1. The first episode
Attorney Woo’s first episode introduces us to Young-woo and her struggle to adapt in a male-dominated legal system. Working at Hanbada law firm as an intern, Young-woo is thrust into her first case as she represents the wife of someone who was brutally killed by his husband’s attackers.
Young-woo successfully defends her client in court against charges of killing, and proves that his death was due to cerebral hematoma rather than murder. By saving the woman from murder charges, Young-woo is able to gain her first victory as an attorney.
Young-woo’s unique approach to her cases helps her thrive, without making her seem as though she knows everything just because of autism – something many other dramas with autistic characters have fallen prey to.
2. The second episode

Extraordinary Attorney Woo is an engaging drama that deftly balances law with romance, work and family life. Starring Park Eun-bin as Young-woo, this show shines a light on her reality without making her into an eccentric caricature; its refreshing nature provides much-needed respite in our hectic modern society and will keep viewers hooked for seasons to come. You won’t want to stop watching this hearty drama!
3. The third episode

Unfortunately, not everything is so optimistic; in episode three she must defend a client with autism who stands accused of killing his older brother.
Case proves challenging as she attempts to bridge communication gap with client while remaining sensitive to stereotyping and generalizations people with autism face outside.
Extraordinary Attorney Woo is truly outstanding when it comes to depicting disabilities realistically and challenging ableist assumptions without resorting to K-drama cliches.

She goes to her office and gets stuck in a revolving door before finally finding Jun-ho, one of her litigation team members, with whom she forms an enjoyable relationship despite briefly abandoning work due to personal reasons. After meeting him again she reveals why she left initially.
5. The fifth episode
Attorney Woo shot to prominence when it premiered, garnering incredible ratings not only nationally but globally thanks to Netflix. While more eyes watching can be good or bad depending on its impact, more eyeballs put even greater strain on any show to deliver its promise and succeed.
Thankfully, this drama does not disappoint; its focus lies in various legal cases and features an engaging subplot surrounding Young-Woo’s blossoming romance with Jun-Ho at work. Additionally, it explores issues of ableism in an indirect manner without resorting to cliched tropes of disabled geniuses who plow through professional obstacles but cannot manage personal ones; leaving viewers to decide for themselves whether this aspect should be positive or not.

Young Woo is challenged by this case as it explores an opposing village to an on-ramp being constructed through their beautiful forest. It’s the first two-parter of its kind in this series and presents numerous obstacles.
Though she is autistic, she manages to excel at her job and impress her superiors. Unfortunately, social interactions remain challenging and prejudice against those with disabilities must also be battled against.
8. The eighth episode
Young-woo tries her luck as an attorney when she accepts an older man’s claim against the hotel where his wedding went awry, showing she can represent his case effectively even though she lacks verbal skills to express herself effectively. Young-woo demonstrates this ability through this case.

9. The ninth episode
Extraordinary Attorney Woo is an engaging show, but also tackles difficult cases that make viewers uneasy. The first season, which concluded August 19, was an instantaneous success and has gained international popularity; Park Eun-bin made her character come to life without becoming an exaggerated caricature of herself.
Bang Gu-Ppong, also known as Mr Fart, uses children’s fascination with whales as bait for recruits into his cult. In episode nine of this series, there’s a case involving one such individual.
Young-woo notes that her client displays signs of autism such as echolalia; rigidity; and an interest in whales. But she doesn’t let his beliefs pass without questioning. Young-woo must learn that even experienced lawyers may make errors of judgment during her case.
10. The tenth episode
Attorney Woo is one of the rare K-dramas to depict autism without resorting to ableist stereotypes. While its protagonist, a woman with autism, may appear quirky at first, the show depicts her not as an eccentric but as an accomplished lawyer in a prestigious firm with mentors and enemies alike as well as unexplored familial secrets – not forgetting an ongoing romance thread!
Young-Woo is highlighted in this episode with one of her most impactful cases – where the mother of a mentally handicapped girl was charged with sexually abusing her daughter due to perceptions projected onto them from others. This case proves that disabled individuals are never just victims.
