5 Unexplained Things From Extraordinary Attorney Woo 

Woo Young Woo fixates on whales early on because whales don't abandon their young. She says it in an episode. Woo Young Woo's mother abandoned her, thus she loves whales because they dont do what her mother did to her. Whales are much more noble than her mother.

I just want to see more siblings moments from Young Woo and Sang Hyeon. 🤧🤧

I really like the actress Jin Kyung who plays Tae Sumi, she also played a villain in a drama called melancholia and she was so damn good! Extremely expressive, determined and skilled.

I always find the ability of translators to make wordplay in one language work in another to be impressive. “The needle sewed/sued the thread” is not a wordplay in Korean as the words for sewed and sued are not similar. In Korean, the joke is “Kimbap and sesame oil were fighting. Kimbap ended up getting caught by the police. Do you know why? Because sesame oil sued it / is savory.” and the wordplay is on sue / savory. Doing a good job translating a show is not about just a straight translation, it’s about keeping humor, metaphor or idiom in place even when they don’t translate well.

I love this show. Everything about it is amazing. Your heart breaks for Woo Young Woo and then it soars. Park Eun-bin’s performance is inspiring and transformative. Everyone who watches this show will carry it with them. Each episode is a gift. Woo Young Woo is the perfect ambassador to bring awareness and understanding to Autism Spectrum Disorder worldwide. Kudos to all the creative minds involved. I hope you win every award!

Han Seon-yeong (the Hanbada CEO) also has a history with Young-woo's dad when they were in law school. So presumably all three knew each other at that time.

This Korean Drama is so well written and intelligent done that I look forward to Season 2. I believe that it will win the comparison to the Emmy for the drama and special acting by Park Eu Bin and others. I am disappointed there weren't more than 16 Episodes because I was totally invested in this series compared to others. Thank you for putting so much energy and not compromising the value of the Autism Spectrum for viewers to understand not be totally overwhelmed by this illness. However, I enjoyed this show more than The King's Affection which was one of my favorites. The actress that plays "Attorney Young Woo's mother Atty Taes I could see the grin of a mother being proud of her daughter who had a love interest relationship. It made her seem human and proud that despite her Autism condition she can lure a man to like her so much and be in a relationship. It does happens. However, I believe the mother is especially proud that she was able to up one up "twice" in one of the episodes where she was in charge of the defense. It was great to see the two mother and daughter arguing over the law and seeing the daughter genius top the mother twice. So that was to me exciting to watch. Also, I see the parallels between the mother and her daughter and son have similar perfectionism about keeping things in line or order. Amazing that it was thrown in so there could not be any confusion that Atty Woo was born to Atty Taes.

It was a nice touch to visualize Youngwoo's thoughts while the writer was still halfway writing the series as suggested by the director. Really made such a huge difference and a nice way to understand Youngwoo's thought process.

Don’t place too much hope on 2nd season. I saw one youtube channel claiming that Eun Bin is unsure since she is afraid of not meeting audiences’ expectation.

all these reminders that its really over 😭. this was my weekly serotonin booster

Eonnie Jin Kyung acting is too amazing!!! She brings complications to the role Tae Soomi. Round of applause to Jin Kyung and hoping season 2 will really really happen with all the original cast on board!

"I am 60 years old" Extraordinary Attorney Woo, is the best picture I've ever seen in my life!!! Attorney woo should win every award ever offered!!!

I prefer this to be the only season, and for the characters to live “fulfilling” lives in my hopes, dreams and memory.

It’s incorrect to say that Woo’s father was studying for the bar. He had promised he wouldn’t. I think he just kept the books . I kept some of my college textbooks for years after graduation.

This might be controversial but I like Tae su Mi a lot because until some point far in the series (when she talked about sending Woo Young Woo to the USA) she NEVER mentionned woo’s autism… she was just speechless concerning her abilities. I liked that a lot. And even when she mentionned woo’s autism ONLY to send jer to the USA, it was to trick woo’s father making him think he didn’t do enough for her. She had no interest in her autism whatsoever. I found it beautiful.

At 1.03 you mentioned that WYW's father was currently reviewing for the Bar exam. Not sure if that's true cos there was one episode (I think it's when WYW was in hospital) where he explained to his daughter that after graduating with the Law degree he never took the Bar because he did not want to bump into Tae Sumi and did everything unrelated to law. Then he said he regretted that decision cos when nobody wanted to employ WYW, he wished he had opened up his own law firm and handed it down to her.

A perfectly crafted k drama for uncommon topics in today's society unless you are delved in those subjects - whales, dolpins, asd, and law. Had holistic approach on how a sensible drama series can be delivered. Same feels when CLOY tackling NoKor way of life, another sensitive topic.

I find that all the Kdramas I have seen, this is what draws me to continue to watch them. Highly interesting how little tidbits you hear, see, and how the directors bring it together. I thoroughly enjoy Korean dramas for that fact. Ofcourse their choice of choosing perfect actors to perform the character is quite "extraordinaire. "

all these, and whales are so sentient and intelligent and mysterious and alive - such big scale aliveness and subtlety, their songs too, ad breaking the surface from the depths - as woo young woo's comprehension is and does

IF EVER THEY MAKE SEASON 2.... PLEASE MAKE A SIBLING MOMENT FOR ATTY WOO AND SANG HYEON

Why did I wait so long to watch this? I was scared to watch as an aunt of a child with autism and mother of a child with a leaning disability that this was going to make me cry but I don't care wat comes in a later epesoide after watching the 1st, I'm hooked. Awesome drama!

This won’t be the same program if they can’t bring the program’s main character actor back.

I think Tae Su Mi was also dealing with some underlying guilt issues. Both Young Woo and Sang Hyeon are on the spectrum, and Tae Su Mi has signs also. Remember her compulsively straightening and organizing items?

Whales are her big "Ah-ha!" Moments and Dolphins are the little "Ah-ha!" Moments

I wondered if the two female CEOs maybe went to school together, too. Interesting to find out about the stealing of the client and the boyfriend! It explains a lot about their animosity towards each other. Like a high-stakes catfight! Rowrrr...I don't understand how that backstory didn't air. Where did this channel find that information?

I love the performance of all the actors/actresses. They are indeed extraordinary. I can’t wait to watch the next season. ❤

it would be better if we find out about the two women's past in season 2, and maybe more to it than just one taking her BF. woos dad is friends with the CEO too so there can he more with that too

First time I saw Woo Young Woo's whale "Aha" moment, I was immediately reminded of Jimmy Neutron's "Brain Blast" 😂

The fact that my birthday is November 17

So love the Series, looking forward for a Season 2. love love Park eun bin and Jin kyung!

We are looking for season 2,hope it will release soon.A lot of questions to be answered,and also what will happen to the love story of attorney woo.

Even though ppl are thinking about Season 2, the actors know NOTHING about it. If you read about Park Eun-bin (Woo Young- woo) does not think she will do it... FYI: they said it took 5 months just to do Episode 7 and 8...That is how much preparation they did, I doubt that they would be able to slap some episodes together in order to make a season 2 quickly.

It’s beautiful as it is no need for season 2. And they never explain why her mother and the ceo hate each other

We need a Season 2!!

Hollywood should learn from Korea on how to make great human interest shows, and with no sex.

I mean it’s not as though Tae Su Mi outright says she doesn’t want Young Woo. I think rather it’s something extremely difficult for her and in the end we should consider that she did indeed give birth to Young Woo. She doesn’t necessarily show animosity towards Young Woo and lets her other kid come clean about his hacking. She was almost completely safe with the secret but decided to be a “good” mom. You can tell she raised her second son well based on the fact he was wracked with guilt over what happened. Tae Su Mi isn’t a bad character in my book.

begging for a second season

I like how unpredictable the roles of these CEO women.

I always thought the whales represented God as a big, happy figure on the background. Providing the miracle impulses for Woo young Woo when needed, and as a loving Father watching his lost children struggle to live in according with His loving laws. He leaves them totally free, and when they finally do get it right, or something beautiful happens, He appears with a big smile as if saying: And He saw it was good… The fact that Woo Young Woo only sees the whales is to me an indication that due to her purity, her innocence, she can see ‘beyond this world’. Wow, what an exceptional production!

The teasing they didn’t like each other probably is because they are competitors both big law firms

Why they hate each other? My theory is that Hanbada ceo (Han Seon-young) resents Tae Soo-mi because she saw the potential in her sunbae for being really good at law work. But Tae soo-mi took her sunbae away from law. Due to (possible) family pressure (parents mainly) to marry a chaebol instead. But that is my guess. Something for a season 2 to answer.

I love the show . . . glad to hear we can look forward to Season 2.

Best show ever! Loved everything about it ❤

There's a lot more to explain with this series. Hoping for another season of wonderful series😁

If this serie doesn't get an Emmy award then their is a corruption going on.

I love the drama.

A few thoughts: I think you are incorrect in saying Woo Young Woo's father was studying for the bar. it was later revealed that he purposely stayed away from the law profession as part of his promise to Tae Su-Mi. It's not even clear he finished law school. He might have kept the books around, not really knowing what to do with them. Regarding the feud between Tai and Han, that excerpt explains it, but I wonder why it was not included in the original series. It's a relatively short scene. Could it be that by that time there were already rumblings about a second season? In which case that would give the creators the chance to come up with a much more convoluted story for their rivalry, which will be played out in the next season. Stealing each others' clients happens quite frequently in the law business. No use getting so mad over it. And regarding the possibilty of an old love triangle, well, by the time this story takes place, Han is obviously very successful. Seems doubtful she would be carrying a 20-plus years long grudge over over Tae stealing her law school boyfriend, whom we haven't even seen yet. And besides, Han is kind of hot. If she wanted to, I'm sure she would have had her opportunities with other men by now. So I think the creators are working to develop a much more devious plot to explain their rivalry. At least I hope so. Anyway, I love this show. All these little details don't matter when you watch Park Eunbin, who is simply amazing in this role -- charming, vulnerable, interesting, lovely and compelling all at the same time.

5:54 한 or Han actually refers to number one. Hence Han is a shorter version of 하나 (hana) and it basically is means the number one

I have search everywhere and can not find anywhere about season 2, not even in Wikipedia. How come you think there gonna be another season of this serie?

Nice recap as usual

I am happy that Season 1 was "fulfilling" enough to serve as a series end because with the male lead having to do his compulsory military service and Park Eun Bin saying the roll is difficult, we may not see a season 2. Park Eun Bin is on the world stage now, and it is likely that bigger roles will come her way. For those looking for something similar, I recommend Astrid et Raphelle, a French TV Series that I think may have served as the inspiration for Extraordinary Attorney Woo. Sarah Mortenson is equally compelling as Astrid and I would venture to bet that her performance influenced the way Woo behaves. Both are excellent. Astrid is a bit more serious but easy to get hooked into. Astrid is on Amazon Prime. Both Astrid and Woo are exceptionally good shows though.

Muy buena artista, de Peru 🇵🇪

..the director and the writer are geniuses as well...

Guys I don't remember the scene from 2:40 😭 in which episode it was

Started watching theses k-dramas for some reason about 4-5 months ago. And some Chinese ones as well. Some were so dumb I stopped watching and some so good I couldn't get enough. But this one, to me, topped all of them. SO WELL DONE AND ACTED!!! I don't even want to put it in the same category as a "K-Drama". Just an excellent TV show that happens to come from Korea. I've heard of the US wanting to make an American version. Stupid dumb move. A money grab that will compare. Besides, they did do an excellent one (Temple Grandin) starring Claire Danes which I seen in another video Woo Young Woo's character is loosely based on. Hollywood no longer has it's own ideas. I hope there is a season 2 for sure and my wish is Woo Young-Woo and Jun-Ho further their relationship (no more break ups), more good courtroom dramas and a get down to the nitty gritty with the two CEO's.

👆👆👆👆👆👆👆👆👆👆👆👆👆👆👆👆👆👆👆👆👆👆👆👆👆👆👆👆 In Namyangju, there are numerous dog farms, slaughterhouses, markets, and restaurants where the dogs, who have been tortured their entire lives, end up being slaughtered in the most inhumane ways, such as by electrocution, hanging, or beating; and then thrown into boiling water - sometimes while they are still alive. In many places, dogs are being killed in full view of other terrified, caged dogs; and this takes place in broad daylight. In addition, many abandoned and stolen former pets end up in this industry and are subject to the same cruelty. Come on stars move and help.

i cant believe season 2 will come out in 2024----

I want a second season, whether young woo is in it or not, there are too many threads left open. Young woo can be in the first episode or two, then leave the rest to other cast members.

where can I watch that unaired episode ? LInk please ?

I love this series, however the way they portray successful women hits a bit wrong for me, I wish Season 2 would add more nuance to that.

I really enjoyed Extraordinary Attorney Woo. Something that annoys me is the voice over on the video continually calls her Attorney Ew. It's Attorney Woo. Not Ew.

season 2 ? ?

anyone know the name of the song when she rides the train in ep1 and the last ep16? its not on the OST! thx!

How are these not explained ? They were literally explained in the show

Maybe of rivalry

TO BE HONEST I WONT ASK FOR A SEASON 2 ... IF THEY WONT ITS OKAY IF THEY WILL ITS MUCH BETTER I GUESS.... BUT THE MOMENT ATTY KWON SAID TO ATTY JUNG THAT HES INDEED BEAUTIFULL I WANTED AN ANSWER HAHAHAHA ITS REALLY CONFUSINGGGGGG WHYYY DID HE SAY THATTTTT

Guess the second season would have to handle her bf being another actor because this actor has to do 2 yrs military service. Or maybe they will prerecord his limited role ahead of time. Or maybe a new bf. Who knows.

우영우

Many Korean dramas leave many things unexplained. Some characters are introduced with no background story whatsoever leaving us asking in the end why. That's an absolute nono in creative writing.

Ewan ko ba,,basta yang isa laging nag aabandona ng anak yn😂

Many people think what Tae Su Mi propose to send Young Woo to the States is selfish. I think the opposite.

Great Movie! Please watch it and learn from it. Thank you for the sharing it on Netflix.

The screenwriter is a woman, not a man. I don’t know why this video repeatedly refers to the screenwriter as male.

Why do you not pronounce the “W” in “Woo” or the “L” in “Lee”?

I think the Hanbada CEO loved Young Woo’s father bit the father loved Taesan’s Ceo😊

They hate each other because of one man. The father of woo young woo. The hanbada ceo likes young woo's father and the taesan's ceo likes him too. That's the reason

These unexplained scenes can be clarified i season 2. Please let it happen!!

She stole her boyfriend got pregnant on purpose and abandoned them

There will be no season 2. But, hey, you keep pretending there will be.
