Media representation of people with Autism spectrum disorder is difficult . The spectrum is so broad, it’s impossible to fit every trait into a single character. Media often ends up simplifying characters as complete mental deficients or as super-human. The writers and Park have imbued Young Woo with a great mix of traits that create and original,interesting, and authentic feeling character. I especially appreciate the way Young Wu forms strong bonds with those around her without expressing the bond verbally. Watching Young Wu’s father as myself, a father of children on the spectrum, I feel especially seen.
I worked in an elementary school library and worked with many kids on the spectrum. Having worked with these children makes me see how deeply the actress cared about her role and strived to portray her character in as realistic a fashion that she could. She is phenomenal.
As a person who works with autistic people, I feel very happy with this drama because it has shown with delicacy and respect what it is like to live with autism. In particular I am incredibly impressed with Park Eun Bin as she has been careful with a lot of details, even in the smallest, she is admirable. Park Eun Bin is a Psychologist in real life and that explains why she has so much knowledge and respect for the autism spectrum. She said that she wanted to be the first to understand and respect Woo Young Woo. In addition, she is a virtuous and prodigious actress, that is why this series has conquered hearts all over the world and is showing the authentic beauty and characteristics of these people, taking us through a delicate journey to a better understanding.
😀The sea ==> the sea where whales live. The sea is a world we don't know. The sea is a world where we look at it with prejudice. Mountain ==> It's a huge wall for us. The whale's mother who left for the mountain will return to the sea. I am Korean, and I explained the reason why a Korean writer named the law firm mountains(태산) and seas(한 바다). We have to listen to the sad story of the whale and empathize The Korean word " DONG GEU RAMI(동그라미) " means circle(OOOOOOOOO). Autistic people like circles, the medical doctor said. Woo Young-woo is written as "우영우" in Korean. "우영우" has several circles. " DONG GEU RAMI(동그라미) " 그라미(GEU RAMI)=FISRT NAME 동(DONG) =LAST NAME In Korean Language, "영 Young" means smart "우 Woo" means not being smart.
This is such a great drama. My son is on the autism spectrum Asperger’s syndrome & anxiety. Like Attorney Woo my son wear headphones everywhere bc he is very sensitive to noise. The hand movements are spot on too. I love how adorable & cute Attorney Woo is. So far it’s been a very touching drama.

Park Eunbin is doing a superb job playing a character who is on the spectrum. I loved her in the King's Affection and this drama shows how great her acting range is!
I have watched a LOT of Korean dramas over the past 3 years and frankly I think this is consistently the most involving as Park Eunbin, the whole cast and the writing team tackle such a sensitive area so very, very well. A great ensemble effort that I hope wins a ton of awards for its originality and as she says to Ha Yoon-kyeong for all its Spring Sunshine - a really special drama.

Since Corona I watched some k-dramas... And every time I'm surprised how easily korean actors look totally different 😳🤩 Park Eun-bin is the crown prince from king's affection 😳😳💕
You know you are an amazing actress when you have such amazing chemistry on screen that people think you’re dating all your co stars 🥺 and also when producers literally wait for you to finish a different drama to start filming ❤ She’s so hardworking and talented
Eunbin trying to put herself into another level tier in acting....she can change voice without being awkward, do totally different roles, above all great facial expression and eye expression. this what makes her totally different from other kdrama actresses.....i do think park eun bin can also nail a role of good villain actress too....i am already watching kdrama for 20 years....i rarely seen a great actress doing different roles and really being good at it. i think it's true that if other actress portray this role woo young woo it may really look awkward...she manage to make a great impression of a person with autism and totally turn the people's view to treat people like them with compassion , care and to be more understanding towards them.
My favorite drama right now! It is so refreshing, heartwarming and Park Eunbin's acting is exceptional! Highly recommend this drama and thank you for sharing a little of the cast.
Wow, this show is truly a gem.. pure excellence from casting, to producing, plot, romance, acting & interpretation of characters, the cases brought to court.. you name it.. thank you Netflix for bringing this show to us... can't wait for more episodes..
true, everything in this kdrama is superb- the casting, the storyline, the script... the directors and the scriptwriters, very well researched, well executed scenes....it is 10stars, and outstanding. please there shd be a season 2🤗👏👏👏
To date, this could be the best of all kdramas to that have hit the screen so far. It has all the ingredients needed to capture the audience from the very beginning. Hats up to all the talented actors and their hard work in portraying their characters in a believable, heartwarming and satisfying way, so much so, that one cannot have enough of each episode.The scriptwriters have done an excellent job keeping each episode as exciting and worthy of watching as the previous ones. All in all, the cast and crew and everyone involved in the making of this drama, thank you all so very much. May God bless you in your future endeavors. Hullo from Geraldton West Australia.
I'd say it's the best drama ever. I don't watch much TV, but I found this series, funny, endearing and thought provoking. As far as I am concerned Park Eunbin must be considered one of the best actresses of all time, it was a very difficult role, and she performed brilliantly.
This should not be mentioned as just a k drama. It is a superb piece of acting. Eun bin is one of Koreas best actors. An award is surly hers.I want so much to binge watch ,but have to patiently wait for each episode. What a star.

Kang is a grounded person. He shall remain in our hearts even he comes back after years. With natural good looks and smile he is better than the too hyped ones who without their makeup are not attractive actually. All the best Kang. I follow you.
Omg she is really naturally pretty PEB Im glad she didnt turn down this time and the director trust her with the character and she never failed them...
Kang Tae Oh is such a great actor, he plays his roles well. I would love to meet him one day. Park Eun bin is also a really good actor and her versatility is extraordinary
Oh my gosh--this little lady is phenomenal! Park Eunbin in 'The King's Affection!--Priceless and now 'Extraordinary Attorney Woo'--Your representation of this character is 'over the top'! You are one talented lady!! Love this!!🥰💕💖❤
Wow!! So she was the leading lady in The Kings Affection? I'd been looking who that beautiful actress was. Finally , she is attorney Woo in my favorite Extra Ordinary Attorney Woo. She deserves an award for her extraordinary acting. Same as her leading man , handsome, good acting and pure love for her. Thanks to this beautiful story.
I taught psychiatric concepts in nursing and I am just so amazed how this show captures the world of a person with autism. The awesome nurturing of the father preparing atty woo for the future is so believable that I have not seen much of the tantrums in her. Great acting not only of Atty Woo but all the cast! Kudos!
Kang Kiyoung is just EXCELLENT in "Extraordinary Attorney Woo". Yes, this is my first and only time seeing the actor, but the way he is a constant rock of respectability ALL the show, including being recognized by all the other characters - that's just inspiring stuff. In your life, you want to have a senior that is this good but also fair and understanding. His energy is inspiring.
For Kang tae oh, I think they forgot to add his prince villain role in Tale of Nokdu. He was so deliciously evil there, and I think he got awards in it
Next to What's Wrong with Secretary Kim? and Goblin...this new legal-drama series-Extraordinary Attorney Woo, makes my heart flutters so much. I really love the tandem of angelic and innocent look of Park Eun Bin and the sweet and handsome face of Kang Tae-Oh. The unique way of solving the different story cases by Atty. Woo Young-Woo catches my attention also. I'm so excited to the love story of Young-Woo and Jun-ho.
This series is such a class act that it demands watching. Films like Rudy portray disabled people as requiring support to manage their lives. I would think many in the autistic community would want to scream about this portrayal. All the actors watch Miss Woo’s progress with attention and encouragement except for her in-company nemesis but he is being cancelled by her school friend / attorney coworker. It’s a shame we don’t have the whole first season yet. I’ve really enjoyed what we have so far and the relationships have so much growing to do.
A great drama portraying the levels of discrimination and stigma from individuals perception attached to others being "different", to me they are special individuals I can learn from 💖
I started watching this k-drama over the weekend and I must say that I absolutely love it! Park Eun Bin is outstanding as usual! She had me laughing hysterically throughout the series. She has such a awesome presence that captivates you! She is hands down my favorite South Korean female actress thus far.
Early on, the scene where she first encounters the revolving door was just precious. She finally manages it only to be confronted again going home. Then help arrives and her courage in accepting help is killer.
Watched ep1_4 twice already...and still enjoying it...all my stress gone by lol...PEB such a daebak!!! actress🥰...and the ever handsome KTO 😍 ...and ooh the multi character (bad, funny, girly and simple guy) KKY🤩 He is just so adorable 🤩
And To add, along with my previous comment, I love the storyline also. It touches on autism, which sheds light on how amazing individuals with autism truly are. So phenomenal! I can't wait until this weekend to watch the new episodes that come on Netflix. yay!!!!
This is one of the Best Drama I Iver watched in KDRAMA it tackled a different issues in life which we all can relate .. I love it that their is not much of a drinking session.. all the time in every KDRAMA their is always drinking .. it's like you are promoting alcoholic.
It’s amazing great a masterpiece and normally I wait till I start with a drama till the last episode is out … but this drama I only can see 2 episodes every week and it’s a must see ❤
Admiro a kang tae oh desde mí primer amor de verdad dóne lo descubrí, y luego en run on ,es muy buen actor, empecé a ver , WOO, x q lo v i en un avance de la serie 👏👏🤩🤩
My introduction to Kdrama was made during the pandemic quarantine. I immediately became a loyal fan. In two years I have enjoyed many heart warming dramas and thoroughly impressed by the storytelling and production quality of Korean dramas. Unequivocally, this drama is the best. I anticipate this drama will receive many accolades and awards. Extraordinary Attorney Woo provides immeasurable goodwill and joy for the world. 제 삶을 풍요롭게 해주셔서 대단히 감사합니다. 잘 했어.
They’re all great and very talented especially atty Woo.. Lee Junho is very kind and handsome. I was intrigued upon seeing him and thought “oh who is this another handsome Korean actor?” I enjoyed this series. I enjoyed every scene. The difference of this series compared to others is every episode is different.. it’s so Interesting to see different trials and the love story in it makes it even more captivating.❤
I'm really enjoying this show. I was a little worried at first about how Woo's character would be portrayed but I think they're doing an amazing job. Only, in the first show - the buttons. Enjoyed this video too, it was very respectful ! Thank you
OMG! THE KDRAMAS THEY ARE MENTIONING I FIND AMAZING BECAUSE I'VE SEEN A LARGE PORTION OF THEM. THEY ACTORS WERE ALL GREAT! WHEN I THINK "OMG! THAT WAS SO GOOD! THEN THEY MENTION ANOTHER AND I REPEAT MY SELF. IF YOU HAVE THE CHANCE MAKE A LIST OF THEM, THEN WATCH THEM ONE BY ONE. I PROMISE YOU WON'T BE DISAPPOINTED! LOVE THEM ALL!
I love the drama series...wait for it every week....I loved The King's Affection too which was one of the first few K dramas for me...am 65yo Australian! I didn't realise it was the same female lead as Woo....fantastic....I only watch k dramas....so hooked...thank u.💚💚
I really love this drama the creators of this drama show the positive and negative side of people in this drama. Very good stories of what does happen to people who are not given a chance in life. Very good well worth watching love the actors and there personalities❤
I have been into kang tae oh ever sinds the drama my fiest first love Back in 2019 I love this human he is amazing And not to forget he has the most amazing beautiful stunning smile I have ever seen ❤
Love this drama,this actress is so talented and I love how her character loves whales! Definitely not the typical k drama. It’s a beautiful story and sheds light on autism
Amazing drama..the best..congrats 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻.. the story writer showed (from personal to professional )how people with autism can be assets ..relationships nurtured like Atty Woo's father and Junho's too Atty Woo despite the odds..This drama piece ,scriptwriter, producer and all those worthy of it deserve awards ❤🇵🇭
I personally i like 👍🏼 this drama, it's plain and rich in terms of real people, life and how money can really destroy people's lives and how it can also build people up, it only depends on good and bad people, greedy and generous, also equality in the society, school's and every where we're as human beings, so if only people like loving friends, daddy's exists, then, there won't be bullying at school's and discrimination, this drama gives us the real taste of life in a way that makes us feel the need to change our society to a better place for all
Esse dorama veio acalharr.Mesmo as pessoas com suas deficiências são capazes de vencer os obstáculos e realizar seus objetivos.A atriz ė brilhante nas suas apresentações.Amo demais. Sou fã.
I saw this movie at Netflix. I give this movie two thumbs up it is a very beautiful 🌹movie. It is funny 😂and it’s also sad. 😢You guys watch it to the end you’re gonna love this movie two thumbs up.👍👍
I love this drama ❤ I also love all the roles that support all the valuable messages that this drama presents. Koreas best actors are in this Kdrama, thank you for a refreshing story.❤
Eunbin saw her in the series record of youth while the others shes also great there. While Yoon-kyeong saw her in "she would never know" also a very nice series to watch.
