On Netflix: Extraordinary Attorney Woo

I can not say it enough how much I love, love, love this show.

Woo Young-Woo is a new law school graduate from SNU Law School, the premier school in South Korea. Although graduating at the top of her class and being an academic star, it took her 6 months to find a job. Her hiring by a top law firm becomes clear in episode 7.

Attorney Woo is very brilliant. She is also autistic. Her colleagues struggle to look past it as her brilliant mind always seems to save the day. She has some good friends who always have her back. And you can't help always being on her side.

This is a beautifully written series. The stories are deep and well written. The acting is superb.

The series is now up to episode 8 with a total of 16 episodes. I hope there is a series 2.

In Korean with English subtitles.

It's on Netflix and you can set the audio to English

When it shows up in it's little thumbnail, it's Korean but when you start an episode you can set your audio to English and subtitles

The actress who plays woo young woo is great
