Every once in a while, a surprise hit K-drama dominates Netflix's non-English rankings and becomes a must-see drama for fans; ENA's "The Extraordinary Lawyer Woo Young Woo" is the latest drama to take its place with its upbeat, heartwarming story of an autistic lawyer taking on his first full-time job It is.

Park Eun-bin plays Woo Young-woo with gentleness and heart, a genius who is Korea's first lawyer on the autism spectrum and a top student at the most prestigious law school in Korea. But when she goes out into the real world and into the courtroom, she must deal with her differences in a challenging field. Fortunately, Yonu, a kind co-worker and whale lover (yes, the fact of whales plays a big role in her thought process), wins a trial, makes new friends, and may even fall in love in the process.

For those of you who have fallen in love with this feel-good drama (and everyone else who needs to see it soon), let me introduce you to the cast of Special Attorney Woo.

Woo Young Woo (spelled the same before and after) is a new lawyer at Hantan Law Firm. She is brilliant and loves the law, but her social skills are very different from those of her colleagues. Still, she is determined to succeed at her job, even if she can't talk about whales with her colleagues.
