Extraordinary Attorney Woo to return in 2024 with season 2

Extraordinary Attorney Woo is planning to come back for season two, the makers of the hit Korean drama, recently said. "Thanks to the support of many people, we will produce Season 2 of Extraordinary Attorney Woo. The goal is to air Season 2 in 2024. It is not easy to coordinate the schedules of the cast and production team, so we will have to go through a lot of discussions," Lee Sang-baek, the CEO of AStory, said in a statement.

Directed by Yoo In-shik and written by Moon Ji-won, Extraordinary Attorney Woo chronicles the story of Woo Young-woo, (played by Park Eun-bin), an autistic lawyer, working at a large law firm.

It also stars Kang Tae-oh, Kang Ki-young, Jeon Bae-soo, Baek Ji-won, Ha Yoon-kyung, Joo Jong-hyuk, Jin Kyung, Joo Hyun-young, and Im Sung-jae.

Lee Sang-baek also stated there will be no replacement of the cast, director, writer, or production team for season two. Besides AStory, KT Studio Genie and Nangman Crew are also credited as producers on the series. "As long as there are no unexpected changes, the goal is to maintain more than 90 per cent of the same members as now. For this reason, it will take a considerable amount of time to coordinate, but the plan to produce Season 2 has not changed," he added.

Extraordinary Attorney Woo, which premiered on June 29, is also available for streaming on Netflix in select regions, including India.

What's special about this, you may ask! Park Eun-portrayal Bin's of Attorney Woo is filled with sensitivity, humour, and kindness. This is the actor's career-best role, following her performance in The King's Affection, for which she received a Baeksang award nomination. She's entertaining to watch, whether she's arguing vehemently in court or speaking quietly about her autism and how people perceive her.

However, there has been some legitimate criticism that Young-Woo was not played by an actor with autism. However, the writing and the way the character was created deserve to be praised.
