Our movie selection of the week is an utterly charming, lovable, and entertaining 2022 TV series from South Korea about a young autistic attorney, Woo Young-woo, who begins working at a law firm in Seoul. Being autistic and awkward, yet highly intelligent and equipped with some unique savant gifts such as a photographic memory, Attorney Woo learns and excels quickly and completely changes the team’s workflow.
The titular role acting by Korean actress Park Eun-bin is nothing short of remarkable and provides for some refreshing and feel-good entertainment.
To the disappointment of many fans the series has ended after 16 episodes.
All episodes of Season One can be viewed on Netflix.

Thank you for suggesting this we so enjoyed Attorney Kayak Deed.
I really enjoyed this series. Was disappointed to see it is not being continued. Wanted to see what happened between the two sr. attorneys. I did wonder how close to reality some of her behaviors are compared to someone who really has autism.
Gee it looks like there will be a season 2 to be released in 2024.
Great news! Thanks.
Woo perhaps the best series in years. Watch and smile !
So glad you liked it! Me too.
