Park Eun Bin and Kang Tae Oh will be going through some difficult times in “Extraordinary Attorney Woo.”
The drama tells the story of Woo Young Woo (Park Eun Bin), a young lawyer with Asperger’s syndrome who joins a major law firm. Due to her high IQ of 164, impressive memory, and creative thought process, the brilliant Woo Young Woo graduates at the top of her class from the prestigious Seoul National University for both college and law school – but she still finds herself struggling when it comes to social interactions.
Previously on “Extraordinary Attorney Woo,” Woo Young Woo, Lee Joon Ho (Kang Tae Oh), and the rest of the Hanbada team went to Jeju for a business trip. Everyone experienced some kind of emotional changes there. In particular, Woo Young Woo faced heartbreaking reality after meeting Lee Joon Ho’s older sister. Thinking that she could never make Lee Joon Ho happy, Woo Young Woo decided to break up with him. Lee Joon Ho was confused and distraught, but he grew frustrated when she suddenly mentioned the ongoing legal case concerning the cultural heritage admission fees.
The newly released stills show Woo Young Woo’s and Lee Joon Ho’s daily life after the breakup. The two of them used to spend lunchtime together and talk about whales, but now, Woo Young Woo eats alone in her office, while Lee Joon Ho joins his colleagues.
More stills show Woo Young Woo peeking through the blinds with lonely eyes. Lee Joon Ho, who feels her gaze, looks up at her. His eyes don’t hold the same warmth and joy he regarded her with when she previously stared at him in a similar way. However, his gaze is still full of affection, but he can’t help but feel confused because they split up out of nowhere. The final photo hints that the two will face each other, and it will be intriguing to find out if the “whale couple” will reunite or not.
The drama’s production team commented, “Woo Young Woo and Lee Joon Ho will face a storm of after-effects after their breakup. Please watch to see if they will accept the painful reality and break up or muster up the courage and express their sincerity to one another. Please pay attention to the performance and growth of the rookie lawyers who will face the biggest case without Jung Myung Seok (Kang Ki Young).”
The next episode of “Extraordinary Attorney Woo” will air on August 17 at 9 p.m. KST.
