Joo Hyun-young is playing the role of Dong Geu-ra-mi, Woo Young-woo (Park Eun-bin)’s best friend, in ENA’s “Extraordinary Attorney Woo“.

However, Joo Hyun-young is said to have auditioned for the role of “Spring Sunshine” Choi Soo-yeon, Woo Young-woo’s colleague at Hanbada, rather than Dong Geu-ra-mi.
Joo Hyun-young confessed, “I wasn’t confident in the role of Dong Geu-ra-mi. It was difficult and burdensome because it was such a funny role.”
She continued, “I told the writer and director that I had prepared for the role of Choi Soo-yeon, but they said that there was an actress they had in mind for Soo-yeon.”
She added, “I overcame the pressure and joined the drama because the director encouraged me to create Dong Geu-ra-mi together.”
In addition, Joo Hyun-young drew attention by revealing that she made the unique greeting method “Woo to the Young to the Woo” with Park Eun-bin.
According to the ratings research company Nielsen Korea, episode 8 of “Extraordinary Attorney Woo” recorded 13.1% nationwide, 15.0% in the metropolitan area and the highest rating of 16.8%.
