“Extraordinary Attorney Woo” cast and crew to receive a “reward” for the drama’s syndrome-level popularity 

A reward for the “Extraordinary Attorney Woo” team is being discussed.

According to SPOTV News on July 20th, a reward for the cast and crew of ENA’s drama “Extraordinary Attorney Woo” is being discussed in celebration of its success. 

After the last filming day (July 14th), it is said a reward for the cast and crew was brought up during the wrap-up party held on July 15th. Although the schedule or method has not yet been specified, it is expected that a special reward will be given as the drama has been recording exceptional results.

In particular, although the filming has been completed, the production crew, including director Yoo In Sik, is still in the process of editing the remaining footage for the second half of the drama. There is a lot of CG in the scenes where whales appear, so it is not an easy job. The actors are also busy since they are receiving many offers. Therefore, how to celebrate the success of “Extraordinary Attorney Woo” in the form of a reward is still under discussion. 

According to Nielsen Korea, “Extraordinary Attorney Woo” premiered to an average nationwide rating of 0.9%. The ratings then doubled in the 2nd and 3rd episodes, respectively. In particular, in episode 5, the ratings saw a whopping increase of 3.9%. It recorded 9.6% in episode 6, gaining explosive popularity, with the ratings rising nearly 10 times compared to the first episode. “Extraordinary Attorney Woo” has broken the highest viewership ratings ever for the cable TV channel ENA. 

ENA is attracting viewers by scheduling reruns of “Extraordinary Attorney Woo” on all channels of its affiliates and aggressively doing marketing to promote the drama. 

In addition, on Netflix, which decided to invest in “Extraordinary Attorney Woo” from the beginning of its production, the drama entered the global ranking at No.8 immediately after its release in Asia. In  Latin America and Europe, it took the top spot for non-English TV shows for two weeks in a row.  

The production company of “Extraordinary Attorney Woo”, AStory, is witnessing its stock price soaring. Following “Stove League”, “Do you like Brahms”, and “The King’s Affection”, advertisement offers are pouring in for actress Park Eun Bin, who succeeded in viewership ratings four times in a row. Although half of the 16 episodes of “Extraordinary Attorney Woo” have not yet been released, requests for season 2 are already everywhere. 

Meanwhile, episode 7 of “Extraordinary Attorney Woo” will be broadcast on ENA at 9 pm KST on July 20th. It will be released at 10:30 pm KST on Netflix.
