Hello!

If we're talking about the biggest hit drama right now, it has to be "Extraordinary Attorney Woo"!

It is the story of Woo Young-woo, a rookie lawyer with a genius brain and autism spectrum disorder,

as she grows while bravely facing various walls and problems.

This drama, which started in June, has been breaking its own viewership ratings

with every episode in South Korea. It is currently a hot topic, partly because it is a production

from the TV channel "ENA," which previously had very little name recognition.

In this post, we will introduce the filming locations from the episodes aired so far★

Even now that filming has finished, the sign and the eaves remain as they were,

and it is said to be bustling with drama fans and tourists.

Episode 3. A story from Young-woo's childhood.

In this scene, when Young-woo was throwing a tantrum in front of a small supermarket, her father told her about the law regarding "obstruction of business," and she immediately stopped crying and listened to him.

It is still an active, small supermarket!

And it's located right here in Seoul.

It's said to be a privately-owned convenience store-like shop loved by the local residents.

It retains a retro atmosphere and is very nostalgic.

It's even becoming a bit of a trend among K-POP idols(!?)

"Woo to the Young to the Woo! Dong to the Geu to the Rami!"

This greeting between the two first appeared at this restaurant.

It serves as a hideout for Young-woo and Geu-rami, and the master's kind words are also heartwarming.
