If we really get another season for extraordinary attorney woo, Minwoo better be well-developed, or I'll start a riot, no one is buying the sudden change, and I really don't want our spring sunshine to be trapped in the" I fixed the bad boy with my love" trope, I can accept a character change of heart, but you need to show me the damn growth.
Also, he getting development doesn't mean that we need excuse his bullshit, change, grow as a person doesn't mean automatic forgiveness.

Title: Happiness, My Love
Word count: 2,357
Rating: T (mentions of alcohol)
Summary: Attorney Woo wants reassurance that she makes Jun-ho happy.
"Jun-ho has been taking care of you well, huh?" Sun-hee asked. She leaned forward on her elbows, the table creaking under her weight.
Jun-ho watched his old friend from university, Park Sun-hee, talk to Attorney Woo over dinner. She was a bit of an imposing woman in the sense that her personality was strong. She liked to question people as soon as she met them, but he was concerned that it would come off as an interrogation.
Sun-hee had helped a lot with notes on their humanities subjects and had become a reliable source of information for exams. He got along with her well enough as well as with his other classmates whom he sometimes met for outings. But he was not so sure if meeting her here and now was the right time.
Sun-hee’s boyfriend nudged her and whispered something in her ear. She cleared her throat.
"Of course, he's taking good care of you," Sun-hee said, answering her own question. She brushed the bangs of her short black hair out of her eyes.
Attorney Woo, whose lips were parted as if about to speak, closed her mouth in a hurry. Jun-ho glanced toward her, concern pooling in his belly.
He knew she was uncomfortable in settings like these. Meeting people that would question her to the point of discomfort was not among her list of favorite things to do. But the two of them had run into Sun-hee and her boyfriend while they were on a walk together around the neighborhood. Sun-hee had stopped them to greet them, and the rest was history.
To his credit, Jun-ho was about to suggest that they would meet another time instead, but it was Attorney Woo who had said otherwise.
“I want to meet with your friends,” she had insisted. Her voice was high-pitched, determined. He could never say no to her.

For the planned American adaptation of “Extraordinary Attorney Woo”, this would be how I’d cast the series:
(Note: obviously the names would be changed due to the difference in setting)
1) Kayla Cromer as Woo Young-woo
2) Rish Shah as Lee Jun-ho
3) Lance Reddick as Jung Myung-seok
4) Jeffrey Dean Morgan as Woo Gwang-ho
5) Chloe Bennet as Choi Su-yeon
6) Anthony Ramos as Kwon Min-woo
7) Maya Hawke as Dong Geu-ra-mi

My New Dream
Jung Meyong-Sook leaves Hanbada and starts a private practice along with Woo Gwang-ho. Maybe with Ryu Jae Sook.

my theory about why her dad didn't seem to say anything after youngwoo asks about junho on the phone to him is that she probably just ended the call after that, and he was in too much shock(?) to say anything or call her back.
we know she tends to call and abruptly end it when "she gets what she wants" (ep 2: calling junho to talk about whales while they're getting ready for work, ep (UMM WHERE DID THE REST OF MY POST GO, WHY DID IT DISAPPEAR??) 12: calling junho just to see his face). So when they changed scene, i just assumed that that was implied to have happened.
we also know that even though he raised her for 27 years, her dad is learning new things about the current and growing youngwoo, and get shocked by some of it (eh, you've seen the show). so i thought that she ended the call, and he was too shocked to respond or even call her back to talk about it.

One thing I like about Extraordinary Attorney Woo is that the men are comparatively simple and basic while the women are all multifaceted.
Like these women are playing 4D chess while the dudes have barely mastered checkers.

I keep thinking about Woo Young-woo's mother, Tae Su-mi and the choice she made.
The drama hasn't told us anything from her perspective yet, but there are some indisputable facts and some likely possibilities.
She was in her early 20s, a promising student with a bright career in law ahead. She fell in love and got pregnant and suddenly her whole future looked dark. She was considering abortion, but at the desperate pleas of the man she loved, she agreed to go through with the pregnancy. She stayed at home for 9 months, risked her reputation and her life to give birth in a home where she must have faced constant hostility from her parents, and then gave the child up.
I have a lot of admiration for this woman.
She didn't have to go through the pregnancy. She didn't have to take a long leave from school causing rumours to arise which followed her around for decades. She didn't have to stay stuck at home for so many months, in a likely cold household where she would have faced immense pressures to abort the child.
She went through all of it because the father wanted the baby to be born and Tae Su-mi respected that choice.
From Young-woo's perspective, her mother abandoned her and that's a fact too.
But I can't see Tae Su-mi as the villain when she clearly went through an extremely painful period of mourning for giving Young-woo up. It seems clear to me that she only decided to keep the child because she knew she could trust Young-woo's dad to raise her well.
And while I absolutely love Woo Gwang-ho, Dad, I can't see him as just the valiant hero.
He gave up his career and made his own life extremely hard. Then he made Young-woo the center of his existence to the point where he thinks he has the right to decide whether or not his Junior can use his daughter to needle her mother.
"You can do it just once! I will permit it once!" he tells the woman, as if hurting Tae Su-mi is a justifiable action and using Young-woo as the weapon is an acceptable price to him.
But Young-woo isn't his possession.
And Tae Su-mi isn't a villain for choosing not to be with this man.
I really do love Dad for how wonderful he is with Young-woo, but he did make that story way too much about himself.
