Contrast between Jung Myung-seok and Ryu Jae-sook… Women’s solidarity against discrimination
The ENA drama ‘Strange Lawyer Woo Young-woo’ (hereafter ‘Woo Young-woo’) posed questions about the conscience and duty of a lawyer and recorded a viewership rating of 14%.
According to Nielsen Korea, a ratings research company on the 5th, the 12th episode of ‘Woo Young-woo’, which was broadcast at 9 pm the previous day, was counted at 14.9% (non-terrestrial paid households).
It increased slightly from the 11th (14.1%).
In the 12th episode, Woo Young-woo (Park Eun-bin) took on a lawyer who felt guilty about his conscience, and the process of thinking about the role of a lawyer was drawn.
Woo Young-woo defends Mir Life, who advised 100 female employees to resign due to clever sexism.
Woo Young-woo, who has to argue that it was the voluntary resignation of female employees, rather than an unfair dismissal, is distressing.
To Woo Young-woo, senior lawyer Jeong Myeong-seok (Kang Ki-young) and the other lawyer, Ryu Jae-sook (Lee Bong-ryun), who defended the plaintiff’s side, have different opinions.
Jung Myung-seok exclaimed, “It is for the judge to decide which side is social justice, not the lawyer’s.” .
The author did not give a clear answer to Woo Young-woo’s concerns.
However, it is emphasized several times that Jung Myeong-seok trembles in anxiety for fear of retaliation from a client who has served as a lawyer in the past.
Although he successfully defended the second generation chaebol who brutally murdered his father, Jung Myeong-seok’s unhappy appearance contrasted with Ryu Jae-suk, who was happy and smiling even though he lost in court.
‘Woo Young-woo’ warmly captures the solidarity of women against discrimination.
Plaintiffs consoled another female employee who testified in favor of the company in court, saying, “People have different opinions, so don’t take it too seriously.” add
The protest against unfair dismissal started by three people also gained strength and grew into a struggle of dozens of people, and Ryu Jae-sook and fellow lawyer Choi Su-yeon (Ha Yoon-kyung) help Kwon Min-woo (Jong-hyuk Joo)’s trick.
