• "Extraordinary Attorney Woo" Sparks Netizens Curiosity About Woo Young Woo's Income as an Attorney IRL

    How much is Woo Young Woo's salary in the drama 'Extraordinary Attorney Woo', which is drawing a lot of attention recently?

    In the play, Woo Young Woo has an autism spectrum disorder, but after graduating from the Seoul National University School of Economics and the Law School of the same university, she is one of the talented people who scored 1500 points or more in the '2022 11th Bar Examination'.

    She even held first place, earning close to perfect grades throughout his law school years.

    After that, she was hired as a new lawyer at a law firm, Hanbada, a large law firm.

    If so, how much salary will Woo Young Woo receive every month, who has not been in the company for a year?

    In the drama award, Hanbada, a law firm, is ranked second in the industry after 'Taesan', which holds the top spot among large law firms.

    In reality, Kim & Chang Law Firm is the number one large law firm in Korea, and Kwangjang Law Firm and Pacific Law Firm (Limited) Pacific are competing for second place.

    Accordingly, it was revealed that the salary of first-year lawyers in the square is 12 million won, and the salary of first-year lawyers in the Pacific is 13 million won before tax.

    In addition, the production team of 'Extraordinary Attorney Woo' is known to have brought the motif of the sea from the Pacific Ocean.

    The Pacific Ocean is similar to 'Hanbada', a name that symbolizes the great sea, and the location of the company is also the same as Yeoksam Station.

    In addition, it is highly probable that the salaries were set on a similar basis because she also provided legal advice from a lawyer affiliated with the Pacific during the production of the drama.

    Based on this fact, it is estimated that Woo Young Woo's monthly salary in the drama is 12 to 13 million won before tax.

    Users of the online community ' Theku ' who saw this responded, "I'll call you Woo Young Woo from now on", "I can't even use my monthly salary instead", "I'll save a lot after tax", "Lawyers really earn a lot more than I imagined", etc. showed

    Meanwhile, 'Extraordinary Attorney Woo' airs on Wednesdays and Thursdays at 9 PM.

  • NewJeans Minji writes touching letter on her birthday during activity halt: “We didn’t stop and we won’t stop”

    NewJeans' Minji touched fans' hearts with a handwritten letter on her birthday — even while the group is currently unable to promote due to legal issues.

    On May 7, Minji celebrated her birthday by sharing a heartfelt message on the group’s personal SNS account, which the members opened themselves to stay connected with fans.

    Minji began her letter with honesty, writing, “I think I’m living a busier life than I expected. When I finally looked up, it was already May, and it was my birthday.”

    She admitted that she had a lot she wanted to say, but her thoughts felt “messy.” Still, her message to fans was clear, “I just hope that I, our members, and Bunnies can all be happy. Happiness is the biggest goal in my life.”

    Minji then opened up about her personal journey and struggles, saying, “I sometimes think that running toward my happiness by doing what I love might look foolish to others. But isn’t giving up your happiness now for the sake of a future that might not even come… too harsh on yourself?”

    Despite everything, she ended on a hopeful note, “I really miss the times when we shared our feelings through the good music we made together. But I always look forward to what’s ahead."

    She added, "We didn’t stop here, and we’re not going to stop! It might look like we’re standing still, but I believe we’re growing deeper.”

    Her message comes during a difficult time for NewJeans. The group announced last year that they were cutting ties with ADOR, their original agency, after trust was broken. They later began working independently under the new name ‘NJZ’.

    However, ADOR responded with legal action — claiming the exclusive contract with NewJeans was still valid and asking the court to stop the group from promoting or signing deals.

    The court sided with ADOR and granted an injunction, forcing NewJeans to pause their activities. Their appeal was rejected, and they’ve now filed a second appeal.

    Through it all, Minji’s message proves one thing — even when forced to stop, NewJeans' hearts are still moving forward.
