Lawyer Woo Young Woo displays common traits in many autistic people, including an aversion to being touched, finding it painful to look people in the eye, a deep passion for one topic (also referred to as a 'special interest' in the autism community), in her case whales. Other common traits she shows are immediate echolalia (the practice of repeating what others say, used for a variety of reasons) and a need to organize items into neat rows and piles - since autistic people take in a huge amount of sensory information compared to allistic people, organizing what they can helps soothe them. She has savant abilities, which is portrayed often in media but is actually uncommon in autistic people - only about 10% according to most research. For Woo Young Woo, this manifests in an incredible memory, excellent pattern recognition, and the ability to recall things read a long time ago.
The five sided pins the lawyers wear on their left upper chest area is a symbol of the judiciary in Korea and indicates they are members of the legal profession. The red sashes worn by some of the lawyers indicates they serve the government as prosecutors.
In August 2022 it was announced by the production company that a second series of the show would be produced, to be possibly aired in 2024.
Lawyer Woo Young Woo often counts to three on her fingers before entering a room or building. However, some notable exceptions where she does not count to three seem to be familiar places, such as her home, her office, and her father's restaurant. This counting is likely a form of stimming, which is behavior an autistic person utilizes to cope with difficult situations and unknown places, among other reasons.
Several locations from the show have become popular tourist spots in Korea. These include the restaurant Woo Young Woo's father owns, which is actually a real Japanese food restaurant. Also, the entrance to the building where Woo Young Woo works has become a popular place for people to try entering the revolving doors like Woo Young Woo does on the show.
