Without a doubt, Extraordinary Attorney Woo is one of the most successful K-dramas of all time. One of the reasons for its success is the different heartfelt stories portrayed by Extraordinary Attorney Woo guest stars in every season.

Yeong-ran was accused of attempted murder on her husband, Park Gyu-sik (played by Lee Do-kyung), who was known for his short temper. After hitting her husband in the head with an iron, Gyu-sik suffered a hematoma.
Yeong-ran was arrested and faced trial over the incident. She was Young Woo's first client.
