Colors TV’s upcoming drama Juhi Mui, featuring actor Eisha Singh in the lead role, has become a topic of discussion across social media platforms after the release of its first promotional video. Several viewers have pointed out similarities between the new Indian television series and the widely acclaimed South Korean drama Extraordinary Attorney Woo, prompting mixed reactions online.
The discussion began shortly after the promo introduced Eisha Singh’s character, an autistic lawyer known for her exceptional intelligence and problem-solving abilities. While many viewers appreciated the show’s focus on neurodiversity, others questioned whether the concept closely resembles the storyline of the Korean legal drama that gained global popularity in 2022.
Viewers Notice Similarities Between the Two Shows
Following the promo launch, online discussions quickly emerged on platforms such as Reddit and X (formerly Twitter). Many users highlighted what they perceived as similarities in character traits, professional background, and storytelling themes.
One social media user noted that the premise immediately reminded them of Extraordinary Attorney Woo, while another expressed hope that the Indian adaptation would bring a fresh perspective and unique character development rather than relying on familiar elements.
Some viewers also commented on the growing trend of international formats influencing Indian television content. Several users emphasized the importance of encouraging original storytelling while acknowledging that adaptations and inspired narratives are common within the entertainment industry worldwide.
As of now, the makers of Juhi Mui have not publicly addressed the comparisons.
What Is Extraordinary Attorney Woo?
Released in 2022, Extraordinary Attorney Woo became one of the most successful Korean dramas of the year. The series stars Park Eun-bin as Woo Young-woo, an autistic attorney with remarkable memory and analytical abilities.
The drama follows her journey as a young lawyer navigating professional challenges, workplace relationships, and societal perceptions while solving complex legal cases. The series received widespread praise for its performances, storytelling, and discussions surrounding autism representation.
The show is currently available for streaming on Netflix in multiple regions.
What Is Juhi Mui About?
According to the official synopsis released by Colors TV:
“Sharp-witted Juhi is an autistic prodigy who is often misunderstood by society. When challenges arise, she steps into the courtroom as a lawyer, supported by her brother, who serves as her constant guide and source of strength.”
The series aims to blend emotional storytelling with courtroom drama while highlighting the experiences of a protagonist who views the world differently from those around her.
Cast and Release Details
Alongside Eisha Singh, the show features Krushag Ghuge and Vijayendra Kumeria in key roles.
Juhi Mui is scheduled to premiere on June 29, 2026, on Colors TV and will also be available for streaming on JioHotstar.
Growing Interest in Korean Drama-Inspired Content
Korean dramas continue to enjoy significant popularity among Indian audiences, leading to increased interest in similar themes, storytelling styles, and character-driven narratives. While some viewers welcome localized adaptations, others continue to advocate for more original concepts developed specifically for Indian audiences.
Whether Juhi Mui ultimately establishes its own identity or continues to face comparisons with Extraordinary Attorney Woo remains to be seen after its official premiere.
