Apostrophe while querying mysql

Question

I have a table that contains a string column with the value "I won't go"

I want to return this row whether that user is querying "I won't go" OR "I wont go" (without apostrophe).

How should I solve this problem?

Thank you

Answer 1

How about replacing the single quote on both sides and just doing an equality comparison:

where replace(col, '''', '') = 'I wont go'
