3 Intriguing Relationships To Keep An Eye On In “Good Partner”

Aug 13, 2024
by E Ezeji

SBS’s “Good Partner” has highlighted three key relationships between the drama’s characters that viewers should pay close attention to!

Written by an actual divorce attorney, “Good Partner” is a new drama that depicts the humorous struggles of two very different divorce lawyers: Cha Eun Kyung (Jang Nara), a star lawyer for whom divorce is her calling, and Han Yu Ri (Nam Ji Hyun), a rookie lawyer who is still new to divorce.

Choi Yuna, who is an actual divorce lawyer and the writer of “Good Partner,” previously stated, “‘Good Partner’ is a story about people becoming good partners to one another. Please pay attention to the various partnerships in the show, whether it’s between the lawyers, between clients and lawyers, or even between parents and children.”

Below are three key relationships among the four members of the Daejeong Law Firm’s divorce team, whose future developments viewers should look forward to.

Cha Eun Kyung & Han Yu Ri: From rivals to good partners

Cha Eun Kyung and Han Yu Ri, who were constantly at odds, have now become good partners who support each other. Despite their different values and methods, Cha Eun Kyung and Han Yu Ri share the same goals, and their ‘mentor-mentee’ chemistry stands out. The transformation of these two characters, who became catalysts for each other’s growth by acknowledging their differences, has resonated with viewers. Veteran divorce lawyer Cha Eun Kyung, who once only cared about efficiency, learns to appreciate the new lawyer Han Yu Ri’s perspective on cases, while Han Yu Ri learns to respect Cha Eun Kyung’s strategic approach.

Cha Eun Kyung & Jung Woo Jin: A Special Senior-Junior Relationship

Jung Woo Jin (Kim Jun Han), with his gentle charisma and attentive nature, is a steadfast supporter who has been by Cha Eun Kyung’s side for a long time. He is the only one who can gauge Cha Eun Kyung’s state just by looking at her and is not afraid to speak bluntly to her. Cha Eun Kyung, in turn, finds Jung Woo Jin to be the only person she can truly open up to.

Jang Nara Faces Off With Han Jae Yi As Her Custody Battle Heats Up In

Jang Nara Faces Off With Han Jae Yi As Her Custody Battle Heats Up In "Good Partner"

SBS’s “Good Partner” is finally returning from its three-week hiatus!

 

Written by an actual divorce attorney, “Good Partner” is a drama that depicts the humorous struggles of two very different divorce lawyers: Cha Eun Kyung (Jang Nara), a star lawyer for whom divorce is her calling, and Han Yu Ri (Nam Ji Hyun), a rookie lawyer who is still new to divorce.

Spoilers

On the previous episode of “Good Partner,” Cha Eun Kyung and Han Yu Ri went after Kim Ji Sang (Ji Seung Hyun) by accusing him and Choi Sa Ra (Han Jae Yi) of de facto bigamy. But just as it seemed they had gained the upper hand in the couple’s bitter divorce battle, Cha Eun Kyung was furious to learn that Choi Sa Ra had approached her daughter and taken her out of school.

 

In newly released stills from the drama’s long-awaited next episode, Cha Eun Kyung and Han Yu Ri put up a tough fight in the courtroom on the first day of their trial. As Cha Eun Kyung sits beside Han Yu Ri with a stiff expression, Kim Ji Sang’s divorce attorney Kang Sang Joo (Kim Byung Choon) looks relaxed and entirely at ease arguing with her.

Another set of stills captures a tense face-off between Cha Eun Kyung and Choi Sa Ra, who brazenly shows not an ounce of guilt or remorse. As if unable to believe what she’s hearing, Cha Eun Kyung stares back at the insolent Choi Sa Ra with an expression of amused incredulity.

 

Good-Partner-2-1.jpg

 

The “Good Partner” production team teased, “In Episode 6, Cha Eun Kyung and Kim Ji Sang will fight for custody of their daughter Kim Jae Hee. The fierce divorce battle will unfold in an exciting way.”

 

They added, “Please also look forward to Jang Nara’s emotional acting as she portrays [Cha Eun Kyung’s] guilt over hurting her daughter, as well as her rage towards Kim Ji Sang and CHoi Sa Ra.”

 

The next episode of “Good Partner” will air on August 16 at 10 p.m. KST.

There’s something about Jang Nara’s character that is not consistent with her being a super duper divorce lawyer. How could she be surprised by CSR’s reaction? She has dealt with many divorce cases, she knew the woman for ten years, yet she can’t predict the mistress’ reaction? 

 

I have said it before, she seems to want to lose the case.

Jang Nara And Nam Ji Hyun Take On A New Case As "Good Partner" Returns From 3-Week Hiatus

SBS’s “Good Partner” is back!

 

Written by an actual divorce attorney, “Good Partner” is a drama that depicts the humorous struggles of two very different divorce lawyers: Cha Eun Kyung (Jang Nara), a star lawyer for whom divorce is her calling, and Han Yu Ri (Nam Ji Hyun), a rookie lawyer who is still new to divorce.

 

After a three-week hiatus due to coverage of the 2024 Paris Olympics, the popular drama will return with its sixth episode tonight.

Spoilers

On the previous episode of “Good Partner,” Cha Eun Kyung and Han Yu Ri fiercely fought back against Kim Ji Sang (Ji Seung Hyun) and Choi Sa Ra (Han Jae Yi)’s ruthless attacks on Cha Eun Kyung’s character. In a bold counterattack, the duo accused Cha Eun Kyung’s cheating husband of de facto bigamy, seemingly turning the tables in the couple’s vicious custody battle.

 

In the drama’s upcoming episode, Cha Eun Kyung and Han Yu Ri will take on a new case amidst the chaos of Cha Eun Kyung’s own divorce. Newly released stills from the episode show a new client meeting with the two lawyers at their firm, where they discuss the client’s battle for custody rights.

 

Cha Eun Kyung, who is in the midst of waging her own custody war, advises the new client with a confident expression, while Han Yu Ri looks at both Cha Eun Kyung and their new client with visible concern in her eyes.

 

Another photo captures the client bursting into tears as she embraces her two children, revealing just how much the custody battle means to her.

The last scene was so what I was waiting for: ‘ You’re fired’. 
 

Was it because she was looking at confidential info when she entered CEK’s office? Serves her right. Shameless harlot.

 

Can the cheating husband be a good father? That should be the judge’s thought. EK has not been the primary caregiver.

Nam Ji Hyun's Father's Mistress Asks Jang Nara To Fire Her In

Nam Ji Hyun's Father's Mistress Asks Jang Nara To Fire Her In "Good Partner"

A new character is about to shake things up on SBS’s “Good Partner”!

 

Written by an actual divorce attorney, “Good Partner” is a drama that depicts the humorous struggles of two very different divorce lawyers: Cha Eun Kyung (Jang Nara), a star lawyer for whom divorce is her calling, and Han Yu Ri (Nam Ji Hyun), a rookie lawyer who is still new to divorce.

Spoilers

On the previous episode of “Good Partner,” Cha Eun Kyung and Kim Ji Sang (Ji Seung Hyun) went head-to-head in their battle for custody rights. Meanwhile, a different custody case led Han Yu Ri to reflect on what it meant to have the right to be a parent.

 

However, even more drama is in store for the already swamped Cha Eun Kyung and Han Yu Ri. In newly released stills from the drama’s next episode, the duo faces an unexpected visit from Kim Hee Ra (Lee Jin Hee), the woman with whom Han Yu Ri’s father cheated on her mother—and the person responsible for giving Han Yu Ri and her mother immeasurable pain and wounds that have yet to heal.

 

After showing up at their law firm to meet with Cha Eun Kyung, Kim Hee Ra makes a bold request: “Fire Han Yu Ri immediately.”

In the next set of photos, Cha Eun Kyung meets with Han Yu Ri’s mother Kim Kyung Sook (Seo Jeong Yeon), who hands the lawyer mystery documents inside an envelope.

 

The expression of urgency on Kim Kyung Sook’s face raises the question of how Kim Hee Ra’s reappearance will affect—and possibly endanger—Han Yu Ri’s family.

The next episode of “Good Partner” will air on August 17 at 10 p.m. KST.

The mistress is pregnant!! The cheater husband was very cutting, he told her that he never intended to marry her and she wasn’t going to live with him and Jae Hui ever. Now her pregnancy will help her get at least child support if not marriage. 
 

She was promoted to chief manager after 10 years, and hours later she was sacked, fired, terminated. :hwaiting2:

Written by an actual divorce attorney, “Good Partner” is a drama that depicts the humorous struggles of two very different divorce lawyers: Cha Eun Kyung (Jang Nara), a star lawyer for whom divorce is her calling, and Han Yu Ri (Nam Ji Hyun), a rookie lawyer who is still new to divorce.

It remains to be seen how this will affect the situation and how the already strained relationship between Kim Ji Sang and Choi Sa Ra will develop.

Sometimes a spouse cheats on the partner because they fell in love, their true love. But there are those who are looking for a way out from a stifling or meaningless marriage and unfortunately, chose cheating. The husband KJS might have fallen into this category. CSR is at the losing end because she’s just a stop gap measure for him and he had made it crystal clear. He might marry her but it wouldn’t stop him from moving out again.

What is her motivation? She was a secretary among lawyers and sleeping with her boss’ husband who was a doctor must seem a big step up.

We will see tonight

CSR must be desperate. She has worked there for 10 years. If she started at 21, she’s 31, but I am guessing  she’s more than 35 from the way she behaved. Does she feel her bio clock ticking? 
 

KJS was shocked? Dude were you using protection? If you don’t want kids then keep your zipper up or use protection. It’s not the woman’s responsibility only and in this case, she wants to get pregnant.
