Jang Nara and Nam Ji-hyun become each other’s Good Partner
by lovepark
The streak of bad husbands continues for Jang Nara (My Happy Ending) as she joins SBS’s legal drama Good Partner. The show centers around divorce attorney Cha Eun-kyung (Jang Nara) who isn’t just good at her job but sees it as her calling. After working for 17 years, Eun-kyung may be the “national divorce attorney,” but no title can prevent her own impending separation from her husband.
Enter her complete opposite, rookie attorney Han Yuri played by Nam Ji-hyun (High Cookie). Yuri is the quintessential young pup who can’t stand injustice, but her ideologies put her at odds with Eun-kyung who believes the firm’s profit comes first and an attorney’s role is to serve their client no matter what crimes they commit. Despite their differences, Yuri builds a relationship with Eun-kyung, and as they clash, she grows as a person.
Besides our leading ladies, Kim Joon-han (Anna) has also been cast as attorney Jung Woo-jin, the leader of the second divorce team at the firm. He is Eun-kyung’s trusted junior, and at work, he acts as her brakes whenever she charges forward recklessly. Both kind-hearted and cool-headed, Woo-jin has kept a respectful distance with Eun-kyung throughout the years, but the news of her upcoming divorce causes a shift in him.
Also joining the show is Pyo Ji-hoon (Yumi’s Cells 2) who will be playing attorney Jeon Eun-ho. Since all the newbies on the divorce team at the firm tend to run away, Eun-ho is in charge of stopping them. His latest target is Yuri, but as he gets to know her better, his outlook on work and life broadens.
Directed by Kim Ga-ram (Nevertheless) with scripts penned by Choi Yoo-na (a practicing attorney and writer of ongoing webcomic Marriage Red), SBS’s Good Partner is set to premiere later this year.
