Jang Na-ra returns as star lawyer in Good Partner 2

SBS will premiere Good Partner 2 on November 20, following the first season's peak viewership rating of 18.7% in the Seoul metropolitan area. The new season features Jang Na-ra as Cha Eun-gyeong, who has opened Ribom Law Firm to seek a new partner.

The new SBS Friday-Saturday drama 'Good Partner 2' is set to premiere on Friday, November 20, at 9:50 PM.

The production team for 'Good Partner 2'—directed by Seo Min-jeong, written by Choi Yu-na, and produced by Studio S, Studio & NEW, and Artist Company—released a teaser poster on the 14th. The poster depicts the new beginning of Cha Eun-gyeong (played by Jang Na-ra), who has returned as the head of the divorce law firm Ribom Law Firm, and announces her search for a partner to join her.

The original 'Good Partner,' which aired in 2024, was highly acclaimed for its realistic portrayal of the struggles between a star lawyer for whom divorce is a "calling" and a rookie lawyer experiencing divorce for the first time, as well as the dilemmas that arise during the dissolution of families. The drama caused a sensation, resonating with viewers by breaking stereotypes about divorce through the activities of divorce lawyers, and recorded a peak viewership rating of 18.7% in the Seoul metropolitan area according to Nielsen Korea, making it the highest-rated SBS drama of that year.

Returning after two years amid high expectations, 'Good Partner 2' will depict a "refreshing divorce show" featuring the partnership between Cha Eun-gyeong (Jang Na-ra), a representative lawyer who is "built for" divorce, and Kang Hye-seong (Kim Hye-yoon), an experienced lawyer who is "sincere" about divorce. Expectations are heightened as divorce lawyer Choi Yu-na returns to write the script and director Seo Min-jeong joins to provide sensitive and sophisticated direction. Furthermore, the pairing of Jang Na-ra, who achieved a career-defining role and won the honor of the 2024 SBS Drama Awards, with the trusted actress Kim Hye-yoon is exciting drama fans.

The released teaser poster raises anticipation by signaling the grand comeback of Cha Eun-gyeong, who has successfully established herself independently. Having left Daejeong Law Firm to open Ribom Law Firm to help clients find their "spring" again, Cha Eun-gyeong's dignified and relaxed smile reflects the composure of a 20-year veteran star lawyer and a more composed, solid inner self. In particular, the phrase "Looking for a partner to join the second divorce show" added to the empty seat beside Cha Eun-gyeong stimulates curiosity about the new characters who will join her second chapter.

While the "sweet and salty" womanhood between the efficient veteran star lawyer Cha Eun-gyeong and the "bulldozer" rookie lawyer Han Yu-ri heated up Season 1, Season 2 is expected to showcase an evolved "power-up" womanhood where both partners' capabilities are heightened. Attention is focused on what cases await Cha Eun-gyeong as the head of Ribom Law Firm, the criteria for the partner she will choose, and the second divorce show she will perform with her new partner.

The production team of 'Good Partner' stated, "The second season goes a step further from focusing solely on divorce cases to pay attention to the lives and choices of clients that continue even after a divorce. You can look forward to the refreshing activities of Cha Eun-gyeong as she achieves her second growth alongside new partners."

The new SBS Friday-Saturday drama 'Good Partner 2' will have its first broadcast on Friday, November 20, at 9:50 PM.
