On November 12, SBS unveiled two-shot stills capturing the dramatic relationship shift between Cha Eun-kyung (Jang Nara) and Kang Hye-sung (Kim Hyeyoon) in the upcoming Friday-Saturday drama "Good Partner 2" (written by Choi Yu-na, directed by Seo Min-jeong), which premieres on November 20.
"Good Partner 2" is a refreshing divorce drama that follows managing partner Cha Eun-kyung, for whom divorce cases are second nature, and experienced attorney Kang Hye-sung, who is genuinely devoted to divorce litigation, as they team up to become each other's "good partners." Writer Choi Yu-na, an actual divorce lawyer, returned to pen the script following Season 1, teaming up with director Seo Min-jeong to raise viewers' expectations.
The released stills vividly capture the duo's intense initial meeting alongside their transformed dynamic. Going head-to-head in a divorce lawsuit as attorneys from "Law Firm Libom" and "Law Firm Chunjung" respectively, the two engage in an unyielding battle where neither gives an inch. The sharp, piercing gazes between veteran Cha Eun-kyung and passionate attorney Kang Hye-sung—who refuses to back down for her client—generate palpable tension.
Subsequent stills capture a 180-degree shift in tone, making their previous fierce clash feel worlds away. Deep trust can be felt as the two exchange bright smiles while facing each other. Attention is focused on the professional womance of these two attorneys with contrasting mindsets and methods as they collide and discover common ground.
Jang Nara selected "veteran skill and passion" as key words to describe their chemistry, sharing, "Looking at Kang Hye-sung, I felt she had a lot in common with Cha Eun-kyung's past. Because they share both similarities and differences, it was truly enjoyable to act alongside her." Kim Hyeyoon also highlighted what viewers should anticipate, stating, "I hope viewers will focus on how they fill in each other's shortcomings, grow together, and become true 'good partners' to one another."
SBS's new Friday-Saturday drama "Good Partner 2" premieres on Friday, November 20 at 9:50 PM.
