In 'Good Partner 2,' Jang Na-ra, Kim Hye-yoon, Pyo Ji-hoon, and Park Hae-jin return with an even more fiery and thrilling "soda" divorce show.

SBS's new Friday-Saturday drama 'Good Partner 2' (directed by Seo Min-jeong, written by Choi Yu-na, planned by Studio S, Studio & New, and Artist Company), which premieres on November 20, is a "soda" divorce show featuring divorce attorney Cha Eun-kyung (played by Jang Na-ra), for whom divorce is her "nature," and experienced attorney Kang Hye-sung (played by Kim Hye-yoon), who is "serious" about divorce. The two become good partners to each other, delivering a thrilling catharsis and empathy through the stories of attorneys who choose the best among the second-best options at life's crossroads with no right answers, continuing their lives even after divorce.

Choi Yu-na, an attorney specializing in divorce, returns as the writer, while Seo Min-jeong, a director known for her sensibility and delicacy, takes on direction, further heightening anticipation. Above all, Jang Na-ra, who not only set a new benchmark for "character of a lifetime" with 'Good Partner' but also received the honor at the 2024 SBS Drama Awards, is joined by Kim Hye-yoon, who will act as her new partner; Pyo Ji-hoon, a reliable support force; and Park Hae-jin, who adds fun as a powerful rival.

The released script reading scene further stimulates anticipation. First, Jang Na-ra, returning as Cha Eun-kyung, the representative attorney of Law Firm Ribom after being a star attorney, led the drama with deepened acting prowess. Having left Law Firm Daeseong to open 'Law Firm Ribom'—aiming to bring spring back to clients—and embarking on a new beginning, she unfolds her second divorce show even more fiercely with her new partners. Jang Na-ra proved the true worth of an actor who can be trusted by portraying the charm of the even more solidified Cha Eun-kyung through unwavering, cold charisma and delicate emotional acting.

Kim Hye-yoon radiated bold energy in the role of Kang Hye-sung, a five-year experienced attorney who is serious about divorce. Kang Hye-sung is an experienced attorney who has established her position in the region by consecutively winning civil and criminal cases based on outstanding quick-wittedness and tenacious perseverance. Curiosity builds as to what kind of divorce specialist attorney Kang Hye-sung, who is particularly serious about divorce more than civil and criminal cases, will grow into after meeting Cha Eun-kyung. Attention is also focused on Kim Hye-yoon's performance in portraying the charm of Kang Hye-sung, armed with passion and pluck. The new womanhood to be created by the seasoned, deep-experienced Cha Eun-kyung and the bold, passionate "winning machine" Kang Hye-sung is also expected to be a viewing point. The seamless back-and-forth between Jang Na-ra and Kim Hye-yoon also raised expectations for the birth of a new 'Good Partner.'

Pyo Ji-hoon's cheerful performance in the role of Jeon Eun-ho, who left Daeseong with Cha Eun-kyung to grow as an attorney at Law Firm Ribom, also caught the eye. Jeon Eun-ho, loved by colleagues and clients for his approachable charm, is a "rocket divorce" type attorney aiming for quick divorces and early departures from work. Following Season 1, where he added vitality with his optimistic personality and outstanding sociability, in Season 2 he exerts his presence as Ribom's human interpreter who decodes the blunt speech of Power T representative Cha Eun-kyung.

Park Hae-jin took on the role of Park Tae-su, an attorney at Law Firm Tae Su-ui (CEO), a powerful rival to Law Firm Ribom, showcasing his presence. Park Tae-su is a college classmate of Cha Eun-kyung who has built recognition by running "Law School Tae-su," which has 200,000 subscribers; he is now a figure competing for the top spot in the divorce field. Curiosity builds as to what kind of confrontation he will set up with Cha Eun-kyung while targeting clients with the belief that "attorneys are service workers." Park Hae-jin perfectly expressed the gambler's charm of Park Tae-su, who possesses a heavy yet relaxed presence, adding immersion.

The production team of 'Good Partner 2' stated, "In Season 2, we will come to you with even more intense divorce cases. The process in which attorneys with different strategies and values resolve cases in their own ways unfolds interestingly," adding, "Please look forward to the new fun of Season 2 created by the relationships of the even more diverse characters, including new partners and rivals," heightening anticipation.
