SBS K-drama Good Partner with Jang Nara and Nam Ji Hyun Break 10% Ratings by Episode 3
There is a new K-drama on a quick rise to popularity and it’s one I initially didn’t have much interest in but whenever I hear something is legit good it’s always worth checking out. SBS premiered Good Partner with Jang Nara and Nam Ji Hyun last week and since then the drama has increased in ratings and got past the 2-digit mark in episode 3 with 10.5%. It’s a legal drama about lawyers in a family practice dealing with divorce and reportedly the screenwriter spent 5 years writing the script.

SBS has mastered the legal/crime genre. They never fail with their procedurals but when will JNR ever get a non cheating/shady husband.
I checked this out from curiosity and yes their acting is on point but no the cheating husband made my blood boil and yah not my drama. I’m sure the main main lady has her faults in her marriage but sheesh that husband is something else. But for those who don’t mind that aspect should like it more or less.
Cheating drama is not my type so I will pass on this. A clip on this drama appeared when I scrolled on social media, it was about jang nara convincing nam jihyun that the client husband is cheating despite there being no evidence. I know that in this drama jang nara character must be right. But in real life, convincing that the wife is always right, even as a woman doesn’t feel right.
Yeah, honestly we’ve been seeing a lot of this ‘wife is always right’ crap parroted by women.
That’s not how real life or the justice system works and those people are in for a rude awakening.
Pass… but Kdramas are so skewed towards a female audience except for sageuk that they can get away with the man bashing.
lol i swear i only see this commenter come out of the woodwork to post comments defending men 😂 hilarious 😂 i wonder if she lurks this blog, waiting for any opportunity to rant about how men are soooo “mistreated” nowadays 😂
pick-me girls, please remember that without the feminists you all love bashing, you all wouldn’t be able to post your anti-women opinions online, you all would be stuck in your houses, with no rights, no freedom, as properties of your male spouses. you all wouldn’t even be allowed to have opinions. hope this helps
hi rina, your precious men literally gang-r*ped a monitor lizard and ate it afterwards 🙃 also, look up the nth room case in korea and while you’re at it, look up junko furuta’s case as well. but go on, keep upholding the honor of your oh-so-good men 🙃
@lmaaoo
Just please, stop using this disgusting termin “pick me girl”. You can’t stand for your opinion without putting this stupid label on other woman?
Don’t even try to talk about feminism and “anti-woman” comment, when you’re using this mysogynistic termin just shut up another person and try high to show that her opinion isn’t important.
@sparklesparkle @lmao
Just looking at the timing of this two comments anyone can tell that you’re the same person.
“Your precious men” – are you consuming that ALL men the same?? If some men did disgusting thing, when you can talk like all men in the world did it? Don’t you have a brother, a son, a father, a lover, a man-friend?
Or do you think this is how feminists thinking? Only radical feminists think that way, other feminists have common sense.
You talk like being anti-women is a bad thing, and at the same time being anti-men herself, you’re just hypocrite.
I like both actresses, and both make a great duo . And for once , divorce isn’t treated in a manichaean way .
I like them too!!!!! We both have similar outlooks in some matters and people.
@HL , yes it’s true . I like that Nam Ji Hyun is taking various projects , she can be the lead, or team up with another veteran or popular actresses without trying to overshadow them even she is talented . I like her modesty , the same goes for Jang Na Ra wich is a veteran . They aren’t IT girls but they are good actresses with a solid career .
Nothing but love for both. Especially really respect Nam Jihyun career choices past few years, all women centric and a thriller. Wish my other favs explored other genres other than romance.
I would’ve watched it but I’m quite tired of cheating husbands. Theres only so many reiterations of that before it’s just same old.
I love it as a divorce attorney is writing this script. It paints a realistic picture of divorce and how women are affected by them. Life is not always a fairytale.
2 well respected actresses…I will watch as I trust them to deliver.
I’d be interested in a legal drama but divorce attorney and marriage affairs? Sounds pretty boring. Life is dry enough dealing with all sorts of petty trivia. Why should I spend my time of entertainment watching ppl dealing with daily mundane? LOL. Legal dramas are always intriguing when mixed well with mystery and thrillers, and thought-provoking when touching justice and humanity. I can’t foresee what the drama wants to sell by focusing on issues a lot of marriage may encounter. Married ppl don’t need a drama to lecture them lessons and single ppl won’t have anything rosy to fantasize. LOL. I’m definitely not a fan of this genre, similar to the kind of a slice of life. Boring.
True, I wouldn’t watch legal drama just for divorce legal advice, at least it would be more interesting if the theme is civil law as a whole
For a legal drama, Lawless Lawyer is good, getting more and more interesting. I’d be interested in something similar, not a story entangled with trivial family relationship.
Lawless lawyer , i watched a long time ago and i enjoyed it . Nothing To lose aka Judge vs judge with Park Eun Bin , Diary of a prosecutor , an old drama but i don’t know if it’s outdated now The scale of providence , a bcomedy style one Legal High, … i watched them !I recommend Chief of Staff even if it’s a political drama genre that i don’t like but this one was good . And Mouse with Lee Seung Gi ( serial killer drama)
Its a pretty fun drama. And no, they aren’t painting the woman as completely blameless in regards to their marriages falling apart here but bear in mind, South Korea doesn’t allow no fault divorce which does huge disservice to women in there trapped in bad marriages and 50% married men in South Korea end up cheating on their spouses as per statistics. Most men end up getting services from sex workers at least once in their lifetime. So, its not completely off when these shows are centered on women’s perspective or show women to be largely the victims because that is sadly a reality.
