The popular Korean drama Good Partner has been making waves with its compelling storyline and stellar performances. Recently, it achieved impressive ratings, with its latest episodes hitting double digits. However, fans of the show will have to wait a bit longer for the next installment.
Postponement Due to Olympics
For those eagerly following Good Partner, patience is now required. The drama, starring Jang Nara and Nam Ji Hyun, is taking a three-week break. The hiatus comes as the SBS television channel prioritizes broadcasting the 2024 Paris Olympics, starting July 27. This means the show will not air until August 10, 2024.

This scheduling change was confirmed by Xports News on July 22. Consequently, the sixth episode of Good Partner is now set to premiere on August 16, 2024. This delay is undoubtedly disappointing for fans who have been gripped by the drama’s recent developments.
Rising Popularity and Record Ratings
Good Partner has been a standout in the Korean drama scene since its debut. The drama’s third episode, which aired on July 19, reached new heights with a rating of 10.5%. This marked a significant milestone for the series, which airs every Friday and Saturday.
The drama premiered with a strong rating of 7.8%, quickly climbing to 8.7% in its second episode. These ratings reflect the audience’s growing interest and engagement with the show.
Compelling Storyline
Good Partner revolves around Cha Eun Kyung, portrayed by Jang Nara, a seasoned lawyer with a 17-year tenure at Daejung Law Firm. Eun Kyung specializes in divorce law and finds herself in a personal crisis as she handles a particularly challenging case that threatens her own marriage.
Adding to the drama, Eun Kyung works alongside Han Yu Ri, played by Nam Ji Hyun, a rookie lawyer with a contrasting personality. Yu Ri is intolerant of injustice, whereas Eun Kyung prioritizes the interests of her law firm and clients, even if it means bending the rules. This dynamic often leads to heated disagreements, making the drama even more engaging.
Anticipation Builds for Return
The hiatus might be disappointing, but it also builds anticipation for the drama’s return. Viewers are eager to see how the storyline unfolds, especially with the tension between the lead characters. The break gives fans time to speculate and discuss possible plot twists, keeping the excitement alive.
As we wait for Good Partner to return, it’s clear that the drama has already cemented its place as a must-watch series, captivating audiences with its mix of legal battles and personal drama.
