• "Good Partner" Nam Ji Hyun made a Shocking Revelation: " I Clashed a Lot with Jang Nara at First But..."

    Actors Jang Nara and Nam Ji Hyun share their experiences working together in the legal drama 'Good Partner.'

    On the 10th, the production presentation for SBS's Friday-Saturday drama 'Good Partner' took place at SBS in Seoul. Director Kim Garam, along with Jang Nara, Nam Ji Hyun, Kim Joon Han, and Pyo Jihoon (P.O), attended the event.

    Nam Ji Hyun shared her thoughts, saying, "Filming was a lot of fun for me. Eun-kyung is a seasoned lawyer, and I play a rookie, so we often see cases from different angles. Sometimes, what seemed wrong initially turned out to be right. We clashed a lot at first but gradually found a common ground."

    Reflecting on the theme of the drama, she added, "I realized that divorce isn't straightforward. It's deeply personal, and I came to understand that living together isn't simple either. I believe viewers will experience a range of emotions watching 'Good Partner.'"

    'Good Partner' is a human legal drama depicting the intense dynamics between star lawyer Cha Eun-kyung (Jang Nara), who sees divorce as her mission, and rookie lawyer Han Yoori (Nam Ji Hyun), who faces divorce cases for the first time. The series realistically portrays the lives of those navigating through divorce.

    Jang Nara portrays Cha Eun-kyung, a direct and efficient veteran lawyer. Nam Ji Hyun plays Han Yoori, a passionate rookie lawyer with a strong sense of justice. Kim Joon Han appears as Jung Woo-jin, Cha Eun-kyung's dependable junior and partner lawyer at Daijeong Law Firm's divorce division. Pyo Jihoon takes on the role of Jeon Eun-ho, an optimistic lawyer advocating for work-life balance.

    'Good Partner' premiered on the 12th at 10 PM, following 'Connection.'

  • Lee Kyung Gyu secretly helped Hong Jin Kyung debut on TV and she didn’t even know for years

    Lee Kyung Gyu's star-making influence goes beyond Kang Ho Dong, as Hong Jin Kyung shares how he helped her kickstart her career.

    On the April 24 episode of KBS 2TV’s Problem Child in House, legendary comedian Lee Kyung Gyu appeared as a guest—and a touching story from the past was revealed.

    Hong Jin Kyung surprised everyone when she said, “He’s the teacher for all of us. Personally, he’s the one who helped me debut.” She even pinned a carnation flower on his chest to show her gratitude.

    Lee Kyung Gyu smiled and said, “I still remember when Hong Jin Kyung walked up the stairs onto the stage for the first time.”

    Hong Jin Kyung then shared her journey to becoming a star. “I joined a supermodel contest, but only the top 3 winners were noticed in broadcasting. I got a special prize, so I had no chance to be on TV."

    She continued, "At first, I was just a backup for a show. But somehow, I became a regular the next week. I never knew why."

    She added, "I thought the PD gave me a shot. But then one day, I randomly met Kyung Gyu sunbae, and he told me it was actually him who recommended me.”

    Kim Sook asked with a smile, “So Kyung Gyu sunbae said nice things about you to the PD?”

    Lee Kyung Gyu playfully replied, “Don’t say it in such a childish way,” making everyone laugh.

    He then explained more seriously, “The show was Scoop TV Entertainment, and I was pretty much the main MC. When Jin Kyung showed up, I saw her determination and passion."

    He added, "While others didn’t seem serious, she really stood out. I told the PD, ‘She seems unique. Why not keep her on the show?’”

    Kim Jong Kook chimed in, “So if the main MC said that, doesn’t that mean you basically got her in?”

    That made Lee Kyung Gyu happy. He grinned and replied, “Exactly! You speak well. Be like him!”

    He added, “After that, Jin Kyung’s career took off. She started doing shows with Lee Young Ja and just kept going.”

    Fans are now calling Lee Kyung Gyu not only a top MC, but also a quiet star-maker behind the scenes!
