SBS’s Good Partner is dominating the ratings with its latest episode.

In the August 23 episode of the Friday-Saturday drama, the intense custody battle between Cha Eun-kyung (Jang Nara) and Kim Ji-sang (Ji Seong Hyeon) took a dramatic turn. The show scored a viewership rating of 15.3% in the metropolitan area and 14.6% nationwide, with a peak rating of 18.8%, according to Nielsen Korea.

This makes it the highest-rated program in its time slot and for the entire week. The 2049 rating, a measure of viewership among adults aged 20-49, stood at 4.7%, showing strong engagement.

In the episode, tensions rise as Cha Eun Kyung learns about the emotional scars of her daughter, Kim Jae-hee (Yuna), and the pregnancy news of Choi Sara (Han Jae Hee). Kim Ji Sang's attempts to undermine Cha Eun-kyung during the custody battle add to the drama. The plot thickens when Choi Sara reveals an ultrasound photo, asking Kim Ji-sang to convince Jae-hee to live with her despite Jae-hee’s loyalty to her mother.

The episode also features a home environment investigation, where the shocking revelation that Jae-hee knew about her father’s affair and Choi Sara’s pregnancy before her mother did adds emotional depth. This, combined with a touching storyline involving Park Ji-hwan (Choi Deok Moon) and his non-biological son, highlights the drama’s powerful narrative.

As the episode ends with a heated confrontation between Cha Eun-kyung and Choi Sara, viewers are left eagerly anticipating the next installment. The upcoming episode airs on August 24 at 10 PM.

BLACKPINK’s Jisoo shared a surprising story from her trainee days!

On January 29, the latest episode of Dex’s Fridge Interview was released on YouTube. During the chat, Dex asked Jisoo if she ever rebelled or broke the rules as a trainee. She confidently replied, “Not at all. The only rebellion I had as a trainee was eating.”

Dex then jokingly imitated her younger self, saying, “I’m perfect, so why are they telling me not to eat? I’m going to eat tteokbokki!”

Jisoo laughed and admitted, “Actually, I was really chubby back then. They kept telling me to lose weight, but I always said, ‘No, I need to eat. I like myself chubby.’”

She even recalled a moment with YG Entertainment’s founder, Yang Hyun Suk:
“The boss told me to lose weight, and I responded like that. He just walked away, thinking, ‘She’s a weird one.’ I literally said, ‘No! I like myself chubby!’”

Jisoo then revealed that after she debuted, she naturally lost weight. She added, “Later, after I debuted and naturally lost weight, he was like, ‘You didn’t lose weight when I told you to, but now that you debuted, you did.’”

Fans are loving Jisoo’s confidence and honesty! Meanwhile, her full interview on Dex’s Fridge Interview is now available on YouTube.
