4 Things We Didn't See Coming In Episodes 3-4 Of "Good Partner"

Jul 25, 2024

Things are getting heated in “Good Partner,” and it’s only episode 4. Han Yu Ri (Nam Ji Hyun) was quite literally steps away from quitting Daejeong’s divorce team when she was reluctantly tasked with handling Cha Eun Kyung’s (Jang Nara) sudden divorce case. Eun Kyung’s professional reputation is on the line, the custody of her daughter is at stake, and unexpected allegations against Eun Kyung have been made.

Here are four moments from episodes 3 and 4 that took us by surprise, to say the least. You’ll probably want your popcorn for this.

Warning: Spoilers ahead!

1. Cha Eun Kyung files for divorce

An unanswered question from last week was why Eun Kyung hadn’t done anything about her husband’s affair despite knowing for months. Eun Kyung even knows who it is: her secretary, Choi Sa Ra (Han Jae Yi), whom she has to see every day at the office.

This week, Eun Kyung explains to Yu Ri that she hasn’t done anything about it because she believes she’d lose more from divorce than she’d lose by staying together. Her home and profession are the most important things to her, and a divorce would put those things in jeopardy. So far, unlike Yu Ri, Eun Kyung has always been rational before emotional, so Eun Kyung’s approach makes sense, but ignoring things is easier said than done.

When Yu Ri tips off Eun Kyung that her husband often stays at Sa Ra’s apartment, Eun Kyung follows her husband and Sa Ra. After seeing the two openly spending their day together as a couple, Eun Kyung breaks down and realizes it’s time to fight.

Eun Kyung rushes back to the office and asks Yu Ri to handle her divorce case, which is another surprise, since the two have pretty different outlooks on divorce.

Little does her husband know that she’s been collecting evidence of his affair all along. It’s her job, after all. It looks like an intense battle is coming and maybe even a little sweet revenge.

2. Eun Kyung’s husband is going to fight for custody

If recent episodes have proven anything, it’s that Eun Kyung’s husband Kim Ji Sang (Ji Seung Hyun) can be shameless. Not only does he keep asking Eun Kyung to end their separation quietly with a settlement, but he also expects to get custody of their daughter Kim Jae Hee (Jeon Yuna).

When he tells his attorney this, even Sa Ra is surprised. Based on her reaction, it looks like she doesn’t want to care for Jae Hee with Ji Sang. He argues that Eun Kyung has been neglectful as a mother and that he has raised Jae Hee all alone.

3. Eun Kyung’s husband’s allegation

The latest episode ends on another killer cliffhanger, and it looks like it will play a big role in how Eun Kyung and Ji Sang’s divorce plays out: Eun Kyung’s husband claims she had an affair first with someone in the office. And of course, a classic K-drama case of the worst possible timing happens.

Yu Ri finds out about this allegation right before she walks into Eun Kyung’s office and sees, from her perspective, Eun Kyung apparently having an intimate moment with someone else in the office (someone who is most definitely Attorney Jung Woo Jin (Kim Jun Han)).

Knowing Eun Kyung and how seriously she takes her profession, an affair, let alone one in the office, seems highly unlikely, but the divorce cases so far have shown that spouses in the wrong have no problem lying to avoid being labeled as cheaters. If you were hoping for there to be a romantic future for Eun Kyung and Woo Jin, this definitely complicates things.

4. …and there may be a new couple in the office

Finally, on a lighter note, it looks like there may be something blooming romance-wise between Yu Ri and Jeon Eun Ho (P.O), another attorney who joined the company a few months before Yu Ri. Since Yu Ri joined the company, the two have been food buddies, usually enjoying lunch as well as coffee and after-work dinners together. Despite their opposite personalities, they’ve actually grown close. They often talk about each other’s worries together.

But things took a very unexpected turn between the two this week. After having too much to drink, they end up in a hotel bed together! It isn’t entirely clear what happened, if anything, but the two are now acting awkwardly at the office. It’ll be interesting to see how this plays out.
