A new special teaser for Good Partner 2 just showed the new partner dynamic. The video introduces Kim Hye Yoon as the confident new lawyer standing opposite Jang Nara‘s star attorney Cha Eun Kyung. The teaser first aired at the 2025 SBS Drama Awards on December 31. It gives the first look at the changed story and the fresh clash between the two lead actresses.
In the quick teaser, Jang Naraโs character Cha Eun Kyung is back. She left her old firm to start her own practice named “Spring Again”. As sharp as ever, she tells someone, โJust trust me.โ Right after, Kim Hye Yoonโs new character appears. She counters with her own bold line, โNo, trust me!โ. This short exchange sets up a partnership built on strong wills and a possible rivalry.
New Teaser Reveals Fresh Start and New Conflict
The teaser confirms major changes for the returning characters. Cha Eun Kyung is no longer at the large Daejung Law Firm. She has started her own divorce law office. The name “Spring Again” reflects her goal to help clients find new hope and warmth quickly. This shows her character is moving forward after the events of Season 1.
Kim Hye Yoonโs entrance is the main focus of the new footage. Her immediate and confident reply to Cha Eun Kyungโs statement shows she will not be a passive rookie. While her character’s name and exact role are still unknown, her attitude suggests she will be a strong force. The production notes describe the two as being bound by an “inescapable and complicated connection”. They will have to work together to face unavoidable challenges.
