The rumor immediately caused concern among fans of the show, who were hoping to see the original cast reunited for the second season. Social media was abuzz with disappointment. Viewers began to speculate about how the story might continue without Han Yoo Ri, Nam Ji Hyun’s widely praised character.

While no official decision has been reached, the confirmation that discussions are ongoing has left the door open for Nam Ji Hyun’s possible return. The agency’s careful wording suggests that there is still active communication with the production team.
For fans, this means that all hope is not lost. Nam Ji Hyun has not exited the show, at least not yet. Many are holding out for a positive update in the coming weeks as casting decisions for Good Partner 2 are finalized.
Revisiting Good Partner
Crafted by a real-life divorce attorney, Good Partner is an SBS legal drama. The story centers around two contrasting characters. Cha Eun Kyung (Jang Na Ra) is a seasoned and high-profile divorce lawyer who views her work as more than just a profession. For her, advocating for clients through painful marital disputes is a true calling.
In contrast, Nam Ji Hyun plays Han Yoo Ri, a newly licensed attorney. She finds herself navigating the emotionally charged world of divorce law for the first time, all while dealing with her own personal struggles. The show’s first season struck a balance between hard-hitting legal cases and heartfelt personal stories. Much of its impact was attributed to the powerful performances from its lead actors.
