Suspicious Partner
수상한 파트너Checked and re-read
A romcom and a serial-killer thriller sharing one show, and the seam is visible in every episode. Ji Chang Wook and Nam Ji Hyun are charming enough that the romance would have carried sixteen hours alone, which makes the murder plot feel like homework whenever it takes over. The per-episode ratings barely move across forty half-hours. It is never bad and never urgent. Watch it for the leads and let the case wash over you.
Noh Ji-Wook is a prosecutor in the Central District Prosecutors’ Office who ends up switching professions to a private attorney. He harbors a trauma stemming from an event in his childhood involving his parents and his first love. Eun Bong-Hee, a Taekwondo athlete in her youth, is a prosecutor trainee who has become a murder suspect. Eun Bong-Hee and Noh Ji-Wook both find themselves being the focus of a killer.
Hooks early Episode 1. The wrongful accusation and the meet-cute happen in the same hour.
