Kim Hyun-joo featured on Partner OST

Who knew that Kim Hyun-joo could sing? She’s currently the star of the current KBS drama Partner, and now also makes her singing debut with a track for the series soundtrack titled “Promise” ["약속"].

In the drama, she plays the newest lawyer at a firm who clashes with one of its partners (Lee Dong-wook) when her idealism contrasts with his more realistic (or one might say cynical) approach to law. (Sparks fly and romance develops.)

At a July 8 press conference, Kim expressed her feelings on the experience, saying, “As someone who isn’t a professional singer, I’m very satisfied with it. I even received some praise from the songwriter.”

“Promise” goes live on online music sites on July 10, while the album goes on sale on the 15th. Meanwhile, the drama aired its fifth and sixths episodes this week.

Partner is described as showing a realistic look at the Korean legal system, although the preview stills make it seem as though there’s a strong comic bent. (I suppose we’ll have to wait and see what the tone ends up being, but with the first episode ready to go on June 24, we won’t have long to wait.

Stills from Partner’s courtroom

KBS’s Partner is readying for its premiere next week and, to whet our appetites some more, has released yet more stills from the drama, which feature its stars goofing off together on set.

Following the end of Accidental Couple this week, Partner pairs Kim Hyun-joo with Lee Dong-wook in an opposites-attract story in a high-powered law firm setting. These stills were filmed in the drama’s courtroom set, located in Paju.

Producers boasted pride in the compatibility of their leads, who have been playing well off each other both onscreen and off as they rest between takes: “It’s not just with their acting, but they’re also perfect partners in joking around.”
