[HanCinema's News] Cast and Crew for "Partners for Justice Season 2" Hint at a Possible Third Season

At a press conference for "Partners for Justice Season 2" held on July 8th cast and crew for the drama have suggested that there is strong interest at MBC for a third season and that they are expecting a decision soon. "Invesigation Partners Season 2" was itself teased before the original "Partners for Justice" had finished, lending plausibility to the suggestion.

"Partners for Justice Season 2" has consistently won its timeslot on Monday and Tuesday night. The drama has not been a major hit, but it has posted above average ratings. Because of the high number of low performing dramas as of late, especially on MBC, a new season of "Partners for Justice" is a safer investment than trying something new. Still, director Noh Do-cheol expects that a new season will necessitate double digit ratings - the drama's latest episode was at 8.3%.

Actor Jung Jae-young had a more pessimistic outlook, noting that the actors in the drama were not exactly big stars. He also gave a smile suggesting that he himself could probably be replaced without too much trouble. This, coupled with Noh Do-cheol's comments about how a third season would focus more on Jung Yoo-mi, may be hints of possible casting changes should the third season come to fruition.
