Actor Park Bo-gum portrays the life of a national boxing representative. JTBC's new drama 'Good Boy' (written by Lee Dae-il, directed by Shim Na-yeon) released behind-the-scenes still cuts on their official website on the 6th. The photos feature the main character Park Bo-gum (as Yoon Dong-ju).
Park Bo-gum dons the national team uniform and steps into the ring. He engages in a fierce match in the finals, fending off attacks and countering with hooks. His face is marked with bruises.
Eventually, he wins the gold medal and stands at the highest podium. The production team explained, "He transitioned from an Asian champion to a global hero," and added, "The public's cheers continued to pour in."
Park Bo-gum's exceptional passion was evident. He perfectly embodied the physique of a boxing athlete. Rumor has it that his skills are national team level. Viewers have shown their anticipation.
'Good Boy' is a comic action investigation drama. Medalists, specially hired as police officers, fight against a corrupt world, risking their badges instead of medals.
Park Bo-gum transforms into patrol officer 'Yoon Dong-ju' of the Special Crimes Unit. With his innate resilience and fists, he rises to become an Olympic hero. After experiencing setbacks, he starts a new life as a police officer.
An insider commented, "Though he initially freezes in this unfamiliar world, the rampant dishonesty and unfairness awaken his fighter instincts. He throws himself into the fight for justice."
Park Bo-gum pairs up with Kim So-hyun (as Ji Han-na). Ji Han-na is also a famous Olympic shooting medalist. Other cast members include Oh Jung-se, Lee Sang-yi, Heo Sung-tae, and Tae Won-seok.
The drama’s production team requested anticipation by stating, "Park Bo-gum and Kim So-hyun will sincerely bring to life the stories of heroes fighting against injustice."
'Good Boy' is directed by PD Shim Na-yeon, known for 'The Good Bad Mother', 'Beyond Evil', and 'At Eighteen'. The script is penned by writer Lee Dae-il, known for 'Chief of Staff', 'Life on Mars', and 'Let's Fight, Ghost.'
Meanwhile, 'Good Boy' is scheduled to air in the second half of this year.
