The upcoming K-drama Good Boy has unveiled the first stills of Park Bo Gum’s character. This action-packed comic drama centers on a group of Olympic medalists who, struggling with financial difficulties, short career spans, injuries, and other challenges, transition into special police officers. 

They form the Olympic Avengers, leveraging their athletic skills to tackle violent crime. The drama features a stellar cast, including Park Bo Gum, Kim So Hyun, Oh Jung Se, Lee Sang Yi, Heo Sung Tae, and Tae Won Suk.

In the newly released stills, Park Bo Gum transforms into Yoon Dong Joo, South Korea’s national boxer. The images highlight his muscular and tanned physique in a blue uniform. Another shot captures Yoon Dong Joo proudly wearing a gold medal around his neck after winning the men’s middleweight final.

Born with a natural talent for fighting, Yoon Dong Joo rises to become an Olympic hero. However, after an unexpected incident shatters his world, he faces despair and starts over as a police officer. In his new role, he reconnects with his fighting instincts and takes on the challenge of confronting injustice.


Alongside Park Bo Gum, Kim So Hyun will also star in Good Boy as Ji Han Na, an Olympic gold medalist in shooting. Known to the public as a “shooting goddess” for her beauty and skill, she faces a world-shocking incident that leads her to leave the sport and embark on a career as a police officer. While she appears calm and collected, Ji Han Na is refreshingly honest and straightforward in matters of love and work.
