Park Bo-gum is a ‘one-man show’.

In JTBC Saturday-Sunday drama ‘Good Boy’ (directed by Shim Na-yeon, written by Lee Dae-il), Yun Dong-ju(played by Park Bo-gum)runs bare-handed to destroy injustice.’Crazy eyes that turn around’ and ‘the instinct to go straight ahead that the body reacts first’ provide thrilling pleasure as the episodes go on.Accordingly, the production team has summarized three moments of Yun Dong-ju’s realization of justice.

● True education from a former national team member

According to the production team, Yoon Dong-ju proved his authority as a ‘former national boxing team member’ by single-handedly defeating the largest criminal organization in Inseong City, the Golden Rabbit Gang, from the first episode.It was a moment that reawakened his heart that was still hot and about to burst, as he had left behind the glory of the national team member who had received everyone’s cheers and was living a miserable present as a special recruited police officer.As the name suggests, “May you look up to the sky without any shame,” the true education of the former national team member in the face of injustice brought shivers as if watching an exciting match.Above all, the bare-handed action where he repeatedly gets hit and falls down but instead runs forward with a smile caught the eye.


● Injustice is pursued to the end

Yun Dong-ju, who chases injustice to the end, is crazy about justice.With his ‘self-proclaimed eyesight 2.0’, he noticed that the hit-and-run driver’s car was identical to the one on the list of smuggled goods of Geumtoki(played by Kang Gil-woo), and that the gold watch he was wearing was the same as that of the hit-and-run driver, and he immediately saw through the connection between the two.However, an absurd incident occurred where his beloved boxing junior Lee Gyeong-il(played by Lee Jung-ha)was falsely accused of the hit-and-run and confessed.Yun Dong-ju, who was boiling with anger, started to pursue the hit-and-run driver.And he doggedly pursued the gold watch he had seen briefly at a funeral, leading to a rapid development in which he approached the true villain Min Ju-yeong(played by Oh Jung-se)in just two episodes.It was the moment when his speed, piecing together fragmentary evidence like a puzzle and narrowing down his target faster than anyone else, raised the tension of the play to its peak.



● A refreshing straight forward path to evil that crosses the line

Above all, Yun Dong-ju responded to evil that crossed the line with justice that soared above it.At a dangerous moment when Min Ju-yeong’s car, which was running away, crashed into a children’s protection zone and Ji Han-na(played by Kim So-hyun)blocked its way, Yun Dong-ju, who was chasing him and running over the top of a building, threw himself into the air without a moment’s hesitation.The windshield of the car shattered into pieces, and a hot punch landed on the evil that had been mocking the powerless law.The strategy of legendary boxer Muhammad Ali, “To catch a bastard, you have to fly like a butterfly and sting like a bee,” was implemented in real action, and it was Yun Dong-ju’s true education, and his instinct that did not hesitate in the face of injustice.He burst into laughter like a madman even while bleeding, shouting, “Why can’t you get on a plane today? I won’t make a deal.” Even Min Ju-yeong, who thought of a dangerous element as something to be eliminated without raising his voice, was taken aback by that mad confidence.It was an ending where the endless sense of justice of the character Yun Dong-ju exploded.

‘Good Boy’ airs every Saturday at 10:40 PM and Sunday at 10:30 PM.
