Park Bo-gum, who was counter-punched by Oh Jung-se, the biggest villain of ‘Good Boy’, threw a nuclear fist in anger.Tension is rising as to whether he will be able to turn the tables after receiving a counterattack from Oh Jung-se that shocked the living room theater.
In episode 6 of JTBC weekend drama ‘Good Boy’ (directed by Shim Na-yeon, written by Lee Dae-il, produced by SLL, Studio & New, and Drama House Studio)that aired on the 15th, Min Joo-young(Oh Jung-se)revealed his evil power that can take control of Inseong City and even swing it around to the mayor of Inseong.
Also, the identity of the new drug manufacturer, the devil(Lee Ho-jung), was revealed but disappeared without a trace, and the situation was shockingly reversed in an instant when Jeong Mi-ja(Seo Jeong-yeon), who is like the mother of Yun Dong-ju(Park Bo-gum), was attacked by Min Joo-young.
Accordingly, the viewership ratings for the broadcast that day recorded 6.2% nationwide and 5.9% in the metropolitan area, breaking its own highest viewership ratings for two consecutive weeks and continuing its upward trend.(Nielsen Korea, based on paid households)
The Devil(Lee Ho-jung), who was under police protection as the only witness to the Devil, gave a false report to the police in order to deal with a gang distributing fake ‘candy’.The Violent Crimes Special Team and the Gwangsoo Unit believed that Park Bong-pil(Kwon Dong-ho), aka ‘Bong-pil’, who had recently entered Inseong City and expanded his power, was the Devil and set out to arrest him, believing information that he was building a drug factory on a work boat on the sea at Bukgu Port and distributing it from the port.
And after a fierce chase in which Yoon Dong-ju(Park Bo-gum)and Kim Jong-hyun(Lee Sang-yi)jumped into the sea, they succeeded in arresting Park Bong-pil and achieved the feat of securing the largest amount of drug manufacturing raw materials since the founding of the country, smuggled inside Russian-imported pollack.
Team leader Ko Man-sik(Heo Sung-tae)was briefly on high alert as he held a press briefing while being showered with flashbulbs, but then a suspicious connection to the pollack import company TAE Corporation was revealed.Cheongil Shipping, which Min Joo-young had tried to cover up by killing a customs official, went bankrupt on purpose and was acquired by TAE Corporation at a low price.
The place in charge of logistics transportation here is J9 Security Service, run by Min Joo-young’s subordinate, Oh Jong-goo(Jung Man-sik).In addition, the head of TAE Corporation is the son of Inseong Mayor Noh Deok-gyu(Seong Ji-ru), who is close to Police Commissioner General Jo Pan-yeol(Kim Eung-soo).The special team that achieved the best results ended up receiving a reprimand from the commissioner instead of a reward.
However, through the special team’s operation, Min Joo-young found out that Mayor Noh Deok-gyu had embezzled drug ingredients.He violently oppressed Noh Deok-gyu and threatened him, saying, “Have you already forgotten who you owe me(the mayor’s nameplate)? You must not be ignorant of my gratitude.” And that evil anger was directed at Yun Dong-ju.His meaningful eyes, saying, “I will show you how bad a guy I am if you want me to be,” cast a shadow of uneasy darkness.
In the midst of this, Go Man-sik’s daughter, Go Jeong-ah(Choi Myung-bin), who was studying abroad in the Philippines, ran away from home, entered the country secretly, and was caught by teenagers and the police.Go Man-sik, who was worried, sent his daughter to the devil’s safe house under the protection of Gwangsoo-dae.However, Go Jeong-ah, who was watching the devil closely, remembered her true identity.This was because she coincidentally saw her real name, ‘Kim Yeon-ha’, on the airline ticket when they met on the plane.The devil, who decided that he could no longer stay in the safe house, intentionally set a fire and escaped with Go Jeong-ah.
Fortunately, Go Jeong-ah returned safely without any harm, but a suspicious package was delivered to Yoon Dong-ju.It was the gun that Go Man-sik had lost when he was attacked by a stranger.At that time, he received a call from Jeong Mi-ja, the mother of his boxing junior Lee Gyeong-il(Lee Jung-ha), who had died under suspicious circumstances.Yoon Dong-ju sensed something ominous and ran to her noodle shop.There, Jeong Mi-ja, unconscious and covered in blood from a gunshot wound, was being treated by the paramedics.Yoon Dong-ju instinctively knew that it was Min Ju-yeong’s doing when he saw that the cucumber had been left out of the kimbap on the table.This was because he had seen her picking out the cucumber from the side dish when he had visited her while she was eating at the cafeteria the other day.
Jung Mi-ja was more than just a mother to Yoon Dong-ju.She was the one who protected him from his father who was violent to his sick mother when he was young, and the one who cried and comforted him at his mother’s funeral.That was why Yoon Dong-ju gave her a savings account that he had worked hard to save up, and why he took care of her so that she could get back on her feet after her son’s death.However, in that brief moment when he thought he had cornered Min Ju-yeong, he was hit with a counterpunch by her.Yoon Dong-ju threw a nuclear punch at Min Ju-yeong’s face, who smiled as if she found it funny, at the miserable reality that Jung Mi-ja had been attacked instead of him.The ending made him even more eager for the next episode, wondering if Yoon Dong-ju, who had been counterattacked, would be able to turn the tables again.
