JTBC has released an extended teaser for its highly anticipated action-comedy drama ‘Good Boy’, giving audiences their first in-depth look at a story packed with adrenaline, heart, and justice.
‘Good Boy’ follows the gripping journey of five once-revered international athletes: Yoon Dong Joo (played by Park Bo Gum), a boxing gold medalist; Ji Han Na (played by Kim So Hyun), a shooting gold medalist; Kim Jong Hyun (played by Lee Sang Yi), a fencing silver medalist; Shin Jae Hong (played by Tae Won Suk), a discus bronze medalist; and Go Man Sik (played by Heo Sung Tae), a wrestling bronze medalist. These athletes exchange their medals for police badges through a special recruitment program. Now, as officers, they must navigate a harsh and unjust reality far removed from their former glory.
In the newly released teaser, viewers are introduced to the five leads, once hailed as national heroes, now struggling to find purpose in their new roles. Their lives take a dramatic turn when they face off against Min Joo Young (played by Oh Jung Se), a ruthless power broker who dominates Inseong City. His chilling presence sets the tone for a high-stakes battle between corruption and justice.
The so-called ‘Goodvengers’ aren’t ones to retreat easily. With the unshakable determination of a true fighter, Yoon Dong Joo declares, “Impossible is nothing,” and warns, “I swear, I’ll put you behind bars! Run all you want—I’ll be right on your heels!!” firmly setting his sights on justice. The teaser ends with a chilling promise: “Once you start, there’s no turning back. It’s time to pull the trigger and break the silence,” signaling an intense, action-packed battle ahead.
According to the production team, “‘Good Boy’ is a story about youth who rise again after defeat. Our ‘Goodvengers’ are ready to throw a satisfying uppercut at dishonesty and foul play. As they break free from their once lackluster lives and start running again, they’ll also ignite a fire in viewers’ hearts. With a full package of comedy, action, and romance, we invite you to enjoy the ride.”
Directed by Shim Na Yeon, winner of the Best TV Drama Award at the 57th Baeksang Arts Awards for her phenomenal creations like ‘Beyond Evil’ and ‘The Host’, and written by Lee Dae Il, known for his remarkable works like ‘Life on Mars’ and ‘Chief of Staff’, ‘Good Boy’ promises a compelling mix of genre storytelling, dynamic action, and emotionally charged performances.
With its powerful teaser already generating buzz, ‘Good Boy’ is poised to deliver a thrilling ride for both domestic and international viewers alike.
The series is set to premiere on Saturday, May 31 at 10:40 PM KST (7:10 PM IST) and will be available globally via Amazon Prime Video.
