Yun Dong-ju (Park Bo-gum), Ji Han-na (Kim So-hyun), Kim Jong-hyeon (Lee Sang-yi), Ko Man-sik (Heo Sung-tae) and Shin Jae-hong (Tae Won-seok) form a rag-tag team who seek to take down the forces behind a large crime group.

Fresh off the success of When Life Gives You Tangerines, Park Bo-gum transforms into a different but still lovable character, Yun Dong-ju. Named after a noble Korean poet, Dong-ju lives a life contrary to the name given to him, always getting involved in fist fights during his school years. Through his experiences in fighting, Dong-ju learns proper boxing, beginning a successful career as a boxer and ultimately winning a gold medal. Unfortunately, Dong-ju’s glorious moment is shattered by his unfair expulsion from his boxing team. A new beginning starts for Dong-ju when he is able to become a police officer through a special recruitment opportunity. However, his journey as a policeman doesn’t turn out to be as smooth as his career as a boxer. Nevertheless, Dong-ju is absolutely smitten when he stumbles upon the beautiful Ji Han-na through work.
Beloved actress Kim So-hyun channels medalist turned police officer Ji Han-na. Since middle school, Han-na was a shooting prodigy, dominating world championships with her precise aim and was adored by many fans. However, after gaining a bigger fan base, she also drew attention from less well intentioned groups. Criticism poured in and misunderstandings piled up, causing Han-na to gradually shut herself off from the world. These difficulties led to her failing to concentrate at the most crucial moment in her shooting career. Eventually, a stress-induced condition and dizziness forced her to retire from her once promising shooting career. She then applied for special police recruitment, with dreams of becoming a police officer like her father. Han-na is happy to finally be assigned to the special team, despite having the overly enamored Dong-ju and her ex-boyfriend Jong-hyeon as teammates.
Spice Up Our Love and No Gain No Love star Lee Sang-yi portrays silver medalist Kim Jong-hyeon. Formerly a fencer, Jong-hyeon works hard to graduate from the police academy due to his desire to reunite with his former girlfriend, Han-na. Heo Sung-tae, known for his roles in Squid Game and Decoy, is team leader Ko Man-sik. The training from his days as a bronze medalist in wrestling turned into valuable skills as a police officer. Finally, actor Tae Won-seok will portray gentle giant Shin Jae-hong. Despite his initial reluctance to join the special team, it turns out that his past as a bronze medalist in discus throwing becomes a shining asset to the team.
GOOD BOY is directed by Sim Na-yeon, who is known for hit series Beyond Evil and The Good Bad Mother. The series is written by Lee Dae-il, who wrote Life on Mars and Bring It On, Ghost.
Don’t miss out on this exciting series full of comedy and action. Tune in when GOOD BOY launches on Prime Video on May 31, with weekly episodes on Saturday and Sunday.
