fantastic all round series it had it all!!
I honestly really loved pretty much everything about this series. It was just the right length and it had a bit of everything!So I haven’t actually watched Park Bo Gum before not on purpose. I’ve just never come across their acting in a K drama that I’ve watched.. I can’t lie I was blown away their character Yun Dong Ju was just played so so well it was almost just perfect for them and it’s no surprise that I will be watching more dramas with this actor in!!
Yun Dong Ju and Han Na (played by Kim So Hyun) had such a soft buildup to the relationship you could see there was a past but it wasn’t heavy. It was just really easy-going and lighthearted.
However… there was a semi love triangle sort of thing going on which I think if it wasn’t Kim Jong Hyeon (played by Lee Sang Yi) I don’t know if I could’ve got on board with it as much the fact that they all just worked in the same department or same team it was insane! I also really like Lee Sang Yi so for him not to get the girl in this part was so sad and I think if it wasn’t such a good series and the two main main characters didn’t work so well then I would’ve wanted Han Na and Kim Jong Hyeon to get together!! But I also really loved the bromance between Kim Jong Hyeon and Yun Dong Ju!!
Min Ju Yeong played by Oh Jung Se .. wowwwww what an actor what a character it was just incredible every time you thought you’d figured him out you got a curveball!! I couldn’t quite tell at the end in the prison cell if that person had come in to kill him or if he was killing that person and then putting on the uniform and escaping? I think that character just had so many curve balls I just wasn’t sure if that was the final curveball.???
Another couple that I really wanted to make it to the end was Drugmon and Black Cat Leo?! it tore my heart to pieces when he got shot!! And she gave him her real name like tears!!! My heartttttt Lee Ho Jung and Ko Jun just looked so good together in this series their characters were so perfect for each other and I was really impressed!
Man Sik played by Heo Sung Tae and Jae Hong played by Tae Won Seok were the other two members of the Olympics policing team and I do think without them the team would’ve been severely unbalanced. They just brought the right amount of comedy and softness to the group. Their characters were a bit softer but still lovable.
I did not like when the noodle restaurant owner told Yun Dong Ju to stop coming round like what did he do? I get it but it was so upsetting and then to just to turn around after a near death experiencing go I’m sorry you’re like a son to me. It’s like hello?! he was always there!! Glad for the happy ending but still annoyed hahaha
They were so so many guest rolls and stars in the series that were like in and out it was so incredible just to see them all. I can’t name everybody my reviews already gonna be really long but every single guest role was noted and every guest role was perfect!!
I will say that points when Yun Dong Ju and Han Na were kissing there was no OST ..? it was just the sound of lips kissing and I’ve never heard that before. It was a bit odd for me not here to judge. It was obviously a part of the script but I think I’m just so used to the normal K drama OST kicking in so for me it wasn’t great. However the OST‘s I am obsessed with this series!!
I also liked on the last episode. You got a look into the behind-the-scenes and the outtakes which was really funny!!
I really really did enjoy this drama and I’m so glad I watched it live as well because that just added to the anticipation of when the next episode was gonna come out and I would say if you’re looking for a little bit of closed door romance a lot of action mystery a bit of crime scene murder mystery this is definitely the drama for you!

Is this high budget drama Hit or miss? miss.
Stopped watching after episode 1. Had to skip many parts, personally thought that it was slightly too serious for my likings so I tried finding interesting moments, but really it was a waste of time from start to end. I thought it would be similar to "study group", but all we got is one protagonist and the rest of the actors who get a few camera moments here and there. It definitely had a lot of high expectations not only from the actors but the synopsis of the story as well.Was this review helpful to you?
A Hero Without the Ego — And That’s What Makes “Good Boy” So Refreshing
Good Boy” is a stylish, well-paced production — a true Korean-style blockbuster. The action scenes are well shot, everything looks dynamic and powerful. Definitely a high-level production.And Park Bo-gum’s performance? 🔥💣🥇
He completely transforms into an action hero while keeping that refreshing vibe — smoothly switching between fight scenes, comedy, and romance.
You know what’s new in action dramas like this? The hero doesn’t show off! And that’s seriously refreshing.
His character feels very close to his real-life personality — but at the same time, totally opposite… That contrast makes the role feel alive and fascinating.
Kim So-hyun is also excellent — very convincing. Lee Sang-yi adds a great energy to the team. Overall, the cast is top-tier.
The music is beautiful too — tasteful, polished.
As for the plot, it develops slowly. But it seems like this isn’t a story driven by twists — it’s more about the characters and visual style. A drama that focuses on moments and personality rather than suspense.
Park Bo-gum often chooses projects with heart, even if they’re risky or he’s not the clear solo lead.
Here, I feel like it’s something in between — a mix of commercial solo lead, multistar setup, and that arty touch he truly loves.
I think his screen presence will definitely be strong.

Park Bo Gum shines in this action role!!!
After watching the first four episodes, the versatility that Park Bo Gum has portrayed in his acting is exemplary. I am in awe to see him in this action-packed role in Good Boy with his hardened gaze, unlike the ones filled with his doe-like, love-filled eyes. No doubt he is the prince of romantic dramas, but his performance in this action series is a brilliant display of his talent. The stark contrast that his character, Yoon Dong Ju, conveyed while punching the hell out of the bad guys and the way he is totally whipped for Ji Han Na, is one of the many Maeryok (charming) points of Park Bo Gum in this series.The variety and growth he has shown in his recent drama picks like When Life gives you tangerines and Good Boy, have filled my heart with immense satisfaction and pride. I remember in Record of Youth, one of his previous dramas, particularly at the ending of episode 4, a scene of him as a villain and beating up the guys. I was amazed to see the change in his expression (from all smiles to badass villain) and the way he handled that scene was flawless and very impactful. I wanted to see him more in such a character (something intense and fierce). This series actually fulfills it and even exceeds it. I hope the story line remains as strong as it is now. I loved the other characters too. However, this review is only for Park Bo Gum. Couldn’t resist writing it!

Action scenes with awesome soundtrack.
Ep. 1 takes quite a while to talk about all the main cast members but ultimately, the whole story comes together. Ending with an intense fight scene involving all the characters. Ep. 2 I laughed too much and overlooked the investigation and it ended. I need to go back and watch it again. the ending of episode 2 is also exciting.Was this review helpful to you?

Um dos Melhores doramas da atualidade
Gente, que dorama foi esse? Sério, não tenho palavras suficientes pra expressar o quanto AMEI essa história do início ao fim.Foi tudo no ponto certo: ação, drama, emoção, romance, amizade, tensão e cenas de tirar o fôlego. Um combo de cenas incríveis, atuações potentes e uma OST perfeita que elevou tudo ainda mais.
Park Bo Gum entregou TUDO! Um dos personagens mais intensos que ele já fez. A profundidade emocional, a luta interna, o olhar carregado de dor… foi simplesmente impecável. A atuação dele é de um nível absurdo, completamente fora da curva!
Mas não posso deixar de falar do Kim Jong Hyeong, porque meu Deus… que presença em cena! As cenas de luta dele foram de arrepiar, misericórdia, cada sequência era melhor que a anterior!
E a amizade dele com o Dom Ju foi um dos pontos altos do dorama. A conexão, a lealdade, o companheirismo… dá gosto de ver! Me emocionei real com esses dois.
E agora… Han Na no episódio 13 e 14, pelo amor de Deus! QUE CENA!
A mulher foi simplesmente GIGANTE! Que entrega, que coragem, que cena eletrizante. Defendendo o parceiro como ninguém. Eu fiquei arrepiada, tensa, emocionada e até voltei pra rever porque foi forte demais!
Todos os episódios mantiveram a qualidade, não teve momento fraco.
A história cresceu, evoluiu e entregou um final gigante, daqueles que marcam mesmo. Fez jus a tudo que foi construído até ali. Fechou com chave de ouro!
E a trilha sonora? PERFEITA. Casou com cada momento, cada emoção, cada luta, cada silêncio. A OST foi um personagem à parte, que deu ainda mais peso e beleza à trama.
Good Boy não é só mais um dorama de ação.
É um dorama com alma, com coração, com dor e com verdade.
Um dos melhores que já assisti — e vai ficar comigo por muito tempo.
Recomendo com força! 🖤🔥👏

É um bom dorama, mas não sei se funciona pra todo mundo.
É um dorama que entrega atuações incríveis e trabalha muito bem a ação e humor na sua história. Porém a história se torna maçante, você se cansa de ver todo episódio o vilão escapando e se dando bem e ainda quando ele tava na mira pra ser pego, sendo acobertado por todo mundo. Esse é um dos pontos que pesa quando o dorama é lançado semanalmente, o público tem que realmente querer terminar pois são episódios longos mas vale a pena pela atuação e construção dos personagens.Acredito que um dos pontos alto é a amizade do Dong Joo e do Jong Hyeong, algo que saiu de uma disputa pela Ha-na se tornou uma parceria leal.
Em relação a Ha-na acho injusto quem disse que ela não entregava nada, principalmente nas cenas de romance com o Dong Joo, achei que os dois tiveram sim uma baita química e ela entregou muito, principalmente nas cenas de ações.
E preciso mencionar que as OST desse dorama foram muito boas e encaixaram super bem com as cenas trazendo ainda mais emoção.

Good boy...
✨ Resenha sincerona da Lari: Good Boy ✨Começa com uma ideia tão absurda que a gente engole sem mastigar: uma equipe de policiais formada só por ex-medalhistas olímpicos. Pois é, minha gente. E, claro, cada um carregando um passado mais dolorido que derrota em final por um ponto.
Nosso protagonista Bogum, coitado, já nasceu em dorama: infância triste, cheio de dívidas, mas coração maior que a Olimpíada inteira. A mocinha, ex-atiradora olímpica, vive fugindo da mãe interesseira que queria só explorar a fama dela.
Agora… pausa dramática pro esgrimista chaebol interpretado pelo Lee Sang Yi. Ele tá em seu MELHOR SHAPE, meus amigos. Um verdadeiro esgrimista do meu coração — rico, gostoso e cheio de vontade de botar bandido atrás das grades.
Os outros dois esportistas da equipe são mais família que arroz e feijão juntos, e todos eles se unem pra peitar o crime organizado e correr atrás do vilão (um baita vilão, diga-se). O roteiro gira nesse vai e vem de porrada: tapa, soco, chute, facada, olho roxo… um verdadeiro tiro, porrada e bomba.
Teve mortes ousadas? Teve! Final previsível? Também. Mas eu? Gostei sim, obrigada. As atuações seguraram bem o espetáculo — Bogum foi impecável — embora o plot, depois de um tempo, rodasse num ciclo repetitivo de caçar vilão.
Sofri? Ô se sofri. Sorri? Muito! O policial veterano me fez rir alto várias vezes. Bogum sem camisa? Infelizmente, não. Mas tivemos ele e o Sang Yi de regata (amém 🙏) e, numa cena mostrando as pernas do Bogum, eu soltei um uau sem culpa nenhuma.
⭐ Nota: 9
👀 Veria de novo? Provavelmente não.
🤝 Indicaria? Mas é claro!

Juro que eu queria amar, mas apenas respeitei.
🔚 Resumo da ópera (ou do k-drama): “Um Bom Garoto” é bonito, polido, com brilho nos olhos e um vilão que segura a trama nas costas. Mas se você queria um mergulho fundo, uma história que te suga pra dentro e não te devolve inteira... talvez falte um pouco de maré.⭐ Minha nota dramalhona: 7/10
(bônus de 1 ponto só porque Bo Gum ainda é o Bo Gum...)
Bogummy, meu querido, você se jogou como quem ama... Se entregou ao ringue, tiros, socos e bombas, mas o roteiro? Esse não te segurou pela cintura.
A história… ah, faltou sustança. Não falo de exagero, falo de amarração emocional, de costura fina entre dor, propósito e redenção. Faltou o pulo do gato, ficou só o pulo.
Você suou, chorou, sangrou, mas eu, que amo um dramalhão e rio de bobeiras infantis, que vibro com reviravolta e lágrima honesta, fiquei de fora do nocaute emocional.
O vilão? Esse sim, merece um troféu e uma psicoterapia. Chegou e levou tudo na marra,
sem medo de ser infeliz. Ali, meu coração deu uma balançada.
Faltou o caos necessário pra tocar minha alma. Eu queria soluçar no sofá e mandar mensagem pra terapeuta no meio do episódio. Terminei assim, com gosto de “era só isso?”, meio insossa, querendo amar, mas só respeitando.

Algo diferente
Recomendado si buscan algo más enfocado a la acción, si tiene escenas de romance y escenas graciosas perooo se basa al 80% en acción.......... Cuando recien escuché sobre este kdrama me imaginaba algo diferente en el aspecto que pensé que se resolvían casos diferentes en cada capítulo perooo no, se basa en solo resolver un caso, esto para MI resultó ser algo tedioso, podría decir que algunas escenas eran un poquiiito innecesarias porque se volvían repetitivas, sin embargo no le quita lo interesante a la historia, creo que no hay nada parecido, atletas que se convierten en policías.Tiene muchas escenas de acción super buenas y las escenas de romance son lindas (aunque si me faltó que nos dieran un poco más de todas las parejas y familias que había en general). Buenos personajes, puedes ver el porque son como son mientras más avanza la historia. También quiero mencionar que tienen a un villano bastante bueno, algunos de sus "socios" igual son interesantes.
De las actuaciones no hay quejas, todos lo hicieron muy bien! me alegra que les hayan podido dar un buen final.
Repito que para mí gusto en algunas partes se volvía algo tediosa, por eso le puse 8, perooo vale la pena darle una oportunidad si le gustan los kdramas de acción o si les gusta el actor Park Bo gum 🤓☝🏻

Quand les médaillés reprennent le combat !!!
Alors dès le départ je me suis retrouvée embarquée dans "Goodboy" sans même voir le temps passer ⭐️. L’histoire nous plonge dans l’univers des “médaillés” 🏅, ces athlètes qui, après avoir brillé aux Jeux Olympiques, se retrouvent un peu mis de côté… jusqu’à ce qu’on leur propose de rejoindre une équipe spéciale de lutte contre le crime 👮♂️💪🏻. Le spitch m’a accroché, mais le drama va encore plus loin, entre action, adrénaline, esprit d’équipe et quelques touches d’humour bien placées, j’ai kiffé du début à la fin.Le casting est clairement de haute voltige 👌🏻. Franchement, chaque perso m’a touché avec ses fêlures, ses failles, ses blessures, ce qui fait que je me suis attachée à eux, TOUS sans exception 🫰🏻. Park Bo Gum en Yun Dong Ju, un bijou, sa bromance avec Go Man Sik m’a fait kiffer à fond 🔥. Sa rivalité avec Jong Hyeon ?!? Trop bien amenée 😍. Sa romance avec Han Na ?!? Toute mignonne, pas centrale mais elle donne un petit supplément d’âme 💕. Et puis je vais le redire encore et encore, mais Oh Jung Se est un MONSTRE d’acteur 👑. Peu importe le rôle, il est toujours juste, toujours grandiose, et ce duel avec Dong Ju… un vrai combat de boxe qui a duré bien plus que 12 rounds... 🥊
Un autre gros point fort selon moi, le lien entre chaque personnage et son passé olympique 🤺🤼. Ça apporte une fraîcheur et une profondeur inattendue. Tu sens qu’ils ont tous un poids derrière eux, et ça rend l’équipe encore plus belle à suivre 🫶🏻
Et que dire des combats… mais WOUAH 🤩 !!! C’est explosif, chorégraphié à la perfection, et les OSTs qui accompagnent ça… pwaaaaa 🎶 un feu d’artifice. Dès la première "bataille" de l’épisode 1 avec les effets de peinture, j’étais conquise ☺️. C'était classe, esthétique, intense. À chaque affrontement, j’étais sur le bord de mon siège à attendre le coup suivant 😅
L’histoire ne se limite pas cas de la baston. L’intrigue est prenante, je voulais savoir comment tout aller se dégoupiller. Par contre, pour être 100% honnêtes, j’ai trouvé une petite baisse de régime entre les épisodes 8 et 12... 🥱 On tourne un peu en rond, et j’aurais préféré que ça soit raccourci pour qu’on puisse creuser d’autres arcs. Le procès de Joo Yeong ? Par exemple, j'ai trouvé frustrant qu'ils en parlent pas 😬. L’indic “crâne lisse”, pareil disparu trop vite des radars. Et la fabriqueuse de “candy’s” (dont j’ai oublié le nom 😅)... Oui elle finit en prison, mais elle avait un vrai potentiel… dommage qu’on n’en sache pas plus 🤷🏼♀️
Au final, "Goodboy" reste une claque d’adrénaline, une team incroyable, des combats d’anthologie et une OST qui déchire. J’ai passé un pur bon moment, malgré quelques petits couacs 🔥🥊🤺✌🏻
