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.
