Good Boy Featuring Park Bo-gum and Kim So-hyun Set to Premiere on May 31
The new K-drama Good Boy is already creating a buzz as it gets ready to hit JTBC screens on May 31, 2025. Packed with action, comedy, and emotional depth, this series brings something fresh to the table: a story about former athletes who swap medals for badges and step into the world of crime fighting.
At the center of it all is Park Bo-gum, who plays Yoon Dong-joo, a former Olympic boxing champ. Once the pride of the nation, Yoon’s life takes a different turn after a series of personal struggles. Now, he’s part of a special police unit that handles serious crimes. The ring may be gone, but his fighting spirit is still very much alive. His journey is all about finding new purpose and adjusting to a world where fists aren’t always the answer.
Kim So-hyun plays Ji Han-na, a former Olympic shooting gold medalist. Calm, sharp, and fiercely determined, she’s left her sports career behind after a painful incident and now wears the police uniform with pride. Her unmatched precision and cool-headedness make her a strong asset to the team, and her chemistry with Bo-gum’s character is something fans are looking forward to.
They’re not alone.
Additionally, the drama features a solid team of ex-athletes now working in law enforcement. Lee Sang-yi joins as a quick-thinking former fencer, Heo Sung-tae as a retired wrestler who now leads the unit, Tae Won-seok as a powerful ex-discus thrower, and Oh Jung-se as a customs officer whose polite exterior might be hiding something deeper. Together, they form a unit that’s as unusual as it is effective. Their different sports backgrounds give them unexpected strengths in the field.
Behind the scenes, Good Boy is in good hands. It’s written by Lee Dae-il, the mind behind Chief of Staff and Life on Mars, and directed by Shim Na-yeon, known for Beyond Evil and The Good Bad Mother. With this duo steering the ship, fans can expect a mix of tension, humor, and human moments that stick.
In addition, the show will air every Saturday and Sunday at 10:30 PM (KST) on JTBC. For viewers outside Korea, it’ll be available on Netflix, Disney+, and Amazon Prime Video, so international fans can keep up with the story as it unfolds.
Nigerian singer BNXN has made a claim online that has generated mixed reactions. The singer stated that living in Lagos is more expensive than living in Los Angeles, drawing from his personal experience in the United States.
Speaking about life abroad, BNXN explained that there are fewer financial obligations and requests for money compared to Nigeria, where people are often expected to support relatives and acquaintances.
“I was telling someone, since I got to the United States, I haven’t seen one egbon adugbo asking me to press money. Lagos is too expensive abeg. Lagos is more expensive than LA (Los Angeles),” BNXN stated.
It can be recalled that the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission (EFCC) has filed charges against Blessing CEO over an alleged ₦13 million fraud case.
The case is reportedly linked to claims that the influencer obtained ₦13 million through an alleged cancer-related fundraising scheme.
It can also be recalled that Blessing CEO previously claimed she was battling Stage 4 breast cancer, a revelation that drew sympathy from many people and reportedly led to financial support from members of the public.
While investigations are still ongoing, the influencer remains innocent until proven guilty by a court of law.
Nigerian fashion designer Veekee James celebrated her 31st birthday and shared pictures on social media with her daughter.
The influencer spoke about how her life has changed and described motherhood as the greatest gift she has received.
“A year older, but the greatest gift isn’t the age… It’s the title I earned this year: MOTHER! This birthday hits differently because my heart now beats outside my body.”
“Before this year, birthdays were about me. Now, they’re a reminder of the little soul who made me a mom and changed my life forever.”
