Yoon Dong-ju (Park Bo-gum) runs with his bare body to break down injustice in JTBC's Saturday-Sunday drama "Good Boy" (played by Lee Dae-il, directed by Shim Na-yeon). 'Going crazy eyes' and 'Straight Instincts for the body to react first' become thicker and more thrilling as the episode goes on.
From the first inning, Yun Dong-ju proved the dignity of the former boxing national team by overpowering the largest criminal organization in Inseong City with a single body of blood. It was a moment when he, who was spending his humble present as a police officer from a special house, left behind the glory of the national team, which received cheers from everyone, awakened his heart, which was still hot and bursting. The physical education of the former national team, which summoned 'Born character' in front of fire as the meaning of the name 'Look up to heaven' made me shudder as if I was watching a thrilling game. In particular, the bare-bodied action, which repeatedly hits and falls, but rather runs with a smile, properly imprinted Yoon Dong-ju's charm of 'Jeong Eui-kwang (狂)' beyond mere heroes.
The second point that surprised viewers was Yun Dong-ju's crazy eyes and tracking instinct to pursue injustice until the end. With an eye-catching vision of 2.0, he discovered that the hit-and-runner's vehicle was the same as that on the gold rabbit's list of contraband, and that the gold watch he was wearing was the same as that of the hit-and-runner, and he instantly penetrated the connection between the two. However, there was a ridiculous incident in which Lee Kyung-il (Lee Jung-ha), a dear boxing junior, confessed after being accused of a hit-and-run. As a result, Yun Dong-ju, who boiled properly to the end of his head, fiercely pursued the hit-and-run criminal. In addition, he persistently followed the gold watch he saw at the funeral hall, leading the rapid development of approaching the real villain Min Ju-young (Oh Jung-se) in just two times. It was a moment when his run, which narrowed down the target faster than anyone else by weaving pieces of fragmentary evidence together, raised the tension of the play to its maximum.
Above all, Yun Dong-ju responded to evil that crossed good with justice that rose above it. At a precarious moment when Min Ju-young's fleeing vehicle rushed toward the children's protection area and Ji Han-na (Kim So-hyun) blocked it, Yun Dong-ju, who was running over the building after him, threw himself into the air without hesitation. The windshield of the car was shattered, and a hot shot stuck over the evil that was laughing at the helpless law. Legendary boxer Muhammad Ali's strategy of "Flying like a butterfly to catch him, shooting like a bee" was Yun Dong-ju's participation education, which was implemented as a real action, and an instinct without hesitation in the face of fire. While bleeding, he burst out laughing like a madman, saying, `You can't fly today, why? I'm not going to agree." Even Min Ju-young, who did not raise his voice once and calmly removed it when he thought it was a risk factor, embarrassed him. It was a properly crazy ending where the endless sense of justice of the character Yun Dong-ju exploded.
