The 50-second teaser opens with a glimpse of each character's glowing athletic past, with Park Bo Gum stepping into the shoes of boxing gold medalist Yoon Dong Joo. Kim So Hyun's Ji Han Na is a shooting gold medalist, whereas Lee Sang Yi's Kim Jong Hyun is a fencing silver medalist, Heo Sung Tae's Go Man Sik is a wrestling bronze medalist, and discus throw bronze medalist Shin Jae Hong is played by Tae Won Suk.

Cut to the next scene, jaws drop as a darker reality hits. We see Yoon Dong Joo restless in a broken-down car, parked in the middle of nowhere. It's heartbreaking to see certain characters, like Kim Jong Hyun, once a sword-wielding legend, now stuck in a desk-chair job, and Shin Jae Hong in a huge police mascot suit. The teaser further shows how these athletes from different sports arenas come together and form a bond after joining the rookie cop program, struggling to adapt to the transition. What forced them into it? Check out the storyline below.
But to bring excitement, thrill, and action into their mundane lives, a shady villainous figure from Inseong City appears, giving them a reason to use their skills once again. This mysterious enemy seems strong and dangerous. However, the five heroes, now known as the 'Goodvengers,' don't back down. The teaser ends with Park Bo Gum's voice saying, 'The round isn't over until we've taken down our opponent.'
When a different mission calls, will our athletes be able to find their true purpose?

Good Boy storyline
Directed by Shim Na Yeon and written by Lee Dae Il, Good Boy revolves around the life of Yoon Dong Joo, who, unlike his name, inspired by the famous poet, lives a life full of fights. Since his school years, he's always been involved in fistfights and later went on to choose boxing as his professional career, ultimately winning an Olympic medal for the country. However, his athletic career shatters into pieces due to an 'unfair expulsion' from the team, forcing him to join the rookie program. Kim So Hyun, who has mastered the art of shooting with her precise aim and dominates world championships, falls from grace after a misunderstanding sabotages her career. The show will also feature a romance storyline between Park Bo Gum and Kim So Hyun's characters. Good Boy also features a secondary storyline of a former Olympic silver medalist fencer who deliberately joins the police force to reunite with his former girlfriend. The skills of former Olympic bronze medalist wrestler Ko Man Sik land him in another leadership role in the cops world and so on. Good Boy is set to premiere on May 31 at 10:40 p.m. KST. For global audience, the series will launch on Prime Video on May 31,

Thug Life on OTT: Will Kamal Haasan and Simbu starrer break its 8-week streaming deal?

Thug Life starring Kamal Haasan and Simbu in the lead roles hit the big screens on June 5, 2025. Ahead of its release, the movie was said to have an 8-week OTT deal, but things may differ now. According to M9 News, the movie might be hitting the streaming service in 4 weeks, as per usual norms. The decision by the OTT giant Netflix is reported to be due to the Mani Ratnam directorial's failure, both commercially and critically. Ahead of its release, Haasan mentioned that the decision to have an 8-week deal for OTT was a 'pragmatic' one, but now it seems fans won't have to wait that long. However, an official confirmation is yet to be made by the makers and the streaming space. Talking about the movie, Thug Life is a gangster actioner featuring Kamal Haasan and Silambarasan TR in the lead roles. The film features the tale of Rangaraaya Sakthivel, an ageing mafia crime boss who adopts a young boy, Amaran, after a shootout in Delhi. Years later, the man raises his foster son as his own, making him a formidable member of the mafia. With circumstances tying his hands, Sakthivel appoints his adopted son to lead the gang, which eventually leads to an animosity between them. As the story progresses, the film develops into a battle of death with father and son going head-to-head until one perishes. Apart from the lead actors, the movie had a large ensemble cast which consisted of Trisha Krishnan, Aishwarya Lekshmi, Abhirami, Ashok Selvan, Joju George, Nassar, Ali Fazal, and more in key roles. The flick, directed by Mani Ratnam, marked the director's reunion with Haasan after 3 decades. With AR Rahman crafting the musical tracks and scores, the movie was received with negative-to-mixed reviews. Moving ahead, Kamal Haasan is next set to appear in the tentatively titled KH237 with AnbArivu duo serving as the directors. On the other hand, STR is speculated to soon join hands with director Vetrimaaran for an action venture. He also has multiple films in the lineup.
