Park Bo Gum and Kim So Hyun turn into journos for sports drama? Check out Good Boy team's unique approach to promotions
The countdown has officially begun—Good Boy, starring Park Bo Gum, is all set to premiere, and it's already stirring waves of excitement. Touted as one of the most anticipated K-dramas of 2025, this action-comedy series isn't just grabbing attention with teasers and posters. It's now breaking the promotional mold by turning its stars into weather anchors.
Yes, you read that right.
Good Boy's actors Park Bo Gum, Kim So Hyun, and Lee Sang Yi took a detour from the typical press interviews and red carpets. Instead, they suited up in sleek black formals and stepped in front of the camera not as actors, but as weather forecasters.
The trio took over the news studio to deliver the "forecast" in true Good Boy style. They gave the weather report a dramatic twist. Park Bo Gum opened the segment with a prediction that tomorrow's heat would rival the soaring expectations for their show. He also reminded viewers to 'take care of your health'—a smooth sign-off that's both charming and considerate.
Kim So Hyun and Lee Sang Yi followed up with their segments on May 27 at 6:30 PM KST, putting their flair into the forecast. It wasn't an average weather report for sure.
Know The Storyline Of Good Boy
In Good Boy, former Olympic athletes, including Park Bo Gum's Kim So Hyun and Lee Sang Yi, swap medals for badges as they become rookie police officers through a special recruitment program. They may be new to the police force, but thanks to their elite training, they're anything but amateur when it comes to action. The characters try to balance their life and professional workspace.
Think of it as athletes-turned-cops fighting crime with intensity, loyalty, and some serious athletic flair. Alongside them is Kim Jong Hyun (played by Tae Won Suk). From tackling corruption to exposing deception, this squad takes on a world riddled with injustice—and they're doing it with a punch.
With a stellar cast, a bold storyline, and now, a promotional campaign that's as fun as it is clever, Good Boy is already standing out in a crowded drama landscape. Whether you're here for the action, the comedy, or simply Park Bo Gum and Kim So Hyun's weather report charisma, this one's worth watching.

Pankaj Tripathi Calls For Reasonable Work Hours; Anushka Sharma Cheers For Virat Kohli At IPL Final
Last Updated: From Pankaj Tripathi supporting to Deepika Padukone to Anushka Sharma cheering for Viral Kohli, check updates Reports about Deepika Padukone's departure from Sandeep Reddy Vanga's upcoming film Spirit hit the headlines a few weeks ago. Reports claimed that the actress, who recently embraced motherhood, requested to limit her workday to eight hours- a clause that reportedly didn't sit well with the filmmaker. Now, echoing similar sentiments, actor Pankaj Tripathi spoke about the importance of setting boundaries at work and learning to say 'no' politely when those limits are crossed. He called for reasonable work hours, and said that once a commitment is fulfilled, it's okay to stop and not overextend. Anushka Sharma was seen cheering for her husband, Virat Kohli, during the IPL 2025 final match on Tuesday. As the Royal Challengers Bengaluru took to the field, Anushka appeared in high spirits, showing her support for her husband's team from the stands. Several photos of the actress went viral on social media, highlighting her enthusiasm and support for Virat Kohli and RCB. There are many stories about Amitabh Bachchan and Rekha — some on screen, many off it. But few are told as directly and candidly as this one. In a chat with Rediff in 2015, Ranjeet recalled how a personal request from Rekha led to a major casting change in his directorial debut. BTS isn't just another K-pop band– they are a global phenomenon. From starting as underdogs over a decade ago to now being one of the most renowned musicians in the world, the seven members have come a long way. The septet, comprising RM, Jin, J-Hope, Suga, Jimin, V and Jungkook, has broken barriers no one thought was possible for a K-pop group. Actress Addite Malik was visibly emotional while attending the last rites of her friend, actor Vibhu Raghave, in Mumbai on Tuesday afternoon. A heartbreaking video circulating on social media shows Addite crying inconsolably as she paid her respects to Vibhu. Actress Anjali Anand, who was also present at the funeral, was seen consoling Addite. Vibhu's mother was also seen teary-eyed during her son's last rites.

Titleholder Swiatek to face No. 1 Sabalenka in semis after 26th straight win at Roland-Garros
PARIS: Four-time champion Iga Swiatek's 26th successive win at Roland-Garros set up a French Open semifinal clash against top-ranked Aryna Sabalenka on Tuesday. Swiatek defeated Elina Svitolina 6-1, 7-5 to extend her impressive run. The consecutive wins record on the Parisian red clay is Chris Evert's 29. Having been searching for her best form in recent months, Swiatek, who struggled in the previous round, was in total control in the opening set. She was made to work harder by her 13th-seeded Ukrainian rival in the second set, dropping her serve in the fourth game after hitting two straight unforced errors into the net. But Swiatek broke back immediately and took advantage of Svitolina's poor service game to break again with a thunderous forehand return and move up 6-5. Swiatek sealed the win with a final ace. Swiatek dropped outside the top four before the French Open and has not won a title or reached a final since her victory at Roland-Garros last year. Sabalenka wins Sabalenka defeated Zheng Qinwen in straight sets to reach the semifinals for the second time. Chasing her first title at Roland-Garros, Sabalenka overcame a shaky start and windy conditions to prevail 7-6 (3), 6-3 and extend her record against the Olympic champion to 7-1. The score did not fully reflect the closeness of the quarterfinal, though, with so little separating the rivals. But Sabalenka demonstrated why she was No. 1, making the difference on big points, while Zheng struggled with her serve in tense moments. Sabalenka will try to reach her sixth Grand Slam final, and first at Roland-Garros.

G-DRAGON's team denies dating rumours with TWICE's Sana, sparking fan backlash: 'Nobody even thought about it'
BIGBANG's G-DRAGON and TWICE's Sana have recently found themselves at the center of unexpected dating rumours — and fans aren't taking it lightly. The speculation started after a teaser was released for Sana's variety show "Dex and Sana's Fridge Interview", revealing G-DRAGON as an upcoming guest. But what truly stunned fans was not the rumour itself — as such talks keep happening in the K-pop world — but G-DRAGON's agency's decision to issue a clarification — for something many say didn't even exist. Where did the rumour come from? On May 30, a teaser trailer for Fridge Interview was dropped, titled "G-DRAGON Came to Hang Out with Two Girls," showing the Bang Bang Bang singer joining Dex and Sana. The playful title and the rare appearance of G-DRAGON on variety TV led to increased chatter online, though nothing substantial pointed to any romantic involvement. However, things took a strange turn when G-DRAGON's agency released a formal statement denying any dating relationship between him and Sana — a move that left many scratching their heads. Agency denies dating speculation G-DRAGON's team clarified that he agreed to film the show out of friendship with Dex, not because of Sana. They added that Sana's participation was confirmed only a day before the filming, and emphasized that there were no romantic feelings between the two stars. "G-DRAGON filmed Dex and Sana's Fridge Interview on April 14, the day after the final broadcast of MBC's Good Day. On April 22, TWICE performed as a special guest at Coldplay's concert in Korea." G-DRAGON's side denies dating rumors with TWICE's Sana:— 'Hello, this is Galaxy would like to correct the misunderstandings regarding rumors of G-Dragon's romantic relationships that have recently been spreading online.G-Dragon filmed Dex and Sana's Fridge… "The reason he didn't address the dating rumour earlier was because he believed doing so would spoil his surprise appearance on the show." Fans question the need to address the rumour The statement, instead of clarifying things, left fans more confused. Many TWICE fans, known as ONCE, expressed disbelief that the dating rumour was even a thing — and questioned the agency's decision to issue a statement. One wrote, "Like this if you never heard such a thing." like this if you never heard such a thing Another said, "'Arranged the day before that Sana will appear as well'? So we're just lying now? It's literally her show. Extremely unprofessional for his team to change the narrative." 'arranged the day before that Sana will appear as well' so we're just lying now? 😭 it's literally her season of the show and it's extremely unprofessional that his staff is changing the narrative One commented, "STAY AWAY FROM HER!!!! Why does this man always insert himself into women's business? This isn't the first time." (This came as a reference to his still-undeclared dating rumour with BLACKPINK's Jennie.) STAY THE FVKK AWAYYY FROM HER!!!! Why do this man always inserting hiss ass in other women's businesses.. this happens a lot mind you.. it's not the first time Another wrote, "Girl, literally nobody is assuming that." girl literally nobody is assuming that? One added, "Literally nobody thought they were dating lol." Literally nobody thought they were dating lol This fan pointed to the irony: "There were over 9 million views and viral tweets about Kentaro Sakaguchi and Sana looking like a couple — and still no agency statement. But now we get one for a rumour no one even believed? Make it make sense." over 9 million views, 116k likes saying they look like a couple, viral tweets abt them left and right but his company didn't think a statement was necessary. meanwhile that guy had the audacity to drop a statement over a dating rumor he started that no one gaf about to begin with More about TWICE's Sana and G-DRAGON Sana is currently gearing up for TWICE's upcoming comeback with their album This Is For, scheduled for release on July 11, 2025.
