The show will be a blend of comedy, action, crime investigation, and romance as it tells the story of former medal-winning athletes who become police officers and fight criminals. They form a ragtag team determined to take down the forces behind a large crime group. The show will feature Park Bo-gum, who is enjoying the success of When Life Gives You Tangerines, as he transforms into a lovable character, Yun Dong-ju. The audience will see Dong-ju get involved in fistfights during his school years. Later, he learns professional boxing and goes on to win a gold medal.

Spice Up Our Love and No Gain No Love star Lee Sang-yi plays silver medalist Kim Jong-hyeon in the show.

Heo Sung-tae, known for his roles in Squid Game and Decoy, plays team leader Ko Man-sik. Finally, actor Tae Won-seok portrays the gentle giant Shin Jae-hong. Good Boy is written by Lee Dae-il, who previously penned Life on Mars and Bring It On, Ghost. The series will launch on Prime Video on May 31, with weekly episodes streaming on Saturday and Sunday.
