Appearing in the episode of 10 May of the Yoo Jae-Subbe “Pingyego” Yoo Variety show, Park Bo-Gum took the opportunity to reflect both on “When life gives you Tankerines” and promotes his next JTBC “Good Boy” drama.
Global popularity and sincere gratitude
Greeting warmly by Yoo Jae-Suk, who jokingly referred to the name of the character of Park Bo-Gum Yang Gwan-Sik of “When Life DÃ Glask”, the actor expressed his gratitude for the international reception of the show.
“I am incredibly happy at the moment. I seem to have left the atmosphere and entered the stratosphere”, Park Bo-Gum shared with a smile, describing his emotional state following the unexpected global popularity of the show.
The series, previewed on Netflix at the beginning of this year, has developed a strong international fan base, further consolidating the global Appeal of Park Bo-Gum.
Small gestures, great impact
In line with his weighted reflection, Park Bo-Gum brought steam sandwiches to the set like a playful nod to his co-protagonist Kim so-hyun. In “Good Boy”, his character affectionately nicknames his character “Ho-Bang”. The gesture added a carefree moment to the program and underlined the warm Park personality.
Yoo Jae-Suk and Ji Suk-Jin both praised Park Bo-Gum’s genuine nature. Yoo Jae-Suk noted, “Bo-Gum is someone who is never a dirty word that is constantly sincere and kind.”
Next Project: “Good Boy”
The next adventure of Park Bo-Gum, JTBC’s “Good Boy”, is a youthful comedy of action that follows the Olympic medals that join the police for a special recruitment program. Together, they face social injustices and challenge systemic corruption.
By interpreting alongside Kim So-Hyun and Lee Sang-Yi, Park Bo-Gum will return to television in a role that balances comic charm with emotional resonance. “Good Boy” is scheduled for the first time on May 31 at 22:40 KST.
With “When life gives Tangerines” who earns international applause and the “good boy” ready for domestic success, Park Bo-gum continues to establish himself as one of the most versatile and respected actors of Korea. His balance of humility and talent resonates with the public on all platforms, both in Korea and abroad.
