Actor Park Bo Gum opened up about his busy days on the filming set of his new JTBC drama, 'Good Boy'.

The actor, featured as the cover model for the October issue of 'Elle' magazine, impressed with a classy, simple look while dressed in 'CELINE'. 

During his interview, Park Bo Gum talked about his character Dong Joo, in the drama 'Good Boy'. Dong Joo is a former Olympic boxer for South Korea who receives special employment as a police officer. "I am living each day diligently just like the active Dong Joo. Every episode features action scenes, so the filming is not easy, but I am considering it a new challenge," the actor relayed. 

Regarding his physical transformation as a former Olympic boxer, Park Bo Gum stated, "To make myself look like an Olympic athlete, I went on a strict diet and increased my muscle mass. At first, it wasn't easy to consume only protein and vegetables, but I'm doing my best in my given situation. I really respect people who maintain their strong muscles through a strict diet and daily training."

Finally, when asked what he thought could be considered a gold medal for actors, Park Bo Gum replied, "I think it would be when people love the production and remember the names of my character."

Meanwhile, Park Bo Gum will be starring alongside Kim So Hyun, Oh Jung Se, Lee Sang Yi, and more in JTBC's 'Good Boy', scheduled to air in November of this year.
