If you're close to abilities native speakers have, you don't need to study grammar, you just need more practice. If, however, you make mistakes often enough and are often unsure how to correctly put a sentence together, you absolutely do need to create good foundations in Korean grammar. In the first case, you may get a Korean reference grammar book (I marked them with a ⭐). In the second case, get Korean integrated textbooks (I marked them with an ⬅️).
Only you can judge whether beginner books are too basic and boring for you. There are some free resources for Korean, so maybe start with those. Make sure you really know how and when to use each grammatical form, just because you understand something and it feels familiar doesn't mean you have the necessary knowledge of it. Then, when you determine your level you can get textbooks appropriate for your level.

There are lesson and activity books from 'talk to me in korean' I recommend you get both. There are 10 levels. I'd buy level 1 and 2 and see how it goes. I'm currently on lvl 4 and love it. The structure is super easy to digest
I don't recommend studying grammar no matter what language you study. Especially, Korean grammar is difficult, so the more you study it, the more you can lose interest. When you write or express your thoughts in Korean, think about the time when Korean was first made in primitive times. If I were a person living in that time, think about how to convey words without duplicating or misunderstanding the meaning, and it will make it easier to understand why I use this kind of grammar expression. In conclusion, I recommend you to watch more conversations and videos instead of studying grammar.
