La gloria

It's a very particular revenge story different from any other one in the market present. Directing, script and casting are all GOOD. Love the the storytelling and Kyo's facial expressions and the atmosphere she exudes especially. The relationship between every characters are interesting to watch and won't feel dull, among which, the chemistry between DongEun and the maid I like the most, like a dim light in the dark night. Humanity warmth and thoughtfulness inadvertently and naturally reveal when DongEun and the maid meet. The Glory is all in cool tone, black, blue, purple, even red is in blue tone, which I really love. And OST cannot be not mentioned. Not only the songs but also the background music are very compatible and appropriate for the story and atmosphere.

This show... can i just say it is such a visceral feast, i don't think i have seen wounds and blood effects look this good?? The story is very engaging with great pacing and a lead that is instantly easy to get behind. Yeon Jin as an antagonist is equally, SO HATEABLE! I enjoyed my time with this very much, it was consistently good with a few standout episodes. Bullying and school violence is a subject that needs to be explored more within media. Also the lighting in this show is insane, casually better looking than any MCU modern project. K dramas take their time and don't hold back on the story they want to tell. Would have liked to see Moon delve into the consequences of her seeking revenge more but the show handles the grey morality of these characters very well and it is a very satisfying experience.

Revenge has never been so sweet. It's refreshing and everyone are such great actors. The plot has you at the edge of your seat, wondering how to puzzle pieces will fit together. Its dark but not too dark and has some dark humor as well. I am looking forward to part 2. The characters are complex and interesting. The main character is broken and battered. And and the revenge plot is complex and intricate and don't expect a resolution in 8 episodes. The music the camera angles are just right and makes for very entertaining tv. I definitely recommend watching this show and you will not be disappointed.

A fascinating watch thanks to the solid script, dynamic directing, and stellar acting. Every single one of the cast members gave their utmost performance, making each episode feel intense and mind-blowing in the right balance. My respect for Kim Eun-sook, she didn't shy away from antagonizing the main characters because truly, you reap what you sow. The only thing I wish they'd done differently was to cast someone older for Joo Yeo-jung for a more balanced pairing with Song Hye-kyo, because let's be real; she had more solid chemistry with Jung Sung-il as Ha Do-yeong than with Lee Do-hyun. Overall, a highly recommended drama. Pinnacle of revenge.

You think Penthouse: War In Life (2020) or The World Of The Married (2020) was brutal enough?! Well, then you'll have to see this one. First 30 minutes of 1st episode was really hard to watch, not because it's bad, but because it's so good potraying how brutal high school bullies can be.

And forget Song Hye Kyo as a "South Korean Melodrama Queen". Here she's poignant and dark due to her character's constant bullying in high school. You'll only see her smile after 20 minutes into the 2nd episode and laugh after mid 5th episode. Yeah, that's how bleak The Glory is.

And season finale, 8th episode was a cliffhanger. Season 2 will be aired on March 2023. I can't wait to see how glorious Dong Eun revenge would be!

Must See 9/10.
