The Glory

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.

American TV take note. The Koreans are producing some outstanding films and TV shows and The Glory is a shining example of this.

This is the first Korean TV series my wife has seen and with the last episode still to play out, she is already a fan of them.

The Glory achieves exactly what you want from a TV show like this... something you look forward to watching at the end of a busy day. It's so engaging that we have been watching 2 to 3 episodes each night, with almost no distraction from our mobile/cells phone.

The story its self has several levels to it and goes deeper than what I was expecting... and where I would normally expect a twist (had it been an American series) The Glory show catches me off guard by playing out exactly as it should do.

The sole reason for removing 1 star is it does feel a little drawn out at times, but oddly, it also works as at no time did I feel bored watching it.

As a result The Glory comes Highly Recommended!

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 Korean drama is claimed to be based on a real story. A revenge story against the classmates who bullied her to extreme during high school. A very interesting plot n well executed. Part 2 of 1st season is awaited to release in March -23, excited for the release. Bullying is unfortunately the most underrated n ignored thing but it's real n evil n can create havoc in lives of victims.

My ratings 8/10!

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.
