Damn
I finally got around to watching this series. I taught it was overhyped but i am going to tell you right now, it’s not. It’s not perfect by any means because I noticed some flaws but they are not dealbreaker’s kinda flaws, so overall it was really good. So far nothing has really happened to any of the perpetrators, so am assuming they are leaving it for the part 2.The brutality that was the bullying was beyond my comprehension. I can’t believe that in a whole school and city no single person could do anything about that level of brutality. That some teachers and some students can just brutalize people at will and absolutely nothing is done about it. I have seen this on a couple of Korean series and if this is what is going on in their schools over there without any protection from the authorities, the. I really have no words.
My only complaint is that for someone who has planned so long and hard for this revenge, she should have taking self defense classes and learned how to fight. I don’t discount her trauma at all because what she went through was pretty traumatic but if you are going to say that you are hardened now and are going to exert cruel revenge, you can’t be shuddering, flinching and terrified at the sight or touch of the perpetrators you are going after, it really does defeat the whole badass-ry persona. If the perpetrators can tell that you are still afraid of them, then you are likely not going to strike the kind of fear and terror that you need to when you face off with them.
I don’t know if that’s what they writers and directors were going for but I would have preferred she was mentally and physically stronger and they were all super terrified of her but it’s still a pretty good revenge drama. I have enjoyed this first part but I sincerely hope to see some severe damage being done to this arrogant vicious bullies in the part 2.

Twisted. Perverse. Perfection.
Some of these scenes were so hard to watch, but I can't remember ever being this invested in a show before. I need part 2 now, not next month.The darkness in this series & the way the darkness in these people wrap around one another, tying them infinitely together, is so sinister. Some are tied together by the darkness of evil, others by the darkness of justice.
I wish I was the kind of person capable of breaking down characters, plots, concepts, & psychology intelligently, so I could explain exactly what this show is & what it does to my heart & mind.

The Glory: A Brutal Ballet of Revenge
The Glory, a highly anticipated Korean drama, takes viewers on a dark and intense journey of vengeance. While the premise and execution are undoubtedly captivating, the show doesn't shy away from its brutal and morally complex themes.A Gripping Narrative, But Not for the Faint of Heart: This drama dives headfirst into the psychological depths of its characters, particularly Moon Dong-eun, the protagonist consumed by a relentless desire for revenge against her past tormentors. The narrative unfolds like a well-orchestrated chess game, showcasing Dong-eun's meticulous planning and manipulation. However, the show's graphic portrayal of violence and the exploration of sensitive topics like bullying and trauma might not be suitable for all viewers.
Stellar Performances Carry the Weight: Song Hye-kyo delivers a powerful performance as Dong-eun, embodying the character's steely resolve and simmering rage with remarkable nuance. The supporting cast, including Lee Do-hyun and Lim Ji-yeon, also excel in their respective roles, adding depth and complexity to the narrative.
Morality and Consequences Remain Unclear: While the thrill of watching Dong-eun orchestrate her plans is undeniable, the show leaves audiences grappling with the ethical implications of her actions. The lines between victim and perpetrator blur as the narrative progresses, prompting viewers to question the true cost of revenge and the possibility of finding closure.
A Must-Watch for Fans of the Genre: Despite its heavy themes, The Glory is a compelling drama that will keep you hooked. Its raw portrayal of human emotions, combined with the intricate plot and exceptional performances, makes it a must-watch for fans of the revenge thriller genre. However, be prepared for a dark and thought-provoking exploration of human nature, where easy answers are scarce.

Is this worth the hype? I say YES!
'The Glory' has been sitting on my to-watch list since it was announced and the synopsis wasn't too clear to me. There were only hate comments and trolls commenting on yet another age-gap drama that Song Hye Kyo was going to star in. That too a Kim Eun Sook drama! I'm so glad this drama is so good that it rocked everyone's socks off and no one will talk crap anymore because this is the type of drama that leaves one speechless.PLOT (+trigger warning: bullying):
I thought this drama would be filled with bullying scenes but thankfully majority were restricted to ep 1 with snippets every other episode. I know how brutal bullying can get in Korean dramas / films and don't always have the stomach for it. But since I heard the incident in this was based on a real-life victim, I decided to sit through it. I must say nothing felt forced or exaggerated. It was very realistic and the writers have done an amazing job of building up the story and the characters.
ACTING:
I must say this is the best stuff I have seen from Song Hye Kyo. This is a nice, mature role she chose and seems to be more challenging than some of her previous works. I am not very familiar with the supporting cast but so far all of them have entertained me with their acting - especially the crazy bully adults.
OVERALL:
Since we are just 8 episodes in, I am invested but also doubtful of how this drama will pan for rest of the series / Season 2. My experience with Korean dramas has always been great build ups leading to unsatisfying endings (Penthouse & Reborn Rich - I'm looking at you). I hope justice prevails and the main protagonist gets her revenge and happy ending. It would be unfair to let the bullies get away.
If you're looking for an intense, gripping watch then look no further.

Emotionally Intriguing
I binged this in one day, it was that good. story about a real life bullying event and just thinking about how this happened to someone is actually so insane.Song Hye Kyo's character grows up to masterfully craft a foolproof revenge plot for her bullies and its so satisfying getting the justice she deserves, especially when she took it into her own hands to get that revenge.
Another thing is the chemistry between her character and all the others that she ropes into her plan because they want her to see her enact the revenge she deserves. goose bumpingly satisfying.
The actors and actresses who play the antagonists are so good you can't help but hate them.
I can't wait to see how part 2 plays out.

Glorious
I loved this series from start to finish. Good vs. evil is a universal theme and it was delicious just waiting for these horrible people to meet their karmic ends.I typically dislike Song Hye-kyo‘s fish mouth acting but I have to give it to her in this role. She was excellent. It’s a shame they kept making her pretty by covering her scar makeup and she lost a considerable amount of weight for the role which spoke to her commitment.
My favourite was Lim Ji-yeon as Park Yeon-jin. In every scene she was so over the top mesmerizing. I just hated her so much. Actors that can make me scream at my television get a special kudos. I also loved the complexity of Kang Hyeon-name’s character as an abused domestic worker. Perfectly portrayed by Yeom Hye-ran. Her cute smiles and laughs. The violence was so hard to watch, but I think the director didn’t trivialize it or simply it.
The weakest part of the series was the love story between Moon Dong-eun and Joo Yeo-jeong. It would have been a plausible platonic relationship. With both their psychological challenges it would make sense. . Screenwriter Kim Eun-sook wrote Guardian: The Lonely and Great God so there seems to always be some expectation of romance in her dramas.
Overall the series was close to perfection.

PERFECT! Just perfection.
Please do season 3. Can't get enough.I think the world needs something like this drama, as 85% of people experience b*llying, physically, mentally, emotionally etc.
The writer/writers are excellent. Everything , the acting, direction, music etc in this drama is excellent. This is one drama I wanted to have more episodes.
The world needed something like this, as the b*llying is more emphasized now due to the internet, social media, tv etc. Love, love, love the way the writers did the script.

I was looking for a bubbly drama but my instincts said otherwise
I'm not really a fan of Song Hye Kyo and even after this drama, I'm still not a fan. But there's no denying that she did such an amazing job portraying her character in this drama (kudos to Jung Si So as well)On the other hand, I'm a fan of Lee Do Hyun -- and what a versatile actor this guy is!
Now on the drama:
This is a great drama that I actually just watched because of its ratings and because of curiosity about why it was trending on Netflix. Words that could describe the Glory: dark, gripping, and unpredictable. It seems like the plot, events, basically, everything was planned meticulously by the writers and directors. I like revenge dramas like this when the main character just plans everything so perfectly. What's so good about this drama is how they reveal each plan subtly but still impactfully. All I'm waiting for now is a big f*ck up since in my opinion, it would make no sense if nothing gets ruined on the side of the main character. This drama needs to just at least continue its pace and trajectory it is holding to overall become an excellent drama. They have to do a really bad job in the second season to turn this drama into something not particularly good.
Overall, The Glory Season 1 is an incredible drama despite being a build-up season.
