A bit over the top

The Glory is undoubtedly a high-quality production but the plot, while engaging, was too dramatic and unrealistic for my taste. The antagonists are one-dimensional, starting as cruel bullies in their youth and ending up as the most detestable individuals you could imagine as adults. The main character's plan is riddled with unaddressed plot holes, and in the second half, she conveniently receives help from her love interest, a surgeon who (surprise!) shares similar emotional trauma and seeks revenge on someone. Unfortunately, the two actors lack chemistry, leading to their characters romance to fall flat.

Is it a terrible drama? Absolutely not. It's entertaining and explores a few interesting themes. However, it fell short of having an emotional impact on me because I couldn't connect with the characters, and the ending left me unsatisfied.
