The Glory Part 2

Revenge but she kept her hands clean

I really enjoyed the entire show. The writing definitely could've been better. They explain somethings through flashbacks but context is lacking.

Luckily whoever was in casting hit a home run. The acting was a 10. The first half was a slow burn and the second half wasn't much faster. But every single episode the acting was amazing.

I kept thinking to myself where are the police? Why are they only questioning the FL??? Another writing hole.

With how amazing the casting was it could've made the writing look less than. Maybe I'm nitpicking. I still highly recommend if you enjoy a good revenge plot.

Satisfied Revenge

Bullying is something very common nowadays. Many teenagers, kids, even adults face bullying. It has become a trend to bully someone nowadays to look cool. Most K-Dramas that I saw have high school bullying. I don't know if it actually happens in high schools in the country as well. I feel so scared for this generation or the next generation to come that they'll be facing bullying so much. The person who is at fault is mostly the people around who see everything but do nothing & sometimes don't even trust us. We should take a good look at our kids, siblings & friends if they're being bullied or not. If we take one step, we can help them.

I loved part 2 the most. A very satisfying ending of 5. The most satisfying part is when Kang Hyun Nam slapped Park Yeon Jin.

The people who suffered most are Park Yeon Jin & Choi Hye Jeong. They both lost something that was precious to them. Choi Hye Jeong lost her career & her voice. On the other hand, Park Yeon Jin lost everything: her husband, daughter, mother & career. The most satisfying ending of all is Park Yeon Jin's. She was abandoned by everything. That's the most painful punishment, more than death, losing something that you love.

I agree that Moon Dong Eun doesn't have to do much. But the things she did or the way she manipulated their lives were enough for them to ruin themselves. They were never true friends to begin with. That was the biggest reason why it was so easy to incite them against each other. In the end, they destroy each other.

Loved how Joo Yeo Jung made an effort to make Moon Dong Eun happy. It was cute when he came running to hug her.

I might be wrong, but the last scene hints at S3.

Slow

The first half of The Glory came at a very slow pace. I thought the second half would pick up but it continued to be slow as well.

At first the main FL came off as a stalker to me. The way she talked about her tormentor didn't sit well with me. Yeah, they really captured the most heinous bullying ever but I wish there was a stronger sense of revenge than there already was.

I thought the main FL was going to pick off her tormentors one by one but they got off truly light. The second FL who was the main bully didn't get enough 'just deserts' for me. I don't know what I was expecting but I wasn't expecting a slow mediocre burn.

I didn't feel any sympathy for the main FL because in my opinion if you can't at least pick up an object and use it then you deserve what you get. How on earth could these people who got bullied not stand up for themselves?? I was expecting them to rally together and do what needed to be done. Again, it didn't happen. Some of the tormentors got off light, some were helped and in the end two were forgotten.

I did however love Ms. Kang and her small justice in the end.

The last episode as usual was a let down for me. There was too much unnecessary stuff going on. I wanted to see the guy who killed that doctor get what he deserved but it barely happened.
The way it ended made me wonder if they're going to do another sequel. If they do I hope it'll be stronger than what I just watched.

Excellent Part 1, Unsatisfying part 2

Story: I feel like part 1 set us up really well and made it seem like there would be a long, well drawn out and elaborately satisfying revenge. Song Hye Kyo/Moon Dong Eun kept on hinting at what she would do, however; I don't feel like part 2 lived up to the hype of part 1.

Song Hye Kyo/Moon Dong Eun was absolutely tortured during her younger days, so I feel like the perpetrators did not receive the same amount of punishment. Even ruining their careers, public image is not effective because they could easily get it back with some money, influence and connections, which they all have. I feel like the perpetrators did not feel the same pain as Song Hye Kyo/Moon Dong Eun. Tbh, the deaths of some of the perpetrators meant that they could never fully repent and atone for their harm done to others, so I feel like that punishment was an easier way out for them.

Acting: This is by far Song Hye Kyo career best performance. She was utterly convincing in showing the deepest and darkest sides of someone who is solely living to exact revenge on her perpetrators. You root for her all the way, but also feel sorry for her that she was tortured and is now living her life just to bring about justice. She also showed great character growth and development by slowly allowing for feelings other than hatred and anger, as she slowly allowed for some love and light into her life. This gives a message that there is hope to live a good life and to look forward to the future, no matter what we have endured in the past. Brilliant acting from all the cast, the perpetrators acted superbly without shame, never holding back their terrible nature. The supporting cast really made you emotionally invested in the story and in seeing justice prevail.

Overall, a solid production that had some excellent moments. Unfortunately I finished the drama feeling so unsatisfied after seeing everything that the perpetrators put the FL and other victims through. Another unsatisfying end to a kdrama with so much potential.

The Glory – 10/10

This drama had me hooked from start to finish. The revenge? Absolutely satisfying. Every single thing was planned so well, and I loved how calculated and patient Dong-eun was. She didn’t just want revenge—she wanted justice, and she made sure they felt every bit of what they did to her. Slow, painful, and absolutely deserved.

Every character had depth, and even the villains were so well-written that I hated them with my whole soul. Yeon-jin? Pure evil, but an amazing character. Every time she got cornered, I felt pure satisfaction. And don’t even get me started on Jae Jun and Sa Ra—I was counting down the seconds until they got what was coming to them.

But what really stuck with me was Yeo Jung’s revenge. His pain was just as deep as Dong-eun’s, and the way he stayed by her side, waiting for his turn, was insane. He was sweet, kind, and gentle with her, but when it came to his own revenge, you could see how dark and broken he was. And I loved that. I just wish we got to see more. His revenge had so much buildup, and while it was satisfying, I needed another season to see him fully unleash all of that rage.

The cinematography, the OST, the acting— all top-tier. Song Hye-kyo and Lee Do-hyun were incredible. Their dynamic was so well done because it wasn’t just romance—it was two broken people choosing each other and walking through hell together.

I just wish we had gotten one more season to fully see Yeo-jung’s revenge play out. He deserved that closure just as much as Dong-eun. But even with that, this was one of the best revenge dramas ever.

Man, now I really want to put on some red lipstick, too.

As expected I didn't quite get all the details after having that forced break from part I. But I remembered enough to get into the story again. Thank god.

And I still love the whole story. The concept, the storytelling, everything was well planned, well written and played out almost perfectly. I loved the methods the FL used to get her revenge, the people she approached, the way she made them dance at her tune and how everything was slowly unraveled. The characters were well crafted and every actor/actress did a great job with their performing, because it made the story so much more enjoyable.

I don't know why but the husband got some special attention from me. I just wanted to hug him all the time. At the same time he had a strong demeanour which attracted me quite alot, and it only slowly crumbled piece by piece. I really liked his encounters with the FL and it's a pity, that he didn't get more screentime. The only thing I couldn't agree with was his last act. That just didn't fit his character and would have been better to be left out.

The ML was also some interesting character. Being the headsman of the FL worked well despite his bright personality most of the time. Though I do think that the actor could have put some more darkness into his ego, make him more branded. The one thing I couldn't comprehend at all was the love story. It felt forced, I didn't feel the passion. Every bit of intimacy felt out of place, even though I liked the concept of them supporting and using each other.

Definitely something worth re-watching.

Such a thrilling show,

This is my first ever review on this website and i highly recommend the glory to anybody who loves revenge, mystery and thriller. I was very hesitant about watching this show and i would forget my memory to watch it again. This show kept me hooked till the very end. I love how the villains's lives were also portraited as much as the main leads lives. Two of the villains specifically had amazing chemistry and i would love to see them again in another show. Also the romance was kept minimal which i appreciate very much. Song hye kyo and lim ji yeon killed here. I've become a huge fan of them.

However i must say this show was a bit confusing at times for example some scenes didnt give proper answers to the previous ones and some questions were kept unanswered. If you get scared easily and bullying/ violence is not your thing then i would say this show might not be for you but overall i think its a beautifully produced and directed show even though i think it would've been better if the main fl punished her bullies with her own hands.

If you want to watch this show or have been thinking about watching it then trust me go watch it rn you wont regret it at all. Its the perfect time to watch the glory now as its November and the glory goes so well wih this weather.

Thanks for reading my review. I hope this helped make up your mind. Have a wondeful day bye ♡

The Glory: 5/18/2024 ~ 5/30/2024

I know this show was separated into two parts but because of the time when I watched it I consider it as a whole since it does not have separate seasons. The story itself was something that I had never watched before so I went in not really knowing what to expect, minus the fact that people really liked the show. After watching it can see why since I also love the show as well. The FL was simply a badass and did not wavier when it came to take her revenge which is something I really like. It not only the fact that she didn’t wavier but stuck to what she planned to do, making sure they all felt the world around them crumble. The thing I loved however the most was the fact that while there was romance they did not try to make it a key point but instead a very minor point, and also it was not pointless. It wasn’t like she fell in love and took out her revenge separately but instead the ML stood by her side and helped take her revenge. Which as twisted as it sounds made their love story all the better even though it was barely shown. Now on to the heavier topic which is the bullying it talks about, it sad how realistic it can be in not only the fact it happens but how it get easily brushed aside with out anyone caring.

um dos melhores doramas do ano

fazia muito tempo que não assistia um drama coreano tão bem feito quanto esse. por ser da netflix, não botei muita expectativa quando comecei, apesar de ter ouvido falar muito bem e me interessado pelo plot. foi uma surpresa quando me vi assistindo 3, 4 episódios num piscar de olhos.

a trama é muito bem elaborada e envolvente. a história do dongeun, contada entre idas ao passado e presente foi uma ótima forma de interligar todos os pontos. praticamente não há furos no roteiro! além disso, mesmo não sendo o foco do drama, o romance entre a dongeun e yeojeong foi realmente incrível!

algo a se destacar é o final, que foi bem trabalhado e não ficou a "deus dará". já cansei de ver doramas com histórias ótimas, desenvolvimento incrível, um elenco maravilhoso, e chegar no último episódio com um final mal planejado que deu a parecer que foi feito às pressas. the glory passa justamente o contrário. todos os personagens tiveram um fim, e de bônus ainda tivemos o início da vingança do yeojeong.

enfim, definitivamente uma obra digna de um 10/10.
