Overhyped and Underwhelming
Episode 1 of The Glory actually had me interested and I thought this could be a really good thriller. But the rest of the show is such a disappointment. I quit after episode 5 because it’s painfully boring and completely wastes the potential it set up in the first episode. It drags so much that it’s hard to stay invested, and the story never delivers on the thriller promise.
The characters aren’t compelling, the pacing is all over the place, and instead of tension or excitement, you get endless slow scenes that add nothing to the story. Honestly, I felt like I was just staring at the screen, waiting for something to happen that never did.
Everyone seems to love this show, but I don’t. I found it overhyped, underwhelming, and frustrating. If you were expecting suspense or a gripping story, this is not it. Save yourself the time and skip this one. There are plenty of K-dramas that actually know how to keep you on the edge of your seat.
