The Glory (Deo Geulloli) is a South Korean series directed by Gil Ho Ahn and starring Song Hye-kyo.
The second part of The Glory has arrived, new episodes of this new and surprising Netflix series, dark and well made. It deserves a chance, we can assure you of that much.
La Gloria is a tale of revenge: many years after being assaulted at school, a woman seeks to make the guilty pay for their crimes.
No lightness of plot, a series that seeks a balance between realism and a very cinematic formulation, with good editing, effects and very polished with regard to the shots and acting. This is not an “easy” series, it has an elaborate structure and has a whole aesthetic composition, an elaborate sense of rhythm, and knows how to narrate the fierce world of its protagonist between the sensitivity and her savage, vengeful spirit.
A truly enjoyable series to watch and, above all, very dark and psychological.
Give it a chance.
