Netflix Users Call This Korean Revenge Drama ‘Insanely Good’ — Even Better Than Squid Game?

Netflix viewers cannot seem to get enough of The Glory, a Korean drama that has managed to grip audiences with its slow-building revenge story. After the global success of Squid Game, the hunt for another Korean series with depth and intensity brought many to this 16-episode gem. It did not come with much noise at first, but those who watched it walked away surprised at how deeply it pulled them in.

What is Netflix’s The Glory About?

The Glory follows Moon Dong-eun, a former high school student who carries the weight of years of brutal bullying. Her scars are more than physical as it shaped her entire adult life. Over time, she carefully builds a plan to face those who once tormented her, and after becoming a schoolteacher, she positions herself close to her bullies’ children, setting the stage for a quiet but powerful unraveling of her enemies.

The drama moves with precision as it does not hurry like others, and gives importance to every single scene. According to Unilad, some viewers did not expect much at first, especially those new to K-dramas, but found themselves completely pulled into Dong-eun’s world.
