Netflix has released the main trailer for The Glory, the year end’s most anticipated Korean series. Set to premiere on 30 December, The Glory tells the story of a woman who dedicated her life to planning a meticulous web of vengeance against the bullies and their accomplices who made her childhood a nightmare.The trailer begins with an ominous narration by Moon Dong-eun (portrayed by Song Hye-kyo) juxtaposing the wedding of Yeon-jin (Lim Ji-yeon), who is smiling brightly as she is congratulated by many wedding guests. As writer Kim Eun-sook put it, “I want The Glory to be remembered as a grim drama, like a breathtaking sword dance.” Lee Do-Hyun introduces Joo Yeo-jeong as “a character with many layers, though he comes off as a light and naïve person.” The actor focused on depicting his character’s soft, delicate side and the hidden darkness within. Director An Gil-ho praised Lee Do-Hyun for his complete immersion into his character and the great lengths he went to for Dong-eun, saying, “He beautifully embodied Yeo-jeong, who seemed to stand opposite Dong-eun at first but changes as the story unfolds.” 

Several of Korea’s biggest entertainment stars and creatives touched down in Singapore on 30 November to attend the Disney Content Showcase.
