Netflix has dropped the official trailer for its upcoming K-drama, "The Glory," featuring Song Hye Kyo and Lee Do Hyun. Fans are about to see a different version of Song Joong Ki's ex-wife this time, as the clip reveals her dark side.
"The Glory" follows the story of a woman who turns soulless after experiencing bullying during her younger days. Song Hye Kyo's character, Dong Eun, has been through hell and back after being subjected to violence by her so-called peers.
Hence, the over-two-minute video shows Dong Eun is now ready to take her revenge as a cold, heartless, and vengeful woman. In the clip, she seems to purposely enter Yeon Jin's (Lim Ji Yeon) life again on her wedding day.
"Starting today, every day of your life will be hell," she said. "It will be horrific and triggering."
Dong Eun meets her bullies one after another after successfully running away following the evil deeds they did to her. Fans are about to meet Jae Joon (Park Sung Hoon), Sara (Kim Hieora), Hye Jung (Cha Joo Young), Myung Oh (Kim Gun Woo), and Do Young (Jung Sung Il), whose lives will be at the hands of Song Hye Kyo's role.
Lee Do Hyun will join the show as a mysterious Go player, along with Yeom Hye Ra as Hyun Nam, who will help Dong Eun in "The Glory."
The new Netflix series is a masterpiece by the writer Kim Eun Sook, who's behind the success of "Guardian: The Lonely and Great God" and "Mr. Sunshine," and the "Stranger" director An Gil Ho.
The show will be divided into two parts, and the part will have eight episodes, running 60 minutes each. The streaming giant described the series as a "drama, coupled with revenge, bullying, childhood trauma, and confrontation," per PhilStar.
Meanwhile, it will be the first time that fans are about to see Song Hye Kyo's dark side in a TV series. The 41-year-old has been known for her romantic comedy series, like "Full House," or heavy drama shows like "Encounter."
But this time, she's about to unleash her rare side, unveiling a different kind of acting. Hence, as this will be a vengeful drama like her ex-Song Joong Ki's "Reborn Rich," many will wait and see if it will match or surpass its success.
The JTBC show now dominates the most buzzworthy dramas and actors, remaining at the No. 1 spot for three consecutive weeks. Song Hye Kyo's "The Glory" will be out on December 30.
