K-drama The Glory is about the comeback revenge of the female lead played by Song Hye Kyo but it could stand in for her own comeback revenge as well, on the critics and netizens who thought she didn’t have it in her (ever or now).

It’s a certified hit in both Netflix viewership and now also domestic South Korean buzz for The Glory, which did not have a terrestrial airing so there is no way to compare it to standard ratings.
