'The Glory' is a revenge/psychological drama led by actress Song Hye Kyo, reuniting with scriptwriter Kim Eun Sook for the first time since 'Descendants of the Sun'. The story follows the life of a woman named Moon Dong Eun, whose life is shattered and whose soul is torn to pieces during her youth, when she becomes a victim of horrific school bullying.

Actress Lim Ji Yeon will play the role of Park Yeon Jin, the assailant who bullied Moon Dong Eun in school. As an adult, her dark past threatens to tear down everything she has built up for herself, and she struggles with all her might to protect herself.

Next, Yeom Hye Ran will play the role of Kang Hyun Nam, a victim of domestic violence who becomes allies with Moon Dong Eun. On the other hand, Park Sung Hoon plays the role of Jeon Jae Joon, another assailant from Dong Eun's past, while Jung Sung Il takes on the role of Park Yeon Jin's husband. Finally, Lee Do Hyun plays a character shrouded in mystery, Joo Yeo Jung.
