Why am I just finding out that Yerin Ha's grandmother is the actress Son Sook from "The Glory"!? And her parents are stage actors, who met at drama school! Acting is literally in her blood! 🙉🙌🏿😍

You mean what is it a reference to?
Isn’t it the legacy of Confucianism on East Asian society? - so we see it in Korean dramas as well as Chinese dramas (like #LoveLikeTheGalaxy, #BestChoiceEver, #Reborn, #TheGlory, #LoveStoryinthe1970s, #PursuitofJade, etc - though these are all different)

“I've always been desperate and always worked hard. After my family and friends watched #TheGlory, they cried because they know how much I've worked for it. I always felt I should go the extra mile because I wasn't born with the talent like other actors. But I’m thankful my family understands me.”

Her agency, Artist Company, confirmed that #ImJiyeon is dating actor #LeeDohyun, whom she met while filming #TheGlory.
The couple keeps to themselves most of the time but always make sure to thank one another during awards season. They are very sweet with each other.

#TheGlory exploded, both domestically and globally, with the entire cast getting a wave of positive attention for their performances. People who don’t watch kdrama were hooked, the usual kdrama fans were obsessed, memes were made.

I only watched #TheGlory and it was one of my favorites last year. I started #Glory but it wasn’t for me (or wasn’t for me at that moment, I might pick it back up later)

7/10 for #TheGlory
🙂: Great female lead, explores important themes about women's plight, some scenes are genuinely fantastic...
☹️: ... but others have cheap superficial writing and no logic.

Oh no.
I couldn't help myself so I did check the soundtrack after all, and now I'm just sad. It is an original soundtrack. Worse, it's by the studio of my favourite Chinese composer, Jin Dazhou.
Why the fuck does it sound so bad then.

Ok so the way this scene is handled is very cheesy and not entirely sensical, but I do love the message of female unity against patriarchal adversity.
That's one of the main, if not the main theme of #TheGlory and it's absolutely a theme I can get behind.

I'll give this to the male lead: the more the show goes on, the less perfect he is. He makes mistakes. He gets surprised by others. I love that. Perfect is always boring.
(Right now he's having an internal panic attack because his wife is seducing another man for their plans.)

I know I haven't commented on the soundtrack so far, and that it is unlike me, but that's because it sounds so insanely generic and mismatched to the drama that I'm 90% sure it was not an original composition. It sounds like they bought stock music, and I won't waste my time on that.

At this point, she feels dead inside, which added to her already cold persona makes for a very interesting dynamic with the other characters. We don't get female leads like her often.

The whole Pei Da Fu plotline is pretty weak as a narrative because of how unrelated it is to our experience with the female lead's story. It's only important to the characters. I care about the consequences (who dies, who lives), but the 'why' and 'how' don't matter.

I think both had a big fan base. I personally preferred #Glory but I wouldnt say because it's better but because it fits more my personal taste and mood.
#TheGlory is has a more morbid darker atmosphere. #Glory has dark moments too but overall it felt brighter to me.

I’ll be the first to admit I’m not a Ming dynasty expert (my eras are Tang and Qing), but it feels really weird watching the male lead mourn in black in the flashback. Black is not a Chinese mourning colour.
But that’s so basic that I don’t know how anyone could get this detail wrong.

Also the male lead is being a bit pathetic in his attempts to woo the female lead, which is always A+ in my book, especially since she can see right through him.

It took 16 episodes for #TheGlory to enter romcom territory, and I gotta say, I'm enjoying the change of tone. It'll probably last two episodes max, but I'm welcoming some light-hearted shenanigans for a bit.
I'm not fully into this couple for a few reasons but I also don't mind them together.

It's honestly frustrating how great and terrible #TheGlory can be within the same episode. You'll have intricate wordplay and astute plotting in one scene, and then in the next one a mad horse gets thrown into a banquet hall because one girl is jealous she can't get the man she wants.

6 episodes in, #TheGlory is a mix of genuinely good and genuinely stupid. Some parts are excellent. Others really stretch the limits of how much ridicule I'm willing to gloss over in a drama.

The male lead keeps jumping to (correct) conclusions without any evidence. Like, he’s not wrong, but his thought process is impossible. It’s not even a matter of him being smart. The drama just gives him all the right answers without making him work for them.

#TheGlory and #TheDouble almost have the same plot, except that in The Double the female lead has a secret identity, and in The Glory she doesn't but she has a sexy lesbian assassin.

Oh. Oh.
Oh no.
(yes)
So the canon het couple is pretty much dead and buried in my eyes right now because the female lead had a super hot and tender "friendship" with her assassin "friend" and I'm now 1000% shipping them. Go lesbians.

I'm trying out #TheGlory (the cdrama, not the kdrama), and this better be good because Ming dynasty female fashion really sucked. (The society was extremely conservative and women could practically only wear shapeless blobs.)
