Produced as a Netflix original, ‘The Glory’ has been defined as a revenge thriller drama.

She grows up with a dream of challenging the job of an architect but has to eventually take on being a teacher after the continued bullying against her. After dropping out, she becomes the homeroom teacher of her perpetrator’s child and plots her revenge.
Meanwhile, Lee Do Hyun will be playing Joo Yeo Jung, a key aspect of the vengeance that will be planned by Dong Eun. He is carefree and loving, belonging to a wealthy family and decides to not just be her “prince charming”.
