The Netflix original 'The Glory' starring Song Hye-kyo is garnering great response, ranking first in 10 countries around the world just two days after its release.
According to Flix Patrol, a content ranking site on the 2nd, 'The Glory' ranked 5th in the global TV program category among Netflix TV shows as of the 1st. It ranked first in Korea, Indonesia, Malaysia, the Philippines, Singapore, Taiwan, Thailand, and Vietnam.
In particular, in Korea, it is more meaningful in that it beat 'The Youngest Son of a Chaebol Family' starring Song Joong-ki, which topped the domestic charts for 39 consecutive days.
'The Glory', which was released on December 30, is a drama that depicts the story of a woman whose soul was broken by violence in her childhood, who risks her entire life to carefully prepare for revenge, and the story of those who fall into the vortex. This is a work in which writers Kim Eun-sook and Song Hye-kyo reunite six years after ‘Descendants of the Sun.’
Song Hye-kyo is receiving great acclaim for her new acting transformation as Moon Dong-eun, who suffered severe school violence in high school and was brought to the brink of death, and who risked her life to plot revenge for a long time. With a blank expression, the eerie and sad, calm and angry emotions were completely conveyed without any dialogue.
Attention is focused on what kind of record 'The Glory' will set as it receives a great response from all over the world upon its release.
