'The Glory' Jeong Seong-il holds on to the opposite sex and explodes with fatherly love
In Part 2 of 'The Glory', which was released in its entirety on the 10th, Jeong Seong-il is attracting the attention of not only domestic fans but also overseas fans with his turbulent emotional performance, and is becoming a hot topic every day.
In Part 1 of 'The Glory', Seong-il Jeong takes on the role of Ha Do-yeong, who faces Pandora's box of his wife Park Yeon-jin (played by Lim Ji-yeon) and gets caught up in a vortex of revenge due to Moon Dong-eun (played by Song Hye-kyo), who has infiltrated his daily life for some time. By exuding restrained sexiness with his eyes, he created the irreplaceable character of 'Nice Dog XX', causing overindulgence.
Then, in Part 2 of ‘The Glory’, Jeong Seong-il showed off his unstoppable performance once again. Ha Do-young, who eventually opened Park Yeon-jin's Pandora's box, faced a vortex of uncontrollable emotions with her whole body. Yeon-jin's incredible past, her sense of betrayal that she has been deceived all this time, her anger at Jeon Jae-jun (played by Park Seong-hoon), who has come across as a threat to her beloved daughter Ye-sol (played by Oh Ji-yul), and all these emotions of falling into an endless abyss in a completely detailed manner. He surprised the viewers with his acting skills alone.
In Part 1 of 'The Glory', Seong-il Jeong portrayed Ha Do-young's character as always leisurely and with a gentleness that does not disturb any remaining superficiality, while in Part 2, even though her life has fallen to the bottom, she expresses a warm and strong paternal love that protects Ye-sol completely with love. A polar opposite character was created.
In particular, while all the characters in the play exploded with all their emotions as they ran toward the end of betrayal and anger, viewers saw scenes where Jeong Seong-il gritted his teeth and endured all kinds of emotions without letting go of the one remaining thread of reason in a series of confusion, destruction, and oblivion. It gave me a strange catharsis and made me fall in love with Jeong Seong-il even more.
Part 2 of the Netflix series 'The Glory', which has been garnering a lot of attention every day since its release, not only took first place in the world within three days of its release, but Jeong Seong-il, who plays Ha Do-yeong, was ranked 4th in the topicality category among drama casts, and Part 1 Expectations are high that Part 2 will continue to be a worldwide box office sensation.
‘The Glory’ Part 2, which is increasing immersion in the play with Jeong Seong-il’s turbulent emotional performance, is currently streaming on Netflix.
