Song Hye-kyo Returns in New Romance Thriller "The Glory: Part 3"
The Hallyu queen teams up with writer Kim Eun-sook for another revenge masterpiece.
Song Hye-kyo is back, and she's angrier than ever. The actress has confirmed her return to Netflix in "The Glory: Part 3," reuniting with writer Kim Eun-sook for what is being described as the "definitive conclusion" to the revenge saga that captivated 124 million households in its first two seasons.
A Story That Refuses to End
When "The Glory" first premiered in December 2022, few predicted it would become one of the most-discussed Korean dramas in history. The story of Moon Dong-eun's meticulous revenge against her childhood bullies struck a nerve globally, sparking conversations about school violence, class privilege, and the limits of justice.
“Dong-eun's story isn't finished. There are threads we left deliberately unresolved, and Part 3 will pull them all together in ways audiences won't see coming.”
- Filming begins June 2026 in Seoul and Jeju Island
- Expected release: Early 2027
- Original cast confirmed to return
- New antagonist played by a top-tier Korean film actor (TBA)
- Kim Eun-sook writing all 8 episodes
The announcement has sent Netflix's stock up 3% in after-hours trading, with analysts projecting that "The Glory: Part 3" could become the platform's most-watched non-English series of all time — surpassing even the original's record-breaking numbers.
