🤐 SPOILER ALERT 🤐

Moon Dong-eun’s story of revenge against her high school bullies has finally come to a close. So how did The Glory Season 1, Part 2 end? Not only did the long-suffering Dong-eun ruin mean-girl extraordinaire Park Yeon-jin’s life, according to a plan that’s been unfolding over the past two decades — she also took down all of Yeon-jin’s accomplices. If you’re just wrapping up The Glory’s first season, let’s go over what went down.

Who’s in The Glory Season 1, Part 2? 

For a refresher on who’s who (and who bullied who) in the first season, take a look at this guide.

Who killed Son Myeong-o? 

In what sounds like a bizarre game of Clue, Yeon-jin bludgeons Myeong-o with a fancy bottle of alcohol in the dressing room at Jeon Jae-jun’s clothing boutique. Her motive? Myeong-o had evidence to prove Yeon-jin killed Yoon So-hee, the girl Yeon-jin bullied before she started picking on Dong-eun.

Just after Yeon-jin flees the scene, Kim Gyeong-ran — Jae-jun’s store assistant and one of Yeon-jin’s former bullying victims — hears his cries from the room nearby. When she walks in, Myeong-o grabs her and tells her to call for help. After a flashback reveals he sexually assaulted her in high school, Gyeong-ran hits him with the bottle and kills him. Fortunately, no one but Dong-eun knows Gyeong-ran was there, so once Dong-eun points the cops to every shred of evidence, Yeon-jin gets all the blame.

What happens to Lee Sa-ra, Choi Hye-jeong and Jae-jun? 

In a move orchestrated by Dong-eun, Sa-ra is publicly humiliated when her father’s congregation finds her high and masturbating in the church basement. The news goes public, which leads to Sa-ra’s arrest and the cops finding out about her father’s tax evasion. Sa-ra is bailed out by her rich parents, but not for long.

Hye-jeong, who attempts to help Sa-ra after her release, is incensed when Sa-ra shuts her down and belittles her. To get back at Sa-ra, Hye-jeong posts an explicit video of Sa-ra and Myeong-o that she found on Myeong-o’s tablet — which makes Sa-ra so irate she stabs Hye-jeong in the neck with a pencil at Myeong-o’s wake.

In the hospital, Hye-jeong finds out she may never get her voice back. This is just before Jae-jun — desperate to get custody of his and Yeon-jin’s biological daughter, Ha Ye-Sol — abandons her and deletes audio evidence implicating Yeon-jin in Myeong-o’s murder.

Later, Dong-eun gives Hye-jeong an idea: Hye-jeong can get back at Jae-jun by swapping his eye drops for chemicals that will blind him. She does, and Jae-jun — while driving with impaired vision — gets struck by a semi-truck. He makes it out alive only to be pushed off a building to his death by Yeon-jin’s husband (and Ye-Sol’s dad), Do-yeong. 

How does Lee Seok-jae die? 

Hyeon-nam’s abusive husband, Seok-jae, finds out his wife is secretly making money and wants in. He meets with Yeon-jin’s mom, Hong Yeong-ae, to bribe her with info about Yeon-jin’s murders. Instead, Yeong-ae hits and kills him with her car in order to make her passenger, corrupt police chief Shin Yeong-jun, complicit after his failed attempts to cover up So-hee and Myeong-o’s murders. Yeong-jun is later killed by one of his disgruntled accomplices. 

Freed from abuse and done with her mission to help Dong-eun, Hyeon-nam is more at peace knowing her daughter, Lee Sun-a, is safe and living with a host family in the US — thanks to Dong-eun. Months later, Dong-eun asks Hyeon-nam to assist with her and Yeo-jeong’s upcoming revenge plot. (More on that later.)

What happens to Yeon-jin?

Yeon-jin resigns from her job as weathercaster after word gets out (via So-hee’s mother) that she victimized So-hee in high school. After being convicted of murder — for setting So-hee on fire then pushing her off the school roof, and for killing Myeong-o — she’s sent to prison.

The only time Yeon-jin sees Do-yeong again is when he comes to prison with the divorce papers. Yeon-jin’s mom ends up in prison, too, for killing Seok-jae, but — having turned on Yeon-jin in hopes of avoiding a murder charge — refuses to speak to her. Given all that’s happened, Do-yeong divorces Yeon-jin and moves to the UK with Ye-sol.

How does The Glory Season 1 Part 2 end?

After fulfilling her revenge, Dong-eun is finally able to laugh and enjoy herself — briefly — alongside Yeo-jeong, her self-proclaimed executioner who’s worked tirelessly on her vendetta agenda. But Yeo-jeong is inconsolable when Dong-eun leaves him yet again, this time with plans to kill herself. Luckily, Yeo-jeong’s mom shows up and pleads with her not to do it: If Dong-eun takes her own life, Yeo-jeong’s will end, too — she’s given the grief-stricken plastic surgeon a reason to live. 

Six months later, Dong-eun arrives at Yeo-jeong’s house. The two reconcile and embrace (finally!), then plan their revenge against Kang Yeong-cheon, the unrepentant killer of Yeo-jeong’s father. Dong-eun and Yeo-jeong both get jobs at the prison Yeong-cheon’s been transferred to — Dong-eun as a teacher, and Yeo-jeong as a doctor. Now, Dong-eun will become Yeo-jeong’s executioner. The series ends with them, at long last, admitting they love each other. 

Will there be a second season of The Glory? 

While the Part 2 finale has already set up another round of vengeance, a second season hasn’t been confirmed.
