Back in February 2022, we learned that Song Hye Kyo would be starring in The Glory. She confirmed the report on her Instagram account that she received the script for the show's first two episodes.

In August, fans posted on Twitter that production already wrapped up filming of the show.

The second part also had a total of eight episodes, which means The Glory has a total of 16 episodes.
