Now that Part 2 is out, let’s clear up what’s happened so far. Dong-eun was there when So-hee fell to her death all those years ago, and saw that Yeon-jin’s name tag was in So-hee’s hand - making Yeon-jin the likely killer. While the coroner’s office deemed her death a suicide, her family still isn’t convinced, so her body has been kept in the morgue ever since. While his dad is recovering from a lily-induced asthma attack, Soo-han delivers him a roomful of get-well bouquets that exacerbate his asthma, killing him.Īnother one of Yeon-jin’s victims, Yoon So-hee died from a fall while still in high school. Who dies in The Glory?Īlong with Myeong-o, Kim Jong-mun - Dong-eun’s old homeroom teacher - dies from an asthma attack. After Dong-eun hand-delivers Jong-mun a bouquet of lilies as a supposed congratulations for his successful career, she subtly reveals that Jong-mun disbelieved and terrorized her in high school. Jong-mun’s son, Soo-han, shows up just in time to hear all this - and becomes outraged. By the end of Season 1, Part 1, it seems like Yeon-jin is his killer (or perhaps it’s one of several people who love wearing those fancy green heels). Myeong-o gets viciously murdered by an unknown assailant shortly after asking the full crew of bullies to meet him.

What happened to Myeong-o?ĭong-eun sends Myeong-o to get a murder confession out of Yeon-jin for killing her former bully victim, Yoon So-hee. A game of Go ends when neither player can make a move, then scores are tallied up by how many stones have been captured and how many are surrounding another player’s territory. Go is a repeated metaphor in The Glory, as Dong-eun zeroes in on Yeon-jin and everyone she’s close to - her goal is to take down Yeon-jin for good. It’s often compared to chess: The players use the free spaces on the board with the goal of surrounding their opponent’s pieces, eventually “capturing” the other player. Go is a two-player game that’s said to have originated in China over 4,000 years ago, and it’s still immensely popular across China, Japan and Korea. It works: Do-yeong becomes intrigued by Dong-eun, her talent for the game and her surprising outlook on life - which he initially has no idea is centered around systematically destroying his family.

While it seems Dong-eun might be interested in Yeo-jeong, her real reason for learning the game is to get closer to Do-yeong, who regularly visits a Go club nearby.

Dong-eun learns how to play Go from Yeo-jeong during a series of meetups at a park in Seoul.
